**  Imagine There’s No Sickness: **

It’s Easy In Cheese Shoes!

Imagine a world free of disease. Imagine you never had to visit a hospital. Imagine being able to heal loved ones and cure diseases for which there is currently no cure. Then imagine no more. The future is here and surprisingly, it has been around for many years.

You may be unaware of significant development in the holistic health field recently discovered to have been common practise throughout Europe during the 18th Century. This discovery could revolutionise health for millions of people around the planet, reducing pressures on ailing public health systems and hospitals, struggling to cope with an ageing population and increasing incidents of infectious diseases and serious debilitating illnesses, such as arthritis and chronic pain. It may both surprise and excite you to discover that the secret is ‘cheese shoes’!

Important to note, there is a very specific type of cheese and therapeutic use. It is essential that the shoes are crafted from ‘Dunlop cheese’. Dunlop is a mild [|cheese] or 'sweet-milk cheese' from [|Dunlop] in [|East Ayrshire], [|Scotland] .It resembles a soft [|Cheddar cheese] in [|texture]. While it fell out of popularity some time after the end of the [|Second World War], it is now appreciated for its value in various recipes and clinically tested health benefits.

 In the early 18th century Barbara Gilmour   successfully manufactured a type of cheese until then unknown in Scotland, being made from unskimmed milk from  Ayrshire cows. Her process was copied by her neighbours and 'Dunlop cheese' came into such demand, that whether made by Barbara, her neighbours, or by the housewives of adjoining villages, it found a ready market. Experimentation with the cheese and exploration of possible uses led to the utilisation of the melted form in footbaths. The difficulty of keeping the cheese in a fluid state meant early practitioners found themselves set in buckets of firm, but highly enjoyable, buckets of cheese. These were found to be cumbersome and hindered people in their daily routine until an unknown designer crafted the ‘Dunlop’ cheese into footwear. Early designs were crude an difficult to walk in but as developments were made more practical and comfortable shoes, resembling clogs were created.  During this time, villagers in the town reported unusually long and healthy lives, some villagers reportedly living up to 120 years old. At the time, John Rutherford was a Scottish physician and professor at the [|University of Edinburgh Medical School]. Hearing of the unusually healthy and energetic people of the area, he managed to determine the source of their health to be the cheese shoes. Special enzymes in the cheese were discovered to have remarkably beneficial effects on the body’s immune, circulatory and nervous systems. Professor Rutherford’s research was recently uncovered in dusty storeroom during renovations in the University of Edinburgh Medical School, prompting Researchers at the University to further uncover the mysteries of the cheese.

 These clinical studies have led to the reemergence of this cottage, cheese industry. The local production of Dunlop cheese ceased in around 1940, and was only been sporadic since the Second World War, however Dunlop and other cheeses are as of 2007 made at West Clerkland Farm just outside Stewarton on the Dunlop Road.  The beautiful simplicity of this solution to many current ills, faced particularly by older members of our community, must not be denied. The amount of money saved to the community for pain relief, cold and flu vaccines, heart disease treatments, to name but a few, is but one important impetus to include this treatment immediately into our lives in chemists and delicatessens across the country!
