1938年的颶風餘波讓我們看清更多的災害面。飲用水可能受汙染，兩萬英哩範圍的電力及通訊斷線使得許多社區與外界失聯，警方、消防員及其他救援團隊不斷地工作，經常要臨時做出平常沒有受訓的事務。8. Crews triggered avalanches before they could pose a threat to traffic on a mountain highway, a day after a huge snow slide knocked two cars off the road in a high pass and buried them.

Lesson 70 Healthy Diet 健康飲食
1. I follow the diet based on the Gerson Therapy. It is a diet for curing cancers, curing other diseases, and maintaining health. Only organic or naturally grown food is allowed in the diet.
我個人遵循葛森療法所指導的飲食，它是一種治療癌症、疾病及保健的飲食方法，此種飲食只能攝取有機或自然栽種的天然食物。
2. Gerson’s diet therapy is very different from others.
--The treatments consist of salt and water management which holds down the intake of Na and increases the intake of K.
--Maximum digestibility of nutrients is achieved by hourly drinking fresh, raw vegetable and fruit juices and eating a basically vegetarian diet.
--Fat is restricted in order to lower intake of disease promoters of all kinds.
--The restriction of protein tends to uplift a patient’s immune response.
--Coffee enemas stimulate the bowel and liver enzymes to eliminate toxins across the bowel wall.
葛森的飲食療法和其他的飲食療法非常不同
--管理飲食中的鹽和水分，降低鈉但提高鉀的攝取量
--每小時喝一杯蔬果汁，只食用素食
--限制脂肪的攝取，以減少助長疾病的因子
--限制蛋白質的攝取，以提升患者免疫力
--搭配咖啡灌腸，以刺激腸及肝臟內的酵素，行經腸壁而排毒
3. Why should we have a less-salt or non-salt diet? 為何我們應該攝取少鹽或無鹽飲食?
One of the basic problems of disease is the loss of potassium from tissue cells and the penetration of sodium into the cells. Potassium behaves like a catalyst in the formation of enzymes. It’s the intracellular mineral needed for metabolism within body cells. Sodium, on the other hand acts as an inhibitor or blocking substance. It’s an extracellular mineral which must maintain outside of body cells in their fluid. When the intracellular/extracellular balance is disturbed, health problems start from damage to the cells. Actually, only a minimum of sodium is needed by the body for normal function, and plant material of all kinds contains quite adequate amount of sodium to satisfy our needs. Although the body is normally able to excrete excess sodium through the kidneys and feces, when it becomes overwhelmed daily, years after years with huge amount of excess sodium, there will come a point when the body’s ability to excrete this excess is reduced or lost. The consequence is symptoms of illness and the creation of disease dysfunction.
疾病的基本問題之一就是細胞中的鉀離子流失，但鈉離子卻滲透細胞內。鉀離子就像酵素形成中的催化劑，是細胞內的礦物質，供體細胞內代謝所需。相反的，鈉卻常抑制或阻斷這個功能，它是細胞外礦物質，必須留在細胞外的體液中，當這種細胞內外平衡受干擾，健康就會出問題。其實身體只需最少量的鈉即可正常運作，植物(蔬果)本身也已含有相當充足的鈉以滿足我們的需求，雖然過量的鈉通常會透過腎臟及糞便排出，但若每天攝取過量，日積月累總有一天身體排泄過量鈉的功能會減弱或喪失，後果就是出現疾病症狀且造成病態的功能障礙。
4. What causes the loss of potassium? 什麼造成鉀離子流失?
In the course of canning, bottling, preserving, freezing, and other forms of food processing, as well as during the usual procedure of cooking, potassium is depleted and salt is invariably added to the food. Addition like this constitutes an excess.
裝罐、封瓶、保存、冷凍和其他食物的處理形式，以及一般的烹調程序中，皆會讓鉀被耗盡，而鹽必被添加入食物中，這樣的添加就會造成鈉過量。
5. Eliminating animal protein can cause the condition of sodium outflooding from the body in its urine waste and stimulate cell-mediated immunity. We can get enough protein from potatoes, vegetables, oatmeal, and some added dairy for a positive nitrogen balance.
不攝取動物性蛋白質可引發鈉外流並隨尿液排出體外，而且能刺激細胞免疫。從馬鈴薯、蔬菜、燕麥、和某些添加的乳製品中攝取蛋白質就足夠了，以保持在正氮平衡狀態。
6. A healthy diet must reduce calories by limiting fat intake. Gerson diet allows fat only from oatmeal, flaxseed oil, and fatty acid in some fruit and vegetable.
健康的飲食必須限制脂肪的攝取以減少熱量，葛森飲食只允許從燕麥、亞麻仁油、及某些蔬果中的脂肪酸獲取脂肪。
7. Organically/naturally grown and freshly prepared food such as vegetarian food, raw fruit, and vegetable juice are profoundly effective, extremely complex, and chemically exquisite substances that heal better than anything ever invented by the mind of man.
有機(自然)栽培及新鮮準備的食物是種相當有效、極為複雜細緻的化學物質，其(保健/治療)效果比人類發明的任何事物來得出色。
8. In Gerson diet, why is drinking coffee prohibited while coffee enema is encouraged?
為何葛森飲食鼓勵咖啡灌腸卻禁止飲用咖啡？
Coffee by mouth causes undesirable stimulation of the digestive system. Orally taken caffeine overly excites the central nervous system. In contrast, when coffee is taken rectally, it offers entirely advantageous effect on the liver where, aside from detoxification, increases the production of glutathione S-transferase (a desirable enzyme).
口服咖啡會造成負面的消化道刺激，會使中樞神經系統興奮；相反地，灌入直腸的咖啡對肝臟有正面效果，除了促進肝臟排毒之外，還可增加GST(一種有益酵素)的產量。9. Potatoes are best when baked. The contents can be mashed with non-fat yogurt or salt-free soup. They should never be fried and preferably boiled in their jackets.
馬鈴薯最好是烘烤食用，可磨碎後加上脫脂優格做成馬鈴薯泥或做成不加鹽的湯，絕對不可油炸，最好連皮一起煮。
10. Vegetables should be stewed in their own juice to avoid the loss of minerals easily dissolved in water during cooking. It seems that these valuable minerals are not so well absorbed when they are out of their colloidal state.
蔬菜應該要用自己本身的水份小火慢燉，以避免烹調過程中，菜中的礦物質輕易溶於水而流失，這些寶貴礦物質的膠質狀態被破壞後，似乎就不是那麼好被吸收了。
11. Bread should contain whole rye or some whole wheat flour (up to 20%), or these may be mixed. It should be refined as little as possible.
麵包應含有完整裸麥麵粉或部份(最多20%)全麥麵粉，也可以兩者混合，麵包應盡量使用越少越好的精製加工程序。
12. Buckwheat cakes are optional, as are brown sugar, honey, maple sugar, and maple candy. No baking power or baking soda may be used, even in cooking.
可選擇性食用蕎麥蛋糕、紅糖、蜂蜜、楓糖漿、楓糖糖果
13. Nicotine should be avoided; liquor, wine, and beer should be reduced to a minimum in favor of fresh fruit juice. Coffee and tea should be cut to a minimum with the exception of the following herb tea: peppermint, chamomile, linden flowers, orange flowers, and a few others.
應避免尼古丁，盡量少喝烈酒、葡萄酒、啤酒，多喝新鮮果汁，咖啡和茶也應盡量少喝，但以下花草茶除外: 薄荷、甘菊、菩提花、橙花、和一些其他的花草茶。
14. Milk and milk products should be nonfat and should not be salted or spiced, like pot cheese, buttermilk, nonfat yogurt, and nonfat butter.
牛奶和乳製品應該要脫脂、不加鹽和香料，像鄉村起司、白脫牛奶、脫脂優格、脫脂奶油就是這類的乳品。
15. Salt, bicarbonate of soda, smoked fish, and sausage should be avoided as much as possible, as should sharp condiments such as pepper and ginger, but garden herbs should be used—onions, parsley leaves, chives, celery, and even some horseradish.
鹽、小蘇打、煙燻魚、和香腸應盡可能避免，胡椒和薑等辛辣調味料也是，但應多食用園香科植物—如洋蔥、荷蘭芹葉、蝦夷蔥、芹菜、甚至一些辣根等。16. Alcohol limits the blood’s ability to carry oxygen and places strain on the liver to detoxify and remove it from the body. Alcohol is toxic.
含酒精的飲料會限制血液攜帶氧氣的能力，肝臟會為了排毒及移除體內酒精而產生壓力。酒精是毒物。
17. As for fruits, pineapples and berries may cause an allergic reaction to the aromatic acid present, and avocados are too high in fat.
至於水果，鳳梨和莓果類可能會因內含芳香酸而產生過敏反應，而酪梨的脂肪含量則太高。
18. A substance in cucumbers known as cucurbitacin causes indigestion in some people. Cucumbers likely to cause burping, stomach pains and other signs of indigestion also taste bitter because cucurbitacin causes both bitterness and gas.
黃瓜/胡瓜內含一種叫葫蘆素(cucurbitacin)的化合物會對某些人造成消化不良，很可能會導致打嗝、胃痛、和其他消化不良徵兆的黃瓜嘗起來有點苦，因為葫蘆素會產生苦味和氣體。
19. Spices such as black pepper and paprika are irritants and can stop healing. Basil, oregano, and others are to be avoided because of their high aromatic acid content.
像黑楜椒和紅辣椒之類的香料具有刺激性，會影響疾病的治療。九層塔、奧勒岡葉、和其他香料也應避免，因為含有大量的芳香酸(易產生過敏)。
