Now that we are mentioning broccoli - adding mustard seed powder to any Brassica plant will enhance absorption of anti-carcinogenic compounds by multiples. It is best to eat Brassica plants raw, if you cook them than add mustard seeds on finished and served broccoli : ))).

Yes- not everybody can have positive effect, no matter what somebody does, but many do and that is the whole point. As long as suggestion is healthy and beneficial for general health , why not try it : ) ?

Where was I ?
Aawweeee - Phil noticed Surf being missing < 3 !? Surf was down for many reasons, UTI one of things ... I never have them so it is a mystery - probably all of this stress for almost a year got better of me :/. Also had to pack for mountain adventure - don't even ask - my family's wish lol :P, AND I injured left ankle so I am wobbling around (ankle pain), half band forward (lower belly pain) trying to pack and prepare everything AND trying to make myself presentable and "look cute" on nature walks LOL ! Crazy person ... honestly ...

PS: Hope your wife's recovery is going well . I am wishing her very fast healing and rapid resolution of the pain and stiffness which is inevitable with any joint replacement surgery : (((. I know that you are providing superb support and help and I am sure that by spring time she will be like new : ))) !
