Very recently, I have had a number of experiences that have made me think about what truly matters in life.

Love, forgiveness and gratitude is all we really need to have have a wonderful and abundant life. Yes, I'll admit food and a warm bed are also nice too.

It's easy to get distracted with material things that don't matter. When we get consumed by technology and chase fancy things, we lose sight of what truly matters, we forget how beautiful the world around us actually is.

Appreciate each and every single second. Live in the moment. Forgive those who have wronged you. Forgive yourself. Love and respect yourself. Show kindness to others. Nurture nature and spend more time in it. Love unconditionally. Be grateful.

Now get out there and enjoy life!

We are led to believe that you can be minding your own business, walking down the street, completely healthy and 'catch' a disease. We are told this occurs from being exposed to a pathogenic bacteria or 'virus'.

If you can 'catch disease' then you should be able to 'catch health'. By rights, the germ theory cannot be a one way street. It cannot only be; good health --> bad germ --> disease. It should go the other way too; disease --> good germ --> good health.

Show me one instance documented in the literature, where a diseased person walking down the street got exposed to a good bacteria or 'virus' and had their disease magically disappear.

Do you know why you've never heard someone tell you they miraculously caught 'good health', because no one can, just like no one can catch bad health.

If disease is contagious, then good health should also be contagious. Why have we never had a pandemic of a good virus or bacteria spreading around the world making people spontaneously healthy?

Good health isn't caught, it's earned. Disease isn't caught either, it's also earned. How do you earn disease? By eating shit, thinking shit, drinking shit, breathing shit, taking drugs, lathering your body in toxic chemicals, sitting in front of a desk indoors all day, living in fear, living in a toxic Western society, being stressed, being disconnected from nature, being scared of the sun, being in a dysfunctional relationship, working in a slave job, being in debt, being exposed to poisons sprayed on food, in the air and in the water.

If you continue abusing yourself day in day out, eventually something's gotta give.

When you get sick its easier to blame it on a germ, rather than the things mentioned above. Why? Because when you blame it on a germ, you don't have to worry about changing a single damn thing in your life.

People think the answer to the problem is taking something to 'kill the germ' or to 'inject themselves with health'. The real answer is to start treating the body and mother nature with some respect.

Nature doesn't do disease, humans do.

Health is an inside job.

Happiness is an inside job.

Fancy pills and potions and gadgets and other interventions are great, but when all is said and done, the only thing that can heal you is you!

One person might see disease as suffering, while another might see disease as healing. Which one is going to achieve great health first?

Only you can change your thoughts, your diet, your lifestyle and your habits. Not even the best practitioner in the world can do that for you.

The healing power of nature is inside every single one of us.

The body has a remarkable capacity to heal itself when we give it needs, remove what it doesn't and get out of the way.

I'm surprised the authors of this paper didn't conclude that 'rudeness' was caused by a pathogenic, contagious, replication competent, sub-microscopic particle - ie a virus.

I have a question.

There are many countries where butchers sell meat unrefrigerated.

Why aren't people getting sick when buying from these markets?

Thailand legalised cannabis on June 9th, 2022, a move which has been largely embraced by many Thai people.

Cannabis is available almost everywhere, from dedicated dispensaries and mobile street vendors to stalls in shopping centres like the one pictured.

There are many positives to come out of this unexpected decision to legalise cannabis (a plant which has been used traditionally for hundreds of years by the Thai's). Tourism is booming, tens of thousands of jobs have been created and people can get access to this herbal medicine without fear of spending decades in prison.

What do you think about cannabis being legalised in countries like Thailand? Do you think other countries should follow suit or should it remain a controlled substance?

The deadliest and most highly contagious pandemic the world has ever seen and I've never had "it".

I would consider myself a "high risk" individual.

I had pneumonia as a child and multiple times throughout my late teens and early 20's.

In my mid 20's, I lived in Melbourne for almost 4 years. During that time I had pneumonia three times and multiple bouts of influenza every year without fail.

In 2018 I had a snowboarding accident and damaged my lungs.

If there was a highly infectious particle floating around, I should have been one of the first people to get struck down. Yet somehow over the last 3 years, I've been fine.

For more than 10 years, I was constantly sick. Not once in that time did I "give" anything to my partner.

Why? Because illness isn't contagious. No one "catches" anything from anybody.

Why was I so sick for all those years? I smoked, I drank heavily, I didn't exercise and I ate shit every night. My body was toxic so it mounted recurrent detoxification processes to purge the toxins out of my body.

I now eat organic, exercise, meditate and spend time in nature. I haven't smoked or drank in almost 6 years. I don't get "sick" like I used to. This isnt because my immune system is strong (that concept is a complete fallacy). I'm healthy because I don't poison myself anymore.

You can't catch a cold or flu, but you can certainly earn one.

Everyone in Japan wears a mask, everywhere, all the time. I'm not sure if it's out of fear of catching something, or fear of authority.

They can't be scared of catching anything (which you can't by the way) because they take their masks off as soon as they sit down in packed restaurants.

I've also noticed no one wears a mask in the onsen, where dozens of naked men are packed together shoulder to shoulder in the same room.

I wonder how many cases of transmission have been "claimed" to occur in onsens around the country?

A fearful and scared population is an easy one to demoralise, control and oppress.

Japan is just not the same anymore, its sad to witness.

Masks do nothing. Why? Simply because you can't protect against something that isn't transmissible.

A recent cochrane review, the gold standard of medical science found that masks do nothing. What a surprise!

Does this mean that those who have been wearing a mask over the last three years are science denying conspiracy theorists? Maybe so.

I've copped so much shit for not wearing a mask. I was verbally abused on many occasions, ostracised and made to feel like an outcast in my work place, had the police called on me whilst walking my dog in the park and a range of other reprehensible acts.

I wonder what all of my "colleagues" who have been walking around in a face nappy since this shit show began are thinking now? Are they going to double down and defend masks or admit they were wrong and apologise?

I have been nothing less than disgusted over people's behaviour around masks, thinking they were following the science and "doing the right thing". They had this air of arrogance and superiority about themselves. I've never seen such exhibits of childlike behaviour from grown adults.

This whole time all mask wearers have been doing is virtue signaling, demoralising themselves and society and throwing away their self respect.

There never was any science about masks, and this was evident from day one. If you chose to push this agenda, you did so because people in authority told you to, despite there being no evidence to support it.

It's truly frightening to see what people will do without question simply because they were ordered to.

I guess mask-holes must be feeling pretty embarrassed right about now.

How any health professional who pushed this garbage is going to regain the respect of the general public is beyond me. If they couldnt correctly interpret the data on masks, then how can they be trusted to interpret data on any other health related intervention?

Science is a method where an independent variable (the cause) is manipulated to observe the changes that occur to dependent variables (the effect).

This method, despite its downfalls, is the best thing we have to try and explain observed phenomenon in the world around us.

To claim X causes Y, X must be shown to exist in nature first. An indirect experiment that produces X through man made means, cannot be used to explain natural phenomenon. Additionally, observing Y (the effect) cannot be used as proof of X.

This is precisely what has been done to try and justify the existence and function of things like vitamins, viruses, proteins, DNA, genes, cellular organelles etc.

All of these things are based on pseudoscience dressed up as science to fool and manipulate a gullible public.

This podcast with Dr. Jordan Grant, Dr. Jerneja Tomsic and Dawn Lester is a must watch for anyone trying to get a better grasp on what science is and what it is not.

Do vitamin deficiencies really cause disease, or is something else going on?

It is generally accepted that when people become deficient in a vitamin, disease arises because the cells can't perform their normal metabolic functions. But is this really the case?

Let's look at beriberi, the disease said to arise from a deficiency of vitamin B1. When people ate a diet consisting mainly of polished refined white rice for prolonged periods of time, they developed neurological and cardiovascular symptoms. When they ate the bran layer of whole grain unprocessed rice, their symptoms went away.

In the early 1900's, doctors and scientists claimed this was because there was an essential vitamin (B1) lacking in the polished rice, resulting in the deficiency disease, beriberi. However, many scientists and doctors around the same time such as Nobel prize winner Christjaan Eijkman disagreed. He discovered polished rice caused beriberi and said it was not a deficiency disease, but rather a toxicity disease, arising from a build up of toxins present in the polished rice, the antidote to which, was contained in the bran layer. 

Breastfed infants developed infantile beriberi when their mothers ate a diet of polished rice. It was claimed this was because the milk was deficient in vitamin B1, however many others suggested it was due to a toxin present in the milk. When mothers stopped breast feeding their children and fed them other foods also deficient in B1 like sweetened condensed milk, the beriberi rapidly resolved.

This finding is incredibly important because it proves that infantile beriberi is not caused by a deficiency, but rather a toxin present in the milk.

Between the 1930s and 50's dozens upon dozens of papers were published by scientists and medical doctors in Japan about infantile beriberi being caused by a toxin and not by a vitamin deficiency. The following quotes provide a clear example of their position on the matter. 

Quote "Beriberi seems to be generally accepted in America and Europe simply as the equivalent for avitaminosis B, just as scurvy is for avitaminosis C. In this country we, especially pediatricians, who deal with different forms of avitaminosis B, cannot accept this view".

Quote "What is the best treatment for fatal infantile beriberi? Even a massive dose of thiamine (B1) may fail to cure it. Some cases could be cured, if they were weaned immediately and fed a very diluted gruel of polished or thiamine free rice; because they had been transferred from poisonous milk to non-poisonous food. Infantile beriberi is not so much a thiamine-deficient disease, as the result of acute poisoning".

Many medical doctors in the West also shared this view. These papers provide further insight 1, 2, 3.

Long story short, when a food is processed components (let's call them "vitamins") are removed from the food, resulting in incomplete metabolism. This results in a build up of intermediate metabolites which cause toxicity and disease. The "vitamin" is the antidote to the poison so to speak, by facilitating complete metabolism of the food.

In the case of polished rice, the toxic metabolite is known as methyl glyoxal. When this toxin was injected into animals, it resulted in symptoms characteristic of beriberi.

Vitamin deficiency does not cause disease, toxicity does. If deficiency caused disease, then why don't people who fast for 30, 60, 100, 200 days develop scurvy, beriberi and pellagra?

This is just one example. There are countless papers published on other deficiency diseases being caused by toxicity, not deficiency. It's time to rethink our understanding about nutrition.

Episode 70: Dr. Lawrence Palevsky - Childhood Infectious Diseases

https://www.humanley.com/blog/episode70

Dr. Lawrence Palevsky is a New York State licensed pediatrician, who utilizes a holistic approach to children’s wellness and illness. In this podcast, Dr. Palevsky discusses why infectious diseases in children like influenza, chickenpox, measles etc are not contagious. He provides insight into what these diseases are, what causes them, and why they seem to "spread" throughout the community. He also explains how vaccinations might actually be working to prevent these diseases being expressed in children. 

Dr. Palevsky received his medical degree from the New York University School of Medicine in 1987, completed a three-year pediatric residency at The Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City in 1990, and served as a pediatric fellow in the ambulatory care out-patient department at Bellevue Hospital, New York City, from 1990-1991. Since 1991, his clinical experience includes working in pediatric emergency and intensive care medicine, in-patient, and out-patient pediatric medicine, neonatal intensive care medicine, newborn and delivery room medicine, and conventional, holistic and integrative pediatric private practice. Dr. Palevsky is a diplomate of the American Board of Integrative Holistic Medicine, and Past–President of the American Holistic Medical Association. He received his pediatric board certification in 1990, and passed his pediatric board recertification exams in 1997, 2004, and 2011.

You can hear Dr. Palevsky on his weekly podcast, Critically Thinking with Dr. T & Dr. P on Thursday evenings at 7 pm eastern time, and can listen to more of his podcasts and interviews by visiting, www.drpalevsky.com

This is a chart of just some of the supposed nutritional biochemical pathways in the body. I remember being fascinated learning about this stuff in my undergraduate degree. I memorised these pathways and then taught subjects on it at universities and colleges. I thought it was all "scientifically proven".

Little did I realise that no one has ever seen these pathways, nor proven their existence. They are just a construct, a model, a "best guess", and that's okay. What's not okay is to pass this stuff off as proven fact. Are these things really happening in the body or is it just a belief system humans invented to explain what they think is going on?

I'm not saying these cartoon drawings aren't useful to try and make sense of human physiology, but how closely do they reflect reality?

I'm not so sure "science" can ever tell us what's really going on inside the human body. It's one of the many mysteries of the universe and maybe, just maybe, it's not meant for us to ever know.

A Japanese Hotel has made international headlines after Legionella bacteria was detected in the water of its onsen. The bacteria present in the water was 3700 times the legal limit.

The article states that the water was only changed twice per year but should have been changed weekly.

Legionella is said to be the cause of Legionnaires disease, a serious form of bacterial pneumonia. It is claimed people become infected after inhaling water vapour containing the bacteria.

If you have ever been to an onsen, you are constantly inhaling water vapour. I couldnt think of conditions more ideal to be exposed to this so called "pathogen". If Legionella causes disease when inhaled, why weren't people bathing in the onsen developing Legionnaires disease?

The owner of the hotel said "I thought that legionella bacteria was a common bacterium that could be found anywhere. I used the baths myself, even after the bacteria were detected".

Despite this, the owner never got sick and there are no reports of any of the guests who bathed in the water teeming with such a highly "pathogenic bacteria" ever becoming sick.

How does germ theory explain this away?

This morning my partner and I conducted a little experiment. We decided to see how much sweat we lost after spending just 20 minutes in the onsen. We weighed ourselves immediately before and after.

You might be surprised to learn just how much sweat we actually lost in such a small amount of time. I lost 600 ml, she lost 300 ml.

I've been having at least one onsen every day, sometimes two for the last 10 days and I have noticed a dramatic difference in my overall health and wellbeing.

How could this be working? When we sweat, in a sauna, an onsen or whilst exercising, our body excretes highly toxic water soluble chemicals like organophosphates and pyrethroids. Our skin is after all, the largest organ of elimination.

Dr. Marc Cohen, who has appeared on the Humanley podcast, recently published a paper showing high levels of toxic chemicals being excreted in the sweat of people in an infrared sauna and during exercise. This was the first study of its kind.

Results like this really make you think twice about what's going on when we get a fever. Is our body really trying to raise its core temperature to "kill germs" when we are sick with a cold or flu, or is it trying to augment the detoxification process?
