I may have it then. LOL I will look into Vitaklenz . We harvested some Devil's club (Oplopanax horridus) this past year. We have incorporated it into our medicine tea. Started in June or so. I should do some fasting with it. We also need to get our purification lodge back up but in a different location. Toxin remover, the sweat house is. |

And I do know how it feels when it starts from fingers and toes, comes up and then seemingly invades the whole body. But in any case - it doesn’t hurt to do a cleanse from the start and a fast. And then start introducing foods one by one. But read all your ingredient labels really carefully, because I don’t think you can even buy ‘black pepper’ without gluten or wheat in it sometimes. The most harmless foods can contain gluten, wheat or soy, which are often the main culprits. But your food diary will reveal it. It doesn’t hurt either to treat your situation as a ‘leaky gut’ problem. So please learn all about a ‘leaky gut’. If it turns out that is not the cause, at least then you would have eliminated it. Some iridology-naturopaths are really knowledgeable about this, where doctors aren’t. Here in Straya - at the doctor’s they always ask if you are Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander. I have to say no, but I should really say yes, because we, the old hunter-gatherer population of Fennoscandia have the same or similar risk factors as Aboriginals. * |
Sentient I do appreciate it.
When I heard leaky gut, I was thinking like perforated . I see, gut floral secretion's And specific flora live on specific food types, colonize, then secrete thru the lining and overwhelm the body with toxic waste. Cleanse with herbs, then find out what food they like and don't like and change the floral colony to a desired type by food consumption. Maintain healthy floral colony. Easier said then done on the food part. Fasting and ingesting herbs to cleanse is one thing. Obeying Potlach/traditional food rules is another. It is customary to not refuse any offering, especially food. Or you get the eye and the back turned to you. It hurts. LOL, I know, I refused a few things when I first came to Nisqually. But if I can find relief by a few backs turned, then I think I'll brave it. |

He studies medicinal/food and functional uses for Mushrooms. I had worked for one of his old partners from way back further. I need to study what magic treasures he has found that may help with gut health and immune system health. Plus many other magical projects that I have envisioned. Just a vid. as an intro to Paul not necessarily related to neuropathy at all.

Your area ImthatIm says: “77% of participants reported having no known food allergies. 14% of respondents reported being lactose intolerant. Increasing lactose intolerance among tribal members can be a challenge for tribal cooks”. Maybe it is not an increase in lactose intolerance, but rather increase in an awareness of the issue. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-fiJCfGm10 Heh: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9knGW8IuLlk Also when one doesn't have the enzimes for all this Western grain and vegetarian diet, you just become increasingly more fatiqued and start to have deficiences even without the actual allergies or intolerances. * |

Diabetes is a big problem also. Many elders suffer from it. At Tribal dinners you can see some traditional foods but there is a whole lot of processed foods that have sugars and dairy and pasta's. I don't think I have ever seen pasta rot. :icon_eek: There is something drastically wrong with the American food system. I think most of our foods don't rot easily. It all seems preserved with some kind of chemicals. I get tired of seeing how businesses are trying to kill us with chemicals all for the dollar. We have been slowly moving toward more of a paleo diet at home. Economics always plays a part in food decisions. We do have a Tribal garden which has tickled me pink, since I so love garden vegies. Store vegies just don't seem like they taste like food anymore. GMO I guess. We enjoy growing stuff at home too. |

For Palaeolithic hunter-gatherer genes, a Paleo diet imo. is a must rather than some fancy food trend to follow. But I am not sure if it is that good for European agriculturalist’s genes which are used to eating grains for nutrients and do have the enzymes for it. Agricultural West also seems to hail Soy as some kind of a health food and they put it into almost every processed food item. But soy is a real silent killer – for starters if as a hunter-gatherer you don’t have enzymes for it, it doesn’t turn into nutrients in the body. Secondly having slowly become malnourished, it puts your omega 3s and omega 6s ratio out of balance. We need both omegas, but soy has too much omega 6s, which introduces a chronic inflammation in the body. When your body is fighting a low-grade inflammation all the time – then your body becomes susceptible to immune system problems. * Luckily my rs4988235 gene mutation is GA, so I can handle lactose, but it is not really good for me either. Half of the family are GG and I feel sorry for them how they suffer. Quote:

Personally - being a blood type B, I have hypoglycaemia, which is opposite of diabetes, but I have to watch that sugar intake just like diabetics. Have a look at your blood-type diet. It has some truth in it, but then I have to convert it to Paleo. Like for blood type B oats are supposed to be beneficial, but even certified gluten-free oats clog up my system. And rice has arsenic.

If I had dreadlocks, I would probably look like a plucked chicken with a few feathers still left sticking out - but I have no problem with others … black or white having dreads, they do look good. As for the red or yellow though it is a bit different - because, when you are a dry earwax type (East Asians and Native Americans) you hardly sweat from your armpits – so, it is the head that turns into a ‘fountain’.

Although, my Father keeps our family bonnet but it is in poor shape and I have only seen it once.

I always understood I have mut/mixed genes and come from unwanted and illegitimate people, on most of my family lines. I belong in no specific gene pool group.(Or at least most is uncertain) But yet, I belong anywhere I walk until I can't walk. But I don't stay where I am not welcome unless there is a higher reason.

Maybe I already have thought much about it. It may be amazing. My trust factor is low on paying someone to tell me a story which may be true or may not be true. I also think the DNA banks are limited. I know people with defined DNA structures and ancestry that do NOT come up after paying for their personal results. So there are horror stories also. I know, their getting better. Many indigenous cultures seem very limited in the DNA banks. My own Spiritual endeavors have revealed much. Unfortunately I do not believe the internet is a place I am comfortable or trust revealing such in-depth personal experiences. Both because I guard such experiences and the Ego loves to be involved. I have already gone beyond my trust level on this very site. It is a quandary for me. I do however try to tell some things in a general way. |

The best thing about it is that you get a list of your 1st to distant cousins. For example - I learned about my Saami-dna, but had no idea which specific group I was related to / descendant of …. until I discovered a big cluster of cousins from a specific group/place. The same with my Finland-Swedish grandparent’s side. I knew next to nothing about them, but now I’ve got a massive family-trees going back to 1500 something with histories, historical persons, customs etc. etc. The other best thing is that you can download your raw dna and with that data you can start doing your own research using GEDmatch admixture calculators for example.

Well, that just gives me the skeleton to work from …. 16% + non-European. Once I start adding Siberian populations into the calculator mix, I discover that most of my “Amerind” disappears as it is ‘hiding’ in my Chuckhi, Nganassan, Dolgan and Selkup ancestry and then depending on the populations used, I will only get 1-5% of the old-old Siberian/Amerind (Siberians no longer carry, but say, Mayans still do). Trudell says something like “Ancestral knowledge - encoded in the DNA” And I think that is so true. To access the cellular memory – the collective subconscious, is a bit like ‘remembering past lives’. Besides, Amerind-energy-signature (of the auric/energy field) is unique. * |

Your quite knowledgeable on DNA.:notworthy: I have the alcoholic gene. Regardless of which ancestor passed it on. Though I know it was my Father. He is a gun slinging drunk with a dark violent side. No doubt ancestral. He raised us to watch his back from all people trying to get him for all the grief and violence he spread. The simple fact is it became an apparent ancestral part of my life. I would be a casualty by now, of the hopeless alcoholic variety if not for the Red Road of Life. I was a Dr. Jekyll Mr. Hyde drinker. |

Quote:
I had my Mother as a role model who he beat, shot at and blamed for my sisters death. Honestly I was attracted to the false power of violence. I could not see her as a role model until years later after my Naval Captain of the ship I was on had spoke these words in 1985. "I know your kind, I don't like your kind and I will do everything in my power to get you off of this ship." These words confused me. "my kind" I did not know what he meant by my kind. Of course I can see now that he probably meant I was just like my Father and Grandfather even though he did not know them, he could see the fruits of that sort of upbringing. A life set on a destructive path. Not caring about life and Love but only spreading our grief and misery and calling that happiness. :confused: At least I was able to look at myself honestly for the first time. Before I would always blame what I done on the alcohol and not believe it was me that acted that way.(Dr.Jykell Mr. Hyde) Any who, I did see it was me and not the alcohols fault. So in 1985 I threw myself and life at the Mercy of an unknown God and AA. 5 years later took my first step on the Red Road of Life. So I have had many roles models since 1985 and even my Mother became a role model until she crossed in 1990. So I guess my whole point when it comes to DNA and looking back. It is stingy and hurtful for me. So I have still this life and family that I still go through the clearing of emotions and traumas. So it seems unfathomable to dredge up people I do not even know yet. Any way, computer is heating up so I will stop, so I do not lose these words. |
My Western (‘white’) great-grandfather was an alcoholic, so my grandfather as a boy of 12 years old started to look after his mother and his remaining siblings (3 had already died), plus he also took on the responsibility of educating them.
He absolutely HATED alcohol and also Church, which in communions dished out that EVIL drink – heh. Great grandfather’s family had been “Svecoman” (supporters of the Swedish rule) but since he had married into a “Fennoman” family (the senator was a relative of) – sorry about the links: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fennoman_movement – my grandfather, the now Social Justice Warrior (SJW) as a young man also wanted to know more about the roots of Finnish culture and when an opportunity came for him to work for the St. Petersburg – Murmansk railway – he moved East: https://www.lernidee.de/files/map_murman_railroad.jpg When he in turn married this tiny, dark skinned woman from an area where people were called ‘Lapps’ – this was toooooo much. His family flat out refused to become God-Parents to my grandparent’s first born who was too dark … and they disowned us. So never mind this absolutely useless alcoholic who himself had to be taken care of and who let his family starve. Some dignity of their ‘superiority’ had to be maintained by creating this taboo ‘colour boundary’ my grandfather had now grossed. * Ok. Trying to make a long story shorter – my ‘white’ grandfather marrying my gran was like a Britt marrying an Oz-Aboriginal. The difference in the worldview … culture … was that great, so my role models were white vs. indigenous in juxtaposition (to get a full view) .. as from infant to …. I grew up with them … I know who I am. When (whites), especially Germans see me, they display this immediate trust-factor. When some Aboriginal Elders, PNG’s, Vanuatuans, some Maories or some First Nations Americans have seen me, they might get confused a bit at first or come out strait with it, like this one PNG lady: “When I look at you, I see a white person – but you are not – not r-e-a-l-l-y”. Or they just see me, take a beeline strait to me and expect me to acknowledge our connection, which of course I do, how could I not. the "Tribe Called Red" mentioned about the indigenous being ‘invisible’ in the country. My definition of ‘invisibleness’ is a bit different. Whom do you think I can trust. The ones that see me beyond the veil of appearances or the ones that do not i.e. the ones to whom I remain invisible (whether they claim to be indigenous themselves and also anti-cultural appropriation activists saving native spirituality to boot ...or not) …. * |
