"Where Do You Get Your Protein?"

Whole plant foods contain every single essential amino acid for human health and growth.

That is because plants make all 20 amino acids [SOURCE] [SOURCE 2]therefore we obtain all 20 when we eat them, including the 8 (some say 9 now) essential ones. Humans and animals are only able to synthesize 12 of the 20 amino acids and need to obtain the rest from plants or animals (who intially obtained all their essential amino acids from plants)

When eating plants, you don't need to worry about getting "complete protein". And it's not necessary to combine specific protein foods at one sitting to make a complete protein. This is a myth as current science has now proven. All plant based foods have varying amounts of protein and the body will combine proteins from all sources, to get all the "complete protein" that it needs.

A Reminder: Perfection is Never Real

This is my reminder never to feel inadequate when you look at photos of "perfect" people.

because perfection is never real.

Whether it is heavy airbrushing, zapping zits, brightening eyes, contouring or more aggressively removing some unwanted back fat and pushing the eyes two inches apart so that the face appears more doll like- it happens.

Images are nipped and tucked and shaded and brightened and trimmed and filled out and flattened and rounded and smoothed, down to the last hair on the stomach and the veins in the hands. In the end, we see a reflection of someone not even the model can claim as their own.

On an Indian reserve in Canada, surrounded by dozens of pollution-spewing chemical plants, girls rule the day-care centers, the playgrounds, the sports teams. The reason: For the past 15 years, fewer and fewer boys are being born.

Once there was a boys hockey team on the reservation.

No longer. There aren't enough boys.

Treat Your Candida Successfully



Candida is the short name used to describe yeast overgrowth in the body.

The technical term is Candidiasis. Like their “cousins” the molds, they live all around us. One family “Candida Albicans” lives in all mucus membranes, i.e. intestines, eyes, ears, bladder, stomach, lungs, vagina, etc. It is one of the billions of friendly organisms that serve a useful purpose in the body. One of its important functions is to recognize and destroy harmful bacteria. However, candida is not intended to overgrow and get out of control while the body is alive.
