An Apology of GMO

[Diana]

Yesterday I told a friend the solution to his every problem is crap food. Problem is he avoided it for so long he's weak to a single meal of it.

That's because his body is awake. What happens when you just eat junk all the time is your body can't discern anything because it is always busy dealing with the bad food. The systems are always overloaded. Once you start to clean up your diet and the burden starts coming off the filtering system, and your body's attempts to eke out nutrition are alleviated, your awareness of your body becomes more sensitive because all that energy trying to deal with bad food lets up. That's why one meal of crap does him in—because he can actually perceive it. Those who eat junk all the time don't perceive the effects because they are asleep to it, but the effects are still there. 

Another example is smoking. Those who don't smoke are much more sensitive to smoke. If you smoke, your body has "gone to sleep" as far as telling you it's harmful or not ideal. You have become desensitized. 

Perception, intention, and attitude do play a roll, but there is still the physical. As much as people don't want to embrace the physical, it is part of our existence currently.  

The other aspect is if you are under 30 years old, there isn't a lot of damage accumulated yet from eating badly for the most part. There is damage, but generally not enough to show up yet. 

It's just like waking up consciously in this world. Once you wake up to things you can now discern them, see them. And when something happens you aren't blind to it anymore and it affects you consciously. That does not mean you weren't being affected subconsciously when you weren't awake; or that you weren't affected indirectly. But now you have a conscious reaction, like the friend who reacted to the junk food.

If there is anyone here who has accomplished what the Bene Gesserit did in Dune—transforming actual molecular structures such as poison into non-poison—let me know.
