Hi I'm Anthony. I have what's called ulcerative colitis a digestive/autoimmune disease. "Medical doctors" say it's incurable. I say BULLSHIT! :)
I was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis about 10 years ago. I have been struggling with this for some time now and I'm ready to make some major changes to my diet and lifestyle. I was turned on to Raw food by Paul Nison, who suffered from UC until he healed himself with a raw food diet and a healthy lifestyle. I hope to learn about this lifestyle and share my experiences with all who want and need it.
My sole mission at this point in my life is to heal myself and return to living an extraordinary and meaningful life.

Hi Anthony!
Thanks for adding me as a friend! I hope you've had a lovely Christmas and a wish you all the best for the new year! As you may know, we have a lot in common, I've also been suffering from ulcerative colitis for ten years and trying everything to get better. Now I'm on the path to raw (finding the detoxing very difficult!) and I'm covinced this is the only way to get healthy!
Happy New year!/Therése

I'm not going to comment on climate change. But i will comment on carbon trading. Because they can produce such a consciousness of fear out of global warming - they are able to manipulate markets much more severely - and they seem to get away with...
