(Kliment, The Acid Alkaline Balance Diet).&amp;quot; &amp;nbsp;And, regarding sugars, isn't it true that cancer patients have been cured by eating juiced and whole raw fruits (mostly sugar) and vegetables (many of which have a high sugar content)? &amp;nbsp;And as enzymes are a hot topic today, isn't it true that raw honey is &amp;quot;...the best source of the starch-digesting enzyme amylase? (Kliment). &amp;nbsp;Healthy nutrition is such a minefield of contradictions and exceptions and specific applications that sweeping generalizations are probably best avoided. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

This reminds me of Jeffrey Smith's &amp;quot;You're Eating What?&amp;quot; lecture on genetically modified fruit flies. Frankly, there is a Frankensteinian wish to want to live so long if it means manipulating the DNA unnaturally. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Let's find the bioenergetic techniques that do not amount to black magic, as the Duke of Brunswick (Grand Master Mason) warned some 200 years ago, regarding electromagnetism, etc.&lt;/p&gt;

My mom who is not on any medication and a very healthy 73 &amp;nbsp;year old who would like to stay that way, and has the money to pay out-of-pocket and not use her insurance, was refused an appointment by your clinic last year. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am saddened by the fact that older people are not being able to be treated as a person but denied quality care by all the non-traditional clinics ( you are not the only one who has denied her). &amp;nbsp;She and all the other 'older' persons who would also like access to the same caring treatment as younger ones are forced to go to doctors who have a nose ring with a chain that attaches to the drug companies. They have only the choice to get diagnosed by brainwashed doctors and then go home and try to figure out what to do other than take the prescriptions that the doctor will always write out. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Oh well - you and yours will be at that age soon- and so will I. &amp;nbsp;I hope in future someone will begin to treat older persons who have taken care of themselves all their young life and would like to continue to do so. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is entirely possible that we ALREADY have people living very low key lives among us, who have either unique genetic qualities or trained life styles that allow them to live very long life spans, even into hundreds of years. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you were a human variant, a Homo Eternae, you would make very careful not to alert the ephemerals around you of your presence, since you could very well end up in a government lab, or killed from pure envy. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It would require:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1. &amp;nbsp; living in situations where no one knew your true history,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2. &amp;nbsp; a certain level of nomadic moving, so no one would notice that you do not seem to age much, or at all,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3. &amp;nbsp; teaming up with other long term livers who have the same thing to lose if they are found.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; A gated community in this time would be the best way to pull this game off, since you could have the same home, and just change work from time to time. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It is also possible that we could end up with a new species of very short lived humans, which mature very quickly, reproduce early, and die off in their forties and fifties, due to constant overeating, processed foods, exposure to flouride and clorine in the water, and chronic obesity. &amp;nbsp;Homo Ephemerae may well have been born in this generation and be waddling around Walmart. &amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;we are like viruses. There are many types of viruses out there. If we inhibit a cell and do not reproduce and explore other cells, other viruses might. This might be a good chance to become stronger. Only the strong will survive. The Universe is still young. Look at history, weaker civilisations die out just like that. We humans need to relate to something in order to understand life better. Philosophy revolves around understanding history.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In order to survive, we need technology. It would be a race among intelligent races across the Universe. We will definitely need to live longer and to reproduce. There is no question about it. We will need to push our technology further and faster. Or else our civilisation is lost like the dinosaur age.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This requires a very deep understanding of life and death. Think about it folks.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;With climate change, crops being hit by adverse weather, food shortages and the available supplies of fresh water.........how can all those 1,000 years olds survive on a planet that would be saturated with people.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Add to that scenerio.......an approaching ice age that will force people to the southern hemispshere and make it even more of a crowded place to be............what would happen then.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The next world war may well be over drinking water and nothing else.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We have already had a go at it, good old Methusala, the oldest man ever, made 969 years, but that was before the worldwide flood, in a perfect &amp;quot;greenhouse&amp;quot; environment. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There was no rain then, that's why they thought Noah was nuts. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; After the planet was knocked off course and the atmosphere and firmament caved in, we were subject to unpredictable seasons and dangerous UV rays which dramatically altered our life span, as proved by checking out the scriptural record of the use by dates of those after good old Meth.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our creator, in fact, said 120 years would be it, now we are lucky, because of our breaking of the natural health laws he put in place, to make 50.... shame , shame, shame.&lt;/p&gt;

The diet God gave to Adam and Eve is the best diet for us today (barring mineral depletion and other nutrient deficiencies in the soil). &amp;nbsp;I'm sure the apricot kernal qualifies as one of the &amp;quot;meats&amp;quot; by God; available in most asian groceries in raw, dry form, it's got a strange honey nut flavour.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Bible has much to say about the benefits of vegetarianism. Adam lived nearly a thousand years on a pure vegetarian diet. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.&amp;quot; [Genesis 1:29]&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After the introduction of &amp;quot;clean&amp;quot; meats at the time of the flood, man's lifespan was immediately cut by a third. After just a few generations of meat eating, people were dying at age 200. And just a few generations later Moses wrote, &amp;quot;The days of our years are threescore years and ten...&amp;quot; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ok, I'm done with my soapbox. &amp;nbsp;Next. &lt;/p&gt;
