Month: June 2020

(Tom: For those who often read my posts you will be familiar with my respect for vitamin D and the effect it has on many functions on the body. In fact, the more you have of it, the lower the rates of many cancers. Well here is some more data on it from a newsletter. There is also an interesting video accessible via the link. Oh. And make sure if you get a blood test done you include D3 as one of the important markers of immune health. And include a CRP (C-Reactive Protein) test as a level of inflammation in the body.)

Our body derives it from exposure to the sun: it is therefore probable that, after more than two months of quarantine, in many people the concentration in the blood of vitamin D is below the recommended value of at least 30 ng / ml. Unhappy hypothesis, considering that it is considered one of the main allies of well-being. What are its main characteristics, and what are the signs of a shortage? “Vitamin D is a fundamental hormonal precursor for many biological functions”, explains Stefano Manera, specialist in Anesthesia and Resuscitation, expert in integrated medicine, nutrition and homeopathy.

“Apart from the summer, when you just have to expose yourself for 20 minutes in the sun, even with bare legs and arms, to allow our body to produce vitamin D, in the rest of the months of the year it is very difficult to have good levels. Unfortunately, it is not enough to do outdoor activities, to be exposed on sunny days and to eat fatty foods – such as salmon, some dairy products or egg yolk – or those to which vitamin D has been added. A deficiency can cause various pathologies, including a depletion of the immune system: in fact, frequently, patients who get sick more or develop more important symptoms have very low levels of this vitamin”, adds Manera, who during the Covid emergency – 19 was on the field at the Papa Giovanni XXIII Hospital in Bergamo in the Therapy ward Intensive.

Do not for one moment think the FDA in the US or our local equivalent have your best health in mind. They are just covert extensions of the drug company suppression of what they regard as competition. Well nourished and healthy people are not good drug customers! Dead bodies and healthy people are not their best prospects. Chronically sick people are. Don’t be a good prospect for the drug companies. Nourish your bosy with good food and supplements, sleep well, exercise, reduce stress and look for ways to enjoy yourself and have fun!

Here is a good article on how to prep your body to better repel viral infections. I have combined a great many nurients, far more than most formulators, into an immune boosting blend. check it out here: https://www.healthelicious.com.au/Nutri-Blast-Immune-Blend.html

Either get some more of these ingredients into your diet or if you prefer the convenience of having me source, store, measure and mix them, order some from me.

I’ve got some amazing news. You may have heard it. It’s just breaking recently. The announcement went out 3rd June 2020, but I want to give you the impact of it. The courts–the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals–in a three-judge panel ruled that the EPA‘s approval of Dicamba herbicide (and I’ll explain why this is so huge) was wrong. They blasted the EPA for incredible negligence and said no one can use Dicamba.

Now, to put this into perspective, Roundup has been driving the motors of Monsanto for years. Monsanto was bought by Bayer, and it was purchased at a ridiculous time because not only was there a ruling that it (Roundup) could cause cancer but also there was an enormous amount of weeds developing resistance to the chief poison in Roundup, called glyphosate.

Monsanto developed new seeds for cotton and soybean crops that will be resistant not only to glyphosate (Roundup), but also to Dicamba, because they want to mix the two together, and they figured that the cocktail of these two poisons would end up killing these Roundup-resistant weeds. So this was a huge marketing ploy by Monsanto. And VASF and Cartiva, two other GMO makers, picked it up, and they created the same Dicamba and glyphosate mixture, and they got it approved by the EPA.

People have been using Dicamba for 50 years, but they use it early in the season because Dicamba has the capacity to do what’s called volatilize. It can grow, it can end up in the air and move, and then land on other crops to damage them. And there were a million acres at the last count of crops that were damaged. Actually, I’ve heard much larger numbers–thousands, and thousands of complaints by farmers that their soybean fields, their peach trees, their gardens, their grasses– were damaged by the movement of Dicamba from these cotton and soybean fields.
