Health Tips
Could hot cocoa be the next “wonder drug” for high blood pressure? Harvard researchers praise stunningly simple discovery!
According to recent estimates, nearly 1 in 3 American adults has high blood pressure. But for the Kuna Indians living on a group of islands off the Caribbean coast of Panama, hypertension doesn't even exist. In fact, after age 60, the average blood pressure for Kuna Indian is a perfect 110/70.
Is it because they eat less salt? No. Kuna Indians eat as much, if not more salt, than people in the US. Is it due to their genes? No. Kuna Indians who move away from the islands are just as likely to suffer from high blood pressure as anyone else! So what makes these folks practically “immune” to hypertension—and lets them enjoy much lower death rates from heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, and cancer?
Harvard researchers were stunned to discover it's because they drink about 5 cups of cocoa each day. That's right, cocoa! Studies show the flavonols in cocoa stimulate the body's production of nitric oxide—boosting blood flow to your heart, brain, and other organs. In fact, one study found cocoa thins your blood just as well as low-dose aspirin!
But that's not all. A Harvard Medical School professor claims cocoa can also treat blocked arteries, congestive heart failure, stroke, dementia, even impotence! Source: Daily Health News.
Legislation That We Need to be Concerned About
There is a proposed legislation in the UK and Europe (to become law on 1 April 2011) and the USA to make health and dietary supplements such as vitamins and minerals, as well as natural herbs, ayurvedic and other alternative medicines, illegal. It has already become law in Australia.
Even though the Vibrionics remedies don’t contain any physical substance, we feel that our healers may want to express their horror and disapproval at the draconian measures of the proposed legislation to limit the freedom of people. Many natural health clinics, health shops and businesses will be closed down. This would also prevent the ability of people to keep healthy by using such products that have proven their efficacy and non-toxicity over the years, as against the undesirable side effects of most allopathic drugs.
As this legislation could spread all over the world, we feel that our practitioners have a right to know about what is happening so they can take appropriate action.
For example, practitioners in the UK could sign this petition before it becomes law:

There is a highly credible video “Joining Hands in Health” that gives the background to this new proposed legislation:

The video is narrated by Dame Judi Dench and features significant figures such as congressmen and senior officials within the Food and Drug Administration of USA. It relates to global organisations such as the World Health Organisation and the World Trade Organisation, unelected bodies with global power. Become informed and let your voice be heard.
Genetically Modified Foods
A second extremely serious issue is that of genetically modified foods, called GM or GMO. To protect the health of our family and patients, this issue needs our attention and support.
Divinity, as expressed in Mother Nature, shows Her concern and love for humanity by providing us with many herbs and plants grown in her earth and used in healing. Many have called our connection to the earth and with the environment, the ‘Web of Life’. Now science and those who use science in business for big profits are not only making money by creating toxic drugs to treat people’s illnesses, and by trying to stop people from using dietary supplements and herbs, they have also modified the genetic makeup of plant seeds of hundreds of grains, fruits and vegetables which people and animals eat.
Consuming genetically modified food will have a wide-ranging negative impact on our health and on the health of generations to come. Healers are strongly encouraged to research and investigate the dangers of genetically modified foods and then speak out. All of us throughout the world can help by informing our friends and neighbours of the health dangers. Awareness is power, while ignorance is potentially dangerous. After all, what could be more important than our health and wellbeing and that of our families and brothers and sisters of the world?
