You can't overdose on B12 - it's entirely nontoxic and your body just expels whatever it doesn't use through the urine. They just like to jam pack those tablets with as much as possible. Kind of...

If you do not already have kidney or liver problems, a multivitamin will not hurt you. Now if you were going to take 10 full strength multis a day for the rest of your life, then yeah, you might run...
when you take a multivitamin, it is usually packed with way more than your body can absorb at once. your body takes what it needs and the rest leaves in your urine - hence why it's bright yellow or...
aw - i don't know about treating the tooth itself, but for the pain, try drinking willow bark tea...it's basically a naturally occurring aspirin. you'll need to drink three or four cups, but it...
oh my. those sound unbelievable!!!!!
sprite, i baked it in the oven. it's a pain that way, but i can't find the paddle thing to my breadmaker so i am forced to be old fashioned. there is something satisfying, though, about kneading...
i never post on this thread, but today i just kind of feel like sharing since it was a yummy food day
breakfast: bannana blackberry soy smoothie
Lunch: green salad with sweet orange peppers and...
ha! yes! i forgot all about Bunnicula! ah, to be a child again :)
i used to love henry huggins!!!!!!!! henry huggins and the paper route was my favorite :)
Korn, this isn't really non-brutal (as it has a lot of "action" from what I can recall), but I've been meaning to see what people have thought of the animated movie "The Rats of NIMH" and I figured...
Alright, one of my favorite books was the Little Golden Book, "Mister Dog" about Crispin Crispian and his little boy. Except I recently found a copy and reread it and it starts out, "Crispin...
fun! i'd like to be the taste tester for a contest like that!
i like the advice of drinking lots of water - i keep a HUGE bottle of water with me everywhere and sometimes i'll flavor it with just a bit of juice. the act of drinking actually becomes an...
try knitting. it keeps your hands busy!
Pisces, your career list is awesome! You sound a lot like me - passionate about so many things, you could do any one of them and be happy! I have seriously considered art therapy - there is an...
Where are you in North Carolina? Raleigh is in desperate need of a veggie place - especially given how many colleges are in the area. I was in Boone a few months ago and passed THREE vegetarian...
god, this sounds so much like me my freshman year of college - i hope it is helpful to know you are not the only person who has found themselves in this situation and that so many of us did not end...
aw, thanks :) you're too sweet! are you considering entering the health field or were you just curious?
i'm a nursing student and i want to get my MSN in Midwifery when I'm through. working in hospitals and blindly supporting pharmaceutical companies is a challenge for me, but my goal is to work...
it seems silly to pay to stand in a room with people and hula hoop - you could do that at home for much cheaper!!! sounds like fun :)
hollybee, i don't think she was ranting just on you, i think it was a compilation of all of us who have been jumping to conclusions about what her "problem" is. (conclusions that, with what little...
i just thought of something else, too. as soon as you're done with your baggie of food, chew some gum. if you're chewing gum, you can't keep eating, and it gives you something to do that is similar...
try setting out four (or however many you think) sandwhich bags, and fill them with something healthy (trail mix, dried fruit, nuts, raw veggies, whatever). take them with you to...
it's not a silly question - it's something a lot of people struggle with, including myself. so i completely understand.
something that has worked for me is the idea of conscious eating. they...
Bic asks some really good questions.
if none of these things apply to you, i guess my initial thoughts are, if you're eating 1500-2000 calories a day, most of which are from healthy sources, and...
my suggestion is always to cut out processed and packaged foods which usually contain all sorts of unnecessary additives. i've also been told that you should never eat anything that is white. it...
same here
My issue isn't receiving information. Information is good. My issue is the mass amounts of paper waste generated by these campaigns. I'm aware that not all animal rights activists also care about...
I get so much crap from PETA and it drives me crazy. I get petition after petition after petition (which I also get online, so I don't need the paper copy), followed by endless pleas for money, and...
All this "soy causes cancer" stuff is really odd to me (I'm no expert, so perhaps the science is "beyond" me) but soy contains IP6, which is a tumor suppressant, so logically you'd think soy would...
or mashed cauliflower with garlic
i really like steamed kale with a bit of tamari and some sesame seeds. go easy on the tamari, though, it can be pretty salty and overpowering.
i am totally supportive of non-violent direct action - although this forum will not allow discussion of anything outside the system, so there's not much we can say about it - but i do think that...
while i agree that a company who stops testing because they will lose business isn't necessarily ethical, i think it's important to show support when decisions like that are made. if sales continue...
This recipe for roasted chickpeas is from "How it all Vegan" and I really like it for a munchy snack:
pat dry a can of chickpeas and combine in a bowl with a couple tablespoons olive oil. add...
clams are animals because they eat other organisms. plants make their own food, animals obtain it from an outside source.
which, when considered from an entirely outside ethical perspective with...
^ oooh yes, vegweb is a wonderful resource.
my favorite recipe for suckering my non-vegan brother into eating my cooking is chilli!
sauteed onion and garlic (however much you prefer)
1 can...
It just seems highly arrogant. Perhaps if she followed it with "The Supreme Master of [whatever it is she feels she is the master of]", then it wouldn't imply The Supreme Master of ALL!!!
I...
the Pacific Northwest (Northern California, Oregon, Washington) is beautiful and vegan friendly. However, if you're not from the US, you should definitely go to Arizona, New Mexico, or Utah for the...
I was mildly anemic when I first went vegan (I was living in the dorms, so my diet was pretty limited). I am sensitive to iron, too, so supplements made me really nauseous. You can buy slow release...
