livin' that life!

Science has confirmed that a weekend spent forest bathing can increase the activity and number of disease fighting cells in the immune system by as much as 80 percent with benefits that can last for an entire month.

The challenge is significant. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency the average American spends approximately 90 percent of their life indoors a habit that contributes to growing health problems.

In our screen filled and high stress world a centuries old Japanese practice supported by rigorous modern research offers a simple and effective natural solution. For more than two decades Dr. Qing Li an immunologist at Nippon Medical School has studied Shinrin yoku also known as forest bathing. His work has translated the calming experience of being in nature into measurable biological effects.

Dr. Li has demonstrated that trees release phytoncides antimicrobial volatile organic compounds that form part of the forests natural defense system. When people inhale these compounds during walks in the forest the chemicals enter the bloodstream. This process reduces stress hormones and helps shift the body from a chronic fight or flight state into a restorative mode.

The physiological benefits are both powerful and remarkably long lasting. Dr. Lis research shows that exposure to phytoncides significantly boosts the number and activity of natural killer cells. These white blood cells are essential for destroying virus infected cells and tumor cells. A three day two night forest bathing trip can increase natural killer cell activity by up to 80 percent. These protective effects do not disappear immediately upon returning to daily life but can persist for up to a month.

This evidence makes a strong scientific case for incorporating regular time in nature as an important element of preventive health care.

@WesternLensman If they ratify the pandemic treaty...

@RealAlexJones Imagine, if it took for example 4 nano particles to build a poison that was far more lethal than COVID. Separate the 4 parts into everyday items we use, when they meet they create lethal nano-machines and it's never detected in anything it was in.

@truthscant @RealCandaceO This is when things will get spicy.

@radianweapons Did you guys stop producing this?

@stephenkruiser The list of people who obey gun laws that were involved in this shooting and will be effected by this bullshit is as follows:

[Mathew J. Smith @Devalchemist]

@LilNasX Hybrid hahahaha perfect.

[Mathew J. Smith @Devalchemist]

@POTUS Witch part of that addresses the people causing the problems? This sounds like a bunch of anti-gun shit taking advantage of dead kids. 😠

[Mathew J. Smith @Devalchemist]

@tedwheeler Let me guess. Instead of tackling the people that cause the violence, this a shit attempt at rallying against guns instead of the real problem?
