General kitchen advice

Good food alone cannot make you healthy and happy. You also need sunshine (for vitamin D and strong biorhythms), moderate exercise, relaxation, and love. A daily walk outdoors will give you the first three. Use a water-filter and nontoxic household products (available from us & elsewhere). Get mercury fillings out of your teeth. Avoid drugs and manmade chemicals whenever possible. If your health remains poor, find a doctor who will search for the root causes, not suppress the symptoms with drugs and surgery.


Buy Local Food : With local food you'll get exceptional taste and freshness, strengthen your local economy, support endangered family farms, safeguard your family's health, and protect the environment.


Weight loss info

The Glycaemic Index Diet
The glycaemic index diet system is based on the glycaemic index, a list of food types and a score representing the ease that the glucose of the food gets converted to glucose in the dieters body. The claim is that long-acting food types (ie those food types with a low Glycaemic index score), suppress your appetite for longer and help to consume fewer food without starving yourself.
It's also extremely beneficial for individuals with diabetes, as the low GI food types are useful in reducing surges in blood sugar secretion.

Ingredients And Procedures

10 c Old Fashioned Rolled Oats

1 c Wheat Germ

1/2 lb Shredded Coconut

2 c Shelled Raw Sunflower Seeds

1 c Sesame Seeds

3 c Chopped Nuts

1 1/2 c Brown Sugar, Firmly Packed

1 1/2 c Water

1 1/2 c Vegetable Oil

1/2 c Honey

1/2 c Molasses

1 1/2 ts Salt

2 ts Cinnamon

3 ts Vanilla

Raisins Or Other Dried Fruit Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. (150 degrees F.). In a large bowl combine oats, wheat germ, coconut, sunflower seeds, sesame seed and nuts ( can include almonds, pecans, walnuts, or a combination of all of them). Blend well. In a large saucepan combine brown sugar, water, oil, honey, molasses, salt, cinnamon and vanilla. Heat until sugar is dissolved, but do not boil. Pour the syrup over the dry ingredients and stir until well-coated. Spread onto five 13 X 9-inch baking pans, or cookie sheets with sides. Bake 20 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Bake 15 minutes longer for crunchier texture. Cool. Add raisins or other dried fruit, if desired. Put in airtight containers and label as Granola mix. Store in a cool dry place and use within 6 months. Makes about 20 cups of mix.
