IMHO the tips hold water, the claimed benefits are probably grossly exaggerated.

A 2025 randomized, double-blind clinical trial involving 90 children and adolescents aged 5–14 with ADHD found that adding a rosehip (Rosa canina) syrup or a traditional polyherbal syrup to the standard medication methylphenidate could provide additional benefits beyond medication alone. Over an 8-week period, children who received the herbal syrups alongside their prescribed treatment showed greater improvements in important ADHD symptoms, including difficulty paying attention, hyperactivity, impulsive behavior, and overall symptom severity, as measured by widely used teacher and parent assessment scales.
Researchers also reported improvements in quality of life across all groups, while the herbal-supplemented groups demonstrated stronger gains on several clinical symptom measures. The findings suggest that these herbal formulations may serve as safe and effective complementary therapies, helping some children achieve better symptom control when used together with conventional ADHD medication under medical supervision.

One of the best lists I have seen.

Apart from reducing sugar and other inflammatory foods, something I have been taking about for years, systemic enzymes.

Cancer remains one of the leading causes of death in the United States, with thousands of lives lost each day. Researchers widely agree that healthy lifestyle choices including avoiding tobacco, maintaining a healthy weight, being physically active, limiting alcohol, protecting against excessive sun exposure, and following recommended cancer screenings reduce the risk of many cancers.
Some scientists, including Dr. Thomas Seyfried, have proposed that disruptions in cellular metabolism play an important role in cancer development and have explored metabolic therapies, such as ketogenic diets, fasting, and other approaches, as potential areas of research. While this work has generated scientific interest, unfortunately the broader medical community continues to view cancer as a complex group of diseases involving interactions among genetic mutations, metabolism, environmental exposures, lifestyle factors, and the immune system.
Standard treatments such as surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and hormone therapy are claimed to have improved survival rates for many types of cancer and remain the treatments of choice.
Ongoing research aims to better understand cancer biology and develop more effective, personalized treatments while emphasizing prevention through healthy lifestyle choices and early detection.
Fact: According to leading cancer organizations, an estimated 30–50% of cancers may be preventable by reducing known risk factors and participating in recommended screening programs.
The WHO estimate 90%+ of cancer risk is diet and lifestyle, not genetic.
The blame on genetics fails to account for the fact that diet, exercise and environmental factors (like toxins), labelled epigenetics (Dfn. epi above’ genetics), have ability to ‘turn on’ or ‘turn off’ gene expression.
Disclaimer: This post is for educational purposes only. Claims that any single diet, supplement, or metabolic therapy can prevent or cure cancer are not supported for all cancers, and treatment decisions should always be made in conjunction with someone who has a proven track record of helping the body recover from cancer.

The “forever chemical” met something older.
PFAS — per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances — are the most stubborn pollutants humans have invented. They don’t break down in sunlight, water, soil, or human bodies. They accumulate in blood, in liver tissue, in groundwater, and they stay there for decades. Maine’s farm soils were contaminated by sludge spreading, firefighting foam, and industrial discharge. The state had thousands of acres where PFAS levels exceeded safety thresholds, and conventional remediation was a joke. You can’t filter what doesn’t degrade. You can’t dig up what has already spread through the soil profile.
Maine’s Department of Environmental Protection funded a project using wood-rot fungi mycelium to biologically break down PFAS. The mechanism is enzymatic. White-rot fungi — species like Phanerochaete chrysosporium — evolved to decompose lignin, one of the most complex and resistant organic polymers on Earth. Their enzymes, called laccases and peroxidases, cleave carbon-fluorine bonds that other organisms can’t touch. The mycelium in this photo, spreading through mulch in a contaminated Aroostook County field, is literally digesting PFAS molecules and converting them into harmless byproducts.
The turkey in the background, foraging in the mist, is the proof. Before the mycelium treatment, this soil was too contaminated for agricultural use. Wildlife avoided it. The fungi broke down the PFAS over 18 months of managed treatment, and the soil now tests below detection thresholds for the most common PFAS variants. The turkey doesn’t know about enzymatic degradation. It just knows the ground is safe to scratch again.
The second-order effect is agricultural. Maine’s dairy industry was devastated by PFAS contamination in feed crops grown on sludge-amended soils. Farmers faced bankruptcy, herd culling, and permanent land loss. The mycelium treatment offers a path to recovery. It’s not fast — it takes one to two growing seasons — but it’s permanent. The fungi don’t just bind PFAS. They destroy it. And the byproduct is improved soil structure, increased organic matter, and restored microbial diversity.
Other states are watching because Maine proved that the oldest technology on Earth — fungal decomposition — might be the only one capable of undoing our newest mistake.

I well recall reading in a book from an Alaskan doctor how his average patient only ate 20 different foods in a week. And my own doctor telling me in the early 1990s to get as wide a variety of foods into your body as you could. Here are 23 foods with specific identified benefits.
