I suffered with migraines for over 30 years. I was diagnosed as cluster migraines. Life was miserable and then I went online and read about msg and other additives in food. Also one in ice cream that is really bad. Long story short after giving up ice cream and all bought canned or packaged food I am now headache free.

qulitergirl, i am betting if everyone did this we would all be in better health. my mother made all food from scratch. and i did the same when we had no money. and still do mostly now. i eat 2 huge huge tossed salads with lettuce, tom and cukes and celery and put lemon juice and olive oil on it iwth salt. then i eat some proteins like a few slices of cheese and/or a piece of chicken. this is my diet.

quilt somany companies would be out of business if we all ate that healthy but farmers would love it
10:37 am

we are allergic to many foods and many additives. what is most upsetting is that our water and soil is so polluted that even eating chicken is dangerous due to what they eat and drink.
10:37 am

Many of my migraines are weather-triggered--incoming rainstorms, so I cannot control those.
10:37 am
MLFAN17

mkg do you take vitamins?
10:38 am
Quiltergirl

I agree back to basics and the healthy food. My mother too made all food from scratch and I do too. We do need to be aware of what's in our food.
10:38 am

so the people working for the companies would go to work for the lettuce companies instead. or the shippers.

i eat a TON of cooked broccoli and spinach and cauliflower and onions and mushrooms as well as lots of olives and pickles which are great for health. did you know olives are full of anti oxidents and my hubby says everyone should eat at least 12 olives a day to stay healthy? he has analyzed them and he thinks they can stop the progression of diseases and ageing.

11:05 am

i've taken him off royal canin, all grains - tried hypoallergenic brand Fromm, but it was hard to get, so now on Acana hypoallergenic
11:05 am

that's what baxter was eating, too - but there's grain in it and i was desperate to try anything
11:06 am

he's still taking vanectyl (and benadryl on bad days).

9:10 pm
Aloyisius

a goat? LOL.. that must be an experience! They all get along?
9:11 pm
jesdraggon

yeah, i've had the goat since she was 2 weeks old (about 6 months now), and raised her in the house with the dog
9:11 pm
jesdraggon

She's sleeping in front of the couch with the corgi right now
9:12 pm
Aloyisius

wow.. am picturing that.. is the goat housebroken?
9:13 pm
jesdraggon

mostly. she's only got about 3 hours between having to go out though, so she has to sleep outside at night, so that I can get some sleep.
9:14 pm
jesdraggon

I can send you a picture if you like
9:15 pm
Aloyisius

cool, I'll put my email on my profile in a bit, ty.. what is the goat's name and are you raising it for a purpose or just as a pet?
9:16 pm
