As all know, I’s SJS. As a Ga. Tech Ch E we studied that if the arrow going into the box was longer than the arrow coming out, then the box had to get bigger. That works for simple chemical reactions, but not complex ones. Folks get fat because they eat more than they expend? Not necessarily….. when your metabolism is controlled by your Thyroid, which is controlled by iodine, then the arrow thing is out the window. All our ancestors were thin and chiseled faced. What has changed? First, they ate little processed food and bread they baked themselves or from a local baker, both contained iodine and no bromine.

Let’s get back to to the importance of iodine and your metabolism. Iodine is a Halogen in the Periodic Chart along with Florine, Chlorine and Bromine. All three of these dominate iodine and will replace it in your body. Years ago, our bread flour contained iodine. Big Agri learned that Bromine would also preserve bread and was a lot cheaper. Now all commercial bread products are loaded with Bromine. Folks that eat too much restaurant bread are most likely overweight. All because Big Agri now uses bromine instead of iodine to preserve the flour.

I understand this is not the sole reason for obesity, but one that you can address. I challenge you to bake a loaf of bread with a flour that was never bleached, nor bromated as my Tractor Driver does. Take a slice of this along with a bun from McDonald’s, put these in the frig and see when each will mold first. Your bread will mold with in 10 days. The McDonald’s will not mold in 6 months or maybe even 6 years. If you don’t buy into my logic then do the internet search thing. Most of the ails on EC can be avoided by eating healthy food and/or behaving ourselves.

If this does not stir up a stink……. then I did something wrong. =========ORH===========
