Foraging for Mushrooms With Judy
I apologize for some of the audio. During our interview, we had internet connections problems. Sometimes she couldn't hear me, and sometimes I couldn't listen to her. I cleaned the audio up as best I could.
Today we're learning some of the techniques of mushroom foraging from seasoned mushroom hunter Judy Bunonocore. She shares with us how she learned about mushroom foraging. She offers suggestions on beginning mushroom foraging, cleaning and storing your precious finds, books, and mushroom societies that teach foraging here in the northeast, and so much more.

False Turkey Tail – Picture Credit Google Images Creative Commons
Here is a simple way to distinguish between a “true” Turkey Tail and a False Turkey Tail mushroom. (source)
Look at the underside of the mushroom to see if it is entirely smooth. There are a few studies out there that suggest that Stereum ostrae (False Turkey Tail) may have some antibiotic properties (source). However, more research is needed.

Garden Planning 2022 – Gardening For Beginners 👩🌾
Today we're talking about garden planning. Gardening for beginners shouldn't be complicated. Every gardener needs a planting plan. I'll talk about how to plan a simple garden layout for herbs and vegetables.
I'll review a simple colonial-type garden and mention some medicinal herbs that are still grown today from that time period. Then ask you to think about what kind of garden you want to create. An herbal tea garden, a vegetable garden, or a little of everything.
Personally, I'm thinking about adding more flowers. Some for dyeing yarns and fabrics and other flowers for making flower essences.

Aphrodisiac Medicinal Herb Recipes – Improve Sex, Sleep and Make Energy Foods!
Today I'm sharing some simple recipes you can make using aphrodisiacs. There is a lot of history behind the herbal action aphrodisiacs. Some medicinal herbs have multiple herbal actions. Aphrodisiacs can also include herbs as natural antidepressants, increased energy for women and men, better sleep, and yes, improving sex for men with erectile dysfunction and women who have a low sex drive (or just improve your sex in general). We talk about it all!
Recipes we talk about are teas, easy treats such as energy balls, massage oil that soothes sore muscles after a workout, and an easy decadent chocolate treat. This is a recipe that's been in my family for generations.

Dr. Jason Fung: Different Ways to Fast for Weight Loss
There are many different ways to fast. Classic intermittent fasting only allows water. But, for weight loss, there are many different variations of fasting that produce great results. Dr. Jason Fung discusses 8 different ways that you can change up your fasting routine for weight loss.
Dr. Jason Fung’s 6 Part Lecture Series On Obesity – (2013 Lecture Series)
The Obesity Code Lecture (Why do we get Fat?) Part 1
Unlocking the code of why obesity became such a massive epidemic since the 1970s. A scientific exploration with a surprising conclusion of how obesity developed. Practical tips on weight management and good health. Why calorie counting fails for many people. For more see
Hormones in Weight Loss (The Obesity Code Lecture part 2)
Insulin and cortisol are key hormones in weight loss. Our body gains or loses fat based on the hormonal instructions we give it. When insulin is high, we store fat. We discuss why the Atkins diet lost popularity for a time and why it rebounded in new forms. The role of the stress hormone cortisol in weight loss.
Reversing Insulin Resistance (The Obesity Code Lecture part 3)
Exploring the role of insulin resistance and diet. How hormonal obesity theory explains the epidemiology of obesity.
Fructose and Fasting (The Obesity Code Lecture 4)
Why fructose and sugar intake plays such a major role in weight gain and diabetes. Intermittent fasting is a great method of reversing insulin resistance and losing weight.
Diet and Disease (The Obesity Code Lecture part 5)
Exploring the link between diet and disease. How are diabetes, heart disease, stroke, obesity, and cancer linked to our diet? Understanding this association leads to fascinating new treatment possibilities.
Reviews primitive cultures who were healthy until westernized with highly refined foods. These cultures ate high fat and carbohydrate diets and had the lowest insulin numbers and were healthy with little disease.
Is Saturated Fat Bad? (Science says… No!) Obesity Code Lecture 6
Is eating saturated fat bad for us? Does eating fat cause obesity? Heart disease? Stroke? How did we become so fat phobic? Are vegetable oils healthy? A critical look at the wealth of scientific data suggests that eating fat (total) and saturated fat might actually protect us from disease.
