    It is my understanding that this is the nutrition thread that Questioner was referring to with her request for me to copy and paste the recipe I posted on the unfeeling thread. Here it goes.

    When my daughters last had the flu I held them as they vomited and kept them calm... and spoon fed them broth with a high sea salt content balanced by maple syrup (a sugar). A little spoonfull at a time--- and they began to recover quickly due to the hydrating effect of the broth and the high vitamin/mineral content of the broth. I have found for my own children and self this works better than pedialyte... My kids tend to vomit more when given pedialyte. It seems to have too much "chemical" stuff in it for their systems.

    Here is the recipe (organic veggies are best... but as budget allows):

    2-3 carrots (washed and unpeeled)
    6 stalks of celery including the leafy tops and the white bottom portions (washed and unpeeled)
    1 whole onion including onion skins
    1 clove of garlic
    Chicken bones with meat and skin
    2Tbs salt
    1 handfull of seaweed (any combo of one or more of dulse, Digitata, kombu, alaria,nori) or nettles

    Process:

    Cut onion in half and put in a pot. Add veggies whole or chopped. Add Chicken. Add Salt. Cover with water so that it is 1 inch above the food. Bring to a boil. Let boil for 1 hour. As it is boiling skim the froth that rises to the top off of the soup and discard. Add water as the soup is cooking to keep the water level above the food-- as needed throughout the cooking time. After 1 hour, reduce heat and simmer for an additional 1-2 hours. At the end of cooking. Remove from heat. Strain through a colander into a large pot or bowl. Discard all veggies and chicken.

    Return to stove heat to a simmer. Add 1 Tbs Sea salt. Add in seaweed(s) or nettles. Simmer for 10 min. Remove from heat. Ladle into a bowl. Cool slightly. Add in 2 Tbs of Pure Maple Syrup. Stir to combine. Serve.

    Now when I begin to make broth they come running to "taste" it.

    Love--

    from healthy nutrition i'd understand a diet with foods non-toxified.

    such as milk, fruits, vegetables, grain etc.

    and beyond these (some more) are not good for human body.

    Because even fish is containing mercury to some level.

    i think therefore best type is without animal meat.

    Though human body cant live well without meat, we can try to take it minimally.

    not a doctor though, i see everywhere words against meat and its dangers.

    from intestinal cancer to liver meat is not good for human body.

    with hormons, steroids and additives in it much toxicitiy comes to human.

    for all this vegetarian style including honey milk and minimal meat seems ideal.

You can nourish your soil with products of Light, the light that comes from the Sub-Logos; and your vegetables will incorporate into their bodies, that loving Light.

    As I work in my garden, I send love to my plants.

    When I harvest and eat those plants, what I take into my body, is Love, Light, and Sunshine.

    Today I harvested wild lettuce from my front yard. There is this huge wild lettuce plant that I could swear wasn't there yesterday! So instead of being able to pick only a few tiny leaves, I was able to enjoy bountiful harvest. Of course I thanked the plant profusely! In fact I am enjoying that wild lettuce right now. Nothing died. There was a continuous process of life exchanged from the Earth to me. I feel the energy, the life, the condensed SunLight, right now.

    I also picked some dandelion flowers. OMG have you ever eaten dandelion flowers??? They are exquisite! They're like little orbs of SunLight. I picked some yesterday and ate them immediately and they were succulent and delicious. I saved a few in a ziploc in the frig for later, and they weren't nearly as good. Eating live plants fresh from the Earth and Sun is a joy!

    The dandelion is one of the most misunderstood plants. I cringe whenever I see people killing dandelions and other weeds, with chemicals, in their effort to have a pristine, homogenized lawn. How boring! And how tragic! All those wonderful plants, so alive, so bountiful, and they kill them, in favor of a plastic lawn. Then they buy such dead food from the stores, when they had a chance to eat living foods right out of their front yards.

    Since last year when I started working from home, and am more tuned in to what's growing in my yard, I've seen my front and back yards both metamorphose into a garden of (mostly edible!) weeds. What happened to the grass? We've been living here 26 years and never before has the grass been taken over by weeds. Why now?

    Most of us have all sorts of edible and nutritious things growing in our yards, yet aren't aware of that fact. My yard, in the spring, has various mustards (including rocket), chickory, dandelion, and other greens; and I am blessed to have a basswood tree (Littleleaf Linden) in my front yard. In the spring, when the leaves are young and tender, they are delicious eaten raw; they rival any salad green. My neighbors must think I'm batty when they see me browsing a tree in my front yard.....Tongue

    Dandelions, by the way, are good for more than just a snack. Like daikon radishes and tulip-poplar trees, they have the habit of bringing bases (Calcium, Magnesium) up from the subsoil, and depositing those cations in the topsoil. They improve the soil in which they grow.

    While we're on the subject of yard plants, let's not forget that many flowers are edible and delicious. Nasturtiums are one of my favorite foods, for example; they taste like watercress (to which they are related). The seed pods of tiger lilies can be stir-fried; the Japanese have edible strains of Chrysanthemums; marigold petals are edible, and beautiful; and the list goes on and on.....Cool

    I'm not sure what you're basing this on, but I would respectfully disagree. I've been a vegetarian for 29 years and I have a 21-year-old son who has never had a bite of any kind of meat in his life. He's stronger than his meat-eating friends.

    Toxic foods on a score of 0-200, 200 being most toxic

    Best foods
    l. Corn
    2. Sweet potatoes
    3. Cauliflower
    4. Brussel sprouts
    5. Grapes (U.S.)
    6. Bananas
    7. Plums
    8. Watermelon
    9. Broccoli

    Worst foods
    1. Strawberries - 189 Strawberry growers everywhere use large amounts of pesticides, particularly fungicides
    2. Bell peppers (green and red) - 155 Bell peppers are more heavily contaminated with neurotoxic insecticides than all other crops analyzed.
    3. Spinach - 155 Spinach contains DDT, permethrin, chlorthalonil and other carcinogenic pesticides.
    4. U.S. grown cherries - 154 Cherries from the U.S. are three times more contaminated with pesticides than their imported counterparts, which are among the cleanest fruits and vegetables analyzed. Domestic cherries were found to contain twenty-six different pesticides!
    5. Peaches - 150 Peaches are heavily contaminated with cancer causing fungicides and neuro-toxic pesticides.
    6. Mexican grown cantaloupe - Cantaloupes from Mexico tested positive for two or more pesticides in forty-eight percent of the samples
    7. Celery - Celery is a major source of exposure to neurotoxic pesticides.
    8. Apples - Apples contain thirty-six different pesticides, more than any other fruit or vegetable
    9. Apricots - Apricots contain high levels of pesticides, fourteen different kinds to be exact
    10. Green beans - Green beans are a major source of carcinogenic fungicides, neurotoxins, and endocrine disruptors.
    11. Chilean-grown grapes - Grapes from Chile add a load of cancer causing and endocrine-disrupting fungicides
    12. Cucumbers - 114 Cucumbers contain unacceptable levels of Dieldrin, an extremely carcinogenic pesticide that was banned in the U.S. over twenty years ago. Unfortunately it is persistent in the soil and is taken up by cucumbers. One of every fourteen cucumber samples from across the U.S. and Mexico contained this highly toxic compound.

    As disturbing as the news is of widespread toxicity in our fresh foods, according to the Environmental Working Group, the picture is actually much bleaker than painted by data. Some of the foods listed as the least contaminated have incredibly high contamination rates if they come from certain countries. Examples are pears from Korea, blackberries and green peas from Guatemala, peas from China, kiwis from Chile, carrots and leaf lettuce from Mexico, and green onions and tomatoes from the United States. Farmers must contend with some 80,000 plant diseases, 30,000 species of weeds, 1,000 species of nematodes and more than 10,000 species of insects, so the problem of pesticide residues is not likely to end soon. Every year 100-150 million pounds of pesticides that cannot be used in the United States are exported for use in other countries. The foods that are treated with these banned chemicals are then imported back into the US and Canada, to be sold at grocery stores. It is the recommendation of the EWG that we buy organic produce whenever possible!

    I liked that. His perception is very clear and stated well. It was very easy to digest BigSmile

    Thanks for the link dear sister Smile

    Here's a good article on "organic" foods and the labelling system used within the USA. It is not as black and white as one might expect.

    Anything that says "spices" or "natural additives" is speaking of chemicals... and then the newest twist is "organic high fructose corn syrup."

    Buy food from regional producers with the least amount of ingredients... or from national or international brands that you have researched and tried and know... There are many ethical producers out there selling thier wares... it is simply up to us to find them and purchase the goods.
