Baja homeopathic approach is to eat a street taco and a roasted pepper. Alternate biters of each, its not complicated.

Transitioning to fear & terror and fight or flight mode on occasion is a boost for your total physiology too, see you at the racetrack:bounce:

Acquired immunity


I grew up in Grass Valley, California, and the water supply to our neighborhood was untreated. It was gravity fed from one of the open ditches that were built to supply miners, and ranchers.

The winter rains sometimes caused us to have muddy water on tap! The rains also would shut down my dad's logging operations, so our family of six spent two winters in Manzanillo, in the state of Colima.

Other Canadians and Americans we met down there had to be very careful about where and what they ate and drank, but not us! It wasn't perfect immunity, my older brother got pretty sick once, but the rest of us pretty much breezed through both trips.




If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!

"Could do better if he tried!" Report card comments from most of my grade school teachers. Sadly, still true!

Put a lime in the coconut and drink 'em bot' together
Put the lime in the coconut, then you'll feel better.
Put the lime in the coconut, drink 'em both down,
Put the lime in your coconut, and call me in the morning,




there's only two things in life but I forget what they are........

I lived in a tipi by a creek in the wilds of BC in 1975 for 6 months and drank water unboiled from the creek. About 6 weeks into the stay, I hiked upstream a bit further than previously and discovered an active cow pasture straddling the creek ...:wow:

Never had an intestinal issue. I guess diluted cow effluent taken daily is good medicine :biggrin:
