Passionate About Their Health

  • WOW! What a pleasure to hear customers share their story about caring for and rejuvenating their health... here are some comments from two customers in Mobile last weekend.

    Alex, a young man, is well read and has great insight into the major health issues caused by industrial agriculture and processed foods. Currently, he is reading a book titled "Genius Foods" by Max Lugvaere. The book is a New York Times Bestseller that focuses on the cause of Alzheimer's and Dementia and offers a comprehensive guide to brain optimization. Here is a short summary of the contents:

    "Discover the critical link between your brain and the food you eat and change the way your brain ages, in this cutting-edge, practical guide to eliminating brain fog, optimizing brain health, and achieving peak mental performance from media personality and leading voice in health Max Lugavere.

    After his mother was diagnosed with a mysterious form of dementia, Max Lugavere put his successful media career on hold to learn everything he could about brain health and performance. For the better half of a decade, he consumed the most up-to-date scientific research, talked to dozens of leading scientists and clinicians around the world, and visited the country’s best neurology departments—all in the hopes of understanding his mother’s condition."

    Todd, a former Marine, is a matter-of-fact kind of man. Saturday, he shared how his cardiologist had told him to eat a plant based diet to help clear his arteries - which he did for three years until he had a major heart attack that required a 5-way bypass operation. Following recovery he took control of his health by researching and learning all he could how to improve his health.

    Todd's go-to person is Dr. Ken Berry on YouTube. What he learned changed his diet to low carb & carnivore (no plants) and eliminated ALL seed oils. Results include:

    * Lost 189 pounds
    * No longer diabetic
    * Off 12 medications including diabetic and heart meds
    * Testosterone improved
    * Cholesterol is perfect - yet his doctor still wanted him on a statin drug - which Todd refused

    Lastly, permit me to share a bit from Walter, an 85 year old retired medical doctor. He begins by saying 2022 has been a momentous year. He began the year weighing 370 lbs. and had been in very poor health for a long time.

    Last Spring he saw videos about Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) to treat skin lesions. Since he had quite a few, some very troublesome, he applied the ACV and to his amazement they were either diminished or eradicated. The use of AVC led Walter to the study of the ketogenic diet which he studied extensively & carefully as past dietary regimens offered poor results.

    By early September almost all medical problems have cleared up, he's no longer in pain and is now off all medications.

    Next, Walter said he had to find a source for quality food because he discovered it is not likely safe to eat anything that comes in a box or a package.

    Through a Google search Walter found Nature's Gourmet Farm. He studied all the material he could find on our Farm - including our YouTube channel. Within 2-weeks he picked up his first order to include eggs, beef, pork, and chicken. Walther says, "I am delighted with the results, so I have now decided to embrace a carnivore diet. Ben is an extremely knowledgeable person and is the paragon of honesty. I plan to eventually switch to eating mostly only his products."

    Recently, Diana Rogers (co-author of Sacred Cow), shared this study...

    Study Summary: Protein, Sarcopenia, and Healthy Weight Loss:

    It's no secret that I am a big fan of high-protein diets. That's why in this study summary I take a deep dive into the nuts and bolts of high protein diets and the evidence behind them. I discuss two recent and relevant studies showing how higher protein diets can cause "healthy" weight loss and why vegan diets are inferior in providing protein and may worsen sarcopenia. Jump into this topic by checking out the study summary here.

    So, we have read testimonies from three local folks about the health benefits of a high protein diet as well as Diana's work. Yet, we have many groups bent on doing away with Real Farm Meat like cows, pigs, and chickens. Stay tuned for thoughts on this subject next week.

Free RAW Milk | Election Impact on Food Health

Free RAW Milk- Last week I started a conversation around RAW milk and showed test results where raw milk is very similar to a human mother’s milk and contrasted it to current pasteurized milk that has none of the active ingredients found in human milk. I then asked folks two questions: 1. Is raw milk something you would be interested in for your family? 2. Would you like to receive communications about what we are doing and how you can help effect change?

Faithful Customers | FREE Raw Milk

Contents: 1. Faithful Customers 2. Free The Milk 3. Product Availability Update Faithful Customers- September we completed eight years selling our product via our website and making deliveries. From 2010 till 2016 we only sold whole or half beef & pork and chicken. Thursday a customer placed their order. The order number was 20,000 (that is twenty thousand). WOW! Now, that does not mean we have actually filled 20,000 orders because when someone deletes, cancels or leaves an open cart the number is not reused. But, those are exceptions as most of those 20,000 orders are filled. Additionally, this weekend will be our largest volume delivery ever
