Guest guest Posted August 2, 2002 Report Share Posted August 2, 2002 Someone on here said they love hearing success stories with NT/WAPF type diets. Well, here is one minor one. When I have more time, I will write up how I inadvertently cured myself of a long-held multi-faceted anxiety/panic/phobia disorder with this diet. But that will be on the long side. In any case, here's a tidbit-- I got very lucky the first time I made chicken stock, a couple months ago, that I happened to get sick right that day. Every time I had chicken soup, I actually felt a little better. But what really kicked my cold was that chicken-coconut soup in a mug from NT! I had a bad sore throat that pretty much disappeared upon drinking a mug of it. Before my first mug, I felt very tired and apathetic; after the mug, I felt like going out and exercising or doing something fun! My experience with cold remedies is generally one of two things: drugs work well, but only for a period, then keep you sick longer as they only hit the symptoms, or 2) natural remedies work and don't have side effects, but often work in barely perceptible amounts or at least not as well as drugs. But this stuff brought me to a plateau each time I drank it. I got a significant amount unambiguously better each time, without reverting backwards. AND, the amount it made me feel better was more on the scale of a drug than a natural remedy. Chicken-coconut soup seems like a well-kept secret that if anyone tried when they were sick it would motivate them to start making bone stocks. Peace, Chris ____ " What can one say of a soul, of a heart, filled with compassion? It is a heart which burns with love for every creature: for human beings, birds, and animals, for serpents and for demons. The thought of them and the sight of them make the tears of the saint flow. And this immense and intense compassion, which flows from the heart of the saints, makes them unable to bear the sight of the smallest, most insignificant wound in any creature. Thus they pray ceaselessly, with tears, even for animals, for enemies of the truth, and for those who do them wrong.

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2002 Report Share Posted August 2, 2002 hi, chris-- isn't that soup wonderful? it's like " mystic soup " <g>. i sigh after every sip because i feel as though i were being transported to paradise. on a more serious note: < When I have more time, I will write up how I inadvertently cured myself of a long-held multi-faceted anxiety/panic/phobia disorder with this diet> here i have to sigh in frustration. i have been banging my head against the wall trying to get my father to let me try to heal precisely that problem in my mother using this diet. the problem is that my mother will only eat what my father eats, and, since my father thinks that he is doing " just fine " with Cheerios every single day.... allene in nc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
