• MELAVERDE – I am with you. Obviously there are harmful organic compounds, parasites, etc to be concerned about; however, I trust Mother Nature over Exxon or Monsanto every day. TBONE – That was an interesting read. Thanks for posting it.

• BLUEDOLPHIN – Now that idea is a keeper. I have lots of commercial stainless steel bowls I use in my kitchen and one of the larger ones would hold a damp top sheet. I will try that, You know what is even better than having someone say you’re nuts an…

• BLUEDOLPHIN – Thanks for the suggestion. At this point, I am comfortable with my top sheet being as wet as if I just took it out the dryer and even wetter than that in some spots. I think I am accustomed to more water than a spritzer could give me. …

• CHERIE03 – Originally I would take my top sheet out of the washer and use it straight away. I never wet the bottom sheet. The fan dries the sheet in a few hours, Since it is not wringing wet, I am not concerned about the mattress getting wet. Now, I…

• The posts here reveal something most of us in hot climates know. If you delay using AC or use it minimally, you better adapt to the natural climate. Once you become used to AC and then it goes out, you feel like you are going to die. The trick is to…

• It is really hot where I live and humid to boot. Today, it was over 100 degrees. I live in an older apartment and do not have central heating or air. I have an air conditioner in my bedroom and living room. I never run either air conditioner when I …

• NUTTGIRL – I am not a healthcare practitioner and can only rely on my own experiences and what I read. For the most part, I put no faith in anecdotal stories and I am skeptical of mainstream medical information as it is often based on profitability …

  in Maybe Hypothyroidism? Comment by Meditating
• Well, it appears a politician in the great state of Texas finally realized that land used for ethanol production might be better used for food production. Unfortunately, he wasn’t thinking of the likes of people like you and me. We don’t have any lo…

• CARMENTINA – the riots based on food shortages is really scary. People who live in areas and belong to socioeconomic classes where they never thought they would go without food are now subject to not having any. I think it is smart for these countri…

• ALIX – The Bush Administration has been lying to Americans about the true cause of the increase in world food prices, which is due to a real food shortage. Although US corporate media often intentionally herd their audience in via irrational fears, …

• DORIAN What if you used your blender to puree the meat down or you could provide her with some ground meat? Kitty might like some raw meat soup.

• TROUBLE – Here is a great link for you: Why do dogs eat grass. Maybe your cocker thinks lettuce is the missing green link. I’m sure this article is applicable to cats also. I used to have Persian cats and once a month or so I would give them spinach…

• BEANY If I understand your question, I believe the “edit” reminder that appears in the upper corner of your posts is just there to provide you with a means to access your post in case you want or need to edit what you wrote. I make so many typos tha…

• This is news to me, being that I like to MC and am hypothyroid. I was able to find one Dr.’s website stating people with hypothyroidism should avoid sugars but most people should. I would be interested in knowing more detail on the statement about t…

• GREEN GHOST – That is great information to have and I did not know that. My landlady was positively eat up with poison ivy last year. I have been clearing a back corner of my yard to plant some veggies in but was told there was poison ivy back there…

• HEALTHY WOMAN – Thank you for that link. That seems to answer the discrepancies I keep seeing regarding temperatures. Enzymes can also be denatured by ph changes so I am a little concerned about some of my homemade dressings.

• I got my garden started late this year. I hope by next year to be on track and have some semblance of of what I am doing. I currently have about 40 heriloom tomato plants. I originally planted 10 seed, 2 of each species, but not of them took. Then I…

• NAGEV – Right after I posted the post you responded to I realized I misread Moth’s post. I edited mine but yours posted before mine did and now the thread doesn’t flow (but that isn’t always the case anyway). Business people do anything to pinch a p…

• If producers will soak fresh produce in PPO and formaldehyde, it is hard to imagine there is anything they wouldn’t do. I Codex get’s there way, pretty soon they will all be irradiated.

• I think the one point I have seen about the bioavailability of lycopene is omitted from all these comments. Lycopene becomes more bioavailable when combined with an oil such as olive oil. It is fat soluable. This would explain why canned tomoatoes d…

• OMSHANTI – Thanks for your post. I had heard that the US had the wind potential to run the entire country but I never knew why. The video explained that. Thanks.

• RAW FOOD CHEF I think if you did more research you would discover that what we are doing with corn ethanol is actually bad for the environment and human health. I listened to a show on NPR a few weeks ago on this topic which discussed that sugar can…

• This is bizarre. These doctors know you can’t draw broad assumptions based on the lifestyle of a single patient. When I listen to them, it sounds like they have already decided, perhaps correctly, that a fruitarian diet is unhealthy if not dangerous…
