    Ethnobotanicals for Psoriasis

    Wrightia tinctoria, Azadirachta indica, Psoralea corylifolia & Coleus forskohlii might be of interest An autoimmune dietary protocol is probably essential (eliminating dairy, eggs, grains, nightshades, with the possibility of re-introducing them)
  2. Smolke Lab, Stanford, already finished the job in July (glucose -> thebaine, and glucose -> hydrocodone)...they deliberately did not aim for morphine, I suppose for political reasons. They say the yield now has to be increased by 100,000x to be commercially viable & they think they can do it in 3 years.

  4. anyone have seeds for the little pea-sized thai eggplants? or the golf-ball sized ones, white mottled with green (maybe they're unripe at that stage..) ? [ 17. February 2003, 01:59: Message edited by: coin ]

  6. Being quite uneducated myself, could someone please clarify for me, the psych student stereotype?? The only couple of people I know who did psychology, went back to it at a mature age... Yes, I'm just ignoring everything else in this thread...I know this is off topic, but it's already way off track
  7. this is meant to provide a path into advaitic awareness and conveniently also points to some deeply hidden assumptions about questions, language, personhood and information transmittance.
  8. btw - just call me "Sailor Aum[ohm] (S,Ω) || Sailor Om (S,ॐ)" just some bullshit for this seriousness

  10. why the confusion? thelema became a troll (?) sad that his brain decayed in such a way... (not really) Maybe he's just sad. I've said it before - Thel needs some major hugs. Hugs for your mean egotistical sarcastic sentiment - hugs for your awake at weird AM hours - hugs for your feelings of disconnectedness.
  11. oh yeah...and intellectualised forum-nonsense is no crazy-wisdom...u think u can even try??

    Bob - do you need another time-out, maybe? because fun turns into thoughtless egotism & abuse and then forum-lite delirium ? Your posts are just getting wasted-weird again.

    Kefir strains

    is strain even the correct term for kefir, given it is a symbiotic colony? (not that I don't understand what you're asking, of course...just curious)

    meditating through pain - how to do this?

    I think Shinzen Young has 1-2 videos where he's working with someone, working with pain - and IIRC, it is all about intensely focusing in to pain, where it becomes deconstructed

    IMHO just take an animal derived EPA/DHA concentrate....plenty of people don't metabolize plant based omega-3's very well. If you choose animal-free for ethical/spiritual reasons -- take flax products, or there are now algal-sourced omega 3 concentrate products. if you choose animal-free for health -- at least look at these most bio-available omega 3 products available. Personally I use "Jarrow Epa Dha Balance"

    meditating through pain - how to do this?

    To be fair to GP's -- I would like to say this: while it may seem that they have no interest in underlying causes, etc., from my viewpoint where I still see GP's as ppl that really care about their patients' health, who are themselves, constantly frustrated by their own limitations -- I think the reason they don't get in to diet & alternative medications, is because the science/evidence is often lacking, and mostly because they have years of experience of making lifestyle recommendations to patients who just ignore their advice & keep getting sicker & sicker....so they get to a point where they have given up on that, and feel that addressing the problem with medications is a quicker way to get things on track, rather than see a patient arrive in another 6 months with ulcers/gangrene, etc. I sometimes get really tired of the anti-doctor perspective that a lot of ppl have - it's a popular mainstream idea now (that doctors are only in it for the bucks, etc.) - however valid it might seem sometimes. Especially when ppl start going on about big-pharma kick-backs -- as if big-pharma care about community gp's. This rant is a bit off-topic, but just something on my mind...

    Hi Anodyne -- to give a quicky reply -- try googling "Shinzen Young pain" You can probably find a torrent of his "Break Through Pain" book/audio book with guided "meditations" (I have downloaded the audio book, so I know that can be found online). Or you could look at/buy the book from Amazon. It seems he also has a (newer) title called "Natural Pain Relief: How to Soothe and Dissolve Physical Pain with Mindfulness" on Amazon, but I'm not familiar with that one....I'll look into it. for an overview: A Synopsis of Shinzen Young’s book Break Through Pain A Pain-Processing Algorithm I have what I would probably call a mild condition (causing pain) & I know how much it affects me -- I really empathise with anyone dealing with 'real' pain...I respect and admire anyone who's dealing & coping with this... I'm sure it might sound trite -- but I do hear many times over that these kind of conditions can be great life-transforming teachers.
  21. look forward to listening to this...I subscribe to quite a few RN podcasts, but would have missed this one.
