@Maga gal Have you tried grinding the chia and flax seeds. I use an electric coffee grinder for about a week's worth at a time. If I have them already ground, my husband will add them to his yogurt.

@Maga gal

Chia and Flax Seeds are a good source of fiber, but also there are lots of trace minerals.

We are always looking for ways to save money. I get ours in bulk section of the coop. It is much cheaper to grind them myself. Also, less loss of nutrients when used soon after grinding.

We switched to coconut oil primarily because of anti-inflammatory properties. there are a lot of other benefits though. 👉 http://www.greenmedinfo.com/blog/13-evidence-based-medicinal-properties-coconut-oil 👉 http://coconutoil.com/study-coconut-oil-fatty-acids-have-bactericidal-and-anti-inflammatory-activities-against-acne/

I can't eat curry often enough to get enough turmeric for health benefits, so we started using the Curamed brand, but due to serious cost difference, we switched to Vitacost.com 's "ROOT2 Turmeric Extract Curcumin C3 Complex® with Bioperine®" The Chia, Flax, Coconut Oil, and Curcumin are all supposed to have anti-inflammatory properties. 🌷 as well as possibly protecting against Fluoride toxicity: http://archive.is/5JZOv 🌷 Also possibly treat/prevent cancer: http://archive.is/182rl 🌷 including TNBC: http://archive.is/ZVeCk 🌞 I need to research turmeric supplements more.

@Maga gal 🌺 You are most welcome. Have a wonderful Easter.

@Nightwolf 🌚 🐺 We have been using Coconut Oil for cooking, when it can be melted -- eggs, stirfry, pancakes. For in recipes, mostly Avocado oil or Olive oil. I have some Olive/Grapeseed oil, but usually do not think to use it. I have always loved coconut, so i found it quite easy to transition to it. My husband took a bit longer, but now he is used to it. 🌻

Hey, I just realized that a Youtuber my husband told me about last week is here. 🤔 Gee, it's a small world. https://www.dustinnemos.com/health 👋

No, NOT mysite it's Duston Nemos' site.

@TommyMac! Whoa! Last Week my hubby mentioned @Dustin Nemos to me

@jupiterdaisy#0336, there is a product called "MediHoney" (kinda on the expensive side) which is for wound care.(I only got MediHoney recently). In 1993, I had a severe wound on my heel. Will leave out the most gory of the details, but after being in a cast for over a month, the original poorly treated heel injury finally required me to see a plastic surgeon. After removing (debriding) all of the dead tissue, I had a huge area on the back of my heel with no skin. There was a product called "duo-derm" which was basically a thin foam sheet (about 4x4 inches) with a sterile sugar compound embedded in it. These things cost me $5 each, and I had to change it every 4-5 days. The plastic surgeon told us that the duo-derm "patch" had come about because of the success of honey used in wound care.

Without it I would have surely lost my foot. We had some amazing help which had kept my wound from getting infected, but it was only a matter of time with a wound that large.

Original wound was beginning of September, Debriding was somewhere second to last week of October. It took until Christmas before I had new skin covering all of the wound. I used to joke that all I wanted for Christmas was not a new front tooth, but my heal healed. And I got it.

Honey does have amazing healing properties!

@hitchhiker Very cool info about using honey on the chicken. I am so glad that it worked so well!

@jupiterdaisy#0336 Yes. Our 🌎 is a wonderous place. So many amazing things. Even when everything is not 🌈 's 🦋 's and 🦄 's there are still so many amazing things. If we only take the time to look, they are right before us.

@jupiterdaisy#0336 What proportions of garlic : honey : cayenne do you use? I make a ginger-honey which is finely grated fresh ginger covered in honey. I then use 1/4 to 1/2 tsp of this to either tea or plain hot water. I used to mince fresh ginger with a knife for ginger tea, but it is handy to have some ready-to-go in the fridge.
