"KETO KETO KETO KETO, KETO KETO KETO KETO............" That's ALL you Hear and See on the Internet! And Stacks of Recipe Websites and Lots of Books on Bookshelves.

Published on Leave a comment on How Exercise Can Treat And Prevent Common Mental Health Issues Like Anxiety And Depression

I don't have much faith in GPs and the Medical System, as I have made clear on this Website. They often give dangerous advice and write Scripts for Toxic and Addictive Meds. But I have added this Article because it speaks about the Benefits of Exercise in relation to Mental Health. I do think this Principle in Practice could be really good for some Readers of my Blog and I wish you all well.

During the pandemic, Nikola Sowry made a decision that helped her become happier and healthier.

After feeling challenged and disconnected during recurring lockdowns, the 29-year-old decided to try out a community football team in Melbourne's inner suburbs. 

"Finding footy and this club genuinely changed my life," she said.

Before football, Nikola struggled to find exercise that suited her.

While she never had a diagnosed mental health condition, she credits the South Melbourne Districts team with transforming her physical and mental health.

"I'm just such a happier, healthy version of myself by being here," she said.

What Nikola experienced is backed by research. 

The link between mental health and physical activity is strong enough that studies are showing exercise can be used on its own as a treatment for mild to moderate depression or anxiety. …

By Janet Vargas - Independent Natural Health Researcher 30+ Years

Recently in the last 2 Months, there has been a surge of Articles on Google News on my Mobile concerning ULTRA-PROSESSED FOODS, the way they're Made and the Damage they make to OUR HEALTH. It's Outrageous, the way they get away with that. So much for "Crime Stoppers" you could say.

So I've decided to write about this, having been very Aware and Concerned how many People fill their shopping carts with so much of that Stuff to Feed their Families with. As a Researcher, knowing the full implications of ingesting these Fake and Synthetic Foods on a Regular Basis is detrimental at some time along the way - our Body protests about the way we are treating it - it sometimes does this through disturbing or distressing symptoms and Many People get VERY ILL.

All this is Imposed on the Innocent Public in the form of Tasty, Addictive, Convenient Products. People buy into these Marketing Ploys and before they know it, they're buying More and More of these Items and they become the NORM in their house. The Manufacturers are without doubt delighted about all the Extra Sales AND I intend to see they get a LOT LESS.…

Learning the Beauty of Small Talk
It can be Beneficial

Whether it's at a party, a friend's wedding, or the workplace, some people just dread small talk. And while these events are great places to meet new people, it can bring more anxiety than excitement for some. They might worry that it will be boring, awkward, or that they'll run out of things to say. Then there are people who believe small talk represents meaningless and trivial conversation. But it doesn't have to be that way! In reality, increased well-being and positivity are some of the benefits of small talk.

Be interested in things

People with hobbies and interests always seem to have a topic or an opinion to share. Get inspired by them, and you'll have a launching point to get someone else involved in conversation.

Get your mind right

If you spend the week before the event anticipating and worrying because you know you'll feel uncomfortable, you're setting yourself up for failure. Try to remember why you're going, whether it's to celebrate a friend or connect with your coworkers.

Reduce anxiety

Some people may approach small talk with anxiety. To curb your anxiety, stay rational and positive.…

Published on Leave a comment on Scientists Show Strolls With Stops Use More Energy Than Continuous Walking

Researchers show more energy needed to get going than later in walks when body is working more efficiently.

Researchers have hit on an unusual tip for walkers who want to burn more calories: rather than plodding along steadily from start to finish, consider taking rest stops.

The advice emerged from a study of volunteers who were put through their paces in the laboratory to measure the oxygen and energy demands of short strolls versus longer walks.

Tests on the participants found that walking or climbing stairs in 10- to 30-second bouts required 20 to 60% more oxygen, a proxy for energy consumption, than covering the same distance in one continuous session, largely because walking is more efficient after several minutes in motion.

“When we walk for shorter bouts, we use more energy and consume more oxygen to cover the same distance,” said Francesco Luciano, a researcher at the University of Milan and first author on the study. “It’s like having a car that consumes more fuel during the first few kilometres than it does afterwards.”

The team launched the study after noticing that many estimates of the energy needed for walking drew on data from people exercising at a metabolic steady state.…

Short Walks Or Long Walks? Best Walking Duration For Maximum Benefits

There is no one-size-fits-all answer when it comes to walking. Whether you’re opting for short walks to clear your mind or committing to long walks for weight loss and mental well-being. So, whether you choose to walk for 10 minutes or 90 minutes, the most important thing is that you’re moving. Walking, in any form, can be a valuable part of a healthy lifestyle.

5 Reasons To Rub Magnesium Oil On Your Feet

Using magnesium oil on your feet can help your body with a lot of things. Applying it transdermally through a foot massage helps get the necessary dosage effortlessly, supporting overall well-being.

A nightly ritual involving rubbing magnesium oil on your feet is gaining attention due to its potential health benefits. This article explores the significance of magnesium and the benefits it offers. Magnesium is essential for over 300 biochemical reactions in the body, yet research indicates that up to 75 percent of people might not be getting enough.

The recommended daily intake of magnesium is between
310 to 320 milligrams for women and 400 to 420 for men.

Many have found transdermal application, which involves applying magnesium directly to the skin, to be an effective method. One such practice involves spraying magnesium oil, a sea salt spray, on the feet and rubbing it in. This method might cause a tingling sensation initially and can either be left on the skin overnight or washed off after 20 to 30 minutes.

The primary benefits of using magnesium oil include:

Improved sleep

By Janet Vargas - Independent Natural Health Researcher 30+ Yrs

The World's System Profits when People are Unwell and Medical often makes us Sick. Most times, Natural Health Practitioners are genuinely Sincere and Help you to Build Up your Health. However Health Manufacturers are often into charging horrendous amounts for their Products, creating confusion in the minds of many.

There are Ways of working around that to gain Better Health when you know what to look for. And how to Identify and Dismiss false and Misleading Advice and Guidelines Governments Accept and Promote through Education Systems due to Greedy Cheapskate Manufacturers Lobbying to change Food Laws to Support their Arguments decades ago now when most people weren't aware that those Changes took place and the Real Reason they did.

This In fact has been the Underlying reason why So Many People's Health has been badly affected, and the Over Processed "Foods" in recent years have drastically affected the Health of Many including Children.

It's a shocking state of affairs, I'm sure you agree when many of you reading this
realise for the first time that some of that goes on.

Things should not be that way.…
