Food Phyte

Hello everyone, sorry to have been missing for a while. As we as a world are still stressed by post covid, post lockdowns and lockouts, staff shortages and the global cost of living issues bought on by the Russian invasion in the Ukraine; now is not the time to launch a new business for us. This is still a project that I intend to do, but not for a while.

foodPhyte (Soul's Abode Pty Ltd) acknowledges all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Traditional Custodians of Country and recognises their continuing connection to land, sea, culture and community. We pay our respects to Elders past and present.

In the area we live, work and play, we acknowledge the peoples of the Awabakal, Worimi, Darkinung, Wonnarua, Geawegal, Kamilaroi and Wiradjuri as the first Australians and that we, non-indigenous Australians, occupy these lands without treaty, due respect or by peaceful agreement.

On January 26th, we acknowledge the date as a day of invasion and the begining of centuries of genocide, displacement and the marginalisation of this nation's indigenous population.

Please take some time on the 26th of January to acknowledge the truth of Australia's path to today's nation.

To learn the traditional custodians of the land you occupy go to

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people should be aware that this website contains images, voices and names of deceased persons.

This is a nice wrap on the lifestyle medicine benefits missed by public health educators during this pandemic.

An opportunity to give people another choice in avoiding serious illness from covid19.

Modern medicine missed an opportunity to teach people how to make their bodies resistant to diseases.

Sorry for being a little quiet folks, covid situation sort of dampening forward momentum.

But new things coming soon and project still has a pulse.

Hey there friends of FoodPhyte!

It has been a while since you have heard from us. As has been the case for businesses and projects worldwide, the impact on progress by the covid19 pandemic was significant.

Rather than fighting against it, I decided that it was time to sit back and let things settle into whatever the next phase would look like.

Although the covid19 issues are going to be with all of us for some time, parts of the world are moving slowly into making forward steps again and hopefully the rest will be able to do the same soon.

The FoodPhyte project is still on the table and will start becoming an active growing thing again very soon.

There have been some ongoing website issues (malware) which are all but sorted out.

The next steps include setting up a youtube channel to provide industry highlights, news and interviews with those doing great work; building on the momentum of movement towards a kinder and healthier lifestyle.

Looking forward to opening up physical doors and welcoming you all into a safe, kind and relaxing place to eat, meet and nourish.

Andrew

2020 Update

Hope you are all well and happy.

We of course, like many have had our project plans scuttled by the current situation.

Even though we are working in the background towards the launch of foodPHYTE as a wonderful place to meet and make new friends, over the best spiced tea in town; this is unlikely for sometime.

In the meantime, we will start working on stage two first; the building of an online community portal. News, articles, interviews, recipes and webinars. If possible a community discussion forum facility.

Go to www.foodphyte.net and subscribe to our friends list so we can keep you updated. There is a special gift coming soon to that group 😃

Looking forward to serving you soon. Love this new icon disc graphic for foodPHYTE's purpose.

What a great idea for Australian hospital dietitians to get in place nationwide.

The Physicians Committee—a nonprofit with more than 12,000 doctor members—applauds New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo for signing into law on Dec. 6 a landmark bill that guarantees hospital patients a healthful plant-based option at every meal.
