Food for Thought

Drinking water is a simple, cheap and effective way to relieve a stressful mind. The brain needs enough water to transport all essential nutrients across its brain-blood barrier (BBB). Without adequate hydration, the brain will not receive all the nutrients needed for one to overcome feelings of anxiety and irritability.

Ultra-processed soft drinks and juice are not a good substitute for drinking water. Sipping a 16 oz. (480ml) cold glass of water as you would a hot drink can positively affect your mood. While drinking water is not a cure for anxiety or irritability, it can help ease the symptoms associated with these feelings.

Aside from the obvious need for drinking water to keep the body hydrated. Water also has another powerful physical effect on the body; it activates our parasymphatic nervous system (PSN). Our PSN helps the body to relax and feel safe.

So, it’s possible, water may be able to activate your PSN as effectively as opioids without any of the harmful side effects common with opioid therapy. Try to drink a minimum of 48 oz. (1.5L) of water (filtered) daily when possible. Spring or distilled water is fine as long as it doesn’t come in a plastic bottle.

All cosmetics contain toxic chemicals and there are no regulations in opposition to their use for the protection of consumers. When applied, they are absorbed by the skin and enter the bloodstream. Cosmetic poisoning starts from the moment you wake up and use oral detergents and bathe with soap and maybe shampoo.

Followed by all the feel good, smell right lotions, creams, perfumes, colognes and deodorants. Last but not least – makeup, hair sprays, gels and/or creams are used before walking out the door. The cosmetic industry has conditioned a massive portion of the global population to embrace vanity because of the billions that could be made from stroking said vanity via cosmetics.

There are no laws and FDA regulations that require the cosmetic industry to perform any test to demonstrate the safety of their products. They also don’t have to share all the product ingredients with the FDA before a cosmetic goes on the market. Anyone who doesn’t use their cosmetics is belittled by society into using them and those who willingly accept their program are unknowingly self-poisoning.

The amount of toxic chemicals in personal care products is staggering (in the hundreds to thousands). That much poison on the daily over decades is more than the body can cope with. Accelerated deterioration of your body is inevitable.

Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) aka electromagnetic pollution are generated by electronic devices and electrical appliances in your home. Constant exposure to EMFs is a main health concern. Particularly because continual exposure over the long-term may contribute to or be the cause of certain health issues.

For example, studies suggest that EMF exposure may cause toothaches and other dental problems via the death of oral bacteria, trouble falling and staying asleep via inflammation in the body and erectile dysfunction via nerve damage, resulting in loss of muscle strength – just to name a few. Make the bedroom in your house or apartment an EMF-free zone.

The potential benefits in doing so, may lead to improved sleep quality, better sex life and fewer dental problems over time – to name a few. How long would it take for someone to recover from EMF exposure? Answer – that’s really impossible to say, it all depends on duration of exposure, methods of exposure and frequency of use at home, work and play.

That said, since the body can heal itself, providing oneself with some downtime on the daily can do no harm. Which brings me back to making your bedroom an EMF-free zone.

This can be done quickly and isn’t very expensive:
● Call an electrician and have the light switch in your bedroom replaced with a disconnect switch.
● Turn your phone and all other mobile devices to airplane mode before going to sleep.
● Choose a mattress without metal coils, a box under your mattress (if one is needed) without springs and a bedframe that’s not made of metal.

The metal coils, springs and frame can act as antennas amplifying EMFs.
