in answer to yesterday's article, I went looking for something to make for myself. Two questions came to mind: Could one make chickpea hummus with carrots, and can one blend cheese into hummus?

Various people do include carrots in their hummus. I then found a recipe for a cottage cheese hummus, and figured I could swap in my cheese sauce instead. While digging these up, I found another way to prepare dry chickpeas that doesn't involve soaking all night.

I enjoyed my first meal with the dip, and then went to my database. As noted in yesterday's article, vitamin's A,C, and E have been noted to help with anti-inflammatory action in the lungs. Both A and E are fat soluble, and that is provided in my dip with the cheese sauce made from heavy cream.

Parsley is in the list of foods containing beneficial compounds for lung health and healing, boasting 9 of the 29 compounds that bring down inflammation and help restore function, Onions contain both cysteine and quercetin, both found by researchers to be beneficial in the quest for better lung health.

We were recently approached at the Rutland Flea Market, with whether or not we had any teas that would be recommended for someone suffering COPD. The day was slow, so Ashley began looking up a few studies online, sent me a couple links, and when we got home, I began my own research.

Various compounds found in food, herbs and spices have been observed for their ability to address some aspect of COPD. A few of the herbs are in one or more of the teas we sell on Ashley's Ashtree Wildcrafting table, and we have zeroed in on the specific tea to offer the inquirer when we see them again.

COPD is a multi-faceted condition that can begin a number of ways, including smoking or being around smokers, poor long-term dietary choices, age, and bacterial lung infections. The COPD sufferer needs to assess their lifestyle, their environment, and their daily food habits if they want to begin the road to healing.

While the CNN reference taking up several pages could have been omitted, Mercola's pulled together a number of studies and reports that are showing alarming trends around the whole GLP-1 drug craze. He then lists a number of more useful steps a person can take if they want the purported results of GLP-1 without risking the adverse side effects that are growing in number out there. Repairing your gut is at the top of the list, because a certain gut bacterium is known to do the job that many GLP-1 drugs claim to do, without the side effects. If you want to see the studies for yourself, go to the end of his article and click on the papers you want to read. The footnotes will take you directly to each paper or article.

If you would like assistance with putting that workable list into practice, or wanting to know what foods, herbs and spices can help you achieve a similar goal, reach out to me and lets chat.

Canada's public health agency is waging war against meat, but in the broader focus, against protein in general. Health Canada has been targetting chicken farms in the Lower Mainland of BC, and turkey farms out in Ontario, killing what one article called "millions of birds" out there! This of course will drive up the cost of poultry and eggs. Health Canada has also set their sites on the beef industry in Canada, and recently declared a recall on one of the currently most-affordable options to get beef back into low-income diets, No Name Beef Patties in their trademark yellow box with black lettering. The concern this time, is potential E.Coli poisoning, although they state in the article that no one has fallen ill yet, but that testing may expand the recall to a wider range of products!

Maybe its my lack of trust in the mainstream establishment, but this all sounds contrived, and very much agenda-driven. Click through to read my suggestions on how you can get around government-driven ill health:

It's time for the Top 25 for 2025! This is the moment when we look at what the most popular articles were from last year, and get a glimpse into who is viewing them.

Apparently bread-making was at the very top of the list! People wanting to learn about my services got a good number of hits as well, which I find very encouraging.

Both my cookie articles made it into the top 25! Who says going wild means giving up fun things like sweets? (we won't mention the brain needs sugar, just not at junkfood levels).

I was happy to see how many devotional commentaries made it into the top 25 articles. As your Biblical Natural Health Coach, my premise does come solidly from Scripture as the final authority on what I share and do.

I stopped keeping up with the latest in SEO rules and regulations, and even without those efforts anymore, the following list of referrers showed up for 2025:

As problematic as gab has been over this past year for me as a user, it has sent a fair number of visitors to my content. Both Librti and USA.life, two other alternative platforms that I am on, have sent traffic as well.

Lists like this show that no matter where you live, shifting to a more natural way of handling your health using food as medicine is a common train of thought these days.

The baffling thing for me, is seeing decidedly muslim nations in the list. Places such as Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and Indonesia. it is my prayer that the true seekers among them will find Christ as their Lord and Saviour. If you've never made this decision and want to learn more, reach out to me and let's chat.

This concludes our look back over 2025 and what it meant for content people are viewing on Naturalhealthgodsway.ca. Here's looking out across 2026, and asking God to go with us into a year that promises to be adventurous in more ways than one.

CANADIAN BIRTH RATE VS. MASS IMMIGRATION

...from friendly and/or hostile cultures towards the west,
is not only an important but also an urgent conversation we need to have!

Can we survive without it?

With current 1.25 birth rate per woman in Canada, and the minimum birth rate sociology experts recommended to prevent a society from going instinct is 2.1 per biological and socially Canadian women in Canada.

Not the Canadian only by paper yet their hearts belong to a more sinister demographic take over agenda for a hostile religion or non-Canadian culture, but actual Canadian women in hearts and minds, not only by birth but a woman espousing authentic Canadian social, cultural and family values, married to an authentic Canadian man in heart and mind!

Is migration a necessary evil we have to embrace?

There is also double standards in Canada about growing your family. Islamic polygamists, Muslims having 3 ,4, 5 or more wives are not on the radar of the authorities, they have effectively turned a blind eye that this is actually happening in Canada, despite the blatant declaration of the Islamist that one of their methods to take over western societies is by demographic shifts.

Muslims are indeed showing the fastest growth by birth rate in Canada and the west. Christian polygamists like the fundamentalist latter day saints and others are raided and vilified constantly by the authorities! Why the double standards?

Muslim women in Canada have an average fertility rate of 2.4 children per woman. This is notably higher than the general Canadian population, which averaged approximately 1.4 to 1.6 children per woman in recent periods.

Child-bearing Age: A larger proportion of the Muslim population is entering or is currently in child-bearing years. Roughly 26.3% of Muslims are under the age of 15, compared to only 16.5% of the total Canadian population.

Islam allows adult Muslim men to take 9 year old girls as their wives and get them pregnant at a young age!

Population Projections
Current Proportion: As of early 2026, Muslims represent approximately 5% to 5.2% of Canada's total population.

Future Growth: Projections estimate the Muslim population will reach 2.7 million by 2030 (about 6.6% of the population) and could rise to 5.9 million (12.6%) by 2050.

Western women had been socially engineered since the mid 60's to embrace careers and shun starting families early.

This socially engineered mindset had been installed to become an individualist value and belief system by design to undermine population growth in Western societies!

Economists are also weighing in.

Unless an economy is on a constant growth trajectory, it is on a constant decline. Economies are like bi-directional rivers/creeks it's going only one way or the other it cannot stand still.

Economic growth is also closely tied to population growth. When the population growth rate of a society is on a constant decline, it's economy is also on a constant recession. That translate directly to inflation and how we are able to afford food and necessities and all the retail prices in groceries, at the pumps and shopping malls!

If we have to embrace migration to prevent extinction of our society and maintain the growth of our economy, should we be bringing in migration from hostile cultures or migrants compatible with Western Values?

What difference does it make if we selectively vs indiscriminately import migration from other Christian societies, Hinduist societies, Islamic societies, caste discrimination societies, honour killings societies, communist societies, sharia law societies, public defecating societies, narco-economic societies? Does it make a difference, should we discriminate or just bring the entire world in, the good the bad and the ugly?

Let's have an honest , adult and meaningful conversation about this!

Just a taste from tomorrow's blog (you can subscribe here https://johnhrusky.substack.com )

Swamp Leader Thune Accused of Laundering Millions – Explains the Trump Betrayal?

In a bombshell that’s got the swamp sweating, Senate Majority Leader John Thune — supposedly a Republican — is staring down an FEC complaint accusing him of orchestrating a whopping $1.1 million money laundering scheme into his campaign coffers through “smurfing,” that sleazy tactic of splintering big bucks into tiny donations using stolen identities of unsuspecting seniors. Filed by sharp-eyed investigator Peter Bernegger, the gripe fingers Thune and his treasurer Nicole Weyers for allegedly funneling cash straight from the U.S. Treasury, painting Thune as just another “pretend Republican” who’s spent over 40 years sucking at the government teat without a real job in sight. Bernegger’s no rookie; he’s nailed similar scams against turncoats like Lindsey Graham and a slew of Democrats, exposing how platforms like WinRed become playgrounds for fraudsters. If this holds water — and early buzz suggests it’s legit — it’s no wonder Thune’s been dragging his feet on anything Trump-related, from ditching the race in 2016 to cheerleading the endless Ukraine cash grab while blocking votes to cut off the Taliban’s weekly allowance.

This FEC fiasco shines a glaring light on why Thune’s been about as helpful to Trump’s agenda as a screen door on a submarine, stonewalling efforts to codify those powerhouse executive orders into ironclad law — because let’s face it, most Republicans are neck-deep in the same graft and fraud game as the Democrats, lining their pockets while pretending to fight the system. Thune’s history of backstabbing Trump, from begging him to bow out for Pence to enabling endless foreign aid boondoggles, screams “controlled opposition,” bought and paid for by the same deep-state donors who thrive on chaos and corruption. As Bernegger’s complaint ripples out, it’s a wake-up call for real conservatives: time to purge these RINOs who talk a big game but deliver zilch, proving once again that Trump’s the only one draining the swamp while the rest wallow in it. If Republicans want to keep the majority, they’d better start acting like it — or get ready for the MAGA broom to sweep them out.

Opposition to Liberal bill that could criminalize quoting Scripture is gaining momentum!

It is vital that we stop Bill C-9 before it passes in Parliament, especially now that the 'religious exemptions' have been removed.

Strange smell coming from Tennessee man's SUV turns out to be a giant python!

When Knoxville, Tennessee, resident, Jesse Hodge, noticed an unusual smell coming from his car over the course of several days, he scheduled a maintenance checkup.

But before he got around to his appointment, he decided to take a look under the hood and see if he could identify the problem on his own.

The problem ended up being much easier to identify than he expected.
