Classes begin!

Today the real classes began...and are going to go until 10 pm. We began this morning with Nutrition and Healing. I will be buying a binder to contain the overwhelming amount of information I have already accumulated in handouts.

Some of the key points I have learned that you might be interested in:
-Listen to your body and what it's craving. If you eat well regularly your body will know what food you need.
-Never get a tumor biopsy without first applying honey to the skin. The honey will coat the needle and for unknown reasons will prevent the cells that attach to the outside of the needle from spreading outside the tumor.
-Honey also heals open wounds, burns, surgical cuts, and diabetic ulcers when applied topically
- When children with a cough are given a spoonful of honey before bed they cough less than they do when they are given a spoonful of children's cough "medicine"
-Honey that is heated (as in tea or milk) loses some nutrients in the heating
- There is a monosaccharide called N-acetylgalactosamine that can only be derived from mammalian and shark cartilage or red algae Dumontiaceae...good case for not being entirely veg (sardines and anchovies are also a good way of getting this if the idea of knawing on bones doesn't appeal to you). The reason this is an important contribution to your diet is because it inhimbitits metasitasis (a.k.a. cancer reproduction/maintainance.)
-conventionally grown produce has a four-digit number on the sticker. Organic has five-digits begining with a 9. Genetically modified information has five-digits that begin with an 8.
-Coconut oil is god when it comes to cooking oils. Olive oil is second, but best when not heated.
-Scrambled eggs and hard-boiled eggs lose their nutrients. If you eat eggs, make sure the yolk is runny.
-Don't eat more than a handful of nuts per day because they inhibit calcium uptake.

And so much more! But those were my favorites. Hope you enjoy!
