Which one of you trouble makers

It was way ugly - it wasn't me but I am glad its gone.

Even though I never eat pork.

I'm probably as much to blame as anyone else I guess.
I sorry AG but turkey bacon sounds so wrong.

Turkey Bacon IS wrong. I tried it when they told me I couldn't eat regu;ar bacon anymore.That was the first and last time.
Luckily that have modified what they told me and I can eat low sodium bacon.
(PS:I also tried vegetable/soy preotein "bacon". Even the animals wouldn't eat it.)

You all should know that pork isn't good for you, shame on all you except Pat. Turkey bacon is 97 or 98% fat free too! If not turkey bacon, then veggie bacon or no bacon! You don't want to be clogging up your arteries now.

Did that other thread get even more ugly than it was? Glad I missed it then. :rolleyes:

Turns out no one did, it's still here.

Crap it came back. It wasn't here yesterday!!!! Someone re-nuke it.

99.9% the way threads get nuked is people use the report button or complain about people fighting. Never seen one come back before?!?!

I am sorry it is back too - but maybe people will freaking calm down and have a discussion.

Vegetarian bacon is the only bacon for me. Turkey bacon is fowl. (pun) naaaaaah! (but it is okay with me if you like it, I am glad hug hug)

you are what you eat. i am no swine. i guess i am a vegetable, you turkey. JUST KIDDING. HUG HUG

Well it's not the first time I've been called a pig!
If we are what we it, I'm in trouble because there is so little I can eat nowadays. Would you like a short list of what I am not suppose to have?
milk (of any variation), soy milk,orange jiuce,bananas,cantalope,apricots,mangos,nectarines ,peaches,raisins,beans(same as milk,not suppose to have any variations),cumcumbers,mushrooms,okra,peanuts,peas ,potatos, tomatoes.
That's a short list of foods with potassium that I'm not suppose to eat.
I'm also not suppose to eat foods with phosphorus in them.
That's a list for another time though,eh?
Dark colas are not allowed either, though I can have giner ale and root beer!
The bottom line in my opinion is all of you eat what what makes you happy, you never know when you may not be able to!

Yes, it seems everything they tell you is good for you and will keep you healthy is on my no-no list. It's quite a task making meals.
Tho I do have a confession, after about a year and 1/2 I broke down and snuck a glass of OJ, and boy was it good!

Do they list **** berry? That is a magic food. I have an organic blend that also contains blueberry and pomegrante juice - it says 40mg) potassium (1%) though.

Check out http://www.thetotalhealthshop.com/Or...FRg6awodChuQOQ for all that **** does but of course check with your doctor before you try it.

The other magic juice is Goji from Tibet. You can read about that there too.

I hope you get a new kidney soon. I will tell you, you have scared me (you are a blessing). I used to drink very little water except in coffee. My kidneys probably look like raisins. Now I am going through gallons of spring water.

There really is little information I can find on potassium content of various things,especially something like ****. I have heard of it but have not had the chance to try it.I'm going to check it out, pomegranite is ok and I do drink it at times, Goji I have never heard of, I will have to look into that.
As far as a new kidney, I have to wait at least two years of being "certified cancer free". I am having my operation next friday and the Drs. say that can certify me cancer free right after the operation.
To be honest that is the only reason I agreed to surgery rather than any of my other choices.
I had 52 years out of 54 of being healthy,so I can't complain too much I guess, and the experience has given me a new outlook on life.
I also hope that others can benefit from what I am going through and what I have learned.
One thing I stress to everyone is get a second opinion!

Yes I agree, second opinion, Kim.

Not just that but both holistic and auyervedic medicine have been used for hundreds of years and offer many natural ways to prevent and even cure things that doctors won't tell you/don't know. They actually receive very little training in nutrition in medical school and the vast majority of problems are either caused by a deficit of or allergy to nutritional elements.

However I do caution people from not seeing what the doctor says FIRST, because there is a point where things change and we don't want to miss the window, or be using a method that may not be effective - every case is different of course.

There are certified doctors of holistic medicine and I have been reading a lot of things where some medical doctors are finally acknowledging nutritional and holistic methods.

Yeh - health is one of the major blessings. Even with a million dollars in your pocket, if you do not have your health, life is difficult.

One of our clients was telling me how he made so much money in his career, took the money and invested it in real estate and has just lost everything including their home, etc.

He is worried about his wife living in an apartment. I was like, dude, she has had a happy marriage for 48 years and you both have your health. All that stuff you lost is really just stuff - none of which would matter at all if you weren't healthy.

He was down with that but for some reason doesn't think his wife is. I think he would probably be surprised to find out she understands the value in what she DOES have, unless she is predatory.

It wasn't nuked. It was only placed on hold till everyone chilled out a
little.

Now if everyone plays nice maybe we can keep the Off Topic forum too!

Have a Great Day!
Michael

PS, Sal, I agree totally, Every thing is good in moderation!
It's like every thing else in life, It all depends on what you do with it that
counts!

Thank you for the potassium link,I've looked before and the ones I found were not as good imo.
I will check out the other link as well.
I agree about the cranberry juice, I've been told to drink it by many people but as you said, hard to get past the taste!
I guess we really are troublemakers,hijacking AG's thread like this!

Haha, so there's a "time out" or "naughty chair" for threads to stay for a while if things get too heated. lol are you responsible for that Mayonnaise man? Who puts threads in time out? I liked the idea of the thread being nuked anyway.

That one worked,thanks!

I've found that http://herbdoc.com has a great deal of all-natural nutritional products, a bit "not-cheap", but some good stuff there...

Be Well!
