Someone living on Vancouver Island also asked recently and found someone local who gives seaweed tours --
Someone else living in San Diego was interested and there's been a little local seaweed list done there that's online.

Professional cyclists must be driven by something. "Blood doping" shocked me, you know that's where they'll have their own blood drawn, stored and then transfused when they get run down. It sounds dangerous.
The beef industry is pressing for investigation now that Alberto Contador is sticking with his excuse of steroid tainted beef.

It's probably a legal option to dip them in hexamethylenetetramine, which when exposed to moisture "expresses" formaldehyde as a fungicide--

A Wikipedia article has a nice overview on seaweed --
They External link to an algae database which I've used before. It has a forum --
Where I live the green seaweed, codium fragile, is constantly outgrowing its holdfasts and washing up on shore. It's an invasive species here. Sea lettuce can be gathered snorkling which I seldom do, actually preferring the codium.

Here's a profession where you need a little optimism - astronaut. The latest Soyuz space capsule landing is on YouTube! It was always so secret during The Cold War -
They were up at the International Space Station for 176 days. The day they left they put on their space suits, climbed into this little capsule, finally got the hatch sealed - there was a piece of the closing mechanism flo

66. Re: Raw Paleo
Suncloud,
That's good to know the wild pigs are not aggressive. Years ago when in Waimea for a wedding I'd heard they lived on the island and when walking alone one day right close along side what looked like their hillside cave dwellings I was a little nervous wondering if something like a wild boar would jump out at me.
The deer here off the east coast do the same sort of damage to yards

A band I really liked was The Wipers, out of Portland, Oregon - US. They're considered Punk in retrospect but played purely for the art. I saw them in a club not much bigger than a postage stamp where they had two refrigerator size speakers set up on the dance floor which was intense. Yesterday while listening to When it's Over from their '81 Youth of America album I threw up a set of 110 hand

I can't say I remember the name of the band, Pavlov's Dog, but the song is familiar. On school break in the winter of '77 I took an English course in London and remember the Sex Pistols making a huge splash and have their album Never Mind the Bullocks, also one by The Stranglers (and saw them perform in Boston, US) and two by Siouxsie and the Banshees.

Sure, I remember even a little further back, c1968 sitting in social studies class discussing the welfare program in the US. This makes me think the programs didn't work out so well. Do you have the album?

71. Re: Raw Paleo
Suncloud,
I was hiking on the small mountain above Waimea and near the peak came across what I thought must be the home of wild pigs because there were caves and the earth was trampled down to bare earth. Just below there was the beginning of a mountain stream, where one of the Parker Ranch cows had died and was returning to the earth undisturbed. I always wondered why a den of wild pigs would

Dark field analysis is practiced by Robert O. Young and I've watched a video where he's pointing out candida in a blood sample based on appearance only (no mention of doing a lab culture).
It's easier to prove something wrong then to prove something right. I used to get perlèche (sores at the corners of the mouth) as a pasta vegetarian, and used to take lysine (an amino acid short in wheat)

Yes, individual variability is mentioned which is why when they study lots of people they use bell curves and other statistical tools.
You've got to start somewhere. I was noticing this wikipedia site references and suggests for further reading 20+ pubmed articles, the author presumably familiar with all of them. Then with pubmed there's further helps to screen for credibility there.

Well, Doug Graham says towards the end of the 2nd video that high fruit with high fat does not work. He may have multiple reasons.
I've read, digestively there's the process of "gastric emptying" where the small intestine monitors the nutrient content in the chime and neurally/hormonally regulates stomach emptying because it can only deal with so many nutrients (especially fat)

Here's a link that says the pH of the large intestine is about 5.6 - 6.9, the slightly acid environment helping to keep bacteria in check.
"If the pH of the Large Intestine has become too alkaline, this may be associated with an imbalance and/or proliferation of intestinal floras. These pathogens influence the process of putrefaction and may be expressed by a variety of symptoms."

Yes, I suppose they are separate issues from candida.
He spends the whole interview talking about candida in the bloodstream basically.
Did you read the . article on digestion about how the GI tract is essentially outside the body? So it's like the skin, vagina, urethra, nasal passages and ear canals, all places where we can get candida yeast infections. I don't know who wrote it because

The second video gets interesting around 5:56 where Doug is asked what if there are health issues, and Doug responds "well nothing will work with these underlying issues", that if one has pancreas, adrenal or thyroid issues they need to be dealt with.
But then at the end he says he's never seen the 80/10/10 diet fail.

Ok, I'm into video #2 where at 1:28 he is talking about the pancreas producing insulin and Doug mistates "the body producing sugar" and quickly corrects himself to say "insulin". He's capable of mistakes but I think he knows yeast from bacteria, though with both yeast and bacteria acting as "good bacteria" (my wording) in the GI tract I think there's plenty of room

No, that's my mistake, mixing up yeast and bacteria.
Oh, and I meant "when food leaves the body" it normally has a pH of 6, which would be expected from a stool test and which I'm sure you understood. It ties in with the predominantly acidic environment of the GI tract, IMO. I would be interested in any rebuttals.

Oh, good powerlifer, and I see at the 1st interview at 6:18 Doug Graham starts talking about how he thinks all humans have candida in the blood stream as a backup system to help control blood sugar in case we over-consume, and that the candida quickly bloom to eat the excess blood sugar which brings blood sugar back down to normal levels, followed by die off of those same candida cells.

Doug Graham makes it sound like you can't eat too much fruit (sugar), that the body can handle it. Diabetics know better yet still hear "just eat fruit and greens".
