Adrenal Tumor, Advice on supplementation Options

[Flex]

Oh btw, I also suggest everyone watch the documentary Forks Over Knives. Especially you Phi! It will save you a lot of time reading a bunch of science garbage, and give you the facts. The best part is, you can test it yourself. What more could you ask for?

I enjoy reading the science garbage, I just don't happen to comment much when it comes to that since I'm satisfied with it. Why did you pick me for watching this though?

This is a thread about an adrenal tumor right? Food is more powerful than any supplement, just a reminder. I know you are on top of your nutrition, but maybe you could help her find some better choices.

as i have... but shes very stuck in her ways. she has excuses for not eating lots of different healthy things, thats why im asking about the supplement route

[aethor]

maybe you would be better of learning yourself methods that will help you convince her to eat healthier? possibly it isn't worth the effort?

Try and get her to watch Forks Over Knives It is worth a try at least.

If having an adrenal tumor haven´t convinced her i reckon there is very little he can try appart of brainwashing.

Well some people don't understand or have never experienced the connection between eating healthy and feeling well. They have no clue what healthy food and a healthy mind can do for your body.

jakare just about has the gist of it, although the process will just take a while to change her habits. its always good to help supplement changes though

This past week, I've enjoyed the new additions of milk into my diet. Trader Joe's FTW!
Soy was alright.
Almond tasted the best.
Coconut Milk had no taste, but still good.

Also switched over to organic cow milk..

Coconut milk sucks--coconut water on the other hand! Tons of potassium, good stuff.

Just had a chance to watch Forks Over Knives. Great documentary but I am still skeptical over milk. I think more studies need to be done on whether the benefits outweigh the negatives.

Cool paper. Didn't get a chance to research some of the finer points, but it seems to me like there may be some sort of ability of EGCG and curcumin to form a sort of "ion-like" pair, via extensive hydrogen bonding to yield a molecule which appears more hydrophobic, and thus able to cross membranes more easily. Looking at the two molecules, I can sort of imagine a Buckyball like structure forming Cool stuff! Reminds me of another little membrane transport molecule that can do something similar--carnitine.

raw organic milk is bad for you because our body has gotten used to the milk filled with preservatives and chemicals.. thats why taking raw milk rresults in a bad experience..
