Don ’t use garlic to treat vaginal yeast infections
Vaginal yeast infections are common, up to 75 percent of women will have at least one and 5 percent of women suffer from chronic yeast infections (meaning four or more a year). Many women out of frustration with allopathic medicine (preventing recurrent yeast infections can be challenging) or because of their beliefs turn to alternative medicine options. More and more I am hearing about vaginal garlic. The problem with many alternative or complementary therapies for yeast is that they are built on a tiny bit of factual information, but applied incorrectly. Vaginal garlic is no exception. Garlic has antifungal properties Ga...

Unity Farm Journal - First Week of October 2016
What a year at Unity Farm: a plague of winter moth, a spring gypsy caterpillar infestation, deep drought, and maybe Hurricane Matthew, which is heading up the coast, might affect our foliage color and branch-falling.  Life on a farm is never boring.Every October we press cider using the apples that were most successful that season. This year our mixture is 40% McIntosh, 40% Cortland, and 20% Macoun.  Last weekend we hand pressed 250 pounds and created a cider with a ph of 3.3 and a specific gravity of 1.054 which will yield a finished alcohol by volume of 6-7%.  Although the drought created gr...

Recipes for Successful Entertaining With MS: Start With Eggs!
After I posted about my cooking demonstrations at MS Life 2016, I received a number of requests for the recipes I’d shared at that event. So I thought I’d share those with you today. These recipes are easy, fast to prepare, and suitable for entertaining. I know that the act of having someone over for a meal can be daunting for many of us with multiple sclerosis (MS) when we think about expense, fatigue, and coordination issues. But not having others over, especially if we used to entertain at home, can contribute to our social isolation. The three recipes included here can be used for breakfast, brunch, lunch, or dinn...

Foraged Delight – The Staghorn Sumac
This is staghorn sumac (rhus thphina), whose gorgeous red fruit berries I first encountered last summer atop High Knob in the Loyalsock. Isn’t it gorgeous? The branches and berries of the staghorn sumac have a fuzzy feeling like the antlers of a deer (hence the name) and will NOT give you a rash. The stuff that gives you a rash is poison sumac. Poison sumac has a red trunk. It grows in swamps and standing water, it’s berries are white and hang down, and the leaves look like this. Got it? Good. Now stop being afraid and go get yourself some staghorn sumac. What to do with Staghorn Sumac Berries The sumac f...

Tahcheen-e Esfenaj (Baked Persian Rice Cake with Lamb, Spinach & Prunes)
I must apologize for the infrequency of my blog posts over the past year. My new position at the medical school has kept me much busier than I’d ever imagined. Now, a year later, things are finally settling in and I’m hoping to bring this blog thing back to life, if only because the act of writing truly grounds me. One of the better parts of my new position has been getting to know our Qatar-based medical school faculty and staff, who sent me the most amazing Persian cookbook – Saraban: A Chef’s Journey through Persia by Greg and Lucy Malouf. (Thank you Shahrad and team!) This is a cookbook tha...
