ARCHIVED Omg...i Might Be On To Something
Rachel--24 replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Rinne....questioning stuff is something I'm really familiar with. I can relate to you there. I'm not sure if its swallowing the filling or the fact that whats left in your mouth isnt intact and most likely leaking higher amounts of mercury. I think it would be the latter which would be more damaging in the long run. I left mine alone for 2 years... -
ARCHIVED Poll:cut Or Wear Your Hair How You Want?
Rachel--24 replied to LoveBeingATwin's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
I've always had long hair.....the shortest I go is to my shoulders. My hair grows fast and I dont really like it too long but I'm sometimes too lazy to get it cut. Earlier today it was half way down my back...I finally got sick of it and now its a little past my shoulders. I do what I want with my hair. I dont think anyone I've been with has... -

Donna, BOO for molds!! BOO-HOO for getting multiple mold treatments! Stupid mold! Yeah...we are in the moldy girls club.....this is a club I dont want to stay in. I hope I can abandon the fungus ASAP. Check this out!! I got home and my cat had barfed on the carpet.....which is always such a treat to come home to... -

Yeah....this ones looks intriguing. I definately wouldnt have liked 300 with all battle and no story to at least keep me somewhat entertained. Even the 300 shirtless guys wouldnt have made me want to suffer through it. -

I dunno. I kind of doubt it because when I was getting day sweats it didnt matter if I went into the freezer or splashed water on my face...or got half naked. The sweat was coming off me no matter what. -

Yeah....go figure! The one time I decide to indulge a tiny bit....I end up with sugary popcorn. I'm sure the candida was loving it....even if I wasnt. -

Yeah....Rinne brought up nightsweats and we all shared our "sweating" stories. Rinne was wanting to know what causes them and why they happen at night...why not during the day?? -

Thats the movie I wanted to see!! I like romantic comedy's the best and I also love Drew Barrymore. My friend had already seen it though. Oh....some guy at my work was telling me I should go see 300. I had no idea what it was about. I asked my friend if we should go see it. My friend said "You would HATE that movie....its a guy movie... -

NGG, I think Carla was saying that Malaria and Babesia are similar.....and that some of the treatments used for Malaria are also used for Babesia. I dont think she was suggesting I have Malaria though?? GREAT....yet another thing to ponder. J/K....I dont think I have Malaria. I wont worry about it just yet....I'll save that one for... -

OMG....I'm totally "lost" like that on a bad day. I cant get my thoughts organized and my brain gets "stuck". The most simple thing can get confusing as heck. What movie did you see?? I LOVE the movies. Last weekend I saw "Zodiac"....it was a good movie. I told my friend to get a small bag of popcorn.....that I might want to eat a few... -

Tim...are you skimming the posts or are you reading them?? Here is my resonse to you... This is what I wrote....how did I leave out "pure" to change your point?? I addressed what you said and did not change it in any way. MSG is MSG.....the more its processed...the more dangerous it becomes. Since the American diet is mainly fast food... -

You dont know what Fruit By The Foot is?? Its like fruit roll-ups....Fruit By The Foot is probably loaded with unhealthy stuff....except its FRUIT...so its healthy right?? This is something I would have thought a few years back. A healthy lunch would be Lunchables, flavored yogurt, a sandwhich on WHEAT bread, milk and definately Fruit By The... -

This is simply not true. You cannot say that we all have "thresholds" and then decide that for *most* people that threshold is anything more than 2-3 cigarettes. Its not logical....especially considering second hand smoke kills plenty of people every year. Obviously for these people their threshold was reached at zero cigarettes per day. This can happen... -

There is absolutely no way any study can determine a threshold. The threshold for you and I would not be the same. In no way can any public data accurately determine a "safe" threshold or cumulative effects vs. short term effects. This simply cannot be done. Things that are toxic to the body and can potentially cause disease cannot be "quantified". You... -

Yes....and this is what I posted earlier. Genetically we are all different. Some people are more capable of detoxing neurotoxins than others. Mycotoxins (toxins produced by mold) for example...these can cause serious health problems for those who are genetically susceptible to these toxins. I assume this would apply to MSG as well....some people are... -

Rinne....YEAH.....that car is totally me. Its not Lyme green but I could always get that done later if the monster comes out of the closet. Dunno. That would be a good thing though...right??

Yeah...I heard of him!! The story is in one of my Candida books. Everyone thought he was alcoholic......even his wife would search the house trying to find his "stash". He never drank......he would get drunk after he ate his pasta!! He would stumble and slur his words and act just the same as if he were alchoholic. Finally a smart Dr. figured it out... -

I think I probably looked like this alot during the first two years I was sick. Especially for a period of about 6 months where I rarely left the house. My mom said when I first started staying here I never talked.....unless it was to snap at her. When we were in the car I would just sit there. I didnt talk and I certainly didnt smile. . She said I... -

Yeah....I loved Susans posts. Personally, I loved it when the thread had the "pajama party" feel to it. I think we all know what that led to....up to 20 pages a day!! Then I was getting pm's asking "What happened to the thread....too much silliness, etc." Then we slow things down and get back to the health issues and then I get pm's asking... -

I dont know what she got...she did see Dr. Derksen and I'm sure she didnt leave empty handed....but still. The BioSET lady said she was sick like me and I know I wouldnt be OK with just one visit and some meds. She needs alot more than that. I cant believe I am now Racheling my treatments. -

Yeah...some people are unhappy with alot of "nonsense" and then not happy without it. Cant please everyone all of the time and some people cant be pleased period. Once the thread goes off topic people start talking about having to delete posts which are "chit-chat" and all kinds of drama starts. I prefer to keep the thread mostly on track... -

Ha-Ha!! But I didnt compare....the BioSET lady did. I was not too happy about the comparison .....and even less happy that as she said it she was bringing in the Lyme Disease Panel. I was thinking "Heck...are we still thinking I have Lyme??" Apparantly she doesnt know about the closet. I did ask how this girl is gonna get better...
