    How to change course

    Your disease isn’t your real problem, it’s the solution. You are your real problem.

    Pain is the most important message

    Slow is Smooth, Smooth is Fast

    My full protocol will shock you

    Actually, this is the shortcut … seriously

    I’ve been sick a long time. But sick in the way most people nowadays are sick, i.e. not really thinking of myself as sick. “I’m healthy!”, we all insist. And we believe it unless someone scratches beneath the surface. Then a laundry list of “minor” complaints often spills out.

    Now, I have to say before we go any further that it is actually better not to think of oneself as “sick.” Those who think they’re fine do much better in terms of morbidity and mortality than those who think they’re not, regardless of the medical “facts.” That’s because of one of the main points we hope to make in this article, that diseases aren’t necessarily harmful to people. They’re just messages and maneuvers after all (more on exactly what that means shortly).

    It’s usually the interventions upon interventions upon interventions that hurt you. As well as the toxic nocebo effects of associating with well-meaning doctors who don’t actually know much about the body, why it manifests disease, or how to cure it.

    My “Messages”

    As for me: I was significantly overweight with some mild psoriasis, chronically constipated, had weirdly weak urine flow without prostate problems, suffered occasional reflux, occasional insomnia, got angry and irritable often, couldn’t control my sweet tooth, recently began feeling a small umbilical (belly button) hernia developing, had mild brain fog (e.g. occasional word finding difficulty) that’s been very mildly worsening for years now, and had a lot of difficulty changing myself in ways I wanted to change.

    I had a few signs most people wouldn’t even know are indicators of ill-health like skin tags and a few lipomas, which may indicate insulin resistance (which 99% of people likely have in the modern west). Ridges on my nails which likely indicate a micronutrient deficiency. Developing bags under my eyes that could indicate stress on the liver detox pathways. Beard quickly turning gray during the pandemic, which certainly indicated a lot of stress (I was working 15 hour days for months in a row at one point). Plaque that rapidly built up and remained on my teeth despite regular brushing that indicates a disruption of the oral microbiome.

    Most people will surprise themselves if they sit down and list out everything they can think of. It might even take a couple days as some things have become so normalized you don’t even think of them anymore. If you had fast forwarded from 10 to 40+ in a few days it would have been shockingly dismaying and would likely have either led to despair or determination - i.e. to fix yourself up ASAP and no matter what. But we don’t fast forward through the slowly-boiling-frog stage. It takes decades, so we just accept early aging, unnecessary dysfunction and an untimely death.

    Changing Course

    Changing course requires two necessities: 1. discovering there is another option that you’re convinced will work, and 2. finding the motivation to implement it.

    There is another option. I’ve seen it with my own eyes. My partner Hakim Shabaz has implemented it with 100s of patients (mostly those about to die since it is so demanding), and quite impressively on himself. He went from being in his early 30s and looking like he was going on 50, to actually going on 50, but looking like he’s in his early 30s. Along the way his health radically improved in myriad ways.

    Finding motivation. This is trickier, but relates to number 1.

    Motivation to do something requires belief that it will work. Belief requires education and perhaps most importantly avoiding miseducation (or deprogramming from it). Miseducation is all around us all the time. Nearly every time you interface with the world you’re misinformed in some way, because the very paradigm of reality that everyone uses as the basis of everything they think, say and do, is way off. This is particularly obvious and harmful when speaking to anyone in the modern medical system about anything. None of them understand the first thing about disease (see next section).

    Once you begin to believe, you still have to strengthen your belief. This means continuing to expose yourself to information that affirms it, and avoid information that detracts from it.

    As your belief grows you continually remind yourself of the tremendous benefits of implementing what is admittedly a somewhat difficult lifestyle overhaul that will continue for months, but will pay dividends not only for the rest of your natural earthly life, but into all of eternity.

    Pray and plead for that lightbulb moment that is so rare, and powerful, when suddenly you feel the hand of fate reach down and nudge you onto a different course.

    Once the moment arrives, commit wholeheartedly and stay the course without “cheating,” which has led to the utter failure of so many people who were finally headed in the right direction. It can literally take years to come up with the motivation to try again. Ask those who’ve been there, like me. Learn from my mistakes as well as those of others, as well as your own.

    The First Thing About Disease

    This is why you avoid “healthcare” like the plague.

    Because, honestly, it’s not even what most people who are “awake” have started calling it, i.e. “Disease Care”.

    It’s actually Disease Producing.

    The first thing to know about disease is that what you see is not your problem. It’s usually the solution to your problem.

    Disease is at least two things: 1. a message and 2. a maneuver.

    It’s a message in at least two possible ways: direct and indirect.

    A direct message means that there’s a physical toxin and/or pathogen in some tissue of your body, and your immune system is fighting it off, rooting it out, which creates symptoms. Just as if criminals had taken your family hostage and a SWAT team had to come save them. They might try negotiating at first, but if things escalate and there’s no other choice they kick down your door and go capture or kill the bad guys. If you systematically refuse to allow SWAT to take care of these situations then criminals will start doing the same to more and more families throughout the city. Eventually other crime will explode as well. Lawlessness will reign and eventually you may have to bring in the military to get it under control. If you then prevent the military from doing the job, eventually you may have a full on revolution. If you still prevent the military from stepping in you lose the city, state or even the entire country.

    An indirect message means that there’s an emotional root cause issue, like childhood trauma that may be manifesting as an allergic disorder triggered by usually harmless items like common foods. In both cases the body isn’t making any mistakes, it’s responding appropriately to help you deal with the real root cause of your problem, which is hurting you physically or emotionally.

    It’s a maneuver in that the symptoms and signs themselves are helpful in mitigating the harm from the underlying root cause. Lab work which is almost universally misunderstood by modern medical practitioners and patients offers many examples. High ferritin levels, the storage form of iron, are usually due to inflammation or infection. So the high ferritin is not a problem to be fixed in and of itself. Many pathogens can make use of iron to hurt you, so the body locks it away from them, which raises ferritin. If you somehow force your body to lower ferritin, it would just make matters worse as you would be less well equipped to fight off the invading force. Out of range lab values are just secondary signs of your body doing the best possible thing for you in the situation you’re in. Reversing the helpful reaction to your problem may help with certain symptoms like fatigue due to anemia from low iron, but it doesn’t help you in the medium or long term, it only ends up harming you far more as the underlying problem proliferates and comes back to bite you harder.

    So, both mainstream and almost all of alternative medicine are way off-base and really just a false dichotomy. They both assume the body is doing the wrong thing because it's either broken or confused. It's not either. It's your first, best, and often only real physician.

    You have to get to the underlying, deeper layer of causes which are not physical or energetic, they’re psycho-spiritual, and they manifests the physical means of disease-making superficial physical causes like toxins, pathogens and lack of nutrients through the energetic weakening that is manifested in your physical organs, by depleting those organs of nutrients and making them susceptible to invasion by toxins and pathogens that cause disease.

    Which again is not a bad thing, because it's just a message pointing you in the direction of your real problem.

    Pain is Good

    Pain is the most important message, because it protects you from what would harm you which is another way of saying it keeps you alive. Because what harms in small quantities, kills in large doses. You can get a large dose all at once, or have it build up over the decades until it finally finishes you off, which is what happens to most people.

    Pain will begin as mild discomfort. A bit of reflux, occasional constipation, some rough menstrual periods, random headaches, mild allergies, etc.

    If you understand what’s going on you’ll pay attention, not cover it up with symptomatic medications, address the deeper root cause issues and get back on the right track.

    Pain is meant to course correct you.

    If you took off on a trans-Atlantic voyage with the right heading, but then you never again checked your instruments to be sure you were still on the right course, you might end up in South Africa instead of the south of France.

    Pain is feedback from your body and soul. It means you’re headed the wrong way. Check your instruments and get back on track.

    The Real Roots of Disease

    Consciousness comes first, and it manifests the physical world. Consciousness has a connection to the Divine, a sense that there’s something greater than itself, an ultimate creative force. Consciousness has various other aspects of itself like the ability to believe certain things about reality, be motivated to do things for itself, the ability to plan, the ability to feel emotions, the ability to balance the needs of disparate parts of itself, and finally the ability to manifest its various parts as energy and ultimately physical substance.

    Different “higher” aspects of self relate to different parts of the energetic and physical body. The heart balances between the organs. The liver relates to anger. The kidneys to fear.

    As mentioned above, when these or other emotions are imbalanced they place strain on their respective organs. Over time that strain wears down the organs, and as they get worn down they become less able to do their particular jobs. The organs also become less able to protect themselves from the buildup of toxins and from unusual proliferation of our own microbiome or invasion by foreign pathogens. The microbiome includes not only bacteria, but fungi, viruses, and may even include some parasites in some people. Fungi are nature’s toxin cleanup crews. They do the same inside our own bodies. When toxins build up they proliferate to bind, sequester and protect our tissues from them. Various other elements of the microbiome have their own reasons to proliferate on our behalf. Beneficial bacteria for example often aid tremendously in fighting off foreign pathogenic bacteria, something that might become necessary when the immune system within a particular tissue can no longer do its job adequately. The not so downside to all these maneuvers is that there will often be some uncomfortable side effects, or pain signals sent because of them.

    Focus on the Meaning of the Message

    To understand how to reverse disease and get truly healthy again, we have to know what not to do first.

    We can’t just focus on the superficial symptoms and signs.

    Everyone who's studied anything about alternative health probably understands that to some extent, but what most don’t understand is just how many things fall under the superficial category.

    Really everything physical is superficial, including all those “risk factors” that you’re warned about and urged to “control” like high blood pressure, high blood sugar, insulin resistance, obesity, and even “stress” itself.

    None of these are root causes.

    There’s really only one root cause.

    You are the root cause of not only all your illnesses, but of all your problems in life.

    You have to fix you before it’s too late.

    What that means is that imbalance at some level of your being will always be manifested as a problem of some sort in your life. As above, so below, as within, so without. This is a law of reality that must be manifested if our existence is to have any meaning. The purpose of existence is to better know ourselves, and thereby the Divine reality and incrementally perfect ourselves in order to draw nearer to it. The universe itself only manifests what we need in order for us to do so, which means it shows us our own faults in order that we may correct them.

    If we tend to be too angry, the universe and everything within it will respond to us in a certain way that will reveal that that excessive anger is a problem - e.g. by giving us various symptoms stemming from some form of liver dysfunction (or its downstream effects on other organs), or making our lives much more difficult than they would otherwise be.

    We may struggle to deal with the anger until perhaps we realize it’s actually based on fear of being harmed and lashing out against that perceived threat to protect ourselves.

    And we may struggle to deal with that fear until perhaps we realize that it’s based on a misconception about the nature of the universe and what’s in it, believing that what is manifested within it is even capable of harming or benefiting us of its own accord.

    At a more practical level, most people are afraid of other people, until they realize that those other people aren’t actually out to get them. That the threat they perceive from others is just a reflection of their own selves. That the sullen expressions or scowls they notice on other’s faces are just a reflection of their own expressions and feelings. What’s underneath the surface of others is ultimately a mystery but assuming the best of them produces the best interactions and outcomes.

    How to Heal

    Some animals just sit there like plants and whatever they need from the world comes to them. They don’t lift a finger or move an inch, yet they eat, drink and procreate. These strange creatures include sponges, anemones, corals, barnacles, and sea squirts (yes, these are all classified as animals).

    coral reef
    Coral is a strange animal
    Despite what you may think, human beings may also be numbered among them, though it’s certainly not our natural state.

    We’re meant to be creatures of action, and action is required for us to grow and change. Our spiritual, mental and emotional sides are deeply entwined with our energetic and physical bodies. What moves one, moves the other. And we’re the ones that move both. However it’s easier to move the physical than it is the energetic, emotional or intellectual. We can’t simply drift in the waves of this world and expect to do any meaningful work on our thoughts, emotions, and spirit. Interacting with others and with the events of our lives is what reveals us to ourselves. Changing how we interact is what shows us that we’ve actually grown and aren’t just fooling ourselves into thinking that we have. You can weep and beg forgiveness in the middle of the night for what you did wrong, but the only way to know for certain that you’ve actually changed is to be in a similar situation again and find out if you commit the same misdeed you did before.

    So the way to change is to do something different that you’re sure will work and keep score so you can’t lie to yourself.

    That’s why the first step in a real healing protocol is to get a plan of action from someone who really knows what they’re doing and can help you heal anything (that’s my own teacher and practice partner Hakim Shabaz, click below to learn more).


    My 5 Week Results

    Strangely enough right from day one I noticed a big improvement in mood, reactivity, and irritability. I was suddenly able to make headway on self-improvement, such as keeping score against myself in order to stop getting selfishly angry, i.e. stop acting like a spoiled 2 year old brat whenever things didn’t go my way. This must have been a placebo-type effect linked to finally deciding to make long overdue, big, hard, sustained changes - I committed to doing it strictly for at least 2 months straight (ensuring there would be no travel plans during that time necessitating skipping key protocol components).

    My skin started clearing up immediately and I started losing weight, which continued throughout at a rapid rate of about 0.7 pounds per day, for a total of about 25 pounds, which brought me down into the normal BMI range for the first time in years. My teeth felt much cleaner within days, almost all the plaque disappearing.

    Redness in my face went away quickly. I have a few patches of psoriasis which became 95% less inflamed and almost stopped scaling entirely within days.

    After a couple weeks the largest skin tag suddenly got inflamed, swelled and was tender for a couple days, then promptly shriveled up and just fell off. A week later a smaller one did the same. Around the same time I passed some roundworms and then started seeing the liver flukes in every bowel movement / enema (they look like floating white date pits, or thin cloves of garlic 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch long).

    Image
    These are the liver flukes. Mine all look whitish like the one on top.
    After 3 weeks I realized I was also probably passing hydatid cysts.

    Image
    (If instead of doing all that I had been impatient and just taken some anti-parasitic medication I might have killed so many parasites so fast that my small intestine and gallbladder may have become blocked requiring hospitalization and even surgery.)

    In the 3rd or 4th week I noticed that the urine flow had started improving almost all the time.

    In the 5th week I started noticing moments of greater clarity, and improved mental functioning, especially when in the hot bath, where I experienced a lot of creativity, perhaps because I get particularly relaxed inside.

    This was reminiscent of a period of self improvement I went through decades ago during med school when I got very lean for the first time in my life. What I noticed then and even more so now was that when you become less attached to things, and less wrapped up in yourself, you gain a significant number of IQ points, it feels like anywhere from 5-10+. Instead of going from upset to upset, and getting stuck in various outrage cycles throughout the day, you can dispassionately assess every situation like a word problem or simple riddle, and start to see how perceived problems usually have a very simple and straightforward solution which leaves you far better off than you were before the “problem” presented itself in your life. When you become more present you start seeing multiple moves ahead in every situation and become far more efficient, because you just have more headspace for life. These changes are related to decreasing brain inflammation.

    In the 5th week I also realized that I had slowed down, though this happened a lot earlier, probably near the very beginning. When I’m inflamed and stressed I often get this sense of urgency where I feel I need to rush everything, especially eating.

    I haven’t had any reflux or trouble getting to sleep. No sweet cravings.

    I just realized while writing this that the two most prominent lipomas have started shrinking, appearing to be about half as large as they used to be, which is not usually seen with simple weight loss.

    As the 5th week finished up I started passing what looked like puffed millet.

    Puffed Millet - Organic
    puffed millet
    Also what looked like chunks of bowel wall, but are probably what people refer to a “rope worms,” likely mucus deposits on the walls of the colon that are sloughing off, we think they’re likely remnants of microbial biofilms, and they’re routinely seen in all our patients who watch for them while following their protocols.

    An important point to note is that it’s not all a bed of roses. Part of healing usually requires dealing with some discomfort and even periods of symptom worsening.

    Before the parasite die off began there was a period of a couple days where I became nauseated and then on the 3rd day I projectile vomited after completing my morning green juice. Then as the parasite die-off started I got much more irritable, some mild dyspepsia cropped up, I had a couple nights of light sleep.

    The mental benefits I initially experienced didn’t progress and actually regressed a couple weeks later as more and more toxins began to be released. New mild rashes popped up on my neck, probably from head and neck toxins being flushed out.

    All these issues led to minor additions or alterations to my protocol and required close communication with Hakim Shabaz.

    We see similar issues frequently in patients who have significant whole body toxicity that has developed over decades. It may last for days or weeks at a time, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

    In some patients microbial die off, especially of parasites, can lead to much worse, like severe pain, biliary and colonic blockages, infection from rotting matter that can’t be fully expelled from involved organs. Our patients don’t develop these since our. protocols are carefully designed to be gradual and not sudden, but many of our patients do develop severe paranoia. Much of the work of the protocol is meant to minimize this stress reaction from affecting patients too greatly, for example various calming herbs and breathing practices.

    When certain microbes, including parasites start to feel threatened they naturally release their own stress hormones, which mimic ours and have the same effects on us that our own do. As parasites begin to die their stress spikes intensely and can make us feel a sense of impending doom, as though we’re going to die. Hakim Shabaz often tells patients on the first visit to write a note to themselves for future reference: “I will reach a point where parasite die off will make me very angry at Hakim Shabaz and I will want to stop the protocol.” When it actually happens and patients are reminded of this seemingly silly task they had completed it can help kick them out of a growing spiral of despair. However many patients cheat on their protocols, which only serves to increase the likelihood their parasite die off will be particularly uncomfortable and perhaps not even as effective as it would otherwise be. That’s because we don’t need to just kill them, we need to shift the terrain so they don’t come back. And we need the body’s help to get into the biofilm where many of them hide. Medications alone often do not accomplish the task without careful adherence to the protocol which starves them of their usual nourishment.

    “Slow is Smooth, Smooth is Fast.”

    The famous Navy Seals mantra applies to most areas of life, including our health. When you take it slow things go smoothly, mistakes don’t happen, you don’t have to redo things over and over. You get it right the first time. And that makes things go quicker than if you were in a rush to begin with. Whether the journey is the destination or the destination is the destination, in either case doing it right matters. And right means you don’t rush it, because the reward for slogging through slowly compounds over time. As your brain gets less inflamed you sleep better despite sleeping less, your relationships improve, you accomplish more in less time with fewer resources. Your quality of life climbs. Rather than struggling to the top of a hill and not finding any path to climb higher, you learn to fly and take off in the direction of exponential hockey stick growth and change.

    Dr. Abdulrahman M. Aljamouss | The Hockey stick growth
    Everyone has toxins and pathogens in them contributing to ill health, but they have to be removed gradually since the pathways of elimination are only so large. It's like evacuating a city during a disaster. The roads can become completely blocked and then no one gets out.

    The body also needs to be nutritionally supported and the psyche intellectually and emotionally supported by reframing various aspects of life and addressing deeper root causes of illness, since toxins and pathogens are not really the root causes of disease.

    Root causes are found in the psyche and manifested in the form of energetic dysfunction, which further manifests as physical weakness, which leads to the persistence of toxins and pathogens which manifests the physical symptoms as the immune system attempts to root them out.

    Simply flushing toxins and killing pathogens will often resolve symptoms, but not the deeper causes, which means they will manifest themselves again in the same disease after some time, or in some new disease.

    Almost all modern medicine, whether mainstream or alternative, simply applies superficial band aid solutions to symptoms. This passes the buck to your future self with interest. A few months of focused effort can usually fix the deepest problems and pay dividends for decades.

    What I’m Doing

    My protocol is specific to me, though it’s possible others might benefit from it or something similar. I have seen that the protocols from Hakim Shabaz can vary widely depending on the specifics of a person’s health problems. Since the protocol is so time consuming and difficult for most people to commit to long enough to see its benefits, it pays to have the right personalized protocol right off the bat. Even if there were a broadly generalizable generic protocol it would still likely be missing one or a few ingredients specific to each person that could make all the difference in speeding up results.

    Generally speaking, as I see it, the approach to healing from any disease whatsoever involves the following steps that Hakim Shabaz’s protocols help to initiate:

    Believe strongly that you can get better and trigger the placebo effect. Committing to a difficult, time-consuming protocol helps greatly with this, because psychologically it requires some belief to even begin, but the doing also helps to create and strengthen the belief itself. This dynamic creates a positive feedback loop of strengthening belief the longer you continue.

    At the beginning or within the first few months come to understand and accept that every disease reflects the inner self in some way, and resolving it requires doing some work on that aspect of yourself.

    Change the physical to mitigate the symptoms and at the same time help shift your inward reality towards a healthy balanced state. At the physical level we do things like coffee enemas to help the body flush out toxins by opening up the detox pathways of the liver/gallbladder/intestinal complex, the lungs, the skin, and the kidneys. We take toxin binders like chlorella so that the toxins that are dumped into the intestines don’t just recirculate back into the bloodstream. We take antimicrobial compounds to help kill off pathogens. We supplement nutrients that are missing by natural means, which are inherently balanced, e.g. with organ meats and vegetable juicing. Throughout we aim to begin gently rather than harshly. We start with low dose mild antimicrobials so as not to shock the body or lead to rapid die-off which is very uncomfortable, and unhelpful at best, harmful at worst.

    Eventually begin changing the mental and emotional levels and finally resolving old traumas by reframing them rather than repeatedly remembering them within the same frame of reference and thereby re-traumatizing ourselves. This takes someone wise and well-versed in the ancient techniques of really effective psychotherapy and neural retraining. This isn’t just talk therapy, it’s much more effective and efficient if you’re willing to do it.

    Below you’ll find all the details of my comprehensive personal protocol, which along with a specific detox diet, various whole herbs, chlorine dioxide dosing, and certain simple Ayurvedic detox modalities, also includes links to a recipe for a homemade nutritional paste that helps improve detox of the liver, a homemade neck cream that helps detox the head, neck and brain, including the inner ears, and directions for practicing the Humming Bee Breath, which is particularly effective at discharging the toxic energy imbalances caused by emotional trauma, mental stress and even EMF radiation, a well as helping allay chronic irritability and anger.

    The complexity of this protocol and the time required to implement it daily is daunting, and many will balk, insisting that it can’t be that hard, there must be an easier way. Actually killing parasites is not that hard. Many people can take ivermectin and fenbendazole and natural herbs and extracts and they’ll find parasites in their stool and call it a day. The trouble is that the real problem is still there, and even if the parasites are all rooted out, they often come right back, because the terrain is still welcoming them in.

    But, the real reason deep healing requires so much effort is because of just how toxic our modern environment is, physically, emotionally, intellectually and spiritually. Our ancestors didn’t have to exert so much effort to just get to "normal.” A protocol like this only seems extreme if you don’t realize just how sick the entire planet has become, and that we’re immersed in that dirty fish bowl all the time.

    As far as difficulty level, spending 3+ hours a day for 6 months is easy mode.

    You know what's hard? Becoming disabled and dying early. Also hard: spending 20 years to become a neurosurgeon. If I told you that you had to spend 20 years and half a million dollars in schooling fees in order to heal you would be justified in saying that's hard.

    People need to finally put their health in perspective. You've been sold a bill of goods. Everyone wants a magic pill, but there is no magic pill.

    Something intense like what I’m about to describe is already the easiest, fastest way. Everything else has you going in circles or straight backwards while you fool yourself into believing you're making progress.

He went from being in his early 30s and looking like he was going on 50, to actually going on 50, but looking like he’s in his early 30s. Along the way his health radically improved in myriad ways.

This is particularly obvious and harmful when speaking to anyone in the modern medical system about anything. None of them understand the first thing about disease (see next section). Once you begin to believe, you still have to strengthen your belief. This means continuing to expose yourself to information that affirms it, and avoid information that detracts from it. As your belief grows you continually remind yourself of the tremendous benefits of implementing what is admittedly a somewhat difficult lifestyle overhaul that will continue for months, but will pay dividends not only for the rest of your natural earthly life, but into all of eternity. Pray and plead for that lightbulb moment that is so rare, and powerful, when suddenly you feel the hand of fate reach down and nudge you onto a different course. Once the moment arrives, commit wholeheartedly and stay the course without “cheating,” which has led to the utter failure of so many people who were finally headed in the right direction. It can literally take years to come up with the motivation to try again. Ask those who’ve been there, like me. Learn from my mistakes as well as those of others, as well as your own. Thanks for reading Dr. Syed Haider! This post is public so feel free to share it. Share The First Thing About Disease This is why you avoid “healthcare” like the plague. Because, honestly, it’s not even what most people who are “awake” have started calling it, i.e. “Disease Care”. It’s actually Disease Producing. The first thing to know about disease is that what you see is not your problem. It’s usually the solution to your problem. Disease is at least two things: 1. a message and 2. a maneuver. It’s a message in at least two possible ways: direct and indirect. A direct message means that there’s a physical toxin and/or pathogen in some tissue of your body, and your immune system is fighting it off, rooting it out, which creates symptoms. Just as if criminals had taken your family hostage and a SWAT team had to come save them. They might try negotiating at first, but if things escalate and there’s no other choice they kick down your door and go capture or kill the bad guys. If you systematically refuse to allow SWAT to take care of these situations then criminals will start doing the same to more and more families throughout the city. Eventually other crime will explode as well. Lawlessness will reign and eventually you may have to bring in the military to get it under control. If you then prevent the military from doing the job, eventually you may have a full on revolution. If you still prevent the military from stepping in you lose the city, state or even the entire country. An indirect message means that there’s an emotional root cause issue, like childhood trauma that may be manifesting as an allergic disorder triggered by usually harmless items like common foods. In both cases the body isn’t making any mistakes, it’s responding appropriately to help you deal with the real root cause of your problem, which is hurting you physically or emotionally. It’s a maneuver in that the symptoms and signs themselves are helpful in mitigating the harm from the underlying root cause. Lab work which is almost universally misunderstood by modern medical practitioners and patients offers many examples. High ferritin levels, the storage form of iron, are usually due to inflammation or infection. So the high ferritin is not a problem to be fixed in and of itself. Many pathogens can make use of iron to hurt you, so the body locks it away from them, which raises ferritin. If you somehow force your body to lower ferritin, it would just make matters worse as you would be less well equipped to fight off the invading force. Out of range lab values are just secondary signs of your body doing the best possible thing for you in the situation you’re in. Reversing the helpful reaction to your problem may help with certain symptoms like fatigue due to anemia from low iron, but it doesn’t help you in the medium or long term, it only ends up harming you far more as the underlying problem proliferates and comes back to bite you harder. So, both mainstream and almost all of alternative medicine are way off-base and really just a false dichotomy. They both assume the body is doing the wrong thing because it's either broken or confused. It's not either. It's your first, best, and often only real physician. You have to get to the underlying, deeper layer of causes which are not physical or energetic, they’re psycho-spiritual, and they manifests the physical means of disease-making superficial physical causes like toxins, pathogens and lack of nutrients through the energetic weakening that is manifested in your physical organs, by depleting those organs of nutrients and making them susceptible to invasion by toxins and pathogens that cause disease. Which again is not a bad thing, because it's just a message pointing you in the direction of your real problem. Pain is Good Pain is the most important message, because it protects you from what would harm you which is another way of saying it keeps you alive. Because what harms in small quantities, kills in large doses. You can get a large dose all at once, or have it build up over the decades until it finally finishes you off, which is what happens to most people. Pain will begin as mild discomfort. A bit of reflux, occasional constipation, some rough menstrual periods, random headaches, mild allergies, etc. If you understand what’s going on you’ll pay attention, not cover it up with symptomatic medications, address the deeper root cause issues and get back on the right track. Pain is meant to course correct you. If you took off on a trans-Atlantic voyage with the right heading, but then you never again checked your instruments to be sure you were still on the right course, you might end up in South Africa instead of the south of France. Pain is feedback from your body and soul. It means you’re headed the wrong way. Check your instruments and get back on track. Thanks for reading Dr. Syed Haider! This post is public so feel free to share it. Share The Real Roots of Disease Consciousness comes first, and it manifests the physical world. Consciousness has a connection to the Divine, a sense that there’s something greater than itself, an ultimate creative force. Consciousness has various other aspects of itself like the ability to believe certain things about reality, be motivated to do things for itself, the ability to plan, the ability to feel emotions, the ability to balance the needs of disparate parts of itself, and finally the ability to manifest its various parts as energy and ultimately physical substance. Different “higher” aspects of self relate to different parts of the energetic and physical body. The heart balances between the organs. The liver relates to anger. The kidneys to fear. As mentioned above, when these or other emotions are imbalanced they place strain on their respective organs. Over time that strain wears down the organs, and as they get worn down they become less able to do their particular jobs. The organs also become less able to protect themselves from the buildup of toxins and from unusual proliferation of our own microbiome or invasion by foreign pathogens. The microbiome includes not only bacteria, but fungi, viruses, and may even include some parasites in some people. Fungi are nature’s toxin cleanup crews. They do the same inside our own bodies. When toxins build up they proliferate to bind, sequester and protect our tissues from them. Various other elements of the microbiome have their own reasons to proliferate on our behalf. Beneficial bacteria for example often aid tremendously in fighting off foreign pathogenic bacteria, something that might become necessary when the immune system within a particular tissue can no longer do its job adequately. The not so downside to all these maneuvers is that there will often be some uncomfortable side effects, or pain signals sent because of them. Focus on the Meaning of the Message To understand how to reverse disease and get truly healthy again, we have to know what not to do first. We can’t just focus on the superficial symptoms and signs. Everyone who's studied anything about alternative health probably understands that to some extent, but what most don’t understand is just how many things fall under the superficial category. Really everything physical is superficial, including all those “risk factors” that you’re warned about and urged to “control” like high blood pressure, high blood sugar, insulin resistance, obesity, and even “stress” itself. None of these are root causes. There’s really only one root cause. You are the root cause of not only all your illnesses, but of all your problems in life. You have to fix you before it’s too late. What that means is that imbalance at some level of your being will always be manifested as a problem of some sort in your life. As above, so below, as within, so without. This is a law of reality that must be manifested if our existence is to have any meaning. The purpose of existence is to better know ourselves, and thereby the Divine reality and incrementally perfect ourselves in order to draw nearer to it. The universe itself only manifests what we need in order for us to do so, which means it shows us our own faults in order that we may correct them. If we tend to be too angry, the universe and everything within it will respond to us in a certain way that will reveal that that excessive anger is a problem - e.g. by giving us various symptoms stemming from some form of liver dysfunction (or its downstream effects on other organs), or making our lives much more difficult than they would otherwise be. We may struggle to deal with the anger until perhaps we realize it’s actually based on fear of being harmed and lashing out against that perceived threat to protect ourselves. And we may struggle to deal with that fear until perhaps we realize that it’s based on a misconception about the nature of the universe and what’s in it, believing that what is manifested within it is even capable of harming or benefiting us of its own accord. At a more practical level, most people are afraid of other people, until they realize that those other people aren’t actually out to get them. That the threat they perceive from others is just a reflection of their own selves. That the sullen expressions or scowls they notice on other’s faces are just a reflection of their own expressions and feelings. What’s underneath the surface of others is ultimately a mystery but assuming the best of them produces the best interactions and outcomes. Share How to Heal Some animals just sit there like plants and whatever they need from the world comes to them. They don’t lift a finger or move an inch, yet they eat, drink and procreate. These strange creatures include sponges, anemones, corals, barnacles, and sea squirts (yes, these are all classified as animals). coral reef Coral is a strange animal Despite what you may think, human beings may also be numbered among them, though it’s certainly not our natural state. We’re meant to be creatures of action, and action is required for us to grow and change. Our spiritual, mental and emotional sides are deeply entwined with our energetic and physical bodies. What moves one, moves the other. And we’re the ones that move both. However it’s easier to move the physical than it is the energetic, emotional or intellectual. We can’t simply drift in the waves of this world and expect to do any meaningful work on our thoughts, emotions, and spirit. Interacting with others and with the events of our lives is what reveals us to ourselves. Changing how we interact is what shows us that we’ve actually grown and aren’t just fooling ourselves into thinking that we have. You can weep and beg forgiveness in the middle of the night for what you did wrong, but the only way to know for certain that you’ve actually changed is to be in a similar situation again and find out if you commit the same misdeed you did before. So the way to change is to do something different that you’re sure will work and keep score so you can’t lie to yourself. That’s why the first step in a real healing protocol is to get a plan of action from someone who really knows what they’re doing and can help you heal anything (that’s my own teacher and practice partner Hakim Shabaz, click below to learn more). My 5 Week Results Strangely enough right from day one I noticed a big improvement in mood, reactivity, and irritability. I was suddenly able to make headway on self-improvement, such as keeping score against myself in order to stop getting selfishly angry, i.e. stop acting like a spoiled 2 year old brat whenever things didn’t go my way. This must have been a placebo-type effect linked to finally deciding to make long overdue, big, hard, sustained changes - I committed to doing it strictly for at least 2 months straight (ensuring there would be no travel plans during that time necessitating skipping key protocol components). My skin started clearing up immediately and I started losing weight, which continued throughout at a rapid rate of about 0.7 pounds per day, for a total of about 25 pounds, which brought me down into the normal BMI range for the first time in years. My teeth felt much cleaner within days, almost all the plaque disappearing. Redness in my face went away quickly. I have a few patches of psoriasis which became 95% less inflamed and almost stopped scaling entirely within days. After a couple weeks the largest skin tag suddenly got inflamed, swelled and was tender for a couple days, then promptly shriveled up and just fell off. A week later a smaller one did the same. Around the same time I passed some roundworms and then started seeing the liver flukes in every bowel movement / enema (they look like floating white date pits, or thin cloves of garlic 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch long). Image These are the liver flukes. Mine all look whitish like the one on top. After 3 weeks I realized I was also probably passing hydatid cysts. Image (If instead of doing all that I had been impatient and just taken some anti-parasitic medication I might have killed so many parasites so fast that my small intestine and gallbladder may have become blocked requiring hospitalization and even surgery.) In the 3rd or 4th week I noticed that the urine flow had started improving almost all the time. In the 5th week I started noticing moments of greater clarity, and improved mental functioning, especially when in the hot bath, where I experienced a lot of creativity, perhaps because I get particularly relaxed inside. This was reminiscent of a period of self improvement I went through decades ago during med school when I got very lean for the first time in my life. What I noticed then and even more so now was that when you become less attached to things, and less wrapped up in yourself, you gain a significant number of IQ points, it feels like anywhere from 5-10+. Instead of going from upset to upset, and getting stuck in various outrage cycles throughout the day, you can dispassionately assess every situation like a word problem or simple riddle, and start to see how perceived problems usually have a very simple and straightforward solution which leaves you far better off than you were before the “problem” presented itself in your life. When you become more present you start seeing multiple moves ahead in every situation and become far more efficient, because you just have more headspace for life. These changes are related to decreasing brain inflammation. Thanks for reading Dr. Syed Haider! This post is public so feel free to share it. Share In the 5th week I also realized that I had slowed down, though this happened a lot earlier, probably near the very beginning. When I’m inflamed and stressed I often get this sense of urgency where I feel I need to rush everything, especially eating. I haven’t had any reflux or trouble getting to sleep. No sweet cravings. I just realized while writing this that the two most prominent lipomas have started shrinking, appearing to be about half as large as they used to be, which is not usually seen with simple weight loss. As the 5th week finished up I started passing what looked like puffed millet. Puffed Millet - Organic puffed millet Also what looked like chunks of bowel wall, but are probably what people refer to a “rope worms,” likely mucus deposits on the walls of the colon that are sloughing off, we think they’re likely remnants of microbial biofilms, and they’re routinely seen in all our patients who watch for them while following their protocols. An important point to note is that it’s not all a bed of roses. Part of healing usually requires dealing with some discomfort and even periods of symptom worsening. Before the parasite die off began there was a period of a couple days where I became nauseated and then on the 3rd day I projectile vomited after completing my morning green juice. Then as the parasite die-off started I got much more irritable, some mild dyspepsia cropped up, I had a couple nights of light sleep. The mental benefits I initially experienced didn’t progress and actually regressed a couple weeks later as more and more toxins began to be released. New mild rashes popped up on my neck, probably from head and neck toxins being flushed out. All these issues led to minor additions or alterations to my protocol and required close communication with Hakim Shabaz. We see similar issues frequently in patients who have significant whole body toxicity that has developed over decades. It may last for days or weeks at a time, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. In some patients microbial die off, especially of parasites, can lead to much worse, like severe pain, biliary and colonic blockages, infection from rotting matter that can’t be fully expelled from involved organs. Our patients don’t develop these since our. protocols are carefully designed to be gradual and not sudden, but many of our patients do develop severe paranoia. Much of the work of the protocol is meant to minimize this stress reaction from affecting patients too greatly, for example various calming herbs and breathing practices. When certain microbes, including parasites start to feel threatened they naturally release their own stress hormones, which mimic ours and have the same effects on us that our own do. As parasites begin to die their stress spikes intensely and can make us feel a sense of impending doom, as though we’re going to die. Hakim Shabaz often tells patients on the first visit to write a note to themselves for future reference: “I will reach a point where parasite die off will make me very angry at Hakim Shabaz and I will want to stop the protocol.” When it actually happens and patients are reminded of this seemingly silly task they had completed it can help kick them out of a growing spiral of despair. However many patients cheat on their protocols, which only serves to increase the likelihood their parasite die off will be particularly uncomfortable and perhaps not even as effective as it would otherwise be. That’s because we don’t need to just kill them, we need to shift the terrain so they don’t come back. And we need the body’s help to get into the biofilm where many of them hide. Medications alone often do not accomplish the task without careful adherence to the protocol which starves them of their usual nourishment. “Slow is Smooth, Smooth is Fast.” The famous Navy Seals mantra applies to most areas of life, including our health. When you take it slow things go smoothly, mistakes don’t happen, you don’t have to redo things over and over. You get it right the first time. And that makes things go quicker than if you were in a rush to begin with. Whether the journey is the destination or the destination is the destination, in either case doing it right matters. And right means you don’t rush it, because the reward for slogging through slowly compounds over time. As your brain gets less inflamed you sleep better despite sleeping less, your relationships improve, you accomplish more in less time with fewer resources. Your quality of life climbs. Rather than struggling to the top of a hill and not finding any path to climb higher, you learn to fly and take off in the direction of exponential hockey stick growth and change. Dr. Abdulrahman M. Aljamouss | The Hockey stick growth Everyone has toxins and pathogens in them contributing to ill health, but they have to be removed gradually since the pathways of elimination are only so large. It's like evacuating a city during a disaster. The roads can become completely blocked and then no one gets out. The body also needs to be nutritionally supported and the psyche intellectually and emotionally supported by reframing various aspects of life and addressing deeper root causes of illness, since toxins and pathogens are not really the root causes of disease. Root causes are found in the psyche and manifested in the form of energetic dysfunction, which further manifests as physical weakness, which leads to the persistence of toxins and pathogens which manifests the physical symptoms as the immune system attempts to root them out. Simply flushing toxins and killing pathogens will often resolve symptoms, but not the deeper causes, which means they will manifest themselves again in the same disease after some time, or in some new disease. Thanks for reading Dr. Syed Haider! This post is public so feel free to share it. Share Almost all modern medicine, whether mainstream or alternative, simply applies superficial band aid solutions to symptoms. This passes the buck to your future self with interest. A few months of focused effort can usually fix the deepest problems and pay dividends for decades. What I’m Doing My protocol is specific to me, though it’s possible others might benefit from it or something similar. I have seen that the protocols from Hakim Shabaz can vary widely depending on the specifics of a person’s health problems. Since the protocol is so time consuming and difficult for most people to commit to long enough to see its benefits, it pays to have the right personalized protocol right off the bat. Even if there were a broadly generalizable generic protocol it would still likely be missing one or a few ingredients specific to each person that could make all the difference in speeding up results. Generally speaking, as I see it, the approach to healing from any disease whatsoever involves the following steps that Hakim Shabaz’s protocols help to initiate: Believe strongly that you can get better and trigger the placebo effect. Committing to a difficult, time-consuming protocol helps greatly with this, because psychologically it requires some belief to even begin, but the doing also helps to create and strengthen the belief itself. This dynamic creates a positive feedback loop of strengthening belief the longer you continue. At the beginning or within the first few months come to understand and accept that every disease reflects the inner self in some way, and resolving it requires doing some work on that aspect of yourself. Change the physical to mitigate the symptoms and at the same time help shift your inward reality towards a healthy balanced state. At the physical level we do things like coffee enemas to help the body flush out toxins by opening up the detox pathways of the liver/gallbladder/intestinal complex, the lungs, the skin, and the kidneys. We take toxin binders like chlorella so that the toxins that are dumped into the intestines don’t just recirculate back into the bloodstream. We take antimicrobial compounds to help kill off pathogens. We supplement nutrients that are missing by natural means, which are inherently balanced, e.g. with organ meats and vegetable juicing. Throughout we aim to begin gently rather than harshly. We start with low dose mild antimicrobials so as not to shock the body or lead to rapid die-off which is very uncomfortable, and unhelpful at best, harmful at worst. Eventually begin changing the mental and emotional levels and finally resolving old traumas by reframing them rather than repeatedly remembering them within the same frame of reference and thereby re-traumatizing ourselves. This takes someone wise and well-versed in the ancient techniques of really effective psychotherapy and neural retraining. This isn’t just talk therapy, it’s much more effective and efficient if you’re willing to do it. Below you’ll find all the details of my comprehensive personal protocol, which along with a specific detox diet, various whole herbs, chlorine dioxide dosing, and certain simple Ayurvedic detox modalities, also includes links to a recipe for a homemade nutritional paste that helps improve detox of the liver, a homemade neck cream that helps detox the head, neck and brain, including the inner ears, and directions for practicing the Humming Bee Breath, which is particularly effective at discharging the toxic energy imbalances caused by emotional trauma, mental stress and even EMF radiation, a well as helping allay chronic irritability and anger. The complexity of this protocol and the time required to implement it daily is daunting, and many will balk, insisting that it can’t be that hard, there must be an easier way. Actually killing parasites is not that hard. Many people can take ivermectin and fenbendazole and natural herbs and extracts and they’ll find parasites in their stool and call it a day. The trouble is that the real problem is still there, and even if the parasites are all rooted out, they often come right back, because the terrain is still welcoming them in. But, the real reason deep healing requires so much effort is because of just how toxic our modern environment is, physically, emotionally, intellectually and spiritually. Our ancestors didn’t have to exert so much effort to just get to "normal.” A protocol like this only seems extreme if you don’t realize just how sick the entire planet has become, and that we’re immersed in that dirty fish bowl all the time. As far as difficulty level, spending 3+ hours a day for 6 months is easy mode. You know what's hard? Becoming disabled and dying early. Also hard: spending 20 years to become a neurosurgeon. If I told you that you had to spend 20 years and half a million dollars in schooling fees in order to heal you would be justified in saying that's hard. People need to finally put their health in perspective. You've been sold a bill of goods. Everyone wants a magic pill, but there is no magic pill. Something intense like what I’m about to describe is already the easiest, fastest way. Everything else has you going in circles or straight backwards while you fool yourself into believing you're making progress.

    Doctors are amazed by her incredible transformation! Find out how a single change in her diet turned everything around.

    82-Year-Old Woman Reverses Dementia Symptoms with This Simple Diet Change

    82-Year-Old Woman Reverses Dementia Symptoms with This Simple Diet Change
    After adopting a healthier diet, an 82-year-old woman who struggled with dementia and couldn’t even recognize her own son has astonishingly regained her memory.

    Sylvia’s memory and cognitive functions had deteriorated to the point where she was hospitalized, and her son, Mark Hatzer, had begun to fear the worst—that he was losing his mother to dementia.

    However, everything changed when Sylvia started consuming a diet rich in brain-boosting foods, including walnuts and blueberries. Today, the recipes she follows have become popular among Alzheimer’s patients.

    Her diet, which also includes spinach, oats, sweet potatoes, broccoli, kale, sunflower seeds, green tea, and dark chocolate, was developed by her and her son after noticing that dementia rates were much lower in Mediterranean countries.

    Mark shared their story:

    “When my mum was in the hospital, she believed it was a hotel—albeit the worst one she’d ever stayed in. She didn’t recognize me and even called the police, thinking she had been kidnapped. It was heartbreaking because, since my dad and brother died, it has just been the two of us. Overnight, our happy family life turned into a crisis.”

    After leaving the hospital, instead of following a typical medication regimen, Mark and his mother decided to try an alternative approach. They modeled their diet on Mediterranean eating habits, which are known for their cognitive benefits. Foods such as fish, blueberries, strawberries, Brazil nuts, and walnuts—all beneficial for the brain—became staples of their daily meals.

    Sylvia also engaged in cognitive exercises like puzzles and crosswords. Mark recalls:

    “It wasn’t an immediate transformation, but after a couple of months, she started remembering things like birthdays and became more alert and engaged. People assume that a dementia diagnosis means life is over, but there’s hope. Today, my mum looks ten years younger, and you wouldn’t even know she’d been through such a tough battle.”

    Their story highlights the remarkable resilience of the human body when given the right conditions to thrive. Increasing awareness of the causes of neurodegenerative diseases is key to combating them.

    The Link Between Alzheimer’s and Aluminum

    Research has shown a connection between Alzheimer’s disease and aluminum. Dr. Chris Exley, in an article on the topic, explains that individuals with Alzheimer’s often have significantly higher levels of aluminum in their brain tissue than people of the same age without the disease.

    This is particularly true for those who have been exposed to unusually high levels of aluminum through environmental factors or their workplaces, leading to an earlier onset of Alzheimer’s symptoms, sometimes as early as their fifties or sixties. Even higher aluminum levels have been found in individuals with familial Alzheimer’s disease, a rare genetic form that can manifest as early as in one’s thirties or forties.

    How to Support Brain Health and Lower the Risk of Alzheimer’s

    Fortunately, research suggests that certain lifestyle changes can reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s and even slow down or reverse its progression. Here’s how:

    Healthy Diet
    Alzheimer’s is linked to inflammation and insulin resistance, both of which impair communication between brain cells. To fight these issues, focus on a healthy, Mediterranean-style diet rich in fish, olive oil, beans, whole grains, and vegetables. Avoid sugary foods, refined carbs, and processed snacks loaded with hidden sugars.
    Social Engagement
    Staying socially active is crucial for brain health. Maintain regular, meaningful interactions with family and friends to stave off isolation, which can increase the risk of dementia. Join clubs, volunteer, or visit local senior centers to stay engaged.
    Mental Stimulation
    Mental exercises, like crosswords, puzzles, and strategy games, help stimulate the brain and can improve memory. Learning new skills or engaging in memory-based games is also highly beneficial.
    Regular Exercise
    Physical activity can reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer’s by up to 50%. It also helps preserve brain function in people who already have cognitive issues. Aim for 2-3 hours of moderate-intensity exercise each week, combining cardio with strength training.
    Stress Reduction
    Chronic stress can shrink the brain’s memory center and raise the risk of Alzheimer’s. Practice stress-reducing techniques such as yoga, meditation, deep breathing exercises, or simply walking in nature.
    Adequate Sleep
    Getting enough sleep is crucial for brain health. Many Alzheimer’s patients experience sleep disorders, and disrupted sleep might be a risk factor for the disease. Prioritize good sleep habits to help protect your brain.

    🧠 82-Year-Old Woman REVERSES Dementia Symptoms with THIS Simple Diet Change! 🧠 Doctors are amazed by her incredible transformation! 😱 Find out how a single change in her diet turned everything around. https://grandmaremedy.net/82-year-old-woman-reverses-dementia-symptoms-with-this-simple-diet-change/ 82-Year-Old Woman Reverses Dementia Symptoms with This Simple Diet Change 10 October 2024 grandmaremedy.net 82-Year-Old Woman Reverses Dementia Symptoms with This Simple Diet Change After adopting a healthier diet, an 82-year-old woman who struggled with dementia and couldn’t even recognize her own son has astonishingly regained her memory. Sylvia’s memory and cognitive functions had deteriorated to the point where she was hospitalized, and her son, Mark Hatzer, had begun to fear the worst—that he was losing his mother to dementia. However, everything changed when Sylvia started consuming a diet rich in brain-boosting foods, including walnuts and blueberries. Today, the recipes she follows have become popular among Alzheimer’s patients. Her diet, which also includes spinach, oats, sweet potatoes, broccoli, kale, sunflower seeds, green tea, and dark chocolate, was developed by her and her son after noticing that dementia rates were much lower in Mediterranean countries. Mark shared their story: “When my mum was in the hospital, she believed it was a hotel—albeit the worst one she’d ever stayed in. She didn’t recognize me and even called the police, thinking she had been kidnapped. It was heartbreaking because, since my dad and brother died, it has just been the two of us. Overnight, our happy family life turned into a crisis.” After leaving the hospital, instead of following a typical medication regimen, Mark and his mother decided to try an alternative approach. They modeled their diet on Mediterranean eating habits, which are known for their cognitive benefits. Foods such as fish, blueberries, strawberries, Brazil nuts, and walnuts—all beneficial for the brain—became staples of their daily meals. Sylvia also engaged in cognitive exercises like puzzles and crosswords. Mark recalls: “It wasn’t an immediate transformation, but after a couple of months, she started remembering things like birthdays and became more alert and engaged. People assume that a dementia diagnosis means life is over, but there’s hope. Today, my mum looks ten years younger, and you wouldn’t even know she’d been through such a tough battle.” See also: Man Slows Alzheimer’s with This Surprising Daily Habit—Doctors Are Stunned! Their story highlights the remarkable resilience of the human body when given the right conditions to thrive. Increasing awareness of the causes of neurodegenerative diseases is key to combating them. The Link Between Alzheimer’s and Aluminum Research has shown a connection between Alzheimer’s disease and aluminum. Dr. Chris Exley, in an article on the topic, explains that individuals with Alzheimer’s often have significantly higher levels of aluminum in their brain tissue than people of the same age without the disease. This is particularly true for those who have been exposed to unusually high levels of aluminum through environmental factors or their workplaces, leading to an earlier onset of Alzheimer’s symptoms, sometimes as early as their fifties or sixties. Even higher aluminum levels have been found in individuals with familial Alzheimer’s disease, a rare genetic form that can manifest as early as in one’s thirties or forties. How to Support Brain Health and Lower the Risk of Alzheimer’s Fortunately, research suggests that certain lifestyle changes can reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s and even slow down or reverse its progression. Here’s how: Healthy Diet Alzheimer’s is linked to inflammation and insulin resistance, both of which impair communication between brain cells. To fight these issues, focus on a healthy, Mediterranean-style diet rich in fish, olive oil, beans, whole grains, and vegetables. Avoid sugary foods, refined carbs, and processed snacks loaded with hidden sugars. Social Engagement Staying socially active is crucial for brain health. Maintain regular, meaningful interactions with family and friends to stave off isolation, which can increase the risk of dementia. Join clubs, volunteer, or visit local senior centers to stay engaged. Mental Stimulation Mental exercises, like crosswords, puzzles, and strategy games, help stimulate the brain and can improve memory. Learning new skills or engaging in memory-based games is also highly beneficial. Regular Exercise Physical activity can reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer’s by up to 50%. It also helps preserve brain function in people who already have cognitive issues. Aim for 2-3 hours of moderate-intensity exercise each week, combining cardio with strength training. Stress Reduction Chronic stress can shrink the brain’s memory center and raise the risk of Alzheimer’s. Practice stress-reducing techniques such as yoga, meditation, deep breathing exercises, or simply walking in nature. Adequate Sleep Getting enough sleep is crucial for brain health. Many Alzheimer’s patients experience sleep disorders, and disrupted sleep might be a risk factor for the disease. Prioritize good sleep habits to help protect your brain.

  • Prevent Cancer & Boost Health: The Most Alkalizing Superfood You NEED to Eat Every Day
    27 September 2024 grandmaremedy.net
    Prevent Cancer & Boost Health: The Most Alkalizing Superfood You NEED to Eat Every Day
    Did you know cancer cells can’t survive in an alkaline environment? The key to preventing not only cancer but also a whole host of health problems lies in the state of your body’s pH. And there’s one superfood that stands above the rest for boosting alkalinity—wheatgrass.

    Wheatgrass is more than just a trendy ingredient in green juices. It’s packed with nutrients that could transform your health from the inside out. Imagine improving your body’s pH, detoxifying your liver, and supercharging your immune system—all by adding this simple ingredient to your daily routine. Keep reading to discover why you need to make wheatgrass a staple in your diet and an easy recipe to start reaping its benefits today.

    What is Wheatgrass?

    Wheatgrass, the young green shoots of the wheat plant (Triticum aestivum), is a highly nutritious superfood. Commonly grown in the U.S. and Europe, wheatgrass is simple and affordable to grow at home. Just a week after sprouting the seeds, you can start harvesting this health-boosting plant. Its taste can be quite bitter, but it is at its sweetest when harvested in low light, just after the sprouting stage.

    When growing wheatgrass, make sure it’s in a well-ventilated space to prevent mold, which can grow when roots are bound too tightly in moist soil. Mold can lead to health concerns, so try to plant the seeds with some space in between, avoid over-watering, and keep the area airy.

    Nutritional Benefits of Wheatgrass

    Wheatgrass is packed with essential vitamins and minerals, some of which act as powerful antioxidants. These include:

    Vitamins A and E
    A full spectrum of B vitamins
    Iron
    Zinc
    Selenium
    Magnesium
    Calcium
    Potassium
    Sodium
    It’s also a complete protein source. In fact, just 2 ounces of wheatgrass juice contains the nutritional equivalent of 5 pounds of organic, raw vegetables. This means consuming wheatgrass regularly can provide your body with an abundance of essential nutrients and antioxidants.

    Why Wheatgrass is a Superfood

    Cleanses and Detoxifies: Wheatgrass helps detoxify the liver and bloodstream, ridding your body of toxins and environmental pollutants.
    Fights Cancer: Wheatgrass contains cancer-fighting enzymes, like Superoxide Dismutase, which help neutralize free radicals and prevent cell damage. While we are on this topic, did you know that dandelion root extract was found to kill leukemia cells, prostate cancer cells and chemo-resistant melanoma? Read more about it here.
    Rich in Chlorophyll: The high chlorophyll content in wheatgrass helps heal and oxygenate your body. It boosts the oxygen supply to your blood, promoting improved brain function and overall health.
    Balances pH Levels: Maintaining a balanced pH level in your body is crucial for optimal health. Wheatgrass helps neutralize acidity, making your body more alkaline, which is essential for preventing illness.
    Repairs DNA: Wheatgrass contains enzymes like P4-D1 and D1-G1, which help repair damaged DNA, especially from radiation exposure.
    Why Alkalinity is Important

    For your body to function properly, your blood pH needs to stay between 7.35 and 7.45. Many of the foods we eat can create an acidic environment in the body, making it harder for your body to maintain that balance. Wheatgrass is one of the most effective natural foods for keeping your body alkaline, helping to counteract this acidity and keep you healthier.

    How to Incorporate Wheatgrass into Your Diet

    One of the easiest ways to get the benefits of wheatgrass is by juicing it. Juicing pre-digests the nutrients for you, making them easier for your body to absorb. If you’re not a fan of the bitter taste of wheatgrass, try mixing it into smoothies to improve the flavor.

    Here’s a simple recipe to get you started:

    Pineapple and Coconut Green Smoothie with Wheatgrass

    Ingredients:

    4 oz fresh wheatgrass juice
    2 cups of cubed pineapple
    4 oz coconut water
    2 small peeled bananas
    1 cup baby spinach
    Instructions:

    Pour the fresh wheatgrass juice and coconut water into a blender.
    Add the pineapple, bananas, and spinach.
    Blend on high for 30 seconds until smooth.
    For the best results, consume the wheatgrass juice fresh—within 15 minutes of juicing—to maximize its nutritional benefits.

    Wheatgrass is one of the most alkalizing and nutrient-dense foods you can incorporate into your daily routine. Whether you juice it, blend it, or add it to smoothies, it’s an excellent way to detoxify, promote alkalinity, and provide your body with a wide range of essential nutrients. With its high antioxidant content and numerous health benefits, adding wheatgrass to your diet can be a powerful step toward improving your overall health.

  • Blocked Arteries? Watch Out for These 5 Silent Warning Signs!

    https://grandmaremedy.net/blocked-arteries-watch-out-for-these-5-silent-warning-signs/

    Your body might be trying to tell you something crucial! Don’t miss these hidden symptoms that could mean your arteries are in trouble.


    Blocked Arteries? Watch Out for These 5 Silent Warning Signs!
    10 October 2024 grandmaremedy.net
    Blocked Arteries? Watch Out for These 5 Silent Warning Signs!
    Blood clots are gel-like masses that form in the body to stop excessive bleeding after an injury. Plasma proteins and platelets work together to form clots, which typically dissolve as the injury heals. However, sometimes clots can develop inside veins or arteries without any injury, which can lead to serious conditions like stroke or pulmonary embolism. These clots don’t dissolve on their own and require medical intervention.

    In the U.S., stroke claims over 130,000 lives each year, with 87% of all strokes classified as ischemic—caused by blockages in the blood flow to the brain. Strokes are the leading cause of long-term disability.

    Blood clots are generally classified into two types: arterial and venous.

    Arterial Blood Clots

    Arterial clots occur within the arteries, obstructing the flow of oxygenated blood to vital organs. Most commonly, these clots form in the legs and feet but can also occur in the brain, leading to a stroke or heart attack. Symptoms of arterial clots include:

    Cold limbs (arms or legs)
    Weakness in the affected area
    Discoloration or pale skin
    Muscle cramps or pain
    Cold sensation in fingers or hands
    Numbness or tingling in the arm or leg
    Common risk factors for arterial clots include obesity, smoking, diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and a sedentary lifestyle.

    Venous Blood Clots

    Venous clots tend to form more slowly, often following surgery or trauma. These clots are classified into three main types: deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), and superficial venous thrombosis.

    DVT typically forms in the lower legs, thighs, or pelvis, but can also develop in the brain, liver, arms, intestines, and kidneys. PE occurs when a blood clot travels to the lungs, which can be life-threatening. Superficial venous thrombosis forms near the surface of the skin, causing severe pain. Symptoms of venous clots include:

    Vein tenderness or hardness when touched
    Red, inflamed skin around the affected area
    Pain and swelling over the affected vein
    General Symptoms of Blood Clots Based on Location

    The symptoms of blood clots vary depending on their location in the body. Common symptoms include:

    Abdomen: Intense abdominal pain, diarrhea, vomiting
    Brain: Dizziness, sudden headaches, facial, arm, or leg weakness, difficulty speaking, vision issues
    Lung: Sharp chest pain, rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath, coughing up blood
    Arms or Legs: Gradual or sudden pain, swelling, tenderness, warmth
    Heart: Chest discomfort, shortness of breath, nausea, light-headedness, sweating
    When to Seek Emergency Care

    According to the Mayo Clinic, it’s crucial to seek immediate medical attention if you experience any of the following symptoms:

    Coughing up blood
    Rapid heartbeat
    Lightheadedness
    Chest pain or tightness
    Pain radiating to the shoulder, arm, back, or jaw
    Sudden weakness or numbness in the face, arms, or legs
    Sudden difficulty speaking or understanding speech
    Vision changes
    For less urgent cases, consult a doctor if you experience swelling, redness, or pain in an arm or leg.

    Preventing Blood Clots and Reducing Stroke Risk

    Making simple lifestyle changes can significantly lower your risk of blood clots and stroke. According to an NPR article, researchers found that even modest improvements in lifestyle can dramatically reduce stroke risk. In fact, improving lifestyle factors like diet, exercise, and weight management by just one point on a 14-point scale can reduce the risk of stroke by 8%.

    To help prevent blood clots, consider the following tips:

    Avoid smoking, which significantly increases clot risk
    Exercise regularly and stretch your legs after sitting for extended periods
    Avoid GMO foods, sugars, processed foods, artificial sweeteners, trans fats, and refined carbs
    Limit the use of hormone, blood pressure, and cancer medications that can raise clot risk
    Natural Blood Thinners and Supplements

    Incorporating the following natural remedies into your diet may help reduce blood clot risk:

    Vitamin C: A potent antioxidant that supports vascular health
    Natural Antibiotics: Foods like onions, garlic, and olive oil can help prevent thrombosis
    Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Found in fish, walnuts, and pumpkin seeds, these fats support heart health
    Vitamin E: Prevents oxidation and can be found in avocados, almonds, green leafy vegetables, broccoli, and kiwi
    Ginkgo Biloba: Reduces fibrin levels, which are crucial in clot formation

  • Darkfield Microscopy of Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Chivas Regal and Beer
    And a look at distilled water. It's mostly good news

    Professor Anita Baxas,MD

    After examining water from different sources, I turned to testing my favorite Californian Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc from Chile, Chivas Regal Scotch Whiskey and Budweiser Beer. The good news is that the Chardonnay and Chivas are the cleanest drinks under the microscope. No hydrogels, no fibers and no bacteria. The Sauvignon Blanc had structures that look like microchips but it turns out they are probably crystals. The Budweiser beer too had some structures that could be hydrogels.


    Here is Chardonnay:


    The blurry circles are out of focus artifacts baked into the slide. The focus is on the level of the liquid as I could see it flowing. As you can see, there is nothing to be seen in the liquid.

    Here is Chivas Regal:


    There is absolutely nothing to be seen here. The image below shows few glowing white dots that may be tiny sediments that weren’t filtered out or crystals that formed over time as this bottle has been open sitting in my bar for many years.


    Following is what I found in Sauvignon Blanc from Chile.





    These structures look like microchips, but they may just be crystals. I found this information about wine crystals:

    Most of us have experienced opening what promises to be a phenomenal bottle of wine, only to be surprised by small crystals on the cork or particles suspended in the wine. Don’t panic—those crystals are called tartrates and they are simply a sign of how the wine was made. They are harmless to you and do not affect wine quality. In fact, tartrates in wine often indicate a higher quality wine. Tartrates—also affectionately called “wine diamonds” —are formed from tartaric acid, which is naturally occurring in all wines and provides structure, balance, and flavor.

    What are tartrates?

    Tartrate crystals, also known as wine crystals, are crystalline deposits of potassium bitartrate that can form in wine during fermentation and aging. Tartrates in wine develop when tartaric acid binds with potassium under cold conditions.

    Let’s be geeky for a minute

    What is the story with acid in wine? Tartaric acid is one of three main acids found in wine grapes alongside malic and citric acids. Each type of acid plays a key role in the wine production process and contributes different flavors and textures to the end wine. While malic acid does contribute to the aromas of a wine, it is more known for its role during the winemaking process when the winemaker opts to include malolactic fermentation; in this process, the stronger malic acid is converted into the softer, smoother lactic acid. On the other hand, tartaric acid is arguably the most important acid in wine due to the prominent role it plays in maintaining the chemical stability of the wine, the color, and influencing the taste of the finished product.

    During the fermentation and barrel aging process, less than half of the tartaric acid present in a wine will settle out and bind with lees, pulp debris, and precipitated tannins and pigments. The majority of the tartaric acid will stay soluble throughout the production process. The remaining tartaric acid in a wine is the primary acid you taste, and is essential to the final mouthfeel and balance, adding an additional layer of complexity to a wine.

    From: https://www.stonestreetwines.com/understanding_tartrates_crystals_in_wine_effects_of_cold_stabilization.html

    The Sauvignon Blanc is definitely of a higher quality than the Chardonnay which could explain why the Chardonnay didn’t have any crystals.

    I also examined a Budweiser Beer from a pre-Covid glass bottle. It had some structures in it that might be hydrogels. There were a lot of moving bacteria which is normal for beer. The following images are at 1600x magnification.




    In brightfield there were two fibers that don’t look like fungi (Saccharomyces) to make beer. It’s not always possible to determine what we see under a microscope as it doesn’t come with a chemical analysis.



    To the delight of many wine and scotch afficionados it seems that wine and scotch are safe to drink in regards to being free of hydrogels. Cheers!

    Distilled Water

    Some readers asked me to check distilled water. I bought a gallon of the only brand our grocery store had on hand, Crystal and examined it:


    It had foreign material in it that really isn’t supposed to be in distilled water. I don’t think they are hydrogels though as there are no active quantum dots inside the structures.



    The out of focus circles are etched into the slide. The focus is on the liquid level, not the slide level.

    This video below shows a lot of bacteria in the sample. To ensure that there was no contamination from the slide or cover slip, I checked a fresh set of slides and cover slips without any sample just with the oil on the condenser to ensure it wasn’t the oil that was contaminated. They all checked out clean. I redid the test after disinfecting a new slide and cover slip and it again showed bacteria in the sample. It also showed a few very bright dots roaming around which could be larger bacteria. In any case this isn’t water I would want to consume.

    I can’t check self made distilled water as I have no equipment to distill water. I also don’t have a “still” to make alcohol (just joking).

    Note to readers in the UK: Plaquex therapy will be available in the UK probably by the end of October. The clinic will also be introducing detox treatments for the Covid jabs at a later date. Once the clinic begins offering Plaquex, I will post it on this Substack with the contact information.

    Book Store: www.anitabaxasmd.com
    Books for UK orders are shipped from the UK, US orders are shipped from the US.

    Note about your comments: I read them all and I appreciate your questions and suggestions. Unfortunately, the comments have been taking up more and more of my limited time which is why I decided not to respond to them any more as I’m doing this research besides my regular work (the one that pays the bills), advising the detox clinic (for free) that will open in about a week and taking care of my little sister who has Down Syndrome as well as my household, vegetable and fruit garden.

In fact, tartrates in wine often indicate a higher quality wine. Tartrates—also affectionately called “wine diamonds” —are formed from tartaric acid, which is naturally occurring in all wines and provides structure, balance, and flavor. What are tartrates? Tartrate crystals, also known as wine crystals, are crystalline deposits of potassium bitartrate that can form in wine during fermentation and aging. Tartrates in wine develop when tartaric acid binds with potassium under cold conditions. Let’s be geeky for a minute What is the story with acid in wine? Tartaric acid is one of three main acids found in wine grapes alongside malic and citric acids. Each type of acid plays a key role in the wine production process and contributes different flavors and textures to the end wine. While malic acid does contribute to the aromas of a wine, it is more known for its role during the winemaking process when the winemaker opts to include malolactic fermentation; in this process, the stronger malic acid is converted into the softer, smoother lactic acid. On the other hand, tartaric acid is arguably the most important acid in wine due to the prominent role it plays in maintaining the chemical stability of the wine, the color, and influencing the taste of the finished product. During the fermentation and barrel aging process, less than half of the tartaric acid present in a wine will settle out and bind with lees, pulp debris, and precipitated tannins and pigments. The majority of the tartaric acid will stay soluble throughout the production process. The remaining tartaric acid in a wine is the primary acid you taste, and is essential to the final mouthfeel and balance, adding an additional layer of complexity to a wine. From: https://www.stonestreetwines.com/understanding_tartrates_crystals_in_wine_effects_of_cold_stabilization.html The Sauvignon Blanc is definitely of a higher quality than the Chardonnay which could explain why the Chardonnay didn’t have any crystals. I also examined a Budweiser Beer from a pre-Covid glass bottle. It had some structures in it that might be hydrogels. There were a lot of moving bacteria which is normal for beer. The following images are at 1600x magnification. In brightfield there were two fibers that don’t look like fungi (Saccharomyces) to make beer. It’s not always possible to determine what we see under a microscope as it doesn’t come with a chemical analysis. To the delight of many wine and scotch afficionados it seems that wine and scotch are safe to drink in regards to being free of hydrogels. Cheers! Distilled Water Some readers asked me to check distilled water. I bought a gallon of the only brand our grocery store had on hand, Crystal and examined it: It had foreign material in it that really isn’t supposed to be in distilled water. I don’t think they are hydrogels though as there are no active quantum dots inside the structures. The out of focus circles are etched into the slide. The focus is on the liquid level, not the slide level. This video below shows a lot of bacteria in the sample. To ensure that there was no contamination from the slide or cover slip, I checked a fresh set of slides and cover slips without any sample just with the oil on the condenser to ensure it wasn’t the oil that was contaminated. They all checked out clean. I redid the test after disinfecting a new slide and cover slip and it again showed bacteria in the sample. It also showed a few very bright dots roaming around which could be larger bacteria. In any case this isn’t water I would want to consume. I can’t check self made distilled water as I have no equipment to distill water. I also don’t have a “still” to make alcohol (just joking). Note to readers in the UK: Plaquex therapy will be available in the UK probably by the end of October. The clinic will also be introducing detox treatments for the Covid jabs at a later date. Once the clinic begins offering Plaquex, I will post it on this Substack with the contact information.

Note about your comments: I read them all and I appreciate your questions and suggestions. Unfortunately, the comments have been taking up more and more of my limited time which is why I decided not to respond to them any more as I’m doing this research besides my regular work (the one that pays the bills), advising the detox clinic (for free) that will open in about a week and taking care of my little sister who has Down Syndrome as well as my household, vegetable and fruit garden. https://anitabaxasmd.substack.com/p/darkfield-microscopy-of-chardonnay?triedRedirect=true

    Israel killed at least 28 people in the Gaza Strip Sunday.

    At least four Palestinians were killed and several others injured in an Israeli airstrike on the Umm al-Fahm School in the town of Beit Lahia, which serves to shelter displaced civilians in the northern Gaza Strip.
    The Lebanese health ministry has reported that Israeli air strikes on Sunday killed at least 109 individuals and left 364 others wounded across the country.

    An entire family of 17 members was wiped out by an Israeli airstrike on Sunday in the town of Zboud, in the Bekaa Valley in eastern Lebanon, Lebanese media said.
    In Yemen, at least four people were killed and 49 others injured in Israeli airstrikes on the western city of Al Hudaydah on Sunday, the Houthi group said.

    Around 17,000 children killed in Israeli war on Gaza, Palestinian authorities say

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    Around 17,000 Palestinian children have been killed in Israel’s ongoing war on the Gaza Strip since last October, according to local authorities on Sunday.

    “Around 25,973 Palestinian children now live in Gaza without one or both parents due to the Israeli aggression,” Ismail al-Thawabta, who heads Gaza’s government media office, told Anadolu.

    He said at least 16,859 children, including 171 infants, have been killed in Israeli attacks since Oct. 7, 2023.

    The UN Children’s Fund (UNICEF) has repeatedly warned that “Gaza’s children have endured unimaginable horrors” under relentless Israeli attacks.

    Gaza: Israel’s destruction of agricultural land is expression of its insistence on committing genocide

    Euro Med Monitor reports:

    Israel has once again destroyed hundreds of dunams of agricultural land, depriving Palestinians in the northern Gaza Strip of agricultural land and resources vital to survival, all in support of its illegal blockade of the Strip and tight restrictions on the entry of food supplies for almost a full year. This is an expression of Israel’s insistence on committing genocide against Palestinians in the enclave.

    Israel has forced over 75% of agricultural land in the Gaza Strip from the Palestinian people’s hands, either by isolating it in preparation for illegally annexing it to its military “buffer zone” or by bulldozing or otherwise damaging it, thereby destroying the Strip’s supply of fruits, vegetables, and meat.

    This destruction is part of a larger Israeli plan that dates back to last October. Under this plan, Israeli forces have worked to eliminate almost 80% of the agricultural land in the Gaza Strip from use by Palestinians. Israel has done this either by isolating it in preparation for its forcible annexation to the so-called “buffer zone” or by bulldozing or destroying it by other means, such as bombardment—all of which are in violation of international law.

    According to the Euro-Med Monitor field team, Israeli forces stormed the area of Al-Shimaa in Beit Lahia, northern Gaza, early on Tuesday morning (25 September 2024). Accompanied by military bulldozers, the forces began their bulldozing operations, destroying more than 500 dunums of newly replanted agricultural land, which was supposed to sustain the needs of the people living in northern Gaza, who are subject to an arbitrary siege and systematic starvation by Israel.

    The Israeli destruction of these agricultural lands, the majority of which were filled with eggplants, reflects Israel’s insistence on preventing the Palestinian people from depending on the region’s agricultural food basket during a period when sufficient supplies of vegetables and other foods are being kept out of the northern Gaza Strip. This has led to a severe famine, to the point where a significant portion of the people in the north have been forced to eat tree leaves and bake ground-up animal feed instead of flour.

    Palestinian security in Gaza says spying devices found in displacement camps

    Middle East Monitor reports:

    The Palestinian security services in Gaza have in recent days seized Israeli spying equipment planted in a shelter for displaced families in the southern Gaza Strip, a Palestinian resistance media platform reported on its Telegram channel yesterday.

    The platform quoted a security officer as saying that “the [Israeli] occupation intelligence had disguised the seized spying devices with different shapes, so they appear as part of the surrounding and natural environment including in the form of a rock.”

    The officer suggested the Israeli intelligence planted the spying devices via Quadcopter drones, calling on everyone “not to tamper with any suspicious devices and to contact the security officers immediately.”

    From Gaza to Lebanon: Israel’s Bombing Campaign Backed by Media Propaganda

    MintPress News reports:

    Western corporate media outlets, including the BBC, CNN, and The New York Times, have been working overtime to justify Israel’s recent assault on Lebanon, which claimed the lives of approximately 600 people in a single day. These reports have repeatedly claimed that the Israeli strikes were targeting “Hezbollah positions,” an assertion that has been widely echoed without substantial scrutiny.

    Israel’s large-scale onslaught against civilian areas throughout Lebanon, which began on Monday, was covered by Western corporate media as “strikes on Hezbollah.”

    CNN’s story on the first day of the assault, after around 500 people had been killed across Lebanon, was titled, “Israeli Strikes Targeting Hezbollah Kill Hundreds Across Lebanon.” The New York Times set up a live events feed labeled “Israel Strikes Hezbollah Targets in Lebanon.” Even Reuters and the Associated Press, two of the most reputable Western news providers, framed the events as an escalation from “both sides,” covering Israel’s attack on Hezbollah.


    A Reuters article published Tuesday opens with a telling lede: “An Israeli airstrike on Beirut killed a senior Hezbollah commander on Tuesday as cross-border rocket attacks by both sides increased fears of a full-fledged war in the Middle East, and Lebanon said only Washington could help end the fighting.”

    Israel has made no secret of the fact that it is targeting civilians, as demonstrated by its release of a CGI video showing mockups of Lebanese villages, where missiles are allegedly stored in homes. Despite this, much of the Western media has yet to acknowledge these admissions.

    Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu dispelled any remaining doubt when he delivered a message in English to the people of Lebanon in which he claimed, “Hezbollah has been using you as human shields.” He further stated, “They’ve placed rockets in your living rooms” and “missiles in your garage.”

    Garbage situation in Gaza is catastrophic

    Various agencies report:

    UNRWA, the United Nations group serving Palestinian refugees, says: Mountains of garbage are piling up in Gaza middle areas as sewage leaks onto streets. Families have no choice but to live beside the accumulated waste, exposed to the reek and the threat of a looming health disaster. Sanitary and living conditions across Gaza are inhumane.

    According to ReliefWeb, the waste management system in Gaza, already limited before the war, has now completely collapsed as collection vehicles have been destroyed and access to official landfills is refused by the Israeli military.

    Waste attracts rodents and insects resulting in the spread of infectious diseases such as cholera or skin diseases, while waste burning, a disposal method that locals use to manage the current emergency, worsens air pollution which in turn can result in further respiratory problems. People, many of whom are children, scavenging waste for food and sustenance, face additional risks from hazardous materials, which include medical waste and industrial chemicals.

    There are also growing indications that conflict pollution is risked with the spread of antimicrobial resistance, a development that can deepen the medical health crisis.

    Large waste dumps are also a threat to the soil and groundwater, as leachate, a toxic mix that spills from the waste, seeps into the land and affects groundwater, while in the long-term, increased methane release from landfills contributes to an increase of greenhouse gas emissions.

    Lebanon says around 1 million people displaced due to Israeli attacks

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    Lebanon’s caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati said Sunday that around one million people have been displaced due to Israeli attacks, marking the largest wave of displacement in the country’s history.

    “Lebanon is experiencing the largest wave of displacement in its history,” he told a press conference following a meeting of the government’s emergency committee in Beirut.

    “Our priority is to stop the ongoing Israeli aggression through continued diplomatic efforts. We have no other choice,” he noted.

    Mikati also reaffirmed Lebanon’s commitment to United Nations Security Council Resolution 1701, which calls for a cessation of hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah.

    Israel’s state comptroller accuses army of obstructing investigations into Oct. 7 failures

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    Israeli State Comptroller Matanyahu Englman accused the military on Sunday of hindering investigations into the failures that led to the Oct. 7 Hamas attack.

    “No external body has shown objectivity in examining the failures,” Englman said during a conference by Israeli media outlets The Jerusalem Post, Maariv and Walla.

    He said his office is conducting a series of investigations related to the failures that led to the Oct. 7 attack.

    “We are nearing completion of this report, but to finalize it, we need to meet with three individuals in the military,” Englman added.

    He emphasized that Army Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi believes that the State Comptroller’s office should not intervene in military issues, declaring him “wrong.”

    The State Comptroller’s office is Israel’s central institution for overseeing various state agencies to ensure public financial accountability.

    US senator confirms Israel used US one ton bombs in Nasrallah strike

    Reuters reports:

    The bomb that Israel used to kill Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah in Beirut last week was an American-made guided weapon, a U.S. senator said on Sunday.

    Mark Kelly, chair of the Senate Armed Services Airland Subcommittee, said Israel used a 2,000-lb (900-kg) Mark 84 series bomb, during an interview with NBC. His statement marks the first U.S. indication of what weapon had been used.

    “We see more use of guided munitions, JDAMs, and we continue to provide those weapons,” Kelly said, using an abbreviation that stands for Joint Direct Attack Munitions. “That 2,000-pound bomb that was used, that’s a Mark 84 series bomb, to take out Nasrallah,” he said.

    The Israeli military said on Saturday it had eliminated Nasrallah in a strike on the group’s central command headquarters in Beirut’s southern suburbs.

    The Israeli military has declined to comment on what weapons were used in the attack. The Pentagon was not immediately available for comment.

    JDAMs convert a standard unguided bomb using fins and a GPS guidance system into a guided weapon.

    AL JAZEERA ADDS: Israel media says about 85 so-called “bunker-buster” bombs were used in the attack on Hasan Nasrallah.

    Also known as “ground penetration munition”, these missiles burrow deep into the ground before they detonate.

    They have the power to destroy underground facilities and reinforced concrete buildings.

    Washington’s failure to condemn Israel’s pager terrorism “can only be called racist”

    Ralph Nader writes in Common Dreams:

    Furtively booby-trapping a consumer product like a pager or two-way radio opens a new phase of warfare. This savagery prompted Leon Panetta, former director of the CIA and former secretary of defense, in an interview on the CBS “Sunday Morning” news show to charge Israel with “terrorism.” No prominent national security figure has ever assailed Israel this way. Herewith his words:

    The ability to be able to place an explosive in technology that is very prevalent these days. And turn it into a war of terror. Really, a war of terror. This is something new.

    I don’t think there’s any question that it’s a form of terrorism…This is going right into the supply chain, right into the supply chain. And when you have terror going into the supply chain, it makes people ask the question, what the hell is next?

    Panetta would never have uttered these words without the concurrence of the CIA and the Department of Defense. Still no consequences for Netanyahu by the U.S. government.

    Netanyahu has made the push button a trigger for mayhem and murder—acts of large-scale terrorism. He and his predecessors have always characterized offensive acts violating the laws of war as “acceptable” defensive tactics.

    The supine Congress and White House regularly rubber-stamp their violations of several U.S. laws on behalf of the Israeli government. (See the letter sent to John Kirby on September 12, 2024).

    Consider the aftermath. No denunciation by U.S. President Biden, Secretary of State Antony Blinken, or Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin.

    Alarmingly, there were no editorials in the following week criticizing Netanyahu in The Washington Post and The New York Times.

    Imagine if Hezbollah did this to Israeli society. The devaluation of Palestinian and Lebanese lives can only be called racist.

    U.S. blowback analysts are apprehensive about the spread of Israeli-style “red button” explosives and the ingenious, and ever-cheaper armed drones. They see such technologies as potential threats within the U.S.

    Such is the peril of nations whose leaders wage constant profitable, preventable wars and decline to wage muscular peace with comparable determination.

    Pope says Israel’s bombings in Lebanon, Gaza ‘immoral’

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    On Sunday, the pope was asked about Israel’s targeted killing of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in Friday’s strike on Beirut, which led to many casualties and reduced several buildings to rubble.

    “Every day I call the parish of Gaza. More than 600 people are there, inside the parish and the college, and they tell me about the things that are happening, including the cruelties that are occurring there,” he told journalists.

    “[D]efense must always be proportionate to the attack,” he added.

    “When there is something disproportionate, a domineering tendency that goes beyond morality is evident,” the pope said.

    “A country that, with its forces, does these things—I’m talking about any country—that does these things in such a “superlative” way, these are immoral actions,” he added.

    “Even in war, there is morality to be safe-guarded. War is immoral, but the rules of war indicate some morality. But when this is not respected, you can see—as we say in Argentina—the “bad blood” of these things.”

    Jared Kushner says Israel must ‘finish the job’ in Lebanon

    Al Jazeera reports:

    Jared Kushner, who served as a senior adviser during former US President Donald Trump’s tenure in the White House, has said calling for a ceasefire in Lebanon is “wrong”.

    In a post on X, Kushner said Israel “cannot afford now to not finish the job” and dismantle Hezbollah completely.“They will never get another chance. After the brilliant, rapid-fire tactical successes of the pagers, radios, and targeting of leadership, Hezbollah’s massive weapon cache is unguarded and unmanned,” said Kushner, who is also the Republican candidate’s son-in-law.
    He added that the “right move” for the US is to allow Israel to “finish the job. It’s long overdue”.

    In March, Kushner sparked controversy when he publicly praised the “very valuable potential” of “waterfront property” in Gaza, in comments that gave a window into what Trump’s policy on Palestine could be during his second term.

    During Trump’s presidency, Kushner played a major role in negotiating the “Abraham Accords”: normalization deals between Israel and the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Sudan and Morocco. Palestinians slammed the agreements as “a stab in the back of the Palestinian cause and the Palestinian people”.

    At one point, Trump’s son-in-law described Gaza as having no historical context – “It was the result of a war – you had tribes that went different places and then Gaza became a thing.”

    Before leading in the creation of Trump’s so-called Deal of the Century, Kushner claimed his expertise on the subject came from reading 25 books about Palestine.

    Russian foreign minister urges Israel to abandon ‘essentially terrorist methods of settling political scores’

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov urged Israel on Saturday to abandon “essentially terrorist methods of settling political scores” as he commented on the assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah.

    Lavrov said at a news conference in New York that he had the impression that Israel is trying to provoke Iran and the Lebanese resistance group, Hezbollah, to push the US into direct involvement in the conflict in the Middle East.

    The Russian diplomat noted that Nasrallah’s murder was not the first provocative step by Israel. Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh was killed in July in the Iranian capital of Tehran where he went to take part in the funeral of President Ebrahim Raisi. Before that, Israel attacked the Iranian diplomatic mission in the Syrian capital of Damascus.

    “Apparently, Israel wants to create a reason for the US to get involved in this war. And in order to create this reason, it has been provoking both Iran and Hezbollah. In this situation, Iranian leadership is behaving extremely responsibly,” he said. “I don’t think this is the right course, I am convinced that the bloodshed must be stopped.”

    Asked about Israel’s willingness to implement UN Security Council resolutions, Lavrov said: “I do not see Israel’s desire to carry out any peace plans.”

    STATISTICS OCTOBER 7 – SEPTEMBER 29:

    Palestinian death toll from October 7, 2023 – September 29, 2024: at least 42,334* (41,615 in Gaza* – 11,308 women (30%), 16,859 children as of September 5. [The Ministry’s figures have been contested by the Israeli authorities, although they have been accepted as accurate by Israeli intelligence services, the UN, and WHO. These data are supported by independent analyses, comparing changes in the number of deaths of UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) staff with those reported by the Ministry, which found claims of data fabrication implausible.]

    This is expected to be a significant undercount since thousands of those killed have yet to be identified – and at least 719 in the West Bank (~148 children). This does not include an estimated 10,000 more still buried under rubble (4,900 women and children). Euro-Med Monitor reports 49,032 Palestinian deaths.

    Lancet: “Applying a conservative estimate of four indirect deaths per one direct death9 to the 37,396 deaths reported, it is not implausible to estimate that up to 186 000 or even more deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza.

    Ralph Nader earlier estimated 300,000 Palestinians may have been killed in Gaza.

    At least 45 Palestinians have died in Israeli prisons (27 from Gaza, 25 from West Bank).
    At least 41 Palestinians have died due to malnutrition (at least 37 of them children)**.
    About 1.9 million of Gaza’s 2.3 million population are currently displaced.
    Almost 500,000 Gazans are currently experiencing catastrophic levels of food insecurity.
    Palestinian injuries from October 7 – September 29: at least 102,059 (including at least 96,359 in Gaza and 5,700 in the West Bank, including 830 children). [It remains unknown how many Americans are among the casualties in Gaza.]

    Reported Israeli death toll from October 7, 2023 – September 29, 2024: ~1,457 (~1,139 on October 7, 2023, of which ~32 were Americans, and ~36 were children); 293*** military forces since the ground invasion began in Gaza; 25 military and civilians in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Israel) and~10,000 injured.

    The death toll in Lebanon since October 8, 2023 is 1,640 (104 children, 194 women) and 8,408 injuries. More recently, since September 16, 1,030 have been killed, 6,352 have been injured., with 6,352 injuries, the Lebanese Health Ministry said on Saturday, September 28.

    NOTE: It is unknown at this time how many of the deaths and injuries of Israelis on October 7 were caused by Israeli soldiers.

    *Previously, IAK did not include 471 Gazans killed in the Al Ahli hospital blast since the source of the projectile was being disputed. However, given that much evidence points to Israel as the culprit, Israel had previously bombed the hospital and has attacked many others, Israel is prohibiting outside experts from investigating the scene, and since the UN and other agencies are including the deaths from the attack in their cumulative totals, if Americans knew is now also doing so.

    **Euro-Med Monitor reports that Gaza’s elderly are dying at an alarmingly high rate. The majority die at home and are buried either close to their residences or in makeshift graves dispersed across the Strip. There are currently more than 140 such cemeteries. Additionally, according to Euromed, thousands have died from starvation, malnourishment, and inadequate medical care; these are considered indirect victims as they were not registered in hospitals.

    ***The figure does not include the reportedly 53 Israeli soldiers – nearly 16% of the total Israeli military deaths – killed due to friendly fire in Gaza and other military-related accidents.

    † For most of the conflict, women and children accounted for about 70% of deaths in Gaza, with children making up a little over 40% of those killed, according to official statistics.

At least four Palestinians were killed and several others injured in an Israeli airstrike on the Umm al-Fahm School in the town of Beit Lahia, which serves to shelter displaced civilians in the northern Gaza Strip. The Lebanese health ministry has reported that Israeli air strikes on Sunday killed at least 109 individuals and left 364 others wounded across the country. An entire family of 17 members was wiped out by an Israeli airstrike on Sunday in the town of Zboud, in the Bekaa Valley in eastern Lebanon, Lebanese media said. In Yemen, at least four people were killed and 49 others injured in Israeli airstrikes on the western city of Al Hudaydah on Sunday, the Houthi group said. Around 17,000 children killed in Israeli war on Gaza, Palestinian authorities say Anadolu Agency reports: Around 17,000 Palestinian children have been killed in Israel’s ongoing war on the Gaza Strip since last October, according to local authorities on Sunday. “Around 25,973 Palestinian children now live in Gaza without one or both parents due to the Israeli aggression,” Ismail al-Thawabta, who heads Gaza’s government media office, told Anadolu. He said at least 16,859 children, including 171 infants, have been killed in Israeli attacks since Oct. 7, 2023. The UN Children’s Fund (UNICEF) has repeatedly warned that “Gaza’s children have endured unimaginable horrors” under relentless Israeli attacks.

Mahmoud ssa / Anadolu via Getty Images (photo) Gaza: Israel’s destruction of agricultural land is expression of its insistence on committing genocide Euro Med Monitor reports: Israel has once again destroyed hundreds of dunams of agricultural land, depriving Palestinians in the northern Gaza Strip of agricultural land and resources vital to survival, all in support of its illegal blockade of the Strip and tight restrictions on the entry of food supplies for almost a full year. This is an expression of Israel’s insistence on committing genocide against Palestinians in the enclave. Israel has forced over 75% of agricultural land in the Gaza Strip from the Palestinian people’s hands, either by isolating it in preparation for illegally annexing it to its military “buffer zone” or by bulldozing or otherwise damaging it, thereby destroying the Strip’s supply of fruits, vegetables, and meat. This destruction is part of a larger Israeli plan that dates back to last October. Under this plan, Israeli forces have worked to eliminate almost 80% of the agricultural land in the Gaza Strip from use by Palestinians. Israel has done this either by isolating it in preparation for its forcible annexation to the so-called “buffer zone” or by bulldozing or destroying it by other means, such as bombardment—all of which are in violation of international law. According to the Euro-Med Monitor field team, Israeli forces stormed the area of Al-Shimaa in Beit Lahia, northern Gaza, early on Tuesday morning (25 September 2024). Accompanied by military bulldozers, the forces began their bulldozing operations, destroying more than 500 dunums of newly replanted agricultural land, which was supposed to sustain the needs of the people living in northern Gaza, who are subject to an arbitrary siege and systematic starvation by Israel. The Israeli destruction of these agricultural lands, the majority of which were filled with eggplants, reflects Israel’s insistence on preventing the Palestinian people from depending on the region’s agricultural food basket during a period when sufficient supplies of vegetables and other foods are being kept out of the northern Gaza Strip. This has led to a severe famine, to the point where a significant portion of the people in the north have been forced to eat tree leaves and bake ground-up animal feed instead of flour.

Palestinian security in Gaza says spying devices found in displacement camps Middle East Monitor reports: The Palestinian security services in Gaza have in recent days seized Israeli spying equipment planted in a shelter for displaced families in the southern Gaza Strip, a Palestinian resistance media platform reported on its Telegram channel yesterday. The platform quoted a security officer as saying that “the [Israeli] occupation intelligence had disguised the seized spying devices with different shapes, so they appear as part of the surrounding and natural environment including in the form of a rock.” The officer suggested the Israeli intelligence planted the spying devices via Quadcopter drones, calling on everyone “not to tamper with any suspicious devices and to contact the security officers immediately.” Tent camp near Al-Aqsa Hospital that was hit by a deadly Israeli air attack [Abdallah FS Alattar/Anadolu] Tent camp near Al-Aqsa Hospital that was hit by a recent deadly Israeli air attack [Abdallah FS Alattar/Anadolu] (photo) From Gaza to Lebanon: Israel’s Bombing Campaign Backed by Media Propaganda MintPress News reports: Western corporate media outlets, including the BBC, CNN, and The New York Times, have been working overtime to justify Israel’s recent assault on Lebanon, which claimed the lives of approximately 600 people in a single day. These reports have repeatedly claimed that the Israeli strikes were targeting “Hezbollah positions,” an assertion that has been widely echoed without substantial scrutiny. Israel’s large-scale onslaught against civilian areas throughout Lebanon, which began on Monday, was covered by Western corporate media as “strikes on Hezbollah.” CNN’s story on the first day of the assault, after around 500 people had been killed across Lebanon, was titled, “Israeli Strikes Targeting Hezbollah Kill Hundreds Across Lebanon.” The New York Times set up a live events feed labeled “Israel Strikes Hezbollah Targets in Lebanon.” Even Reuters and the Associated Press, two of the most reputable Western news providers, framed the events as an escalation from “both sides,” covering Israel’s attack on Hezbollah. A Reuters article published Tuesday opens with a telling lede: “An Israeli airstrike on Beirut killed a senior Hezbollah commander on Tuesday as cross-border rocket attacks by both sides increased fears of a full-fledged war in the Middle East, and Lebanon said only Washington could help end the fighting.” Israel has made no secret of the fact that it is targeting civilians, as demonstrated by its release of a CGI video showing mockups of Lebanese villages, where missiles are allegedly stored in homes. Despite this, much of the Western media has yet to acknowledge these admissions. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu dispelled any remaining doubt when he delivered a message in English to the people of Lebanon in which he claimed, “Hezbollah has been using you as human shields.” He further stated, “They’ve placed rockets in your living rooms” and “missiles in your garage.” (Read the full analysis here.) Garbage situation in Gaza is catastrophic Various agencies report: UNRWA, the United Nations group serving Palestinian refugees, says: Mountains of garbage are piling up in Gaza middle areas as sewage leaks onto streets. Families have no choice but to live beside the accumulated waste, exposed to the reek and the threat of a looming health disaster. Sanitary and living conditions across Gaza are inhumane. According to ReliefWeb, the waste management system in Gaza, already limited before the war, has now completely collapsed as collection vehicles have been destroyed and access to official landfills is refused by the Israeli military. Waste attracts rodents and insects resulting in the spread of infectious diseases such as cholera or skin diseases, while waste burning, a disposal method that locals use to manage the current emergency, worsens air pollution which in turn can result in further respiratory problems. People, many of whom are children, scavenging waste for food and sustenance, face additional risks from hazardous materials, which include medical waste and industrial chemicals. There are also growing indications that conflict pollution is risked with the spread of antimicrobial resistance, a development that can deepen the medical health crisis. Large waste dumps are also a threat to the soil and groundwater, as leachate, a toxic mix that spills from the waste, seeps into the land and affects groundwater, while in the long-term, increased methane release from landfills contributes to an increase of greenhouse gas emissions.

We have no other choice,” he noted. Mikati also reaffirmed Lebanon’s commitment to United Nations Security Council Resolution 1701, which calls for a cessation of hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah.

He said his office is conducting a series of investigations related to the failures that led to the Oct. 7 attack. “We are nearing completion of this report, but to finalize it, we need to meet with three individuals in the military,” Englman added. He emphasized that Army Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi believes that the State Comptroller’s office should not intervene in military issues, declaring him “wrong.” The State Comptroller’s office is Israel’s central institution for overseeing various state agencies to ensure public financial accountability.

Mark Kelly, chair of the Senate Armed Services Airland Subcommittee, said Israel used a 2,000-lb (900-kg) Mark 84 series bomb, during an interview with NBC. His statement marks the first U.S. indication of what weapon had been used. “We see more use of guided munitions, JDAMs, and we continue to provide those weapons,” Kelly said, using an abbreviation that stands for Joint Direct Attack Munitions. “That 2,000-pound bomb that was used, that’s a Mark 84 series bomb, to take out Nasrallah,” he said. The Israeli military said on Saturday it had eliminated Nasrallah in a strike on the group’s central command headquarters in Beirut’s southern suburbs. The Israeli military has declined to comment on what weapons were used in the attack. The Pentagon was not immediately available for comment. JDAMs convert a standard unguided bomb using fins and a GPS guidance system into a guided weapon. AL JAZEERA ADDS: Israel media says about 85 so-called “bunker-buster” bombs were used in the attack on Hasan Nasrallah. Also known as “ground penetration munition”, these missiles burrow deep into the ground before they detonate. They have the power to destroy underground facilities and reinforced concrete buildings.

This savagery prompted Leon Panetta, former director of the CIA and former secretary of defense, in an interview on the CBS “Sunday Morning” news show to charge Israel with “terrorism.” No prominent national security figure has ever assailed Israel this way. Herewith his words: The ability to be able to place an explosive in technology that is very prevalent these days. And turn it into a war of terror. Really, a war of terror. This is something new. I don’t think there’s any question that it’s a form of terrorism…This is going right into the supply chain, right into the supply chain. And when you have terror going into the supply chain, it makes people ask the question, what the hell is next? Panetta would never have uttered these words without the concurrence of the CIA and the Department of Defense. Still no consequences for Netanyahu by the U.S. government. Netanyahu has made the push button a trigger for mayhem and murder—acts of large-scale terrorism. He and his predecessors have always characterized offensive acts violating the laws of war as “acceptable” defensive tactics. The supine Congress and White House regularly rubber-stamp their violations of several U.S. laws on behalf of the Israeli government. (See the letter sent to John Kirby on September 12, 2024). Consider the aftermath. No denunciation by U.S. President Biden, Secretary of State Antony Blinken, or Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin. Alarmingly, there were no editorials in the following week criticizing Netanyahu in The Washington Post and The New York Times. Imagine if Hezbollah did this to Israeli society. The devaluation of Palestinian and Lebanese lives can only be called racist. U.S. blowback analysts are apprehensive about the spread of Israeli-style “red button” explosives and the ingenious, and ever-cheaper armed drones. They see such technologies as potential threats within the U.S. Such is the peril of nations whose leaders wage constant profitable, preventable wars and decline to wage muscular peace with comparable determination.

More than 600 people are there, inside the parish and the college, and they tell me about the things that are happening, including the cruelties that are occurring there,” he told journalists. “[D]efense must always be proportionate to the attack,” he added. “When there is something disproportionate, a domineering tendency that goes beyond morality is evident,” the pope said. “A country that, with its forces, does these things—I’m talking about any country—that does these things in such a “superlative” way, these are immoral actions,” he added. “Even in war, there is morality to be safe-guarded. War is immoral, but the rules of war indicate some morality. But when this is not respected, you can see—as we say in Argentina—the “bad blood” of these things.” Jared Kushner says Israel must ‘finish the job’ in Lebanon Al Jazeera reports: Jared Kushner, who served as a senior adviser during former US President Donald Trump’s tenure in the White House, has said calling for a ceasefire in Lebanon is “wrong”. In a post on X, Kushner said Israel “cannot afford now to not finish the job” and dismantle Hezbollah completely.“They will never get another chance. After the brilliant, rapid-fire tactical successes of the pagers, radios, and targeting of leadership, Hezbollah’s massive weapon cache is unguarded and unmanned,” said Kushner, who is also the Republican candidate’s son-in-law. He added that the “right move” for the US is to allow Israel to “finish the job. It’s long overdue”. In March, Kushner sparked controversy when he publicly praised the “very valuable potential” of “waterfront property” in Gaza, in comments that gave a window into what Trump’s policy on Palestine could be during his second term. During Trump’s presidency, Kushner played a major role in negotiating the “Abraham Accords”: normalization deals between Israel and the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Sudan and Morocco. Palestinians slammed the agreements as “a stab in the back of the Palestinian cause and the Palestinian people”. At one point, Trump’s son-in-law described Gaza as having no historical context – “It was the result of a war – you had tribes that went different places and then Gaza became a thing.” Before leading in the creation of Trump’s so-called Deal of the Century, Kushner claimed his expertise on the subject came from reading 25 books about Palestine. Russian foreign minister urges Israel to abandon ‘essentially terrorist methods of settling political scores’ Anadolu Agency reports: Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov urged Israel on Saturday to abandon “essentially terrorist methods of settling political scores” as he commented on the assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. Lavrov said at a news conference in New York that he had the impression that Israel is trying to provoke Iran and the Lebanese resistance group, Hezbollah, to push the US into direct involvement in the conflict in the Middle East. The Russian diplomat noted that Nasrallah’s murder was not the first provocative step by Israel. Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh was killed in July in the Iranian capital of Tehran where he went to take part in the funeral of President Ebrahim Raisi. Before that, Israel attacked the Iranian diplomatic mission in the Syrian capital of Damascus. “Apparently, Israel wants to create a reason for the US to get involved in this war. And in order to create this reason, it has been provoking both Iran and Hezbollah. In this situation, Iranian leadership is behaving extremely responsibly,” he said. “I don’t think this is the right course, I am convinced that the bloodshed must be stopped.” Asked about Israel’s willingness to implement UN Security Council resolutions, Lavrov said: “I do not see Israel’s desire to carry out any peace plans.” Lebanese Red Cross teams conducted search and rescue operations in the rubble of collapsed buildings following an Israeli army attack in Nabatieh province of southern Lebanon, on September 27, 2024.

[The Ministry’s figures have been contested by the Israeli authorities, although they have been accepted as accurate by Israeli intelligence services, the UN, and WHO. These data are supported by independent analyses, comparing changes in the number of deaths of UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) staff with those reported by the Ministry, which found claims of data fabrication implausible.] This is expected to be a significant undercount since thousands of those killed have yet to be identified – and at least 719 in the West Bank (~148 children). This does not include an estimated 10,000 more still buried under rubble (4,900 women and children). Euro-Med Monitor reports 49,032 Palestinian deaths. Lancet: “Applying a conservative estimate of four indirect deaths per one direct death9 to the 37,396 deaths reported, it is not implausible to estimate that up to 186 000 or even more deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza. Ralph Nader earlier estimated 300,000 Palestinians may have been killed in Gaza. At least 45 Palestinians have died in Israeli prisons (27 from Gaza, 25 from West Bank). At least 41 Palestinians have died due to malnutrition (at least 37 of them children)**. About 1.9 million of Gaza’s 2.3 million population are currently displaced. Almost 500,000 Gazans are currently experiencing catastrophic levels of food insecurity. Palestinian injuries from October 7 – September 29: at least 102,059 (including at least 96,359 in Gaza and 5,700 in the West Bank, including 830 children). [It remains unknown how many Americans are among the casualties in Gaza.] Reported Israeli death toll from October 7, 2023 – September 29, 2024: ~1,457 (~1,139 on October 7, 2023, of which ~32 were Americans, and ~36 were children); 293*** military forces since the ground invasion began in Gaza; 25 military and civilians in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Israel) and~10,000 injured. The death toll in Lebanon since October 8, 2023 is 1,640 (104 children, 194 women) and 8,408 injuries. More recently, since September 16, 1,030 have been killed, 6,352 have been injured., with 6,352 injuries, the Lebanese Health Ministry said on Saturday, September 28. NOTE: It is unknown at this time how many of the deaths and injuries of Israelis on October 7 were caused by Israeli soldiers. *Previously, IAK did not include 471 Gazans killed in the Al Ahli hospital blast since the source of the projectile was being disputed. However, given that much evidence points to Israel as the culprit, Israel had previously bombed the hospital and has attacked many others, Israel is prohibiting outside experts from investigating the scene, and since the UN and other agencies are including the deaths from the attack in their cumulative totals, if Americans knew is now also doing so. **Euro-Med Monitor reports that Gaza’s elderly are dying at an alarmingly high rate. The majority die at home and are buried either close to their residences or in makeshift graves dispersed across the Strip. There are currently more than 140 such cemeteries. Additionally, according to Euromed, thousands have died from starvation, malnourishment, and inadequate medical care; these are considered indirect victims as they were not registered in hospitals. ***The figure does not include the reportedly 53 Israeli soldiers – nearly 16% of the total Israeli military deaths – killed due to friendly fire in Gaza and other military-related accidents. † For most of the conflict, women and children accounted for about 70% of deaths in Gaza, with children making up a little over 40% of those killed, according to official statistics.

  • Unvaccinated Blood under the Darkfield Microscope including my own, what a Shocker!
    German Short Version:https://uncutnews.ch/die-professorin-nimmt-ungeimpftes-blut-unter-die-lupe-und-bekommt-den-schrecken-ihres-lebens/

    I examined the blood of three unvaccinated individuals including my own. They had Hydrogels in their blood. Not as many and not as large as the jabbed do, but nevertheless worrisome.

    The photo below shows the blood of an unvaccinated man in his early 50ies. He is very well informed about the dangers of the jabs and knew before the rollout that these were dangerous.



    The red blood cells are clumped together in rouleau formation, though he hadn’t had water for several hours before doing the exam. Thus, that could be the reason. I found three hydrogels in total. He has no symptoms.

    Next is a man in his late 50ies who never took the jab, never did a PCR test and never wore a mask. He’s rarely in the company of jabbed people. He too had a few Hydrogels in the blood and some clumping of red blood cells despite being hydrated. He works in the garden a lot with his bare hands. He has no symptoms.




    The following is my own blood. I found one Hydrogel about a good month ago. What I found now is shocking to me as I obviously didn’t take the jab, never did a test nor wore a mask, but spent time around jabbed people in planes, airports and in my house doing microscopy. I also work in the garden with my bare hands. The question remains of where the second guy and I got this from and we suspect it may be from working with the soil which gets drenched with rain. We have been sprayed intensely like bugs by chemtrails since last Thanksgiving. There has been spraying before that, but after Thanksgiving it increased dramatically. As I will show in my next Substack, rainwater contains Hydrogels.




    The above shows a white blood cell on the right trying to attack the Hydrogel unsuccessfully.


    Two “Serpents”


    I call this one “The Dragon”. It’s huge at only 160 magnification.

    I have been taking 225 mg liposomal Calcium EDTA from Global Healing per day and 4 g of liposomal Vitamin C from Mercola. Obviously, that was not enough. I am now increasing it to 490 mg EDTA and 10 g of Vitamin C per day and will recheck in a few weeks. That’s the oral protocol by Dr. Ana-Maria Mihalcea MD, PhD. In addition, I’m taking 2 Plaquex Oral of 900 mg each per day.

    I wanted to see what happened when I added injectable EDTA to the slide. I had some Disodium EDTA for intravenous use and added a drop which was no easy task, as I had to lift the coverslip off the slide, hoping it wouldn’t completely obliterate the sample, then add the drop of EDTA. I next took two fresh blood samples and added EDTA to one of them before adding the coverslip.

    The EDTA destroyed the Hydrogel instantly and killed “the serpent”:



    “The Serpent” from another blood sample

    At this ratio of one drop blood to one drop EDTA, the red blood cells were obliterated as well. That would be the equivalent of infusing one and a half gallons of pure undiluted EDTA in one sitting which of course would cause death quite instantly.


    Above: EDTA pretty much destroyed the red blood cells at this dose, which is to be expected.

    I will experiment with adding Ivermectin to the blood to see what happens. I have doubts this would change anything, but you never know until you try it. I will also follow up with my own blood after taking the recommended doses of liposomal EDTA and Vitamin C.

Unfortunately, I don’t have time to respond to all of them as I’m doing this research besides my regular work, advising the detox clinic that’s hopefully about to open soon, and taking care of my little sister who has Down Syndrome as well as my house and vegetable and fruit garden.

I have doubts this would change anything, but you never know until you try it. I will also follow up with my own blood after taking the recommended doses of liposomal EDTA and Vitamin C.

  • Microscopy of Rain-, Well- & Reverse Osmosis Filtered Tap Water, Boiled Fiji and Pre-Covid Fiji Water and Mountain Valley Water

    Based on reader comments and suggestion, I did darkfield microscopy of the same Fiji water I tested for my recent Substack, but I boiled it first. I found an older bottle Fiji water from the “pre-Covid” era and tested that too. Then I took samples of rainwater, of my well water fed by rain, as well as of the water after it runs through the whole house reverse osmosis (RO) system. I also sampled water I get delivered every month from Mountain Valley water as I prefer the taste to the RO water. It comes in 5-gallon glass jugs.

    The Fiji water from the same bottle as the sample I showed two weeks ago still had hydrogel-like structures in it after boiling it:




    So boiling is useless when it comes to hydrogels.

    The older Fiji bottle as well had something that looks like a hydrogel:


    But the older bottle had crystals the new bottle didn’t have.


    Fiji water is famous for its silica content, but an image search for silica crystals made it clear these are not silica crystals. So far, I haven’t been able to identify them.

    I then collected rainwater and examined it as well. It contains hydrogel like structures in various forms:






    Next up I examined my well water which is known for its sulfur content which is why the yard smells like rotten eggs once the sprinklers go off. That’s why everyone here in the Acreage uses the sprinklers around 2 am when you don’t smell it (if your windows are closed which they are most of the time except on cool winter nights when we need the sprinklers most as it’s the dry season).

    The moving things are bacteria that live in the soil. Thankfully and surprisingly, there were no hydrogels to be found. It may be that the filtration of rainwater passing through soil layers removes these. The soil here consists mostly of sand.

    The well water runs through a complex filtration system using a carbon filter, a 5- and 20-micron filter I change monthly and then two reverse osmosis filter membranes. Then calcite is added to the water, and it’s finally stored in a 300 Gallon tank with a UV lamp. That’s what comes out of the tap.


    My wholehouse RO filtration system with two white horizontal membrane filters on the wall and a 300 Gallon tank on the right in grey. Two pumps provide the water supply: a well pump to get the water out of the well into the system and a house pump to pump the filtered water into the house. This also means when there is no power, there is no water which is why I have a solar power back up system.

    There are no hydrogels and almost no bacteria floating in the tap water (to my great relief). The out of focus circles are artifacts on the slide. Just disregard them.

    Lastly, I examined Mountain Valley Water which has a great reputation with colleagues such as Dr. Tom Cowan MD and others.

    I found these two things. The lower image looks like a hydrogel, but it is tiny and these were the only two things that seem not to belong in water.



    So far it looks as if reverse osmosis filtered well water and coconut water are the safest drinks. Maybe I should also check wine, beer and scotch……… Cheers!


    I got some coconuts today and three of them filled an entire 1 quart (liter) bottle:

    Coconut water seems to be safe to drink in regard to hydrogels. It may be because the coconut water is inside two shells. There is the softer, but very thick green outer shell and then inside of that is the smaller wooden coconut shell that contains the water. Thus it’s protected from rain and chemtrails.

    Note about your comments: I read them all and I appreciate your questions and suggestions. Unfortunately, I don’t have time to respond to all of them as I’m doing this research besides my regular work, advising the detox clinic that’s hopefully about to open soon, and taking care of my little sister who has Down Syndrome as well as my house and vegetable and fruit garden.

  • Darkfield Microscopy of Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Chivas Regal and Beer

    After examining water from different sources, I turned to testing my favorite Californian Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc from Chile, Chivas Regal Scotch Whiskey and Budweiser Beer. The good news is that the Chardonnay and Chivas are the cleanest drinks under the microscope. No hydrogels, no fibers and no bacteria. The Sauvignon Blanc had structures that look like microchips but it turns out they are probably crystals. The Budweiser beer too had some structures that could be hydrogels.


    Here is Chardonnay:


    The blurry circles are out of focus artifacts baked into the slide. The focus is on the level of the liquid as I could see it flowing. As you can see, there is nothing to be seen in the liquid.

    Here is Chivas Regal:


    There is absolutely nothing to be seen here. The image below shows few glowing white dots that may be tiny sediments that weren’t filtered out or crystals that formed over time as this bottle has been open sitting in my bar for many years.


    Following is what I found in Sauvignon Blanc from Chile.





    These structures look like microchips, but they may just be crystals. I found this information about wine crystals:

    Most of us have experienced opening what promises to be a phenomenal bottle of wine, only to be surprised by small crystals on the cork or particles suspended in the wine. Don’t panic—those crystals are called tartrates and they are simply a sign of how the wine was made. They are harmless to you and do not affect wine quality. In fact, tartrates in wine often indicate a higher quality wine. Tartrates—also affectionately called “wine diamonds” —are formed from tartaric acid, which is naturally occurring in all wines and provides structure, balance, and flavor.

    What are tartrates?

    Tartrate crystals, also known as wine crystals, are crystalline deposits of potassium bitartrate that can form in wine during fermentation and aging. Tartrates in wine develop when tartaric acid binds with potassium under cold conditions.

    Let’s be geeky for a minute

    What is the story with acid in wine? Tartaric acid is one of three main acids found in wine grapes alongside malic and citric acids. Each type of acid plays a key role in the wine production process and contributes different flavors and textures to the end wine. While malic acid does contribute to the aromas of a wine, it is more known for its role during the winemaking process when the winemaker opts to include malolactic fermentation; in this process, the stronger malic acid is converted into the softer, smoother lactic acid. On the other hand, tartaric acid is arguably the most important acid in wine due to the prominent role it plays in maintaining the chemical stability of the wine, the color, and influencing the taste of the finished product.

    During the fermentation and barrel aging process, less than half of the tartaric acid present in a wine will settle out and bind with lees, pulp debris, and precipitated tannins and pigments. The majority of the tartaric acid will stay soluble throughout the production process. The remaining tartaric acid in a wine is the primary acid you taste, and is essential to the final mouthfeel and balance, adding an additional layer of complexity to a wine.

    From: https://www.stonestreetwines.com/understanding_tartrates_crystals_in_wine_effects_of_cold_stabilization.html

    The Sauvignon Blanc is definitely of a higher quality than the Chardonnay which could explain why the Chardonnay didn’t have any crystals.

    I also examined a Budweiser Beer from a pre-Covid glass bottle. It had some structures in it that might be hydrogels. There were a lot of moving bacteria which is normal for beer. The following images are at 1600x magnification.




    In brightfield there were two fibers that don’t look like fungi (Saccharomyces) to make beer. It’s not always possible to determine what we see under a microscope as it doesn’t come with a chemical analysis.



    To the delight of many wine and scotch afficionados it seems that wine and scotch are safe to drink in regards to being free of hydrogels. Cheers!

    Distilled Water

    Some readers asked me to check distilled water. I bought a gallon of the only brand our grocery store had on hand, Crystal and examined it:


    It had foreign material in it that really isn’t supposed to be in distilled water. I don’t think they are hydrogels though as there are no active quantum dots inside the structures.



    The out of focus circles are etched into the slide. The focus is on the liquid level, not the slide level.

    This video below shows a lot of bacteria in the sample. To ensure that there was no contamination from the slide or cover slip, I checked a fresh set of slides and cover slips without any sample just with the oil on the condenser to ensure it wasn’t the oil that was contaminated. They all checked out clean. I redid the test after disinfecting a new slide and cover slip and it again showed bacteria in the sample. It also showed a few very bright dots roaming around which could be larger bacteria. In any case this isn’t water I would want to consume.

    I can’t check self made distilled water as I have no equipment to distill water. I also don’t have a “still” to make alcohol (just joking).

    Note to readers in the UK: Plaquex therapy will be available in the UK probably by the end of October. The clinic will also be introducing detox treatments for the Covid jabs at a later date. Once the clinic begins offering Plaquex, I will post it on this Substack with the contact information.

  • I Quit Eating White Flour & Threw Out All My "Vitamins" - Here's What Happened (Part 1)
    After I learned synthetic vitamins are poison, the United Nations is behind the Food Fortification program (which drugs the food supply with vitamins) and, like viruses, vitamins have never been properly isolated because they too are a Big Pharma scheme to sell us health made in a laboratory, I began taking a hard look at what I was eating.

    At this point in my life I had completely quit taking all supplements and I thought I was eating healthy, but upon closer inspection, I was alarmed to discover my entire diet was being synthetically vitaminized and poisoned. Literally everything was tainted, right down to my Paradise Green dehydrated peas…



    From my bag of rice to my afternoon kombucha drinks, all of the products in my pantry had chemicals slipped in to places least expected - they drugged the peas for f*cks sake! DEHYDRATED PEAS!

    Many months later, I was in the process of writing The Vitamin Swindle Part 1: The White Bread Scandal, when I learned rats that get into white flour mills won’t touch the flour. The more I researched, the more disturbed I became, specifically regarding white flour and the history of it. I learned about a massive conspiracy between the flour mills, the American Medical Association, Big Pharma and the US government. Long story short, they knew white flour was causing major health issues and they knew living off of it was the cause of “Beriberi”, yet they went out of their way to assure the public it was a great, nutritious product that people should eat for their health.


    REMOVAL OF WHITE FLOUR FROM MY DIET

    You see, because white flour, like rice flour, has vitamins dumped in at the mills via the UN “fortification” and “enrichment” program, it is nearly impossible to eat products containing this flour and avoid also consuming synthetic vitamins: (17 second video)

    So, although I had quit consuming bottled supplements, I was still consuming the same vitamins via the food supply. But after the rat discovery, without hesitation, I axed white flour from my diet. Let me tell you, while not taking vitamins was easy (and saved me money too!), not eating white flour was incredibly difficult because I had to relearn how to eat and, being that I loathed cooking, I didn’t know what to do. I was so used to buying premade health food that I felt lost; everything I was purchasing had white flour (or synthetic vitamins) in it somewhere. With zero kitchen skills, my meals became a head of broccoli with natural butter and Real Salt or diced cucumber with garlic, feta and extra virgin olive oil or a plate of sliced tomatoes and lots of baked potatoes. Here’s an example of my dinner:


    The first five-or-so nights of being white-flour-free, I sweat like crazy while I slept and my sweat smelled ghastly. It was a strange odor I had never smelled before. I can’t quite explain it, perhaps something like plastic burning in a hot dumpster that is full of roadkill and rotten dairy. It was so foul that I had to run my bedding to the washing machine every morning for nearly a week. No matter how much I showered I could still smell this awful stench for the first couple days.

    NO WHITE FLOUR, WEEK #2

    I woke up one morning and discovered my underwear were stretched out. I grabbed a different pair and those didn’t fit either. What the heck? Did the washer ruin my clothes? When I pulled on my work pants, those didn’t fit either! I realized I had lost weight - a lot of it. I hurried to the closet to grab my belt, threw it around my wait and slid the buckle right past my usual connection hole. I had lost so much weight in 14 days that I downsized one belt hole! I was quite puzzled because I lost this weight by doing nothing other than quitting white flour; no gym and 0 exercise because I traded that time for writing Substack articles for you.

    I also noticed my facial skin looked more youthful. The bags under my eyes nearly vanished. I told my spouse I think I have the energy of a 20 year old, *wink, wink*.

    WEEK #3

    By the third week I lost another 10-or-so pounds, now my shirts looked a full size too large. But that’s not all, another huge change occurred. During this week I began becoming naturally tired in the evenings. Writing articles until 9pm then watching a documentary until 10:30-11pm no longer worked for me. I was tired at 8, asleep by 9 and up at 3am so I could get in a few hours of writing before work. This may sound like a really insane time to wake up, but I love it. My mind is so clear, I am so focused and the world is so peaceful. I think my best content and research is what I am producing at this early hour.

    Strangely, even though I was waking up so early then spending three hours working before I go into work, I had energy the entire day. Additionally, my mood had become overall more optimistic about everything in life. I began hacking away at the list of sh*t I have been putting off forever. (Responding to Substack direct messages is on that list. Only 580 more messages to go…)

    WEEK #4

    By the fourth week, my love handles vanished. I pinched my love handle area and could only pinch an inch of skin between my fingers. My stomach began to flatten. I even noticed my face looked thinner and the droop in my chin that I blamed on age disappeared. My shoulders began looking defined again and that sure wasn’t from spending 12 hours a day on a pc. Then something really wild happened…

    MONTH 1

    Around the end of the month, I realized my taste buds completely changed. Everything I loved (especially potato chips and dip, Lord I loved me some cheddar & sour cream chips with French onion dip), became disgusting. After being flour-and-chemical-free for over four weeks, Tostitos tortilla chips were inedible because the chemicals in them burned the sh*t out of my gums. Fast food, even my beloved Taco Bell, tasted f*cking terrible - so disgusting that, for the first time ever, I threw it out after two bites. When my spouse, who is not on board with my diet, ordered a pizza, I took one bite then instead made another baked potato.

    It was at this time that foods containing chemicals or GMOs began killing my stomach. I dreaded dinner at my parents house because I knew I would be dealing with hours of pain. I was forced to cut restaurants our of my life because, even when I selected the best options, I was still forced to endure hours of torture afterward. (btw, I learned we should never be consuming products like Pepto Bismol, instead eat some nutmeg. It works fast too!)

    But it gets crazier - I started craving produce. For the first time in my life (I’m in my mid-40s), I wanted bananas and I would think to myself, “some cauliflower sounds good today”. I craved a baked potato without cheese - just real butter, real salt, real pepper and herbs (and organic sour cream because I’m no saint). Even more mind-blowing, cheese, as a whole, stopped being a necessity and food tasted great without it. In fact, I began tasting a plastic-type flavor in shredded cheese (even cheese my better-half shreds from full blocks), which was pretty repulsive so I no longer used cheese unless it was goat or sheep.

    Then, things got even stranger. I was able to somehow tune in with what my body wanted and my body wanted less meat and more beans. I know, it’s wild, right? I never in my life wanted beans unless it was a can refried bean dip for a bag of Doritos. I began to truly enjoy black beans which I previously hated. [If you hate cooking, the best canned bean manufacturer in the world is Siete. They are who singlehandedly got me to love black beans. Siete has products that allow an anti-cook to enjoy Mexican food and still eat clean without compromising taste. Their products are probably at wherever you shop, plus they are sold on Amazon.com, in Costco, etc. Here’s their site, SieteFoods.com and here’s their black beans:]


    Another unexpected change occurred around this time: my entire adult life, I have classified myself as running hot. It drove the spouse nuts because I would want to sleep with the window cracked, even in the winter. During the peak of summer I would sleep in the basement because the house was too hot, even with the AC on blast… but this all ended.

    MONTH #2

    At the beginning of the second month, I estimate I lost around 40 pounds! I didn’t realize I had that much to lose because I am an overall slimmer person and if you would have asked me how overweight I was, I would have said, “I guess I could lose 10 or 15 pounds.”. I lost so much weight that people started asking if I’ve been hitting the gym. When I replied, “Nope, just quit white flour and vitamins”, they looked at me like I was a lunatic, but that was ok.

    I now looked like I was wearing my father’s clothing, so I had to get new everything in a full size smaller.

    Then, one more crazy thing happened… and, for me, this was one of the most unexpected changes of all…

    I stopped drinking my beloved whiskey, not because I wanted to, no sir, I love whiskey. I stopped drinking it because I came home from work one day, walked to my whiskey shelf, picked up a bottle of Blanton’s and, as soon as I removed the cork, I realized I just didn’t want it. This is a feeling I had never experienced in my life. I began drinking when I was 15 years old and had drank ever since. When life felt at its worst, I would buy multiple bottles of whiskey at a time. In fact, I was buying so much that the liquor store would save empty case boxes for me so they were easier to carry to my vehicle.

    So, on this specific day, as I stood at my whiskey shelf, when I didn’t want to fill up my glass, it was as if my mind misfunctioned. As bizarre as this sounds, I tried to talk myself into having just one glass. My odd conversation with myself ended with the decision to not pour the whiskey and instead drink something else but to come back in an hour and fill the glass up. … an hour later, it still didn’t sound good. I was baffled.

    That was the first night in my adult life that I went to bed voluntarily choosing not to drink alcohol… and feeling GREAT! I wondered if I would feel horrible withdrawals come morning, but the withdrawals never came. I bounced out of bed, ready to seize the day. And when I got home from work on day #2, drinking again didn’t sound good.

    MONTH #3

    By the third month, my life had completely changed. I was a new person mentally and physically. I felt like I was the best version of myself that I could be. Like a superhero, my senses were all heightened and I became even more aware of things I had been missing around me. Let me give you an important example:

    Being that my spouse and young adult children are not participating in my diet, they eat all the processed garbage. Vegetables and fruit tastes terrible to them because their taste buds have adapted to the white flour diet. I will be writing more on this topic soon, so do it if you haven’t already:

    Anyway, I noticed that, when they wake up in the mornings they are physically fine however, within 30 minutes of them consuming breakfast (white flour and chemicals) they begin to develop a slight cough; a single cough or a throat-clearing that repeats approximately every 15 to 20 minutes after the consumption of these products. I observed the identical occurrence with my coworkers.

    I also noticed, after lunch (a second dose of the same toxins), in addition to the random cough, my older son will start slightly sniffling like allergies. At my job, my associate who stops at Panera Bread each morning for a muffin and a coke, needs allergy medication by noon. In the spring and summer she blames pollen, and when the identical symptoms occur in the fall and winter she blames dust. I had never really put 2 + 2 together... “allergies”…

    Throughout the first five months, I had a total of maybe 3 drinks, and the wildest part was that I cut myself off after a single drink because it just didn’t taste good. Even my top shelf whiskey, Heaven’s Door Bootleg Series, just didn’t do it for me.

    The one evening I was peer pressured into excessively drinking (buddy’s 40th birthday party), I didn’t enjoy it at all and woke up the next day feeling like hell. This further reinforced that I didn’t want to consume alcohol anymore.

    SIX MONTHS LATER: THE RELAPSE

    After a half year of being in the best health of my adult life (even better health than when I was bodybuilding because I was poison-free this time around), I had to go out of town for five days. On the upside, I got to stay at a resort. On the downside, I quickly realized there was absolutely nothing for me to eat that didn’t involve white flour, additives or vitamins. I arrived at the resort at 10pm and the only available food was pizza, white bread sandwiches with processed meat and cheese, fried chicken strips with white flour breading, and so on. I went to bed with my stomach growling.

    The next morning I awoke naturally at 3am, long before the resort breakfast area was open. I got out my laptop and tried to focus on writing while my stomach screamed. At 7am, when the breakfast bar opened, I raced to it, only to discover white flour bagels with processed cream cheese and chemical margarine packets, Dole fruit cups in heavy syrup, Quaker Oat single serve oatmeal with sugar and vitamins, Tropicana fortified orange juice served alongside fortified milk, and Quaker chocolate granola bars. Then there were also seven bananas. I grabbed a plate, took all seven and beelined back to my room.

    When lunch came, to my dismay, there were no non-tainted food options, and this is when my nosedive began…

    I selected the beer batter fried fish sandwich which seemed to be the least of all evils. I asked for no bun or toppings, just give me the breaded fish on a plate. Trying to remove the batter from the fish proved unsuccessful. It tasted horrible but I needed something in my stomach.

    That evening I had time to relax in tropical paradise. I found a good chair to watch the geoengineering over the ocean, it was painfully obvious they were in the process of making Hurricane Debby. While staring at planes spraying the sky and watching frequency being deployed to push the spray in one direction while the natural clouds were moving the opposite direction, the waitress convinced me to try their dark rum pina coladas which, as she stated, were indeed delicious. In fact, they were so delicious that I ordered two more. Thankfully they were also filling, so I didn’t go to bed hungry.

    The following day was a repeat of the prior. I stole all of the bananas, ate fish covered in white flour then fried in horrible oil, then enjoyed a half dozen high-fructose-corn-syrup-and-chemicals pina coladas for dinner. Later that evening, with clouded judgement, I decide to give those fried chicken strips a try. I even ordered chemical ranch dressing to go with them… then got a shot of whiskey, my first shot of whiskey since getting clean. Before bed I watched the electrical storm over the Atlantic: (11 second video)

    The third morning I did not naturally wake up at 3am, I instead slept in until after 7. When I got to the breakfast bar, the bananas weren’t available so I chose the fake oatmeal packet. I had this day off work so, come 10am, I was poolside being served dark rum pina coladas. There were now two clearly-defined layers of clouds, quickly moving in opposite directions, and the media was beginning to run their Debby fear campaign. That evening I ordered the pizza and it tasted great.

    Come morning #4, I didn’t want bananas, I instead opted for waffles with fake butter and cheap syrup. Lunch was a processed meat sandwich. Dinner was a burger with French fries dipped in ranch (I’m not a ketchup person, give me ranch or mayo). And this is where the unexpected happens…

    I also had the fifth day off work and again overslept by many hours. When I woke up I put on my shorts and noticed my stomach hanging over them. It wasn’t just a little bloated, it was bulged out substantially. I looked at my body in the mirror and I looked like I had gained at least 15 pounds! Dismayed but determined to enjoy my day, I repeated the day prior.

    All the way home, in the airports and on the planes, I ate trash and drank. Upon getting back to Michigan, I looked and felt like a different person. I was pudgy, tired, short-tempered, unmotivated, and I had a craving for fried foods, pizza and alcohol. Nothing sounded better than a bag of Lay’s and a can of Frito’s Jalapeno Cheddar Cheese Dip.

    That evening I had some of the fast food my spouse and kids picked up for dinner and I finally poured that Blanton’s I passed on many months prior.

    My first morning back home, I debated stopping at McDonalds on the way into work because a Bacon Egg and Cheese Biscuit sounded incredible, but I refrained only because my motivation had been so stripped that even stopping to get fast food sounded like too much work.

    The next week was incredibly difficult because my taste buds had completely shifted and all of the clean foods I had purchased tasted bad but all of the processed foods were mouth-watering. My mind was telling me to make a baked potato or slice up cucumbers but my body was telling me “do that tomorrow, for now order Uber Eats.” . After around 12-days of mental war, the cravings ended and I was back on track. It took several weeks for the bloating and water-weight gain to reside completely.

    10 MONTHS LATER

    It has now been around 10 months and I am back to my high school athlete weight. I have zero desire to eat processed food or white flour because it tastes so bad again.

    I had to get new apparel a second time because, even with the full size smaller clothing, I again looked like I was swimming in someone else’s shirts.

    In full transparency, not drinking alcohol resulted in a new coffee addiction. Yes, I am completely aware it is bad. In further full transparency, I still enjoy my cigars, but I’ll work on this as time progresses, one thing at a time, my friends. And in a final moment of transparency, I classify a single drink every couple months as “not being an alcohol drinker” and I see nothing wrong with this.

    LAUNCHING THE INVESTIGATION INTO WHITE FLOUR

    Perplexed by how quickly I fell off the rails and was overtaken by old habits, I couldn’t help but want to learn more about my whole experience, so I began looking deeper into white flour. The very first thing I discovered was that my weight loss and positive changes, especially to sleeping patterns, were nothing special, in fact, it’s the norm if you cut white flour from your diet. Here’s other people, before and after quitting flour, and their amazing transformations within only 30 or 60 days:

    Many of these people went completely gluten free and some axed sugar too but I did not.

    I began pondering white flour more. Remember how, at the beginning of this article, I explained there was this crazy conspiracy involving the government and the American Medical Association to make sure we consume this flour? I didn’t understand why the AMA was so hellbent on getting this inside of us. They wanted us to eat this so bad that they were willing to destroy their reputation over it. It seems hard to believe that this was just related to bribery or blackmail. It felt like their had to be more to the story.

    Deeper reflection lead me to wonder, what if the chemicals in white flour products can f*ck with our brains? Could it be possible that these ingredients can literally hijack our thought process and mind control us? That would indeed explain why I fell off the wagon and lost all sense of judgement in only a couple days of consuming the flour. But claiming this food might have the ability to mentally change us is a pretty wild hypothesis which would require a lot of deep digging and dot-connecting, but if that is indeed what is going on here, holy sh*t, that is massive.

    I Quit Eating White Flour & Threw Out All My "Vitamins" - Here's What Happened (Part 1) After I learned synthetic vitamins are poison, the United Nations is behind the Food Fortification program (which drugs the food supply with vitamins) and, like viruses, vitamins have never been properly isolated because they too are a Big Pharma scheme to sell us health made in a laboratory, I began taking a hard look at what I was eating. At this point in my life I had completely quit taking all supplements and I thought I was eating healthy, but upon closer inspection, I was alarmed to discover my entire diet was being synthetically vitaminized and poisoned. Literally everything was tainted, right down to my Paradise Green dehydrated peas… From my bag of rice to my afternoon kombucha drinks, all of the products in my pantry had chemicals slipped in to places least expected - they drugged the peas for f*cks sake! DEHYDRATED PEAS! Many months later, I was in the process of writing The Vitamin Swindle Part 1: The White Bread Scandal, when I learned rats that get into white flour mills won’t touch the flour. The more I researched, the more disturbed I became, specifically regarding white flour and the history of it. I learned about a massive conspiracy between the flour mills, the American Medical Association, Big Pharma and the US government. Long story short, they knew white flour was causing major health issues and they knew living off of it was the cause of “Beriberi”, yet they went out of their way to assure the public it was a great, nutritious product that people should eat for their health. REMOVAL OF WHITE FLOUR FROM MY DIET You see, because white flour, like rice flour, has vitamins dumped in at the mills via the UN “fortification” and “enrichment” program, it is nearly impossible to eat products containing this flour and avoid also consuming synthetic vitamins: (17 second video) So, although I had quit consuming bottled supplements, I was still consuming the same vitamins via the food supply. But after the rat discovery, without hesitation, I axed white flour from my diet. Let me tell you, while not taking vitamins was easy (and saved me money too!), not eating white flour was incredibly difficult because I had to relearn how to eat and, being that I loathed cooking, I didn’t know what to do. I was so used to buying premade health food that I felt lost; everything I was purchasing had white flour (or synthetic vitamins) in it somewhere. With zero kitchen skills, my meals became a head of broccoli with natural butter and Real Salt or diced cucumber with garlic, feta and extra virgin olive oil or a plate of sliced tomatoes and lots of baked potatoes. Here’s an example of my dinner: The first five-or-so nights of being white-flour-free, I sweat like crazy while I slept and my sweat smelled ghastly. It was a strange odor I had never smelled before. I can’t quite explain it, perhaps something like plastic burning in a hot dumpster that is full of roadkill and rotten dairy. It was so foul that I had to run my bedding to the washing machine every morning for nearly a week. No matter how much I showered I could still smell this awful stench for the first couple days. NO WHITE FLOUR, WEEK #2 I woke up one morning and discovered my underwear were stretched out. I grabbed a different pair and those didn’t fit either. What the heck? Did the washer ruin my clothes? When I pulled on my work pants, those didn’t fit either! I realized I had lost weight - a lot of it. I hurried to the closet to grab my belt, threw it around my wait and slid the buckle right past my usual connection hole. I had lost so much weight in 14 days that I downsized one belt hole! I was quite puzzled because I lost this weight by doing nothing other than quitting white flour; no gym and 0 exercise because I traded that time for writing Substack articles for you. I also noticed my facial skin looked more youthful. The bags under my eyes nearly vanished. I told my spouse I think I have the energy of a 20 year old, *wink, wink*. WEEK #3 By the third week I lost another 10-or-so pounds, now my shirts looked a full size too large. But that’s not all, another huge change occurred. During this week I began becoming naturally tired in the evenings. Writing articles until 9pm then watching a documentary until 10:30-11pm no longer worked for me. I was tired at 8, asleep by 9 and up at 3am so I could get in a few hours of writing before work. This may sound like a really insane time to wake up, but I love it. My mind is so clear, I am so focused and the world is so peaceful. I think my best content and research is what I am producing at this early hour. Strangely, even though I was waking up so early then spending three hours working before I go into work, I had energy the entire day. Additionally, my mood had become overall more optimistic about everything in life. I began hacking away at the list of sh*t I have been putting off forever. (Responding to Substack direct messages is on that list. Only 580 more messages to go…) WEEK #4 By the fourth week, my love handles vanished. I pinched my love handle area and could only pinch an inch of skin between my fingers. My stomach began to flatten. I even noticed my face looked thinner and the droop in my chin that I blamed on age disappeared. My shoulders began looking defined again and that sure wasn’t from spending 12 hours a day on a pc. Then something really wild happened… MONTH 1 Around the end of the month, I realized my taste buds completely changed. Everything I loved (especially potato chips and dip, Lord I loved me some cheddar & sour cream chips with French onion dip), became disgusting. After being flour-and-chemical-free for over four weeks, Tostitos tortilla chips were inedible because the chemicals in them burned the sh*t out of my gums. Fast food, even my beloved Taco Bell, tasted f*cking terrible - so disgusting that, for the first time ever, I threw it out after two bites. When my spouse, who is not on board with my diet, ordered a pizza, I took one bite then instead made another baked potato. It was at this time that foods containing chemicals or GMOs began killing my stomach. I dreaded dinner at my parents house because I knew I would be dealing with hours of pain. I was forced to cut restaurants our of my life because, even when I selected the best options, I was still forced to endure hours of torture afterward. (btw, I learned we should never be consuming products like Pepto Bismol, instead eat some nutmeg. It works fast too!) But it gets crazier - I started craving produce. For the first time in my life (I’m in my mid-40s), I wanted bananas and I would think to myself, “some cauliflower sounds good today”. I craved a baked potato without cheese - just real butter, real salt, real pepper and herbs (and organic sour cream because I’m no saint). Even more mind-blowing, cheese, as a whole, stopped being a necessity and food tasted great without it. In fact, I began tasting a plastic-type flavor in shredded cheese (even cheese my better-half shreds from full blocks), which was pretty repulsive so I no longer used cheese unless it was goat or sheep. Then, things got even stranger. I was able to somehow tune in with what my body wanted and my body wanted less meat and more beans. I know, it’s wild, right? I never in my life wanted beans unless it was a can refried bean dip for a bag of Doritos. I began to truly enjoy black beans which I previously hated. [If you hate cooking, the best canned bean manufacturer in the world is Siete. They are who singlehandedly got me to love black beans. Siete has products that allow an anti-cook to enjoy Mexican food and still eat clean without compromising taste. Their products are probably at wherever you shop, plus they are sold on Amazon.com, in Costco, etc. Here’s their site, SieteFoods.com and here’s their black beans:] Another unexpected change occurred around this time: my entire adult life, I have classified myself as running hot. It drove the spouse nuts because I would want to sleep with the window cracked, even in the winter. During the peak of summer I would sleep in the basement because the house was too hot, even with the AC on blast… but this all ended. MONTH #2 At the beginning of the second month, I estimate I lost around 40 pounds! I didn’t realize I had that much to lose because I am an overall slimmer person and if you would have asked me how overweight I was, I would have said, “I guess I could lose 10 or 15 pounds.”. I lost so much weight that people started asking if I’ve been hitting the gym. When I replied, “Nope, just quit white flour and vitamins”, they looked at me like I was a lunatic, but that was ok. I now looked like I was wearing my father’s clothing, so I had to get new everything in a full size smaller. Then, one more crazy thing happened… and, for me, this was one of the most unexpected changes of all… I stopped drinking my beloved whiskey, not because I wanted to, no sir, I love whiskey. I stopped drinking it because I came home from work one day, walked to my whiskey shelf, picked up a bottle of Blanton’s and, as soon as I removed the cork, I realized I just didn’t want it. This is a feeling I had never experienced in my life. I began drinking when I was 15 years old and had drank ever since. When life felt at its worst, I would buy multiple bottles of whiskey at a time. In fact, I was buying so much that the liquor store would save empty case boxes for me so they were easier to carry to my vehicle. So, on this specific day, as I stood at my whiskey shelf, when I didn’t want to fill up my glass, it was as if my mind misfunctioned. As bizarre as this sounds, I tried to talk myself into having just one glass. My odd conversation with myself ended with the decision to not pour the whiskey and instead drink something else but to come back in an hour and fill the glass up. … an hour later, it still didn’t sound good. I was baffled. That was the first night in my adult life that I went to bed voluntarily choosing not to drink alcohol… and feeling GREAT! I wondered if I would feel horrible withdrawals come morning, but the withdrawals never came. I bounced out of bed, ready to seize the day. And when I got home from work on day #2, drinking again didn’t sound good. MONTH #3 By the third month, my life had completely changed. I was a new person mentally and physically. I felt like I was the best version of myself that I could be. Like a superhero, my senses were all heightened and I became even more aware of things I had been missing around me. Let me give you an important example: Being that my spouse and young adult children are not participating in my diet, they eat all the processed garbage. Vegetables and fruit tastes terrible to them because their taste buds have adapted to the white flour diet. I will be writing more on this topic soon, so do it if you haven’t already: Anyway, I noticed that, when they wake up in the mornings they are physically fine however, within 30 minutes of them consuming breakfast (white flour and chemicals) they begin to develop a slight cough; a single cough or a throat-clearing that repeats approximately every 15 to 20 minutes after the consumption of these products. I observed the identical occurrence with my coworkers. I also noticed, after lunch (a second dose of the same toxins), in addition to the random cough, my older son will start slightly sniffling like allergies. At my job, my associate who stops at Panera Bread each morning for a muffin and a coke, needs allergy medication by noon. In the spring and summer she blames pollen, and when the identical symptoms occur in the fall and winter she blames dust. I had never really put 2 + 2 together... “allergies”… Throughout the first five months, I had a total of maybe 3 drinks, and the wildest part was that I cut myself off after a single drink because it just didn’t taste good. Even my top shelf whiskey, Heaven’s Door Bootleg Series, just didn’t do it for me. The one evening I was peer pressured into excessively drinking (buddy’s 40th birthday party), I didn’t enjoy it at all and woke up the next day feeling like hell.

  • Top 10 Garden & Landscape Supplies for a Beautiful Outdoor Space in the USA

    Transforming your outside space into a gorgeous retreat involves more than just imagination; you must also have the necessary garden and landscape equipment. Whether you're an experienced gardener or just starting out, having the right equipment and materials is vital for success. Here are the top ten Garden & Landscape Supplies in USA. You'll need to design a beautiful outside space.

    1. Premium Garden Soil
    Healthy soil is the foundation of any successful garden. To grow colourful flowers, veggies, and shrubs, start with nutrient-rich, well-drained soil. In the United States, you can buy a variety of garden soil mixes designed to specific plant demands, such as roses, tomatoes, and grass. Organic soil solutions are ideal for environmentally aware gardeners.
    2. Mulch
    Mulch is crucial for increasing the appearance of your garden while also storing moisture, controlling soil temperature, and suppressing weeds. Organic mulches, such as wood chips and straw, naturally decompose and feed the soil, whilst rubber and decorative mulch provide long-term aesthetic appeal.
    3. Compost
    Compost functions as a natural fertiliser, nourishing plants by replenishing nutrients in the soil. Garden centres sell pre-made compost, but you may also manufacture your own out of kitchen and yard waste. Composting is a sustainable technique to improve the health of your garden.
    4. Garden Tools
    A solid selection of garden equipment is essential for keeping an attractive outside space. Digging, levelling, and pruning plants need tools such as a robust shovel, rake, and pruners. Choose ergonomic designs and rust-resistant materials to provide long-term, comfortable use.
    5. Garden Hose and Irrigation System
    Watering is essential for a lush and healthy landscape. A high-quality garden hose with adjustable nozzles will allow you to water various plant varieties efficiently. Alternatively, installing an irrigation or drip system ensures that your plants have continuous moisture even when you are not present.
    6. Fertilizer
    Even the healthiest soil can benefit from an occasional nutrient supplement. Fertilisers, whether organic or chemical, supply plants with vital nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Fertilisers are available in liquid, granular, and slow-release forms, allowing you to select the optimum solution for your plants.
    7. Raised Garden Beds
    Raised garden beds create a more regulated gardening environment by enhancing soil quality, drainage, and accessibility. These are especially beneficial if your natural soil is rocky or depleted. Most garden supply companies sell pre-made raised bed kits, which make it simple to set up.
    8. Landscape Fabric
    If you're weary of fighting weeds, landscape fabric is a game changer. This permeable material allows water to travel through while keeping weeds from growing in your garden beds. For low-maintenance landscaping, place it under mulch or gravel.
    9. Paving Stones & Decorative Gravel
    Paving stones and decorative gravel are essential for improving the visual attractiveness of your outdoor space. Paving stones are ideal for creating garden walks or patio spaces, while gravel can provide texture and contrast to flower beds.
    10. Outdoor Lighting
    Garden lighting can transform your outdoor space, adding beauty and practicality. Solar-powered lights are an environmentally friendly way to brighten walkways, emphasise focal areas, and create ambience. String lights, spotlights, and lanterns all create a lovely glow in your garden at night.
    Conclusion
    With the right garden and landscape equipment, you can simply transform your outdoor space into a beautiful hideaway. From fundamental necessities like garden soil and equipment to decorative touches like outdoor lighting, these top ten items will guarantee that your garden flourishes and looks great all year. So, travel to your local garden centre or purchase online to get these must-haves and start planning your dream garden in the United States.
    FAQs
    1. What type of soil is best for vegetable gardens?
    For vegetable gardens, look for soil labeled "garden soil for vegetables" or create a mix of compost and organic topsoil for nutrient-rich planting beds.
    2. How often should I water my plants with a drip irrigation system?
    Depending on the season and plant type, drip irrigation can be set to run once or twice a day for a few minutes to maintain consistent moisture levels.
    3. Are raised garden beds better than traditional in-ground gardens?
    Raised garden beds offer better control over soil quality, drainage, and pest management, making them an excellent option for many gardeners.
    4. Where can I buy quality garden and landscape supplies in the USA?
    Most major hardware stores like Home Depot, Lowe's, and online retailers such as Amazon carry a wide range of garden and landscape supplies. Specialty garden stores often have more variety for specific needs.

  • Sugar: The Sweet Truth and the Big Fat Deception
    Obesity and chronic disease are more complicated than we've been led to believe

    Dr. Syed Haider
    Sugar: the demonisation of a product or ...
    Sugar gets demonized a lot. I used to demonize it too.

    Robert Lustig is a famous pediatric endocrinologist and physician researcher specialized in obesity, who, ever since his video, Sugar: The Bitter Truth went viral on Youtube in 2009, has been on a crusade against sugar (I wondered who funds him and could not figure it out).

    He was instrumental in helping formulate the 2009 American Heart Association’s strict guidelines on added sugar: no more than 100 calories per day for women (6 teaspoons) and 150 for men (9 teaspoons).

    Meanwhile this graph recently made the rounds calling into question the correlation between sugar intake and obesity:

    Image
    Sugar intake, while still much higher than historic norms, had been plummeting for over a decade by the time Lustig went viral with his anti-sugar message in 2009, yet obesity rates continued climbing as though nothing had changed.

    So what’s going on here? Is sugar really the primary cause of obesity, or just one of many rising causes? Or is it more complicated?

    I’ve found that some people feel best when they eat a lot of carbs. Not just a temporary sugar high, but truly better health all around.

    There’s a whole subculture of Ray Peat aficionados who had often spent years on low carb, no sugar diets and felt terrible - until they started eating more sugar, often in the form of whole food carbs, but also added refined sugar.

    On the other hand there are probably many more people who have been heavily addicted to sugar their entire lives, also feel terrible, and quitting sugar and carbs seems to make all the difference to their health.

    Meanwhile, historically, most human societies have gotten by just fine with a significant amount of carbohydrates in their diets, without obesity - just look at the US, we ate less refined sugar 70 years ago, but still dramatically more than any other civilization in human history, and we were not anywhere near as obese or unhealthy as we are today.

    Sugar Consumption in the US Diet
    Maybe that sorta plateau between 1920 and 1980 was just the furthest limit of sugar consumption we could possibly sustain without blowing up into human balloons?

    That’s certainly a reasonable possibility. Looking at this zoomed out graph you can see that what looked like a precipitous drop earlier, just looks like a dent in the long term uptrend now.

    But there’s another subculture of biohackers and optimizers that has found themselves going from sugar intolerant to sugar tolerant.

    Some people have found that when they correct their metabolic dysfunction and remain lean for long enough, they no longer have to be as strict as they used to in order to avoid regaining excess weight or re-triggering type 2 diabetes.

    They can seemingly miraculously eat a normal amount of carbs and sugar again.

    Thank you for reading Dr. Syed Haider. This post is public so feel free to share it.

    Share

    What could explain these seeming outliers? And could this be something we could all aspire to?

    It may be that sugar intolerance (weight gain, diabetes) is just a superficial problem manifesting due to some deeper dysfunction.

    The best candidate for this deeper dysfunction is vegetable seed oils.

    This toxic trash was never used before in human history, until debt driven fiat monetary inflation made it necessary for governments to identify cheaper cooking oils.

    The reason it was never used before was that it tasted and smelled repulsive.

    As nature intended: you see vegetable seeds are not meant to be eaten. At the most they're meant to pass through an animal’s digestive tract and be planted in the earth to propagate the plant species. So unlike the sweet fruits that plants “want” animals to consume from them, the seeds are very bitter.

    Bitterness is a useful signal to animals: it means this is toxic, don’t eat it. If you do you’ll be sorry, it will make you sick.

    The only way we could make the oils that came from crushing those seeds seemingly fit for human consumption was by complex industrial processes involving heavy machinery and a lot of chemicals to deodorize and sanitize the sludge that had previously only been used by sane people to grease the wheels of other machines.


    Now, what we eat for fat is of the utmost importance because fat is what we use to make the chemical messengers called hormones, and even more importantly it’s like the cement in a city: every single cell wall is built out of fat.

    The right kinds of healthy traditional fats from animals and fruits, like olive and coconut oils, will create cell walls with just the right amount of pliability, stability and durability.

    Whereas cell walls constructed out of vegetable seed oils create the wrong kind of cell walls.

    This changes the function of cells, their ability to respond to their environmental/chemical signals and to produce their own signaling compounds.

    The other problem is that the seed oils are inherently unstable and inflammatory, they develop harmful trans fats and carcinogenic chemicals like acrolein within them due to their processing, and they tend to “oxidize” other normal oils around them, so in a way they “infect” other fats and spread their inflammatory dysfunction.

    Some seed oils are labelled “heart healthy” because they are particularly high in omega 3s, like canola.

    However the other problems far outweigh the supposed benefits of the omega 3 consumption (and even the omega 3s themselves should be called into question when eaten in refined isolation from the living food matrix of the fish or plants they originated within.

    Chris Masterjohn has done some great work suggesting that high dose Omega 3s taken as supplements are initially anti-inflammatory, but later lead to a pro-inflammatory state.

    We need to consider that acute inflammation isn’t bad, and chronic inflammation is not the root dysfunction causing chronic illness. What is triggering the chronic inflammation is the real problem, so simply reducing the inflammation, while it reduces symptoms, is not a solution. It is standing in the way of the solution, and likely increasing the foothold the problem has within you, since the body’s immune response is being hampered).



    So it’s entirely possible that the original metabolic sin is the consumption of seed oils, leading to leptin resistance (spurring appetite), and then insulin resistance (with carb sensitivity) - both of these leading to visceral fat accumulation, weight gain and all other chronic diseases.

    There are other chemical “obesogens,” particularly pesticides, plastics, and xenoestrogens, that tend to make us fat and sick, but none are consumed in the tremendous quantities that seed oils are.

    What makes the problem particularly insidious is that it takes as much as 2 years after stopping seed oil consumption to fully clear the seed oils out of most of the body’s cells and then discover to your surprise that you can tolerate carbs and sugars again without going down the slippery slope of weight gain and chronic disease.

    So, certainly many people need to start with low carb because they do not tolerate carbs at the moment. Carbs do contribute to their weight problem right now. But I consider that only half the battle.

    While strictly avoiding carbs, apparently healthy function may be recovered, but resilience won’t not be, until you can once again tolerate an appropriate amount of carbs.

    It’s not possibly to determine what’s appropriate without first getting healthy by detoxing from seed oils, chemicals, chronic infections/infestations, and heavy metals and then seeing what you can tolerate and feel optimal eating.

    For most people it’s probably not the minuscule amounts allowed on a ketogenic diet. and for many people it could be much higher carb intake than they might expect.

    Paul Saladino became famous with the social media username “Carnivore MD,” which he still uses, but he has long since evolved to eating 300+ grams a day of what he considers healthy carbs from minimally processed fruits, honey and milk.

    Share

    He initially felt great on an all meat diet, but after some years began to deteriorate significantly until he added back carbs.

    People who experiment with the other extreme on vegan diets often experience a similar journey of initial profound improvements in chronic disease followed by worsening a few short years later.

    Doing what’s required to get better is hard enough without the trial and error, which is why people save a lot of time and money when they just go straight to someone who knows what they’re doing.

    My choice for people who want an all natural approach that works better than any other alternative, is Hakim Shabaz Ahmed, which is why he now works closely with us at mygotodoc.com/hakim. I can confidently say he is the best in the world at healing people at the deepest levels, because he began with himself and then fine tuned his approach on hundreds of people around the world who were so desperate they had no option but to follow his often difficult to implement advice.



    But what’s difficult becomes easy when you’re certain it will work and not just waste your time and effort. If you can become convinced that after a short but difficult path you’ll achieve everything you ever wanted, it’s relatively easy to decide to pursue it. Doubts are what stand in the way of most people, so it’s a good thing Hakim Shabaz is good at dispelling them. His confidence shines through when he speaks, and he will usually be able to tell patients things about themselves that he should have no way of knowing, because of not only intuition, but a deep understanding of underlying principles, which reveal connections most people don’t even know exist.
