Old Fashioned Scottish Oatmeal

When McDonald’s recently announced their new oatmeal breakfast, I thought it was time to   pass along  some information I’ve learned from  the Weston A Price Foundation and have employed in my own home for years.

Real oatmeal; that is oatmeal that is  made the traditional way in Scotland is made with old fashioned oats.    They’re cut, not rolled, however rolled oats will do.

 

Because of a substance called phytic acid that can interfere with digestion, all grains are best prepared by soaking them in water over night.  The addition of an inoculant, such as a little bit of live yogurt, furthers the  breakdown of  the digestive inhibiting acid.

Here’s the way it has been done for centuries in Scotland and the method we should follow in our own kitchens.

 

The night before, assemble the following:

 

• 2 cups of  dried organic steal cut or rolled oats (never instant)
• Enough water to cover the oats by an inch or so
• A tablespoon of plain, live cultured yogurt
• 1-2 sticks of (preferably raw) butter
• Organic raisins
• 1 teaspoon  organic vanilla
• 1 teaspoon Celtic salt
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon

 

Stir together the first three ingredients in a pot. Cover and put aside on the counter for 12-24 hours.  24 hours is best.  In the morning, add another cup of water, raisins, salt and cinnamon and cook for a few minutes on medium heat.  Stir once, reduce the flame to low and cover.  Let it gently cook for another few minutes. Just before serving, add butter and vanilla.

This is authentic Scottish oatmeal yet after soaking overnight, it's nearly as quick as instant.

 

Now thars a breakfast fit fur traditional lassies and ladies!

Homeopathy and Radioactivity

Homeopathy has an impressive and extensively documented record with voluminous studies showing its efficacy. It’s been widely used in hundreds of hospitals and clinics for over 200 years. So, many count on its ability to protect from and treat even the most virulent pathologies.

In light of what’s taking place in Japan, I compiled the following information from homeopaths around the world: Israel, India, England, the Netherlands and Canada.

These remedies have been used before, during and after an atomic explosion. Some of these remedies are more difficult to find while some are common to most household kits. All of them are capable, so only one or two are needed.

Pass on this information as it could protect many.

1) Cadmium sulph 30 or Potassium iodide 30 taken once before and once after an atomic explosion. These are generally used before symptoms appear, but can be used after as well.

2) Cobaltum 30 has been known to remove side effects of radiation by taking it four times in one day for 2-3 days. Then an assessment is taken to determine if more is needed and how often. Generally, it's used from that time forward four times in one day every two weeks for 2-3 months. In the hands of a skilled homeopath, this remedy can be used in a 200 potency.

3) Radium bromatum 30 has been used when skin eruptions or arthritis appear. Generally, twice daily if mild and up to 5 times per day if more severe. It has been used for as long as many weeks, but as always, with a watchful eye of a skilled homeopath.

4) Arsenicum album 30 in repeated doses every few minutes and ½ hour after, for approximately 1-2 days….then as needed depending on symptoms.

5) Phosphorus 30 and 200 and 1M one after the other in the same fashion as Arsenicum. Together these have a history of being a very useful 1st aid.
6) Calc fluor 12 and Nat mur 6 thrice daily for months after exposure. More frequently, if necessary. regardless of which other remedies are chosen from above, these two remedies have a way of helping the body eliminate toxins in tandem with the other remedies.

Until and in Addition to Homeopathic Remedies
Here’s a tip from my friend and colleague, Dr. Kaayla Daniel. She suggests that as soon as radioactive exposure is apparent, pour one cup each of baking soda and salt into a hot bath. Submerge and soak for as long as the water stays warm. Don’t add more warm or hot water to the bath unless all of the water is drained and then begin again if the exposure is particularly high.

For God, For Humanity…For Homeopathy

A note from Joette:   I asked my new assistant to do some research on the Vatican’s use of homeopathy.  She filled me in on some striking information.  And now, I want to share it with you, too.

Whether Catholic or not, it’s appropriate for the upcoming season of Lent and food for thought. Enjoy!

 

Italy was rescued from the ravaging cholera epidemic during the first half of the 19^th century.

That’s a fact.

But did you know that the Holy Pontiff saw that it was homeopathy that did the good work? That’s right.  From within the Vatican, the successors of St. Peter himself bestowed accolades and great honors upon homeopaths!

Two popes, in particular, made sure to recognize those physicians who used homeopathic medicine to save many lives from succumbing to the disease.

What’s more, they not only recognized the accomplishments of homeopathic physicians, but actively integrated and encouraged homeopathy within the Vatican.

Yes, indeed.  The Vatican has a history of honoring homeopathy.

Popes publicly acknowledged that homeopaths served the “princes”- “princes” meaning the popes, dignitaries and common people who were cared for by homeopaths.

And so to that end, a famous Italian doctor,

Dr. Settimio Centamori, a homeopathic physician, was awarded the Grand Cross.

(The Grand Cross was the highest honor.)

Bestowed upon a layperson for his work in homeopathy!

This was after his homeopathic treatment restored health to those who had suffered from the deadly cholera epidemic.

But, Pope Gregory XVI didn’t just recognize homeopathy’s effectiveness in the hands of the good doctor, but also issued a Papal Bull, which in cases of emergencies, allowed even the priests to administer remedies.

So Catholic priests administered homeopathic remedies under the orders of the Pope.

Then, Pope Pius IX, continued to honor the works of homeopaths and granted Dr. Charge, the Order of St. Gregory the Great.  This is one of the Five Orders of the Knighthood of the Holy See.

Great honors indeed.

Like Dr. Centamori, Dr.Charge saved many from the cholera epidemic. Among those people cared for by him, only 2.9 % died as compared to up to 70% of those who died after being treated in the conventional hospitals!

What about the pope’s personal treatments?

Well, Pope Leo XIII’s chronic tracheal infections became less serious with homeopathy.

And his homeopathic care apparently added years to his life…… He was the Church’s oldest pope, when he died at 93.

So you see, the Vatican doesn’t just evangelize the Gospel message, but the good news of homeopathy, too!

Fine, you say, that was back in the 19^th century, but what about more recently?

Homeopathy still has its place within the Vatican walls. The late Pope John Paul II was cared for by the respected homeopathic, Dr. Francesco Negro.

He had a choice of any physician, yet, not unlike other learned and noteworthy citizens of Europe, he chose a homeopath.

So, as a Catholic,  I have to acknowledge, if homeopathy is good enough to have been bequeathed with the Papal Grand Cross, is good enough  for Pope Gregory XVl, Pope Pius lX , Pope Leo Xlll and Pope John Paul II,  I guess it’s good enough for me![i]

Shrove Tuesday Gumbo

Here’s a  traditional recipe to start Lent

• 10  oz  andouille sausage  but if you can’t find a good source without nitrates and from quality pork, then  Polish, Italian or any smoked sausage will do.
• 2 cups chicken meat
• raw shrimp (preferably wild)
• ½ cup crab meat

2T lard, tallow or duck fat

• 1 stick organic butter
• file powder (optional) found at gourmet stores
• 3 bay leaves
• 1 whole lemon
• 2 cups okra ( this is optional because some don’t like okra, but I like a more traditional gumbo)
• 2 T fresh parsley
• 1 cup chopped onion
• 1 cup chopped celery
• 1 cup chopped bell peppers
• 3 chopped garlic cloves
• 8 medium chopped organic tomatoes
• 1/4 cup chopped garlic
• 1 sprig fresh  thyme
• 1/2 teaspoon fresh oregano
• 2 tsp paprika
• 1 tsp cayenne(I like more)
• 1 tsp ground peppercorns
• 1 tsp  Celtic or other whole salt
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 2 cups dark beer. (Optional but adds depth)
• 2-3 cups  bone stock. (Homemade is best)
• 3 bay leaves
• 1/4 cup flour or arrow root for thickening

 

Directions

Slice sausage and fry in lard, tallow or duck fat until lightly crisp. Remove  sausage and place in a bowl. In the same pan, fry  chicken pieces on both sides. Set to the side with the sausage.

In the same pan, saute chopped onion, celery, bell peppers, okra and garlic  a few minutes until tender. Add more fat if needed.

In a large pot, combine spices, tomatoes, meat, stock and  beer. Bring to a simmer. Add bay leaves and cover.

Make a roux by melting ½ stick butter in a small pan and then sprinkling four into it until it thickens and is slightly browned.  If you’re on a gluten free diet, do the same with arrowroot powder. You will need to constantly stir this mixture so it doesn't burn.

Add roux to gumbo, cover and simmer for about 2 hour, stirring from time to time.  A few minutes before serving, add the shelled shrimp.  As soon as they pink up, add the juice of the fresh lemon, remove bay leaves, add file powder and serve over cooked rice.

It tastes better the second day, so you might want to prepare this in advance.

Incredible!

Serves 8-10
