A second short page on the 'Therapeutae' health lifestyle topic.
 The Therapeutae
'Health, Wellness, Youthfullness - Accessing 'the Living Source'.
We moved to Cambodia firstly, right at the end of 2009. It was a complete surprise, how lovely it was, and it had benefitted greatly from having once been part of French Indochine.
This heritage is Cambodia's 'holding all the aces'. The entire character of the place was very special. The tuk tuks they use here, and still do in abundance, are a feature that also makes being in Cambodia special.
Therefore, it was something of a worry when in the years just before covid, someone thought to introduce, the Indian style sort of 'golf carts' as if that was some kind of progress.
The capital Phnom Penh was also very good, with still maintaining the French heritage and something of the 'feel' of the 'Quiet American' which was set in Vietnam in the years leading to the war, and is a novel by Graham Greene. The government seemed to wisely keep the skyline as it was, with only two small 'skyscrapers'.
However, in their great wisdom, as I discovered when I saw the latest tourist videos on returning here after 5 years away because of 'covid', I was greatly surprised to see a video "Enjoy the Skyline of Phnom Penh".
I can promise you, no-one cares one bit about the 'skyline of Phnom Penh'! Some crazy person in government seems to want to change Cambodia to look like everywhere else. This is a huge mistake. By making it more "American' or Western, it only encourages the 'lower level' tourists which have already spoilt other beautiful, authentic places like Bali, and in Thailand. In fact someone has built Australian style low set homes in Laos. It should not have been allowed, and is the last thing anyone wants to see in Laos. The region has beautiful architecture, lovely houses, it doesn't need this happening.
We also strongly advise to avoid ever visiting Cambodia during their Khmer New Year. It is awful.
This is also something they have made unacceptable, and it never used to be as bad as it is now. If I am in Cambodia at that time, I will always leave the country and avoid this during the 3 days in Siem Reap where they ruin anyone's holdiay, or apparently it goes for a week in Phnom Penh.
At the moment, Cambodia is okay, but with signs that it will or may, lose its authenticiy and charm. We have featured some of the Health Spas here, and they are often beautifuy designed and do offer good quality services. It is better to go to the 'best' ones because the massage therapists are likely to be reliable. With the cheaper ones, it comme ci comme ca. I had the best ever Thai massage for $10 but when I went back, the massage practitioner was not so good. That can happen with Thai and Khmer style massages, some are better than others, but we are so lucky to have so much of this easily available here.
For me, of course it is about assisting the stuff I've had to go through to walk properly after the progression of the 'Atlas Realignment' 19 years ago. I would never have been able to do this kind of therapy around 5 times a week, if I was in Australia.
It is also very good to be able to do this therapy for your body, maybe twice a week, to help improve the alignment of your body.
So we do recommend this, but also anything you choose to do please seek advice from your professional health care provider.
 The Therapeutae Way DOES recommend Structural Corrections for the Body.
We have covered some information on the 'Atlas Realignement' and the experience. It has taken many years and I encountered many difficulties which most would probably not want to experience.
However, it is good to do plenty of Khmer/Thai massage.
What I have also discovered with the Atlas Realignment, strangely discovered in fact, is that the right side of my face is 'out'. This became an awareness whwile I was, and still am, doing intensive Thai massage therapies to address the 'alignment' and also the answer to that 'appeared' for me. The Khmer and Thai massage does not cover this, and facial massage, although helpful and recomended along with head massage, still does not cover the specifics of the inner face and face muscle system. That has to be other execises that you are willing to put the time in for yourself.
One of the reasons for not being aligned to the 'True Source', or 'Living Source' also called 'Living Master' is because the head is no longer aligned to the 'Master Glands'. You can see that by addressing this, that part of the problem can be helped. It does require attending to the entire body structure though.
It remains necessary to keep to the 'Guidelines' and not to do the things that are stated not to do. The alignemnt has to be corrected or all such practices will follow the misalignment.
The other real killer that I had to deal with, and will cover, is being poisoned by a incompetent dentist when I went to work in Canberra. The mercury amalgam filling was inserted into my gum, and this caused all kind of damage, firstly to my life, and also in other ways. This is another reason for covering this topic. It is't about superficial things, even though why shouldn't we look attractive and healthy?
HAIR.
Obviously the Therapeutae Health way, is a vegetarian 'plant based' philosophy that is 'vegan friendly' which means there are protein creating foods which are not part of that philosophy.
The vegetarian diet is also part of the 'spiritual way' so that does mean the diet is plant based, and for this 'spiritual way' it forbids having eggs.
However, it doesn't say you can't use it on your hair. The reasons for the spiritual aspect outweigh any reasons for pushing the carnivorous diet, as the spiritual reasons must take priority. So too would a breatharian not be eating meat.
That said, as a vegetarian, possible health fanatic, you are probably eating a very well thought out daily intake of nourishment.
It is also possible to take a supplement that also assists the quality of your hair, so long as it is natural based. Biotin is a well known as good for the hair.
For washing your hair always use a completely natural hair cleansing product. No sulphates, no parabens and so on. Probably something made by someone who was passionate about creating a healthy product for hair. It is true that your body absorbs what you put on the skin and scalp, so it is important to choose wisely.
Some sources recommend Castor Oil for the hair as a conditioning treatment, but if you use that it can be difficult to get out of the hair. It can be really difficult to get it out of the hair. My view is that using natural, specially created hair products is best, and that using a similarly natural, wholistic serum on the scalp afterwards does help restore the natural ecology of the hair.
Some sources recommend not using a shampoo but using some or all of an egg yolk to quickly massage through your hair. Remember to use cold or luke warm water as you do not want to cook the egg. This is said to be a Victorian recipe from that era. I have not tried that as yet, but I will do soon.
If you are making a serious change in regimen for your hair washing, you probably need to be able to allow a few weeks for the changes to work. That means the hair may look not so good during the weeks of transition.
Other old recipes which are very good, are a cider vinegar rinse, or a beer rinse, and we will add the meethods for creating these later.
Before you wash your hair, use a scalp massager to stimulate your scalp.
You can do this on a daily basis, as I do - because I feel it wakes up my scalp and stimulates the blood circulation - or you can do it whenever you like. There are no rules except to do it. This will help with hair health, and with hair growth.
It is also good to use a scalp serum that obviously is a naturlal formula such as available here in Cambodia made from Amla fruit. Rosemary herb is very good for the scalp.
In fact I use this after I have finishing the washing and conditioner, and then I let my hair dry narurally.
However, I am still in a phase of restoring my hair after some hair treatments I was not happy with (Keratin) so I am using extra natural oils on the hair to make sure it is smooth but not weighed down.
After completing your hair cleansing routine, a sea salt spray can be good. This is something you can easily make yourself, rather than buying a commercial brand. Buy natural sea salt, and mix a few teaspoons in natural water and shake. Just use a little to scrunch through your hair. This has been recommended, but I have not tried this myself yet. However, it is on the list to do.
We all know by now that ideally we should have a good filter for the shower. For many of us, like myself, we are not in the position to do that. This probably makes the biggest difference of all, but if you can't get this, then that is the way it is. We still have to compensate and override the horrible chemicals that are in the water supply.
Always use a good hairbrush that is a quality that is safe for combing/brushing through wet hair.
I have to use what is available in Cambodia (which is a lot, and the supermarkets are more well stocked than in Australia). I am still trying to find out what happened to the supplier of fermented Noni juice.
A local entrepreneur has begun supplying pure, unfilterd local honey products from rural bee keepers, and from the forests in the regions of the hills (where they also had/have elephants!)
Vegans do not use e bee products, but it is fine for the vegetarian 'plant based' diet. The products include pollen which is a great source of nutrition, and they have also produced a skin cream and a skin serum. I am currently trying the skin cream, and will be buying the serum. We'll give some feedback on the things we are trying or are about to try. I am planning to try the egg yolk as the 'shampoo' probably only once every two weeks as recommended, but I will use the normal, but natural shampoo, in between that time.
Raw Eggs Grew My Hair Fast: Here's My Historical Hair Care Secret
Watch 6 mins. It is recommended to use only the egg yolk, not the egg white. She doesn't show the end result of her hair when dried, but from other exmples I have seen, the hair looks very good.
 Realignment to the Correct Blueprint.
At this time now, as the poles align where they are supposed to, there is far more opportunity to make corrections to your aligment.
Overall, the body is not completely correctly aligned unless the fallen atlas (as shown before) is adjusted. However, it is still good to assist your body function to a higher level, for the nerves, the lymph and so on.
We are referring to structural correction. As such we have recommended the type of Thai and Khmer massage therapy available here,in SE Asia, or if you can do this on a fairly intensive basis where you are, go for for it. Other than that, the suggestion is to make your holiday arrangement one that covers intensive body work for the benefit of structural alignment.
Of course, if you are going to do something like that, check with your doctor or health professional
We are also adding our opinion of exercise that is beneficial. However, we do not recommend aerobic style, knock yourself out type classes. Overall, this seems to waste energy and people end up looking older or getting older. We will add more on these topics.
Skin Care
Currently we are trying the completely raw, organic, unfiltered honey gathered from the forests in Cambodia, Its being used for skin care.
 At the moment I have have skin cream, the skin serum, and a jar of unfiltered raw honey. I have used this for a facial. I used a few drops of the serum mixed with a teaspoon of the honey and have used it on my face and because so much of it, I used it on my arms too.
It is not at all sticky, seemed to blend into the skin very well,. and from all reports, honey used on the skin has many benefits. It is also completely natural and full of interesting nutrients - some of which are not known - which also are absorbed into the body. The teaspoon will have some honey left on it, and that tastes good too.
The current practice is not washing it off, but adding the usual 'white turmeric and shea butter' cream to my arms (at night after this maybe once weekly treatment) and for the face, possibly leaving it, or removing some, then trying the 'skin cream' that this very local enterprise has made.
In fact, the honey is not sticky and it absorbs into the skin. It doesn't give a 'glow', but it is a nutrient dense feeding of the skin. It is then possible to apply the serum then the cream. The cream did seem to assist with the 'glow'. For information honey, amongst many benefits, is also used to remove freckles and brown spots.
For reference, our version of a honey based skincare available here, is, the skin serum and the skin cream cost $8 USD each.
"Raw honey offers numerous skin benefits, including its ability to moisturize, heal wounds, and reduce acne due to its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. It also helps improve skin tone and texture, making it a popular ingredient in skincare routines."
"Raw honey is a well-documented skincare ingredient with measurable effects: it's a natural humectant that reduces moisture loss by 40-60%, produces gentle antimicrobial hydrogen peroxide via the enzyme glucose oxidase, and has an acidic pH that supports the skin barrier. Manuka honey (UMF 10+) is best for acne and wounds, buckwheat for anti-aging, and raw wildflower for everyday moisturizing masks."
"There are 200+ bioactive compounds in raw honey include polyphenols (flavonoids, phenolic acids), organic acids, amino acids, and trace minerals (zinc, selenium, copper)."
Also always test for skin allergies.
Remember, that the honey is always the raw, organic, unfiltered natural honey and bee products (for non vegans). The honey that is gathered in Cambodia is often wild gathered from the forests, absolutely no pollution anywhere, and also some honeys that are only found in Cambodia.
We will report further,on this.
There is no need - in our opinion - to waste money on expensive cosmetic treatments to achive the 'glow' or 'glass skin' because the treatments themselves do not really provide any lasting benefits.
As said before we don't recommend RF facials which at a minimum are $100 USD per session, for a lmore gentle variation maybe $75 a treatmant, and then you need about 10 of these and the results 'last' about 6 months. *We are quoting the prices in Cambodia. There are also the previously mentioned skin needling 'glow' facials with a serum. These are to provide a 'glow' and as mentioned a .25mm needle depth will help on a superficial level. The facials offered for this using Cambodian prices range from $250 to $350 USD, and being Korean, they recommend weekly. The only way this can be safely done weekly is that the needle depth is quite superficial.
Why spend $350 USD each week for something that will not do anything but temporary results, or will provide some help acne scars, but do you really want to do this for 10 weeks or whatever?
If you want to achieve a real 'glow' then try juice fasting or a dietary intake around juices for a length of time that suits you, but in our experience, a juice fast will always produce a 'glow'. As always, anyone choosing to try juice fasting should take responsibility for that decision, or check with a health professional first.
My Personal Choices for Skin Care.
My personal view is that it is beneficial to use the honey serum and/or cream on my face daily, along with my other preferred daytime skin care choices. And/or night time choices. It has an impressive amount of nutrients which includes copper.
Having tested the honey facial which absorbed into my skin, I applied the serum then the cream. Following this, for a nighttime routine, I use Bakuchiol which is a gentle, plant derived for of Vit. A or retinol, and I like to use an organic skin oil after this, which could be Rose Hip Oil, Argan, but I am currently using Moringa Oil.
We like using high quality honey for the face and also for the arms, and this is also a good way to bring all these nutrients into the body through the skin.
 Strengthening the Fascia, and, Healthy Juices.
This is a gel-like web that encases the entire body. If your exercise routine focuses on fascia you will develop the tight, compact strnong look of the mrtial artist. It isn't just about muscle development, although we do recommend you do weight training exercises, and doing these at the gym my add more motivation, but if you want to stay stuck at home, or perhaps the world situation again forces us to spend more time at home, your exercises can be done at home.
However, this gel-like web structure is very interesting. It needs to be kept well hydrated, and 'structured water', which means the water that is part of the juices you juice is one of the best ways to 'feed' the fascia. This is another reason to include heaps of raw juices in your Plant Based Spiritually supportive diet.
 Best choices for juices are watermelon which is also rich is citrulene.
"When it comes to fruits with the most l-citrulline, watermelon tops the charts. In fact, the name citrulline comes from "citrullus," which is the Latin word for watermelon. Red watermelon gets its color from the powerful antioxidant lycopene, which also benefits your cardiovascular health."
But all fresh juices are good. This is part of the wisdom of raw juices as a major factor of your diet. They are also abundant in anti-oxidants.
Martial arts focus on developing the fascia, with exercies like Qi Gong. This means the basic stances, not doing anything other than basic stances.
When Marco Polo, the navigator first went to China, he and those with him, were fascinated when they saw the martial artists leaping through the air and so on. They brought this information back to Italy and to the royal courts where these movements were practised by the royalty and the courtiers.
These movements became the foundation of what developed into Ballet. So, doing ballet classes can also help with the fascia.
Or just doing a few stances, such as Hugging the Tree.
 Or just doing a few stances, such as 'Hugging the Tree'.
You can see that this arm position is also a ballet position for the arms.
To do this, you stand with your feet hip width apart, and your toes pointing forward. In ballet the toes would be turned out, but to do this exercise they should pointing formard, with your knees slightly flexed.
You gracefuly move your arms to this position and then hold for as long as you can. Maybe 1 minute, then try for 2minutes, and gradually increase the amount of time. When finished, you gently and slowly bring your arms downwards, palms slightly rotated away from you, and just calm the energy by doing this gracefully, thoughtfully, and slowly.
How the Upper Realm Consciousness Functions.
First rule is never make personal remarks about another. No matter how mundane or innocent your think your comment is, never do this. Do not make a personal comment on anything at all about another person, unless you are giving a compliment and saying something nice.
If someone does something wrong in some way, a big faux pas whether known or not realised by the person, or someone does something embarrassing, behave as if nothing unusual has happened. This is the correct way to behave, in order not to embarass anyone.
For example, President Trump cut right in front of Queen Camilla on a State visit, while she was shaking hands with some staff at the White House. This was a surprising, but Camilla walked somewhere else, and King Charles simply moved his hand to indicate a 'go ahead' with the hand shaking.
For 'Upper Realm' consciousness, the real goal is to be able to leave this 'wheel of rebirth' which is a 'false reality' and an 'illusion'.
At the point of Pole Reversal, whether or not it takes place, this is the easiest time for those who are correctly 'marked' (see Guidelines) to basically pass through a kind of impenetrable barrier, which for those correctly 'mraked' is not a barrier at all. They will be able to escape all future enslavement that happens with the cycle of this planet.
Breathing
My career training was not only about classical ballet and so on, but also about correct breathwork. As a stage actress, which I also trained to be, apart from learning the plays of Shakespeare and the amazing playwrights of recent centuries, it is also necessary to learn to speak properly and to breath properly.
We have said elsewhere, that actuually speaking correctly, as a trained Shakespearian actor would, is good for health and for moving the mouth correctly, thus beeter for the fascia. It does not do anyone any good to speak like a chirpie little cockney sparrow, or to slur their words, or even to have a limited vocabulary.
In addition, the breathing has to be trained. For this we breathe from deeply below the ribs but the key is to breathe through the nose and backwards or towards the back, not breathe upwards into the head. This is added as another technique to use.
Atlas-Structural Realignment.
Obviously, the Atlas Realignment is the biggest correction of all, and yet it was quite a small thing when it was professionally done at a chiropractic clinic which specialized in this.
Much more will be added, but I personally am still working through the Atlas Realignment which changes everything. Currently, as of August 19th 2026, I am at the point where the twisting of my legs is still apparent. I can report more as this progresses, but it's almost home and dry now.
It is very successfully 'untwisting' but this is not something that is forced. For example, I would not seek chiropractic work at this time. It requires patience and doing the things described that I have found are helping this. That includes the Thai and Khmer style massage therapy which I can get in abundance where I am living now. Working my way through this is still something I have to be patient with.
It is perfectly okay to do the Qi Gong type of exercies, less so for me to do yoga, although the gym has a class which I am going to try, and this is okay because it is purely about exercise, not special breathwork or anything else, and I am now doing dance classes at the gym, and quite successful with that. I use some of the gym equipment which is also very helpful. And I wait!
 If you look at the diagrams of where the thighbone meets the body, you can see what an issue it is to have this 'twisted'. This diagram shows a misalignment, but also visualize the thighbone twisted.
To do Thai and Khmer massage correctly, it should be on a thin mattress on the floor. This is the correct and best way to do this. Unfortunately because of the 'western' tourists who come here, the 'spas' which are Khmer massage clinics, have changed to suit the western tourists and now do this massage on a traditional massage table also used for their Aromatherapy massages which are available for tourists.
Another form of this massage is Japanese Shiatsu which is also correctly done on a thin futon style mattress on the floor. I did learn this massage at the Naturopathic College in Sydney Australia, and it was taught in that way. Using a thin Japanses style futon, on the floor. It is definitely better.
The Atlas Realignment is the Important Focus.
This is more related to the 'spiritual aspect' that keeping only to body realignment and retraining the fascia. When I did this adjustment in August 2007, it was because of my very real injury disability which is most aspects of it were corrected by a profesiional chiropractic doctore doing a very unusual and not at all normal adjustment, and that was when I was 32. It took all that time of my life to uncover the injury.
I did this follow up because it made sense, it aligned with the information on the damage to the planet, and I had two head related injuries I had to deal with. One was the original birth injury, the other was in late January or early February 2004 when the frequencies from the computer literally slashed through a nerve or meridian pathway. There is no denying how horrific this was to experiences, and the effects I had to deal with it in the years that followed. I thought my life was over. When I went to the doctors in the country town I was living in in Queensland, Australia, it was clear they were clueless, also I was not taken seriously, and worse still was they didn't care. I believe I went to about 6 different doctors trying to get help and was dismissed quite rudely by these doctors.
I'd never had any real experience with having to see doctors. Our doctor in England was professional and caring. These posers were not. I lost all faith in ever trusting doctors again. This was proven to be an accurate assessment when other issues with someone' else's health were the problem. To this day I never trust doctors again.
That said, we are talking about the Atlas Realignment and that it has altered, and correceted the entire alignment of my body. To be more precise, it is still 'untwisting' and still in progress.
The 'untwisting' does not mean that energy channels don't also spiral around the body. They do. This is a deeper thing.
Depending on the alignment issues anyone has individually, maybe it may not take as long as 20 years to correct. For me, it has been that, which makes impractical if the purpose is wanted to be complete before the time of 'Pole Reversal'.
However, it is absolutely good to retrain your fascia and do corrections through myofunctional exercises, and these do bring really great results. We will add a video intro on this so you can learn some of the simple exercises you can do. You can also retrain the entire fascia of the body with a few Qi Gong exercises which are the founation of martial arts and which gives the taut, lean, strong body that is not at all muscley. ***We tried to check the spelling for this word by accessing the Collins English Dictionary online, and we ended being 'verified' and other nonsense for accessing a dictionary!
Next is a video tutorial on how to make your face more attractive.
The guy presenting this work is only 20 years old and he did a remarkable transformation on himself as a once dawky, underheight, nerdy looking boy to a very attractive young man.
Also a young man with a very positive and healthy message for the world, along with his friends, all late teens or early twenties - and this is really great to see, especially as an antidote to the terrible damage that has been done by those in a consciousness the same as the 'Tate brothers'.
Also he is a great example of what the real English person is, as a product of good schools and a loving family, because the 'English person' the 'Z protocols' wanted presented to the world is always the Katie Price, Spice Girls, type of image, male and female, and this is not what real 'English' people are. They are what Oscar and his family and friends are.
In fact Oscar has an Indian father, who may be British born but of Indian heritage, and his lovely mum Megan is an American who is now English, and also there is his sister. It is nice to see, really well brought and well educated people according to what the real English standard is.
The photo of the girl featured as the example of a 'healthy' face is Adriana Lima. The girls demonstrating the techniques provided in the next video, is Oscar's sister.

Qi Gong Foot Exercise.
 Really good for the ankle tendons and foot. This spikey ball exercises is very simple to do. Just roll each foot separately (!) for a few minutes each day, to get very good results.
If you can't get a spikey massage ball, a tennis ball is okay.
 Human Diet.
We do not believe that humans evolved from apes, but instead human DNA was mixed with ape DNA. to create mankind. Human means Hu - man which is 'God Mind'. The original humans were fully human DNA.
For this reason it is understood that meat eating and generally pre-historic mankind things were not the reality of the original hu-mans. These things were part of the problems that happened with this planet after the 'cosmic event' which changed everything for this planet, and for this Solar System.
The 'Way which went East' is a specific way to returning to the original status. There is a far more important reason for the 'Way'.
However, on the dietary level, we do cover that eating eggs is forbidden, and certainly no raw meat foods! These are not natural to the original human blueprint. It is however acknowleged that our current DNA has been contaminated.
The normal hu-man diet centres around organic, natural plant based food.
 The Viamin C Power in the Peel of Fruits.
The orange peel, powder recipe is very interesting as a way to make a powerful nutrient rich powder you can use to stir into a drink, ie a teaspoon of the powder mixed with some warm water to make a drink, a squeeze of lemon and maybe a little raw, unfiltered pure honey.
Dragonfruit contains a super array of nutrients and polyphenols, but the recipe we liked is for Orange Peel powder. It is also called the 'zest'. This of course can also be used to make Lemon Peel Powder, and for those who experiment, this probably works for Drangonfruit too as an easier way to access the nutrients than the recipe we saw.
Starting with oranges, after juicing, but make sure you have throughly cleaned the entire orange. Then take the peel that remains after juicing, remove some of the pith which does taste bitter, and proceed to dry the peel in a low heat oven, or the sun, for a time enough to make it crispy. Then take this out of the oven or sun, and use a grinder to create a powder. It is as simple as that.
We are featuring Orange Peel powder, Lemon Peel powder, Dragonfruit powder, and you can consider Grapefruit Peel powder, Pomelo Peel powder.
  
A2 Milk
 For Non Vegans, A2 Milk and Why it is Better For You.
Apparently A1 cows were not meant to exist, and humans should not be drinking their milk or taking in their dairy products or eating them.
We covered A2 milk in our first manuals, then the news was that at that time, that it could not be advertised as better than A1. Since then, over 20 years ago, A2 milk is available and information is allowed.
This article comes from the internet, and is titled "Why A2 Milk From Jersey Cows Is Better Than Other Breeds"
Yet another way the 'Forces of Darkness' have provided detrimental foods for people to eat.
"Based on the literature, cows have domesticated only 10,000 years ago and were only able to produce A2 beta-casein protein rather than A1 beta-casein protein. A natural mutation in the beta-casein gene occurred in Holsteins 8,000 years ago, which led to the production of the beta-casein protein A1 in this breed. This mutation led to 12 genetic variations of beta-casein, of which A1 and A2 are most common.
In part due to the use of Holsteins for breeding other breeds, the mutation spread to many breeds. Slowly, the beta-casein variant A1z began to dominate in milk. While the dairy herds in much of Asia, Africa, and part of Southern Europe tend to be predominantly A2 milk-producing, cows in the Western world are most likely to produce A1 milk.
This milk contains only beta-casein, the A2 variant of the beta-casein protein, and nothing else (fat or carbohydrates) and is referred to as A2 milk. A2 milk seems to be an all-star product in the dairy industry right now. In TV advertisements, online, in the grocery store, and even on the farm, people are talking about it. There have been reports in the press that A2 milk is healthy, promotes healthy digestion, and reduces the risk for some diseases. Many of these claims are not backed by science.
Researchers have believed that a gene mutation occurred between 5,000 and 10,000 years ago when cattle were driven into Northern Europe. In the United States, Western Europe (excluding France), Australia, and New Zealand, A1 milk is the standard, while A2 milk is more common in Asia and Africa.
It has been speculated by some scientists that the A2 protein is a fairly modern variation caused by selective breeding practices, the use of bovine growth hormone, and antibiotics. There is scant evidence to support this theory, but Holstein cows are generally larger and produce more milk than A2 cattle since they have been bred to optimize their milk production.
The Advantages of A2 Milk From Jersey Cows
Some people think milk is hard to digest or have lactose intolerance, but many resolve them when they consume A2 milk. This is because A2 milk’s protein is easily digested. At the same time, the nutrients in A2 milk are more readily available. The largest brand of A2 milk is A2, distributed by Whole Foods and at a number of organic and natural markets. Smaller, regional dairies produce A2 milk and typically label it accordingly.
People who have difficulties drinking normal cow’s milk may be at ease when switching to milk with predominantly A2 protein. According to research, A2 milk beta-casein does not cause allergic reactions in people who are allergic to this specific protein. Beta-casein A1 and A2 milk protein are genetic variants of beta-casein milk protein that differ by one amino acid. New Zealand is known as the largest producer of milk powder. A genetic test indicates if a cow produces beta-casein A1 or A2.
Unlike regular milk, A2 milk has no difference in flavor as it is free from hormones and antibiotics, cleanly pasteurized, homogenized, and processed, and is available in whole, two percent lowly fat, nonfat, or chocolate varieties. Drinking A2 milk has no detrimental effect on health or nutrition. The only difference is that it costs more. A half-gallon of A2 milk costs between $4.25 and $5 while a half-gallon of regular milk costs just under $3. Two types of cows produce two kinds of milk. One type is A2 cow breeds and the other is A1 cow breeds.
A2 cows are also known as Desi cows while A1 cow breeds are known as HF cows. There are essentially two types of protein found in milk, that is, Whey and Casein. However, the A2 casein protein is divided into two classes: alpha and beta-casein protein. "
Many health and fitness related protein powders are from whey, which does not appear to be a product of A2 milk.
A recommended alternative protein powder is Pea Protein also for the reason that it is one of several natural foods which help the body with autophagy.
Autophagy means your cells’ natural “self-devouring” process for breaking down and recycling old, damaged, or abnormal parts inside the cell.
It uses lysosomes to digest the material, and the breakdown products are reused for important cell functions, especially during stress or starvation.
 A natural powerhouse for stem cell production is chocolate yet this is another natural resource that is spoiled in the initial process to produce the chocolate powder! This makes it difficult to find quality chocolate, regardless that it is 'dark chocolate'.
There is a difference between Cacao and Cacoa.
'Cacao is generally considered better than cocoa because it is less processed and retains more nutrients, including antioxidants and minerals. Cocoa, on the other hand, is roasted and processed at higher temperatures, which reduces its nutritional value.'
'Cacao nibs are less processed than cocoa powder, as they are simply crushed cacao beans without any additives, while cocoa powder undergoes further processing to remove most of the cocoa butter. This means cacao nibs retain more of the natural nutrients found in cacao.'
