Until yesterday, I've been fueling my walk with veg juice. Yesterday, I experimented with parfait first. Today, too. Both days, I've been happy with the results. It makes sense to open up cell membranes before fueling with veg nutrients.

Yesterday, no walk, but several hours of yard work, mostly pulling weeds. No rebound pain! Despite 90 degree weather, I managed to do everything I planned without having to fight sleep.
Today: .92 mi trail-123-42-125-trail, one of the steepest hills in Seattle. 79 degrees, but there was enough shade on the upside and on the trail. 1.8mi. 107-Durland-110-Exeter-113-112-trail-123rd-Porta-potty-123rd Home/Lakeside
Walks: 2 days ago: 2 mi, Bartlet, 123rd, trail, Lakeside. Yesterday, .9 mi. 123rd-125th trail loop. Today, I put too much pepper in my veg juice, which inspired me to come home after only ½ mi… ( I think…..phone battery was low so the walk meter didn't work.)
Sleeping well at night, though usually I'm better in the morning if I've slept in semi-fowlers position. 8-10 hours Slowly, somnolence has been increasing, again occurring after meals, again. Fighting it is no longer of any use. I took a nux muschata 200c last Saturday. So far, I don't see improvement. Will repeat this Saturday. In the meantime, since the sleep demand is always accompanied by a stuffy nose, I'm dosing with Histaminum 20c PRN. It doesn't wake me up, but it may be helping me not sleep my life away each time. The one good thing is that I can usually waken, refreshed after +/- 30 min.
Day before yesterday, 2.6 mi. -107th-Durland-2-5th-48th-103rd-48th-95th-trail-112th-lakeside-107th-Exeter-Home.
Yesterday: .5 mi. Legs jerky, back hurt, subclinical migraine. Today, 2.2 mi. 107th-Bartlet-123rd-trail-112th-Lakeside-Home. Lots of stops, 15-30 sec. Today, a 10 min conversation and a port potty break on Riviera after mi 1. 1 hr 11min. Home, 107th, Durland, 48th, 103rd, trail, Mathews Beach, back circle 49th, 97th, trail, home up Exeter. No mileage noted. Phone charging. Feeling great. Frustrated that I can't figure out how to find or reference Food Network's 10 top cancer fighting foods for this blog.
1.7mi. Hill as far as I could see shade: trail -up and back on 123rd. Rocky start on level ground. For some reason, starting with a hill is always easier. But today, the sun was shining hot by 9:00 by the time I could be on my way.
I've been wanting to share about Budwig at Toastmasters. Last evening, I gave a 15 minute talk, just the rudimentary info. Told my story in brief, then encouraged clean, non-processed, organic diet. I passed out Sandra Olson's version of the protocol with credit to her as transcriber. She had sent it to me in the mail, so I took that as permission.
I did also have for visual enjoyment a crystal parfait dish layered with the fruit and cottage cheese/oil mixture. In order to conserve flax oil and also to have an edible product after the demo, I used olive oil instead of flax oil. It looked just as good. Now the contents are sitting in the fridge ready to be used as ingredients of dressing for today's salad. My goal was to introduce Budwig without encouraging the wrong order. I've realized that I was ready for the parfait (my new word for it) b/c I had already gone to a vegetarian diet of organic foods and I already had the equipment for juicing and grinding flax seeds. All I needed was the hand blender and food ingredients. I now understand that it could actually be dangerous for a person to start with the parfait before cleaning up their diet, since eating or smoking toxins while improving cellular permeability could increase the toxic load of the cells. I meant to introduce the benefits of flax seed by itself, but my printer had failed to print more than one copy, which I gave to a member. I will post that on the NN Facebook page. Some wanted info on homeopathic mag-phos, so I'll provide that info, too. I'm considering doing another talk during which I introduce the known benefits of various fruits and vegetables along with my understanding of angiogenesis as related to cancer and the preventative role that some fruits and vegetables can play. Since my life is pretty full, I may wait to give that talk. Although that would complement the Budwig info, it would have to be a stand alone talk. |
