🍊🌿Turkish delight aka Lokum & our first version of it: the delicious "thc orange ginger" in the background of manuka honey and turmeric.

🍊Lokum is a candy made from starch gel.
Kind of squishy and melty cube of Heaven in the throat chakra...
Each piece is sweet and light to the very center.
Lokum is like a "Thousand and one night” fairytale in one piece. The most interesting thing about Lokum is the rich and easy ability to build up flavor quash. This dessert can be easily combined with herbs, extracts, oils and all gifts of nature which makes lokum a strong player for health... if only we remove white sugar from it and replace it with a healthy one...

🍊A bit about orgin of your delight:
Lokum dates back around 500 years with the legend of its inception coming from Ottoman Court and Sultan Abdul Hamid.
The story goes that Sultan Abdul was having difficulties with his many wives and thought that the secret to winning their hearts would be through stomach.
Under this assertion, Sultan summoned the greatest confectioners within his empire to create a dessert that would be so delicious that it would create harmony and peace between the women within the palace. The plan worked...

So what about your plan 🤔

Ginger & the benefits :

🌱Maintains Normal Blood Circulation. Ginger contains chromium, magnesium and zinc which can help to improve blood flow, as well as help prevent chills, fever, and excessive sweat.

🌱Remedies Motion Sickness. Ginger is a known effective remedy for the nausea associated with motion sickness. The exact reason is unknown, but in a study of naval cadets, these given ginger powder suffered less.

🌱Improves absorption. Ginger improves the absorption and stimulation of essential nutrients in the body. It does it by stimulating gastric and pancreatic enzyme secretion.

🌱Cold and Flu Prevention. Ginger has been used for thousands of years as a natural treatment for and flu around Asia.

🌱Combats Stomach Discomfort. Ginger is ideal in assisting digestion, thereby improving food absorption and avoiding possible stomach ache. Ginger appears to reduce inflammation in a similar way to aspirin and ibuprofen

🌱Colon Cancer Prevention. A study at the University of Minnesota found that ginger may slow the growth of colorectal cancer cells.

🌱Reduce Pain and Inflammation. Ginger contains some of the most potent anti-inflammatory fighting substances known and is a natural powerful painkiller.

🌱Fights Common Respiratory Problems. If you suffer common respiratory diseases such as a cough, ginger aids in expanding your lungs and loosening up phlegm because it is a natural expectorant that breaks down and removes mucus. That way you can quickly recover from difficulty in breathing.

🌱Ovarian Cancer Treatment. Ginger powder induces cell death in ovarian cancer cells.

🌱Strengthens Immunity. Ginger helps improve the immune system. Consuming a little bit ginger a day can help foil potential risk of a stroke by inhibiting fatty deposits from the arteries. It also decreases bacterial infections in the stomach and helps battle a bad cough and throat irritation.

🌱Combats Morning Sickness. Ginger has demonstrated a success rate of 75 percent in curing morning sickness and stomach flu.

Tumeric & the benefits :

🌱Anti-Inflammatory. The best-known health benefit of turmeric is its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, giving it the power to alleviate swelling and pain in conditions such as arthritis.

🌱Boosts Immunity. The immune system is responsible for protecting the body against pathogens that can cause disease and infection. Turmeric has been shown to be one of the best foods to maintain, protect, and boost immunity, reducing the risk of falling ill. Turmeric has antiviral, antibacterial and antimicrobial properties.

🌱Pain Relief. Turmeric can ease pain and is used as a pain reliever for arthritis pain. This has been studied in several trials, particularly for patients with arthritis.

🌱Potent Antioxidant. Turmeric has antioxidant properties that help fight free radical damage and oxidative stress. Oxidative damage is believed to be one of the mechanisms behind the development of numerous diseases and aging. Curcumin is a potent antioxidant that can help neutralize free radicals. Aside from that, curcumin may boost the activity of antioxidant enzymes in the body.

🌱Improve Brain Function. Curcumin can improve and boost levels of the brain hormone brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), which promotes the growth of new neurons and wards off many degenerative processes in the brain. Hence, turmeric has been used to attempt to prevent diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease.

🌱Lower Heart Disease Risk. Curcumin plays a major role in the prevention of heart disease. Its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties can improve the function of the endothelium. Moreover, it lowers the level of low-density lipoproteins (LDL) or the “bad” cholesterol. This can help to reduce the risk of developing heart disease and even stroke.

🌱Aids in Digestion. Turmeric also supports enzymatic reactions, muscle movement, acid production, and optimal absorption of nutrients in the gut.

The Science behind the Herb⚗️🍀

🍀Though our ancestors are likely to have had a very good understanding of therapeutic potentials of a great many plants, today many of us are disconnected from nature. However, most people have a good idea about the effect of a certain
”herb” produces! But how does Cannabis sativa produce its effect?

All Thanks go to…

🧬Cannabinoids

The plant is home to 61 unique cannabinoids, and these are part of the 400 chemicals present within the plant.
🔬Δ9THC is the most common psychotropic constituent in Cannabis.
Within Cannabis we see other psychotropic constituents too, including Δ8THC, 11-hydroxy-Δ8THC and 9-nor-9beta-hydroxyhexahydrocannabinol (beta-HHC).

🧬Cannabinoid Receptors

Cannabinoid receptors were first „dicovered” in 1984, although their existence had obviously long been hypothesised. We see them throughout the central nervous system, with particulary high numbers in the cerebellum and basal ganglia. We see a very low levels or, or indeed no receptors in the brain stem.
A type of receptor known as CB1 is the one which brings about the psychotropic effects when Cannabis is introduced to the body.

🧬Endocannabinoids

Endocannabinoids are a fascinating area of study and these are endogenous compounds (compounds that occur naturally in our body) that activate the same cannabinoid receptors as the psychotropic cannabinoids in Cannabis.
It is remarkable that study of such a controversial plant led humans to gain a much deeper understanding of their own neuroscience. We found out that they are involved in pain perception, behaviour, thermolegulation, cognition, memory and in movement. Endocannabinoids and cannabinoids, despite using the same receptors, don’t always act in the same way, although the way they alter our body share many similarities.

🧬THC is a lipid (fat) found in Cannabis, and although we’re not absolutely sure why the plant makes it, we believe it is most likely to do with self-defense. Becouse of the way Cannabis plants have been cultivated, the levels of THC have increased significantly over the past four or five decades.
When THC has entered the body and made its way into the bloodstream, it can then find its way up to the brain. It stimulates receptors in the brain that are linked to pleasure. We see a raise in dopamine levels, we also believe that it influences acetylcholine metabolism, alters norepinephrine turnover, and influences biogenic amine and serotonin levels.

🧬CBD is precursor of THC, and the degradation product of THC is cannabinol (CBN), which like THC is psychotropic (but less so).

🧬Eating the fresh plant, interestingly, doesn’t produce much of psychotropic effect and this is because in the living plant most of THC is present as tetrahydrocannabinolic acid- which is psychotropically inactive. To convert it to active THC this compound must be decarhoxylated, and this requires heat and drying. The most similar process and at the same time the easiest way to do it at your own home in to use your herb vaporiser. Flowers after you „vape” them are stil suitable to eat and they still kick. Simply put your vaporiser on the lowest temperature level.

The Spirit behind the Herb🍀

✨Depending on where in the world you are, the image you have of people using Cannabis may vary greatly, and perhaps your age will shape this image too.

✨Those who used the plant in the 60s and 70s may associate it with a time of a self-discovery, and with the Peace movement. Younger members of our communities may associate it with that period of navigation into adulthood and may associate it with friendship, long summers and glimpses into spirituality or deeper sense of self.

✨With Cannabis, there certainly can br echos of the spirituality and sense of ritual, ceremony and community that we associate with other psychotropic plants used tribally.

✨Spirituality and Cannabis have been intereined for centuries. Shiva, the Hindu God is said to have brought Cannabis plants down from the Himalaya Mountains to the valley floor to give to the people who lived there. When this God was celebrated, Cannabis based drinks were drunk in reverence. It was used during the Hindu Holi festival, a playful, colourful festival! 🎉

✨Shamans have been using the plant for thousands of years, as evideced by the grave of a Shaman containing an impressive amount of Cannabis, dating back 2700 years!

✨The Sufis and Muslim sect, unlike other Muslims (who consider Cannabis banned substance), consider the plant a pathway to communication with the God.

✨ The rastafari are well know for their use of the plant! A religion born in the 1930s, the Rastafari movement embraces the use of Cannabis as a means of nurturing their spirituality and relationship with God Jah. They believe that tree of life in the Bible is accually Cannabis🍀

✨Rastas smoke togheter in groups to discusd issues, to meditate and to gain mental clarity.

🧞The Spirit has remained amongst Us🙏🏼

History behind the Herb🍀

🍀Cannabis sativa is a plant that is growing just like other plants, yet is a plant that has been hotly debatated for centuries.
A native to Eastern Asia, historically this genus has been grown for its strong fibers, with example found in China dating back to 4000 BCE! The oldest example of woven fabric is made of h**p fibers. Our ancient ascentors ate the seeds and later they used seed oil for a lamp light.

🍀We see evidence of Cannabis used as a psychotropic from 2000 BCE, with its use written about it Emperor Shen Nung’s pharmacopoeia. In this text the plant is recomended as a remedy for constipation, female issues, malaria, pain and absentmindednes.

🍀In 900 BCE, we see it being used as an incence and medicine by the Assyrians, whilst Indian Vedas speak of it as a divine nectar and its ingredient in the god Indra’s favourite drink.

🍀”Ganja” is accually indian term for a Cannabis preparation. Greeks were also using Cannabis, with Galen writing of an intoxicating h**p cake, and women of Thebes used the plant to quell sorrow.
Avicenna also wrote in the tenth century, with a nod to its psychoactive properties.

🍀Writing from 18th century speak of the psychotropic use of Cannabis in India and Persia, with medicinal uses.

🍀In the 19th century, the plant was studied for its issues such a rabies, tetanus and alcohol withdrawal - research well ahead of its time. Similar use was found in UK around this time, with a tincture of the plant being given to ease morphine withdrawal. Towards the end of the century Cannabis has been studied by French phisicians seeking to clarify its potential use in psychiatric practice.

🍀It is fair to say that during the 19th century there is a plenty of evidence of the medicinal use of Cannabis, particulary for withdrawal symptoms and insomnia. As they moved into the twentieth century, the idea of smoking the plant to bring about more rapid effects become popular.

🍀Until the 1930s, Cannabis sativa jad an entry in the United Stated pharmacopoeia, listed as amongst other things, a sedative. But in 1937, the „Ma*****na Tax Act” was passed, and this prohibited the cultivation, sale and use of the plant. But how did this act come to pass when it appears that within the US it had been a common farm crop for so long? Well, from around 1920s there was a growing fear surrounding the use of the plant as a psychoactive. The public grew scared that the plant’s use would lead to deviancy and posed a threat to wider public’s safety. It’s also fair to say that a look back to the headliners of the era also point firmly to deeply unsettling racist views- with the Cannabis bans being used directed at racials minorities. However, the act did little to quash the recreational use of Cannabis in the US, with the popularity rising through the decades, peaking in the 70s.

🍀By 1980, eleven states had decriminalised „possesion” of Cannabis, but later, the law clamped down again.

🍀Thankfully, after huge struggle our grandfathers and grandmothers had, times have been changed.
With the law now in force, Malta become the first country in Europe to permit restricded use of Cannabis for recreational use. Users can carry up to 7g of the substance on them without a fear of prosecution and grow 4 plants at home. Up to 50g of homegrown Ma*****na can be stored at home.
BLESSED we Are🙏🏼🍀

Coconut Very Berry 🥥🫐🥥🫐

Creation of Millet, coconut milk And flakes with addition of blueberries.
Based on rye and oat flakes, mixed with nutricious dates and 100% peanut butter.
This cake is super light And low sugar, yet so creamy and full of flavour.
Salnity meets delicacy: poetry in your mouth😋😋

But what are the most important health benefits of blueberries?
Allow me to introduce some of them to You:

🫐 Blueberries contain a plant compound called anthocyanin. This gives blueberries both their blue color and many of their health benefits.

🫐 One cup of blueberries provides 24 percent of a person recommended daily allowance of vitamin C.

🫐 Blueberries contain iron, phosphorous, calcium, mangesium, manganese, zinc, and vitamin K. Each of these is a component of bone. Adequate intake of these minerals and vitamins contributes to building and maintaining bone structure and strength.

🫐 Vitamin C, vitamin A, and the various phytonutrients in blueberries function as powerful antioxidants that may help protect cells against damage from disease-linked free radicals.

🫐 Blueberries also contain folate, which plays a role in DNA and repair. This can prevent the formation of cancer cells due to mutations in DNA.

🫐 Blueberries help to prevent constipation and maintain regularity for a healthful digestive tract because of their fiber content

🫐 Foods with the most nutrients per calorie have the highest rankings, and blueberries are placed among the top fruits and vegetables for nutrient density.
