Indeed everything you say is true but there is better than all that is the power of the mind.
If our thoughts are positive in facing the day, then every illness will not easily approach us.

whats next happy thoughts can make you fly because peter pan told you

happy thoughts does not defend people from health problems
infact people living in solitude get less flu's then sociable people.

also happy people that are blissfull day dreamers are more likely to trip over or walk into something due to their blissful unawareness and not having a care in the world

theres a difference between being happy and caring about one self
its better to suggest people should care about themselves as a way to reduce health risks

Yes. It's called placebo effect.      Cheesy

These are two of the biggest pseudo-scientific scams out there. They exist only to peddle their incredibly overpriced snake oil.

Yabut, the medical is way worse, and they are still around.

There is a grand total of zero evidence to show that GMOs are in anyway harmful or that organic food is anyway more healthy.

All evidence shows that recommended levels of aspartame, MSG, and fluoride are harmless.

fluoride is dangerous.
it messes with your thyroid and other things. its why they say dont swallow mouth wash and toothpaste

yes one rare mouthwash swallow may not cause much harm. but that is then used to say suddenly its fine to swallow often because a single swallow is not harmful

EG one portion contains X. company then makes a same gram tinned item become 2 portions that way each portion has X still but now they have twice as much X in the same gram tin as before just changing the 'portion' size

its like chocolate having refined sugar. instead of reducing sugar per bar. they reduce the chocolates bar size.
and then ofcourse people then just end up buying multipacks because bitesize just aint enough anymore

have you ever seen anyone just eat one stamp size cube of chocolate and say 'thats enough thats my daily allowance' and truly mean it and be happy about it, fully satisfied

-eliminate sugary fruits and starchy carbs too (low-carb or even keto diet)
Sugary fruits are fine in moderation, and healthy starchy carbs are good because they keep you feeling fuller for longer and make you less likely to snack on junk.

-avoid GMOs at all cost, and go organic wherever you can
There is a grand total of zero evidence to show that GMOs are in anyway harmful or that organic food is anyway more healthy.

-avoid major toxins like aspartame, MSG, fluoride,
All evidence shows that recommended levels of aspartame, MSG, and fluoride are harmless.

If you need antihypertensives, find which types work best for you and cycle between different types (there are like 7-11 types i.e. different mechanisms of action).
This is terrible advice. There is good evidence for which antihypertensive drugs are most effective in particular age groups, sexes, and ethnicities. You should only swap drugs if it is either ineffective or gives you side effects. Cycling between them exposes you to big swings in blood pressure as you stop one and start another, as well as exposing you to multiple side effect profiles, for no benefit.

if you cant recognise the ingredients by looking at the meal. it aint good for you
if you cant recognise the ingredients label on the packaging. it aint good for you
This clearly can't be good for you, then:

I always liked it when I saw people who saw an E(number) as part of a product and immediately discarded that food. You need to be much more literate, I think. Now there is a century of information, you can ask Google about everything.

Cut out sugar, you get enough from fruit and veg.
-eliminate sugary fruits and starchy carbs too (low-carb or even keto diet)
-avoid major toxins like aspartame, MSG, fluoride, toxic artificial colorants, soy products, food/supplement products from China (high heavy metals risk), big fish/sea food that bioaccumulate mercury


do not eliminate sugary fruits and starchy carbs
lactose(dairy sugars)
fructose(fruit sugars)
glucose(animal fats)
^ they are natural sugars found naturally and unprocessed in food
your body needs carbs. just dont over do it


sucrose(honey and granulated sugar)
^ are processed so reduce how much you consume

aspartame, saccharine (fake non sugars, just sweetener)
^ stay away from(yes eliminate these)

its far healthier to have a cup of orange juice/milk than granulated sugar water(tea/coffee)
its far far healthier to have a cup of orange juice/milk than sweetener sweetened water(tea/coffee)

as for things like flavoured milk(kids milkshake). well thats as bad as sugared/sweetened water as it has extra added sugars

by saying dont overdo carbs. i mean a glass/cup of orange juice/milk. not a whole litre of it a day

My unpopular health tips.

Try to avoid visiting the doctor, all they do is ro push the propaganda that they have lent from the Pharma companies.
Don't allow them to vaccinate you, it doesn't do any good, nd it is designed to damge your immune system.
Drink a few litres of water every day.
Cut out sugar, you get enough from fruit and veg.
Make sure yo get enough salt - you lose a teaspoon of salt if you drink 4 cups of coffee.
Use salt from ancient oceans ( such as Himalayan ), and not table salt with free running agents or sea salt with micro or nano plastics in it.
Use Bicarb of soda to reduce acid reflux - don't buy antacid ills.
Stop smoking or vaping
Don't take drugs - pharma or recreational
Don't use seed oils (vegetable oils ).
High blood pressure is your body trying to cope with a problem - fix the problem, and don't make things worse by reducing your blood pressure.
Get regular exercise and sleep.
There are loads more - for example, eat a cup of raw spinach every day

Remember, I'm not a doctor, and this is not medical advice. It's just the opinion of a 77 year old man with no medical problems, who doesn't take any drugs ever. The above advice may not apply if you have already messed up your immune system as a result of bad advice from your doctor.

They are popular tips to those with a clue about health. That's great advice sir! I'd only add to your list of suggestions:

-eliminate sugary fruits and starchy carbs too (low-carb or even keto diet)
-do intermittent fasting - stable glucose and insulin levels does a lot towards repairing and building good health
-avoid GMOs at all cost, and go organic wherever you can
-avoid major toxins like aspartame, MSG, fluoride, toxic artificial colorants, soy products, food/supplement products from China (high heavy metals risk), big fish/sea food that bioaccumulate mercury
-avoid non-stick cookware covered with fluoride, aluminum cookware and others: https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2015/06/03/non-stick-cookware-dangers.aspx

Artificially reducing your blood pressure with antihypertensives might be necessary if it's a problem you've ignored for some time, but you should still research what the underlying causes might be and try to correct them in natural ways. If you need antihypertensives, find which types work best for you and cycle between different types (there are like 7-11 types i.e. different mechanisms of action).

I'm also not a doctor but the advice comes from some of the best doctors and health researchers on the planet, who expose the many established lies of the medical, government and Big Pharma industries. Two of the best sources of information regarding health are NaturalNews.com and Mercola.com - if health research is new to you, be prepared to be shocked by the degree of corruption and misunderstandings in the medical industry/field.  Angry

Amazing! Thank you for the list, that's a wholesome one. Now it's useful to see how much of these we really observe. It would be helpful to print the list and make it visual, marking the habits you acquire with time

a hang over is not about the liver.
 
livers can regrow and regenerate all on their own. if your getting too drunk too often for a liver to naturally rcover and become damaged. no herb will fix it by sunrise. sorry it dont work that way

a hang over is mainly dehydration
what is important is to be hydrated with water because alcohol does not hydrate you.

what people dont realise is that the supplement milk thistle doesnt give the hangover cure . its the glass of water you use to drink the supplement down with

anyway. if your getting so drunk that your getting hangovers. and its happening regularly.. then maybe its better to look at solving the problem the night before a hangover. EG drink less alcohol and drink more water.
EG drink enough to get the alcohol buzz, but not enough to be messed up the next morning

I understand all of this, but thank you.  I rarely drink any more. Most of my "case studies" are from my college days. Maybe 2-3 times a year I'll abuse alcohol. I also have taken milk thistle plenty of times w/hardly any water and it still helps. I've also drank water w/out Milk-T and it does not have the same effect as it does when taking milk-t. 

This isn't a debate about over drinking.

Really great list here.  The one most important thing I stress as you did, the two people to never lie to, your lawyer and your doctor. If you don't tell your doctor the full truth, they can't help you as well as if you had. 

One thing I slightly disagree with...cleansers.  Milk Thistle is believed by many to be a natural liver cleanser.  My buddy's mother was a nurse and told him about taking milk thistle after a night out of drinking, stating it would reduce your hangover.  I can vouch for this being absolutely a fact for some people (all bodies are different). I have taken it for years and there is no question that it significantly reduces your hangovers. Being an ingredient found in many cleansing kits..is this not proof that they can help assist in cleaning the liver?

Most health problems in the modern world come from food. We're eating worse and worse. I think that in the 19th and the early 20th century we were eating the healthiest. It was the times when receipes were really sophisticated and people preferred a rich diet with lots of meat and veggies but not as much sugar and almost no artificial additives.
Now we're basically eating processed shit with a lot of spices and preservatives and it shows.

I was listening to a doctor and he was saying that in soft drink there are 47 different chemicals that our body has to digest. Teawhitners, milk powder in fact every packed food item has chemicals that's the reason why cancer is so common.
I have 4 chickens in my house, just to get pure organic eggs and I also do kitchen gardening to get some pure vegetables.

the more processing that is required just to make become tasty, edible. the less nutritious it is

IMHO processed food is fine every now and then. They are also what we'd end up storing for emergencies due to the packaging and shelf life. Not something to consume everyday though.

Nutrient loss from processing can be made up with other products. My main concern is we don't exactly know what's going inside the container and thus buying processed is a matter of trust. For example, even a well-known (at least in Asia) luncheon meat brand from China have gone through multiple recalls within the past 2 years.

if you cant recognise the ingredients by looking at the meal. it aint good for you
if you cant recognise the ingredients label on the packaging. it aint good for you
This clearly can't be good for you, then:



Oh my gosh! Every banana I've consumed don't have a label. Could I have been eating counterfeit all my life?!
