Astrology and health

I really wish I wouldn’t get told that a decision I make is wrong due to common beliefs that have not been deeply researched.

I recently went on a mostly fruit diet with no animal products because I want to heal my rosacea, which I discovered is linked to many autoimmune diseases, one of the most prevalent in my family is type 2 diabetes.

Upon doing research about skin problems and why they manifest, I came across information about the kidneys and poor filtration through the liver which leads to waste being taken out on the skin if your organs are not working together to remove the waste normally.

I did my research to understand what could work to finally heal my rosacea since it is so deeply misunderstood and judged. All my life I’ve been criticized because of it until I got older and stopped caring so much. But more than just aesthetic purposes, I want to heal my body from the inside out and it causes so much anger for me at times when I open up about these choices I’m making to better myself and I get told I’m not consuming enough protein or that I need to eat meat or eggs or whatever it may be that common media shares.

Our biology closely resembles frugivores, not carnivores. The only way we “safely” consume meat and animal products is by cooking, pasteurizing, or doing some sort of process to make it edible. That, to me, doesn’t make any sense. We get told to eat fruits and vegetables when we’re sick because they heal so wouldn’t it make sense to consume food we know to be healing most of the time?

How can we use it as medicine and then turn around and say ��oh you can’t eat too much fruit because of the sugar” as if simple fruit sugar is equivalent to processed refined sugar… also, all our cells need sugar. Our body runs on glucose… which is sugar. Literally everything we consume gets transformed into glucose. Insulin gets released into the bloodstream to help transport glucose to our organs so we have energy and can function. So even foods that are low in sugar get turned into glucose… which again, is sugar. Processed sugar, like any processed food, is bad for you. It is not the same as eating raw fruit - the food the Earth created for us to consume. (Is it really that surprising that the food we can naturally consume is the most healing food for us? It’s almost as if our biology, which resembles frugivores in nature, is made for the consumptions of fruits. Amazing.)

This whole idea that protein is everything was not emphasized until the last 1000 years or so. Protein was not emphasized as the most important source of sustenance for all time. Fruits and vegetables were. There are entire cultures that thrive off of fruits and vegetables and do not struggle with the same level of disease as we do.

It’s so annoying that veganism or any sort of diet with a strong focus on fruits and vegetables gets criticized so much. I’m not pushing my choices on anyone and I wish their choices didn’t get pushed on me, especially coming from people who are currently struggling with health issues and are trying multiple protocols that are not working. It doesn’t make sense to take advice from someone else who is trying to figure it out and is not succeeding yet I’m being criticized personally for taking advice from sources who have healed themselves and others.

No one will know my body better than me. I have tried to get assistance from doctors and dermatologists. None of them have helped. Some have even made things worse by giving me medications that suppressed my symptoms for a few weeks only for them to come back stronger and then I got prescribed a more intense medication with tons of side effects. If I cannot trust in myself and intuitively listen to my body, then I will never heal. My body is my own. My choices are my own. Feel free to judge them when I am not around but keep your negativity to yourself. I’ve only being doing this for two days and I feel so much better, my digestion is better, and my rosacea is not flaring up. That cannot be a coincidence. Please stop listening to mass media and do your own research to heal your body and mind.

During my recent strolls through online pseudoscience echo chambers, I've started noticing a pattern. Many people in these groups either already have or end up with some pretty serious ailments. I see cancer patients, people with heart problems, people with dermatology issues, etc. And it got me thinking "how in the world does someone end up this poorly when focusing so much on their health?" A lot of these people do in fact go see normal licensed doctors, so I was confused.

Until I noticed this pattern. It all makes sense now.

- ingesting random products recommended by Facebook echo chamber

- not being honest with their doctor about what they take

- taking random products again

- stopped taking prescribed medications

- dismissing doctor's medical advice (hoping their friend is smarter than them 🤞🏻)

- ingesting unneeded medication

- dismissing medical advice

- opting for advice from unqualified people online

- dismissed doctor's medical advice

So I've got a working theory now. I think it's safe to say that some of these people's distrust for doctors and Western medicine comes from their own stupidity and refusal to follow medical advice.

You can't blame the doctors or hospitals or even pharmaceutical companies for your poor health when you won't even do the bare minimum of what those things recommend for you to do!! How is anyone supposed to get to the bottom of what's causing your suffering when you won't even be honest about what substances you're ingesting on the daily!? How is anyone supposed to help you get better if you don't even get tested for what doctors think could be the problem!? At this point you only have yourself and your echo chambers to blame.

Help them, to help you!

Anyway, go see your doctor if you think there's an issue; get a second opinion if need be, BUT PLEASE listen to what the doctors tell you and not randoms on Facebook 💜💜

To the people who are trying to break the 'capitalistic nature of medicine' but still charge you $800 for an hour and a half (about $533/hour) long session with them I hope you know you're part of the problem. (It's not just medicine either. It's all the get rich quick people, all the 'its so easy to become a millionaire/entrepreneur/business owner/etc' people too.)

Because the realty is that those of us who need your services the most can't afford that. And since Big Pharma doesn't recognize your practice because they can't profit off of it I have to pay out of pocket.

I'm not saying you shouldn't be paid for your time and expertise. You should. But $800 for 90 minutes of what? How often? What if it doesn't work like everything else I've tried? That's half my monthly salary as a full time employee. They offer 15 minute phone consultations first, which is great! At $75 per 15 minutes. A rate of about $300/hour.

People who can afford those types of services at those prices are already doing it. *gestures to upper middle class and upper class* The people who need it the most can't.

I've been playing prescription roulette for over 20 years at this point. Finding someone who is approaching things from a different angle is the only option I haven't exhausted. And you wanna charge me, someone who is considered impoverished by class terms/value/salary/etc. here in the US, $800 for a 90 minute session.

I am so so so fucking sick of this "let me post this video on TikTok/Reels/etc about how I can help so many people and then let them click a link that tells them it costs literally hundreds of dollars".

You are praying on us just like Big Pharma and Big Corp and quite frankly the entire upper class does.

What will y'all do when we're all dead and can't carry your labor and fill your pockets? What then?

Biden’s alba - a great addition to any plant medicine tool belt! Not only are the flowers great for urinary antibiotic uses , but the leaves/stems make a great spinach replacement for a foraged diet. <3

Help?!

Pain management hasn't done a darn thing for me and my pain levels. I wish I had a holisitic specialist. I noticed that nature remedies help me so much more than this pharmacuetical disgusting crap. Anyone know someone they can refer me to that can work with someone on a limited income? 🙏

Where are all my beautiful black men and women. I want to follow more of my people 👀🤎

Naturally repairing tooth decay 🤔

Apparently, everything we know about light, optics, biology and evolution is just a lie and a big conspiracy to... *checks notes*... sell you glasses.

As expected, behind every single "alternative medicine" grifter is a product they want to sell you.

https://www.thedailybeast.com/anti-glasses-influencer-samantha-lotus-says-she-can-heal-your-eyesight-for-dollar11

“You may have been told that you need glasses, but that’s actually a lie.” So says Samantha Lotus, a self-described “holistic master coach” and Canadian online wellness influencer, who says she can teach you to see clearly again for only $11. Lotus is offering her tens of thousands of social media followers the chance to throw away their glasses and heal the “spiritual, emotional, mental and physical reasons” behind their bad eyesight, according to an Instagram post. Lotus says she teaches “holistic multidimensional healing” methods and has already healed her own eyesight, so that she no longer needs glasses, according to her social media. In a post on Friday, Lotus claimed she had 338 people signed up to take her online masterclass. But there’s a catch: “If you’re closed minded and want to stay a victim, this is NOT FOR YOU,” she writes.

Someone actually paid to attend, "so you don't have to." After over an hour of ramble, it pivoted into selling essential oils and other nonsense.
