by Leisa on April 8, 2010

I have a special affinity for WA with it’s beautiful weather, beaches and people.  Crops of Genetically Modified Organisms are being proposed for WA and if you are agains this outrage, I urge you to support the petitions below to see if we can make a difference: Just as DDT, Dieldrin and Thalidomide were proven

Another Victim of Thyroid Malpractice

by Leisa on April 4, 2010

Browsing through some news sites I found this interesting article about an actress in the UK who suffered from a debilitating thyroid condition: Dailymail.co.uk Sherrie Hewson speaks about living with a thyroid condition and the debilitating fatigue she still suffers from. In my mind if someone is still very fatigued (she puts it down to

Bonsoy Soy Milk Recall

by Leisa on December 28, 2009

There is just something a tad funny about this recall…  I would love to be able to find out a bit more information about it – so I’m doing some digging and will let you know. The official story is that there is a soy milk product on the market Bonsoy which contains Kombu, a

Another Medical Murder?

by Leisa on December 22, 2009

dailymail.co.uk:  “Today, the world lost a little piece of sunshine’: Tributes for Brittany Murphy as coroner rules out drugs death… Large stash of prescription ‘drugs found in house”… What a terribly sad thing it is when someone as young as 32 passes away – and it is even sadder that this may be another death that

Food is Food – Not a Personality Trait!

by Leisa on December 10, 2009

I love eating raw food, I love educating people about increasing the amount of raw foods in their diet and I love doing raw retreats and detoxing with a bunch of great people! What I don’t love is the aspect of raw foodism where people turn their diets into an almost religious fervour of righteousness

Government Wants Right To Detain Sick People

by Leisa on November 16, 2009

What is Australia coming to?  This type of proposal is downright horrifying for those of us who have a different understanding of health and healing than the mainstream orthodox views.  What is being proposed here is a absolute and complete eradication of our rights to health freedom.  It is VERY serious and I want everyone

Prozac Plague

by Leisa on October 21, 2009

I am not a fan of anti-depressant usage by any stretch of imagination.  I believe that they can be used extremely carefully in very traumatic situations, short term only – to assist someone who is in a very bad state and is not in a frame of mind to do what it takes to get well

Loving Our Animals

by Leisa on September 15, 2009

My father was a butcher, by trade, and it was when I was a very little girl that I went to work with him one day – and came home a vegetarian… That was the start of my foray into vegetarianism, veganism and animal rights.  I remember writing articles as a teenager, speaking out against

I Lied To My Dying Daughter…

by Leisa on September 7, 2009

This was just a sad story all-round, and it is hard not to get frustrated and angry with a medical profession that keeps alternative cancer treatments illegal and needlessly let’s thousand upon thousands of people die before their time. In this story, a 13 year old girl was diagnosed with malignant melanoma and had extensive

Tired Doctors Told To Drink Coffee!!@**!

by Leisa on September 5, 2009

You have got to be kidding!  This article really got my attention: “A new Queensland Health policy to combat fatigue among health workers recommends doctors drink six cups of coffee per day, according to reports. The issue of public hospital doctors’ working hours is back on the radar after doctors admitted being responsible for the
