Lately, I've been seeing Beta Glucans popping up all over natural health websites. Intrigued but admittedly clueless about what they actually are, I decided to delve deeper into this mysterious compound that seems to be all the rage in the world of holistic healing. What I unearthed was nothing short of fascinating. Beta Glucans, a powerhouse of bioactive substances, are generating quite the buzz for their wide array of health-enhancing and prebiotic benefits.

Three years ago, I delved into the world of tap water and realised the necessity of distilling it to remove toxins. However, in my quest to purify my water, I discovered that along with toxins, essential nutrients were also being stripped away. This led me to explore different ways to replenish these vital nutrients in my water. What I found was a treasure trove of possibilities as there are countless ingredients we can add to our water to enhance our overall well-being.

I often experience it as one hour of fun last 10 minutes while one hour of boredom lasts two hours. Does this make sense to you? This fascinating paradox of time perception has been a topic of debate for centuries, with two prominent thinkers, Henri Bergson and Albert Einstein, offering conflicting views on the nature of time and its measurement.
