Good pans for cooking

Forums: 

Um I hope this is OK that I am asking about pans on here... but mine are so bad, and since I do so much cooking right now, I need to get a set of some good ones, as far as a skillet. So does anyone have any recommendations for good pans that last that aren't really expensive? I would like to order of of overstock.com if anyone knows of some good ones on there or anywhere else. I had bought a set for 150 about 8 months ago, and they are already so bad!

Thanks

Emotional Die-Off

Forums: 

People on here have mentioned emotional die-off.  For a while I thought this probably refered to dealing with emotioinal problems as you heal, just from having to deal with this problem.  Then, I thought maybe it refered to die-off just messing with your emotions.  Is the term is more literal?  The last few days I've just been crying all the time, I feel drained and like the life's been sucked out of me.  I dont have an appetite and i'm nautious.

Packaged Salads

Forums: 

A couple of weeks ago there was a segment on our local news about packaged salad.  This was not a recall.  Consumer's Reports had an independent lab test packaged salads for contaminants.  They found bacteria, specifically enterococcus and coliform, in a high percentage of the packages tested.  I was using these packaged salads frequently because of the convenience.  Not anymore.  Here is the write up of the segment taken from Channel 27's web site:

Shrimp

Forums: 

Does anyone know what it means when Shrimp is "farmed"

I have been eating it a lot because I like it, its pretty reasonably priced at Costco, and it does not bother my bladder.

How do I know if there is mercury or toxins in it though??

Does anyone know how to pick safe shrimp? 

Stevia

Forums: 

Does anyone know why this is not allowed?  I did some research on it and found that bacteria and yeast will not live off it like they do sugar or other sweeteners.  Once in a while I use pure stevia in tea and it doesnt seem to bother me. Just wondering why its not allowed.

oil of oregano

Forums: 

Is there any one out there who lives in europe and uses oil of oregano?
I do and i took it back with me when i was in LA, but i can't seem to find the right one over here, i now have a much stronger one, and reduce the dose, but i would like to be sure that i have the right one.
I there is any one where did you order it?

Thanks

Candida in the Brain!

Forums: 

   I think my Candida has spread to my brain. I'm listening to myself read this post, and I know what you are all thinking. I sound totally neurotic: Fruit loops! I'm writing this anyways because maybe someone else out there has noticed this connection or will after reading this. I have suspected this for a long time, but I have some more confirmations lately. For years I used to have horrible sinus infections and was routinely given antibiotics for the sinus infections. It would get so bad they would x-ray my head and show me how bad the congestion was in the x-ray.
