I am starting this thread because I have found some great products lately that go with the stem cell diet protocols of many companies. The diet I am on is one that says to avoid red meat, alcohol and dairy products for at least 6 months after receiving stem cell therapy. There are some foods listed that are extra beneficial such as avocados, peaches, strawberries, and more. Also, my doctor is one who advocates probiotics. I was shopping this weekend and noticed that Kashi has a new cereal called Vive and it is a probiotic cereal. Yogurt is like this, but yogurt is also a dairy product which was a no no for me. I bought the cereal and will give it a shot. I also found some Voortman Flax Omega 3 cookies with cinnamon that are very tasty.
I just got back from the store and tried to find Nucoa brand margarine that Rose said was non dairy. My store did not have it, but I recall it from several years ago. I am using Smart Balance light which is also non dairy. My picky husband likes it so if it passes that test, it's a done deal at my house.
To explain probiotics I will tell you that on the Kashi box it explains it better than I can, so here goes: Your digestive system is supported by your liver, which helps keep your blood clean and free from unwanted substances. (Dr. Feinerman is always pushing broccoli and here's why) Broccoli contains potent phytonutrients that have been shown to stimulate the liver's cleansing activity. Kashi has added concentrated broccoli extract - the same amount as eating about a half cup of steamed broccoli. One serving of this cereal also provides 20% of the daily intake of calcium and vitamin D for a person that is not on the stem cell diet. Our intake need is higher, but you can count this in the day's tally. Probiotics are friendly bacteria typically found in yogurt and some cheeses. The name literally means "for life" which is not surprising considering their role in digestive balance and immunity. The Kashi cereal has Lactobacillus casei bacteria in it. They give a website to learn more www.probiotics.org Why is all of this important? I believe Dr. Peimer made a point of mentioning in the Ask The Doctor forum that it is important to keep ourselves healthy all around, not just try to fix the damaged parts. Eating right and using certain supplements is a lifelong way to help with this. I am really pleased that more stores are offering organic products that are affordable and that manufacturers are now trying to make products more healthy instead of loading them up with preservatives and addictive additives. The tide is turning at the grocery store. When Jeannine and I received our post stem cell diet regimen some of the Pioneers started coming up with ideas such as chocolate broccoli sundae (made with soy ice cream, of course). We all got a good laugh out of it. Now, we really are going to be eating broccoli for breakfast with this product which is as strange as having it for dessert. I did have a serving and it's actually pretty good and I don't like cereal very much. I added some strawberries to it.
