[[link removed]] Titanium Dioxide: Food Additive Runs Rampant as Nanoparticles Slip Through the Cracks
As if titanium dioxide in its previous powder form wasn’t bad enough (posing multiple health risks), even worse is the compound in nanoparticle form.

From there they are able to be inserted into a plethora of food and cosmetic products.

There’s plenty of research to support the claim that consuming kava can have beneficial effects on sleep and relaxation.

During the first half of May 2024, AVFCA brought awareness to specific observance days by sharing our original stories that matched these themes:
World Press Freedom Day: “Censorship: Lessons From The Past”
When there’s a veil in front of us, it’s impossible to see the whole picture. Fine lines and details that are critical components to empowered decision-making are obscured. When what we see and hear is tainted, filtered through the lens of censorship, our choices are not birthed from authenticity. We must fight to remove the veils that blind us.

International No Diet Day: “Plant Toxins: How These Antinutrients May Be Injuring You”
Explored the concept of "antinutrients" found in plant foods. More specifically researched were lectins, found in foods such as whole grains, beans, potatoes, and nightshades. Lectins can be hard on your digestion, and are linked to leaky gut syndrome, as well as autoimmune disorders. [link removed] [[link removed]]
Our team also reads hundreds of articles each week, and those of interest are shared on our social media platforms. However, once or twice a week, our team reads an article that is profound or shares a perspective that is new or from an expert that AVFCA feels should be highlighted. These articles are shared on our Substack.
