Many people pull this plant from their gardens thinking it is a nuisance
weed. But it actually has many health benefits and is popular in
several cuisines around the world.
Purslane (portulaca oleracea)
has fleshy succulent leaves and stems with yellow flowers and is very
resilient growing in many conditions from fertile garden soil to the
poorest arid areas and can take over a rocky driveway, hence its
reputation as being simple a weed. Its hardiness is demonstrated by the
fact that the seeds can stay viable, buried in soil for up to 40 years.
It has its origins in Persia and India but is now common throughout the
world and it is now believed that it can provide us with various health
benefits.
Studies have shown that it has a higher level of beneficial antioxidants than spinach (i)
and greater concentrations of omega-3 fatty acids than some fish oils
whilst having the additional advantage of being suitable for vegans and
vegetarians.
Antioxidants
are hugely beneficial to our health helping to reduce heart disease,
atherosclerosis , cancer, memory loss, and age-related vision loss as
well as boosting our immune systems (ii). Omega-3 fatty acids powerfully anti-inflammatory and
recognized as playing a role in the reduced risk of rheumatoid
arthritis, Alzeimer’s disease and dementia, asthma, heart disease and
depression (ii).
It is an extremely rich source of vitamin A, which again can protect
against certain types of cancer and improve eye health. A serving of
100g of Purslane can provide as much as 44% of the recommended daily
intake of vitamin A.
Purslane also contains vitamins C, and B-complex including riboflavin,
pyridoxine, and niacin, carotenoids, and several trace minerals
including iron, magnesium, and calcium.
Purslane starts to lose its nutritional qualities immediately after
harvesting. If you don’t have a big garden or if you fear that planting
purslane will take over your entire vegetable garden, try growing it
indoors as a microgreen. All you need is an empty container, some
potting soil, organic purslane seeds and a sunny window sill. Simply sow
the seeds, keep the soil moist (but avoid over-watering), and watch
your micro-purslane grow!
This Ex-CIA operative discovered that if everybody believes they are doing the right thing, and that includes the terrorists. Like they say, One man's freedom fighter is another man's terrorist.
She also discovered that if you wish to stop terrorism, all you need to do is LISTEN to your enemy.
Coz you're probably just fighting on the same side (the side of Right) and don't know it.
Some videos show us that we can do anything. This video shows us that we have to do something.
Money
is not power. It is only a tool to which we have given away our power.
People hold the true power, until they give it away. Those who wish to
control us do it by dividing us, by telling us that we need money to
eat, to survive, when all we need to survive, is to work together,
especially with the foundation of our society, the farmers.
Those who wish to
control us then control money, by setting our salaries, giving us just enough to live, but not enough to challenge them. Some of us have risen to become entrepreneurs, and we find out that everybody's a slave, even those who enslave others. Not intentionally, but just for the sake of trying to survive.
STOP GIVING YOUR POWER AWAY. COOPERATION OVER COMPETITION IS THE SOLUTION. LOVE IS THE SOLUTION.
Some videos show us that we can do anything. This video shows us that we have to do something. And that something is to LOVE, and work together, and be ONE.

This DIY Air Conditioner Has Already Cooled Down 25,000 Houses in Bangladesh
An amazing new and simple DIY air conditioner has swept across many
villages in Bangladesh. Because of the threat of flooding, a staggering
70% of the population lives in tin huts.
Most of these aren’t hooked up to electricity or water, so in the summer you can imagine how unbelievably hot they can get.
It gets so bad, a project called eco-cooler has formed because of the
impact. Their mission is to spread the knowledge of how to make these
cheap and electricity free methods to cool down the houses throughout
Bangladesh.
Originally starting from the advertising agency Grey Dhaka and
Grameen Intel Social Business Ltd, their collaboration has created
something beautiful. All you need are a few plastic bottles and a board
to make this simple cooler.
It works by cutting the bottles in half and mounting them on a grid
through bottleneck size holes. You then place the board over window with
the bottleneck facing inwards, and that is it! It’s really that simple.
That is all you need to actually cool a house, how crazy is that? As
the wind blows through the bottles, it creates cool air which gets
funneled through the openings and into the house. Eco-cooler says this
technique can actually decrease the temperature in the house but up to
5°C, depending on the weather conditions as well.
You
might think that the air blowing through the bottles would still be
hot, but try blowing on your hand. The air feels cooler than the air
around it, right? It is the same concept. The air get cooled when
focused through the bottleneck.
The other amazing aspect of this creation is that recycles plastic
bottles. The project has been put online for free with instructions on
how to make it yourself.
This amazing initiative has already reached nearly 25,000 households
and villages across Nilphamari, Daulatdia, Paturia, Modonhati, and
Khaleya.
After you know how to make it, it’s super simple to make a bunch and
help thousand who are suffering in the intense summer sun. It is
incredibly cheap, and if you can get the materials already recycled then
it is virtually free to create!
Everyone caring for an autistic child must see the video below.
Some vaccines kill, especially those that are untested. Robin Goffee was not told beforehand that her son was going to be given a vaccine that is untested. Her son is now alive but autistic. Many of the other children who were given the same batch of vaccines died on the same day they received the vaccine. They were reported to have died of "sudden infant death syndrome". The vaccine continued to be used even as the doctors knew children were dying because of it.
AUTISM = PARASITES
Robin Goffee to explain how she discovered that her son's autism was largely caused by parasites (worms) and their effect on her son's blood. She says that the vaccines (sudden multiple viruses shocking the body and causing prolonged mucus production in the intestinal tract) turn the intestines into an ideal breeding ground for worms.
According to On The Wasting Diseases of Infants and Children (a medical book by Eustace Smith) "The favorable opportunity (for parasites) manifests itself through mucous disease developing from an overburdened viral overload to the digestive system. One of the critical times is in babies under 6 months old. An overload of viruses at this time can lead to mucous disease, and subsequently, parasite infestation."
At 18 minutes 30 seconds into the video: "Among 138 persons who were insane patients at an asylum, when autopsies were performed post mortem, round worms of several species were always found."
"When my family realized and accepted the possibility that our son's autism may be caused by parasite infection, it was not long before we could see that we had our answer."
"It is understood that worms produce material that are toxic to their host. These toxins can change the chemistry of the blood."
"We began a protocol to remove the parasites, and soon found evidence of parasites and worms in his stool. We then saw a change in our son, including his countenance."
"The most universal symptom of parasite infection is the mere presence of eosinophils. (Our son's lab tests show that) indeed there is presence of eosinophils..."
"The laboratory guide said that the tests would include 22 variations of parasites, but in the end, they really only tested for 2 (the lab trying to save money by not running all the tests?). (The test results were negative for parasites.)"
"Despite the negative results and the false sense of security, we started an anti-parasitic protocol. (We found) more than 400 feet of worms that we got out of our son less than 6 months after these negative results."
"Autism equals parasites."
"These worms only started dying when we applied herbs that kill worms and parasites."
"Autism is a chronic state of toxic parasite infestation. The parasites are spewing ammonia and amphetamine chemicals. Our children are living in a drugged like state from parasites their entire lives, and it is labeled Autism."
"So fare I have gotten over 1000 feet of parasites out of him in 2 years."
She continues to say that when worms die, bacteria move in decompose the worm, and toxins flood into the patient's blood stream, causing suffering so massive that they hurt themselves physically just to take their attention from the pain inside them. Therefore, killing all the worms all at once will cause massive suffering and injury and possibly death to the child.
She then describes the techniques she uses to kill the parasites at a manageable rate, speaking of the herbs and other things she uses and the way she uses them.
