Guest guest Posted January 23, 2002 Report Share Posted January 23, 2002 That should give us a lot of confidence in the scientists then How many other drugs have not been tested enough ? Money can be saved by less testing and the drug will get on the market quicker I've always thought that it would be best to wait say 10 years before trying a " new " drug to see how many people it kills /injures before trying it oneself !!!!

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2002 Report Share Posted February 1, 2002 BJ, here's another one: Rosemary Potatoes Slice and dice the potatoes and fry them up in a skillet like you normally would. Right after you put the potatoes in the skillet, sprinkle some rosemary on the potatoes. Right before the potatoes are done and soft, squirt some ketchup in the skillet, and mix it all up, (I usually do 2-3 squirts of ketchup). It's a unique recipe that has all kinds of flavors in it and can be adjusted depending on how strong you want it. Carolyn , rgrannypat@a... wrote: > My niece is visiting and she is a potato-holic.

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2002 Report Share Posted March 27, 2002 was this to me? can't tell. Well, I am a female, christian, and toaist as well. Im not down an lesbians (two my best freins in the whole world are lesbians) im not down on gays (my very good male freind is gay and pagan). Im not down on any one.......I just think that we should all accept the diversity that comes with being vegan. I was attacked for being a christain, now thats just not fair, nor would it be fair to attack you for being gay. I totally agree with you that the bible is full of contradictions. I never even pretended to understand it. That doesn't change the fact that I believe in God tho. And dont any of you go slamming me for being a taoist as well as a christian- it is possible- millions over do it... As far as the advice- I really don't need it. Im not the one preaching hate in here. And as far as invading the board- I thought this was an open place for discussion on veganism...I was not aware that christains were not allowed...perhaps the mission statement should change.... nedina Everything you'll ever need on one web page from News and Sport to Email and Music Charts http://uk.my.

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2002 Report Share Posted March 27, 2002 you can be a Shinto Christian ... or a Shinto Buddhist in Japan ... and Taoism is not far from Shinto ... across the Japan Sea... the Roman Catholics don't mind people practicing Shinto in Japan... Shinto and Tao is the way ... it is not a real religion and so it can coexist with other more orthodox religions... i would have said i'm close to being a taoist pagan shinto shaman techno-hippy with short hair ... but i am not anymore... or rather i wouldn't say that anymore...

Guest guest Posted May 14, 2002 Report Share Posted May 14, 2002 Amy, What a bummer! Sorry to hear about the test results. There still seems to be a lot of things he could eat without having to add any animal products back in. Instead of rice can he eat millet, quinoa and buckwheat? There are tons of other fruits and veggies that aren't on that list. Also how about a little soy, I don't remember if that was on the list. Take care, Tracy <A HREF= " http://www.myhomemakersidea.com/tf8819 " >Clutter Free!</A> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 14, 2002 Report Share Posted May 14, 2002 Yep Soy was on there too.. yes, I know all the alternavtive grains.. but they did not test for any of those. My fear is.. that anything he has been eating regularly, he will show an allergie too.. because his system is under attack. I am putting him on foods that he never eats.. things his system will not attack.. that is why the animal products.. they all came out negative..so safe for him to eat. But thank you for your letter, it was nice. Amy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 14, 2002 Report Share Posted May 14, 2002 Amy I respectfully suggest that you take a look at the Specific Carbohydrate diet and try to match it with those things he can eat and those you prefer he eat (ie no meats or dairy). I had to give up and allow Alex to have animal proteins but because he is allergic to dairy we have found that he can only tolerate yoghurt and that needs to be the fatted kind, not the reduced fat. Before the invention of scopes and laprascopic biopsies, the theory was advanced that Celiac's were reactive to all kinds of carbs and grains not just wheat related glutens. I had to place Kierstin and Alex on a modification of this diet as well. Kierstin suffered for month after month with stomach cramps and bloating and she wasn't getting any gluten. The ped ran tests and found nothing so he kept telling us she was constipated and an ultrasound did reveal a small impaction but she still had cramps after that was cleared. I know it isn't vegan, but it was suggested to us, and it may work for you as well if you choose it, to use pediasure for a while until his stomach has a chance to heal. Be warned that this does contain dairy and is guaranteed to induce loose stools but does provide nutrients and calories while the stomach heals. Even the adult varities are good but watch for those sweetened with artifical sweeteners and sugar alcohols. I think they taste better if they are chilled and shaken lots to make them frothy. I suppose you can make the same thing with the use of nutmilks or millet milk and some nutrients and fruit but the fruit may be harder for his stomach to digest. I truly know how you feel and it can be overwhelming at first and we hope that the results aren't reliable BUT, as you already know, the best thing is to move forward as if they are fully reliable. Prayer always makes a big difference. There are also some herbs and supports to help the stomach heal. If you don't have any, try some slippery elm in either capsules or powder. Slippery Elm helps to re-establish the mucousal lining of the stomach and it may be damage to the mucousal lining which is causing his body to reject so much of his food.

Guest guest Posted May 14, 2002 Report Share Posted May 14, 2002 Dear BL, THANK YOU for the advice of the slippery elms.. I will use that!!! I have felt very overwhelmed by this.. and have added some things back, but I am hoping it will only be until I can come up with some other foods.. and I will slowly weed out the animal products again. I am also wondering if there might also be a build up of yeast in his system which will cause an overload of allergies in your system. Amy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 14, 2002 Report Share Posted May 14, 2002 Candida could be part of the problem as well Amy. The yoghurt may be able to help there too if it is a mild case, but I would still use only plain fatted yoghurt and add something that he likes at home instead of getting the flavoured stuff which is loaded with sugars and wonderful food for the little intestinal critters - quite defeating the purpose - LOL. It probably wouldn't hurt to up his probiotics if he isn't taking any. If you use nutritional yeast or brewer's yeast in cooking or dietary supplementation you might want to stop for awhile - at least with his food. I suppose the truth is that even if he only lives on nuts and grains for alittle while it is only for a season until you can figure things out better. He won't be happy with the restrictions and will rail but better than a sore stomach. BTW, did the doctor have an abdomincal x-ray or ultrasound to check for impaction?

Guest guest Posted July 9, 2002 Report Share Posted July 9, 2002 At 12:49 PM 7/9/02 -0500, Candace asked for vegetarian Mediterranean recipes... I do a lot of Mediterranean stuff, as it's a naturally vegetarian cuisine. No changes are needed for most recipes! And a lot of it works well for picnics and potlucks--easily carried and served, and can go without refrigeration for some time. A typical mezze might look like this: Grape leaves (my version is rice and chickpeas w/ lemon, garlic and mint) Spanikopita (Phyllo stuffed with spinach and feta) [1] Small felafel (mashed chickpeas and spices--many fry, but I do it on the griddle) Grilled marinated vegetables Tabbouleh (bulgur, veggies and parsley in a minty-lemony vinagrette) [2] or fatoush (much the same, but simpler--no bulgur usually...) Green salad Lentil salad Hummus (pureed chickpeas and sesame seed paste) [3] Baba ganouj (pureed eggplant and sesame seed paste) Tzatziki sauce (yogurt, cucumber and garlic) [4] Pita And dessert can be fruits and sweetened yogurt, or traditional pastries if you're feeling ambitious or have a good Mediterranean grocer in town. 1: http://home.houston.rr.com/carpman/span.html 2: http://carpmank.tripod.com/salad.html#Tab 3: http://home.houston.rr.com/carpman/hummus.html 4: http://home.houston.rr.com/carpman/tzatziki.html I can give recipes for others if you like.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2003 Report Share Posted January 18, 2003 Hmmm.. you should always add carrots first from your mirapois anyways, so dont worry about it:) Im assuming by the 6c broth you are making a thick stew, if it's gonna cook a long time that will be absorbed and reduce some. As for spices, I do't know how exotic you like it, so you could go with a tried and true staple: 3-4 big bay leaves basil thyme oregano some chili flakes salt pepper (take or leave what you do or dont like) If you want to get experimental, tryadding some curry, a little bit at a time, every few mnutes then tasting, just until it gives a slight hint to the soup. Curries are different but fun when you lose your fear of them. Conversely, if you hadnt added the broth (or it evaporates) you have got a great recipe for some nice chili there, just add diced tomatoes, a little tomato paste, some tomato sauce, some chili powder etc and your laughing... dont forget the red kidney beans though:: --- dawn pattison-rak <skgpeace wrote: > > > I was all motivated this morning and got out the > slow cooker and in > it I put: > > some TVP Chunks > 1/2 onion > some garlic, minced > ~6 c. veggie broth > 2 sm. potatoes, diced > 1 rib celery > some barley > some fresh, steamed peas (leftovers) > some fresh green beans > some grape tomatoes > > > Now I am lost!!!
