It is the carbohydrate content of food that drives the chemical reactions that turn the proteins and fats you eat into steroid (sex) hormones, muscle tissue, cytokines in your immune system, and neutrotransmitters in your brain and body. Fats called triglycerides can fuel all of the same chemical reactions that carbohydrates do. Remember that even your heart as a summer and a winter metabolism - in the summer your heart uses glucose and in the winter it's meant to run on free fatty acids. In other words, you are designed to live on both carbohydrates and fats, depending on the landscape and season.

There is no scientific evidence that you were ever meant to live solely on carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are converted and storedto see you through lean times. Protein and fat in the form of other living things would be available wherever you were living, no matter what the season --unlike carbohydrates, which would grow and be available only during the warm-weather growing season. So summer eating -- carbohydrate consumption driven by the number of hours of light -- is a physical imperative to secure to secure sugar storage for famine, and it's driven by the timing of the light.

Here's something to think about now that winter has settled in... it is from Lights out, by T.S. Wiley, a book well worth the read fr better health and well being.

If you stay up too late, your hormones shift and cause your appetite to change. The sugars you crave send your insulin up to create the insulin resistance you need to get fat. On your way to tubby, you convert all teh carbohydrates you've eaten into cholesterol as VLDLs, and you retain water, which alters your blood pressure. At this point, any doctor would tell you there's heart disease on the horizon. We agree.

But we're going to tell you the first symptom of heart disease isn't high blood pressure and high cholesterol, it's depression.

When you live in prehybernartion mode, but never get to go dormant, you go crazy. You go crazy because you have stayed up so long. You see, in nature, staying up that long would mean you've eaten half of the planet, which is way more than your share. And you are most likely no longer fertile from swimming in all that insulin. Therefore you have no business living. so nature takes you out by altering yoru reality so you won't want to live anymore. You actually go crazy so you will take you out.

It's the "less work for the hostess" principle manifested in Mother Nature... The way nature effects this mechanism in your body is by ultimately creating a bipolar state of mind. Nature doubles the odds of your suicide with a bipolar state, inasmuch as your mania means a complete loss of impulse control.

There are major players and trendy buzzwords - serotonin, dopamine, GABA, and melatonin - to identify the loops in the machinery, but the bottom line is still the same. Sleep controls food supply and reproduction, which controls your mental state.

A nontoxic chemical technology causes infertility in rats, which feast on crops intended for human consumption. This is according to The Northern Arizona University, NAU and the University of Arizona researchers. The headline for this news story: Menopause Researcher Discovers Nontoxic Chemical That Causes Infertility In Rats

Why this research? Because rodents consume or damage up to 50 percent of pre-harvest rice crops, and due to large scale rice cultivation globally if rice production were to increase by 10 percent, more than 380 million more people could be fed annually. Rice production can be increased by 10 percent by reducing rodent fertility by 50 percent.

T.S. Wiley has done research in the area of what she calls "The Killer Connection," and says this in her book Lights Out. "So our time perception is off, our blood pressure's up, we live with diabetes and heart disease, cancer can't be cured, our waists are ever expanding - and the medical profession hasn't got a clue why. Neither do the researchers. An editorial piece called "Fat Rats and Carcinogenesis Screening" (Journal of Nature, 1997) just about says it all. The author criticizes toxicologists for using "inappropriate strains of rodents in badly designed experiments, for the screening of the safty of noxious chemicals."

The bottom line? We need help. "The potpourri of man-made disasters on the horizon that will affect our health is breathtaking," said Wiley.

The hidden truth burried at the bottom of the syndrome of antidepressant use is that the "sleepless" phenomenon that creates a higher-than-normal serotonin brain levels responsible for the depression we're all experiencing simultaneously causes heart disease.

The media, doctors, and researchers will all tell you that fat people are more likely to have heart attacks because they have high cholesterol and high blood pressure - from ebing fat. And everybody knows that fat people are fat because they eat fatty foods.Fat people do have high cholesterol and high blood pressure that lead to heart attacks, but eating high-fat food has nothing to do with it. That's the lie they're hiding.

Fat people just get too tired to live.

Sleep controls your appetite for carbohydrates, the consumption of which controls water retention (to change your blood pressure) and insulin production (which facilitates cholesterol production). No sleep, no control. And seratonin builds up. When you don't sleep and you eat carbohydrates all day, week, month, year, decade, you swim in chroinically high serotonin because it never gets to turn into melatonin. That's where the depression comes in, and the actual heart disease.

As people everywhere, especially women in menopause, face yet another year wondering how to get rid of the belly fat accumulating around their mid-sections, it might do everyone good to understand the science behind it all.

If you have a sweet tooth, get ready for the really bad news… because scientists have finally proved that fructose, a cheap form of sugar used in thousands of food products and soft drinks, can damage human metabolism.

As T.S. Wiley said in her book Lights Out, “America in the 1940s and 1950s was already dying in fast forward from fast-food products preserved in sugar, and from its changing lifestyles thanks to the light. Longer working hours, cheaper electricity and television kept people up later at night, and death followed… When you stay up too late in artificial light, you begin to live in fast forward with every fiber of your being.”

By the 1970s most food manufacturers switched their sweeteners from sucrose, otherwise known as table sugar, to corn syrup, because HFCS was cheaper and much sweeter. This was when the average American's diet really took a dive for the worse. Why? Because, the human body metabolizes fructose in a much different way than glucose. When you consume fructose in large amounts there are profound negative results to the liver.

Fructose is made out of corn, and it can cause fat cells to grow around your organs, and it triggers diabetes and heart disease. Currently the Corn Refiners Association is hoping to convince you that fructose is as safe and natural as table sugar. It is not. 15 grams a day of fructose was the average a century ago, while today 73 grams per day is what a typical adolescent gets from soft drinks, but it is also in salad dressings, and many other foods. It is these huge doses of fructose that are so bad. Oh and here’s the irony – most of the low-fat diet foods have the highest fructose levels.

Wiley points out that, “By keeping the lights on to create endless summer, and having access to endless carbohydrates, all of our hormones are in summer mode, too… Not only our minds but our hearts live in the constant “panic” of mating season (competition for resources, high hormonal mood swings, and, ultimately loss), which used to coincide with real summer. So, day and night, year-round, decade after decade, our sex hormones are in high gear and we’re ready for a fight. The low fat lies of the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s have only exhacerbated an enormous evolutionary glitch by prescribing a diet of more carbohydrates and exercise, which induce cortisone and insulin highs that have never been seen before in humans. The real bottom line is that when you don’t sleep, your heart dies… Our heart has a seasonal metabolism, just like your brain. Your summer heart runs on straight sugar, (glucose) and your winter heart runs on free fatty acids.”

The metabolism of fructose by your liver also creates toxins like uric acid, which drives up blood pressure and can also cause gout. Fructose leads to increased belly fat, insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome.

It's no wonder the food and beverage industry doesn’t want you to know how bad HFCS is because after its introduction in 1975, it has become a multi-billion dollar boost to the corn industry. It is in every processed food.

Today about one-quarter of the calories consumed by the average American are comprised of added sugars, mostly HFCS with little to no nutrient values. We consume 142 pounds a year of sugar and 55 percent of the sweeteners used in foods and beverages are made from corn. The worst kinds of fructose include high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) and crystalline fructose, both major contributors to: insulin resistance, obesity, elevated blood pressure, triglycerides and LDL, depletion of vitamins and minerals and cardiovascular and liver diseases, cancer, gout and arthritis.

Wiley teaches medical practitioners who come to her environmental endocrinology seminars that every living thing on the earth gets energy from glucose, and it originates from healthy fruits and vegetables filled with fiber, minerals, vitamins, enzymes, and phytonutrients, moderating any negative metabolic effects. Every human cell utilizes glucose but much of it is burned up right after you consume it, while fructose is turned into free fatty acids (FFAs), the damaging form of cholesterol known as VLDL, and triglycerides, which are stored as fat.

So the bottom line is - if you have a sweet tooth, stick to organic cane sugar, or raw honey in small amounts. Do not use any artificial sweeteners, which are worse for your health than fructose. And remember, even agave syrup is fructose.

And as the women who are taking the Wiley Protocol rhythmic bioidentical hormones know, replacing hormones naturally in the way they were originally produced, biomimetically, has a profound effect on energy and metabolism. So why would anyone want to destroy that by eating fructose?
