Good morning, I'm Mike from USA and happy to be here. I'd like to learn more about qi gong and bigu. 

Evening. I'd also like to know more about bigu. It seems we have an old thread about it. It's kinda crazy given how many staples around the world are grains. If you wanted to honour Pythagoras, you'd have to cut out legumes as well. I guess that would leave potatos and breadfruit.

And potatoes are murder for blood sugar so that one is marginal at best as well.  Don't know much about breadfruit's impact, but it's decidedly intriguing to me how Life seemingly has its own downfall built into the very fabric of its process...

 

Life/Death  Growth/Decay no longer seem seperate processes but two aspects of one flowing process.

I forgot about manioc, another candidate for a hypothetical Taoist staple. Apparantly the problem with it is that you need to cook it with care to eliminate the cyanide.
