Rape, the most toxic of all food-oil plants that has no natural insectoid predators, is a weed that can grow vigorously in most climates and terrains throughout North America. Thomas explains that cyanide inhibits the production of ATP in our bodies. Thomas believes that ingestion of rape over time may cause glaucoma. Thomas also believes that ingestion of rape over several years causes other vision irregularities such as retinitis. In this respect, glaucoma has much in common with hair loss, Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy and hearing problems.
Rape is an acetlycholinesterase inhibitor.
Acetylcholine is critical to the transmission of signals from nerves to muscles. When the normal function of aceytlcholinesterase is compromised, nerve fibers are not able to send the signals properly and muscles will not respond as expected. In the last 20 years we have seen a dramatic increase in muscular disorders such as multiple sclerosis and cerebral palsy. There are many people throughout the country who are convinced that rape oil is poisonous to the human body and that the body digests rape in such a fashion that congests the blood and restricts the flow of lymph fluid which can cause a myriad of physical and psychological disorders. Thomas recommends that anybody who desires to enjoy optimal health must take personal responsibility for what they put into their bodies.
