i've always visualized you contained in something or the other rather than you just laying like a wet puddle spread all over the kitchen floor!


>>>> hey, now i have a problem with this! i am like a puddle, under a rock.


cider vinegar is considered by some to be alkaline while regular distilled vinegar is acidic. a case can be made that the perceived alkaline reaction in the body is, however, at the expense of minerals being drawn out of the body/bones to enable the alkaline balance. that mineral drain on the body could only go on for a limited number of years. in a similar fashion, lemon juice is suposedly alkaline in reaction...but it can do a number on one's teeth.


>>>> could be. i don't recall this being a problem with acv tho. my persusal lead me to believe that it was due to the type of (chain) reaction that rendered it safe in this regard. don't know. but i think 1 tsp. every morning is fine - with or without b soda. perhaps the soda is strictly for the teeth.


most of my food comes from a super blender. i add special mineral supplements to my "cold soup" along with some acv... hoping to make the minerals more bio-active. i also put some fulvic acid into the vinegar to help in its way to activate the minerals. (fulvic acid is a little known but very important substance)


>>>>> have heard the many great things about fulvic. it's one of those "sounds too good to be true" things. yet in this case there seems to be science backing it up. looking forward to get this on my plate.


cleaning and killing with vinegar

regular vinegar can be a big help in cleaning veggies and killing off hordes of hiding, hitchhiking parasites. (you can find more on how to do it on the net) ... after spraying with the vinegar, rubbing, etc. the proces is continued by spraying on hydrogen peroxide (drug store variety) then finishing off with a water rinse -- and if the food is not adversly genetically modified by m....o its hopefully fit to eat.


>>>>>>> we gotta go to draconian extremes now just to eat. i myself have been using that fruit/veggie (spray on) wash. you let it soak for a minute. don't know how effective it really is tho.
this is one of the reasons i get annoyed about the use of other substances. that is, i think junk food it worse than some other demonized things.


note: i'm not sure about adding baking soda to the vinegar since it neutralizes the acidity, which might end up destroying the effectiveness.(using soda to perserve coloring in vegetables does destroy vitamins.)


>>>>> i'd have to go back to my sources. but this was taken into consideration. it's definitely for the teeth, for one. but i do remember the guy saying that "it's more effective" with it. yadda....


about the oil-pulling. (swishing safflower or sunflower oil around in the mouth, between the teeth) i don't know if it is a ploy to sell more oil, or if it really works. i can't see how it can hurt if the oil is not adulterated. yeah, i've tried it -- have a big bottle of sunflower oil next to my sink. i have not noticed any change in my appearance -- but then i could remove ten years from my appearance and still look like just another old geezer. perhaps the ritual of the oil-pulling is what is really important...positive thinking through visualizing results, or using a mantra like, "day by day in every way i'm getting better and better" (self-help therapeutic motto reccomended by emile coue ...long dead old french guy psychologist )


>>>>> they say sesame oil is the best. the countenance change is seconds after you put it in your mouth. but really, i see/feel no lasting/pronounced changes so far (1 month). but the whole idea is that it kills parasites and bacteria in the mouth. very important. to, it leeches them out to then kill them. this has a long history apparently.

what i want to get this year is one of those holy hand grenades. the chi devices.
