I've been overcoming a little illness. My job has a huge air conditioner that blast freezing air into the atmosphere and I developed a cough. A week later, I got chest congestion . My Doctor told me that the air conditioner was causing dryness in my lungs. The constant cough was the result. He suggested I sleep at night with a humidifier to add moister back into my lungs. I feel like I'm sleeping in the Amazon Jungle at night but I'm not coughing as much. I added deep breathing exercises to help. My condition is improving. Still can't turn on the air conditioner in my apartment. Every day a thermos of hot tea or water is with me. I'm going to research for herbs or holistic treatment to build up my lung organs. I'm grateful it wasn't an infection or a cold.
Other things are happening to me to keep me on my toes. My old food allergies are surfacing. Back in 2000 I took an Food-Reaction IgG test. It a test to find out what foods are causing allergies or how the combination of food react when mixed together. My immune system was so weak at the time. I was placed on a rotation diet. Every thing I ate, including the spices and condiments were designed for how my body digest them. Whether you have food allergies or not, a rotation diet has many benefits. The top four are - preventing food addictions and allergies. Adding a variety of fresh nutrients and unprocessed foods. The saturated and trans fatty acids, sodium and refined sugars are cut down. Lastly, It can prevent and often correct digestive problems.
I'm converting this Rotation Diet into Raw Foods. It is taking a little work to balance what I need to eat. I'm giving my body a chance to balance itself out. I'm ready to take on the New for the next four weeks.
I made a Raw Food Spinach and Yellow Squash soup. The taste was not bad , I ate three bowls of it then remembered I didn't add any salt.
What else I've been up to ..............I got the new Alissa Cohen Book . By next month I'll be able to handle preparing two or three recipes a week. I will take a peek at a few recipes this month. Her book is easy to read and so much fun to follow. The ends results are always best for the body.
I felt like pink and teal today. I added a Leopard print sash with the outfit. Every thing is vintage
I wish I could wear vintage shoes but my width is too wide.
Peace and light to You.
