Liver and Gallbladder

Lastly in regards to body functions is the gallbladder and liver.  These guys must effectively excrete chemicals and toxins from the body and with the Candida cleanse, years of toxins will be stimulated to release from your body.  I didn't know this, but the bile, stored in the gallbladder, helps break down fats.  Over time this can become thick and muddy after eating lots of cheese, trans fats and sugar.  - The Candida Cure, Ann Boroch.

Just the thought of this and picturing this in my body wants to make me do the cleanse.  I know people do these cleanses all the time, so maybe I should give it a try too.

Breakfast was the usual brown rice cereal and with organic 2% milk.  What's interesting is that a week ago I bought regular oatmeal.  I usually bought the dinosaur oatmeal from Quaker, but made the decision that it had too much sugar in it and I didn't want my son to eat it anymore.  Jeannette would be able to eat this kind of oatmeal I bought, and it would be better for all of us.  Well, this morning I made my son the regular oatmeal.  I did put in some brown sugar to sweeten it a bit, but I'm sure it was much less than the dinosaur oatmeal.  Well, he decides this morning that he doesn't want it anymore.  I guess the more healthier kind is just too bland for him.  This is my 10 year old, bland eater boy I'm talking about.  Oatmeal couldn't be more bland.  Oh well, strike that off the list for him now.

We were heading out of town so I had to pack the kids their dinner.  I knew that eating on the road, especially with Jeannette's diet, was going to be hard.  I made some pasta last night, so I put the pasta in a heated thermos.  I buttered it already and all she had to add was the parmesan cheese.  After awhile, the kids got hungry, so they had some popcorn which I popped earlier.  I knew they'd be hungry in the car.

Getting ready to go out of town is really a challenge.  I had to make sure I had all her supplements packed as well as the magic bullet I use to make her shakes.  Then I have to make sure I have all her snacks, soy nut butter, bread, butter, hemp milk, etc.  I had 2 whole grocery bags full of extra food.  It's not easy having to pack for someone with special dietary needs.
