HODA SOY

This is a great story for a food blog or food magazine. Hoda soy. Click on the title above, to see a youtube video of the process. Its pretty fricken cool. As a kid in Vietnam, Minh Tsai, often took morning walks with his grandfather to the neighborhood tofu shack. They would bring the fresh tofu home and enjoy it within hours after it had been prepared. He has taken his knowledge and love of good tofu and basically left his high power job in finance, to start his own company in Oakland.

KEVIN GIANNI

I have been doing alot of research on what to eat. My dad is a non pretentious foodie, and I am much like my pops in that way, and so our first question is what does someone that has cancer eat. They have NO appetit and is just eating to keep bodily functions working. I guess like all the girls that work at Vogue. So research and research and research... In the beginning, I did alot of studying and it said stay away from any anti-inflammatory foods like hi fat red meats, milk products, fast foods, and pesticides. I found this guy, that is amazing KEVIN GIANNI...not just to look at but also he was diagnosed with cancer in his 20's. He started this cool blog called RENEGAGE HEALTH. I've just found it. Its cool. (click on the title and it will take you to this posting): ...from Kevin Gianni..... Here are my thoughts:

1. The do not eat list… Anything white, sugar, coffee, alcohol, gluten, anything with chemicals added. It’s a simple list and I think there’s much less argument about many of these than with others — particularly macronutrients, plant families, or animal foods. 2. Coffee like a whip to the adrenals. We chatted about coffee quickly and I liked how Dr. Junger described it — “a whip to the adrenals.” Chocolate can do the same thing. 3. “Jesus turned water into wine, he didn’t turn water into green juice.” This was a great quote from Dr. Junger, that he said when we were discussing alcohol. He’s positive that regular use is not optimal, but when he said this he was referencing the historic use of wine in ceremony. His thought was maybe there is something to it and it has it’s place. So, yes, Jesus did not turn water into green juice. And I, too, believe that there is some medicinal and ceremonial use for alcohol. I also, and maybe Dr. Junger would agree too, believe that if Jesus had a Greenstar, he’d think twice about drinking the wine. 4. On health food fanatics… It’s not worth stressing out so much about your food that you create an acidic environment in the body. Dr. Junger talks about a cousin of his that is so fanatically about her diet that she’s always stressed out. Believe me, I know what this is like. I’ve been there too. I can remember a time when the only thing I thought about was where I was going to get my next meal and if I would be able to get the exact food that I wanted. It was constant stress. I’m sure it affected me negatively — and I definitely know it got my friends and family pissed off at me from time to time… 5. Detoxification supplements? Dr. Junger was careful not to recommend any blanket supplement for detoxification. He did mention the importance of fiber and enzymes, but made it clear that a supplement isn’t going to be the entire answer. Detoxification is a whole body activity, not a take a supplement and forget it process. 6. The Clean Program… We talked briefly about the Clean Program, which is a program that Dr. Junger has created. It’s a program for busy people. Dr. Junger explains that the fastest way to cleanse is water fasting. Then juice fasting and then a raw food program follow. The more you digest, the slower the detox. He also mentions that some of these programs can be to detoxifying for those who live in crowded areas. So his program is kind of an intermediary system that combines a lot of what we know about health with the practicality of real life. 7. You cannot argue with success. I asked Dr. Junger what his colleagues thought about him when he left cardiology to get into natural medicine. He told me, at first, they thought he was throwing away his career. But as soon as he was able to show results, they started to think differently. Basically, nothing speaks louder than results when it comes to proving to anyone — particularly the medical community — that a natural remedy or protocol works.

BUZZKILL

Hey guys, I been sidetracked lately and have been neglecting my blog lately due to the fact that my dad, who was in remission from Colon Cancer last year, unfortunately was diagnosed with Non Hodgins Lymphoma. Buzzkill. I remember earlier this year being so facinated by the Good Morning America Show, with Robin Roberts. She had just had a fight with breast cancer, and then she got a form of Lymphoma as well. I remember just looking at her on tv, and thinking it must be aweful and man...how does she do it and go on tv everyday. Then, once it happens to you...its like holy shit. My dad was in shock, since Lymphoma is one of the strange cancers that come out of nowhere. His only symptoms was that he was getting tiny little rashes on his face. He didn't get all the others, like swollen glands, night sweats... Lymphoma. It has no discrimination in age...alot of young people randomly get it and my dad, who is 73 got it after being in remission from Colon Cancer. We're not sure where it came from. It could have been in his system prior to being diagnosed with the colon cancer, it could have come from an infection...it could have been all the japanese produced products he eats from the Earthquake almost a year ago and the foods...we are not sure. But he has it and we have to figure out what to do. We caught it at an somewhat early stage, we started chemotherapy the day after the biopsy and the diagnosis was given. Its been a whirlwind but its seems that life is like this and shit seems to always happen randomly and so we deal with it and figure it out. So knowing that my dad has another life threatening disease, I have decided to move in with him for a few months and take him through the chemo process. My mom has to take his duties and take care of the family businesses, so I am lucky to be the one to chill with him as long as he wants to stick around and fight. He's a fighter. So back to this blog. I don't have time to shop, or eat, or do the lady of leisure things right now but I can do is take you through what I've been doing daily, or looking up... so those of you who are also just finding out that you or one of your friends or relatives might have been diagnosed with cancer, has a "411" on what they are doing. This is also for me...general information for myself so that I can keep a log of what we are doing, but also for those of you who are dealing with it too, so you can see what a person has to do to survive it. He's done it once, we think that he can do it again. We have an amazing doctor, someone that was the right fit for my pops. The most famous doctors are not necessarily the best doctors for you/a friend/a parent. The best doctor is someone that is highly recommended, has a good record of cancer patients that have survived and that are happy, that attends to the patient in a fast manner, and isn't to famous or busy that doesn't have time, and finally, one that gives patients hope and encouragement to fight. I guess like a good teacher in general... THERE IS SO MUCH SCARY INFO...on the web that will freak you out. Please check with your doctor on the correct and educated websites. HEre are a few that our doc gave us: http://www.cancer.net/plwc/Home http://www.cancer.gov/ http://www.cancer.org

Some recent photos i was hired to shoot recently...i love shooting kids.

MYHABIT.COM is awesome

This is my new favorite shopping site.
a neighbor of mine, named Zoe, a 70 year old fashionista, and former playboy bunny, was the one that told me about it. I admired her Tom Ford Sunglasses and her Stella McCartney pants once day and she told me she got them on MYHABIT.

I am obsessed. With prices like they have, I can actually afford Tom Ford, Costume National, Alberta Ferrerti, so many other designers that I love...check it out. If you are new to it, if you write me as the referral, I get $20 bucks credit!

I think they have better prices and designers than GilT or HAUTE LOOKE...

CHEAP RETAIL THERAPY-FOREVER 21

I've been a bit stressed out lately, and when I get stressed, I'm startt surfing the web around 10pm. MYHABIT is the first stop, then GILT, then FOREVER21. Here are a few things I found on Forever 21 under $20 that I ordered. The first checkered shirt is my favorite for $18. LIzzie Garrett, from Tomboy Style recommended a great JCREW top for $88, but if you don't want to spend that kind of money, buy this one, tuck it into a pair of boyfriend jeans, and button it up all the way to the top and roll up the sleeves. Really cute.

CELEBRITY SCIENTOLOGISTS

I was reading my yahoo "what's trending" and I logged onto this link. I was actually pretty shocked at some of the scientolgists that were named, since the list seems to be personalities...that well...seemed sort of grounded and intelligent.
Leah Remini, Greta Van Susteren, Gioviani Rubisi, Elisabeth Moss, Erika Christensen, Laura Prepron Jason Lee and Lisa Marie Presley...
A few of them raised my eyebrow...especially Van Susteren and Laura Prepron...

ADAM LEVINE ON BEING A SLUT

I just read this website article on Yahoo, about his interview/article in Details explaining with lots of butter...why he's a slut.
Read it.

Its similiar to a supermodel explaining something. Dumb, with no point but who cares...I'll still like looking at him. Levine is SEXY and who wouldn't do what he's doing in his shoes. Having so much sex, probably made him great in bed with a few shakes of being a sex addict. Who cares...he's hot.

Just be like Mike Jagger and Warren Beauty...own it. No excuses.
