Yum, it's Dilly Bread time again! How I love this stuff! I made this several months ago but forgot to measure the ingredients, so here's the recipe .... finally. Dilly Bread 1 cup quinoa flour 3/4 cup millet flour 5 tablespoons flaxmeal 1 large onion, chopped somewhat finely 4 tablespoons olive oil 4 tablespoons dill seeds 1/2 rounded teaspoon Himalayan salt 1 cup water or as needed thyme and rosemary (for dusting on the top, optional) Mix all the ingredients, except the garnishing seasonings, in a mixing bowl and stir until well mixed. Allow for the flaxmeal to thicken the batter, adding more water or oil if needed. Spoon the thickened batter into an oiled and (quinoa or millet) flour-dusted baking pan, and slide the pan into a preheated oven. Bake for about 35-40 minutes on 350F. The flatbread should be golden on top when done (remembering of course that gluten-free breads do not brown the same as wheat breads). Unlike my earlier version of the Dilly Bread, this version wa...

Iodine deficiency is a widespread problem in the US, and I grew up in the "goiter belt" which includes Michigan as Michigan along with a large swath of territory does not have iodine in the soil. As a result, the lack of iodine in this area makes locals particularly prone to getting goiters, a result of thyroid nutrition deficiency. And especially since I've had Graves Disease, I'm particularly susceptible to iodine insufficiency even now with the disease in "remission". So here's an alternative and natural treatment to help keep more thyroid problems at bay. TEST Apply two (2) drops of tinctured Thy-Well (brand used at Hippocrates Health Institute) iodine to the inside of the upper arm. After 24 hours, if the spot is no longer visible (or even if only slightly visible), it is an indication that the body is iodine deficient. TREATMENT Mix four (4) drops of castor oil and one (1) drop of non-tinctured iodine in the palm of your hand and apply t...

What does the number on a fruit sticker mean? This is a compilation of 3 online sources by RAW EARTH LIVING . Their goal was to uncover the meanings hidden in numbers in those little stickers put on produce in the US so that the consumer can KNOW what he or she is eating ... and if it has been genetically modified, sprayed or is organic. ———————————————————————————————————————–  If there are only four numbers in the PLU, this means that the produce was grown conventionally or “traditionally” with the use of pesticides. The last four letters of the PLU code are simply what kind of vegetable or fruit. An example is that all bananas are labeled with the code of 4011. If there are five numbers in the PLU code, and the number starts with “8″, this tells you that the item is a genetically modified fruit or vegetable. Genetically modified fruits and vegetables trump being organic. So, it is impossible to eat organic produce that are grown from genetically modified seeds. A ...

After an extended vacation outside of Korea, I came back and didn't have any filtered water in my house to drink, so went to the supermarket and bought a couple of bottles, the brand Seoksu, since the "best" brand in Korea SamDaSoo wasn't available that day. Earlier in the year I had reacted to the water , with numbness in the head and arms, but I needed just a couple of bottles till I could get to a filter or get to Costco for the imported Kirkland brand, which doesn't bother me. Well, I drank one glass of the Seoksu bottled water and my feet felt weird within seconds. I looked down and within five minutes my ankles had swollen. Needless to say, I didn't drink much of that water till I could get to the office filter the next day, but by the second glass my ankles were very swollen! That water must have had an instantaneous, and very scary, effect on my kidneys to get that kind of reaction. Thank goodness that within a few hours of drinking the filtered wate...

While at HHI, I met a lady who had breast cancer and in the long process of getting diagnosis and looking for a natural way to treat her cancer, she was introduced to a CNP / RNCP (community nurse practitioner / registered nutritional consulting practitioner).  The practitioner did not and does not give diagnosis. What she gives is an understanding of an individual's blood pathology so that with diet and lifestyle change, alternative approaches to healing, the individual can follow and hopefully manage the pathology outcome with alternative lifestyle rather than invasive medical procedures and therapies.  Candida will show up in the blood, so my friend shared her blood pathology write-up with me. She pointed out that different kinds of organisms have different shapes, and the pathology form has a simple drawing of each organism. Of the 25 possible organisms that her blood test was concerned with, 8 organisms showed up in larger quantities than desirable. The quantitie...

Sources of Gluten Wheat, barley, and rye are all glutinous and for those with celiacs disease and autoimmune diseases, eliminating gluten is essential in order to manage one's health effectively. Not all people allergic to gluten register sensitivities, but for those who do, a variety of symptoms may be displayed, including the very frequent appearance of skin rashes around the neck, arms and legs. Wheat, barley, and rye aren't the only grains with gluten, although they are the most common. To the left is a listing of other grains that contain gluten; many of these grains originated from the big three--wheat, barley and rye.  What is not on the list is oats. Oats does in fact have gluten too, but not in the quantities found in the big three. Also, some oats which are labeled as being gluten-free have been grown and processed with wheat derivatives, therefore, making them toxic to people with gluten allergies although the labeling seems to suggest that those oats ar...

What is wheat grass? One of the richest natural resources of vitamins A, C, D, K and B-complex ... also a natural source of Laetril (B-17) The richest source of chlorophyll, which is the "blood" of plants, with a molecular structure that is almost identical to the hemoglobin molecule of the human blood. Contains beta-carotene, which is found in red, green, and yellow pigmented fruits and vegetables. Beta-carotene acts as a scavenger against harmful molecules flowing naturally through toxins inhaled from cigarette smoke, air pollution, or other environmental toxins. What it will do for you: Drinking wheat grass and green juices helps your body to build red blood cells which carry oxygen to every single cell. Chlorophyll helps wash drug deposits from the body, purifies the blood and organs, and counteracts toxins. Wheat grass helps remove toxic heavy metals (lead, mercury, aluminum) that have become stored in the tissues. Wheat grass juice helps to increase the enz...
