“Food for Life”

The staple food of the Japanese is rice,
A dietary custom that had persisted since the Jomon period.
This changed after World War II.
Since then the number of cancer patients has increased abnormally.

The reason for this increase has recently become clear.
Cancer is a “food-related disease” caused by diet.
Genetically modified crops are the culprit, such as,
Corn, soybeans, rapeseed, and so on.
Many processed foods are indistinguishable.

Sodium sulfite and sodium nitrate,
Used as preservatives in processed meats,
Such as bacon and sausage,
Have been found to be carcinogenic.

Refined wheat flour is also dangerous.
Only after WWII did the Japanese begin eating large quantities of wheat flour,
It is now found in many foods in Japan such as bread, pasta, and udon noodles.
Refined sugar is also dangerous.
It is highly addictive,
And cancer present in the body feeds on it.

Who benefits from this increase in disease?
Big interests are at play, and the public is being sacrificed.
If nothing is done, Japan will perish.
Who is in control of Japan’s food supply?
Have the government and bureaucracy sold their souls?

In Japan, the emperor also plants and harvests rice.
This rice is dedicated to shrines as a sign of gratitude.
At shrine festivals, people pray for a bountiful harvest.
Food itself was a religion.

To eat is to live.
To live is to train the soul.
We were not born to be sick.
There are cases where illness is caused by problems in the mind,
But if a specific food is the cause, it can be eliminated from our diet.

The food of life should not be neglected.


「命の糧」

日本人の主食は米
縄文時代より続く食の習慣
それが戦後に変わってしまった
そして異常にがん患者が増えた

最近その理由がわかってきた
がんは食事が原因の「食原病」なのだ
それらは遺伝子組み換えの作物
トウモロコシ、大豆、菜種など
加工品となると判別がつかない

ベーコンやソーセージといった加工肉の
防腐剤として使われている
亜硫酸ナトリウムや硝酸ナトリウムには
発がん性が確認されている

精白した小麦粉も危ない
日本人が小麦粉を大量に食べ出したのは戦後
パンやパスタやうどんなどだ
精白した砂糖も危ない
体内でがんの餌となる
いずれも依存性が高いのが特徴だ

病気を増やすことで得をしているのは誰だ
大きな利権が動き国民が犠牲になっている
このままでは日本は滅んでしまう
日本の食を管理しているのは誰だ
政府も官僚も魂を売ってしまったのか

日本では天皇も田植えや稲刈りをされる
実った作物は感謝を込め神社に奉納する
神社の祭りでは五穀豊穣を祈願する
食そのものが宗教だったのだ

食べるとは生きること
生きるとは魂修行をすること
病気になるために生まれたわけではない
心が問題で病気になる場合もあるが
食が原因ならば取り除ける

命の糧は疎かにしてはなるまい
