New Conspiracy Theory
I'm targetting this post to "MythingLink" in particular because of his comment that "Mel Gibson's character in Conspiracy Theory doesn't have anything over on me." Although, anyone who's into conspiracy theories might be interested in this one. I'm a bit of a conspiracy junkie myself and strongly believe in quite a few of them - especially the ones where "the government is out to get us"! This has nothing to do with Stargate SG1 but it is my own personal conspiracy theory and is based equally on fact, experience, conjecture and my suspicious mind. It starts with some information I obtained from an audiocassette taped lecture by Dr. Robert C. Beck at an alternative health conference. The gist of the information is that GARLIC IS BAD FOR YOU! According to Beck, he has scientifically proven that garlic is a brain poison and harmful to our intelligence. I've transcribed the segment from the tape and will quote it verbatim below. As for my personal conspiracy theory on the subject, I theorize that the government has conspired to suppress this information in an effort to keep a large portion of the population "DUMBED DOWN" - specifically those who eat and supplement with garlic! Why would they want to do that you might ask? It is easier to CONTROL and manipulate a less intelligent population. Garlic is just one of many substances and programs the government employs to accomplish their agenda of creating a weak, stupid, dependant, brainwashed and controllable population. I could rant on about this for much longer but instead I'll present the transcript where this garlic info originated. Please note that this was a 5 minute long, ad lib, anti-garlic statement by Dr. Beck made during a 100 minute lecture on the health benefits of Electro-medicine.

Excerpts from A lecture by; Dr. Robert (Bob) C. Beck, D. Sc. Whole Life Expo, March 1996, Seattle WA
"...The reason garlic is so toxic, the sulfone - S U L F O N E - hydroxyl ion does penetrate the blood/brain barrier just like DMSO and is a specific poison for higher life forms and brain cells. We discovered this much to our horror when I was the world's largest manufacturer of ethical EEG biofeedback equipment. We'd have people come back from lunch that looked clinically dead on an encephalograph - which we used to calibrate their progress. Well, what happened? Well, I went to an Italian restaurant and there was some garlic in my salad dressing! So we had 'em sign things that they wouldn't touch garlic before classes or we were wasting their time, their money and my time. I guess you - those of you who are pilots or have been in flight tests - I was in flight test engineering in Doc Hallan's group in the fifties. The flight surgeon would come around every month and remind all of us - don't you dare touch any garlic seventy two hours before you fly one of our airplanes because it'll double or triple your
reaction time. You're three times slower than you would be if you had had a few drops of garlic. Well, we didn't know why for twenty years later until I owned the Alpha-Metrics Corporation - we were building biofeedback equipment and found out that garlic totally desynchronizes your brain waves. So I funded a study at Stanford -
and sure enough they found that it's a poison. You can rub a clove of garlic on your foot - on the sole of your
foot - and you can smell it shortly, later on your wrists. So it penetrates the body. This is why DMSO smells a lot like garlic - that sulfone hydroxyl ion penetrates all the barriers including the corpus callosum in the brain. Any of you who are organic gardeners know that if you don't want to use DDT, that garlic will kill anything in the way of
insects. Now, most people have heard, most of their lives that garlic is good for you and we put those people in the same class of ignorance as the mothers who, at the turn of the century would buy morphine sulfate in the drugstore and give it to their babies to put 'em to sleep. And after the Harrison Act - that was outlawed. Someday garlic will be outlawed. When you see what it actually does to your body - I know some of you don't believe me, some of you are vegetarians and you think garlic is good for you. Just know that no Ashram in India will permit garlic on the premises because they know how stupid it makes the people. Even the Church of Scientology, heaven forbid, would keelhaul anybody who brought any garlic or any garlic salt or any salad dressing with garlic onto the ships - the Diana, the Apollo. And garlic is strictly forbidden in many of the places of higher learning. Now you don't want to hear this but it is true. You'll find that this is absolutely a fact. If you have any patients who have low grade headaches or attention deficit, they can't quite focus on the computer in the afternoon, just do an experiment - you owe it to yourselves - take those people off of garlic and see how much better they get, very very shortly. And then, let them eat a little garlic after about three weeks. They'll say - My God, I had no idea that this was the cause of our problems. And this includes the de-skunked garlics, Kyolics,
some of the other products. Very unpopular, but I've gotta tell you the truth ..."
I know this post is running a little long so I'll leave it at that for now and see what kind of responses I get. Let me finish by saying that nearly everyone I know who has heard this tape has made a serious effort to give up or at least cut back on their garlic consumption. Also, I've sent a copy of the transcript and cassette tape to Nexus Magazine
http://www.nexusmagazine.com/ and they printed the transcript in their "Letters to the Editor" section. So far, all of the feedback from the article has been supportive of this Anti-garlic information. Judge for yourself! gfps
