<br />
To those who still check in here PEACE. I have often thought about reinvigorating this site yet my current schedule just doesn't allow it. For those who aren't in the know since I started this blog many moons ago I have co-edited a book which has been a paradigm changer in the whole health field entitled <a href="http://www.hoodhealthhandbook.com/">The Hood Health Handbook (vol I and II)</a>. You can find both volumes on Amazon and other assorted places. We opened up a new door dealing with racial health disparity. I have been working with projects centered around this new paradigm.<br />
<br />
The two major projects that I am working on is<a href="http://www.oldskoolie1863.wordpress.com/"> Old Skoolie 1863</a> which is about transforming a school bus into an RV/mobile community center. The second project that I am working on is penning some weekly articles over at the Source magazine in the <a href="http://thesource.com/tag/hood-health-101">Hood Health 101 section</a>. I will actually be reposting some of the old articles here and will post the current ones frequently.<br />
<br />
If you want to keep up with me just generally you can catch me on <a href="http://www.twitter.com/alifeallah">twitter</a>, <a href="http://www.facebook.com/alife.allah">fb </a>or <a href="http://www.instagram.com/alifeallah">IG</a>.

Hunger is not just defined by the lack of quantity of food..the lack of quality of food is up in there also. So many of us think that we're not starving ourselves yet we are eating empty calories and our bodies aren't receiving the proper nutrients. This is the root of the health epidemic in places like the United States who though 'enlightened' seem to be hit with an over abundance of health issues. <br /><br /><span class="news-body-text"><span id="ls_contents-0">Photographer Joao Batista has done a fascinating series of photos titled "The People and the Food They Consume in a Week.” He took snaps of families in countries around the world (including the U.S., Egypt, Poland, Chad, Mongolia, Greenland, Bhutan, and France) posing in their homes with the food they consume in a typical week.

You can use them, too, in any indoor environment.</p> <p>Meattle's presentation at the <a href="http://conferences.ted.com/TED2009/">TED 2009 conference</a> details a large-scale success, using thousands of <a class="tagautolink autolink" title="Click here to read more posts tagged PLANTS" href="http://lifehacker.com/tag/plants/">plants</a> for hundreds of workers. In any living or working space, though, the three plants—Areca palm, Mother-in-law's Tongue, and a "Money Plant"—can be used to convert carbon dioxide into oxygen, remove organic compounds, and generally filter and freshen the ambient air. A single person looks to need a minimum of 11 total plants, and certain climates with less sunlight could require a bit of hydroponic growing, but Meattle swears by the health, productivity, and atmosphere benefits.

I had chocolate pudding made with cacao and avocado. I had spaghetti made out o zucchini and 'meatballs' made out of nut meat. I had 'heard' the term 'raw foodist' thrown around yet I had images of just munching on an apple and stuff. My time in Denver changed that. It took a while yet later that year I fully switched over into a raw foodist life style. In fact it is going on about a year now. Ironically Catch a Healthy Habit, the raw food cafe in West Haven had its 1 year anniversary yesterday.<br /><br />Now, it wasn't easy at first because I was/am in the process of learning. So in order to make sure I was getting a variety in my meals I had to constantly be on the ball learning new recipes. What eased this whole transition into this lifestyle was Catch a Healthy Habit. It is my version of raw 'fast food'. I can roll through and get some raw goodness to touch the tummy and it will be good. I'm a question asker also so I've learned alot during its one year in existence here near me. <br /><br />As I prepare to move I think how easy that it has been for me yet I am happy in that I definitely did not waste my time there. I learned while I was around. If you roll through southern C-Truth definitely check it out.alife allahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04347229478120154802noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8389256887443298739.post-31619554657106894622009-02-06T13:58:00.000-05:002009-02-06T13:58:00.244-05:00What is Iraqi Order 81As an add on to yesterdays Build (and if you haven't added on in the comments please do so) what is <a href="http://rfdamerica.com/?p=52">Iraqi Order 81</a> and what does it have to do with YOU.alife allahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04347229478120154802noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8389256887443298739.post-29625790231857059942009-02-05T11:00:00.000-05:002009-02-05T11:00:01.571-05:00Suicide Seeds...Let's Build.Peace,<br />Let's Build on this.

For me I didn't read veganism 101. I just removed dairy from my diet and the immediate benefits of that experiment showed me that I wasn't living at the optimum level that my body could pump out. As I rocked different things I was actually in a state of becoming where I realized that there is an opposite to 'being sick' and that is being at an optimum level which is way above average. And for many that can't comprehend because they think that their 'average' is their body's optimum. Constantly physically feeling good, constantly having people take at least 7 years off of my age when they guess it, beign able to compete with the best out there..yes..this Ra food right(eous) food is muy bien.<br /><br />It's a journey though. It is definitely healing on another level.<br /><br />Yet understand that it is a journey. For many they are healing wounds and scars they may not have even noticed. You will find yourself in the valley of the shadow of death where 'artificial' is safe and familiar and 'natural' is scarey and 'dangerous'. You will comfront that part of yourself that you many not want to deal with.<br /><br />That is why I found the blog of the Earth Serenity to be needed. It is about working to balance where you want to go with where you are.<br /><br /><a href="http://serenitylovedivineearth.blogspot.com">Within/Without</a>alife allahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04347229478120154802noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8389256887443298739.post-61221095674565367822009-01-30T11:00:00.001-05:002009-01-30T11:00:02.045-05:00We got superfoods also....<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qLFFKyXj-AE/SXPelpHVbKI/AAAAAAAAAGE/UC8UldPCfzc/s200/27325433-1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 133px; height: 200px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qLFFKyXj-AE/SXPelpHVbKI/AAAAAAAAAGE/UC8UldPCfzc/s200/27325433-1.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />So as an Original raw foodist I have studied (and continue to study many) as I perfect this eating path (especially as it pertains to us topical melanin types). In my journey along this path I have come upon the works of<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Wolfe"></a><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Wolfe_%28raw_foodist%29"> </a>David Wolfe who is basically one of THE raw food 'gurus' out there right now. Having my Supreme Mathematic's filter on always allows me to take the best pat. Being a white raw foodist doesn't absolve you of white privilege. Let me just put that out there. The happy go lucky hippie-esque (damn hippies get a bum rap here all of the time) white liberal stuff doesn't phase me and make me want to run through strawberry fields with ya. Yet if white people choose to use raw foodism as the 'sword above their head' in order to work to manifest civilization so be it.<br /><br />Yet always remember where this started ie..with Original People. Though I was turned onto David Wolfe first one of the elders in the raw foodist community is an Original Man, Dr. Aris Latham of <a href="http://www.sunfiredfood.com/">SunFired Foods.</a> When I get to go to NYC and eat his food it is on!<span style="text-decoration: underline;"></span> Also, it appears that David Wolfe has some controversy over his first book. It appears that chunks of it were plagiarized from an Original Man from Iran named <a href="http://www.raw4life.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=55&Itemid=81">Arshavir Ter Hovannessian. </a> We know that models of how to eat to live come from Original cultures. So it is no surprise.<br /><br />This brings me to one of my personal gripes with the raw food 'movement' as it is popularly manifested in a capitalist society. Seeing that I am moving more to the locavore these things have been popping up in my head. Why is it that all of the latest 'superfoods' come from like either the Far East or South America? Under the guise of offering these superfoods to people abroad are white people once again just 'stealing resources'? Why aren't there any Original industries that are benefiting off of this surge in 'superfoods'? Also the 'tone' makes it appear as though that there agree no 'superfoods' anywhere else on the planet. Sounds like someone is writing people out of history again.<br /><br />In one of my previous blogs I wrote about the <a href="http://blacktonature.blogspot.com/search?q=lost+crops+of+africa">lost crops of africa</a>. There is a series of books online where you can find about a whole bunch of vegetation that you ain't ever heard of. Recently I came upon a post by a brother who spoke about the same lack of african superfoods in the current raw food landscape and he referenced those books. <a href="http://afrikans.wordpress.com/2009/01/19/the-lost-crops-of-africa/">Check out his article</a>, those books, and see if you can cop some of those veggies and fruits around your way at an ethnic market.alife allahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04347229478120154802noreply@blogger.com2
