Re: Heart inflammation

Hi RRM. Yes, I may be moving to a less polluted city at some point, but not in the next year or so. Is there any evidence of the effect of heavy pollution (such as in beijing) vs. say smoking or drinking? Clearly very bad for skin and immune system but should be weighed against the benefits of livin...

Re: Heart inflammation

Thanks RRM, your insight is of huge value. A few weeks have passed, I never took the ibuprofen or any other medication, just got lots of sleep and as little toxins as possible. Is your pain relieved by sitting up and bending forward and worsened by lying down or taking a deep breath in? Investigate ...

Heart inflammation

Hi, I'm a big fan of this website. I am not on the sample diet anymore but deeply inspired by the website in the way I eat. I've had light chest pains over the last few days and visited a clinic to do a full body check. Turns out the sack protecting the heart is swollen, most likely by virus infecti...

A traveller's experience on applying the wai diet

I just came back yesterday to Europe after a long time travelling around the world, which has given me a lot experiences and, I guess, new perspectives. I've been trying to eat as much wai as possible, without conflicting with my other objectives in life - which is easier said than done! Having been...

When I lived in Sweden, I used to buy Bramhults for my orange juice needs instead of juicing it myself, but I soon realised that there is no substitute for the real thing. The oranges they're made of certainly aren't ripe and the acidity will hurt your teeth in the long run. My stomach also felt a l...

I have an important exam tomorrow and I'm contemplating whether I should take 3-4 yolks to breakfast tomorrow in preparation for the exam. My sharpness increases dramatically the days I've been eating yolks, but on the other hand I often feel a bit drowsy afterwards. What do you think is best for my...

Teeth and hair

As you may have read, I've been drinking orange juice from the store the last months or so (I know, it's stupid), along with sugar, oil plus 5-6 fruits a day, eggs, sashimi every second day and munch food when I'm at school or travelling. First of all, my teeth are stronger than ever, but they have ...

Thanks bambi for the tip, I'm going to get myself a juicer and try it out for a week or so. It's not that much work, really, and it tastes a lot better than the OJ I've been buying lately. It doesn't taste very fresh, and I'm suspecting that the oranges used to produce them weren't really that ripe ...

How can we be so sure that there is no possibility of infected eggs? It seems that the bird flue has reached sweden anyway... still no reason to worry?

Thanks for all the information thomas. I followed your (and the other michael-guy's) advice and bought myself a bottle of high-quality olive oil for around €23 in a delikatessen-boutique, just to see how olive oil should taste like. To say the least, I was stunned by the difference to the €6 superma...

Eating on the run

Hi everybody! I discovered wais diet and ideas for about a year ago and I have been on and off the diet since then for different reasons - at home I am 95% strict, but when I am away from home I find it very difficult to maintain good eating habits. I guess it would be possible to starting juicing a...
