mineral oil
Is it harmful to use mineral oil on the skin occasionally (the same way one would use walnut oil: on slightly damp skin after showering...)? The mineral oil does not have added vitamin E. In fact the part of the site on oils refers to mineral oil...it seems to quote other online sources, which I wil...

dietary ingenuity
For some time, too, I look at "raw vegan" type recipes-- which seemed so attractive (many of the fruit-nut desserts).... It seemed they LOOKED more like the foods I was "used to"...And I even had some temptation toward the dehydrated low-sugar fruit recipes (bell pepper purees mixed with crushed nut...

positive differences
I posted recently that it is an amazing feeling to not feel cravings for foods, once the diet is truly established in one... What seemed 'emotional' about the struggle to give up certain things was worn away for me by an urgent need to get better...so much of it was really not a struggle, but a nece...

potato crisps/potato chips
Dehydrate some nice fruits (to crispiness) in the same shape and size as a chip or crisp, then dip it in olive oil and that will be the happiest food there is....

diet
I mentioned elsewhere on the board the one munch food that indeed was somewhat involuntary: that is to say, raw butter and/or ghee. I wanted it for the cholesterol content and could not tolerate eggs for awhile, and wondered about tolerating raw fish. So even that was not out of preference. I still ...

site article
Please do.
Otherwise the article on the site has the potential to be completely depressing.

Wai
Ah; no-- With medications that (because they were herbal) were almost the same story as munch foods. And they went of course completely against much of what the diet says about toxins in plants, etc. So I suppose I really meant I finally enjoyed the nice ancillary effect of simply eating without com...

A very long time on it (almost as long as it has been available)--
And recent success.

clear
I just want to insert here (there have been very many comments like this from others, too) that the diet is amazing PARTICULARLY WHEN CRAVINGS GO AWAY.... (Cravings for cooked food substances, that is)... To eat in an uncomplicated fashion cannot be imagined until this point is reached. Meals are no...

article
Oscar-- It would also be excellent to include in that article on the site the reminder that not all societies in time subscribe to the 1-on-1, male-female model of the family (the modern "nuclear family")..... One forgets in reading the article on the site that in fact the modern world's model is on...

glycogen/anaerobic exercise
Ah; thank you--- The vomiting part is just peculiar to me-- especially in very hot, humid conditions. Somehow anaerobic exercise (probably just beyond the limit of what I can do, and perhaps too strenuous, in some way) combined with highly-acid foods seems to stimulate a vomit response. It is not be...

Indeed it does not always have to include physical expression (love, that is).... It supersedes this biological discussion entirely. It is amazing to find (at least (?)) one other person who-- perhaps because of circumstance or some overall pattern that will never be comprehended by the mind-- under...

anaerobic exercise
I do sprints while running; in fact I have some anaerobic elements daily in my running. My mental focus is much better than it ever was before on a cooked food diet-- I do not feel flustered or overwhelmed; panicky, and can control the intervals more efficiently. For those who are not familiar with ...

water softener
The link for the above has changed; it is: http://caycecures.com/catalog/rainshower.html Does a home water softener create water that is suitable for drinking as well as washing the skin? I believe it is high in sodium (from the column in its mechanism that exchanges the minerals) so perhaps it is e...
