Hydroponic Gardening: Swimming Pool Farms

Instead of water wings and inner tubes, Dennis and Danielle McClung’s backyard pool in Mesa, Arizona, is filled with tomato plants, grape vines and wheat. There’s a chicken coop and a fish pond, and the food that comes out of the pool, from tilapia to tomatoes, feeds the McClung family of five. It’s a system that took a few frustrating failures to perfect, but now the McClungs hope to take swimming-pool farming international.

Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs), the primary type of fat found within coconut oil, have been found to boost cognitive performance in older adults suffering from memory disorders as serious as Alzheimer’s — and not after months or even days of treatment, but after a single 40 ml dose!

Clearly, an investigation of large-scale government corruption by this singularly destructive corporation is long overdue. The U.S. Department of Agriculture has been taken over by an outside organization.  RootsAction has launched a campaign demanding a Congressional investigation.

The organization is called Monsanto.

Does your Bottled Water Contain Nicotine?

First, they deliberately contaminate the municipal water supply. Then, they create and sell products that tend to provide solution, bottled water.

Interestingly, bottled water is more expensive than soda drinks, and it can be addictive, too. It doesn’t really quench your thirst.

Here’s why…

Fast Food: A Fast Break to Expensive Healthcare

I had the privilege of having access to the backend of the most trusted fastfood chain in my country, and I have witnessed several times that their practices do not conform to the image they project on their TV commercials.

This fastfood chain is the favorite of the families of those who have the privilege of working abroad as seafarers. caregivers and domestic helpers, and these believe that bringing their children to these outlets enhances their social status without knowing they are putting their families health in grave danger.

Those who prepare the meals are not necessarily concern about providing you the best service they can. To illustrate this point: early in the morning, these people don’t care where they put the trays why assembling everybody’s breakfast. They just stack them up, on top of the other, while our sunny side ups and steamed hot dogs are already in these trays. This is the very recipe by which we accumulate molds and parasites that would someday manifest as tumors and obesity.

You can’t expect anything better because these people are constantly overworked, e.g. working students trying to finish college, middle managers trying to climb the corporate ladder.

If our breakfast meals are prepared in such a slipshod manner, come back during peak hours…

Worm Farming: Turning Garbage into Gold

Most of the conventional ways we were being taught have one common characteristic: myopic, nearsighted ideas that don’t take into account the underlying mechanism of how things actually work.

In cultivating a food farm, we were being taught to feed the plants directly rather than work on the soil first. The use of manmade chemical fertilizers not only reduces the overall yield over time but they also ruin the entire field and will make it dependent on fertilizers from then on.

Plant Medicine: Useful for Remote Areas

Due to its obvious advantages, eClinik advocates the use of electric current in decisively dealing with all parasitic infections. However, not everyone may be able to do it for reasons like no access to electronic parts supply especially those who are living in remote areas of the country.

In such case, plant medicine may be the way to go. However, choosing this option need some education, i.e. we need to know exactly what particular herb suits a particular condition.
