Cooking tips

Good food alone cannot make you healthy and happy. You also need sunshine (for vitamin D and strong biorhythms), moderate exercise, relaxation, and love. A daily walk outdoors will give you the first three. Use a water-filter and nontoxic household products (available from us & elsewhere). Get mercury fillings out of your teeth. Avoid drugs and manmade chemicals whenever possible. If your health remains poor, find a doctor who will search for the root causes, not suppress the symptoms with drugs and surgery.

Buying an Oven : In gas appliances, look for blue flames; yellow flames indicate the gas is burning inefficiently and an adjustment may be needed. Consult your manufacturer or your local utility.

Weight loss info

The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi index weight loss program is based around the glycaemic index, a list of foods and a score illustrating the speed that the carbs of the food type gets transformed to sugar in your system. The claim is that long-acting types of food (ie those with a low Gi score), will keep you feeling full for longer and help to eat fewer food without craving snacks all the time.
It is also extremely good for folk with diabetes, as the low GI types of food are useful in preventing increases in glucose secretion.
