Thanks for the tip, VG ... I just googled it, and I got a lot of hits. Amazon rates it very highly. I'll read some reviews tonight.

My K cured a precancerous condition with the Macrobiotic Diet, which is similar to your Full Vegan, but different. It uses lots of beans, brown rice, and seaweed, among other things, but everything is all natural.
Seaweed is good at taking heavy metals and radiation out of the body. Not sure why the beans, except that they steady the blood sugar.
The beans are a staple of the Macrobiotic Diet. If you can imagine a bean, they probably use it, but hard beans in a bag like lintels. Not fibrous beans like the whole cut green bean we eat.
You know, I really like these candles. I bought a lot of candles for electrical outages, but I think these LED, flameless candles are the way to go. Firstly, they use AAA batteries which maybe can be rechargeable. And nowadays, some battery brands have a 10-yr guaranteed shelf storage life. No matches or flames involved. The ppl I know who have them say the batteries last for months. Seems like they would be better than standard candles for even a prepper's needs.
There's tons of food prep in the Macrobiotic Diet. It's very time consuming, but it really works. I think it's a rather ancient oriental thing, but I'm not sure of the origins.
LEDs draw extremely little power from a battery to use, so if single candle power is good enough, then they should be fine. And with that remote control system, you may be able to get them brighter than a single candle could be.
However, the remote receiver inside the candle will draw some power too.
Yes, I know you mean the hard bean. They also are loaded with fiber which means lower risks of heart disease, diabetes, obesity and cancer. They also contain protein, and they digest very slowly which will mean lasting energy ... not to mention they are loaded with protective phytochemicals, antioxidants and vitamins.
However, they are also loaded with lectins which ... for some people ... could be a problem. Lectins in food are known to increase intestinal permeability ... they allow partially digested food proteins and remnants of gut bacteria to spill into the bloodstream.
I do not have problems with beans, and I love them. They do not make me all gassy and farty like they do a lot of ppl. I love a pot of chili beans .... not necessarily vegetarian.

Yes there is, and that's the major reason I never pursued it. Some foods have to be sliced on the diagonal, others blunt and yadda yadda yadda. The prep work tired me out too much to finish the book. Not for me.
If it were beans alone, those problems you've mentioned may be more profound in those people, but in the diet, when properly prepared, those side effects seem to be reduced to non-existent. I guess people who are susceptible would have to try it to see.
But for your Prostate Cancer friend, it may be the ticket. When one is faced with death, it can be amazing the time and energy one comes up with. Plus, he has his GF to help him. I helped K with a lot of it.
Yep, and those who know their nutritional science know how to combine foods properly so those problems never come about. Some people eat they fruit desserts after their dinner and then lay in bed with a tummy ache ... farting too much to even fall asleep. A fruit takes 1-3 hrs to digest, where meats and starches ... a standard dinner meal ... are a slow exit food which may take up to 12 hrs to digest, so the fruit sits and rots and ferments behind the slow exit food. A person is to eat their fruits at least 20 min. before any other food ... not after.
See... I always say... eat your desert first. Only I have a different reason.
This way, you know you have room for it.

Yes, it's possible, but I really think he would search for other alternatives. I personally would go with Essiac tea, graviola and devil's claw, and most definitely the Johanna Budwig cancer protocol. Medicinal mushrooms are excellent too ... think it was maitake, reishi and maitake. The chaga is the big hoot now.
Speaking of mushrooms... lots of mushrooms in the Macrobiotic Diet. Lots of ....ake was what K liked.
EDIT: They bleeped it - S h i t ake mushrooms.
Please look into the Limu for him, too.
When K was using the Macrobiotic Diet, Limu did not exist.

I know it's late in your time one, VG, so I should let you go. Yaaay, I have the weekend off.
What's happening with me .... DD has had a bunch more cysts pop up on her ovaries. She doubles over in pain on the job, so then I have to race around with my jobs to finish, then go finish her jobs. When she hires me as a team member, that's business, but when she gets sick on a job, that's a mother helping her daughter, so I do not charge her except for $5-10 gas and hand her over the collection I take from the customer. Only when needed, though. I helped her out the other day when she couldn't finish up, but she has since seen her doc again and is taking other medication which manages her pain better.

I'm in no rush to leave, unless you are.
She may need to have her ovaries removed, huh?
The mushroom that got bleeped is an excellent mushroom to use as a meat substitute and a sub for the dangerous soy products misinformed ppl are eating tons of.
Over 90% soy and corn products are GMO's. I'll pass on GMO's. I've read recent reports of GMO grains fed to animals being raised for our food supply being deformed and die from it.
In fact, you could google veggie burgers and get some great mushroom burger recipes ... and they are really good. I love black bean burgers too.
As for prostate cancer, I've read (but not researched yet) that prostate cancer is not a very aggressive cancer and can be managed quite well. And that most men die with it instead of from it. IOW, it remains docile and inactive in many. Like I said, I can't aver anything since I haven't read any published reports yet.

Nope, they are shrinking, and they want to monitor their activity. No ovary removals ... it would be the removal of the cysts.
And besides, I would go over and do a series of healings on her if she told me her plan was to go under the knife. I won't interfere with what she chooses for herself - she has to ask me. She has started juicing organic veggies every single day and is feeling quite a difference in her mood and energy level. She also is sleeping better now. If I could now get her started on green smoothies as a meal replacement for her lunch, that would be awesome. She gets confused and anxious with too many changes at one time, so I have to go slowly with her ... one change at a time.
