You can release and activate more catechins (EGCG etc) from tea (green/white) by adding some fresh lemon juice to the freshly brewed tea. I buy 5 or 6 lemons squeeze out the juice and place it in individual ice cube trays. When I brew my tea I add an ice cube of lemon juice to my tea.

[@antoinettemorales3632]

Tomatoes from the can are very harmful. The acid in tomatoes causes the aluminum to leach into the tomatoes, which is very bad for you. Also, most cans are lined with a chemical called bisphenol A (bpa) which is a hormone disruptor. You're better off buying tomato products in a glass bottle or the boxed tomato products

[@MissLibertarian]

Does the Vita D button mushroom trick require direct sun, without glass? Or will it work through glass? My understanding is that skin cancer is more likely if sun exposure is through the glass, because it lets UV through, but keeps out the healing wavelengths such as far infrared (which helps mitochondria and cellular production of melatonin, is anti-inflammatory, and cancer protective). In other words, I know sometimes glass is a factor in the benefits of sunlight. Mushrooms often prefer shade where they get more infrared (which penetrates leaves and clothing) than UV, to grow. I'm not a biologist, but my high school career counselor thought I should be one... But I like to design experiments, not watch mushrooms growing.

The person I spoke to who had cancer was told by the cancer specialist not to eat tomatoes. I don't know why, maybe because of the sugar content.

[@coenfrieda]

Hi, maybe because tomatoes are belonging to the so called nightshade vegtables? Think that there is a reason why Doc Li adviced to consume tomatoes preferably warm. What I know from my aunt who has cancer, her results are great after she started to consume double quantities vegtables, mostly greens, everyday a kiwi and other fruit, taking Curcumine Extra Forte capsules daily, banned out processed food and artificial sugars etc. The oncologists are amazed by the results, she is 85 years now and battles already 7 years with this cancer, she is very positive person and takes a walk outside daily.

Ooh I can suggest you an incredible essential oil for your gastritis and kidney stones. These are incredibly potent and effective oil. Just by taking lemon and juniper berry essential oil your kidney stones will be gone in no time. My aunt had gall stones and nearly underwent surgery. She tried the oil and after 3 months the doctor couldn't find the stones. And for your gastritis there are many incredible oils like turmeric , fennel, oregano, lemongrass, peppermint essential oils etc... But be careful when buying oils. Most of these oils available in the market are not pure oils but adulterated so you cannot ingest it. Don't buy those, it will only harm you.
