EFFICACY OF FUTURE MEDICATIONS...

The  effectiveness of medications in maintaining or restoring health in the near future will actually be determined on the farms and not in the labs

BEWARE OF FOODS PRESERVED WITH FORMALDEHYDE- FORMALIN

Formaldehyde or the liquid formalin used in the preservation of dead bodies is also illegally used in preservation of some foods such as frozen chicken/turkey.

 

Various health researches and researchers have confirmed that formaldehyde is a toxic chemical. Other foods though illegally preserved with formaldehyde include meat, vegetables, fruits. Regular consumption of foods preserved with such has been found to cause severe health problems. These range from internal burns -serious inflammatory effects, hormonal imbalances, organ damage such as kidney disease to cancer.

 According to the 

National Institutes of Health (NIH) – USA, formaldehyde, which is sometimes illegally added to food for preservation, can cause significant damage due to its high reactivity with proteins and nucleic acids in the body, which disrupts normal cell function. 

The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classifies formaldehyde as carcinogenic to humans. There are other myriad of health challenges linked to formaldehyde which include headaches, skin irritations and so on. 

According to NIH, there is formaldehyde which occurs naturally in small, trace amounts in many common foods (fruits, vegetables, fish, meat) as a result of normal metabolic processes. The human body also produces and metabolises formaldehyde naturally, and generally eliminates these low levels without harm. The real danger stems from added formaldehyde (formalin), which is used as an industrial chemical and embalming fluid, and is present in quantities far exceeding natural levels. Formaldehyde as a direct food preservative is already banned in many countries especially those in the European Union.

I am not sure if the use of formaldehyde in food preservation is banned  here in Nigeria. The food with usage of formaldehyde is usually imported frozen foods such as chicken and turkey especially those smuggled into the country. In 2006 thereabout, importation of  these was banned in Nigeria but it  has continued because  the demand for the frozen chickens and turkeys are so very high not just for parties but for individuals and households. 

These poultry birds needing so much preservation are produced outside the African continent and shipped frozen to West Africa. So the dealers need to keep them looking fresh  even though they are ‘over-dead’. 

Also,  perhaps as a result  of dodging customs  control  when bringing into Nigeria,  there could be delays during transportation. This would then result in the cold chain being disrupted. But the operators would have used  strong preservative, most likely toxic substance - formaldehyde so the products still look and scent nice. Unfortunately the preservative is capable of damaging health of regular  consumers.

SOLUTION

Don’t expect me to say don’t ever buy and eat such again when truth be told,  our local poultry industry does not yet provide viable alternative that is convenient –readily available, cost-effective with small sizes instead of whole chickens/turkeys  or preferable parts. 

 Over the years, I have asked  operators in the poultry sector severally “why can’t chickens and turkeys produced in the country be sold massively, in bit sizes as frozen food?”  So when consumers cannot afford or do not need at that point in time a whole bird, they can buy half or quarter or in kilograms- one kilogramme, half kilogramme. If produced in the country and stored frozen, they shouldn’t be ‘over-dead’ before reaching consumers. So there wouldn’t be need to use such a health-damaging chemical as formaldehyde – formalin, would there? 

I have come to understand the reasons many live poultry dealers wouldn’t  want to take the risks of slaughtering, dressing and freezing the chickens or turkeys in expectation of sale in my country Nigeria. In fact, even I, with all I  know about the health challenges of these imported chickens, last week, after some years of avoiding such purchases I bought such frozen chicken. They are more readily available than live chickens in most areas, they are convenient and relatively cheaper. 

I noticed few days afterwards that I was not feeling as energetic as I usually felt. I could still do some of my regular activities but not those very  heavy tasks that required the activation of  my super gecko- muscles!

Eating foods with such substances is likely major  reason so many people are not as strong as they should be. There were even some hours afterwards that standing straight caused me pains. I even noticed wrinkles  on my face and some strands of grey on my hair – I am not joking o. I  have discovered that the signs of aging are more pronounced after eating certain foods or taking certain drinks. 

I wouldn’t have minded the aging signs but it would give the impression that I am suffering so badly. Then concerned loved ones would attribute it to the farm work I do willingly in my mini-garden instead of the real culprit – toxic substances used in producing, processing or preserving most food and drinks. In fact, days later my body felt itchy and there were some blemishes for some days on my hitherto smooth skin. 

So it’s your choice – if it’s just signs of aging and not actually sickness that formaldehyde-preserved foods brings, maybe you don’t mind. In fact, there’s even option of heavy make-up witj use of foundation to cover up wrinkles and skin blemishes.

In case toxin or toxicant brings sickness, going to hospital may be more convenient. Just know the possible cause(s) so as not to continue perpetuating the health problem while receiving treatment and blaming the medical professionals. 

GOVERNMENT ROLE 

Rather than putting efforts on enforcing the ban, the government should direct efforts on making it possible for local chicken producers and/or processors to sell locally produced chickens in smaller quantities as frozen. 

I have sometimes urged live chicken sellers to slaughter a bird and sell half or a quarter  of it to me. But they would say what would then happen to the remaining if no one buys immediately. 

Frozen chicken sellers already selling the imported ‘over-dead’  frozen chickens/turkeys should be willing to accept and sell locally-produced poultry in bits as frozen foods. If there is massive publicity that frozen chicken/turkey sellers now have half or quarter locally-produced chickens/turkeys, surely there are consumers that would  prefer to buy such? 

Would there be people that would prefer the  ‘over-dead’ imported toxic  chickens/turkeys?

Dealers would no doubt complain of epileptic power supply as hindrance to preserving freshness of the locally-produced chickens. Maybe solar freezers can be adopted.

 There are opportunities for viable investments in making it more convenient, readily available and cost-effective (smaller quantities),to get locally-produced chickens/turkeys. 

As demand for the locally-produced chickens/turkeys  increase, please producers and processors, avoid the use of health-damaging growth-boosters and preservatives. People who produce/sell food and drinks that damage consumers’ health eventually lose out completely.

REMOVING, LIMITING SPREAD OF SNAKE VENOM IN THE BODY

To avoid  deaths from snake bites or from other animals with venoms, let's explore emergency stop-gap measures that can be taken.

The need for these measures stem  from the fact that the longer the waiting and movements, the higher chances of the toxins from the animal spreading in the affected person's body. 

Usually when individuals or households have packaged-bought antidote or remedy for such emergencies in  a First- Aid kit or box,  due to irregularity of use, when urgently needed, the packaged antidote may have expired or no longer as effective , if at all it was. 

There may also be delay in getting treated  or getting to hospital or health-care facility.  

If such an incident occurs to  oneself or to  loved one(s), do not panic- know that you can beat it. Praying is of course good as there may arise issues beyond human control.

IMMEDIATE STOP-GAP HEALTH MEASURES 

Apart from having a well-provisioned First Aid box or kit, there are some natural safe remedies to have at home, even in other places frequented

 

🤙Seeds from organic-grown  fruits  (preferably indigenous plants or plants not yet messed up) such as  seeds of pawpaw,  native chilli pepper, snake tomato (Trichosanthes cucumerina). It is commonly known as the snake gourd, and in Nigeria, it is referred to as "elejo tomato" or "tomati elejo".

🤙Try to grow some plants. Even if land is not available, you can use pots, buckets, sacks or drums. If you grow tree crops, they may not grow to fruiting stage in small containers but you can harvest the leaves for natural remedies. Whether or not there are emergencies, you can  use these to make herbal teas or drinks and take regularly to boost natural immunity.

IN CASE OF SNAKE OR OTHER ANIMAL BITE EMERGENCIES 

🤙Move  quickly away from the animal. You may have available pepper powder to spray in case of more attacks from the animal.

🤙Limit the  spread of the venom or toxin  at the bite point.  If it is possible, you can first tie cloth or rope above and below the bite point especially if it is at the limbs. If not possible to tie the spot or it would take too long, then swab out the toxins. Try to press the venom out like pressing out puss from a pimple or boil but dont use bare hands. Get freshly-plucked leaves to remove that. If not readily available, wear gloves or cover hand(s) with nylon or cloth to reward the toxins.

Some of the toxins may still spread though the body but it should be far much less if you are able to press out, the toxins effectively.  

🤙Pluck fresh edible leaves, chew and swallow.

🤙If you have seeds from organic grown fruits, take few of the seeds, chew and swallow.

🤙Having minimised, soaked  or nullified the toxic effects, you may go to the hospital or to qualified health care professional for treatment. 

🤙Take along  water, edible leaves, seeds, activated charcoal. If you feel a surge, drink the water and/or chew or shed and swallow  the leaves.

🤙With considerable quality of freshly-plucked organic-grown edible leaves in your system, toxins or venom ahould not overpower the life-giving force  of nutrients in the leaves being supplied to your cells. This is because if your cells are receiving life from the leaves and/or seeds, the deadening quality in the venom cannot overpower your body cells. 

🤙What applies to toxins in food  is somewhat similar to what  applies to toxins in the venom from snake bite – just that snake bite is more serious  because the toxins go direct into the bloodstream while food first undergoes digestion before the toxins are unleashed and absorbed by the blood.  Hence reason with snake bite, you need to take the necessary measures as quickly as possible. 

Rather than do nothing if there is delay in getting to hospital or delay in getting treatment, take these stop-gap measures. 

You may feel discomfort but  taking consiserable amount of pure leaves and/or seeds will weaken the effects of toxins.

  The advantage of seeds is that you can keep seeds inside the home so you may not need to go outside to pluck leaves if such an incident happens during the night or the garden is a considerable distanxe - remember to limit movements so the toxins won't spread fast in your bloodstream. 

 Just ensure the seeds are well dried. Keep in a iry place in a container preferably a sieve cloth so they would be well aerated. 

Leaves and seeds are very safe because they are food substances. Just pray very well that thete won’t be mistakes in the medical treatment you receive subsequently. 

Also taking drinks made from pawpaw leaves, lemon grass  can also help bring some relief.

🤙Activated Charcoal - since snake bite venom goes straight into the blood and activated charcoal ingessted does not get absorbed by the blood, it won't really be effective as a remedy or antidote for snake bite venom.

 But  if activated charcoal is ingested at such a time, what it can do is that if there are toxics or toxicants  in food or drink the affected person recently had (which is possible these modern times as most processed and even some fresh foodstuffs have from chemical fertiizers, pesticides), activated charcoal would adsorb some if not all the toxic substances in the food or drink before elements in the food or drink are absorbed by the blood.

 So this should reduce the toxic load in the blood which is very vital at such a time a person is experiencing the effect of snake bite venom in the bloodstream.

So while taking activated charcoal at such a time is still in order and can be an indirect stop-gap measure, it is not a direct  antidote for snake bite venom. 

If there is delay in medical treatment., rather than do nothing, organic- grown leaves and chewable seeds of organic-grown edible fruits can be stop-gap measures to reduce, even nullify toxic effects of the snake-bite venom

ARE YOU TOO RICH TO FARM?

Adam was the first Chief Executive Officer (CEO) on  earth.

Gen.2.19 - And out of the ground the Lord God formed every [wild] beast and living creature of the field and every bird of the air and brought them to Adam to see what he would call them; and whatever Adam called every living creature, that was its name. 

Isnt' that the work of a Chief wxceutive? 😆 Certainly not a day (24 hours)job. It probably took months, if not years to name the countless number of animals in existence.

But  Adam was also into gardening - that was the first  work the Lord God gave him to do - why?Gen.2.15 - And the Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to tend and guard and keep it.

Dear billionaires, multi-millionaires, millionaires, multi-thousandnaires, thousandnaires, hundrednaires, draw wisdom from the answer to the question Why?

If you dont, very huge parts of your money will go or keep going into 'panel-beating' your body to function well and the money may still not give you truly good health or save your life from pains or diseases leading to death.

PART THREE: ILL-HEALTH, DEATHS MAINLY CAUSED BY NON-FOOD SUBSTANCES

A very possible major reason some people taken for medical treatment get worse or die is likely due to toxins overload after medication.

Unknown to the sick person  and their loved ones, the level of toxins in the person’s body is already high from seemingly normal food and drinks mainly. It may also be from previous  medications, body care products, air pollution, substance abuse.

Before administering medication, the health care professional should of course find out if the patient has been taking some medications. If yes, that will be put into consideration before or if at all, more medication(s) are given to the patient. Hence reason, self medication particularly with manufactured medicines or drugs is not wise – the level of non-food substances you are be taking in may be too high for your body to handle.

But who expects non-food substances which are toxic to the body to be present in food and drinks?

It is the presence of non-food substances that make appropriate dosage absolutely compulsory for administering most medications. When a person’s  body that has  high level of toxins from normal, even seemingly healthy food  receives more toxins as side effects of medication taken, it may  be too toxic for the body

Toxins in body from food + toxins in body from medications = Toxins overload.

It is painful but truth be told, toxins overload can worsen the health condition or even lead to death.

You may argue that those non-food substances which are toxic are only present in very small quantities in food. Really? These days you will be shocked at how much the non-food substances in the form of chemical fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides,  processing agents or process-aiding substances, preservatives etc are used in food production, processing, preservation because producers direly want to make money.

But even if these toxic substances are used in very small quantities, food unlike medication is something you take regularly -daily, in fact, two or more times if not fasting.

Oh! Oh! Let’s not forget, some  people are now having to take medications daily or regularly. So toxins build up in many human bodies is almost inescapable.

SOLUTIONS
While there is option of detoxification – removing the toxins from the body, the appropriate thing for intelligent humans to do is STOP the use of toxins in what goes into the human body. Refusal to stop it is as good as saying it’s okay to be poisoned regularly since we can take anti-poisons. Are Human Beings okay?

You may then say until we are able to stop the use of toxic substances in food and medications,  for now, let’s look to detoxification-aren’t there organic products that  can detoxify the body and get rid of the toxins? In fact, aren’t the liver and kidneys superb body organs already doing the work of Detoxification?

The liver and kidneys that are constantly bombarded with toxic substances from all sides? – food, drinks, medications, body care products, air pollution apart from harsh substance abuse which hopefully many do not directly use though may suffer the effects from users.

If  humanity continues this way especially with food production, people’s liver and kidneys will continue to face threats of dysfunction. Are we not already seeing the effects? Isn’t it heart-breaking that even little children are having issues with their body organs? Mind you, even lots of other diseases cancers, arthritic pains, HBP, heart attack, Alzheimer, eyesight problems, skin problems etc are mainly due to toxic build-up  as a result of the body not being always able to  expel all toxins

🤙Detoxification
An industry is already booming around Detoxification. Lots of individuals, groups and companies are now making Detoxification products. But know what?  If  humans don’t fix this issue of toxic substances in food production, the same harmful side effects being experienced in  many manufactured medications would start happening with detoxification products. It is simple – how can what is supposed to remove toxins from the body while removing  deposit some toxins it also has?

Some producersl beat their chest and say their detoxification products are 100 percent organic agro materials. Okay, its possible. But how can they guarantee that they will always have the supply of these organic-grown agro-raw materials from farm(s) without the use of harsh substances in producing or preserving them?

To guarantee that, the product producers will have to be involved in backward integration- farming of the needed agro-raw materials or have  strict compliance contracts with farmers to produce for them.

It is okay if you can get and  regularly afford fully natural organic grown detoxification products. They should contain only food substances so you can take them to clear your system of toxins especially before medication. But be very careful in making that choice.

🤙Pure plant parts
But your best bet are fresh farm or garden grown crops produced as much as possible  according to the natural order – the way God the  Creator established. Though there are producers or sellers that will assure you that the foodstuffs they offer are organic-grown, it is not always guaranteed or fully-guaranteed.

When I  used to read the bible story of how God put the first humans in a garden, I didn’t actually understand the significance. It is in recent years that the importance began to really dawn on me. It is not just to meet food needs, the real solution to human health and well-being is from what grows from the soil and everything that NATURALLY aids that growth.

You are safer detoxifying with pure, undefiled leaves, stems; roots, seeds.  The most efficacious so far from my personal experience, studies and findings are seeds.

If the seeds of any fruit  are toxic,  it is  due to the way the crop has been produced over the years likely with synthetic elements or compounds. It may also be due to  pollution in the place particularly land they have been produced.

I’ve been fortunate to grow an indigenous fruit in my mini-garden that I don’t think has been manipulated by science  -messed up by humans.  The seeds are not palatable but so very efficacious in toxins removal.
With the discovery of these seeds as toxins removal, I started taking again some foodstuffs and processed food that I have been avoiding. When I start feeling toxins in my body afterwards, I would take two or three of the seeds.

I literally notice or should I say perceive as the toxins are broken down in my system and their movement through the body during which there may be some mild itching. Then after being expelled through urination and other pathways , there would be so very much relief.

This is why - Remember:
Toxins in – Toxins Out = Relief or Good health.

MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE
Some days ago, I cooked with packaged tomato paste . I still wonder if some foods are deliberately. Also, with some commercially produced  fresh tomatoes  some times, same horrid feel of toxins.

After the tomato paste cooked food consumption, I felt  so very terrible from toxins deposit, so I kept taking the seeds  (food substance) until my system cleared. The advantage of a naturally   grown  detoxifier devoid of toxins in itself is that I don't have to worry about overdose- just  ensure to eat very well  and rest well.

The following day the level of body strength, vigour, vitality I felt was surprising  even to me. I carried cutlass and started cutting woody parts of trees in my mini-garden as part of pruning  garden plants and to use for making activated charcoal.

I thought I would be so very tired  afterwards but instead I went inside the house and did some major cleaning- practically worked all day and wasn’t even  too tired at night.

🤙How pure seeds work
I am not sure the seeds contain any extra special nutrient – what I think the pure seed does is to help the body break down food speedily and get the substances in the food to do the needful and/or get out.

Toxic substances are in most highly- commercialised foods in the world we live in. So when pure seeds or leaves  efficiently/superbly break down what one has eaten, the nutrients can be easily absorbed by the cells of the body and the toxins can more easily leave the body.

With the toxins out and the cells energised, my feminine body with just the super-gecko muscles I have  started doing work like a very muscular man. So toxins-removal using natural means is the best.

🤙Future efficacious medications
Would you believe if I told you that it would become very lucrative to grow crops specifically for use as medications in the  medical field using certain natural techniques?

The efficacy of medications would be determined by the production on the farms. Those would be  highly effective  medications in restoring to full health with no disastrous  side effects.

PART TWO: ILL-HEALTH, DEATHS MAINLY CAUSED BY NON-FOOD SUBSTANCES

Preventing  premature deaths or recovering from any ill-health which emanates within the body  can be achieved by removing the non-food substances (toxins).

This is because non-food substances (toxins) are the main causes of ill-health  apart from  accidents or physical attacks which are obviously outward causes. Even with those, if the affected person’s body is toxins-free – in very good health, it may help with recovery or prevent death.

This is if  there isn’t instant death or very deliberate attempts being made to end the person’s life. This is a matter to explore another day.  We can x-ray together why a person who has been physically attacked or involved in ghastly accident  and definitely expected to die, instead recovers partially or fully.

It is still the goodness of God and answers to  prayers  - miraculous work of God already inbuilt  into every human body originally from creation.  But certain factors may work for or against that body’s ability to recover.

Back to ill-health from within, Part One of this  write-up already highlighted major ways non-food substances get into many human bodies.

In current times due to the world system,  completely preventing non-food substances or toxins  from getting into your body is almost inescapable. It may be possible if you can relocate to a very remote island or forest  that humans do not yet have any presence at all.

Since you are living within human habitations, you can only reduce the toxic load entering  your body, not completely stop it for now.  The more you can reduce  toxins entry, the better. Note the toxins possible means of entry again– through food and drinks including water, medications, air pollution, body care products, wounds, use of harsh substances.
 
Every time non-food i.e. toxic substances enter the body, they predispose that body to ill-health especially if they stay too long  and regularly enter that body. But you may or may not fall sick due to certain factors.

Before delving into some  simple solutions i.e. very effective natural means of removing toxins from the body, let x-ray how toxins in the body can affect health care delivery.

Most manufactured drugs for reasons best known to those in the medical field contain non-food substances in addition to agricultural materials. What  actually effects the cure is the agricultural materials i.e. food substances in the medication.

The food substances are the nutrients  which normally should  assist the body to recover. A human body has or should have inbuilt ability to recover. So the nutrients in more concentrated form which are the food substances in the medication should assist the body to recover faster than it would have done on its own.

A reason medicine is important is that in a very sick person, death may occur if the body doesn’t get that assistance – getting the nutrient(s) needed  for particular purpose(s) in more concentrated form or quantity.

But as many medications also contain non-food substances due to production process or for preservation, there must be specified dosage. This is because the quantity of the non-food substances in the medication must not be too high or exceed certain limits in that person’s body.

Remember that non-food substances in a human body are toxic. So if the quantity getting into a body per time exceeds certain limits, it may become too toxic for that body, worsening the health condition or even causing death. So the health care professional has to give the right dosage. 

But why must those non-food substances which cause negative side effects be used in the production of any medication? Why??? Isn’t it possible to produce medicine or manufacture drugs completely without substance(s)  that can be toxic to the users?

Sighs! Please don’t ask me – I just happen to be a local scientist  with a predestined divine call -  God-given mandate to write or communicate  which I dare not run away from.  So ask those in the medical field.

But know what? Even with the inclusion of these substances in lots of manufactured medications, due to the agricultural materials, usually, the medications have been  working in helping the body restore good health. For more details, you may refer to this two-part write-up: https://farmcafeng.blogspot.com/2025/10/part-two-why-manufactured-drugs-may.html?m=1

THE GAME CHANGER IN HEALTHCARE
But the drive towards expanding agricultural food production  has been a very major game changer in health care. How?

One of the major things now affecting the effectiveness of those medications in restoring health is this:  the same questionable thing being done in the manufacturing of most drugs or.medicines  is now also being done in agricultural production. What is that? It is the use of non-food substances to produce plants and animals for food, even for medications.

What has been said over and over again about non-food substances? They are toxic inside the human body!

Why then are more and more producers of fresh foodstuffs, in addition to producers of processed foods using substances that are toxic in food production knowing it can harm the consumers?

Good question! But as you ask the food producers, you must also ask the medical professionals  same question about medicine – manufactured drugs.

While we try to get the answer to the question from the practitioners in the two fields of science – AGRICULTURE and HEALTH, let’s understand the implication of the non-food substances to human bodies – our lives!

SCENARIO
A person who unknowingly has been feeding on food  produced with toxic substances goes or is taken  for medical treatment. 

The medical practitioner may give the  appropriate regulated dosage of the required medicine so that the non-food substances which can cause negative side effects do not get beyond a certain level in the patient’s body.

But the person already has high levels of toxic substances  in the body from simple regular feeding – even food normally believed or expected to be healthy.

You may read this for more details: https://farmcafeng.blogspot.com/2025/10/our-foods-becoming-like-manufactured.html?m=1

What do you think can happen when the toxic load from the medicine and the toxic load from feeding ‘jam’ each other in the person’s body?
