Enzyme Nutrition and Cellulite

January 29, 2012

My interest in enzymes was piqued during a conversation that began, of all places,  in the comments section of my post about an easy recipe for lamb fries.  Marc, a CI reader in Scotland, is a raw foodie–and not of the lettuce and sprouts variety, either.  He eats raw meats, even raw lamb testicles! Our discussion naturally led to enzymes, an element present in all raw foods but destroyed at 115 degrees or so.  Enzymes [...]

Thumbnail image for A Bone Broth Breakthrough: Fluoride-Free, Finally!

This time last year, I was just starting to experiment with making stock in my new slow cooker.  The DeLonghi crock pot was the #1 item on my Christmas list last year because I wanted to put my bone broth theory to the test. The Bone Broth Theory My theory on bone broth is that it is the perfect healing food for cellulite.  It is the traditional source of glucosamine, collagen, and the other raw [...]

October 26, 2011
Thumbnail image for My Fluoride Detox Update: The Best Fruit for Fluoride Detox

In my last fluoride detox update, I wrote about my experience adding magnesium oil and a magnesium supplement to my detox strategy.  However, the mineral I’m still interested in most for its fluoride detox potential is boron. My Initial Experiments with Boron to Detox Fluoride Boron could be even more effective than iodine at displacing fluoride from the body.  When I took a calcium-magnesium supplement with added boron, the reactions I experienced were significant.  It [...]

It’s been several months now since I started my fluoride detox.  Progress feels slow at times, but I know real healing takes time. Another Fluoroderma Flareup in Fluorideville In my last update, I wrote about how I successfully avoided another fluoroderma outbreak even while spending a full week in Fluorideville.  This month I wasn’t as lucky.  After eating a couple questionable meals while traveling (such as lamb with orzo, even though I tried to avoid [...]

This is so exciting!  My fellow blogger, Ann Marie at Cheeseslave.com (that’s her to the right), is hosting a bone broth challenge for the month of July.  Are you in? The inspiration behind the challenge was a quote from Cate Shanahan’s book, Deep Nutrition: “To get rid of cellulite, combine exercise with a diet full of healthy, natural fats (including animal fat) and collagen-rich stocks. This will send the message that you want your body [...]

It’s been almost a full six months since I my fluoride detox strategy has been in full swing.  In my last update, I mentioned a few small signals that led me to believe the detox might be working. A few days after I wrote that post, I left on a business trip that lasted several days.  I was staying at a hotel in Fluorideville, eating nothing but restaurant food prepared with fluoridated water.  Surprisingly, I [...]

The nutrition world has been abuzz lately about the recent abolition of the food pyramid.  This iconic dietary aid has been replaced by Michelle Obama’s “food plate.” (see, Say Goodbye to the Food Pyramid). The Food Plate encourages Americans to fill half their plate with fruits and vegetables. The other half includes a large portion of grains and a smaller serving of protein.  A small circle on the side allows for some milk or other [...]

Bone Broth Experiment and Cellulite Status Update

June 13, 2011
Thumbnail image for Bone Broth Experiment and Cellulite Status Update

My bone broth experiment has been in full swing for a few months now.  The theory is that gelatin, glucosamine, and other nutrients in traditionally-prepared stock will allow the body to repair the damaged connective tissue that causes cellulite. I did not expect to see results right away.  I know real healing takes time.  It took approximately two years to heal my acne even after I discovered it was caused by fluoride.  While healing from [...]

My e-guide to fluoroderma is in the final editing stages.  One of the chapters is about common sources of fluoride exposure. I receive this question on a regular basis, so here is a quick reference guide on the subject. Foods with Fluoride non-organic poultry products, especially mechanically de-boned chicken such as chicken nuggets, ground chicken, chicken hot dogs, etc.; also, chicken soup made from bones (fluoride from pesticides on feed accumulates in bones, fat, and [...]
