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?

Most of us have heard about UPFs (Ultra-Processed Foods) hey? Some of these Items are INGREDIENTS we would maybe be using to Make Our Own Foods. It really "gets a bit much!" doesn't it? Makes us feel like telling those Manufacturers "Would you Stop Messing with Our Foods!?" OR Boycotting Them like our Grandparents and Greats did. Hey, that's a Good Idea. Think I may encourage More of That!

Orange Juice
What could be complicated about orange juice? It is made from oranges, juiced — except when it’s not. That some juice makers feel compelled to regularly pump up their product with non-orange ingredients seems far-fetched, but they do it. And in fact, orange juice is one of the most popular items to have suspect ingredients sneaked into the mix. The FFD is chock full of faux orange juices, one of the most shocking reveals a mixture of beet sugar, corn sugar, monosodium glutamate, ascorbic acid, potassium sulfate, orange pulp wash, grapefruit solids, and a byproduct from a water distillation system.

But Nutritionists are railing against OJ for another reason. Packed with sugar, calories and carbs, orange juice isn't much better for you nutritionally than soda or any other sweetened beverage, reports Business Insider.…

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 Diet: The Most Overlooked Cause Of Poor Quality Sleep. Do You Want To Sleep Better?

Forget Sleeping Pills—This Natural Fix Is in Your Kitchen

By Mie Hermansen

From melatonin sprays to meditation apps, we’ve tried everything to sleep better. But researchers now say one of the most powerful tools for better rest is already in your fridge. Here’s how diet may be the secret to a deeper night’s sleep.

More Fruits and Veggies, Better Sleep

Participants who consumed more plant-based foods during the day experienced noticeably more restful and uninterrupted sleep that same night.

Sleep Benefits Showed Up After Just One Day

The improvements didn’t take weeks to appear—researchers observed positive sleep changes within the first 24 hours of eating more fruits and vegetables.

Less Tossing and Turning

Those with higher fruit and vegetable intake experienced fewer sleep disruptions, meaning they were less likely to wake up or shift out of deep sleep during the night.

Just Five Servings Made a Measurable Difference

Researchers estimated that meeting the CDC’s daily recommendation of five servings could improve sleep quality by as much as 16 percent.

Whole Grains Help Too

Alongside produce, participants who consumed healthy carbs like whole grains also reported better sleep, likely due to improved regulation of blood sugar and hormones.…

Published on Leave a comment on You’ve Been Conned: Your “Healthy” Cereal Might Be Ruining Your Health – Don’t Trust The Front Of The Box!

Breakfast cereal might look like a quick and easy way to start your day,
but new research shows many cereals - especially those aimed at kids - are less healthy than ever.

Here's what you need to know before pouring your next bowl.

Sugar Levels Are On The Rise

Though the increase in sugar might seem modest, many cereals already start with a high sugar content.

Most exceed recommended daily sugar limits, especially when served to children, making them a poor everyday option.

Fat Content Has Jumped Over 30 %

From 2010 to 2023, fat levels in children’s cereals increased by a staggering 33.6%.

High fat content in the morning can contribute to poor cardiovascular health and unbalanced energy levels.

Sodium Is Creeping Up Too

Sodium content rose by 32.1% across new cereal launches, which can raise blood pressure - even in children - and increase long-term heart disease risks.

Fiber Is Steadily Decreasing

Dietary fiber dropped significantly after 2021, falling from 3.82 grams to just 2.94 grams per serving.

That’s a big problem for digestion, fullness, and maintaining a healthy weight.

Protein Has Taken A Hit

Protein content fell from an average of 1.97 grams to 1.69 grams per serving over 14 years.…

Published on Leave a comment on Manage Chronic Inflammation: Reduce Redness, Swelling and More by Avoiding These 10 Foods in Your Daily Diet

BELIEVE IT OR NOT, LOTS OF PEOPLE HAVE IMPROVED OR SAID GOODBYE TO THEIR PAIN ISSUES BY AVOIDING FAKE FOODS and PROCESSED FOODS and TOXIC LIKE YOU WILL SEE HERE IN THIS ARTICLE. GIVE IT SOME TIME AND YOU WILL BE SURPRIZED - OFTEN IT'S SOONER:)

From Nivedita on MSN

Diet tips: Inflammation is a natural response to injury, but chronic inflammation can lead to serious health issues. Avoid processed foods, trans fats, and sugary drinks to manage inflammation effectively.

Inflammation is your body's natural response to injury, infection, or irritation.
It's a complex biological process involving the immune system, blood vessels, and various signalling molecules. When tissue is damaged or threatened by pathogens, the body releases chemicals that cause blood vessels to dilate, allowing immune cells to reach the affected area. This results in increased blood flow, warmth, redness, and swelling, which are typical signs of inflammation.

The immune cells, such as white blood cells, work to remove harmful substances and repair damaged tissue, says Dr Vivek Madhav, Metro Hospital’s rheumatologist. While acute inflammation is essential for healing, chronic inflammation, which persists over time, can be harmful and contribute to various diseases like heart disease, diabetes, and arthritis.…

How Do Seed Oils Affect The Electrons In Your Body?
By "Be Grounded" 

I've been telling you Folks, we should leave these so-called Food Products on the Shelf: Canola, Vegetable Oil, Sunflower Oil, Safflower Oil, Soy Oil, Corn Oil, Grapeseed Oil and Rice Bran Oil - just so you don't miss any and change to other Unhealthy Oils. Same applies to Margarines AND so-called Soft Butters where these same Cheapskate Manufacturers add Canola or Veggie Oil to the Butter to make it Soft for your "Convenience"........ remember my saying here "Soft on your Bread = Hard on your Health" and do remember, these butters are not always referred to as "Blends"........ I always purpose to educate you on MARKETING PLOYS here on Ours Australia, so you know what to look for when Shopping. You are far better choosing Butter in the old-fashioned "Paper Wrapper" OK?

Fermentation looks complicated—But it isn't really

Published on Leave a comment on Ultra-Processed Foods: The Heat Is On – Give Them Pressure – Give Them Curry – Don’t Stop!

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.…
