PURPOSE
« on: November 09, 2019, 05:01:20 AM »
We all value good health. Health is especially important to those of us who desire to create and maintain a self-sustaining lifestyle. To those of us who appreciate having more control over our home, finances, and personal choices, taking charge of our wellness is very important. The purpose of this forum is to educate on the topic of maintaining good health, natural ways to recover from illness and injury, and steps we can all take toward accomplishing this for the long term.

We will cover many topics including:


·
Nutrition and avoiding illness
· How to stock your medicine cabinet and BOB
· Avoiding toxic chemicals in the home and on the trail
· Caring naturally for our children and our animals
· Safe food prep and storage at home and in the wild



Moderators Chris and Melissa have decades of experience in natural health as moms and educators; we have experience in animal husbandry, the off-grid lifestyle, and self-protection / self-preservation. We both believe that God designed us all in His image to live in wellness, with purpose and abundance. You are invited to follow along as we share valuable tips, resources, and answer your questions for staying healthy naturally.

Uh, I guess y'all will fuss about my genetically modified cornflakes, or my hormone and antibiotic laced bacon, sausage and fried chicken.

  My grandson just shot a deer and offered to save the liver if I wanted it.  However, since a veterinary friend told me that the liver is the "septic system' of the body, I have steered away from consuming liver.


   Do you agree with my veterinarian friend?

Sorry for the delayed reply, ironglow.
I believe the vet has stated accurately about the function of the liver but as I understand it, toxins are stored in the fat and nervous system but not actually stored in the liver. There is a risk of hypervitaminosis (consuming excessive amounts of a vitamin) so liver may not be healthy to consume daily. It is a very nutrient dense food, with high levels of B vitamins, copper, selenium, phosphorous, and iron. Vitamin A intake from liver can be more than you need but if only consumed maybe twice per week, especially livers of herbivores which do not contain such high levels, you are probably safe. Use your own discretion and feel free to do more research.
