The things you learn everyday... i tell ya! From talking to people (strangers and all.....), i find that im constantly learning about things everyday! Some useless, but yet fascinating trivia, which wont really benefit my knowledge at'll... but also....I’ve learnt plenty of other things too lately. More serious things though, that I was completely unaware of.

And the reason im typing this in the health section, is because health goes far beyond Food/ and exercise... i mean that’s a part of good health, and that will get you somewhere, but there’s plenty of other things, to consider when it comes to being healthy.. It scares me silly, that I never knew this earlier…..

And they don’t teach you these kid of things in schools either.

For starters... i was talking to a lady... I have no idea how we got on topic, but she said she didn’t have a microwave.. That surprised me, because "everyone" has a microwave. EVERYONE! She said that she hates them, because they are incredibly dangerous. She said that her friend, had a baby years ago. This baby actually died, unexpectedly, and the doctors narrowed it down to the use of microwaves. The fact that she heated formulated milk in there, was slowly destroying her child. I told her, that this was news too me, and i should research it, because I had no idea... And she recommended it that I did so, and while at it... Research canola.

So that’s exactly what i did. Im not just going to believe everything everyone tells me now, am i?

Im going to research it first! And lemme tell ya! She was so right.. Microwaves are really bad, bad! In-fact they change the making of a lot of food, and research shows that they are responsible for many certain cancers..

Its an unsafe method of cooking food, and the death of young toddlers/babies was actually surprisingly common. Heating milk /dairy/ formulae does change the making of it, and kills all the "goodness" turning it into some manipulated substance, which is highly toxic! Isn’t that unbelievable?? It damages a lot of food... To think that there are microwavable baby bottles, and all that, is disgusting, and the fact that this is not so commonly known is even worst!!

I found this out this year... i haven’t touched a microwave since.

Canola... now, i read that’s toxic also...And my oh, my... i read ALOT! Still...im all confused with this. If this was the case, than it seriously wouldnt be on the market. Right? I do think there was alot of myth inwhich i read... still, I‘ll rather not use it.. I think its safer to avoid this one, and I say stick to the good' ol' olive oil for now. Thats the good stuff!!


Recently i was talking to another lady.. We were talking about avocado's i think... which led us into foods, and health, and i told her that im not too strict with what i eat, and i would hate to restrict myself from all those foods labelled as naughty... I explained that’s what happens when you grow up in a supermarket... your constantly asked, "what’s this taste like??" So i have to try all these new things, to give an opinion..

She said that she was the complete opposite, and she eats foods which are organic, and that have nothing dangerous, in them... She said that her lifestyle is very pure, and that she feels great. We were talking more about her lifestyle, and she said that se will drop something down for me to read...

She did so, this week. Very interesting...a video and booklet. Now this wasn’t about food... Its common sense, that the more healthier eater with the more active lifestyle will naturally be healthier. This booklet was actually about common household items, that you, me, and everyone else around us use on a regular basis.

So my point is that someone who had a really healthy lifestyle can still be damaging their health without realising it, because they are oblivious to the fact that a lot of their house hold items that they regularly , from toothpaste, to shampoo, to talc, to hairspray... everything!! All those common things do, have hidden chemicals and toxins which are incredibly dangerous, and we were completely unaware of it..



Make up... ladies the foundation you rub into your skin, is some man made paste, created in a lab, with dangerous toxins and here we are rubbing it all over our faces.. Even the most expensive brands like estee lauder, have these nasties. Its bad. Hair dyes.. heck, the sun has made my hair lighter. and i desperately want to dye it back to my natural colour. and i read about hair dyes yesterday (in this booklet).. and i knew that there were two ingredients especially, which were really bad in particular... I searched every single hair dye on the shelves.. Every single one had this. One of these chemicals, it can cause blindness, if it accidentally goes into your eye... FACT! proven.. and the other, ruins your reproductive system! Isn’t that crap?

Im shocked! But maybe ill find something on eBay!! Girls get their hair done constantly at the hairdressers… All these neat colours.. MAN! without realising the damage its doing.. Crazy!!

... toothpaste, and mouthwash... every single one had these on the shelves had SLS which is responsible for cancer.. And fluoride (sp?) is also really bad.. Lots and lots of things i didn’t know... Even 100% natural items like talc, mineral oils, are toxic, which is why (and i never noticed) has a warning sign... Oyo vey..!!!!!. Its madness. So yeah, i *plan*..not today, cause i hate wasting things (first use up what i have), to start being more cautious about what i use... The lady (and i learnt her name, so lets call her Kim) brought another brochure. The items listed are safe, non toxic products. She said that she can get me some things if i had wanted, which was really kind. Isnt that kind??

So i asked her how old she was...

I tell ya, all this healthy living has sure paid of... she said she is 64 years old.. Good grief! I was amazed, because if i were to pin point an age i would have said 38? 45 max. Crazy! I told her that she was going to live forever!! She probably will live a lengthy life.. This happened yesterday, and im still.. in disbelief. She looks fantastic for her age..

So yeah... ive learnt a fair bit recently.. This other guy was tellig me he rubs Vaseline on his face every day, and his face.. no kidding, is so smooth... He has a smidgen of lines under his eyes, but that’s about it. He's 50/60.. an old guy, but he really looks good for his age.. This other lady firmly believes that smiling and being happy makes you live longer and look young... i think she's onto something, cause she's in her fifties and she looks really good. Every time ive seen her, (and ive known this women for years) she's smiling or laughing.. she's one happy lady!

Also I also heard that plastic bottles containing drinks are also a bad choice and to go for glass, cause the chemicals in plastic (which is unnatural) can run through to the liquid..

So buddies, health goes beyond diet and exercise... im telling ya. There’s far more involved in being healthy..

Thought ill share..
Isn’t this all interesting?? Did you learn something?? Be careful, you guys!... Sell your microwave..!

And oh, oh... If you cant eat it, then you really shouldn’t be using it on your skin, or using it at
all..


were you guys even aware that there was so much out there, which is so damaging?
Is there anything else out there that you've heard, which is uncommonly known, that you can share and kinda warn us about? Cause i do want to know these things!!




sorry this was long
