Revisiting Sugar - Seeing It As A Potential 'Good Guy'?
Revisiting Sugar - Seeing It As A Potential 'Good Guy'? We live in a world where sometimes it seems, everything goes, and nothing goes. We have answers for everything. And answers for nothing. As the saying goes, the more we know, the more we realize we don't actually know much at all. I've been avoiding sugar, especially regular cane sugar, for who knows how many years.  Many.  But I've been experimenting with diets, diet, and my personal understanding of the health and wellness of my body through the things I...

Carbon Monoxide Added To Meat - Okay For You?
Carbon Monoxide Added To Meat - Okay For You? Today I'm going to keep it very simple, and quick.  Simply a nudge for you to think a bit about something that you may be eating every day of your life yet are unaware. Something that by simply avoiding, your health may come back to you in ways that you thought it never would or could. Carbon monoxide.  A gas that is odorless, invisible, and in large amounts, deadly....a gas that makes it easy for people to end their own lives, with their... Read more...
OMAD - A Successful Lifestyle Choice Or A Short Lived Craze?
OMAD - A Successful Lifestyle Choice Or A Short Lived Diet Craze? Dietary Fasting: going without food intentionally (or not) for a select period of time.  'Intermittent Fasting': fasting for a period of time each day, and eating for only a period of time each day.  OMAD: One meal a day.  Otherwise known as 23:1. 23 hours of fasting.  1 hour of eating.  1 healthy meal.  And then back to fasting.  Some people may think this sounds crazy.  Some people may think this sounds intriguing.  Is it a craze? Or a pretty... Read more...
Sulfuric Foods As A Cause Of Discomfort?
Sulfuric Foods As A Cause Of Discomfort?  Methylsulfonylmethane. Also known as sulfur.  I talked about its benefits. About how the body needs it, and may times depletes it way too quickly and abundantly.  This post today is about the opposite of all of the above.  It's about the fact that some people, sometimes, are severely affected by sulfur in foods, and supplements. About how their bodies hold on to sulfur and don't regularly or very easily expose of it.  It's about how some people actually have excess sulfur in their bodies, therefore eating sulfurous foods and...

Paleomedicina - A Ketogenic-Carnivore Approach To Cancer & Autoimmunity
"Paleomedicina" A Ketogenic-Carnivore Approach To Cancer & Autoimmunity There is only one clinical practice that I am aware of, a place where individuals can go to receive cancer therapy based solely on what is known as the 'Paleolithic-Ketogenic' diet (or PKD). This facility is currently based out of Budapest, Hungary and is headed by a neurobiologist and clinical researcher named Dr. Zsófia Clemens. At this facility individuals with cancer participate in a 'treatment' based on eating only high fat animal based food, essentially bringing the body into a ketogenic state (fat fueling state) in order to stall, relieve, or eliminate...

'Wine' You Need To Experiment On Yourself
'Wine' You Need To Experiment On Yourself The more you read my blog and get to know me, the more you will see that I truly believe that every body is different, that we all need to experiment on ourselves, and that we should take everyone and everything else with only a grain of salt and willingness to test it out for ourselves, with no expectations at all except finding out what works best for us.  That's it.  That's good health in a nutshell. Today I want to explore this... Read more...
Fermented Food. Good? Bad? Questionable?
Fermented Food. Good? Bad? Questionable? This is an exploratory health study post for me. Well, all of my study posts are, but this one in particular has got me thinking.  We are told that too much lactic acid is bad and can lead to disease, heart attacks, and even death.  We call this, "lactic acidosis", or too much of a buildup of lactic acid in the bloodstream.  We are told that lactic acid in fermented foods and as a preservative are good for us.  We are told that lactic acid is naturally...

Healing Diets....All Meat or All Plant?
Healing Diets....All Meat or All Plant?  This is such an important topic that I will most likely bring up over and over again on this site. It's not an easy one to discuss. And like most things, it's definitely not black and white.  Healing Diets.  There are so many people out there claiming that their way cured them, healed them, brought them back to health.  Today I want to highlight two opposing ends of the spectrum: The Plant Based (only plants or mostly plants) Diet.  The Carnivore (only Animal or Mostly Animal Foods)...
