Guest guest Posted April 2, 2003 Report Share Posted April 2, 2003 Tim, Dedy and I have been corresponding back and forth since she sent the article through about Chasing Hawk, a Cheyenne River Sioux man who cured his diabetes and heart disease. I contacted him through the article's author. He's done the diabetes through monitoring his blood glucose every 20 minutes. Any food that reacts in 20 minutes he doesn't eat. He has no medication anymore for either condition controlling his lipids with the diabetes diet too. He eats butter, steak, eggs, bacon. What seems to run through all the articles Dedy has found and sent me since is that wherever native people are trying to clean up their diet they're reducing fat with lean meat, replacing butter with margarine .... aaarrrgh and increasing fruit. On dairy you might have a better chance where you are are there is good liklihood that the native people in your area have French blood mixed in like I do from Canada and can tolerate dairy. A general rule is that native people are intolerant either to the lactose or casein in milk. They've never had raw milk to compare to processed. I was to evaporated milk in my baby formula (colic) and pasteurized, homogenized milk but do fine on raw. Dedy said woman from Cheyenne River had said the only use for government issued evaporated milk cans was to dump the milk out, cut the tin up and make cones that became jingles for a new dance. Made babies sick. Chasing Hawk has said kidney problems are common. The kidneys article at westonaprice.org backs up the good fat need. Pemmican was used by just about every tribe north of Mexico. Raw, grassfed dairy to me is second best source behind grassfed fat to wild game fat.
