Guest guest Posted November 11, 1999 Report Share Posted November 11, 1999 thanks--but you have told me what you know--show me where I can find the info. Historically, people for thousands of years have lived, quite nicely, I might add, on diets with nuts, cheeses, molds, etc. Stomach acid is quite corrosive by itself, but we need it in moderation to digest our foods. My daughter was bulemic for years and the stomach acid literally ate away her teeth--but our digestive systems survive it, literally need it to do the job. I realize that isolates can come from many foods that in small portions might not be harmful but in concentrated forms are very toxic. I just want to be sure the evidence is accurate before we condemn the food. Have any studies been done on the poor nut to prove that the levels of this aflatoxin are in fact harmful? Homeopathic cures acutally use many toxic substances in minute amounts " the hair of the dog that bit you " philosophy. Again, in moderation. Ascorbic acid is very corrosive in a certain state, but it is found liberally in so many vitamin C supplements. Same with citric acid. And don't forget penicillin is a mold. >From: " Luiz Moreira " <gingerjoe@...> >Reply-candidiasisonelist ><candidiasisonelist> >Subject: Peanuts and Aflatoxin >Date: Wed, 3 Nov 1999 23:44:41 -0200 > > wrote : > " >I still wouldlike to know where I can find information on this.does anyone >know where?
