How to choose your meats!
I am amazed how high is the consumption of antibiotics in livestock in Cyprus comparing with other European and non European countries.
Out of 192 countries, in 2020 Cyprus was the 12th highest in antibiotic consumption, Greece was 58th whereas Sweden and Norway were the countries with the least consumption worldwide.
Also surprised to see Australia ranking 15 whereas New Zealand was 157. Is the consumption of antibiotic use a reflection of where Big Pharma is deeply rooted?
That said, I still do recommend everyone to eat mostly meat and animal foods but choose your meat wisely.

Crab sticks or crap sticks? This is an example of how a processed food looks like. The same applies to almost all other packaged foods such as cereals, and margarine. All those foods that don’t come in their natural form maybe inflammatory and unhealthy. The first step in improving your diet is to throw away all those foods.

Cold water therapy or cold immersion has become a trend in recent years. I have been practicing cold (below 15°C) showers according to Wim Hof method since last winter but this winter I have been doing cold immersions daily in the pool at the mountains starting from 15°C and currently at 8°C and the difference is dramatic. I feel energetic but calm, muscles recover faster after intense exercise and feel an improved general well-being. Other people have reported benefits such as lowered stress levels and improved mood as well as boosting the immune system. It can also help with weight loss as it boosts metabolism and promotes thermogenesis and brown fat, improves circulation and sleep and reduces inflammation. So many benefits at no cost.
Assuming there are no heart conditions (get your ok from your GP) start gradually in regards to the temperature and the duration and build up as you go.

Using Deliberate Cold Exposure for Health and Performance I describe mechanisms by which deliberate cold exposure can enhance mental health, physical health, and performance.
An open mind enables growth and development. If you feel stuck on your journey towards health, maybe it's time to redirect. Nothing is absolute, nothing is perfect, perhaps except of nothingness. Dig in deeper, have hope and patience, put in the work and enjoy the rewards.
The first thing I do when changing my clients' diets is to eliminate all sorts of breakfast cereals including oats and other falsely believed healthy alternatives, so that the consumption of fibre and carbohydrates are greatly reduced. Fibre is after all an unnecessary carbohydrate causing numerous problems in the human gut. The health benefits of reducing fibre and carbohydrates down to even zero are immediate especially where one suffers from gastrointestinal symptoms such as IBS, constipation, diahrroea, bloating and the like.
The following 22 minute video presentation by Dr Paul Mason, a low carb advocate, explains it all.

Did you know that your shampoo, artificial essential oils, fragrant candles, hairy spray, nail polish, deodorant, your favourite perfume, vinyl flooring, furniture upholstery, PVC and many other products containing phthalates can make you fat?
A Swedish study has found that certain phthalates were associated with disrupted levels of insulin production leading to diabetes and obesity in children.
Phthalates have been shown to be endocrine disruptors and cause damage to the kidneys, liver, lungs and reproductive systems in both men and women. They can be either ingested, absorbed via the skin or inhaled.
Choose natural products and products with "phthalate-free" label.

Associations of fats and carbohydrate intake with cardiovascular disease and mortality in 18 countries from five continents (PURE): a prospective cohort study
I hope this recent scientific study will convince a lot of people to never again buy products labeled "light" or 0% fat and make appropriate dietary changes. Basically what it says is that high sugar diets kill whereas fat is associated with fewer deaths, less cardiovascular disease and decreased incidence of strokes.
"High carbohydrate intake was associated with higher risk of total mortality, whereas total fat and individual types of fat were related to lower total mortality. Total fat and types of fat were not associated with cardiovascular disease, myocardial infarction, or cardiovascular disease mortality, whereas saturated fat had an inverse association with stroke. Global dietary guidelines should be reconsidered in light of these findings."

Human studies have shown that oral probiotic microbes can decrease anxiety, diminish perceptions of stress, and improve mental outlook.
For the more scientific inclined reader, the mechanisms examined of how fermented foods and probiotics play on mental health are listed below (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15617861):
•Direct protection of the intestinal barrier;
•Influence on local and systemic antioxidant status, reduction in lipid peroxidation;
•Direct, microbial-produced neurochemical production, for example, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA);
•Indirect influence on neurotransmitter or neuropeptide production;
•Prevention of stress-induced alterations to overall intestinal microbiota;
•Direct activation of neural pathways between gut and brain;
•Limitation of inflammatory cytokine production;
•Modulation of neurotrophic chemicals, including brain-derived neurotrophic factor;
•Limitation of carbohydrate malabsorption;
•Improvement of nutritional status, for example, omega-3 fatty acids, minerals, dietary phytochemicals;
•Limitation of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth;
•Reduction of amine or uremic toxin burden;
•Limitation of gastric or intestinal pathogens (for example, Helicobacter pylori);
•Analgesic properties.

Low-Carb Alcohol – the Best and the Worst Beers, Drinks, Etc. - Diet Doctor
When I advice a client or a friend to start on a moderate carb diet such as the GAPS or a strict low diet such as Keto, I almost always get the question: "Am I allowed to drink?" When I reply "yes you can" I always get a smile back. Check this site out to read how many carbs per alcoholic drink but zero carb drinks does not mean unlimited drinks.
dietdoctor.com Low-Carb Alcohol – the Best and the Worst Beers, Drinks, Etc. What are the best and the worst alcoholic drinks on a low-carb diet? First the obvious: Alcohol is not a weight-loss aid. The more alcohol you drink, the more weight loss may slow down, as the body burns the alcohol before anything else.…

Interesting article showing the link between heart disease and the gut.
academic.oup.com The heart and the gut seem to be two organs that do not have much in common. However, there is an obvious and clinically relevant impact of gut functions on the absorption of drugs and oral therapies on the one hand. On the other hand, the gut determines the quantity of nutrient uptake and plays a c...
