    Experimenting with infrared 250 watt lamp- infrared said to have medical benefits (faster healing)

    Infrared penetrates deep into the body, nearly 2 inches! I had this bulb in a box, made in 1962 by GE.

    Dr. Kempners rice diet from the 1940's, compare to todays ideas

    Here is the Kempner rice diet. It is an interesting diet. (I don't eat rice because in the south it has arsenic because it is planted in previous cotton fields and they used arsenic to kill bugs that ate cotton. They have good rice in CA and i'd eat that.)
