FOCUS ON HEALTH
Centuries old folk remedy
supports good health!
A fermented liquid health tonic offers
an array of powerful health benefits. It
is none other than the popular apple
cider vinegar or ACV. Since the time of
Hippocrates – the “Father of Medicine”
– ACV has been renowned for its
curative properties.
In his popular book “ARTHRITIS and
FOLK MEDICINE”, DR. D.C. Jarvis
reports how he found that Vermonters
who regularly consumed ACV and
Honey had excellent health with many
putting in a vigorous day’s work on the
farm even when well into their eighties.
He also noted the effects of ACV and H
on arthritis to be remarkable with many
patients reporting almost total relief
after taking a course of the mixture.
Dr. Jarvis surmised that the acid and
potassium in cider vinegar counteracted
calcium deposits and helped the body
control calcium use. He also noted that
Vermonters who consumed ACV and H
around meal time had excellent blood
pressure and circulation. The reason he
found was that protein foods thickened
the blood and vinegar thinned it. As
the blood thickens it cannot pass as
easily and quickly through the blood
vessels and capillaries. This poor blood
flow would reduce cellular health by
limiting nutrients to the cells as well
as waste elimination from the cells. To
prevent cell damage the body naturally
increases blood pressure but this puts
more stress on the blood vessels, organs
and heart. Having ACV and H with
meals will help prevent protein raising
the blood pressure. It also contributes to
a feeling of greater well-being because
the thinner blood circulates quickly and
more easily through the blood vessels.
Dr. Jarvis found regular consumption of
CV and H to be an excellent health tonic
with numerous health attributes.
ACV is highly nutritious as it contains
all the goodness of the apple in a
form that is readily accepted by the
body. Good health starts with good
digestion and assimilation of nutrients.
ACV taken before food will stimulate
and promote healthy digestion and
assimilation of vital nutrients for good
health. A well-functioning digestive
system helps prevent disease by
neutralising any toxic substances that
enter the body.
It is important to note not all ACV
is produced in the traditional way and
results are likely to prove disappointing
with these other vinegars.
Marshall’s Premium ACV and ACV
with 20% Manuka Honey is produced
in Canterbury from organic whole
apples in the traditional way. It is double
strength so you can use less.

OPTIMISTIC: Jolt Dance founder Lyn Cotton and dancer Carl Te Tone Huia
were meant to perform their original works in London this year, but it was
postponed due to Covid-19.
Challenging disability
through creative arts
• By Bea Gooding
CANTABRIANS will soon
be treated to a performance
which challenges
perspectives about dance
and disability in the
creative arts industry.
Representatives from Jolt
Dance company were due
to showcase their work at
performance art theatre
Lyric Hammersmith in
London during May but
it was cancelled due to
Covid-19.
Jolt founder Lyn Cotton
is feeling optimistic in spite
of the growing uncertainty
in the coming months.
“We’re looking at it
positively and view it as
a postponement, we still
want to show London what
New Zealand is capable
of,” she said.
“We’re not angry about
it, this is a time of patience
and reflection and it’s
given us an opportunity to
look at the work again in
more depth.”
Including Cotton, Jolt
dancers and tutors Carl
Huia, Aleasha Seaward,
Rochelle Waters and Renee
Ryan were meant to spend
a week in London to take
part in Amici Dance
Theatre Company’s 40thanniversary
celebrations
and raised $10,000 to do so.
Amici is also an inclusive
dance company and
invited the team to present
two original works, discuss
their achievements and
host teaching sessions.
They Call Me Sam is a
short film that chronicled
life with down syndrome
and challenges attitudes
about having a disability.
Takiwatanga is a performance
which is shaped
by Huia’s Māori culture
INCLUSIVITY: Georgia Scarsbrook, Hunter
McLintock, Brooke Joyce and Shanna Charles
are on a mission to break barriers within the
creative arts industry through dance.

and his lived experience of
autism.
The word “takiwatanga”
is used to describe autism
and means “in his or her
own time and space.”
Cotton met Amici
founder Wolfgang Strange
in 1995, and after spending
a few years under his wing,
she was inspired to open
her own dance studio with
a similar concept of breaking
barriers within the
disability community.
“Wolfgang was my
teacher for three years, and
when I came back to NZ I
set up my own Jolt classes
and it grew from there,”
she said.
“We take what the dancers
give us which shapes
our work - it’s not just
about participation, it’s
about excellence and for
people with disabilities to
have their voices heard.”
Not only do they offer
dance classes, teaching and
choreography training was
PEGASUS POST
also available which leads
to industry level pathways
through performance and
leadership.
Jolt’s “Move” programme
is the country’s only teacher
training programme for
people with disabilities,
taking their work into
mainstream schools to
teach non-disabled children.
Said Cotton: “All peer
pressure starts to drop
away when they come together
and dance. It’s okay
to be different.
“The bar was set low
for what people with disabilities
can achieve, and
now they’re playing catch
up because they’ve been
denied that opportunity
for so long.”
Jolt Dance celebrates
their 20th anniversary next
year and has since grown
to more than 150 dancers.
They will plan to showcase
their original works in
Christchurch in October.
