Lets be Activists at Home. Tell Family Members and Friends – Maybe Neighbors? We can become Conscientious Objectors this Way without Marching down City Streets. Being Health Advocates Together. And maybe Influencers when we go Shopping? That’s something I really Enjoy in a Relaxed and Informative way. Sometimes with a Note of Cheer.

Are Gyms and Fitness "Experts" Pressuring You To Have Energy Drinks and Bars?

It's amazing how you pay for your Gym Membership, the Fuel to get there and back, and they just have to Impose their SNACKS on you as well......those "HEALTHY" Drinks AND Bars you Have to Have, and if you don't Indulge, you "Wont get the Results you're Looking for" isn't it? And if you're Hungry, they're Ready to Sell you More! Well, I'm here to Undo "all that Necessity for You" Really Janet? YES!

So if you'd like to stay with me, we'll go into the reasons Why those "Energy Drinks and Bars" are NOT such a Good Idea. OK? And then you can Save yourself a Lot of Money, and maybe those Gym Membership Fees as well, when you find out just how Outrageous those Claims are:)

Had to Post it straight away without delay:)

An Article I Spotted On British Vogue!

I’ll never forget hearing Dr Chris van Tulleken – the renowned physician and author of Ultra-Processed People: Why Do We All Eat Stuff That Isn’t Food… And Why Can’t We Stop? – compare a protein bar to meth. Or, rather, he suggested that eating one was akin to the “first hit” of meth. The comparison forms part of his wider campaign to wake both the public and the government up to the dangers of ultra-processed foods, which he describes as “industrially produced edible substances”, products he argues have no place on British shelves.

The lack of regulation and meaningful quality control now endemic in the wellness industry raises an uncomfortable question too: could similar parallels be drawn to magnesium, ashwagandha, omega-3 and countless other supplements we are enthusiastically mainlining in the name of health?…

Published on Leave a comment on See the KETO Movement for What it Really Is – What’s Coming is Mind Boggling!

Please Folk, for your Health's Sake, your Pocket and Your Family, find out what the Keto Trend is really about, where it is going and see it for what it really is. In short, this Diet is very Restrictive and very Unbalanced. For sometime I've been Mystified as to "WHY" every so often I find out that another Professional Health Advocate approves of and Promotes this KETO Diet, and some of them don't leave it alone?
It was "Baffling" at times and lingered in my thoughts.

As some of you know, I've been into genuine part-time Independent Natural Health Research 30+ Years and am a pretty Perceptive person - my Instincts serve me well. For sometime, I've felt an Unease about it - that there's something more than a Trend involved. It Is "Trendy" and it's Not going to go away any time soon - and it does a lot of damage to many people's Health. So why are these Brilliant Advocates (some of them) involved in it? Like Dr Eric Berg, whose Teaching Videos, I've enjoyed many times.…

Published on Leave a comment on Settling The Matter About Peanut Paste: Is It Nutritious Or Anti-Nutritious? Depends What You Buy OR Make!

By Janet Vargas - Independent Natural Health Researcher 30+ Yrs
With Assistance of AI

I'd like to share with you some INFO I found today with an AI APP named Chat GPT I have commenced working with for part of my Research. I have to watch it with some things, but it is Good to Very Good with most things I've searched so far - especially for Gardening.

I asked CHAT the Questions in Red and what I'm Adding for You is in Italics - OK?

Because Peanut Paste is all the rage in recent months and people are adding it to all kinds of Recipes from Savoury to Baking to Sweet, I think I should advise people against the Commercial Jars of it (that have Nasties) and at-least direct them to the Natural one without Nasties from Aldi, and from Health Stores - Freshly Made.

If you're using Peanut Paste regularly, compare the ingredient lists. Some products are simply 100% peanuts, while others contain Added sugar, oils, salt, emulsifiers, or other ingredients. Choose the version that best matches your Nutritional Goals.

Almost always, when Oils are added to Ingredients in Commercial Foods/Products, they are the Nasty ones like Canola, Sunflower Oil, Vegetable Oil (most times is SOY Oil) Safflower, Corn or Grapeseed Oil.…

Published on Leave a comment on A Personal Word From Janet Re Politics and Why I Am Writing Some Articles Of This Nature

By Janet Vargas - Defending Our Country and Our People
a Health, Nature and People's Advocate

Like many of you, I am absolutely Fed-Up with Labor and Coalition Governments, and So Desire for Us to Take Ownership of Our Country Again. I can honestly say I've NEVER been a Party Voter and have Always Voted for Independents. For quite some time now (several months) I have been watching a significant number of YouTube Videos on Pauline Hanson and One Nation because they REALLY Stand Against the Destructive Albanese Government that has Continually Grieved Our People SO MUCH.

I am Now Backing PAULINE and BARNABY 100% and have decided to Support them on OURS AUSTRALIA because they Really Ring "TRUE BLUE" with me, and they Actually Do GIVE US A VOICE in those Parliament Sessions and are Deserving of All My Votes (And Yours) Permanently. Our Government is so full of Selfish Pen-Pushing, Empty-Words, Bureaucrats after "Money, Money" that increasingly seems to be their One Ambition for being there. It disgusts me (as it does so many of us)

I have dedicated Many Hours (I don't really have with several Websites to run) watching SKY NEWS and Similar that has been instrumental in this Commitment I've made.…

Published on Leave a comment on Overlooked and Hidden Risks in Maltodextrin and Dextrose Added to Many Food Products Including Some So-Called Healthy Products

By Janet Vargas - Independent Natural Health Researcher 30+ Yrs

Hi Friends, the Dextrose added to Products first came to my attention about 25 Yrs ago when a significant amount of it was added to some Fruit and Veggie Powders
I bought from a "Health Company" in Queensland. They said it was added to keep the Powders "Free Flowing" but I noticed they went hard in a short time anyway.
I had Beetroot Powder and Broccoli Powder among them. The Maltodextrin added to a lot of Products came to my attention about 8-12 Months ago when I heard an excellent Video by Eric Berg on YouTube. Most of his Videos are Good. Understandably, I have real reservations about Keto Diets though which he has to do with as well sometimes.

I will call on Google AI Overviews and Chat GPT assistance for this Article.
I know what I am looking for. There will be several Sections of Helpful Advice as well.

I will give you a little helpful Tip here for when you are reading some particular Health Related Articles on this Website, and it goes like this: If you consider adopting Real Foods in place of Processed and Ultra Processed Foods and Homemade Meals Mostly instead of Takeaways and Premade Meals, you don't have so much Checking of Labels to do, hey?…

Published on Leave a comment on 10 Things You Can Do Every Day To Support Your Brain Health and Things To Watch Out For

by Sara Moniuszko, USA TODAY

Want to protect your brain health as you age? Experts say there are things
you can do that make a difference.

According to the Alzheimer's Association's annual report released earlier this month, many health factors can influence brain function later in life. For example, daily behaviors that benefit physical health − like regular movement, good sleep and a nutritious diet − also play a central role in delaying cognitive decline.

While the organization notes it's "never too early or too late to start" incorporating these habits, it's particularly relevant during Midlife, when the long-term implications of a "cognitive reserve" are more apparent.

"Cognitive reserve works like a mental savings account: The more one adds to the account throughout life, including in their late 30s through their early 60s, the more they can withdraw later if the brain is affected by cognitive-related diseases," the report adds.

To help maintain a healthy brain, incorporate some or all of these habits into your life, the organization suggests:

  1. Challenge your brain. Keep mentally active through new or challenging activities, the organization suggests. Examples include learning a new skill or language, reading difficult material or learning to play a challenging strategy game.

By Janet Vargas - A People's Advocate On Ours Australia

Hi Fellow Aussies, So Much Is Being Kept Behind Our Backs That Is Actually Happening Under Our Noses, It Isn't Funny..........It's Perturbing, It's Disturbing, It's Pathetic, It's Alarming..........And It's Very Sad, To Say The Least, That We Have An Incompetent Government Like This In For A 2nd Term..........When In Albanese 's 1st Campaign, He Claimed That He Would Never Let Us Down Like Other PMs Have, That He Would Be Different To Anyone Else.

Granted, He IS Different To Everyone Else - Not For Good But Worse! And He HAS Let Us Down, More Than Any PM We Have Ever Had. Everything He Does Has Destroyed Our Once Peaceful, Prosperous, Respected and Freedom Envied Country Worldwide. Now He and His Buddies Have Turned Australia Into One Of The Most Frustrating and Stressful Countries On This Earth.

They Have Endangered Our People By Importing Thousands Of Islamists Just To Gain More Votes To Keep Them In Government; They Have Brought In Woke Culture Almost No-One Is Comfortable With, Confusing Heaps Of Kids In Public Schools; They Have Threatened Our Values, Our Standards and Free Speech; They Have MESSED With The Books and Wrecked Our Economy, Bringing In Inflation and Crippling Household Expenses, making our Food Budgets tight; Our Energy (Electricity) Is The Highest In The World and Their "Net Zero Plan" Based On LIES Is Actually Heaps More Expensive Further Along The Way, Plus Very Destructive To Our Eco System That Was Created To PROTECT US - You Can Hardly Call It "Green Energy" They Have Been Promoting and Pushing!…
