Whatever helps is good, but our condition is from inhalation exposure, it's

important to remember that even people that were priorly very health, ate right

their whole life, ect end up ill from WDB exposures.

people that may not of had severe damage through the nasal route and lungs may

have better luck with diet protocals makeing them well.

diet is not going to really help with lung and nasal route conditions

so advoidance is very important. and alot of people just dont realize how big of

a role that the brain plays in how we fell and function.

fire response without hesitation was doing the Macrobiotic diet. She also

said that she does not believe that she ever would have gotten well without

it. So much so that she wrote her book " Macro Mellow " , which combined with one

of her other books " No More Heartburn " are still in my top 10 most often

referenced book resources. These two books in particular, continue to be of

great assistance with the ongoing most challening aspect on my path to wellness,

introduced to a toxic body exposed to a lifetime of poor diet, environmental

toxins and on again off again antibiotics.

I'm glad you were helped by this diet Kathy. It's opposite of what most of us

follow though as most of us follow a diet of avoiding grains which according to

the food pyramid for macroboitics is the food they recommend we eat the most of.

We avoid for reasons that grain is usually stored in such a way that it is very

contaminated w mold and also gives one a high carb diet which usually isn't good

for mold injured people, but having said that if it worked for you then it

suited your particular needs.

I'm most interested in his statement to cover computer screen. Do you do this.

It is stated here:

" protect yourself from harmful electromagnetic fields with a protective shield

over your computer screen and other safety devices " . Is that needed for todays

new types of screen do you know? Does anyone do this?

Interesting that you doc is Sherry . I don't think we have any of her

patients here. I have one of her books.

i think that there are many things that the macrobiotic diet offers that are

good for people in general. for example their philosophy of eating locally grown

organic produce that is not processed as well as eating according to the seasons

and their recommendations for different cooking methods. also the fact that sea

vegetables is included in the daily diet is great for us moldies.

however, for a person who has candida a diet of 40-60% grains, although whole,

will probably not be the best choice.

also, even if you don't have candida, there are many people who won't do well on

a macrobiotic diet. speaking in really general terms, the diet that works best

for you as an individual will depend greatly on where you live, because your

body will adapt to your environment as well as what types of foods that your

ancestors were accustomed to processing. therefore, a macrobiotic diet will

often be better processed by asian people, rather than for example northern

european people. again, i'm grossly generalizing, but the point being is that

our bodies will be geared to better process certain foods than others.

Hi Barb-

During recent research for my new laptop, current claims assert that

LED/LCD/Plasma monitors and screens emit little to no EMF's. However, there

seems to be some conflicting dispute about this. But at least there is little

dispute behind the overwhelming scientific evidence to substantiate claims

for milligauss emissions with the older style VDT/CRT computer monitors and

tv's.

That said, this might lead one to believe that the concern for EMF's should be

greatly reduced with new monitor technology. But once again for me, it

always comes down to personal tolerance testing as I am just now in the process

of setting up/using my new LED laptop that is replacing my 10 year old CRT

desktop.

With the old computer, I never used the computer boxes/shielding screens

but instead chose to try various tolerated diverters/grounding devices until

finding one that seemed to reduce my reactions to some degree. I often wonder

which got to me more....the CRT or the hard drive. But in spite of such

measures, I was only able to spend pocketed periods of time on the old

computer. Not the case at all with this new laptop and I don't even have a

grounding device attached to it. For example today I have been on the laptop

for around 8 continuous hours, which I could never do on the old computer. Am

cautiously super excited and only time will tell how I do with it long term.

Kathy
