About Susan Lee Ottevanger, Wellness Coach
Expertise
There is nothing on earth more important than your body, your health. With a little knowledge, there is nothing in life you have more power, more control over. If you are tired of feeling bad, stop eating badly. Most of what we eat most of: only a human mistakes this stuff for food. Distinguish real, satisfying food from the mere flavored packing material that keeps you hungry. If you`ve been on every diet twice and are going crazy, I can give you a path to Peace in the Kitchen.

Experience
In the late '80's my weight up and down reached a crisis. Arthritus in my back made it painfull to move. Balancing blood sugar had me eating more often. Eating more, moving less, miserable. My doctor smiled, said "just move more and eat less". This from a medical professional about to burst his buttons. Not a working plan. I knew I had to write my own, so I started researching what was new to put with what sorta worked for me in the past. Eat protein, eat carbs, just not at the same time. Never go around hungry, listen to your body, it can tell you what it needs.

Food Science - Yoghourt


Expert: Susan Lee Ottevanger, Wellness Coach - 7/16/2006

Question
Dear Susan,
We are advised that live Yoghourt containing bifidobacterias is recommended in cases of osteoporosis, amongst other things.  Also that many commercial Yoghourts do not contain the correct or pure forms of these baccillus.
Our parents used to make Yoghourt from full cream milk left standing with a small piece of bread placed in it.
Could you say whether Yoghourt made this way will contain the beneficial bacteria etc.?
Many thanks,
Ken Tourle.

Answer
I can't answer that, but strongly encourage avoiding dairy products - more of a political lobby than a food group. The calcium in modern milk is in a form that removes calcium, not add it. Countries that use the most dairy has the most osteoporosis, and vice versa.
