If I asked: “What Did You Learn In 2020?” what might be your reply?

A headlong dive in the standard of education has given rise to a form of educative myopia where, despite the speed of information and instant global interconnection of devices, we know very little about what’s really going on in the world.

In short, education has become a casualty.

Scientists concur that we are born creative geniuses and that this natural ability is stifled from the time we are born. 

They gave a test to 1,600 children between the ages of 4 and 5 and the results shocked them.

The test looked at the children’s ability to come up with new, different and innovative ideas to problems. 

What percentage of those children do you think fell in the genius category of imagination?

A staggering 98 percent!

Clearly I’m not referring to people who make it onto the hardest pub quiz of all, University Challenge.

Nor am I writing about knowing who the winner of the most recent X Factor or Big Brother is, but of information that might make a difference to their lives if they became aware of it.

Let’s take a realistic example. If you’re about to apply for a mortgage, do you know what factors influence the lending rate over the next 25 years, or if rates are likely to rise even before you commit to borrowing?

WOuldn’t that be something that merits some basic examination?

When Simon Black (Sovereign Man) hears people moaning about lost opportunities, blaming others for their lack of success, he asks them:

• what was the last book they read and when
• when they last visited a library, physical or online
• how many free online courses they’ve participated in
• have they considered any of the Universities in Europe that offer English-language courses at prices well below their US or UK equivalent.

If you haven’t already watched some of Jay Leno’s Jaywalking series exposing how little adults or college students have learned about the general facts of life, go to YouTube, have some fun…..and see if you are able to answer his questions.

For Example:

Q: What once divided East Berlin and West Berlin? One answer: The Great Wall of China. Another answer:”The Sea”

OK the series shows only the interviews where people fail to get the right answer but there’s an embarrassing riches of them.

The UK also has its fair share of people with a general knowledge deficit although I didn’t know the answer about how many seconds there are in…..(I won’t spoil it for you).

Should I blame them? Of course not. Children are learning machines but if the wrong information is put in front of them, they learn the wrong things.

If the Spice Girls had sung their hit songs in Latin or French, Britain would either have many more young linguists…..or no-one would have heard of the Spice Girls.

The contribution below is fascinating, and you’ll be wiser for reading it. It’s a year old, but for those of you who are fascinated by new learnings, here’s journalist Tom Whitwell’s 52 Things I Learned In 2019.  

I use information like this as a way to generate creative ideas that’ll one day come in useful.

Reading Item 8 I’m reminded of a friend who, on reaching home after a lively wine tasting event went online and……well he doesn’t remember much but a week later, and to his surprise, a new set of golf clubs arrived by courier from the USA.  His credit card statement confirmed the transaction. Oops!

I love the last item on the list, no 52, if only to get better answers out of people I’m talking to. The thread behind Jacqueline’s contribution is also enlightening…..especially if you’re a teacher.

Alois Alzheimer was a German psychiatrist and neuropathologist. The results of his work led to him becoming a household name, but not one that you’d want to use too often.

“Alzheimer’s Disease” is an advanced form of cognitive decline or dementia where a person has trouble remembering, learning new things, concentrating, or making decisions that affect their everyday life.

It used to affect men and women in their later years; now it’s affecting people in their 40’s.

A uncle and an aunt of mine in Scotland succumbed to Alzheimer’s Disease over 40 years ago . I witnessed this first hand more recently as a relative could never correctly answer questions such as what month it was, what season it was or what county she lived in.  She would also ask the same two or three questions repeatedly, never taking in the answers.

What Causes Dementia?

There have been many suppositions but a recent study carried out by the NYU College of Dentistry and NYU Langone Medical Centre determined that Porphyromonas Gingivalis is a keystone pathogen in chronic periodontitis and lives in pockets of the gum.

Pockets that conventional brushing with toothpaste is supposed to eliminate, but doesn’t.

From the bacteria Porphyromonas Gingivalis comes gingipains, a family of neurotoxic enzymes that have been discovered in the brains of Alzheimer’s patients but not in the brains of healthy people.

Porhyromonas Gingivalis is found predominantly in your gums.

Another study was carried out on people averaging around 60 years of age in reasonably good health. 

It showed for the first time a link between periodontal disease and the accumulation of plaques in the brain containing these gingipains.   

Here was evidence of the root cause of memory impairment; the conclusion was that periodontal inflammation may increase the risk for amyloid deposition (one of the central neuropathological abnormalities in Alzheimer disease).

It came as no surprise that the NYU study was sidelined by mainstream science who’d already told us what causes Alzheimer’s Disease and were selling their profitable medicines for it.

It’s All About Connections

Described in simple terms, each tooth is connected to a part of your brain through tiny nerves.  

The Interactive ToothCharts evidence that link. (charts also available in French, Spanish, Chinese and Portuguese).

Infections from the gums travel from the tooth to the nose, to the eyes and ultimately to the brain causing a swelling.

The gingipain-infused plaque within the swelling makes it harder for your brain to recall memories.

You know the information you’re trying to recall is there, yet it’s gone, faster than dew in the morning sun.

If you dentist recommends you have a deep cleaning, it’ll make absolutely no difference because the gingipains have already travelled too far.

To find out if this affects you, do this test first thing tomorrow morning when you wake up.

Cup your hand to your nose and sniff.  If you have unpleasant or ‘morning’ breath then the bacteria are already there.

If you haven’t got a good sense of smell, ask your partner to sniff for you and tell him/her not to engage in any white lies. 

If you have a metallic taste in your mouth when you wake up, the bacteria is already affecting the nerves and you need to do something before you start walking down memory loss lane.

A study conducted by University of Michigan showed that there are 20 billion bacteria in your mouth.  

These reproduce every 5 hours.  

If you don’t clean your teeth for 24 hours….well you can do the maths.

It doesn’t matter how much money you spend at the dentist for regular cleanings, conventional medicine has found no answer to these gum destroying bacteria.

No matter how well you clean your teeth, at least 10% of the bacteria will remain in your gum pockets, ideal locations for bacteria as toxins have an entrance into the body through pockets around and in the tooth. 

There’s your ticking time bomb.

How To Minimise the Chances of Getting Alzheimer’s Disease

Step 1: Eliminate The Bacteria  

Go for the source and keep at it. This is where the trouble originates.

Most days I rinse with water and a couple of drops of iodine.  I also add a few drops of iodine to my drinking water when I load up a new bottle.

Iodine is an underrated cleanser. It is capable of killing pathogens that include bacteria, fungi, yeasts, mycobacteria, viruses* and protozoa.

[* viruses include COVID-19]

Most bacteria will die within 15 to 30 seconds of contact.

We’ve been brainwashed into believing that fluoride is what’s needed and that’s plain wrong, especially as it has been shown to harm children’s developing IQ.

I wrote in my ebook “Brushing and Flossing Causes Gum Disease“: 

“Fluoridated water is unquestionably a massive mandatory medication, using the endorsement of government health departments and dentists to propagate the myth that it helps to prevent tooth decay; public water supplies/reservoirs and bottled water are the drug delivery system of choice. Why do they bother to claim that fluoride is there to protect your teeth when 70% of tooth loss is caused by gum disease? This doesn’t even pass the laugh test.”

You can also use Huperzine, a great dietary supplement derived from the Chinese club moss Huperzia serrata.  

Huperzine acts as a cholinesterase inhibitor — a type of medication that works by improving the performance of neurotransmitters in the brain.

Step 2:  Repair Those Damaged Brain Cells  

Vinpocetine s a compound from the Periwinkle plant that’s used as a cognitive protective and anti-aging agent. 

It opens up your brain’s blood vessels, pumping your head full of oxygen and sparking nerve cells back to life. 

This new blood flow also flushes out cerebral toxins and helps your neurons fire faster re-building your memory recall processes! 

In one study, participants at the University of Leeds in England used Vinpocetine and experienced less memory fatigue and improved reaction times in a matter of days.

Vinpocetine may improve blood flow and is believed to increase memory.

[NOTE: Sadly Vinpocetine has been banned in many countries “due to potential harmful nootropic characteristics as a cognitive enhancing supplement”. Wow! Nootropics are natural (or synthetic) substances that can be taken to improve mental performance in healthy people.]

Step 3: Protect The Brain  

Studies in China have repeatedly evidenced that Ginkgo Biloba reduces the detection rate of periodontal disease pathogens.

If you have any mercury (or amalgam) fillings and are concerned about the potential damage from mercury vapour from fillings that are positioned only a few inches below your brain, click on this link:

We don’t supply these herbs but they’re available online.

From what I’ve already witnessed, the alternative to a lifetime of clear thinking is not worth considering.

PS Blotting Brushes do an infinitely better job of removing plaque and food debris from pockets than conventional brushing, and reaches into the gum pockets.

I’ve always had great respect for the Asian approach to medicine.

Being born in Hong Kong and living there for a total of 35 years, from an early age I was fascinated by the Traditional Chinese Medicine shops with their herbal powders, pastes, lotions and potions.

Even as a teenager I’d linger at the entrance of these shops, curious about the contents of the many wooden containers and baskets. 

Inevitably a kindly old gentleman would offer me a cup of herbal tea – usually something strong that I’d initially treat with suspicion but was somehow palatable. 

I never really knew what I was drinking but readily accepted the gesture as a contribution to balancing my Yin and Yang.

In the mid 1970’s I studied Acupressure at the Hong Kong City Hall.  Phylipa studied there too, albeit a year or so before me.

Armed with enthusiasm and my copious notes, I first practiced on my mum, pressing key acupressure points on her arm until she went “Ow’.  According to my notes she’d just had a mild stroke. 

She responded to my student diagnosis with a smile and just a little doubt.

A few months later she went for her annual medical, The ECG test showed “a mild coronary” had indeed taken place at about that time.

Kudos for me!

Then it was my dad’s turn.  

During a game of golf I counted 9 strokes before he reached the green on a Par 3.  

Something was clearly wrong.  I asked him what he thought the cause may be.

Opening with the usual “Oh nothing”, it transpired that when he woke in the mornings, the top of the middle finger on his right hand was experiencing “pins and needles”.

As the day went on, this sensation spread through his fingers, hand and arm right up to his elbow.

I pulled out my rotes again and went to work until I found his sore point. I wasn’t surprised when we determined that he was suffering from a blood circulation issue.

After three days of gently massaging a point between his wrist and his elbow for 5 minutes a day, his pins and needles completely disappeared.

Wanting to deepen my understanding of the physical body I went on to study Jin Shin Jyutsu, a form of therapy with ancient origins in Japan. 

Like Acupressure, Jin Shin Jyutsu uses gentle finger pressure over particular points of the body to restore the flow of energy that may have become blocked  through illness or pain.

The solution to all our problems lie inside us.  All we need to do is ‘look and listen’. 

Last week I came across something that surprised me (in a good way).

I’ll admit to nearly switching off but as the narrative progressed my interest perked up, especially as I was listening to something that would help reverse illness, dissolve pain, address the root cause of health problems….and all in just 3 minutes a day.

At last someone had combined aspects of Traditional Chinese Medicine with sound frequencies.

And it’s come at a time where many people are caught like deer in the headlights with doctors and hospitals metaphorically running us over with their ‘irrefutable’ science.

(Science by the way is never irrefutable; never 100%.  It is always a work in progress!).

A study showed that that 80% of first diagnoses by doctors in the USA were incorrect. That suggestion alone should make us stop blindly trusting men in white coats. 

Dealing with our own aches and pain or even preventing poor health conditions from occurring in the first place is so much easier than we think.

Set aside time to listen to what Emily Parker has to say about Dr Lin Xiaoxi’s work in this valuable video.

Watch it because drug companies will soon be scrambling to protect their 1000% profit margins in wake of this booming natural therapy.

It has significant potential to change your life in terms of wellbeing and a reduced need for questionable medication.

This is great value when you compare the alternative (electro-acupuncture sessions)…and it’s non-invasive!

What Emily says is genuine and the conditions she covers include:

• Chronic pain
• Low Immunity (especially valuable these days)
• Fatigue/Low energy
• High Blood Pressure (an infinitely better option than pills)
• Depression and anxiety (more common than you think)
• Insomnia
• Allergies     

There’s an option to join their VIP Club, The first monthly issue is FREE for you to try out. Check it out over the next 30 days and if you’re happy to stay a member for the practical information you’ll receive.

There’s absolutely no obligation to continue; you can cancel at any time by emailing them.

PS  I compiled an ebook some while ago that addresses the symptoms of many poor health conditions.

The ebook is free to download and is more a reference book than a page turner but once you download it you’ll have access to a range of potential causes your doctor is not likely to know about unless he/she has studied aspects of natural therapy outside the allopathic training

I back it up with an email ‘TheBodySpeaks’ every Friday to explore other possibilities

…Can Accelerate Tooth Decay

My colleagues at OraWellness have highlighted a growing problem known as Mask Mouth that’s on the increase because of recent mask wearing directives.

Before I get to that permit me a little vent…..

I don’t wear a mask for several reasons:

• the mesh on the majority of masks is insufficiently microscopic to prevent coronavirus to pass through (see Doc Graham piece below).
• the blue masks and several others are pre-sprayed with PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) a highly toxic chemical that’s been linked to a synthetic fluoride used to coat non-stick cookware. It’s not something you should breathe in because of its association with cancer.
• “In a world where everyone is so obsessed with alkalizing, guess what happens when you re-breathe your carbon dioxide? That’s right, blood pH drops and you retain acid and have to get rid of it some other way. I hope you have a good kidneys.” Dr Suzanne Humphries
• “Those masks are only effective so long as they are dry,” said Professor Yvonne Cossart of the Department of Infectious Diseases at the University of Sydney. As soon as they become saturated with the moisture in your breath they stop doing their job and pass on the droplets.“Professor Cossart said that could take as little as 15 or 20 minutes, after which the mask would need to be changed.”
• And we mustn’t forget Nobel Prize winner Dr Otto Warburg’s words regarding the root cause of cancer:  “Deprive a cell 35% of its oxygen for 48 hours and it may become cancerous”

I’m not telling you off for wearing a mask.  If you believe they’re benefiting you then keep it on; just look closer before adhering to questionable government health recommendations….then make your decision.

Back to ‘Mask Mouth’….and how it brings about tooth decay.

Rather than regurgitate what OraWellness has written I’ve put the link below so you can see it in full for yourself.

I would add that you can attain a good oral hygiene regimen with Blotting Brushes and MiniBlots

Mask Mouth: The use of cloth masks by healthcare workers may actually put them at increased risk of respiratory illness and viral infections and their global use should be discouraged, according to a UNSW study.

A recent New York Times column about the epidemic of cracked teeth was brought to my attention and it’s well worth reading.

Written by Tammy Chen, DDS (a prosthodontist with a practice in Manhattan), it described the epidemic as something she’s come across in her patients during the COVID pandemic.

Dr. Chen pointed her finger at two culprits: 

• the slumped posture many people adopt while working from home with improvised furniture,

• excessive anxiety and stress. 

Both of these lead to jaw clenching and tooth grinding.

Here’s Dr. Chen’s analysis of the causes of cracked teeth; learn what you can do to avoid the same fate yourself!

Click here to determine how important her article is to you.

Our Blotting Brushes and MiniBlots may not deal with the specific damage of jaw clenching or tooth grinding but they’ve been giving people a more effective way of keeping their mouth healthy than conventional brushes and toxic toothpastes do.

Why is it that very few dentists want to know more about these brushes?

Because modern techniques are about restoration rather than prevention; dentists want you to make appointments to have remedial work done!

When did you last hear your dentist say “Congratulations. Your mouth is healthy.  There’s nothing to be done this time either”.

If you have, your dentist may be a keeper!

For 50 years, Blotting Brushes and MiniBlots continue to put all other brushing and flossing techniques to shame.

Thankfully there is an alternative to dentists!

Over the years I’ve spoken with, met, and on occasion had the privilege to work with people whose efforts have been focussed on a particular aspect of health.  

These include John Chang – The ‘Energy Man’ (Jakarta), Master Herbalist Bachir Aboukhazaal (Damascus), Egyptian Parasitologist Dr. Omar Amin (Phoenix), Periodontist and Blotting Brush Inventor Dr. Joseph Phillips (Wisconsin), Birth Trauma pioneer Ray Castellino (Santa Barbara), Traditional Chinese Medicine educator Frances Wong (Hong Kong) and I will include the extraordinary paludières (salt farmers) in Guerande, Brittany.

All of them exude (or exuded) an extraordinary energy that accompanies a lifetime of authentic effort.

I’ve now added to this list Doug Simons, a man who has spent more than 20 years living primitively in the Sonoran Desert and other wildernesses. I wasn’t at his talk in the shade of a Palo Duro tree but we have since spoken and I am in occasional correspondence with his colleague Marjory Wildcraft.

Doug’s endeavours over the past 20 years have proved to be nothing short of extraordinary.

Click on the link at the end and you’ll find the clear evidence of our body’s natural ability to heal itself.

Doug is passing on his knowledge about the simple steps we need to take to heal our mouth rather than repair it through drillings, mercury fillings and gum surgery.

What you’ll discover needs to be shared widely. I secured a copy myself in 2017 but the offer quickly disappeared from the internet.

The exciting news is that it’s available again for us to learn how we can clean our teeth and keep our gums healthy using ancient wisdoms.…and there’s minimal effort required on our part.

If you thought I only used Blotting Brushes, understand that I use the brushes to keep my teeth and gums clean and healthy from daily attrition.

I use the Doug’s ‘Alternative To Dentists’ for prevention – something that dentists don’t teach you about, mostly because it’s not taught to them in dental school.

The ‘Alternative To Dentists’ approach offers you a toxin- and surgery-free approach…..

    • no harmful toxins like fluoride or mercury

    • no chemicals that damage the teeth and gums

    • no traumatic dental procedures like drilling, extractions, or surgery!

Most of us have been subjected to what I call the ‘wrong end’ of dentistry.  I’ve been there too and thankfully was able to make transformational changes in the past decade.

No Needles.  No Drills.  No Pain, And No $$$ Bills!

What lights me up is:

• Reduced visits to the dentist (saving a bunch of money)

• Your teeth are alive and can heal themselves

• You’ll learn how to re-grow protective tooth enamel 

• For the first time in ages you can have squeaky clean teeth again

• Remineralise cavities – Strengthen enamel – Naturally whiten.

I remember having goosebumps when I first read this.

MOST IMPORTANT is that the approach reduces your exposure to harmful antibiotic resistant bacteria that are too often lurking in the very dental clinics you’re sitting in, waiting for your appointment.

Here you’ll learn what you need to know about taking proper care of your dental health – and remember 80% of poor health conditions in your body start in your mouth.

Doug and his team are so confident it’ll work they offers a 100% money back guarantee.
