THE DEFINITION OF MADNESS
This week I received from the internet, on a social media platform, a picture of a man walking through a paddock planted up with vegetables.
The caption read ‘We are the only species that sprays toxic chemicals on to our food to prevent other creatures from eating it; then we go ahead and eat it ourselves? That must be the definition of Madness?’
It really makes one think and say yep thats what happens commercially to the crops of vegetables that we then consume now days.
In some home grown produce also gardeners use toxic chemicals then later eat the food which will have residues of the chemicals used.
Forget the withholding period which only applies to that period of time when the level of chemicals are at their highest residue.
Two ways the chemicals get into the plant, firstly absorbed through the leaves and secondly wash down into the soil with rain or watering to be taken up by the roots.
Plants that grow naturally in Nature normally suffer little damage from insects feeding on the plants and do not normally have any plant diseases.
Why? Well in natures a plant will be found more randomly not in groups of many, such as in a paddock full of cabbages.
Thus a plant is surrounded by many other types of plants and that helps to keep them hidden from insects. That same technique can be applied to your vegetables by growing several different vegetables all together mixed up.
Also the soil life in nature is rich which helps make the plant healthy and less desirable to insects.
Bear in mind that insect pests and plant diseases are Nature’s Cleaners.
It is their job to find sickly plants and remove them to make way for healthy plants.
Plants communicate with each other when they are growing in a natural situation with rich soil life.
Thus if a plant gets attacked by insects or diseases it sends out a Mayday and all plants in the area take notice and start producing their defense mechanisms to reduce or prevent damage to themselves.
(We wrote about how aspirin spray can be used to initiate plant’s defense systems and have the plants on high alert.)
So when and how did it all go wrong?
Firstly realise that Plants need phosphate (the primary usable form of phosphorus) because it is a critical macronutrient required for photosynthesis, root development, and genetic structure.
Phosphorus deficiency limits energy transfer and cell division, resulting in the plants typically exhibiting a dark, dull blue-green color, with older leaves developing distinct reddish, purplish, or bronze tints,
particularly on the undersides. Fruit and seed yields are significantly reduced.
Primary Symptoms
Discolored Foliage: Leaves often become dark green and develop a reddish, purplish, or bronze pigmentation (due to anthocyanin buildup), usually starting on older, lower leaves.
Stunted Development: Plants appear spindly with shorter stems and smaller leaves because phosphorus is vital for cell proliferation.
Poor Root Systems: Because phosphorus is crucial for early root formation, deficient plants often have shallow, weak root systems, making them highly susceptible to drought.
Delayed Maturity: Flowering, fruit set, and grain filling are frequently delayed or diminished, leading to poor seed and fruit yields.
Necrosis: In severe or advancing cases, older leaves will curl, develop necrotic (dead) brown spots, and drop prematurely.
Natural Reactive Rock Phosphate is the answer to provide the phosphorus that plants need but even powdered down it takes along time in the soil broken down by microbes for the plants to be able uptake it.
It was discovered that reactive rock phosphate can be quickly broken down with acids such as sulfuric acid and this made the phosphorus readily available to plants.
Thus we invented ‘Super Phosphate’
Problem is that its acidic and that kills the soil life.
Lack of soil life weakens the plants and makes them sickly which brings in Natures Cleaners, pests and diseases to take them out.
(Wallys BioPhos is broken down reactive rock phosphate through a special process using microbes instead of acids and actually increases the microbes populations in the soil.)
Many gardeners have found and reported a light sprinkling of Wallys BioPhos every few months can really perk up their garden plants. Try it if you don’t already do that.
Now do you understand the vicious circle that has been created?
Soil life is harmed, plants get sickly, pests and diseases attack them and we spray toxic chemicals onto the plants to keep them looking good, no holes or blemishes.
The chemical sprays used further destroy the beneficial soil life and worm populations.
Animals (stock) and ourselves eat the plants with toxic residues in them and we also eat the stock that has been eating the sickly, toxic plants.
Our health declines and we resort to pharmaceutical remedies to help relieve the health issues (but not cure them as there is no money in cures)
Thus you have become part of the Madness and suffer accordingly over time.
If we detox regularly we will slow down the rapid aging process that the toxic food chain causes.
If we grow as much as able our own healthy food without the harmful fertilisers and chemical sprays we will stay younger looking longer, be much more physically healthy and mentally capable.
The modern slave works to earn money to buy unhealthy food and cause medical problems and expensives.
Back in the 50’s and 60’s our food chain commercially grown (and much of our vegetables were home grown) without superphosphate but with Real Blood & Bone and animal manures.
The sulphur in our food chain from Real Blood & Bone was a daily natural detox as sulphur helps carry oxygen to our cells and they then dispel any chemicals/toxins they collect.
Sulfur-containing nutrients in the diet are genuinely involved in cellular “oxygen-related” energy biology and in detox/antioxidant pathways.
Sulfur is needed for glutathione production and other sulfur-dependent reactions, which help cells neutralize reactive chemicals and manage cellular clearance processes.
Thus healthier, anti-aging all by using Real Blood & Bone in your vegetable garden and if not able to do so then start daily taking of organic sulphur, MSM.

Stop the madness and get sulphur back into your body. Be Healthier and Stay Younger Longer.
