Micronutrients for wound healing and healthy skin

wound healing
Healthy skin is the body's first barrier in the protection against wounds, and a crucial component of wound repair. The largest organ in the body, the skin is a mirror of the health of the body's internal organs. In addition to protecting the inner tissue, skin also helps regulate body temperature and eliminate metabolic waste products. It is estimated that around 6.5 million people in the United States struggle with slow wound healing due to conditions such as diabetes or obesity, or long-term disability such as that resulting from stroke, spinal cord injury, or multiple sclerosis.

Collagen, a fibrous protein, is the primary building block for skin. A reduction in collagen formation is one of the major causes of delayed wound healing. Impaired collagen formation can lead to the overgrowth of scar tissue, known as keloid formation. Some of the risk factors leading to suboptimal skin regeneration can be exacerbated by environmental pollution, ultraviolet radiation, or an unhealthy lifestyle. Additionally, a dietary deficiency of micronutrients such as vitamin C, proline, lysine, vitamin E, selenium, zinc and others can accelerate the process of skin aging and thinning, and delay wound healing.

Science says 'high-fat diets' hurt the helpful bugs within us, logic says otherwise

Eating a high-fat diet is bad for the bugs that live within each of us and help our health, scientists say.

And separate research has just revealed that these bacterial communities in our gut - called the microbiome - have been evolving to adapt to Kiwis' love of fruit and vegetables.

The human microbiome has become a frontier in science; researchers now know that it contributes to everything from immunity and obesity to mental health.

Comment: This is a typical scientism twist - grab some headlines by telling everyone a "high fat diet" is bad for you, but instead of studying a high fat diet, study a processed junk food diet. This study tells us nothing about a properly formulate low carbohydrate, high animal fat diet that is showing so many benefits for multiple conditions. The message is clear - eat the way the authorities tell you to eat, don't listen to renegades who are healing themselves through logical dietary interventions because 'science' shows you its bad. That uncritical 'science journalists' aren't able to decipher these types of 'studies' is a detriment to journalism and the people who rely on it for insights into how they can better their lives. Its propaganda, pure and simple.

Via Children's Health Defense , headed by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., who is perhaps the only prominent Democrat in America that's actually fighting to protect children from toxic vaccines, 5G electromagnetic radiation and dangerous fluoride chemicals in the water supply:
(Testimony from Dr. Brian S. Hooker)

There is a problem with measles in Washington State, but it's not low vaccination rates, it's actually high vaccination rates with a vaccine product unable to provide lifetime immunity or vigorous passive maternal protection to infants during the first year of life.

When the measles vaccine was first introduced, most people over the age of 15 who had wild measles had lifetime immunity. In developed nations, like other communicable infections, measles was no longer dangerous except in rare circumstances because of inadequate nutrition, poor sanitation, and / or lack of healthcare. Because having the measles was a routine part of childhood, teens, adults, parents, and grandparents were immune. And because of maternal passive immunity, infants were protected. The death rate due to measles in Washington State in the four years prior to the introduction of the measles vaccine was 1.4 in 10,000 cases and approximately 2 in 1,000,000 in the general population.

Australian scientists have universal flu vaccine in their sights following breakthrough

flu vaccine
Australian researchers are hailing a major breakthrough in the development of a universal flu vaccine that protects against all strains of the virus.

Scientists at the Doherty Institute and Monash University say they have discovered immune cells that could fight off all forms of the flu virus, which could see an end to annual flu jabs.

Depending on a patient's immune system, a cover-all flu shot would only be needed every 10 years, or potentially just once in a lifetime - and could help prevent thousands of deaths worldwide every year.

"We have identified the parts of the virus that are shared across all flu strains, and sub-strains capable of infecting humans, and then investigated if we could find robust responses to those viral parts in healthy humans, and influenza-infected adults and children," University of Melbourne PhD student, Marios Koutsakos, said.

Bill Gates donates $15 million to campaign pushing GMOs on small farmers around the world

The Gates Foundation is funding a campaign to "end world hunger" by promoting GMO technology. The organization has hired 400 "science ambassadors" to influence agricultural policy in 35 countries.

In the last four years, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has donated a total of $15 million to two global campaigns aimed at "ending world hunger" by expanding the use of GMO technology.

The first, called the "Alliance for Science," was created in 2014 with the intention of "depolarizing" the GMO debate.

The second, called "Ceres2030," was created in 2018 to help the United Nations achieve its goal of "zero hunger by 2030."

Comment: While he puts on the airs of a philanthropist, Bill Gates is essentially supporting everything that hints at total population control. Vaccines, GMOs, massive defense spending, as well as shades of eugenics. The guy is essentially a maniacal arch-villain from a Bond movie only without the sharks with laser-beams (presumably).

5G technology is the "stupidest idea in the history of the world" says Washington State science prof

We are in the midst of a 5G wireless technology rollout, and politicians have yet to address safety concerns. I recently used Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as an example, but it's happening worldwide. It's one of many examples that illustrates how large corporations completely control politics. I also recently wrote about Robert F. Kennedy explaining how this came to be, and how they've been able to completely compromise government, big media, and our federal regulatory agencies that are supposed to be protecting and informing us.

In the video, he uses Big Pharma as an example, as they provide the most money to congress; even more so than big oil and gas. In that article I also outline multiple examples of fraud so readers can get a clearer picture of what's going on and see some actual evidence of it.

It's clear that we are not being protected, and politicians are simply abiding to the the will of their masters, the big corporations, who in turn act as slaves to their 'financial overlords,' the big banks. We continue to see products and services being approved and implemented without ever going through any safety testing. This is a big problem, and one of the main reasons why we could be seeing a drastic rise in multiple diseases and ailments, especially when it comes to neuropsychiatric disorders. A study titled "Microwave frequency electromagnetic fields (EMFs) produce widespread neuropsychiatric effects including depression" published in the Journal of Chemical Neuroanatomy outlines this quite clearly, and it's only one of thousands of peer-reviewed studies raising multiple concerns in regards to this type of technology.

Comment: The 5G rollout is an unstoppable train at this point, yet the reported health effects keep piling up. This is disturbing, to say the least, as there is little if any possibility of escaping this radiation once it blankets the planet via satellite.

SOTT Focus: Objective:Health - The Skinny on Skin Health

skin close-up
How much do you really know about your skin? It may surprise you!

Skin is our interface with the outside world - it's the place where we're in constant physical contact with the environment that surrounds us. But we tend to take the health of the skin for granted. Skin problems are often regarded as cosmetic - 'surface level problems' - and we often think creams, lotions and topical medications are the best way of dealing with them.

However, the skin can be, and usually is, a reflection of what's going on inside the body. Problems with the liver and detoxification, an imbalance in the microbiome or any number of other imbalances can all be reflected in the state of the skin. This is why dealing with skin issues often requires going beyond 'Skin Deep'.

Join us for this episode of Objective:Health as we give the straight skinny on skin health - what your skin could be telling you, how to deal with skin issues and look your glowing best!

Also stay tuned for Pet Health with Zoya. This week she shares with us how to deal with a pet that excessively licks its paws.

If only 1% of all vaccine injuries are reported, the $4 billion paid out is just the tip of the iceberg

In most public health communications about vaccination, officials gloss over vaccine risks, dismissing any possible "side effects" as mild. However, vaccination programs have always resulted in more serious vaccine injuries for some. In the 1970s and early 1980s, for example, the diphtheria-pertussis-tetanus (DPT) vaccine and its whole-cell pertussis component had chalked up so much vaccine damage that a television documentary likened receiving a DPT shot to playing "vaccine roulette."

After the DPT debacle began attracting widespread attention, vaccine manufacturers started pressuring Congress for protection from vaccine injury lawsuits. Congress obliged. In 1986, President Reagan signed into existence a radical piece of legislation - the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act (NCVIA) - which launched what the Act described as an "alternative remedy to judicial action for specified vaccine-related injuries." A key component of the legislation involved creating the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (NVICP), which was given responsibility for deciding (through the workings of a special "vaccine court") whether specific injuries and individuals would be eligible for financial compensation.

Comment: The existence of the "vaccine court" is one of the biggest miscarriages of justice against the American people in the entire country's history. That someone injured by a vaccine has no recourse to sue its manufacturer means there is zero incentive for the manufacturers to ensure their vaccine's safety. Why anyone with this knowledge would willingly expose themselves to such an intervention, and get outrageously mad that anyone else would refuse?

SOTT Focus: The Long, Hard Road Back to Sanity: Escaping the Vegan Cult and the "Why I'm No Longer Vegan" Phenomenon

i'm not vegan anymore
A curious thing is happening of late across the interwebs, a social phenomenon as prolific as the cinnamon challenge - some people seem to be coming to their senses. Specifically I mean some vegans, and by coming to their senses, I mean they're leaving veganism. More and more video confessionals from both prominent and less-prominent vegan pundits are surfacing within the last year with the title, or some variation of, "Why I'm No Longer Vegan". It appears to be a growing trend as hundreds, possibly thousands of vegans, citing unresolvable health issues, return to eating animal products.

For the most part, the decisions being made to return to animal foods don't seem like easy ones. The videos are usually long, very humble and often heartbreaking, as these individuals confess their miracle diets don't seem to be providing the glowing health and abundance they're promised to. But it's not just that they're changing their diets. These videos have an apologetic air, confessing to the flock that they're no longer a believer, no longer drinking the Koolaid, leaving the compound to go back to the sadistic animal killing masses. Alas, the first step towards truth, rather than a blissful and cathartic moment, is often a difficult one, as reality hits you like a ton of bricks and the old coping mechanisms, like avoidance and denial, no longer provide the solace they once did.

The complete guide to sugar

forms of sugar
Sugar has never been considered a healthy food, but it has still become a major part of our diet. Whether sugar is simply a source of "empty calories" or something more sinister has been an ongoing debate among nutrition experts. Read on to learn all about sugar, the many ways it impacts health, and practical takeaways for decreasing your intake.

What is sugar?

When you hear the term "sugar," you probably think of white table sugar, or sucrose. In reality, there are actually a number of different types of sugar.

Chemically, sugars are either single sugar molecules (monosaccharides) or, more commonly, two sugar molecules linked together (disaccharides). These sugars occur naturally in many foods, and some types are also added to processed foods.

Comment: The case against sugar keeps mounting. Everyone would do well to eliminate it, as much as is possible from their diets, especially for children.
