Japapeno milk - O.T.

[Guest guest]

Hi there, I was looking at your statement on this matter:

 

> This is a recipe to have when you have a cold or flu. You NEED to milk to

protect your

mucuous membranes. [emphasis mine]

 

I'm looking at the word 'need' used in conjunction with milk. There are some of

course

who would quite definitely disagree :-) And for some, it would definitely be a

no-no for

health reasons - not to mention the ethical reasons others may have. There is

considerable evidence that milk is *not* needed by or beneficial to adults. That

will always,

of course, be a personal choice.

 

Checking your questionnaire I am interested to see that you teach yoga, as do

some other

members of this list ;-) I suppose this is why you use 'Guru Khalsa' in your

name? You

have also told us you believe in Ayurvedic practices for health and nutrition.

Do you also

have medical qualifications to support your health tips?

 

I am asking this in response to off list mail . . .

 

Best, Pat

Pat,

 

I am not a Guru. My name si GuruBandhu whic h means servanht of the Guru.

It is not a title=. Thsi isa na aancient yogic recipe. I am just the

messenger. In yoga, ayurveda and life we are looking for balance. If one just

takes all those jalepenos without milk o r any other buffering substance then

it burns the mucuous membranes. If someone doesn't want to ttake this with milk

then they don't have to. I do have a friend who is an Ayurvedic doctor and I

will ask him for a more " authoritative " answer. Sorry if I offended anyone but

you asked for pepper recipes and I sent you one.

I see! :-) Then I'm glad I asked - it's so easy for those of us not in the know

to make errors

over this kind of thing. Apologies. So what DO we call you? I see on another

list you are

always called Guru - which is why I asked, in part.

 

>Thsi isa na aancient yogic recipe. I am just the messenger. In yoga, ayurveda

I understand that there is that philosophy.

 

> If one just takes all those jalepenos without milk o r any other

I'd say!!! Oh I quite understand why one would want jalapenos with another

substance if

one has inflammation of the mucous membranes.

 

> I do have a friend who is an Ayurvedic doctor and I will ask him for a more

No need at all - this is not a health list and we are already quite a bit off

topic here :-) I

was just asking, since I had been asked privately, about your qualificatiions.

As for the

philosophical/spiritual/religious theories behind your way of life, I have to

say that we

don't discuss those on this list - there are other places to do that, of course,

but it does

tend to cause problems when discussed on a recipe list. And this is the reason

why I am

not inquiring further, as interesting as I am sure it would be.

 

>Sorry if I offended anyone but you asked for pepper recipes and I

You offended no one that I know of - but have puzzled some. No problem - makes

you

interesting, eh? LOL And thanks for the recipes sent!

 

And now that's all cleared up, I hope, and everyone's happy ;-) Thanks for your

patience.

I'll look forward to seeing more of you on the list.

 

Best love, Pat
