Water is one of the most important resources for all life. Without it, we don’t exist. If a once-living being loses all water, it is dead, biologically speaking at least it is in a state of decomposition. Water quality for the living is #1 for the home, so make sure to get the best water filter for you and your loved ones!

The U.S. and many other centrally distributed, large city water plants around the world, have been tested to show some alarming substances. As the word of this and the knowledge about city water contamination spreads, people become more and more interested in the very important endeavor of finding a way to clean that up.

I want to clean it up for myself too and convey the message to loved ones about how important the water we consume is, which includes a few recommended home water solutions.

The most recent article growth is rooted in the AquaTrue Countertop Water Purification Station. Well, that and..

Water is #1

Just like with the Nutritional Diversity Diet, there is a sourcing issue, and if we can get a great source there is no need for costly devices, many times great sources come by delivery in large 5-gallon plastic containers. We just hope no chemicals from the plastics are released as they get hot in the transport trucks.

Water in U.S. homes and homes around the world has turned out to be at many times contaminated, with serious contaminants such as heavy metals,  microfiber

plastics, harsh chemicals, even pharmaceuticals, and caustic sediment matter.

The number one thing to health is water, and there must be some things residents can do to clean it up for themselves and for their loved ones.

“Built into my world of convenience, I stand for the city water service to put a high amount of chlorine in the water for sanitary purposes which then goes into and all over my body each day.

I have to get to work and do some meaningless task, and I don’t have time to read this piece on water. I need to get ready and jump in my shower that kills my skin each day, and I go on day in and day out ignoring the fact that I drink chemicals I can smell coming from the top of my glass.

Could the chemicals themselves have something to do with the lackadaisical manner in which I let myself consume poisons both from my tap and my local grocer?”

It may seem like a far-fetched question, or an over-exaggeration of a simple sanitary function until Pharmaceutical substances were found in tests done by the United States Environmental Protection Agency that revealed in all 50 samples of the study, conducted across each of the 50 states existed positive results for several drugs.

Most of the medications discovered there lower blood pressure, except for Carbamazepine which is used to treat schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and epilepsy.

It is arguable whether high blood pressure is indicative of health risk, everyone who exercises maintains a high-pressure accepting system because of the intensely high blood pressure they experience during their times of exercise. It is also arguable that lowering blood pressure with pharmaceuticals is much like sedating people, which technically one could consider it to do.

For the number #1 resource of my family; I would like to improve the water quality in my life and in the lives of those I love. Let’s check out the top ten best water filters.

WATER FILTER RANKINGS

In process now!!!! New Results this week!

WATER FILTER BENEFITS

Clean water.  No toxicity and bleach.

WATER FILTER SIDE EFFECTS

A little work and investment.

There have been cases where bacteria build-in filters. In a clean system, with no outside contamination, this could be a good thing. [x]

Toxic algae growth had “tap water banned” this past 2017 in Toledo Ohio. [NYT]

WATER FILTER EXPERIENCE

You may hear terms “reverse osmosis, multi-staged,” and things like “xxPSI, “xPVC,” but don’t worry getting someone to help you with this stuff should be easy, thanks to our world of convenience where most people don’t do anything for themselves, most fellas, who are really poor will know their way around these terms and need $20 to help fit you out with something. You know he helps you, you help him. There we go…. now we are moving….

For drinking, it is recommended as the best water filter, that the gravity fed, counter-top type be used. They are a little more in price as the other option of an in-line filter but historically they produce the cleanest filtered drinking water when it comes to dealing with the city supply as the water source. I myself use both, the inline and the gravity, why not. In fact, I also use Ozone water treatment on about 35-65% of the water I drink.

The field installs the best water filter system inline style, traditionally is not that complicated and usually a lot cheaper to purchase or create.

A series of sealed tanks can be set up one with rock, one with sand, one with charcoal even, on to the final holding tank where water draws into the final delivery system. Sometimes before the tap will put a few string filters which usually do good to pick up the micro sediment stuff if at all passes, whereas you can inspect these easily and know exactly what is coming through the main filtration set up.  If your system is spring water, or roof collected, a little bit of the sediment may even be good for you.

Whatever which way, it is time to stop ingesting the chemicals primarily chlorine and fluoride that seem to be present in most city water supplies. I would like to stop showering with them too.

There has been one product that has stood above the rest in the removal of the chemicals and that is the gravity-fed, Big Berkey Water Purification countertop system with fluoride filter add-on. Next in this counter-top gravity line of hot stuff I recommend is the Nikken PiWater system. I work with both of these systems, and the primary differences are Nikken’s attempt to imitate a prime water structure using handpicked elements and information from around the world in a plastic case that allows light to enter, whereas the Big Berkey is stainless steel in construction, and is the United States’ most popular solution. Depending on what divine water information you may be looking at, in wanting to work on your water more you can juggle the two or do like me and get one for home, and one for office.

Also cheaply done, is a multi-stage inline system, that filters water for the entire home, water going into toilets, showers, air coolers, will all be cleaner with one of these. I say for around $250-$850 installed go ahead and hook the house or apartment up with one. Then there is the under-the-sink inline system, which works for a few taps that people want to get cleaner water from without waiting for it to cycle through the countertop gravity filters. Some companies make a nice shower filter that installs right at the shower line, stays there in line and filters water from the shower.

Water Ionizer is what many medical patients prefer and using this device which is rather expensive the user can make both more acidic and more alkaline water adjustable to their preference and based on their supply. There is a lot of arguing about this but ionic charges likely do play some part.

Then, of course, the frontier way to know your good is to boil the water. Some say distilled is the way to do it, that is all a whole other conversation, very deeply described in the complete ND Diet text. I have seen some permaculturists throw a rock or two or a few into the pot while cooking water, believing that it helps re-mineralize it, especially when rain collects.

Spring mear a city or industry is also likely contaminated I know arsenic was present in underground desert aquifers where I am from, there have been brow-raising radiation tests there also. In a place where much of the National Weapons developments and tests are made to include the first nuclear bomb building, where the dream team of scientists operated, I guess this should not be so shocking.

All of these home water solutions are better than nothing, with your city water supply. Ultimately another source would be better here companies have started selling the large 5-gallon waters harvested from spring sites for $5.oo, and many people pay that, it is good business. The city water supply is the one that most needs home water treatment. Certain U.S. city water taps have been found from toxic to flammable and I can only imagine what the effects must be like sitting down here in pretty Panama, where I still have to go through the motions to get good clean water in my cup. Anything centrally distributed like this is inherently open to being poisoned and hurting a lot of people.

Certain individuals myself included notice, and believe in the science class idea that chemical separation and evaporation of a lesser substance will take place in an open container. Refrigeration, cold, or heat may play their part if they exist but over time in any condition, the lesser substance should move to the top, and be the first to evaporate.

We used to fill glass bottles with water and place them in the sun for a bit, then move them to the fridge hoping that this process would be quickened. Sun does clean the water. After a day of hard sun here in Bocas del Toro, Panama, the nice gulf outside our study center

Along the way, I met a man who explained to me that he would put a lemon, a lime, a leaf of mint, and a quartz crystal into a glass picture and place in the sun. He said with honesty that he found it to be more fulfilling water. Low and behold, I found a ton of research to support this idea. There is even internal UV light featuring products advertised, in the water purification market.

Distillation is a heavily debated process regarding drinking water, but it is pure water technically. Andrew Norton Webber, says distilled water has helped him retain several youthful qualities and achieve health from an episode of sickness, and many others agree. Certain schools of thought caution that the mineral-less water may help remove toxins, but help remove from the body some vital elements also. Rainwater also gets the mineral leaching criticism, and over time drinking from a rainwater tank, and not entering the sea, one could start to feel this maybe, although it could be something else.

In my humble experience, my best water days were some from mountain spring, some from rain collection, some distilled and all filtered to some degree, and many servings of water treated with many different treatments, such as adding a few orange slices.

Most water recommends in our mainstream education recommend far too little water consumption, while our military training is more correct, and that water up, never have yellow coming out.

Nutritional Diversity, key principles are my guiding light in this water respect also, and that is; diversity of the best sources and structures available is best for optimal human performance.

A Deeper Look Into Water: Intro to Water Physics & Metaphysics

Somewhere in this crazy complex journey (I fail as of now to bang out on the keys in a complete story) of mine, I found the work of Dr. Masaru Emoto, who photographed flash-frozen water crystal structures, and spawned the practice of thanking, playing music for and praying to water. Thank your water. I thank you. If you look at this research you will too. If you think about this long and hard, realizing that we ourselves are three-fourths water, and the plant’s and living essences around us all have one thing in common and that is water; you too will see from the good doctor’s very recent research, that an attitude of gratitude will overcome most of the issue.

While Maseru’s critiques are plenty-full, anyone who has been around the snow has seen these shapes before, even if their skepticism is out of balance with trying to hear about Mr. Emoto’s hippy ideas. Just listen to nature, ask God, and try it out see if it helps you to feel differently.

Mr. Emoto offers a highly duplicated on Youtube way to find the same type of results using some damp rice in three different jars treating one harshly and writing the word hate on the glass with a Sharpie marker, the next in a different area of your space write love, and treat it each morning with a hug and a kiss, the third doesn’t write anything, don’t pay it any mind, ever. This particular experiment reveals each time reflectively a terrible moldy cancer on the ignored, and slight moldy cancer on the hated and the best condition on the loved. Obviously make sure all the rice is the same, and clean and the jars are clean..

WATER FILTER DISCUSSION

Here we discuss the best water supply and the best water filter units and what matters to the best water filter consumers.

Too many harmful chemicals have been found to exist in, and likely do exist right now in water that you drink and shower with every day. Any damage caused by this stuff is going to need to be repaired and that energy is going to come off your game-time peak performance.

Chemical-free was the number one member group survey benefit from these filters, chemical-free water was also the number one desired benefit from ND information.

Performance and health upgrade number one – the best water filter that, takes out chemicals, lead, and plastic microfibers.

Lead and pharmaceuticals have no place in our bodies, and they are something to deal with physiologically, neurologically, and spiritually. To have the organic experience we were destined to have we must clean up the toxic water that dulls and detracts from our lives.

This is the starting place for upgrading health in family life, and we wanted to make sure to get products ranked families can afford. The rankings did conclude with a full spectrum of price ranges.

Pure water is priceless.

WATER FILTER FAQ

Q. Does it make sense to use the two best water filter systems?

A. Definitely. I use my own sand filters out in the line before I receive it into the house where I have the I Spring 6 Stage and then a couple of different countertop devices. Water diversity is best. I saw a diverse set of treatments is also smart. We do a rock soup, ozone, distilled, and a “life water” process too.

Q. What is the best way to filter tap water?

A. The best singular way is debatable but we can be sure a diversity of great water sources is best. Distilled, carbon-filtered, or reverse osmosis are the most popular ways people purify or filter tap water. UV light boxes and O3gas treatments are other ways.

This article has covered both reverse osmosis and carbon filtered. There are links below in ‘related material’ for other purification methods.

Q.  Do the best water filter systems always work?

A.  No. If they are not cleaned that becomes more of a danger than a help. Clean and care for gear. Only have the gear you need. Drink water diversity.

WATER FILTER RECAP

City water is the worst. There are things we can do to clean it up for our loved ones and that is what we should do.

Just give me the best water filter, please.

As the sport of Ultimate Fighting, otherwise known as Mixed Martial Arts or MMA for short, grows in popularity, many sports enthusiasts have described the fighters as ultimate athletes. A sport where players take more risks and get put to more demanding tests than other athletes in other sports. This kind of ultimate performance should have a more robust diet then too. Let’s check out what could be some of the best MMA diet information ever constructed.

Just so happens we can tell you the ultimate diet, that no one quite has sited in yet. Also, the ultimate fitness & nutrition coaching that you need.

Here is a fun one for you, we asked the A.I. to build us the ultimate diet for a UFC fighter.

Here is what it gave us:

Designing a diet plan for a UFC fighter requires careful consideration of their training intensity, weight class goals, and individual needs. Here’s a sample diet plan that can serve as a starting point. However, it’s important for the fighter to consult with a sports nutritionist or dietitian to tailor the plan to their specific requirements.

Note: This sample diet plan assumes the fighter is in a training camp and has a moderate to high training volume.

Meal 1 – Breakfast:

• Oatmeal with mixed berries, nuts, and a scoop of protein powder.
• Whole-grain toast with avocado.
• Scrambled eggs with spinach and bell peppers.
• Freshly squeezed orange juice or water.

Meal 2 – Mid-Morning Snack:

• Greek yogurt with honey and sliced bananas.
• Handful of almonds or mixed nuts.

Meal 3 – Lunch:

• Grilled chicken breast or lean turkey.
• Quinoa or brown rice.
• Steamed vegetables (broccoli, carrots, asparagus).
• Side salad with mixed greens and olive oil vinaigrette.

Meal 4 – Afternoon Snack:

• Rice cakes with almond butter.
• Carrot and celery sticks with hummus.

Meal 5 – Pre-Training:

• Grilled fish (salmon, tuna) or lean beef.
• Sweet potatoes or whole-grain pasta.
• Steamed or grilled mixed vegetables.
• A small serving of fruit (apple, pear).

Meal 6 – Post-Training:

• Whey protein shake with water.
• Banana or other easily digestible carbohydrate source.

Meal 7 – Dinner:

• Lean protein source (chicken, turkey, fish) or plant-based protein.
• Quinoa or brown rice.
• Steamed or sautéed vegetables.
• Mixed salad with a variety of colorful veggies.

Meal 8 – Evening Snack:

• Cottage cheese with mixed berries.
• Herbal tea or water.

Important Nutritional Considerations:

• Hydration: Stay hydrated throughout the day by drinking water regularly.
• Protein: Ensure sufficient protein intake to support muscle recovery and growth.
• Carbohydrates: Include complex carbohydrates to fuel training sessions and replenish glycogen stores.
• Fats: Incorporate healthy fats from sources like avocados, nuts, seeds, and olive oil.
• Vitamins and Minerals: Eat a variety of colorful fruits and vegetables for essential vitamins and minerals.
• Timing: Consume a balanced meal containing protein and carbohydrates before and after training.
• Weight Management: If cutting weight for a specific class, consult with a nutritionist to create a safe and effective weight-cutting strategy.

Remember, every fighter’s body is different, so it’s crucial to adjust the plan based on individual preferences, training intensity, and dietary requirements. Regular monitoring and adjustments, preferably with the guidance of a professional, are essential for optimal performance and health.

The extreme performance and extreme nutritional need make it very interesting for a nutritional botanist concerned with athletics such as myself to look at these fighters’ diets. Over the course of this year, I have taken an in-depth look at two of the ‘ultimate, MMA guys,’ their diets, and their hired nutritionists. I have also discussed how the Nutritional Diversity diet can help establish a baseline guarantee of nutritional coverage for any athlete and any fighter.

I can talk about MMA cause I have done it my whole life, on the pavement too many times for free!  I am born and raised in Albuquerque – to the bone -, and I am personally coming out of the most victorious MMA camp in the world.

I can talk about diet cause I work currently in Panama on the cutting edge diet today in the world.

Remember that without enough water, your performance, your results, and your technique will not improve!

Us real people we like to hear from people who do it and not just say it. I prefer someone who says nothing and does their work dependably over all other types. Speaking of too much gab – let’s get to it.

Finding the Ultimate MMA Diet is not so easy…

What is the best MMA diet to have behind you to support killer MMA training? What would it take diet-wise to step training to a new level?

MMA fighters suffer serious injuries regularly, and they need to have all the bases covered. If what they say about your nutrition being the largest part of your success and performance is true, what exact nutrition plan will I employ?

The fight is won or lost far away from witnesses – behind the lines, in the gym, and out there on the road, long before I dance under those lights. -Muhhamed Ali

Whether or not you are an MMA fan, you have to admit a Mixed Martial Arts Fighter is a tested athlete who must be dexterous, and well rounded on stamina and strength, well engaged in mindful focus, that must be fast and able to switch gears and rhythms on the flash.

His or her joints and bones need lots of support both nutritionally and conditionally to take that kind of beating they take in the ring or octagon.

A fighters mind needs to be firing on all pins to see and defend the diverse set of attacks that could be coming at them.

In one quick video for MMA TV in November of 2015, John sat down to eat a “5x, in 2 weeks meal” of, oatmeal, whole-grain toast, potatoes, blueberries, an omelet, and 2 grilled chicken breasts from the Albuquerque restaurant Flying Star. Interesting to me that three starch and grain foods are eaten together in this portion of his MMA diet.

I don’t know how credible a source or how current the information is above but John Jones told USA Today in April 2016 that he now adheres to the tutelage of nutritionist Louis Giordano, in a highly intelligent well-informed system, a carbohydrate-based diet, where even cake can be eaten, if it is in the correct balance with other foods. He mentions in the article that he realized how wrong he had been eating, and made lots of corrections.

I myself have lost respect, and become disappointed in the UFC, and the U.S. sports commissions being that the king in the game was obviously set up, and a deserved career and deserving fans are all robbed such incredible possibilities. I know being a guy from Jackson’s camp, the likely hood of him knowingly being involved with illegal enhancement substances is so very close to, if not is; no chance.

Good to see Jones back in the cage now, putting down his opponents like the tune never skipped a beat.

Lou Giordano, also known as ‘Loutrition,’ who has worked with several Legendary Fighters such as Dan Henderson, BJ Penn, and Andrei Arlovski, is a major proponent against the dreaded ‘weight cut,’ where a fighter will dehydrate himself to lose ten pounds(or more), and then eat like a goat to try to come back to 100% for the fight. Johnny Hendrix fell places from the title shot he could almost smell, taken out before entering the ring ever, to the hospital from his weight cut, and then hired Giordano also.

Titan FC Fighter Jose Torres, another client of Giordano’s tells Cage Pages that he photographs each meal, and sends notes on his weight and workout, how he felt and other data to the nutrition guru, who would work out his next day that night, keeping a daily balance managed so the fighter stays on point. The guru seems to be a fan of 5 to 6 meals a day.

Adam Krzymowski Pencil

GSP & Dr. Berardi

George Saint Pierre or GSP for short is another one who is arguably the pound-for-pound greatest of all time. The French-speaking Quebecer, pioneered his MMA career from loved developed from martial arts movies, in a place where not many martial arts were available in the school setting.

GSP holds a mixed martial arts record of 26 wins with 8 knockouts, and 6 submissions, two losses and is the former Welterweight and Middleweight Champion of the UFC.

In 2009 just after defending his title against BJ Penn, GSP hired Dr. John Berardi who is the creator of the Surge recovery product, and the Precision Nutrition team, a fitness software creator and coaching program, which caters heavily to nutritionists and coaches. Dr. Berardi found and recruited two chefs in the area to the team, preparing stuff that looks like this:

– 1 lower carb anytime meal to be eaten whenever you like: 650 calories – 60g protein, 40g carbs, 30g fat
– 1 lower carb anytime meal o be eaten whenever you like: 650 calories – 60g protein, 40g carbs, 30g fat
– 1 high-carb post-exercise meal to be eaten immediately after training (a recipe that can be eaten cold):  700 calories – 60g protein, 100g carbs, 10g fat

“Georges’ baseline menu is about 3200-3500kcal per day, with around 250 grams of protein, 350 grams of carbs, and 100 grams of fat. Post-workout meals are higher in protein and carbs, while being lower in fat, and eaten right after workouts. Evening meals are higher in protein and fat while being low in carbs.”

In the Case of GSP research was easy, and these guys have been very forthcoming with their diet supplements planning. Traditional meal ingredients that are organic are employed to achieve the baseline goals, and are supplemented by 2 Shakes (per day): 1 shake at a time, between meals, mixed with almond milk or water 4 fish oil capsules 1 scoop milk-based protein powder 1 scoop greens supplement 1 cup frozen mixed berries; (282 calories – 18g protein, 25g carbs, 12g fa)t. Before training: ½ protein bar Immediately after training: 1 Surge Recovery drink (330 calories – 25g protein, 44g carbs, 1g fa)t. Followed by a post-workout meal 1 hour later.

Brands are Muscle Milk protein powder from CytoSport, Greens+ from Genuine Health, Flameout fish oil capsules from Biotest. Finbar from Biotest: 125 calories – 7g protein, 20g carbs, 4g fat, Surge Workout Fuel from Biotest: 85 calories – 8g protein, 21g carbs, 0 fat

Approximate Total Baseline Intake: 3104 calories – 256g protein (30%), 315 carbs (40%), 99g fat (30%), and GSP is my size (170-200) so this was cool to see.

Stay tuned for a part two and three, of looking for the best MMA diets.

Just for Fun

We do Ju Jitsu so are figuring out the supportive wonder foods…Just for fun

Not knock to Loutrition, or this diet, if this is even still or ever was it (*references below_)..  I am telling ya too that I write this with your eyes and mind in the forefront, I would design a much different thing in person, but many of the names of ingredients are unknown outside of very technical references. In other words I am writing a simple “just for fun,” and for an initial abstract formulation of a serious diet plan down the road for this.

See more about the Panama study where we actually do this here.

(contains meat*)

Breakfast: 2.5 fl. oz low-fat, plain kefir 0.5 oz (medium) banana 1/2 tbsp peanut butter 1.5 oz oatmeal.

I allways wonder if athletes tell it all in interviews

. I am sure they don’t share their best secrets. This is what I might think up for a super diet EXAMPLE and slowly try to refine:

Notes on future study

It’s a sweet daydream of mine, behind the shovel when my mind wanders off, with this “food art,” to work with some pro martial artists, and I wholeheartedly believe any athlete who comes here to the tropics and fully incorporates the complete findings of this biodiverse food study, is bound to have similar results as the 300+ we have observed over the last few years.

The Ultimate MMA Fighters’ & Diet Arts

Thinking in a no-limits fashion, with no vilification of any foods, but with the goal of having a calculated and well-budgeted ingredients list, organized by time of the meal, training sessions, and rest sessions; my thoughts on the diet, and the information and diet plans I am able to find, feel too loose. I find food combinations that I know to fight with each other in my MMA diet research, I find coffee mentioned frequently, I find a lot of repeat information, and seldom anything new. I feel there is too much comfort in modern society with the diet that we called traditional and balanced.

I do feel that diet plans are based on exercise and rest plans, which for an athlete comes first, then the diet should be made up accordingly. Plus with my nutritional diversity knowledge and experience, I wonder how many of these fighters and nutritionists are really getting to know their foods, or are their minds and bodies are constrained to the textbooks, and other modern recommendations that are mostly all inadequate or non-optimal for actual use and competitive application. Some people I am sure would say I am over-complicating things, and the modern balanced diet, and simply eating clean is all you need to focus on. I would say there is a lot that guy does not know.

Clearly today in the modern age we know that humans can live off of absolute garbage almost. We are amazing creatures. That kind of eating takes its toll and has a price, and eating the right way, if we know what that is complete, would in this same completeness produce benefits.

“To eat is a necessity, but to eat intelligently is an art.”

― François de La Rochefoucauld

The art of eating, as a large puzzle piece to the art of fighting, has new horizons in this age of worldwide market availability.

We live in the perfect age to figure it all out. Now is the time! The ultimate mixed martial arts diet intelligence has not yet been fully painted.

I would not begin to think I could just draw it up in this article, but I do want to do is inspire and motivate, the continual formulation of it. Also, we are trying to grow a qualified team, if you have more interest in working with on this diet, enroll in a certification track.

I am working with a good team of guys here on the biodiverse food study in Panama, and we are concentrated heavily on diet study and what works best.

To give some basic questions for MMA fighters to chime in on:

1. How many times a day do you eat and how far apart are those increments?
2. How do you measure your calculated meal increments?
3. Can you list what you may eat in a weak as far as a sum total foods, to include the separate species of, or sources of foods?
4. Are you familiar with the chemical glyphosate? (honestly, before you looked it up, did you know?)
5. Are you running on carbohydrates or fats?
6. How many hours per day do you train heavily? Maybe even describe the workout.
7. What bone breaks have you experienced? Other injuries?
8. What kinds of benefits do you imagine you could get from widening the spectrum of nutrition that you ingest? What is the spectrum of species now? List them.

I myself started a log of my own MMA training and MMA diet adventures, a diet and fitness diary with pics, and all the important data, including blood-work, and basic vitals. I started training MMA again this past January (2018) motivated by finding some videos online of kiddo I care about smashing on the mat! I was so overjoyed I had to go roll it out.

Being that I am always on the road these days, I am trying to take some heavy looks at some good, new, diverse, performance supplements too.

Good luck with your training!

The number one thing that would address with supplementation is electrolytes and hydration. Also a good oil.

MMA DIET DISCUSSION

The number one thing is hydration today. The modern diet does lack protein and calcium and al everything really but people are answering to that with the best performance supplements man has ever had.

At the end of the day NDdiet formulas are going to be the best performance diet and best MMA diet.

MMA DIET FAQ

Q. What nutrient groups should I focus on the most?

A. To start calcium, bone, and joint stuff, then move into hydrational elements, making sure you have a diverse amount of good well-sourced waters coming in, electro lights and amino acids, make sure you are getting sufficient nutrition.

I recommend next a protein and a glutamine supplement and or nutritional focus. See the proper way to take supplements.

Next, I really recommend the best focus supplement or even better all-natural permaculture-based nutritional plan.

Q. Where can I find this “permaculture?”

A. You may not have heard the term but its a big one. Look it up  I am sure there is one in your area, if not far away. Inherently these permanent -culture installations are some of the happiest, most balanced most willing to get their produce-to-you people ever. They likely can also grow on request.

Do you really like how this sounds? You can be the nutritional DJ for your gym, make a little money and have the best full-coverage nutrition around you. All you need is the permaculturist(s).

Q. What is the best grocery store stuff I can get now and make the best MMA diet with that?

A. You need to read this.

Q. What kinds of things would make the best MMA diet better?

A. Great question. Kombucha is one thing that would make the best MMA diet better by enhancing the nutrient uptake from the existing diet plan and maybe even allowing for the expansion of it.

The best hydrational supplements really do help, they also keep the immune system running well and hydration is vital to life, performance, and recovery. Whatever is not sufficiently hydrated will not perform, it will age, it may die and you will not get the results you want. This goes from the cellular to the whole muscle to the whole body.

MMA training is some of the hardest training which means heavy depletion.

Damiana Turnera diffusa, Turnera aphrodisiaca of the Plant Family of Turneraceae is a small shrub with tiny yellow flowers, and bright or dark green leaves depending on the moment and geography. Either leaf shade fresh turn blended green drinks or juice cleanses glowing neon green.

This powerplant has been most currently known to be used in Mexican culture as an aphrodisiac tea, using the flowers. It is native to New Mexico, Texas, Mexico, the Caribbean, Central, and South America, and is a very strong grower, coming in heavy around clearings and people.

Damiana’s use as an herbal remedy far predates written history. At the time the Spanish crossed the Atlantic, indigenous cultures had been using it for centuries as a nutritious herb and bladder cleansing remedy.

The electric herb relieves coughing, improves regularity, and gives a good boost of oxygen transport and connectivity says certain elder nature guides.

This plant improves digestion and high diversity diet’s want as many digestion improvements as they can get – with their Nutritional Diversity diet plans.

The plant could have been an original ingredient to the margarita, and it does increase libido and has a calming and slightly euphoric effect.

Most clinically listed as an aphrodisiac, and like honey and chocolate, it has been scientifically evaluated for this purpose heavily, but this is a nutritious energy-giving vegetable, great for salads and simple as that.

I love this stuff! She is one of my favorite staple herbs.

I love it when I run into her here in the street or on the trail in certain areas such as Isla Carenero whom the best damiana has taken too strongly, in the beautiful archipelago of Islands of Bocas del Toro, Panama where I write to you from.

The truth is, this powerful herb no doubt treats a diverse set of conditions.

Great plants don’t go without heavy opposition from mediocre minds…

Healthline published an article stating that “like a lot of herbs sold today, damiana is said to help enhance sexual health and treat a vast array of symptoms from diabetes to anxiety. However, there isn’t much more than anecdotal evidence to support these claims.”

The herb like every functional miracle herb known to man, has its angry critiques; Varro E. Tylercalls it a “complete hoax” and wrote a whole entire book about it being a hoax.

“It’s silly to try to escape other people’s faults. They are inescapable. Just try to escape your own.”  – Marcus Aurelius’s Meditations

In 1875, La Damiana was introduced in the United States by way of a Baltimore resident doctor, J.J. Caldwell, who wrote in the Virginia Medical Monthly of extremely old Mexican men fathering dozens of children with the help of their daily Damiana tea.

“Damiana, beyond doubt,” Caldwell added, “is the most reliable, useful, and permanent tonic to the genital organs of both sexes that we have thus far discovered.”

Mormons sold Damiana wafers that were advertised for uses such as strengthening the brain, nerves, and sexual organs, as a complete cure for dyspepsia, and as a remedy for malaria.

I am here to tell you we have thoroughly gotten to know Mrs. Damiana Plant very well, and while no one in my camp has experienced any malaria or dyspepsia, we appreciate her effects and her presence immensely.

This herb is a special one, and take it from me it is very effective for overall health and performance. You want this stuff in your system!

Healthline author Elea Carey goes on to say that “despite the lack of scientific evidence to support these claims, the damiana plant continues to be used by many people, as it has been for years.”

As much as I don’t care for modern ‘scientific’ evidence really, there is actually quite a bit.

The Damiana Plant comes right into town from the rural and the bosque (Caribbean), shooting up from cracks, or neatly placed in designed lawns, because of its bright leaves and pretty flowers.

It likes to grow wild near to cactus in certain deserts.

Most people are unaware of its edibility and its smoke-ability. I have made a blend of this herb dried with many other herbs as an afternoon smoke; since seeing ambrosia Peruviana herb cure a friend’s lifelong asthma.

These herbs like wormwood have been smoked for ages, could this be part of the reason? Homeopathic lung training?

I can personally tell you the fresh leaves are a huge relief to depression, anxiety, and a huge boost to mood and energy (for me).

The plant has been studied for longevity because of its anti-aging activities and the specific inhibition of internal self-created biological essences associated with aging.

This is something that after years of experience, want for my family, for my animals for my whole farm.

This is something easy to cultivate and looks good all at once, so I will strategically map her out all around.

This is permaculture, with placements inside a greater diversity of things grown together in the most self-maintaining way possible. Most people walk by this type of agriculture and see nothing.

Most people…

Let’s take a good look at the best damiana products available.

DAMIANA RANKINGS

This herb is still rare in the markets which means it is still cultivated in small fields hopefully, a selection of the best damiana products and steady sources, however, is hard to come up with.

We did serious verification on this one because we intend to recommend it to so many.

“We recommend the best here, Amazon does the rest here.”

1. Raw Herb

Current best source best price as of May 20, 2020,

2. Natural Herbal

If you know me I like the bulk, raw material buy, and this is the one for dried Damania herbs. Ounce bags of raw material including stems.

I prefer to use the entire parts of the plant in teas, obviously for smoking just the dried leaves, and for consumption of the leaves and the flowers (best fresh, but use what you can get).

2. Healthy Supplements

Half-ounce bags of raw herb are available from this company with fewer stems. Priced at the market price this second source of the herb can be mixed in for some geographical diversity behind the damiana planning.

3. Tadin

The good reputation and time in services of this tea product meet the test and for convenience and good reputation, I have ranked it among the best damiana supplements.

4. Alkaline Valley

For those who prefer to try new things like tea, this is a good one.

5. Smart

For those who like a convenient capsule. When on the travel’s or trying to have an easy yet calculated consumption rate, I ranked this product in the best damiana list as new extract form from a reputable company.

7. Vitamin Shoppe

Since our original electric article, many Damiana products have hit the market.

These wellness capsules are a new development by a big and reputable health franchise establishment.

8. Bod Smith

As the electric herb gains popularity potent extract supplements have become available. Help them build the reputation they deserve!

May help alleviate stress and anxiety in both men and women.

Damiana has tonic properties that may help improve digestion.

Damiana has both diuretic and antiseptic properties.

This particular Damiana Supplement is manufactured in the USA in an FDA-registered facility under strict quality control standards.

These particular capsules do not contain fillers, artificial flavoring, or other harmful derivatives.

9. Sexy Wipes

A stylish upgrade to self-care, add these to the purse to turn up an individual class just a notch.

10. Euphoria

Well, this new to the market could be a good one, they are certainly charging for it. If they put as much time into the product as they did the label and the Amazon copy text we will up-rank it.

“An exquisite spirit-uplifting elixir to help awaken loving awareness within the body. ”

11. Nutri Cargo

NEW!! NutriCargo has dropped into the market recently a 1.1-pound bag of ethically harvested Damiana Powder! While the product is new to the market we encourage trials and ratings to determine through more widespread testing actual quality. We hope very much to be able to rank this product higher rather than remove it. There is not another 1.1 pound bag of ready-made Damiana powder.

There needs to be a more agricultural focus in electric herb products as it becomes more popular. Remember to grow your own is best.

DAMIANA BENEFITS

Damiana offers a wealth of benefits to our ND diet plans it is pretty much a year-round staple for us here at the Biodynamic Nutrition Study in Panama. We have done a decent amount of performance testing on her specifically also in the ongoing tropical nutrition / athletic study work.

A great plant to tell you about personally, and how this personal testimony (if it is from an honest person) holds much more weight than any science or science-based statement does.

Damiana has and gives a free-er attitude, she really does.

For this reason, I probably take the opportunity now to explain how nutritional science and nutritional scientists today are the reason everyone is sick and underperforming.

None of these scientists are anywhere near us in human health science. They are going in the wrong direction altogether. They think they know better than nature because of the degree they got from modern education. They pay no attention to nature. for example, wtf is monoculture!!??? GMO!!?? What is that stand for anyways God Moving Out? Forget that.

Studies show that the Turnera did have inhibiting effects to phosphodiesterase-5 sets, an active mode used to treat erectile function showing, that very possibly this herb can treat erectile dysfunction. [2]

Damiana contains certain potential anti-cancer properties, and essences that treat wounds on the skin [3].

Breast cancer studies are ongoing. ..

possible positive substitute to tobacco and cannabis, smoking this herb has slightly euphoric and better mood effects [4].

Various other traditional and potential benefits of this species include the treatment of anemia, anxiety, antibacterial/microbial, antidepressant, antidiabetic, antioxidant, stress reliever,  anti-obesity, antispasmodic, antitumor, bronchitis, chronic cystitis, coughs, fever, frigidity, fungal infections, gastroprotective, hepatoprotective, laxative, to relieve pain, respiratory diseases, skin disorders, and to promote healthy menstruation. [AR1]

Antidepressant confirmed for the electric herb that I got out of bed with, sent from above, in a recent central study. [5]

DAMIANA SIDE EFFECTS

Side effects can include morning erections, or in the case of taking too much, it could result in dahabeah or nausea.

As with everything take with sufficient diversity, and not more than 10 grams in a day without building up to it.

DAMIANA EXPERIENCE

I am so into this “flor de amor,” I am growing it elongated cycles both sun and HID, Co2 injections, and the best organic fertilizers you ever saw.

Our farm is an interesting one, it is coming out of a hellish and tragic history and into a beautiful and Devine purpose.

It has been through hell and back a few times with me now, it has had a shocking amount of Jerry Springer contestant wannabes attacking it over the last decade. Attacking me and anyone I know and everything I do over the last decade!

Damiana and I are both recovering from so much…..

She was wiped out recently by bad farm caretakers from Slovakia. So were several other miracle herbs there.

I know with a surety that replanting her there will restore the farm’s confidence in me as their caretaker. Upon my return to the sight initially, the once happy sentiments there that took a long time and a lot of effort to cultivate were noticeably depleted.

A year later they are finally coming back

DAMIANA DISCUSSION

Across Costa Rica, Colombia, and Panama and up through New Mexico, the Damiana plant grows everywhere, her spirit of spice and spark pepper the billions of diverse species that work together in harmony that we know as “nature,” and not much more.

Maybe the name did come from a deviant nature, as one deviant, pretty much enjoys the company of other deviants, I have had an incredible relationship with her over the years. 😀

She even promotes 007 skills practice. For example, in public, it is a task to keep her a secret because people passing by seeing me talking to her, thanking her, and tearing off leaves to eat would likely think I am nuts.

I am always on the road I work outside of 16 different cities now in Permaculture on a regular. I love it. I love farms, I love nature, and staying on the move, this is the perfect thing for me.

The other way she encourages ninja-like behavior for example; I have learned to plant Damiana everywhere I go and not educate people on her so that there is some for me to eat each time.

Of course, I also learn who reads my site regularly among them, if I show up and she has been well harvested of a good amount of leaves and flowers.ñ

I stay at stellar farms I myself didn’t have to invest in, and I get the best products for my diet.

People trust me because they know I am going to really love their plants and animals, and do what I say trying not to say I will do things that I cannot, and say what I was not able to do and be honest at all times.

I have a career with diverse clients because of my honesty, so don’t get the deviant thing twisted. That being said a vibrant edge is a powerful thing to have.

Today folks are under a lot of pressure.

Damiana has a very interesting effect of helping relieve that pressure. If you need to inject some “care-free” or “take it easy” to your life, or you know someone who needs that effect, this is the natural prescription.

The flower of love is just one of many herbs with this type of animal support.

In the blender, this plant turns a green shake electric green. I was having one as I watched Hot Boxin with Tyson and Rashad Evans was the guest, and he said something that in all these years of my diet work, study and research had not heard before, and that was the phrase “electric food.”

He went on to explain “this is about food for connectivity,” and I started saying “finally I am hearing something that I knew that nobody seems to know, that is really really important, coming out.”

He is right, and this inner-systematic connectivity is a huge piece of the final performance, however, it is achieved, and there are many ways to get there. I will definitely be taking a look at Rashad Evans, the next time I take a look at MMA fighter diets.

This Damiana plant radiates electricity with its electric green and yellow visual results to its history as an aphrodisiac, and mostly by its fresh whole consumption effects (or blended) which are alone seriously impressive.

Dynamic and Multi-Use

I can’t get enough of this stuff it is such a potent ingredient to my regimen – it’s really one of the top plants I use regularly.

It’s great because it is everywhere.

If you grow it yourself, forget about it, a nice care for her, organic fertilizer a few times a week and she will take great care of you.

The best damiana plant tastes great, like a cross between light-tasting celery, cranberry, and watercress.

I get a boost from the fresh leaf, I feel like, way more than the tea. I eat the yellow flower also.

The Damiana plant is a perfect starting place for the beginner level diversified. Like the dandelion, it is everywhere you don’t need to grow it to try it, but you definitely should if you are going to use it!

Damiana being the female form of the name Damian gives some the idea that the spirit of the plant is devious.

Titles. We must be careful with titles.

We call it a bird. B-i-rd, but that is not what it is. In could be an ancestor, we don’t know and we don’t look into it because we ‘know’ it’s a ‘bird.’ – KRS One

Damiana is also known as the herb of warfare, the old woman’s broom, and la Pastora, like the reverend or leader’s wife, the first lady.

The Damiana plant is one of twenty-three incredible ingredients, in NDdiet’s E23 Performance Greens Drink.

Diamana herb is electric, you can feel her running through your veins, connecting up the system, in a rush of vitality, and many take it for granted. It’s hard to know things are great when things are great. Remind yourself and be thankful.

With this fortitude, and wisdom to recognize the dynamic spiritual realities associated with the plant and really getting to know her as a plant species, and courage to address her, and appreciate her correctly, could fruit a whole new nutritional exchange for you and for her, one that humans have forgotten about.

The electricity of this wondrous existence can really bloom a whole new type of flower and fruit within an extremely rare body like this. She deserves that kind of host and respect, if not so then more to be left alone.

To have her in your life is right around the corner in several forms for the special soul who seeks her out.
