Kevin: Why don’t you just give us a little brief history of why you’re here and then we’ll move onto the real meat.

Nomi: Okay, back in the beginning I started my raw journey, so to speak, about 20 years ago. I had just moved to California and I found myself not feeling well for the gazillionth time in my life. I had sort of a litany of issues and I remember it was around Christmas time where a big table was set up in the back room with all kinds of cakes and Christmas stuff and I subsequently, many years later, found out I really can’t eat wheat. I wasn’t feeling well and not only vague but it was sort of like an intolerance that affected my entire digestive tract and really some of the words to go along with the description would be fibromyalgia, hypoglycemia, mood swings, really severe allergic sinusitis because I had moved from the East to the West Coast where there was pollen at all times, a lot of digestive problems, acid reflux, systemic candida, blah blah blah.

I went to a holistic doctor, Dr. Barney Meltzer. He was in Del Mar, California. One of the things he said to me is I want you to eat 50% of your food raw. And I said to him, the following sentence, which I’ve

since heard 5000 times: How will I get enough protein? That’s the first question and he kind of rolled his eyes and it’s all I can do to keep from rolling my eyes. Really, Kevin, it was just simple for me to go 50% raw. I’ve always been kind of a good cook. People eat raw food in their daily life. They eat coleslaw, they eat salad, even if it’s just lettuce and a slice of tomato on their McDonald burger or something. It’s not like an alien entity. I just upped it. My hypoglycemia at that time was so bad, I don’t know if this has ever happened to you but I used to fall asleep while I was driving. I could get in the car all alert and literally wink off and it’s like a miracle that I didn’t kill someone or get killed. And what I did for that is this doctor said just carry around a pocket full of almonds. Raw almonds and when you start to get that feeling, that sort of sleepy feeling, or even before that if you know it happens every hour or whatever, just chew slowly on a couple of almonds. I mean this literally almost overnight cured that situation. I’m not talking about your driving tired. I’m talking about, you think you’re fine, then you get in the car and you start nodding off. That had to do with my combination of food and eating too many carbs and stuff like that too.

So anyways, it was pretty dramatic, just the 50% change and after a year of doing 50% I went to one of the several places in the country where you can go for a three week retreat where it’s wheatgrass juice and buckwheat and sunflower sprouts, and lots of raw food, only raw food and classes and that was very profound for me. I lost some weight and everything was completely cleared up from that. Just like serendipity, within 6 months I was working at the world-renowned Hippocrates Health Institute. I’m talking 20 years ago now. I’m going to tell you, I was 44 years old when I started this journey and I just want to share with you that I’m going to be 65 years old in 2008 and I really feel like I should throw a big party and show people what 65 can look like and frankly, if I had started younger it would look even better.

Kevin: So why don’t you talk a little bit about the Hippocrates Institute and we’ll get into the meat of what raw food can do for you therapeutically.

Nomi: I’m glad you asked this Kevin because there’s a lot of buzz about raw food, a lot of books, a lot of restaurants and there’s a big stress on the gourmet, culinary aspects and I sometimes wonder if there aren’t some people out there, whether they’re chefs or whether they’re teachers

who really don’t exactly understand or know that this came from a therapeutic point of view, a way to cleanse and heal yourself without necessarily having to get involved with the medical community.

And really I think my book is one of the very first books that introduced this whole kind of more gourmet and palatable subject. And there’s nothing wrong at all with all the delicious things that are happening. It’s just that I don’t want to see people forget that it’s grounded in something that’s good for you, so really raw food is on a continuum or a spectrum, all the way from therapeutic up to gourmet.

What I mean by that is you can talk about water-fasting, for example, or juice fasting where, with water fasting you are resting and it’s best to be supervised and you are literally only drinking water. What happens when you do that is, after a few days the energy that your body normally uses to digest, assimilate and eliminate is going into healing. It can be very profound. Then you can do carrot juice combinations and there’s lots of people who have stories to tell about that like Reverend George Malcolm or Dr. Lorraine Day both of whom are pretty important people in the raw food movement because they both had a really serious cancer and they feel that they were able to become well by juice fasting. Then you can get into, and this is what a lot of the retreats do, they have some juices

but they also have good simple raw food. You again have that cleansing, de-toxifying factor. Then there’s your everyday raw food, somewhere in the middle between this kind of severe and simple raw food, somewhere between that and the really gourmet, multi-nuts, all kinds of sauces, is your everyday, at home, how to eat raw food because a lot of people are really committed to being anywhere from 50% to 100% raw. They do see a health difference. Really depending on who you are and where you’re coming from is where you’re going to be on that continuum. If you for example, have a cancer you want to be on the more therapeutic end of it.

Kevin: Let me ask you this. What is kind of an ideal balance, say throughout a year, of therapeutic to gourmet? I mean, is there a percentage? 50% therapeutic? 10% gourmet? The rest in between? What do you think is ideal?

Nomi: If only I could answer it because each of us is so unique. If there were one exactly right way to eat, let’s say in this case because I have a book, The Raw Gourmet and I’m considered to be an exact, if there was just one right way to eat raw food I’d be a gazilionaire. The reason there isn’t is that because each of us is so unique. Some people can eat almost all fruit with a little bit of green. Many other people, they just can’t. That’s just all there is to it. People do get confused. They go, I don’t know who to listen to, I read this book, this says that or this person they said that, and the reason for that confusion is, people kind of want to be told what to do.

I mean, we grew up in awe of the medical community and our parents before us did, and they go, well the doctor said to take this pill, the doctor said to do this, do that. And people have given away their power in terms of their health. I’m faced with people constantly asking me what should I eat and how shall I do it. Gee, I wish I could answer that for you but I’m going to have to toss that right back in your lap and you are going to have to experiment. It’s all experiential. It’s just not a religion or a philosophy. It’s what you eat. You have to do it to know. If eating a certain way works for you I can almost guarantee it’s not going to work for your wife, or your spouse or your kids or your brother. So it’s an impossible question to answer. How much plain and simple and how much really gourmet can one person take in.

One big common mistake though, so that people learn, like from the Ann Wigmore books or from going to one of the therapeutic kind of places, Hippocrates is one of them, and they’re pretty gourmet, but there’s also a place in California and a place in Texas called Optimum Health Institute. A place in Michigan called Michigan Creative Health Institute and the food is very very simple. People think that’s the way you eat forever but that’s really what they’re really presenting is the cleansing and the healing. You can’t usually eat that way forever because it’s not going to be enough calories in there for you or even enough variety. So it’s a learning process. Fortunately or unfortunately each person really has to learn for themselves. certainly help people do it, in consultations, but it isn’t an easy question.

Kevin: What do you think are some of the best ways or most efficient ways to experiment on yourself when when you’re doing this?

Nomi: I think that whatever you decide, from reading or taking a class or whatever, is what you want to do, I think you need to try it out and as the days and weeks go by, see how you feel. If you’re losing too much weight or not losing enough weight or if the initial uncomfortable feeling,

which can happen when you cleansing and de-toxifying, tummy aches, head aches, aren’t going away, you need to revisit. One person can eat two avocados a day, another should only eat two a week, that kind of thing. I do think that a lot of people, my peers, who are writers and teachers in the community, have a tendency to if something works for them to then instruct that that’s how you do. But I’ve learned from long experience there simply is no one right way. I’ll give you an example. I had an employee come to my house several years ago. We each made smoothies for ourselves. Mine was — I’ll give you my favorite Green Smoothie. She used some sort of nut milk and some nuts and a few other things, some different fruits. I want to tell you I would have been sick for three days if I had made that for myself. It was just too rich, too filled with multiple nuts. This was a woman who was way thinner than I am. That’s what she needed. She knew what she needed. I would have been nauseous initially and felt ill for, so it’s really that is why people are confused. They read something, it won’t work for them. That’s the thing: there is no one guru.

If you are an experienced photographer you will probably already know about taking infrared pictures using your digital camera and this article will not be of that much value to you, but if you are new to both infrared photography and maybe even to digital photography then read on to learn more.

Not too many years ago there were no such thing as digital photography and you would run around with a camera will film that might take fantastic pictures but if had all the disadvantages of a camera using films. To take IR (Infrared) pictures you would need to purchase special films that would cost you an arm and a leg. Secondly you would have the trouble of the black and white processing of the films once you had taken the pictures.

And to finish off you would not be able to evaluate the pictures that you took before the whole roll of film was used and the pictures had been processed and printed. All in all this would take you a lot more time and cost you a substantial amount compared to the digital solutions that are available today.

Today you will need to have a digital camera but as we are soon entering the second decade in the second millennium there are not many people left that doesn’t own at least one digital camera. Now it is not enough to just have a simple cheap digital camera bought in the grocery shop around the corner but you will not need to re-finance your house either.

By investing in a fairly prices $500-$1000 digital camera you can easily get high quality and be able to take the infrared pictures that you want. Not only will you save the time and hassle of processing the pictures as they will be instantly available but you are also able to evaluate them as soon as your finger has left the trigger by looking at the little LCD screen on the camera. If you are not pleased with the result you can just deleted it, adjust the settings and shoot another one.

The quality of your infrared photographs will depend on how your camera’s sensor array reacts to the infrared and secondly it will depend on the filter you are using and how it reacts to the far end of the visible spectrum. I suggest that you start by consulting with the guy in the photo shop about what camera he will recommend for the use you are planning and then you should search the internet for reviews and comments from people that have already tried and tested the digital cameras that he has recommended.

Infrared photos versus black/white photos.

At the first glance a monochrome picture taken with an infrared camera filter will mostly look identical to every other black and white picture. However if you have a closer look you will see the differences. The objects which are bright in the visible light will appear dark while some of the objects that are normally dark will have a fair glowing light.

The biggest difference between the infrared spectrum and the visible spectrum is in the case of foliage. Foliage becomes very bright in infrared as you will be able to see if you have ever taken infrared pictures before.

Next time you are out shooting infrared pictures try to do a few black and white ones as well and you will quickly be able to see the differences that I have just mentioned.

I am glad that the digital cameras have come to ease our infrared photography and I hope that you are too. It is a time saver as well as a money saver.

Lanyards are mainly designed to hold identity cards, passports and ID cards have access. These are often a rope or cable, which is worn round the neck, their view of the map.

There are two main formats for transceivers. They are Ultra High Frequency (UHF) radio and Very High Frequency (VHF) radio. Neither band is intrinsically better than others. All have their pros and cons. Both formats are effective ways to communicate with other people. But how do you decide which suits your needs? We go through the main components of the two frequencies to choose you.

UHF Radio

UHF radio operates between l 'Frequencies of 300 MHz and 3000 MHz Until recently, no, it was widespread. Now the radio is the UHF frequency for GPS, Bluetooth, cordless phones are used, and WiFi.

There are no more available channels with UHF so in more populated areas UHF may be less likely to have interference from other systems. If you're in an area where the population is thin, but it should work, VHF for you. Not long ago, the FCC has also opened a new FM frequency, called Murs previously used is not strong in many areas.And 'more Murs down VHF. If you are in an area where interference from other radio equipment can be a problem, UHF transmitters and receivers may be the best choice if you are using a VHF radio Murs. UHF is better penetrate physical obstacles like walls, buildings and rugged landscape. Everything is hampered a radio wave, weakening a radio signal. UHF and been weakened. Although it can not travel so far from radio waves penetrate obstacles better than UHF FM.

Tohighlight the differences in the indoor range is the following is an excerpt from a pamphlet by two leading makers predicted two-way radio on a range of lines of handheld VHF and UHF radio:

"Estimates of coverage: At full power, line-of-sight, does not hinder the range of about 4 miles +. VHF indoor coverage is about 270,000 square meters and 300,000 square meters, on UHF. Waited about 20 floors of vertical coverage VHF and UHF up to 30 floors. Note: The scope and coverageEstimates and are not guaranteed. "

FM waves do not penetrate walls very well, buildings and rocks. Therefore, the field will be significantly reduced for VHF radios in these environments. This is not necessarily a problem if the area is required, a few hundred meters. You can also use an external antenna to an FM indoor base stations will be used to reduce or eliminate this problem.

One disadvantage of UHF is that the FCC, you must obtain a license to operate inthese frequencies. Although many frequencies in the VHF and businesses need a license. If you have a radio frequency range VHF MURS can operate without a license. UHF equipment is usually more expensive. The components must be improved, and are expensive to build. This does not mean it is necessarily better, just more expensive.

One advantage of UHF transmission is physically short wave that is generated by high frequency. This means that the antenna onThe radio can also be shorter than a VHF radio equivalent.

FM Radio

VHF radio operates between the frequencies of 30 MHz and 300 MHz FM radio, two way radios and televisions work in this area.

Both VHF and UHF radios are sensitive to the line of view factors, but VHF a little 'more. The waves make the trees and rugged landscapes, but not as good as UHF frequencies fact. However, if a 'wave and a wave UHF FM were transferred in an area withoutBarriers, would be the FM waves travel almost twice as far. This makes it easier for VHF, the exhibition on a wide range. If you work mostly outdoors, an FM radio is probably the best choice, especially if you use a base station inside and add the external antenna.

From VHF to become longer and not so complicated, the equipment is generally cheaper than comparable UHF radio equipment. A disadvantage of this device is its size. Since the frequency of the wavesare larger, the antenna must be greater.

VHF radios also have a smaller number of available frequencies. Interference with other wireless devices may be more of a problem. However, the FCC recently, this is less a problem when they opened the frequencies murs. The 150 MHz spectrum is a national service called murs. MURS stands for Multi-Use Radio Service. This service is for use in the United States and Canada. This is a low-power, short-rangeService in the VHF 150 MHz Citizens Band radio frequencies. There are 5 MURS channels in the frequency range with 38 privacy codes under each one that you select only collect calls through the code. The FCC, not the users of products to be licensed Murs.

With Murs, you can improve a larger antenna or the external sector. If you want to put an antenna on your house or business, you can do with murs. Some antenna manufacturers claim an external antenna canIncrease the power radiated by a transmitter by a factor of 4 This MURS intercoms can transmit up to four miles, and perhaps also with an external antenna, depending on the terrain.

One advantage of the wireless FM radio is that the battery is almost always better than similar units UHF. For portable radios is a plus.

VHF equipment is usually a lower cost to the budget in one. The equipment can be cheaper than UHF products.

In summary, if youPlanning to use your radios in particular, inside buildings, then UHF is probably the best solution for you. If you are primarily using your radio for communication to the outside, then VHF would be a good choice. Both wireless technologies for you, if you have not really cover a long row. In this case, you can select FM for its low cost.

The Indian telecom regulator's (TRAI) recommendations dated August 2007, incited the riots of applications for cellular licenses contained on guard against, like lemming approach of assistance to those who read. Jaundice was seen by eyes, but is simply a recommendation to limit the number of service providers. One would expect more intelligence from those not set a proxy server, or queue, the futures in the spectrum.

Macrolides are a class of antibiotics such as broad-spectrum antibiotics, which are known for a wide range of bacterial infections. Macrolides are produced by Streptomyces species is native. They have a common lactone ring macrolytic which one or more sugars linked. They are from each other in their chemical substitutions on structures of different carbon atoms and neutral sugars and amino acids in different ways.

Macrolides are one of the oldest classes of antibiotics. MacrolidesAntibiotics have been considered among the best tolerated antibiotics for almost 50 years. The first member of the class, erythromycin was discovered in 1952. Newer macrolides, azithromycin, clarithromycin and dithromycin semisynthetic macrolides are similar in structure to erythromycin. These resources have been developed to overcome problems with erythromycin al. The newer macrolide antibiotics offer the advantage of fewer adverse gastrointestinal effects of erythromycin and dosingSchemes only once or twice a day. The newer macrolides also have a broader spectrum of antibacterial activity of erythromycin. The latest generation of macrolides, ketolides, whose clinical use is in the early stages, for the best activity against some strains are resistant.

Macrolides advantages and disadvantages

Macrolides disadvantages:
severe allergic skin reactions
Arrhythmias
many interactions with other drugsincluding extension of the INR
Resistance to macrolides is reported for 20% to 30% of Streptococcus pneumoniae

The new macrolide advantages:
broad-spectrum antibacterial
easy to use, convenient dosing regimens – daily or twice daily dosing
Side effect profiles (low incidence of gastrointestinal side effects). A key feature of macrolides is the excellent safety profile that allows the drug to be used for the width of all ages –Groups
Macrolide antibiotics as a group, are generally safe in pregnancy
Excellent tissue and intracellular penetration
greater stability of acid

Mechanism

The mechanism of action of macrolides is inhibition of bacterial protein synthesis by binding reversibly to the 50S subunit of bacterial ribosome and inhibit translocation of peptidyl-tRNA. This measure of growth is primarily bacteriostatic (inhibition and growth of bacteria), butmay be bactericidal in high concentrations. Macrolides tend to accumulate in leukocytes, and are therefore actually transported to the site of infection.

Macrolides bind to the large ribosomal subunit near the peptidyl transferase center and cause cell growth arrest through inhibition of protein synthesis.

Macrolides spectrum of antibacterial activity

Macrolides have activity against many gram-positive bacteria (with the exception of enterococci andMethicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus), and have variable activity against gram-negative respiratory pathogen Mycobacterium avium infections, gonorrhea. Macrolide antibiotics for the accumulation and activity against intracellular pathogens such as Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Chlamydia pneumoniae and Legionella spp noted. In addition to antimicrobial activity, macrolides can modify the functions of the host cell.

Clarithromycin and azithromycin have similar spectrum toErythromycin, but greater activity against Haemophilus, Mycobacterium avium intracellular, and toxoplasma. Azithromycin has increased gram-negative activity, while clarithromycin has increased gram-positive activity.

Spectrum
Gram-positive (methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae (only PSSP), Group and viridans streptococci, Bacillus sp., Corynebacterium sp.).
Erythromycin and clarithromycin show the bestActivities (clarithromycin> erythromycin> azithromycin).
Gram-negative (H. influenzae, M. catarrhalis, Neisseria sp.).
Newer macrolides (clarithromycin and azithromycin) have enhanced activity (azithromycin> clarithromycin> erythromycin).
Anaerobes. Activity against anaerobes of the upper respiratory tract.
Atypical bacteria. All urealyticum macrolides with excellent activity against atypical bacteria including: Legionella pneumophila – DOC, Chlamydia sp., Mycoplasma sp. Ureaplasma.
OtherBacteria. Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC Ц only A and C), Treponema pallidum, Campylobacter, Borrelia, Bordetella, Brucella, Pasteurella.

Indications for macrolides

Macrolide antibiotics have antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacteria, some Gram-negative bacteria and intracellular pathogens. The spectrum of antibacterial activity, with excellent intra-and the combination of tissue penetration has led to widespread use of this classDrugs in respiratory diseases. Macrolide antibiotics, anti-inflammatory properties in several models in vitro and in vivo studies have shown.

Macrolides are the treatment of:
Respiratory infections (sinusitis, pharyngitis, lower respiratory tract infections)
Infections of skin and soft tissue
STDs
Cervicitis, urethritis
Mycobacterial infections
H. Infection pylori (clarithromycin, as part of triple combination therapy)

Macrolides arevaluable alternatives to penicillins and cephalosporins in allergic patients.

This group of antibiotics has been used widely in children for their antibacterial activity against diseases such as diphtheria, whooping cough, pneumonia, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Legionella and Chlamydia.

Effects

The macrolides are well tolerated substances. The most common side effects are gastrointestinal symptoms (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, dyspepsia, abdominal pain and cramps). Effectsare more frequent and severe with erythromycin therapy. Azithromycin and clarithromycin have fewer gastrointestinal side effects than erythromycin.

Allergic reactions, headache, taste disturbance, eosinophilia, reversible hearing loss, and hepatotoxicity is a rare event with all macrolides. Macrolides should be in a serious liver disease due to increased risk of hepatotoxicity and altered handling are avoided. Macrolide are contraindicated if there is a history ofHypersensitivity.

Erythromycin is considered safe in pregnancy and lactation. Clarithromycin is safe in breast feeding (pregnancy category C). The evidence for the safety of azithromycin is lacking, and the use is not recommended, unless the benefits are a potential danger to prevail.

Taking other medicines

Macrolides are divided into 3 groups for the probability of occurrence of drug interactions with other drugs are divided:
Group 1 (eg erythromycin) are often involved
Group 2 (egClarithromycin) are less frequently involved
Group 3 (eg, azithromycin, have not been described Dirithromycin) interactions with other drugs

Both erythromycin and clarithromycin inhibit the activity of cytochrome P450. As a result of these substances to reduce metabolism and increase serum concentrations of other drugs by P450-way eliminated. Azithromycin does not result from differences in their chemical structure of these interactions. FollowingDrugs are known to be affected by erythromycin or clarithromycin:
Anticoagulants
Astemizole
Bromocriptine
Carbamazepine
Cisapride
Cyclosporine
Digoxin
Disopyramide
Ergot alkaloids
Methylprednisolone
Terfenadine
Theophylline and related compounds
Triazolam
