Diary of a Woman Part VII

A continuation of rolling back the clock and regaining health, energy
and being in the best condition of your life.
Last month I told you about (live, fermented, probiotic-
rich food and supplement with homeostatic soil
organisms) and asked, "What the heck is THAT??"
I did a google on those exact words and came up with
Hallelujah Acres .. I've written to them to them, and
guess what? NOTHING! No email back what-so-ever...
so I've done another search and found a blog: Eating

Jordan's Tip
From the author of "The Maker's Diet"
Go Wild for Wild Salmon
With the rising popularity of salmon, more and more distributors, grocery chains, and
restaurants have turned to farm-raised salmon to meet demand, which is contrary to the
Maker's design for salmon. Research has shown that the omega-3 fatty acids so abundant
in ocean-caught salmon are changed into omega-6 fatty acids when they are farm-raised,
which creates an imbalance of these nutrients for your body. Always ask for ocean-caught
salmon — especially the varieties from cold Alaskan waters, which offer a healthful balance
of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids.
When buying salmon, be sure that it smells and looks fresh. If it has a sour or fishy odor or is discolored, don't buy it! In terms of
preparation, fresh salmon should be cooked the same day, but it can be stored in the refrigerator for one or two days. Frozen salmon
will keep in the freezer for three to six months.

raised on farm fresh milk? I don't know and I don't believe anyone can say for certain, but I'm still glad to have grown
up in the country.
So, let's say you're a city person, with no gardening skills, no soil to play in and can't stand the outdoors.... What do
you do? From what I've been gathering there are supplements that can be taken to increase the 'good' bacteria in
your body... There are suggestions of these types of foods as well: "liberal amounts of cultured or fermented foods
including yogurt, kefir, and sauerkraut"
Some of the problems that can be created due to the lack of balance of good vs bad microorganisms are: "diarrhea,
constipation, irritable bowel syndrome, colon cancer, allergies, vaginitis, hypoglycemia, food cravings, lack of mental
clarity, increased susceptibility to infection, and many other health conditions."
As always, talk to your doctor about live, fermented, probiotic-rich food and homeostatic soil organisms... to get his or
her advice. I'm learning right along with you so when you hear something that you'd like to share about your
experiences with this subject, feel free to email us here at Welcome Home My Florida! We'd love to hear what you're
learning.
I've just emailed my favorite supplements group, TRIVITA To see what they have to say and I'll report back just as
soon as I receive a response.

world, but after World War II these natural soil organisms were displaced as a result of
chemical farming and pesticide usage by commercial agribusiness. Today, America's soil is
essentially sterile because pesticides and herbicides kill virtually every microorganism they
touch, both bad and good. This is similar to the overuse of medical antibiotics that has
reduced the human gut to a barren landscape because antibiotics kill the good bacteria
along with the bad. For most of us, our overly sterile environment has practically severed our
healthy relationship to the soil and has seriously weakened our immune system." Posted by

So guess what you can do to boost your levels of good microorganisms?... Gardening...
Camping out... Hiking in the woods... Anything that gets your fanny out the door and into the
soil. It makes sense... I mean after all, my generation grew up outside the walls of the
house... Not confined to a tv and a remote control. My particular family lived on the farm
where we were confronted with, I'm sure, microorganisms that would literally kill a city kid in a
heartbeat, but my doctor has always been amazed at my health. He often reminds me that
because of my growing up in the country, I'm seeing better health than most. He also told me
that I'd be 135 before osteoporosis even thought of coming into my body because my bone
density test was the highest he's ever seen. Could it be that way because we were
