Making jerky!


As part of the "Paleo/ancient Greek-Roman" diet, which I recommend, jerky is about #1 in the "Classical Diet!

In the classical diet, which I think is correct as a "pre-industrial" diet, jerky would have been a mainstay. When you slow cook already lean cuts of meat, in this case beef, your cook off the fat, and wind up with a really lean source of protein.

Also, what a great way to have portable (lunch) protein!

Each Sunday, I enjoy firing up the smoker, putting in some good hardwoods, and letting the smoker "do it's thing". You wind up with the ultimate nutrition source- portable, available, and right there for the upcoming week.

I would recommend making jerky, or, if you must, buying jerky for food "on the go".

It's a natural!

The meats, fish, eggs, vegetables and fruits are to be eaten in unlimited quantities- let your appetite be your guide! Also, what would a good barbarian do in the evening? Why, quaff beer and ale, of course!! I honestly believe that, coupled with a good exercise program, such as is espoused elsewhere in this blog, the above diet will give you the best health you can acquire! It's not really that complicated to eat properly: Just eliminate any "engineered" foods; those things that have been invented, or "engineered" within the past 100 years or so- white flour, sugar, corn sugar, soda pop, candy, (except for limited amounts of dark chocolate!), potato chips and their ilk... you get the idea! Actually, if you think about it, all of this is really just common sense. (If you ignore the press, "diet experts", and the lik...

Removing Unwanted Body Hair

Are laser-assisted hair removal procedures safe? By Dr. Rob for MSN Health & Fitness Q: I've heard horror stories about people who have obtained second-degree burns from laser hair removal procedures. Can this really happen? How safe is the procedure? Are there any alternatives to removing unwanted hair? A: The newer types of laser delivery systems utilize cooling techniques that help to protect the top layer of the skin (epidermis) during treatment, thus lowering the risk for burns. Even so, it is not unusual to experience redness, mild pain and swelling after laser-assisted hair removal. Second-degree burns (severe pain, blistering of the skin) have the potential to occur, but are not common. However, sensitivity to the treatment can vary from person to person. Speak with your physician to discuss realistic expectations and potential side effects prior to any procedure. All lasers are not created equal When discussing laser-assisted hair removal, you may hear names of devi...

Come to the most coveted "Crystal" stem wear-but the actual treasures of the pharmacies we have hats.
