Probiotic Delivers Anticancer Drug To Gut

 https://www.miragenews.com/probiotic-delivers-anticancer-drug-to-gut-1361941/

This looks promising, but the body needs to be alkaline to stop disease too, when the body builds up acid it becomes sick. Life is pretty hectic for the average person as it is, and trying to afford a healthy nutritious diet is getting more difficult for people especially if they have a family to feed. Probiotics are expensive for many families too, and you need top quality probiotics that are kept refrigerated. Anything else is not worth buying, so do your research before buying anything. Natural yoghurt is a good start as are fermented foods, though not everyone can eat these for health reasons such as allergies to these things or an intolerance. 

This is where those that can afford to, need to use a naturopath as well as their family doctor. Learning what is nutritional and what is immune system enhancing. With the changes in our world these days we owe it to ourselves to learn nutrition and preventative natural medicine to work together for optimal health. 

Police track down unlikely shoe thief from Japanese kindergarten

LOL, I just had to share this one. What a cute little stinker, lol.  I love the expression used at the end of the article. My late cat Tolstoy had a thing for shoes, he would steal them and sniff them, sometimes we found them under the bed. He was a funny little guy.

'Is this what we've come to?': Perth father beaten in brutal attack on night out

 https://www.9news.com.au/national/perth-father-beaten-in-brutal-attack-on-night-out/766ad2f0-a489-4b07-8e59-2145cf450335?ocid=edm-nine.com.au-ninedaily--241111&mktg_scr=edm-ninedaily

Lift your bloody game Western Australia! Is this what life has become in Australia? Where police are ineffective and the government constantly pays lip service to the public. Our magistrates and judges are a national disgrace, as they never punish criminals properly and victims are left seriously injured or dead. 

Yet the public also seem so indifferent and are not demanding accountability. The public must keep up the momentum on the legal system and the government, to man up and stop this animalistic behaviour now. The laws are there but magistrates rarely use the full force of their powers, and then on the other hand we have weak minded goodie goodie leftist lawyers, demanding the criminal is a victim and the sentence if handed down is manifestly unfair. They give no thought to the victims, the families bereaved or the  insult these goodie goodies deal to our moral decency.  

Where are the  mass public protests about street crime, and violence. You can protest the popular domestic violence, or a political agenda but never protest our criminal violence. Domestic violence is protested only because it is being pushed by the media and for no other reason. Yes, domestic violence is horrific and wrong, of course it is, but so are the violent crimes that are committed every single day. You cannot cherry pick what to protest about, and call yourself moral, ethical or just; unless you tackle all violent crime. It's like the public are so dumbed down; that they have to be told by the media when to be angry, how to think and how to react. The media are hardly fine examples of high moral values themselves. They manipulate and browbeat the masses and constantly insult our intelligence. 

 The Australian public have become weak and ineffective individuals who are literally lead by the nose by political agendas and not moral behaviour. We do not want to live in a world with rampant violence going unchecked like in Queensland, Victoria and Western Australia. 

This does not sell us as a good place to live, to people overseas. We are seen as an unruly mob that lack civilization  when violence like this is now an every day occurrence. The buck stops with the public getting off their collective backsides and demanding real justice, without backsliding into a pathetic weak nation of  wimps. Show some bloody respect for the victims of violent crime by taking the appropriate action.

Corpse plant in bloom

Yeah, Nah! I dry heave at the drop of a hat, lol. A stinky plant doesn’t do anything for me 🤣🤣 Just as well that it flowers only once in ten years. 🤢🤢 Australia does have magnificent plants, trees and flowers to enjoy and seeing them in a botanical garden is ideal for viewing a wide variety without long travels to see species in their bush environment. 

Volunteer Archaeologists Find Lost Medieval Castle in Scottish Forest

 https://www.ancient-origins.net/news-history-archaeology/eddlewood-castle-0021642

What a great find, this is near where I come from and part of my local history. 

The Castle at the top of the news article Craignethan castle is also known as Tilletudlem castle from the Sir Walter Scott novel Old Mortality. I remember visiting this castle as a child and my parents telling me about this. I have the novel among my collection of Sir Walter Scott’s books. 

The Lanarkshire region is steeped in history and a must see for history lovers, you can feel the energy of the past as you explore the famous castles and battle grounds. We Scott’s are very much living history as the stories are often passed down the generations. If you love Scottish history, I highly recommend reading books by Neil Oliver, Magnus Magnusson  in particular Scotland; the story of a nation, and other authors on Scottish history and castles. As a side note Sir Walter Scott was not historically accurate in his novels but they are excellent reading all the same. 

Woolworths employee on $26 an hour confronts board at AGM over millions paid to executives

What's wrong with this picture? There is no damn way the CEO of any company is worth what they are paid. How is this acceptable for anyone to be paid such extremes of wages and the ordinary workers are working themselves into the grave to survive.

Warning over 'harmful' garden trend as Aussies partake in Halloween celebrations

 https://au.news.yahoo.com/warning-over-harmful-garden-trend-as-aussies-partake-in-halloween-celebrations-001744501.html

Unfortunately people don’t stop to think about the dangers of using fake spiderwebs or other decorative items that are harmful or potentially deadly to wildlife. We need an education campaign as well as laws that protect wildlife from being killed or injured by banning dangerous items outdoors in peoples gardens. 

Orange led lights would be a better choice on shrubs and trees if you want to decorate them. It’s better to hang the fake spiderwebs up at windows inside the house and highlight them with a string of lights. Get creative with window displays instead of hanging dangerous fake spiderwebs in your garden. That way people can look at your window displays at night time without worrying about harm to wildlife. It’s a win-win for wildlife and people celebrating Halloween 🎃 

Scan exposes how bad sleep affects our brain, study finds

 https://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/health/health-problems/scan-exposes-how-bad-sleep-affects-our-brain-study-finds/news-story/bafdb55418ab3474b7f414bc649fc5ed

I have never had a full nights sleep in almost 36 years. My husband having health issues most of his life means we are both never getting a full nights sleep uninterrupted. I have chronic sleep apnea too and as we get older there is insomnia sometimes. I have always been fully aware of the importance of a full nights sleep, because my father always instilled this in me. I always went to bed early but my parents would be awake until 11.00 pm every night watching TV, and up at 5.30 am to get ready for work because the traffic in Sydney is terrible. 

Going to bed between 9.30 pm and 10.00 pm is probably the ideal time and reading a book to relax before going to sleep. Not heavy reading, it should be something that doesn’t overwhelm you or require heavy concentration. When you feel sleepy it’s time to put the light out. Do not have blue light in the room either because it affects your sleep as do lights in cold white spectrum. 

Brain doctor reveals 1 thing you need to avoid if you’re depressed

 https://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/health/health-problems/brain-doctor-reveals-1-thing-you-need-to-avoid-if-youre-depressed/news-story/f575d0b513c8a681a2fcfeafd68e9bf9

It’s about time this issue was openly discussed, what you eat affects your health, physically and mentally. Modern food is garbage and the high quantity of take-away food in society is unacceptable. Without proper nutrition of course you will become depressed and obese with various health issues. Not to mention dental issues. 

Most of what is on supermarket shelves is garbage and unfortunately with the cost it living so high most people are struggling to keep a roof over their heads, feed their families and hoping they will have a job next week. Add the expense of seeing a doctor, or dentist on top of that,  and there is no way the average person can afford to eat healthy food every day and keep their optimal health. Don’t forget we also need sunlight for vitamin D to prevent disease and depression. 

 Natural unprocessed foods are expensive right now depending on your income level, as are good quality refrigerated probiotics needed to restore gut health. For a start if you have to take antibiotics, you must replenish the good gut bacteria at the same time as you take your antibiotics. But it should be a three month course of taking probiotics to restore your gut bacteria. Now just picture a family needing medicine, the cost on top of normal weekly household bills pushes the bank account balance down in current times. So the nutrition needed may be impossible for many families right now, and that leads to health problems. 

Children are especially vulnerable if there is insufficient nutrition needed for healthy body and brain development. The government needs to take action to ensure that people are able to have access to healthy nutritional food at a reasonable price. Without good quality food we will have children growing up with vitamin and mineral deficiencies which will affect their ability to develop physically and mentally, and to prevent depression and other mental health disorders. That in turn affects their employment choices and wage potential in adulthood. Better education on nutrition should be provided at every level of schooling, explaining what happens to their bodies when they don’t have the right nutrition. 

Researchers reveal sad reason rare Aussie bird is singing a new song

 https://au.news.yahoo.com/researchers-reveal-sad-reason-rare-aussie-bird-is-singing-a-new-song-004505243.html

It’s so sad to see the decline in any wildlife, and Australia is very unique in our wildlife, hence the strict biosecurity rules we have. 

Exactly how often you should be washing your dog, according to an expert

 https://honey.nine.com.au/pets/how-often-you-should-wash-your-dog-vet-advice/bc2bf29f-5394-4d69-a14b-4b7f21aa2b66

This is an interesting article and quite important as to how often we should wash our doggie family members. My first Jack Russell loved the bath, he was in like Flynn as soon as I ran the bath for my children. Sparky thought that every time he heard the bath being run it was for him to play in. We did have a clam shell pool for him to use in summer. His doggie brother Gromit,  didn’t like water but was bathed at reasonable times and having long shaggy fur it required a trim regularly. Miss Ruby is not a fan of a bath either but I still manage to get her washed and then stand back as she does the Zoomies 🤣🤣🤣

Don’t forget to sing the rubber ducky song as you shampoo your fur babies 

RIP George Negus

Another Australian icon has left us at age 82. The month of October always seems like a month where there are many people passing to spirit, especially famous people. It’s nice that his family were there for his passing and he was said to be comfortable at the end. What a blessing to pass peacefully in old age. 

It has been said that those born in the colder months often die in the colder months. My father was born in October in the northern hemisphere and died in December last year. 

Curious koala survives close call at Sydney train station

 https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2024/oct/08/casula-train-koala-sydney-police-escort

Never mind the shaggy dog stories, we have Koala stories in Australia 🤣❤️❤️🐨🐨

I used to live near Casual which is part of the city of Liverpool in south western Sydney. However I have never seen a single koala in the area back in the day. Canberra though we have native wildlife around us and we love them very much. 

It's the international benchmark that no Australian city meets. But should we be aspiring to it?

Do you understand what this agenda means? Shove it where the sun doesn’t shine. Your life is already controlled from the cradle to the grave as it is. If you can’t see what is wrong with this picture then you shouldn’t have the remote for the TV. 

Nobody has the right to dictate to you where you live or where you can travel to especially in your own country, it is a basic human right. These individuals pushing this agenda do whatever they please but want to restrict your freedom of movement, while they fly around in their personal jets. But hey, it’s up to you what you choose, and if you want to be kept under control by the rich and powerful. It’s your  call humanity, you are a controlled puppet if you think this is normal. This is communism and if you can’t recognise that then you have a problem. Those that have lived under communism know better than dumb western people that fall in to line with this concept and even push this agenda. I have known many people who lived under communism and their suffering. Don’t be fooled, the mainstream media is pushing this agenda for the elites, and only with your compliance can this succeed.The mainstream media doesn’t care about you, no, they are paid to push this agenda. Selling us out for measly slivers of silver. However, these so called journalists have a use by date, but never seem to notice this fact. They are stuck in no man’s land between us and the elite; who make them jump through hoops but will throw them under the bus when past their use by date. 

Ordinary people though will ostracise them as they pitifully try to curry favour from the ordinary people. Think of these individuals in the same way as the collaborators during WW2, who sacrificed ordinary people to save their own lives. This is the mindset of the gutless individuals that also collaborated with the communist governments that saw millions of ordinary people killed in various communist countries around the world. Having met the survivors of such atrocities from children to adults, one does not forget the atrocities committed. 

I won’t be around to see the misery this causes, but young people will, as will their children. If you are intelligent, you need to look into the communist countries of this world over the past hundred years to see what suffering was forced on the citizens of communist nations. Women especially were under the hard yolk of communism, controlling their reproductive rights and forced abortions. Millions of people were butchered under communism control, yet the communist leaders lived in absolute luxury. You can thank the American government for these atrocities, as they had an active role in creating this evil. 

If you really want to know what this means then take a good hard look at China with its tired cities and your socioeconomic status dictates where you are permitted to live. Oh, by the way, China has a lot of clout at the UN, which is the best organisation that money can buy.

Your call humanity, but you have no damn right to put your children through this evil. 

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese calls on states to put forward age limit of social media ban

 https://www.news.com.au/technology/online/social/prime-minister-anthony-albanese-calls-on-states-to-put-forward-age-limit-of-social-media-ban/news-story/3d0629ad0573545f2d0d28db1c221981

It will be interesting to see how this pans out, there are many ways to get around the idea. I don’t think this will be successful really because there are too many ways around this ban. It’s a knee jerk reaction that parents need to be parenting better and know that they are responsible for their children’s safety and well being. Schools also have a responsibility as bullying goes on within the schools social media too. 

If ya can’t be bothered parenting don’t have kids, simples! The self harm and suicidal behaviour of any child is unacceptable. Come on adult, it’s time to adult like big boys and girls.

RIP Ken Page

 I was only just watching my Cats DVD  with Ken Page on Sunday, because I kept hearing a song from the musical in my head. I have loved the show since I was 22 years old. Got the DVD, had the music on cassette back in the day, but made damn sure to get the CD as soon as the tape broke.

So sad to hear that Ken Page has passed away and so young too. May you rest in peace Ken knowing that the world loves you. A very distinguished gentleman.
