Hi Friends, there is so much more Importance on Diet than what we think there is – what we Eat and what we don’t; what Kind of Diet we’re on – is it Balanced or Unbalanced? Is it Fad or Overpromising? I deal with certain things that have got into Our Food Chain that are Affecting Our Health adversely. And I will be writing on our Need for Nutrition when Dieting for Weight-Loss. And I will cover the more Nutritious Balanced Diets for Health we can Try.

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 The Leaky Gut Syndrome – The Permeable Intestine and How To Deal With It – Some Answers For Better Health!

You can blame most of this on the Highly Compromised  Food Industry where So Many Foods are not Real Food – they are Highly Processed… Ultra-Processed…Foods and Fake Foods…Laden with Cane Sugar or Sweeteners and ALL Manner of Chemical Additives. No wonder our Gut Health is going Crazy because most of the FOODS are CRAZY and Our Body can’t handle it.

This truly Is Important to Restore Gut Health Our Body depends on to experience GOOD HEALTH.
The pursuit of So Many in Our Time!

Our intestine comes into contact every day with the material from no time - in the form of food, bacterial fragments, pollutants. Between our body and the outside world, it is constantly decided which substances the body absorbs, which are not processed and excreted. In this process, a properly functioning intestinal mucosa of the gastrointestinal tract is required and of enormous importance for our health.

The symptoms of Leaky Gut syndrome can be very diffuse and diverse, such as:

  • Joint pain and muscle pain
  • Chronic muscle pain
  • Concentration disorders
  • Bloating, diarrhea, constipation
  • Headache / migraine
  • Mood fluctuations up to depression
  • Eczeme /acne
  • weakened immune system
  • Chronic fatigue
  • Food intolerance (food intolerances)
  • Irritable bowel complaints

Many of the symptoms mentioned are not necessarily associated with a sick intestine.…

Published on Leave a comment on A Low Salicylate Diet for Salicylate Intolerance to Help Manage Distressing Symptoms of Fatigue and Brain Fog Etc

By Janet Vargas - Independent Natural Health Researcher 30+ Yrs

If your System cannot Tolerate taking Aspirin, and Meals with Tomatoes, and certain Meals often cause you Stomach Discomfort or Fatigue or maybe even, IBS... you may have Anxiety or Depression...you most likely have a health condition called Salicylate Intolerance (similar but different to Allergies) A special Temporary Diet for your Food Needs could help control those Symptoms and make them less distressing.

A low-salicylate diet involves eating foods that are Low in or contain no Salicylates to reduce symptoms of salicylate intolerance. This diet involves carefully eliminating High-Salicylate Foods like certain Fruits, Vegetables, and Spices, and then reintroducing them under the guidance of a Healthcare Provider to identify which ones cause reactions. Salicylates are natural chemicals found in many Nutritious Foods, but they are also concentrated in Processed Foods and found in medications like Aspirin. 

Symptoms of Salicylate Intolerance can be:

Asthma, Headaches, Memory Loss, Poor Concentration, Fatigue, Stomach Pain, Bloating, IBS, Hyperactivity, Poor Concentration, Eczema, Stomach Pain, Night or Day Wetting, Irritability, Defiant Behaviour, Aggression, Cries Easily, Emotionally Sensitive, Sleeping Issues. No-One has All of them. Phew!  

Why Follow A Low-Salicylate Diet

The primary reason to follow this diet is to reduce symptoms of salicylate intolerance or sensitivity, which can include various skin reactions and respiratory issues.…

Published on Leave a comment on A Common Digestive Disorder IBS and What You Can Do About It: See This “Healthy FODMAP” Diet – It May Help You!

By Janet Vargas - Independent Natural Health Researcher 30+ Yrs

Have you heard of IBS, Irritable Bowel Syndrome? It is a somewhat troubling Disorder where your Digestive System is experiencing an Upheaval (disturbance in no small way) pretty much on a daily basis. STRESS is known to Flair Up distressing Symptoms of Cramping and Bloating; Gas and Flatulence, pronounced Stomach Gurgalling; accompanied with Bouts of Constipation and Diarrhoea. And even Irritability, due to ongoing discomfort which is stressful within itself. You can understand the Toll this would have on one’s Nervous System? And this Disorder has progressively getting more Common in Recent Years affecting more people.

Low FODMAP Diet - Healthier Lists

FODMAPs are any of a group of carbohydrates whose presence in the diet is thought to contribute to the symptoms of IBS. The term is used mainly with reference to a diet that is low in these compounds (which are mainly carbohydrates).

FODMAPs stands for fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides,
monosaccharides and polyols.

These are all Types of Carbohydrates that are Poorly Absorbed in the Small Intestine. As a result, they travel to the Large Intestine mostly Intact, where they’re Fermented by Gut Bacteria.…

Published on Leave a comment on Things Our Opticians Are Not Telling Us About DIET In Relation To EYE CARE

And this is only Part of the Story of Vital Questions they are Not ASKING US and Vital Guidelines they are Not Giving Us that are Imperative for the HEALTH of Our Precious EYES.

What's the reason for this? They're only into SELLING GLASSES basically which have several hundred percent markup on, someone informed us on YouTube several years back who left that line of work.

So I'm Calling Them Out for not only their Outrageous Profits but for not asking us how much SCREENTIME do we Subject our Eyes to each Day and Evening, and do we punish our eyes with Too Much BLUE LIGHT Exposure from Excessive Screen Use.

It would also be of immense benefit to Most of Us if they gave us a Printout of something like the following. My word it would, because the more you research Vision and Eyecare, you see it has a LOT to do with DIET. If you read on, you will see why. And it will make plenty of sense. Shall we go?

What’s the Worst Food for your Eyes? Beware of These 5

Published on Leave a comment on Teenager ‘Blind’ From Living Off Crisps And Chips: Our Eyes Don’t Favor Diet Abuse – Lets Be Kind To Them!

Michelle Roberts Health editor, BBC News online

Experts are warning about the risks of extreme restrictive eating after a teen developed permanent sight loss after living on a diet of chips and crisps.

Eye doctors in Bristol UK cared for the 17-year-old after his vision had deteriorated to the point of blindness.

Since leaving primary school, the teen had been eating only French fries, Pringles and white bread, as well as an occasional slice of ham or a sausage.

Tests revealed he had severe vitamin deficiencies and malnutrition damage.

Chips and Junk Food are BAD for Our EYES

Malnourished

Three years later, he was taken to the Bristol Eye Hospital because of progressive sight loss, Annals of Internal Medicine journal reports.

Dr Denize Atan, who treated him at the hospital, said: "His diet was essentially a portion of chips from the local fish and chip shop every day. He also used to snack on crisps - Pringles - and sometimes slices of white bread and occasional slices of ham, and not really any fruit and vegetables.

"He explained this as an aversion to certain textures of food that he really could not tolerate, and so chips and crisps were really the only types of food that he wanted and felt that he could eat."…

Published on Leave a comment on Janet doesn’t Endorse these Diets: Keto or Carnivore….No-Fat Low-Fat….Dash Diet….You Should Know Why!

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.

Yes all those things! And if you think I’m Crazy, all this has been Well Researched as an Avid Genuine Independent Researcher 30+ Years, not Paid to give Misleading Advice – I’ve even known well respected Harvard to do that a few times in an Outrageous Way through the years when the Bribes are High – a Huge amount of Revenue for Supporting such Culprit’s CLAIMS.…

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 The Diet Craze: Pushing for Keto…Carnivore…Plant Diet…Raw Food Diet…Vegan…Lets Find the Balance!

Hi there Friends, I'm starting this Article because I'm tired of seeing All the Unbalanced Diets that are being Heavily Promoted and Imposed on People and many of You are caught in the middle of it all. I truly do wish some Professional People would grow up. Some of them keep telling People that "This is the Diet You (Everyone) should be On" and NO diet can Claim that. Different Diets have Certain Benefits for Different People, providing they are Not Extreme.

I'm adding this Article to my Blog in addition to the one on Keto Diet because I abhor the way several Health Professionals push Keto or Carnivore Diets….Plant Diet…Raw Food Diet and Vegan are also Unbalanced. Definitely. Now they're coming up with the Bible Diet (Similar to the Ancient Food Diet) and the Human Diet and who knows what else?

The Keto and Carnivore Diets seem to be promoted a heck of a Lot and in my opinion are Very Unhealthy, plus you can get very sick on those - they are basically Animal Protein and Fat, very little of anything else.…
