Yes I think grains are a lot more damaging than most people think. Also if they were using torches for light that gave off smoke they could have been suseptible to lung cancer without smoking. Heart disease can be caused by low niacin levels and o...

- Gosh- I don't know when I'm coming to your neck of the woods. We just bought a house and I started a new job recently, so I don't think we'll be traveling much for awhile- unless we can score some work across the pond or if my friend in London decided to get married! Can you help me get a grant to search for Nessie? ;-)

Ani Phyo would be good, given your ingredients. I like Ani Phyo's Raw Kitchen. Her stuff is very sweet and heavy, though, IMHO.
