Government

Register To Vote-It Matters

· ·

Dr. Benjamin Rush was not only a doctor, but also a key player in the American Revolution and signer of the Declaration of Independence. He was known for saying that the 3 most important things are God, country, and family…. in that order. Someone once asked him why family wasn’t #2, and he replied….. “because if you have no country, you’ll have no family.” 🙏
 
The traditional family structure has been attacked mightily over the last few decades and our country and the children (especially!) are paying the price as a result. 😥
 
Civic duty is vital to future generation’s quality of life. Imagine if we all did a little bit. Many hands make light work!
 
There is still time to sign up to be a pollworker or pollwatcher on election day. Your participation matters….. not just in voting, but in the process itself.
 

Keep Your Garden Safe

· ·

Good word this morning. Remember, the government is supposed to be working for us, not the other way around.

⚠️ ALERT – the USDA is trying to entice you to REGISTER YOUR GARDEN!
Their “people’s garden” program is NOT your grandma’s victory garden brochure. It is—in their own words—creating a registry and map of small-scale food production.
🚫 DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES REGISTER YOUR GARDEN. No matter what benefits or enticements are offered.
—
“The USDA expanding its People’s Garden Initiative to include eligible gardens nationwide!
“School gardens, community gardens, urban farms, and small-scale agriculture projects in rural, suburban and urban areas can be recognized as a “People’s Garden” if they register on the USDA website and meet criteria including benefiting the community, working collaboratively, incorporating conservation practices and educating the public. Affiliate People’s Garden locations will be indicated on a map on the USDA website, featured in USDA communications, and provided with a People’s Garden sign.
Thank you #IceAgeFarmer for bringing awareness to this.
First they want you to register your garden!! Next they will start a farmer census for your harvests all in promise to track some #tomatoflu or some other BS outbreak by assuring you they’re the ones keeping you “safe” and then they will enforce a taxation for the volume food you grew for yourself.

Food Freedoms at Risk

· ·

I just finished reading a book called “A Good Life Interrupted” by Sam Girod, an Amish farmer and businessman. It’s about the recent 3+ year (of a 60+ year sentence) incarceration of an Amish grandfather who was convicted by the FDA of selling a chickweed salve.
This 6 minute video is another example of the attempted bullying of another Amish gentleman for selling raw milk.
Friends, if you don’t think our food and natural medicine freedoms are under accelerated assault, you are gravely mislead.
Recall that the 3rd leading cause of death in the USA is medical error, and the 5th leading cause of death is medication use….. and those numbers are rising!
Please. Learn your rights. Learn the Constitution. And learn to take care of yourself (God gave us plants for a purpose…. and they aren’t just for eating….. Revelation 22:2… and the leave of the tree were for the healing of nations. That’s not just figurative speech. That’s literal!) in a manner that honors the temple we live in …. our bodies!
I am an enormous proponent of raw milk because it was key in my personal healing of osteopenia and unhealthy cholesterol ratios 23 years ago. If you need research sources, please visit the Weston A Price Foundation to learn more about healing foods.
Understand that if food and health and healing modalities are 100% controlled outside our own personal abilities, we are slaves to that entity. The Constitution only protects us if we understand what it says and how it works. The more the Constitution gets twisted and trampled (because We the People haven’t defended it properly), the more our God Given rights get taken away from us.
This is more than just voting. This is about getting involved at the grassroots level, and stepping up and supporting our neighbors and friends (like this good fellow neighbor who arrived quickly to film for the Amish gentleman) when they do stand up against the establishment. Remember, it may not matter to you at this moment…. but when they come for you or your family, it will matter quite a lot. I so admire those who stand firmly in protection of personal rights and pray for them daily.
Knowing your rights and the Constitution is Good Medicine.

Trans Fatty Acids

· ·

Fantastic book/chapter on Trans Fatty Acid (Nutrition and Cardiovascular and Metabolic Diseases) ….. otherwise known as the vegetable oil most fast foods are cooked with.
I’m only able to include the link for the teaser without getting into trouble for posting “paid for” material. Nonetheless, there are nuggets just in the teaser.
Trans Fatty Acids are consistently associated with coronary heart disease, as well as sudden death.
Other things TFA’s are good at? 🤔
🧐raising triglycerides (one of the reasons triglycerides are often thought of as the “tattletale” on a lipid panel… it is a marker (usually) of the junk someone is consuming.
🧐lowering HDL while raising LDL ( what we think of as “good” vs “bad” cholesterol)
🧐raising lipoprotein(a): the worst type of LDL that increases risk for blood clots
🧐promoting generalized body inflammation
🧐promoting insulin resistance (which leads to diabetes)
🧐visceral fat (no amount of working out to compensate for diet will get rid of this so you can eat junk and still have 6pack abs)
🧐 heart arrythmias
Why are they even allowed in the food industry? 🥴 Good question! Follow the money. They are cheap, and increase shelf stability of products, making something “stay fresh (ha!)” longer.
You can read what is free to read here: https://www.sciencedirect.com/…/neuros…/trans-fatty-acid
Know better. Do better. Be better.
Take care of that temple….. it’s the only one we’ve got!
