Raw Food Diet - What is the Downside?   Let us say someone has just now become aware of the harmful effects of cooking and freezing food and now wishes to 'go raw'. The downside is that he is barraged with warring camps of raw food enthusiasts. Some agree on a few points but take sides and seek to disqualify the opposition on most issues. That to me IS the downside. Briefly, the major camps consist of: Raw vegans who eat only raw plant food , but raise the temperature of 'raw' to 115 degrees Fahrenheit Raw vegetarians who eat fruit, vegetables and sprouts, nuts, seeds, grains, legumes, eggs and honey but no red meat, and mostly no fish or poultry. For most vegetarians, eggs and dairy are included. The Raw Paleolithic diet is one of the raw animal food diets. The Raw Paleolithic diet includes raw meat and organs but excludes raw dairy, grains and legumes. The Primal Diet is a raw food diet which stems from traditional and primitive diets that include meats (fatty me

Small Talk Tip - Use the Word "Because" in Order to Get People to Comply to Your Wishes   The "Because" Request Here's an awkward situation that helps demonstrate a key element of human behavior: A few years ago, I had lunch with some friends at a micro-brewery near the beach. After receiving our entrees, my friend Joel asked me, "Steve, do you mind if I have a taste of your sandwich?" I thought about that request for a while and then replied, "Actually, I do mind. Why don't you just eat your own food and I'll eat mine. You can order this sandwich for yourself the next time we're here, okay?" Joel was really offended that I didn't comply with his request. But I didn't feel like he gave my any real reason to abide and didn't want to share my delicious sandwich with anyone. And besides, guys don't usually share! Here's the point that this little sandwich episode illustrates: A well-known principle of huma

40th Wedding Anniversary Party - Plan, Enjoy & Reminisce!   When planning for a 40th wedding anniversary party, the couple should feel and consider how they would like to honor their special day. Reaching a new year of marriage is certainly an occasion worth celebrating for. Reaching 40 years of marriage is definitely a celebration worth planning for! The success of a party is anchored on the ability to organize and plan ahead. But first, relax and feel the kind of party you like, whether a formal sit down dinner with relatives and friends or a casual beach or bbq bash. Both formal and casual themes need committees to help run the event smoothly. It is not enough to just organize a perfectly fun and meaningful event. The cost should also be considered.

Gluten Free Do They Exist and Does it Matter? Eating only gluten free products is vital to any celiac or gluten intolerant person, so what about alcohol in general? Firstly it appears that there are three distinct types: General liquor, gf beer and gf wines. GLUTEN FREE ALCOHOL Many articles suggest that as long as alcoholic beverages are not based on wheat or other gluten grains that they will be without gluten. They suggest using liquors such as grappa (made from grapes), ouzo (aniseed, fennel seed aromatic plants ) rum (sugar Cane ), sake (rice ) etc. Other articles have suggested that the protein is destroyed in the distillation process so that all alcoholic beverages will be gf. However a 1992 Flemish Celiac Society report found gluten in several varieties of distilled liquor. The levels varied from zero to 200-mg gluten/liter with the highest amount in "Creme de Framboise" (200 mg/liter) and French brandy VSOP had 180 m g/liter. Subsequently, sites have spec

A Detox Fasting Paradise - Pristine Private Island - Coconut, the Tree of Life and Organic Raw Food     Dedicated to my wonderful island coconut trees, the trees of life. I am often asked, "What encouraged you to follow your inner child guides to a pristine private island paradise to live the rest of your life surrounded by coconut, the tree of life?" Here is my story. At age 36, after traveling the globe extensively, I had a strong vision to settle down in my own pristine Shangri-la with many coconut trees. I was then on a 16 year world sojourn, traveling together with my English partner Mark. Our adventures had taken us to some of the world's most pristine, rugged, serene, remote tropical wilderness and animal reserves, plus canyons, rivers, lakes and island paradises fringed with coconut trees. Though shy and uncomfortable with people since a little girl, I was totally relaxed in Mother Nature, particularly in the tropics near a cleansing sea and eating organic

Food For Dry Skin - Cod Liver Oil   If you have still recall, our parents may have been nagging us to take that spoonful of cod liver oil whilst we are in the process of growing up. Most of the time, however, it's against our wishes and some of us just dread taking this supplement and eventually sworn off it when we grew independent from our parents. However, if you have been experiencing dry skin recently, it pays to understand what are the benefits cod liver can do (or helps to do) for your dry skin, and perhaps motivate you to take that spoonful of cod liver once again. Benefits to the Skin Cod liver oil contains Omega-3 fatty acids. Most of the time however, these fatty acids are found in fish oils and scientific research have shown that it is pretty beneficial to good health and skin. In addition, cold liver oil contains useful amount of vitamin A and vitamin D, which have been found solely lacking in today's diet of many adults. It's found that are 100,000 IU of vita
