I am such a huge fan of pesto! It is so versatile, and healthy…my favorite way to use pesto is in Paninis… We take chabatta bread, buffalo mozzarella, sun dried tomato paste, and pesto…oh my goodness these components create the best simple panini; each bite provides a burst of flavor. I usually serve these lovely paninis with homemade creamy tomato soup, it’s perfect for us dippers!

From the conclusions of the Swiss, Russian & German scientific clinical studies

1. Continually eating food processed from a microwave oven causes long term, permanent brain damage by “shorting out” electrical impulses in the brain (de-polarizing or de-magnetizing the brain tissues)

2. The human body cannot metabolize (break down) the unknown byproducts created in microwaved food

3. Male and female hormone production is shut down and/or altered by continually eating microwaved foods

4. The effects of microwaved food byproducts are residual (long term, permanent) within the body

5. Minerals, vitamins and nutrients of all microwaved foods are reduced or altered so that the human body gets little or no benefit, or the human body absorbs altered compounds that cannot be broken down.

6. The minerals in vegetables are altered into cancerous free radicals when cooked in microwave ovens

7. Microwave ovens cause stomach and intestinal cancerous growths (tumors). This may help explain the rapidly increased rate of colon cancer in America

8. The prolonged eating of microwaved foods causes cancerous cells to increase in human blood

9. Continual ingestion of microwaved food causes immune system deficiencies through lymph gland and blood serum alterations

10. Eating microwaved foods causes loss of memory, concentration, emotional instability, and decreases intelligence

Tamanu oil is a fabulous exotic gift to the world of skin care. The Tamanu tree is indigenous to tropical Southeast Asia; it is found in Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar, Malaysia, South India, Sri Lanka, and the Melanesian and Polynesian islands. In Africa it is referred to as Foraha oil.

Tamanu and its spectacular benefits and properties have been well documented, it contains anti-neuralgic, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antibiotic and antioxidant properties. Tamanu oil possesses significant antimicrobial qualities, as proven in antibacterial and anti-fungal tests.  It contains powerful bactericide and fungicide agents that defeat many pathogens.  Tamanu can be applied directly to skin, undiluted without any reports of adverse effects from its use. Tamanu oil is often compared to antibiotics and has the natural ability to alleviate the following conditions: Bladder infections, infections of the skin, Pneumonia, Abscesses, Boils, Conjunctivitis, Jock itch, Ringworm, Athlete’s foot and many others.

Tamanu oil soothes the skin, and it helps to relieve irritations including sun burn, inflammation and common rashes. It is extremely hydrating, and it also helps regenerate skin cells.
