Back to Basics 18 y
raw milk,,, Back to basics
My entire life has been a ”back to Basics” kind of lifestyle... I trust my instincs as far as my health goes.... So it is probably the reason I’ve been slim most of my life... I never bought into Antibiotics as the Majik Pill... Cannot stomach the ”Cold Cures” aisle of any drugstore or supermaket... They are right up there with the aisle of ”Junk Food” in any supermarket...... Hell I’ve even given up on junk food... They used to be good when they were a junk food..... At least you knew what you were buying...
Let me regress here.... When I was quite young, a cousin of some ki ... read more
Nite Shift Health 18 y
Working the night shift is being upside down for a big portion of your life...
I’ve been upside down for so long it sees normal to me.
When I leave for work, it’s not too bad, after all no one is coming
home and ending the day. But coming home from my job, my friends
are rushing around getting ready for work, so I just grab a beer and
tell them to have a good day at work and they tell me to have a nice
sleep...
Working the nite shift can seriously damage your health and never mind what it does to your brain cells.....
The experts tell you that the best sleep is before midnight... Since that is the high energy time on the job for me, it’s not an option.. ... read more

I’ve been drinking Kombucha for a month and Kefir a week now seriously. 6 ounces three times a day on the Kombucha and 3 cups of Kefir. No significant changes, but then, there really wasn’t much wrong with me ”yet”, but I have notices little things like the brown spots (fr ... read more
I HATE plastic 19 y
Plastic leeches
Well, my Kombucha tea was and is a success... I’ve been drinking it daily. Since I made my tea with green tea it tastes like ginger ale and wine... Gee I luv wine, could get used to this.
I bought this white plastic (ugh plasatic) bucket to brew 5 gallons at a time, started with 2 gallons, with all the taste testing that didn’t leave me with much as long as I was doing the continuous brewing.
Well this plastic thingy has got to go, I’m not into plastic, so I am looking for gallon jugs. I certainly don’t want another ”sun tea” jug with a cow on it. All I want is a few gallon jugs ... read more
Foot Reflexology 19 y
Foot Reflexology
Over the years I’ve picked up a few positive things to do for myself that is healthy and some of these have stayed with me and some have fallen by the wayside, sometimes some of these wayside things just need to be revisited. One of these ”sleeper” things is Foot reflexology
Reflexology, also called zone therapy, is based on the notion that each body part is represented on the hands and feet and that pressing on specific areas on the hands or feet can have therapeutic effects in other parts of the body. Most proponents claim:
* The body is divided into 10 longitudinal zones—fiv ... read more

I sure w ... read more

Kombucha, rejuvelac, Kefir grains, foot reflexologyA baby boomer wanting to be healthy
I’m a baby boomer turning 60 next year. The 60’s,,,,, we ate rice and vegetables, drank a lot of beer and toked a little herb. The is a journey of why I am as healthy as I am today in spite of a bout with alcholism, drug dabbling, smoking cigarettes, an illegal abortion, will probably think of more as I get into this blog.
I was raised in a small farming community in Northeast Pennsylvania, so I do remember what ”raw” milk tastes like. I also know what eating vegetables taste like in the garden warmed by the warm air and sun.
Picking berries (strawberries, blackberries and blueb ... read more
