We occupy ourselves with all sorts of stuff and let ourselves be distracted from the things that are actually important.<br \/>\nFor me, it is quite important to recognize what is happening above me and why. For example, for health reasons.<br \/>\nBecause at the beginning of 2022, my body was extremely poisoned (e.g., with <strong>arsenic levels 10 times<\/strong> over the limit) and I was on the verge of a heart attack. Through a detox that &#8220;broke&#8221; everything out of me, I lost 40 kg and have since focused on truly important topics: namely ME!  <\/p>\n<p>When something like that happens to you, you start to research. What was the cause, what can be done, or what cannot? <\/p>\n<p><strong>Then you suddenly see theory and practice in a very personal light.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I too have repeatedly wondered how this could happen. Through food? Too little exercise? Being overweight? Or&#8230; poisoning.<br \/>\nWhen some friends repeatedly told me about poisoning from the air by spraying planes, I was skeptical at first.<br \/>\nAnother conspiracy theory?     <\/p>\n<p>As a <strong>&#8220;digital person,&#8221;<\/strong> I then quickly look for answers. Verifiable ones. From sources that can actually be trusted. That can be verified and that in turn <strong>refer to further sources.<\/strong><br \/>\nThat is exactly what I found extremely positive about this website, because for every project, details and the corresponding websites are referenced.<br \/>\nAnyone who researches here will find many answers to questions that probably haven&#8217;t occurred to them before.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_small\"><\/div><div class=\"w-image align_center\"><div class=\"w-image-h\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.der-digitalisierungsberater.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/London-1024x768.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.der-digitalisierungsberater.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/London-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.der-digitalisierungsberater.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/London-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.der-digitalisierungsberater.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/London-scaled.jpg 760w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_small\"><\/div><div class=\"wpb_text_column\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><p style=\"text-align: center;\">London, May 2022.
