Leverage Expenses W/Out Compromising Quality  Ep. #280, Lee'o Whisenant, Old Ironsides Construction

Tired of not having good treatment options available for Hashimoto’s? If so, I have some good news for you. 

Outside of traditional treatments like thyroid medication, there are some incredibly powerful natural options that have been shown in some research studies to help. 

One of the most potent is known as nigella sativa. 

I’m going to use nigella sativa and black seed oil almost interchangeably in this video but here’s the difference: 

Nigella sativa is the plant that produces black seeds and black seeds can be cold pressed to produce black seed oil. 

The active ingredients in nigella sativa can be found in both black seeds and black seed oil so it’s very likely that taking any of these 3 may provide benefits. 

One study that looked at nigella sativa found the following: 

1. It had a pro-thyroid benefit and acted to help reduce TSH levels and increase free thyroid hormone levels. 

2. It had a thyroid-antibody-reducing benefit and resulted in a decrease in TPO antibodies by almost 50%. 

3. It may provide an anti-thyroid cancer benefit by reducing VEGF levels. 

These results are incredible and should perk the interest of just about every patient with Hashimoto’s. 

The study referenced here used nigella sativa at 2 grams per day but I think black seed oil can provide superior benefits.

Black Seed Oil Is The #1 Most Effective Treatment for Hashimoto’s

Food waste is a significant issue worldwide, with millions of tons discarded annually. Bakeries, integral to food production and consumption, play a vital role in combating this issue by adopting sustainable practices and finding creative ways to reduce, reuse, and recycle food items. In this article, we’ll explore various ways bakeries are working to minimize food waste and how these efforts contribute to a more sustainable future.

1. Implementing Efficient Inventory Management

One of the key ways bakeries are reducing food waste is through effective inventory management. This involves carefully tracking the ingredients in stock and analyzing past sales trends to predict demand. With the right inventory management system, bakeries can order the correct amount of ingredients, reducing the likelihood of surplus. Additionally, some bakeries use advanced digital tools that help them forecast demand accurately, lowering the risk of overproduction and waste.

2. Repurposing Unsold Goods

Despite careful planning, there are times when bakeries may have unsold goods. Rather than discarding these items, many bakeries have embraced the idea of repurposing them into new products. For example, leftover bread can be transformed into croutons, breadcrumbs, or even a base for desserts. Day-old pastries might be incorporated into recipes that require baked components, such as bread pudding or cake pops. By creatively reusing unsold items, bakeries not only reduce waste but also create new offerings that customers may find appealing.

3. Donating to Charities and Food Banks

Many bakeries have begun partnering with local food banks and charities to donate unsold but still edible goods at the end of each day. This practice not only reduces food waste but also provides nutritious baked goods to those in need. Through partnerships with these organizations, bakeries are able to contribute to food security and support their communities. Donation programs can significantly reduce waste while making a positive social impact, and some countries even offer incentives or protections for businesses that donate surplus food.

4. Composting Programs

For items that can’t be repurposed or donated, composting provides an eco-friendly solution. Composting not only prevents food waste from ending up in landfills but also creates nutrient-rich soil that can be used for gardening or farming. Many bakeries have started composting programs to handle waste such as fruit peels, coffee grounds, and other organic byproducts. Composting supports the environment by reducing methane emissions from decomposing food waste and enriches the soil with valuable nutrients.

5. Using “Imperfect” Ingredients

In recent years, there has been a shift towards using “imperfect” ingredients — items that might be slightly misshapen or have minor blemishes but are otherwise fresh and high-quality. Bakeries can use these ingredients in their products, such as incorporating overripe bananas into banana bread or using bruised apples in pies. By embracing imperfect ingredients, bakeries help reduce food waste from farms and suppliers, who might otherwise discard these items due to minor imperfections.

Conclusion

A bakery in Mattoon, IL, can play a vital role in reducing food waste by implementing smart inventory management, repurposing unsold goods, and donating excess food to local charities. Additionally, composting and using “imperfect” ingredients help minimize waste. By adopting sustainable practices, bakeries support community health, and environmental sustainability, and demonstrate leadership in the fight against food waste.

The Role Of Bakeries In Reducing Food Waste

In recent years, there has been a significant shift in the grocery industry toward sustainability, with a strong emphasis on reducing plastic use and exploring innovative packaging alternatives. As environmental concerns grow and consumers become more eco-conscious, grocery stores are adopting new strategies to reduce their environmental footprint. The push toward reducing plastic packaging is driven by both consumer demand and regulatory pressures, which are encouraging stores to rethink how they package and present products.

One prominent trend is the increased use of biodegradable and compostable materials. These materials, such as plant-based plastics, cornstarch, and paper products, break down more easily than traditional plastics. Some grocery stores have started using these biodegradable alternatives for fresh produce, bakery items, and pre-packaged meals. These materials not only reduce the reliance on plastic but also offer an eco-friendly option for customers concerned about waste and sustainability.

Another growing trend is the adoption of recyclable packaging. Many grocery stores in Byron, IL are moving toward using packaging materials that can be easily recycled, such as glass, aluminum, and certain types of cardboard. These materials are often preferred over single-use plastics because they can be recycled multiple times and are less harmful to the environment. Recyclable packaging is especially common for products like beverages, dairy, and frozen foods, where the shelf-life of the product and the need for sturdy packaging remain essential.

In addition to using recyclable materials, there is a strong emphasis on reducing overall packaging. Many stores are offering products in bulk, allowing customers to bring their reusable containers. This reduces the need for single-use packaging entirely. Some grocery chains have even introduced refill stations where customers can fill their containers with staples like grains, nuts, and cleaning supplies. This trend not only minimizes plastic waste but also promotes a more sustainable shopping experience by encouraging reusable containers.

Packaging-free options are also gaining traction, especially in the fresh produce section. More stores are allowing customers to purchase fruits and vegetables without any packaging, reducing plastic use in the most common grocery items. Additionally, some stores have introduced zero-waste aisles, where customers can find a range of products without any packaging, from pasta to snacks to hygiene items. This initiative supports customers who want to minimize their plastic consumption while offering convenience and reducing waste at the same time.

Edible packaging is an emerging concept that could revolutionize the grocery packaging industry. Companies are exploring ways to make packaging that can be eaten or ingested, reducing waste altogether. For example, packaging made from seaweed or rice paper could be used for snacks and other food products. While still in the experimental stage, edible packaging has the potential to eliminate plastic waste, offering a promising solution to the growing problem of plastic pollution.

Lastly, grocery stores are increasingly focusing on educating consumers about the importance of reducing plastic waste. Many stores now provide information on how to properly recycle packaging, as well as incentives for customers who bring reusable bags or containers. This educational approach not only raises awareness but also empowers customers to make more sustainable choices.

As the grocery industry continues to innovate, the shift toward reducing plastic packaging will likely expand, bringing more sustainable alternatives to the forefront. The focus on biodegradable materials, recyclable packaging, bulk shopping options, and even edible packaging shows that there are many ways the industry can evolve to meet the demand for sustainability, reduce plastic waste, and help protect the environment.

Triggers of Inflammation with Dr. Will Cole

Throughout this 2nd full season, one of the go-to themes has been to chat with various Sheriffs about their jails and the communities they have watch over. In case you’re not aware, there are approximately 3100 Sheriffs’ across the United States and a similar amount of jails. Also if you’re not aware, the various tiers of incarceration are Jail, State/Private, & Federal. While each Sheriff runs his or her jail slightly differently, they all answer to their communities, the people who elected them. Note:  This is not the case in the State and Federal carceral system.  In this, Episode #92, and the last episode of 2024, we revisit both Sheriff Nick Cocchi of Hampden County, Massachusetts, and Sheriff Patrick Cahillane of Hampshire County, Massachusetts. Both are avid supporters of The Hustler Files show, but more importantly, innovative and forward-thinking when it comes to not only rehabilitating their jail population but doing the right thing for their fellow citizens.  Episode #93 will be the first episode of 2025!

Do you feel like your thyroid is taking over your life? Are you suffering from symptoms like weight gain, hair loss, fatigue, brain fog, or mood swings? If so, you aren’t alone. 

In fact, millions of other thyroid patients in the United States and around the world suffer from the same issues. And these issues persist even in the face of normal treatment with thyroid medication!

The question is: what can you do about it?

That’s exactly what this podcast is about.

I’m Dr. Westin Childs (D.O.) a former practicing osteopathic physician and my goal is to help thyroid patients get back to feeling 100%. 

Well, I actually have 2 goals:

#1. The first is to help 1 million thyroid patients directly or indirectly. 

And #2. To create the most comprehensive and helpful thyroid resource for thyroid patients on the internet. 

I know just how debilitating thyroid disease can be and I also know that it is possible to take control of your life. 

One of the biggest problems with thyroid management is that we just don’t talk about it enough. 

This podcast changes that. 

We are going to discuss all sorts of topics ranging from thyroid management, the use of less talked about thyroid medications, opinions on emerging treatments and therapies from leading experts, the use of natural therapies and how they fit into the conventional model, and so much more. 

If you want more information aside from the standard thyroid treatment of TSH and levothyroxine then this is the place for you. 

We won’t just stop at your thyroid, either. 

Other topics that are relevant and important to thyroid function will be discussed including things like hormone balance, menopause, testosterone replacement therapy, and weight loss therapies. 

If something helps you to better manage your thyroid, improve your symptoms, lose weight, or balance your hormones then it’s something I want to include.
