Alison Palmer's commentsComments On: Everything Articles Blogs Journals Photos created by: EveryoneAlison The Dairy Debate09 Feb 2007 07:31 PM You're right about the conspiracy theory, in a way- That's why the debate will never be fully resolved. Dairy is big business, and the livelyhood of many a little farmer. Alternative Medicine and Your Doctor09 Feb 2007 07:01 PM That's a very good argument, and probably true. Now you've got me curious to see if there are any studies to back that up! Thanks for sharing Julie. The Dairy Debate09 Feb 2007 06:59 PM I've been trying to cut back just for the sake of cost- it's so expensive! You're right though, I can't imagine a world without ice cream! Alternative Medicine and Your Doctor09 Feb 2007 09:37 AM Sadly, it's my husband who always looks at me funny when I say I'm going to try something alternative. Well, he looks at me funny when I go to my regular doctor to. Maybe there's a pattern there that has nothing to do with healthcare. Am I just funny to look at?! Simple Health Lessons from Cub Scouts09 Feb 2007 06:46 AM Oh, you're going to love it. (Or not) I call my time as den leader my repentence period, since I'd been a primary president before and refused to learn anything about cub scouts. I'm still paying for that one. Remind me before conference and I'll bring you 2 books to help you on your way! Tip of the Day- Take the Stairs09 Feb 2007 06:43 AM I tried that once. :) My boys just thought is was an open invitation to use them as sleds down the stairs! Understanding Good and Bad Cholesterol05 Feb 2007 10:19 AM Goodness that's a lot of questions! Certainly more than I can give a reply to here. Watch my blog over the coming weeks, and I'll do my best! Statistics and research can be tricky things, since you can make numbers say just about anything you want, so I try to stay away from definate conclusions unless I can pull up the evidence from multiple, reputable studies. You are definately on the right track with your Omega-3's, though, good job! Alison Tip of the Day- Eat Breakfast02 Feb 2007 06:57 AM Why is it I don't like oatmeal? I can eat cream of wheat and many other varieties of warm cereal but I have a total mental block about oatmeal. My mother used to cook hers up in cookies and call that breakfast. :) I thought it was a pretty good idea but it took all fun out of it for her when I suggested she also add wheat germ. The things we do in the name of health! BTW, the research really does back up what your Dr. said. So keep gagging! Tip of the Day- Drink an Extra Glass of Water25 Jan 2007 08:38 AM Yes, I'm afraid much of the water in the US is an acquired taste. If we didn't grow up drinking it, we probably couldn't stand it either! I even have a friend who found that the reason she was getting sick so much was because she was allergic to the minute amounts of chlorine the city was using to "purify" the water she was drinking. Wouldn't it be nice if good, clean water were available to everyone, and if it would fix all of our health problems! Thanks for your comments. 1 2 |
