Guest guest Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 Hi Marjorie, I have the book Nourishing Traditions. Its strange that I received it as a gift from my vegetarian cousin. I have found a great deal of useful info in that book I make kimchi-and love fermented foods. I don't agree with many of the ideas...of well te heavy duty meat consumption. I think it seems to apply to a family who s outin the fields working on a farm. If that were the case I think you could be very healthy on what is touted in the book. But there is quite a bunch of good stuff too-like sprouting -some info on enzymes and a great many recipes on fermented drink & foods. We try to get raw milk when we can but its not easy also in the book although it is not really a discussion for a raw foodss group is the idea of soaking grains before cooking-for better digestion and assimilation. I also realize I have gone OT about the fat & cravings-I think a looking at the big picture IS important :-) It is one thing to incorporate what works from that book into your kitchen and onto the table but not a good thing IMHO to get addicted to eating a great deal of animal products. Em -t an > issue from many angles. I have a friend who swears that following > Nourishing Traditions (a diet very high in animal products, for > those of you who don't know) gives her incredible energy. She is > 100 pounds overweight and can't understand why she can't seem to > lose the weight. She is currently undergoing a lot of colon > cleansing. Well, she's not really looking at the big picture, is > she? If you are craving something, really look at the craving from Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
