I don't drink tap water. I drink bottled. I know there are tons of debates on whether or not bottled is better than tap, but I can say that I don't get headaches and I don't get a nasty after taste with most bottled water as I did with that "fi

Oil Pulling helps by keeping your mouth clean and "drawing" toxins out.
Basically, you just take 2tbsp of UNREFINED sunflower oil or sesame oil and swish it around in your mouth first thing in the morning for 20 minutes.

I have thyroid issues which causes edema when the wrong foods are eaten or salt. I always end up fasting to get rid of it and it takes a couple weeks.
For quick fixes though..Dandelion Root/Tea or Diuretic Teas. You can buy a tincture of Dandelion Root at a health food store and just add it to water or juice.

This product:
It's basically a water filter/ionizer that "alkalizes" tap water. My local co-op bought one and is selling the water at $1 per gallon or so. Supposedly it's *the best* but I can't say I've had anything positive from drinking it.
It doesn't taste all that "clean" to me. It seems a bit..fizzy? I thought maybe it's the alkaline=ness hitting the metal/filli

I don't understand this post.. So her colon was removed 2 years ago, and NOW is the only time she's ever had diahreah? Were her stools normal before she tried raw?
If she's been eating ONLY or MOSTLY cooked eggs and cooked potatoes for 2 years, anything new she'd eat would give her cramps and diahreah.
If she's always had the diahreah - half her colon is gone which means the stools can't fo

Also, lots of people do liver flushes and all you need is epson salt, grape fruit and OLIVE OIL. Stuff you can find at your local grocery store ALL for less than $10. Again, check o

If you're still calling it a trampoline it's probably because you haven't learned the differences yet. Trampolines are usually referred to kids toys.

I think it depends on the problem and how often you do it if they make things worse. SAD people are addicted to antacids and pop Tums like they're candy every other day. Obviously eating Mcdonalds just to have to pop some pills afterwards isn't a good thing.
I've taken Tums as a quick fix for things like trapped gas which is something you can't sit and wait out because the longer you do nothin

I don't think people hate those who are "different". I think people in general are turned off by the way people go about whatever it is that makes them "different".
Vegans and Vegetarians wouldn't get so much crap if they didn't go around judging other people for eating meat and making comments and faces. Fine, don't eat meat..that doesn't mean you have to sit there braggi

What is the best kind to get? Traditional Phillipine or Centrifiuged ?
I get mine from here and I can't decide which to use. I like the "Traditional" taste better.
But supposedly the Medium Chain Acids are one of the benefits of coconut oil and the other kind has more.
Any thoughts? Besides "just eat a coconut".
Thanks.
