Four articles just got a very important update, and I'm starting with the controversy around the most common way people today understand the compound being discussed. But salicylate, or salicylic acid, has recently been shown to revert cancer cells back to their original regular cell DNA programming! These days, we typically associate this compound with aspirin, which is a synthetic drug derived from salicylate found in willow bark. Dr Mercola published an article today with the bombshell research, and I had to include it in the following four articles, along with a partial list of foods that are known to contain salicylate as one of their phytochemicals. If you or someone you know is concerned about cancer, these articles are for you: Controversy Strikes the Grocery List Again! https://naturalhealthgodsway.ca/2022/02/19/controversy-strikes-the-grocery-list-again/ Keytruda – Part 3: Three Drugs That Drain the Bank, and the Foods that Do Similar Tasks https://naturalhealthgodsway.ca/2024/02/11/keytruda-part-3-three-drugs-that-drain-the-bank-and-the-foods-that-do-similar-tasks/ Foods that Beat Back Pancreatic Cancer https://naturalhealthgodsway.ca/2023/02/03/foods-that-beat-back-pancreatic-cancer/ Cervical Cancer – It doesn’t have to be a life or death decision! https://naturalhealthgodsway.ca/2026/02/25/cervical-cancer-it-doesnt-have-to-be-a-life-or-death-decision/

Coming up for air as I continue efforts on my textbook before the foraging season kicks into high gear! I realized I haven't posted any new blog articles for literally an entire month! Oops??? This coming weekend, we are at Vernon Shoparama at the Vernon Rec Centre. We will be in the rec centre's gym. In April, we will be back at the rec centre for the Vernon Wellness Fair, and then at Maplefest downtown Kelowna the last saturday of the month. May's craft fair schedule has run off the rails, BUT. . . we end the month at our very first ever Ren Fair!!! As I type, Ashley is working on a leather corsette belt for me! Comparing apothecary outfits to 1850's bar tenders with the age if piracy, and in all three image searches, it was apparent that as an English rider, Ashley's outfit was prebuilt just riding her horse! She had made herself a waspy corsette a few years ago, and that completes her look. The Penticton Ren Fair is happening May 30th! Do keep tabs on our 2026 Where We'll Be card, and/or to the website calendar, clickable from the main menu bar across the top of my website. We've also discovered the wonders of turning pine bark into a spice similar to cinnamon, with a flavour profile similar to cinnamon as well. It lends the same flavour style to things like apple fritters, apple crumble, pumpkin spice blend, etc. We are changing up the tea packaging by the way! This is more cost effective for us, takes the same length of time to put together as the current packaging, but takes up less space, and is easier to use. Just keep the string for your own storage as you will need it to close the package. Wild Apple Spice is the first tea to use this packaging. With plants coming to life around the valley, now is the time to be planning for foraging workshops. It's going to be a knock-em-out year this year (on many levels)! Here's hoping if you live in the Okanagan, to see you around at various fairs we'll be at! https://naturalhealthgodsway.ca/2026/03/24/coming-up-for-air-update-on-book-efforts-spring-outlook-news/

I've written about Diabetes directly three times on my blog, and 18 times indirectly around other discussions. But today I updated this article with a quote from Children's Health Defense, who published a review paper commentary on Feb 17th, featuring over 280 paper citations showing a troubling connection between electro-magnetic radiation and the growing number of diabetic cases, particularly among children. You'll find the recent update under a list of causes provided by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (a foundation you want to be very wary of!)

Because it happened during the week of the World Economic Forum's meetings in Davos, Switzerland, consider the following three articles to be your PSA that if you weren't including certain foods, herbs and spices in your winter regimen before, now is the time to start. None of these articles I'm about to share are short! I recommend putting together your favourite beverages, maybe one per article, your favourite snacks, a comfey chair, and perhaps put on a fireplace movie if you don't have an actual fireplace. Then open each of these articles one by one, with a notepad and pen handy, and maybe have a pillow nearby to scream into if you feel it necessary. Use your notes to inform your shopping and meal/snack plans going forward. If you'd like assistance with this, do reach out to me.

Canadian delegation, including MPs, denied entry into West Bank! Group of 30 Canadians was blocked from entering at crossing in Jordan The Latest: A delegation of 30 Canadians, including six members of Parliament, was denied entry into the occupied West Bank early today. The move came after each delegate was asked to sign a form declaring they acknowledge they are a threat to public safety, which they declined to do, according to a spokesperson for the National Council of Canadian Muslims. The group is on a sponsored travel trip organized by a Canadian registered non-profit charity organization, the Canadian Muslim Vote. The goal of the three-day trip was to meet with displaced Palestinians, with stops in the West Bank and Israel. 🇨🇦 #MarkCarneyCantBeTrusted 🇨🇦 🇨🇦 #SayingTheQuietPartOutLoud 🇨🇦 🇨🇦 #JustSayNoMore 🇨🇦 🇨🇦 #CarneyLies 🇨🇦 https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/livestory/canadian-mps-israel-trip-9.7017464

Reinstate and ensure implementation of Mandatory Minimum Sentence for Accessing Child Porn! Five of nine Supreme Court of Canada judges have struck down the mandatory one-year jail term for people who access child pornography – child sexual abuse material (CSAM). They did it using a hypothetical “borderline” offender, even though the two real men before the Court had hundreds of files of little children, including images and videos of kids as young as three being raped and tortured on camera. 🇨🇦 #MarkCarneyCantBeTrusted 🇨🇦 🇨🇦 #SayingTheQuietPartOutLoud 🇨🇦 🇨🇦 #JustSayNoMore 🇨🇦 🇨🇦 #CarneyLies 🇨🇦 https://citizengo.org/en-ca/ot/17137-reinstate-and-ensure-implementation-of-mandatory-minimum-sentence-for-accessing-child-porn

The science of STAYING WARM: Mastering the art of layering in freezing temperatures! Instead of one thick coat, use multiple thin layers for better heat retention and moisture control. The three-layer system includes the base layer (moisture-wicking fabric keeps skin dry), the middle layer (insulating fabric traps heat without restricting movement), and the outer layer (waterproof/windproof jacket shields against elements). Avoid using cotton – it retains moisture, increasing heat loss and frostbite risk. Hats, gloves, neck warmers and insulated boots prevent heat from escaping. Remove layers or slow down to prevent overheating and sweat buildup. https://newstarget.com/2025-12-05-science-of-staying-warm-art-of-layering.html
