Ladies, Hold Your Temper!

January 28, 2010

Received this in my inbox the other day:

“When your husband or boyfriend does
something that makes you angry;
Don’t give in to the temptation
to argue, fuss and fight!
Just count to ten, remain calm & after he goes to bed,
Super-Glue his flip flops to the floor!”

Healthy Eating Days 6, 7 and 8

Dairy Withdrawal – Why is Casein Addictive?

December 4, 2009

I felt pretty terrible when I woke up this morning. I had a headache, a bit of a stomach ache, and I was so exausted I could barely manage to get out of bed. My muscles felt a bit tighter as well. I know those are common symptoms of withdrawal, but I didn’t expect to [...]

Day four was mostly uneventful. My headache passed, and physically I felt pretty much the same I felt prior to starting this experiment. I did notice that at moments I felt more clear-headed, and when writing was able to formulate my sentences a bit faster.
I ate 100% vegan today.
Breakfast:
1 cup Special K, 1/2 cup soy [...]

Taken from http://www.themodernreligion.com/misc/hh/pork.html:
Bad Effects of Pork Consumption
Pig’s bodies contain many toxins, worms and latent diseases. Although some of these infestations are harbored in other animals, modern veterinarians say that pigs are far more predisposed to these illnesses than other animals. This could be because pigs like to scavenge and will eat any kind of food, [...]
