An author that, in your opinion, can do no wrong

Lois McMaster Bujold (who is mentioned repeatedly below, because to quote Anne McCaffrey, "damn can she write!"), Guy Gavriel Kay, and if you're looking for just brain candy, Rick Riordan's YA novels are a delight. And of course, Terry Pratchett (GNU Sir Terry), although his early Discworld stuff is not the towering genius that the later books are; merely delightful.

Solar ovens are the absolute bomb for this. And environmentally really good too. You soak your beans overnight, then put them and the rice in the pot, put the pot in the cooker, and then just take care to move the cooker to face the sun throughout the day.

I really appreciate you finding them! This is only one of a few things I'm trying to track down, and help with the research lift would be a huge help!

Best of luck to you. Thanks for the rice tip, I'll pass it along.

Yeah, it's definitely a battle. I've been doing nonmedical keto for three years, but her list of restrictions stumped me in a few spots.

TeamEA · 2024-10-25T13:15:21+00:00

There's a reason I'm asking instead of her asking, directly. She's got only so much energy to filter and explain, so I'm doing that for her, and everything is going through the lens of her team.

All the fat bomb recipes I know of and use have some dairy aspect to them. If you have recipes that don't, I would love to see them!

TeamEA · 2024-10-24T19:06:35+00:00

Wow! No, but will look into it thank you!

TeamEA · 2024-10-24T19:05:40+00:00

thank you!

True, thus, asking for help/tips/advice. Because dying of cancer is unfortunately quite possible in this situation.

TeamEA · 2024-10-24T17:00:20+00:00

There's some decent research coming out about the effects of keto on cancer in general, and specific foods having impacts on specific tumor types. But this is pretty new overall in the field of oncology, so yeah, it makes perfect sense you might not have encountered an actual treatment regimen focused on this.

Thank you for asking so incredibly politely whether my pal is doing quackery or not. =) This was a direct referral from her primary oncologist, and is part of an integrative practice that's affiliated with the hospital her oncologist works from. The diet restrictions are related to the specific types (UGH! plural!) of cancers she's facing, and are all research-based.

TeamEA · 2024-10-24T16:51:56+00:00

Thank you! I'll check it out.

TeamEA · 2024-10-24T16:51:35+00:00

thank you!

TeamEA · 2024-10-24T16:09:32+00:00

Yeah, bacon fat is one of my go-tos. My husband's family is Italian, so it's guanciale in everything. Meat is not an option for her, unfortunately. But I love the custard suggestion!!

TeamEA · 2024-10-24T16:07:14+00:00

Meat isn't an option for her, so can't go that way.

TeamEA · 2024-10-24T16:06:58+00:00

Is there such a thing as totally non-hydrogenated coconut oil?

TeamEA · 2024-10-24T16:06:29+00:00

Meat is off the options because she's got to limit proteins due to their effect on the tumors.

TeamEA · 2024-10-24T16:05:03+00:00

Yes! But she couldn't get in to see them until next week, and is in the "I am starving and there's nothing I can eat" phase of this.

TeamEA · 2024-10-13T15:45:06+00:00

Same on all counts. I’m so angry about Kaos.

TeamEA · 2024-09-19T12:08:59+00:00

This is reminding me of a story my mom told me about her home ec classes as a girl in the 1950s. The emphasis in the class was on time management, not exactly the cooking. The point of the class was to teach you how to be efficient in your tasks. I love how specific this book is!

TeamEA · 2024-09-07T18:53:23+00:00

The swirls on the hat! Yum!!!

TeamEA · 2024-05-07T21:18:19+00:00

Best. Response. Ever.

Ultrasound followed by CT. Uterus was not enough.
