SUMMARY:

This document is one that I have made reference, a number

of times, to a few of you about. It is the original paper that

discusses the adverse effects of sugar on the leukocytic index.

As some of you may remember, you are generally not succeptable

to viral attack or tumor growth if your immune rsponse is kept at

high levels (more specifically, the strength and count of your NK

cells). However, when exposed to sugars, the immune state is

weakened considerably. Is it any wonder that we suffer from so

many forms of cancer, and viral infections when the typical american

diet is so high in refined, processed, carbohydrates? Most americans

repeatedly supress their immune systems at regular intervals daily!

Sugar and Immunity

_________________________________________________________________

Leukocytic Index proves the devastating effect of refined carbohydrates on

immunity.

Many people have been asking for a mechanism for the depressed

immunity seen in people who eat sugar and other refined carbohydrates.

Many are known but the Leukocytic Index is an especially helpful one for

many people to begin to take this health risk seriously.

More than 20 years ago a large study was published about the effects

of refined carbohydrates (of which sweets are the worst) on the leukocytic

index. Our white cells are the most important factors in protecting us

from invading organisms. The leukocytic index is a measure of how many

organisms one white blood cell (WBC) can eat in an hour. Therefore an

index of 10 means that that one WBC ate 10 organisms in THAT hour.

The average LI (leukocytic index) in the USA--and remember, average

is not as healthy as one can get--is about 13.9. Within 15 minutes, after

an individual eats the amount of refined carbohydrates normally ingested

in the evening meal --about 100 grams, the leukocytic index drops to about

1.4. Depending on the genetic susceptibility to this problem, it might be

better or worse--this is just an average. Diabetics ALWAYS have a LI of

less than 2.

That means: the average person loses more than 90% of their immune

function within 15 minutes of indulging in this poisonous substance. This

deficiency lasts for about 2 hours after the stress occurs.

What is routinely given intravenously during surgery? Glucose water!

When Ringer's Lactate (which has no sugar) is used instead, the incidence

of post operative infection is reduced by two thirds. The only reason I

can think of for this kind of persistent ignorance is that there is no

money in changing the thinking of operative routine. There is a lot more

money in treating the infections that are created by the Allopathic

Monopoly.

Since this has been known for more than 20 years, don't you think it

is time for this information to get out to the public?
