This is a video report about a NZ farmer who got swine flu and was at death's door...the Dr's wanted to turn off his life support off but his family insisted they try high dose vitamin C...the medics refused...this is the story of the family's battle to get the vitamin C treatment provided against the Dr's wishes...it shows the arrogance of the medical system and their "we know best " attitude. and is a good reason why it's not wise to get ill enough to be admitted into hospital.

Most diet and nutrition "experts" tell you to cut saturated fat if you want to lose weight...BULLSHIT!!!
The body has a really hard time converting unused fats to fat but it is really good at converting carbs to fat.
This ridiculous "fat makes you fat" mantra was created by the low fat food industry to convince you to buy their "low fat" products.
Processed carbs,particularly grains are easy to work with,cheap,have a long shelf life and are tasty...they are easy to convert low fat cereals,biscuits and bars.
Commercial cattle farmers, who are out to maximise profits at the expense of health, feed their animals GRAINS...NOT FAT!!
Grains fatten up animals ,and humans, faster than a really fast thing and they are dead CHEAP.
Grains,especially non organic ones,are sprayed with pesticides in the field ,and with fungicides when they are stored...this makes them TOXIC ,which is cool,, because when toxins are ingested they are stored in body FAT ,and if  you ,or the animals, don't have enough body fat to store these toxins it will CREATE FAT to store them in.
Carbs also store a lot of water with them so it is no wonder animals and humans get fat VERY quickly eating grains.
Cheap finely ground grains also hit the bloodstream as fast as sugar and raise INSULIN levels VERY quickly...Insulin is the FAT STORAGE HORMONE and when levels are high it is IMPOSSIBLE to burn fat.
Grains are the main reason behind diabetes,obesity,fungal problems,food intolerances,digestion issues,arthritis like joint pains,brain fog and much more...do yourself a favour...STOP EATING THEM.

Went to Waltham Place Farm Shop last week for lunch and found this gem of a book in their shop.
It's all about Biodynamic Farming which is FAR superior to Organic Farming.
Biodynamic Farming was the brain child of Rudolf Steiner in the 1920's and is known for it's use of spray preparations and homeopathic concoctions on the soil and plants.
Most of the book concentrates on how to make these sprays and it really is amazing stuff as the farmer,his spirituality,elemental beings and Nature all work together to improve on what Nature can provide on her own.
