Guest guest Posted June 30, 2000 Report Share Posted June 30, 2000 Hi Kate. I am not sure if I want to go down that path of antibiotics only because I was on the two strongest antibiotics for six weeks via intervenes. They say that there are some serious side effects to the kidneys and hearing loss from taking these antibiotics, so I am a little weary of taking anymore. I think you are right about the diet and managing the stress. I know that I can never go back to my old job as a branch manager for a bank even if I was physically able because of the stress level. I have so much on my mind these days I don't know what to think. Soup for breakfast!!! Is it tough to eat soup early in the morning. It sounds good, I will have to try to make some, are you using only brown rice or can you use white rice. I hate the brown rice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 2, 2000 Report Share Posted July 2, 2000 Hi Michele, Accordingly to my naturopath, and a rheumatologist I use to go to, it is the starch in flours and grains that affects arthritis. White rice is a lot more starchy than brown, however funnily enough not as bad as other forms grains. The preference is brown, which I personally don't favour, but white rice is just as beneficial. So difficult I know. I'm going to try a rice ball recipe tonight so I'll let you know if it is worth knowing!!! Keep well. Kate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 2, 2006 Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 You are mistaken. We have discussed soup in the past (search the archives) and have a nice collection of soup recipes in the " links " section (among many other recipes) under (of all things) " Soups " . Rodney has often talked about his " thick soup " recipe and it is included there. Of course feel free to tell us of other CRON-like soup recipes. on 9/2/2006 11:40 AM, Madalena Muñoz at madalenam@... wrote: Hello from Europe! In Portugal, as in all mediterranean cultures, we eat a lot of home made soup - hearty vegetable and/or legume based. Lately I have been reading about CR and CRON eating but don´t see much regarding soup based meals. I wonder why!? (snipped) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 26, 2006 Report Share Posted December 26, 2006 Sounds yummy! I made a split pea and barley veggie soup the other day. Wasn't raw, but low sodium and no gluten. Which reminds me. At work they took out the snack vending machine and put in a snack cupboard on the honor system. The money goes to the Ethiopian church we are supporting. We've already raised enough to build the building, buy livestock and such. Anyway, when they asked for suggestions, I insisted on healthy choices as well as commonly used snacks. They got what they considered " healthy " . One look at the ingredients sent me into a mood. Not a good one. So, now, weekly, I am making soup. Different each week. I label it and I put it into single serving containers and put it in the break room fridge. I ask that they pay what they can, whatever change is in their pockets and such, toward the church we are supporting. That way, they have healthy alternatives, and the church benefits as well. They call me the " health guru " at work. Gee, I wonder why. > > Today Gloria is home thinking of this picture and our disbate. > > And making soup....Curried Red Lentil with Sweet Potatoes and Greens. Too bad > is all raw.

Some great vegetarian soup books out there...you can get them from the library. I use Nava Atlas's one a lot. Homemade bread and homemade soup....doesn't get much better than that!Gloria __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking it meant the food was made small enough to be safely swallowed. Obviously that isn't all that was meant. Because all the liquids for soups ad broth, obviously do not have to be chewed to make it smaller. I any case, I guess instead of taking huge amounts of unsweetened iced tea and instant milk in at a time. I will have to start holding them in my mouth to start the digestive process better.I'm wondering if this is one of the reasons that the Jehovah Witness people don't allow more than one glass of liquid per meal, per person? I'm only going by a person that got out of the religion, as soon as he turned 18 years old. So it might have just been his estranged parents interpretation of something in their religion.I will still continue to drink water down without chewing it, although I do savor it every now and then.BillSurvivalism_III'm the owner of the above groupOn 11/10/2010 12:26, Suzanne wrote:>>> You should chew all foods good.. it gets the digestive juices going to> aid in digestion and then the stomach and liver don't have to work so> hard... and you stay healthier.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 Heard that as well, Candace. I think that is a load of crock. As some moisture has to be there to allow you to swallow the food itself. A lot of foods have little moisture in them. Then what do you do when eating dehydrated foods? Now, when talking about some of the newer stomach surgeries for weight loss. Victims are told to drink all they want before eating, but none while eating or for two hours after eating. Now, why did I say 'victims' above, instead of the person getting the surgery? I was almost convinced to get a weight loss surgery. My family doctor finally talked me out of it and told me why I should not have it. In any case, everyone can lose weight if they really want to, by diet alone. Even those with a messed up endocrine system can lose weight! this is my viewpoint and no one can convince me otherwise. However, that is not for this subject.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 Drink water, before and a little while after, wait about an hour. Let the food get digested properly, if you get gas or heart burn, that could be the problem.     ~Katy Sheep to the right; His Lamb “In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength" Isa 30:15 http://www.orchardhouseheirlooms.net/ survival seeds http://www.reusablebarrels.com/- storage -food quality barrels Christian-homesteaders/ biblical survival -- Re: Re: Soup Yeah what I read says to eat before and after eating but not while.
