A side note:
The man recommends to sleep 10 hours. I used to watch durianrider and I can understand that after a long marathon bike ride sleeping 10 hours. But this seems a strange number for the average sedentary person. Isn't one of Ann Wigmore's claim to fame that she had a reduced need for sleep on her diet, according to eyewitnesses? I can say truthfully that when I take the time to d

1412. Re: texture
Hi SueZ, that cocoa melanger seems roughly the same size as the one I have from Matt's company. I still don't see how you could actually make 8 pints of anything with an open lid, where things fly out as the wheels turn (as the website says). The capacity is there. Ask about nut butters and compare the two. Matt said about 24 ounce and that is accurate even though the machine is huge. I just m

No one on this board comes close to the category of psychopaths. Some are disillusioned, disappointed, cynical, skeptical, impatient, wary, protective, bitter, angry, on guard and ready to hurl insults, but not psychopathic.

On a final note, I also believe in what Confucius said about the Golden Rule:
“Do not do to others what you would not have them do to you.”
But he did not believe in returning good for evil. For if you reward the man who hurts you with kindness, he reasoned, what do you have left to give the man who is kind to you?

SueZ,
If you want to use the coconut meat from the mature coconuts, you need a special coconut tool. John Kohler sells the tool, but I bought it somewhere cheaper for a bundle price. You need the tool...it is like the difference of hours, when you are going through a few coconuts. One coconut might last one person 2-3 days, but I often make food for several guests. The tool makes it fun. No

I think the lady that created that petition has serious character issues.
She is upset that Freelee and DR said that you could eat HCLF without having to worry about too many calories (in other words, you could stay slim). I think they were just quoting Dr. McDougall, and probably felt safe in saying so. Well, some people gained weight on that diet and started hating on Freelee and DR. (I do

In the class I took with John Mini, LAc, he says that he had to help a few cases of spirit possession in marijuana users. I was floored because it was a normal acupuncture class and there were atheists present. But there were enough people who know about spirits who needed to know this. His opinion is that a person needs to already have severe problems and is ready for that to happen and then t

I bought that melanger from Matt Monarch's company.
I like it but I have the following complaints:
1) plastic lid cracked rather quickly. Stainless steel lid is expensive.
2) the capacity to make nut butter is limited to less than 32 oz at a time, and often more like 24 oz. But when all is said and done, the amount seems much less after it is pressed, maybe because bits of it stick to th

Obvious impairment may not occur until the glucose falls below 40 mg/dL (2.2 mM), and many healthy people may occasionally have glucose levels below 65 in the morning without apparent effects.

This is so ridiculous for people to take cheap shots. This thread is not for haters. I asked for people to comment if they understand functional ranges, because I took a lot of classes with Datis Kharrazian to learn to interpret from this perspective. My point is that if someone is not exhibiting symptoms, then is it okay to have out of range numbers. You, SueZ, said you felt fine.

Okay, I listened at 58 minutes and he says love exceeds nutrition when it comes to cells being in protection mode versus growth mode.
The reason I said to watch starting at 55 minutes, is because he discusses what a cell does when coming into contact with a toxin. It retreats. So, I don't think he is negating nutritional wisdom. He confirms it.
