Horse meat secret to long life? Where do I buy Horse Meat in Manila?

by

An interesting article in the Philippine Star. Horse meat secret to long life? My question is, where do I buy horse meat in Manila?

There must really be something in horse meat. The healer Vander Gaditano once told me that the horse is a powerful animal and its meat will give you a different kind of strength. I have tasted some cooked horse meat in a business meeting.  But I want to taste it raw.

Here’s a clip from that news article:

Roque said some of the oldest folks in the city are horsemeat eaters and they continue to have a diet of horse meat.

Rey Asistio, horse meat enthusiast, said for the last 20 years, he has been eating horse meat and found it very delicious and enhances body resistance particularly to minor illness.

“Lumalakas ako pag kumain ng kabayo” (I feel stronger when I eat horse meat).”

Eating horse meat is a long time tradition of the city.

Bong Padua, Malabon public Information officer, said it’s only in Malabon where the horse meat is a favorite delicacy.

“Tourists come to Malabon to have a taste of the favorite delicacy.”

Sea Urchin / Uni Sashimi in Farmers Market, Dirt Cheap in Ilocos

by

I took my 5 year old girl with me to the office this morning. She was on orange juice and coconut juice. This is her raw paleo diet week. She then said she was hungry and wanted sashimi / raw fish and / or raw oysters. Sure.

We went down, bought some calamansi and some guavas. Then for some fish. The hawky vendor offered me uni aka sea urchin… oohhh… yummy… 500 pesos for that small plastic container. He said it was 1/2 kilo, fully packed and submerged in ice. Maybe it was 1/2 kilo or less. I hadn’t had uni in a long time, my little girl was recovering from a long cold, this is a good excuse to blow some money away. So I bought it.

Yummy. Lip smacking good. My daughter relished the raw sea urchin. I taught her to put it on top of the raw tuna sashimi slices… great combo. She really pigged out on it. I pigged out on it myself. In a few short minutes, this made my daughter so sleepy she took a mid morning nap with the nannie in my office. Parent mission accomplished.

I went home for lunch to make sure my 2 boys had their fill of the raw sea urchin. They liked it. More with my 8 year old. We were frustrated some 2 years ago when in Palawan we paid for a lot of sea urchin only to open them and find they were “malnourished”. It wasn’t worth opening the rest of them to find such tiny amounts of sea urchin meat.

I offered my sister in law some uni sashimi, I know she likes this stuff. She declined. She said in her visits to her job in Ilocos province she eats mounds of this stuff. Yes, she eats something like half a kilo in one sitting she said. And that sea urchin was so cheap in Ilocos she pays only 70 pesos to 100 pesos per kilo. She couldn’t believe I paid 500 pesos for my tiny tupperware.

Well thanks for telling us. Now we know where to order a lot of raw sea urchin. She’s going back to Ilocos on Monday. And be back in a few days. While we wait for our next batch of uni sashimi… maybe 2 kilos will do… ha ha ha… pig out!

Persistent Cold: Putting my 5 year old girl on a fast for 2 days

by

Our 5 year old girl was absent from school the whole week last week due to a very bad cold that made it hard to breath and made coughing painful in her chest. Although her mother gave her anthroposophic and homeopathic medicines for relief, her cold still persists and I am getting impatient.

In that week we tried to put her on paleo diet but with some soup and some cooked meat. No final cure.

This Saturday I handed down the law. Raw paleo diet. Sunday she does juice fasting. Freshly squeezed orange juice and some coconut juice and some coconut meat. Tomorrow Monday this juicing will continue but I will add Henry Bieler’s soup with zucchini, string beans, celery, and parsley. Then it will be raw paleo diet the whole week for her.

If we still have problems then it might truly be the construction dust filled air in our current condominium. I will probably temporarily live in a beach with her for a few days. Sounds like fun. We should do it anyway.

Ajinomoto Brands Aspartame as “AminoSweet”

by

“Aminosweet: Only Sugar Tastes as Good.” This is the marketing line on the front banner of the Ajinomoto EU website today February 14, 2010. “Ajinomoto Sweeteners Europe markets AminoSweet® Aspartame throughout Europe, the Confederation of Independent States (CIS), the Middle East and Africa.”

The company of course in the effort to make money and with the awareness from many people that aspartame = bad seems branding under the registered name “Aminosweet” will help them sell this artificial sweetener to the public.

Now personally, we do not use artificial sweeteners in our home. We use real raw honey. And raw fruits in season are sweet enough.

As far as my opinion on why we do not use any sweeteners other than real raw honey is because I do not want my children having a sweet tooth. My target is for my family to be on a paleo diet with high fat, low carb. I do not believe in consuming too much carbohydrates. Nor do I believe in consuming artificial non-foods such as artificial sweeteners.

We’ve got to keep our health up. Paleo diet rocks. Pure food only. No condiments.

Is it bad to eat a lot of Pineapple?

by

I answered a question over at CavemanForum.com giving my 2 cents about pineapples:

Well today my dad bought a little box with sliced pieces of “Del Monte” pineapples. I’ve been craving them lately and I hate the whole box… Undecided

I wanted to know if anyone knows if they add any type of preservatives or sugar into their pineapples or the liquid at the bottom of the container? Well thanks anyways guys.

Lose Weight and Gain Health at the Same Time

by

I’m just here to make this little blog post to add my before and after pictures to the cacophony of multitudes of people who have discovered the not so secret truth about losing weight.  The more important thing is the even more elusive concept of losing weight and GAINING health.

In my pictures below you will see me at the end of the year 2001 at age 32 in my probably fattest time at 170 pounds and size 38 inch waistline pants.  Boy, was I heavy and I didn’t realize it at that time.  Weight gain just creeps up on you.

At some point you must learn to listen to the people around you if they think you look FAT.  The funny thing was my grandma always equated FAT with healthy.  I may have taken comfort at that opinion.  But I was heavy, sickly, not able to do much physical activity… couldn’t carry my weight on the monkey bars!

I was driven to lose weight and I found a long time friend who was able to crack the “secret” as well.

During the whole course of many years I learned many secrets.  I learned new paradigms.  I learned that the mainstream paradigms about health and diet were mostly completely and disastrously wrong!  The mainstream health paradigms were making me fat and sick.

In short I learned a lot of new things that has given me health I never imagined I’d achieve in my life.  This is already a life record for me.

This will be a long story and probably will be noted on a future ebook.  Copyrighted photos guys.  No lifting please.  Visit my website http://www.curemanual.com to learn how this is done.
