In May, an elderly man was admitted to the Brooklyn branch of Mount Sinai Hospital for abdominal surgery. A blood test revealed that he was infected with a newly discovered germ as deadly as it was mysterious. Doctors swiftly isolated him in the intensive care unit.

The germ, a fungus called Candida auris, preys on people with weakened immune systems, and it is quietly spreading across the globe. Over the past five years, it has hit a neonatal unit in Venezuela, swept through a hospital in Spain, forced a prestigious British medical center to shut down its intensive care unit, and taken root in India, Pakistan and South Africa.

The man at Mount Sinai died after 90 days in the hospital, but C. auris did not. Tests showed it was everywhere in his room, so invasive that the hospital needed special cleaning equipment and had to rip out some of the ceiling and floor tiles to eradicate it.

With bacteria and fungi alike, hospitals and local governments are reluctant to disclose outbreaks for fear of being seen as infection hubs. Even the CDC, under its agreement with states, is not allowed to make public the location or name of hospitals involved in outbreaks. State governments have in many cases declined to publicly share information beyond acknowledging that they have had cases.

Regarding another incident of it in the UK, a hospital spokesman said: “There was no need to put out a news release during the outbreak,” said Oliver Wilkinson, a spokesman for the hospital.

This hushed panic is playing out in hospitals around the world. Individual institutions and national, state and local governments have been reluctant to publicize outbreaks of resistant infections, arguing there is no point in scaring patients — or prospective ones.

So warning people of potential risks is bad for business so they don’t do it! Yet another case of no informed consent!

This is one reason I try to keep my immune system in tip top condition. One never knows to what one will be exposed. If vaccines weaken the immune system, (which they do according to independent scientific study) I don’t want any part of them!

Here is another example of why one cannot necessarily trust “Science” and “Research”. Because according to the editors of top medical journals, most of it is questionable.

As the original poster says… “See the game?

Your tax dollars fund fraudulent research. That research is used to rationalize “science.” The “science” is used to create policy. The policy removes freedom of choice.

Vaccines are different, you say…?”

I see on average 100 to 120 patients every week. The root causes of 80 to 90 per cent of the problems people present with are secondary to stress and anxiety. Mental health problems are on the rise and this is no coincidence when we consider that time is now viewed as a commodity, writes Dr Punam Krishan.

The crux of many of our issues is that we are pushing ourselves faster than ever before, expecting to do more in shorter amounts of time. The younger generations are addicted to technology and success with a buzz to be the next big influencer. The older generations are struggling to keep up as they straddle the ever-widening social gaps. We are all stressed and this is manifesting in chronic and complex diseases like type 2 diabetes, heart disease, several cancers, strokes and mental health problems, costing people their lives way ahead of time.

The number of prescriptions for antidepressants has doubled over the past 10 years. We are so busy we are choosing to cure ourselves with pills instead of understanding the root causes of our mood imbalances. When we review the evidence from pharmaceutical companies, we can clearly see there is a very small number of benefits in improving low mood using antidepressants compared to people who are treated with a placebo pill. Why are we willing to take a leap of faith for the pharmaceutical companies but not take a leap of faith about our inner pharmacology which would have far more sustainable long-term effects if we put in the time and effort to heal ourselves.

The long list of side-effects of antidepressants is enough to make anyone feel sick yet we trust and surrender to the thought that there is a pill for every ill.

Over 30 years ago while researching the subject of vaccination for my children, this was the decider, the straw that broke the camel’s back for me. The fact that the medical profession is not honest and scientific, they are complicit in a criminal coverup of adverse events that have debilitating and deadly consequences. And you cannot make an informed decision without adequate data. So if they are suppressing the data, you have to take their word for what they are paid to promote. And since the four companies who make vaccines are convicted felons, in my humble opinion, you have to be a special sort of idiot to trust them!

As if we didn’t already know how valuable breast milk is, researchers have discovered a team of immune cells in breast milk that are ready to conquer potential pathogens.
There is a plethora of research on the benefits of breast milk, including its ability to boost an infant’s immune system. Mother’s milk has been found to contain millions of cells, many of which aid immunity.

To add to the evidence, researchers from Augusta University have detected the presence of immune cells called innate lymphoid cells, or ILCs, in human breast milk. Their findings, which were based on extensive cell analysis of milk from four lactating women, were published last month in JAMA Pediatrics.

One of my Facebook friends posted: I have a tip for all you avocado lovers. I keep the uneaten half of my avocados in this case but the surface of the flesh gets brown. I have tried adding olive oil, vinegar and other substances to see if they would prevent the browning. I finally found something that works great. I just rub a bit of coconut oil on the bottom and put the avocado cut side down. No browning. Enjoy.

From a newsletter I receive:

Did you know fermentation helps break down nutrients in food, making them easier to digest than unfermented foods?

Fermented foods also help provide your body with more vitamins, minerals and healthier gut flora, helping balance your digestive system.

There’s so many benefits to eating fermented foods that I can’t even put them all here.

That’s why we created a free report that’ll show you everything you need to know about fermentation and how it turns everyday foods into health powerhouses.
