General Discussion / Plant Food Nutrients
« on: July 21, 2017, 11:05:19 PM »
"...not talking about the small but significant decline in nutrient density since the industrialization of agriculture half a century ago, but rather a steep drop in phytonutrients that began when we "stopped foraging for wild plants some 10,000 years ago and became farmers." Robinson writes:
Each fruit and vegetable in our stores has a unique history of nutrient loss, I've discovered, but there are two common themes. Throughout the ages, our farming ancestors have chosen the least bitter plants to grow in their gardens. It is now known that many of the most beneficial phytonutrients have a bitter, sour or astringent taste. Second, early farmers favored plants that were relatively low in fiber and high in sugar, starch and oil. These energy-dense plants were pleasurable to eat and provided the calories needed to fuel a strenuous lifestyle. The more palatable our fruits and vegetables became, however, the less advantageous they were for our health.
I would push back against the inverse relationship Robinson posits between palatability and nutrition. I imagine that we've lost a lot of flavor in the ages-old quest to breed for sweetness—and in the last 100 years or so, we've definitely lost still more by breeding for portability and shelf life. I would argue that flavor has declined along with nutrient density. Few people would choose modern supermarket tomatoes bred to last for weeks post-harvest over old varieties selected to taste good when eaten quickly. And weeds play a role in some of the globe's most celebrated cuisines. I wouldn't want to imagine Mexico's street food without tlacoyos con quelites (lamb's quarters) or Italy without ravioli d'ortica (stinging nettles). There's no puritanical trade-off here. (Patience Gray's classic Honey from a Weed demonstrates how vital weeds remain in southern European cooking, and Rebecca Katz and Mat Edelson's recent The Longevity Kitchen offers plenty of good recipes for them).
What we can do is start seeking out varieties of fruits and vegetables that haven't been bred to be insipidly sweet.
That caveat aside, what do we do with Robinson's message about the loss of phytonutrients? Obviously, we can't all suddenly become hunter-gatherers, stalking city parks for hidden bounty (though a fellow who calls himself "Wildman" will take you on a foraging tour of Manhattan's Central Park). Nor can we all live on small organic farms surrounded by woodlands.
But what we can do is start seeking out varieties of fruits and vegetables that haven't been bred to be insipidly sweet or high-yielding. Robinson suggests arugula as an example—it was a Mediterranean weed until very recently. Arugula is "very similar to its wild ancestor," she notes, and "rich in cancer-fighting compounds called glucosinolates and higher in antioxidant activity than many green lettuces." Robinson also points to herbs, which she calls "wild plants incognito." That is, they much more closely resemble their wild antecedents than do, say, modern apples or tomatoes or corn. She adds: "We've long valued them for their intense flavors and aroma, which is why they've not been given a flavor makeover. Because we've left them well enough alone, their phytonutrient content has remained intact."

Tobacco Healing / Tobacco Information
« on: July 21, 2017, 10:37:15 PM »
A tobacco cigarette is a gift from the heavens. My most sacred and cherished plant is tobacco. I won't smoke any cigarettes you can buy at the store. There's literally 599 (http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/sci_tech/features/health/tobaccotrial/inacigarette599.htm)
chemical additives that are put into cigarettes: Cyanide, formaldehyde, arsenic, DDT. DDT is not even a legal pesticide anymore. It's deemed too harmful to put on crops, but they'll add it into your cigarette to smoke it. Those 599 different chemicals that are in your cigarette (through combustion/burning, break down into over 7,000 different known chemicals, mostly all carcinogenic. All that aside, studies have shown that the single largest source of radiation to any one person is from cigarettes. In the 1940's doctors recommended people smoke cigarettes for stress. Afterwards they started fertilizing tobacco fields with radioactive isotopes, such as polonium. It can still be labelled organic because the radioactive fertilizers are naturally occurring elements; albeit condensed. Population control? Disposal of military waste through your body as a filtration system, the most advanced-god given biological filter in existence. -- Blame tobacco, that tobacco causes cancer; Studies have proven that nicotine is not a carcinogen. it's a mental stimulant and relaxant, tobacco contains harmala alkaloids which are Glutamate NMDA receptor antagonists -- which are proven to be anti-cancer/tumor, and they reset the brain, they lower tolerances / resensitize the brain to serotonin and dopamine, which help stop withdrawals from other drugs.

Make your own cigarettes and plant tobacco. The natives believed that -- that was our purpose, That tobacco is spirit food for helping spirits, that when you pray or put intention into the act of smoking, that the smoke carries your wishes to the heavens. They use it as a smudge to denounce negative energies, "Soplando", the act of blowing tobacco smoke as to cleanse a space and put a protection barrier, be-it sickness in an area of the person, to cleanse the spiritual eyes of a person (the crown chakra, the soles of the feet, and the palms of the hands. negativity, bad spirits, etc. And to call in helpful spirits with tobacco as a spirit food. Tobacco is a divine sacrament, which has been sacrilegiously disgraced.

You can buy an electric cigarette machine used on eBay for like 50 bucks (Powermatic 2), Unbleached (no chlorine) tubes off amazon, $20 for 5 cartons- menthol or non. Tubes that don't come with the FSC approved "fire-safe" cigarette paper, -- which contains thylene vinyl acetate copolymer A.K.A. carpet glue. Yes, ladies and gentlemen you are inhaling/huffing burning glue. According to a Harvard Study, the self extinguishing cigarettes produces 13.9% more Naphthalene and 11.4% more carbon monoxide.

And you can buy tobacco, Ohm or Kentucky Select brands - a lb of shredded tobacco for like $26 shipped. Or 5 lb for like $60 shipped. It's funny- American spirits, owned by R.J. Reynolds (whom owns also: Newport, Camel, Pall Mall, Kent, Doral, Misty, and Capri. --It's funny that American spirits can be considered organic when the amount of radiation they contain amounts to the average smoker of commercial cigarettes getting the equivalent of 250 chest X-rays worth of radiation in a years time. Yet "Kentucky Select", a family farm that was once "organic" but couldn't afford to continue paying the costs the USDA deems necessary and charges for allowing of "organic" labeling on a product.

Commercial cigarettes are 25% tobacco, 25% chemical additives, and 50% reconstituted tobacco (stems, tobacco swept off factory floor, etc.

General Discussion / Re: First Time Kambo - Can it cause Psychosis?
« on: July 06, 2017, 02:27:26 PM »
You're very welcome and I'm humbly honored to have helped you along your path. Just remember that the positive most healthy things are the last things you want to do when depressed, but the most effective at getting you out of being down. I have suffered with periods of heavy depression my whole life, and also thoughts of suicide. The past 2 years have been the hardest time of my life; with so much going wrong and a serious health problem which is embarrassing as I train to be a healer, but I don't always follow my own advice or do what I should, and like to party.

hope it´s ok to speak it out here) and I felt, like this was the other part of the toxins, which were flushed out of my body.
Yes, it is appropriate to talk about anything related to the body with practitioners, any that are bothered should go into a different field.
And yes, this is a common effect of kambo, a bit afterwards. Kambo pushes toxins into the elimination pathways. And that was another purge for you.

I encourage you to be strong and stay on the good path so you can feel better. Have you done a vegetarian diet or vegan before?
If not, it really will make you feel a lot better, you will be so surprised. I started a vegan diet again today.
It is tough but the healthier you eat, and the longer you go, the less you crave sugar and unhealthy foods.
Sugar is the number one drug addiction in the world, or at least here in america, but few realize it.

If you're a cigarette smoker, I so encourage you to smoke additive-free tobacco.
We have a thread on it here: http://kambo.me/smf/index.php?topic=395
I'm not sure what the quality of your cigarettes or the brands you have in Germany, but here they are straight up poison.
And what a world of difference it is to make my own from organic tobacco, in health and appreciation for the tobacco plant.

Best regards, and keep up the vegan diet, it well help cleanse out any toxins that may have been left behind, when you said you wanted to puke more the 2nd time.
A vegan diet is something everyone should try, if only once, and it is very good for cleansing.
You will see that you felt weighed down before, that after deep cleanse you feel lighter and emotional energy has been lifted off of you.

Folk Contraceptive “Thunder God Vine” Contains Chemicals That Really Prevent Conception

The head of a human sperm is just five puny microns long. To get through the 30-micron-deep zona pellucida, it has to turn its tail into a powerful drill. Instead of beating side to side, it starts to turn in only one direction, corkscrewing the head forward, through the dense, viscous environment of the egg’s outer layers. Scientists call this maneuver the “power kick.

And what powers the power kick? A massive dump of calcium ions into the sperm’s tail. (Ion transfer across membranes is how cells generate the electricity they need to power motor function.)

Quote
While there are thousands of different kinds of ion channels in every cell in the human body, the power kick relies on just one, found only in sperm. Its name is Catsper. And it only activates to let calcium in when it gets close to an egg and encounters progesterone. Scientists have known about Catsper (the friendly, sperm-specific ion channel) since 2001, when they stumbled across it while studying male infertility. The patients, it turned out, had a mutation in at least one of the nine genes that code for Catsper.

In a paper published today in PNAS, researchers at UC Berkeley screened more than 50 chemical compounds to find a few that could tightly bind with Catsper, gumming up its channel and preventing the calcium dump needed for a power kick. The two most promising ones both come from plants that humans have been consuming for millennia: lupeol, a compound found in mangos, grapes, and olives, and pristimerin, which comes from an ancient medicinal herb known as the “Thunder God Vine.

General Discussion / Re: any kambo contraindications?
« on: June 22, 2017, 06:43:05 PM »
I wouldn't say there are no substances that can cause contraindications at all. Though it's not really known. I would avoid kambo on people with heart conditions or people that take blood pressure meds or drugs that change heart rate a lot, specifically raise it.

It in an intense experience, remember the heart pounding, hot flushed tight feelings are normal. And The purge is the culmination in which you star tfeeling better as soon as your letting it out. And you will feel a lot better after a little rest immediately after. Looking forward from hearing back from you. =)

Don't see how, as it is just a purgative which makes you feel better and lighter afterwards, lighter of toxins in the body weighing you down and also of emotional baggage / auric energy.

Nice! Sorry, fixed the link. Thanks for pointing that out. I've noticed after harvesting they grow back fully the next year. At least the biggest one in the most prominent spot, I can see it from where I stand at work.

I love chaga. It grows like crazy by my job. Tastes a bit like vanilla maple syrup to me. I break it up with a hammer and make pretty strong teas with it, using lowish heat and brew it for a good while. It's has one of the highest anti-oxidant values of any plant recorded.

It is anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, anti-tumor, anti-viral, regulates blood sugar, regulates immune system, and is a liver tonic.

Really great post, thanks for sharing.

Mint is a really good cooling / yin herb. I think one tribe does their kambo rituals on the full moon and that there was a post about it somewhere here.
May add more later, gotta run.

There's not enough information to go by but sounds like the person might have a weakened liver and when Kambo is trying to push toxins out of the system, the liver has to process that.
A vegetarian diet; lots of fruits / vegetables, juicing / fasts or cleanses should help if that is the issue. We have some threads here on liver & gallbladder cleanse, herbal enemas, etc.
Milk Thistle's compound silymarin is shown to protect liver cells.
Most importantly, lots of water to flush the liver.
