“Nutritional therapists are trained to look for the potential underlying causes of health problems, using a combination of clinical skills and, where necessary, biochemical tests. They then work with each client to produce a tailor-made program to address specific issues and help you reach your health goals. This could be clearer skin, more energy, improved digestion or weight loss. Nutritional therapy can also help more complex issues such as overcoming infertility, alleviating migraines or supporting a particular medical condition.”
"Every disease is a manifestation of energy blockages from: unhealed emotions, nutritional deficiencies, injuries or toxic overload. Energy cannot be created or destroyed; it simply manifests into different forms." "It is more important to know what type of patient has a disease, than to know what type of disease a patient has." Hippocrates
“The doctor of the future will give no drugs, but will interest patients in the care of the human frame, in diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease.” - Thomas Edison

Brazil turned desert air into drinking water — using a passive solar-powered moisture harvester made from recycled plants
In the arid interior of Brazil, where water scarcity affects thousands, engineers at a federal agricultural research station have developed a low-cost device that pulls fresh drinking water from thin air — using only sunlight and recycled plant waste.
The device uses a biogel made from sugarcane bagasse (the fibrous leftover from sugar extraction), which has natural hydrophilic properties. The gel absorbs moisture from even dry desert air at night, and during the day, solar heat causes it to release purified water — collected into a sealed chamber via condensation channels.
What makes this system unique is its simplicity. It uses no electricity, no fans, no filters — just biomass, passive physics, and solar energy. In field trials, one square meter of the device produced up to 1.5 liters of clean water per day — enough to support a household with multiple units.
The harvested water meets WHO drinking standards and contains no plastics or toxins, as the materials are organic and biodegradable. Unlike atmospheric water generators, this tech works in low-humidity conditions, where standard tech fails.
Brazil plans to deploy it in drought-hit rural communities, and the design is open-source — so other countries in Latin America and Africa can build it using local crops like maize or agave.
It’s decentralized, renewable, and regenerates itself — a water solution designed for the people who need it most.

🌊 Japan’s Breakthrough: Plastic That Dissolves & Nourishes the Earth! ♻️🇯🇵
Japanese scientists have created a new biodegradable plastic that:
✅ Dissolves in seawater within hours — leaving no microplastics
✅ Enriches soil in just 10 days — releasing nutrients for plants
✅ Non-toxic, carbon-neutral, and recyclable
How does it work?
It’s made from a unique mix of food-safe sodium hexametaphosphate and guanidinium-based monomers.
👉 In seawater → breaks down quickly
👉 In soil → boosts plant growth
Potential uses:
A true game-changer in the fight against plastic pollution — and a win for sustainable agriculture! 🌍💚The

Trish is a Natural Health Practitioner and has a variety of certifications and has her diploma in Holistic Nutrition, providing her with the title of Registered Nutritional Therapist. Other certifications include Herbalist, Specialized Kinesiologist, Metabolic Typing, Functional Diagnostic Nutrition, Live and Dry Blood Analysis. Trish also has her certification as a Life Coach, NLP Practitioner, CBT Practitioner and Past Life Regression Therapist. These all combine Eastern and Western philosophies, providing a more holistic and integrative approach to helping the body to heal. Trish is a member of different associations, which support her various certifications.
Trish has done a variety of workshops for various organizations over the years since first becoming a Natural Health Practitioner in 2007. She has done workshops on Weight Maintenance, Healthy Cooking Tips, How to read food labels, How to Balance Hormones, How to Improve Mental Health, Brain Retraining for Healthy Lifestyle Habits, Healthy Coping Strategies and Stress Management Skills, etc... She also did 2 years of workshops for the Parole Office in Victoria for the inmates who were in transition to going back to the community.
At the clinic where she works, Trish's main focus is to educate her clients on the possible "root causes" of their symptoms and health issues. Trish does not diagnose or treat diseases. Trish has studied the books of Patrick Holford, and appreciates the information and research he provides. Here is a brief description of a Nutritional Therapist from his website:
“Nutritional therapists are trained to look for the potential underlying causes of health problems, using a combination of clinical skills and, where necessary, biochemical tests. They then work with each client to produce a tailor-made program to address specific issues and help you reach your health goals. This could be clearer skin, more energy, improved digestion or weight loss. Nutritional therapy can also help more complex issues such as overcoming infertility, alleviating migraines or supporting a particular medical condition.”
Trish also helps people to become aware of thought patterns and lifestyle habits that no longer serve them and guides them to find the Coping Strategies that best work for them. Trapped Emotions and Traumas are "stuck energies" in the body and cause people to develop unhealthy lifestyle habits in order to cope and numb their pain. When people suppress these emotions and traumas for a long time, a disease will develop as "dis-ease in the body", such as an auto-immune condition or cancer. Other people numb their emotional pain through uncontrollable addictive behaviors. Either way, a person has a painful life with a diagnosed disease or an addiction that leads them to have a life of chaos and drama, in addition to losing the trust of family, friends and employers.
Trish combines the vast information she has learned to help clients regain optimal health. She uses various tools to assess imbalances, stress and symptoms and then makes dietary recommendations and may sometimes recommend herbs and/or supplements to help with the healing of the body, in addition to supporting detoxification. She also works synergistically with other practitioners who can offer immediate symptom relief, while Trish works on helping clients with longer term lifestyle and dietary habits. Other types of practitioners that Trish likes to refer her clients to are: Massage Therapists, Chiropractors, Reiki Healers (and other Energy Healers), Reflexologists, Acupressurists, Acupuncturists, Yoga Therapists, Personal Trainers, etc...
When assessing imbalances or stress on the body, Trish takes a holistic approach so she considers diet, lifestyle, previous injuries, emotional healing and the effects of chemicals that we are exposed to in the environment and in our food. Some of the tools that Trish uses for the assessment of imbalances and symptoms are:
- Live & Dry Blood Analysis
- Metabolic Typing
- Food Sensitivity and Allergy Testing
- Saliva Hormone Balance Testing
- Muscle Testing
*Quantum Biofeedback Analysis is another helpful tool that Trish is working synergistically with to assess imbalances and stress in the body.
