Hi,
You may find a good used book online or may have to buy a new one.

It is called: A MODERN HERBAL by Mrs M. Grieve F.R.H.S.

Edited and introduced by Mrs C. F. Leyel

It is very good and goes into depth about many things about each kind of plant and or Herb!!

Well worth the cost for info which is helpful, to those really seeking!!

Smile Tis your choice.

Your body won't react to sugars if you don't over indulge in fats (especially bad ones) and protiens (especially animal protein). Cooked food of any kind also seems to set up a negative synegetic reponse. Try going 100% raw (low fat), and see if your fruti tolerance magically changes. Give it a few days to a couple weeks before you further adjust.

The reason that things like kale leave you feeking great is their high mineral content. if you can ever try properly grown wheat or barley grass grown with ocean water you will find a near optimal food source. It is sunshine and minerals animated into food.

For growiing your own, grow it outdoors preferably in raised beds or deepper than average trays. You want good drainage as this kind of grass is not a bog plant and too much water will support mold growth and rot. Get an ocean water product and water your wheat per instructons. Rotate as many trays needed to always have a fresh batch. Obtain a wheatgrass juicer.

Check amazon for any of the Lone Pine series of Edible plants. I have the one for the Rocky Mountains. They make several different ones for different locations. Depending on your area, there are people that give edible plant tours for a hands on approach. I recommend both the book and the tour. Know any natives or shamans?

I know people who live sole on this type of wheatgrass and eat nothing else and have a lecel of health most people can't imagine.

I don't consider *that* an emergency situation. Trust me, there are many, many worse things that can happen, but when a person finally decides in *that* moment to cut off excuses forever, and take charge...magic happens. I have seen it many times. Even wth people with days or even hours to live. Our mind leads the way.

I study belief systems in depth and I know they steer the ship and manifest physical counterparts/realities. A good indication of how we are creating our realities,(and in many cases disease) a pulse if you will, is to look at the language we use. For instance, if it is chalk full of buts, and ifs, and excuses why one *can't* do a particular thing,(throwing up resistnace) I think it's obvious as to how *that* programs the subconscious mind and then attracts the coresponding ongoing experience.


*Note: I have noted from a search that Tina's sleeping problem has been reported for months. Many people report things ongoing yet are not certain what to do or simply repel the universe's attempt at allowing the needed knowledge in. I understand her frustration and that frustration is actually a good thing. It is her psyche saying "Hey, pay attention, I need help here...body needing help."

This is not a slam, just an honest observation, based on my awareness and because you pose a valuable question that can help many who integrate this distinction.


At what point is *the* point in which one takes control? This is why I say we MUST get in the driver's seat and steer where we are going. The software of our mind must be calibrated to seek harmony, solutions, in an open and exploring fashion as opposed to closing down to new ideas(what a great healer freind I know calls "stuckability").

Did the pills help in the given example? Nope! Even if they did short term it is akin to cutting one's nose off in spite of their face. The end result is negative.

We can continue to ignore the blinking dashboard light and the symptoms will get worse and worse. An interesting saying in the healing arts is "they just haven't expereinced enough pain yet" for when a person is resistant to change.

I wrote this response in the sincere desire that it creates a paradigm shift in people who may be stuck in their thinking about what disease is and what are response to it (for it)should be.

Thanks for posing this excellent question.
