Literally 10's of thousands of border state residents get meds in Mexico or Canada every day. They're actually subsidized by the suckers buying 'em in the US.....<NG>

lizzie, be careful. if any of those drugs are deemed illegal (eg, no prescription), the mexican government will throw you in jail. it has happened before. oh, and they keep you there.

i'd recommend looking into the joslin diabetes nutritional guidelines. it is pretty close to the anti-inflammation diet i have adhered to for 1/5 years. i effortlessly lost 30 lbs of fat without hunger, i feel better in my 40s than ever before, my resting heart beat dropped from 80 to the mid 50s, i lost my life long allergy problem, i need 1-2 hours less sleep at night and i've been complimented on the improvement in my complexion.

i'm on the zone diet, the same diet used by manuel uribe to lose 450 lbs in less than 3 years. he's just under 800 lbs with 120/70 blood pressure, mid 60 bpm and the blood work of a teenager.

other famous zoners include jenny thompson (2nd most olympic medals behind michael phelps), dara torres (at least in 2000 when she won 5 swimming medals as a 33 year old, since then she went mum on diet), valentina vazzeli (only person to win 3 straight fencing golds), steve finley (baseball), troy polamalu (football), tyson chandler (basketball), the 1984 silver medal winning italian basketball team, sinjin smith (volleyball) and christian vande velde (finished 5th in the tour de france and won the tour de missouri). 25 gold medals have been won by zoners since 1992 and the eldest swimmer on the us olympic team has been a zoner since it was introduced in 1992.

i mention this because this anti-inflammatory diet is really about optimal wellness and performance - the excess weight loss is just a nice side effect of wellness.

the zone diet amazed a friend who felt pain relief for the first time in 5 years after trying the zone diet for 24 hours. "the inflammation is gone" is her direct quote to me. this is significant because she had recently spent $10k out of pocket for the diagnosis of "surgery is all we can do and there are no guarantees."
