New Zealand Food Safety has proposed raising glyphosate residue limits in wheat, oats and barley from 0.1 to 10 mg/kg, and to 6 mg/kg in peas. Glyphosate is a w**d killer which has already been banneded in many countries including France, Germany, Belguim, Vietnam and more.

The World Health Organization in 2015 classified glyphosate as a probable carcinogen. Studies link it to cancer, neurological effects, infertility, hormone disruption and gut damage.

Many more studies are needed. Raising glyphosate limits would be irresponsible, unsafe, and would put the health of Kiwis and our soil behind industry profit.

If you agree, please sign the petition today.

Petitions are addressed to the House of Representatives and ask that the House do something about a policy or law, or put right a local or private concern.

Henry has been an absolute legend in the natural health world so I’m really sad to hear of his passing. I referenced him over and over in assignments while studying and he was always fascinating to hear speak at conferences. He was so incredibly smart and such a pioneer.

RIP Henry Osiecki 🙏

Salads with X-factor 💫

Pickled red onions are so easy to make and add such a fresh flavour. The sulfur in onions is beneficial for liver health and reducing inflammation in the body.

Goats feta. Salty goodness and easier to digest than cows dairy.

Kelp flakes. Awesome source iodine. And yes, the kids have this with the chilli added.

Pumpkin seed oil - a very special gift from our friends who live in Austria ❤️

Researchers have found that a tiny dose (1 mg) of Vi**ra makes flowers stay upright and perky for a week longer due to the nitric oxide slowing the breakdown of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), which helps maintain firmness and longevity 😂

After a wholesome long weekend with plenty of fun, friends and food, I’m looking forward to getting back into the kids having full school days and work being back on track. I’m going to be kind to my temple this week and lighten things up with some .plantbasedhealth goodies so will post a few good finds 🌱

It’s reminders like these that truly show the impact we have on each other 🥰

As we step into 2025, my wish for you is a year filled with health, happiness, and continued progress toward your wellness goals. May you find peace, balance, and the strength to achieve everything you set out to do 💪🏽 🧘 🧡

This was aired on TVNZ last night and can be viewed on demand, via the .official app. I’m definitely keen to watch it, as soon as the Christmas shopping, cleaning, prep etc etc is out of the way 🤪

Early morning foraging efforts. These are elder flowers and I’m making a syrup. There are loads of recipes online to make the syrup.

When wild crafting, it’s important to pick the right plant if ingesting it. Google has a cool little tool that my 8 year old showed me. It’s not 💯 but gives you confidence if you’re pretty sure you have the right plant.

Elderflowers are great for the respiratory tract, contain vitamin c and antioxidants. The syrup is refreshing in a sparkling mineral water on a hot summer’s day ✨
