During these several months, I have been intricately involved with reviewing and evaluating the infectious disease risks in eating beef/lamb, chicken/turkey & pork. The result is pork became the safest meat to be eating.

1. Beef (Mad Cow's) & Lamb/Goat (Scrapies): The rising incidence of Prions w/o proven methodologies of control means consumers should reduce consumption immediately:

In the past 10 years, you may have heard about something called mad cow's disease. Despite whether or not you encounter this in the food, prions are by far the least understood and beyond nasty when compared with viruses, bacteria and fungi.
So from an infectious disease standpoint, you should stay away from any meats that are capable of getting "mad" or infected by prions. According to researchers' and activists such as Dr. Day, consumers should understand that bovine and humans, sheeps/goats and humans can all get infected by prions. Anytime the risks to consumption are so great to your health and your loved ones, you should start to reduce your consumption of beef and lamb products.

2. Bird Flu: Until avian flu and related viral strains are consistently controlled and regularly reproducible, fowl consumption will remain a epidemiological risk to humans.

In the past 5 years, the word bird flu has been on a dramatic rise. The reason for the fears is because it has been found to cross-infect humans. The sheer mass production involved in farming fowl and the practices in the industry have setup a perfect storm for a major viral outbreak. While viruses are significantly less feared than prions, viruses are the second worse infectious disease to be reckoned with. Viruses of notoriety include Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), Ebola Virus, Avian Virus (H5N1), Rhinovirus (common cold), Herpes Virus, Cytomegalovirus (CMV) etc etc.

Even infectious diseases in computers are called computer 'viruses' rather than computer bacteria or computer fungi to highlight the rapid spread and lethality of the disease.

3. Pork Aside from vegetarians being safe from red alert meats, pork eaters will be glad to know that modern day pork is a very safe alternative to beef/chicken due to excellent measures in past decades within the pork industry:

Once thought of as the dirtiest animal on the planet, has come a long way of cleaning up itself (i.e Pulp Fiction Restaurant Scene).





With refrigeration and freezer technology, even trichinosis (parasitic worms) are becoming a historical memory rather than a current phenomenon. Freezing kills trichinella and other bacteria. In addition, trichinella is only found in carnivorous animals. By mandating that pigs either eat vegetarian pellet food or grass diets rather than raw meats, trichinella was significantly reduced in the last decades. Major reports from the Centers for Disease & Control as well as notable writeups in Chowhound and others had already started the re-initiation of pork as the cleaner and safer alternative.

Did you know: Secret #1? (Choice meat during the global recession)
With the economic downturn, pound for pound, pork is a less expensive meat to be eating and could be really worth considering given it is now safer than beef or chicken.

Did you know Secret #2?

Besides being low fat, pork is also rich in nutrients without being loaded with calories. It contains high levels of some essential B vitamins like B6, B12, niacin, thiamine, and riboflavin. In addition to the B vitamins, pork also contains high amounts of other nutrients, providing you with iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and zinc. And let's not forget the protein: A three ounce (3oz = 0.1875lbs) portion of pork provides nearly half of the daily requirements for protein.

Did you know Secret #3?

If you chose to eat pork quadriceps (inner quadriceps), you would be getting 95% lean, 6oz would supply your protein needs and the quadricep is the best area to acquire solid protein with excellent texture and flavor!!

Did you know Our Secret Sauce is 100% Diabetic Friendly?

Fresh Peppercorns, Himalayan Crystal Salt pre-marinated overnight onto pork cut into either dollops or cubes and basted with S-Agave (will be out soon -a mineralized rich agave ...). You can even skewer the pork with fresh rosemary sticks to drive the aroma and flavor into the meat.

Eating 6oz pork + our secret sauce will help you lose weight! Oprah & Dr. Oz have talked about my research in agave plants but we will be the first to showcase how eating 95% lean pork w/ our special sauce will help you lose weight and keep it off!
