|Daily servings Harvard study finds perfect blend of fruits and vegetables to lower risk of death.|
Once again I’m going to give you this Harvard study and then after it give you my personal take on this data.
|While few people would contest that fruit and vegetables are good for you, there can be some confusion over how many servings of them you’re supposed to eat in a given day. The USDA advises people to eat anywhere from five to nine a day, with international standards similarly converging around five or six, though some go much higher. Luckily, a new study that reviewed the health and diets of 100,000 people and combined it with meta-studies of the available data puts the debate over how many servings a day you should get to rest.|
The researchers followed 66,719 women from the Nurses’ Health Study and 42,016 men from the Health Professionals Follow-up Study to see how their diet affected their long-term health and mortality rates. Over the three decades of follow-ups, a clear, non-linear relationship developed between how many servings of fruit and vegetables people consumed per day and their risk of death. That overall risk reached its lowest point at five servings a day—two of fruit and three of vegetables—with further increases having no additional benefit. What type of vegetable was consumed mattered as well, with starchy veggies like corn and potatoes having fewer benefits than other types. Fruit juices were also less helpful than just eating the fruit. On the other hand, leafy greens, carrots, citrus fruits, and berries all demonstrated health benefits. The net benefits of this compared to only getting two servings a day (roughly what the typical American is eating) are notable. It averages to about a 13 percent lower risk of death from all causes, a 12 percent lower risk of death from cardiovascular disease, a 10 percent lower risk of death from cancer, and a 35 percent lower risk of death from respiratory disease.
To equate the amount of fruits and vegetables you eat with death is giving far more power to fruits and vegetables than they deserve. It’s a chronic problem in academia and natural science to give far more power to THE THING than to the conscious party interacting with the thing or eating the thing. It’s a type of materialism. It’s very telling about the lack of respect and inhumanity that has been cultivated in institutions against human power. We’re not all five years old. Some of us do know how to turn media off, cultivate our intelligence, take care of our muscles, and become co-creators with the world around us.
But what level of humans have abused their power on the planet? The elite, the globalists, the trillionaires engaging in maximum control over ALL life on the surface of the planet for their own ends, the animals, plants and humans be damned. We are collateral damage to them. But in my opinion they are ignorant of the power of collective humanity in cooperation with the earth to run this place. We have not been in charge properly so we have to prove ourselves given a chance.
The first test will be to not give food more power over our bodies than our focused Minds. It’s actually absurd to suggest that ingesting a tomato or a carrot has more power over a humans intention to live or die than the human themselves. The ancients would be appalled. The inherent power of the human mind, embedded into our DNA by our ancestors is superhuman. That latent superhuman power has been programmed out of us with mind control and brain washing by the elite, particularly by the mainstream media. It’s going to end soon.
Human beings have tremendous conscious power to focus and direct our minds (thoughts and feelings) with inanimate objects. Most things around us only become animate when a human or another animal interacts with them. A glass of water will continue to sit on the table until I pick it up. A tasty herb or plant will sit rooted in the ground until a hungry mammal comes along and eats it. We are higher on the food chain. Plants don’t eat us, we eat them. Some carnivorous fish can and will eat us
