World's healthiest foods: pepper
Pepper is one of the healthiest species of vegetables in the world and it is also easy to cultivate.
It enriches every garden in which it is planted with a wide spectrum of varieties and colours varying from green, yellow and orange to red, violet and brown.
One of the reasons it's so popular is its taste, which has turned it into an ingredient of many raw and cooked dishes, as well as an irreplaceable spice.
Historical remains from Peru indicate peppers were consumed in Central and South America as many as 9600 years ago.
Columbus brought them to Europe in 1493, where they were quickly spread and cultivated.
There are about 50 varieties of peppers in the world today.
Apart from the delicious taste, they have special medical properties, which make them welcome on anybody's plate.
"Spice up" your health!
If you are concerned about your diet and are choosing quality foods, be sure to pay attention to the choice of spices.
Quality, origin, method of storage and age of spices will largely determine their properties and taste of your food.
Would you make a fruit salad using almost rotten fruits? Of course not.
Likewise, spices should be at their full aromatic potential to give their best.
Most non-organic, conventional spices go through "hell" before they reach store shelves.
They are exposed to toxic effects of various pesticides and herbicides in farming, as well as of chemical additives that are added during the storage stage in order to maintain their freshness.
In addition, spices are exposed to radiation, which is used as a method of sterilization.
It is therefore important to choose only spices that have a clearly highlighted eco certification on the package.
Powerful pharmaceutical industry caught red-handed, forced to pay compensations
In the past couple of years pharmaceutical companies have been forced to pay over 13 billion dollars in compensations to settle claims by U.S. Department of Justice regarding fraudulent marketing practices, including the promotion of medicines for uses not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Here are some of the most remarcable cases as compiled by the American non-profit organization ProPublica.
Eli Lilly (january 2009)
Eli Lilly paid 1,42 billion dollars to resolve a government investigation into the off-label marketing of the antipsychotic Zyprexa. Although this drug was approved only for certain psychotic disorder, Eli Lilly advertised it as a treatment for senile dementia.
The government also claimed that the company recruited primary care doctors to promote Zyprexa for non-approved uses.
Quantec - Therapy of the future
Lately there has been an increasing number of books that prove how the mind affects the matter.
Scientists prove to us that our thoughts have a far greater impact on our reality than we previously believed.
Based on these insights a variety of mental and self-help techniques have been developed (NLP neuro-linquistic programming, Theta healing, Ultra Mind System etc.).
The point is to replace negative thought patterns and limiting beliefs with positive thoughts and beliefs which will help us reach the desired goal.
The term computer biocommunication indicates the exchange of information between computers and living things.
Quantec (QUANtum TEChnology) is a system that uses diodes with white noise and establishes communication with the selected goals through consciousness, defines the causes of negative thinking and limiting beliefs and fixes them by mediating relevant information from its database.
Iridology - the study of the iris of the eye
A famous saying is that the eyes are the mirror of the soul.
Many actually believe that our eyes are not associated only with our soul, but also with our health.
Iridology (from the Greek iris - colored circle, and logia - science) translates as the science of the iris of the eye.
This alternative method deals with the diagnosis based on the study of the iris - part of the eye, which gives it its characteristic color: blue, brown or green.
Iridology considers that the eyes reflect any changes in our health.
On the basis of color, lines and blemishes in the iris of the eye, an iridologist can diagnose the patient's condition.
The iris is divided into 12 segments and seven concentric circles centered on the pupil of the eye.

Therapy with baking soda according to Tullio Simoncini and Jim Kelmun

How does it work: soda dramatically increases the alkalinity of the blood, which destroys Candida (which according to the theory of dr. Simonicini causes cancer).
Asafoetida improves digestion and protects against viruses
Asafoetida (Ferula assafoetida), also known as asafetida, hing, ingu and gigantic anise, is a plant native to Persia, where it was used as a spice.

Every living being - human, animal or plant - has its own aura. Auras are, in fact, physical electromagnetic energy fields which act as an extension of our physical bodies and only visible by a handful of people.
This field of light and colour looks like a battery, reflecting the status of our emotional and physical health.

However, in the first half of the twentieth century they completely ventured out of the mystical domain and become the subject of scientific study and research.
Thanks to special cameras that register electromagnetic field of living beings with high precision, it is possible to photograph auras.
