Welcome back to Panacea, the newsletter that educates you on what is healthy and what is not and it’s not afraid to send you a ‘told you so’ each time you disregard those information and choose for the Dark side instead.

I hope you are having a glorious week.
I have an announcement and a special offer for you. But I will tell you at the end of this mail.

Today we are talking about health (dah) from a different perspective.
The epoch the word ‘healthy’ is used in, because context matters.

Sometimes, the best way to move forward is to look back.

History, in all its grim and glory, serves as a timeless teacher, imparting lessons wrapped in the cloak of time. However, it's up to us to decipher these lessons, especially when it comes to our health.

Let me be your H.G.Wells chaperon and join me on a time travel filled with stories about our ancestors' health practices, the good, the bad, and the downright dangerous.

I’m betting money that for each epoch, there was some enlightened peasant or ‘quack’ whose advice was highly disregarded that could say ‘I told you so’ only after Science entered the room. Giordano Bruno knows what I’m talking about.

Our first stop is ancient Mesoamerica, home to the mighty Mayan civilization. The Mayans, known for their advancements in mathematics and astronomy, also practiced a rather strange custom for beauty and status - head shaping. This extreme form of body modification was achieved by bounding infants' heads with cloth, resulting in an elongated skull - a mark of the noble and the brave.

Our journey continues to the Age of Exploration, an era of discovery and peril. The seafarers, in their quest to explore new lands, were often struck by a deadly foe – scurvy. Their diet, devoid of fresh fruits and vegetables during long voyages, made them vulnerable to this disease. The cure, as we now know, was in the citrus fruits of the lands they sought (that’s how grog came to life). Back then was a necessity to withstand the months of sailing, today there is no excuse to drink like a pirate or avoid vitamin C in your diet.

The industrial revolution, a time of discoveries and scientific progress where chemical compounds and new materials are invented. Asbestos makes its appearance: it found its way into numerous products, from insulation to clothing. Celebrated for its heat-resistant properties, asbestos was considered a miracle material. Fast forward few decades and not only the people dealing directly with it started dying, but also their wives (for washing their clothing).

20th century, and we find the widespread use of dental amalgam fillings. These fillings consisting of a mixture of metals including mercury and became a standard in dental restoration. However mercury leads to neurological and kidney damage.

Cigarettes. Endorsed by Hollywood stars and by your doctor (Doctors used to smoke Lucky Strike apparently). It took 50 years (fifty) to connect lung cancer to smoking cigarettes.

Margarine (one molecule away from being plastic) was advertised and promoted as a cholesterol-free substitute for butter. Laden with trans fats, now proven to damage your arteries and lead to heart disease. Yum.

Fluoride in our water supply and toothpaste. It was initially introduced for dental health (I still have to justify on why I don’t want a fluoride mouth wash when I go to the dentist) and recent research suggests potential negative effects on the thyroid and neurological development in children.

Do you know about Marie Curie's glowing notebook? This woman was handling plutonium without knowing exactly what it was. She did not turn into an X-Men and today her notebook is still radioactive. She just didn’t know better.

We shifted from centuries of evolution and learning by trial and error removing the unhealthy and dangerous for the health and wellbeing of the people UNTIL people started owning products and resources, then the unhealthy, dangerous and potentially deadly became a collateral damage on the way to make profits.Talk about the elephant in the room.

These are the practices that were believed to be beneficial to get back to health. I imagine people from past generations developing PTSD about doctor checks:

Doctors used to practice bloodletting (removing "excess" blood to balance the body's "humors" and cure a variety of ailments, from fever to plague).

Trepanation: do you have a migraine? Let’s drill.

Mercury Treatment: Mercury was used in various forms to treat a range of conditions, including syphilis and constipation. One night stands were not so cool back then.

Radithor: In the early 20th century, radium was considered a health tonic (people were drinking this - radioactive drink) and "Radithor" (a product containing radium) was marketed as a cure for a variety of ailments. Not even Monster pushed it that far.

Tobacco smoke enemas: the 18th century must have been a hell of a ride.

X-Ray Shoe Fitting Machines: In the mid-20th century, shoe stores used fluoroscopes (essentially X-ray machines) to measure shoe size. Yes, it was a jungle out there.

So, what does this journey through time teach us? That what is popular or common practice is not always what's best for our health. We must question, research, and most importantly, equip ourselves with the right knowledge.

And at the time of writing this, there are still people drinking mountain dew and eating nutella. (I know you are out there).

This is precisely why I am launching a course, 'Biohack Blueprint'

A comprehensive understanding of your body, the impact of food and habits on your health, and strategies to optimize your well-being.

The course provides an in-depth look at the science of nutrition, practical cooking skills, and innovative biohacking strategies - a complete guide for your health journey.

My VISION is to challenge the status quo in the health and nutrition industry and empower YOU to take control of your health through food.

My MISSION is to provide the knowledge and tools necessary to debunk nutrition myths, make informed food choices, and live a healthier life without dependency on medications or fad diets.

Now, more than ever, it's essential to take control of our health and go back to the basic skill that will help us nurture our body. To learn from the past, to understand the present, and to shape a healthier future.

With over seven years of experience as a professional chef, I've witnessed society's health decline firsthand. This observation sparked a passion in me to dive into the relationship between food, habits, biohacks, and health. Now, I've condensed all that knowledge and experience into a transformative course designed to empower you to take control of your health.

The course will start on September the 9th and this is how it will look like:

Module 1: Introduction to Body Mastery

Module 2: The Science of Nutrition

Module 3: Understanding Your Body: Discover how your body works, the influence of daily habits and food, and learn to interpret your body's signals.

Module 4: Healing Foods vs. Harmful Foods: Learn to distinguish between nurturing and harmful foods.

Module 5: Nature's Pharmacy: Immerse yourself in Ayurvedic principles and ancient cultural wisdom to understand how specific foods, spices, and herbs can promote health and even replace medications.

Module 6: Practical Cooking Skills: Demystify the kitchen and become proficient in creating tasty, healthy meals.

Module 7: Biohacking for Optimal Health: Harness simple yet powerful biohacks to supercharge your wellbeing.

Module 8: Maintaining Thriving Health: Develop sustainable habits to keep your health at its peak for the long haul.

and this is why you should join:

The standard of health has been declining at unprecedented standards but you should not set for lower just because the rest of the world accepts chronic inflammation, constant sickness and mood and energy swings on a daily basis.

Our modern lifestyle is not sustainable. The three most impacted things in our life are the costs for lifestyle-related medical expenses, our fertility rate and our life span aka longevity.

• In the U.S., the cost of cardiovascular diseases and stroke was estimated to be $351.2 billion in 2014-2015. The total cost of cancer was about $183 billion in 2015.

• In Europe, the annual cost of cardiovascular diseases is estimated at €210 billion. The cost of cancer is approximately €199 billion per year.

• In Australia, the cost associated with cardiovascular disease was about AUD $5 billion in 2018. The total economic cost of cancer in Australia was estimated to be AUD $28.2 billion in 2021.

Every choice people make becomes the compound interest of their future and it could not be truer when it comes to food and lifestyle choices.

I designed the course to provide anyone going through the modules and the cooking lessons with the knowledge and skills to heal themselves through food and build their body up with breathwork, meditation and other practices.

I want to take you to a level of health so high that looking back you won’t be able to recognise who you used to be.

I want to provide you with a resource that will help you to reshape you body into a healthier, stronger and more resilient one and give you the tools and knowledge to cook food that will help you in the healing process.
