Benefits of Drinking Warm Lemon Water in the Morning...!


Instead of getting a cup of coffee, why not replace it with a warm water lemon drink!? Below are the good factors to consider.

1. Boosts your immune system: Lemons are high in vitamin C, which is great for fighting colds. They’re high in potassium, which stimulates brain and nerve function. Potassium also helps control blood pressure.

2. Balances pH: Drink lemon water everyday and you’ll reduce your body’s overall acidity. Lemon is one of the most alkaline foods around. Yes, lemon has citric acid but it does not create acidity in the body once metabolized.

3. Helps with weight loss: Lemons are high in pectin fiber, which helps fight hunger cravings. It also has been shown that people who maintain a more alkaline diet lose weight faster.

4. Aids digestion: Lemon juice helps flush out unwanted materials. It encourages the liver to produce bile which is an acid that required for digestion. Efficient digestion reduces heartburn and constipation.

5. Is a diuretic: Lemons increase the rate of urination in the body, which helps purify it. Toxins are, therefore, released at a faster rate which helps keep your urinary tract healthy.

6. Clears skin: The vitamin C component helps decrease wrinkles and blemishes. Lemon water purges toxins from the blood which helps keep skin clear as well. It can actually be applied directly to scars to help reduce their appearance.

7. Freshens breath: Not only this, but it can help relieve tooth pain and gingivitis. The citric acid can erode tooth enamel, so you should monitor this.

8. Relieves respiratory problems: Warm lemon water helps get rid of chest infections and halt those pesky coughs. It’s thought to be helpful to people with asthma and allergies too.

9. Keeps you zen: Vitamin C is one of the first things depleted when you subject your mind and body to stress. As mentioned previously, lemons are chock full of vitamin C.

10. Helps kick the coffee habit: After taking a glass of warm lemon water, most people suggests of less craving for coffee in the morning.

Why it has to be warm water not cold? Cold water likely provides a shock or stress factor to the body. It takes energy for your body to process cold water.

The recipe is really simple - a cup of warm water (not hot) and the juice from half of a lemon.

Details about Vitamin E

Vitamin E is essential to our bodies and is found in many foods, including olive oil, nuts, chicken, eggs, fruit, green leafy vegetables, whole grains, and meat. It is also taken in supplement form as alpha-tocopherol.

When consumed in amounts below the upper tolerable limits, vitamin E is generally considered to be safe. However, taking too much vitamin E, especially in supplement form, may not be wise.

The tolerable upper amounts that are recommended based on age:

Children 1-3 years: 300 IU/day (200 mg)

Children ages 4-8: 450 IU/day (300 mg)

Children ages 9-13: 900 IU/day (600 mg)

Adolescents ages 14-18: 1,200 IU/day (800 mg)

Adults (including pregnant and breastfeeding women): 1,500 IU/day (1,000 mg)

Here are the contraindications and side effects of vitamin E:

Stomach Effects

Although rare, some people may experience digestive compaints including nausea, diarrhea, and stomach pain.

Head Effects

Dizziness, fatigue, headache, and blurry vision have all been reported.

Rash

Rash has been reported when taking vitamin E supplements, but it is more common when using vitamin E topically.

Pregnancy

Taking more than the upper recommended limit during pregnancy has been linked with a risk of heart defects in the fetus. High amount of vitamins E and Ctaken together during pregnancy could potentially heighten the risk of high blood pressure (gestational hypertension.)

Stroke Risk

Research has found that vitamin E may slightly raise the risk of hemorrhagic stroke, which is characterized by bleeding in the brain. On the other hand, vitamin E seems to prevent ischemic stroke, which is caused by obstruction to a blood vessel that supplies blood to the brain.

Increased Risk of Death

While there is little chance of a sudden overdose on vitamin E, some controversial studies have found that taking large amounts of it over the longterm is associated with a slight increase in the risk of death from all causes. More studies need to be done to confirm this, but to be safe just make sure not to go above the upper limits recommended.

Smokers

One study found that vitamin E may increase the risk of tuberculosis in men who smoke and also take high doses of vitamin E.

Bleeding

Some people have reported nosebleed or excess bleeding while supplementingwith vitamin A. There is a concern that people taking blood thinners such as heparin, warfarin, aspirin, and NSAIDs may have an increase in bleeding. People with vitamin K deficiency or who have bleeding disorders should not take vitamin E supplements without medical supervision.

Benifits of HONEY


Honey

The sticky sweet stuff of bees isn't just something to add a little
flavor to your tea-- it's nature's very own elixir for a much
healthier life-- one that you and I undoubtedly do not have. So, the
next time you decide to swat a bee, take some time to appreciate the
little stinger and all its hard work.

1. Honey can make you younger! Or at least look it.
Honey contains antioxidants, which basically reverse aging by
neutralizing the free radicals our body releases during oxidation.
If that's too complicated, think of it this way: free radicals can
damage our body, but honey and its antioxidants clean up all these
icky radicals, and heal the body in so many ways. The darker the
honey, the more antioxidants it contains.

2. Honey can make you sexy.
Honey goes down easily, and for people with digestive problems, this
is one medicine you definitely won't mind having a spoonfull of!
Although it contains more calories than table sugar, it eases the
digestive system by breaking down energy calories faster-- so, you
get twice the amount of energy, and twice the amount of power to
burn it all out! Diarrhea and stomach flu are common ailments, and
honey's antibacterial and moisture-retaining properties help flush
out all the bad stuff that's been plaguing you.

3. Honey makes your immune system mighty.
Honey is a natural energizer, and aside from providing energy when
you need it most, it also helps strengthen the immune system by
shielding it against bacteria that can cause colds and flu. Cough
and sore throats can also be easily cured with some warm honey and
lemon, because its antimicrobial properties kill the germs breeding
in your mouth while soothing the irritated area at the same time.

4. Honey is nature's band aid.
Honey is a natural antiseptic. Apply a little warm honey on a cut,
wound, or burn and the antimicrobial agents in it will prevent
infections and promote skin growth. Bacteria doesn't survive in
honey, so you'll be far away from gangrene if you've got a little
pot of the sweet stuff lying around!

5. Honey makes your skin glow and your hair shine.
Honey has the incredible ability of trapping in moisture, one thing
we definitely need if dull hair and skin are a problem! Asides from
healing the body from the inside, the moisture that honey attracts
feeds our skin cells and promotes tissue growth. Using it as a
facial mask or a hair conditioner is like providing yourself with a
boost of nutrients that can help restore and heal drying areas. A
little honey every day will make you bloom in no time!

Be-Aware of What you EAT...!


Live Life Without Limits! Share this with your love ones.

The top five cancer-causing foods are:

1. Hot dogs
Because they are high in nitrates, the Cancer Prevention Coalition
advises that children eat no more than 12 hot dogs a month. If you
can't live without hot dogs, buy those made without sodium nitrate..

2. Processed meats and bacon
Also high in the same sodium nitrates found in hot dogs, bacon, and other processed meats raise the risk of heart disease. The saturated
fat in bacon also contributes to cancer.

3. Doughnuts
Doughnuts are cancer-causing double trouble. First, they are made with white flour, sugar, and hydrogenated oils, then fried at high temperatures. Doughnuts, says Adams , may be the worst food you can possibly eat to raise your risk of cancer.

4. French fries
Like doughnuts, French fries are made with hydrogenated oils and then fried at high temperatures. They also contain cancer- causing acryl amides which occur during the frying process. They should be called cancer fries, not French fries, said Adams .

5. Chips, crackers, and cookies
All are usually made with white flour and sugar. Even the ones whose labels claim to be free of trans-fats generally contain small amounts of trans-fats.

BRAIN DAMAGING HABITS

1. No Breakfast
People who do not take breakfast are going to have a lower blood sugar level. This leads to an insufficient supply of nutrients to the brain causing brain degeneration.

2. Overeating
It causes hardening of the brain arteries, leading to a decrease in
mental power.

3. Smoking
It causes multiple brain shrinkage and may lead to Alzheimer disease.

4. High Sugar consumption
Too much sugar will interrupt the absorption of proteins and nutrients
causing malnutrition and may interfere with brain development.

5. Air Pollution
The brain is the largest oxygen consumer in our body. Inhaling
polluted air decreases the supply of oxygen to the brain, bringing
about a decrease in brain efficiency.

6. Sleep Deprivation
Sleep allows our brain to rest. Long term deprivation from sleep will
accelerate the death of brain cells.

7. Head covered while sleeping
Sleeping with the head covered increases the concentration of carbon dioxide and decrease concentration of oxygen that may lead to brain damaging effects.

8. Working your brain during illness
Working hard or studying with sickness may lead to a decrease in
effectiveness of the brain as well as damage the brain.

9. Lacking in stimulating thoughts
Thinking is the best way to train our brain, lacking in brain stimulation thoughts may cause brain shrinkage.

10. Talking Rarely
Intellectual conversations will promote the efficiency of the brain

The main causes of liver damage are:

1. Sleeping too late and waking up too late are main cause.

2. Not urinating in the morning.

3. Too much eating.

4. Skipping breakfast.

5. Consuming too much medication.

6. Consuming too much preservatives, additives, food coloring, and
artificial sweetener.

7. Consuming unhealthy cooking oil. As much as possible reduce cooking oil use when frying, which includes even the best cooking oils like olive oil. Do not consume fried foods when you are tired, except if
the body is very fit.

8. Consuming raw (overly done) foods also add to the burden of liver. Veggies should be eaten raw or cooked 3-5 parts. Fried veggies should be finished in one sitting, do not store.

We should prevent this without necessarily spending more. We just have to adopt a good daily lifestyle and eating habits. Maintaining good eating habits and time condition are very important for our bodies to absorb and get rid of unnecessary chemicals according to "schedule."

DO TAKE CARE OF YOUR HEALTH...

Benifits of Banana


'' BANANAS...''
A very interesting FACTS

Never, put your banana in the refrigerator!!!...
This is interesting. After reading this, you'll never look at a banana in the same way again.

Bananas contain three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy.

Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world's leading athletes.

But energy isn't the only way a banana can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.

DEPRESSION:
According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.

PMS:
Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.

ANEMIA:
High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.

BLOOD PRESSURE:
This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit's ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.

BRAIN POWER:
200 students at a Twickenham (Middlesex) school ( England ) were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.

CONSTIPATION:
High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.

HANGOVERS:
One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system.

HEARTBURN:
Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.

MORNING SICKNESS:
Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.

MOSQUITO BITES:
Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation.

NERVES:
Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system..

Overweight and at work? Studies at the Institute of Psychology in Austria found pressure at work leads to gorging on comfort food like chocolate and chips. Looking at 5,000 hospital patients, researchers found the most obese were more likely to be in high-pressure jobs. The report concluded that, to avoid panic-induced food cravings, we need to control our blood sugar levels by snacking on high carbohydrate foods every two hours to keep levels steady.

ULCERS:
The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in over-chronicler cases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL:
Many other cultures see bananas as a 'cooling' fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. In Thailand , for example, pregnant women eat bananas to ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.

So, a banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare it to an apple, it has FOUR TIMES the protein, TWICE the carbohydrate, THREE TIMES the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals.. It is also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around So maybe its time to change that well-known phrase so that we say, 'A BANANA a day keeps the doctor away!'

PASS IT ON TO YOUR FRIENDS...
PS: Bananas must be the reason monkeys are so happy all the time! I will add one here; want a quick shine on our shoes?? Take the INSIDE of the banana skin, and rub directly on the shoe...polish with dry cloth. Amazing fruit !!!
