There are currently four ways of eating that seem to produce the very best health and relief from a huge number of medical conditions, from T2D to asthma, from arthritis to seizures. Well worth taking a look at them - keto, low carb high fat, paleo & carnivore.
I actually had to look up keto :oops: . Never heard of it. Fortunately only thing I suffer from is asthma. Has been moderate all my life. Not like some poor cases you hear of. My mother does suffer from knee arthiritis though so maybe this info could be of help
Not worried about powering the whole house,just eating hot food,getting a brew,seeing through the dark,and staying warm.

Interesting stuff in there.
thats quite a good book to buy, i own a copy, its in the top twenty books on medical information, but it does have an americian writer which makes cross reffering to uk meds a tad interesting as you have to use a couple of uk books to research it

Also works for those with asthma - if it doesn't stop it completely, it certainly reduces severity quite significantly. The science is complex yet simple, well worth looking into & if nothing else, give it a shot, you've nothing to lose :)

Looks good.

I've got copies of "Where there is no Doctor" and "Where there is no Dentist". Both written for use now in 3rd world countries. However, the advice would be good in any grid down situation.

There's an interesting point ... is there a memory card or something that I can plug in to my kindle to augment its memory? I've already had to take it back to factory default settings and just download the things I particularly want, but its building up again :lol:
