“Just re-align your chakras with some deep breathing and focusing on your inner eye.”

One of the unusual things Moon Juice produces is Cordyceps, alleged to have the effect of “boosting the immune system.” Thing is, what the actual fungus genus Cordyceps is most famous for is turning ants into zombies; members of the genus parasitize insects and alter their behavior. On top of that, C. subsessilis…

This is just fucking horrible. It leaves a huge knot in my stomach. Since Kayden had Aspergers it is likely that in the midst of a meltdown he wouldn’t have been able to fully understand the ramifications of his actions. It is also possible that he could have just completely shut out anything the officers were saying…

Fearing for your safety isn’t a good enough reason to end a life, to me. It’s way too vague; it could mean the cops were afraid they’d get cut, maybe even need some stitches, or break a bone. But that’s part of police work, you might get cut or break a bone. The only time it should be acceptable to end a life is when…

I am not vegan and will probably never be vegan, but zucchini ribbons marinated in olive oil and lemon juice are BOMB as a salad. Italians call it crudo. They also would likely eat it as a part of a meal that included some kind of protein that did not come in powder form.

According to Master Google: Activated nuts have been soaked in water and salt for a period of time, which starts off the germination or sprouting process, then dehydrated at a low temperature. Soaking increases the nutrient value of the nuts along with breaking down the problematic compounds that help enhance their…

Interestingly a lot of them seem to claim the healthy eating was part of their recovery from anorexia. They've definitely swapped anorexia for orthorexia but still vast improvement I guess??

I take most restrictive diets as cover for eating disorders.

It also looks like she’s consuming 800 calories all day.

i think most of the healthy lifestyle internet people have major disorder eating habits that are most likely full blown eating disorders.

I lost it at “activated cashews.”

In the interest of balance, I am going to rub a chicken with a paste of butter, garlic and smoked paprika, and roast it. I shall serve it with dumplings, Brussels sprouts, and bacon. And wash it down with wine.

While the food itself doesn’t seem that appealing, I’m more astounded at what seems to be endless prep work for relatively small meals.

I don’t get the damn copper cups nonsense. It’s even stupider than the mason jar garbage. I was served mulled cider in a copper cup and, duh, the cup and handle were too hot to hold for about 20 minutes because copper is conductive. I also went to a bar last year and was served a cocktail in a ‘re-purposed’ tin can.…

But don’t you get it, man?! The FDA is in the pockets of Monsanto/Big Pharma/Big Food/Big Metals/the Periodic Table/the RAND Corporation/Colonel Sanders/Academia!!!1! They have a vested interest, man!!! Everything they say about “heavy metal toxicity” and “renal failure” and “hemolysis” is a lie!!!

Fuuuuuck, I forgot to activate my cashews and the cashew activation place is closed on the weekend!

Every health nut on earth is saying to drink out of copper cups. The FDA recommends against it, especially hot beverages. I’m throwing in with the people who know something about how the body works.

And like...there was very little protein among all the weird shit she mostly just drank. The zucchini noodle meal sounded like a perfectly reasonable and normal vegan meal, but all that other crap she fermented and mixed together and spiked with other weird crap...no.

Nonsense. If she had one or two food products I had never heard of, then I would look them up and learn. But someone whose entire daily diet consists of ‘stuff no one has heard of’ served in copper cups is trying hard to compose a diet solely of things no one has ever heard of. And that’s pretty mockable. I honestly…

I mean...good for her if this is working for her. But it seems pretty freaking disordered to me. I mean...none of this stuff is delicious, maybe with the exception of the zucchini noodles.
