#iron

Latest blood test, low on iron once again. Not from the lack of vitamin B-12 this time, but from my diet. I'm eating iron rich foods, but...most of my diet has tannins that block iron absorbtion, coffee, kombucha, tree nuts of all kinds, beans, fresh fruits with skins on them, nearly the whole checklist of things that inhibit iron.

Since iron is required for pretty much everything in the body and taking away iron is the first thing the immune system does to kill what it doesn't like, I am in a pickle. Oh, pickles have added tannins too!

#Orange Magical #Nature

#Oranges have been called a “ #perfect #food ” and contain an #amazing array of #healing #vitamins, #minerals, #antioxidants, and #phyto-nutrients.

Oranges are high in #vitamin #C , vitamin #A, #B-complex vitamins, #folate, #beta-carotene, #lutein, and minerals such as #calcium, #magnesium, #iron, and #potassium.

Oranges have been known to help #prevent-cancer, lower high blood pressure, fight off viral infections, relieve constipation, keep bones and teeth strong, #prevent-kidney-stones and #macular-degeneration.

Oranges are rich in lime and alkaline salts that help to counteract and prevent acidosis in the body. They are also excellent for the digestive tract and help to remove toxic debris from the colon through enhanced peristaltic action.

Oranges contain a significant amount of #glutathione which is critical for healthy #eye and #lung function. Oranges are very good for #respiratory problems such as #asthma or #bronchitis and #cardiovascular issues such as #hypertension and #COPD.

Oranges act as an #internal #antiseptic to the body and have the ability to purify and strengthen all the organs in the body. Oranges contain #anti-inflammatory and anti-viral properties which are particularly beneficial for those suffering with a cold or flu or an auto-immune disorder such as shingles, arthritis, IBS, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, and raynaud’s disease.

Fresh squeezed orange #juice is a predigested food and allows for immediate absorption of all it’s abundant healing properties. However, be aware that orange juice will lose the majority of its vitamin C content within 30 minutes of being squeezed, so for optimum results #drink immediately. Whole oranges, peeled or cut in slices, are the best option as the fiber and pith is where so many of the phytonutrients and healing properties are contained.

Oranges are an excellent weight loss food due to their high pectin content which also helps to reduce blood cholesterol.

Health is all about energy.
Absolutely intriguing information – this guy has knowledge that will make you think and ponder for days. His reasoning and logic is incredible and sound, better yet, he has the research to back it up. Morley Robbins research is contrarian to the general belief about health and healing, he deep dives into science and research to solve the modern day most wide-spread health issue - why are so many fatigued? Tackling common misunderstandings about iron and anemia, explaining the super importance of copper and vitamin A, showing why magnesium is so needed, so much to learn.
Yes it do get technical and there is a lot of words you have not heard before being used, but hang on, the journey into the cell and the mitochondria will open your understanding of why so many people feel so tired and have health issues.

Hierarchy of reactive oxygen species – by Gutteridge and Hallowell:
A natural bi-product of metabolism that we want to stop from converting from reactive oxygen species to oxidative stress by having our iron and copper levels more balanced. Copper cleans the exhaust of iron and oxygen.

Reactive oxygen species is called stage one
Oxidative stress is called stage two
Even more oxidative stress lead to Inflammation and that is called stage three
Accumulation of so much oxidative stress lead to cytotoxicity or cancer and is called stage four

This builds on the revelation from Otto Warburgs research on cancer as a metabolic disease – “the Warburg effect” - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otto_Heinrich_Warburg which in recent time is promoted by Dr. Thomas Seyfried. Morley Robbins takes this idea even further and explains why the breakdown of the cellular respiratory system happen through his understanding of copper, iron, oxygen and retinol.

"reflection on #Mars the #god of #war whose associated element is #iron. Do you believe that since we built the railway lines, the first in 1827, wars have started to multiply?
And what about buildings containing iron, the material associated with Mars.
The Eiffel Tower in Paris, its construction began in January 1887, the construction site ended on March 31, 1889... I also notice that the more police there are (March) the more tension and provocation of violence there is. , both are complementary

We are also in this the nth period of #Kali-Yuga in the iron age phase "

"World of ironing"

the rules of the game are simple - choose a photo (preferably your own), edit with gimp and tag #sundaygimp on a Sunday ;-) … and follow the tag.

#sundaygimp

(and also #Sunday-photo-edit )

Note: if you do not use gimp, but still want to play along, just use the tag #Sunday-photo-edit and edit the images with your favorite image editor
