This morning I received a Newsletter from Dr. McDougall. Yes, Dr. McDougall. I'm not convinced no animal foods are necessary, but at the same time I believe there are many valuable nutrients in potatoes and they are sooo low cal if eaten correctly and FILLING! and low cost! Don't get me started because this is about SALT.

So even the 'good' Dr. feels people are misguided about the evil SALT empire.

Quote from the British Medical Journal (2002):3
 
“Lowering sodium intake may have adverse effects on vascular endothelium through stimulation of the renin-angiotensin system and on serum total and low density lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations. In cohort studies, lower salt intake in people with hypertension has been associated with higher levels of cardiovascular disease and in general populations with greater all cause mortality.”
 
Quote about the NHANES III study from the Journal of General Internal Medicine (2008)4
 
“Observed associations of lower sodium with higher mortality were modest and mostly not statistically significant. However, these findings also suggest that for the general US adult population, higher sodium is unlikely to be independently associated with higher CVD or all-cause mortality.”

Don't shoot the messenger 

A River Runs Through Me

Well, I think I'm done, I think. It's been about an hour now. After the first 10-15 minutes I had a pretty good go. It might have been better if I hadn't had a lot of wine on Friday. Wine always purges me also. After that I had a small go and a half hour or so later 2 showers heh heh- mostly water.

I am glad something happened though as I've heard with some people nothing happens.

And If anything, It was exciting to do something new, yes? Anticipation!

I don't feel quite right though, so maybe I'm not done yet.

BCG07, I don't know if I want to do it again tomorrow Maybe once a week?

Happy day everybody!

Not yet BCG07,

But Oh what fun! I'm about to mix up my water. I have Real Salt too. I hope this works for me as others    it would be nice to have something to count on, that's dependable and does the job, when times are hard and things get rough...

Here we go!

Thanx a lot Nicola

Yippie Kai Yay!

Hi Paleokyle,

have you ever tried using kelp powder in a salt shaker as a salt substitute??? Just thinking out loud 

That was a fun read. And if it works like everyone says, terrific since I've never been very regular. Though lately, the last week, I have 

I'll do this Sunday so I'll be sure to be home when the shit starts flying.  What?

I'm excited about it.

Best wishes!

Sounds rough 

I have to tell you that your descriptions are graphic and perhaps another visit to a Hospital Emergency Room might not be a bad thing. Otherwise, try everything you can. Google, Google, Google. It might be something very simple.

Good luck,
Best wishes,

oh, yes, I think veggie juice would be alright- but not carrots

Okay I take back my juice fast idea because I'd missed the candida issue. A juice fast would be a bad move if one is already suffering from a yeast infection. Yeast feeds on sugar and juice is pure sugar. 

Those videos terrify me! m&ms! Potato chips! And that's likely the good stuff.

I wonder what they feed the lamb from Australia in my market. They do sell Maverick Grass fed Beef and Buffalo.

And now with the FDA approving irradiation for geens, my heart sinks more and more.

I need a Garden!

Okay, confession. It's difficult sometimes to reveal one truth while not remembering another. What?

That, is like, Steak Tartar! Which I do happen to love! And recently, well, time is fleeting... not that long ago I was eating a Buffalo Tartar inspired by Hans Dehmelt, a Nobel Prize Winner.

My Buffalo Tartar

If you don't mind nuts, chopped brazil nuts are wonderful in it.

Interestingly, yours has Olive oil. I found, and this may be the same with Olive Oil, that by adding the ground flax, the fat released help preserve the portions from oxidation in the fridge. The glass jars showed nice, red Buffalo Tartar. However a few times, I left the flax out, the meat went gray and just didn't have the same, something. I wonder if the Olive Oil would do the same thing.

My remark about Cow has more to do with all the Cancer talk. And the Neu5Gc stuff:

http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2003/09/030930055440.htm

Though Neu5Gc is also in Pork and Lamb. But type Beef Cancer into Google and look out! Type Lamb Cancer and right at the top is a link that says, maybe it helps with breast cancer. Or type pork in and you still don't find what you find with Beef.

So even though when weak, I'll buy a rib eye, something doesn't sit well with me.

And you don't hear the same thing regarding chicken or fish or ferrets 

Lastly  of course maybe it all has to do with raw vs cooked, but finding Neu5Gc in human tumors is scary.

and stuff.

For a while I was eating raw steak cut into chunks, with Soy and some Italian seasoning and it was good. But I gotta say the rarest of steak with salt and melting fat is killer!

This coming from someone who will still partakes occasionally of Cow, but feels lamb and other animals seem to cause less problems in humans as far as we know.

If people are not willing to pay for real healers, then I will just keep all this knowledge to myself as a hobby and turn away those who ask for my help.

I feel for your dilemma also but I'll tell you that the sentence above bothers me. Even if you can't make a living at healing, you should not keep it to yourself and turn people away. Or maybe you will help people as a hobby? Did I misunderstand?

I agree with Satya, write a book about the story of your success. It's a long road, but people often learn best by example. Many people don't understand the significance. Then, many do and if you put yourself out there long enough, they'll find you.

And I'll go out on a limb. If your Family supports your decision, then you might take a shot at it for a certain amount of time. If they don't, I don't know, Family First is a big issue with me.

Hope  didn't offend. I'm hoping to become a nutritional consultant and help where I can. My Father won't believe a word out of my mouth unless I have a piece of paper stating I passed some test DOHHH!!!

Best wishes,

(just in case you eat cooked once in a while, or can find raw sardines)

Sadly, I've been eating more sardines than salmon and other fish lately which is why I decided to Google Sardines vs Salmon and found this article from the times-
