HEALTHY TIPS*: #3

...21. Gastric problem is also associated with ingesting too much meat and high fat food.

...22. HEART & UTERUS are linked together. Drinking 3000cc.-4000cc. of good filtered water with a healthy DETOXification diet will keep them healthy, too.

...23. There is no need to go for unnecessary check-ups, X-rays, CT scans [radiation is 5x...6x higher] are bad for the body since it kills thousands of cells and thus, weaken the body even further. Cancers and diseases are sometimes quite hard to detect in your yearly heath check-ups or blood tests. By the time they are detected, that part of the body has already been quite damaged. Always get a second opinion from another doctor before proceeding witht he recommended surgery. If it is LIVER disease, medication will destroy it further. Go on a proper DETOXification diet and sleep by 9PM daily will help the LIVER to recover faster.

...24. Vegetables and fruits high in Vitamin C will help DETOXify the poisons in the body, thus helping the organs to recover during the detoxification. Drinking lots of water will help the LIVER because URINE is one way of detoxification.

...25. Morning hours netween 5 AM-7AM is the best time for bowel movement, otherwise, the intestines might absorb the poisons from the digested matter to be distributed to the rest of the body, thus, slow poisoning of the body will occur. This will result in the body getting sick.

...26. Using KELP powder mixed in water can help stop itchy scalp.

...27. STONES in gall-bladder, liver, brain are usually poisons accumulated from animal protein and oily food.

...28. MINERALS- calcium, iron strengthen the kidney/bladder.

...29. A person having mild LIVER or kidney problems can eat fish and beans....ONLY after 4 months of DETOXification diet.

...30. If the white of the eyes of a person is yellow, it only means he has a LIVER and GALL BLADDER problem.

******************************


11. SLEEPing late for children is unhealthy. It weakens memory and intelligence.

12. Best healthy time to sleep is 9PM especially for people who are sick or are recovering from it.Do not sleep later than 11 PM. Lots of rest is good for the LIVER to recover. When using eye-cover during bedtime, use only pure cotton. Never use latex/rubber materials.

13. A DETOXification DIET helps the LIVER & INTESTINES to recover fast.Natural fresh food are best for the LIVER and overall well-being. Do not rely on packed, bottled, or canned health food/vitamins since they lack lots of natural and essential vitamins which can be derived from pure, unprocessed, natural food.

14. A balance of mental/emotional state of mind is very important to the total well-being. Too much stress of all kinds, loud noises, music, anger, irritation suppressed too long, pessimism, depressive moods, no goals in life, feeling life has no value, or blaming the world or everyone else for his life will further weaken the body system. When the LIVER is unhealthy, the person has bad temper and gets easily angry or irritated.

15．Giving out gas, and perspiration，and urine are ways of purging out the toxins from the body. Do not use too much air-conditioners because these suppress the body from perspiring. This natural way of purging helps reduce the load of the LIVER. Open the window for fresh air.

16. Giving warmth to any part of the body that is in pain will ease it. Or try soaking in a warm bath up to waist level. Be careful if you have heart problems. Do not soak till the chest areas lest the heart might get too stimulated.

17. Brown rice, wheat, oats, potatoes, sweet potatoes, yams and maize are all good, but we must be careful when buying these because they contain lots of pesticides. Maize and Brown rice contain B complex Vitamins. Organic food are better alternatives but may prove a bit costly.


18. Blood A type has higher chances of CANCER diseases.

19. Blood O type has higher chances of LIVER diseases.

20. WOMEN live longer because they are more even-tempered due to their menstruation cycle which expels the anger inside. It is better not to talk when a person is feeling angry. Breathe very slowly and .....

HEALTHY TIPS*: LIVER

• 1. LUNGS and BIG INTESTINES share the system. If one is sick or infected, the other will also be sick/infected.

• 2.When the LIVER is in pain, there is not much signs or symptoms to be detected. Before many cancers happen, usually the LIVER will be the frist to get sick.

• 3.LIVER filters out the poisons and it attacks all the viruses in the body.

• 4. 99% of Chinese have weak LIVERS because they eat a lot of meat and high, fatty food.

• 5.The LIVER's repair time is effective from 11 PM-to-3 AM. Therefore, sleeping late after 11 PM and having late supper [of high cholesterol and fatty food] two hours before sleeping weakens the LIVER because it does not have enough time to rest and regenerate. Even when one replaces that sleep later in the morning will not help.

• 6.If you get hungry just before bedtime, eat fruits and vegetables which is easy to digest. Meat takes about four hours to digest before it goes to the intestines. Meat cooked in oil takes about 12 hours before going into the intestines. This will provoke the Liver and the Digestive Tract to overwork in filtering the toxins thus, you will tend to feel tired when you wake up in the morning.

• 7.OIL is the main culprit that will weaken the functions of the LIVER and damage it. Medication cannot cure LIVER problem and will damage it even further.

• 8.Cold-pressed Olive Oil, carrots, cucmber, raw chili, garlic, onion, little bamboo [shoots], sea-salt, raddish, pumpkin, small fish are good for the body. Sesame Oil is OK.

• 9.Food Preservatives, Food Colorings, Bee-hoon is processed with Aluminum (causes Dementia), Bleach, syrup, pesticides are all bad for LIVER health. Wrong medication can shrink and damage the LIVER badly. Radiation from the Microwave destroys all the nutrients in the food.

• 10. Western medication is bad for the LIVER. Chinese medication is bad for the kidney. White raddish will disable the effects of Chinese medication.

GIRLFRIENDS

A YOUNG WIFE
sat on a sofa on hot, humid day,
drinkng iced tea, and visiting her mother.
As they talked about love, about marriage and
the responsibilities of life and the obligations of adulthood,
the mother clinked the ice cubes in her glass thoughtfully,
and turned a clear, sober glance at her daughter.

"DON'T FORGET your girlfriends," she advised,
swirling the tea leaves from the bottom of her glass.
"They'll be more important as you get older.
No matter how much you love your husband,
no matter how much you love the children you will have,
you are still going to need girlfriends.

REMEMBER TO go places with them. now and then;
do things with them. And remember that "girlfriends"
are not only your friends, but your sisters, your daughters,
and other relatives, too. You'll need other women, too.
Women always do."


`WHAT A funny piece of advise,' the young woman thought.
`Haven't I just gotten married?.....
Haven't I just joined the 'couple-world?'
I'm now a married woman, for goodness sake!
A grown-up! Not a young girl who needs girlfriends!
Surely, my husband and the family we'll start will
be all I need to make my ife worthwhile.

BUT SHE listened to her Mother;
She kept contact with her girlfriends
and made more each year.


AS THE years tumbled by, one after another,
she gradually came to understand that her Mom
really knew what she was talking about.

AS TIME and nature work their changes and mysteries
upon a woman, girlfriends are mainstays of her life.

I ASKED Moms all over and
here are the things they told me about Girlfriends:

• Girlfriends bring you Chicken Curry when you need help.

• Girlfriends keep your children and keep your secrets.

• Girlfriends give advice when you ask for it. Sometimes you take it, sometimes, you don't!
  

• Girlfriends don't always tell you, you're right, but they're usually honest.

• Girlfriends still love you, even when they don't agree with your choices.

• Girlfriends laugh with you and you don't need canned jokes just to start the laughter.

• Girlfriends pull you out of jams!

• Girlfriends help you get out of bad relationships.

• Girlfriends help you look for a new apartment, help you pack, and help you move.

• Girlfriends will give a party for your son or daughter.

• Girlfriends are there for you, in an instant, when hard times come.

• Girlfriends listen you lose a job or a friend.

• Girlfriends listen when your children break your heart.

• Girlfriends listen when you parents' minds and body fail.

• Girlfriends support you when the men in your life fail you down.

• Girlfriends help you pick up the pieces when men pack up and go.

• Girlfriends rejoice at what makes you happy, cries at what saddens you,
• and are ready to go out and kill at what makes you unhappy.

TOMATO

I like Tomatoes.
I use it almost every day for my usual Salad,
for making sauce and even my unusual Tomato Jam.
People all over the world have made use of
Tomatoes as well in more ways
than one can imagine.

Here is an interesting story about Tomatoes
and how it changed a man's life.

*****

A jobless man applied for a position as 'Office Boy' at Microsoft.
The HR Manager interviewed him and watched him clean the floor as part
of the test. "You are employed, " he said. "Give me your email address and I'll send you
the application form to fill in, as well as the date when you may start."

The man replied,
"But I don't have an email, much less a Computer."

"I am sorry," said the HR Manager.
"If you don't have an email address means
you do not exist. And who doesn't exist, cannot have a job."

The man left with no hope at all.
He didn't know what to do, with only $10 in his pocket.
He then decided to go to the Supermarket and bought a
10-kg. Tomato Crate. He then sold the Tomatoes
in a door-to-door round.
In less than two hours, he was able to double his capital.

He repeated the opeartion three times, and went home with $60.

The man realized that he can survive via this way,
and started to go everyday earlier, and return late.
Thus, his money doubled, even tripled every day.

Shortly, he bought a cart, then a truck,
and then he had his own fleet of delivery vehicles.

Five years later, the man has become one
of the biggest food retailers in the U.S.
He started to plan his family's future
and decided to have a life insurance.

He called an insurance broker and chose
a protection plan. When the conversation
was concluded, the broker asked him his email addy.

The man replied, "I don't have an email."

The broker answered curiously,
"You don't have an email,
and yet you have succeeded to build an empire.
Can you imagine what you could have been
if you had an email?!!"

The man thought for a while and replied,
"Yes, I'd be an office boy at Microsoft!"


******

MORAL of the Story:

• M1: Internet is NOT the solution to your life!
• M2: If you don't have internet, and work hard, you, too, can be a Millionaire!
• M3: If you are reading these via the internet, then you are closer to being an office boy/girl....than being a Millionaire!

>>>>>>

...AND PLEASE.....
do not bother to reply, nor ask me anything.....
because I am mulling on closing my internet connections

and go sell Tomatoes, instead!

Cheers!

GOLDEN WEEK

The EXODUS has begun:

People leave the city to go back to their hometown and some, those who have planned their trips since last year, have booked to a place of their dream. For some, this is a great time for bonding with their own family; some couples spirit away to the beach: Hawaii, Phuket, or anywhere else they consider Paradise. Still others prefer to go travelling alone to a quiet place where they can relax.

But for me who have experienced those long queues at airport check-in counters, I prefer the solitude and quiet of this place I now call my second-home!

I have no idea why this week is called Golden: I don't see anything 'gold' in this, anyway. But any rest day is sure welcome in the fast-paced Land of the Rising Sun.

What I know is that April 30 is SHOWA Day. It is the birthday of Emperor Hirohito, called Emperor Showa [ his reign is also called Showa]. The current Emperor -Akihito's [Hirohito's first son-] reign is called Heisei.

Then May 4 is Children's Day: a day for kids, sons, mostly. This is the time when big carps flags are festooned on bamboo poles in front of one's abode. It flies high and mighty as a symbol and to tell others in the neighborhood that there is an heir that resides in that house. Still male-dominated, ei?


With all these holidays celebrated one after the other, perhaps the Government deemed it right to grant Holidays in bulk. However, not all Companies go on Holiday. Some are open on May 1 & 2 . Transport Companies, likewise have their skeleton force on call. Of course, department stores make brisk business during these days. Almost all troop to stores for food, or just fancy shopping!

Almost all schools have been off since yesterday. Kids are seen everywhere: playing in parks, trouping the department stores, especially the teens whose giggly voices are heard in every nook.

And I have enough time to watch the movies......

on the tube!

LIFE

ONE DAY

a woman's husband died.
And on that clear, cold morning, in the warmth of their bedroom,
the wife was strruck with the pain on learning that sometimes,
there isn't anymore....

No more hugs, no more special moments to celebrate,
no more phone calls, just to chat....
no more "just one minute!"

Sometimes, what we care about the most
gets all used up and goes away,
never to return before we can say "Goodbye"
or say..."I Love You".....

So while we have it,
it's best we Love It,
Care for It,
Fix It when it's broken,
and
Heal It when It's sick.....


THIS
is true for marriage
and old cars,
and children with bad report cards
and dogs with bad hips
and aging parents and grandparents.

WE KEEP THEM
because they are worth it.

Some THINGS we keep.....
like an old friend who has moved away
or a classmate we grew up with.
There are just some things that make us happy,
no matter what.

LIFE
is important...
lik people we know who are special.
And so....we keep them close!


SOMETIMES,
we need to say what we feel.

Suppose one morning you never wake up....
do all your Love Ones, Friends included
KNOW you LOVE them?

I was thinking.....
I could die today....or tomorrow, or next week!
And I wondered if I had any wounds needing to be healed....
friendships that needed rekindling
or three words needing to be said.

LET
every one of your LoveOnes/Friends know
You LOVE them.
Even if you think that they don't love you back....
you would be amazed
at what those three little words and a smile can do.

AND
just in case, God calls me HOME...

I wanna say:

I LOVE YOU, guys!!

LIVE TODAY TO THE FULLEST.
TOMORROW IS NOT PROMISED!

CHOICES, Choices!

A MAN
wanted to get married.
He was having trouble choosing among three likely candidates.
He gives each woman a present of $ 5,000 each and watch
what they do with the money.

****
THE FIRST
does a total make over.
She goes to a fancy beauty salon,
gets her hair done, new make up,
and buys several new outfits
and dresses up very nicely for the man.
She tells him that she has done this to be more attractive for him
because she loves him so much.

The man was impressed!

****

THE SECOND
goes shopping to buy the man gifts.
She gets him a new set of Golf clubs,
some new gizmos for his computer
and some expensive clothes.
As she presents these gifts, she tells him
that she has spent all the money on him
becasue she loves him so much.

AGAIN, the man was impressed!

****

THE THIRD
invests the money in a stock market.
She earns several times the $5,000.
She gives him back the $5,000 and reinvests
the remainder in a joint account.
She tells him that she wants to save for their future
because she loves him so much!

OBVIOUSLY, the man was impressed!

****

THE MAN
thought for a long time what each woman had done
with the money he had given her.....


THEN
he married the one with
the biggest boobs!

MEN
are like that, you know!

There is
more money spent
on Breast Implants and Viagra today
than on Alzheimer's research.

This means that by 2040,
there should be more elderly population
with perky boobs and huge erections
............
and absolutely no recollections
with what to do with them!

Think....


.........I can only .....


LAUGH!

Hee-Haw!

LINDOL

I
was surfing the net last Sunday
when I felt dizzy.....
I looked around and saw the overhead circular hanging light swaying.
Another earthquake, I mumbled.
I glanced at the TV set which was on
[I always do that, listen to whatever is said on TV
becoz I want to retain as many words as I can remember]
and saw 9:43.

ALL the while I thought it was gonna stop.
But no...it continued.
The IRORI's [Japanese style hearth]
hanging iron clamp was swaying to and fro!
Geez! This must be big, I said to myself!

By that time, I wasn't feeling well....
I felt nauseated....

I stood and looked out of the window.
That was a mistake. I felt nauseated all the more.
So I went back to my chair and sat.

Soon after, news and updates have flashed on the screen.
The center was somewhere in the sea beside Noto Peninsula,
in Ishikawa-Ken. Magnitude was placed at 6.9,
considered a major one.

Living in Japan has its risks.
And the greatest one is the fact that Japan
is one of the most earthquake-prone countries in the world.
It lies on four tectonic plates.
Hence, earthquakes are as common as waking up each morning
and seeing the Sun.

Knowing this, the Japanese as a people
has been preparing for earthquakes all their lives.
The SDF are efficient and response to disasters are
done in no time.

But then again,
I wanna go home where my heart lies.....

I have had enough of earthquakes to last me a lifetime.
I wish to wake up in the Land where
I could relax and not be worried when the next earthquake
would be. I know Inang Bayan have had its share of earthquakes
but not this often.....
Here, we suffer jolts as many as thousands in a day!

Babalik na ako sa Pilipinas!!!!!!
