Published on Leave a comment on Whatever Made You Think Albanese Would Change His Ways When You Voted Him In Yet Again? Once a Traitor, Always a Traitor!

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

PRIOR THE LAST ELECTION, I KNEW INSTICTIVELY FOR MONTHS ALBANESE HAD A DEFINITE "Trick Up His Sleeve" - SOMETHING THAT WOULD BE HARD TO RESIST, Timed for Just Before The Election, and Sure Enough HE DID IT. HE OFFERED YOU A WAGE-RISE, THEN MADE THINGS 3 TIMES HARDER FOR YOU. AS THE ADAGE SAYS "A Zebra Doesn't Change It's Stripes" AND IT'S LUNACY TO THINK HE WOULD NOT GET US DEEPER IN TROUBLE (All That We Have Endured Since The Election) TALK ABOUT POLITICIAN'S LIES and BROKEN PROMISES, HE LEAVES ALL THE OTHERS FOR MILES.

WE DON'T NEED GRIFTERS IN GOVERNMENT!
This Albanese and Wong, Chalmers and Bowen Crew have been the Most Destructive Ever
in Our History and Turned this Country Up-Side-Down.

THE BEST THING WE CAN DO NOW IS TAKE OUR PARTY BLINDFOLDS OFF and STOP LOOKING TO MAJOR PARTIES, ONE HAS GONE UNDER NOW and my word, we certainly hope Labour Comes Next, Soon After. PAULINE HANSON HAS TOLD US THERE'S TOO MANY BEUROCRATS IN POWER and THAT NEEDS TO CHANGE.

SHE (and her Team) ARE THE ONE PARTY THAT CAN BE COUNTED ON TO LET US KNOW WHAT REALLY GOES ON IN THAT PLACE and HAVE A GENUINE DESIRE TO CHANGE THINGS and THEY NEED US TO GIVE THEM THAT POWER.…

Invasive plants grown in many Australian homes are a threat to the country's environment and biodiversity. Dr Carol Booth from the Invasive Species Council says escaped garden plants threaten Australia's unique fauna and flora.

"Australia has a Massive Weed Problem, and it's been estimated
that three-quarters come from Escaped Garden Plants"

As Dr Booth explains, Escaped Garden Plants not only invade bushlands and riparian areas along Creeks and Rivers, but also outcompete Local Plants and destroy native wildlife habitat.

Gazanias are one of the Most Invasive Plants causing Havoc
to Agricultural Land and Native Vegetation in Australia.

YES! Gazanias Surprisingly The Worst Of Invasive Weeds In Australia -
Extremely Hard To Remove and The Farmers Nightmare!

I wish people would leave their Beloved Plants Overseas when they Come Here, because those Plants often Behave Differently Here than they do in their Countries. My Instincts have told me this strongly for some time, and part of this Article proves it True. Read on......

So how can you plant a sustainable, environmentally friendly garden
that won't cause you future headaches?

This is what horticulture experts recommend.

How to know what to plant

A major hurdle to limiting the spread of invasive plants in Australia is the lack of national regulation in the nursery sector, Dr Booth says.…

Published on Leave a comment on Feijoas: The Cute Little Fruit That Tastes Really Good and Benefits Your Health!

Feijoa that little green fruit that grows on a shrub type tree, they're absolutely gorgeous! Closely related to Guavas, they are often referred to as the Pineapple Guava. These small green fruits are reminiscent of kiwis. They are egg-shaped, and the inner flesh can be scooped out and eaten along with the pulp and seeds. The texture is similar to a pear while the flavor is slightly citrusy and sweet.

Wow, what a Tasty Little Fruit!

Feijoas are best enjoyed when soft and ripe. They grow mostly in South America, Brazil, Australia and New Zealand and grow on a species of the Myrtle tree. The flowers are exceptionally pretty and the fruit is about the size of an egg – some bigger, some smaller, depending on the variety. The flesh has a sweet aromatic, juicy flavor, which tastes like a combination of pineapple, apple and mint. They have a clear gelatinous pulp just like guavas, with a pleasant grainy texture that makes for a taste sensation.

Whether you are eating the fruit for its health benefits or its exotic taste, you will benefit from its impressive nutrient content. There is a high level of vitamin C as well as a diverse selection of B vitamins and trace amounts of vitamin E, K and A.…

Published on Leave a comment on Experts Warn Against Combining Certain Natural Supplements – We Need To Practice Discretion

By Mie Hermansen – MSN

You try to take care of yourself. You choose products that sound gentle, plant-based and familiar, trusting that they will support your body rather than stress it.

For many people, supplements feel like a safe shortcut to better sleep, calmer moods or more balance in everyday life.

But wellness choices are rarely as simple as they look. Some habits that seem harmless on the surface can quietly create problems, especially when different products are combined without much thought.

What matters is not just what you take, but how those choices interact once they are inside your system.

When Natural Isn’t Neutral

Health researchers and clinicians point out that supplements are not regulated like prescription drugs.

Their strength can differ from brand to brand, and their interactions are not always obvious to consumers.

When multiple products influence the brain, hormones or liver at the same time, their effects can overlap.

This may lead to excessive tiredness, slower reaction times or mental fog, even in people who otherwise feel healthy.

Because these changes often build gradually, many people never connect them to their supplement routine.

The Combination Experts Flag

Among commonly used products, the pairing of Melatonin and St.…

Published on Leave a comment on New study: Full-Fat Cheese Linked To A Lower Risk Of Dementia and Truth About Non-Fat Mania

By Ida-Marie Palm Varaek from Welltica

A large study shows an association between the consumption of full-fat cheese and the risk of dementia in certain groups.

For many years, low-fat foods have been promoted as the safer choice for health.

In particular, low-fat dairy products have been recommended to reduce the risk of lifestyle-related diseases.

At the same time, interest is growing in how diet affects the brain and the risk of dementia.

Dietary Guidelines

According to international and Nordic dietary guidelines, the intake of saturated fat should be limited.

These recommendations are based on large population studies aimed at reducing the risk of, among other things, cardiovascular diseases.

Dietary research, however, is often complex. People do not eat individual foods in isolation, and diet is closely linked to education, income, and lifestyle.

A Long-Term Study

A Swedish study, published in the journal Neurology, contributes new data to the debate.

In the study, researchers followed 27,670 adults over 25 years. During this period, 3,208 participants developed dementia.

The researchers accounted for several uncertainties, including by excluding individuals who already had dementia at the start of the study and by analyzing the results without those who became ill early on.…

"Good for Cancer" Are You Kidding Me? We Should All Know the True Facts
About This Dodgy and Dangerous Food Additive!

As the Adage says "Don't believe Everything You Hear" we should Heed that Caution Well, when it comes to reading about Emulsifiers especially. The Food Industry's biggest Ploys for making our Groceries Toxic is they used "Something Natural"...... but just like Big Pharma, it's what they do with that which makes it Toxic. Then they argue that they've "Only just used a little" as if it's not worth worrying about.

But Often, Our Body Tells A Different Story.
Some Area of Our Health plays up with Uncomfortable or Distressing Symptoms.

Such has been the case for many people who have had regular Exposure to this so-called "Safe Emulsifier" another Hidden Culprit in the Food Chain.…

Published on Leave a comment on Principles and Secrets to Nutritious Dieting for Weightloss – Avoid Keto and Other Unbalanced Diets – Please Read!

By Janet Vargas - Independent Natural Health Researcher 30+ Yrs

All we seem to hear about these days is "Keto, Keto, Keto" when it comes to Dieting. Right? Honestly, they have taken Western Countries by storm. Every time you walk into a Bookstore you see a number of Keto Fad Books there.......there's heaps of them on the Internet.........YouTube is inundated with Keto Videos and sad to say, there's even a number of Health Advocates Promoting that Craze. You would think it would have died out by now. Hey? But No, they Continue the Madness of that Alarming Unbalanced Diet which is comprised of EXCESS PROTEIN and a Sickening Amount of FAT.

They even make what you call "FAT BOMBS" to have Everyday! Those Recipes consist of about 90% Fat - mostly Saturates in the form of an Energy Ball.
It's Amazing How Much PROTEIN and FAT that Diet Promotes OVER Healthy Fruits and Veggies - they have strictly few Veggies in very small amounts and No Fruits or Healthy Complex Wholegrains and Legumes like the Low Glycemic Diet Diabetics have and are found in the Healthy Mediterranean Diet that have been practiced for Decades and have Benefited so many people.…

Published on Leave a comment on ‘Natural Flavour’ What Is It Really? I Will Tell You About Their ‘Dirty Little Secret’……Do Read

By Janet Vargas - Independent Natural Health Researcher 30+ Yrs

The FDA lets them use up to 100 Chemicals in their 'Natural Flavour' formulas to Imitate natural tastes in many Food Products, to Catch Us Out if we are Unsuspecting OR Very Careful, when shopping.

Alarming Or Incredible As This Seems:
To call them Natural, they only have to use 1 or 2 Natural Ingredients in those Chemical Formulas. Daaah!

So just like me, now you Know. I found this out months ago. So even as a Researcher, I was ignorant of this when Other Ingredients looked OK!

NATURAL FLAVOR is the One Ingredient I didn't think to Check Out.

As some people are aware, the FDA is Corrupt. That's why they get away with these Cheats Tricks.  If you don't believe me, this Audio of a Smart history Video on YouTube will Set things Straight on How and by whom the FDA Started, and you will Find Out why people Ask Questions to this Day like "How-come the FDA allows This and That to be used in Food Products?"  I abhorred History Lessons at school however this Audio is far from boring.…

Published on 2 Comments on Why Do Some Health Advocates Promote Keto? So Baffling – It’s Not A Good Idea!

YES, YOU READ THAT RIGHT - IT'S ACTUALLY A DUMB IDEA, AND PROVEN TO BE SO RISKY FOR MANY PEOPLE WHO HAVE REGRETS. FIRSTLY BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE, JUST LIKE THE CARNIVORE DIET, INVENTERS OF THOSE HAVE SO MESSED AROUND WITH THE BASIC DIETARY REQUIREMENTS FOR EVERYONE'S FOOD INTAKE, WHICH IS A BALANCE OF HEALTHY PROTEINS, HEALTHY FATS and HEALTHY COMPLEX CARBS (not cheap nasty refined carbs and junk foods) KETO and CARNAVORE GO TO EXTREMES TO CORRECT POOR FOOD CHOICES and EATING HABITS, BUT AT THE SAME TIME VIOLATE OUR NEED FOR A BALANCED DIET - OUR BODY FUNCTIONS BEST ON (A SENSIBLE REAL FOOD DIET. SO INSTEAD OF DEFENDING OR PROMOTING KETO LIKE SOME ADVOCATES DO (which is baffling indeed and defies commonsense) I WILL GIVE YOU REASONS TO QUESTION AGUMENTS FOR KETO (Keto Keto, Keto Keto Brainwashing) Daaah! How do they get it so Wrong? IT'S BEYOND ME!!!!

Please be sparing with hard Cheeses like Tasty, Cheddar and Vintage Etc when you wish to Take Off Weight though because what Fattens Cows to "Make More Milk" often, can make You Fat too or Keep the Weight on.

Seriously - Forget Dodgy Keto!…

Published on Leave a comment on Maintaining Eye Health for Mental Health – A Different Concept

Vision Related With Mental Health

We all know that maintaining eye health is important, Indeed, potential vision loss is often one of the most feared aspects of ageing. It’s not difficult to understand why. The impacts of vision loss on daily functioning are obvious. What may not be so obvious, however, is how close the relationship is between your eyes and your mental health.

The Link Between Your Eyes and Your Brain

Physicians and researchers alike increasingly recognise the eye as an extension of the human brain. After all, the optic nerve that rests behind the eyeball forms a direct route into the deepest, oldest, and often the most instinctive and “emotional” parts of the brain.

The interconnectedness of the eyes and the brain lends credence to new and increasing evidence that the eyes can signal the presence not only of physical illness but the presence of mental illness as well.

For example, research suggests that optometrists may be able to detect signs of undiagnosed schizophrenia, presumably due to electrical anomalies characteristic of the illness that can be detected in the eyes’ pupillary reactivity.…
