Tom's Blog on Life and Livingness
Helluva lot of coincidences and anomalies surround this virus.
Then Wednesday, July 7 – Haitian President Jovenel Moise, a 53-year-old former businessman who took office in 2017, was shot dead and his wife, Martine Moise, was seriously wounded when heavily armed assassins stormed the couple’s home at around 1 a.m. local time (0500 GMT).
I came across what I feel is a very important discussion of the problems with the current vaccines. In an interview with The Epoch Times, Dr. Robert Malone, the inventor of the mRNA technology, expresses clearly what concerns us. I have excerpted his longer interview:
“I can write a piece about bioethics, the bioethics of vaccination under emergency use authorization. So, I dug into rich literature that exists as well as federal law. That goes back to The Helsinki Accords, The Belmont report, et cetera, and looked at what are the fundamental principles of bioethics as they relate to use of an experimental product.
“So point number one just summarize that, and this is, you can find it in The Code of Federal Regulations, it’s referred to as the Common Rule. So this is actually Federal Law. So the first thing is that an emergency use authorization product, which is what all these vaccines are and many of the drugs, is an experimental product. It is not yet licensed. So that’s point number one. They’re all experimental products.“
“Point number two, if you’re going to be administering experimental products to patients that falls under clinical research, medical research. And so, you have to follow the guidance for medical research. And I mentioned the Common Rule is codified in the Code of Federal Regulations.
“The first clause, importantly in the Common Rule, is there has to be a complete disclosure of risk.. You know, intuitively what that means because when you buy a bottle of aspirin, you pull out this little piece of paper, and you look at that, and you go, ‘Holy Moly, this aspirin is going to kill me.’ If you read all the way through, it could cause heart attacks or gastric erosions, or whatever. And you look at that, and you say, ‘Oh, I don’t know if I want to take that aspirin.’
“But the truth is that the ones that are common are up at the top, and we all take aspirin or Tylenol or some version of that.
“That’s the level of disclosure of adverse risk that must be provided to patients participating in clinical research. That level of information, as we’ve just been discussing, is censored. It’s not available. So we are not meeting the criteria for full disclosure of risk.”
“Second key principle is that that full disclosure has to be comprehensible and comprehended. Earlier on, I referred to thrombocytopenia, and you were like, ‘What the heck was that?’ And I said, ‘Low platelets.’ That’s a great example. The first one was scientific jargon that was incomprehensible to you. The second one you could understand. So these risks have to be conveyed using language that people can comprehend.
“Third key principle, You cannot coerce. You cannot entice. The patient or the subject has to freely accept the experimental medicine of their own volition. All these messages about “You must take the vaccine. You must take the vaccine because otherwise Aunt Mary could get infected.” All of this messaging that the vaccine is safe, et cetera, all the peer pressure that’s happening around the vaccine, that’s coercion.”
“I don’t think we’ve done it here in the States, but Canada has. We’re going to give out ice cream cones to get the kiddies to come and take the jab that’s been done. That’s coercion and enticement.
“We here in the States generally agree that the age of consent is 18. If you are at or below the age of consent, you need to have approval or consent from your parent or guardian to take an experimental medicine. They act as your agent because you’re not able to provide consent by definition.
“We cannot, by law, have infants, children and adolescents receiving experimental products without authorization of their parents.”
“Now, listening to this, [one] might say, ‘Well, we have this special case of an epidemic, and we have to all get vaccinated.’ Why do we have to all get vaccinated? What’s the logic behind that?
“What we’re told is we have to all get vaccinated so we will have herd immunity. That’s the logic.”
“The problem is that is a fallacy. We have not gathered the data to even be able to calculate in these clinical trials what would give us herd immunity. What would herd immunity mean? It would mean that we have what’s called sterilizing immunity, or in some way, if we get infected, we don’t spread it to somebody else. That means that we’re not producing virus and shedding virus.
“Just today, the World Health Organization made an announcement clear and unequivocal. You’ve got to start using masks because none of these vaccines are preventing infection. They’re not preventing disease. They’re not preventing transmission, and they may be reducing transmission, but by how much we don’t know. And so we can’t calculate what the percent uptake is required to reach herd immunity, if we could reach herd immunity with these vaccines.
“So there’s an underlying logic that’s been pushed out globally about why we have to take vaccine and how many of us have to take vaccine and it;s not actually supported by data. And to my mind, that’s a problem. And it’s kind of gone all the way through this outbreak where key public health officials have felt comfortable substituting their opinions for evidence based medicine.
“And that always has to happen at the start of an outbreak because there’s no data. Somebody’s got to have expert opinion. We’re past that point. We have a lot of data and it is time we start relying on evidence to make public health decisions and we’re not doing it.”
“So to my eye, from the bioethics, we appear to be failing to meet the Code of Federal Regulations Regulations, Federal Law, let alone fundamental precepts that go back to the end of World War II. We’re not providing full disclosure of risk. We’re not doing so in a way that’s readily comprehended by the public. And we are enticing. compelling, coercing and otherwise not respecting the rights of the individual to choose what happens to their body.”
“And in my mind, that’s bedrock is we all have in Western society, the right to choose the State does not own our body, we do. Particularly for an experimental product.
“I argue that we’ve crossed a line. It’s a bioethical line. It may actually be Federal Law that we’ve crossed. Inadvertently, I’m sure for all the best reasons, but if you go back, read the code, read the Nuremberg Code. What we’re doing is not aligned with fundamental principles. And as you know, this happens from time to time during war and crisis.
“Cultures decide that it’s okay to bend the rules on some fundamentals of ethics, whether it’s torture, internment of populations, whatever. I believe they almost universally end up regretting it. And so, I’m trying to responsibly ethically with the credibility that I have in my CV, and because of my role in inventing this technology to alert people that I believe that we’re pushing and crossing some key lines here that we really should be respecting.
“My recommendation is that you know your body best, you and your medical care provider, and that you have the right to accept or not accept a vaccine product, particularly an experimental one. And that you make your own decision. I can’t advise you, in the end neither can your physician completely advise you.
“It’s up to you. It’s your body. It’s your choice. And I just suggest strongly that you take the time to get informed, do the best you can, and then make the decision that you think is right for you.”

A young girl making biscuits in 1938. Look at this picture. We really think we have it bad in today’s world. This is the generation that did make America great. Tough as nails. Worked hard. Made the changes necessary to work their own way out of poverty. There was no welfare, food stamps, public housing. They had to pull themselves out of their own situations.
(Tom:)
Yes, in Australia and other countries too!
Hard times create tough people.
Tough people create easy times.
Easy times create soft people.
Soft people create hard times.
Harden up people!
Resolve to then do the following.
Raise your confront!
Raise your communication level!
Raise your ethic level!
Raise your competence!
Raise your production!
Only a high confront individual with their ethics in, being highly competent and productive and demanding the same of others is a solid building block of first a family unit and thereafter, society.
If it were ever about protection the Australian government would not have banned the use of Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin. For so doing they are guilty of the murder of hundreds of citizens.

I will be on air with these two lovelies tonight! Here’s the full article from which the talk will be taking excerpts.
What is health?
To me physical health is living pain-free, disease-free and drug-free, being fit enough to do what I want to do, when I want to do it, for as long as I want to do it, without fear of injury or being exhausted for three days afterwards.
Mental health is being cheerful the vast majority of the time and having the resilience to bounce back up to that level after a setback or disappointment without needing help from drugs.
How do you retain or regain your health?
An interesting question and I am going to give you some philosophy first before I get into the mechanics.
The first and most important thing to always remember is if you are in a hole, stop digging!
If you are not happy or not succeeding in what you are doing, change what you are doing.
If you are heading in the wrong direction, change direction!
Retaining or regaining your health will not happen unless and until you make the decision that it is a priority and resolve to change your diet and lifestyle to that end.
Wishful thinking is not going to cut it. It takes time, dedication and discipline to maintain a diet and lifestyle different from what nearly everybody else is doing.
Most people never make the decision that maintianing their health is a priority. And of those who do, I am sure many give up due to the obstacles, the distractions and the lack of motivation.
In fact in my experience most people do not take an active interest in their health until they lose it. You are of above average responsibility level.
Secondly, undestand that there are lots of contradictory data and you will have to navigate your way through a minefield of it. Someone I respect once said to me, “Opinions are like backsides – everybody’s got one.”
The challenging thing is that most people, and I try to avoid this trap like the plague, will not tell you that if what they are saying is an opinion or it is a fact.
Now the common mistake most of us make when confronted with this confusion is to solve it by saying, “Well, I will only believe what an expert tells me.”
Trouble with that is that most people believe doctors are experts on health. Most doctors are not. Many of them but not all, are good at diagnosing a label for a set of symptoms as they are all trained to do, then knowing what drug is the recommended treatment for that diagnosis.
For instance while I was writing out the text for tonight’s show I called Don Chisholm, the man from whom I get the probiotic powder I put in my nutrition bars and powders, and asked him for a freebie or discount I could give you.
While we were talking about the fact that most people are not getting the nourishment their body needs from the food they eat he mentioned a woman who rang very concerned about a friend who had been diagnosed with bipolar disease. Don said to her, “That’s just a mineral deficiency.” She was surprised. Don sent her to a Canadian web site and she rang him back and said, “You’re right, it is!”
Medication can be all very well but the father of modern medicine said two thousand years ago that if you give a patient medicine he has to recover twice, once from the medicine and once from the ailment.
Recently I saw a facebook meme that said, no one ever got sick from lack of a drug. So why do we expect a drug will heal us? Because they don’t, there’s no money in cures! Drugs just suppress the symptoms, usually giving us more symptoms for which the doctor will prescribe another drug. So, many people end up on a half a dozen drugs, the average number of side effects of which is 75, one of which is death.
The upshot of that is what they call iatragenic illness – death by nurse or doctor accident, mistake or doctor prescribed drugs – is the third leading cause of death in the USA. And that’s what they will admit to. I have read stories from new nurses aghast at the lies put on death certificates to hide doctor mistakes, So the true number one killer could very well be the medical profession, not cancer, heart disease or any of the others.
Interesting story. Doctors rarely go on strike, it’s bad for business, but on the two occasions I have read of where they did, the death rate plummeted. Draw your own conclusion from that.
And before I leave this subject, I do acknowledge that drugs are often an effective if not life-saving short term solution. So I do not dismiss them entirely. My opinion is they are overprescribed and in most cases should not be used as either a first address to a problem or a long-term handling. Hint, the best course of action is prevention!
And in defense of the medical profession, their original training is oriented to drugs as solutions and most of us as patients are guilty of helping continue the existing paradigm by demanding of them a quick fix to our problem. When you are in pain, that’s what we want – the pain to go away, quickly.
If drug prescribing doctors are not your best source of health who is?
Well the very last organisation you should EVER trust are the government! I heard once that whomever gets elected is the person who tells the biggest lies.
Recently I was watching a video of a world renowned expert who in her presentation put up a slide of all the actions taken by government in response to the COVID crisis. (Masks, social distancing, lockdowns, staying inside et cetera.) She said despite the talking heads advising they were “following the science”, every single one of their actions and advices was scientifically provable to be 100% wrong.
She said it’s hard to get 100% wrong. Even a blind pig will stumble on some corn to eat occasionally! I laughed.
And as well as being wrong, their mandates are illegal.
Do you know that Australia is a signatory to the International Agreement on Medical Bioethics and Human Rights which says no medical preventative (think masks, social distancing, lockdowns, quarrantines) or treatment (think vaccine) is to be enforced, they ALL require informed consent?
Article 51.23a of the Australian Constitution prohibits compulsory medication. So does the Nuremberg code. And so on.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So if the principal “authority” figures are drug dispensers or are 100% wrong, who do you turn to?
Well, my gospel on this subject is, “what works”.
The Chinese have a saying. “The man saying it can’t be done should never interrupt the man doing it.”
Think about that for a moment. As humans, every single thing we learn to do for the first time was correctly labelled impossible prior to the first person accomplishing it. Yet the government tell doctors they cannot try something new, they tell them what they can and cannot do to treat patients according to what they deem as “best practice”. And if the “authorities” got it 100% wrong with their COVID recommendations they would have to have an unbelievable change to be 100% right elsewhere.
So I recommend you look to the people who are gitting the results you want. Look to your relatives and friends in their 80s and beyong who are living active healthy lives and ask what they eat and how they live. If you don’t have anyone in that category, go to YouTube and do a search for a Blue Zones a film by National Geographic where they identify ares in the world where an above average percentage of the population live longer, healthier lives past 100 years of age.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So what is the best diet?
Look, I can give you some general priciples which will put you a couple of rungs up the ladder in terms of chances to survive healthier for longer, I can tell you what I do, I can even recommend some diets for specific conditions but the most valuable thing I can do is to encourage you to be your own health researcher.
You may have heard the adage, “One man’s meat is another man’s poison.” That was first recorded in 1576 so it has long been recognised that we are not all the same. There is no one diet that is best for us all. Every spirit, mind body combination is unique.
As far as what is the best diet for your specific spirit, mind, body combination, my best advice is “find out what works best for you”.
Keith Scott-Mumby, who wrte the excellent book “Diet Wise” says there’s probably 7 billion correct diets on the planet, one for each of us.
He tells the story of a young Irish lad, before the court on an attempted manslaughter charge, sent to him for food testing. Keith administered the protocol described in his book for determining foods to which you have an intolerance then gradually reintroduced foods one at a time. When they reintroduced potato to the young guy’s diet it was like someone had flipped on the “angry” gene. Fortunately they had it on video and the judge gave him a suspended sentence on the condition that he never again ate potato!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Isn’t there some broad, advice that we can all follow?
Apart from the protocol I mentioned in Keith’s book, which I highly recommend if you have issues you suspect could be caused by one or more foods, yes. here is my best general advice.
The three best words to help you shortcut your learning curve are purity, density and diversity. Keep those in mind. In fact write them down now. Purity, density and diversity.
You may have heard that in the last 15 years researchers exhumed 150 Egyptian mummies buried over two thousand years ago. Test revealed that only three of the 150 had detectable cancers where it is estimated today that 50% of people will die from cancer.
What’s changed? Nutrient purity, density and diversity have all plummeted in the intervening two thousand years. Toxins and artificial additives have skyrocketed and nutrient density is nowhere near what it was even 80 years ago. A Canadian study found different vitamins and minerals declined 70-100% from mid-last century til now.
It is common to see 4 ingredient recipes promoted and the average American eats only 20 different foods each week while two-thirds gets 66% of their calories from a mere 4 foods or their derivatives (wheat, rice, corn and soy) whereas the ancient Aztecs cultivated 220 different crops.
So eat food as pure as you can get it. What’s pure? Free from artificial colourings, flavourings, preservatives and pesticides. Think fast food, junk food and processed and manufactured foods.
I almost never eat wheat as it is toxic to the body. The Japanese did a study and found wheat eaters had a 5% lower IQ than non-wheat eaters. As I sometimes quip, “I need all the 5%s I can get!”
I am a food manufacturer, so if I were being at all self-interested in this talk I would not tell you the following.
Jack Lalanne, a famous juice proponent and body builder who only lived to aged 94 and did a full workout the day before he died said, “If man made it, don’t eat it!”
I posted those last two paragraphs on social media once and someone who had tried my foods replied that I was a food alchemist.
Now unlike the alchemists of olden days I do not have a magic recipe that can turn lead into gold but I can make incredibly nourishing food and these are the three key principles I use to do it, purity, density and diversity.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What is density?
Eat food as nutrient dense as you can get it. You may have heard the term empty calories. It is food that delivers calories but is lacking or below average in the nutrients you need for the calories consumed. Chief culprit is cane sugar but most manufactured or processed foods would fall into the empty calories definition.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What about diversity?
Diversity means eating as wide a variety of pure, nutrient dense foods as you can.
A story. Dr Robert Thompson wrote the book ‘Calcium Lie II’. In it he said every single who comes to his practice is deficient in one or more minerals. And keep in mind what Dr Linus Pauling, said “You could trace every disease and every ailment to a mineral deficiency.” But what would he know? He only lived into his 90s and one two Nobel prizes for his discoveries regarding Vitamin C.
But I digress. Dr Robert Thompson made the point that many of the people he saw suffered the same ailments as their parents. Rather than blame genetics, as many do, he looked and found that on average, they only ate 20 different foods each week. THE SAME 20 THEIR PARENTS ATE! No diversity there!
You may have many of the same genes in common with your parents but genes can be turned on or off. They and be expressed or not. What turns them on or off? Your diet and lifestyle.
As Don Chisholm, the man from whom I get the probiotic powder I put in my nutrition bars and powders, says, “Your genes might be the loaded gun but your diet and lifestyle choice pull the trigger or not!”
So aim to get as wide a variety of pure, nutrient dense foods as you can into your diet. One way of doing it is to “eat the rainbow” – eat foods that are different colurs as each colour is indicative of a different nutrient.
When I cook a protein and vegetable meal I most often cook 8-12 different vegetables.
I can hear what some of you are thinking, “I don’t have time to do that!” And you may not think you can afford to eat organic vegetables but I urge you to consider this meme I saw on social media, “If you think eating organic is expensive, have you priced cancer lately?”
Because the choices we make today determine our future health and happiness. It’s a shame we cannot see the future to more clearly and better appreciate that fact.
Adelle Davis was an American author and nutritionist, considered the most famous nutritionist in the early to mid-20th century. She wrote, “As I see it, every day you do one of two things: build health or produce disease in yourself.”
I am going to finish with three more quotes that I hope will help you take advantage of what you have just heard.
Most of us grossly over-estimate what we can do in a day and grossly under-estimate what we can get done in ten years.
Small things done right each day add up to big things over time.
Your life is what YOU make it. No one else has as much power over your life as you do. Decide what sort of a life you want to be leading. Write it down. Look at this each day. Do something each day towards bringing it to pass.
