Guest guest Posted December 1, 2003 Report Share Posted December 1, 2003 Hi Dolly, I heard that rice milk is very sweet so that is why I keep away from it and as for rice cheese...I don't think that I have ever seen here in Australia. I know there is also milk made out of oats as well, but I have found some recipes that by making my own milks such as soy, nut or coconut maybe just as good or even better. I am more concerned with baking as I like to make things and I have already sorted the margarine side out as we have dairy free margarine here so I have found that to be OK. Wendy (Australia) Hi Wendy, I am one of those lucky folk who are allergic to soy products as well. I found that, when I have a taste for milk or cheese, rice milk and rice cheese satisfy the hunger and leave me free of mucus. Dolly http://personals..au - Personals New people, new possibilities.

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2003 Report Share Posted December 1, 2003 Hi Wendy, Start now purchasing what herbs you can and save them until you have all you need. Then you can do the cleanse and it is not a large up front expense. Sadly, life just seems to be inconvenient at times. But then one needs to weigh ones health with the inconvenience of life and decide which is more important. No problem is insurmountable unless you believe it to be. But you can do the juice cleanse all you want and it will make a huge difference in your life and health. The more you do it the better you are going to feel. As for secret additives, I don't know about Oz but most places are required to put the ingredients on their labels. Informed smart shoppers then can read those labels and determine if that product is something they wish to put into their bodies. However, lots of products or additives are given some really funky names so you won't really know what they are. If I pick up something with some really funky name in it I will just put it right back on the shelf. Won't even bother with it. If they can't be honest and tell me exactly what is inside that can I don't need it. My health means more to me than their financial fitness. We all, each and every one of us, must make our own choices as to how we are going to live our lives. Then we must, each and every one of us, reap what we sow. Another thing you may wish to do is to begin drinking distilled water with the juice of 1/2 fresh organic lemon added in. This will begin a process that will eventually dissolve all the mucus from your cells and allow your body to begin eliminating it. This will take time though. If I can give you any more info just let me know.

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2003 Report Share Posted December 1, 2003 OK, so, this may be controversial, but I'll go for it anyway... I was diagnosed gluten intolerant 3 1/2 yrs ago. With the information I now have from Doc's tape and some other investigation (that I'm currently still in the middle of) I cannot find a scientific basis for the "gluten theory". I believe that it is the enzyme inhibitors in grains, seeds, beans, etc that cause the damage. Therefore, my recommendation is to go sprouted grain breads, rather than gluten free. (If you have to have bread at all!) :)Kelli supervixen08 [supervixen08] Monday, December 01, 2003 2:04 PMherbal remedies Subject: [herbal remedies] Re: Dairy AllergyI hope I'm not off subject here, but I caught the words "wheat glutens" and became quite intrigued as to how to avoid them. I have not yet been tested for food allergies (it's on my list of things to do), but I've had an abundance of mucus (my nose is running though not congested, I have a possibly-fungal ear infection for the last 2.5 years, and my eyes produce much more sleep than they have in the past), and while I've ruled out a dairy allergy (I do dairy-free certified organic soy instead), I'm realizing I eat wheat with every meal. I love nut butter sandwiches, whole grain cereal, and whole wheat spaghetti, and I'm trying to find gluten-free organic substitutes that don't have chemicals in them! (And yes, I eat plenty of fruits and veggies--either totally raw or slightly steamed in waterless cookware.) I am fixing to do the 4-wk cleanse soon, I'm getting my ducks in a row beforehand now. I'm trying to find a diet I can live with until then and afterward and remedies for those probs. Thanks to anyone who can help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 1, 2003 Report Share Posted December 1, 2003 for basic, I soak 1/4 almonds in hopefully distilld or RO water for 12 to 14 hrs. they should be swollen and the sprout end swollen. rinse off and place in blender with 1/2 cup distilled or RO water and grind until reall fine, add another half cup of the water and put blender on liquidize. add a half dropper of stevia or just a few drops. i also like a tiny bit of vanilla extract added. i always double this basic recipe as i like to have it available for smoothies or cereal or for what ever else i might need milk. i even make chocolate milk with this by adding coco. love... granny lee - Kelli Bever herbal remedies Monday, December 01, 2003 11:30 AM RE: [herbal remedies] Dairy Allergy I thought that someone had mentioned there was a recipe in the files to make sprouted almond milk, but I couldn't find it on a brief search. Maybe someone has it handy? That might be another alternative to try... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 1, 2003 Report Share Posted December 1, 2003 With my condition, I have to be vitally careful about wheat glutens! Even a little can at times send me to the hospital emergency room. I have found that I have an "easier" time with sprouted grains, if taken in moderation. Once a week or so. We have sprouts going 24/7, and I love the winter wheat sprouts!! But must use discernment and caution. I agree with you, I believe that to a large degree anyway, it is not so much the gluten, but the enzyme inhibitors.

Guest guest Posted December 2, 2003 Report Share Posted December 2, 2003 Okay, I will give my two cents worth here. Basically, from my point of view, all seeds, nuts and grains are meant as food for those rapid little heartbeating animals like birds and squirrels and such. They need the extremely high energy containing starches found in the gluten of these foods to maintain their rapid metabolisms. They have the ability to neutralize the enzyme inhibitors without having to soak them first. Man, on the other hand, needs to be careful eating these foods because of the extremely high energy content contained in the gluten. However, man can not neutralize the enzyme inhibitors without soaking these foods first. This means that if we eat them unsoaked, the enzyme inhibitors will inhibit the enzymatic actions that take place in our bodies constantly. This will create all kinds of problems and wreak havoc on our systems. Too, sprouting these foods will use up most of that high energy gluten and turn it into a living plant (sprout) that man can use safely and eat lots of. Okay, I'm done.
