Swap THIS for THAT (Inflammation Edition) Instead of ................................Refined White Sugar Try this..................................... Raw Local Honey (or Manuka) Why? .......................................Contains polyphenols and enzymes that support gut health. White sugar is a "pure" inflammatory trigger. It provides empty calories that fuel pathogenic bacteria in the gut, leading to increased intestinal permeability (leaky gut) and systemic inflammation. In contrast, Raw Honey—specifically Manuka—contains compounds like methylglyoxal and various antioxidants that actually help dampen the inflammatory response. While it is still a sugar and should be used mindfully, it brings medicinal properties to the table rather than just metabolic stress. I know there is a loooot of talk about sugar on every level and on every platform. But what I don´t like are the extremes: eliminate sugar for good (including not eating fresh fruit) or defent sugar as it is in everything. Moderation is key, at the end of the day. Our diet shouldn´t be a perfect but ballanced, enjoyable and shared. Live long and prosper! 😀

This is a short book, both ebook and print: Ten Forgotten Mediterranean Superfoods and How to Use Them: A practical, research‑based guide to the most powerful ancient foods of the Mediterranean. The Mediterranean Diet You've Never Been Told About We've been sold a simplified story: the Mediterranean diet is just olive oil, tomatoes, and fish. But there's a deeper, older world of nutrition hiding in plain sight—foods like smoky Freekeh (the grain that survived fire), heart-healing Sardines (the people's superfood), and the mysterious Salsify (called the "Oyster of the Earth" for its delicate, creamy flavor). These foods built civilizations. They sustained Greek athletes, Roman soldiers, and Levantine farmers for thousands of years. Then industrial agriculture replaced them with bland monocrops. Until now. So, if you are interested in discovering real superfoods, check the link below to purchase from Amazon. https://a.co/d/7eHJedy
