Your words can have a large impact on someone. Like mom used to say, “If you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all.” Consciously consider ALL of the words that come out of your mouth today. If you need to make a negative remark, criticize the action – not the person. People may do stupid things, but they are not stupid. Your words of affirmation not only bring somebody up when they’re feeling down, your words will be cherished for a lifetime.

The challenge facing most farmers today is that conventional agriculture has decimated the topsoil with tilling and synthetic fertilizers, which disrupt and destroy the microbial life necessary to grow nutrient-dense food. Mycorrhizal fungi grow in healthy soils and are responsible for nutrient transfers between plants and soil biology. The most critical thing in a plant’s life is its relationship with mycorrhizal fungi, which is why tillage and synthetic chemicals should be avoided. The five basic principles for building a healthy soil ecosystem are: not disturbing the soil microbiome, protecting the soil surface with cover crops, diversification, maintaining living roots in the ground as long as possible and integrating livestock and insects.

For change to occur, farmers must decide they want to change, and consumers must demand nutrient-dense foods produced in a regenerative manner that benefits the ecosystem as a whole. The farm program keeps farmers trapped in the conventional model, which destroys soil and locks them into a mono-crop system with dwindling financial returns. childrenshealthdefense.org

When the spinal bones are improperly aligned (subluxations) this causes a physical form of nerve stress that adversely impacts the body’s healing potential. The stress hormone cortisol elevates when physical nerve stress creates a movement awareness deficiency and therefore disturbs the body’s potential for healing.

Daily trauma like sports activities and common accidents at home or in the car are macro traumas. Less noticeable traumas like repetitive motions, improper sleep habits, and bad posture are micro traumas and also cause spine and nervous system damage. Bad posture is another health epidemic getting little attention. It degrades the health of the spine and can lead to diminished brain and organ function. The brain, spinal cord, and all organs are critically reliant on the health of the spine for optimal function.

Nobel Prize award winner Dr. Roger Sperry refers to the spine as a motor which drives the brain. His research concludes that movement within the spine is responsible for 90% of both the stimulation and nutrition to the brain. Just 10% of brain energy promotes healing, immunity, metabolism, and thinking.

Eating a lot of Brussels sprouts and other cruciferous veggies may help protect against cancers of the stomach, lungs, kidney, breast, bladder, and prostate. Crunchy veggies like Brussels sprouts may also help you stave off other health issues, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart disease, and diabetes. Brussels sprouts also have carotenoids, colorful pigments found in plants, which are good for your eyes and they’re low in oxalates!
