When Vernon Johnston was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer, his options were few. The standard treatment required him to submit to bouts of chemotherapy and hope that the poisonous drugs that will be fed into his body can kill off cancer cells faster that they can kill off healthy, normal cells. Chemotherapy represents a drastic measure that oncologists are all too eager to recommend and an option patients dread with good reasons. Often times, chemotherapy leaves the body drained and the immune system damaged. When it fails, and it does fail often, chemotherapy severely reduces the chances of success of any subsequent treatment options. Yet 9 out 10 cancer patients turn to chemotherapy first. In Vernon ’s case, the prostate cancer was already advanced and had metastasized to his bones. Chemotherapy would have been long and expensive and there was no guarantee that those drugs would work. So, Vernon took matters into his own hands. On his brother’s advice, V...

This is interesting. .. . Margarine was originally manufactured to fatten turkeys. When it killed the turkeys, the people who had put all the money into the research wanted a payback so they put their heads together to figure out what to do with this product to get their money back.

What is coconut sugar? I wonder how coconut sugar tastes like since this my first time to hear about this product. My friend explained that his family from the Philippines went to a seminar to learn how to process coconut nectar into sugar and send some for him to taste. Being hospitable as Filipinos do, he shared with us the blessing of receiving the coconut sugar to try and compare. It looks reddish maroon and very fine. The smell is so aromatic and boy, it was sweet and melts easy on my tongue. This is the sugar I loved, the ordinary sugar. He said that it takes two people to do the process because there is no stopping upon starting the process of stirring coconut juice until it forms into sugar. And it is a good start for small farmers who want to expand their expertise with coconut. I found out that coconut sugar is becoming a substitute for other fancy sugars such as sweeteners. Just knowing that coconut sugar has great taste and has low glycemic (Glycemic Index 35), it i...

So to help clarify, here are six important facts you need to know about oils and fats that will change the way you view this food category, and hopefully improve the health of you and your family: 1) Saturated fats are important for brain health.
