綠意生活 Green Life info ★ 實用生活資訊 Update: 2022/03/19
It has been a long time since the two years of the COVID-19 epidemic. Like many people, I have been thinking and self-reflecting on why human beings are facing such a serious threat, and whether there is something wrong. Many academic studies and advocacy in the religious and spiritual circles mostly point to the fact that the natural ecological chain is broken due to environmental pollution, the abuse of drugs, the consumption of wild animals (unfriendly or cruelty to animals)...etc.
Another big factor is the "quality of food". There is a problem with "what we eat".In ancient times, "the people consider food as their heaven". However, in modern times, "People take food as their concubine." We are picky on food, we eat as much as we'd like to.For a long time, we have overproduced agriculture and food, not cherishing enough and wasting resources, and there are even health concerns such as excessive use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides and genetic modification.
The nutritional value and flavor of the farm food we eat are not as good as they used to be. I am very impressed by this. I often feel that when I was a child, the rice was more delicious, fruit was also better, the sweet and sour tastes were just great. There are also biscuits and snacks that I think are quite a lot. Although I don’t want prices to go up, sometimes I want to say that if we can go back to the past, the food can be more expensive if it is worth the price, we will cherish and save it more, and we won’t eat too much because of the cheapness. Throw away half of it, or not avoid overeating and gain the whole body fat, or worry about the problems of calories, cholesterol, blood pressure and blood sugar.If I can eat the same good taste as before, I will be willing to spend more money, reduce the amount of food consumption, and eat less than 80% full.
After the epidemic~Healthy herbal new life
In the past few years, healthy superfood plants and herbs become a trend. More and more people have begun to pay attention to and use original food or nutritional products to maintain and improve their health.I recently found this very interesting * e-book【Backyard Healing Herbs】.The author, Donna Nicholson, a housewife who has had cholesterol problems for many years. She met Grandma Mary by chance. Grandma Mary is the owner of a herbal medicine shop. Her grandfather was a ship doctor in the 18th century. He invented a system of techniques for planting herbal medicines on ships. He devoted lots of effort to find the relevance between soil and plant components. and how to let herb grow naturally with the nutrients that plants need. Soil is the key point of this book. Everyone can plant herbs, but the herbs he grows can play their due role. Let's say, assuming good soil can achieve 80 points, then bad and barren soil can maybe score only 40 points.The author describes that the plants planted by modern commercialized and large-scale agricultural operations can be described as "empty nothings". There are no or very few functional elements in them, which is equivalent to a waste of money. This way of speaking is a bit too extremely , but I understand the author just wants to emphasize this point of view.

This book also emphasizes that you can plant in your own backyard using a space the size of a shoebox. The advantage of planting by yourself is that there are no problems with pesticides, fertilizers and heavy metals. At least you can see and control over it.
I also have this kink of feeling at this point. Sometimes I just wonder the vegetables I bought from the supermarket that I don't know whether the pesticides have been washed. I have heard a vegetable farmer friend said that the vegetable they eat is not sprayed with pesticides, but those for selling purpose must be sprayed with pesticides, otherwise they will not be able to sell. HA! She's really honest, but that's what it really is. I can also understand their hard work as farmers. I am growing medicinal herbs myself and have encountered pest problems before. Although I don’t plant many of them, I am also driven crazy by these pests. I can’t help but think about using some powerful pesticides to counteract it. Later, I used some essential oils, rice vinegar, plant ash, star anise water, sunflower oil + detergent diluted water, finally quelled the chaos of pests.
After a few months of adapting to the environment, the plants I planted began to grow more stable, and they were not easily destroyed by pests. Although the materials I use are not very expensive, but as to farmers, it will cost a lot of money to plant a large field. It does not meet the cost and the effect is not 100%, so it takes more labor. In short, if you have time, it is good to grow some herbs that are suitable for you at home.This book emphasizes that as long as the plant is planted according to the method of the ship doctor - "Mason jar soil test" can be used to ensure that the soil nutrients are sufficient. Simple use of some skills, not too complicated, everyone can get started easily.
In addition to teaching you how to grow herbs, the book also contains various tea recipes for health care and weight management, most of which are supported by scientific research. Such as weight loss, raising good cholesterol, balance blood sugar, anxiety and stress relief, enhance sleep quality ( valerian root ), chronic pain, heart palpitations ( passion flower ), intestinal problems ( dandelion ), infection problems ( echinacea , cornflower ), nausea and vomiting ( Ginger ), Headache ( peppermint ), Menopause ( herb's tincture Tea )…, there are dozens of exclusive recipes for from A~Z a list of problems. You can grow these high-quality and effective plants according to your personal conditional needs, and then follow the methods in the book to make tea or simply apply DIY supplies , cooking with food. In the long run, over-reliance on drugs can be avoided, and all aspects of the body's metabolism can be improved.
