Lead Poisoning and Soldering

Comment:
This is a great post. I have really amazingly high lead levels that I have been working on reducing. While I've never seen anything to "prevent" lead poisoning it is super important to make sure that you have adequate levels of calcium in your diet. If your body is at all deficient in calcium your body will more easily metabolize and store lead.

Thanks

“I just can't live like this any more. It seems the more I try to be raw, the more I sabotage myself. I did find a nice page on the Raw Living Foods site called Backsliders Corner. Jim Carey offers great advice on how to cope with backsliding on the way to raw.

”I leave you with words of wisdom from Jim: "Living Foods is a journey, not a destination.""

Great Job, Jim on making the hyperlinks to the articles from the TOC. This is so helpful in scanning your newsletter. I applaud you for getting this done!

Blessings to you

PS  I'm just now working on getting our first ezine published. It's quite a hairy task getting it all put together, but I know that it will be easier once I get the template set up. Whew!  I need to be able to quit my full time jobs so I can stay home and work my other full time job - the website. :-P

DOES THIS MEAN I’M FAMOUS?
Well, gee whiz! I guess I’ve hit the big time!

I saw this post at the chidiet.net blog (just about the only site I would want to recommend for in-depth serious training in Ann Wigmore’s diet theory)

Since I have been heavy into Ann Wigmore since forever (what? you did not know that?), I surfed over there right away, and then clicked on the link, and guess who popped up??? It was me, myself, and I! with that lovely smile I periodically demonstrate (Julia Roberts: watch your back!!!) My blog was featured on WordPress.com….. coolness in person….Yes, please do go see it!

Okay, end of personal horn-blowing…

Jim:

This version is appealing! I use Outlook Express and have DSL service, so I am very pleased with the look and format of this version. You are doing a great job.......don't get discouraged by all the different ideas of what you "should" be doing according to all the different perceptions people have. I salute you for providing this service and the fact that you have been since I went through CHI in 2003. Please pat yourself on the back for a job well done......I thank you!!!!!!

Hugs,

Sharon

I LOVE the new look! You have come a long way from a plain text news letter to what you have today.

Hi, I’m enjoying the color of the New Look of the Newsletter. It has a nice light feel to it (just like when you eat raw) and being able to see the categories and get to it as a reference means that I won’t need to archive them on my computer. It’s nice to see a picture of Jim on it looking so very balanced and healthy.

I am not 100% raw but am eating more raw day by day and am losing weight and loving it. Your news letter is a great inspiration!! Thank you for doing it!

Thanks for the kind words.

Remember… even if you’re not 100% raw, how much better are you doing now than when you were on the SAD?

Feedback - Louann

Jim,

I LOVE your new newsletter. At first, I didn't recognize it as yours. The colors and pictures are very cheerful and pleasant on the eyes.

What happened with the German woman who was helping you? I liked reading her blibs, but it looks like she is no longer with you. She mentioned the weather, and it's sure different than in Germany. If she's gone, I miss her, if she's still here, I am glad, a probably you too.

Now, for this minute, I just tried to listen to Recipes for Life, but it could not be connected. It said something about "loading problems" . Unfortunately, there are only 48 hours availability. I will keep trying to connect with it as long as I can, hoping that I can receive the "enlightenment" it will have for us.

Thanks so much and keep on doing what you love doing and are so good at doing!

Louann

Thank you for the kind words.

Renata went to Clemson, SC, to pursue an opportunity there. Have a local girl doing admin stuff for me, but it’s not the same as having an experienced raw fooder to help. Donna is, however, getting really interested in the Raw Lifestyle, just from helping edit the weblog and newsletter.

Re: Recipes for Life – it didn’t work for me, either. Hopefully they’ll re-post it for another free period.

Love the New Format of your Newsletter

Hi Jim:

Love the new format of your newsletter. Looks great and easy to read. I have enjoyed it over the years and use a lot of your information to share with others.

My one suggestion, and I don't know if it's possible, would be to make the Table of Contents hyperlinks to the articles in your newsletter so that we can click on it and come right to that article.

Other than that - GREAT JOB!!!

Happy Thanksgiving to all you Un-Turkeys!

Hello Jim,

Though I have not made the switch to a totally raw diet as of yet, I do enjoy the benefits of such healthful food.... and I am attempting to introduce it to my fiancé, who is meat and potatoes. I recall one of issue of the newsletter that had a before and after photo of you.  Can you direct me to a link of that? I would love to share it with him.

Thank you!

Hi Jim,

I just wanted to thank you for the great newsletters. I emailed you awhile back and you encouraged me.  Things are going great now. I have lost 135 lbs on raw and going strong. Now I enjoy helping others get there too! I went to Creative Health and had a blast, and saw the CHI booth at Raw Spirit too.

Be well,

I want to thank you for putting out your newsletter. I have been a subscriber for over a year now. Recently I found a link on your website to a local potluck/support group that was hosting Chef Dan from Quintessence Restaurant. I signed up for the Event/Buffet and was among 60 or so folks gathered at the hosts home to socialize and enjoy a wonderful meal of raw and living foods.

Oh yes, I did mention to Lisa that I found out about her through Chidiet.com’s newsletter!

Thanks for the great work!

Hi Jim,

 

I had to send a reply when I read your comment above in the recent chi Living Foods News. Even in my busiest weeks I at least scan and read some of the articles you send out. I'm not 100% raw, but more than I was a few years ago. 

 

Keep up the great work!

i love you too, jim!

your work has been a blessing to me
as obviously it has been to the many thousands you have reached
with your newsletters and dedication to the raw food lifestyle
that's why the law of attraction is at work for you
everyone loves you and wants more of you

are you REALLY moving to hawaii?
if so,
that may be the very thing that motivates me
to visit the place that sounds like paradise!
i'll simply enroll myself at chi of maui.

abundant health and love,

Dear Jim,

I noticed that you posted my press release on your weblog and I wanted to thank you for your kind support for my up-coming book.

I would love to learn more about what you do relating to raw foods/lifestyle. Do you also offer products and or services through your blog?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Best,

No, the blog is just my hobby, and a way of sharing all of the info from my four years of writing a weekly raw foods newsletter. Have you seen my testimonial at http://rawlivingfoods.typepad.com/1/2006/06/what_raw_living.html?

We do offer products at www.chidiet.com, as well as a subscription form to my newsletter.

Feedback - Elleyne Kase

Dear Jim,

Thank you for your wonderful publication. I'm a 100% raw foodist since '99 and am very touched with all the information from your blog. I met the Bouetenko's in '99 when they were on a speaking tour in San Diego.

It was wonderful to connect with their new site and see the publications now available.

Also saw your story with pictures. Isn't the change dramatic? 20 years younger! My story is similar to yours and am profoundly grateful for the old time raw foodists who have provided the knowledge to achieve the wonderful degree of health I now enjoy.

Recently I developed a line of images for apparel and gift items that focuses on this lifestyle. I was wondering if you could take a look at it and give me feedback. I have just started marketing and currently am using an online print service to produce product.

My web address is www.gaiaultd.com.

Your blog is definitely bookmarked.

Best wishes,
Elleyne Kase

Thank you so much for your info on backsliding - I really needed that.

I am very new to raw foods and have only managed to stay 100% raw for one week - But I am managing to incorporate more raw foods than cooked foods.

Thanks again,
