Why My Partner & I have been vegetarian for almost 7 years.




“Loma Linda University in California did a recent study where they found that vegetarians live 7.9 years longer than people on the Standard American Diet; studies done in England, Germany and Finland show that people on a vegan (no meat, eggs or dairy) diet will live up to 12 to 15 years longer.

“That supports the data that comes from C. Everett Koop, about people dying from diseases associated with their diet,” says Lyman."

...or why my partner Sherwood Akuna and I are vegetarians since the day after THE MAD COWBOY, Howard Lymanhttp://www.madcowboy.com/ was on OUT THERE TV almost 7 years ago! (Of course we finished our home made half lb. BLT's with cheese before we stopped eating meat the next day - no I don't miss it.)

If you are like us and are working to be 100 years old when we grow up, consider making that change off of eating anything with eyes that is not a potato. 

It's not just the slaughter houses. The toxins BP put into the Gulf should give any fish eater cause to take a break. Despite the illusions of society, there is really only one ocean...run your finger around the globe and you'll see the ocean is connected. What was used in the BP oil spill (gusher) and other ocean disasters, like nuclear subs lost at depths too low to retrieve, is a consideration when the decision involves eating fish. 

We have to be careful now with the veg. lifestyle in this shift because last week POTUS Obama signed the Monsanto Protection Act which means we have to clean up our food supply. That story is breaking fast so Bing the Monsanto Protection Act.

Of course medical marijuana, hemp foods and hemp oils are health boosters.

There is a book on amazon HEMP FOR VICTORY: THE WONDER HERB by the USA Hemp Museum's founder and curator Richard M. Davis on many ways to use medical marijuana to help folks heal.  

Two papers out of the museum on the delicious and healthy ways to consume hemp as food and healing oil, including information on the cancer curing Rick Simpson cannabis oil are:
