• Flexible spending accounts and IRAs are a great place to put money if your employer offers them. The money is not taxed, so your monthly paycheck stays about the same. However I don’t know whether you could put away enough to cover medical bills fro…

• Sick. The stench of their lies burns my nostrils. It smells even worse than the tv commercial which claimed that coal burning is a clean source of energy.

• I enjoyed the tea processing article. It must have taken the Chinese a long time to figure all of that out. There is a funny myth about how the first tea plant came into existence: The Buddha of Infinite Compassion was meditating in his cave when he…

• There are so many different ways of eating raw that the study’s conclusion must be too broad. It is possible for a raw diet to be nutritionally imbalanced, just as cooked-food diets can be imbalanced. I guess that only 2/3 of the participants ate a …

• Olive oil works, except that it’s more difficult to rinse hair off the razor. Shaving with a gummed up razor can lead to more in-grown hair.

• Whatever cooked food you decide to eat, good food combining will help your body to eliminate it as soon as possible. If you’re going to eat salmon, have it with some green veggies, but not with starches. Proteins need about four hours to digest. If …

• Peas, lettuce, and smaller root veggies would be good planting choices. Tomatoes and melons would be more challenging.

• If you feel like taking a long nap after eating, then you probably ate too much. Digestion requires quite a bit of energy, so it’s good to give your body a break.

• Cauliflower always makes me ill; it won’t go down my throat. When I tried it raw with a curry sauce my eyes watered and I gagged. Even the family rabbit hates it. He’ll push the offensive vegetable out of his dish and roll it into a corner where it …

• Invest in some georgous pants that fit you perfectly at your present weight. Get a pair that you normally wouldn’t be able to afford. Take them to a tailor to ensure that the fit is perfect: not too tight, not too loose. You’ll look darned good, and…

• I started taking a tablespoon every day in my green shakes a few months ago and the difference is huge: more energy and more mental clarity. Maybe it’s the B12?

• I’m with Ardesmond2. Green juice is key, any green juice: cilantro, parsley, kale, spinach, celery, etc. After a few drinks, your liver stops processing carbohydrates because it needs to work on the alcohol (which it regards as poison), so all of th…

• Poor food combining could be the problem. I can’t find the thread where food combining is discussed, but this chart is helpful: http://www.thewolfeclinic.com/foodcombining.html I like complex meals, but they always make me bloat up. If I eat a date-…

• I love cilantro juice. Blend cilantro with 16oz water and then strain through a nut milk bag. You’ll run around for the rest of the day higher than a Georgia pine tree.

• It’s fine to leave the beast on. The worst that can happen is that your food will overdehydrate. I never had the patience to dehydrate something for over 24 hours. The onion bread smells so wonderful that it’s easy to break off large chunks and eat …
