permaculture

[linDARAY@att.net]

Nice try, Tripp- But no. 

I thought the same for years, too.. Turned out that it was only a stopgap 
control measure for me to keep on the way I was going, which is what you 
jokingly suggest- 

As I continued my normal research, I began to realize that many folks who 
overeat to obesity are struggling with bodies which are craving real 
nutrients, yet the person's food intake quality is so nutrient-deficient that 
their craving to eat never cuts off-because the body is actually starving- 
For usable nutrients though, not for a full stomach. 

They can't get their stomachs to hold enough of the cr@p they eat, to get 
enough nutrition to fuel their bodies with. Even if they could eat enough to 
do the job, they would then not be able to eliminate the dross from such a 
volume. Dead food.

I'm not fat, but I looked at that data and thought about my observations.

In my case, it felt like my body was trying to get a nutrient that wasn't 
present in the salt that I was using, and which the Celtic Salt provided. 
Celtic Sea Salt IIRC has about 84 different minerals and trace elements in 
it, whereas most commonly available salts have only Sodium Chloride and 
Silicon Dioxide I think it was, as a free-flowing agent, plus whatever 
Iodizing agent. 

BTW since I started experimenting with other oils, coconut, fish oil, cod 
liver oil, flax oil, peanut and sesame oils, etc., the fat craving has mostly 
dropped off too. Now I am not constantly fighting dehydration the way I used 
to.

Interesting huh.

And, in the end, we will not find a one size fits all diet.
Nor should we expect one.
Each individual finds themselves in as complex an environment as any of the
square inches of soils in our permaculture dreams.
So, we must respect that what is right for one is not necessarily for
another.
>From there, we can share what we are doing that works, and when something
sounds like it's in the zone for someone else, they can benefit from it.
All is taken 'under advisement'.

I have been on a long and winding journey with healthful eating, etc.
Currently, I have been following a particular guru who spoke to the urges
and nudges that life was sending my way.
Her name is Tonya Zavasta, and as a Russian, she takes advantage of a host
of Russian research.
I've read her book Quantum Eating, and have shifted over to 100% raw (even
though I respect greatly Paul Pitchford's Healing with Whole Food Compendium
of Asian medicinal knowledge) and am no longer drinking water per se.  Her
chapter on the dry fast is really amazing...

Not for everyone, to be sure. But doing wonders for me at the moment.

Vive la Difference!
