I went through that a few years ago but my mom unfortunately didn't have the attitude your mom has. Please be thankful for her positive attitude about food, which is really good. I have heard about that theory too, eating raw and fresh food. I personally think is great. Please say hi to her for me and you, recieve all my love. Gaby.

This is not news any of us want to hear. I agree with White on Rice's Todd that Vitamin C has been shown to be beneficial. Diet and attitude absolutely affect how a disease runs. Meditation has also been shown to be helpful.<br/>As far as your cholesterol is concerned, most research shows that eating cholesterol does not directly affect your cholesterol. Eating healthy and getting some activity keep the levels down. Eggs might actually be beneficial, not harmful, to the cholesterol level.<br/>Sorry, long reply. Send me email for more info. And you know I love beets! Brooke, sorry to hear about your mom. This is not news any of us want to hear. I agree with White on Rice’s Todd that Vitamin C has been shown to be beneficial.

I will try and dig up what she found. Our old naturapath cured her pre-cancerous tumors 20 years ago by drinking 6 raw fruit/veg smoothies a day - she was living mid west, and actually had to get organic produce flown in to her every few days! It worked though.<br/><br/>As regards cholesterol - from what I understand, modern research (not that from drugs companies..) has shown that eating foods high in cholesterol have little to no impact in your cholesterol level. Diets rich in whole grains and vegetables are key - olive oil is obviously great too. Fish is really awesome - but I wouldn't worry too much about eating cholesterol rich foods (unless you do 5 times a day...). Remove all trans and hydrogenated fats..<br/><br/>Certainly keep eating the chicken livers! Tons on nutrients in those. Keep eating eggs too!<br/><br/>I love beets just boiled, really thinly sliced, and topped with finely diced parsley and garlic - dress with olive oil and sherry vinegar. Doing a post on that next week actually.<br/><br/>Shout if you need anything. Thoughts are with you and your Mum.

There is so much depth to your posting and the accompanying photograph. Everything is important and we will touch each others lives in ways that we barely understand…

From my post on March 24th:

I’m sending your way lots of positive energy and thoughts, and if you need anything, feel free to let me know. My mom and I are both firm believers in the healing powers of acupuncture, so if you both don’t mind the needles, I say try it out in conjunction with your dietary changes. I wish you all the best!
