Dear Vilik,

I think there are holes in his theory that you could drive a Mack truck

through.

Ask a chiropractor about ear infections and they will tell you it is due to

a tight

muscle on the side of the neck which pulls the child's head over, cramping

the Eustachian tube, and leading to ear infections.

Ask a nutritionist about leukemia and they will tell you about the work done

over 60 years ago

by Dr. Wheeler (?) who found that leukemia was an antibody response to food,

and that he

could cure it with a diet change.

Cells are going anerobic and becoming potential cancer cells every minute of

every day in our bodies,

and the body has a dozen different mechanism to clean them up. Cancer only

grows beyond this stage when the clean up crew is subverted by a toxic

buildup, and nods off.

Did you see the interview on PBS' Tony Brown's Journal had the week before

Hulda 's four-week set? He had a British doctor on who said that his 30

years of research had proved to him that the level of cleanliness was

directly related to the level of albumin in the blood, which was directly

related to general health. (Cleanliness is next to godliness!)

And lastly, I wish it were true that vegetarians don't get cancer. I have

calls from vegetarians all the time.

In fact, two this week, both over twenty years without a morsel of meat.

Best of Health!

My family hates vegetables. They do like fruit, though. Any suggestions?

Even I don't really care for veggies, especially raw ones. It's just the way

I grew up and have eaten for the past 39 years. Teach me!

I hate veggies too, so I trick myself. Like someone else just mentioned, I put

grated everything in to anything. Carrots, zucchini, etc. I'll even eat

cauliflower if it's cut into tiny pieces and cooked into a burger with nuts,

wheatgerm, etc. Very yummy! The La Leche League Whole Foods Cookbook has a

great recipe for " green spaghetti " - pureed spinach and parmesan cheese sauce -

its so good and looks really gross - just what kids like.

I make my own salsa, and don't really have a recipe, so it kind of

turns out different each time I make it. I can give you

approximately what I use and you can adjust for taste.

4-5 medium ripe tomatoes

4-5 green onions

1/4 white or red onion

1-3 jalapeno peppers

2-4 cloves garlic

black pepper

cilantro

Sorry I don't have exact measures, it depends alot on the flavor as

you mix it. Sometimes I just chop all the ingredients in tiny pieces

and toss together to give it a pico de gallo consistency (chunkier).

Sometimes I blanch the tomatoes to remove the skins, then throw all

the ingredients in a blender or food processor and puree roughly (not

so it is totally liquid). I will also throw some random stuff in

there depending on what is in the fridge... celery, carrots. Also if

I can't use tomatoes from the garden (or organic from the healthfood

store) I just use canned tomatoes because the ones from the

supermarket are really horrible. Luckily, being in California I can

get fresh or organic almost year round. Hope this helps.

Jen B.

P.S. The salsa will get hotter as it sits in the fridge, so I make

mine a little mild to start. The first time I made this stuff, I

made it to taste pretty hot the first day and by the next day when I

tried some, it almost blew my head right off my shoulders!! <g>

Cilantro is also known as coriander and chinese parsley. There are about 300

million different types of chili peppers, but you can use just about any in

salsa. Its really good with chipotle peppers, too.

Cilantro is a very punguent tasting fresh herb, and I believe it is

sometimes referred to as Italian parsley over there. I could be

mistaken about that (and please, if I am, someone rescue me).

Jalapeno peppers are the small green chili peppers. Jabanero peppers

are medium-size orange chili peppers, and are the hottest chili

pepper you can use, so be careful with those.

Hi Tamra,

Welcome to our healthy way of eating. Go to where you joined this list and

click on files. Tabitha's ER files are filled with recipes, most set up for

combined blood types, since her combined family has all blood types. You

might also like to join

Cook Right 4 Your Type from the www.dadamo.com home page. We exchange

recipes, certain blood types on certain days usually so we can know what day

to look for suggestions for our blood type. Many of them are set up for all

blood types. That gives you more of a selection. Also, you can go to the

search there for a lot of recipes.

Enjoy.

I eat my veggies mostly in big salads (spinach, romaine, broccoli, onions,

carrots, sometimes kale) and then eat tons of red peppers and onions cooked

with meat.

You're right - not a diet, it's a lifestyle change.

I have used those steamers for years. Great and very

versitle. Just a little water. Cooking times vary,

Most things are betweeen 3 to 6 minutes. If you are

mixing things;put in the long time things (carrots,

brocoli stems etc) first then after a few mins. add

the less time stuff(brocoli tops, greens etc)

I used to have one of those steamers and used it all the time. It did

broccolli the best. I don't know what happened to the steamer, probably in

the back of my kitchen cupboards somewhere. I will have to look for it.

Thanks for reminding me about it, .

Those little folding ones that open like a flower? I have one. I

usually steam for about 5 minutes. Steam is hotter than boiling

water, and I like my veggies on the crispy side. I've been sauteing

more lately, in the meat drippings. Wow... new tastes for me and so

yummy!

Yes, that is the one I bought. I will try that. I

like to stir-fry as well, but I love steamed

broccolli.

Hey Guys!!!

I had the best dinner ever!!! Chuck steak on my Geo.

Forman Grill. Just enough fat to be really tasty!!

And...steamed veggies. I put a few carrots in the

bottom for color and let them steam about 4 minutes,

then I added the broccolli stems like you guys

suggested. Then the broccolli flowers, I topped it

with a few spinach leaves and sliced onion. I never

knew spinach could be so goooooooooooood!! Wow. And

I had a salad. It's too bad I am full, because I

still want to eat more. LOL

Change the butter to olive oil or ghee and it's perfect! Can't wait to try

it myself.

Thanks for sharing that , I forget to add the onions and I love them cooked

and seasoning my veggies.

Actually, Dianne....a little butter is ok. I prefer

the flavor of butter to olive oil any day. But we do

have to limit the amt. somewhat. I had real butter on

my veggies tonight.

Hey Tink,

Bridgette already answered this, but, yeah, lentils aren't veggies.

They're a bean and have 160 cals per 1/4 cup with 6 grams of fiber nd

12 grams of protein. As far as veggies go, I know I would make

better progress if I ate more, but I just hate them. I buy them

frozen, because I hate cooking, and chopping fresh veggies feels like

such a chore to me (I know, I know, I'm being a total lazy whiner

I like mixed veggies in bags (but buy ones without corn and peas,

which have a lot more sugar); broccoli and spinach are fabulous

choices. They're almost all fiber. Cucumbers and celery are great

raw, because they practically take more calories to digest than they

give you. Carrots are a tad high in sugar, especially when cooked.

Tomatoes are also good.

WARNING! Low GI Carb talk below.....

Lentils are a carb. ) Veggies I love to eat are:

Mixed greens- you can make a MONSTER salad and it is about 15 calories. LOL! I

buy the bagged greens.

Broccoli- I buy it precut and in a bag and dip it in fat free dressing.

Tomatoes- I love to eat these with a LITTLE salt and lots of pepper!

Asparagus- I could eat steamed asparagus all day.

Onions, peppers, etc.- awesome in omelets!

If you are looking for Low GI, low cal fruits.....

Strawberries- these are awesome. I even dip them in Cool Whip Free. They are

VERY low cal and low GI. I think a pint is like 100 calories. LOL! BOOHOO

strawberries!

Peaches, Plums, Apricots, grapes. They are all Low GI and low cal. Apples are

good too. I have 1/2 c cottage cheese and a fruit as a meal all the time. It is

about a 110-150 cal meal. You can add a salad for bulk and you will still be

keeping the calories really low, whether you are trying or not. LOL! They are

just low calorie fruits.

The calories get high when you add the starchy carbs, but you should still have

these at LEAST once a day. Don't try to go Low GI after a workout. I eat toast,

a whole wheat tortilla, oatmeal or cream of wheat every day for my post workout

meal. )

Hope this helps some Tink.

Veggies

Dani,

What veggies do you reccommend other then Lentils? Lentils are those

little beans right? I want to make sure I have lots of variety so I don't

waiver.

Thanks, Tink

--- TOMATOES ARE THE BOMB!!!!! oh my gosh..did I just say that?

weird..like I never say that! oh ..I really like cherry tomatoes or

have you tried those grape tomatoes? they look like little roma

tomatoes....*goes to buy tomatoes*
