Published on Leave a comment on More About Kiwi Fruit: So Good For You – New Variety Ruby-Red Berry Delicious!

By Janet Vargas Independent Natural Health Researcher 30+ Yrs

Hi Folks, I posted an Article about Kiwis in Mid-March, they are So Good for Us. I just found out they are Good for Our Eyes, in addition to their other Benefits. And when you look at this according to Food Signatures (Key Benefits found in certain foods, referred to as the Doctrine of Signatures by the Greeks many years ago when they resemble a specific part of our Body) a Carrot when sliced resembles the Iris in our Eyes AND so does a Kiwi when sliced, hey? So from that perspective, it is not too surprising to hear a Natural Health Scientist mention Kiwi's Benefit for Our Eyes in a YouTube Video recently, never-the-less pleasantly surprising.

Today, I had a wonderful experience when shopping in one of the Aldi Stores - a discovery that there is a Ruby-Red Kiwi Fruit available from a company called Zepri in New Zealand in addition to Sungold Kiwis. They are selling here in Australia and Internationally now.

Zespri Ruby-Red Kiwifruit
Berry Delicious!

It's Interesting to note that each one of these Kiwi Fruits have different Nutrient Profiles and Benefits (Variation-Wise) in addition to their Colours.…

By Janet Vargas - Independent Natural Health Researcher 30+ Yrs

Hi Friends, I have a few Questions to ask you: Did you know the Google has Censored most of the Good Information about Sunshine? Did you know that Big Pharma makes Multi Billions of Dollars from Those Toxic Sunscreen? (most of them are) Did you know that Big Pharma has the Strongest Influence over News Media? They actually Run the Dodgy Big Food Industries. I could say More, just please don't take ALL their Medical Advice so Seriously - especially when it comes to Good Healthy Sunshine.

Our Immune System and Our Brain NEEDS Sunshine

They Lied About Sunlight, The Fastest Way To Dementia! By Barbara O'Neil

What If Everything We Were Told About Sunscreen Was a Lie?

Jenna Macarthy   

My husband and I raised our daughters in Santa Barbara, California, where the weather was relentlessly idyllic and outdoor activities were a year-round event. On any given day, we’d be at the beach, by the pool, out on a lake, or hiking the nearest mountain. The pre-activity ritual was an absolute non-negotiable: The girls would stand spread-eagle wearing as little clothing as possible, arms in a victory salute and eyes scrunched tightly shut, while I sprayed every inch of their bodies with the toxic chemicals I was promised would protect them from deadly skin cancer.…

By Janet Vargas - Independent Natural Health Researcher 30+ Yrs

One of the Best Ways we can Strengthen Our Immune System is not being frightened by the "Medical Sickness Industry" to help ourselves to some Good Healthy Sunshine Each Day. When Covid struck the USA, Florida was the only State that wasn't affected much because most of them kept on Enjoying the Sunshine. It's really Big Pharma who doesn't want you to have Sunshine because it actually Cuts back the MEDS they Sell, so they made up those LIES about the SUN.

A Report came up in my Research some years ago saying "There's only two ways you can get Skin Cancer. One is if you have those Toxic Sunscreens Baked into your Skin and the other is if you Never get any Sunshine.

Even though the Climate is Warmer, we Need some measure of Sunlight Daily or at-least 3-4 Times a Week. Besides, when the Sun shines on our Skin (without Sunscreen on) we absorb the Best type of "Vitamin D" that is actually a type of Hormone we should keep Replenishing on a Constant Basis.

It is a very good idea to have Vitamin D Foods in addition to wise Exposure of Sunshine.…

Published on Leave a comment on 2 Herbs That Benefit Eyesight, Immune System and Digestive Health: Chives and Parsley!

Hi there, these are two Articles for this Post - one on Chives and one on Parsley in the Interest of Better Health. I trust that many of you will give Chives and Parsley a try and maybe inspired to Grow some Organically too.

The Garden Herb that Experts say Boosts Immune Health
and Protects your Vision

From Independent UK

Herbalists may Recommend them for Digestive Health,
Supporting the Immune System, and as a Mild Diuretic

Chives are a longstanding favorite in cream cheese, omelettes, scrambled eggs and spreads. But did you know the popular, slightly peppery-tasting herb comes with some major health benefits?

Just a tablespoon of the thin green vegetable – which some may mistake for the stronger-tasting, thicker green onion – helps to provide essential vitamins and minerals that strengthen eye health, and support a well-regulated gut and immune system.

Chives contain antibacterial and antiviral compounds, according to a handful of past studies published since the early 2000s.

“In modern herbalism, chives are used for their mild antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties. Herbalists may recommend them for digestive health, supporting the immune system, and as a mild diuretic,” botanist Dr.…

By Janet Vargas - Independent Natural Health Researcher 30+ Years

Be it known that in particular, KETO is a Later Form of the ATKIN’S DIET – he was an Extremist too – and the DASH DIET is a Later Version of the LOW-FAT DIET…. marginally healthier due to More Fruits and Veggies but Just as Damaging, due to Leaving Out Good Healthy Fats so Necessary for our Brain and Nerve Cells AND Heart. Not to mention Still Promoting those Cheap-Nasty Canola, Veggie Oils and Plasticised Margarine Spreads that in reality are So Destructive to Our Health.

The Unsuspected Cause of Cancer; Increase in Dementia; putting our Heart at Risk rather than Safety; the Prevalence of Hormonal Imbalance and Mood Disorders; the Escalation of Mental Health Disorders; the Sharp Increase in Auto-Immune Disorders and Diabetes; a Hidden Cause of Chronic Pain; Unexplained Chronic Headaches and Migraines; Keeping or even Stacking On the Weight it Claims to Save you from.

Published on Leave a comment on 117 Year Old Woman’s Diet Could Help Us Live Healthier With Better Gut Health (Microbiome)

By Rachel Woods – The Conversation

When María Branyas Morera died in 2024 at the age of 117, she left more than memories. She left science a gift: samples of her microbiome.

Researchers discovered her gut was as diverse as someone decades younger: rich in beneficial bacteria linked to resilience and longevity. Her daily yoghurt habit and Mediterranean diet may have helped.

While we can't all inherit "lucky genes", nurturing our microbiome may be one way to support lifelong health.

n a recent paper in Cell Reports Medicine, researchers presented what may be the most detailed scientific investigation of a supercentenarian (a person aged 110 or older). Before her death, Branyas agreed to participate in research aimed at uncovering how she lived such a long and healthy life.

When scientists compared her samples with those of people who had not reached such exceptional ages, the genetic results were unsurprising: Branyas carried protective variants that guard against common diseases.

But they also looked at something over which we have more control – the gut microbiome.

This microbiome is the vast community of bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms that live in the intestines.…

Published on Leave a comment on Why Chronic Inflammation Can Be Linked To Your Gut – And What To Do About It!

By Laurel Ives – The Telegraph

Our gut microbiome, the bustling community of trillions of microbes living deep within our intestines, does more than just help with digest food, it contributes to so many aspects of our health. In recent years, gut health and inflammation have become such popular buzzwords, yet many still don’t realise just how intricately they are linked:

Why is gut health important?
Inflammation and gut health
Spotting inflammation
Improving your diet for better gut health
Other factors that affect gut health

Our Microbiome Contributes To So Many Aspects Of Our Health

Why is gut health so important?

The gut microbiome is so important, in fact its often called “the second brain.”

Scientists are now realising that when the gut microbiome is out of balance – when the bad bacteria have begun to dominate and kill off the good – it can set off a toxic chain reaction throughout the body. This is chronic inflammation and can be a root cause of many of our most serious illnesses, from cancer to heart disease and diabetes.

So it makes sense that good gut health can translate into improved overall health.…

Published on Leave a comment on Springtime’s Here – Let Kids Play – Outdoors Is Actually Healthier!

ONE OF THE VERY BEST THINGS YOU CAN DO FOR YOUR CHILDREN - Especially an Only Child - IS LET THEM HAVE TIME OUTDOORS. LET THEM EXPLORE. NATURE IS GOOD FOR THEM - NOT SO MUCH TECH. TOO MUCH TECH IS BAD FOR THEM. IT'S ACTUALLY COUNTER-PRODUCTIVE. ESPECIALLY TO THEIR IMAGINATIONS. SO CONSIDER INTRODUCING THEM TO SIMPLE DISCOVERIES OUTDOORS HEY?

Kids NEED To Explore - Don't Limit Their Imagination

Children’s Indoor Lifestyle Stunts Their Imagination
Sydney Morning Herald

The way we have allowed our housing market to develop means that most of our new our homes are extraordinarily close together (“Ban kids from social, but what will they do outside?”, September 14). They are designed to look inwards; there is no scope for seeing wider horizons. And with this comes a tendency for a narrowness of imagination and vision. This means that Daisy Turnbull’s point is well made. Where are the backyards to play in? Where are the creeks to dam? Where are the places to cycle to? It would be nice to think we can turn this around, but for many this will not be possible.
