Instantaneous pain relief with walnuts
Gal blader and the intestine
This weekend I suffered again severe pain in my abdomen. I knew where it came from. 6 years ago my gal blader was removed and since then I had these horrible moments of painful intestinal disorder. My guts stopped, probably caused by some food or drink combination. For 4 days life would stop for me until the whole machinery would somehow switch itself on again.
Obviously I had started to watch my lifestyle and even quit drinking alcohol for 3 years! This no one ever expected me to do. My social drinking was nototious and probably the prime cause of the gal blader removal anyway. So you can imagine how fearful I was to the 4 days of pain to let that pleasure go. Hospital visites revealed no issues in the stomage or intestines.
This weekend it happened again. My guts were blocked and pain emerged. In our FRE2SH farm project we deal with walnuts as part of the food of the future. We have 3 full grown trees and try to figure out what to do with the yearly abundance of those trees.
I even had a pot full myself of last years harvest. As I could not eat a proper meal I decided to put a nut into my mouth. Instantly the pain in my belly soothened. I was very much surprised. The effect was instantaneous and I had not even started to chew or swallow!
When I did the pain disappeared completely and my intestines felt as if they were triggered in a way.
To me this miraculous effect could be explained through my own molecular lectures about life. But experiencing it directly was not only a relief but also a motivator to go ahead with FRE2SH as a self sufficient community for food and energy.
Aparently, according some subsequent internet research, the gal liquid has various functions, not just helping digest types of fat. It triggers the functioning of the intestines. My gal bladder was removed so any excess gal production would have be absorbed by small vessels. They could easily get blocked somehow causing the intestinal machinery to stop. The walnut got it all going again by being a gal flow stimulus.
Miraculous experience. If you have a food related medical experience please let me know. I will gladly blog about it and collect the stories for testing or awareness purposes in our FRE2SH activities.
The problem, the consequences and the solution
The problem:
The statement below is also referring to pollution, city convergence, life style, mobility, hunger, migrations, financial manipulations, power abuse, etc.
Awareness break through
The consequences
Need I say more? It is in our self interest to do something about it. Consequence driven investments damage economies and societies while proactive attention may give an innovative boost that keeps us busy for centuries. The Dutch have experience since we suffered our own water catastrophy in 1953, killing 1500 people. The implications now would be devastating, affecting 47% of the country. Time to act?
Solution:
The easiest way to “solve” this is to wait for the problem to pass by itself.
This is NOT the solution, despite being the easiest way to address the problem
This is NOT the solution either. Power abuse around money in fact stands solutions in the way.
The problem will indeed solve itself over time but scientists, economists and religious leaders now tend to agree that by that time there will be no human beings left to assume responsibility for our species.
10 years ago I stopped blaiming the world for unawareness and lack of sense of responsibility. For most individuals the issues are too abstract and mindblowing to picture one’s own responsibility. Surrounded by definitions of economic patterns and efficiency tools I could not find any definition for sustainable human progress that I could relate to myself. So I created one.
Just try to adhere in commitment to this and things will change, for you and your surroundings
The commitment to myself and my natural surroundings evolved into the STIR Foundation, the cooperative venture AiREAS and FRE2SH and the STIR Academy for 21st century society and entrepreneurship. It changed my life and many others that got involved in these ventures. We can now involve the world by providing guidance, tools, inspiration and innovation.
The STIR cycle for sustainable excellence and progress
Try it. It will change your lofe and that of your surroundings, always for the better.
