No Coffee, No Restaurants, Fats, and Vicks Vapor Rub

No coffee or caffeinated drinks of any kind--just water.

No Chinese restaurants or Mexican or Indian restaurants.  Food chain is too toxic.

Oranges help with opening up lungs. Valencia oranges seem sweeter and a bit more healthy than Navel oranges. Citrus fruits with their bioflaanoids are really good for blood vessel repair.

Vicks vapor rub is good for eliminating hard skin on your caused by fungus.

Get olive oil, coconut oil, and fish in your diet.  In fact, 85% of what you consume should be fat.

• 75 to 85 percent of your total calories as healthy fat
• 8 to 15 percent as carbs, with twice as many fiber carbs as non-fiber (net) carbs
• 7 to 10 percent of your calories as protein (high-quality grass-fed or pastured meats and animal products)

Sources of healthy fats include: 

olives and olive oil	Coconuts and coconut oil	Butter made from raw grass-fed organic milk, and cacao butter
Raw nuts, such as, macadamia and pecans, and seeds like black sesame, cumin, pumpkin, and hemp seeds	Organic pastured egg yolks	Avocados
Grass-fed meats	Lard, tallow and ghee	Animal-based omega-3 fat such as krill oil

"If you force the world's hungry to forego GMO foods because you think they're Frankenfoods, then you are the monster."

GMOs are Frankenfood? 

The most tested products in agricultural history.  They're no riskier than any conventional plant technique.  GMOs could save the world.  End Vitamin A deficiency.  Much bigger yields.  Save biological diversity.  But if you force the world's hunger to do the same, you are the monster.

“If for humanitarian reasons we wish to help people fleeing persecution, there is still no need to release them into the general population of susceptible individuals."

Dr. Jane Orient, executive director of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, is criticizing the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) for allowing refugees to enter the United States without screening and treatment for latent tuberculosis.

Seven of the agency’s own public health experts said such screening and treatment “would potentially save millions of dollars and contribute to United States TB elimination goals” in a research article published in December.

“Admitting people who might cause an epidemic makes no sense whatsoever from a public health standpoint,” Orient tells Breitbart News.

“It suggests that those who favor it do not care about the cost in suffering, death, and expense to Americans,” Orient says, adding she agrees with the public health experts currently or formerly employed at the CDC who concluded that screening of refugees for latent tuberculosis and successful treatment of those who test positive for the disease prior to their entry into the country is the proper public health policy for the United States.

Fluoridation toxicity has already been established.  What's required now is to fight, to lead a letter-writing campaign against each municipal that allows it in its water.

Fluoride is an endocrine disrupter.  Has an adnormal affect on endocrine functions.  Fluoride disrupts thyroid function.

Fluoride in your water violates our rights to abstain from any treatment.  You know this already.  This documentary does a good job of presenting the argument that you're already familiar with.  Enjoy.

Busy Person = Better Brain

From the UK's Independent's Will Worley.

Busy people may have better-functioning brains in old age than those who are less busy, scientists have suggested.

A healthily busy lifestyle is associated with improved cognitive function, the Dallas Lifespan Brain Study found, particularly when it comes to working memory, reasoning and vocabulary. 

However, the scientists were not able to say if the heightened brain function is caused by being busy, or vice versa. 

A total of 330 volunteers aged between 50 and 89 filled in questionnaires for the project, which was published in the journal Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience. The volunteers also completed a series of neuropsychological tests which measured their cognitive performance. 

Denise Park, the director of the Dallas Lifespan Brain Study, said she was surprised at how little research had been carried out on the subject, given that being too busy "seems to be a fact of modern life for so many".

And while the research was not affected by an individual’s level of education and age, Ms Park said that a link had been discovered between busy lifestyles and superior processing speed of the brain, working memory, reasoning and vocabulary.

In particular, there was a strong association between busyness and memory - specifically, the ability to remember certain events in the past.

Sara Festini, lead author of the study, said: "We show that people who report greater levels of daily busyness tend to have better cognition, especially with regard to memory for recently learned information."

However, the results also raised further questions – such as whether being busy improves cognitive function or if people with heightened neurological characteristics simply tend to be busier people. 

The researchers hypothesised another possibility: That busier people, by the nature of their lifestyles, have more opportunities to learn through the wider variety of situations they find themselves in, which results in stimulating cognition. 

"Living a busy lifestyle appears beneficial for mental function, although additional experimental work is needed to determine if manipulations of busyness have the same effect," said Dr Festini.

While being overly busy can lead to conditions like chronic stress, other experts have supported the claim that a healthy level of busyness can also be important for mental health. Doctors often instruct patients with depression to keep busy to try to distract themselves from their condition.

Clinical psychotherapist Dr Nikki Webber told Medical Daily: “Isolation is a leading contributing factor to depression and leading a busy lifestyle can offer more opportunities to connect to others, which many people underestimate the need for.”
