the florida dept of environmental protection decided they're going to build pickeball courts and resort hotels into the state parks. meeting for comments is in five days. five days. they 100% know what they're doing and how evil it is. it's so evil i don't even know what i would say at the meeting. like you have environmental protection in your name. what do you think that means? developers have crawled into state office because of the fuckwit governor and i don't know what to do. same feeling i get when someone asks me to call my rep about an issue--he doesn't care, none of them care.

i better go to camp helen and grayton beach again and take more pics so i can remember what it looked like. because walton county is in a state of complete capture by developers and i have zero doubt this will go through.

Gut Health Diet: How to Balance Your Microbiome for Better Digestion

The goal of a diet for gut health is to support the microbiome, which is the diverse group of bacteria that lives in the digestive tract. It is crucial to eat a range of nutrient-rich foods that promote intestinal health in order to maintain this equilibrium. Consuming a lot of fibre, which comes from whole grains, fruits, and vegetables, feeds good bacteria and creates a microbial habitat that is conducive to health. Prebiotic-rich foods like bananas, onions, and garlic are especially good at promoting a healthy microbiome.

 

A part from prebiotics, include fermented foods in your diet can be quite beneficial for gut health maintenance. These foods have live beneficial bacteria in them that can support and preserve the gut flora's natural equilibrium. Frequent use of foods such as yoghurt, kefir, or fermented vegetables helps increase the beneficial microorganisms in the digestive tract. Combining these tactics with a diet low in processed foods and added sugars can help improve gut health and digestion.

Personal health hacks that have completely changed my life in the last 9 months.

Absolute number one is removing carbs from my diet. I had THE WORST crashes and lethargy every single day after my morning oat meal, after my carb heavy lunch, and carb heavy dinner. Despite being vegan my body lacked nutrients and calories from under-eating being plant-based and carb-overloading. 

Introducing grass-fed meat and high quality eggs into my diet. Red meat gets such bad press in the media, but personally it has given me energy, strength and I feel much better eating this in moderation. 

Little exercise each day. Not killing myself with a hardcore workout and then not being able to move for rest of the week (which I was doing previously). I now do a little each day. 1.5 - 2mile run most days, and daily stretches and weights at home. Nothing crazy, but a little goes a long way and I find it much easier to be consistent doing smaller bouts on my own schedule daily. 

Hormone health, ensuring I am keeping my hormones balanced. I make watermelon juice daily with 1.5 heaped tablespoons of flaxseed. Alongside that. I take omega 3, DIM, Selenium, Iodine, Vitamin D +K2, Evening primrose oil for womens health. I eat foods that support healthy hormones, broccoli, carrots, sunflower seeds and removed the foods that cause imbalances (carbs, sugars).

Removing all stress from my life. Including moving overseas, deleting social media and keeping my circle small but wholesome. 

Quit drinking alcohol. Initially I thought I would have the occasional drink but I truly have no desire anymore. My life is significantly better for not drinking. My body never responded well to booze. 

Sleeping properly for 7-9 hrs per night. Meditating for 1 hour before bed usually puts me in a completely zen mode for relaxation. That means my phone is switched off, I use a lavender pillow spray and light candles to set the mood for a goodnight sleep. 

Zeolite detox for heavy metals (currently in the process). I have Zeolith Med powder each day with water to flush out any toxins. 

Learning about gut microbiome, and probiotics..in the process of obtaining kefir grains to make my own batch. Making sauerkraut on weekends and introducing a wider variety of foods into my diet. 

These are completely personal and I can honestly say I feel better than ever. I wish I had done the above years ago, especially the carbs! I got a continuous glucose monitor of Amazon to see how my body was responding to carbs before I completely cut them off and I recommend doing this if you want to know more about how your body is reacting to glucose. 

*this all took time and effort, but once I removed the distractions, the meaningless socialising, the boozing, the scrolling I’ve had time to invest in myself + my health

I do think the funniest theory on why humans started kissing is definitely the germ swap theory. While romantic/sexual kissing is not universal, non-romantic kissing is well-established across history and cultures as a form of affection. One of the theories behind our kiss-kiss-fall in love dynamics is that it allows for microbe exchange and microbiome balancing [same link above]. They balancing the dang humors through a mwah.

really was just, "I love you. GERMS be upon yee"

hi bacteria enthusiast here. im going crazy about ur post.

clark probably has an Absolutely Fucked Up gi tract by kryptonian standards. the human microbiome is a constant four way tug-of-war between the immune system and mutualistic, opportunistic, and pathogenic bacteria. i can't decide if the kryptonian bacteria would be absolutely flourishing or if they would just be wiped out by clark's beefy immune system (which. can he make all the kryptonian amino acids? obvi he wouldn't be malnourished, because he gets all the nutrition he needs from the sun? but is he like. not able to make a kryptonian pigment, or an adaptive immune cell, or something?)

sometimes (speaking from personal experience but not trying to overshare) gi tract infections can have a restorative effect if things are out of balance. im imagining bruce having like slight lactose intolerance and then he starts hooking up with clark and one day during an alfred vacation he orders pizza and he's fine and he's like. ???? who did this to me

anyways thanks for this it's going to occupy my brain for the entirety of my 8 hr shift

It’s such a fun rabbit hole! There’s so many fun things you can have happen. Clark gets rid of Bruce’s lactose intolerance but maybe also some of his SAD too? Maybe he’s better at synthesizing vitamin D now suddenly? Maybe alcohol slowly stops working. Etc.

The 13 Best Foods For Healthy Skin

Your skin is not only the body's largest organ but also a reflection of your overall health. Maintaining healthy and radiant skin requires more than just external skincare products; it begins with the nutrients you provide your body from the inside. A well-balanced diet rich in essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants can do wonders for your skin. In this article, we'll explore the 13 best foods for achieving and maintaining healthy, glowing skin.

1. Salmon:

Salmon is a fatty fish that's high in omega-3 fatty acids. These healthy fats help keep your skin moisturized and supple, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Omega-3s also have anti-inflammatory properties that can soothe skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis.

2. Avocado:

Avocados are packed with healthy fats, vitamins E and C, and antioxidants. These nutrients help keep your skin hydrated, protect it from UV damage, and promote collagen production, which is essential for skin elasticity.

3. Sweet Potatoes:

Sweet potatoes are rich in beta-carotene, a powerful antioxidant that can give your skin a healthy glow by protecting it from sun damage and preventing premature aging.

4. Berries:

Berries like blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries are loaded with antioxidants, particularly vitamin C. Antioxidants help combat free radicals, reducing skin cell damage and promoting a more youthful appearance.

5. Walnuts:

Walnuts are an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin E, which help maintain the skin's moisture and protect it from oxidative stress.

6. Spinach:

Spinach is rich in vitamin A, which is essential for skin health. It helps repair skin tissues, prevent acne, and maintain a healthy complexion.

7. Green Tea:

Green tea contains polyphenols and antioxidants that protect the skin from UV radiation and reduce the risk of skin cancer. Drinking green tea regularly can also help combat inflammation and keep your skin looking fresh.

8. Tomatoes:

Tomatoes are a great source of lycopene, an antioxidant that can reduce the risk of sunburn and skin aging. It also promotes collagen production and skin elasticity.

9. Dark Chocolate:

High-quality dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher) is rich in antioxidants, specifically flavonols, which can improve skin texture, hydration, and blood flow, giving your skin a healthy glow.

10. Almonds:

Almonds are rich in vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that helps protect your skin from harmful UV rays and environmental damage.

11. Yogurt:

Yogurt is packed with probiotics, which can promote a healthy gut. A balanced gut microbiome can lead to clearer skin by reducing inflammation and preventing acne.

12. Carrots:

Carrots are another great source of beta-carotene, which can help reduce skin dryness and promote a more youthful appearance.

13. Oats:

Oats are a good source of complex carbohydrates and fiber. They can help stabilize blood sugar levels, reducing the risk of acne and promoting clear skin.

While these foods can be a valuable addition to your diet for healthier skin, remember that no single food can work miracles. A well-rounded diet that includes a variety of nutrient-rich foods, along with proper hydration, is essential for achieving and maintaining radiant skin. Additionally, don't forget to protect your skin from excessive sun exposure, get enough sleep, and maintain a consistent skincare routine for the best results. Healthy, glowing skin is the result of both internal and external care, so make these foods a part of your daily routine and watch your skin thrive.
