Starting Date for the "Recipe"
Note, there are about 15ish people interested in the program. I'm not going to give the recipe until most of them get onboard this discussion group or one week (whichever comes first). I think thats fair. I set the group to public, so that the link I sent them will work. (I forgot that if your group is set to "private" no…

Fasting Notes ~ Good Things
I saw a list of fasting "one liners" on Dr. Jason Fung's Website. It was really cool. But, I can't find it now, so I'll try to do it by memory. I like to contrast it to exercising. I'm not saying exercising is bad, its just that fasting can be an "alternative" to lose weight easier than doing long workouts at the gym.…

Fermented Food Research
I've spent a lot of time researching fermented foods, probiotics, prebiotics, gut flora, leaky gut, inflammation and its impact on diabetes, weight and health. It is a whole new world out there!

Beef Bacon
I was shopping at Kroger the other night and found some Beef Bacon made by John Morrell. I have never heard of it before. Later on, I called two of my friends that were in their 60's and asked them if they ever heard of it, they hadn't. I'm guessing its new. So tonight I cooked/ate some and here is my review (comparing to…

Ancient Wheat Grains?
Everyone know on a low carb diet, wheat and gluten aren't any good. Gluten causes inflamation, cravings and spikes blood glucose. I've been doing a little google research on this and found an ancient grain called Einkorn. This is the wheat they ate in Biblical times and beyond. According to the website's claims, the modern…

Lies Our Brains Tell Us
I was posting on my wall, the lies our body's brain tells us. You know, usually it says you can't do something, but if you persevere and override what it tells us, you find out it lied to you. Most of my body's lies come from the years of training it got from when I was 330 pounds and a carbage eater. At that time, most of…
