article about ladies and breast exposure to the sun reducing the risk to brear cancer
especially important when they are younger. has a life tome effect
shows how important the sun and being out in it is

Ladies must get their breasts in the sun. Clear as day to avoid breast cancer. https://aacrjournals.org/cebp/article-abstract/34/11/1963/766713/Lifetime-Sunlight-Exposure-and-Risk-of-Breast
Lifetime Sunlight & Breast Cancer Risk
A population-based case-control study reports that greater lifetime sunlight exposure—especially during adolescence/early adulthood—was associated with lower breast cancer risk.
Each additional hour of sunlight exposure during adolescence was associated with 16% lower odds of breast cancer in winter and 11% lower odds in summer. No association was seen for sunlight exposure after age 30. For lifetime sunlight exposure, each additional hour per day was associated with 16% lower odds in winter and 9% lower odds in summer. A dose-response relationship was observed, with greater sunlight exposure linked to progressively lower odds of breast cancer.
Build a lifelong light habit: get natural morning light daily, get some midday light but avoid burning, spend more time outside with skin exposed, and minimize artificial light at night.

I have a good friend who is also a doctor and she told me about this gentleman. I was asking her about questions about cholesterol I use for when I get a new client. They’re on pharmaceuticals to tell me what they are and what they do as she gives me a balanced more natural viewpoint

I do not believe most of us should be on pharmaceuticals and only a very few if any yes they have some benefits, but mostly they just make you worse. I’ve never been on any. This doctor discusses why they’re not helpful generally, they are prime cause of dementia and Alzheimer’s for one thing lessons and love you. Have a happy day.

, is widely used

Roundup, known as glyphosate is used heavily in our farming and agriculture. It is one of the reasons why you need to be gluten-free, as it is used on wheat as part of the ripening process
Here is a article from Mike adams talking about it and how to detoz from it
One of the things he mentions is msm something I highly recommend and take daily. Please feel free to message me with questions

under a silent, insidious chemical assault. The weapon is glyphosate, the active ingredient in Monsanto’s Roundup herbicide, and the most used agricultural chemical in history. [1] It is now so pervasive that this plant-killing agent has infiltrated the entire food chain, from breakfast cereals to drinking water. [1] The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified glyphosate as a probable human carcinogen. [1]

This is no accident of modern agriculture. Investigative research reveals that glyphosate’s origins trace back to N**i chemical weapons research, a plant nerve agent now unleashed upon global populations. [2] Its effects are catastrophic: linked to cancer, devastating mineral depletion, and the systematic destruction of the gut microbiome. [3] The system designed to protect you—the FDA, EPA, and other captured regulators—has failed, prioritizing corporate profits over human health. This report provides a life-saving, four-pillar protocol to detoxify, reclaim your biology, and protect yourself from this pervasive poison.

Pillar 1: Replenish Your Sulfation Pathways – Your Body’s Master Detox System
Your liver’s Phase 2 detoxification system relies heavily on a process called sulfo-conjugation, which requires sulfate. Glyphosate is a master saboteur of this critical pathway. It directly depletes sulfate in the body, crippling your primary defense system against toxins. [4] This sulfate depletion has cascading effects, impairing liver detox, weakening connective tissue, and preventing the proper elimination of chemical invaders.

To reclaim this vital system, you must aggressively replenish sulfur. Your diet is the first line of defense. Consume sulfur-rich foods daily, including cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and cabbage, as well as alliums like onions and garlic. [5] For targeted, therapeutic support, consider a high-quality MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) supplement, which provides a bioavailable source of organic sulfur to help restore your sulfation pathways.

Remember, this restoration is not optional. As researcher Emily Givler notes, glyphosate exposure creates recognizable patterns of gut dysbiosis and metabolic disruption that can be seen on specialized tests. [6] By flooding your system with the sulfur it has been starved of, you begin to reboot your body’s innate, natural ability to neutralize and expel toxins.

Pillar 2: Heal the Gut and Replenish What Glyphosate Destroys
Glyphosate acts as a broad-spectrum antibiotic in the human gut, but it does not kill all bacteria uniformly. It decimates beneficial species, such as lactobacilli and bifidobacteria, while allowing more pathogenic organisms, such as clostridia, to thrive. [3] This imbalance leads to gut dysbiosis, inflammation, and leaky gut syndrome, a condition in which the intestinal barrier becomes permeable. [7] When the gut wall is compromised, toxins, microbes, and undigested food particles flood into the bloodstream, accessing every organ and placing a tremendous strain on your liver and kidneys. [7]

Healing begins with repopulation. Introduce potent, diverse probiotics through traditionally fermented foods like sauerkraut, kimchi, and kefir. A high-quality, multi-strain probiotic supplement can provide foundational support. Just as critical are prebiotic fibers—found in foods like chicory root, jicama, and asparagus—which feed the good bacteria you are trying to cultivate. [8]

Simultaneously, you must cease fueling the fire. Avoid glyphosate’s partners in crime: inflammatory seed oils, processed junk foods, and unnecessary antibiotics that further devastate your microbiome. This pillar is about active repair and creating an internal environment where health can flourish, not merely survive.

Pillar 3: Reclaim Your Minerals and Bind the Toxin Directly
Originally developed as a descaling agent to chelate heavy metals from industrial pipes, glyphosate retains this metal-grabbing property inside your body. It acts as a potent chelator, stealing essential minerals like zinc, magnesium, manganese, and selenium right out of your tissues. [9] This mineral robbery disrupts hundreds of enzymatic processes, leading to fatigue, neurological issues, and a crippled immune system. The first step is replenishment through diet: consume mineral-rich leafy greens, nuts, seeds, and Brazil nuts for selenium.

Strategic, high-quality supplementation may be necessary to correct significant deficiencies caused by long-term exposure. The second, more aggressive step is to use natural binders that can directly neutralize glyphosate and es**rt it out of your body. Activated charcoal is a powerful, porous substance proven to adsorb toxins in the gut. [10] Chlorophyll-rich superfoods like chlorella and spirulina are also excellent natural binders. [11]

A particularly clever strategy involves glycine supplementation. Glyphosate is a synthetic amino acid that mimics the structure of glycine. When it incorporates itself into proteins in place of glycine, it causes dysfunctional, misfolded proteins—a process linked to diseases like Alzheimer’s. [12] By flooding your system with pure glycine, you can help displace glyphosate, preventing this disastrous substitution and aiding its removal.

Pillar 4: Enhance Organ Function and Strategic Elimination
Your liver and kidneys are your primary filtration and elimination organs, and they are under constant siege from glyphosate and other toxins. Supporting their function is non-negotiable. Herbal allies can provide powerful support: dandelion root acts as a gentle liver tonic and diuretic, milk thistle (silymarin) protects and regenerates liver cells, and turmeric (curcumin) reduces systemic inflammation. [8] All of this requires a foundation of abundant, clean water to facilitate the flushing of toxins through your renal system.

Your skin is your largest organ and a major elimination pathway. Strategic sweating is a proven method to excrete stored toxins. [13] Incorporate regular exercise that makes you sweat, and utilize sauna therapy—particularly infrared saunas, which promote a deep, detoxifying sweat. [13]

This pillar synergizes with the others. As you support your organs and open elimination channels, the mobilized toxins from your fat stores, along with the glyphosate displaced by glycine supplementation, need clear pathways to exit the body. A focused approach on liver, kidney, and dermal (skin) elimination ensures that the toxins you are working so hard to liberate do not simply get reabsorbed, causing more damage.

The Critical First Step: Stop the Poison at the Source
The most powerful aspect of any detox protocol is avoidance. You cannot detox successfully if you are continually consuming the poison. Your most urgent action is to eliminate the primary dietary sources of glyphosate: conventionally grown wheat, soy, and corn. These are often genetically modified to withstand heavy spraying and are therefore saturated with the herbicide. [14] Choose certified organic versions of these staples, which are prohibited from using synthetic herbicides like glyphosate.

Go beyond the organic label when possible. Seek out products that are lab tested for glyphosate using mass-spec analysis, such as most products available at HealthRangerStore.com (which also tests for heavy metals, mycotoxins, salmonella, and more). This is crucial because, as independent lab testing has shockingly revealed, even some organic products can become contaminated through drift or polluted irrigation water. [15] Furthermore, you must filter your water. Municipal water treatment does not remove glyphosate. Invest in a high-quality filtration system proven to remove this and other agricultural chemicals; standard carbon filters are often inadequate for the task. [16]

Your Empowerment in a Poisoned World
In the year 2026, achieving zero exposure to glyphosate in a world saturated with it may be impossible, but achieving robust resilience is entirely within your power. You have a clear choice: succumb to the chemical onslaught orchestrated by corrupt institutions and profit-driven corporations, or take empowered, natural action. This four-pillar protocol—replenishing sulfate, healing the gut, reclaiming minerals, and enhancing elimination—combined with aggressive avoidance, provides a comprehensive shield.

This is the essence of decentralized health: rejecting the failed, toxic paradigm of the captured medical and agricultural systems and taking personal responsibility for your well-being. For deeper research and uncensored knowledge on this and countless other health sovereignty topics, use free, pro-human resources like the AI research engine at BrightAnswers.ai (trained on thousands of books and scientific papers covering glyphosate). Your health is your sovereignty. Defend it.

Organ transplants
We are finding out they are not the wonderful medical cure that we thought they were
Many years ago, I worked in hospitals as a patient aide. I remember being taken into a room to see a person who they said they were brain dead. And yes, you could see on the eeg the graph was flat showing no brain activity
no we are learning that does not mean they are dead never to return here is a summary of a longer article explainging it in more detail

Story at a Glance:

•Transplanted organs are typically sourced from “brain dead” donors. However, brain death is a surprisingly ambiguous diagnosis, and since its invention, many have argued patients who are still consciously aware are having their organs transplanted.

•Over the years, compelling evidence has accumulated suggesting this occurs, and has worsened as there has been a greater and greater need for donor organs, leading to a cruel blackmarket overseas where they are directly harvested from living donors (e.g., prisoners). Recently, government investigations showed systemic issues exist within the organ donation process that are causing inappropriate organ harvesting to occur.

•When organs are transplanted, memories, personalities, preferences, and skills (including what happened at the donors moment of death) have been repeatedly observed to transfer from the donor to recipient in a manner that strongly suggests a real transference is occurring—raising significant questions as to where our consciousness or memories comes from and who we actually are, along with the ethics of sourcing organs from non-consenting donors.

•Maintaining the viability of transplanted organs is quite challenging (e.g., making vaccination a precondition for transplants, despite evidence showing the COVID vaccine caused transplants to fail). In many cases, these challenges appear to result from aspects of consciousness being transferred from the donor to recipient.

•This article will review these points along with our preferred approaches to restoring failing organs and releasing retained emotional trauma.

When I first applied for a driver’s license, I was asked if I wanted to designate myself as an organ donor. Given my learned distrust of societal institutions (e.g., medicine) and a few concerning stories I’d come across, I opted to not be an organ donor. However, I also felt quite conflicted about doing so, particularly since I strongly believe in following the golden rule (treat others as you would want to be treated) and knew that if I needed a transplant I would be desperate for the appropriate donor to be willing to give the gift of life to me.

Since that time (when information challenging the mainstream narrative was quite difficult to find), I’ve come across much more information on the topic which paints a rather disturbing but also amazing profoundly paradigm shifting perspective on the topic (e.g., this article will detail the tangible spiritual consequences of receiving an unethically harvested organ).

However, due to my inherent conflict over this topic (e.g., many people need organs so I don’t want to discourage donations—particularly since organ shortages cause even more unethical steps to be taken to procure organs), I focused on other topics and only started this article in July. To my great surprise, a few weeks later, RFK Jr. did something I never anticipated and formally announced that there were widespread failures of the ethical safeguards in our organ donation system, after which, the Overton window was blown open and others (e.g., the head of the Independent Medical Alliance) began discussing the grim reality organs were being taken from still living people.

Colonoscopy
I had my colonoscopy in Jan. 2022 and my gastroparesis issues began shortly thereafter. While I can’t definitively prove that the removal of my polyps caused my issues, after doing some research here is what I found.

While the medical establishment constantly fear-mongers people to get routine colonoscopies for cancer prevention, there are eye-opening things no doctor will tell you about this subject, which could affect your long-term health. Please note: I’m not opposed to colonoscopies if there are concerning digestive symptoms. But I am not a fan of otherwise healthy people doing routine testing for colorectal cancer because doing so could actually increase the odds of getting more polyps or colon cancer. Here’s how and why.....

Johnny’s Substack is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.

Upgrade to paid
----------------

The procedure's logic is to check for precancerous growths (polyps). And if a polyp is found, it’ll be removed during the procedure and analyzed. But as a colonoscopy itself is considered a preventative treatment, the logic is that the removal of a polyp supposedly helps prevent the future development of cancer by eliminating potentially harmful cells before they become malignant.

Sounds great, but here’s what they don’t tell you. Removing a polyp does not necessarily resolve the problem. Polyps form in the colon in damaged, inflamed areas of low circulation and/or heavy metal buildup. When blood flow is reduced, polyps form as a type of swelling seen in typical wounds. This swelling signals angiogenesis to help new blood vessels form to restore oxygen to the region to help with local tissue repair. Just like if you sprained an ankle, for example.

Do you see the catch? Their premise is flawed because polyps are actually tissue repair mechanisms that help compensate for local ischemia. See, when blood flow is insufficient, heavy metals and other toxic materials accumulate in inflamed regions. (Metals accumulate in areas that don’t detox sufficiently) Thus, polyps are the body’s solution to potential cancer, not the cause, because they increase local oxygen and harbor/isolate any accumulated toxicity in their fibrous structure.

Feel duped yet? Don’t worry - it gets worse. When doctors remove polyps, they often do not remove the entire base of the polyp, nor the entirety of its microenvironment, which is where most cancer stem cells and exosomes reside. So it’s common for cancer stem cells to be left behind, which can then proliferate and invade local tissues. Likewise, exosomes can escape into the bloodstream and translocate to other areas, which is typically how metastasis happens.

And since the removal of polyps creates a gaping hole in the gut lining, suddenly there’s a giant, unnatural opening for food/waste, pathogenic bacteria, heavy metals and cancer-causing exosomes to escape into the bloodstream. And remember, this area was already inflamed and unable to repair itself naturally, so it’s likely that repair mechanisms will struggle with repairing this new hole. If you’ve had multiple polyps removed, you’ll now have multiple non-repaired holes in your gut (aka open wounds) along with a mucus lining that is probably riddled with heavy metals, thus increasing damage and permeability even more.

Another important concept: A polyp is a regenerative tissue that replaces damaged or breached colon wall tissue. This new fibrous tissue acts like a temporary “patch” that forms in chronically irritated or unrepaired tissue to stabilize it and prevent necrosis.... This virtual band-aid helps restore colon function, isolate heavy metals, increase blood flow, increase oxygen, and restore gut lining integrity. Still want to rip it out?

It is also well known that colonoscopies and the removal of polyps can cause significant harm to the microbiome, as the procedure can trigger systemic inflammation and reduce beneficial bacterial species. Interestingly, damage to the microbiome directly causes the formation of new polyps. Here’s what ChatGPT says about this:

-------------------

“ Colonoscopies and polyp removal can also contribute to microbiome disruption, as the physical procedure and potential use of antibiotics can alter the gut’s microbial balance. The mechanical stress of the colonoscopy, along with tissue damage from polyp removal, can trigger inflammation and weaken the gut lining. This can impair bile acid metabolism, increase the growth of harmful bacteria, and further disrupt the gut’s environment. The resulting dysbiosis can promote chronic inflammation, cellular mutations, and abnormal tissue growth, all of which increase the risk of polyp formation and make it harder for the colon to heal and restore a healthy microbiome.” I feel this is what happened to me and why I’ve had so much trouble with my guts.

-------------------

So ironically, even taking 1 polyp out could potentially lead to the formation of more polyps and potentially cancer. And again, removal won’t address the underlying inflammatory terrain or the damaged tissue that prompted the polyp formation in the first place.

And this doesn’t even count all the potential unintended side effects or consequences of the procedure...aka perforation risk, excessive bleeding, incorrect diagnosis, over-treatment, doctor errors, expense, missed polyps, impaired gut functions, false sense of security, etc.

A better alternative, in my opinion, is to avoid “preventative” colonoscopies altogether and focus on disciplined, proactive, holistic prevention. Regular vigorous exercise, high-fiber diets, plenty of fibrous vegetables, avoiding toxic foods, avoiding herbicides, and steering clear of radiation exposure (like keeping cell phones away from your midsection and using radiation-protective clothing) are all smarter, safer strategies.

What do you do if you wake up before sunrise and have to work?

People ask me this all the time.

“What if I wake up really early for work?” “What if I have to be on my computer before I’ve seen the sunrise?”

First, let’s drop the perfectionism. Circadian biology isn’t about rigid rules; it’s about signals. Even small, well-timed signals count.

If you wake before sunrise and need to work, here’s how to keep your body aligned with the light that’s coming, not the light you’re forcing it into.

1. Go outside immediately — even if it’s dark

As soon as you wake up, go outside. Yes, even if the sky still looks pitch-black, that deep-blue, pre-dawn light carries information. It tells your nervous system: “It’s early morning, not night, not day.” This helps anchor your internal clock and softens the cortisol spike that can happen when we go straight from bed to screen.

If you can, stand still for a minute. Breathe. Let your eyes adjust.

2. Use warm light indoors + block blue light from screens

Inside, keep lighting incandescent or very warm, lamps only, no overheads.

If you need to be on a screen:

Wear blue-light blockers

Keep them on until around 30 minutes before sunrise

This prevents your brain from thinking it’s midday at 5am, which can scramble hormones, digestion, and energy later in the day.

3. Ground your body (especially if you’re using tech early)

If possible, go barefoot when you step outside, even briefly.

Early-morning tech use creates significant “noise” in the nervous system. Grounding helps discharge excess stimulation and brings the body back into coherence.

Think of it as clearing static before the day really begins.

4. Take calls outside if you can

If you have early calls, try doing them outside while walking.

This keeps your body moving as natural light gradually increases and prevents you from getting stuck in a static, artificial environment while your biology is still waking up.

If not once, then again, step outside multiple times as the light changes.

5. Catch the sunrise - even briefly

Do your best to see the sunrise. Even 2–5 minutes matter. Ideally, closer to 10 minutes if you can.
This article I found on Substack From a thread called the light human
I have known about the dangers of artificial light for several years. I do not have an LED or fluorescent light in my house
Though I learned several new things from this, which I did not know

The world's leading expert on red light is Dr. Jack Kruse. He gave an enlightening talk a number of years ago that is still available, which set the basis for what we know now
This is one of the strongest daily signals you can give your circadian system. If you miss it completely, your body stays slightly unsure what “time” it’s living in.

6. Protect your screen light

Make sure you have Flux or Iris installed on your computer to reduce blue light and dynamically adjust colour temperature.

This is non-negotiable if you work early or late.

The takeaway: You don’t need perfect conditions. You need honest signals.

Go outside early. Use warm light. Block blue light. Keep meeting the natural light as it arrives. Your body will do the rest.

This is wonderful and amazing that this is coming out in the mainstream, facts that have been hidden for years. To be truly healthy in our modern world gluten-free is a necessity, and besides that, they changed wheat with the green revolution, which also has glyphosate in it
Seventy-five years of peer-reviewed research — including double-blind RCTs published in 2025 — link gluten-containing grains to schizophrenia in an identifiable subpopulation: the 25–30% of patients with elevated anti-gliadin antibodies.

Ketogenic and grain-free diets have produced documented remissions of schizophrenia at Harvard, Stanford, and McLean Hospital, with multiple RCTs now underway or completed. No journalist who covered Kennedy’s remarks contacted any of these researchers.

Wheat’s harm extends far beyond gluten. The Dark Side of Wheat identifies six categories of damage — including WGA neurotoxicity, opioid-receptor disruption, and excitotoxicity — across 335 peer-reviewed abstracts and 229 disease associations. Removing grains also eliminates chronic glyphosate exposure from pre-harvest desiccation.

The media called the science “unfounded.” The word they were looking for was “unread.”

The Claim, the Criticism, and the Missing Context
On February 4, 2026, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told a crowd at the Tennessee State Capitol:

“We now know that the things that you eat are driving mental illness in this country. Dr. Chris Palmer at Harvard has cured schizophrenia using keto diets.”

He added:

“There are studies right now that I saw two days ago where people lose their bipolar diagnosis by changing their diet.”¹

This is an article I copied from Scholisitico, a website that offers courses.on alternative health
Never drink store-bought milk; it is very unhealthy. Though in washinton you can get raw milk at the store, and New Seasons stocked a mildly pasteurized Jersey milk at one point
not looked lately

It explains why a2a2 milk is what to drink for better health
And if you cannot tolerate that milk goat milk is the one to try. It is easier to digest, and it is one that can be given to babies generally, with some additives

Millions of people believe they're lactose intolerant.

They experience bloating, cramping, or digestive discomfort after drinking milk—and they assume the problem is the lactose.

But what if it isn't?

What if the real culprit is something most people have never heard of—a protein mutation that entered the milk supply thousands of years ago?

The Original Milk
Here's something most people don't know: cows weren't always like this.

More than 10,000 years ago—before cattle were domesticated—all cows produced milk with a protein called A2 beta-casein.

This is the same type of beta-casein found in human breast milk. And in goat milk. And sheep milk.

Every mammal on Earth produces milk with this protein structure.

Except for modern dairy cows.

Somewhere between 5,000 and 10,000 years ago, as cattle were being bred in Northern Europe, a genetic mutation occurred.

A single amino acid changed at position 67 of the beta-casein protein—proline was replaced with histidine.

That mutation created what we now call A1 beta-casein.

It wasn't created on purpose. Farmers selecting for higher milk yields unknowingly favored bulls that carried the mutation.

Over generations, as these high-producing bloodlines were used to improve herds across Europe and eventually the world, the A1 variant spread.

Today, most commercial milk in the Western world comes from cows that carry this mutation.

The Difference Nobody Talks About
On paper, one amino acid doesn't sound like much.

But the way these two proteins behave during digestion is dramatically different.

When you digest A1 beta-casein, your digestive enzymes cleave a seven-amino-acid peptide chain called beta-casomorphin-7—or BCM-7 for short.

BCM-7 is an opioid peptide. It interacts with opioid receptors in your gut, which can slow intestinal transit, increase mucus production, and trigger inflammatory responses in some people.

When you digest A2 beta-casein, this peptide is not released.

The difference lies in the protein's shape at that single mutation point. Proline resists enzymatic cleavage. Histidine does not.

Same milk. Same lactose content. Completely different digestive experiences for certain people.

Why This Matters
Studies published in peer-reviewed journals have found that people who report digestive discomfort after drinking regular milk often experience fewer symptoms—less bloating, less abdominal pain, less urgency—when they switch to milk containing only A2 beta-casein.

In one study of Chinese children with milk intolerance, switching to A2-only milk led to measurable reductions in inflammatory markers and improved cognitive performance compared to regular milk.

Another study of Korean adults found lower f***l calprotectin—a marker of intestinal inflammation—after consuming A2 milk compared with conventional milk.

This doesn't mean A1 milk is poison. Many people tolerate it without issue.

But it suggests that some percentage of people who have given up dairy—convinced they're lactose intolerant—may actually be reacting to the A1 protein, not to the sugar.

If that's you, you may not need to avoid milk at all. You may just need to find the right kind.

What To Look For
A2 milk is now available in most grocery stores, typically labeled as "A2" or "A2/A2." It comes from cows that have been genetically tested to confirm they carry only the A2 variant.

Milk from Jersey and Guernsey cows tends to be higher in A2 beta-casein than milk from Holsteins—though testing is the only way to be certain.

Goat milk, sheep milk, and buffalo milk are naturally A2, which may explain why some people who can't tolerate cow's milk do fine with these alternatives.
