‘Jealousy of people is among the many things that come along with success and wealth. And it is by far the most potent threat as it could turn even a dear friend into a deadly enemy. And when that enemy continues to pose as a friend, enjoying proximity to you, (s)he becomes a Hitashatru.’

U Mahesh Prabhu

Most of us tend to kid ourselves about how healthy a life we are really living as we deviate so much and make so many exceptions from our ideals. Sometimes it helps to hear someone point it out – especially someone who doesn’t do these things!

And here’s what Markus Rothkranz does instead!  Markus describes the choices he makes for long term benefit beyond instant gratification.

When we talk about acid and alkali we need to be aware that different parts of the body need to be at different pHs. Cider vinegar contains acetic acid which is helpful to the stomach for digestion. It does have other benefits too.

We are used to hearing that we should eat five portions of fruit and vegetables but what if this is a vast underestimate of the quantity we need to reach our full potential? Put in the context of humans as forest dwellers which we once were as a species, we might wonder how much fruit and vegetable material we originally consumed and the significance of this. Fruit and vegetables contain flavonoids which, in volume, are powerful aromatase inhibitors, in other words, they modulate our hormones in a beneficial way.

The research of primatologist Katherine Milton on the dietary ecology of primates, human ancestors and modern humans shows how much lower in important plant compounds our diet is now compared with ancestral diets and those of other primates. Studies by her on primate nutrition suggest we have lost more

than 95% of the complex plant chemicals and nutrients that fueled our development as human beings. If primates in the wild need these nutrients, does it not make sense that humans, with their highly complex neural systems, need them at least as much?

You can read more about Katherine Milton’s research in her papers on the subject.

“The human brain, over a period of perhaps a million years, expanded at an increasingly rapid rate then, some 200,000 years ago, this expansion suddenly stopped. There is, to date, no plausible scientific explanation for either of these linked events.

Religious and mythic traditions of paradise inform us that we once lived in a benign state of perpetual wonder and joy but from this we regressed. The reasons for this are obscure. Do these apparently unrelated perspectives have something in common?”

A recent article by Tony Wright likens the situation to that of an aborted fetus,

Again mythology tells the same story in a different way. The Hypostasis of the Archons states that

“A veil exists between the world above [Pleroma], and the realms that are below [Kenoma]; and shadow (haibe) came into being beneath the veil. Some of the shadow became matter, and was projected apart. And what Sophia created became a product in the matter, like an aborted fetus (houhai).”

One of the healing constituents Chaga supplies is melanin. This got me thinking. People living in northerly latitudes traditionally had paler skin and less melanin. This reinforces the notion of our archaic symbiotic chemical connection with the forest. The supply of melanin can actually come from the forest itself. I started an experimental journey with raw and wild foods many years ago and a significant turning point for me was when I accepted the significance of living in a northerly latitude and that I would need to devise a raw food diet that was substantially different to that which could be eaten in a tropical or Mediterranean climate. Recently I’ve been considering how I might similarly adjust the use of my imagination and tune into those northern forests. Shilajit, Chaga, and Rhodiola are all daily blessings that I have welcomed into my life that lift mood and sustain health. I’ve been diffusing Siberian fir, black spruce, cedar and other wood oils to create an ambience I feel at home with.

More facts to know about Chaga:

• The best Chaga products are ‘dual-extracted i.e.e the active constituents are extracted using both alcohol and water in order to obtain them all.
• Wild Chaga is far more powerful in its healing properties than cultivated Chaga
• Chaga has been used as an ancient folk remedy in Eastern Europe for thousands of years to treat a variety of illnesses and is traditionally consumed as a tea to promote health and well-being.
• It was made famous in Alexander Solzhenitsyn’s novel “The Cancer Ward”, where he claimed Chaga had potential as a cancer treatment.
• Chaga mushrooms are believed to be one of the richest sources of antioxidants found in nature, and the ORAC scale reveals that they contain even higher antioxidant levels than blueberries.
• .Chaga mushrooms are also rich in polysaccharides, enzymes, melanin, trace minerals and vitamins B and D.
