What's new...

Ah, the rant! The self-indulgent, selfish, explosion of thought and feeling that is best kept to one's self. But, that always seems to be a good idea at the time. Well, it's that time again kiddies! Grrrrrrr, grrrrrrrrrrr, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

So, what's on my mind this time? The deep inner frustration of having a non-compliant body in a world that worships compliant ones. You know, those lucky  few who, through either genes or force of habit, keep themselves thin as a stick insect. Ah, how my life would be different if I were a stick insect. Not better, mind you (well, maybe...) but different. The grass is greener, isn't it....?

So in my quest for the solution to my fatness problem, I have come across the idea that obesity and compulsive eating are actually symptoms of someone who is malnourished. This idea appealed to me and made quite a bit of sense, for if your body isn't getting the nutrients it needs, it could kick up a big fuss by way of cravings and compulsions to eat all sorts of things to keep from dying. I like to think that the cells of the body have the drive to survive. Why would anything give up the ghost if it didn't have to?

This all seems compounded by the fact that our food supply is now bereft of the vitamins and minerals that we really need to allow us to be robustly healthy. And, if you believe my sources (Mercola, David Wolfe) a little bit of supplementation just won't cut it. You need a LOT!

So, there's the rub! What do you take, how much do you need and how long do you take it?!? Hmmmmmm.... still working on that.

All this is on top of the usual eat right and exercise advice. Per my last post, I'm still not exercising. Naughty, naughty me....

In my quest for better nutrition I have implemented two new protocols (I'm not sure what else to call them). The first is a raw milk and probiotic meal. One glass (12-16 oz.) of raw cows milk with two tablespoons of lactobacillus acidophilus culture mixed in, twice a day on an empty stomach. I do it first thing in the morning and the last thing before I go to bed. I have heard many good things about raw milk being helpful with Candida and improving the immune system. 

The second is a lemonaid mixture that is full of tinctures and various nutrients that I drink throughout the day. Included in my mixture are lypospheric™ Vitamin C, MSM, L-aspartic acid, wormwood, pau d'arco and walnut tinctures, Miracle II neutralizer and Chlorophyll.

I'm hoping to be able to take very large amounts of the lypospheric Vitamin C as it has been used to heal people of all kinds of things. It's a bit expensive at around $30 per pack of 30. I'd like to take 5 packets a day or so and see if things improved. I take one of two a day right now. I must admit I do feel a bit better after taking it for 2 weeks. Not quite so tired as usual with better energy during the day.

I got started on the high dose Vitamin C business after seeing this very interesting 60 Minutes report on a man who was cured of a deadly form of swine flu and his leukaemia as well. His story is a cautionary tale of the idiocy of the mainstream health community. But, very enjoyable since he won out in the end.

That's all for now....
