The Healthy Hub and The Vaccination Obsession



We just got back from Ubud, Bali a few weeks ago. Oh, it was so great to be in such a healthy environment with people who are in the same awake mind set and where there are sooo many healthy restaurants. It is a treat to be able to go out and have so many healthy vegetarian and vegan food options, from amazing dishes and salads to unbelievable smoothies and elixirs, delicious healthy desserts and snacks, and yummy vegan ice cream… It was actually being in healthy heaven. I saw the future and it is exciting!


But as we all know, flying in an airplane for 12 hours isn't the healthiest thing you can be doing to yourself. A few days after we got back I came down with a horrible flu and it was the domino effect where the whole household followed, even little baby Oraya was sick for over a week. And the babysitter caught it too.

Everyone I met who heard we got the flu said: 

“Oh…I got vaccinated! Why didn't you just get vaccinated?”

Well, it isn't much fun having the flu, but I feel obligated to write this newsletter and “beg” you to educate yourself on what really is a vaccine? What is in the so called ‘innocent’ vaccines? And what can be the side effects?

The information is freely available on the web. It is so shocking that most conventional doctors aren't even aware of it. Did you ever wonder why the governments worldwide are pushing everyone to get the flu vaccine? Things aren't always what we think they are…

In the links below it is explained much better than I can, but here are just a few of the ingredients that are in the vaccine cocktail that wouldn't be the best for anyone and especially a newborn baby’s immune system:
Heavy metals (mercury, aluminum)
Antigens that cause clumping of red blood cells, leading to cardiovascular disease
Formaldehyde – a preservative and carcinogen
MSG
May be contaminated with live viruses that aren't supposed to be there 

Pieces of DNA and RNA from viruses

Possible side effects of vaccines:
Destruction of brain cells
Dementia
AIDS
Cancer
Autoimmune diseases

Especially in babies and children:
Autism
Seizures
SIDS death
Weakening of the immune system
Type 1 diabetes
Asthma
Brain tumors

Why Eat Strawberries, and Why Take a Break



Wow! It’s the last month of 2013 – hard to believe! The year just flew by, with 2014 right around the corner…

I haven’t written a newsletter in quite a few months. 
Looking back, for me 2013 was a great but not an easy year: becoming a mother to beautiful Oraya who just turned 1 year old, and at my age of 42 motherhood does take some adapting to; finishing my book “The Power Of Food” and having it published in Israel; doing continuous work at our Irish company Superl!fe which just got rebranded; and living life in general…  

Over the past two months I decided I needed to slow down and do a bit less for a while.
That isn’t my nature, but it is very important in life to know when to take a break and not push yourself beyond your limits (which I used to often do), otherwise life will force us to take a break … either by becoming sick or by something else happening that will make us STOP!

When have you last taken a break – a real break? Do you feel you need one?
Even if it is only one day of no phones, no computer, no work…
We often don’t even take the weekend off, not really… 


And regarding the strawberries….

I used to eat lots of fruit, mostly apples. But since I went organic a few good years ago and the organic fruit is so expensive, I find myself eating less fruit. Though I still love my smoothies with fruit!
A few weeks ago after doing a yoga class in the Tel-Aviv port I went to the little Friday market located there. Few stands are organic stands but one of the conventional stands was selling 100% organic strawberries. It was Oraya’s Birthday and I decided to buy them.


I was so happy that she loved them. A great baby food, as she loves holding onto her food.
Since then I have been buying them every Friday.
I put them on everything: for breakfast, in smoothies, salads and even in sandwiches… they are delicious!!!

Here are a few insights just why strawberries are so healthy: 



- All berries are very high in antioxidants, neutralizing the free radicals that cause oxidation and that have negative effects on our cells.
- Excellent source of Vitamin C, which is an unbelievable antioxidant with many benefits. Just to name a few: boosts our immune system, is an amazing healer, can help prevent cancer, promotes a healthy heart, important for the production of collagen (that makes our skin elastic and young looking) and more…
- Source of fiber, natural sugars, low in calories so are a great additive to any food, a great snack and delicious in smoothies!

Buckwheat Strawberry Breakfast


When I met Diarmuid, now my husband, he would not begin the day without his oat porridge. 

He was totally hooked on it. But when we arrived back in Israel a few months ago during the heat of September, he went off oats.
This is his new most loved breakfast. Even if you think you don’t like buckwheat – you have to try this recipe.


Ingredients:
½ cup unroasted buckwheat (soak overnight)
almond milk – so easy to make your own (see recipe below)
superfoods (cacao nibs, chia seeds, goji berries…)
cinnamon
optional: nuts, raisins, healthy granola
strawberries

Method:
Soak buckwheat over night (use the green unroasted - very high in protein, gluten free and mild in taste)
Rinse and cook in twice the amount of water for 10-15 minutes., till soft but still crunchy
Strain off excess water and place in bowl
Add nuts, raisins, superfoods, cinnamon
Add almond milk
Slice strawberries on top

Easy Almond Milk
Soak a handful of almonds over night
In the morning drain and blend with a half cup of water
Strain
Voila – you have almond milk!!
Or you can just blend water with almond paste



Wishing us all a StawVerry Healthy and Happy 2014 Year
