FUN FACTS

Plants and trees take in CO2 from the atmosphere to help growth. As CO2 levels increase from the burning of fossil fuels, volcano eruptions, ocean water temperature changes, and melting permafrost, plants and trees have been busy growing faster and larger. In fact this fun fact has lead to the re-greening of many non plant areas of the planet. NASA over the last decade has been measuring this effect from satellites in space taking pictures. article

So far, this re-greening has impacted an area twice the size of the continental United States with new plant and tree coverage. This will significantly slow down any climate changes as this new green area growth will absorb quite a lot of future CO2 emissions. This gives Nations more time to make and implement non CO2 energy changes. article

The Sun is due to flip poles within a year. Have to wait and see what the effects will be from the increased release of electromagnetic energy coupled with this event. Were the Northern Lights showing up in lower altitudes recently a beginning? article

From the Wellness Letter, Vitamins Fail

DateWednesday, October 25, 2023 at 10:58AM

Multivitamins Fail to Deliver-Again. From the Wellness Letter 10-2023 out of the University of Berkeley.

Another study of studies fails to find benefits for multivitamins on cancer or heart disease prevention.

ANALYSIS: The real story here is not just the failed results. The real take away is that it is finally time to accept the premise that the multivitamin formulas tested failed to deliver positive results. It is not the vitamins that failed. The truth is that multi-vitamin formulas failed and must have something wrong or missing that needs correcting.

It is past time to admit this is the real reality.  Current multivitamin formulas and vitamin forms tested are incomplete and do not provide the nutrient forms that the new scientific research reveals are the ones with value for the diseases under study.  

  • The multivitamins used contained synthetic all-trans beta carotene instead of the natural forms found in algae with related family synergistic functions. pages
  • Vitamin E was also missing the full 8 factors found in foods, beta-, delta-, gamma-, as well as alpha tocopherol, plus the same four for tocotrienols. Alpha tocopherol was found to not be low in heart patients while other of the 8 vitamin E family members were deficient. Studies have now verified this fact but this infomration has yet to change mainstream nutrition and the majority of multivitamins.(98%). pages

Here is copy from the Wellness Letter article that contains a concept not widely promoted to the vitamin consuming Public:  "Of note, the recommendations apply only to healthy community-dwelling adults and not children, pregnant women, or people with chronic illnesses or nutrient deficiencies, who may benefit from certain supplements."

Inconvenient fact: The percentage of People with a nutrient deficiency varies from 0.3% up to 98% for different nutrients. Less than 10% consume 100% of all required nutrient recommendations. Potassium is often 100% deficient. That so few people were able to reach the potassium requirement prompted the US Government recently to lower the RDA by over 30%. ref  article article article
