I think I found the perfect dessert for a hot summer day and it's not ice cream. Frozen cherries! Clean the cherries and then spin them dry in a salad spinner. Freeze them in a ziploc bag. For dessert, take out a dozen or so and enjoy! Don't forget to watch out for the pits of course. Depending on the temperature of your freezer, you may want to let them sit for a minute or ...

Ive read MD's like Swank all prohibit eating red meat Some say organic red meat is ok, but some MD's say all red meat increases inflammation so bad for MS. Is there any journals or evidence that organic red meat is not inflammatory or harmful to MS people?

Was wondering if anyone tried it? It is high in omega 3's. Has the GLA.. it really looks a lot like what we need. I am not talking about the stuff made from weed. I am talking about what comes from the vitamin store. I know many of take flax and fish oil. It looks like to me this stuff would make a great addition to get the good fats we need. Any input..

An interesting article on diet and epigenetics...

A documentary film discussing the benefits of a diet similar to Dr. Wahls' diet. It tracks the progress of two men who lost weight (one who was morbidly obese) and cured themselves of urticaria, an autoimmune inflammatory condition and a woman who cured herself of migraine headaches and restored her physical energy levels. Watch it for free... Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead.http://www.hulu.com/watch/289122NHE ...
