Tumeric is an excellent anti-inflammatory. It can be added to a glass of warm milk. Heating the milk activates tryptophan which can also help you relax. Tryptophan is also in dark meat on turkey. Peppermint essential oil can be applied to nerves in neck and shoulders or temple area to deaden the pain.

PS Magnesium malate or magnesium citrate powder will not give you the runs. I use the ionic magnesium ditrate powder by Calm or the Sisu mag. caps in 250 mg. My doctor recommended a 1000mg a day as most everyone is mag. deficient. Other forms of magnesium will give you the runs.Take 250mg at four different intervals during the day not all at once.

I was looking for a plant to grow for oil to cook with . Any ideas ? I have Walnuts- which are great for salads but not for frying.



I'm not Joseph, but I'll weigh in. I don't have first-hand knowledge yet, but from my research sunflowers seem like a good bet. Easy to grow and process, decent oil yields, can take some heat. Piteba has really good information on individual nuts and seeds for oil production.




I have started cooking in avocado oil. It can take high heat, but I find you still have to take care your food doesn't stick to the pan. It's possible I don't use enough as I am not a fan of oily food.

Amaranth is a super food like Quinoa (although Quinoa is the only alkaline grain) and can be cooked in porridge, stews, soups, or cooled and made into a salad.
