Spike proteins from COVID-19 vaccines are damaging your health

1/3/2025

0 Comments

Several new studies are finding more effects of the spike protein vaccines on the health of people who have had these shots.

As I reported in an earlier article here, even if someone doesn’t get initial side effects from the CV vaccines, it doesn’t mean that they are ok or won’t get ongoing or later issues. The main issue with the mRNA type vaccines (Pfizer or Moderna) or the GMO chimpanzee adenovirus vaccine (AstraZeneca) or others, is that they all trick your body and your cells to make the CV-19 spike protein to trigger an immune system response and to develop antibodies for protection against future exposures to this virus. This should also remind people that there’s another issue here, that these shots do not confer long-term or permanent antibodies or immunity, otherwise no-one who gets these shots should ever get COVID again, and we know that doesn’t happen! Vaccine-induced antibodies are short-lived and will wane and disappear, often as quickly as 1-2 months after the shot in some people. Hence why more and more “boosters” are being recommended.

But back to the main issue of all these CV-19 shots – that there is no “off” switch. People who have had these will continuously produce the spike proteins. Unfortunately the spike protein is not only the infective part of the coronavirus itself, but the most damaging part too. Hence it wasn’t the best protein to use for the vaccine antigen in hindsight. If your cells are continuously producing spike proteins, you will be affected by chronic inflammation, oxidative damage, and constant immune system triggers which damages and reduces the white blood cells (your immune system) and other effects, which leads to organ and cell damage, and reduced immune system function, which in turn causes increased predisposition to other infections and even cancers. This is why so many people now are finding they have thyroid conditions, low kidney function, liver damage and low function, infertility, heart disease, and increased mental health symptoms, and more cancers, because of the high inflammation and oxidative damage from the constant spike protein production.

I’ve also come across an article of 320 peer-reviewed and published studies showing that the spike protein used in the CV-19 shots are damaging (ie, pathogenic) to the body, and hence why these shots are causing so many side effects, and chronic symptoms and conditions. See the link in the References for more information on these studies (Wucher & Sass, 2024).

A recent study in pre-print (yet to be peer-reviewed) has found people who have had the CV-19 shots are still producing the spike proteins after 709 days (almost 2 years) after the last vaccination (Bhattacharjee et al., 2025). Other studies I have written about in the early days of these vaccines found people were still producing the spike proteins at 6 and 12 months later. As time goes on, there will likely be more long-term studies which find the spike proteins are still being produced over a longer period.

Other findings in this study include that 52% of people who had these shots had severe ongoing side effects, and 70% had some side effects within 10 days of vaccination. Also, high levels of exhausted white blood cell types, increased inflammation markers, and the general health of people who have had the shots was “far below” the general US population average, indicating a lower quality of life. The most frequent reported symptoms following these shot include excessive fatigue (85%), tingling and numbness (80%), exercise intolerance (80%), brain fog (77.5%), difficulty concentrating or focusing (72.5%), trouble falling or staying asleep (70%), neuropathy (70%), muscle aches (70%), anxiety (65%), tinnitus (60%) and burning sensations (57.5%).

Another peer-reviewed and published study has found that the spike protein can cross the placenta into an unborn foetus within ONE HOUR of the shot (Chen et al., 2025), and start to accumulate in foetal tissues in 4-6 hours. This was proven in mouse studies, as obviously we can’t use pregnant women in these studies, due to the huge potential risk to both the mother and baby. This is exactly why there is a scientific protocol and ethics boards who oversee these studies, to prevent pregnant women from being used in such studies. But we hear our doctors and so-called government health officials and advertising saying that these (and other) vaccines are safe for pregnant women! But there is no evidence of this safety AT ALL.

There ARE retrospective studies who have looked at pregnant women who went with their doctor’s advice and got the CV-19/mRNA shots, and these studies found that 92% of pregnant women had miscarriages as a result. I have previously posted on this with full references to studies and data showing this.

Always be informed and aware of what you put in or on your body, especially if you are pregnant (or planning on getting pregnant).

If you are having ongoing health issues from the continuous spike protein production, or have never been the same since these shots, there are ways to reduce the effects of the spike protein, and ways to even detoxify or remove them! This will need a personalised investigation and treatment plan, which is what I can do.

Stay healthy!

Documentary review: "Super size me 2: Holy chicken"!

1/3/2025

0 Comments

I've just come across the new food documentary of "Supersize me 2: Holy chicken", from Morgan Spurlock who produced the original food/health documentary called “Super size me” many years ago, where he lived on McDonalds meals 3 times a day and had doctors tracking his health before and during the documentary. The findings of this experiment were amazing and scary.

In this new documentary, he wants to open his own healthy fast food restaurant, based on chicken. He chose chicken because its lean (but we know that doesn't make it healthy!) and cheap (maybe not now with the chicken massacre going on due to the alleged bird flu infections).

It was interesting to see the decision-making process of deciding the chickens, the farming, meals and ingredients were more based on market trends and marketing terms, rather than being healthy.
The chosen chicken breed for meat is ready for the table in just 6 WEEKS, when not long ago it used to take 16-20 weeks. The poultry growers claim that growth hormones in chick is a myth... I'm not so sure about that in some countries. The chickens were growing so fast that they had bald patches, because their feather growth couldn't keep up with their incredibly fast growth rate. At 6 weeks old the chickens were 6 lb (2.7 kilos), and even when younger, the chickens could barely stand up to support their bodyweight. They spent most of their time sitting down and not moving around. The high growth rate caused many of the mega-chickens to die from heart disease and heart attacks. That's what happens to us humans too from a too-high carb diet. But the farmer growing his chickens said if they weren't dying from heart attacks, he would know they were not growing fast enough, so it was a good thing.

A vet performed an autopsy on some of the dead birds at 6 weeks old, and found necrosis in the hip joint, which he said was very common in these fast growing birds. He also found brittle bones, bent bones due to high body weight, and heart failure.

The US National Chicken Council, the "Big Chicken" lobby group of the industry, was described by one farmer in the documentary as being "a large mafia", as the organisation controls every aspect of the industry, from the breed, incubating the eggs, supplying hatchlings, feed, medications, and even encourages competition amongst growers to produce the biggest and best birds, for a reward of increased payments over other chicken farmers. And the farmers have no say in anything. If a farmer speaks out, the industry can make it impossible for them to make a profit to drive the farmer out of the system. An informer from the organisation explained that expensive upgrades to the chicken farms were forced onto the farmers, to keep them in debt and to have control over them.

Morgan wanted to market his chickens as "free range". The USDA (US Department of Agriculture) definition of "free-range" chicken means that the chickens are ALLOWED to have 51% access to daytime outside their sheds, but the chickens don't actually have to go outside. So he built a small 1 meter radius semicircle arc of a fence in the doorway of his massive shed, which could potentially allow a couple of his thousands of chickens to venture outside, but they didn't. But he could still call the meat as "free-range".

Another misleading term used in chickens is "cage-free", but chickens grown for meat in the US have never been raised in cages (unlike chickens that are produced for their eggs, where cages are very common). Another misleading term is "humanely raised", for which there are no guidelines as to what this actually means!

Marketing of foods in the documentary was also interesting, in using specific terms to make the foods or meals appear healthier when they are not. After coming up with some sample chicken "sandwiches" (actually a burger!) Morgan asked his marketing consultants "how healthy is a sandwich?", and everyone laughed...

He wanted to use the term "organic" to market his chicken in meals, but the chicken feed wasn't organic. It was mostly based on grains with corn then soy meal as the main ingredients, but also included pork meat and a massive shopping list of other ingredients including mould (Aspergillis) and a heap of anti-parasitic and anti-bacterial ingredients (oregano oil, garlic oil, clove oil and more), which actually cause dysbiosis (an imbalance of the gut microbiome) and this actually helps them put on more weight!

So since he can't call his chickens organic, he tried "all natural" instead, but an expert says that this is the most misleading claim in meat products. Consumers seem to think that "all natural" is similar to or is the same as "organic" in its meaning. It has nothing to do with what the animals are fed or their growing environment or whether they are given medications or antibiotics. According to the USDA, "all natural" means "minimally processed" and "no artificial ingredients" These guidelines only need to be applied AFTER the animal is killed.

In the US, poultry cannot be given hormones to make them grow faster, but producers still make the claim in their marketing or labelling that the chicken is "hormone-free".

So he can (and did) call his chicken meat products as "free range, cage-free, no hormones added, humanely-raised, 100% natural", and this could get the USDA's seal of approval! And Morgan quoted "that's some pretty good bullsh1t right there!". And the USDA don't have a budget to test or check anything, so they just rubber stamp everything.

The majority of the documentary was to highlight the ridiculousness of the wording used in the production and marketing of fast food products, and how marketing consultants can make up things to make food appear better or healthier, when they really aren't. And such companies get away with it, and people buy the BS. There was nothing in the documentary about the actual nutrition of these foods, or how they affect your health. With all this BS marketing, people think they can eat anything they want. And food companies use these techniques of human behaviour to suck you in and to increase their sales.

Morgan interviewed a professor of nutrition and he asked "what if there was a company who was completely honest with their customers?", to which she looked confused and said "why would they want to do that"!

Hilariously, Morgan used a lot of honest statements about the chickens and the industry in his marketing in the new restaurant including:
  • "Holy chicken (the name of the restaurant) too good to be true"
  • A "better for you, sounds great - means nothing" sticker on the burger/sandwich wrapper to hold it together
  • "Holy chickens are so awesome, they can hardly stand it", referring to how fat the chickens are that they can barely stand up
  • Having a sign in the restaurant showing how small the outdoor space needed to be for thousands of chickens to call them "free range"
  • Signs explaining that they use green paint and wood in the restaurant to give the impression of nature and healthy food
  • "No added asbestos or plutonium" signs on the wall!
  • And "We never use the F-word" referring to "fried" and why they use the word "crispy" instead, so people think the food is healthier, even though the chicken IS fried!
  • They point out all the w@nky marketing terms of "fresh", "artisanal", "green", "local", "all natural" and more, mean nothing but are used to trick people
  • And signs on the tables that explain the black horizontal "grill" marks on the chicken are actually PAINTED on (which much of the industry does), to give the impression of grilled chicken having more flavour, when the chicken is actually fried.

Morgan is at least very open and honest about everything, no doubt to the disgust of the "big chicken" industry. And the customers are shocked but loving his message. 4 days after opening the restaurant, several investors called him to want to franchise the brand all across the US! But it was just a short-term venture to get the message out to the public about the chicken industry and to make the documentary.

And the chicken farmers started lawsuits against the "big chicken" companies.

I recommend to watch the full "Super size me 2: Holy Chicken" documentary on your favourite streaming channel.

Stay healthy!

The trouble with ADHD medications

2/9/2024

0 Comments

 
Picture
In the typical medical treatment plan for ADHD is behavioural therapy and/or medications such as Methylphenidate (Ritalin), Dexamphetamine (Adderall) and Lisdexamphetamine (Vyvanse and Elvanse) to be taken forever.

However, medications may only offer symptom relief, but they do not address the root causes of the symptoms. But they also introduce new symptoms as side effects.
Some interesting findings about Methylphenidate/Ritalin, from the manufacturer's own research/information:


  • The method of action for Ritalin is unknown, according to the manufacturer! (but is assumed to be from an inhibition of dopamine and norepinephrine neurotransmitter reuptake)
  • “Safety and efficacy have not been established in children younger than 6yo” is a direct quote, yet many young children are prescribed this medication
  • “There are no adequate studies in women for determining infant risk when using this medication during breastfeeding”
  • There are lots of food and medication interactions with Ritalin, including alcohol and tobacco
  • Ritalin contains lactose, sugars, milk products, talc, iron oxide colours, lactitol, gluten and sulphur dioxide - all ingredients which are known to exacerbate ADHD symptoms
  • The manufacturer recommends that this medication should be stopped during low-stress times
  • If symptoms don’t improve over one month, the drug should be stopped according to the manufacturer
  • The medication is not tested for effects on fertility, however it is not recommended for women of childbearing age, or during pregnancy, or breastfeeding, yet it is still prescribed and taken by many women in this age group
  • Ritalin can cause nutrient deficiencies of vitamin C, vitamin B6, vitamin B12 and probably more. All of these vitamin deficiencies can cause ADHD or make symptoms worse
  • Many side effects of taking Ritalin are also contraindications which prevent it from being taken, including high blood pressure, heart and circulation issues, depression, anxiety, psychosis
  • Other side effects of concern include vision issues, suicidal thoughts and ideation, neuropathy (nerve damage/pain), hallucinations, weight gain, growth retardation in children, increased heat stress risk in athletes, and sudden death
  • Ritalin contains sucralose, an artificial sweetener, which can make symptoms worse, and is also known to cause cancers.
With these risks and side effects, there MUST be another way to treat ADHD. There is, by finding all the root causes in each person.

There is a high tendency of ADHD to run in families, but this doesn't mean that it's inherited. If people in a family eat the same crappy foods, have the same poor lifestyle, have the same stresses and poor stress responses, and exposed to the same toxins and chemicals, then it can appear to be an inherited condition. Inherited conditions often also need environmental triggers like chronic stress or trauma, nutrient deficiencies, toxins and chemicals, and other factors.

This is what I do for ADHD - thorough investigations to find all the root causes in each person, then develop a personalised treatment plan to fix the root causes. This gives quick symptom relief, as well as long-term resolution too!

There are much better ways to reduce ADHD symptoms and improve quality of life!

Anaemia, hypoxia and low iron are risk factors for many chronic diseases and symptoms

7/5/2023

2 Comments

Anaemia is a very common issue in many people, but its causes are often ignored or misunderstood and its risks are understated, as unknown or untreated anaemia can be a cause of many signs and symptoms, including some serious ones, including:
​
  • Low energy and fatigue
  • Shortness of breath
  • Cold and/or pale hands and feet
  • Headaches and migraines
  • Weight gain
  • Mental health symptoms and conditions - anxiety, depression, and neurological conditions
  • Poor healing of wounds, or other skin conditions
  • Dizziness, fainting, and brain fog
  • Heart conditions - angina, tachycardia (high pulse rate), hypertension (high blood pressure)
  • And even cancers.
If you have any of these symptoms or conditions, you should get some blood tests done and analysed properly to see if there is anaemia contributing to this. More on testing later.

There are many types of anaemia, but "anaemia" is defined as having low red blood cell count and/or low haemoglobin levels in blood tests. Iron deficiency anaemia is very common in my clients, but it's often not being tested or identified or treated properly.

Iron is needed, amongst other things, to make haemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying protein in the red blood cells. If there's not enough iron, haemoglobin production and red blood cell production and function will be affected, causing poor circulation, reduced oxygen supply to the cells and tissues, reduced function of all cells, reduced energy (as oxygen is needed for energy production), and other symptoms of muscle aches and pains, headaches and migraines, heart pains, higher heart/pulse rate (as the heart compensates for the lower oxygen supply), higher blood pressure, poor stamina, brain fog and confusion, fainting and dizziness, shortness of breath, pallor (pale skin), and more.

The low oxygen level and poor circulation causes hypoxia, being low levels of oxygen in the body tissues. Other than with the above symptoms, hypoxia can be tested either with your doctor or other health practitioner with a "pulse oximeter" and confirmed with blood tests too. However, start with blood tests if you have any of the above symptoms, as a lower oxygen saturation level from a pulse oximeter can be slower to see the effects of the low iron and low haemoglobin levels.

If an iron deficiency anaemia is found, treating this with an iron supplement or even iron infusion in severe cases, may give some symptom relief, but doesn't fix the problem or its causes. There are risks and side effects to many iron supplements and even from an iron infusion.

Just taking iron supplements to improve haemoglobin or red blood cell levels isn't the answer to hypoxia. There are multiple root causes of low iron levels, anaemia and hypoxia, which all need to be checked and confirmed or ruled out, before implementing a plan to fix the causes of the low iron and low circulation and low oxygen levels. However, you need to get your blood test results interpreted properly from an IIFP trained practitioner (via the Institute for Integrative and Functional Pathology) and not your GP. This link explains why and what you can do about getting a more holistic analysis of your blood test results:

www.pathologyanalysis.com

Finding and treating the hypoxia and iron deficiency anaemia isn't difficult and doesn't take too long! And people with chronic iron deficiency anaemia and hypoxia will start to feel improvements and reduction of symptoms quite quickly!

When the level of red blood cells and haemoglobin increase, there will be improved circulation and oxygen supply to cells and tissues, and many symptoms will reduce and you will feel a lot better! This can prevent the more serious complications of chronic anaemia listed above.

Stay healthy!

The alkaline diet is a myth and can make your health worse

28/4/2023

0 Comments

You might have heard of the alkaline diet? It seems to be one of the nutrition and health trends over the past 10+ years, mainly through social media articles and so-called nutrition gurus. But is it really good for you and your health?

You might be a bit shocked at this info... but the only person who seems to have benefited from the alkaline diet is the author of the book who created this controversial advice. Dr Robert Young wrote a book on the alkaline diet, called The pH Miracle: Balance Your Diet, Reclaim Your Health, in 2002. It quickly became a bestseller and made him lots of money, mainly as it was completely new  and wasn't something that people had been told before.

But it was mostly BS. And his advice and recommendations caused a lot of harm to a lot of people.
Young's work and treatments provided at his US-based ranch, were based on the theory that acidity in the body is the cause of disease, and that an alkaline diet is the answer (Financial Review, 2018). But the acidity/alkaline theory was only based on misinformation and misunderstandings of previous studies.

If like me, you frequently see health related social media posts saying that you should eat alkaline foods or drink alkalised water (such as baking soda drinks), or to alkalise your body to improve your health, or even prevent cancer, because (allegedly) cancer cannot survive in an alkaline body... ignore them! These posts are completely wrong!

If you actually follow or implement those ideas, then please read this and consider the real facts, because you may actually be doing your body and your health more harm than good. Sorry...

The facts are:

- acidity or alkalinity is measured on the pH scale from 0 (highly acidic) to 7 (neutral) to 14 (highly basic or alkaline)

- your body has different pH in different fluids and organs for good reasons

- your body only works well within a small pH range for that particular organ or fluid, for example, blood pH should be within 7.35 and 7.45; a very small range, outside of which YOU DIE

-  your saliva or urine pH (from test strips etc) bears no resemblance of what is going on in the rest of your body

- various areas of the body MUST be acidic, to repel bacteria, virus, parasite and yeast infections, such as on your skin and in your stomach and gastrointestinal, urinary and reproductive tracts. These microbes actually LIKE an alkaline environment and thrive in it!

- the stomach being highly acidic will digest foods into their smaller components, which are no longer acidic or alkaline... Hence the foods you eat do NOTHING to either acidify or alkalise your body

- your body has 5 pH buffering (ie, balancing) systems to keep various organs of fluids within the small pH range necessary for optimal function. Consuming too much acidic foods or drinks will simply be balanced out with production of more alkaline compounds and increased excretion of the acids! Or the opposite - if consuming just alkaline foods, this will be countered by the body making more acid compounds to bring the organ or tissues into correct balance again!

- there is the public perception that cancer cannot survive in an alkaline environment, and therefore why we need to eat and drink more alkaline products and avoid acidic foods. The real fact is that cancer cells have a disordered metabolism and only produce energy via a process called glycolysis, from which a major by-product is lactate, also called lactic ACID! Hence it is the cancer cells producing the acidic environment, NOT the acidic environment causing the cancer...

Then there's my (least) favourite social media health advice of recommending drinking alkalised water with bicarbonate (baking soda) to prevent disease and cancer! This comes from old research from an Italian cancer Doctor Tullio Simoncini who produced research that he killed cancer cells with alkaline baking soda. HOWEVER, he INJECTED baking soda into tumours, and found this killed cancer cells. BUT it isn't actually the alkalinity which kills the cancer cells, but by the "osmotic shift" in fluid from within the cancer cells into the higher alkaline fluid injected into the tumour. The cancer cells became damaged, then dehydrated and died as a result.

Unfortunately people have just taken the "baking soda kills cancer cells" headline and run off with the idea that baking soda and alkalinity can be taken in any form as a cheap and simple cancer prevention or treatment! Nothing could be further from the truth.

Drinking baking soda water will hit your stomach and neutralise some of the stomach acid! This will reduce the effectiveness of the acidic stomach to kill bacteria and viruses and other pathogens (leading to more infections), AND reduce the amount of digestion of foods that the stomach can break down, which in turn means a reduced absorption of digested nutrients which your body really needs, and in turn your entire body and health will suffer. Your stomach needs to be highly acidic in order to properly break down carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins B9 (folate), B12, iron, and to release many minerals which you can then absorb and use. If you don't have enough acidity in your stomach, you won't absorb these nutrients and your health will suffer.

Alkaline foods can be very healthy, but so can acidic foods (tomatoes, citrus, pineapple, and many others). Just because some foods are acidic doesn't mean they are bad, and similarly, just because some foods are alkaline doesn't mean they are healthy! To be healthy, you need to eat a variety of foods, and not restrict your intake based on an incorrect assumption or misinterpretation of a story based on a food's pH level!

Anyway, back to Dr Young... He was recently ordered to pay US$105 MILLION (AUD$146 Million) in damages to just one of his clients, for misrepresenting himself as a medical doctor (which he isn't!), having fraudulent PhD qualifications from a unaccredited institution, recommending a client to stop their medical treatment for cancer to instead do his alkaline treatments which didn't work and the person's cancer progressed to Stage 4 (Financial Review, 2018). As well as the massive fine, he was disqualified from practicing, forced to admit publicly that he isn't a medical doctor or a scientist, and sentenced to several months in jail.

The alkaline diet is a hoax, non-scientific, and completely ridiculous. At best it is useless, but could be quite dangerous for your health.

Stay balanced, and healthy!

Fibre for constipation is a myth & CAN MAKE SYMPTOMS WORSE

28/4/2023

0 Comments

Fibre for gut health is a myth, and constipation is not treated from eating more fibre.

There is a general consensus amongst health and medical professionals and the general public that we need "fibre" for our gut health, for our gut microbiome, to reduce or prevent constipation, and for our overall health.
​
Science is not about having a "consensus" or general agreement of a percentage of people, but of finding the truth.

There is a similar belief that constipation is caused by a lack of fibre, or that consuming MORE fibre will relieve constipation. Nothing could be further from the truth...

Firstly, the definition of constipation is: "Constipation is a condition in which you may have fewer than three bowel movements a week; stools that are hard, dry, or lumpy; stools that are difficult or painful to pass; or a feeling that not all stool has passed" (NIH, 2023).

And the definition of fibre: "Fibre is found in the indigestible parts of cereals, fruits and vegetables, which pass relatively unchanged through our stomach and intestines." (Better Health Channel, 2023). "Fibre" is just cellulose, which humans cannot digest or use.

As a Clinical Nutritionist and Naturopath, my goal for each client is to find all of the root causes of all of their conditions and symptoms. I know that all of their symptoms and conditions are caused by the same few root causes. I also know that Doctors don't think or work this way, and neither do most other health practitioners.

Constipation has many possible causes, and in one person, they can (and usually do) have multiple causes for this symptom. Constipation can be caused by:
  1. Nerve issues, especially of the vagus nerve and its enteric nervous system which controls the digestive tract. These nerve issues can be from poor nerve conduction, or nerve damage
  2. Poor stomach function. If the stomach isn't digesting your foods well, from a lack of acid and enzymes, then you can end up with constipation
  3. Low thyroid function. The thyroid gland controls your metabolic rate and function of every cell and organ, hence a low functioning thyroid will cause low functioning digestive system and therefore constipation
  4. Nutrient deficiencies. Many nutrients are needed by the body and the digestive system to work properly. Contrary to popular belief, constipation is not usually caused by a lack of magnesium, or that constipation is fixed by taking magnesium
  5. Low water intake. Water is not only needed for stomach function but also for digesting foods, motility of the digested foods through the digestive system, and metabolism of nutrients. Low water intake will affect stomach function and cause constipation
  6. Medications. Many medications interfere with normal metabolic functions to cause constipation. Ironically, long-term use of laxative medications (prescribed FOR constipation) can cause constipation as a side effect
  7. Stress. Stress causes many physiological, biochemical and hormone changes, which can slow down digestive functions to cause constipation
  8. Lack of physical activity. Exercise can stimulate digestive system function, or inactivity or a sedentary lifestyle can contribute to constipation
  9. Dysbiosis. An imbalance of your digestive microbiome, which is actually caused from your dietary choices and the result of how well your stomach is working...
  10. Lack of bile salts. From poor liver and gall bladder function
  11. Too many meals per day.
  12. Other causes.

Eating extra fibre will NOT fix constipation for any of these causes of constipation! In fact, I guarantee that eating more fibre will slow down digestive motility and CAUSE or worsen constipation. I've certainly noticed this myself.

"But, but, but... what about the gut microbiome?", I hear you say! The gut microbiome changes with each meal, based on the foods you eat, and how well your stomach is working too. The wider your food variety, and a well-functioning stomach, the better for your gut microbiome. Yes the gut microbiome can use or digest some fibre from our foods, but they are not essential nutrients.

The microbiome is not just in your digestive tract. You have trillions of microbiome on your skin, in various other tracts (reproductive, urinary, respiratory, oral cavity, and more), and in various organs and tissues too. What about the microbiome on or in these areas? Where do they get their fibre from?! They don't. They don't need it.

I've previously been concerned with people who take on a carnivore diet, about their lack of fibre and digestive issues. I've tried this for months and had no issues with constipation at all.

But don't take my word for it - it's in many studies too... Including a 2012 study finding no medical or known causes for constipation in 63 people, who were recommended to go on a NO-FIBRE diet for 2 weeks (Ho, You Mei Tan, Daud, & Seow-Choen, 2012). Those who reduced their fibre intake had a significant improvement in their constipation symptoms, while those who resumed a high fibre diet had no improvement. The no fibre group reduced their (in)frequency of their bowel movements from one every 3.75 DAYS to ONE bowel motion DAILY, which is amazing and a massive improvement. With no fibre. There were additional benefits of NO BLOATING in the no-fibre group too!

In other studies, it is found that people with constipation have similar fibre intake to those who don't have much fibre (Preston & Lennard-Jones, 1986), or that those with chronic constipation have worse symptoms when fibre is increased (Müller-Lissner, Kamm, Scarpignato, & Wald, 2005).

Other issues with fibre, and especially too much fibre, is that it increases the bulk or amount of volume of the stools. Fibre causes congestion or a traffic jam in your digestive tract... hence why increasing more fibre with an IBS or SIBO diagnosis will make your constipation so much worse. Fibre causes your gut microbiome to FERMENT the fibre-rich foods to cause GAS and BLOATING, which is a very common issue.

So much for the common vegan belief that meat causes constipation and fermentation, and that plant foods fix this. It doesn't.

Constipation can be reduced and even completely eliminated (pun intended!), but only by finding and fixing all the root causes in each person. I've fixed chronic constipation in some people who thought they had tried all the medications and supplements for 30-40 years without success. And everyone will be different. If constipation is an issue for you, or anyone you know, then I can help!

Stay healthy!

Feb 4 is World Cancer Day.

In many people who have cancer, and who have the typical medical "treatments" of surgery, chemotherapy and radiation, the cancer often comes back. This can be for a couple of reasons.

The medical treatments focus on the SYMPTOMS, which is the cancer itself. To either cut out the symptom with surgery, or poison the symptom with chemotherapy, or to nuke it with radiation.

For every cancer (or other symptom or condition) there are ALWAYS root causes which triggered the issue and which continue to cause its progression. In fact there's usually a combination of multiple root causes in each person which cause the issue.

But the medical model doesn't work on the root causes. It's not in their training or how they work. At all. They just treat the cancer (the symptom), typically as a standard protocol, which means they are treating the condition or diagnosis, and not you as an individual.

If you don't get your own root causes of your cancer (or other symptom or condition) identified and fixed or removed, then your cancer will return again and again until you do fix those root causes.

Also, the medical "treatments" of chemotherapy and radiation are well known to cause additional toxicity and DNA damage to cells and the body, and to reduce immune system function. These are also causes of why cancers come back.

There are a lot of known causes of cancer, numbered in the many hundreds, which MUST be identified, removed and treated. This can put the brakes on the cancer progression, and to allow the body to start to heal. Treating all the root causes in each person can also prevent cancer recurrence, and for long-term prevention.

To find out more about the many causes of cancer, for prevention or for treatment, I have a 5-hour webinar on this topic!

My Cancer Prevention Webinar 2023 includes the history and statistics of cancer to show how the medical model for cancer isn't working, the many common causes of cancer and the causes of the most common cancers, myths and misinformation about cancer prevention and treatments, testing for cancers, and more. This webinar is for those with cancer and their families, for health practitioners, and those who want to improve their general health and prevent cancer.

Access to the recording is available immediately with a ticket, and you can access this webinar as often as needed and with no expiry. More details here:

New dangers of sunscreens containing toxic and harmful ingredients, including some causing cancer and hormone effects

21/11/2022

For over 7 years I have been warning people on the health dangers and toxicity of sunscreens. I have investigated and written on the ingredients in sunscreens and how they actually INCREASE the risks of skin cancers and melanoma (the most dangerous type) and other health issues.
​
Sunscreens cause more skin cancers (and other cancers) because of their toxic ingredients which are known to cause cancer, but also due to HOW they work - sunscreens block UV-B light to prevent the skin redness and burning, and prevents production of vitamin D which protects against cancer (!), but this gives you a false sense of security to stay outside in the sun longer to be exposed to more UV-A light, which is the one that causes skin damage and skin cancers...

I personally approached sunscreen manufacturers such as the "Cancer Council" about the ingredients they use in their sunscreens, and the many toxic chemicals, hormone disrupting chemicals (affecting male/female hormones or thyroid function), and known cancer-causing chemicals they use. They denied there was any problem, despite many published studies on the chemicals they use causing these health effects.

So every Spring and Summer I call them out on this, so that people are aware and don't use their dangerous sunscreens. There are much better and safer options available.

Karma might have caught up with the "Cancer Council" in May 2022, when their sunscreens had elevated levels of a cancer-causing chemical (Benzene) in them, and they were forced to make this information public and recall some of their products (TGA, 2022). But they have had these dangerous chemicals in their sunscreens for many years and they did nothing. For example, their "everyday" sunscreens had several known cancer-causing chemicals, AND several hormone-disrupting chemicals, and other toxic chemicals, and some chemicals banned in other countries, in ONE product.

Perhaps as a result of this finding, and perhaps my warnings (I'd like to think so!) the Cancer Council changed the ingredients in some of their products recently in 2022. So I checked out their products and ingredients again, and here it is...

The Cancer Council have so many more products now, mostly with the same toxic ingredients in each product, but some variations too. Their "everyday" sunscreen has one less chemical now, which wasn't one that was known to cause cancer, but did cause neurotoxicity and disruptions to hormones. The "everyday" product still contains 2 cancer-causing chemicals, 2 hormone-disrupting chemicals, and one being damaging the environment or wildlife.

I investigated some of their other sunscreens too, including their "ultra" and "kids" products. The "ultra" product has many more chemicals than the "everyday" product, and more toxic too, with 3 cancer-causing chemicals, 3 hormone-disrupting chemicals, and 3 which are toxic to the environment and wildlife.

The Cancer Council's "kids" product has the same number of chemicals as the "ultra" product, with most being the same, and containing 2 cancer-causing chemicals, 2 hormone-disrupting chemicals, but 3 which are toxic to the environment or wildlife. If you had children, would you really put this on them now?

The Cancer Council is well named isn't it... adding cancer-causing chemicals to their products which are supposed to prevent cancer, but actually causing it instead.

This article shows the importance of always checking the ingredients and chemicals not just in your foods, but what you put on your skin. What you put on your skin is typically absorbed into your body.

Luckily there are better and safer ways to prevent skin cancers, without the avoidance of healthy sun exposure that you need for vitamin D and other health benefits, and without being exposed to toxic and harmful chemicals.

Stay healthy!

ABS data shows 75% drop in birth rates since COVID-19 vaccines being approved and recommended for pregnant women

14/11/2022

One of the most controversial and tragic in all of the events over the past 3 years, despite assurances of the so-called health experts and government officials, is the effects of the "CV-19 carrot" (the so-called "prevention/treatment") on pregnant women and foetuses.

In 2021 I reported on a CDC-funded study which showed an extremely high rate of miscarriages and stillbirths in pregnant women who had the mRNA shots, at approximately 82% (Shimabukuro et al., 2021). But the authors of the study ignored the data and still claimed the carrots were perfectly safe! An independent study reviewed their data some months later and reported issues with their data and explicitly concluded an 82-92% pregnancy loss that was ignored in the original study (Brock & Thornley, 2021). This finding was dismissed by the mRNA carrot manufacturers, and medical professionals, and any posts warning people on this (including mine) were fact-checked as "false" by the social media platforms, and anyone posting such information were censored and thrown in FB jail.

Given a bit more time and the truth always comes out, or becomes harder to hide...

The most current statistics of birth rates from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS), shows the tragic results of the mRNA carrots that were mandated/forced/coerced to pregnant women, despite no safety testing every being done, as pregnant women are not allowed to be used in medical trials.

Australias's birth rates have been steadily increasing from 18,000-20,000 in 1975 to approximately 22,000-25,000 in 2019-2020. Until the mRNA carrots were introduced in February 2021... (ABS, 2022).

Since May 2021, being 3 months from the start of the carrot program, the birth rates have dropped EVERY MONTH from 25,669 to just over 23,000 in October 2021... to just over 18,000 in November 2021, the lowest since well before 1975...

To just 6,659 in December 2021.

That's an approximately 75% DROP in birth rates in 6 months, or in just 10 months since the carrots were introduced, which is coincidentally the same as the duration of a human pregnancy at approximately 40 weeks or 10 months.

The data is not just about the drop in birth rates, but the approximate 20,000 babies who died from the the effects of the mRNA carrots injected during pregnancy.

The 2022 ABS data has not yet been released.

I heard of so many anecdotal stories of mothers losing their babies in pregnancy, from spontaneous abortions and miscarriages in 2021 and 2022. But some people believe that anecdotal evidence bears no scientific merit, but anecdotal evidence is ALWAYS seen first, before published studies. In new situations, anecdotal evidence MUST always be seen as the highest form of scientific evidence.

So it appears that the abovementioned 2 studies on the dangers of the carrots in pregnant women were tragically right. The heads of some companies, health officials, employers and others responsible, need to be held accountable for this, with compensation for the women affected, fines for the companies and directors, and perhaps even jail time for health officials who said the carrots were "safe and effective".
 
Stay healthy.

TGA warns of vitamin B6 causing peripheral neuropathy

14/11/2022

2 Comments

 
Picture
On October 4th 2022, Australia's medicines regulator, the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) announced that due to an increase in adverse events reports on products containing vitamin B6, that the recommended maximum dose of vitamin B6 in supplements is being reduced, and products containing vitamin B6 now need to show a warning on the label that vitamin B6 can cause peripheral neuropathy symptoms (TGA, 2022).

The TGA has updated their regulations so that all products containing a daily dose of vitamin B6 above 10 mg require a warning about peripheral neuropathy. To limit exposure to excessive doses, the maximum permitted daily dose of vitamin B6 in products has also been reduced from 200 mg to 100 mg for adults, with lower daily dose limits in place for children depending on their age.

Neuropathy is a diagnosis from nerve damage leads to feelings of burning, pain, weakness, numbness or tingling in one or more parts of the body. Peripheral neuropathy relates to nerve damage which affects the extremities of the body, typically the hands and feet.

Peripheral neuropathy can also occur from other causes, including a vitamin B12 deficiency, autoimmune conditions, and nerve damage from diabetes conditions. If you experience these symptoms, stop taking any supplement products or combinations which have vitamin B6 as "pyridoxine hydrochloride", and see your practitioner as soon as possible.

Vitamin B6 is an essential nutrient, and in foods, it does not cause peripheral neuropathy, partly as foods contain other nutrients which negate the effects of B6 to prevent the neuropathy, and partly as the form of vitamin B6 in most supplements is the synthetic/artificial form of vitamin B6 without the other nutrients to prevent the neuropathy...

Peripheral neuropathy is, however, typically associated with a DEFICIENCY of vitamin B6! But it is also alleged that an excess of B6 (ie, toxicity) can also cause the peripheral neuropathy. The TGA based their decision on many adverse reports from people taking vitamin B6 supplements and having elevated B6 levels in their blood tests. A good practitioner with knowledge of nutrition and blood tests will know that you never test for vitamin B6 levels as it's such an inaccurate test and should never be relied on as an accurate marker of B6 status...

Some supplement products contain both the inactive form of vitamin B6 as pyridoxine hydrochloride together with the active form, called P5P. I also know from published studies that show that if taken together, the inactive B6 will inhibit the body's use of P5P, and hence causing the high levels of B6 and at the same time causing a functional deficiency of vitamin B6, which in turn is causing the peripheral neuropathy.

Vitamin B6 in supplements, especially the inactive form of pyridoxine hydrochloride, should never be taken on its own, or without the other B-vitamins as these balance the B6 and prevent the neuropathy. However, many retail multi-vitamin products or B-complex products, will have the inactive form of B6 and other poor B vitamins and these can also cause neuropathy if taken long-term. Products containing both pyridoxine hydrochloride and P5P should also be avoided. I have not seen any peripheral neuropathy from the active form of B6, being P5P.

There are ways to prevent peripheral neuropathy, depending on the causes of it, as there are causes other than being from vitamin B6. There are also ways to reverse peripheral neuropathy. Stopping any supplement products with pyridoxine hydrochloride is the first step. Then see me for more advice on how to stop the neuropathy symptoms and reverse them!

Stay healthy!

Heart disease sign to look out for in self, friends and family

14/11/2022

0 Comments

Heart disease is the largest cause of mortality in men and women in Western countries. There are are many different types of heart disease, many signs of heart disease, and many possible tests to check for these conditions. Early diagnosis is essential for getting a treatment to reduce the risks of mortality. But sadly all too often, those with higher risks of heart disease don't get tests done regularly to find the warning signs and make the preventative treatments required.

But there are some less well known physical signs of heart disease risk, which should perhaps become more well known by family members and friends, in order to recommend or persuade those with the risk factors to seek professional help with testing, diagnosis and treatment. The physical sign, that being externally visible, even if the person doesn't feel unhealthy, is called Frank's sign, or diagonal earlobe crease (Więckowski, Gallina, Surdacki & Chyrchel, 2021).

While the earlobe crease is a little known and seldom-used, it is quick and non-invasive and easy to interpret and should be used according to the referenced study and others.
These studies suggest that the earlobe crease is a sign of chronic hypoxia (low oxygen levels), possibly from atherosclerosis (plaques in the major arteries which can reduce blood flow) and low oxygen supply to the cells and tissues.

The referenced study concluded that the diagnostic accuracy of the earlobe crease is comparable to the traditional electrocardiography (ECG) testing in detecting significant coronary stenosis/blockages and hypoxia. It shouldn't be the only test used, but isn't always a clinically accurate indicator in all cases. But it can give big clues to friends and family to look for this sign and recommend (or persuade) those with this sign to get some proactive testing and treatment if needed.

Medical advice and testing is needed for those with the Frank's earlobe crease, but medical advice does not include finding the root causes of the heart disease, but only to temporarily remove the issue with surgery and "manage" it with medications that cause more symptoms, and not about prevention or stopping the issue coming back.

Natural therapies are more focussed on prevention and finding and fixing the root causes in each person. This is where I can help - if you have this earlobe sign, or know someone who does, please see me for testing advice, and also for root cause analysis and proactive preventative advice and treatments.

Stay healthy!

Renowned Cardiologist calls it a pandemic of misinformation

30/9/2022

0 Comments

 
Picture
Hindsight is always amazing... When you look back at decisions or choices made and reflect on whether that was the right thing to do, or did it work, or were there in fact issues that could be corrected or avoided for next time.

Dr Aseem Malhotra is an experienced and renowned heart surgeon and Cardiologist in London, UK. In a very recent interview to promote his two new published studies, he reflected on what has happened with regard to the COVID-19 vaccine program and was there a cost-benefit outcome from this worldwide clinical trial on (almost) every man, woman and child? His two studies may be seen as controversially titled, but I think is very fair and accurate - entitled "Curing the pandemic of misinformation on COVID-19 mRNA vaccines through real evidence-based medicine", parts 1 and 2 (Malhotra, 2022a; Malhotra, 2022b).

In the interview about these 2 new studies (Youtube, 2022), Dr Malhotra said he was very pro-vaccine, and got the two Pfizer shots early in their promotion, and he was even on TV shows promoting and recommending people to get them, and even attacking those who had "vaccine hesitancy" (those who didn't want to get the shots because of their lack of testing and having major risks). He said he got the shots and was promoting them as he said "I didn't conceive even the possibility, even though he had some scepticism of the benefit, I didn't think it would cause any significant harm at all". He then said that information changed and evolved, and he started looking at the data on the benefits vs side effects of the COVID-19 shots more critically because his father suffered a sudden heart attack and passed away in July 2021 and his post-mortem findings didn't make sense to him, with critical heart issues showing, despite being fit and healthy and having no family history of heart disease. His father's health and lifestyle, he said, was much better in recent years after getting a coronary calcium score test and other good test results.

Dr Malhotra then started seeing more information on the mRNA vaccines (Pfizer and Moderna) showing that they cause coronary inflammation and increase heart attack risk, and huge 25% increase in heart attacks in 16-39 year olds which was explicitly linked to the mRNA vaccines and not to the COVID-19 infection as such. And the icing on the cake with clear potential harms of these vaccines, which isn't being discussed, based in a published study in the Vaccine journal, re-evaluating the original randomised controlled data from the Pfizer and Moderna clinical trials, of the data which lead to their being approved for use, showing that someone is more likely to suffer a SERIOUS adverse event (such as a life-changing disability, hospitalisation etc) from the mRNA vaccines at a rate of one in 800 vaccines given. The risk of a serious vaccine reaction was higher than the risk of being hospitalised from the COVID-19 infection. Other studies of real-world data shows similar rates confirming the side effect risks of the mRNA vaccines is higher than being hospitalised from COVID-19, with Norway data showing a risk of one in 926 vaccines. This data is still based on the official REPORTED cases to government adverse events databases. The risk of the most vulnerable group, being the over-80s being hospitalised from COVID-19 is just one in 7000. True numbers of mRNA vaccine side effects are likely to be MUCH higher, with 90+% of adverse events not being reported at all.

Based on this data and his findings, Dr Malhotra recommends that the mRNA vaccines must be stopped while further investigations are done.

Another issue that Dr Malhotra has about the COVID-19 vaccine program is the right of "informed consent", being that people have an absolute right to decide for themselves on their health choices and their body, being based on good quality "evidence" from studies and data and "health officials" giving people that good quality information as risks vs benefits of the shots.

The second part of the two studies that Dr Malhotra has just published is about looking at "how we got it wrong, why we got it wrong, and what are the solutions moving forward". He has previously on three occasions called for public enquiries into excess deaths from prescribed medications, as deaths from doctors prescribing drugs is the THIRD most common cause of death behind heart disease and cancer.

Dr Malhotra says one of the biggest problems in health and medicine is "big pharma", referring to the major pharmaceutical companies with their "unchecked power", and "who function in ways which are anti-human, and they are profit-making machines, and they function like a psychopath, and have a history of deceiving people for profit and causing unnecessary harm".

Moving forward he says we need to:
  1. Make sure that the medicines regulator isn't funded by the pharmaceutical industry, as the UK, US and Australian regulators certainly are, and in many other countries too
  2. Disassociate medical education from pharmaceutical company sponsorship
  3. Have independent testing of pharmaceutical drugs, and not relying on the pharma companies to do this (and manipulate their data).

Dr Malhotra agreed with the interviewer that the lack of any evidence of the COVID-19 vaccines preventing transmission made the vaccine mandates were absurd, unethical and criminal. He said that instead, the focus should have been on open discussions of the risks vs benefits and helping the most vulnerable, which would have likely given better outcomes with less harm, rather than the vaccines causing more harm than good in most people. The only benefit of the vaccine mandates was to the profit line of the pharma companies, despite the "extremely poor efficacy and unprecedented harm" they caused, and they are not interested in your health. He said we have to rebuild (the medical and health system) and move forward, by fixing the problems with "root cause analysis". All problems can be truly fixed by finding and fixing the root causes of the problem, not just symptom relief. He said even Doctors do not realise that the government medical regulators are part of the problem, with no independent testing being done on vaccines or medications.

His words of "root cause analysis" caught my attention, as this is what I do! I've known for a long time that this is what is needed to resolve health issues, but this is not the medical way that only "manages" the symptoms by hiding them with medications designed to suppress them, or surgeries to remove the symptom, but never to find and fix the causes. Because there was no training in root cause analysis in our education, and the same for Doctors, I've had to invent a process to help find all the root causes in each person. This helps me greatly with each client, and helps them to get better much more quickly and for long-term resolution of all symptoms and conditions.

Are we going heading toward oblivion, or should we start changing track to Utopia? His words.

Cancer scare in hand sanitisers

7/6/2022

0 Comments

 
Picture
Are you still using hand sanitiser? Perhaps you shouldn't, as an independent investigation in the US found toxic amounts of cancer-causing benzene chemicals in many hand sanitiser products. Benzene is known to cause Leukaemia, a type of blood cancer.

An independent laboratory (Valisure) that tests drug products for safety tested 260 hand sanitiser products and found elevated levels of benzene in 21 of them (CBS New York, 2022). Benzene was still found in most of them, but within alleged "safe" limits, which might also be questionable. Some products did have no detectable benzene in them (Valisure, 2022).

The US regulator of such products, the FDA, apparently relaxed their standards on benzene in products, which allowed companies to get away with adding more into hand sanitiser and not be investigated.

So this is another warning message to always check the ingredients list of products you buy, whether it be food or washing or cleaning products, make-up, or anything that can come in contact with your skin.

Check your hand sanitiser product ingredients and if there is any benzene in it, throw it out. Just using soap and water is enough to keep your hands clean.

Be healthy!

May 12th is Fibromyalgia awareness day

7/6/2022

May 12th every year is Fibromyalgia Awareness Day, to raise awareness of people living with this condition, and other chronic pain conditions of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME) or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS).

People with Fibromyalgia (FM), ME or CFS cannot often do their daily routines of working or physical activity or exercise, as these conditions can be so debilitating.

Many people suffer from physical pain, which can arise from many causes, including:

1. Physical injuries or accidents
2. Specific medical conditions
3. Nerve damage
4. Unknown or undiagnosed causes.

Fibromyalgia, ME and CFS typically are thought to be in the category of "unknown or undiagnosed causes". But I differ in opinion, as I have seen huge improvements in many clients with these conditions.

There are many health conditions which cause pain, or that are diagnosed as the result of the pain such as:

1. Inflammatory conditions - any diagnosis ending in "...itis" (like arthritis, appendicitis, colitis etc) is just inflammation in that part of the body. It can be inflammation that causes pain in many people, such as those with FM and ME
2. Hypoxia and poor circulation and anaemia - due to low iron levels and other nutrient deficiencies, or reduced thyroid or lung or heart conditions, cells of the body will not get enough oxygen or nutrients and will be "screaming out in pain for them"
3. Low thyroid function - the thyroid gland is the master controller of your metabolic rate, and hence energy production and function of all cells in your body. Low thyroid function can cause chronic fatigue, but there are many factors which can affect thyroid function which need to be checked and fixed in these conditions.

Pain or fatigue are major symptoms of the body telling you that something is not right and you need to change or fix what is wrong. Continuing to do the same things with your diet and lifestyle won't make the pain or fatigue go away.

Pain medications are a band-aid and don't fix the causes of them problem. They just try to hide the pain so you feel better for a short time. But pain medications cause a lot of other symptoms from their side effects and damage to the body, especially to the liver, digestive system, kidneys and other areas. Hence why you shouldn't rely on these medications, but to find and fix the root causes of the pain and to fix those root causes. This is what I do.

Don't struggle to live with fatigue or pain. There are other and better ways to find and fix the causes and improve your quality of life again.

The many coincidences of a Monkeypox outbreak

7/6/2022

Picture
You might have seen recent news stories of another infection suddenly appearing, this time being monkeypox. Geez, we've only had a few weeks of flu propaganda after 2 solid years of coronavirus BS, and now monkeypox wants its share of the headlines!

But judging by the many memes that are circulating on social media already in just a few days, and comments on news and government posts on the topic, no-one is buying into the BS.

I did post about smallpox/monkeypox in 2021 when there were more than a few "coincidences" that ocurred around that time, or in recent times on this topic, including:

1. In an interview in November 2021, Bill Gates warns of a smallpox terror attack, and recommends governments put billions of dollars into funding prevention (Independent, 2021)
2. 1 week after Bill mentioned smallpox in an interview, there were news reports of 15 vials of smallpox found in a freezer in a pharmaceutical company (Merck) freezer and the FBI and CDC were called to investigate (Yahoo News, 2021)
3. Or a group of Canadian scientists in 2017 who RECREATED a horse pox virus, similar to smallpox, which was previously extinct (Centre for Infectious Disease Research and Policy, 2017). Pretty much for laughs... They said "This shouldn't surprise anyone. This is just molecular biology, and we've had the ability to do this for ages"
4. The CDC announced a monkeypox infection found in the US in November 2021
5. US Government buys 1.7 million doses of smallpox vax in 2021. And the Canadian military bought $2.3 million of smallpox doses, and Public Health Canada another $12.8 million
6. In 2015-2017, SIGA Technologies trialled their new TPOXX smallpox vaccine in Africa and USA
7. The FDA approved the new TPOXX vax for smallpox in July 2018! (FDA, 2018)
8. The FDA approved a new and fast-tracked medication for smallpox in July 2021! (FDA, 2021).

Why all this fuss, research and many millions or more in funding, all for an infection which was allegedly announced as eradicated in 1970 by the WHO?! Are they expecting this infection, or a variation of it, to be coming back again, or a new pandemic?

As per the current pandemic, something truly stinks in these new developments in the last few days of moneypox, erm, sorry that was a typo...

Be sceptical, aware, and informed. Be healthy!

How monkeypox started - another coincidence?

7/6/2022

On October 19th 2019, just a few weeks before the coronavirus outbreak started at the end of 2019, the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, along with the World Economic Forum (WEF) and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, organized “Event 201,” a “high-level pandemic exercise” to simulate a global pandemic of a coronavirus infection (Centre for Health Security, 2019).

A coincidence? I highly doubt it.

In March 2021, the Nuclear Threat Initiative (NTI), in conjunction with the Munich Security Conference, held a pandemic simulation involving of a deadly, global pandemic involving an unusual strain of monkeypox virus that first emerged in the fictional nation of Brinia and spread globally over 18 months (NTI, 2021).

The NTI's monkeypox simulation was caused by a terrorist attack using a genetically-modified pathogen engineered in a laboratory with inadequate biosafety and biosecurity provisions and weak oversight. By the end of the exercise, the fictional pandemic resulted in more than three billion cases and 270 million fatalities worldwide. Participants to this simulation included representatives from pharmaceutical companies, the WHO, and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation...

Another coincidence?

What are the odds of the same people being involved in 2 pandemic simulations shortly before they eventuate?

How about this then - the initial deliberate terrorist attack in the monkeypox simulation occurred on May 15th, 2022. The first or index case, as confirmed by the WHO was found in the UK on 5th May 2022 (WHO, 2022).

The timing of this new infection is also interesting, right at the time that the WHO is currently in the middle of their World Health Assembly conference to discuss a Global Pandemic Treaty with all "member states" (Forbes, 2022), meaning that in the event of a new pandemic, the WHO will direct and control all the actions for all countries in a non-democratic, dictatorial manner, and you will likely have no say or choice in anything. More on this in a new article soon.

Do you believe in coincidences?

Be suspicious. Be informed. Be healthy.

A common but misunderstood gut issue: gas, wind, or farts!

7/6/2022

0 Comments

 
Picture
One of the most common health issues that I find in most clients is having a bloated tummy and "gas" or flatulence, farts, or wind!
​
This can be source of endless entertainment, mainly for children and boys/men!

But it's NOT normal to look like you're 3-months pregnant after you have a meal!

What may appear to be a problem with the lower digestive system that is causing the gas and bloating is not the real problem - it's more what is going wrong with the UPPER digestive system...

Gas and bloating, which can also be accompanied by constipation, diarrhoea, pain and discomfort, is really caused from:

1. The foods you eat
2. How well, or more accurately, how badly your stomach is functioning to digest your meals.
If your stomach isn't working well, your meals are not going to be digested properly or fully, which then causes the following symptoms or issues:
1. Reduced absorption of nutrients, as you can't absorb food that has not been broken down, leading to nutrient deficiencies
2. FERMENTATION of the undigested food in the large intestine, as there's trillions of bacteria there
3. Fermentation of undigested foods produces GAS
4. Increased gas production from fermentation causes bloating
5. Bloating from fermentation causes pain, discomfort, and in some people, constipation or diarrhoea
6. Fermentation also produces ALCOHOL (!) in the large intestine, similar to fermentation in the making of wine, beer and spirits! The alcohol can be reabsorbed into the body to cause feelings of drunkeness including waking with a mild hangover, and some people produce so much alcohol in their gut that it can affect blood alcohol readings. Surprisingly, there is a real diagnosis for this, called "Auto Brewery Syndrome"!

My focus in my clinical practice is always to find all the root causes of health conditions and symptoms in each person, and to treat and fix all those root causes for long-term resolution and prevention. That's not the medical model, which is just about hiding the symptoms with medications, but medications never fix the root causes!

While lower tummy symptoms of gas and bloating etc are not caused by lower tummy issues, but more from your foods and stomach function, the stomach itself isn't the root cause either as there are many possible causes of poor stomach function. The true root causes of poor stomach function are many and need to be investigated, identified and treated. Simply taking probiotics will NOT prevent or fix this!

There's too many causes of poor stomach function that leads to lower tummy symptoms of gas and bloating and other issues, and therefore many possible recommendations or treatments. But if you, or someone in your family, delights in amusing people with excessive or toxic farts, or is embarrassed by them or the bloating, then they need to get some holistic treatments for long-term resolution.

Be healthy.

The importance of organic foods and to reduce cancer risks

7/6/2022

A recent investigation by the Environmental Working Group (EWG) on the US Department of Agriculture data found that nearly 60% of kale samples tested were contaminated with a likely carcinogenic (cancer-causing) pesticide (EWG, 2022).

The toxic pesticide, known as DCPA or Dacthal, was classified by the US Environmental Protection Agency as a possible carcinogen in 1995, but only recalled by its manufacturer 10 years later in 2005 (but only on some crops), banned in the European Union in 2009, is STILL being used in the US on crops such as kale, broccoli, sweet potatoes, eggplant and turnips. Other leafy greens in the US were also found to be contaminated with the same chemical. And this was not the only chemical used on these plant crops.

Kale production has increased by 56% in recent years due to more interest in their nutritional value.

Dacthal is also being used in Australia for brassica vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, kale, cabbage, spinach etc), legumes, alliums (onions, garlic, etc), potatoes, carrots and many other crop types (NuFarm, 2022).

This information stresses the importance of knowing what you are eating, and what your foods are exposed to, such as pesticides, herbicides, and other chemicals. Just because someone is natural, green, or plant-based, doesn't mean it's going to be good for you. This is why certified organic foods or home grown vegetables can be healthier and safer for you to eat.

Be healthy.

Calories are unscientific, ridiculous, and should not be used (Part 2)

19/4/2022

This is Part 2 of my "Calories are unscientific, ridiculous, and should never be used" article! (See my post of yesterday for Part 1).

One of many issues with nutrition science is the concept of a calorie, and using calories as a ridiculous measurement of how healthy a food is, or the effects of the foods on the body. The model of using calories is often referred to the Calories In-Calories Out or CICO model. This is explained as the number of calories measured in your food intake vs the calories expended or used in exercise.

Here are many, many reasons why the CICO model is complete BS, including all the following:
​
  1. Calories of metabolic processes are different in each person, and can't be measured anyway - only the alleged food intake can be measured and the exercise done - what about all the energy consumed or produced by other metabolic processes, re-use of nutrients, re-absorption of nutrients, and waste products (from breath, sweat, urination and poo)?
  2. How is a "calorie" used in the body?! What are the biochemical reactions which use calories?! (Answer: none)
  3. The CICO model does not take into account each person's own metabolic rate, typically driven by their thyroid gland. Someone with a low functioning thyroid will have a tendency to have low energy, slow metabolism and easy weight gain, but difficulty losing weight, even on a healthy diet
  4. The CICO model assumes that physiological mechanisms or environmental factors or other biochemical hormones have no impact on energy balance - that it is all based on how foods are "BURNED"
  5. CICO does not distinguish between "good" calories and "bad" calories. We all know an apple is better and healthier than a choc-chip cookie... but a cookie may have the same or less calories?!
  6. In the CICO model, they forget to include how many calories are produced or needed to digest that food. For example, a lollipop might take 10% of its calories to be used by the body, but a steak can use 30% of its alleged calories to be digested
  7. The CICO model suggests that 500 calories from brownies is just as fattening as 500 calories of kale! It's just ridiculous!
  8. A low calorie food does not imply that it is healthy for you, and a high calorie food also does not imply that the food is unhealthy
  9. Similar to good vs bad calories, the CICO model does not look at nutrient density of the foods, or their macronutrient breakdown into protein vs carbs vs fats or vitamins and minerals, or how the nutrients in the food affect your body in good or bad ways
  10. CICO assumes everyone is the same, or that the energy output from a calorie in one person is the same as for another, which is not possible
  11. With the CICO model, artificial sweeteners with zero calories (but are known to cause metabolic dysfunction, diabetes, weight gain and cancer) are allegedly better for you than high calorie healthy fats or an avocado for example?!
  12. CICO assumes that the body "oxidises calories" in the same way and amount as in a bomb calorimeter (and at sea level etc, in the definition of a calorie)
  13. CICO assumes that EVERYTHING you eat is going to be digested and absorbed, with NO waste! CICO does not take into account the "energy" or heat of your poo for example!
  14. CICO doesn't take into account the adaptive metabolic processes in each person - someone MAY lose weight in the short term on a low calorie diet, but then due to hormones, thyroid changes, and other factors, weight loss can stall or plateau and then increase again due to the "starvation" effect and the adaptive slowing of metabolic processes to conserve energy for longer-term survival
  15. Maintaining a healthy weight and good health is more about WHAT someone eats, not how much (or little) they eat based on calories
  16. Weight gain is about over-storage of excess foods (or types of foods) not on over-eating of those foods or calories. One person eating the same foods as another will store more of those foods, while someone else will be using the foods for metabolism
  17. Muscles needs more NUTRIENTS for the muscle health and function, and hence more nutrients from foods are used instead of being stored as body fat
  18. A typical Keto/ketogenic diet has more calories than a low-fat diet, yet people on a keto diet will lose more weight (as body fat), more consistently, and for longer than someone on a low fat (ie, high calorie) diet
  19. Since the 1960s we have been told that we need to be more aware of the calories we eat and to reduce high calorie foods - which means cutting fats as they have the most calories per gram. Look where that got us - with the highest rates of obesity, diabetes, heart disease, cancers, and other chronic inflammatory conditions ever in history
  20. Proteins suppress appetite to make you eat less, but carbs do the opposite, yet they have the same calorific value
  21. Healthy fats suppress appetite for longer than proteins, yet they have the highest number of calories
  22. Low carb diets (generally higher calories from more fats) lead to more weight loss than low fat diets (lower calories) in many published studies
  23. Carbohydrates and proteins have the same calorie value at 4 calories per gram. But replacing carbs with the same amount of protein, as shown in many studies, will result in weight loss from reduced fat stores, and sparing or improving muscle mass. Hence again, weight loss has NOTHING  to do with calories of the foods you eat
  24. The CICO model blames the individual for eating too much or not exercising enough, when there are MANY factors and hormones which are causing their weight gain, or preventing the usage of the fat stores for energy.

If anyone recommends that you should count your calories, or choose your food based on calories, especially for weight loss, then run away!

As you can see from above, there are a LOT of reasons why calories are irrelevant, useless, unscientific, and not representative of how foods and nutrients get used in your body!

Calories are outdated, unscientific and should not be used

Choosing foods based on calories as being a measurement of how healthy they are is unscientific and ridiculous! Calories should never be used as a measurement of food quality or of their health to your body.

Let's review what a calorie really is... A calorie (or more correctly, a kilocalorie) is defined as the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of one kilogram of water by one degree Celsius (specifically from 14.5C to 15.5C) at sea level! A kilocalorie (which we usually refer to as "one Calorie" with a capital C) really is 1000 calories. Kilojoules are the metric measurement of energy from foods, so they are also and irrelevant and ridiculous measurement of the health or energy of foods.

The measurement of the calorie content of a food is done in a device called a "bomb calorimeter", a closed container containing oxygen, and the food is physically BURNED in this device, to measure its energy output as heat. This is supposed to be a representation of how our bodies use nutrients, which it clearly isn't! Our bodies are NOT an enclosed device, and our bodies do not BURN food to create heat in the same way! We have many thousands or even millions of processes and chemical reactions which occur in our bodies to convert our food into far more than just heat, but also into many other products which change in more chemical reactions to finally allow us to live and function (but not burn up!). It is actually impossible to measure the amount of energy a food really gives us in our bodies, so the concept of calories has been used. But calories have been taken too far as a measurement of food quality, when it never should be.

My other issue about using calories for foods is the belief that low calorie foods are better for you, when they are not! This concept has been used for decades by weight loss companies, dietitians, doctors, food companies, and the general public, but again it's wrong!

Consider the following comparison of the calorie content of the major macronutrients:

Carbohydrates (vegetables, fruit, grains etc) - 4 kilocalories per gram
Protein (meats and plant-based protein) - 4 kilocalories per gram
Fats (animal and plant based oils and fats) - 9 calories per gram
Alcohol (ok, not a macronutrient, but it is a good comparison) - 7 kilocalories per gram.

Then see the attached graphs for comparing the blood sugar levels of each of these macronutrients - ie., how foods containing these affect your body...

Carbohydrates get converted quickly into glucose (ie, sugar)  and raise your blood sugar levels quickly. Your body responds to the high blood sugar by secreting insulin to force cells to take up more glucose and insulin also forces the fat cells to take in the glucose that is converted to fat. Hence a high carb diet leads to fat storage and weight gain. Carbohydrates do not give a long-lasting energy.

Some proteins get more slowly converted into glucose, but generally most proteins will be broken down into their amino acid building blocks, to be rearranged into other proteins the body can use. Proteins are more filling, and give a longer-lasting energy to delay hunger for longer.

Here's an important question for you - carbs and proteins have the same calorie content, but which one has a better effect on your body, with less blood sugar spike, less insulin required, but a much longer lasting energy?!

Healthy fats generally don't raise blood sugar! However they do give a long lasting energy, are much more filling than carbs and proteins, and healthy fats don't cause the same inflammatory and oxidative damage that carbs do.

Ignore calories, ignore calorie measurements of foods as a marker of their health benefits, and ignore counting calories for weight loss or even for general health!

Focus instead on 1) the NUTRIENT content of foods, especially of whole, real, fresh, seasonal foods, and 2) avoiding processed, refined, packaged, and artificial foods which cause INFLAMMATION in your body, which is a major cause of our chronic disease epidemics today. Inflammation is the real cause of obesity, not calories! Inflammation comes from many other sources to cause weight gain, such as from hormone imbalances, stress, lifestyle factors, dysbiosis, exposure to toxins and chemicals, infections, and many more sources - most of which are unrelated to your food intake an unrelated to calories!

When all the root causes of one's weight gain are investigated and treated, you will lose weight easily and consistently, without hunger and cravings, and you will be able to reach and maintain your healthy goal weight long into the future! This is what I can help you with!

In the next article I will expand more on why calories are useless and unscientific, and should never be used as a measurement of the health of a food or for weight loss.

Be informed. Be healthy.
