| REC: Cajun Stuffed Pork | 04 Feb 2006 10:48 GMT | 13 |
I just posted a recipe on A.F.D. for an elegant stuffed pork loin roast. It's not a simple or inexpensive recipe but the dish is wonderful both in flavor and presentation. It calls for dried whole grain bread but you could replace part of that with some oatmeal if you wanted to ...

| Fish oil and blood thinning | 03 Feb 2006 13:37 GMT | 26 |
I had heard that Fish oil (Omega 3) was a natural blood thinner. On the advice of a doctor I increased my fish oil supplements from 1-2 grams a day to 4 grams a day. Today I lanced my ring finger to test BG and much to my surprise the blood squirted out so much that it

There is, in another thread, a conversation going on that I find rather interesting and feel like I'd like to open up to the group in general. It is the matter of how in a co-habitational situation the diabetic
