Did you know that the Seventh-day Adventist Church is a Church that promotes a healthy lifestyle? There are literally tens of thousands of Vegetarians and Vegans who are Seventh-day Adventist Christians. Look for a Christian Church that has some things in common with your Health needs.

Seventh-day Adventist Christians preach the everlasting Gospel and keep the Biblical Sabbath(Saturday) day Holy. Sabbath School begin at 9:30am. Worship begin at 11:00am every Saturday.

God’s true Church believes that Jesus is God.

God’s true Church believes in the Trinity.

God’s true Church believes in the death of Christ on the Cross.

God’s true Church will uphold the Moral Law(Ten Commandments)

God’s true Church will Baptize by Immersion not Sprinkling.

God’s true Church will not eat Unclean Foods(Pork, Catfish, etc.)

God’s true Church will be a Worldwide Church preaching the message of Christ.

God’s true Church will teach Biblical literal six day Creation. NO Evolution.

God’s true Church will have the gift of Prophecy.

God’s true Church will preach Salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ.

God’s true Church will stand against Sexual Immorality. Homosexuality, Adultery and Fornication are Sins.

God’s true Church will preach against Strong drink. Alcohol is not allowed. (Proverbs 20:1).

Remember God’s true last day Church will not be a popular Church. Most people will attack God’s Biblical Church with vigilance. Satan himself will attack God’s Church(Revelation 14:12) Truth crushed to the ground will always rise to the top.

Where can I find PANTS (made with naturals fibers or/an organic cotton or/and hemp or/and linden ?

July 23rd, 2010

"Anybody know where can I find ORGANIC PANTS (cotton or/and hemp or/and linden or/and natural fiber) But in real NAVY COLOR…They have to be fully natural fiber because I do react to all synthetic fabric…include spandex in small quantity. it’s for a Uniform so I can’t change the color… Also, it could be great if the price is under 70 $ Canadian dollars. Been searching for all ever on the web ! Thanks to anyone for any help."

MEC carries quite a few organic cotton items (both their own brand and others, such as prana and blurr). here is one (its a women’s version but also come in men’s, called journeyman pants):

a lot of companies are using organic cotton now – patagonia, prana, blurr, etc. so check them out.

hope this helps.

What does tanning bronzer with hemp do?

July 23rd, 2010

I saw this tanning bronzer (http://www.performancebrands.com/info.php?id=170) and it said with hemp. What does that mean? I mean weed is obviously illegal so it can’t provide any of its benefits in the bronzer. What does it mean then?

Could the use of Hemp solve most of the Problems in the U.S. Today?

July 23rd, 2010

It has more industrial uses than oil.
It can be turned into oil, Henry Ford made a Model T that ran on Hemp Oil.
The use of Hemp Oil would allow us to use corn for food again solving the Food Price Problem.
1 acre of hemp can make as many Newspapers as 20 acres of Lumber. Would solve Deforestation concerns and Global Warming Concerns.
Can be grown and have very little or no THC in so it wouldn’t be a drug problem.

You’ve only scratched the surface as to the multitude of uses of hemp, it’s one of the most versatile plants on the planet. It wouldn’t be a cure-all, but it would be a good start.

Are Protein Shake Diets safe?

July 23rd, 2010

Is it safe to replace meals with protein shakes for about 2 weeks max? Whey Protein and Hemp Protein.

Diet of only protein is not recommended. But one of protein and fat is a safe way to go (fats are used as the fuel source instead of carbs). I’ve known quite a few people who have great success using it to jumpstart a weightloss diet. Just google around at the fitness forums for fitness logs about keto diets, the "velocity diet" or ckd diet.

New vegan and constipated? HELP?

July 23rd, 2010

Hey, i have been vegan for about 3 months now.
The beginning was great, but now I am having problems with bloating, gas, and constipation.
My diet consists of fruit, vegetables, salads, nuts, nut butters, whole grains, seeds, beans…
I thought I wasn’t getting enough protein so I purchased some hemp protein powder that I now put in my smoothies.

I thought after 2 months my body would have adjusted, but no ):
Maybe I need to take some probiotics to help restore my intestinal flora? (read this on the internet)
Should I cut back on fiber? (but everything I eat is fiber?)

I am just always bloated.

Yes, I have tried:

- exercising
- drinking tea
- chewing food really well for digestion
- eating smaller meals

And trust me I drink more than enough water.
yes, i cut out soy milk/products as it was causing a lot of problems.

i will hold back on the beans.

i was a vegetarian and use to eat a lot of processed, "junk" food, along with a lot of dairy. biggg pizza & icecream lover.

now i am vegan and have been eating the healthiest ever, yet my stomach has a hard time getting use to it.

I had digestive problems as well (though mine were the opposite ^^) after going vegan.

Did you transition hard or was the change made gradually? Any serious shift in diet can take a toll on your digestive system and sometimes it has a hard time bouncing back.

Have you tried cutting out foods that you didn’t eat very much of before you went vegan and figuring out if any one thing is causing it by process of elimination? Sometimes you’ll reveal odd food sensitivities once you clear your body and are consuming lots of other things to replace your animal proteins/products. I, for instance, ended up being allergic to soy milk, lol.

Remember that heavier foods like nut butters, whole grains, etc. can contribute to constipation, and processed foods are never that helpful to /any/ plight. Maybe you just need to rebalance what you’re eating and place more emphasis on fresh fruits/veg?

After 2 months, you may want to talk to a nutritionist and work out a vegan diet that works for your body. Just remember that not all of them are open to alternative diets/lifestyles and to place emphasis that this is what you want to do and would prefer their guidance in doing in the right way — not their nagging to eat dairy or fish.

Is hemp clothing worth the extra cost regardless of any other issues?

July 23rd, 2010

Hemp clothing can and often does cost more than 4 times as much as a comparable cotton item.

As far as life or durability of item is hemp worth the cost.

That is can I expect 4 or more times the life from a pair of hemp jeans?

I know of a lot of issues regarding cotton but can I justify the extra cost of hemp product(s) on durability alone?

http://www.hemperjeans.com/why-hemp-jeans.html

I didn’t even know they existed, until I saw your post. But now that I have, I may start saving for my first pair. I found that link very helpful.

how to make oil from hemp seeds?

July 23rd, 2010

no I want to try to make medicine, the hemp oil from the seed is a really good thing to eat.
you can buy them already bottled at the grocery store. Hemp seed oil.

You’re better off buying the oil pre-pressed from the store. The amount of plants to make the seeds needed to produce a steady supply of oil would be a felony here in the US.
