Re: ketosis (Cindy/RoseMarie and anybody else that might be interested)

[Guest guest]

Hi Joanne,

It was so nice today-put on short sleeves and walked to the open air produce

market that just opened back up of the season. It got up to 80. About movies, I

saw a movie back in the 1970s, and cannot remember the title, I think with Loren

Greene. It was about earthquake in Japan so bad, the island was no longer

inhabitable, and all the people had to migrate to other countries. Maybe

Earthquake was the title. I may look it up.

I really do not know how much carbs take me out of ketosis, but my ratios are at

least 65 to 75 % fat calories. Seem like the times I checked, my carbs were

close to 30 grams that day. I enjoy this way of eating now. I do get hungry

after 5-6 hours, but not famished in 3 hours like when I had low blood sugar-and

ate carbs, and fruit.

I like westerns, and tape some shows for a friend with no cable, and they pass

them along to a nursing home there. I do crafts, mostly jewelry making, and

enjoy dolls. I recently got some music/nature relaxation tapes, but ended up

giving a couple away to another friend. I do better in the spring and summer. My

flowers, and some other seeds are coming up, some I gave up on are now up too.

Hi Joanne,

Here is the movie I saw. Greene was also in the movie Earthquake, but that was

about L A.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0070447/

I seldom get a niacin flush now, but I did today, started just before my walk.

Maybe it was the extra C. I am trying the vitamim c every hour today to see if I

can get a handle on my lower back pain, that has flared up again. I am not

trying the muscle relaxer or neurtontin this time. Moving around helps us detox.

Not sure why it flared up again, but I am pretty active. I would like to walk

barefoot, but here they spray the roundup. We had a nice meeting at our Kingdom

Hall today, a lot of visitors. Daylight saving time started today.

influence that radiation has had on our health

niacin is a very good supplement for radiation poisoning, plus coconut oil and

vitamin C would help. they say take kelp or seaweed supplements since iodine is

supposed to help with thyroid function but Bee, as of yet has not recommended

this so anybody that is unsure should ask Bee what she thinks of this. Her

advice would be better than mine

electromagnetism advises this, and he claims having no shoes on helps with this

too. Ketosis helps the body to detoxify radiation and heavy metals but if cannot

not achieve this drinking plenty of water would help too

This can be hard in this crazy world but getting depressed affects this illness

and it also makes it hard for us to make good decisions when things go wrong
