Remember the WEEDS??..oxalic acid

[Guest guest]

Oh, I did want to perhaps refine some of Dr. D's recs on the

beneficial veggies.

According to the Metab. Type authors(there " HB " goes again with

another " diet cult " )the presence of oxalic acid in many of them tasty

weeds(chard{swiss?},beet greens, beets, endive, GREEN

PEPPERS,spinach,asparagus{and the broccoli-asparagus hybrid too?}, &

EVEN TOMATOES) & some other veggies too......(I bet the escarole is

in there too)......BOTTOMLINE, if you're a PROTEIN TYPE, they

recommended that you COOK these to eliminate the oxalic acid.

What's wrong with oxalic acids you say? Apparently it interferes

with the absorption of calcium. MIXED TYPE people tend to have more

freedom though. Why? I have no clue.

OVERALL, I say listen to your instinct. I have gotten " sick " after

eating many times these items cold and have experienced a GAGGING

FEELING. Many times even if I've cooked these various veggies,, the

whole salty/chalky taste of it would repel me. How bout you guys?

jb(oh, I get it, " ham bone " / " highly beneficial " ....took me a while to

get it.)
