Only THREE days and I'm on my way to the Wise Traditions conference in Dallas (put on by the Weston A. Price Foundation), thanks to my sweet sponsors, U.S. Wellness Meats!

- Feel like throwing something across the room this morning? If not, you will after you read this: Revealed: Food Rebates Dominate School Cafeterias. (Thank you Merry Lynn for posting this on my Facebook wall.)
- Do you want to see something WILD, yet completely unrelated to anything I normally write about? Check out this video about a building in Dubai:

- Just in case you missed it when I posted this on FB last week, watch this for a laugh:
- Did you see this list: “Are you eating these 7 fall superfoods” from Huffington Post? Those are all fine and good, but they forgot a few things like…Hellooooo: Bone broth, pastured fats, raw milk, organ meats, and of course fermented cod liver oil and other fermented foods! But those aren't just for fall, they're for all year. Did I miss any good ones?
- Read this great post from Hallee about how she and Gregg chose not to have their son, Scott, tested for Autism right now: Seeing the negative space. I'm curious if any of you have made similar decisions?
- If you missed the media coverage from the Raw Milk Freedom Riders rally last week, Kimberly has a great update in her recent post.

Hi! Love your blog. I have a question about dry lips. My lips are so dry that they are cracking and bleeding! I eat high fat. Avoid crap food, drink lots of water, have bone broth almost everyday and FCLO almost everyday, about 1tsp. My skin isn’t dry only my lips. Should I take more FCLO? I’ve tried olive oil, coconut oil, calendula oil,vaseline, many different lip chaps natural and not so natural. Do you think I might have a vitamin or mineral deffiency? I dont use dairy because I’m allergic, I’m going to start GAPS one of these days. I do eat some butter. Any suggestions.
Thanks!!

It is a deficiency, but I am drawing a blank at the moment. Hopefully it will come to mind soon.
Raquel says
Ok thats what I kinda thought but I eat really healthy so its weird.
Paula says
Its vitamin D. Over time in all that I have studied, it seems like we in our current states, even with eating right, cannot get enough, so adding in high doses of D3 drops for a time period seems to be the right thing to do.
Upping the FCLO will help some, but I really believe we are going to not see “perfection” in our generation. Supplement heavily.

This is looking like a very good source for the drops.
They are using olive oil as the carrier.
I need to ask them where the Vitamin E is derived from though. Its usually soy 🙁
And Twinlabs has a sub-lingual version that looks good.

Ok, thanks. I was taking 5000 I.U. from soft gels but it plugged me up. Come to think of it I dont remember having dry lips when I was on that much. I will have to up my FCLO and maybe try my daughter’s vitamin D. I give her D drops. I’m in Canada so we really have no sun now 🙁

Ugh. The post on the rebates made me furious! It’s always about money, isn’t it? Shared in on Facebook.
Take care, Kelly!
