Scientists have been warning of a possible medical catastrophe from an epidemic of antibiotic resistant superbugs. Manuka honey may be a natural and ancient solution to a modern health disaster. For years doctors have been overprescribing antibiotics. A University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine study found physicians commonly use antibiotics to treat hospitalized patients with acute viral respiratory track infections, in spite of the fact antibiotics are known to be ineffective for these infections.

The grisly process of stamping out homeopathy (in the world, actually, Australia being the current target) herbal medicine and other ingestive therapies continues.
The Commonwealth Ombudsman is due to hand down his recommendations on the complaint that was submitted 2 years ago.
We have been advised that it would be politically potent to have 100,000 signatures notched up at around the same time.
We have 80.600 signatures, and about 6 weeks to get another 19,400.
We think we can do it.
Can you help?
You would find some interesting reading on the campaign website, about the bah humbug that’s going on, at www.yourhealthyourchoice.com.au
Thankyou!

Calcium is an essential mineral to our body, it is the building blocks to our bones and maintains bodily functions such as heart rhythm, nerve communication and the contraction and release of our muscles! Common knowledge tends to steer us towards dairy products as the ultimate source of calcium…
One of our recent releases on FMTV – ‘Got The Facts On Milk’ questions the conventional wisdom of the much publicised health benefits of dairy and milk. We know that calcium is super important for our health but what are some other sources of calcium besides dairy? We have put together a list for you of non-dairy calcium loaded foods!

Food and agriculture across the world is in crisis. Food is becoming denutrified and unhealthy and diets less diverse. There is a loss of biodiversity, which threatens food security, soils are being degraded, water sources polluted and depleted and smallholder farmers, so vital to global food production, are being squeezed off their land and out of farming.

Blueberries may be tiny, but remarkable new studies tell us they’re one of the most powerful health-promoting foods on the planet. In fact, they’ve been found to fight heart disease, cancer, and Alzheimer’s. Oh, and did I mention they’re also delicious?
I’ve been enjoying blueberries in oatmeal and chia porridge for years. But the more I learn about their incredible health benefits, the more of them I want to eat!
Wild or organic blueberries are usually best. But conventionally grown blueberries are fabulous for you, too. In fact, these studies were done on people who were, for the most part, eating conventionally grown blueberries — and they got stunning results that positively impacted a variety of health issues!
Surprisingly, studies have found that frozen blueberries contain as much or more health-boosting components than fresh ones, including vitamin C, anthocyanins, polyphenols, and other antioxidants.
This is probably because fresh berries lose some of their nutritional potency every day that passes after harvest. So whether you eat them fresh, frozen, or even dried, blueberries can be an outstanding addition to your healthy eating lifestyle.
