Hello ladiesssssssss....

Anyone ever have heartburn on the oreganol/goldenseal concoction?  It seems like shortly after I take it, I am getting some awful heartburn. Don't know why that would happen but wanted to see if it was happening to anyone else.

I have come to the realization that I do not tolerate any packaged food.  I tolerate brown rice, but not rice cakes.  I tolerate some potato but not potato chips, I can't do anything processed in any way.

I started making my own rice cakes.

I make 1 cup of brown rice and let it cool.

I mix it with an egg and olive oil.  I would say I mix most of it, but not all of the rice.

I make it into round patties and put in on a baking pan.

I bake it at 425 for 23-30 minutes.

I put REAL salt on it.

For the past few weeks my face looks inflamed, all red.  Not pimples so much, but more like colorless bumps especially on my forehead...

This disease is SO UGLY in SO many ways.

Anyway, Does anyone else have this?  Is it die off?  

Maybe I am just getting old..lol

Has anyone else had any difficulties with Raquel in Matia's office???

I am getting soooo frustrated. My first visit to Matia was on 10.28.09 and it is still not paid by insurance because they want a w-9 so they can have Matia's tax id in order to process the visit. 

What kinds of meats is everyone eating? I am just curious. Like as far as how much red meat, fish or chicken a week? I just read Matia's old post on tilapia and was disapointed. It is so good, and affordable. But I guess that should tell you something : /
I am worried that I eat too much red meat right now... even though I usually get all my red meat from whole foods. I eat it as much as 4-5 times a week. I also eat fish and chicken, and shrimp maybe once a week.

Thanks

  I took Dr. Shen's Zong Gan Ling from iHerb today for a cold.  When I read the bottle it said this product contains lead which is known to cause brith defects and reproductive problems.  The herb was manufactured in California.  I am going to order Plum Flower Zong Gan Ling from Matia instead.  Hopefully, I saved some of you from making the same mistake.

I know for some of us just daily tasks are a chore. I am wondering if any of you have a pedometer and if you know how many steps your taking in a day? I know I don't move much and I would like to have a goal set in mind. I am not sure whats realistic. I don't move enough but it's like I will walk for 10 min and need to lay down. I do the dishes and I am cashed out. I have NO stamina. I am depressed about it I need to get out and I don't know how i can when i can hardly walk for long. SO I want to hear from you active or not. Do you know how much you move.

Ok so in the past ordering herbs it didn't seem to matter how many herbs I order at a time it was always the same price do you all know if that is still the case? I just ordered herbs and it was only 15.33 never been that low although in the past few orders I have been ordering 3 bottles and I know the web page has changed I wonder if the policy is different? Anyone know this. I hate to call the office again I have already called 2x today.

Hello,
Has anyone purchased the book?   I live in a different state and I am wondering if the book goes into detail about root causes and what the actual content is about? Like all of us we have to be selective about how we apply our funds, many of us are not working.  I think this book will provide a connection to the Dr. that will be something I can depend on in times of desperation for hope in addition to this forum. The support here is amazing and I am so grateful to have all you lovely ladies to chat with.

I was pondering today about food again. I don't give two hoots about eating anymore and am sick I am of checking everything. I hate cooking but what would inspire me was if ICAMA put together a proper IC cookery book. Ok so i'm a fussy cow...I don't like trawling through the net for recipes it would be nice if they were all in one book then my other half could follow them. Sorry just moaning to myself. Again lol!
