Love this article!

Instead of the typical offerings of deep-fried fare, restaurants should offer children smaller portion sizes from the main menu.

Any else still got some mould in your house? Here is a natural way to remove it!
I would like know if it helps or not, so leave a comment:)

Remove the source: Kill and remove the mould in the home.

Killing the mould spores and removing mould can be a difficult task. Hundreds of products are marketed to profess in killing 99.9% of germs and mould but many could not be further from the truth. Bleach does not kill mould, it only bleaches it and the roots are still embedded allowing the mould spores to continue growing. Clove Leaf Oil will kill it but it will not remove it from the surface on it’s own. After the mould has been killed with Clove Leaf Oil you will need to use a little elbow power to remove it.

Step 1. Killing the mould: A mixture of clove leaf oil and water is the best and safest way to remove mould and prevent it from resurfacing but this mixture should not be used like regular cleaners because it requires contact time to kill the mould spores. It is important to wipe the mould surface area with a dry micrafibre cloth and then spray the area with the clove leaf Oil mixture ingredients as shown below. If attacking mould in the shower, it is best to do this at night time allowing plenty of contact time for the clove leaf oil to attack harmful mould spores before you attempt to remove it and expose yourself to the mould spores. If the mould is in other areas, it is best to spray the affected area and leave for half an hour and then wipe the area with a cloth followed by spraying the area again and leaving it for several days, giving it an opportunity to kill, dry, crumble and drop off.

Clove leaf oil mixture ingredients for killing mould:

half teaspoon 100% pure clove leaf essential oil
500ml water
Plastic spray bottle

Step 2. Removing the mould: Remove the dead mould with a mixture made with seven parts vinegar and three parts water applied with a microfibre cloth and scrub. Effective mould removal is best achieved by mechanical sources such as the physical action used with cloths, vacuums, brushes and high pressure cleaners.

Step 3. Mould prevention: When the mould has been removed, consider what sources have contributed to the mould build up and make attempts to change these things in your environment to prevent it from building up again. Spraying the area again after the area has been cleaned will help prevent the mould from resurfacing. It is suggested that you include this product as a regular cleaning item in your bathroom.

What is the difference between clove bud oil and clove leaf oil and which one is best for killing mould? Eugenol is the active component in these oils which attack and kill mould spores. It is antifungal, antimicrobial and antiseptic properties. Clove bud oil contains approximately 60 – 85% eugenol, whilst clove leaf oil contains 80 – 85% eugenol so it stands to reason that clove leaf oil will do a better job.

Healthy Aging

As I age, I have become more and more interested in supporting healthy aging. Healthy aging involves maintaining physical and mental health, as well as quality of life. Naturopathy can help with this, using diet and lifestyle advice, using cues from “blue zones” (where people regularly live long healthy lives). If you want to make quicker progress or address particular chronic health issues, we will target strategies to support enhancing microcirculatory and endothelial (blood vessel) lining repair. This could involve specific foods, and nutritional and herbal medicine supplementation where needed.

I would love to work together with you on what I have found that supports healthy aging, and share what the research shows. Want to learn more? Book introductory call and we can chat!
