ahem, all kidding aside, what exactly is this "hemp" and where can I get some?

I buy a 5 gallon bucket at a time and split it with the family.
Manitoba Harvest has the best tasting, overall best stock. http://www.manitobaharvest.com/carts...t.asp?start=21

Nut milk: What I do is take about a cup of nuts..whatever ones you want i guess, and let them soak in a jar overnight. Then in the morning i fucking blend them all up with 4 cups of water in my industrial blender type thing. Then I strain a lot of the pulp out so it isn't so fibery, and ad a bit of organic maple syrup. way better for you then soy and tofu milk.

Eating healthy isn't cheap.

5 gallons is like 5 jugs of milk worth. I think that $75 would get one person a hell of a lot of mileage.

I went to go find Hemp Seed today at my store, but there was nothing in the Natural section but Flax seed. I figured it's just as good with Omega3's. I just put two tablespoons in my yogurt and it was delicious.

It's funny, though, a few cities over at my girlfriend's store, they have Hemp Seed. What's up with that? Did I not look hard enough? Hahaha.

Health food store? like Nature's Fair?
Flax seed is amazing. When you buy it try to find it in bulk and organic if possible...but whatever. I like buying the seed bulk and then grinding it up and putting it salad,cereal,etc. Flax doesn't have near th same nutrients as hemp. And honestly, that isn't too expensive for a 5 gallon of hempseed. You seriously can't eat too terribly much in a day. Lots of fiber. If you're serious about getting healthy then a cleanse is in order. I went on one back in early spring and I've never felt better. It's hard not eating for 10 days but it's like, speed or something. I can tell you about it if you want.

Does all this organic food that is high in fiber give your digestive system a run? It all sounds delicious, but high fiber stuff has been known to give me gas.

The healthiest I've ever been was drinking water whenever I can and lots of gatorade after working out hard. I'm not into supplements...just Omega 3.

Gatorade is way over rated. Like I said before, chocolate milk is the best after workout drink.

I'll never claim it's the best for you...but it does its job and I'm addicted to the taste after sweating like crazy. You don't need to go with the absolute scientifically-proven best beverage...you just go with something that works for you.

I am interested in how one would transition from a "normal diet" to the kind of diet that you are talking about. It seems as though it could be dangerous if not done correctly. Maybe dangerous isn't the right word, but hopefully you know what I mean.
