Tai: DOn't quote me on this, because I may have misunderstood him or heard him wrong, but Brian Clement told me he oversaw 10,000 people on water fasts in Scandanavia (I believe Sweden). He said at the end of the fasts, they looked worse and he understo

Genesis claims to have lived food-free for a while in the past, but in 2013, in these videos, he talks about his breatharianism in the past tense. So was the chaga video filmed before or after the Wolfe video? Even the people who caught him drinking fruit juice did say that under close observation he was able to live food-free for longer than most people could last. he has so m

Also just to add in passing... I feel mixing other juices enhances plain fresh orange juice, for example, garnet yam or green juice or watermelon versus just plain orange juice for a balanced person. (The exception would be if someone is sick and full of mucous). When I used to have phlegm in my throat, plain orange juice was so healing. Later, with no phlegm, I started to feel somewhat an i

But when it would take me so long to make one quart of juice, such as when I was juicing things like yam, carrot, beet (hard roots), I considered that I was taking too long, since the Gerson program say

John Rose wrote: Unfortunately, the Chemical Revolution has made Water Fasting dangerous for many people, so it's best to Modify a Water Fast by drinking a gallon or more of Vegetable Juice a day for the appropriate length of time, which for most people over 40 would be around 3 months or so.

To NuNativs: I hear your message. I have gone to a couple of rainbow gatherings and I have had to learn what it is to live off the grid and walk through the forest at night with no light (because the batteries died in the flashlight). Rainbow gatherings are fun, because there is no money involved and everyone just trades and shares. I have also had the privilege of working with a garden for m

Arugula wrote: As we age our stomach's production of HCL declines so we are less able to extract nutrients from food. This is why when we get to about 65 or so it may be time to increase B12 and protein intakes so as to compensate for decreased HCL production.

this is the first picture I have posted, so forgive me if it's too big. I tried making it smaller but I don't know how. Any tips for shrinking? I may not post another picture again, but was curious what TSM thought of the quality. IF it was picked this morning, isn't that good? THis is my stash from today's farmer's market.

I don't know why all these men are getting on Arugula's case for protecting her skin. Everyone knows society judges women by their looks. Even though Christie Brinkley aged well, still her husband couldn't resist dating a teenager. If Arugula can hire male gardeners and farmers to do the work, it works out better, because women won't judge the male farmers for their aged skin. When men have a

Tai: I understood she was increasing exercise. I was just intrigued by her and Matt's exchange on the topic and was wondering what the CR view is on exercise and aging. Also, some exercise does not increase metabolism. Look at som

SueZ Tai, is growing goji indoors possible with just lighting from south facing windows in the North? How large do they get? I saw a video once where David Wolf was picking goji berries in the desert from what looked like bushes. I didn't know they were vines. Tai: I do not know. I grew mine in a big pot for a couple years before I planted it. While it was in the pot, it did not grow much.

Panchito, you are so correct, but a disorder is named because of some kind of pathology. From wiki: "Orthorexia is not mentioned in the widely used DSM, but was coined by Bratman[4] who claims that in rare cases, this focus may turn into a fixation so extreme that it can lead to severe malnutrition or even death.[5] Even in less severe cases, the attempt to follow a diet that cannot prov

It's tiresome to always state the big problems with Morse's system, when I also want to pay him a compliment or confirm some of his findings.

Unfortunately, they often put sulfites on inexpensive dried Chinese whole herbs, especially the ones that bugs love to eat. I have to pay extra to get unsulfured and even more for organic whole herbs. Whenever you see

At Raw food world, I paid about $16/lb for the dried PITTED ones on sale, still retail, and at Essential living foods, I paid roughly the same when they were on sale and before they raised the price, which they did when they changed the labeling. Also I have a wholesale account with ELF (because I have a pharmacy for my customers), but since the pitted ones are in such demand, they give retail c

Hey, I am not selling olives to anyone, nor am I encouraging anyone to buy olives. But, I am expressing how wholesome the raw dried olives taste from Essential living foods and the Raw Food World. Every December the Raw Food World has a 17% sale, so I stock up then. And every so often the other company has a sale, so I stock up also. I am not disputing what Panchito says, because I have never

Optimum health institute (OHI) is cheaper than HHI (i think there is one in texas and San Diego, California). I think there is also an Ann Wigmore institute somewhere in Michigan. Also Michael Bergonzi was supposed to have a retreat center somewhere in Northern California.

SueZ, I feel the same about the Kangen, In fact, I talked to the manufacturers about the whole issue once. Kangen is approved in Japan for true hyperacid stomachs. Makes sense, right? I don't judge Kangen though, because I have met SAD eaters that use Kangen (not before meals, though) to their benefit. Could the Kangen have anything to do with Lou's eyes being cloudy?

I agree with SueZ. Brian is around so many people all the time. How could he keep it a secret if he dyes his hair? He has so much hair. People would see the roots. It's hard for me to describe his hair color, but SueZ is right, there is a lot of red in it, but also dark, and the sun bleaching makes a lot of sense. He doesn't guarantee anyone their natural color will come back with whe
