Before I launch into my WAP story, I would like to know how you avoid

all suppliments; it is my dream to only take hi butter/CLO too but

can't afford to order the right meats etc.

MY WAP STORY

=============================================

I've always liked listening to a health program on a public radio

station here in the Bay Area of California (94.1)

Tuesdays 1:00 is " Your Own Health and Fitness "

(yourownhealthandfitness.com)with health practitioner Layna Berman. I

listen while I go from building to building in my interior plant

watering job.

In y2K I was diagnosed with breast cancer and went through chemo. After

listening to a show about hormones and how they are affected by

estrogen replacement therapy I contacted Layna. She had me take saliva

tests through ZRT Labs and read the reports to see where I was

unbalanced. She had me use tiny amounts of bio-identical estriol and

Progestin.

Meanwhile, I was to read Dr. Lee's " What Your Doctor May Not Have Told

You About Breast Cancer " and Dr. Atkins diet book. Atkins was to be

read from cover to cover which most people don't do so don't get the

concept. Atkins was not about stuffing yourself with meat but was about

getting off carbs by eating fats and meats which curb that craving.

Once the cravings were gone you were to slowly reintroduce carbs until

you came up to a balanced diet. If you fell off the wagon you could go

back on fats (more than meats) to get a handle then bring back the

carbs.

Best of all, she had Sally Fallon as a guest and Sally talked about

" Empty Calories " . I bought the tape and listened over and over. Signed

up for the " Wise Traditions " newsletter. Fascinating. Bought the

cookbook " Nourishing Traditions " and began to follow the precepts

outlined.

Bought every tape available from the next WAP conference for $200 and

listened over and over again. Have listened to her 6 tape " Traditional

Diets " hundreds of times. Wish more than anything I could get the whole

set of every conference since then. I am interested in the soil science

of it all and have joined the Brix Talk group even though I live in a

cottage with no grounds of my own; just dream of owning acreage one day

when my paintings start to sell.

I soak grains and make my own sourdough. I travel 26 miles to get

pastured eggs plus one chicken with head and feet to make broth. I make

kefir and beet kvass, eat raw butter. I eat raw liver once a week from

Whole Foods which only carries grass fed but not grass finished beef

liver. Would dearly love to order organs/meats/bones from

http://www.northstarbison.com/

Have put out a query to the Brix Talk group to see if that's the one

which has the high brix pasture.

I take hi vit butter oil and CLO, CQ10, Iodine with it's suppliment

regimen.

WISH I could eat more grass fed beef, make more kefir and order Organic

Pasture's raw cheese made at the proper temperature. Want colostrum

kefir on a regular basis.

Highly recommend iodine.

Would like to hear more " How I found WAP " stories.
