The potatoe, or patato, or papa, in the case of the sweet variety of potato, yams, or yama or kamara, is a starchy, tuberous crop from the perennial nightshade Solanum tuberosum (standard strain from Andes). The word “potato” may refer either to the plant itself or to the edible tuber that is believed to have originated in the Andes mountains four centuries back. The potato today is a staple food throughout the world, just behind wheat, rice and corn. They say that the leaves of the plant are toxic I haven’t noticed much of a toxin though.

I selected potatoes for the starters Nutritional Diversity in part because they are cheap, they are popular, they are easy to get, and easy to grow. Strong cultures have depended on them, and paled in their absence. Potatoes are a super-food, and have super-food aspects to them especially seen to it’s growers. The starchy tuber is one of the only plants like it I mention in ND text, like the cassava plant whose leaves are also said to contain toxins, but in small amounts, up to ten hands a day, I have found them to be a very potent super food.

Potato Nutrition

The potato is a super food carbohydrate for excellent energy. It is packed with minerals and vitamins, and specific ones that support testosterone production – a production that should be a key focus of human optimization. You will see the potato’s elements on the side of about every workout supplement for that reason; vitamin B₆ (10% of daily need) and trace amounts of thiamine, riboflavin, folate, niacin, magnesium, phosphorus, iron, and zinc, all potatoes are a great source of. The bargain gym diet remains largely rice, pasta and chicken, where it should be potatoes, and chicken, also two items you can grow yourself and get the other super food chicken eggs out of it too. Chicken and ricer-s will definitely do yourselves a favor buy grabbing a bag of potatoes next time around, and even if your on a super budget, go ahead and switch half that days rice and pastas consumption to potato in a compromise. Upgrade always, I say.

Like plantains, bananas, ginger, avocado, and cassava tuber, potatos are medicinal foods for the colon. Treatment of digestive track is key especially for folks who have done a lot of damage with coffee, or other high acid, or alcoholic consumption.

Those trying to stay on a low glycemic diet, (1) maybe hurting themselves, (2) if are that sure of themselves, they may shy from potatoes as they are somewhat high on the glycemic index.

As an avid student of our world nature and nutrition myself I can’t help but notice the relationship between potato’s and strong, town cultures. Through DNA and other testing it has been thought the tuber food was first domesticated in the Andes Mountains regions now called Bolivia and Chile. This region is also where a super human model you could say ran the mountain tops, relaying important information to the Incan Rulers.

Chasqui, Chaski or Chaskis, were runners, in a pony express sort of relay system with trails and rest shacks from the B.C.’s to the 1600 AD’s, and were able to move quickly through rough terrains and rope bridges. It is not known weather every member of the society participated in this function or just a select few dedicated athletes, but the runners could move messages over 240km (155 miles) per day on foot without horse. They used a modified conch shell trumpet to signal the next runner resting at his chaski-wasi, resting place telling him to prepare to run, which indicates these were non stop runners who took a lot of pride in their athletic ability and performance. These guys were true masters of their arts and their world, who created quality rope bridges, which many of them still stand today able to be walked across regularly.

Potato’s are also staples to the fighting Irish and the other fighting giants in that part of world. Potatoes have made their way into a staple for most worldly cultures and diets – and I would say that’s a strong crop dynamic also.

Potatoes are good for the bones, the blood, and collagen production to boot. They are even high in Vitamin C, keeping off infectious elements, and helping the absorption of other vitamins into the system.

Potato’s are a good balancing food which means they bring healthy proportions of body masses into better balance.

Medicinal Use of Potato

The iron, phosphorous, calcium, magnesium, and zinc in potatoes all contribute to the building and maintenance of bone structure and strength. The potato’s fiber, potassium, vitamin C, and vitamin B6 content, coupled with its lack of cholesterol, all support heart health.

Colon

Use plantains, potatos, ginger, and avocados to prevent and to treat colon problems. The high fiber content keep the bowl traffic at pace, another reason I highly recommend them for Nutritional Diversity’s and diet plans.

A Lower Blood Pressure & LDL (bad) Cholesterol Food

Potatoes may help lower blood pressure for several reasons. Victoria Jarzabkowski, a nutritionist with the Fitness Institute of Texas at The University of Texas at Austin, said that the fiber found in potatoes can help lower cholesterol by binding with cholesterol in the blood. “After it binds, we excrete it,” she said.

Please remember that the strongest potato is going to come from a permaculture, hopefully your own, and also remember that potatos from the grocery store are likely high in gyphosate – Roundup sprays, and poisons, which most Americans today test positive for cancer causing levels of these toxins.

Permaculture

Potato plants are strong, aggressive perennials that grow about 60 cm (24 in) high, depending on variety, with the leaves dying back after flowering, fruiting and tuber formation. They bear white, pink, red, blue, or purple flowers with yellow stamens, much like passion fruit grows. In general, the tubers (root system parts) of varieties with white flowers have white skins, while those of varieties with colored flowers tend to have pinkish skins.

A cool season crop the maximum tuber formation occurs when soil temperature is 60 F to 70 F and the tuber formation stops when soil temperature hits 80 F. Mulching soil with straw or other organic matter can help reduce soil temperature. Research has shown that maintaining a 6-inch-thick “till-less” straw layer around potatoes keeps soil temperatures 10 degrees lower. Potatoes are sensitive to drought so be sure to keep plants consistently moist, especially when plants flower and right after, since this is the peak time when tubers are forming.

Potatoes are mostly cross-pollinated by insects such as bumblebees, which carry pollen from other potato plants, though a substantial amount of self-fertilizing occurs as well. Tubers form in response to decreasing day length, although this tendency has been minimized in commercial varieties. Potato can grow well in many different climates.

Potatoes grow fine in boxes or 5 gallon buckets, making them a great member to aquaponics and other home permaculture growing or urban based residential growing systems.

Potato mono-crops like all mono crops have been historically susceptible and open to diseases and crop wipe-outs.

Just a few months ago two GMO potato species have been approved by the USFDA for production. So it’s important to start getting your potato crop together now.

GYM EDGE

Chicken and ricer-s will definitely do yourselves a favor buy grabbing a bag of potatoes instead of the one of rice or pasta.

Consume with avocados in the afternoon and evening times, and without for breakfast or morning times. As always GYM EDGERS should be breaking up their portions to one bite /heaping tablespoon of food per every ten pounds of body weight per increment or eating session. Remember you will get the best edge, getting from a small permaculture farm. They are out there and it’s a heavy switch.

Those of you on a ketogenic diet, are likely to pass this up. Those of you looking to stack on muscle, want to put this in.

Subject: Podcast

Dear PODCAST,

I hope this message finds you well. My name is Brandon Angel, and I’m reaching out because I believe your audience would benefit tremendously from hearing the real truth about nutrition—the truth that mainstream health industries don’t want people to know.

For years, we’ve been fed incomplete, one-dimensional diets that keep people weak, sick, and dependent. I’ve spent a decade deep in the jungles of Central and South America, studying ancient nutrition, biological optimization, and the true power of Nutritional Diversity. What I uncovered has the potential to revolutionize health, performance, and human resilience.

Why This Interview Will Resonate With Your Audience:

✅ The Food War is Real: How modern diets, processed foods, and corporate agendas have systematically stripped people of their biological power.
✅ Nutritional Diversity – The Missing Link: Why a highly diverse, unprocessed diet outperforms every mainstream trend (vegan, carnivore, keto, etc.) in energy, cognition, and longevity.
✅ The Microbiome = Human Potential: How gut health, plant and animal diversity, and regenerative farming can restore strength, mental clarity, and instinct in ways modern medicine never will.
✅ My Story – A War Against the System: From escaping false charges to living in the jungle to uncovering the ultimate nutrition strategy—this is not just another health podcast episode.
✅ The Movement Has Started: Nutritional Diversity is gaining momentum, and we’re calling on pioneers in health, fitness, and self-optimization to join the mission.
✅ A Personal Story of Discovery and Loss: I arrived in Panama, intending to visit my uncle, only to find myself instead claiming his remains. As I searched for answers about his life, I uncovered not just his story but an entire hidden world of knowledge that was slipping away. That journey of grief, revelation, and discovery led me to a truth so profound that it changed everything I thought I knew about health and survival. His murder, and those of several other Americans, were later investigated in a Dateline special and covered in bestselling books, exposing a shocking web of crime that many had tried to keep buried.

Why This Moment Matters – The Pivotal Shift We All Need

We are standing at a critical turning point—a moment where humanity must reclaim its strength, intelligence, and resilience. The modern food system is broken, and its impact is undeniable. But we don’t have to stay trapped in it.

Nutritional Diversity is the revolution we need. It’s not just about food—it’s about breaking free from a system designed to weaken us and returning to a way of eating that unlocks true human potential.

This isn’t just another health trend. This is the key to mental clarity, physical dominance, and longevity—the missing piece in performance, recovery, and disease prevention. The solution has been right in front of us all along, and now, it’s time to take it back.

I’d love the opportunity to dive deep on your podcast and deliver a raw, high-impact conversation that your listeners won’t forget. If this aligns with your mission and audience, let’s lock in a date and make it happen.

Looking forward to your thoughts!

Best,

“Who controls the food supply controls the people.” – Henry Kissinger [i]

Imagine If 20% of the Population Took Action Today: A Vision for Nutritional Diversity and Land Restoration

A Future Shaped by Small Alternative Agricultures

Imagine if, starting today, one in five people took up the challenge of cultivating small-scale alternative agriculture—permaculture food forests, regenerative farms, nutrient-dense wild plots, and biodiverse gardens—all designed to support the Nutritional Diversity Diet.

Where would we be in five, ten, or twenty years?

Five Years: The Awakening of the Land

Millions of small plots, backyards, and vacant lands transformed into living, breathing ecosystems.
Urban and rural landscapes are interwoven with perennial food systems, soil-building crops, and high-density nutrition.
Local communities regaining food sovereignty, free from chemical-dependent supply chains.
A new generation of eco-entrepreneurs emerges, pioneering micro-farms that thrive on biodiversity, not monoculture.

Ten Years: The Turning Point

Soil once depleted by industrial agriculture now teeming with life, enriched by microbial diversity.
A shift in global nutrition: Gut health improves, disease rates drop, and food security becomes decentralized.
Rivers and oceans heal as synthetic fertilizers and agricultural runoff disappear.
AI-driven ecological monitoring and drone-assisted reforestation bring back lost biodiversity.
Carbon sequestration skyrockets as trees, fungi, and regenerative landscapes capture atmospheric carbon at scale.

Twenty Years: A Thriving Regenerative Civilization

Industrial farming is replaced by hyper-diverse, closed-loop food systems.
A self-sustaining, nutritionally complete ecosystem supports human health and planetary stability.
No longer a “niche practice,” biodiverse agriculture becomes the foundation of global food production.
The climate stabilizes, deserts are reclaimed, and the world breathes in balance with nature.
Humanity lives longer, stronger, and more harmoniously, nourished by food systems that heal instead of harm.

Call to Action: The Time Is Now

This is not a distant dream—it is a blueprint for action. With the right support, incentives, and knowledge-sharing networks, we can make this vision a reality.

We propose the Nutritional Diversity Ecological Enhancement Initiative, a scalable, measurable, and globally replicable system to:
✅ Provide tools, education, and guidance to small-scale land stewards.
✅ Establish financial and technological support for high-diversity micro-farms.
✅ Integrate AI, drone technology, and microbial soil innovations for rapid ecosystem regeneration.
✅ Create global food security by focusing on nutrient density over yield quantity.
✅ Develop decentralized marketplaces, ensuring farmers thrive economically while enhancing ecosystems.

We invite partners, visionaries, and world leaders to be part of this movement—to fund, support, and ignite a regenerative revolution.

🌱 The first seeds of change are ready to be planted. Will you be among the first to grow the future?

What Happens When We Take Action?

When 20% of the population actively participates in alternative agriculture and land regeneration, we initiate a chain reaction—one that transforms food systems, ecosystems, human health, and even the global economy.

Phase 1: The Shift Begins (Years 1-5)

People reclaim land—from vacant lots to degraded soil, rooftops to backyards—turning them into diverse, regenerative food systems.
Microbial restoration kicks in as synthetic inputs are abandoned in favor of probiotic soil amendments, composting, and mycoremediation.
Communities reconnect through local food exchanges, cooperative farming models, and educational hubs that teach Nutritional Diversity principles.
Corporate agriculture feels the shift—as millions of people begin sourcing food from local, nutrient-dense, chemical-free alternatives.
Consumer health improves as gut microbiomes are restored, chronic disease rates decline, and processed food dependency weakens.

Phase 2: The Turning Point (Years 5-10)

A new agricultural economy emerges, where small-scale, biodiverse farms outperform industrial monocultures in nutrition, sustainability, and resilience.
Desertified lands begin to heal, carbon is pulled from the atmosphere, and regenerative land practices stabilize microclimates.
Big agriculture is forced to adapt—industries pivot to regenerative practices or face extinction as decentralized food systems thrive.
Nutritional intelligence spreads, with functional medicine and whole-food-based nutrition becoming the global standard.
Biodiversity explodes—pollinators, wildlife, and native plants return, forming self-sustaining ecosystems within human environments.

Phase 3: A Regenerative Future (Years 10-20)

Human health reaches a new peak, with stronger immune systems, fewer metabolic diseases, and a lifespan extended by decades through nutrient-rich diets.
The climate crisis reverses itself, as forests, soil, and mycorrhizal networks become major carbon sinks, cooling the planet naturally.
Oceans heal, as agricultural runoff ceases, marine food chains restore, and dead zones shrink.
New economic powerhouses emerge, built on regenerative production, decentralized supply chains, and abundance-based commerce.
Governments and corporations embrace the movement, integrating nutritional diversity farming and ecosystem repair into global policy.

The Inevitable Future—If We Act Now

This isn’t speculation—this will happen if enough people take action. The first adopters set the stage, and as results multiply, the movement scales exponentially.

The Nutritional Diversity Ecological Enhancement Initiative is designed to facilitate, accelerate, and scale this transformation.

👉 We have the tools. We have the knowledge. We have the opportunity.

🔥 The only question is: How fast do we want this future to arrive?

….. another question could be can we implement through the younger generation and video games!???

REALEST WORLD PROPOSAL

Published

Brandon Angel

Cover Letter for Submission to the Real World Education Center

Subject: Proposal Submission – Nutritional Diversity Ecological Enhancement Program

Dear REAL WORLD UNIVERSITY,

Both the political and social achievements of your team have deeply inspired me, and my time at your university has equipped me with invaluable skills. I first joined as a member, then as a council member, driven by sheer admiration, appreciation, and a desire to support your mission.

Thirteen years ago, my only child—my princess—was taken from me (she was 9 at the time and completely infatuated with me as any young girl with her Dad, and Honorable Military Hero to boot [story]), kidnapped by her mother, and conditioned to hate me. I had hoped to guide her toward the Real World University, the most powerful entrepreneurial education platform in existence today. Freedom and independent free thought! At the time, I could not have foreseen the incredible socio-political landscape your team would create and the immense possibilities you continue to build. It is nothing short of extraordinary.

Through my now 12 years of work in the equatorial tropical regions, I have come to understand that true freedom is rooted in the “realest world”—the natural world that God gifted us. This world, like our cities, has been under attack. We must take the power back. It is our disconnection from nature and natural workings, that renders us vulnerable, that makes us enslaveable.

A calling has been screaming at me—from above, from below, and from the most remarkable people I have ever known. I can’t help but wonder if your team—one of the last strongholds of truth and action—is our greatest chance at escaping toxicity and reintegrating with the realest world in a way that not only restores but enhances culture, health, and builds the harmonious life as God hopes us to see us achieve. Because I know, without question, that this reconnection is the ultimate solution to it all.

I am writing to submit our proposal for the Nutritional Diversity Ecological Enhancement Program (NDEEP) to the Real World Education Center. This initiative presents a groundbreaking, nature-based solution for restoring ecosystems, improving biodiversity, and revolutionizing sustainable food systems through nutritional diversity, regenerative agriculture, and technological innovation.

With over 12 years of experience in Latin America, I have developed and tested a scalable system that restores depleted soils, enhances food security, promotes carbon sequestration, and revitalizes biodiversity hotspots—all while improving human health and social resilience. By leveraging drone technology, AI-driven ecological monitoring, and probiotic soil restoration techniques, NDEEP aligns with global environmental goals and has the potential to reverse species loss, combat climate change, and reshape the future of ecological restoration worldwide.

I strongly believe that education and hands-on implementation are key to real environmental progress, and I am eager to collaborate with the Real World Education Center to bring this innovative model into action. I welcome the opportunity to discuss this proposal further and explore how we can work together to create tangible, lasting change for our planet.

Please find the NDEEP proposal attached. I look forward to your thoughts and would be happy to provide additional details as needed.
