Biomolecules regulate the biological functions inside every living cell. If scientists can understand the molecular mechanisms, then it is possible to detect severe dysfunction. At a molecular level, this can be achieved with fluorescent markers that are incorporated into the respective biomolecules. Researchers are now able to show that a complex of manganese makes it possible to conveniently label certain biomolecules.

Each year the International Herb Association1 names the Herb of the Year, and for 2021 it is parsley (Petroselinum crispum). Parsley is from the Apiaceae family, which also includes caraway, coriander, cumin and celery.2 The plants grow best in hardiness zones 2 to 11, reaching a height of up to 1 foot and spreading 1 foot across.3 When left to flower, the plants produce small green-yellow flowers.
Parsley is considered an herb. The word herb refers to the green part of a plant used to season and flavor food. For example, spinach is green but is a vegetable because it is a food and not a flavoring. Parsley is green but used as a flavoring and so it's an herb.
Herbs are known for their fragrance and aromatic properties.4 In many cases, herbs have been a part of natural and traditional medicines for decades. There is also an essential difference between what is classified as a spice and what is an herb. It boils down to what part of the plant you are using.
For example, an herb is the green part of the plant, whereas using dried bark, roots or seeds would be considered a spice. Using herbs in your cooking adds a richer flavor to your foods. Some recipes call for dried herbs and others for fresh. This is not interchangeable since the process of drying changes the flavor profile.
Dried herbs may be used during the cooking process, but fresh herbs are often added at the end of your meal preparation.
Parsley Named Herb of the Year
National Herb Week was established in 1991 by the International Herb Association (IHA).5 It is celebrated each year in the week before Mother's Day, which in many parts of the U.S. marks the beginning of gardening season.
The purpose of National Herb Week is to bring national attention to the many available herbs used in the kitchen and grown in gardens. Since 1995, Herb of the Year has been used to highlight National Herb Week. The IHA’s Horticultural committee chooses the herb based on the plant meeting two of three criteria.
The criteria include having outstanding characteristics in medicine, cooking or as a decorative plant. Every year, the IHA publishes a book on the selected herb in which members contribute material that may range from botanical information to how to use the plant. For 2021, the IHA chose parsley.6
There are three varieties of parsley.7 Crispum has curly leaves and looks a little like moss. Neapolitanum is better known as Italian parsley and has a stronger flavor and flat leaves. Tuberosum was developed in the last 200 years and is grown for the flavor of the roots.
Parsley is native to the Mediterranean region where it was cultivated for more than 2,000 years. Some historians believe the Roman Emperor Charles the Great popularized the herb since it grew all over his property.8
Parsley is one of the most common fresh herbs used in the U.S. and for decades has been used as a garnish in restaurants.9 The ancient Greeks and Romans used it more in ceremonies than in the kitchen. Ultimately, the taste of the plant depends on the soil in which it grows and climate conditions.
Parsley is easy to grow in well-drained soil. The plant prefers cool summer climates, but must be protected as the temperature drops. The flat leaf variety is more cold- and drought-tolerant than the curly leaf.10 Container plants can overwinter indoors and provide fresh parsley during the winter months.
Health Benefits of Flavonoid Glycosides
Parsley is more than just a pretty face. The leaves and stems are rich in flavonoid glycosides that have demonstrated significant antioxidant activity.11 One chemical analysis of Petroselinum crispum leaves and apiin identified 29 flavonoid glycosides.12 Apiin13 is a natural diglycoside of apigenin. This is a flavone, which is one of six subclasses of flavonoids.14
In a study, the water extract of parsley contained 90% pure apigenin and a high content of phenolics and total flavonoids with high antioxidant activity.15 Analysis also found high amounts of quercetin in the parsley extract.
In the lab the extract demonstrated a low level of toxicity and high dose-dependent antioxidant potential. Apiin, the major compound found in parsley, had significant antioxidant activity on cells placed under oxidative stress. The researchers conclude this data suggest it is likely the antioxidant activity is related to all compounds found in the plant.16
Dietary flavonoids are naturally found in vegetables, fruits, wine, tea and chocolate. The high bioavailability is a major contributor to the biological activities,17 which include antioxidant, anticancer, antitumor and hepatoprotective effects.18 Other biological effects can include antidiabetic, antiviral, antibacterial and antifungal activity.
Many of the effects seem to be related to modulating cell signaling cascades. There is some limited evidence that the anti-inflammation and antioxidant activity in flavonoids have an influence on neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease.
Animal model studies have demonstrated that flavonoids can cross the blood-brain barrier, helping to reduce cognitive impairment during normal and pathological aging.19 Plants use flavonoids to combat environmental stress, regulate cell growth and attract pollinating insects.
Anti-Inflammatory Benefits of Parsley
Your body uses acute and intermittent increases in inflammation to fight physical injury and infection. However, chronic inflammation can lead to several of the leading causes of death in the U.S.,20 including cardiovascular disease, cancer, chronic kidney disease, diabetes and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.21,22
Infections, poor diet, exposure to toxins, psychological stress and physical inactivity all contribute to a rising level of chronic inflammation. There are several lifestyle choices you can make that help reduce the risk of chronic inflammation, and therefore may reduce your risk of chronic disease. Among those are your food choices.
Plants have been a part of cultural medicinal practices for centuries. Traditionally, parsley has been used to treat cardiac disease, kidney disease, diabetes and high blood pressure.23 More recently, scientists have found it has a positive effect on female infertility.
A recent study24 published in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology sought to evaluate the acute toxicity and anti-inflammatory activity of parsley extract in an animal model. The researchers also measured the animals' estrogen levels, protein and cholesterol.
Using a polyphenolic fraction, the researchers investigated subacute toxicity measuring weight and later a histopathological examination of the kidneys and liver. The results showed the extract did not negatively impact the liver or kidneys of the animals and did show:25
“… remarkable anti-inflammatory activity, as well as significant estrogenic effect compared to negative control.” And concluded, “This study provides a scope of the potential use of Petroselinum sativum Hoffm. extracts in counteracting female infertility issues.”
Researchers from two universities in Korea26 also analyzed the ethanol extract of parsley as an ingredient in functional cosmetics. They sought to verify the antiaging, anti-inflammatory and skin brightening effects of the parsley extract, including the polyphenol and total flavonoid content. Laboratory studies showed no cytotoxicity and researchers concluded the evidence suggested:27
“Parsley extracts have remarkable anti-oxidant effects and are valuable as a cosmetics ingredient with anti-inflammatory, skin-brightening, and anti-aging effects.”
An earlier study28 of parsley ethanol extract evaluated the anti-inflammatory and antihepatotoxic activity in an animal model when hepatic damage was induced. Later, histopathological tests on the liver were carried out. Results of the experiment showed the flavonoids, tannins and/or triterpenoids offered significant protection against hepatic damage.
Parsley May Help Reduce Anxiety and Depression
Estimates of the percentage of the population experiencing depression or anxiety disorders included 6.68% of adult Americans experiencing anxiety in 201829 and 4.7% of the population with regular feelings of depression in 2019.30 These numbers rose dramatically in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic.
A systematic review of the literature31 found the prevalence of stress was 29.6%, anxiety 31.9% and depression 33.7%. Researchers concluded COVID-19 had an impact on mental health and it was essential to develop interventions for vulnerable groups.
In a paper published in 202132 researchers sought to evaluate the effects parsley extract may have on anxiety and depression, with an aim to help in the treatment of these disorders. The researchers wrote that depression and anxiety are generally treated with chemical psychotropic medications that may cause unwanted side effects.
The intent was to investigate medicinal plants that may offer safe and effective therapeutic treatment options with fewer side effects. Parsley was investigated for its potential anxiolytic and antidepressant activities to find if there was a correlation with the known antioxidant activity.
In an animal model, the researchers used several chemical and functional tests to determine the anti-anxiety, antidepressant and antioxidant activity. They concluded:33
“Parsley, a daily used culinary herb worldwide, presents enormous health benefits and through this study, it has been shown to have a remarkable antidepressant-like and anxiolytic activity, even better than classic drugs, especially with the dose of 100 mg/kg.
In the search for an effective medicine with fewer or almost no side effect, this plant could be a well-placed alternative. This work encourages its daily consumption as well as its development to a well-established phytomedicine.”
Another active component to parsley is myristicin, which researchers have demonstrated has potential chemopreventive actions.34 The same substance is also found in high amounts in nutmeg.35 Research using myristicin derived from nutmeg demonstrated anxiolytic effects in rats.36
More Benefits From Adding Parsley to Your Diet
Green leafy vegetables, such as parsley, contain vitamin K1, also known as phylloquinone.37 Just 10 sprigs of parsley deliver over the recommended daily value for vitamin K.38 Your body uses vitamin K to move calcium out of your bloodstream and into your bones.
Low levels of vitamin K are associated with a higher risk of bone fracture. A recent literature review39 found people with the highest levels of vitamin K had 22% fewer bone fractures than those with low levels.
Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin your body uses in blood clotting and a variety of other cellular functions. One paper published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition40 sought to determine if there is an association between vitamin K, cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality.
The data we gathered from the Framingham Offspring study and included 3,891 men and women. Although there is an association between vitamin K and vascular health, the data from this study did not show an association between low levels and cardiovascular disease.
There was, however, a link between low levels and all-cause mortality, since those with low levels were more likely to die within 13 years,41 representing a 19% increased risk.42 Ten sprigs of parsley also have 22% of the recommended daily value of vitamin C.43
The combination of vitamin C and the anti-inflammatory effects of parsley may offer some protection to people who have rheumatoid arthritis. Findings presented in the Annals of Rheumatic Diseases44 focused on individuals who developed inflammatory polyarthritis. Researchers found those who ate the lowest amount of foods rich in vitamin C were three times more likely to develop arthritis.
Parsley also has a diuretic effect.45 Animal models demonstrate this effect may be mediated through the cellular sodium potassium pump, leading to a reduction in the absorption of both minerals and thus to an increase in osmotic water flow and diuresis.
Since vitamin K is fat soluble, it's best to eat your parsley with foods that have healthy fat, such as pastured and organically grown meat and dairy products. This increases absorption. Eating foods rich in vitamin K, such as parsley, is the best way to consume vitamin K1.

The propagation of truth
An organized attempt to thoroughly inform the public about something that is in their best interest
In my opinion Dr. Peter McCullough is one of the most courageous well credentialed academic physicians out there and I hope to interview him soon. He is vice chief of internal medicine at Baylor University Medical Center and despite his impeccable credentials, he has been vilified for stating during the very beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, that it was all about the vaccine and getting a global mass vaccination campaign underway.
"All roads lead to the vaccine," McCullough said in a recent interview (video above1,2), with stakeholders banking on countries mandating the vaccine worldwide. The first video above is a 16-minute outtake from a much longer interview, which is the second video.3
McCullough points out that a number of countries are already talking about making the as-yet unlicensed COVID-19 vaccine compulsory, meaning anyone and everyone can be forced to take it against their will. "That's how bad stakeholders want vaccination," McCullough says. "They do want a needle in every arm. But why?" That's the million-dollar question right there.
Unbelievable Incentives Offered
Recent weeks have seen a significant rise in all sorts of vaccination incentives in the U.S., from free doughnuts, cake,4 french fries, hot dogs and pizza,5 to arcade tokens,6 10-cent beer,7 free state park season passes,8 free Uber and Lyft rides,9 free marijuana10 and Cincinnati Reds baseball tickets,11 a chance to win a full scholarship12 and even $1 million13 and $5 million14 giveaways. Below is a more complete list of incentives, posted on vaccines.gov.15
To say the vaccine push has an air of desperation about it would be a profoundly serious understatement.
Considering the U.S. Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) has logged more deaths following COVID-19 vaccination than all available vaccines combined from mid-1997 until the end of 201316 — a period of 15 1/2 years — one has to wonder why our leaders are so insistent on everyone getting these experimental gene therapies.
They're even pushing for former COVID-19 patients to get the jab, even though they already have superior permanent immunity17 and studies show they have a far higher risk of severe side effects from the COVID jab.18
If it's really about protecting the public against COVID-19, why aren't recovered COVID patients — whose protection is far superior to vaccine-induced immunity — offered some sort of immunity passport or granted access to sporting events or education that is now only granted to those with vaccine certificates?
What's more, North Carolina has now passed legislation that allows children as young as 12 to get the COVID vaccine without parental consent.19 Think about that. As of May 21, 2021, 4,406 Americans had died after the COVID vaccine,20 including three teenagers,21,22,23,24 and 12-year-olds are now being encouraged to make a life and death decision without their parents?
As noted by McCullough, historically, the threshold at which an experimental vaccine program is shut down is 25 to 50 deaths, yet here we are, with over 4,000 deaths being reported in the U.S. and many thousands more in Europe.25,26
In a recent report, the Israeli People Committee, a civilian body of health experts, similarly concluded that "there has never been a vaccine that has harmed as many people."27
After vaccinating 45 million with the pandemic swine flu vaccine in 1976, the U.S. stopped the program after only 25 deaths.28 (The number of deaths reported after the 1976 inoculation program varies from three to 53, depending on the source.29,30,31,32) And let's remember this too: If something goes wrong, the vaccine manufacturers are completely indemnified against lawsuits. You're on your own.
Mass Vaccination Is a Beyond Terrible Strategy
As a physician, McCullough is no longer recommending this vaccine, and other prominent virologists and physicians are calling for a stop to the program. Sadly, many are complying simply because they're desperate to get back to the "normal" they knew before, of sending their children to school, keeping their job and leading the life they had before the pandemic.
Don't do it, McCullough says — don't fall for this trap because it's only going to make things worse. By vaccinating everyone against a very narrow spectrum of immunity — the original SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, which has since mutated in any number of ways and no longer exists — "we are setting ourselves up for a superbug that's going to wipe out populations," he says.
As such, the COVID-19 vaccine is a bioweapon, McCullough warns, and the side effect concerns are "far beyond anything we have ever seen … Americans should be extraordinarily alarmed."
What's This Vaccine Program Really About?
Why is the vaccine pushed in this way? McCollough believes it's a global goal to "mark" people, to get you into their vaccine database, which will eventually be turned into a tool for population control, courtesy of vaccine passports.
When we're talking about population control, there are two distinct forms, and both may apply in this case. One form of population control is about controlling people through the ideology of utilitarianism, vaccine passports and a social credit system, all of which are tied together. Another form is actual depopulation.
Population Control Through Utilitarianism and Vaccination
Utilitarianism is based on a mathematical equation that some individuals can be sacrificed for the greater good of the majority. In other words, if some people are harmed by vaccines, it's an acceptable loss because society as a whole may or will reap gains.
This discredited pseudo-ethic has repeatedly been used to justify horrific human rights abuses. The Third Reich, for example, employed the utilitarian rationale as an excuse to demonize and eliminate minorities judged to be a threat to the health, security and well-being of the State.33 Now, utilitarianism is being called upon yet again, under the false narrative that mankind as a whole is in peril unless everyone rolls the dice and gets vaccinated.
In the end, the idea is that vaccine refusers won't be allowed to freely participate in society any longer. This is the disincentive or negative incentive, which is added on top of the positive incentives previously mentioned.
While U.S. government officials realize they cannot mandate vaccination on a national level, as it would be a direct violation of the U.S. Constitution, they are pushing for it nonetheless by encouraging private companies to mandate vaccination as a condition of employment or access to services. They're also spending billions of dollars on advertising in conventional media, paid for by U.S. taxpayers.
In short, vaccine passports are a way to force compliance. But the vaccine database can also form the foundation for a much larger control structure, a social credit system, where you lose points any time you behave in a way that is deemed undesirable.
This quite literally could be anything, judging by the Chinese social credit system. People with low social credit scores can't travel on certain kinds of public transportation, can't travel overseas, hold certain jobs, go to school or even get a loan.
The point is, once you're in this system, you're under someone else's control. If they say you have to get a booster shot, you have to comply — again and again — or risk losing basic human rights, such as the ability to buy and sell, travel or get an education.
The Depopulation Agenda
The other form of population control refers to actual depopulation. A primary problem the global elite have been trying to solve for a long time is that there are too many people consuming too much of the world's perceived limited resources and polluting everything in the process. The answer, in their mind, is to reduce the global population.
While birth control and abortions are promoted to help with this, these strategies aren't effective, or rapid, enough. They need a less fertile population and they need people to die sooner.
While many may not want to believe this could possibly be true, you have to remember that the intention is not to cause suffering per se. It's a form of self-preservation, as their end goal is to concentrate all the world's wealth into their own hands. Ultimately, that's what the Great Reset is all about.
In the interview above, which is part of the full-length documentary "Planet Lockdown,"34 Michael Yeadon, Ph.D., a life science researcher and former vice-president and chief scientist of allergy and respiratory research at Pfizer, shares his views on the COVID-19 pandemic and his fears about the COVID-19 vaccines.
"Basically, everything your government has told you about this virus, everything you need to do to stay safe, is a lie," Yeadon says. "And if they're not telling the truth, that means there's something else. And I'm here to tell you that there is something very, very bad happening. If you don't pay attention, you will soon lose any chance to do anything about it."
Will Booster Shots Be the Death Knell?
Of all the lies we've been told over the past year, the ones that worry and frighten Yeadon the most are the lies about virus variants and booster shots. In fact, he believes not buying into these lies may be key to your very survival.
"When your government scientists tell you that a variant that's 0.3% different from SARS-CoV-2 could masquerade as a new virus and be a threat to your health, you should know, and I'm telling you, they are lying," Yeadon says.
"If they're lying — and they are — why is the pharmaceutical industry making top-up [booster] vaccines? … There's absolutely no possible justification for their manufacture. And the world's medicines regulators have said, 'Because they are quite similar to the original vaccines … we won't be asking them to do any clinical safety studies' …
There's no possible benign interpretation of this. I believe they're going to be used to damage your health and possibly kill you. Seriously. I can see no sensible interpretation other than a serious attempt at mass depopulation.
This will provide the tools to do it, and plausible deniability. They'll create another story about some sort of biological threat and you'll line up and get your top-up vaccines [booster shots], and a few months or a year or so later, you'll die of some peculiar inexplicable syndrome. And they won't be able to associate it with the vaccines …
Given that this virus represents, at worst, a slightly bigger risk to the old and ill than influenza, and a smaller risk [than influenza] to almost everyone else … we didn't need to do anything. [We didn't need] lockdowns, masks, mass testing, vaccines.
There are multiple therapeutic drugs that are at least as effective as the vaccines are. They're already available and cheap … An off-patent drug called ivermectin, one of the most widely-used drugs in the world, is able to reduce symptoms at any stage of the disease, including lethality by about 90%. So, you don't need vaccines and you don't need any of the measures that have been introduced at all."
Why Have Effective Treatments Been Suppressed?
Like Yeadon, McCullough has raised serious questions about the need for a vaccine. Evidence clearly shows there are highly effective treatments,35,36 yet they've been near-universally suppressed in favor of these experimental shots. Why? If it's about protecting public health and saving lives, why would effective treatments be vilified?
As noted by McCullough during a roundtable discussion in the first of several U.S.-based tribunals on COVID-19,37 something very unusual happened in 2020. For the first time, doctors around the world were actively discouraged and prevented from saving their patients. There was "an enormous, complete, pervasive, steadfast suppression of any attempts to help patients with COVID-19," he said, adding:
"We seem to somehow have developed a uniform game plan … to passively allow as much suffering hospitalization and death as possible, create enormous amounts of fear in our society, and then be prepared for mass vaccination."
Disturbingly, there's evidence suggesting the COVID-19 vaccines might indeed perform as a "depopulation weapon" of sorts. For example, there's the potential for formation of non-neutralizing antibodies that can trigger an exaggerated immune reaction (referred to as paradoxical immune enhancement or antibody-dependent immune enhancement or ADE) when the individual is exposed to the wild virus post-vaccination.38,39,40
Put plainly, the vaccine may increase susceptibility to the virus and make people more likely to die from the infection, and data41 now show COVID-19 deaths are spiking around the world right along with rising vaccination rates, even though countries were trending toward herd immunity and deaths were at an all-time low right before the vaccines were released.
The mRNA vaccines also trigger your body to produce antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, and the spike proteins in turn contain syncytin-homologous proteins that are essential for the formation of placenta.42 If a woman's immune system starts reacting against syncytin-1, then there is the possibility she will miscarry if pregnant and ultimately become infertile.
Mass vaccinating children and women of childbearing age against COVID-19 is a profoundly bad idea that could cause mass infertility if the COVID jab triggers an immune reaction against syncytin-1.
We also now know that the worst symptoms of COVID-19 are created by the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, and that is the very thing these gene-based vaccines are instructing your body to make. What's worse, the spike protein your body creates is a genetically modified version that appears far more toxic than the spike protein found in the actual virus.
Like McCullough and Yeadon, Mikovits believes the COVID-19 vaccine is a bioweapon designed to destroy your innate immunity and set you up for rapid onset of debilitating illness and premature death. She too suspects many will die rather rapidly. "It's not going to be 'live and suffer forever.' It's going to be suffer five years and die," she says.
While the death toll from COVID-19 vaccines is already at a historical level, I fear it may shoot far higher as we move through fall and winter. The reason for this is ADE.
Fall and winter are the seasons in which most coronavirus infections occur, be it SARS-CoV2 or other coronaviruses responsible for the common cold, and if ADE does turn out to be a common problem, then vaccinated individuals may in fact turn out to be at significantly higher risk of severe COVID-19 and a potentially lethal immune reaction due to pathogenic priming.
Will You Gamble Your Life?
In my view, there are still so many potential avenues of harm and so many uncertainties, I would encourage everyone to do your homework, keep reading and learning, weigh the potential pros and cons, ignore all pressure tactics and take your time when deciding whether to get any of these COVID-19 gene therapies.
And, if you or someone you love has already received a COVID-19 vaccine and are experiencing side effects, be sure to report it, preferably to all three of these locations.43 While adverse effects and deaths have thus far been ignored, we need as much data as possible if we're to have any chance of stopping this mass vaccination campaign and push toward population control.
