Does anybody know of any springs with fresh drinkable spring water in central Florida?
I live between Daytona Beach and Orlando. I couldn't find any springs on findaspring.com.
My body odor was gone as soon as I lowered my fat intake. This has been well documented by many including Dr. Dean Ornish. Coincidence? I don't think so.
That being said I hear what you are saying. If you eat tons of onions and garlic, you will c...
Zinc is a water-soluble anti-microbial mineral that is in blood, muscle and sweat. When your levels of circulating zinc are good, it is like an internal deoderant. Zinc is the supreme mineral for your immune system and liver. Meat, raw dairy and p...
oooooooooh I'm so jealous! I wish I could bathe in spring water! I wash my face and hands in spring water when I go to the spring to get my drinking water. I avoid showers and baths as much as possible because I only can shower in the super-high c...
Sweet smelling sweat and/or urine is a warning sign for prediabetes. Perhaps you should get your blood sugar levels checked and consider eating a lower sugar diet?

My display picture is from over a year ago.
Im just seriously getting raw, wild, and local food and more.. last year I was raw and pesticide free for a week, has been a journey since then, learning. Hopefully I will have some good pics up in time.
Wild game is not "low in fat" there are the organs such as brains, eyeballs, tongue, kidneys, bone marrow, and storage fat areas such as mesenteric (gut) fat.
The only reason I commented the last comment because frankly, I'm busy, and don't have time for your bullshit justifications of breathatarianism. Stop wasting your time and mine, and stop commenting on my site. One would hope that if someone calls your a fucking idiot, you have enough sense to leave them alone.
Thank you for discussing cholesterol with me. I believe that the information I have on the topic is correct. I suggest that if you doubt mainstream opinion you debate it with the relivant expert, who will be able to provide you with all the facts. Please do not post on my profile about this any more.

The Masai reported a high-fat, low-carbohydrate dietary pattern.
The rural Bantu reported a low-fat, high-carbohydrate dietary pattern.
The urban Bantu reported a high-fat, high-carbohydate dietary pattern
Observe both higher fat groups have higher TC. All groups have TC >150 which is quite elevated and places all groups at some risk. The association between fat intake LDL and mortality is very well demonstrated in Western populations. However exercise can help to reduce LDL substantially, which may help some of these remote populations.
My TC is sub 100, that is really "low cholesterol". You only see these kind of figures in people with very low fat intakes, which could include hunter gatherers, but it is more typical of peoples with minimal fat intake, i.e. where animal product consumption is minimal or not at all such as rural Chinese with TC as low as 94 mg/Dl. These findings are far more relivant to Western people vs those from remote African populations.
You said "I remember you posted something a while ago using George Mann's studies of Athersclorosis in the Masai as if to imply that they are not really healthy but that kind of selected citation doasn't hack it." And I agree that 1 citation isn't very compelling, quite prone to mistakes, it could even mislead.
However, it hacks it a lot better than speculation. What I think we do know is that wild game is low in fat, to the point where it will not elevate cholesterol dangerously. My suspicion is those tribes that use more dairy are the ones at risk.
Debbie Took asked me to forward this message to you. It looks like she is having technical issues with this site and wanted to respond to your message.
'Hi Jonathan. Sorry but technical problems mean I can't reply to your message. But you can contact me via the Contact Form at the rawforlife.co.uk website, where I will be happy to answer.'
There are a few Jonathans on here so hopefully I got the right one. She said you were from Florida.
since I find no reason to believe in 'allergies' against 'natural' appropriate stuff, I would think it's more likely just the fact that pineapple if bought in store is pretty much always unripe. Not that it matters to the situation perhaps.
...but...
Nicolas have you ever had a pineapple that does not give symptoms. In my experience around these hoods where we are there are practically no ripe pineapples..or perhaps a few dunno
Yes ma'am. Resting as completely as possible with eyes closed; getting enough water; avoiding too much sun; avoiding toxic substances (personal care products, cleaning products, etc.)
I enjoy writing about the deepest darkest secrets of my heart, about things I dont want to share with anyone..or lack the guts to share. Love letters mostly, but not always. If I have a dream I want to remember Ill write it down.
Come on woman! No time like the present! We may now have one more spot for our March 20 to May 22 internship session; this is truly a life-changing program and an amazing bargain...
Thanks Priyam! You are very kind and generous with your appreciation, and I appreciate the specificity. I agree with you completely that fasting is generally very poorly understood, mostly feared, and almost always avoided.
Though someone once su...
Hey Michele! We fast 8-10 people per year for 6 weeks and most of them have amazing experiences. Incidentally, though some people imagine there's a need to "work up" to a long fast like this, many are fasting this long for the first time; in fact,...
We dont want organic pasteurized, that is the same as conventional to us. Its been treated with something to kill it because that it what people do kill beautiful things it seems. Dead people.
