Third-Class (Nutrient-Barren) Foods

These aren’t really foods; rather they are foodstuffs that have had all their
nutrients refined right out of them. While some nutrients may be added back
in for nutritional and marketing purposes, most of the ingredients are
pleasure-stimulating chemicals that leave you fat and sick. This Class of
foodstuffs includes refined foods of both plant and animal origin. These
foodstuffs offer nothing except temporary pleasure stimulation and lots of calories. It is
recommended that you eat these foods rarely, or avoid them all together.

Third-Class (Nutrient-Barren) Foods include:
 Refined cereals with added sugar
 Refined “enriched” grain products, such as white bread, white rice, and white pasta
 Candy, cookies and cake

Second-Class (Nutrient-Poor) Foods

These are arguably “whole foods” of animal origin that are rich in some
nutrients, such as protein—but are missing whole categories of other essential
nutrients that keep you healthy, such as fiber and phytochemicals. These foods
are thus considered nutrient-poor because of what they don’t contain, as well as
what they do contain—such as anti-nutrients like saturated animal fat and cholesterol (which the
body does not need from food, along with certain forms of nutrients such as vitamin A, which
promote disease when eaten in significant quantities by human beings). Also, animal protein is
typically prepared in ways that accentuate the toxic properties of these foods.

You can survive on nutrient-poor food, but you can't thrive with all of the Success Results. It is
recommended that you maintain a diet that includes no more than 10% animal foods, if you choose
to eat them at all.

Second-Class (Nutrient-Poor) Foods include:
 Eggs,
 Dairy (including products like butter, milk and cheese)
 Meat (such as chicken, fish, pork, and beef)
