Nutrition, Sleep and Consciousness
Article by Alan Chapman
Human health is easier to understand from a historical and ancestral standpoint, especially your own. And while each of us is different there are some fundamental facts in understanding how to be healthy and fit for whole life: free from pharmaceuticals and other unnatural interventions, as much as possible.

Most doctors and health professionals, and certainly governments, are not trained in nutrition. And yet nutrition - the nutrients we put into our bodiesfoods and drinks - are fundamental for our health and longevity.
'Health' is Old English from Germanic 'haelth', meaning 'whole', the 1920s origin of 'holism' and 'holistic'. Holistic means the 'whole' situation. 'Holistic' health treats the 'whole' person INCLUDING MENTAL and SOCIAL FACTORS.
Incidentally the word 'holocaust' derives from ancient Greek 'holokauston' from the two route words 'whole' and 'burnt'. Hologram and Holocene are similarly derived from the meaning 'whole'.
The word NUTRITION derives from Latin 'nutrire', which means 'feed' and 'CHERISH'.
CHERISHING our bodies and minds is part of the 'whole'with good SLEEP, and positive CONSCIOUSNESS (outlook or mindset).
Contrary to these ancient wisdoms, 1950s USA political lobbying prepared the 1970s USA 'high carbs' Diet Guidelines, later replicated in Europe. In the UK they became the NHS 'Eatwell Guide' also called the 'Eatwell Plate'. Follow the money.

Unhealthy diets and lifestyles are a holocaust of modern times, seen especially in obesity/diabetes and mental health. Governments simply do not understand health. Regarding technology and health see ActionAgainst5G.org, headed by Michael Mansfield QC vs the
British Government. More info about 5G/radiation/smartphones is on our website.
Happily, better health for most people is MUCH SIMPLER and EASIER than you might imagine. Information enables informed choices.
Also, GPs and health professionals increasingly are improving their knowledge in nutrition and 'whole' person health, notably via PublicHealthCollaboration.org, and LowCarbFreshwell.co.uk.
YOU CAN TOO! The information is free!
In summary from our lived experience, training and work:
• Good NUTRITION helps us to SLEEP, which helps us HEAL and calm.
• SLEEP is improved by better lifestyle and nutrition, especially reducing sugars, carbs, and tech/screentime, esp near to bedtime.
• LIFESTYLE is hugely significant for 'whole' health.
• Each of us is different, and we can educate ourselves FOR FREE about our own 'whole' health, and what nutrition is best for our own ancestral/ genetic type.
• Positive mantras, vibrations and energies of our CONSCIOUSNESS are magically powerful.
• CHERISH and LOVE your 'whole' self.

A Tough Start To 2023 For Anstey Rugby
Article by Chris Apperley
From late September through to 3rd December there was a long winning run for Anstey RFC with just one hiccup at Oadby Wyggs on 1st October.
Then came the new ice age giving rise to frozen pitches both home and away and many cancelled games.
With Christmas and New Year intervening it meant a long five week gap before we saw action again on 7th January hosting Hinckley 3rds at Link Road.
Over at their place in mid September we were soundly beaten 78-26 by a strong squad of highly experienced players, so it was interesting to see how they would perform when travelling away from home.
Again League Leaders Hinckley turned up with a large squad ready to show how they would do the double over 4th place Anstey.
The first half involved some excellent defence work from the home side holding Hinckley back except for one converted try.
Into the second half and Anstey battled hard scoring a great try which was almost converted.
Two more tries from Hinckley later on meant a final score of Hinckley 17-5 Anstey.
Compliments came in after the game from Hinckley players about our fantastic defence work holding off their ambitious drives and running advances.
A week later Anstey travelled over to Victoria Park to take on
2nd
Place
Aylestone Athletic.
Unfortunately due to injuries and other non available players Anstey travelled across Leicester with just 14 players giving us a mountain to climb. On top of that Liam Curtis sustained a head injury leave him knocked out missing the last part of the match (he is ok now).
Despite all this handicap the final score was Aylestone Athletic 31-5 Anstey which was quite credible.
Come 21st January we were back to full strength and looking forward to welcoming Stoneygate to Link Road for the first time this century.
But they called off at the last minute due to a lack of available players.
Coming up over the next few weeks we have away trips to Mellish and Market Bosworth together with home fixtures against Pinley, Aylestone St. James, Old Newtonians and Quorn
As well as league and friendly fixtures Anstey RFC now have Cup games booked in for March.
The 2022/23 season fixture list is on our website at www.pitchero.com/clubs/anstey/ teams/41334/fixtures-results

Prostate Enlargement, A Pressing Matter
Article by Gary Trickett
Prostate disorders affect many men as they get older, making their presence felt in around 50% of men in their 50s and almost all men over the age of eighty. The prostate is a walnut-sized gland located below the bladder. It surrounds the urethra which drains the bladder. With age the prostate gland starts to enlarge, slowly squashing the urethra and reducing the amount of space available for urine to pass through.
What is Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia or BPH?
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) occurs when the prostate grows to an unhealthy size, causing difficulty and discomfort for men when urinating.
Symptoms of BPH are urinating frequently, difficulty in getting a urine stream going and feeling as if you are unable to empty your bladder properly.
See your doctor
Although not life-threatening in all but its most extreme stages, it’s not much fun. BUT, before you think about treatment you do need an official diagnosis from your doctor so as to rule out a more serious condition, such as prostate cancer, which is estimated to affect 1 in 8 men in the UK. Symptoms can also be confused with prostatitis, a simpler inflammation of the prostate, often caused by bacteria, and suitable for treatment with antibiotics.
Saw Palmetto and prostate health
Once prostate enlargement has been confirmed, you may wish to try a Saw Palmetto supplement. The berries of the Saw Palmetto plant have been used traditionally to treat symptoms of an enlarged prostate. These berries contain specific types of plant sterols, including one known as -sistosterol.
Many doctors in Austria, Germany and Italy use Saw Palmetto as their first line of defence against prostate problems. Prostasan Saw Palmetto capsules from A. Vogel are indicated to relieve urinary symptoms associated with an enlarged prostate in men with a confirmed diagnosis of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia.
Men taking prescribed medicines for Benign Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH) or other hormonal imbalances should consult their GP before taking Saw Palmetto.
Do I have an enlarged prostate?
If you are unsure as to whether you have an enlarged prostate there is a simple test you can take based on the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS). It consists of 7 questions and will give you a broad indication as to whether you are suffering from the problem and if so, how severe it is likely to be. To find out more about the prostate test or prostate health in general, visit Gary and his team at The Health Store, West Bridgford or call 0115 9814080.
Remember it is advisable to have your symptoms checked by a doctor, to rule out any underlying prostate conditions, including prostate cancer.
