Guest guest Posted March 6, 2002 Report Share Posted March 6, 2002 I have been reading Henry Bieler's " Food is your best medicine " -- often referred to in NT. After describing the benefits of a raw milk cure, he says that people with a weak liver however should not drink milk, even raw milk. However, he does suggest giving these people curds. This reminds me that a milk product called 'quark' in German is supposed to be good for the liver. It is compressed milk curds. He also suggests--for people whose liver and gall bladder are producing toxic juices (he calls it something like that), that they should take yeast, preferably yeast used to make bread. Stir it into water and be sure not to eat any starch with it or afterwards, as it will otherwise ferment and produce alcohol in the intestine. On an empty stomach, not followed with starch, he says that it changes the climate of the intestine, neutralizing the distructive liver and bile juices. Thought that was interesting. He also, by the way, says that raw meat is the most healthful, though he does not insist that his patients eat it raw; very rare will also do. son drmichaelmarasco schrieb: > > Aubin, > More often than not I find that the vast majority of these people > fall into one of three categories.

I've only rarely seen quark here in the States, and I've never tried it, so I don't know how authentic it is, but when I was a kid, I lived in Germany for a little while and learned about one of their simple bachelor-food type dishes -- a boiled potato fresh out of the pot topped with a heaping mound of quark, drizzled with flax oil (called linseed oil there) and heavily dusted with paprika. One brand of quark there had some flavored varieties, and that dish made with pepper quark remains one of my all-time favorite foods. Unfortunately I can't eat potatoes (I'm hypoglycemic when I don't eat right, and potatoes push me off the charts) and I remain very skeptical about flax oil, so I haven't eaten it since I was a little kid in Germany, but if those two things don't bother you and you can find some quark, go for it! Delicious! (Hawthorne Valley Farm, a biodynamic outfit in NY listed on realmilk.com, makes quark. I don't know whether they ship and I haven't tried it, but it might be worth a try.) One note, though: AFAIK quark is a fresh cheese, like mozarella, so it's probably off the table for lactose-intolerant people and those with gut problems, at least until they get healthy and can handle fresh raw milk. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having not read his book yet but only heard others' comments, I got an impression that Bieler was against eating animal protein. Silly me! He wouldn't have been mentioned in NT if that had been the case.

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2002 Report Share Posted March 7, 2002 Oh yes, very rare works very well indeed. Of course, your friends and family will still think its raw :-) On Wed, 06 Mar 2002 21:05:57 +0100 son <hjacobson@...> writes: He also, by the way, says that raw meat is the most healthful, though he does not insist that his patients eat it raw; very rare will also do. son Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
