Re: Immunity Building Question?

[Guest guest]

I would first start with purchasing Nourishing

Traditions cookbook by Sally Fallon. This has been the

best and most informational cookbook I have ever seen.

I really think this book is amazing. You should also

go online to www.westonaprice.org that has such good

nutritional advice and goes along with the Sally

Fallon cookbook. This will lead you in the right

direction for you and your family's nutrition. I have

already noticed feeling much better now that my son

and I have been taking daily morning doses of cod

liver oil with high vitamin REAL butter from grass-fed

cows. This cookbook really breaks it down and you

won't feel lost after reading it. I also think if you

want to take a vitamin C supplement you should check

into taking acerola powder. I have acerola powder but

I only bought it to add to homemade sally fallon baby

formula. I do think the cod liver oil is essential for

everyone. It helps with depression, arthritis, and so

many other benefits when you take it. SO please take

my advice and check out the links.

Much love,

Good luck

Christa

I am also a newbie with trying to get my whole family

eating better and well before you knock on my

suggestions below please first read sally fallon's

nourishing traditions and check out

www.westonaprice.org

I first started with switching all of my household

cleaning products, toiletries, and bath and body

products to all natural chemical free products. Then,

I started with my main ingredients.

We use to drink pasteurized whole milk and now we

drink raw milk (non homogenized/non pasteurized,

straight from the cow) you can get this from local

farms and you can find this information on where to

get it on westonaprice.org

We use to eat regular store bought eggs and now we eat

free range chicken eggs from local farms

we use to use country crock butter and now we use

organic valley butter

we use to use white bread and now we soak our whole

wheat flour in yoghurt for 24 hours and make our own

bread

we use to use regular table salt and now we use celtic

sea salt

so you just start switching all of your foods one at a

time and start eliminating the bad foods all together.

GET rid of your microwave, get all stainless steel

cookware,glass cookware, or cast iron pans and get rid

of anything aluminum.

Plan to spend more time in the kitchen.

Get rid of sugar. Only use natural sweetners (maple

syrup, stevia, rapadura, and so on)

Also read the back of nourishing Traditions to find

out where to buy the purest natural products including

cod liver oil, acerola powder, and so forth.

Alright thats it....check it out for yourself you will

be happy you did.

A good greens supplement is a great way to help with immune support and

extra vit's and minerals. I use Phyto Greens by Royal Body Care.

I agree Tania, I use organic Royal Greens with Ruby Reds in distilled water and

hope good synergy takes place during absorbtion. I reserve vit C for times of

need. I do need to get on some fish oil. I friend of mine insists that fresh

ground flax is better. Haven't researched enough to make a decision on that one.

Anita,

I've heard that most people cannot convert the flax into the necessary essential

fatty acid. Don't know the chemical details but just that much. With fish oil

one's body does not need to convert - apparently.

Sheri,

I'll keep that in mind. I heard that omega 6 when taking fish oil,even though

most people have too much already, is a needed ingredient for proper absorbtion.

Have you heard this?

I use, purely by accident, a brand called Natrol Ester-C. The bottle says it's a

unique form of vit C containing naturally occurring metabolites. It's patented

manufacturing process neutralizes the ph, making Ester-C gentle on the digestive

system. I like it because it comes in these large vegetarian capsules (500mg ea)

that are super easy to open. The C granules pour out like sand into Henry's baby

food where it is quickly and consumed without protest. Works for me. I just

hope it's a highly absorbable product too. It's awfully expensive.

What one or two things, nutrition-wise, could I do that will have the greatest

impact on my

I hear Vitamin C mentioned a lot but have no idea what " form " to take it in

(ascorbic acid,

sodium ascorbate, etc). I've also heard that fish oils are key. And the list

goes on.

So what would you recommend for a newbie who is trying to build immunity. BTW,

I have a

We've been doing a little research into mercury laiden foodstuffs etc as a

result of mercury poisoning - it goes thru placenta etc from fillings/amalgams,

seafood from Western shorelines and out further.... even includes Sushi - the

seaweed used to make the suhis sheets.... and includes fish oil unless it states

" mercury tested/free " .

Mercury and heavy metals are just another thing from the so-called western

society that is supposed to be good for us. Like fluoride.

My two cents.......again!

If you look at vegetarian information online it outlines how flax

and other sources are adequately converted. It also avoids the

issue of metals/toxins and degenerative diseases of fish etc.
