Best Versus Worst Oils To Cook With Live Free, Live Natural When cooking with oils, you want an oil that will not be damaged by high cooking temperatures. Oils contain monounsaturated fatty acids, polyunsaturated fatty acids, and saturated fatty acids. There are many myths about the healthiest oil to use, but most do not take into consideration what happens when the oil is heated. For example, olive oil is claimed as being one of the healthiest oils. Some of the healthier oils may contain low levels of polyunsaturated fats, but may contain higher levels of saturated fats. Now, on to the dangerous aspect of oils, polyunsaturated fatty acids. Omega 3 and 6 are also polyunsaturated fatty acids. The list below show oils and their respective polyunsaturated fatty acid percentage. It is okay to eat small to moderate amounts of raw organic nuts and seeds such as cashews, pecans, filberts, macadamia nuts, almonds, walnuts, and chia. The best oils are the ones with the lowest polyunsaturated fat percentage. Sources:

Microwave Test – an eye opener Below is a Science fair project presented by a girl in a secondary school in Sussex. In it she took filtered water and divided it into two parts. The first part she heated to boiling in a pan on the stove, and the second part she heated to boiling in a microwave. Then after cooling she used the water to water two identical plants to see if there would be any difference in the growth between the normal boiled water and the water boiled in a microwave. She was thinking that the structure or energy of the water may be compromised by microwave. As it turned out, even she was amazed at the difference, after the experiment which was repeated by her class mates a number of times and had the same result. It has been known for some years that the problem with microwaved anything is not the radiation people used to worry about, it’s how it corrupts the DNA in the food so the body can not recognize it. Microwaves don’t work different ways on different substances. 1). 2). 3). 4). 5). 6). 7). 8). 9).
On the other end of a Craigslist ad After the Victorian wardrobe salvage saga… After spending four hours in an unheated building. After ripping apart a wall with a toothpick. After loading and unloading a truck until nearly midnight… Paul told me to stop looking on Craigslist for a while. I nodded and pretended like he was the one who made such decisions. Then I went and looked on Craigslist. Now. 1. There are lots, and lots, and lots of mirrors in the antique-listings on craigslist. So I closed the tab… and told myself it was nothing. But a few weeks later, I saw it again… and the primordial-mirror-troll that lives in my head said: you should find out what that is. And I was like—look, mirror-troll: A. And the mirror-troll said— What if it’s fancy? So I emailed the guy. Did you read that? Did you read it closely? Is there any description that could possibly be more appealing to me than something that looks like a KINGDOM? No. The mirror-troll was like— S.C.O.R.E. The mirror-troll said—I bet it’s not that big. I was like– word.
Viewpoint: Is gap year volunteering a bad thing? Volunteering abroad to build schools or dig wells might make people feel good about themselves - but it can be detrimental to those who are supposed to be helped, writes tour company founder Daniela Papi. I've volunteered all over the world - building homes in Papua New Guinea, doing post-tsunami work in Sri Lanka, helping paint a school in Thailand - and I used to think it was the best way to travel. In 2005 I even organised my own volunteer trip - a bike ride across Cambodia with five friends. There turned out to be more than one small problem. Much of the money we had raised for other small projects had been wasted, or landed in corrupt hands. I decided to stay in Cambodia a bit longer to see how we could better use our time and money. To raise money for our work, I started a volunteer travel company that led hundreds of volunteers on trips to Cambodia. Our lack of critical engagement about international volunteering is creating a double standard.

My Carnivore - Your Home for Venus Fly Trap and other Carnivorous Plants Invasive Species Alert: ZOMBIES! Welcome to this special Fresh Afield blog post. Be warned of our state’s newest invasive species threat – ZOMBIES! While zombie management is largely left to the police, military, and health agencies, conservation plays a role in protecting Missouri's fish, forest and wildlife resources – and Missourians – from this invasive species. Hunters, campers and others in the outdoors and on conservation areas should know there is always the chance they may encounter a zombie while out in the field. Good preparation helps you know what to do if you encounter this newest invasive species in Missouri. The zombie invasion is like the feral hog problem in parts of Missouri, and its management is similar. Zombie Identification Some indications that you have a zombie in view: Zombie Hunger and Habitat Zombies require meat and brains. While zombies are primarily found in populated areas, there are zombies in undeveloped rural areas, far from cities and towns. Cold weather slows down zombies. Note to Anglers
Smokers or past smokers: Six ways to cleanse and revitalize your lungs (NaturalNews) It's been observed that even former smokers who quit years ago have traces of lung damage. Even if one has never smoked, second hand cigarette smoke, industrial pollution, vehicular exhaust fumes and now chemtrails with downward drifting heavy metal nano-particles all contribute to some level of lung damage for almost everyone. So whether you once smoked or never puffed on chemical-laden, radioactive (from the fertilizer) tobacco, detoxing and regenerating lung tissue may still be appropriate for you. By the way, the notion that lung damage is irreparable is not true. (1) Lifestyle changes are in order as a foundation for any recommended remedies to have significant and lasting effects. The best way to avoid most chemicals, GMOs, artificial sweeteners, high fructose corn syrup (HFCS), excess sugar and bad salt is to eliminate junk and processed foods and sodas. Exercise more outdoors, away from traffic if possible. (4) Herbal remedies for lung issues are abundant.
