Greenday Veggie Snacks: Okra, Onion, Pumpkin

I am a bit in love with my new little discovery at the international food mart in Itaewon, Seoul. The owner is from Pakistan and gets some of the oddest items mostly from the US, SE Asia, and the Middle East.

People, if they weren't on serious prescriptions, were even encouraged under doctor's guidance not to take their meds and especially to lay off their "health-supporting" supplements. Wow, Brian Clement, the program director and author of several books including Supplements Exposed , told about some people having such serious withdrawals from their supplements that they would have tremors and other disturbing side-effects.
