Keto Mag, Vitamin Sale & Immunity Boosting Yogurt


Awesome Keto Recipe Magazine is Back

All the recipes I've made from Delish Keto Comfort Foods--beef stroganoff, broccoli cheese soup, the mac & cheese shown on the cover, even bagels--have been fantastic. Every recipe is illustrated and includes nutrition information. You can buy the magazine at Walmart, Hudson News, Kroger, Walgreens, CVS, Publix, Target, Albertsons, Barnes & Noble, Dollar General, Walmart Canada, Paradies, Ahold Delhaize, Loblaw, Costco, Sam's Club, Meijer, Rite Aid, Sobeys, Wakefern, H E Butt Grocery, Wegmans, HY Vee Food Stores, Costco Canada, and Giant Eagle, but I found it yesterday at Fresh Thyme Market.

Supplement Sale at Fresh Thyme

Yogurt for Viral Respiratory Illnesses

I'm reposting Dr. Davis's recipe for shirota yogurt, made with L. casei Shirota bacteria shown in clinical trials to be effective against viral respiratory illnesses. I've eaten it myself when I've had colds and found that I felt better. It's easy to make: three ingredients mixed together and fermented for 36 hours. If you don't have a yogurt maker, an insulated grocery bag or camper cooler and a heating pad set on high will do. From the Inner Circle site,

This species/strain provides unique immune system-boosting effects, particularly effective against viral respiratory illnesses. There are three human clinical trials that demonstrate that intake of this microbe, 100 billion CFUs per day, reduces potential for viral illnesses by around 50% and, should you develop a viral illness, the illness is abbreviated by 50%. Because this effect appears to require high bacterial counts and the commercial source of the bacterial species/strain provides only 6.5 billion per bottle (sold as a product called Yakult), our prolonged fermentation with prebiotic fibers provides the higher numbers for this effect. The Yakult product is also a non-fat milk sweetened with sugar, all the more reason to ferment in our preferred media (higher fat dairy with no added sugar).

Homemade yogurt maker.


Dr. Davis's video called Boost your Viral Immunity is available to the public and includes the recipe to make the yogurt. Yakult has a product locator here. Look for the product with the yogurts at the store.

Carrageenan: A Sickening Thickener. Is it a Migraine Menace?

Let me tell you about my ride in an ambulance last night. I woke up at six o'clock from a nap with a mild headache. I ate dinner and took my vitamins, along with a couple of extra magnesium pills. Since magnesium helps my TMJ flare-ups, I thought it might help my headache. Then I went to see my mother. A few hours later, I had a severe headache, sinus pain and nausea. During a brief respite from the pain, I left for home, but less than a mile later, I got out of my car and threw up. A cop, Officer Fisher, pulled up behind me and asked if I was okay. He believed me when he said I hadn't been drinking, but he said I seemed lethargic and he wanted the paramedics to see me. (Later he mentioned that a man he'd recently stopped was having a stroke.) Thinking I had a migraine headache, the paramedics wanted to take me to the hospital. But since I knew that doctors don't know what causes migraine headaches, and I didn't know what effect their medicine would have on m...

1972: Carole King, M*A*S*H and...Food for 2014?

I feel well enough to try Atkins induction again. The palpitations are gone, even without taking potassium. My energy level is back to normal--no more trucking on the treadmill early in the morning  to burn off nervous energy or emergency meat, cheese and mineral water stops after yoga. It's back to lounging around to Chopin and Debussy in the morning and stopping at the wine bar for pleasure. I'm using the original Atkins book: Dr. Atkins' Diet Revolution from 1972. While looking in the book for a way to make gelatin (which is allowed on induction, but Jello(TM) and products like it have questionable ingredients), I felt the earth move under my feet : those recipes from 42 years ago look delicious and they're mostly real food. It makes sense, though: the cooks who wrote the recipes probably didn't have had a palette used to low-fat food full of added sugar or a bag of tricks to make low-fat food edible. Anyone who writes a recipe called "Cottage Cheese and...

In Defense of Fast Food

Another modern trend - healthy food should be expensive, not nutrients-dense and preferably exotic, or you would be eating like plebs who live on a dollar McD menu. --Galina L. I don't try to jump over seven-foot hurdles, I look for one-foot hurdles I can step over. --Warren Buffett, pleb who eats at McDonald's Despite all the talk about wild-caught v. farmed, grass-fed v. CAFO and the vilification of fast food, a lot of us plebs benefit simply from carbohydrate restriction. But even though diabetes and obesity are rampant, and carb restriction alone would help millions of people, the impression is out there that you need to eat in a very specific way, far beyond just watching the carbs. Following a low-carb diet is already a high hurdle for many people. If some people want or need to raise the bar for themselves, that's fine with me, but there's no need to turn low-carb into a hurdle that a lot of people can't jump over. Organic produce and grass-fed or p...

My New Favorite Sweetener

If you're looking for a low-carb sweetener with no aftertaste, no franken-ingredients, and that doesn't upset your stomach, try monk fruit (also known as luo han guo). This is what Quest bars were sweetened with when they first came out. Monk fruit is Dr. Davis approved. You can buy monk fruit in powdered or liquid form; both are super-concentrated. They might seem expensive, but you use the powder by the spoonful (even in baking recipes) and the liquid by the drop. The baking recipes I've made with the powder have turned out well. Available from Amazon . Beware monk fruit sweeteners with erythritol.  The package of powdered monk fruit sweetener I bought says, "Use 1/8 teaspoon to create the same sweet taste as 1 teaspoon of sugar." But it's so sweet that I use 1/10 the amount. To replace a cup of sugar, I would use 5 teaspoons of monk fruit sweetener. Tip: hand-stir this in before using the beaters. It's such a fine powder that it flies up and out of the ...
