Part II : save our mother earth : Fermenting food waste with Bokashi Bucket








Eco Bokashi, 20L Eco Bokashi Bucket, cup and mashing utensil












Spread a layer of Eco Bokashi (about 1/3 cup) over the food waste


compress the food waste with mashing utensil
Drain the bokashi juice once or twice a week


Bokashi Juice can be diluted with water and with many usage

This is how I use the ECO BUCKET

1. Place Eco Bucket somewhere close to food/kitchen waste

2. Place the drain plate supplied into the base of ECO BUCKET

3. Add Food/kitchen wastes into the ECO BUCKET

4. At the end of the day, spread a layer (1/3 cup) of ECO BOKASHI over the food waste and compress the food waste in the bucket with mashing utensil

5. Reseal the airtight ECO BUCKET lid

6. Once or twice a week, drain the liquid `Bokashi Juice' from the bucket

7. Once the ECO BUCKET is full, empty the content into small hole or trench approximate 20cm deep and cover with soil. The waste material need to go into soil to physically break down


What can I put into the ECO BUCKET:-
1. vegetable and fruit scraps
2. tea leaves
3. tea bags
4. small amount of paper
5. coffee ground
6. onions, citrus and garlic
7. meat scraps
8. seafood/fish
9. cooked food waste

How often should I drain the bokashi Juice and the usage

Drain Bokashi Juice twice every week or as required

Bokashi Juice is full of friendly microbs and nutrients for plants and stop the drain smelling

It contains nutrients from the food waste and is alive with friendly micro-organisms and is natural nutrient and fertiliser for the plant!

It also stop the drain and toilet smelling.

Bokashi juice must be diluted prior to use in your plants or garden

For Garden use:-

1. Dilute 1:1000 with water for foliar spray

2. Dilute 1:100 with water for lawns and garden beds

For toilet and septic tank and drain

1. Undiluted add directly into toilet or septic tank
2. Undiluted for application to drains




Advantages of Eco Bucket

1. Air tight so there will be no insect problems
2. Fermentation process prevent foul odour

The treated food waste in the ECO BUCKET will actively FERMENT, not decompose, while in the bucket
Imagine a pickled onion or garlic...it looks like an onion or garlic but because it's pickled it will have changed  its internal structure

Fermented contents of the bucket can be transferred directly into the soil of your garden where it will breakdown rapidly.

In 2-3 weeks the buried waste will be mostly broken down into soil, providing a usable nutrient rich end-product and improving the soils levels of nutrients, microbes and enzymes

Fermentation is an alternative sustainable method of recycling food waste versus traditional dumping food waste into landfill.

You can halve your Rubbish to Landfill by composting or fermenting

Fermentation directly reduces greenhouse gas emissions (specifically Methane which is cause by rotting organic matter).

Each kg of food waste dumped into landfill produces 900 gm of Methane (primary greenhouse gas or Carbon Dioxide equivalent CO2e )

So over the period of a year you are reducing many kg of CO2e being placed in the atmosphere

You can get BOKASHI BUCKET from some nurseries, environmental shops and online.. It is best to have 2 buckets, so when one fills up you can leave it to ferment for a while and start using the other. But if you only have one, you don't have to leave it to ferment.


HAPPY TRYING!!!! Please help to save our mother earth!!

Part 1 : Save our mother earth : How to make Garbage Enzyme

It is FUN and EASY to make Garbage Enzyme from Kitchen waste

Ingredients:-
A- Kitchen waste of fruits and vegetables - cut and chopped into small pieces to increase the surface area
(example :Onion, carrot, banana skin, cabbage, apricot peel, orange and lemon's skin). - (Please do not use meat)

B - Raw or Unprocessed Sugar ie Cane Sugar/Molasses (No white sugar)

C- Luke warm water

The ratio should be A:B:C= 1:3:10

Direction:-

Dissolves Cane Sugar/Molasses in Luke warm water in a container with cover and put all the Kitchen waste into the container and mix well. 
The next few days remember to open the container to release the Ozone gas out. 

Is fun to see gas bubbling out and the `Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiii' sound when we open the cap daily for the first few days.


Advantages of Making Garbage Enzyme

1. Reduce our household garbage to half and reduce the landfill for the garbage. We are helping to save our mother earth !!

2. After around two weeks, the liquid enzyme is a nature wonder and with many applications ie can be use as a plant fertilizer, drainage/river/toilet cleaner, natural deodorizer, natural insect repellent etc

3. The fermented kitchen waste (Residue) is an excellent source of compost and soil conditioner. Just bury the residue into your garden and in few weeks time, it will turn into a great compost. You  saves buy fertilizer, it is the best natural fertilizer

4. The gas released from the fermentation is a natural air freshener and natural insect repellents and it helps to save our planet from pollution and ozone layer depletion

I hope that every household in Australia and the rest of the world will start doing Garbage Enzyme from TODAY onwards!!! :)

How I make compost from Kitchen Waste in Rosanna Australia


I have passion for environment and i practise 5 R:-
1. Recycle – recycling waste & make it to compost     
2. Reduce- reduce chemical usage, reduce emission from car which are harmful to the environment
3. Reuse – reuse things which is not biodegrable such as plastic,bring own container to packet rice
4. Rethink – rethink before we throw any rubbish
5. Repair – repair any equipment or machinery before we throw them to the rubbish bin
I just wanna share how i recycle all my organic waste ie kitchen waste (fruits peels, vegetable root,left over food etc)
Kitchen waste for compost








Here is my compost area in the arden
Compost area in garden








Dig a hole in the compost area.








Pour the kitchen waste into the hole. The kitchen waste is so colorful.Isn’t it?










Cover it with soil and then is done!








Instead of putting into the garbage bin which will be collected by Banyule City Council every Tuesday, I had helped to zero the organic rubbish.
After a few weeks, the compost will be ready and you can start to plant some vegetables. You can add in some bokashi into the kitchen waste to accelerate the compost.

Its functional cells are extracted using cutting-edge biotechnological techniques that maintain the viability of their growth factors. These growth factors can rejuvenate and regenerate damaged and aged cells in our body, which revitalises our body in the process.


Why placenta?


The placenta is the cradle of life that protects and nourishes a growing baby by giving him or her important nutrients it needs, which includes growth factors, hyaluronic acid and enzymes. That is why it contains the youngest and most viable cells.

In medicine, the known sources of placenta are sheep, deer or human. Among the best are sheep and deer placentas from New Zealand that are more compatible to the human body and do not cause allergic reactions.

Currently, placenta can be taken orally or through injections. While injections can be costly, you can receive the benefits of placenta’s essence by consuming it orally.


Is it safe for consumption?

Throughout history, mankind has known the incredible restorative powers of placenta.

In ancient Egypt, soldiers consume fresh placenta to rejuvenate themselves for battle.

In China, it has long been used for over a 1400 years as a beauty tonic, kidney tonic and aphrodisiac promoting general health.

The French has long used it as a beauty revitaliser, enhancing body energy, skin complexion and limiting the aging process.

Sheep placenta has been used by the British Royal Family for 1400 years as medicine or promoting general health.

In some cultures, placenta is prepared as a soup for new mothers to help them recover their energy and avoid post-natal depression. Today, it is a favorite among those who wishes to preserve their youth and beauty.


What are the unique benefits of sheep placenta?

Sheep placenta offers one of the richest sources of nutrients, growth factors, immune co-factors and bio-active cytokines ever known. If it is rich enough to nourish a developing embryo, just think of what it can do for your skin and health. Recent scientific research has shown that placenta contains rich growth factors, hormones and antibodies, and other concentrated nutrients that can rejuvenate organic tissue. Some of them promote cell growth, some regulate hormone secretion and some of them strengthen our immune system.

What are the nutrients in sheep placenta?

Sheep placenta contains bioactive nutrients such as :-

essential amino acids,

melatonin,

nucleic acids (RNA and DNA),

SOD (Superoxide Dismutase),

hyaluronic acid,

antioxidants,

immune co-factors,

PAF,

Peptide of Placenta,

EGFs (Epidermal Growth Factors),

regulating factors and

the unique SCAFs (Senescent Cell Activating Factors) etc.


Complete Absorption for Total Youth

After sheep placental cells are grown using cell culture technology, its essence is extracted and condensed into a standard, bioactive, 600mg NUVIT PLATINUM SHEEP PLACENTA PLUS encapsulated in a soft gelatin capsule, which is added with 200mg shark liver oil essence and 200mg grape seed oil essence. It is rich with antioxidants, and is effective in protecting cells from free-radical damage.


After taking NUVIT PLATINUM SHEEP PLACENTA PLUS, the soft gelatin capsule will pass through the stomach intact to protect the active ingredients in the capsule from being damaged by stomach acids. To ensure that the cellular elements are fully utilised, they will be released and absorbed in the small intestine to achieve anti-ageing effects.










Cell Therapy to Regain Youth


As cell rejuvenation is one of the major processes involved in slowing down the ageing process, we need it to regain a youthful body. Currently, cell therapy is the most well-known anti-ageing method. By reducing cell damage, replacing damaged cells regularly,and repairing cells that are undergoing molecular or structural changes, we could achieve the goal of prolonging life. It has been proven to be safe and effective in slowing down the ageing process as well as revitalising our body and improving our body functions.
Many biologists believed that the future breakthrough in the medical field lies on structure renewal. Through cell treatment, cell replacement and replenishment, they solve the problems of aging and diseases attack, and bring about an opportunity to restore youth.


Therapeutic Effects & Benefits


Ovine Placenta brings you unprecedented benefits. Below are some proven benefits of ovine placenta to users :


Long-standing, natural enemy: Ageing



When we reach 25 years old, the rate of cell death in our body will slowly overtake the rate of cell growth. This will reduce the number of normal, functioning cells in our organs and increase the workload of the remaining ones. At the same time, we will gradually age as our skin form wrinkles after slowly losing its soft, supple and elastic quality. On top of natural ageing, air pollution, unhealthy eating habits, late nights, smoking, alcohol and other factors will also speed up ageing in our body.

As we age, our skin cells lose its vitality. Our skin becomes thinner and we lose subcutaneous fat. This will cause our skin to lose its protective lining and elasticity, and become dry and coarse. Furthermore, our skin’s ability to repair itself will also decrease with time.

Bincho-tan or white charcoal is a traditional charcoal of Japan.

It dates to the Edo period, when during the Genroku era, a craftsman named Bitchu-ya Chozaemon began to produce it in Tanabe, Wakayama.

The raw material is oak, specifically ubame oak (Quercus phillyraeoides), now the official tree of Wakayama Prefecture.

Charcoal offers numerous beneficial effects that are exploited to make a wide array of products, from everyday items to beautifying agents.

Charcoal is attracting attention because its unique characteristics can be used in many ways.

It has so many tiny cavities oriented in so many directions that one gram of charcoal has a surface area of about 250 m2. The cavities can attach different substances to their walls, then release them later.

For example, they absorb moisture from humid air, then release it during dry conditions. This makes charcoal an excellent humidity regulator.

Charcoal has other benefits, too: it absorbs unpleasant room odors and harmful substances; it generates negative ions that are said to put people in a better frame of mind; and it exerts a far-infrared effect that supposedly improves blood circulation.
Researchers in Japan are examining these benefits, exploring new uses to develop innovative products like water purifiers (for drinking and bathing), agents to keep vegetables and other foods fresh, soil enhancers, humidity regulators for the walls and floors of homes, and deodorants.
