Guest guest Posted May 8, 2004 Report Share Posted May 8, 2004 Yes, vegetable glycerine is frequently found in the body oil section. However, you will find it cheaper in the food sections of companies that sell it. The best price I have found is at Azurestandard.com. I have no idea what brand you found, but I suppose it would be wise to verify that what you are looking at to buy is suitable for consumption. Agave has not been tested or rated, however you might want to read what Heidi has written about it in the past in her column. Have you done any liver flushes in the past? Improving your liver function might help you with your allergies. I did 12 liver flushes over the past 6 months and passed lots of stones. I live in one of the worst allergy cities of the country and I am not having any noticeable allergy problems this year. Is the lack of allergy problems because of the liver flushes, BTD, the more strict avoidance of certain grains, the supplements I'm taking? I don't know. But I do know that I am going to continue to work on the health of my liver, and kidneys, for some time to come. Don > Ok, I thought it was vegetable glycerine.

Not bad at all. I actually could skip the sweetener because I tried a bit without sweetener. My taste buds are so not overdone with sweetness these days that " tart " cherry juice concentrate tastes derned sweet to me. > I am still having pollen allergies, but so are people who I have never seen with allergies- for instance Audrey- known for 10 years to not have allergies, but this year she is. A lady at the HFS thinks it has something to do with the Space shuttle that scattered across our area. She is very smart and might be right, but I doubt it at this point. I prefer to think the gub'ment is comtrailing us with stuff- LOL. > Se y'all later, > Joy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 8, 2004 Report Share Posted May 8, 2004 I found my vegetable glycerine in the moisturizer section as well. It was about $7 for a medium bottle. It doesn't say on the bottle that it's a sweetener but does say that it's made from vegetables and pure enough to be used internally, good enough for me. It was Now brand. It's quite sweet, I can see it being pretty versatile. That vegetable sweetener someone mentioned? Update Ok, I thought it was vegetable glycerine. However, at my HFS, that was located in the body oil section. Not for consumption, I suspect. I saw Stevia Glycerite but steered clear because of the stevia.

Had 3 girlfiends over for scrapbooking get together to work on our " circle journals " (aka circle jerks-LOL). I cooked for them- carmelized onions, grassfed beef, no bread, baby greens (Earthbound). Later, as they were having crap food withdrawals, I made chocolate chip cookies for them to trash their systems-LOL. They ate those and had some liquor filled chocolates. I really had no burning need nor desire. (This is getting weird because it is prime PMS time, and I am " supposed " to NEED chocolate now!) One girlie has left off wheat, noticed a difference and is interested in BTD. I found I did not explain this well like some of you guys, like Don especially. I found myslef kinda bumbling about feeling better and not making sense with the science. Any tips on getting the lingo down to communicate to someone who is seeking better health? I am still having pollen allergies, but so are people who I have never seen with allergies- for instance Audrey- known for 10 years to not have allergies, but this year she is.

Oh, I have the priveledge of chauferring a friend's son and date to prom tonight. (My car is cooler than his mom's mini-van since it was a Super Bowl car or something like that.) I cannot beleive that boy I met 11 years ago is having prom. He has had a tough time in life, but he is doing well. OK, I am way off subject here. Going to clean off back of seat the Truman routinelt wipes his shoes on before leaving for town. Se y'all later, Joy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 8, 2004 Report Share Posted May 8, 2004 That is one of the better brands according to Heidi,. RE: That vegetable sweetener someone mentioned?
