SPECIAL REPORT  - A Veggie tale of a new kind!

I’ve heard, but I am not a doctor… info coming fast and furious about cancer prevention shows New Agers and old time healers weren’t so far off! According to several cancer sites in California cancer cells live off of mucus (for example cows milk consumption), sugar (even fake), and an acidic system (ex. vinegar, beef and pork).

At Curves, my source for fitness…they remind you to drink lots  of water everyday…not liquid, that’s cheating (not flavored waters, or sodas, coffee, nada but H2O) I drink 2 containers of 16 ounces a day. Also great for catching up on readin, if ya get my drift, just keep a bookcase in the loo.

Good news if you make 80% of your diet raw veggies, fresh fruit (I know, like you’d eat rotten fruit), nuts, grains and use meats, chicken and fish as proteins you’re on the way to giving your body the enzymes (raw veg/fruit) and nutrients it needs to fight off cancer cells. If you’re going to eat meat out (steak) cut  it in half and bring the rest home for another day–in other words use meat as a condiment! LOL

I am trying to cut all processed foods from my diet…it really is easy to make tomato soup in the blender with a few tomatoes, cream and basil- heat and serve. I am cutting out MSG, sugar and vinegar. I use soy sauce for salt on veggies and on salads…regular salt has something that whitens it- bleck! Try sea salt.

I hope you all know by now NOT to use plastic in the microwave, no plastic wrap either. No plastic water containers in fridge for later use, don’t leave plastic water bottles in car and drink-NO, NO, NO! Dioxins-(as in toxins) get into water and Arggggg! you are drinking poison.

 REMEMBER!!!! Only shop on the outside perimeter of the grocery stores and then go home. (Okay, you can get paper goods, but then blast past the cookies, icecream (frozen animal fat) and chips.

Take walks, laugh out loud, and sing all very beneficial, or so I believe…like I said I am not a doctor!

 

 

 

Special Report - “Sex After Fifty: Better Than Ever”

Television and magazine ads for Cialis, adult diapers,

heart and high blood pressure medications, all

aimed at the fifty-and-over crowd, would seem to

indicate that sex in later life is a scientific

endeavor more suited to a laboratory than the

bedroom.

 

What is missing is a discussion of why sex in

extended mid-life is terrific, in fact, often

better than when we were younger. Sure, sex

is complex (or “multifactorial” as the experts would

say). We know that sex can be affected by social,

physical, hormonal, medicinal and psychological

factors. And we all know there can be problems.

But sometimes it seems like we are being told that

sex after “a certain age” is a physiological

improbability. It makes one wonder if the world even

knows that sex in extended mid-life is not only

happening, but is often better than ever.

 

For those of us unimpeded by erectile dysfunction,

a devastating divorce, or dementia, there’s more about

sex that’s enjoyable now than there was twenty or

thirty years back. So let’s celebrate a few of the

things that put the “boom” in Baby Boomer sex.

Sex is hereditary. If your parents never had it,

you probably won’t either. –Anonymous.

 

1) No one is gonna get into trouble. At this stage,

pregnancy is usually not a concern (Hello crazy

sixty-five-year-old lady in Italy who gave

birth to twins - we are not talking to you).

When the woman is past the age of childbearing, there

isn’t the thought in the back of anyone’s mind about

the enormous responsibility that could follow from

this sexual act. It would make a good bumper

sticker: “Sex after fifty: All of the fun - none of

the responsibility!”

 

 

2) Wrinkles, shminkles. After a “certain age” we seem

to have fewer personal insecurities and are more

comfortable in our own skins. Women have gotten over

feeling like they need to look like Raquel Welch to

turn a man on and enjoy themselves in bed. Men

realize by now that the only thing they need to prove

in the bedroom is that they care. Not being focused on

your own insecurities frees you to focus on pleasing

your partner and being pleased in return. Woo-hoo!

 

Sex is one of the nine reasons for reincarnation.

The other eight are unimportant. -Henry Miller

 

3) We know our way around the bedroom. If you’re

having sex after the age of fifty, at least one of you

is more likely to be having sex with a partner who is

“marinated in experience.”

 

You and your partner have been around the block a few

times. You know that sex is more than just intercourse.

It’s all the ala carte items on the menu too. Laughing

naked in the bathroom together to fondling each other

while reading the Sunday paper in bed. We’ve graduated

from being sexual revolutionaries to being seasoned

sexual citizens. Sex with a skilled lover?

Double woo-hoo!!

 

 

4) The kids are gone. The children have grown and left

home. No risk of one of your progeny walking in the

room during your heavy breathing. No rattling doorknobs

and the sounds of your child asking “What are you

doing in there? I need you to drive me to Jennifer’s

house!” No kids roaming the homestead means

uninterrupted sex. That means you can relax. And that

means orgasm. Need I say more? Of course there can

be other pesky interruptions. “Please turn off all

cell phones and pagers before our feature

presentation.”

 

5) Hey, you look familiar. Having sex with a partner

you’ve been with for twenty or thirty years means

you have developed some great ways to please each

other in the sack - and out.

Sex is a conversation carried out by other

means. Peter Ustinov

If you get on well out of bed, half the problems of

bed are solved.” If you’ve been with your husband

or wife this long, well, chances are you sorta like

each other. You’ve shared the ups and downs of life.

You know all of each other’s weaknesses and love each

other anyway. That’s heavy, man.

 

That kind of intimacy is beautiful and makes sex a

delightful experience of personal connectivity. You

can’t buy the feeling of being fully known and

accepted by someone else. That you have to earn.

The backseat produced the sexual revolution.

Jerry Rubin

 

“Yes, there are challenges to sex after sixty, but

there are also creative solutions. There’s nothing

hotter than sex between people who know their own

bodies, are crazy about each other, relish

taking lots of time, and honor both the physicality

and the spirituality of sex.” writes Baby Boomer

Joan Price. “I just don’t think people can get there

without a whole lot of life experience. We’re

redefining this aging stuff.”

 

 

The bottom line is that while there may be changes

in mind and body that affect ones sex life after

fifty, some of those changes are distinctly positive.

So tune in, turn on, and keep rollin’!
