==========RESEARCH, SMART LIVING & YOU =============
In this article, let me share with you about the hermit crab (Coenobita clypeatus). The hermit crab is a symbol and reminder of our teenage years. Did you know it is one of the few pets in teh shops and online that cannot and will not reproduce in captivity? Merchants are constantly balancing the supply chain because they must be captured from the wild.
During my study of this species, we have found the hermit crab is very effective in transforming the soil beyond nutrient rich. The hermit crab inhabited soil contains a substantially better base for encouraging seed germination rates. A comparison of germination rates of wild soil vs. standard soil samples show how the hermit crab plays a crucial role in positively benefiting soil recovery programs with a large potential for the agriculture industry.
Under captivity (i.e. pet stores and homes), anti-substance CC is released. In the wild, substance CC helps promote seed germination while reducing the competitive advantage of germs & mold. Many merchants and business owners never have the opportunity to understand why hermit crabs don't mate within captivity. The answer lies in the production of anti-substance CC. This material causes increased stress in the hermit crab and ultimately reduces their life force/vitality. Interestingly, anti-substance CC and stress are highly correlated.
While increasing natural diets does improve the hermit crab, in captivity, anti-substance CC will be released and shortens the lifespan of the hermit crab. The inability to reproduce the species under captivity shows us how limited our understanding of mimicking natural habitats remains.
A greater question arises, if this is happening in hermit crabs, what might be happening in our own biological systems? Historical studies indicate that improper living environments (food, exercise, stress, chemicals etc) can negatively impact your overall health. For example, eating high fructose corn syrup can lead to greater tooth decay, diabetes and additional metabolic diseases.
A Financial Wake Up:
Many of us know, investing in a college education will allow you the potential to earn at least $25,000 USD/year more than if you did not go to college. Over 40 years, this amounts to $1,000,000 USD in additional spending power. But did you know the maintenance of eating organic/healthier meals, quality products, HEPA filters, water, etc can cost an average of $50-$65/day of additional costs?! Over the next 40 years, this would be 73%-95% of that extra $1M USD!!!
Of course, consumer outcome studies show that healthier living standards do perform better in prevention of allergies, asthma, cancer, diabetes, high cholesterol, hypertension etc. But the fact remains, being healthy is very costly and seems to only be getting more expensive in the near future.
Making Sense:
As a reader, does this make any sense to you? Did you know that if you took 25% of that total amount of $1,000,000 USD and bought an acre of land here, your investment would allow you full access to:
(1) fresh water
(2) clean air
(3) chemical free surroundings
(4) wild, natural foods

Like the hermit crab, when we subject our bodies to unnatural surroundings perhaps our vitality is greatly diminished too! And while I'm not saying you should move, and we sure have more to lose than substance C including substance money and health, this article is a shocking reminder of the real costs to health!
