I like this website Wellness Mama, she covers a lot of interesting topics, as well as Paleo recipes, and recipes for tooth past and shaving cream etc.

After reading what she says about margerine and vegetable oil, I definitely won't use either ever again. I enjoyed the graphs she presented.

Thanks for posting this Charlotte. I had lost my recipe for homemade mayo. Tried hers & loved it. May try the recipe for toothpaste. Also, I agree with you on the margarine & vegetable oil!

What a great website! The author of this blog has a nutrition background and seems to be up on the lastest findings - she is primarily paleo - anti-grain/soy/legume and is a believer in fat and protein. Thanks for sharing. I signed up for the free weekly meal suggestions. I am impressed that her breakfast ideas are so creative - hardly an egg recipe listed. Most paleo breakfast recommendations are egg dishes.

Hugs,

Polly

On one of the pages of that web sit is a video entitled FAT HEAD. It is 1 hour and 45 minutes long but it is worth watching especially from the middle to the end of it. I played it full screen, turned up the volumn and sat in my recliner and knit. It is very funny and yet enlightening as to how some of the changes in the food and products we eat came about. Especially since the 1950's or so. Below is the link to the video. Once in a while you have to watch a commercial but that's when you go to the bathroom.

Thanks for the great site Charlotte. I've been reading and copying recipes this afternoon (and forwarding sunscreen and homemade wipe recipes to my daughter.) I was kind of intrigued by the earthing mat. I live in a condo and I miss "touching" grass and earth. We just sold our cabin which gave me that connection. I know I always feel better after walking outside, on grass or on a beach, barefoot. I remember a friend telling me many years ago that we need that connection.

Charlotte,
The best part of the movie is the song at the end. I would love to have just that to send to my son and friends. Really, really good!
And the website - I need to spend some time on it.

Thank you!
