Nutritional Deficiencies, Free Radicals Often Root Cause Of Common Diseases

Almost all cures that exist today cure bacteria and virus infection. Almost all cures in the future will cure bacteria and virus infection. Thanks to these cures, million of people throughout the world have been cured of an infection that would have killed them. But in other countries, each year millions of people lose their lives to nutritional deficiencies and free radicals causing deterioration leading to heart disease, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, and other diseases. What all these diseases have in common is that they are all different forms of degenerative disease. According to the USDA,

“Oxidative stress has been associated with the development of many chronic diseases, including cancer and heart disease. The human body has developed a very delicate system, although not 100% effective, to eliminate free radicals from the body. … Oxidative stress results from free radicals produced during the normal metabolism of oxygen as well as from external sources. “

In the U.S., long-term nutritional deficiencies and free radicals cause eight times more deaths than all other causes of death combined. Literally hundreds of thousands of people each year in the U.S. die of a degenerative disease. Degenerative diseases are not curable, but for most people degenerative disease is preventable, for others at least stoppable, and some degenerative diseases for many people are reversible.

Is It Curable or Is It Reversible?

How can a degenerative disease be reversible but not curable? If the root cause of an illness is a harmful organism or harmful chemical then the root cause is an adversary. When the adversary can be destroyed or removed by using a substance or method a finite number of times, then the substance or method used is a cure and the damage to the body the organism or chemical caused usually is healed (reversed) by the body. Cures don’t heal the body. Cures stop damage by an adversary from occurring, the body heals the damage caused by the adversary.

Degenerative disease is a disease of deterioration, not a disease caused by an adversary. The root cause of degenerative disease is the body being unable to heal from normal wear and tear due to long term lack of maintenance of the body. “Long term lack of maintenance of the body” means long term lack of nutrients and long term lack of protection from free radicals. “Degenerative disease is reversible” means that for many, depending on how significant the deterioration damage is, the body can heal the deterioration damage, if the body is given the nutrients and protection from free radicals it needs to heal. Of course, it’s a lot easier to prevent degenerative disease than to stop and reverse degenerative disease.

Another way to look at degenerative disease is to look at dehydration. Dehydration is not thought of as degenerative disease but dehydration is a form of deterioration damage, and you can easily die from dehydration. You can’t cure dehydration because nothing will ever remove the need for water throughout life. Just as you can’t cure dehydration, you can’t cure degenerative disease because nothing will ever remove the need for nutrition throughout life nor remove the need for protection from free radicals throughout life. The solution for preventing dehydration and healing from dehydration is a continuous source of water and drink enough water, or eat plenty foods high in water, or some of both. The solution for preventing degenerative disease is getting sufficient nutrition throughout life and avoiding food and chemicals that are harmful and increase nutritional needs. Once degenerative disease has developed, sufficient nutrition is needed to stop the progression of degenerative disease and for some reverse degenerative disease.

Degenerative disease is often referred to as chronic disease. A number of common degenerative diseases are called “lifestyle” diseases. According to the Centers For Disease Control and Prevention (the CDC), “Chronic diseases are among the most prevalent, costly, and preventable of all health problems.”

How Nutritionally Starved Is The U.S.?

In the U.S. diseases caused by long-term nutritional and antioxidant deficiencies cause 8 times more deaths than all other causes of death combined. In other words, 8 times more people lose their lives to a disease they more than likely could have prevented than to all other causes of death combined. Below you’ll find a chart of the 10 most common causes of death in the U.S. by gender.

10 Most Common Causes Of Death (

There are, of course, substances in common foods and non foods that require more nutrition than normal for the body to process and other foods and non foods that alter body chemistry both of which contribute to development of degenerative disease. The body’s processing of excess fat in the diet creates excess free radicals, soda pushes body pH down, trans fat lowers HDL, coffee is a diuretic keeping the body low on water, and liquid sugar causes excess wear and tear on controls of blood sugar level. These substances aren’t really adversaries but are nutritional antagonists that should be avoided.
