OUTDECO PRIVACY SCREENING INNOVATION

MD Brick has the best prices in Australia on Outdeco garden screens. You can turn your outdoor area into the space you have always wanted it to be by creating a screen feature wall. Hardwood privacy screens are perfect for hiding that ugly fence (without a complete rebuild or a neighbourly dispute), or you can simply extend the height so you have real privacy from peering eyes. Incorporating Outdeco screens into your outdoor “lifestyle area” allows you to define your entire backyard. These screens can be used to divide areas in your yard to form a private oasis or they can perform as a backdrop to your garden foliage borders. If you get harsh morning or afternoon sunlight, the decorative designs of these panels will cut out the glare and create stunning cast shadows which will generate a pleasant and natural ambient light. Available in three complimenting sizes of 1200x600, 1800x600 and 1800x1200. With a range of 60% to 90% block out, these screens are the perfect choice as a feature or to provide you with the privacy or shade you are looking for. Visit MD Brick at 19 Bryant Dr, Tuggerah to view the full range or phone 1300 884 363.

Vertical gardens or Wallgarden systems are adding a new dimension for gardeners. The novel design of Wallgarden’s modular system allows for a robust wall of foliage that conceals planter modules, which contain much more growing medium than other vertical garden products. A great weekend project, DIY, simple, low cost and readily available. Walls of plants form a leafy screen that provide an attractive feature, privacy from neighbours, insulation for buildings and shade, while reducing noise, wind chill, pollution and rainwater run-off. Plants tend to grow better on north and west facing-walls, leading to reduced energy demands for heating and cooling where it is most needed. Vertical spaces also extend new possibilities for gardeners keen to create a rainforest habitat spilling down walls or a mix of native vegetation resembling a coastal cliff face. The trickle-down effect of this design feature recycles the irrigation between plants, with unused water from one plant quenching the plant below, which saves on water requirements and supports long- term growth. More than 40 plant species proven to excel in vertical environments are identified on the Wallgarden website at www.wallgarden.com.au shop online now.

What’s Down Under? By Guy Thornycroft (ProFlooring)

I play the bagpipes, so that question gets asked all the time but when it comes to what goes under the floor you choose, the answer is more important. Whether you are laying Laminate, Bamboo, Cork or Timber there are several important factors that must be right. Preparation of your sub floor is the first consideration. Renovators are frequently facedwith different levels in the house caused by different old floor coverings. For example tiles in the Kitchen and Carpet in the Living area. Common sense dictates your new floor covers all these areas at the same height without ramps. Companies are emerging that specialise in just preparing your sub floor. Alternatives include raising the lower levels with ply. Seek advice on what is best for your place. The next challenge is to get the sub floor level. Manufacturers’ recommendations are that flooring be installed on a subfloor with variation in levelness (not smoothness) no greater than 3mm over a 3m span. Failure to do this will result in soft spots and possible

creaking. Low spots are filled with Ardit (think self levelling concrete) or Arditex (a latex based Ardit) to smooth any imperfections which would affect the installation and subsequent performance of the floor covering. The installer could also plane and sand the high spots of a timber subfloor to reduce the need for levelling compound. Next comes an appropriate underlay. This provides a water barrier and a smooth surface to lay on. It can also add significant sound proofing. In recent months, the European Federation of Producers of Laminate Flooring (EPLF), the most recognised and respected body on laminate flooring in the world, released a technical bulletin regarding underlay specifications. Of important note was a new “minimum benchmark” for moisture vapour transmission (the ability of subfloor borne moisture vapour to transmit through the underlay and into the underside of the flooring). The report in question specifies that all underlays should reach an SD

Value ≥ 75. The higher the SD Value, the better the underlay is at blocking moisture vapour. This can eliminate the potential for cupping, peaking, noisy floors and excessive expansion as a result of rising moisture vapour from the subfloor.

THE EXPERT

By Geoff Garlinge

Q: I’m totally over dragging myself out of bed every morning and never really feeling great day in and out for years now. I know I can’t keep going like this and expect to be well. Looking in the mirror these days, it’s hard to believe that I used to be extremely fit and full of energy. Now that person feels like someone I used to know and can hardly even remember. I’m horrified to have just been diagnosed with high blood pressure and I’m not even close to 50. According to the doctor my liver is also evidently not too flash either. So I’m finally ready to do whatever it takes before all my wheels fall off, but need some direction. I’ve tried to go the natural way on my own, but the net is a never ending minefield of conflicting information and Dr Google has nearly driven me crazy. Without any real plan to run with, I just keep going in circles trying different diets, pills, potions and supplements that all haven’t worked anyway. I’m also now taking medication for type 2 diabetes and even though I hate it, have been told I’ll never be able to get off it again. Is this really true and what can I do to go forward instead of further backwards? I’m extremely worried more drugs will be prescribed to me soon and definitely don’t want to go there. Please help. A: You’re understandably sorely disappointed, as are most people that follow the typical western way of life, until finally forced to undertake a whole lifestyle change. Indeed nothing short of a complete mind & body shift is required in order to achieve sustainable wellness in our modern high-tech society so sadly saturated with sickness. As I often say... diets fail – but lifestyle wins. Of course, this doesn’t at all preclude the commonsense What’s my Alternative? Believing prevention is better than cure and acting on that belief daily can result in optimal quality of life. As global knowledge increases and corresponding awareness grows at an astounding rate, those awakened by it (as well as via suffering chronic sickness, pain & general poor health) have become disillusioned with the patently obvious failure of pharmaceuticals to deliver promised Health & Wellbeing in the 21st century. As a result, multitudes now search the internet daily for Natural alternatives, as they turn away in droves from toxic & “band-aid” drugs. Of course there is a time where certain medications are relevant and logic must prevail in these instances. Nevertheless, in Australia the majority of the population still believe the basic lie that drugs actually contain healing

heaps of VBChia) Beside the fact that it tastes totally amazing, it’s also far better for you... and you’ll be escaping the toxic pesticide residues etc that have majorly contributed to your present condition. Research has shown it’s possible to reduce pesticide levels in the body by up to 90% in just one week by eating Organic food. • Remove all processed & sugar-filled pseudo foods from your pantry – be ruthless & you will win! • Ramp up Green Alkalizers – The rare genuine ones are Sun Chlorella, ML Spirulina & Green Fusion • Enjoy Spiralz Organic fermented veggies regularly- delicious nutritious enzyme-filled Probiotic delights • Get plenty of negative ions via waves on rocks + beach-walking to enhance mental & physical health • Take 1 teaspoon Vitamin C & Maqui Berry Activate Powder in Pure Cherry Juice morning & night, 3 x 1 Kyolic, 2 x 2 Nature’s Goodness Propolis and 2 x 2 Dr Cabot’s Livatone Plus capsules • Sprinkle Golden Kelp on hot & cold meals – energising source of iodine & minerals, great for BP too • Cook & spread with Hexane-free Organic Coconut Oil– works on insulin resistance in fat & muscles++ • Include good fats & Oils that heal...Organic Avocado, Flaxseed, Walnuts, Hempseed, Salmon Oil • Activate high grade Turmeric. Heat in non- stick pan = 12X stronger Then add black pepper = +20X • STAY HYDRATED - minimum 1.5litres pure filtered water daily + Coconut Probiotic Concentrate, Red Clover & Hawthorn Tea – detoxifies & cleanses, supports nervous system, regulates BP++ active ingredients wonderfully internet marketed – yet another was actually an anabolic steroid posing as a multivitamin!). It’s certainly true that a little bit of knowledge is dangerous, especially in relation to one’s Health. Nothing replaces experience that comes via long term collaborative research between like-minded advocates that are genuinely dedicated to pursuing optimal Natural Health via practical application & observation over multiple decades. This is what allows us to work together in order to offer practical tangible help based on logic, reason, science and common sense – which is not too common these days☺. The good news is that dynamic sustainable Health & Wellbeing is actually achievable for people of all ages who exercise wisdom to “crowd out the bad” by committing to a reality based Organic & Natural lifestyle.

logic that requires a genuine balanced Natural & Organic wholefood diet to underpin a balanced functional & sustainable lifestyle. The majority may rule in a democracy. However, failing to make Health your no.1 priority by following the crowd down the slippery slope to the inevitable nursing home disaster is really akin to madness. You’re certainly right to be concerned about the introduction of additional medications, which will surely come without implementing the shift. I recommend you contact the office to request a copy of my article titled “Type2 Diabetes – The Modern Day Epidemic” which will give you further direction in this particular area, including great information relating to my close eminent Chinese Doctor colleagues, who are at the forefront in the field of traditional & modern integrative Herbal Medicine. Please note that in line with my responsible duty of care, I never advocate radical withdrawal of pharmaceuticals. Rather it is pertinent that we run the relevant Nutraceuticals/Herbal formulas together with the meds (another area where Dr Google fails) usually for 2-3months. Then in consultation with your GP, subsequently gradually withdraw them, whilst constantly monitoring your BP & other levels. Following are some guidelines for you to follow (and indeed for others who wish to enjoy vibrant health) to regain and take control of your Health & Wellbeing on a daily basis... • Start each day with Jarrah Gold Bee Pollen (No.1 Superfood) + Fresh Royal jelly (Supertonic) – Moisten mouth, chew Pollen well before including FRJ (both held in mouth for best sublingual absorption) • EAT REAL FOOD! (80% fruit & veg, fish/LI chicken/duck sparingly, nuts, seeds incl. etc. The following individual’s experience epitomises the typical frustrating struggle in the quest to find the balance to enjoy a vibrant, functional & sustainable life. The online journey leads multitudes to self- diagnose & self-medicate without any real consultation. This practice is sadly perilous & even tragic in some cases, especially via importing supposed Natural Health products from the USA... where the operative word is not only caution, but furthermore poses real danger (of 29 products tested, none contained absolutely any of the professed properties, rather than understanding that in general medications simply mask real health problems to allow people to continue to make wrong lifestyle choices that are not really sustainable – and so the inevitable terrible end of life for toomany is Alzheimer’s/ stroke/paralysis/crippling arthritis etc.

Combating Portion Distortion T he amount of food we eat and drink plays an important role in our daily energy balance as well as our overall health. Not only has the quality of our diet changed over the years with more processed foods higher in salt, sugar, saturated fat and chemical additives sneaking in, but so too has the quantity. Our humble dinner plate has gradually been increasing in size over the past two decades, and little by little we are mindlessly sneaking in extra mouthfuls at each meal. Trying to overcome all your bad eating habits at once is very difficult and will most likely result in failure. In fact many ‘diets’ people follow in an attempt to get ‘healthy’ and lose weight usually provide short-term results but are difficult to sustain with most people regaining weight within one to five years, often with negative psychological consequences. However, choosing nutritious and mindful portion sizes of key food groups can be an effective tool in fighting ‘portion distortion’ and improving your overall health. Here are our top tips to overcoming portion distortion: 1. Reduce the size of your plates and bowls Research has consistently shown that we tend to overeat when using bigger plates and bowls compared to smaller ones. This is because we have a tendency to keep filling up our plates until they look ‘full’ and therefore overestimate how much we need 2. Eat mindfully Mindful eating is the opposite of mindless eating and has been shown to reduce overeating and binge eating. Mindful eating techniques include eating small amounts of food every three hours, checking in with your hunger levels prior to eating, being present and away from distractions whilst eating, eating slowly and paying attention to the meal in front of you, and stopping eating before you are full. 3. Be portion savvy Our perception of an ideal serving size of food tends to become skewed over time and when we get used to seeing a certain amount

them raw, steamed or lightly stir-fried. Lean Protein (100g meat/chicken/ fish/tofu, 2 eggs, 1 cup legumes = 1 serve) Adults should aim for around 2 1 /2- 3 serves of lean protein per day to help with satiety and fullness. A serving of any meat, chicken or fish should be about 120g (raw) and around the width and thickness of your palm . Quality proteins to include in your diet include lean chicken, turkey, lamb, beef, pork, kangaroo and fish. For vegetarians a serve would equate to 100g of tofu, two eggs or a cup of lentils and pulses. Carbohydrates (1-2 slices bread, 1 /2 to 1 cup cooked = 1 serve) Contrary to popular belief, carbohydrates are not fattening but they do provide the brain with a steady supply of fuel, help keep us full between meals, provide fibre for optimal gut health and provide muscles with energy during exercise. It is however important to eat them in amounts suited to your energy requirement. Generally, 1 /2 -1 cup of cooked, starchy carbohydrates, grains or legumes is all you need to fill your quarter-plate portion. Try wholegrain and low to medium GI varieties which are minimally processed and therefore retain their nutrient content. These include brown, basmati or doongara rice, quinoa, cous cous, sweet potato, corn, millet, wheat, amaranth, whole rolled oats, barley, buckwheat and wholegrain breads, pastas and cereals.

of food on our plate, we feel we need to eat it all to be satisfied. Using a measuring cup or spoon to serve rice and pasta or portions of cookedmeat may be a good idea to recalibrate your portion sizes. 4. Take your time Eating fast or on the run often leads to overeating as we lose touch of our hunger and fullness signals. Allow yourself at least 20-30 minutes to eat a meal away from distractions such as the TV or driving the car. Research shows that eating quickly is associated with weight and total daily energy (calorie) intake. 5. Practice healthy plate portions Before you dish up your plate, try and visualize what a balanced plate looks like (see below). Aim to make half of your main meal with either vegetables or salad, followed by a learn serve of protein, a serve of slow burning carbohydrates and a hint of fat. This will help with nutrient balance and portion control. Together these food groups will leave you feeling satisfied. 6. Check in with your hunger levels It may take between 10-30 minutes for your stomach to tell your brain that it has had enough food. Sit and wait before you decide to dig in for seconds. Sharing a meal whilst socialising with friends or family is a great way to slow down the eating process and help us recognize our satiety signals. Main meals are all about maximizing nutrition with the right balance of foods whilst staying within our energy(calorie) budget. Work on getting the balance right by aiming for these proportions: Aim for at least 5 serves of non-starchy vegetables and/or salad per day. This group should make up approximately 50% or more of your meal. Plant foods are nutrient dense- meaning they’re packed full of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and fibre (filling power) and contain very few calories. Choose a variety of textures and colours and aim to retain their nutrient content by consuming Veggies & Salad (1 cup salad or 1/2 cup veggies = 1 serve)
