YES, THEY PROMOTE OUR HEALTH RATHER THAN DEMOTE IT. FOOD MANUFACTURERS HAVE THOUGHT OF ONE CLEVER DEMISE AFTER THE OTHER, PROMOTING SYNTHETIC AND PSUEDO FOODS WE ARE NOT MEANT TO INGEST - INFLUENCING GOVERNMENT HEALTH DEPARTMENTS AND ALL, MAKING THEIR ARGUMENTS SOUND LEGIT, MAKING THE PUBLIC SICK AND BIG PHARMA WITH THEIR MEDICAL AGENTS HAVE BEEN ONLY TOO HAPPY TO RAKE IN THE PROFITS. BUT AN AWAKENING IS STIRRING THE HEARTS OF PEOPLE WHO ARE DISCOVERING THE BENEFITS OF REAL FOODS: YES OLD THINGS BECOME NEW. THIS IS INSTIGATED BY PROFESSIONAL NATURAL HEALTH ADVOCATES AND MANY HEALTH SCIENTISTS ALIKE WHO ARE NOW SIDING WITH NATURE, PROMOTING IT'S MERITS AND IT'S WAYS.
On this website, I Will Show You Some Real Health Promoting Foods That Are So Beneficial For Our Health That Have Been Drastically Altered Or Replaced (they clash with our natural body chemistry) In Western Countries Like Australia, And A Few Really Beneficial Things Which Have Been Practiced In European Countries, India And Middle East For Centuries That Have Only Just Made Their Way Here To Our Country.
Through the years in Australia – and Western Countries – we have been buying foods that are so different to food staples our Great Grandparents had and our Great Greats. We have come to think of these food as normal when in actual fact, they are not – they are drastically altered and replacements for REAL FOODS our Body and Brain really need to be Healthy.
We have Sugar Cane and Commercial Honey instead of RAW HONEY and MAPLE SYRUP….. Cheap Fruit Juice and Canned Fruit instead of FRESH WHOLE FRUIT…..Trans Fat Margarine instead of GRASS FED BUTTER…..Cheap Nasty Veggie Oils and Toxic Canola instead of OLIVE OIL and COCONUT OIL…..Low Fat Milk and Sweet Yogurts instead of Natural WHOLE MILK and FULL CREAM YOGURT…..Toxic Modern Wheat Bread and Bakery Items Instead of ANCIENT GRAINS (Spelt and Khorasan) Sliced Beetroot In Cans instead of with Other Veggies…..Potato Crisps or Roasted Nuts instead of Raw Nuts…..Commercial Table Salt instead of Natural Salt…..Grain Fed Eggs and Beef instead of GRASS FED. I will let you know why these are so much better.
If You Are Accustomed To Ready To Eat Meal etc You May Experience A Feel That These Foods Are Nourishing.
We Will Start With My Absolute Favorite Shall We?
RAW HONEY
Honey is a sweet, thick liquid made by honeybees.
The bees collect sugar — mainly the sugar-rich nectar of flowers — from their environment
It has a Complex of sugar, including fructose, glucose, maltose and sucrose.
Raw Honey is “AS IS” from the Beehive, Cold Processed, nothing added or altered. It may be Lightly Filtered (only) if you want to experience the Goodness, the Benefits, the Nutrients. It also tastes superb. Single varieties such as Orange Blossom or Clover Honey taste really nice. Many people like Blue Gum or Red Gum. Stringybark, Mallee and Leatherwood honey have a stronger flavor, appreciated by those who prefer. There are numerous other varieties for venturous taste buds.
……………………………………..
Raw Honey Is Rich in Antioxidants
It contains many important antioxidants. These include organic acids and phenolic compounds like bioflavins.
Scientists believe that the combination of these compounds gives honey its antioxidant power.
Raw Honey Is Better Than Sugar In Moderation for Type 2 Diabetics. It has been shown that Raw Honey has
a lower GI Glycemic effect than simple sugar. The Antioxidants in It Can Help Lower Blood Pressure.
Honey Also Helps to Improve Cholesterol
Several studies show that honey may improve your cholesterol levels. Honey Can also Lower Triglycerides.
The Antioxidants in It Are Linked to Beneficial Effects on Heart Health
Honey Promotes Healing Of Burns and Wounds.
Honey Can Act As A Cough Suppressant With Lemon.
Mainstream medications for cough are not always effective and can have side effects. Interestingly, honey may be a better choice, and evidence indicates it is very effective according to PubMed.Com
…………………………………………….
Raw Honey favorably effects our Immune System, other honey does not.
Most honey sold in supermarkets is Commercial Honey which has been adulterated in some way – heat processed, pasteurized, sometimes HFCS (high fructose corn syrup) or Cane Sugar added. Even ‘Organic Honey’ can be heat processed which kills the life-giving Enzymes in it and drastically altering the Nutritional profile of Honey.
This is what most honey buyers have been eating for decades now.
Raw Honey is Delicious, But Still High in Calories and Sugar, so moderation is the way to go.
GRASSFED/ORGANIC BUTTER
Grass Fed Butter Has A Higher Nutritional Profile Than Ordinary Butter And Plastic Spreads (Margarines) Don’t Come Anywhere Close To Good Wholesome Butter. I Did Not Refer To Them As Plastic For Nothing – They Are Quite Similar. Damaged Sunflower And Safflower Oils And Toxic Canola In Margarine Are No Better For You Than Petroleum And Chemicals Used In Plastics. Both Products Go Through Extreme Heat Temperatures, Bleaching And Coloring (yes the yellow color is actually bad for us too).
ECOWATCH.COM has this to say about BUTTER.
Butter From Grass-Fed Cows is a Major Source of Heart-Healthy Nutrients
Butter is basically just milk fat, also known as butterfat.
Butterfat is highly complex. It contains about 400 different fatty acids, and a decent amount of fat-soluble vitamins (1).
Fatty acids are actually more than just energy sources, some of them have potent biological activity.
As it turns out, many of the fatty acids in butter can affect our physiology and biochemistry in some way, leading to major health benefits.
This includes the fatty acid CLA (conjugated linoleic acid). It is popular as a fat loss supplement, and studies show that it can have powerful effects on health (2, 3).
Grass-fed butter contains five times more CLA than butter from grain-fed cows (4).
Butter from grass-fed cows is also much higher in Omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin K2, compared to butter from grain-fed cows (5).
As you can see, butter from grass-fed cows is a much healthier and more nutritious choice.
Butter Contains Saturated Fat, But Who Cares?
Butter used to be considered unhealthy, because it contains saturated fat.
However, this is actually not a valid argument against butter, because the saturated fat myth has been thoroughly debunked in recent years.
Two massive review studies were published recently, one in 2010 and the other in 2014. Both included hundreds of thousands of people.
These studies clearly showed that there is no association between saturated fat consumption and heart disease (6, 7).
Studies Show That People Who Eat Grass-Fed Butter Have a Lower Risk of Heart Disease
The relationship between full-fat dairy consumption and heart disease seems to depend on the country in which the study is performed.
In countries where cows are largely grass-fed, the people who eat the most butter seem to have a drastically reduced risk of heart disease.

OLIVE OIL and COCONUT OIL
If you are an advocate or Low-Fat Diets and Polyunsaturated Oils, hopefully you will think again after reading about the benefits of NUTRITOUS OILS that offer much more than Cheap Veggie Oil claims to give you. The claims are found to be false and misleading. They promise to “save you from cholesterol”……… the Oils high in Monounsaturates are the ones that help to keep your LDL Level Low, not the Polyunsaturates.
They contain too much Omega 6 that places undue stress on your body system and because of the Toxic process those Oils go through at extreme high temperature, the bleach and the coloring, they alter our Metabolism and compromise our heart health through the presence of Homocystiene which is a better indicator than Cholesterol in heart disease according to a Medico who was a pioneer in that field of Medicine some years ago – he was ridiculed for his insight then found to be right.
Canola made false claims too that it has a balance of Omega 3 with Omega 6 and would not be such a problem – commonly referred to as “the healthy oil” used in Barnicle Bills and different outlets. In reality, nothing could be further than the truth because those crops are heavily sprayed with toxic Roundup and the oil itself goes through the same toxic conditions as the cheap nasty Veggie Oils. You would do far better by cutting out excessive food sources of Omega 6 in your meals and including a quality Omega 3 supplement each day, most people need these days.
OLIVE OIL
OLIVE OIL (EVOO Extra Virgin) is loaded with antioxidants, some of which have powerful biological effects. It Has Strong Anti-Inflammatory Properties (there are different types of inflammation in our body that cause different health maladies when not kept in check) we are not speaking about pain – they are different.
EVOO also helps to protect you against Insulin Resistance by helping your body respond well to the Insulin it makes. Researchers have made major scale reports of many people being Pre-diabetic who have not been diagnosed as such, so High Sugar Level I something we all need to guard against these days.
If you are still concerned about Cholesterol, under normal circumstances, this wonderful Oil gives some protection from accumulating LDL Cholesterol. According to PubMed.Com Olive Oil May Help Prevent Strokes. Several large studies demonstrate that people who consume olive oil have a much lower risk of stroke, the second biggest
killer in developed countries. (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24775425)
Many people with Rheumatoid Arthritis have found some relief by cutting the damaging Oils out of their diet which are highly inflammatory, and having Olive Oil in instead. Learn to think of the Veggie and Canola Oils as the dishonest Salesmen they really are (like shonky car dealers) because in actual fact, that is a good comparison – they don’t really care about your health (words are cheap). Remember, those cheap nasty Oils are a hidden cause of Inflammation whereas Extra Virgin Olive Oil contains Anti-inflammatory Substances.
You may be pleased to know that EVOO also has Antibacterial properties you may like to add to protective measures against Viral Infections. There are several polyphenols with antibacterial properties against human pathogens, specifically hydroxytyrosol, and oleuropein, which have also been shown to have antiviral properties.
COCONUT OIL
Helps To Treat Fatigue And Malnutrition - Effective Remedy For Candida - Reduces Risk Of Many Types Of Cancer - Lowers Level Of Bad Cholesterol - Reduces Inflammation And Cures Bruises - Improves Metabolism And Burns Fat - Can Help Cure Chronic Digestive Problems - It Also Helps Improve Circulation
Antioxidant and anti-aging properties: The antioxidant properties of coconut oil come from its saturated fats like capric acid, caprylic acid, caproic acid, and myristic acid. They counter adverse effects of aging, macular degeneration, graying of hair, and sagging of the skin.
Coconut Oil does have Saturated Fat but is a Healthy Fat and 2/3rds of that is what is called Medium Chain instead of Long Chain that most foods with Saturated Fats are comprised of. The healthy Fatty-Acids in Coconut Oil make it one of the most unique foods there are. The Islanders who have lots of Coconut products and are accustomed to using this quality oil are well aware of it’s benefits and the Cheap Nasty Veggie Oil Industry had no right whatsoever to villainize and outlaw it making it look bad. Just have a look at the nature of these Medium-Chain Fats.
Medium-Chain Fatty Acids
These saturated fats are the best things that coconut oil has to offer. Many of you will raise your eyebrows at the very notion of saturated fats but believe me, not all saturated fats are bad. These saturated fats are actually medium-chain fatty acids like capric acid, caprylic acid, caproic acid, and lauric acid, which can do wonders for you. They increase the rate of metabolism in your body, thereby aiding in weight loss. Also, they increase the level of HDL or good cholesterol and lower the level of HDL or bad cholesterol, thereby keeping your heart healthy.
