so I’m gonna talk to you today about the
secrets of healthy living and something
for science for natural hygiene the
science of health so let’s start with
with my story you know so here I don’t
know if you can see this photograph but
this is what I look like about 20 years
ago okay and it is a common joke my
friend Rashmi okay so how many months
pregnant are you you know when is the
delivery date so it got so bad you know
when I used to go for friends or getting
married and I was just at the wedding
edge to get tired just candy magic you
know and I said this can’t go on and
then I was going to get married and then
I said I have to lose weight I tried
everything I tried dieting but you know
I need to eat and if I don’t eat I get
irritable I can’t work I can’t study I
try to exercise you know those of you I
might have seen me many years ago
jogging on marine drive with dumbbells
in my hand but at the end of it I used
to have a can of coke and then that was
it so nothing really worked I 100 kgs
plus and then a friend of mine took pity
on me and gave me a book called fit for
life of the gift which I started reading
and it said a new way of eating I said
okay let’s try this see if it works and
it did magically I lost 1 kg in the
first week and 1 kg the next week and
soon I had lost in a couple of years I
lost 25 kgs I was a lot healthier fitter
I said hey this is looks like something
good so then I started studying a little
bit more about it I attended courses I
read books I went to conferences I met
the gurus and I learned something called
natural hygiene the science of health
you know all the conventions medicine
etc a low pass for whomever this the
experts on disease they know how to
treat sick people they know how to
handle the disease but the science of
health how to stay healthy that’s
something which people haven’t paid much
attention to and there are many things
which we can do which are simple things
you know some things we do unknowingly
we don’t know these things are harmful
for a help so we do them without knowing
actually how harmful they are and some
things we have we know they’re good but
we don’t pay so much attention so we
don’t do those either so I am going to
tell you little secrets they’re quite
simple things actually and they
definitely help you it should you choose
to follow them but of course what I want
to say is I am NOT saying do this or
don’t do this ok it’s all very
individual each one of us is unique and
unique individual
what works for me may not work for you
the only way to find out is to try give
it a 30 day trial see how it works see
if it suits you and then have it make
sense then you know go ahead for it so
if you want to be held at you what are
the things you need to take care of as
for natural hygiene there are 25
different things which you can have what
you have to pay attention to there are
stuff like you know this physical stuff
mental emotional spiritual and obviously
I have got 83 ran out of nothing three
minutes are already gone so I don’t
think I can cover all the 25 different
things but I shall focus on one major
thing which is you know the food that we
eat and as the bulk of my talk I am
going to talk about food why is food so
important you know a little story I went
and bought a Mercedes vehicle you know a
c-class s-class top-of-the-line he paid
a fortune for it and after one week he
went back to the workshop and he is not
working properly you know when I started
it doesn’t start it makes a noise it
sputters this is white smoke coming out
it’s not a smooth Drive so the guy said
this is crazy this is a brand new
top-of-the-line automobile how can it
give her problems he asked a lot of
questions when everything seemed fine
he’s finally asked him now what is the
fuel you use he says kerosene so he says
oh that’s the problem so he simply
removed stop using care of students are
using you know the 93 octane petrol or
whatever and everything was fine so the
fuel that we put into a car we pay so
much attention to that you know we want
the highest grade fuel but what about
the few liquid into our bodies do you
know in a human in a human lifetime how
much food goes to our that is a system
25 tonnes 25 tons of food is being eaten
by us and that’s the kind of stuff is
going side so it naturally makes sense
that these things make a significant
impact on your health so what kind of
food and there’s so much conflicting
advice some people tell you this
Mediterranean diet Paleo diet South
Beach diet this diet had bad
hunter-gatherer diet you don’t know how
do you figure it out so well natural
hygiene kind of simplifies things and
stop and in today’s talk talk about
five things you know the foxy five the
five things that a little bit dodgy I’ll
tell you about them and then you can
decide whether you wanna eat them or how
much of them you want to eat how often
do you want to eat them and then then
the fabulous five things which you
should be having and this is a friendly
fire is not food but other stuffs that
is ready to help so let’s start with a
foxy five first one is about animal
products non-vegetarian food meat
chicken fish egg works so you know we
all know we all have a temporary chicken
or not all but many of us can do a
chicken and maybe a Kentucky Fried
Chicken in our you know Big Mac or Rogan
Josh or whatever the steaks is learn we
all know it’s not very good for health
what is it really bad is it really
harmful well it turns out that actually
it is so there have been studies done
and I don’t have the time to go into it
here I recommend you to go to a website
from the PCRM the Physicians Committee
for Responsible medicine and there are
links regular consumption and a lot of
consumption of animal products are
linked to now hold your breath kidney
disease heart disease even cancer
now why kidney disease animal perks is
very high in protein when you digest
protein the byproduct is nitrogen and
it’s a lot of load on the kidneys to get
rid of the nitrogen
heywhy heart disease animal products are
full of saturated fat that encourages
the body to make more cholesterol clog
your arteries and you in to have end up
having you know heart disease and what
about cancer well the first thing with
hormones meat is got a lot of hormones
that causes you know our body to make
more hormones breast cancer prostate
cancer another important thing is milk
has no fiber zero fiber sorry meat I’ve
got zero fiber fiber is extremely
important to help provide referred in
the diet she was a clean and perfectly
functioning digestive tract and if you
have a lot of meat which has very little
fiber the problem is that you don’t get
enough of fiber and then you end up
stuff like colon cancer so these are the
problems which you you know end up
having with meat and and of course the
other thing you know the two chemicals
they call hate CAS
heterocyclic amines and PAH always
aromatic hydrocarbons you don’t have to
remember the names but you know this
look for you can go to the National
Institute website when you cook meat at
very high temperatures these kind of
chemicals are released and they get into
your body and they create all these
problems so what I’m trying to say is I
don’t mean that you should you know drop
all this immediately and go vegetarian
over weekend but just think that these
are the increased risks from conduction
of this product so how often and how
much you want to have you don’t have to
go all the way but every little step
that you take which kind of you know
reduces your conception of these
products will definitely help your help
and it’s not just about your health it’s
about the health of environment so for
example do you know that we all know
about the global warming problem even
though a certain step Trump may not
quite believe in that so but the
greenhouse gases almost twelve to
fourteen percent of greenhouse gases are
caused by animal agriculture and under
trend to 14 percent it’s caused by
deforestation you know when you want to
do farming when you want to do you know
dairy and you want grow you know cattle
for beef you have to clear a lot of
forests and that reduces the trees and
that reduces the amount of oxygen being
being produced on the table – have been
taken out of the system so a lot of this
in fact more than cars and automobiles
animal agriculture is a cause for
greenhouse gases and the other thing is
water you’ll be surprised to know that
to produce 1kg of meat and 1 kg of wheat
it takes 10 times as much water to
produce the meat and even economically
if you feed an animal 10 kg of way of
grain you get 1 kg of meat it’s much
more economic to eat the drain radically
and stuff feed it to the animal and the
animal converts into all kinds of stuff
including poo and you’re going to really
get one Kesey out of it so from that
perspective also it’s a it’s a problem
so from the personal health perspective
from the health perspective of an
environment you know I would strongly
urge you all to look at this aspect and
then decide for yourself now how much
and how often you want to consume but of
course the one question that you know I
get asked is oh but what about my
protein you know where I make my protein
from if I don’t meet well actually you
know
lord of plant products which give
protein in fact even rice and potatoes
has got protein and mother’s milk you
know which is the food on which we
subsist for the first six months of a
life exclusively is supposed to as only
one percent of protein and there are law
of atomic apples look at this guy his
name is Patrick Bowman iam he’s one of
the world’s strongest men I mean he’s I
saw a video visit and check it out on
YouTube so 500 pounds you just picked up
and he walk like this as if he was going
for a walk in the path literally you
know so extreme when I was 12 strongest
man and he’s 100% you know meat free so
this is strength if you look at stamina
you can google for Scott juror he’s one
of the world’s top ultra marathon
runners he’s run to 64 kilometers and
won all kinds of things or if you look
at speed car load is one of the major
prints sprinters he had he was also one
this is kind of a diet so what I’m
saying is it’s possible it’s not
impossible you know so this is one part
I won’t talk to you about so this is
about you know the animal products the
first or the foxy five second one is
something which you may be cut off you
know this is our milk I mean all of us
grew up or milk that right mother said
oh wait I have to hide your milk before
going to school you know stash to do
pure glass full of those kind of things
you know so the point is that is it
really good for health I mean I mean it
must be right everybody drink said you
know it must be good for health
but is it really first thing I wanna
tell you about milk is milk is
species-specific
you know cow makes milk for the calf a
dog make a cat mix for the kitten
donkey for the donkey or the elephant
for Al baby elephant milk is
species-specific why because first of
all the antibodies that are there is
that milk to protect the child against
the disease is for that particular
species so mothers milk products the
baby from diseases which human beings
have and no animal brings milk of
another species except one animal that
you can guess who that is you know
second thing is something called the age
of winning all these mammals they drink
milk up to a particular age and then it
is stopped
why that’s because
sugars or lactose registered either
enzyme called lactase and that
disappears from the human intestine once
you grow up in fact many people don’t
have like T’s at all in fact let me show
you the study three out of four Indians
have got no milk problems they can’t
digest fill and then you have all kinds
of stomach problems acidity good as it
reflects irritable bowel syndrome you
know and this is a study I mean I’ve
given the link there those who are
interested can look at it later
and the funny thing is in the in Europe
50 grams of lactose is what they test on
to see if you are intolerant or not in
India at 25 gram does it Rick we can’t
even handle 25 tonnes of lactose so this
is a serious problem so actually if you
go to see we as a human beings are
having milk of another species beyond
the age when we’re supposed to be having
milk so what we’re doing is actually
something like this I don’t know if you
can see the image is this natural it
can’t be I mean if you argue with me
about meat eating okay maybe you’re a
scheme oh you have to eat fish or maybe
you’re a hunter uni there is would be
some logic some some reason for having
occasional meat products but as far as
Barry’s concerned there is absolutely no
logic and it’s a separate TED talk how
we started drinking milk maybe they’ll
invite meet again next year we can talk
about that but this is not natural this
is not supposed to be having so what
happens to us when we have such kind of
food which is not meant for us milk is
high in fat high in protein I’m and you
have your fiber again so we end up
getting heart disease we end up getting
diabetes we end up getting let’s draw we
end up getting cancer even again I’m not
making this up you can go to the website
of the Physicians Committee for
Responsible medicine PCRM and check it
out and there are actual medical studies
done you know which prove the link
increase risk of all these diseases
bring to conduct show these products you
know and okay fine you say fine great
this is all very good you know but you
know our country our culture our history
Krishna is to drink milk you know and
then what about all the aisle ways and
everything yeah that’s fine you know but
that milk was very different than will
we get today in those days you had a cow
who’s fed on grass the calf was along
with it the calf fed first
and what of a little bit was extra
may be used for medicinal purposes or
small amounts fresh and what we have
today is completely different
you know you you don’t know the milk
that you’re getting where it is comes
from it’s not come from one cow there
may be hundreds of thousands of small
farmers who take the milk one give it to
a big berry it’s all mixed into a vat
and then it comes to you you don’t know
where it’s come from
and you don’t know what is in it this is
a study done in Hyderabad about three
years ago you know I’m not sure we can
read it but I just we got part of it
they try to see what are the
adulterations done to milk sucrose and
skim milk powder were present in 22% at
80% the samples
urea utilizers and salt were present in
60% 26% in 82 percent of the samples
formal in detergents and hydrogen
peroxide was present in 32 percent 44%
32 percent of the milk samples this is
the kind of stuff that’s getting into
the loop that we are drinking this is
not what Krishna drank this is not what
the I using people were recommending as
you know medicine and it’s not just
about these kind of adulteration the
most common adapted in India in milk is
guess what water why if you want to make
more of it right water is cheap and what
water do you think they put into the
milk do you think it is reverse osmosis
treated boiled filtered water no sir if
there are any pesticides in their water
but any heavy metals everything gets
into that we are having you besides that
you know there are things in order to
increase the milk production you know
the farmers put out of hormones oxytocin
into the into the car and I won’t even
get there you know as to how it is
actually done and as a result of this
what happens is that the cow often get
something called mastitis which is a
swollen udder if you saw the previous
the previous slide you know see this
other this maybe exaggeration but they
really have this problem and now because
they have this problem what happens is
they put a lot of anti politics into the
into the feed and all of this gets into
the cow’s milk you know and this is the
you know she of Spain this is the kind
of stuff that you find inside your
bottle of milk you know and in India to
this
in Haryana where the National Dairy
dozen security I have given the link you
can have a look it’s not so bad but you
know it is a problem and this is causing
antibiotic resistance in us the drugs we
take no longer work and then you know we
have to have stronger drogyn superbugs
and all this kind of problems so for all
these reasons you know it’s something
which we really have to look very very
carefully at and the final part I talked
about the power talking about is about
the ethical concerns you know milk is
something which a mammal produces to
nourish its young right and it only
produces milk when it is delivered the
baby and the baby has to be nursed how
do you think a cow trees look all the
time it makes it pregnant every year how
do they make a pregnant you think it
happens naturally more than 30% of the
cows in India are artificially
inseminated and I don’t even want to go
or how they do it if I showed you the
videos I’d probably get you know thrown
out of here you know so it’s not a very
friendly practice the cows at the age of
2 they start making them impregnating
them and they do it for over 4 or 5
years after that the cows spent you know
you imagine what would happen to any
female if you impregnated every year and
after that what happens they don’t want
to do anything the car they the car was
lifespans 20 years after five years of
giving milk it can’t give anymore
it’s expensive to feed it so just give
it away to somebody at a low price and
then what happens to it either abandoned
left to starve or this send first water
all the gorak shep you find about
reading about these days you know this
is what happens that’s why India you
know is the largest producer of milk but
it’s one of the largest exporters of
beef where does it beef come from from
these kind of cows who are no longer
doing you know milk and the other thing
is the carbs you know within two to
three who is heated after birth the calf
is separated from the mother you can
imagine how much trauma that causes to
the mother and it’s the common myths
will substitute or allow the subtle
little bit and that’s it and very often
the male cast is of no use at all so
what happens to it the same thing right
there’s a lot of cruelty going on you
know lot of cruelty in fact some people
say that it’s more cool you know you
rather kill the cow and eat the beef at
least one time you no offense but if
you’re keeping it alive and torturing it
literally you know for all its for all
its life it’s a much much worse thing so
you know all this is polymer dairy and
of course the standard question is what
about my calcium where am I going to get
calcium from if I don’t drink milk
well actually little yes milk has got a
good source of calcium
but along with calcium it’s got a lot of
protein and the protein what happens is
you have calcium in your bones and you
have catch-up in your blood and the body
has to be thinner you know we can’t
become acidic protein the addiction is
create sort of acidity in the body and
you need to the body needs to withdraw
calcium from the bones to as utilize the
acid and this calcium goes out in the
urine so there lot of studies have done
will show that you know the more milk
you drank the more bones you broke
because it didn’t really give you
protection again you go to the PCR on
website you’ll find out information
about that and there are a lot of plant
products which gives protein teal’c’s
leafy greens a lot of the lot of them
and the other important thing I want
tell you about is that you know it’s not
just a calcium we have there are Kashyap
thieves
for example caffeine sodium all these
things reach calcium from our body so if
you stop these things you don’t need too
much cash here anymore
and what builds calcium is exercise
sunshine all this is very very important
so that’s all about you know my two
favorite topics like you talked about
that is meat and milk I talked to you
about a few other things also ok I’m
sorry this is go ahead go back ok the
next thing I want top table so the Fabul
the c5 I said meat and animal
products we did you talk about you know
refined product need a lot of that white
bread white rice white sugar refined
food is something in which the outer
fiber of the nutrients have all been
taken off it’s just empty calories it
doesn’t really serve any purpose I would
strongly recommend you reduce it and
none of these products and then you come
to processed food
what is processed food anything that
comes in a can jar packet bottle
anything that has a label on it what’s
wrong with this well first of all it’s
full of refined food
they don’t put whole wheat in it they
put you know white white flour second of
all if you read the table very carefully
you very often find the word
hydrogenated hydrogenated you know oil
hydrogenated flour whatever
hydrogenated means the process by which
the bubble hydrogen bubbles through fat
to make it solid at room temperature and
this creates something called trans fats
which are again linked to heart disease
cancer so if you find a label with
hydrogenated return later on the other
way the point is that the advice I would
give is if something has a label don’t
have it at all no it’s not really
something which is good for you so
processed food so the last is of course
deep fried foods you know deep fried
foods well yeah everybody has what a
power yeah french fries or samosas I
think they were samosas in the morning
today okay you not have like she said I
had the bananas what’s wrong with these
things you know well again there’s a
study done at Harvard by the nutrition
department of Howard they found that
even consumption of fried food once a
week increases the result of increases
the risk of heart disease and cancer if
you have a daily salat worse and why
let’s make potato this is the most
common thing we fry right again you can
study you know there is a chemical
called acrylamide which gets released
when you deep fried potatoes and the
last part is the oil when you reuse oil
you fry it once then you remove it and
we fry it again the oil gets degraded
what are the oil gets into the food and
gets into your body and you how you help
problems so if you must eat fried food
you know either at home where you’re
sure that the oil is fresh and it is you
know it’s not being reused so these are
the five food the foxy 5 which we like
to you know avoid or at least you
consider all these things and then
decide how much you want to consume now
I’ll go on to the fabulous five these
are five products which you should have
a lot more of and this is all common
sense it’s not really a secret but
what’s the secret is that how much good
it does for you the first is the fresh
fruit you know full of natural simple
carbohydrates vitamins minerals vitamins
everything you can imagine we don’t eat
enough of fresh fruits the
recommendation is Oh – five servings per
day one serving is the water size of one
apple so if you have something for
breakfast and something for a snack
you know so four or five servings a day
you are pretty good on fruits the next
fabulous five member is vegetables you
know so excellent again all the
nutrients that flows have got and – no
sugar even healthier the only problem is
in India we tend to over cook our
vegetables in fact to tell you the truth
human beings are the only creature on
the girl unearths ban on them god’s
creation on the planet
it sets fire to its food before eating
and talking about cooking right when you
cook they’re setting fire to the food
when you set fire to something the
nutrient value drops dramatically so do
try to have raw salads you know in both
your meals start off with a salad and
then go on to or whatever the folio
eating so of course you got to be
careful the salad is properly washed it
set rather while you don’t eat it from
the road but as long as it’s just wash
in water you know you’re pretty good to
go the next superfood is whole grains so
you know who brown rice whole wheat joe
are variety right there are so many of
them these are powerhouses they have
your meteor food needs of carbohydrate
they’ve got protein and they’ve got
vitamins they’ve got members they’ve got
all this kind of stuff so you should
definitely have whole grains instead of
you know I’m having a white flour and
the last two groups last two of the
fabulous five are you know necks and
seeds for proteins so the excellent
source of proteins don’t overeat you
know have maybe a seven or eight pieces
of almonds are good enough for a day and
sprouts but he has probs the sprouting
process increases the nutrient value
many fold so these are the fabulous five
so then I think that’s done as far as
food is concerned so I’ll talk to you
about but in life is not just about food
now when I started on this journey I
used to drive my wife’s crazy because in
the morning I think what I’m having for
breakfast and at lunch I say what I’m
gonna have a lunch and then lunch I’m
planning for dinner so my whole life
began to revolve around food which is
not a very smart thing to do there’s
more things to do in life just learn
what it is it be able to do do it and
then forget about it and once in a while
you know if you have a samosa it’s not
going to kill you once in a while you
have a french fries I’m going to kill
you the problem is that the once in a
while oh it’s once in a while I have a
samosa once in a while I have french
fries once in a while I have a chicken
once in a while I have can of coke which
has got nine tablespoons of sugar in it
and once in a while this and once and
then it just goes on and on and then
then then you know you’re you’re you’re
in trouble it’s like you know you have
an angle you know you study in geometry
when you start off the deviation is less
but as you go more and more you know end
up at a completely different place than
when you wanted to be so apart from food
I can head there are 25 other factors
but I don’t have time to cover all of
them I just talked to you about four or
five of them before I end my talk the
first of course is water we just won’t
drink enough water I mean we drink coke
or we drink you know maybe other stuff
in fact I do my whole talk you know at
many places I’ve done the talk and
people listen to me very carefully at
the end of it they ask maybe one
question okay Peter but what about
alcohol alcohol allowed on your system
or not that is so but what it is
something is need to drink and how do
you know is it eight glasses it can
glasses it’s there’s no rule like that
it depends on each of us sedentary
lifestyle somebody working out in the
field but the thing to examine is urine
if the quantity of urine is copious it’s
colorless you’re doing good if it’s
scanty if it’s yellow you need to drink
more water you won’t wait for thirst
thirst is an indication we already go on
past the limit that is water and then in
sunshine
you know sunshine in order to absorb
even if you are drinking tons of milk
you need vitamin D to absorb the calcium
and the natural source of vitamin D is
the Sun you need to have at least 15 to
20 minutes of exposure of sunlight daily
where say face their arms and legs maybe
wear shorts or whatever tank tops or
whatever it is and get out of the Sun
maybe not at 12 o’clock and is blazing
hot but in the morning it’s 9 o’clock
said whatever or the evening we can
manage I would encourage all of you
whenever you go for your next medical
test you get a vitamin D test done and
you will find you know I would drink bet
that wasn’t half way even 70% of all of
us including me are deficient in vitamin
D because we live you know in enclosed
spaces we sit in our interpose air
conditioned house we get into a car you
get into our office where and even we
around those we have covered up like how
I am not one inch of skin exposed he put
sunscreen on whatever is exposed not
getting enough of no vitamin D so that’s
sunshine
and then exercise I don’t need to tell
you I’m sure all of you are very
conscious about that but exercise helped
thank stamina flexibility balance all
these things exercise then exercise 30
to 45 minutes your choice you do running
cardio yoga whatever doesn’t make a
difference the next thing is rest sleep
as a population most of other
sleep-deprived and whenever we have
anything the first thing we cut is sleep
over you want to watch a movie
cut asleep you want to go to their
friends have a party sleep is good you
want to study sleep is not want to work
late work late nights or on the midnight
oil keep this card sleep is when the
body region awaits recharges itself
that’s all the repair work it’s critical
for health you know I myself try to
sleep seven to eight I go to sleep
before my son and before my wife goes
away
so I want my sleepin so that and the
last thing I wanna talk about is stress
stress is meant tremendous you know
cause of lot of diseases and there’s
nothing much we can do about that but
you know meditation may be something
it’s nothing very complicated you don’t
need to go to what 10-day we passed in
the course of though you could do that
if you like
there are simple practices of say I’m
sure you can find somebody you can teach
you it hardly takes five or ten minutes
a day and you know it helps to bring
your stress levels down so that’s the
thing so to conclude my talk I’ll talk
to you about the action points so the
foxy five you know be careful about
animal product consumption dairy product
consumption refined food which is
processed foods and deep fried foods the
fabulous five fresh fruits vegetable
salads whole grains nuts seeds and
sprouts and the friendly five drinking
of water get deal exercise 15 to 20 mins
of sunshine eight hours of sleep per day
and meditation so that’s all I had to
say so you know this simple stuff and
you know I started doing this at age of
30 and for the last twenty years you
know I have not really I think I must
have gone to the doctor two or three
times I don’t fall sick I don’t get cost
pool fever
forget about diabetes and you know in
fact we are part of an NGO
help people reverse diabetes and reverse
high blood pressure and reverse heart
disease by following this is this thing
I’m talking about you know the doctors
would go out of business probably you
know but it’s not going to happen
because people don’t you know when I go
for talks and I tell people people say
no I want to do tell me
eat this tell me where this magnet tell
me do this do that
don’t tell me to remove stuff from my
diet you know what I am going telling
people is don’t do they remove all this
stuff you know that’s not a very popular
thing but if you do it you know it’s
what will really add years to your life
and add life to yours when we go ahead
and buy now you must be seeing all these
devices sell life insurance that’s not a
real life insurance there’s death
insurance this is life insurance okay
thank you very much
[Applause]
secrets of healthy living and something
for science for natural hygiene the
science of health so let’s start with
with my story you know so here I don’t
know if you can see this photograph but
this is what I look like about 20 years
ago okay and it is a common joke my
friend Rashmi okay so how many months
pregnant are you you know when is the
delivery date so it got so bad you know
when I used to go for friends or getting
married and I was just at the wedding
edge to get tired just candy magic you
know and I said this can’t go on and
then I was going to get married and then
I said I have to lose weight I tried
everything I tried dieting but you know
I need to eat and if I don’t eat I get
irritable I can’t work I can’t study I
try to exercise you know those of you I
might have seen me many years ago
jogging on marine drive with dumbbells
in my hand but at the end of it I used
to have a can of coke and then that was
it so nothing really worked I 100 kgs
plus and then a friend of mine took pity
on me and gave me a book called fit for
life of the gift which I started reading
and it said a new way of eating I said
okay let’s try this see if it works and
it did magically I lost 1 kg in the
first week and 1 kg the next week and
soon I had lost in a couple of years I
lost 25 kgs I was a lot healthier fitter
I said hey this is looks like something
good so then I started studying a little
bit more about it I attended courses I
read books I went to conferences I met
the gurus and I learned something called
natural hygiene the science of health
you know all the conventions medicine
etc a low pass for whomever this the
experts on disease they know how to
treat sick people they know how to
handle the disease but the science of
health how to stay healthy that’s
something which people haven’t paid much
attention to and there are many things
which we can do which are simple things
you know some things we do unknowingly
we don’t know these things are harmful
for a help so we do them without knowing
actually how harmful they are and some
things we have we know they’re good but
we don’t pay so much attention so we
don’t do those either so I am going to
tell you little secrets they’re quite
simple things actually and they
definitely help you it should you choose
to follow them but of course what I want
to say is I am NOT saying do this or
don’t do this ok it’s all very
individual each one of us is unique and
unique individual
what works for me may not work for you
the only way to find out is to try give
it a 30 day trial see how it works see
if it suits you and then have it make
sense then you know go ahead for it so
if you want to be held at you what are
the things you need to take care of as
for natural hygiene there are 25
different things which you can have what
you have to pay attention to there are
stuff like you know this physical stuff
mental emotional spiritual and obviously
I have got 83 ran out of nothing three
minutes are already gone so I don’t
think I can cover all the 25 different
things but I shall focus on one major
thing which is you know the food that we
eat and as the bulk of my talk I am
going to talk about food why is food so
important you know a little story I went
and bought a Mercedes vehicle you know a
c-class s-class top-of-the-line he paid
a fortune for it and after one week he
went back to the workshop and he is not
working properly you know when I started
it doesn’t start it makes a noise it
sputters this is white smoke coming out
it’s not a smooth Drive so the guy said
this is crazy this is a brand new
top-of-the-line automobile how can it
give her problems he asked a lot of
questions when everything seemed fine
he’s finally asked him now what is the
fuel you use he says kerosene so he says
oh that’s the problem so he simply
removed stop using care of students are
using you know the 93 octane petrol or
whatever and everything was fine so the
fuel that we put into a car we pay so
much attention to that you know we want
the highest grade fuel but what about
the few liquid into our bodies do you
know in a human in a human lifetime how
much food goes to our that is a system
25 tonnes 25 tons of food is being eaten
by us and that’s the kind of stuff is
going side so it naturally makes sense
that these things make a significant
impact on your health so what kind of
food and there’s so much conflicting
advice some people tell you this
Mediterranean diet Paleo diet South
Beach diet this diet had bad
hunter-gatherer diet you don’t know how
do you figure it out so well natural
hygiene kind of simplifies things and
stop and in today’s talk talk about
five things you know the foxy five the
five things that a little bit dodgy I’ll
tell you about them and then you can
decide whether you wanna eat them or how
much of them you want to eat how often
do you want to eat them and then then
the fabulous five things which you
should be having and this is a friendly
fire is not food but other stuffs that
is ready to help so let’s start with a
foxy five first one is about animal
products non-vegetarian food meat
chicken fish egg works so you know we
all know we all have a temporary chicken
or not all but many of us can do a
chicken and maybe a Kentucky Fried
Chicken in our you know Big Mac or Rogan
Josh or whatever the steaks is learn we
all know it’s not very good for health
what is it really bad is it really
harmful well it turns out that actually
it is so there have been studies done
and I don’t have the time to go into it
here I recommend you to go to a website
from the PCRM the Physicians Committee
for Responsible medicine and there are
links regular consumption and a lot of
consumption of animal products are
linked to now hold your breath kidney
disease heart disease even cancer
now why kidney disease animal perks is
very high in protein when you digest
protein the byproduct is nitrogen and
it’s a lot of load on the kidneys to get
rid of the nitrogen
heywhy heart disease animal products are
full of saturated fat that encourages
the body to make more cholesterol clog
your arteries and you in to have end up
having you know heart disease and what
about cancer well the first thing with
hormones meat is got a lot of hormones
that causes you know our body to make
more hormones breast cancer prostate
cancer another important thing is milk
has no fiber zero fiber sorry meat I’ve
got zero fiber fiber is extremely
important to help provide referred in
the diet she was a clean and perfectly
functioning digestive tract and if you
have a lot of meat which has very little
fiber the problem is that you don’t get
enough of fiber and then you end up
stuff like colon cancer so these are the
problems which you you know end up
having with meat and and of course the
other thing you know the two chemicals
they call hate CAS
heterocyclic amines and PAH always
aromatic hydrocarbons you don’t have to
remember the names but you know this
look for you can go to the National
Institute website when you cook meat at
very high temperatures these kind of
chemicals are released and they get into
your body and they create all these
problems so what I’m trying to say is I
don’t mean that you should you know drop
all this immediately and go vegetarian
over weekend but just think that these
are the increased risks from conduction
of this product so how often and how
much you want to have you don’t have to
go all the way but every little step
that you take which kind of you know
reduces your conception of these
products will definitely help your help
and it’s not just about your health it’s
about the health of environment so for
example do you know that we all know
about the global warming problem even
though a certain step Trump may not
quite believe in that so but the
greenhouse gases almost twelve to
fourteen percent of greenhouse gases are
caused by animal agriculture and under
trend to 14 percent it’s caused by
deforestation you know when you want to
do farming when you want to do you know
dairy and you want grow you know cattle
for beef you have to clear a lot of
forests and that reduces the trees and
that reduces the amount of oxygen being
being produced on the table – have been
taken out of the system so a lot of this
in fact more than cars and automobiles
animal agriculture is a cause for
greenhouse gases and the other thing is
water you’ll be surprised to know that
to produce 1kg of meat and 1 kg of wheat
it takes 10 times as much water to
produce the meat and even economically
if you feed an animal 10 kg of way of
grain you get 1 kg of meat it’s much
more economic to eat the drain radically
and stuff feed it to the animal and the
animal converts into all kinds of stuff
including poo and you’re going to really
get one Kesey out of it so from that
perspective also it’s a it’s a problem
so from the personal health perspective
from the health perspective of an
environment you know I would strongly
urge you all to look at this aspect and
then decide for yourself now how much
and how often you want to consume but of
course the one question that you know I
get asked is oh but what about my
protein you know where I make my protein
from if I don’t meet well actually you
know
lord of plant products which give
protein in fact even rice and potatoes
has got protein and mother’s milk you
know which is the food on which we
subsist for the first six months of a
life exclusively is supposed to as only
one percent of protein and there are law
of atomic apples look at this guy his
name is Patrick Bowman iam he’s one of
the world’s strongest men I mean he’s I
saw a video visit and check it out on
YouTube so 500 pounds you just picked up
and he walk like this as if he was going
for a walk in the path literally you
know so extreme when I was 12 strongest
man and he’s 100% you know meat free so
this is strength if you look at stamina
you can google for Scott juror he’s one
of the world’s top ultra marathon
runners he’s run to 64 kilometers and
won all kinds of things or if you look
at speed car load is one of the major
prints sprinters he had he was also one
this is kind of a diet so what I’m
saying is it’s possible it’s not
impossible you know so this is one part
I won’t talk to you about so this is
about you know the animal products the
first or the foxy five second one is
something which you may be cut off you
know this is our milk I mean all of us
grew up or milk that right mother said
oh wait I have to hide your milk before
going to school you know stash to do
pure glass full of those kind of things
you know so the point is that is it
really good for health I mean I mean it
must be right everybody drink said you
know it must be good for health
but is it really first thing I wanna
tell you about milk is milk is
species-specific
you know cow makes milk for the calf a
dog make a cat mix for the kitten
donkey for the donkey or the elephant
for Al baby elephant milk is
species-specific why because first of
all the antibodies that are there is
that milk to protect the child against
the disease is for that particular
species so mothers milk products the
baby from diseases which human beings
have and no animal brings milk of
another species except one animal that
you can guess who that is you know
second thing is something called the age
of winning all these mammals they drink
milk up to a particular age and then it
is stopped
why that’s because
sugars or lactose registered either
enzyme called lactase and that
disappears from the human intestine once
you grow up in fact many people don’t
have like T’s at all in fact let me show
you the study three out of four Indians
have got no milk problems they can’t
digest fill and then you have all kinds
of stomach problems acidity good as it
reflects irritable bowel syndrome you
know and this is a study I mean I’ve
given the link there those who are
interested can look at it later
and the funny thing is in the in Europe
50 grams of lactose is what they test on
to see if you are intolerant or not in
India at 25 gram does it Rick we can’t
even handle 25 tonnes of lactose so this
is a serious problem so actually if you
go to see we as a human beings are
having milk of another species beyond
the age when we’re supposed to be having
milk so what we’re doing is actually
something like this I don’t know if you
can see the image is this natural it
can’t be I mean if you argue with me
about meat eating okay maybe you’re a
scheme oh you have to eat fish or maybe
you’re a hunter uni there is would be
some logic some some reason for having
occasional meat products but as far as
Barry’s concerned there is absolutely no
logic and it’s a separate TED talk how
we started drinking milk maybe they’ll
invite meet again next year we can talk
about that but this is not natural this
is not supposed to be having so what
happens to us when we have such kind of
food which is not meant for us milk is
high in fat high in protein I’m and you
have your fiber again so we end up
getting heart disease we end up getting
diabetes we end up getting let’s draw we
end up getting cancer even again I’m not
making this up you can go to the website
of the Physicians Committee for
Responsible medicine PCRM and check it
out and there are actual medical studies
done you know which prove the link
increase risk of all these diseases
bring to conduct show these products you
know and okay fine you say fine great
this is all very good you know but you
know our country our culture our history
Krishna is to drink milk you know and
then what about all the aisle ways and
everything yeah that’s fine you know but
that milk was very different than will
we get today in those days you had a cow
who’s fed on grass the calf was along
with it the calf fed first
and what of a little bit was extra
may be used for medicinal purposes or
small amounts fresh and what we have
today is completely different
you know you you don’t know the milk
that you’re getting where it is comes
from it’s not come from one cow there
may be hundreds of thousands of small
farmers who take the milk one give it to
a big berry it’s all mixed into a vat
and then it comes to you you don’t know
where it’s come from
and you don’t know what is in it this is
a study done in Hyderabad about three
years ago you know I’m not sure we can
read it but I just we got part of it
they try to see what are the
adulterations done to milk sucrose and
skim milk powder were present in 22% at
80% the samples
urea utilizers and salt were present in
60% 26% in 82 percent of the samples
formal in detergents and hydrogen
peroxide was present in 32 percent 44%
32 percent of the milk samples this is
the kind of stuff that’s getting into
the loop that we are drinking this is
not what Krishna drank this is not what
the I using people were recommending as
you know medicine and it’s not just
about these kind of adulteration the
most common adapted in India in milk is
guess what water why if you want to make
more of it right water is cheap and what
water do you think they put into the
milk do you think it is reverse osmosis
treated boiled filtered water no sir if
there are any pesticides in their water
but any heavy metals everything gets
into that we are having you besides that
you know there are things in order to
increase the milk production you know
the farmers put out of hormones oxytocin
into the into the car and I won’t even
get there you know as to how it is
actually done and as a result of this
what happens is that the cow often get
something called mastitis which is a
swollen udder if you saw the previous
the previous slide you know see this
other this maybe exaggeration but they
really have this problem and now because
they have this problem what happens is
they put a lot of anti politics into the
into the feed and all of this gets into
the cow’s milk you know and this is the
you know she of Spain this is the kind
of stuff that you find inside your
bottle of milk you know and in India to
this
in Haryana where the National Dairy
dozen security I have given the link you
can have a look it’s not so bad but you
know it is a problem and this is causing
antibiotic resistance in us the drugs we
take no longer work and then you know we
have to have stronger drogyn superbugs
and all this kind of problems so for all
these reasons you know it’s something
which we really have to look very very
carefully at and the final part I talked
about the power talking about is about
the ethical concerns you know milk is
something which a mammal produces to
nourish its young right and it only
produces milk when it is delivered the
baby and the baby has to be nursed how
do you think a cow trees look all the
time it makes it pregnant every year how
do they make a pregnant you think it
happens naturally more than 30% of the
cows in India are artificially
inseminated and I don’t even want to go
or how they do it if I showed you the
videos I’d probably get you know thrown
out of here you know so it’s not a very
friendly practice the cows at the age of
2 they start making them impregnating
them and they do it for over 4 or 5
years after that the cows spent you know
you imagine what would happen to any
female if you impregnated every year and
after that what happens they don’t want
to do anything the car they the car was
lifespans 20 years after five years of
giving milk it can’t give anymore
it’s expensive to feed it so just give
it away to somebody at a low price and
then what happens to it either abandoned
left to starve or this send first water
all the gorak shep you find about
reading about these days you know this
is what happens that’s why India you
know is the largest producer of milk but
it’s one of the largest exporters of
beef where does it beef come from from
these kind of cows who are no longer
doing you know milk and the other thing
is the carbs you know within two to
three who is heated after birth the calf
is separated from the mother you can
imagine how much trauma that causes to
the mother and it’s the common myths
will substitute or allow the subtle
little bit and that’s it and very often
the male cast is of no use at all so
what happens to it the same thing right
there’s a lot of cruelty going on you
know lot of cruelty in fact some people
say that it’s more cool you know you
rather kill the cow and eat the beef at
least one time you no offense but if
you’re keeping it alive and torturing it
literally you know for all its for all
its life it’s a much much worse thing so
you know all this is polymer dairy and
of course the standard question is what
about my calcium where am I going to get
calcium from if I don’t drink milk
well actually little yes milk has got a
good source of calcium
but along with calcium it’s got a lot of
protein and the protein what happens is
you have calcium in your bones and you
have catch-up in your blood and the body
has to be thinner you know we can’t
become acidic protein the addiction is
create sort of acidity in the body and
you need to the body needs to withdraw
calcium from the bones to as utilize the
acid and this calcium goes out in the
urine so there lot of studies have done
will show that you know the more milk
you drank the more bones you broke
because it didn’t really give you
protection again you go to the PCR on
website you’ll find out information
about that and there are a lot of plant
products which gives protein teal’c’s
leafy greens a lot of the lot of them
and the other important thing I want
tell you about is that you know it’s not
just a calcium we have there are Kashyap
thieves
for example caffeine sodium all these
things reach calcium from our body so if
you stop these things you don’t need too
much cash here anymore
and what builds calcium is exercise
sunshine all this is very very important
so that’s all about you know my two
favorite topics like you talked about
that is meat and milk I talked to you
about a few other things also ok I’m
sorry this is go ahead go back ok the
next thing I want top table so the Fabul
the c5 I said meat and animal
products we did you talk about you know
refined product need a lot of that white
bread white rice white sugar refined
food is something in which the outer
fiber of the nutrients have all been
taken off it’s just empty calories it
doesn’t really serve any purpose I would
strongly recommend you reduce it and
none of these products and then you come
to processed food
what is processed food anything that
comes in a can jar packet bottle
anything that has a label on it what’s
wrong with this well first of all it’s
full of refined food
they don’t put whole wheat in it they
put you know white white flour second of
all if you read the table very carefully
you very often find the word
hydrogenated hydrogenated you know oil
hydrogenated flour whatever
hydrogenated means the process by which
the bubble hydrogen bubbles through fat
to make it solid at room temperature and
this creates something called trans fats
which are again linked to heart disease
cancer so if you find a label with
hydrogenated return later on the other
way the point is that the advice I would
give is if something has a label don’t
have it at all no it’s not really
something which is good for you so
processed food so the last is of course
deep fried foods you know deep fried
foods well yeah everybody has what a
power yeah french fries or samosas I
think they were samosas in the morning
today okay you not have like she said I
had the bananas what’s wrong with these
things you know well again there’s a
study done at Harvard by the nutrition
department of Howard they found that
even consumption of fried food once a
week increases the result of increases
the risk of heart disease and cancer if
you have a daily salat worse and why
let’s make potato this is the most
common thing we fry right again you can
study you know there is a chemical
called acrylamide which gets released
when you deep fried potatoes and the
last part is the oil when you reuse oil
you fry it once then you remove it and
we fry it again the oil gets degraded
what are the oil gets into the food and
gets into your body and you how you help
problems so if you must eat fried food
you know either at home where you’re
sure that the oil is fresh and it is you
know it’s not being reused so these are
the five food the foxy 5 which we like
to you know avoid or at least you
consider all these things and then
decide how much you want to consume now
I’ll go on to the fabulous five these
are five products which you should have
a lot more of and this is all common
sense it’s not really a secret but
what’s the secret is that how much good
it does for you the first is the fresh
fruit you know full of natural simple
carbohydrates vitamins minerals vitamins
everything you can imagine we don’t eat
enough of fresh fruits the
recommendation is Oh – five servings per
day one serving is the water size of one
apple so if you have something for
breakfast and something for a snack
you know so four or five servings a day
you are pretty good on fruits the next
fabulous five member is vegetables you
know so excellent again all the
nutrients that flows have got and – no
sugar even healthier the only problem is
in India we tend to over cook our
vegetables in fact to tell you the truth
human beings are the only creature on
the girl unearths ban on them god’s
creation on the planet
it sets fire to its food before eating
and talking about cooking right when you
cook they’re setting fire to the food
when you set fire to something the
nutrient value drops dramatically so do
try to have raw salads you know in both
your meals start off with a salad and
then go on to or whatever the folio
eating so of course you got to be
careful the salad is properly washed it
set rather while you don’t eat it from
the road but as long as it’s just wash
in water you know you’re pretty good to
go the next superfood is whole grains so
you know who brown rice whole wheat joe
are variety right there are so many of
them these are powerhouses they have
your meteor food needs of carbohydrate
they’ve got protein and they’ve got
vitamins they’ve got members they’ve got
all this kind of stuff so you should
definitely have whole grains instead of
you know I’m having a white flour and
the last two groups last two of the
fabulous five are you know necks and
seeds for proteins so the excellent
source of proteins don’t overeat you
know have maybe a seven or eight pieces
of almonds are good enough for a day and
sprouts but he has probs the sprouting
process increases the nutrient value
many fold so these are the fabulous five
so then I think that’s done as far as
food is concerned so I’ll talk to you
about but in life is not just about food
now when I started on this journey I
used to drive my wife’s crazy because in
the morning I think what I’m having for
breakfast and at lunch I say what I’m
gonna have a lunch and then lunch I’m
planning for dinner so my whole life
began to revolve around food which is
not a very smart thing to do there’s
more things to do in life just learn
what it is it be able to do do it and
then forget about it and once in a while
you know if you have a samosa it’s not
going to kill you once in a while you
have a french fries I’m going to kill
you the problem is that the once in a
while oh it’s once in a while I have a
samosa once in a while I have french
fries once in a while I have a chicken
once in a while I have can of coke which
has got nine tablespoons of sugar in it
and once in a while this and once and
then it just goes on and on and then
then then you know you’re you’re you’re
in trouble it’s like you know you have
an angle you know you study in geometry
when you start off the deviation is less
but as you go more and more you know end
up at a completely different place than
when you wanted to be so apart from food
I can head there are 25 other factors
but I don’t have time to cover all of
them I just talked to you about four or
five of them before I end my talk the
first of course is water we just won’t
drink enough water I mean we drink coke
or we drink you know maybe other stuff
in fact I do my whole talk you know at
many places I’ve done the talk and
people listen to me very carefully at
the end of it they ask maybe one
question okay Peter but what about
alcohol alcohol allowed on your system
or not that is so but what it is
something is need to drink and how do
you know is it eight glasses it can
glasses it’s there’s no rule like that
it depends on each of us sedentary
lifestyle somebody working out in the
field but the thing to examine is urine
if the quantity of urine is copious it’s
colorless you’re doing good if it’s
scanty if it’s yellow you need to drink
more water you won’t wait for thirst
thirst is an indication we already go on
past the limit that is water and then in
sunshine
you know sunshine in order to absorb
even if you are drinking tons of milk
you need vitamin D to absorb the calcium
and the natural source of vitamin D is
the Sun you need to have at least 15 to
20 minutes of exposure of sunlight daily
where say face their arms and legs maybe
wear shorts or whatever tank tops or
whatever it is and get out of the Sun
maybe not at 12 o’clock and is blazing
hot but in the morning it’s 9 o’clock
said whatever or the evening we can
manage I would encourage all of you
whenever you go for your next medical
test you get a vitamin D test done and
you will find you know I would drink bet
that wasn’t half way even 70% of all of
us including me are deficient in vitamin
D because we live you know in enclosed
spaces we sit in our interpose air
conditioned house we get into a car you
get into our office where and even we
around those we have covered up like how
I am not one inch of skin exposed he put
sunscreen on whatever is exposed not
getting enough of no vitamin D so that’s
sunshine
and then exercise I don’t need to tell
you I’m sure all of you are very
conscious about that but exercise helped
thank stamina flexibility balance all
these things exercise then exercise 30
to 45 minutes your choice you do running
cardio yoga whatever doesn’t make a
difference the next thing is rest sleep
as a population most of other
sleep-deprived and whenever we have
anything the first thing we cut is sleep
over you want to watch a movie
cut asleep you want to go to their
friends have a party sleep is good you
want to study sleep is not want to work
late work late nights or on the midnight
oil keep this card sleep is when the
body region awaits recharges itself
that’s all the repair work it’s critical
for health you know I myself try to
sleep seven to eight I go to sleep
before my son and before my wife goes
away
so I want my sleepin so that and the
last thing I wanna talk about is stress
stress is meant tremendous you know
cause of lot of diseases and there’s
nothing much we can do about that but
you know meditation may be something
it’s nothing very complicated you don’t
need to go to what 10-day we passed in
the course of though you could do that
if you like
there are simple practices of say I’m
sure you can find somebody you can teach
you it hardly takes five or ten minutes
a day and you know it helps to bring
your stress levels down so that’s the
thing so to conclude my talk I’ll talk
to you about the action points so the
foxy five you know be careful about
animal product consumption dairy product
consumption refined food which is
processed foods and deep fried foods the
fabulous five fresh fruits vegetable
salads whole grains nuts seeds and
sprouts and the friendly five drinking
of water get deal exercise 15 to 20 mins
of sunshine eight hours of sleep per day

fact we are part of an NGO

high blood pressure and reverse heart
disease by following this is this thing
I’m talking about you know the doctors
would go out of business probably you
know but it’s not going to happen
because people don’t you know when I go
for talks and I tell people people say

don’t tell me to remove stuff from my
diet you know what I am going telling
people is don’t do they remove all this
stuff you know that’s not a very popular
thing but if you do it you know it’s
what will really add years to your life
