problem is most sea foods have more EPA than DHA let alone the therapeutic quantities in recommended ratios of 4 to 1 for DHA.

What do you think?

Hot Topics / Squid Oil vs Fish / other Oils
« on: January 16, 2016, 05:18:59 pm »
Anyone has tried a good supplement of squid oil?

Apparently it has 4 : 1 DHA to EPA ratio

Is there any natural source with 4 to 1 DHA to EPA ratio?

The complete article:

So nothing is "proved", the evidence is just anecdotal.

Calorie Restriction is beneficial for health.
The more calories you eat, the more free radicals your body produces. Free radicals are the by-product of energy production by your body and hence the more damage to your health you're doing. Running Marathons has the same effect; it ages you faster.

I take a sublingual vit d supplement. i make it a point to take 6000 to 10 000 IU daily.
It's way too important of a vit according to many recent studies and i just cant get enough of it considering my current life style.

your second best bet is this; very tasty and excellent quality you can tell from the first mouthful.

Both are solid or with high viscosity and taste like no other honey; they smell and taste medicinal.
I love raw honey with Avocado. I try to limit my intake to two tablespoons a day.

I saw a news report about this on the news this morning, but I can't help but think this study seems flawed.

I'm personally a strong believer in fasting, because its shown, when done properly, to have an amazing benefit in terms of healing. A load of science and personal experiences back this up, too.

What I don't agree with is a diet that is everyday constantly restricted by a certain amount. That's just simply keeping the body at a reduced state of efficiency. What I DO believe in is eating very healthy and normally everyday, and then once a week for 24 hours you fast with only water. This is roughly a 15 percent reduction in your overall diet, but the key is that its done in a much more proper way. Your body can be buzzing with nutrition the whole week, and then apply that nutrition and energy with the help of a fast like you never would otherwise be able to achieve without that concentration of a 24 straight block.

Regular monthly 2 and 3 day water fasts can be very beneficial as well. The important thing is that you do it right. Eat very nutritiously, wind down slowly for the fast beforehand, eating easier and a bit lighter. Then when you're done the fast, wind up again slowly, eating mostly veg items at first and bring your metabolism back up gently.

Good strategy. I am from the same opinion on this point.

Hot Topics / Re: Is Chia Oil the best Omega 3 source?
« on: July 02, 2012, 08:48:07 am »
Chia has a lot of anti nutrient compounds in them and should not be used in large amounts

It has even more nutrients which means they will cancel the anti-nutrients.
Besides the anti-nutrients, I believe, are water soluble and thus the chia oil is devoid of the anti-nutrients but remains a very rich source of fatty acids in the ratio of 3:1 for Omega 3 fatty acids. What do you think?

« on: June 26, 2012, 10:52:48 pm »
I recently started reading Wolf's The Paleo Solution and i found all his book material intriguing, makes sense, and easy to understand.
Cooked Paleo, cooking for 8 to 10mins meals. ALmost like whole food's diet without grains and dairy plus exercise.

is this a recent post by him?

ofcourse it is. It's his response to the accusations by Adams.

What do you guys think of Mike Adams, is he an honest journalist, or a guy with an agenda?

What's his reason now? In a nutshell?
An asteroid had hit the earth and stopped this evolution from happening anymore due to release of kryptonite like radiation?

humans didnt evolve from monkeys. otherwise there wont be monkeys or there would still be humans half-evolved between monkeys and humans, meaning evolution is still taking place.

Why?

since walking will disturb the flow of blood to your stomach and affect your digestion. Ideally, you should rest, do nothing for half an hour at least. Not sleep, not walk. Sit, browse the net, read a book after a meal. Watch tv....etc.

but this is ofcourse assuming that darwin's theory of evolution is correct and that all the human race evolved from primates.

Dr. Amen can show you in a brain scan what alcohol consumption (even small amounts) does to people generally.

Okay, so you re saying alcohol even in small amounts is bad for us. Fair enough. What does those brain scans tell / show us in a nutshell?

and those are results based on scientific studies, you can eat almost 10 grilled steaks if you marinate them with beer / wine to have the same negative effects of 1 which is unmarinated. That's how i see it as well. The other half of the cup which is full.

I have noticed that alot of users are against the slightest consumption of alcohol even that miniscule amount found in herbal alcohol based extracted tinctures.

Here is what i found after some reading:

Soaking red meat in a wine - or beer - based marinade for six hours drops levels of the alleged carcinogenic compounds from grilling by up to 88%, according to a study from the Univercity of Porto in Portugal.

According to a study in the Journal of the American Medical Association that analyzed the life-style factors of nearly 6000 patients, consuming an alcoholic drink or two daily makes you 97% more likely to reach age 85.

Freelee's brother jumped ship. 
This is taken from his FB while fending some angry vegan girls. Poor freelee she was so proud of him :-( :

"Who said I didnt try to understand my deficiencies? I love it when people jump to conclusions without all the info.. filling the blank spaces to justify releasing their own frustrations of the world under the careful guise of compassion.

And YES my own health does come before the animals I eat.. It took me a while to remember that but nature created me with the ability to make my own decisions and to evolve to be more powerful and resourceful than any other animal, hence allowing humans to kill and eat them. Nature is not always a thing of beauty.. animals kill the babies of other animals and they dont flinch when they do.. they are simply living out natures programming. I strayed from the path.. felt crook for too long and returned to what made sense."

Do you think the durian rider will make a video about him?

Iodine is very good; if few drops are taken, it will give you the kick / energy you're seeking for. Give it a try.

But why would you want a pancreatic supplement? Did he tell u the reason?
