Minerals are crucial for healthy bodies, and potassium is imperative. So how many potassium rich foods do you have in your daily, weekly and monthly menu. Have you considered it's importance.
Did you know that the American diet has a 98% potassium deficiency, best not to eat an American diet.
Food impacts on health. This post was a look at European health stats and how in the 70's, the Brits were outliving the Italians, and now the Italians are outliving the Brits.
When I was on the Ketonic diet, over 15 years ago, my menu's changed, and as such it changed my view of food altogether. I began to eat raw spinach as salad, and I really like raw spinach covered with raw tomatoes, covered with mozzarella cheese, covered with olive oil and some oregano herbs.
Sometimes I would also include avocado, some red onion, olives and a sprinkle of balsamic vinegar. A great and refreshing summer lunch. Egg mayonnaise goes great with it too. I also like watercress with it, and watercress is great for getting more oxygen to the brain.
I am in for extra potassium boosters this week, with fresh spinach, avocado's, homegrown tomatoes, I might also have some homegrown celery, as it looks great. The celery leaves are so powerful. I think we should have a national tomato festival in the UK, to celebrate our English produce and encourage our people to eat more fresh tomatoes. Truly wonderful fruit!
Gastrophysics, the first international symposium was held in Copenhagen in 2012. "The emerging science of gastrophysics". The new science of eating.
I have always liked anchovies, fresh and tinned. I used to put anchovies on my homemade pizza's when my son was growing up. He didn't like anchovies so I just put them on my side of the deep pan pizza with a mountain of ingredients.
I really like fresh raw marinated anchovies on a salad, and I always have a few tins in the cupboard, as I do like seafood and fish very much. Tinned anchovies are an acquired taste, (and taste different to the fresh variety) as they are very salty, although high in nutrients, you don't require many to make a lovely meal. Half a small tin is plenty for one person for one meal.

In recent days I really fancied some spaghetti for a change, so it was an anchovy and spaghetti dinner this evening. Tomato was also called for today, so tomato in dinner it was.
I boiled my spaghetti, and while that was boiling, I gently sauted half an onion, in two finely chopped cloves of garlic in olive oil. When the onions were soft, included some homemade salsa, (that I had taken out of the freezer yesterday), plus home grown herbs, three different types of basil, (loads of it) and some parsley with some black pepper.
When cooked, mixed it up with the drained spaghetti, sprinkled it with mozzarella cheese, and put my anchovies on the top. Delicious with a slice of buttered brown seed bread, and a glass of red wine, dinner for one!
So lots of nutrients in my dinner this evening, anchovies are strong in sodium, so it's important for people to know what they're eating, as some people have to limit the amount of sodium that they consume due to health conditions. I have minimal sodium in my menu's, although I know when my body is asking for some sodium. Seafood is incredibly important for nutrients, and minerals, so seafood is included in healthy food menu's.
I've been looking at these health reports on the fact that the Italians live longer than the British, whereas in the 1970's, Britons were living longer than the Italians. The report says that the Italians also have more years of good health before "disease and disability" set in too.
On life expectancy the Brits came in at 14th place, whereas Italy has risen from 5th place to 2nd place ahead of France, Germany and Sweden. Some write that is astonishing when you consider that the Italians have been heavy smokers, they earn less, they spend less on healthcare, and live longer than us, quoting from the report. The BBC report that the Lancet looked at a 20 year progression, and the UK did poorly in comparison with health outcomes in 19 countries.
What we do know about Italy is that it has the most ecological land in Europe, it's farmers stood up to the corporations. Hence, the Italians put the quality of their food above yields, the Italians put nutritious food in the forefront of their lives. I remember the days of five hour long lunches of five courses in Italy, incredible. Italian food is wonderful, farmed, cooked, and prepared with love.

Italy also gets a lot more sunshine than the Brits do too, and the Brits can't afford to go on holidays like they did in the 70's, due to EU membership and the EURO. A lot of Brits actually moved abroad for health reasons, to be in a better climate for their health. Southern Europe being the area that most Brits moved too for the sunshine and healthy food.
However, the fact that the health of the UK has changed so drastically, as to be looked at deeply. It's no coincidence that it aligns with EU membership and it's impact upon our countries.
Certainly convenience food, processed foods, food prices and multi-culturalism has been a factor in changing what people in the UK have eaten since the 70's. The fact that British people were outliving the Italians, in the 70's, indicates that there has been a major change to our culture, that the cultural food changes have not been healthy for our country in the medium to longer term.
Health professionals will often ask what you eat and drink, whether you smoke or drink, in Italy they smoke and drink. Although drinking wine is usually with food.
The word given is TOMATO. They certainly eat a lot of tomatoes in Italy and Spain, and they are so easy to grow. Did people in the UK eat more English tomatoes in the 70's, than they do now, that would be worth looking into.
Let's see what the UK tomatoe producers have to say about it. On this link they mention what has happened to some of the imported tomatoes, particularly Spain and the South American tomato.
Over three-quarters of tomato fruit consumption in the UK is imported fruit.
The UK has definitely imported more fruit since the 70's and that fruit can be at least seven day's old prior to it reaching the stores. Surely, eating the freshest fruit in this case is the best, and the freshest fruit is going to be local. In fact, you can even grow your own.
Tomato growing is definitely increasing in the UK, see the link from the British farmers. Yields now have also increased since 25 years ago. Yippee! http://www.britishtomatoes.co.uk/tomato-facts/
Tomato week in the UK was in May 2017. The farmers annual conference was in July 2017.

As Maggie Thatcher said, "Buy British".
Support our local farmers and agriculture, the NFU say that our farmers manage 75% of our land in the UK. Our farmers defending the land and green spaces at the same time as growing food for our nations.
As Ray Finch says, why would we wish to stay in a club with people that would wish to destroy us after we left it. Doesn't that remind you of the Islamic strategy, whereby if people leave their ideology, their heads can be removed.

This report is about a leaked memo and the intention of France. Just because the French engaged in "cultural genocide", doesn't mean that the English have to continue to be in their club of it. Our country should stop funding the EU, stop paying for "cultural genocide" of our own countries in the UK. Enough is enough, we shall not be "bullied", or pressured into submitting to the demands of the French, the Germans, or anyone else.

Our people are not afraid, and the tactics of the EU, won't work on us, we remember what Jesus shared with us, and the Islands did await the law as Prophet Isaiah foretold. This is the land of Joseph, the vine that climbs over every wall. What vines do you have growing in your garden.

And in Germany the German leaders are turning on each other as was anticipated, as Germany will have to increase it's financial input to the EU due to the UK leaving.
Schulz is going after Merkel, "If you want to be a state leader in Europe, you must acquire the trust of the peoples", Schulz said. Who could or would ever trust Merkel and her friend Obama, not us Europeans, wisdom did the count on the man mentioned in Rev 13.
Maggie Thatcher was correct about the EU plan, to make the "poor, poorer", as she said, the lady is not for turning. The UK paid a lot into the membership of the EU and yet Schulz reveals that it is Poland and Hungary that have been the biggest net recipients of EU funding.
Germany thought they could buy the allegiance of those countries, and Poland and Hungary have said no, to the "cultural genocide", by not taking any of the migrants that they are being told to take.
Evergreen student, American, McKenzie Kyger shares what has been happening on the campus that tried to silence her for having white skin. We knew that Obama was a very divisive figure, the outcome of his tenure, "violence on campuses" in America, and the "closing down of freedom of speech" on campuses. This young woman will not be silenced, her voice must be heard.
The Evergreen state college, Olympia, Washington had to be closed, innocent students cannot be put in harm's way. The school board of Trustees have carried out an investigation, and it includes the police force giving their view on the whole situation too. The American police force are asking for rifles.

One of the professors Bret Weinstein, a professor of Biology, has also had to move location to protect his family from students.
George Bridges, made a strategic choice to allow the students to "run wild", in this video he mentions the "disrespect" of the faculty, that has been on-going on the Evergreen campus.

As a side note, students come to college to learn, every student should have integrated self-discipline prior to attending any academic institution, or any training anywhere. If a student at any time cannot implement respect and civility for their environment, and their professors, then they should be removed from that environment that they find so difficult to adhere to.
It requires rationality to have a decent discussion and debate with someone. That also applies to situations outside of the academic sphere. One might ask what does this have to do with the UK, not the first time we have seen "student bullying", beginning in our country too.
Frankly, if ethnic minority groups feel 'alienated", at medical school, as is suggested in that article, due to some historic portraits, then surely, they're not equipped for such academic training that our education institution's offer.
Perhaps those students should go home and train with their own ethnic origin, perhaps then they will be happy, being much closer to their roots of who they are. Enough, really is enough! Live in our European countries, do it our way, or go back home, and be educated in a different country.
We cannot have a situation whereby professors and deans are bending to student pressure. Otherwise you end up with the "lowest common denominator" in education, like they have in America, where "violence" happens on campus on a regular basis.
It comes to something when campus has to be closed down due to the pressure and "violence", from students. In America and in Washington, it was allowed to "spiral out of control", don't let that happen in the UK. As they have to have armed police on their campuses in America, and that increases the cost of education.
On Saturday, the 15th of July, I was divinely asked for "ART", and so "ART" it was on Saturday evening. While spreading the paint for the first painting, I felt the strong flow of trust come from within me, and so I have called this painting ART-TRUST, as re-confirmation of my trust in the divine and the journey.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--UABwqW9Sg
There is no urgency in the painting, the painting and it's projects are naturally born, flowing with creation in the direction that the art takes it. Only the divine can influence this art, only the divine can instruct and ask for time, for spreading of the paint. Just like only the brush can carry the paint to where it is to go, held in my right hand, touching where it must touch.
ART-TRUST
15th July, 2017.
The second painting, is a mandala, my mandala for the next phase of the journey of new beginnings for the Aramatheopist, and so it is you will see the lazuli colour that is very much part of my home life and spiritual journey of faithfulness.
The colourful blue healing energy that is transformative in more ways than one. It is for empowering the transformation of my home, it's redecoration, it's refurbishment, an uplifting space for this artist to create larger works.
These paintings are a manifestation of my ever flowering perennial essence of rebirthing of skills, talents, and abilities with the help of the divine source. As Jesus said, "Never forget who you are".
MY MANDALA
15th July, 2017
Both paintings have the same two colours to compliment each other. After finishing the second painting I saw two blue eyes in the painting, and I also saw a face of a bird. Art can manifest in your life in different ways, and when it does, just let it flow and paint with the greatest love in your heart.
You can create art in your garden, on a fence, in a hedge, even cover your inside walls. My walls of salvation are divinely blessed, I hope that yours are too.
