WHY DO SCHOOL STUDENTS

BECOME OVERWEIGHT OR OBESE?

The following news item, dated 22 Feb 2012, has appeared in MNT (Medical News Today):

Researchers in Australia seem to have found that one fourth of the students in Australian secondary schools are either overweight or obese.

The study was first published on 20 February, in the Medical Journal of Australia.

Those interested in the full story can click on to: http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/242025.php

The researchers seem to have found that the “male students were more likely to be overweight or obese as were students who sleep less, do not exercise regularly, spend more time using electronic media, and come from a lower socioeconomic background”.

MY OBSERVATION ON THE ABOVE MATTER:

My intention is NOT to deny the findings of the researchers.

My only interest is to offer a proper explanation or sensible reasoning for the above occurrence.

I have very clearly established through ALL my publications, starting from the book on Obesity (1998), that, irrespective of the age - whether they are young or old, they will become overweight and obese if they UNDER-URINATE.

Such under-urination can occur due to any one or more of the several reasons I have explained in my books. They include:

(a) Reduced water consumption

(b) Withholding urinal pressure for prolonged periods for various reasons, such as: staying in the classroom until recession, short intervals, students’ interest in spending more time eating at the canteen or playing with friends, lack of toilet facilities, dirty toilets, and the like.

This will induce profuse sweating, resulting in hyperhidrosis, that happens as the brain’s remedial measure to reduce the urinal bladder pressure. This will result in the loss of water from within the body.

(c) Loss of body water through profuse sweating, which can be due to several reasons, such as sitting in a room that is devoid of ventilation, staying in a strongly air-conditioned room wherein the air-conditioner ‘sucks’ the body moisture (and that 'urinates' on our behalf) (dehydration), sitting under strong air currents created by ceiling fans, playing football and the like - especially in hot weather, jogging - worst being Marathon runs, etc.

The next question that may arise in one’s mind is, why
should (or how does) under-urination make a person obese.

A school student’s body - as in the case of all humans
requires only a definite quantity of ALL the substances that
are utilized for a healthy growth and maintenance.

Only a definite quantity (which of course will vary from one individual to
another) of each of the vitamins, such as A, B, C, and the lik
and a definite quantity of minerals such as Calcium,
Magnesium, Iron, and the like are required on a daily basis.

Consuming exact quantities of each of the vitamins and
minerals is an impossible thing. One would simply eat the
normal and available food, guided by his/her taste buds and
satisfaction that develops when one has eaten stomach-full.

Frequently, students tend to overeat any one (or more) item that
may be to their likeness. (Often, adults too do likewise).

When a particular nutrient - whether that be vitamin or
mineral, is over-consumed, the brain somehow tries to get
rid of the excess so as to keep the body in a healthy
state rather than developing diseases such as
Hypervitaminosis-A, Iron toxicity, or Obesity.

The brain appears to achieve this essentially through two

main pathways:

The urination removes such excesses, often helped by liver, kidney, etc., and
The faeces removes the undigested excesses.

Thus, all the undigested (and thereby unabsorbed) CALCIUM
excess, for instance, gets removed along with the faecal
matter.

However, such undigested (and therefore unavailable) calcium can
become available for absorption, from the faecal matter at
the colo-rectal region, if the faeces turns acidic. This will
then increase the body’s calcium content (which will increase the
body weight) to a higher level.

As indicated above, any free calcium floating in the blood
assisted by Calcitonin hormone that secretes in the thyroid gland), or the calcium
that is in the lymph fluid, will get removed by the urine when
the student (or any adult) urinates.

The problem arises only when the student (or the adult) does
NOT urinate adequately.

The number of urinations or the quantity of urine that has to
be voided in a day to remove all the unwanted excesses has
relevance to the quantity of the excesses that have
accumulated within the body of the person.

As per my study I have reported in my book on Obesity (1998)
under normal circumstances, an adult may require an intake
of about 2 to 3 L of water in a 24-hour day, and may have to
urinate nearly all of it, which may necessitate voiding about 8
or 9 times.

When this happens, we can safely assume that nearly ALL
the unwanted EXCESSES, along with the toxic substances,
have gone out of our body.

The water requirement for children differs very much, and
that should depend upon their age, size, living environment,
activity, type of food consumed, and the like. We should not
fix it. Such a suggestion can result in misguidance.

However, it is of tremendous importance for school students
to urinate frequently - may be once in every two hours, so
that all the unwanted excesses, particularly the calcium, will
get eliminated from the body.

If they under-urinate, ALL the EXCESSIVE calcium will
accumulate within the body, and this will invariably make the
student over-weight or obese.

If the School Heads, and all those concerned with planning
the schools’ educational system, can realize the above facts,
they would plan the curriculum in such a way that the
students will be encouraged to urinate once every two hours.

This will almost definitely keep at least about 90% of the
students without turning overweight and/or obese.

OK, friends,

I hope the above information is useful to everybody.

CHILDREN - OBESITY:
JUNK FOOD - WRONG DIAGNOSIS

Dear Friends,

If you are a Malaysian, you must have definitely heard of our Education / Health Ministry's latest attempt to safeguard the health of our children.

We should be thankful to them.
We sure should appreciate their concern.
Not many countries have this much of concern for children.

Only one thing worries me a lot!

In the process of diagnosing the correct cause for children's obesity, they are putting the blame on JUNK FOOD + untimely consumption of food.

This is NOT correct at all!

I have done intense research in this area for the past 36 years.

I have written a beautiful book "Obesity: Causes, Cure and Prevention", in 1998.

This book contains undeniable facts.

I am willing to challenge with ANYBODY on this subject.

Junk food can give other problems, but NOT obesity.

Similarly, untimely eating can give rise to other problems such as duodenal ulcer, but certainly NOT obesity!

Obesity in children AND in adults occurs because of:
1. Under-urinating.
2. Excessive food consumption.
That is all to it.

Let us evaluate this a little more:
Let us see the "2" above, first:

It is CALCIUM ACCUMULATION WITHIN THE BODY THAT MAKES ANYBODY OBESE OR OWERWEIGHT.

If a person is going to eat lots and lots of PLAIN RICE, he will NOT put on weight.

All the carbohydrates will get burnt, even if he/she is not going to exercise.

At the same time, it is true that eating TOO MUCH will make a person put on weight.

How does this happen?

Let us first understand this: that, even if a person is going to eat only a QUARTER stomach full, if he is going to consume ABUNDANT calcium, then, he will put on weight. He/she will become obese.

On the other hand, ABUNDANT food that contains EXTREMELY little calcium (e.g., rice itself, for it contains only some 5 or 10 mg of Calcium per 100 gms of rice) will NOT make the person overweight or obese.

That is why SOME fashion-conscious girls, in spite of starving without food, still put on weight.

Again, among the STARVING girls (or anybody), only those who UNDER-URNIATE will put on weight to become obese, and NOT those liberally urinating starving girls.

The liberally-urinating starving girls will become SKELETAL-like. They will become extremely SKINNY!

Now, let us evaluate the "1" above:

That says, it is UNDER-URINATION that makes children (or anybody) obese.

By right, to maintain good health, one MUST urinate more that 7 times daily - in a 24 hours' day.

It would be better, and optimal, if a person can urinate 9 times.

Eight times during day time, and at least once in the middle of the night.

Such urination will REMOVE from the body all the EXCESSIVE and UNWANTED calcium that had gone into the body either unknowingly or even purposely - by taking calcium-enriched foods and drinks or calcium supplements.

Of course, if a person is going to take Calcium-enriched foods and drinks OR calcium supplements, then, he/she will have to urinate 10 to 12 times, so that that excess too can be thrown out of the body.

To urinate about 8 or 10 times, one will have to drink about 8 or 9 glasses of WATER - Clean water.

Drinking juices, soups and beverages will not help, for the water content in them can remove only the 'dirt' contained in that juice or beverage - that cannot help in the removal of other 'dirt' in the body.

After drinking pure water, almost that ENTIRE water should be urinated out.

The quantity of urine will get lessened, if the person does the following:

Profusely sweat by doing extremely active and sweat-producing exercises - this aspect concerns ADULTS over the age of 21.

(Children SHOULD do such strenuous games, so that their body will grow properly. I have discussed this elaborately in my forthcoming book).

Should NOT use fast running fans or air-conditioners while sleeping. This will remove a substantial quantity of the body water, resulting in reduced urination.

Should NOT control (or withhold) the URINAL PRESSURE.
This is the worst habit of all that will make any child or adult overweight and obese - BEYOND ANY DOUBT!

Drinking too much of water and NOT urinating will give a person diabetes only. This kind of person urinates only about THREE times daily!

NOT drinking enough water, and therefore NOT urinating liberally, will give a person diabetes and heart attack,

Such a person will get, in addition, grey hair, erratic menses, lumps, cysts, fibroids, endometriosis, polycystic ovary, cancers, kidney stones, etc.

When I refer to people as UNDER-URINATING, I refer to those who urinate only about THREE TIMES daily.

These people's body will also be smelling awful, with body odour - the sweat smell.

That is why, you invariable find that ALL obese people emit extremely bad smelling BODY ODOUR.

Women of this kind will also be having abundanta white discharge.

SO, IF WE WANT TO KEEP OUR CHILDREN SLIM, WE SHOULD DO THE FOLLOWING IMMEDIATELY:

1. Build more toilets in schools: a lot more for girl students than the boys.
2. Give the children about 15 minutes INTERVALS once every TWO hours.
3. All the children must be told to URINATE without holding on their pressure.
4. They should be encouraged to drink pure water: about 3 or 4 glasses while in school.
5. Schools should provide Water Purifier in several places in within the premises, almost one in each class room.
6. Some clean, disposable, 'glasses' for use should be provided.

If we can do all the above, our children will be definitely SLIM, and will NOT get any disease.

If junk food is prevented, children's other aspects of health will also become excellent.

Without regulating the LIBERAL URINATION, just controlling or preventing the sale of junk food alone will DEFINITELY NOT MAKE OUR CHILDREN SLIM. THEY WILL CONTINUE TO BE OVER-WEIGHT AND OBESE.

Let me challenge the above statement.

Please wait and see: The next year's health report will NOT show any improvement, unless it is manipulated to justify the junk food prevention exercise.

If you, as a Reader of this BLOG, have any power to influence our Ministry's decisions, kindly HELP - God will bestow ALL HIS BLESSINGS upon you!

I have discussed WITH EVIDENCE in my book "THE TRUE CAUSES OF ALL DISEASES". Please read, and you will be glad you did it!

OK, bye,
