I have come up with a way to describe the coming year. The Year Of Excuses!. That is if we are lucky and "our" narrative becomes the common one. Otherwise the MACHINE continues to roll over us all, Fingers crossed.

Yes, the more we live under the Divine Will and Order, the more Light lives in us & we see lies like big red flags.

If we live in darkness, lies can creep in undetected.

I pray for everyone to love the Light and live as we are designed to live. One Light, One Love and One Will in Christ.

Thanks for validating truth, instead of cowardly staying silent.

I tried to warn family and friends about being herded into being given the experimental COVID shot with no informed consent and no liability, but many sadly did not head my warnings to their own sad consequences. If more doctors had your courage, more people would have listened to their own common sense and would still be here.

Hi John and best to you for 2023

You must read (in case you have not yet) FA Hayek's Road To Serfdom (1945-46).

Though I do not agree with certain things he points to - however as to what you say "overrun the defenders of truth"... The book might help. There is less and less (until there is none) value in defending truth - especially in this form of surveillance capitalism that we all have vouched for and are investing in. Yes this 'sub'stack business included.

Keep the resistance ! Best !

TO INCREASE ABSORPTION of hard to absorb "herbs".  "In Ayurvedic medicine you take remedies together with ghee and honey - fat and sugar." (Elizabeth)

From some reading I am thinking that some? basic simple process of coating with a sugar and then a fat? or a fat then a sugar? or all at once? would substantially increase absorption of many harder to absorb herbs and the like.

"While searching to find how to increase absorption of quercetin I found two patents. The first is an Indena SpA patent concerning "Quercefit"- "Quercetin Phytosome" In their earlier application documents ( only the final 2020 patent seems easily available now) they made an interesting revelation that a simple mechanical mixture of quercetin and maltodextrin or fructose (or other sugar) and lecithin (they use sunflower) in the range of 1-1-1 or any number of ratios increased absorption by 10 times while their lysosomal/phytosome product where they dissolve all in 190 proof ethanol which, at that time, they said increased absorption by 20 times. Now in the final document they claim that that their full process increases absorption by 50 times and they make no mention of the efficacy of the simple mechanical mixture but they do put a graph at the very beginning of the document which shows the low absorption of quercetin, the higher absorption of the :"physical mixture" (mechanical mixture) and the highest absorption of their "solid dispersion" which is their alcohol dissolved and dried "phytosome product Quercefit. That graph is best seen in the pdf US20200.... They say the use of the "sugar" is important.

A mortar and pestle is the obvious choice.I first used the back of a tablespoon against a plate to grind together the quercetin and the maltodextrin (sugar) then the lecithin.

I have since dissolved the "sugar" (nutricost organic maltodextrin "TapiOK" brand) in a bit of water then mixed in the harder to absorb "herb" then mixed in the Now brand sunflower lecithin then added olive oil. I wonder would it be better to dry the maltodextrin herb lecithin mix then add olive oil? Dissolving the maltodextrin does seem more effective way to "attach" the "sugar", and lecithin does attach to both water and fat and may, then, help present to a fat receptive absorption site in the body as does the maltodextrin absorb easily into the body as per its use by elite long distance runners (some like straight maltodextrin and some like 3 parts maltodextrin and 1 part fructose in water +++ for fuel and hydration during the run)

the other patent US8440... helps inform the usefulness of taking quercetin with B3 and C. 

from the other patent "Additional and related Surprising observations include that a combination of quercetin, vitamin B3. and vitamin C maintains quercetin levels in plasma up to five times those of quercetin alone or a combination of quercetin..."

Thank You for all you share. James

Excellent backgrounder. James Corbett has been a wonderful source on facts surrounding both World Wars. He did an epic documentary on WWI and has had one on WWII in the making for a few years. Worth keeping an eye out for that.
