Sunday the 10th of February

Here I give you my new weekly menu. It has the changes that I told boefore like reducing the citrics like lemon, reducing seaweeds because they are suppoused to clear toxics from the diet but lets face it I dont have that many toxins in my diet or less seeds in general because, although I still keep the ones for breakfast, seeds are suppoused to water the insids quite a lot and from a chinese food mediceine point of view take them to be quite watery and I do have quite a lot of water in my system. Three new tyhings that I have that I didn before areyam, ume, and sweet potatoes; I also have inluded in my diet alfalfa sprouts , water cress, bamboo shoots, water chestnuts and black beans; all of this is influenced in the new inside that I have in chinese eating and cooking as a therapy.

The books I have been reading about chinese are , well I find them , very much orientated to a professional mind and this is hardly my case so I am hoping to see whether Nick Maters, my accupuncturist, will lend me a more accesible book in this subject.

Aahh one thing I am forgeting is that I have the soup receipe; now the soup receipe becomes two and basically one is yang (tho monday one) while the other is ying (the Thursday one) and until I changed them and even even when I do they will remain ying and yand because I wnat o have that sort of balance whether is winter (ying) or summer (yang).


BREAKFAST

First consist of a cup of magnetised water (look warm) with a drop of a teat tree oil and the morning medication (this one needs to be given to Elfrid as soon as possible while he is still in bed); Ten or 15 mins later Elfrid has the second part of the breakfast that is a cup of matte tea that has been brewing for 5 mins with a well stirred rouded tea spoon of lions mane and a lavel tea spoon of xylitol; abuot five or ten minutes later comes the porridge that it will be 75 grams of scottish porridge oats and the grounding of 4 brazil nuts, 3 walnuts (6 halves), 1 yam cookie with 1 teaspoon of the following: pumpkin, sunflower, lin and hepm seeds - grounded well and mixed with the porridge.

On wednesday and friday for lunch I have home made yogurt. this yougurt made form kefir grains that takes approx 16 to 20 days to be made; after a few days of the kefir grains "meeting the goats milk (full fat as aparently semi skimmed has added flavour so its not very natural) about half of the quantity will be converted into whey that I drink it because is very beneficial for my gut once the kefir converts the milk into yogurt get the kefir grains out because if not it becomes too thick and therefore very difficult to separate the grains from the yogurt,
