Is there anything on the planet that is better than home-grown strawberries? When I was a kid, strawberries were literally my favorite food in the world.

Most of the strawberries found in the store are non-organic – which means that they have been sprayed with pesticides. The problem with this is that strawberries have been found to be one of the fruits with the highest levels of pesticide residues remaining in them.

As far as I am concerned – that’s a problem. So, maybe you’re interested to learn about growing your own? Then you have total control of what gets sprayed on them.

Have you ever noticed that home grown or wild-harvested fruit and veg always seems to have tons more flavor? I (and several others) think that a major part of the reason for this is due to the mineral depletion of many agricultural soils. One of the aspects of soil management which has been largely overlooked is that minerals are chelated from the soil by lichens and other microorganisms. ^[1] However, if many chemicals have been used, these microorganisms cannot survive – and so the minerals are not converted into the bioavailable form that they need to be in for them to be absorbed by the plant – and then by us.

This may also be the reason why properly grown organic produce is often darker in color. Interesting, isn’t it?

😳 Tinnitus And Brain Health?

After 47 years of studies and countless brain scans done on more than 2,400 tinnitus patients, scientists at the MIT Institute found that in a shocking 96% of cases, tinnitus was actually shrinking their brain cells.

As it turns out, tinnitus and brain health are strongly linked.

Is because they are using something called "the wire method", a simple protocol inspired by a classified surgery on deaf people from the 1950s...

The #1 Muscle That Eliminates Joint And Back Pain, Anxiety And Looking Fat

By Mike Westerdal CPT

Can you guess which muscle in your body is the #1 muscle that eliminates joint and back pain, anxiety and looking fat?

This is especially important if you spend a significant amount of time sitting every day (I do, and this really affects me in a big way!)

Working this "hidden survival muscle" that most people are simply not training because no-one ever taught them how will boost your body shape, energy levels, immune system, sexual function, strength and athletic performance when unlocked.

If this "hidden" most powerful primal muscle is healthy, we are healthy.
