Cooking and processing food changes nutrients into some toxic substances
that the body and brain cannot use. Some of these get into the
hypothalamus, which is not protected by the blood brain barrier. This
means these substances can clog up neurons, and if they do they may
cause us not to feel anger when appropriate.. Not feeling and releasing
the anger could cause even more clogging of neurons, and symptoms could
re-appear, probably not intense but some mild nervous symptoms. This is
why I prefer raw food. I still get some headaches and fever probably
from toxins in food or the environment. Also it's cooked fat that is the
bad guy. Raw fat is very good for the brain. I eat raw animal fat,
including raw egg yolks, but if you're not into that, it might be good
not to overcook fat but include it in your diet. David Horrobin has also
had good results the vegetable fat, like primrose oil.
