it's going to be a scorcher again today, almost 95° and it's not even 11 AM. Friend of ours picked today to have her air conditioning go up, poor planning, if you ask me. Don't know what I would do if I didn't have air conditioning, though I was 13 before I ever lived in a house that had it, but the stakes are different now. The in- law's are in their 80s and never turn the A/C on! Maybe that's why they are in their 80s, they are just tougher than me? all I know is I have the air-conditioning blasting, a fan right on me, and my eyes are still flickering in and out. Oh well, I guess I'm not 13 anymore?
okay, so I am really, truly, honestly interested in eating better, either the swank diet, or the Paleolithic diet. Here's my problem, what do you eat? Mornings are easy, a mitochondria drink made with kale, grapes, apple, banana, a little water, and some ice, all thrown into a blender. What do you eat for lunch? A plateful of greens, sulfur vegetables, what in the hell are sulfur vegetables? It would be so much easier if it was like when I was a kid and my mother would just give me a plateful of food, sulfur vegetables, indeed!
Hi Andy,
ReplyDeleteIt's 98 here, going past 100 this aft. I have the ac on, but I'm still suffering.
Adjusting to the new diet is difficult. There are a couple of books I can suggest for you, that have recipes and menu ideas.
"The Multiple Sclerosis Diet Book", by by Roy Laver Swank and Barbara Brewer Dugan.
"Cooking Well:Multiple Sclerosis:Over 75 Easy And Delicious Recipes" by by Marie Courtier and Vincent F. Macaluso MD
Both are available from Amazon.
There’s a free downloadable chapter from a brand new book and lots of information online at http://www.WhileScienceSleeps.com about how to avoid making your MS worse – and even how to begin to see improvement in your symptoms. It’s a simple diet. All you have to do is give up smoking, aspartame (diet sodas, lite yogurts, chewing gum), tomatoes, home- or commercially-canned fruits and vegetables, and packaged or bottled juices. Please check it out. It really works and could give you your life back!
ReplyDeleteI feel for you in this heat...we have a/c or I would die! I cannot give advice when it comes to eating healthy...I hope you can
