Keto fish cakes

Keto fish cakes recipe th a lotS of fiber. It uses almond meal instead of flour it’s a nice recipe if you like fish cakes. Fish patties
I decided it you only needed Five minutes on each side. The patties can actually be made into a 🍔 fish hamburger to?
I had a blood sugar this morning of 260 I took 20 units I had one of these fish cakes in my blood sugar went down 184 units just with one fish cake. High protein and fiber you don’t want to Mrs. couple either you’re so cute and they make a lot of sense otherwise I wouldn’t have them here On my Pages.

Update on Cinnamon for Blood Sugar Control + Insulins'

I accidental ran onto this- Another YouTube video on sugar control and loved it: This guy's A1C went down seven in 6 months with the use of cinnamon not in capsules as I tried and it didn't work for me the trick is to get the correct cinnamon? Gimmick's
Balance out proteins with fiber (beans/grain's can have a least 5 gram per meal,) then add in your veg and/or fruit; too much meat is too harsh on the bodies organs. Do without meat in a meal; replace some meals with veg. proteins.

(The herbal, vitamins., remedies doesn't work either! but, do count as your fruit/vegetables i.e.

Cinnamon is an excellent spice which is well-known for maintaining glucose level and improving insulin sensitivity in type II diabetic patients as subjected in a study published in the ‘Proceedings of the Nutrition Society’ journal. http://shermsorganicnews.blogspot.com/2012/10/i-accidently-ran-onto-this-youtube.html

**Insulin for diabetics using e coli as it's carrier is a slow poison and not known how harmful this can be however, they are causing other symptoms (Neonatal meningitis)Signs and symptoms
E. coli O157:H7 infection often causes severe, acute hemorrhagic diarrhea (although nonhemorrhagic diarrhea is also possible) and abdominal cramps. Usually little or no fever is present, and the illness resolves in five to 10 days. It can also be asymptomatic.
In some people, particularly children under five years of age, persons whose immunologies are otherwise compromised, and the elderly, the infection can cause hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), in which the red blood cells are destroyed and the kidneys fail. About 2–7% of infections lead to this complication. In the United States, HUS is the principal cause of acute kidney failure in children, and most cases of HUS are caused by E. coli O157:H7. (And what does diabetes do? Read again!
Signs and Symptoms
The following is a list of common signs and symptoms found with neonatal meningitis. These diseases are interrelated.
•Fever
•poor appetite (given to bulimic's to give them an appetite)
•anterior fontanelle bulging
•seizure
•jitteriness
•dyspnea
•irritability
•anorexia
•vomiting
•diarrhea
•abdominal distention (increase in abdominal size)
•neck rigidity
•cyanosis
•jaundice
•and sunset eyes (downward gaze of the eyes)
•abnormal body temperature (hypo-or hyperthermia)
•change of activity (lethargy or irritability)
Unfortunately these symptoms are unspecific and may point to many different conditions.
Other Insulin's have YEAST as it extender or carrier. Yeast is known to also cause diabetes. Which poison would you care to take? They calm us down by saying they make it into crystal form then it isn't active. Hello. We buy dry yeast then add warm water as in our body's to re-active it and it blooms.
The drug corporations has been peddling their own snake oil for generations. The public and others thinkers who think outside the box needs to find a cure on our own. They know what cures diabetes but, it would destroy the drug wall street industry's (needles, meters, sticks i.e.) This is their best business.


Delious #Fiber-Cookie-recipe

Fiber Cookie Recipe
Cookies are normally associated with having high sugar content that leads to
fat and gaining weight. What fiber cookies offers on the other hand is a twist
between maintaining the good taste of a regular cookie while providing your body
with a large amount of fiber which is nutritious to your health. Fiber is a
great nutrient for helping your digestive system to work more effectively and
lowering your cholesterol which allows your body to absorb food better and
reduce the risk of heart disease and other diseases. So next time you want to
have a cookie without having to concentrate too much on its effect on your
weight and other health issues try making a Fiber Cookie.
I've added protein too.

Preparation Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Ingredients
2   large eggs
¾ cup of brown sugar
1 cup of rolled oats
1 cup of oat bran
1 cup of Kellogga's bran flakes
1 cup of fiber
1 cup of seedless raisins or cranberries
1 cup of chopped English or, black walnuts
1 cup of margarine (or 2 sticks)
¾ cup of sugar
2 cup of all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon of salt
2 tablespoon of vanilla
1 tablespoon of baking soda
½ cup of water
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Place the oat bran, rolled oats, fiber one, bran flakes, raisins and walnuts
in the large bowl and use the spoon to mix them together.
Put the sugar and margarine in the mixing bowl and use the electric mixer at
medium speed to cream them out.
Gradually add in the egg whites into the creamed mixture and then the
vanilla, use the spoon to scrape the bowl before and after the egg whites.
Put the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda into one bowl and mix
them out together.
Put the mixer on low speed and then take the dry ingredients and add it to
the cream mixture and also some water.
Continue to add bran mixture to the creamed mixture until everything is
incorporated.
Use th e aluminum foil/cooking paper to line up the cookie sheet or use butter or cooking
spray to base it.
Use the spoon to add the batter to the cookie sheet and place the cookie
sheet into the oven for about 12 -14 minutes until it baked or lightly
browned.
When the cookies are done baked take them out and allow the cookies to cool
for about a minute and then place them onto the wire rack.

Gut Microsbiota To Improve Blood Sugars

Gut micro biota may improve sugar metabolism in humans

barley bread_bl
Why diets do not have the same effect in different individuals has long been a mystery in the field of nutrition. Different studies in recent years have shed some light on the issue, highlighting the role gut microbiota plays in both the physiology and metabolism of humans.


In fact, it is known that the trillion microorganisms inhabiting the human colon modulate dietary interventions and can be an important environmental factor that contributes to the development of metabolic diseases such as type-2 diabetes, obesity and even cardiovascular conditions.

Furthermore, it is a two-way relationship, with food altering bacteria and bacteria affecting the metabolism of food.
Now, a new study by scientists from the Sahlgrenska Academy at the University of Gothenburg demonstrates which bacteria are responsible for some of these effects. Published in Cell Metabolism, the authors show how the bacteria Prevotella improves glucose metabolism in healthy human subjects. Prevotella is linked with a high fibre intake, whereas Bacteroides, for example, is associated with an elevated consumption of protein and fat.
In an experiment with 39 individuals, the scientists put the subjects on a diet that included eating barley bread for three days and then, following a break, consuming white bread. They measured glucose and insulin responses to the diets and observed how in most participants, the barley bread was linked to an improved response in terms of sugar control compared to white bread.
Nevertheless, the level of improvement in some individuals was much clearer than in others.
The authors of the study measured the gut microbiota of every subject and observed how it changed in the individuals who had the most positive response to the dietary intervention, showing a higher proportion of Prevotella. However, the opposite effect was observed in individuals who had responded least to the barley bread intervention.
“Our findings clearly show the importance of the interaction between gut microbiota and diet and contribute to our understanding of metabolism in health and disease. The results may help to explain why responses to different dietary treatments are so individual,” co-author of the study Professor Fredrik Bäckhed from the Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg said in a statement

To confirm their results, the scientists carried out a second experiment, this time with rodents. They transplanted either faecal microbiota from the individuals who showed a positive response or Prevotella probiotics to germ-free mice and observed how the rodents improved their glucose metabolism and increased their Prevotella levels.


The link between the gut microbiota and various dietary fibres could help develop more individualised dietary guidelines. In fact, this study shows that Prevotella is crucial for digesting complex fibres and this may stimulate and improve the body’s glycaemic response. In this respect, several recently published papers support the idea that Prevotella is a critical bacterium for healthy microbiota.
“Our results also show that control of blood sugar improves in mice supplemented with Prevotella if they are given a high-fibre diet. Our findings could lead to a combination product with Prevotella and fibre from grains,” said Bäckhed.

Lose Weight by Eating Pooh


I heard this report on the Dr. OZ show yesterday: Are poop pills a potential obesity prevention method or treatment?
Another study: http://toughertimestoday.blogspot.com/2016/02/gut-microsbiota-to-improve-blood-sugas.html
 Skinny people's gut has these microbes. They've seen the results in identical twin, (One was over-weight with a no gut bacteria. The skinny one guts bacteria was transplanted into the over-weight twin and she lost all her weight.) They've repeated the study in mice with the same results.


 (Fecal transplantation is not a completely new therapy and has been used to treat recurrent cases of Clostridium difficile infection of the intestines)
Want to lose some weight? Should you eat some poop..actually someone else’s poop? That’s what researchers at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) will be testing in a clinical trial this year when they take fecal samples from lean people and give them in 1-2 gram capsules to obese individuals. Now you may think that just the thought of eating poop (or scientifically speaking feces) may make you lose weight. But that’s not the mechanism that Elaine W. Yu, MD, an endocrinologist at MGH and her team, will be testing. Their trial is based on growing evidence that the gut microbiome (the city of bacteria and other microorganisms in your intestines) may have something to do with your weight, health, and obesity.
The rationale behind the study is that leaner people may have different types of microorganisms living in their intestines and that transferring these bacteria to obese individuals via freeze dried poop (er…feces) may help the latter lose weight.
So, are poop pills a potential obesity prevention method or treatment ? Or is this idea just full of…(well, you know what)? Studies have suggested that altering the gut micro biome can lead to obesity. This includes studies that have found obese individuals to have less diverse types of bacteria in their microbiome. (Turns out just as in the human population, diversity may good in the intestinal bacteria population.) Studies have also found that things that make the gut microbiome less diverse are associated with obesity, such as high fat, low fiber, and high refined carbohydrate diets. Don't take antibiotics that kill many bacteria species in your intestines and allow fewer species to dominate. Additionally, fecal transplants (i..e, moving poop from one individual to another) have shown promise in reducing weight in mice.

Cheezy Califlower Nuggets

I made these: They are an excellent tasting protein stack!!!
Ingredients
1 small head cauliflower (or, I use 1/2 pkg of GREEN GIANT'S, Cauliflower Crumbles for less money and easier. They have just pkg. of florets too)
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup breadcrumbs (Just blend your gluten bread in blender i.e.) (Some breads have to much sodium. adjustment when needed.)
1 tsp dried parsley
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt.
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (Veggie cheese?)
3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
(2 Tbs coconut oil if needed for weight loss) optional

Original recipe makes 8 Servings
Ready in 45 minutes

Preparation

1. Preheat the oven to 350 F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
2. Stem and chop your cauliflower into florets. Cook or steam them until
they ’re just tender. Strain them from the water and squeeze out as much of their
liquid as humanly possible. You can also use bounty paper towels. Then, chop up
the florets. (not necessary to steam if you use the tiny "crumbles")
3. In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients. you may have to add some
more breadcrumbs if when cooked there is still liquid left and they are unmanageable. Form
them into nuggets by pressing them together as much as you can, and place them
on the baking sheet. (brown in oven)
Don't burn, let them cool and package them for snacks in fridge.

Please note that you can also cook them in a pan with a drizzle of olive oil.

PEANUT BUTTER AND BREAD PERFECT; PROTEIN

 Lentils such as: Peanut butter and bread make a complete protein.  100 g of peanut butter has 25 g of protein, 100 g of beef has 22 g of protein.  Most people need 30-60 g daily depending on weight. There are so many sources of protein.  One of the best complete proteins is lentils, as you get minimum fat  and lentils can be cooked in 20 minutes using a cheap Walmart pressure cooker or, on the top of stove.

If you want to become a vegan, lentils are one of the best sources of fiber, energy and protein.  When we eat cooked lentils 2-3 times a day in portions of 150-300 g, we get 40-80 grams of protein with all 9 essential aminoacids we need each day even if we are an athlete.  We also get 36-72 g of fiber a day, more than most people get from all their foods. Most adults need 40-60 g of protein a day.  We also need about 70 g of fiber for best prevention of diabetes, digestive tract issues, colon cancer and heart disease.  Lentils have almost no sugars, lots of fiber that regulates blood sugar, cholesterol.  They have the lowest level of phytic acid among beans, nuts, grains and legumes, the lowest oxalate level (20 times lower than spinach) among legumes, nuts and grains.  
Soaking lentils for 10 hours in hot (60 centigrade) filtered water is a good idea, as it removes 90% of the phytic acid known to cause problems.  Eating processed foods means eating a lot of phytic acid, since they don't soak grains/soy before making breads, tofu, etc.  Phytic acid can cause mineral deficiencies.  You can use a pressure cooker (they got those at Walmart for $80), it takes 20-30 minutes after soaking to cook them, that way you just press a button and it stops by itself.

A popular myth has been as such:  "to get complete protein you need to eat rice and beans or rice and lentils, if you eat only lentils you are screwed".  The myth means that "if you eat 100 g of cooked lentils and 100 g of cooked rice you get higher protein quality (more of the essential 9 aminoacids) than if you eat 200 g of cooked lentils".  Below I will prove this is totally false and a total aberration.
Let us look at the science data now.  100 g of cooked lentils and 100 g of cooked rice contain the following amounts of the 9 essential aminoacids, according to

http://nutritiondata.self.com/facts/cereal-grains-and-pasta/5712/2

http://nutritiondata.self.com/facts/legumes-and-legume-products/4338/2:

COOKED LENTILS VERSUS COOKED RICE

1.  Methionine ► 77mg/100g lentils vs 63mg/100g rice
2.  Valine ► 448mg/100g lentils vs 164mg/100g rice
3.  Histidine ► 254mg/100g lentils vs 63mg/100g rice
4. Tryptophan ► 81mg/100g lentils  vs 31mg/100g  rice
5. Leucine ►  *654mg/100g lentils vs 222mg/100g rice*
6.  Isoleucine ► 390mg/100g lentils vs 116mg/100g rice
7.  Threonine ► 323mg/100g lentils vs 96mg/100g rice
8.  Lysine ► 630mg/100g lentils vs 97mg/100g rice
9.  Phenylalanine ► 445mg/100g lentils vs 144mg/100g rice

As science tells us in the 9 lines above, eating 200 g of cooked lentils provides you with a far more complete protein than eating 100 g of lentils and 100 g of rice.  Eating rice is not needed for vegans or vegetarians, since you don't normally soak it, get loaded with phytic acid, get far less fiber and far less protein.  The world should cultivate more lentils and fewer grains and beans.  Why?  Because grains and beans are harder to digest (some grains are as easy to digest as lentils) and have 3-5 times more phytic acid.

Even when you look at 6 other aminoacids, that are sometimes harder to make by the body in certain sick people, lentils beat rice:

1.  tyrosine ► 241mg/100 g lentils vs 90mg/100 g rice
2.  arginine ► 697mg/100g lentils vs 224mg/100g rice
3.  proline ► 377mg/100g lentils vs 127mg/100g rice
4.  glycine ► 367mg/100g lentils vs 122mg/100g rice
5.  cysteine ► 118mg/100g lentils vs 55mg/100g rice
6. glutamine ► 1399mg/100 g lentils vs 524mg/100g rice

Eating just 1 pound of cooked lentils  spread at 2-3 meals will provide you with 45 g of protein.  Add tomatoes, cucumbers, spinach, carrots, etc and you get a lot of healthy nutrition, all the fat, protein and complex carbs needed without sugar overload you get when eating sweet fruits.   Lentils have far more fiber than most fruits and veggies we eat without the simple sugars fruits and veggies have.

Just so you know, as you can see at the same website, aminoacid score of lentils, 86, is higher than milk, 85 ( http://nutritiondata.self.com/facts/dairy-and-egg-products/69/2 ), so another myth is busted.  As you may have read in other articles, some say 77 mg methionine is a little low, but if you eat 3 portions of 300 g of lentils, that's still a huge 700 mg a day from lentils alone.  However, Eating foods low in methionine helps to extend lifespan in rodent test subjects, according to a study published in a 2009 issue of “Medical Hypotheses.” Reduction of methionine dietary intake from 0.86 percent to 0.17 percent increased the life span of rat test subjects by 30 percent, according to a study published in a 1993 issue of “The Journal of Nutrition.”

People in Uganda, before the western diet came along, didn't have any heart disease http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/13375489 - one case found only in 1956 in a guy who started eating junk food), none at all and were known worldwide for that - and they ate 80 g or more of fiber from whole plant sources, more than the other countries.  Once the junk diet rich in meat, eggs and cheese came along, with zero fiber and lots of animal fat shown to trigger diabetes that speeds up heart disease, heart disease became the number one killer - which shows our so called "progress" is often really stagnation, replacing one disease with another.

Instead of choosing a cheaper, easier diet of whole plant foods, we spend trillions of pills to lower our blood pressure and use 160 times more land to grow cattle and 200 times more water too.  It's just mind boggling.  The stone age didn't end because of a shortage of stones, nor does the meat age need to end because of a shortage of meat.

SOUTHERN BUTTER BEAN SOUP

This is my favorite bean soup. In the south we called them "Butter beans." I don't know why except they melt in your mouth like butter plus I liked a pat of butter on them before serving. This is very good for you, economical, and a fibrous food toward weight-loss.

SHERM'S ORGANIC RECIPES] BUTTERBEAN SOUP
sherm197@aol.com  
Date:Sat, Aug 20, 2011 6:10 pm
Ingredient's:
1. One-quart fresh or frozen, butterbeans, Depending on the size of your family) Or,for a smaller batch; use 1/2 small package of dry butterbean. (These are the largest “white beans” on the legume shelf at your grocery store.) They may not be called “butter” beans on pkg. they are the larges white beans on the shelf.
2. Flavor; with butter substitute (such as, Butter Buds), or garnish with butter before served.
3. Flavor: with ½ Tbs. chicken bouillon, stock, cream of chicken soup-which needs to be added at the end of the cooking or,(The south uses ham hocks in the pot or add the flavor).
Use just one ham hock and freeze the rest for another time.
4. 1/2 tsp. Salt (Taste) at end of cooking)
5. Water
Crock Pot Method:
Place butterbeans, butter substitute, chicken bouillon to the water and cover in a small slow cooker.
Cook on high for 1 ½ hours.
Turn cooker to low and cook for another 2-3 hours or until butterbeans are tender. Add a small amount of additional water during cooking, if needed.
Cooked all afternoon, and check to see if they are too firm. I prefer the beans bit more soft with lots of soup.
(If you can get your hands on some fresh, green southern butter beans (not Limas!) Give this method a try.
Top of the stove method: Cook the ham hock until tender and begins to fall off the bone. Cool; Later, take it out and separate the meat; adding small chunks back into the pot.
Also, add back the bone to give it rich flavor and take out before serving. Don’t over do the meat...no need to. It will have plenty of flavor with just one hock. The soup looks good with bits of pork floating in the soup.
Add the 1/2 package of beans to the broth and meat. (How much beans or meat depends on your family size,) with one glove of garlic and a small chopped onion. Cook all until completely done on medium heat.
(As a soup you could add can of chopped tomatoes.)
Serve with a salad and corn bread which makes it the "perfect protein."

AVOCADO & HUMMUS SNACK

  • 1 (15 oz.) can chickpeas, rinsed, drained
  • 2 medium ripe avocados, seed removed
  • 2 tablespoons tahini
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 1 clove garlic, chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon cumin
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 cup cilantro leaves (reserve 1 tablespoon for garnish)
  • 1 small baguette, sliced into 1/4” slices
  • 3 tablespoons olive/sunflower oil
  • 2 medium tomatoes, chopped
  • Salt and Pepper, to taste
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
In a food processor, pulse the first 8 ingredients through cilantro (reserve some cilantro for garnish) with salt and pepper until semi-smooth, about 2 minutes.
Lay the baguette slices out on 1-2 baking sheets. Brush with canola oil. Sprinkle salt and pepper on each. Bake 4-5 minutes until slightly crisp and golden brown.
To serve, spread some of the avocado hummus on each. Top with a few chopped tomatoes. Garnish with cilantro. Serve immediately.
Note: For extra flavor, add cracked black pepper on top of the fresh tomato on the crostini’s before serving.
......................
Avocados have the most fiber of all common fruits and my blood sugar was only 104 after eating 7 small ones with some other stuff, unlike other fruits which make your 1 hour after eating glucose way higher. Mixed with other fruits, avocados lower blood glucose reading compared to those fruits alone. I always do tests of foods to see glucose response. Avocados also got the highest amino acid score of 129, of any veggie, fruit, nut or seed, even soy. Raw Vegans often wonder - what is an easy way to get fiber and protein? There are hundreds of ways, but below is just one example of what one could eat one day of the week or several:

a) 1 medium mature (not young) coconut = 13 grams of protein with score 87, 36 grams of fiber

COCONUTS (lower glucose, fight inflammation, lower bad cholesterol, eliminate candida, fight depression, prevent osteoporosis, improve digestion, lower serum triglycerides) ► https://plus.google.com/+AlexP/posts/hYLN6LTGoBr

b) 4 big zucchini (also called Italian squash, summer squash, eaten raw, has 8 times more lutein than carrots) (2 lb) = 22 grams of protein with score 89, for just 270 calories, 10 grams of fiber

ZUCCHINI ► https://plus.google.com/+AlexP/posts/ccPXHhqDyNw

c) 6 tiny (100 grams each) avocados = 12 grams of protein with score 129, and 42 grams of fiber

AVOCADOS (lower cholesterol, fight cancer (leukemia or blood cancer too), improve collagen synthesis for better skin and hair ► https://plus.google.com/+AlexP/posts/7diSczssqRD

d) some ginger and some tomatoes, and/or other small items you like, a little fruit, etc = another 5 grams of complete protein and say 5 grams of fiber

Note, all the above have amino acid score higher than 86 for lentils (a complete protein as explained amino acid by amino acid at https://plus.google.com/+AlexP/posts/DPagLPDS4wQ - lentils are more complete than rice and lentils or rice and beans, see explanation) or 85 for milk.

If you add a few tomatoes, the 1 coconut, 6 avocados and 4 summer Italian squash up, you get 52 grams of protein, the daily need for the average weight person, and 93 grams of fiber, which is perfect for optimal health (ideally one needs at least 50-60 grams).

How to Get High Blood Sugar's Down (300-500+)

Are you insulin resistant like myself? There's been a couple of times I woke up with 500+ and felt like passing out. I've tried out many insulin's, pill i.e. and the new ones out but it doesn't seem to work all the time. This is for those emergency's; discovered by accident and over time of using it. Fiber seems to be the answer. Its the balances of its protein with their fiber. (One or the other product doesn't seem to do it? Try it for yourself?
ORGANIC HEMP PROTEIN powder. I like the plain one by Nutiva but their are many band name and flavors. (Swanson Vitamin carries it cheaper and Amazon) It's just hemp no additives or flavor with 12 g of fiber and 11 protein per serving. (3 tbs.) (but, its like insulin you have to use it again  when ever needed; use in-between meals or nights. (Take tomato juice to cover the gritty stuff that settles to the bottom. The juice seem to stop it from settling.
Nutiva Hemp Protein Organic Superfood
This is what I use for an emergency's and not intended to replace your diabetic medications nor insulin's.
Found at most Health Food Stores and on the Internet


If your under 200 its more easy to control by your medicines.
NOW Foods GlucomannanUse the glucomannan powder (1/2 tsp. = 2,000 mg) or, if you buy caps empty them in 8 oz of water or it may not digest in the stomach where needed, take abt. 45 min., if possible, before eating and, drink down fast it will gel especially in warm liquids.
Benefits: weight loss, blood sugar control. This product alone does not seem to be as effective for b.s.? (but, a long run benefit toward weight  in turn help blood sugars)


Appreciate it if you'd leave a comments if you've tried these for blood sugars or weight...

Reversal of High Blood Pressure

High Blood Pressure reversal
An Holistic approach will be to treat the whole body. As in the liver, herbals some would be milk Thistle, Dandelion, Burdock Root or seed, Chaparral (thickening of the blood will overload circulatory system) or Astragalus Root. See also “Liver my posts.”
Included in this holistic approach include watching all the organs such as;
Kidney: Drink lots of pure water (boil water), or distilled water if your normal water has heavy metals in it. Get a juicer and use. Add some Lemons or Pomegranates and other fruit juices with foods or a bit diluted. Take herbs that are diuretic in nature to rid the body in some cases of excess water (celery seed).Use fresh or, a green powered drink every day.
No stimulates such as drugs, liquors or tobacco that acerbates this problem. Many medicines including insulin's will make this organ worse with time.
Nerves or hypertension herbs are helpful, use nerve’s such as Hops, Hyssops or Black Cohosh, Lobelia magnesium (1 morn and night) B complex and B vitamin and a multiple mineral etc.

 Foods: No Meats, use plant base diet if acute or use very little but, never two meals consecutively especially if mild condition of the heart. Mild food plant based diet or Semi Fast no mucus less diet (no cheeses). Use complex fibrous organic foods, Green leafy Vegetables and fruits, tomato juice, lemon juice (mornings), raw organic goats milk (if possible) and very small amount of cheeses/dairy with plant based fiber.
Calcium is a problem because most drugs to treat H.B.P. deplete the body of calcium that is needed in most cases) this actually acerbates this problem. Mono oil base margarines or, real butter with no hormones and use mono oils such as olive oil. No “white food or boxed process products. Also use plenty of Apple Cider Vinegar, Tomatoes, V8 juice cabbage family and organic soy etc. Organic Westsoy I use is full of protein 9 grams and 4 fiber. Great for starting the day, or in between meals. Get the unsweetened and add your own style of sugar.
Sugars: Natural raw sugars, Stevia or raw honey, Xylitol, only.
Treat the same as “Heart” sees PG.
Book: “Heart Break in Heart Disease” by Sanotra sp All rights reserved

The heart needs mono fats: Lecithin 3 tsp. daily, or Borage oil, Flaxseed oil and cleans out arteries, Fish oil, Wheat germ, Safflower oils, i.e. (every day) 3,6,9 omegas fatty, flaxseed oil, normal pH level foods that will keep the inflammations down. (3 tsp.daily).
Herbal Aid: Cactus liquid, 10 drops daily

Other Herbs: Capsicum, (1 tsp 3 times a day) Lobelia, Hawthorn Berry, Sassafras, Garlic, Chanca Piedra phyllanthus niruri (This herb will aid in plank build up, and increases bile secretions to lower blood cholesterol levels in rat studies.) Fenugreek is a blood thinner but is not be used with pain relievers. It is not to be taken with drug for thinning the blood. Chanca Piedra is for hypertension. Melatonin is another good herb for HBP. And Royal honey.
Treat for parasites and use products such as Duflucan, fluconazol, or Nystatin, i.e. (from doctor) (Parasites are always involved) Black Walnut Hull, good organic Oregano oil, Olive Leaf extract and i.e., change from one parasitic herb to another every three months. Herbs for liver also see these studies.
A holistic approach will included especially the Colon: Senna or Psyllium and other herbal laxative, Mandrake if very sick will aid colon and liver but it is a laxative but not to be used if pregnant, or going to be. Keep the colon clear everyday. If this is not done it’s like a kinked hose and building up pressure. Fibrous plant based diet is important and/or add to the diet (Gymnema) or such fibrous herbs (foods). So is the bowel flora that is off in this condition.
Add a good yogurt such as Kefir, i.e. 3-10 days. Psyllium will sweep out pockets in colon and grab on to the parasite and toxins. Add 3mg of Senna if you still have constipations, but this is a fast moving herb to deal with and may have to be adjusted to individuals.
(Fiber foods)
Excellent for kidneys, if you choose organic and seeded

 Be sure to use watermelon and its seeds (organic if possible)
Remember it's called Hypertension, keep calm (Avoid really stressful situation if you can)
Kava Kava, and Ashwagandha extract, garlic, Bach Rescue Remedy in emergency's

Low Fats or Carbs Differences in Weight-Loss

I hope you don't mind that I spend so much time on weight loss. I'm on a roll and doing good loosing weight this year, for diabetic on insulin's (fat hormones) it's extra hard. But, we still have to KEEP IT OFF! Remember to read previous post about BALANCES: of good protein's with fiber (which includes fruit/vegetables. (Herbal teas or/and Lemon water not pop) Please note: If kidney problems too much animal protein is not advisable for anyone.)
So, I'm backing up what, in some cases, and pointing out false information. The knows nothing about these new old studies, that have made weight loss worse.
a meat substitute ina can


Stay away from their "diabetic news" (low sugars substitutes, go with your gut feelings. Let them drink sodas and too much juices (not natural). All of lies or ignorance's (?) but, it keep government agencies and its money coming in with these studies and for a job!


Weight loss is not about low fat or low carbs: The main verdict was that there was no difference in weight loss between low-fat and high-fat diets. However, the low-fat diets fared slightly better than the low-carb diets; people had lost about 2.5 more pounds after at least a whole year. But the difference was small and the researchers did not think it would lead to any meaningful health benefits.
"We thought (comparing) low vs. high fat diets would help us identify the optimal diet, but it's clear that just focusing on how much fat is in your diet is not what is going to help address the obesity epidemic," said Dr. Deirdre Tobias, epidemiologist at Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School. Tobias is the lead author of the study, which was published this week in The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology journal.
should we eat carbs sanjay gupta health explainer mss orig_00011209.jpg
Add complex carbs no white over processed anything for diabetic's as they need slower releases of insulin.
And, we need rich omega oils for brain and weight issues, so keep researching
The commons bad diet types includes fads as in; low-fat diets, such as the popular high-carb diet developed by Dr. Dean Ornish, the low-carbohydrate diet, such as the popular program created by Dr. Robert Atkins, and high-fat diets, such as the Mediterranean menu, which has been shown to have health benefits in addition to weight loss.

Glucomannan For Weight Loss (fiber), Yerba Mate


What is glucomannan? (Amorphophallus kanjac)or, called Kanjac root ?
Glucomannan can absorb up to 200 times its weight in water and forms a thick, gel-like mass that has been shown to be approximately five times greater than that of guar gum.
How does glucomannan support health?

•As a water-soluble fiber, glucomannan is appropriate for the relief of occasional constipation.


•The unique, bulk-forming property of glucomannan makes it a top-performing fiber specifically suited for providing a feeling of satiety (fullness) and promoting healthy weight loss.


•Glucomannan may be used as part of your diet to help maintain a healthy blood sugar level.*

•Promotes healthy blood lipid metabolism and helps maintain cholesterol levels that are already within the normal range.


*The powder u only take 1/2 teaspoon before each large meal at least 30 minutes before. Read direction on bottle. I've also read studies on Kanjac Root and it's all natural, however, some professional weight loss company's have added in other ingredient's just to look exclusive.
It is available to buy glucomannan a whole lot cheaper than the diet pill .... LIPOZENE Lipo is expensive you can get this medication at Wal-Mart - remember to buy at least 180 capsules. You must take at least 3,000 mg. per meal. Pills usually come in 660mg each; use to be at Wal-Mart that's abt4 pills per meal.
So  many diet aids add Konjac Root to their formulas. Remember the (Hydeoxycut) Sprinkles on your food before you ate (same with additives?). Also, one could add the product to other foods, gravy's, sauces i.e.
https://youtu.be/kbe4iowYMqM  (shiratake noodles is from this root) 



Have these teas in your cupboard for diabetic control
=====================================================


I am going to start this "flaxseed flour". I have uses it as an egg substitute and in my muffins i.e. I never thought of using them like this;
Clean Your Body Of Toxins With This Powerful Recipe Made Of Only 2 Ingredients
"Clean Your Body Of Toxins With This Powerful Recipe Made Of Only 2 ... | Instiks http://instiks.com/pin/4457/
Note;
Weight loss (study) Excellent tea in mornings
1. Yerba mate contains polyphenols such as flavonoids and phenolic acids, which work by inhibiting enzymes like pancreatic lipase and lipoprotein lipase, which in turn play a role in fat metabolism. Yerba mate has been shown to increase satiety by slowing gastric emptying. Effects on weight loss may be due to reduced absorption of dietary fats and/or altered cholesterol metabolism.
Despite yerba mate’s potential for reducing body weight, there is minimal data on the effects of yerba mate on body weight in humans. Therefore, yerba mate should not be recommended over diet and physical exercise without further study on its effects being warranted.
.............
Yerba maté
Yerba maté (Ilex paraguariensis) is an evergreen tree that is native to South America. In a combination preparation also containing guarana (Paullinia cupana) and damiana (Turnera diffusa), it was tested in patients with a BMI. I. paraguariensis and in particular P. cupana contain relatively large amounts of caffeine and have been shown by ultrasound scanning to prolong gastric emptying time. The descriptive results of that study indicated that this combination preparation might potentially be effective in lowering body weight. Adverse events were not reported.

Lose weight on bread

Lost some more weight, I found some raisin, brand muffin's at Wall mart. (6 gram's of protein and 7 grams of fiber. (Perfect for me. I have three ft. of colon missing and I do have to have a lot of fiber. But, with diabetes and this condition I have to watch my diet more closely or stay on the toilet all day and night. (It messes up my electrolytes taking out my minerals i.e.)
Start with the idea of organic whole grains, no sugar or very low or sweeten with real fruit. Other trade offs use other styles of grains or breads like pita i.e. (keep away from fake fibers and part white flour and part w/w. (not good for dieters) It's hard to find a good muffin like the one I buy at Wall mart. This link has some muffin's take we can make health. I can't always find, so I use this mix below; "Hodgson Mill" semi homemade recipe.
https://www.pinterest.com/hrymer/all-sorts-of-muffins/ I put the link here but it is hard to find a good ratio of fiber and proteins. However, in any muffin recipe you can add 1 - 1 half cups for brand to any recipe. Use the high soymilk protein and control the sugar to raisins, dates or other fruits. This muffin recipe is the best on the internet I found:



Low- Carb,  High- Fiber Bran Muffins (rich in omega 3 fatty acid)
BRAN MUFFINS BREAK DOWIN OF NUTRITENTS
High Fiber Cereals can be made into excellent muffin's
Hot cereals are good for fiber too (Red Mill) and last but not least is a organic grown grains of breakfast cold cereals with the 11 gram organic soy milk to start the morning.

Some Mornings a protein/veg breakfast: A vegetable omelet, Oh so good ! With a good herb breakfast tea. (This will last a long time: Chop your veggies, mushroom peppers, and red or green onion then freeze it all that day. Next morning unthaw pieces you want in your omelet, barely nook in some of the veggies in the microwave or skillet to thaw them out) Then add in some chopped basil or, hot sulsa i.e.) Top with sour cream and sliced tomato or avocado.
The point is watch for healthy food bargain's their everywhere.




EXAMPLE:
I couldn't get them Monday so I had to replace their values: DAVE'S BREAD, all organic; one slice has 5 grams of protein and 6 grams of fiber. He makes a variety, I buy the "POWERSEED." Yes, it has sugar, but its fruits. That's ok. www.DAVESKILLERBREAD.COM  he spent 15 years in prison and now owns a family business. Remarkable.
Their are other cheaper kinds of the same types of breads but Dave Dahl started it all. If I can find his bread at Wal Mart I get his. Bit More Costly but, so are his ingredients to make it.  I couldn't make it for that much.  I'm single so I freeze or refrigerate these costly threats.
Treat your self well, no one else will and remember your not a garbage can. Garbage causes bad health and weight gain. By the way, I only add the bread in my meals; IF I NEED a FIBER meal.
Here's an example of flourless (sprouted bread) I use period ally. (At the bottom is a semi home made one I've done)
 Not the best toast, but it's great on diets.
A 3:00 snack can be some bread mentioned above and the organic soymilk. Don't get hungry you'll over eat at meals. (Six mall meals is good)

5 Popcorn Idea's (New way to use this treat)

I eat a lot of popcorn on this diet. Keep on hand "Western Family PREMIUM BUTTERFLAVOR" cooking spray in place of butter. I don't like microwaved popcorn and prefer to pop it myself in coconut butter. Here' are some other ideas. As I understand, pop corn is not sprayed, in fact many
use ground fresh for corn bread and to make polenta




Great Pop Corn Snack (a fibrous Snack for dieters)
It’s all about adding more fiber and relieving hunger for between meals to compliment any good diet. This will help you to be prepared for those hungry times when you could get into wrong things. And beside the vegetable and fruit with dips we rotate from now and then for variety add in some needed grains with lots of fiber. One suggestion is to include popcorn in your diet every day. Have it plain and you'll never tire as easily.

Nibble all day or/and carry it with you during the day as a pre-breakfast, pre-dinner, pre-lunch your appetite controller and as a mid-evening mini-meal, i.e.
 
This will satisfy your hunger and prevent any panicky, impulsive teating’s. (I eat when I am hungry, small snacks during the day. Don't let your body starve; we, now,  know this puts on weight.)



One of my favorites reads was Diane Thornocks diet book, 2000+ calories. She was correct about her basic  dieting ideas but she got carried away with fads, "Low Fat" and her ideas about too much meats in every meal...by the way she died of cancer (young too) Her books and all those fads diet books are available at thrift stores. Low fat proven out to harm to children’s brain mentally abilities.

Then comes along the zone diet proving by adding the right fats to your diet your mind actually becomes un-fogged and by adding the right fats (omegas) the dieter can actually lose weight better. However, I'm not going to do your research in this area today.



The point I wanted to make with this in mind is its OK to eat, eat, eat, but watch out that it's quality, fibrous, complex organically grown whole grain foods i.e.. That means lots of legumes, fresh fruits and vegetables in all varieties and no chemicals. Even dairy shouldn’t have hormones and etc.


 You can eat a lot more quality foods, but not in the incorrect areas such as pre-boxed, packaged, pre-prepared and chemically treated, fake sugars, and sodas are all out. Because they don’t meet the first criteria of quality. Fresh and seasonal foods then balance it all out with variety. It’s not quantity so much but the quality. One person said not boxed nor packaged, well it make sense to me for the most part if you want to be a successful dieter.



Try different brands of popcorn but better if no GMO corn. It's all accumulative and chemicals and lack of nutrition adds up in our bodies. Bad nutrition, chemicals will catch up with us all and put on weight because it put the body in a starving mode. It lacks the essentials nutrients. So, eat, and be choosy! You not a garbage can.

Carry popcorn in your purse, in your car, to work, school, movie, sporting events and keep it with you at all times. A plastic zip bag is great and it keeps it fresh and tasty. Add raisins, nuts, darker chocolate +such if you need a change. If your popcorn doesn't look good and tasty, you're probably not hungry. Therefore you shouldn't eat popcorn or anything else for that matter until you are hungry.

Use Air-Poppers or on top of the stove in a two quart pan with a good tight lid. Make sure the coconut oil is hot before adding the popcorn. Or, use enough olive oil just covering one layer of popcorn then shake it once in a while then add sea salt. When using sea salt you’ll not need much and in add organic butter (no fat hormones which would defeats the whole purpose, or use Pam butter spray on top.



Get a paper bag add ¼ cup Organic popcorn, salt and a bit of oil and bingo you have microwave popcorn. Same directions as the store brand bag style, but with no chemicals.

Store in a plastic zip locked bag to keep it fresh. Make up enough to last the week, or day. NEVER use the microwave popcorn with too many added chemicals.



Add 1-2 Tb. of water in old UN popped/cooked corn and place in fridge to put back its moisture. I prefer the white popcorn with no kernels. Watch out; don't choke on the “old maids.”



This will facilitate clearing out your gastrointestinal tract through healthy regular bowel movements. Take advantage of the dry salty taste in taking of plenty drinking of good reverse osmosis lemon water while eating a rich  fiber-rich popcorn.
Evenings are weak times for snacks eating and maybe a good time to add some protein in (with 11 g protein in organic soymilk) to your evening . I always loose lots lbs my popcorn weeks.



You can add cut up veggies and fresh fruit with the organically grown popcorn. If faithful they will begin to say, You’re too thin!

OATMEAL, no flour cookies

This is my signature cookies recipe. I wanted more oatmeal and no flour, taste good and healthy.

 I finely found this recipe. In my other blog on this post alone I had about 2,600 hit before I turn it off "ShermsOrganicNews."

#No-Flour, Oatmeal Cookie (gluten, flour free/ allergies free if you use organic)
This is a no flour complex very high in fiber adaptable breakfast or a great pick me up snack recipe. Make this the best organic whole oatmeal cookies ever. So much better than the ones from from health food stores that have preservatives in them.


Also; you could substitute some of the organic whole oats to whole-wheat flakes or other grains when you get use to doing this recipe as is first. It's made a bit different. (Coconut, organic peanut butter and chocolate chip, carob and etc can be added in after, first, making it from the original recipe with tweets to your likings. This makes up a big batch for large families (freeze). You may prefer to ½ the recipe making smaller batches.


You will need baking paper, or two very good cookie sheet pans that will not brown the bottoms. They have to cool down in the pan, or slide off using your paper after being cool down a bit. The other pan will keep you baking while your first batch cools. They are delicate at this stage, depending on how long they are baked. As they can harden up and become crisp (which I like in this cookie. If not take them out a bit early) Note. to be a good cookie maker don't leave the kitchen, have a timer, and take them out a bit early to let them cook on top in their cookie sheet. (my style)




 My neighbors use to come to my house to get this cookie. I use to always have it on hand but then my daughter moved and I don't bake them much. It was her favorite cookie recipe.
I've taken a (Google image: oatmeal cookies,) I have no camera.  (If you spread about 1/4 thickness in a Pyrex baking dish  in the form of a loose hay-stacks with a lg ice cream scoop...or, you can make breakfast bars.)
If you use choc. chips don't add into the mix in you gal. jar letting the oil and oats and sugar macerate in but mix, or press them in just before baking.
It may be a good recipe to store and pass onto your next generation.
However, you may not want to share these gems. LOL



BEST Oatmeal Cookies (no flour) This originally came from the Seventh Day Adventist Magazine long ago, but this has been rendition/adaptions. The original had too much sugar. Always taste the dough to see if it sweet enough on all recipes. This had added in one more cup of sugar.
INGREDIENTS:
4 cups organically grown whole grain oats is best
1 or 1-3/4 cups dark brown sugar (or, to taste)
1 cup of pressed sunflower (or safflower oil ...it's the Tonalin CLA oil...) or, any Mono oil (even light olive oil.) Coconut oil? (no honey, it softens the cookie to much for me)
SET ASIDE IN : Let the above three ingredients needs to sit/stand for eight hours A must! in a gallon jar or big Tupperware bowl i.e. in
.......................................................................................
Next day... mix the following together.
2 well beaten organic eggs -to hold them together
½ teaspoon sea salt (high in magnesium, and less use of salt)
2 teaspoons almond extract
1-cup nuts (slivered or chopped almonds? -nut meat) I used slivered almonds
Use the smallest ice cream scoop (1/8') for dropping these "haystack" looking oats mounds on a cooking sheet and round together the edges where it will brown too much.
...............

Bake for about 10 minutes or, longer if you desire crispier cookies. They need to be first baked (abt 10 minutes at 350) and then cooled down; right on cookie sheets before removing them or they will break apart and the cookie will crumble.

Be patience they're well worth the wait. Some like these crispy, other prefer them medium. Also they will naturally crisp up in storage. (Half the recipe if its too much) They will not go to waste!
...................

Do not sub "diet sugars or high fructose types of sugars" I've done honey too...hu  mmmm ... don't care for the moist cookie effect. If you use a substitute for the egg, put it with the oats jar.
It's the egg and sugar that holds these together,

These cookies have to be soaked with the oil (olive oil works too); baked them but first cool them down then, remove from baking paper. This does the trick. You actually can use any oil, I prefer the mono-s (I know I am repeating, but some things need to be emphasized for a this style of cooked. 

.....................
This is another way to use any left-over's
**GRANOLA: Layer the mixture out on size of your lined baking paper or wax paper lined cookie sheet, (unless, you have pans that don't burn cookies on the bottoms) Then, slowly baking them at 250 for 40 minutes.
Or for a more crunchy bites up to 1 hr. depending on tray size, thickness and depends your oven temperature. The easiest way is just to crunch up the left-over cookies in milk, works great too. (Add in other ingredients, raisins, coconut etc as you get more proficient when using this recipe a lot...which I did .) They are so easy to make...
*Melt coconut oil or butter and use for the replacement of the safflower oil.

Peanut butter Cookies (no flour)

Try this no flour cake too made with coconut or almond flour (angel food cake)
