  • The Gut Microbiome Is Important to Health

    The gut microbiome is important to health. And you may be asking; Dane, just what is a microbiome? To which I respond–I am glad you ask.

    When I speak of a microbiome I define it as a  collection of bacteria existing on and within our body. Yes, on and in.  But in this posting I will be discussing gut bacteria.

    A good starting point is with a basic explanation of the gut microbiome. This short video from the Washington Post will get the discussion going.

    The Gut Microbiome Explained

    To clarify, all of the bacteria, fungi, viruses and genes that reside on our bodies and inside our intestinal tract make up our microbiome. They are small microscopic particles that can protect us against pathogens- which carry diseases.

    That is to say Our immune system uses the microbiome to develop itself. But the best thing it does is it aids in digestion.  So it is important for us to eat the right things.

    This subject has been spoken of in an earlier post. I talked about our intake of garlic in Garlic and Gut Health Go Together. This is a good post to refer back to.

    I warned against the habit of many of us to ingest sugar. Our gut doesn’t like it and it harms more than helps.

    Supplements for the Gut Microbiome

    A case in point is Richard. Richard takes a supplement called Curcumin 2000 which helps cut the inflammation caused by his poor diet. Beside eating better, he has discovered, after reading my post, feel your best with curcumin 2000, that he needs to eat better day by day.

    As a matter of fact there are other foods he can ingest to help his gut microbiome. There are fibers found in fruits and vegetables. The gut can use these fibers to feed the good bacteria.

    In addition , he can do a basic flush of his system.  

    This clears Richard’s gut to rebuild the microbiome. As we know the gut includes the large intestine which makes up the colon. And the colon gets rid of your waste.

    Conclusion And Call To Action

    What you need to understand is basic. What a person eats travels through his gut. The gut is ,for the purpose of this article, the tube running from  the mouth to the anus In short, the whole body..

    The gut, therefore, is not the stomach. For proper understanding of health benefit we have to expand our understanding.

    A gut has been referred to as the second brain as it controls our mood, our digestion, our health. The brain in our skull only sends out impulses to our system to operate in a certain way. And the gut determines even what our skull brain can accomplish. 

    Garlic Clove
    Raw Garlic Clove

    Let’s look at a herb known as garlic. Called the stinking rose by some, garlic is really amazing. It has properties which allows it to work as a probiotic for the gut microbiome. 

    Health Benefits of Eating Raw Garlic

    In my research I have found many benefits for the gut. Remember it is the gut, not the skull brain, that affects the body activity.

    I will mention later in this article how to prepare the raw garlic so that you aren’t just taking and eating it like you do an apple or pear. For the moment I will mention a few areas that consuming this herb helps.

    For those of us who are prone to catching colds, a diet of garlic will help relieve that cold symptom. It may shorten the sniffles and lessen the aches.

    In addition it can help lower our cholesterol levels and improve our heart health. This is most useful for those of us who are aging and need to watch ourselves. We need to have good over all health and taking garlic will lead in this direction.

    Then there is the problem some of us have known as GERD. (Gastroesophageal Reflex Disease). This is very uncomfortable, all the acid coming up within the body. Also known as acid reflex. Garlic can help control it.

    There are so many other benefits of eating raw garlic and I will have to include them in a later posting. 

    Preparation Of Your Raw Garlic

    Very few people can eat raw garlic as is. So some ideas are in order. As it is, it can be chopped up and put on salads. Or fine graded and made into a tea. Mince it and put it in a cup of hot water. Seep. And drink.  Does wonders for the throat and digestion.

    There are those who prefer to take it as supplement in tablet form. There are befits in whatever form you desire.

    Conclusion and Offer

    In cpnclusion, thesehavee been some health benefits of eating raw garlic. Not every benefit has been given. Another posting is in the planning stage.

    For those people who can stomach the clove, there is the pill. And that I can offer you a link to purchase. Yet before I do so I will tell you I will get a commission if you use the link and buy the item. 

    But don’t let that stop you from a daily garlic routine. So buy the garlic or use the link to get the supplement. And stay in good health.

  • Mask For Pandemic Protection

    We are entering our third year of the coronavirus period. By now, if it had been normal, we would have some sense of winning. We would have people  healthy and productive. But no, we still need to wear a mask for pandemic protection. Even with the new suggestion that a few places can loosen the mask requirement, wise people still need to consider the ones who are unvaccinated. How safe is it?

    The Problem

    The hospitals are crowded with COVID-19 cases which could have been avoided if only the correct amount of people were fully vaccinated.

    I have posted about this earlier in an article Pandemic Effects Are Long Lasting. and the even earlier one Stay With The  Plan.

    Getting the shot

    If everyone just got the vaccine and wore a mask, by now we would have had made some headway against the virus. But no, there are some who still feel it is not safe.

    The Solution-A Mask for Pandemic Protection

    It is suggested that everyone in public places with other people wear a mask. The mask must cover both nose and mouth. 

    It seems since  there are still some unvaccinated running around, that we have a surge of new cases that could have been avoided. 

    The purpose for hospitals is to care for people who want to get well. By not being protected against a virus when you can be ,is not the action of a person who wants to be well.

    Types Of Mask For Pandemic Protection

    I have found there are types of masks you can purchase. There is the mask you normally see people wearing.

    Mask covers nose and mouth

     And there is the one shown to the left which is a bit more stylish. It also has more reinforcement.  This one I can give you a link to. And since I am giving you a link to the company I get a commission.  You can get the link by clicking the picture.

    Conclusion

    In conclusion, therefore, since there are still so many unvaccinated people running around and not really caring about others ( do on to others as you would have them do to you) you need a good and proper mask for pandemic protection. The two suggestions aboved should help you.

    So the next step for your safety is to use the link  given and go in and buy protection. And stay healthy. Until next time.

  • Pandemic Effects Are Long Lasting

    Youi have to admit it. The pandemic effects are long lasting. Here we go again. After two years we seem to have not made progress.

    Before continuing I must inform you this post contains an affiliate link. If you should choose to make a purchase after clicking on the link I may receive a commission at no addition cost to you. Thank you for your support. 

    The Main Problem- Pandemic Effects

    Usually we have been able to conquer what ever science sends our way. For example, when it concerns shingles, a shot handles Shingles. See the article where I have handled the issue.

    Consequently people have taken advantage of what  is offered. when it comes to shingles. I have heard no negative feed- back such as I have for this Covid-19 shot.

    On the other hand, concerning blockage to corona  is a group of pseudo-experts who trust the small ( I hope it is a small group) section of bloggers on the internet who are  postulating the vaccine available is a plot by the government to control us. Or it is made from a batch of aborted tissue.

    So in response gullible people decide to not get vaccinated or allow their children to get vaccinated.. And they continue meeting in groups without a mask, daring a virus not to attack them.

    What Needs to Be Done

    Consequently the virus mutates and is allowed to run rampant. The pandemic effects are allowed to dominate the world.

    But we can do something about it. We can get the vaccine.

    Getting the shot
    Brave Man

    In doing so, we  set our system up to fight the virus should we happen to get it. But since the pandemic effects for us is lessened–in that we won’t necessarily need the ventilator if we interface with Omega or it’s brother mutation. And it has been reported that the Omicron strain may pass quickly and could boost immunity.

    But don’t let that possibility keep you one of the unvaccinated. The unvaccinated may be the reason we have such a long season of pandemic effect still here. 

    Another way, along with getting the vaccine and the booster, you can lessen  pandemic effects is to take curcumin 2000. It will help your immune system

    Conclusion And Invite

    So, in conclusion, there is a way to lessen  the pandemic effect. You can do it by getting your vaccine and booster. And you can take curcumin 2000, which is highly recommended. Both are. Don’t be in the camp of the unvaccinated who seem to be the prolongers of the present  virus surge
