How to Make the Very Most of Your Body and all of its Fluids

150 replies

EarthWindandFire · 07/04/2009 13:52

Hello.
I am currently writing a book which I thought may interest some of you.
I am a very natural lady and a believer that nothing should go to waste. There is a use for everything our body produces. I wondered if any of you mothers have any contributions you could make or any comments on whether you would be interested in buying such a book.

Examples include the health benefits of drinking your own urine (of which there are many).

Freezing your menstrual blood to use as stock or a natural thickener to gravy. It is full of protein and has a rich, meaty flavour.

Recycling your faeces to use as compost for your organic vegetable garden.

There really is nothing your body produces that you cannot use in some way and this is the aim of my book. I would appreciate your comments.

Surely you don't use your menstrual blood in gravy - yuck.

What about earwax?

This must be a wind up? No?

Extra points awarded for 'rich, meaty flavour'

EarthWindandFire · 07/04/2009 13:55

There really is nothing new in what I am doing. People have been making the most of their bodies for years, it's just in our hygenic society we think of our body and it's fluids as something to be ashamed of, something that is disgusting. I aim to challenge that and am looking for like-minded people to give my book a go.

see now it was a goo effort and i too liked the "rich meaty flavour" but points deducted for timing - it is half term and trolls are to be expected.

also you should have strung it out a little longer, not fully explained the book, just given a vague outline and getting us interested in what precisely you meant by bodily fluids.

over all a good effort but must try harder. B-

Well i know Madge pee's in the shower

Is that like minded enough for you

I think you'd have to be a pretty hardcore lentil weaver for your special gravy (and I suspect they would be vegetarian)

But good luck

why would we need to buy the book, we get it. you drink your own piss,
shit on your onions,
and squeeze your mooncup into your Bisto.

nice.

Actually your body odour is unique to you and was used to attract the opposite sex. Our natural smell is camoflagued now by overuse of soaps and deodorants.

Yes - even earwax can be used as a sealant for letters and so on.

Your reactions are to be expected. However I'm sure there must be some enlightened mums who already follow this method?

There's a section on Kelly Mom about breastmilk butter and ice lollies - for babies though!

EarthWindandFire · 07/04/2009 14:02

I have made some wonderful soap using breastmilk and it's most popular amongst friends and family. I've also taught classes how to make the most of their breastmilk. It vexed me to see so much of the milk wasted.

Lots of women thoroughly enjoyed my classes and asked me if I knew of other ways of making the most of what your body produced. Which is what led to the book idea.

Theres already a book about this I assume you have researched John Bourke?

PMSLBrokeMN · 07/04/2009 14:03

Any ideas on recycling that?

EarthWindandFire · 07/04/2009 14:06

Yes I've heard of John Bourke and I guess I am coming from the same notions, but in a slightly different way. I hope to appeal to the many mothers out there who wish to lead as natural a life as possible.

PSMLBrokeMN I suggest you feed it to the garden animals.

You have, I assume, paid the "non member" fee to MN for this?

No, thought not. B*gger off.

EarthWindandFire · 07/04/2009 14:11

I am not selling the book as it is not yet finished. And you do realise that you have misspelt your name don't you?
