  • Thank You omshanti! Those are some very practical ideas. I appreciate your constructive input. It helps a lot. Cheers!
  • queenfluff I can empathasize. It (the paper-chase drill in our country) really is crazy. I have several degrees (one of them is a BA in Psychology) and I’m in a similar situation… wondering if I should get ‘yet another’ degree (that I can’t even af…
  • Reed’s Ginger Brew is quite good and can help with nausea, but if you want another nice ginger drink that doesn’t have carbonation you might want to try “Ginger Soother” by The Ginger People. http://www.gingerpeople.com/order_soother.html You can …

  • ikn you can watch it online: http://www.zeitgeistmovie.com/main.htm it’s about 2 hours long. There is no image for the first few minutes, just talking, but then the image appears too…
  • jkd_soccer801 thanks for posting this. I had suspected 911 was an inside job, still it is extremely disturbing to see it laid out so plainly. I wish the rest of the country realized this. The fact that Cheney & Bush have not been impeached is…
  • Moth you said it! And Good God can I relate! I sure wish you the best. It’s no fun to feel lonely.
  • KathrynL Good for you! It sounds like your mind and body are guiding you to healthier eating habits. Also it is not widely known, but of all dairy products – cheese in particular does indeed have real addictive properties. Here is a link citing The…
  • Those are all great ideas, but I especially second carrie6292’s Chocolate Pudding suggestion for dessert. If you make a nut-crust, pour the pudding into it, chill it, and serve it as a pie none of your SAD friends will complain. I’ve made it for th…
  • Meditating – hey thanks for the Plantain tip TreeOfLife – thanks for the Scroogle info. thecavsman – best of luck on your nutrition journey. You sound like you are doing well.
  • Wow! I haven’t logged on in awhile. Thanks for everyone’s input! :)
  • TreeOfLife Thank you so much for the info. I will definitely look into it. I actually live in the Hudson Valley NY, but plan to head up to Salem for an extended weekend. It’s nice to have some insight to the area. Cheers!
  • Here’s an article (titled “Your Bodybuilding Diet Gone Raw”) that might help: http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/437200… also here’s a Vegan Bodybuilding site. It’s not raw, but… it might have some merits: http://www.veganbodybuilding.com/
  • Hey—just here to say that I wish you both the best! Cheers!
  • i believe that there have been a few other members who have changed their username. Have you tried contacting Ray or Kandace? They can probably help.
  • Sorry James3112! DUH to me! I can laugh at myself when I make a mistake. I definitely misread your initial entry. You DID write parasite zapper. Thanks for making me laugh though (even if it’s at my own expense!) lololololololol etc…hahahahahahahaha…
  • Bug zappers are just indescriminantly destructive. From this NY Times article: http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=... An entomologist, Dr. Douglas W. Tallamy, and a high school student collected the insects killed by bug zappers over …
  • pulse thanks. Yes, I mean no disrespect to anyone’s beliefs either… btw… there really is a church of the flying spaghetti monster. http://www.venganza.org/ it’s a satire site…

  • pulse – i see your points and I wish you no ill I still do, however, admittedly have sensitivity to the potential of religious hijiking of a general discussion because of all of those previous threads of preaching & proselytizing. And I had po…

  • sorry james3112 – I didn’t mean it to you personally. honestly it’s just that there have been many other forums where Jesus & God have overtaken the conversation…. and there are actually a lot of atheists and non-christians here too.

  • good grief…. another God this and God that…. Jesus this and Jesus that… forum. I’m sorry (sort-of) to be facetious, but not everyone takes NUTRITION advice from the bible.

  • Addendum: Karuna was much quicker than me with listing good sources of calcium! What a great list she posted. Thanks!
  • Hey Moth – From the NotMilk website (http://www.notmilk.com/o.html) I pasted this quote below from Dr. Neal Barnard: “What appears to be important in bone metabolism is not calcium intake, but calcium balance. The loss of bone integrity among man…

  • TomsMom – no sweat! I didn’t think you sounded snotty, but I appreciate your consideration in thinking of me. Sometimes I think I come off as rather gruff & I don’t mean to either. This site is really great, but communicating in writing leaves…
  • great points chicory Adequate Vitamin D is also essential for the body to properly absorb & utilize dietary calcium. And you’re right – most people really do not get enough vitamin D. It is probably the most ‘taken for granted’ vitamin.
  • TomsMom – i agree with you and i too am skeptical regarding nutrition advice from the US government. This particular study was not US based, but did utilize some of their data (US National Institutes of Health). I don’t think anyone should immedia…
  • Hi chakra essence, please note that I’m not trying to convince you to eat fish. But just wish to share with you some research data…. so here is some info from international health news… http://www.vvv.com/HealthNews/fish_oils.htm “The main compone…
  • it’s an acronym for Standard American Diet. Actually I should say that’s what it stands for here in a raw food site because it can also be an acronym for other things like Seasonal Affective Disorder
  • Moth I like your Watermelon idea… simplicity at it’s finest.
  • Paxton Squiggledy – I sincerely wish the best for your Mom. Cheers PS- Weight Bearing exercise (walking, weight-lifting etc…) is known to help maintain bone structure (you probably are aware of this, but I figured it’s worth mentioning…) oh – sor…
