Nutritional Observations from One Who Knows

Dinar won’t RV this week

Posted by Nutrition Dude on April 3, 2011

Dinar Daddy and all of the other Dinar pumpers got everyone all excited Friday that we were close. If the Dinar was going to RV in the next few days, do you honestly think CBI would auction off $154 Million Dinar on the 3rd?

Dinar Daddy Ali love fest to serve your Dinar needs

Posted by Nutrition Dude on February 15, 2011

Again, I am off subject and let me precede my comments that I am a Dinar holder, but…

I go to the Dinar Daddy site every day to look at the buffet of data which I see as a combination of dinar pumpers, whack jobs that just like reading their name on the net and some educated individuals trying to be as realistic as possible with their observations.

As large as the buffet is at Daddy’s house, I still come back to one overriding issue. Daddy appears to be in Ali’s pocket. How can somebody remain neutral as a news feed of sorts, when he is referring dinar buyers to Ali?

The love letter just posted on the site reeks of a staged manipulative communication.

And to all of you who think the RV is tomorrow, is it logical to assume if somebody truly knew the RV date, that sales would stop by sellers like Ali, who as the primary seller of Iraqi Dinar in the USA, knows more then he would ever be willing to let on? I mean come on folks.

God bless capitalism. Not only can people make money on the sales of Dinar but that can clean up on all of the ancillary services being offered. CPA’s. Attorneys. Offshore banking and corporation services. Tax shelters. Website subscriptions. Cellphone notifications and so on. Now daddy is promoting the “Asset Protection & Tax Planning Counsel”. How long will this go on? Until everybody is sucked dry? And at the end of the day, if the Dinar RV is a big scam, plenty of people made money.

I have a friend, who bought into the whole deal. Owns a chunk of Dinar. Paid for the offshore bank. The offshore corporation. The consultants and so on. He was naive and I don’t want to make him feel bad but it just pisses me off.

Don’t get me wrong, I am Dinar holder and for the past three weeks, I was overseeing the extraction of American businesspeople from Egypt. I know what goes on in the world. I expect an RV to happen at some time but I have finally placed it in the shoebox it was meant to stay in. I just want people to be careful waiting for the big payoff while others are accumulating their big payoff on the backs of dinar dreamers who are hanging on your every word.

In my lifetime, I would like to see two things. Christ coming back and the RV. NOBODY knows the time or place.

Thanks

Losers of the week: Okie Oilman, Blaino, Nameless, G.E.T. Team, Gankins, Joe P, Cagetrucker, Poolman, Athena and everybody invoking the name of my Lord and Savior to pump Dinar.

Iraqi Dinar Pumpers Ali Dinar Daddy TerryK GetTeam Okie RV Scam

Posted by Nutrition Dude on January 9, 2011

I know I am off subject again but I was on a conference call tonight for the Get Team and was completely embarrassed at their trailer park unprofessionalism.

The call was a joke.

Setting a bunch of millionaire wannabees aside, here is my take on the Dinar:

Ali might me an agent for Iraq. His mission might be to suck as many American Dollars as possible on the sale of Dinar from Iraq.

Possibly he and others found a bunch of dinar pumpers to get websites, blogs, forums, chat rooms and conference calls expressly for the purpose of making the American public purchase Dinars with the anticipation that the dinar was going to revalue at any moment. Secondly, these same pumpers have been earning commissions on all of the financial advisors telling the holders of the Dinar how to hide the potential cash in after the dinar revalues from the IRS with offshore corporations and banks.

They have been successful as I personally know of many Dinar holders that have spent thousands of dollars setting up the offshore accounts.

There are those like MED who seem to be a voice of reason in the world of dinar speculation, but if I felt the Dinar was going to revalue any day for a huge personally windfall, would I be keeping all of my retail Dinar sold on my website so that I might become a Billionaire in the next day or two, or would I continue to sell it at the going rate on my non-biased web forum?

Even though I read Dinar Daddy every day, what a putz. His technology cant keep up with the data demand and he comes across like Ali is feeding him dog food every day for his pumping. If you are trying to communicate facts why even have a rumor section. I look at people like TerryK and Okie pulling crap out of their ass on a daily basis. I am continually amazed at the fact Dinar Sheeple keep buying their crap.

NOBODY HAS EVER BEEN CORRECT ON THEIR PREDICTIONS. NOBODY.

The revaluing of the Dinar is like trying to figure out the day Christ is coming back. Speaking of which, as a Christian, I am embarrassed at the individuals pumping Dinar in the name of Christ. Shame on you. Prayer or not, shame on you.

Dinar sellers have made money on the spread just as a number of sellers will also be buying the dinar back at a profit.

Don’t get me wrong, even though I spent over 20 years as a white collar fraud investigator, I hope the Iraqi Dinar does revalue. If it comes in at anything over 10 cents, sell and thank your creator. Don’t buy into those telling you they have special intelligence that this will come in at $6.00 This is total BS. Maybe med is right and Iraq is not going to LOP and will come in at .86. This would be a huge return.

Personally, though I hope for the best, I think the Dinar will come in at even money with no real increase in value and the sellers will turn into buyers, making more money on the cash in.

Sundance Global Food Quality Review

Posted by Nutrition Dude on October 1, 2010

A number of prior business associates presented Sundance Global to me. Setting aside the outstanding pre-launch marketing materials and overall concept, for me the bottom line comes from the quality of the food.

I read nutritional labels. I understand nutritional processes and ingredients. The compensation plans associated with companies mean nothing to me if the product they are expecting our customers to eat are inferior and/or loaded with preservatives or high amounts of sodium and other harmful ingredients.

The premise of Sundance Global is based upon emergency food storage. And, in participating as a Sundance Global business associate, you will be paid in food and cash for selling product and signing up new distributors.

Emergency food storage is a good thing. With potential terrorism, martial law, natural disasters, asteroids, nuclear accidents and electromagnetic bursts from the sun that could shut down out grids, we need to have at least 90 days of emergency food and water. You would need at least a two year supply to survive an Apocalypse.

The concept of food storage is quite prevalent in churches, specifically the Mormon Church. It’s a great idea. I do it.

But with emergency food storage we really need to look at the quality of the food.

Generally the primary method of food storage is freeze dried. Add some 5 gallon buckets of rice and beans with plenty of water storage and you have the whole package.

The problem is freeze drying is a heat process and much of the enzymes and phytonutrients of freeze dried fruits and veggies are dead. This is why it is a good idea to have a powdered fruit and veggie blend that has not been freeze dried so that you can be assured of receiving the nutrients of 5 to 9 servings of fruits and veggies per day.

After reviewing the product line it is my opinion while I may survive on this food storage system, I would want to make sure I had a cardiologist with me to treat me for heart disease.

The sodium and disodium levels are way above average. A few of the products have more saturated fat then I am willing to put in my body.

It looks like most of the product line is freeze dried. Most of you have no clue what freeze drying actually is. You have heard you are not supposed to overcook your veggies? 117 degrees at three minutes kills half of the naturally occurring enzymes in fruits and veggies. Freeze drying is a process that takes place in a vacuum chamber for THREE DAYS and an average temp over the ezymatic kill point. HELLO?

My bottom line opinion on Sundance Global…

The product line is complete garbage, is unhealthy and the company is earning an income on the fears of church going people.

One word…

HYPE!

Iraqi Dinar Pumpers

Posted by Nutrition Dude on September 17, 2010

I know this is off subject, but I just need a forum to vent about all of the so called, “Iraqi Dinar Experts”. I personally think most of them are on the payroll of the Dinar brokers and now those like TerryK who announced a $4.25 RV last night.

I have no doubt the Dinar will increase in value and may even be soon, but it amazes me the BS and hype that is coming out right now to get people to buy more Dinar.

Dinar Daddy is supposed to be a neutral ground for all news and speculation, but if you order your Dinar through Dinar Trade and mention you were referred by Dinar Daddy, you will get a discount. How can any site be deemed a neutral site if they are selling the very product people keep pumping?

Lastly, we have all of the offshore tax experts pumping the Dinar holders for thousands of dollars to fund offshore corporations and bank accounts. I can only assume those hosting Dinar conference calls with these tax evasion experts are getting a kickback on the activity.

That is all for now. Lets see what happens.

Nutritional Labeling Reality

Posted by Nutrition Dude on August 16, 2010

Who knows what to think these days…

A nutritional label is published but is it reality?

I went to Whole Foods and Fresh & Easy to buy the Organic California Blend and found it was grown in China. Anybody else have a problem with that?

Ditch the Aspartame (via Wisewithyourbody’s Blog)

Posted by Nutrition Dude on June 4, 2010

And because of all the bad press on Aspartame, they have changed the name to Amino Sweet

First bad product to ditch… the ASPERTAME!  Many people drink diet sodas because they think all the sugar in regular sodas is bad.  Why you can't just stop drinking the soda… I don't know.  But I'll start with the aspertame.  🙂 So, what exactly is this artificial sweetener made of? According to it manufacturer, The Nutrasweet Company, (the product's brand name), it's made of aspartic acid and phenylalanine. Aspartic acid is an amino acid tha … Read More

Maltodextrin in Organic Barley Juice Powder

Posted by Nutrition Dude on June 4, 2010

Young organic barley grass is from the Gods. The nutrition gained from young barley grass if off the charts. Barley Grass contains more dietary fiber than bran and is a rich source of beta carotene, chlorophyll, iron, enzymes, vitamin C (seven times more than oranges),vitamin B-12 (important for brain function), and 19 essential amino acids.  It aids the body in DNA repair; helps improve stamina, and clarity of thought.

The usual method of taking barley grass is through barley grass powder that you add water or juice to.

In looking at which barley grass to purchase, you need to know how it was processed and if it contains any additives.

Now obviously, you would want 100% organic young barley grass when you could get it, but even without any additives like magnesium stearate, you would still need to know which method was used to convert the juice to a powder. If the process exceeds 117 degrees for 3 minutes, you start to kill off the enzymes.

In my research I was introduced to a young barley grass powder produced in Japan and distributed via network marketing in the USA. It tasted OK. Then I found a PDF file online describing the product in detail. I was reading about the product trying to determine how the juice was processed into powder. I read the following statement in the brochure, “Prepared using a cold process….No Heat, which can destroy enzymes”.

I was amazed to read this as there is only one company I know of that can turn barley grass juice into a powder below the enzymatic kill point.

I contacted a number of formulators and a farmer in Utah that grows young barley grass to figure out how this company in Japan was doing it.

One word was pointed out to me. Maltodextrin.

Maltodextrin was an additive in the barley grass powder from Japan.

This is a corn starch that was added to the raw barley grass juice to protect it from a Spray Drying process which can exceed 400 degrees.

Two things…

1) Heat processed not cold processed

2) 30% Cornstarch

Not pure young barley grass juice powder.

I feel their marketing materials are blatantly lying to the consumers about how their juice is converted to powder.

Unhealthiest Juices in America

Posted by Nutrition Dude on June 3, 2010

This is certainly an enlightening article. In my opinion most of what the author pointed out is obvious. My concerns are with the less then obvious Super Juices with the Magic Berries. Most of which I will rip apart on this blog

Unhealthiest Juices in America.

Freeze Drying IS a Heat Process

Posted by Nutrition Dude on June 2, 2010

OK, so we know 99% of all commercially available juices have been heat pasteurized over the 117 degree kill point and are mostly devoid of enzymes. So the natural solution is taking a juice or fruit and veggie product and convert it to a powder.

The majority of available food powders have been heat processed. The list below starts with the highest heat settings and most damaging to enzymes. (Remember 117 for three minutes is the enzyme kill point).

Flash drying takes place at over 600 degrees for 30 seconds.

Spray drying is over 425 degrees at 1 minute.

Drum Drying 160 degrees. 2 hours.

Freeze Drying 120 to 140 degrees of infrared heat for up to 72 hours.

Window Refraction drying 205 degrees for 10 minutes.

Instafresh is 80 degrees on average for 30 to 120 seconds.(No higher then 100 at the very end)

I bring up freeze drying today because there are companies selling powdered juice products that will not admit they freeze dry. There is a company that used to buy their whole food products from our farms and now they freeze dry. A year ago I called their customer service department to confirm what I already knew. The rep stated they flash freeze a puree’ and dry it in an “airless environment” at below freezing.

An Airless Environment is a vacuum chamber and if the frozen puree is in a vacuum chamber it is being freeze dried.

Once the frozen puree is placed on the vacuum chamber you have to introduce heat to cause the frozen liquid to turn to a vapor.

Scientifically, heat HAS to be introduced. If somebody claims they freeze dry without using any heat, ask them if they purchased their freeze drying equipment from the guy who sold jack his magic beans.

To wrap this up, that company now just says the use a “Proprietary Process” without explaining anything.
