    Infiltration: Kid Sensation, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 463min
    Having a surfeit of super powers is great for battling bad guys and saving the world, as Jim (aka Kid Sensation) is finding out, but less useful in dealing with day-to-day situations - like bonding with his superhero father, adjusting to a team environment, and coping with what might be perceived as a growing rivalry between himself and another teen super. On top of all that, despite having a serious girlfriend, he finds himself inexplicably drawn to a new female super he's just met. At the same time, some villain has just gotten himself a new toy: an unknown weapon of tremendous power that is able to strike without warning, causing unprecedented destruction and loss of life. Perhaps more terrifying, the wielders of this weapon make no demands and issue no threats; they simply attack. Even the Alpha League, the world's greatest superhero team, is not immune, suffering an assault on their very own doorsteps. It quickly becomes clear that the only way to stop this new evil is from within. With his unique abilities, Jim is the only person capable of infiltrating the enemy's ranks. It's up to him to figure out who is behind these attacks, what they want, and find a way to stop them - and their secret weapon - before they bring the entire world to its knees. ungekürzt.

    The Dangers of Consuming Mucus Producing Foods, Mucus Forming Foods That You Should Avoid Eating, and How to Minimize Mucus Production and Discharge Mucus from the Body , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 162min
    This essay sheds light on the dangers of consuming mucus-producing foods, demystifies mucus-forming foods that you should avoid eating, explicates how to minimize mucus production, and delineates how to discharge mucus from the body. Moreover, the surfeit of simple-to-prepare and palatable, healthy food recipes for longevity are identified ,and the various deadly disease-causing foods that you should always desist from ever considering devouring are revealed in this essay. Furthermore, how to substantially mitigate risks for succumbing to contracting severe chronic diseases by embracing a salubrious, wholesome, heart-healthy, brain-healthy, kidney-healthy, anticancer, antidiabetic, nutrient-dense, alkaline, antioxidant-rich, anti-inflammatory, raw fruitarian diet is expounded upon in this essay. The dangers of consuming mucus-producing foods are multitudinous and can be of dire consequence to your health. While mucus may help your body ward off “allergens, irritants, bacteria, viruses, dust” (“Mucus: The Good”, n.d.) and pathogens from entering the body's respiratory system, the overproduction of mucus can denote grave health issues. Mucus can help stave off infections and can be overly produced by consuming mucus-inducing foods or by being in an insalubrious environment that is tainted with “airborne pollutants, allergens, irritants” (“Mucus: The Good”, n.d.) and pathogens that pervade the air. Allergic reactions, viruses, and infections can also trigger excess mucus production. Having excess mucus accumulate in the airways of your respiratory system can be of dire consequence to your health. This not only creates a haven for bacteria to thrive, but it also preempts the cilia from discharging bacteria out of the body. Excess mucus production can render you more vulnerable to succumbing to “chest congestion, excessive congestion, respiratory tract infections, wet cough, frequent throat-clearing, strong cough, or chesty cough” (“Mucus: The Good"). ungekürzt.

    The Dangers of Eating Energy Bars: Why People Mistakenly Believe that Energy Bars Are Healthy to Eat, Why You Should Not Eat Energy Bars, and the Plethora of Simple to Prepare Healthy Food Recipes , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 154min
    This essay sheds light on the dangers of eating energy bars, elucidates why people mistakenly believe that energy bars are healthy to eat, and explicates why you should never eat energy bars. Moreover, the plethora of simple to prepare and palatable healthy food recipes for longevity are demystified and the surfeit of deadly disease causing foods that you should always desist from ever considering devouring are revealed in this essay. Furthermore, how to substantially mitigate risks for succumbing to contracting deleterious chronic diseases by embracing a salubrious, wholesome, heart healthy, brain healthy, kidney healthy, anticancer, antidiabetic, nutrient dense, alkaline, antioxidant rich, anti-inflammatory, raw fruitarian diet is expounded upon in this essay. Unsurprisingly, the consumption of energy bars is not without its deleterious ramifications against your overall health. Energy bars are an unhealthy, oxidized, acidic, non-alkaline, synthetic, bastardized man made product are are laced with added “sugars, artificial ingredients, partially hydrogenated oils” (“Energy Bar Ingredients”, n.d.), and a host of other noxious ingredients. Energy bars may also contain pathogens, endocrine distributors, neurotoxins, “genetically modified ingredients” (Painter, 2009), and carcinogens. Some of the ample noxious ingredients that energy bars can be comprised of encompass “high-fructose corn syrup, soy protein isolate, inulin, agave syrup, brown rice syrup, sucralose, fractionated palm kernel oil, and sugar alcohols” (Young, 2016). Energy bars are a motley of deleterious ingredients that can cause digestive distress and other health issues. “The process of ‘isolating’ the soy protein to produce soy protein isolate for instance can leave behind traces of the neurotoxins hexane and aluminum and can even cause digestive woes due to higher concentrations of trypsin inhibitors that could block the digestion of plant protein. Moreover, around 90% of all soy is ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Derek Francis. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/222435/bk_acx0_222435_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Sicilian Gothic: The Convergence of Carmelo and Nellie: A Novel Based on the Lives of My Parents , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 301min
    Most novels don't have footnotes, said a friend to whom I'd sent a draft manuscript of this book.True, but most novels aren't overtly based on real people. This one is. Carmelo and Nellie Tosto were my parents. Why is it a novel, a work of fiction? Because there isn't enough documentable evidence about them to constitute a typical biography.Unlike today, with its surfeit of personal data - photos, videos, correspondence, diaries, and the like - the period between 1901 and 1939 afforded few opportunities, especially for lower class immigrants, to leave tangible evidence of their presence on earth.Before converging in an arranged marriage, the lives of Carmelo Tosto and Nellie Cascio were on divergent paths.Carmelo's history is particularly sparse as his documentation originates at an institution for abandoned infants in Catania, Sicily in 1901. He grew up in a nearby fishing village and at the age of 14 went to work as a merchant marine sailor until 1925 when he jumped ship in Baltimore.Nellie was born in Sicily but grew up from infancy in America with serious aspirations to become a Catholic nun. There's much more evidence of her early life, but her character and story need some enhancement.After diligent gleaning using today's powerful internet search tools, I amassed a trove of facts about them. I added to those findings whatever I could collect from personal reminiscences, family lore, and some artifacts.It was exciting to see the early days of my long-gone parents taking shape in my mind. But also frustrating. Like scrapbooks retrieved from a flood, the tide of time had dissolved much detail about them. As the first fruit of their convergence, I didn't know them personally until they were well into their 30s. By then, like most of us, they had changed markedly from their youthful personas.I felt the best way to present their story was to assemble my collection of fact fragments with the connective ungekürzt.

    The Dangers of Consuming Foods That Are High in Lectins, How to Minimize Lectin Absorption When Eating Foods That Are High in Lectins, and Lectin Rich Foods That You Should Avoid Eating , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 196min
    This essay sheds light on the dangers of consuming foods that are high in lectins, explicates how to minimize lectin absorption when eating foods that are high in lectins, and identifies lectin rich foods that you should avoid eating. Moreover, the cornucopia of simple to prepare and palatable healthy food recipes for longevity are demystified and the surfeit of deadly disease causing foods that you should always desist from ever considering devouring are revealed in this essay. Furthermore, how to substantially mitigate risks for succumbing to contracting lethal chronic diseases by embracing a salubrious, wholesome, heart healthy, brain healthy, kidney healthy, anticancer, antidiabetic, nutrient dense, alkaline, antioxidant rich, anti-inflammatory, raw fruitarian diet is expounded upon in this essay. The dangers of consuming foods that are high in lectins should not be overlooked. The consumption of lectin rich foods can of dire consequence to your overall health. Lectins are a natural insecticide for a plant that allow plants to fend off against insects and predators. Sufficiently stated, “lectins are a deemed diverse family of carbohydrate-binding proteins found in all plants and animals. Some plant lectins are even considered toxic. For instance, in the case of the poison ricin, a lectin from the castor oil plant, they can be lethal” (Leech, 2019). The consumption of lectin rich foods can unequivocally be perilous, especially since lectins were designed to be a potent insecticide is to ward off insects and predators from eating plants. Lectins are more abundant in protein dense plant based foods, such as peanuts, grains, beans and legumes. Plants subsumed under the nightshade family are also considered rich in lectins. The consumption of lectins can elicit acute digestive distress which is all the more reason why you should eschew eating lectin rich foods. “For example, raw kidney beans contain phytohaemagglutinin, a toxic lectin.
