Re: Fighting cravings for munch food

One of the possible reasons for chocolate cravings has to do with tetrahydro-beta-carbolines. The darker the chocolate, the more it contains.

Re: Aytundra's Diary (not Wai diet)

Yeah, I ate raw Brie when transitioning from a standard diet to Wai. This lunch seems kinda lacking in energy, though relatively healthy :)

Re: Misunderstood milk

When looking at history and tradition, I think it's important to keep in mind that survival and availability are more important than health.
