- Hoodia cactus revisited4 y
- hoodia works!
Hoodia cactus does indeed work. I gave my sister my bottle to try it and my snacking has gone up substantially so I’ll be buying another bottle very soon. HiTech’s brand was discontinued from bodybuilding.com so I’ll pick something else out. I advise to stay away from anything with caffeine and other additives. Stick with the pure hoodia cactus. Also, ethically sourced stuff is really important to some people. Most of the time it is to me. I couldn’t find out whether the hoodia was ethically sourced but there are other companies who have pure hoodia products.
Can’t wait till I can get m ... read more
- Return of Trial and Error! The Hoodia Cactus edition4 y
- hoodia hello!!!!
http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/ht/hood.html
I bought this for $23 on bb.com. The first two days I’ve taken it on an empty stomach with my morning coffee for morning cardio. Each time I’ve not eaten till around 1pm. The morning cardio session was at 9am each time. Usually I get hungry around 11 am.
I’ve tried at work twice now and it does seem to cut down on the snacking. When I do get hungry, it’s true hunger and then I must eat otherwise I get bad gas.
I did some research as there is SO much hoodia scammers out there. Right now Hi Tech Pharma seems to be one of the best. I w ... read more

Gabriel facial care products...I’m now using a new facial system. I also bought this from Whole Foods.
** This system absolutely works. I highly recommend it. The investment is worth it. The product really stretches out. The one that runs out first is the toner of course.
I’m reading Greens for Life by Victoria Boutenko
** I’ve read the book. I disagree with basing a whole way of eating on the diet of chimps. Other than that minor thing, I enjoyed the book very much. I would recommend it to anyone. We all need more greens.
I bought a Kitchen Aid Blender

Thumbs up to Nature’s Gate Acne pack. My face looks great and has no acne.

This makeup is the makeup I’ve chosen to wear for my wedding. It looks great on camera. It’s not a toxic poison chemical sewer of cosmetic chemicals.

Melatonin 1mg per day is ideal for me. 3mg has me tired the next day unless I work out and then oddly enough it’s great.
I have a BIG shame on you alert. Celestial Seasonings!! Shame shame shame for adding milk and soy lecithin to a DETOX tea of all things. I wrote them a letter expressing my dismay.

- Starbucks scones: BIG ERROR!7 y
- the horror caloric content of scones
Wow I just found out that the scones I love have FIVE HUNDRED CALORIES!!!!! Omigod...that’s terrible. The banana nut loaf I ate yesterday had 360. I eat a scone every day almost. That’s an extra 3500 if I include the snacks I eat. I exercise and the exercise is keeping my weight stable but I’m not losing weight. I’ve been feeling fat and disgusting all weekend. I know it’s mostly mental because I’ve measured myself and I’m the same measurements.
so no more scones...which is good because I’m likely to drink less coffee. visit the page
- Day one: Raw bodybuilding7 y
- trial of the Raw Vegan Bodybuilding Diet
I weighed myself this morning and I’m 157. It was a bit depressing because when I fasted, I got down to 147. Plus I was doing bikram yoga. Intellectually I know that it was mostly water weight, it still is a little depressing. I had hit some very important personal milestones while fasting. Such as being at a lower weight when I met my so called ’ex’ and also being close to the same weight I was in the Air Force. The minute I turned fasting into a weight loss tool, the minute I got entranced by the weight I was losing, I went off the rails. SO...I’m fogetting fasting. I can’t take the weig ... read more
- Bodybuilding on an unprocessed food plan7 y

I have a one day food plan prepared according to the precepts of the Hallelujah Diet. I am a devotee of the raw foodists Storm and Jinjee BUT I’m including a Vitamin Shoppe soy phytonutrient protein powder in this part of the program. My concern is divided between losing inches for my first wedding dress fitting and improving my health. If I was the type of person that returns opened items, I would but I think I’ll just use what I have while I develop nutmilk substitutes.
I am using:
Vitamin Shoppe brand soy protein powder

- wheatgrass wars..the saga continues7 y
- wheatgrass trial and error...more error than trial ;-)
I am going to purchase the frozen wheatgrass because right now my growing attempts have been lame at best. I am not giving it my all the way I am giving it to my kombucha tea so I’m going to experiment with the frozen grass. It was Lapis or someone else that talked about growing grass under lamps. When I move to my new home, I’m going to set up something outdoors using square foot gardening. Also, I noticed that WFM sells Sproutman wheatgrass trays for fifteen dollars. I’m going to buy one BECAUSE it’s cost me that much to try to grow two trays and I’m not wasting my money. Next week I hav ... read more
- melatonin: product review and sleep wars7 y
- a good night sleep or else!
I bought a bottle of Vitamin Shoppe brand melatonin 1mg dose. I find that 1mg is all I need to help rev up the engine of my sleepy time train. The first night I took it I was already tired from running around with my fiance. He took 3mg and it was LIGHTS OUT for him. I also took my dog for a long nighttime walk. Sophie is a big hindrance to my goal of a good night’s sleep.
What’s melatonin?

- New blog name7 y
- new blog beginnings
I named this blog ’Wheatgrass Research Blog’ because of my keen interest in wheatgrass and barley grass. I also brew kombucha tea and don’t want to start yet another blog on that. I’m using apple cider vinegar too. I am going to post quite regularly about these things, using it as my KT brewing journal,etc. Whatever works and what doesn’t, product reviews,etc. Finally, I’m going to use this blog as the clearinghouse for all my before and after pictures. I have plenty, including the ones from my first fast, my laser hair removal treatments,etc. Hope you all enjoy the new format. visit the page
- Wheatgrass research or marketing??7 y
- early morning wheatgrass musings
I find that most of what is on the internet isn’t serious science but marketing babble. I decided to do a pubmed search for wheatgrass and found some interesting extracts!
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?CMD=search&DB=pubmed
Meanwhile, I am now sprouting my seeds and also growing my trays in my room. It has a significant portion of sun everyday now and the air is drier. I’m getting a spray bottle to spray water with a mineral mix onto the soil instead of the pour sprinkle method (encourages mold). I can’t afford ocean grown solution (yet) but at some point in the future ... read more
- Rejuvelac experiment7 y

http://www.hishealingways.com/rejuvelac/makerejuvelac.html
I’m trying this recipe with some wheatgrass seeds I bought at Whole Foods. I’m going to use the mail order seeds that I have for growing as they contain less floaters and are organic. I’m not sure if the ones at WFM are organic but I suppose I could ask.
I left my wheatgrass in the car overnight and it seemed a little frozen so I’m drinking it. I’m going to use it as a footsoak. Right now, I’m fasting on lemonade and kombucha tea but I do want to do a wheatgrass enema.

There’s more good to be had from grass than the ”pleasure” of sowing, mowing, and showing it.
THE WONDER OF WHEATGRASS
Kelsey Clark
Staff PhotoHave you ever watched cattle or horses grazing and wondered how such large, strong, and downright magnificent creatures sustain themselves on a diet that’s primarily composed of grass? Well, I have, and the notion never ceased to amaze me . . . that is, until I did some research and found out just how much food value chlorophyll-rich grasses ... read more

Here are some testimonials about using Ocean Grown solution. I first heard about it from David Wolfe. I am going to use this in growing my wheatgrass. My latest tray is being harvested now and I don’t have nearly as much mold as the last one. I used half the amount of seeds in the same tray.
*********
Dear OceanGrown,
Over the last 15 years I have had great interest in the nutrition of myself, my family and those closest to me. In my lifelong quest for perfect nutrition, I have been introduced to OceanSolution. The first time I heard the Ocean Water concept, it immediately made per ... read more

I used half the amount of seeds in the same size tray and NO MOLD. Whoopee!!!! Yes it will cost a little more through the rest of this winter season but that’s okay! I have to order some bags of soil from wheatgrasskits.com so I can keep the wheatgrass going.
Here’s some wonderful facts/uses for wheatgrass:
Dr.Birscher, a research scientist, called chlorophyll ”concentrated sun power.” He said chlorophyll increases function of the heart, affects the vascular system, the uterus, the intestine and the lungs.
According to Dr. Birscher, nature uses chlorophyll as a body cleanser, rebu ... read more
