Sorry for the late reply, and I only have a few minutes.
I use the word headache, but an MSG 'headache' is really much worse. For me it feels as if the neurons are not communicating, like you are walled off from your own brain. I can't tell you how much it takes for me, it's way less than what's in one ramen "flavor packet". It's been many years since I put 1 and 1 together, so I avoid everything with MSG. Sounds easy until you realize it's in almost everything. Salad dressings, bagged snacks, canned and dried soups, condiments, the list goes on and on. So the headaches are not an issue now, and haven't been for a long time thankfully. The point here is that even if you don't have a reaction to it, it's still doing severe damage. As I said earlier, it's likely most people would never make that connection. They would be easy to convince that they needed this or that prescription to alleviate symptoms that they didn't know the true cause of. I gotta run, post up your thoughts and I'll have more later. :yes: |

Who knows what is in the food they are serving at lunch. Its usually very cheap and poor quality ingredients. I think a lot of people are sensitive to MSG to some degree, so I think it is supposed to be labeled as an ingredient (not sure of its a requirement tho.)
I am surprized at all the allergies kids have these days. I can't ever remember a kid having peanut allergies when I was in school. Now you hear of all sorts of kids having it, and peanut products are generally not even allowed in school anymore. Beyond the food additives and chemical perticides, the packaging of the material is something to beware of. Plastic has all sorts of chemicals that leech out. Never heat your food in plastic containers in microwaves. Microwaving saran wrap is especially bad. |
Agreed Finn, there were none of these ailments years ago, and I think 80% are food related. I had horrible heartburn for years, and couldn't figure that one out either. That was until a split I had with an ex in 2001. I got my own place and didn't get another microwave. The heartburn stopped. Completely. It has not been a problem since. Some time thereafter I stumbled on some very interesting info, and that is, microwave ovens were banned in the USSR and parts of Europe until around 1977. You can find that info or yourself. The plastics, and can linings (Bisphenol A) have been known to have strange effects on hormones, to the point they can change the sex of fish that are subjected to wastewater runoff. So take the plastic toxicity, and then irradiate it. Double whammy.
Luc, next time your daughter has one of her headaches, have her analyze it, Ask her if it's a 'pain' headache, or a hazy, disconnected feeling. And you could save yourself some legwork by simply assuming that the school food is chock full of additives. There are so many sources of the stuff now that I DO assume there are additives, until I've checked the labels. I know many people are going to read this and write it off. If any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone, PLEASE take the time and check things out. You could end up saving a life, literally. And maybe even your own. I think my microwave burrito is done... |

That's gotta be rough, I wish I could be of more help.
First-world medicine is a joke Luc, there is no incentive to cure anything or anyone. If you're cured, they're out of work. Many times people leave a "modern" hospital in worse shape than when they arrived. I'm happy to report being in relatively good health despite NOT being to a doctor in well over 15 years. If I had gone to the doctor about some of the food ailments I'd had, well.. who knows. Modern med is all about patching you up and getting you out the door. Seldom is the root cause ever addressed. So I would definitely look elsewhere for advice, sounds like a good idea to ask your own family. I have no predispositions about thirdworld medicine, in fact it seems to me in most other countries they actually want to see people improve. Imagine that.... Best wishes man! |
Redshift- quite often the doctors are not taught to find the root of a problem they are only taught patch ups. But doctors still give off the idea that they know what they are doing because people go to them thinking ' he's the doctor, he can fix me'.
In the 16th century, when witch hunts were all the rage, it was the doctors who invented the concept of the witch because they would cop the rap from the family of the deceased. Just as a matter of interest, it was nearly all caused by a mold that grew in the wheat in humid summers and then spread through the town by the baker. The doctor didn't know and couldn't explain it so to save his own hide said 'there's nothing i can do. It must be witchcraft.' Barr the witch hunts, not much has changed. |
Does panda know how the witches and broomsticks myth began? Hehe it's bizarre.
I don't blame individuals for the way the system is, I know 99% of them go to work and want to do some good. The problem is that few of them seem to see outside their education "box". They perform like robots almost, because there is no room for them to think or second guess any command that is handed down. In that manner the medical industry is a lot like the military. Many people can't hack it (pun intended) and change careers after lots of disappointment, years of school and essentially wasted knowledge. The real problem arose, I think, when people started being viewed as a commodity, and not a human. You are a product to be repaired. Again, this is not pointing fingers at the individuals, but the system itself. That seems to be around the same time the doctors started receiving hefty kickbacks for basically being a white-coat drug dealer. I happen to have a passionate hatred for the Pharma industry, that might show. The doctors now are more likely to hand you a script, without so much as checking your pulse. "Is the patient breathing?" "No" "Well shove these down his throat and have him call me in the morning" |
I got that myth from the most trusted of all media.. the TV. The mold is called ergot and gives the sensation of an acid trip and at the same time shrinks the veins and starves the body of blood/oxygen.
I agree with you completely about the medical industry, it's not the individuals. The head of nearly all researchers is on the payroll of the pharmicutical (spelling?) giants. When they get close to a cure they direct the research to another area. I can't back this one up. My mother has cancer and has read all about it, so I could reference you some books at a later date. I have also come across individuals who refuse to look outside there assigned box. I had a skin specialist tell me that my daughter and I had a behavioural problem (eg shorter bath times) and that's why she had eczema. That made my blood boil. I could have snotted that c:bad:nt right there and then. I am convinced it is diet related but anyone i talk to says 'no, it makes no difference'. Which comes back to the thread title- EAT LIKE A BRASILIAN |
"The mold is called ergot and gives the sensation of an acid trip and at the same time shrinks the veins and starves the body of blood/oxygen."
Yeah but you left the good part out... they'd rub the mold on different objects, broom handles and such, where it could be rubbed on the more 'sensitive' tissue and absorbed more easily. And those crazy ol witches would indeed fly.... Which comes back to the thread title- EAT LIKE A BRASILIAN Hehe when I read that I can't help but play "Walk Like An Egyptian" in my head, mussbe all that ergot... "I agree with you completely about the medical industry, it's not the individuals. The head of nearly all researchers is on the payroll of the pharmicutical (spelling?) giants.

No need for proof, you can give to cancer research all your money, there will not be a cure. It makes me sick the way these foundations play us off. "We're getting closer, really" MY ASS. Cures have been known for at least 70 years, and suppressed. If anyone thinks I'm making baseless claims and spewing crap, take 15 minutes and look into it. That's my little disclaimer... It's interesting to get an Aussie point of view, there are amazing similarities it sounds like. Probably all bad lol. Sorry to hear about your mother, I hope there is a good outcome. |
My wife is italian/Rican by decent, but spent her life in Peru and Mexico (deep darkest by paddington bear) She gets migrains after foods here, generally liptonez <~ cup a soups, and Krafter <~ mac & cheese...names alterered so I dont get sued lol.. She is interested in your finding or contributing Lutach, PM for her email.

There are a few different cures but they work with differing affectiveness on different people. Blended flax seed oil and cottage cheese is the simplest method my mother tried but even then she didn't know if you stop the proceedure at any time and then take it up again it loses it's affect to attack cancer.
There does'nt seem to be any hard and fast rules/cures/fix ups. A lot of people understand disease is in the mind and that is why some cures work and some don't. The idea of eating like a Brasilian not only improves health for the body but to a much lesser degree promotes healthy mind. Making your own food. For example- Noob goes and buy's a new rc, doesn't know or understand how it works so when he crashes it gives up the game- quitter Redshift (coincidence!) builds himself a custom ride so understands everthing (almost) so if/when it brakes he can assess the situation and make better judgement- Thinker Of course, that is very simplified and everyone is in there own unique situation. |
