Wisdom Wednesday

Tip:
I always make a large amount of brown rice when I make it because it takes so long to cook (55 minutes) compared to my other whole grains of choice—quinoa, millet, steel-cut oatmeal and faro (15 minutes). Then I have leftover rice to use in another recipe. Like this Brown Rice & Roasted Vegetable Salad.

Join the Food Revolution With Me

Image
I hope you were able to watch and learn from The Truth About Cancer: A Global Quest docu-series. Perhaps you even invested in the videos— I did —and plan on watching again to get the maximum benefit and so you can pass the videos on to friends and family. I hope you got that there is not just one way to heal from cancer without harm to your body, but multiple. You can put together a protocol that works for you—with or without the help of a practitioner. I told you I would be passing on valuable educational opportunities so you could be as knowledgeable as me about your health. If you look to the so-called healthcare system (really should be called disease management ) you may not succeed in getting healthy. You really are in control of your health. Talk About Food Getting to the heart of how we become healthy and heal from disease or avoid disease in the first place, we must look at food . Coming up this weekend is the start of the Food Revolution Summit . Are you worried about what’s...

Green Tea ~ 6 Ways It Fights Cancer

Image
I  LOVE  coffee. I mean I like the taste—never ruined it with sugar (yeah, even me a former sugar addict). So when I found I needed to eliminate coffee from my diet, I was devastated—kind of describes how I felt about many things I needed to stop eating/drinking. Reading the book  Nature's Cancer-Fighting Foods by Verne Varona  started me on my healing diet, which I attribute to  the cure for my hereditary curse . Green tea was one of several things I added to fight cancer, which tended to grow in my colon. Most are familiar with the addictive properties of caffeinated coffee—just try a day without it and get  smacked  with a whopper  caffeine withdrawal  headache. But did you know that coffee, regular and decaf, is very acid in the body? When the body becomes acidic due to a bad diet (consumption of processed foods with artificial ingredients and sugar), it becomes a cancer-producing, inflammatory environment.

Orange Zest Cranberry Sauce Recipe

Image
I love whole cranberry sauce and found some  ready-made I really like. Trader Joe's makes a whole cranberry sauce with orange zest, but it's a bit sweeter than I prefer for my no-sugar diet. This year I made my own cranberry sauce following a recipe from PCRM  (Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine). PCRM promotes a personal responsibility approach to medicine starting with a plant-based diet. Although I don't agree with every detail of the PCRM recommended diet, I am behind their goal of dramatically changing the way doctors treat chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, obesity, and cancer. PCRM puts prevention over pills and other medical interventions, encouraging doctors to empower their patients to take control of their own health. With a few tweaks from the original PCRM recipe, I made this cranberry sauce for Thanksgiving and will likely repeat it for Christmas dinner. I squeezed juice from the orange I grated for the zest rather than use orange j...
