to treat existing ailments like malaria and arthritis — but it is cautioned

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The medicines have
been used for centuries to treat malaria, which is caused by a parasite, unlike
the coronavirus. Some studies have found it can still be effective in treating
and preventing SARS, a close relative of COVID-19.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
One of those studies was conducted in primate cells in 2005
amid the SARS outbreak, but never used as treatment as the disease was
contained, Dr. Len Horovitz, a pulmonologist and internist at Lenox Hill
Hospital told The Post.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“There was no reason to use it at that time but looking
back, there was a feeling it could be used to reduce the possibility of being
infected or as treatment,” for coronavirus, especially since “we know that its
tolerated in people,” Horovitz said<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
A recent French study of hydroxychloroquine, sold under the
brand name Plaquenil, was also promising — reporting that after 24 patients
were treated for six days with the drug, the virus had disappeared in all but a
quarter of them. But the research hasn’t yet been peer reviewed or published.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Horovitz warned that the drug hasn’t been approved as
treatment for coronavirus.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“If you decide you’re going to take chloroquine, it doesn’t
mean you should abandon all the prevention methods — it doesn’t take the place
of social distancing,” he said.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine are also among four
treatments being tested in an international clinical trial announced Wednesday
by the World Health Organization.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Originally tested as an Ebola treatment, Gilead Sciences’
experimental antiviral drug Remdesivir has been found to work against SARS and
MERS, two other coronaviruses.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The drug works by shutting off the virus’ ability to
replicate inside cells.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Multiple trials are underway to evaluate the drug in China
and other countries, and in the US, last month the National Institutes of
Health began a randomized trial for the treatment of COVID-19 using the
antiviral.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“There are promising therapies produced by Gilead and that’s
Remdesivir,” Trump said Thursday. “It seems to have a very good result, having

<div class="MsoNormal">
The Japanese anti-flu drug developed by a subsidiary of
Fujifilm <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>has had encouraging outcomes in clinical
trials in China.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Patients who were given the drug in Shenzhen tested negative
for the virus after a median of four days after becoming positive. That was
compared with a median of 11 days for those who were not given the medicine,
Japanese public broadcaster NHK said.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Chest scans supported the findings, revealing less damage in
those who took the drug. But some officials said it may not be effective in
people who are already severely ill.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">LLPINAVIR AND
RITONAVIR (KALETRA)<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Lab studies have suggested that the HIV drug Kaletra — which
is a combination of antivirals lopinavir and ritonavir — could be effective in
treating COVID-19.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The meds belong to a class of drugs known as protease
inhibitors, which block a key enzyme that helps viruses replicate. Previous
studies found the mixture was helpful in preventing SARS from maturing and
replicating.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Doctors in Thailand and Japan have reported using lopinavir
and ritonavir to successfully treat the coronavirus — but a recent study in
China of 200 seriously ill patients found that it had no benefit.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="paragraph">
<span style="font-size: small;"><u><strong>ANTI-CAKING AGENT</strong></u><br /><br />An
anti-caking agent is an additive placed in powdered or granulated
materials, such as table salt, to prevent the formation of lumps and for
easing packaging, transport, and consumption.<br /><br />Anticaking agents
function either by adsorbing excess moisture, or by coating particles
and making them water repellent. Some anticaking agents are soluble in
water; others are soluble in alcohols or other organic solvents. Calcium
silicate (CaSiO3), a common anti-caking agent which is added to table
salt etc. adsorbs both water and oil. Although they are food additives,
anti-caking agents have other applications too. For example, anticaking
agents are popularly used in non-food items like road salt, fertilizers,
cosmetics, synthetic detergents, and in other such manufacturing
applications.<br /><br /><br />An anti-caking agent in salt is denoted in the
ingredients, for example, as "anti-caking agent (554)", which is sodium
aluminosilicate, a man-made product. This product is present in many
commercial table salts as well as dried milks, egg mixes, sugar
products, and flours. In Europe, sodium ferrocyanide (535) and potassium
ferrocyanide (536) are more common anti-caking agents in table salt.
Natural anticaking agents used in more expensive table salt include
calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate.<br /><br />Some anti-caking
agents are soluble in water; others are soluble in alcohols or other
organic solvents. They function either by adsorbing excess moisture, or
by coating particles and making them water repellent. Calcium silicate
(CaSiO3), a commonly used anti-caking agent, added to e.g. table salt,
absorbs both water and oil.<br /><br />Anti-caking agents are also used in
non-food items such as road salt, fertilizers,cosmetics,synthetic
detergents, and in manufacturing applications.<br /><br /><strong><span style="font-size: medium;">Examples of Anti Caking Agents Food</span></strong><span style="font-size: medium;"><br />Some of the common examples of foods that contain anti-caking agents include:</span></span><ul>
<li><span style="font-size: medium;">Vending machine powders (coffee, cocoa, soup)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: medium;">Milk and cream powders</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: medium;">Grated cheese</span></li>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Yogurt comes from milk and therefore, it is loaded with
several essential nutrients like calcium, vitamin B-2, vitamin B-12, potassium,
and magnesium. An advantage with yogurt is that it is light on the stomach and
easier to digest than milk.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>1. Good for Digestion
<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Lactobacillus bulgaricus is a bacterium which accelerates
bowel movement and cannot be found in any food other than yogurt. The lactic
acid in the yogurt kills the malicious bacteria in the bowel, preventing
diarrhea and helps to create a healthy inner bowel environment. In other words,
we can say that this fermented dairy product is a bowel cleanser. Yogurt
increases calcium absorption after being consumed and stimulates the saturation
hormone in the bowels as it features high quality animal fat and protein.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Yogurt or curd is a great probiotic (an ingredient that
contains live bacteria). These good and beneficial bacteria are known to
improve gut activity, soothe inflamed digestive systems and treat an upset
stomach.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>2. Stronger Immunity<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The live active cultures found in yogurt fight
disease-causing germs and keep your gut and intestinal tract protected. A
scientific study conducted by a team of researchers at the University of Vienna
in Austria found that eating a 7-ounce dose of yogurt (about 200 grams) was
just as effective in boosting immunity as popping pills.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>3. Beautiful and Healthy
Skin<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Curd has a moisturizing effect on your skin and it heals
your dry skin naturally. A lot of people suffer from acne due to certain
gastrointestinal problems. Curd helps in marinating a happy and active gut
which leads to healthy skin. Yogurt is an excellent beauty ingredient for face
packs too as it contains lactic acid that acts as an exfoliator and clears off
all dead cells and blemishes.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>4. Reduces High Blood
Pressure<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
A research presented at the High Blood Pressure Research
Scientific Sessions of the American Heart Association (AHA) showed that people
who ate more non-fat yogurt were 31 percent less likely to develop high blood
pressure than others. The special proteins in yogurt along with nutrients like
potassium and magnesium help in lowering high blood pressure and promoting a
healthy heart.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>5. Prevents Vaginal
Infections<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Yogurt is also important for women's health. The
lactobacillus acidophilus bacteria found in yogurt prevents the production of
candida (a type of fungus) and vaginitis in the vagina and kill the yeast by
kills by producing hydrogen peroxide. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>6. Good For The Bones<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
A cup of yogurt (250grams) contains about 275mg of calcium
as per the United States Department of Agriculture. A daily dose of calcium not
only helps in maintaining bone density but also strengthens them. It is low in
fat and calories and thus, may also help in keeping your weight in check.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>7. Balances Your
Blood Sugar<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Studies show that the blood sugar levels of people who
consume un-fermented and non-skimmed yogurt rally. Moreover, as yogurt is a food
that is absorbed slowly in the bowels, your blood sugar is affected by it much
later.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>8. Good against

(Immunoglobulin E) and it reveals itself on the skin. Yogurt prevents atopic
diseases such as dermatitis, asthma and food allergies. As it balances the
intestinal flora, yogurt minimalizes the allergic reaction</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Sesame
seeds are loaded with minerals that are incredibly important for our bodies.
Sesame seeds in particular are great sources of magnesium, calcium, iron, zinc,
molybdenum, and selenium! Copper has been shown to help relieve inflammatory
diseases such as arthritis. Other minerals found in sesame seeds such as magnesium,
calcium, and zinc have been shown to help with colon cancer, prevent migraines,
reduce PMS symptoms, reduce bone loss, support general bone health, support
respiratory health, support heart health and reduce cholesterol levels!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

diabetes, and it can also improve plasma glucose in hypersensitive diabetics.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

support blood sugar control.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Additionally,
these seeds contain pinoresinol, a compound that may help regulate blood sugar
by inhibiting the action of the digestive enzyme maltase. Maltase breaks down
the sugar maltose, which is used as a sweetener for some food products. It’s
also produced in your gut from the digestion of starchy foods like bread and
pasta. If pinoresinol inhibits your digestion of maltose, this may result in lower
blood sugar levels<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Sesame
seeds are high in magnesium, which may help lower blood pressure. Additionally,
lignans, vitamin E, and other antioxidants in sesame seeds may help prevent
plaque buildup in your arteries, potentially maintaining healthy blood pressure.
The same study above reveals how sesame oil lowers blood pressure in diabetics.
Sesame seeds are full of magnesium – a key nutrient known to help lower blood

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">The
lignans in sesame seeds function as antioxidants, which help fight oxidative
stress — a chemical reaction that may damage your cells and increase your risk
of many chronic diseases. Additionally, sesame seeds contain a form of vitamin

tropics. The cherry-sized fruits are highly nutritious containing large
quantities of vitamin C. Known as Pitanga throughout Brazil or Ñangapirí
in surrounding countries, it is a large shrub or small tree with a
conical form, growing slowly to 8 meters in height. The Surinam Cherry
is often used in gardens as a hedge or screen. The fruit is high in
Vitamin C, and its predominant food use is as a flavoring and base for
jams and jellies. The tree was introduced to Bermuda for ornamental
purposes but is out of control, and is now listed as invasive in
Bermuda.</span></span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
Mint, the popular herb, has several benefits which include
proper digestion and weight loss, relief from nausea, depression, fatigue, and
headache. It is used in the treatment of asthma, memory loss, and skin care
problems. This well-known mouth and breath freshener is scientifically known as
Mentha and has more than two dozen species and hundreds of varieties.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Health Benefits<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Most of us are familiar with the refreshing application of
mint, but it has far more to offer than that. The health benefits of mint
include the following:<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Aids in Digestion<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Mint is a great appetizer or palate cleanser. It also
promotes digestion and soothes the stomach in case of indigestion or
inflammation. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The aroma of the herb activates the salivary glands in your
mouth as well as the glands which secrete the digestive enzymes, thereby
facilitating digestion. These attributes are why mint is extensively used in
the culinary arts. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Treats Nausea &
Headache<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Mint leaves, especially freshly crushed ones, help you deal
with nausea and headache. The strong and refreshing aroma of mint is a quick
and effective remedy for nausea. Use mint oil or any other product having a
mint flavor and your stomach issues will be alleviated. This herb is a
naturally soothing substance, so it can alleviate the inflammation and
temperature RISE that is often associated with headaches and migraines.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Prevents Respiratory
Disorders<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The strong aroma of this herb is very effective in clearing
up congestion of the nose, throat, bronchi, and lungs, which gives relief from
respiratory disorders that often result from asthma and common colds. As mint
cools and soothes the throat, nose and other respiratory channels, it also
relieves the irritation which causes chronic coughing. This is the main reason
why so many balms are based on mint. Unlike the inhalers that are based on
aerosols, those with mint as the fundamental component tend to be more
effective and eco-friendly as well.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Treats Asthma<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Regular use of mint is very beneficial for asthma patients,
as it is a good relaxant and relieves congestion. That being said, using too
much mint in this way can also irritate the nose and throat.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Aids in Breast
Feeding<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
For many women, breastfeeding is a beautiful part of raising
a child, but it can affect your breasts and nipples. Studies have shown that
mint oil can reduce the nipple cracks and pain that often accompany
breastfeeding.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Reduces Depression
& Fatigue<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Mint is a natural stimulant and the smell alone can be
enough to charge your energy and get your brain functioning at a higher level
again. If you are feeling sluggish, anxious, depressed or simply exhausted,
mint and its essential oil can help. It can be ingested, applied topically in a
salve form or inhaled as a vapor, and all of these techniques can give you a
much-needed boost.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Skin Care<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
While mint oil is a good antiseptic and antipruritic
material, the juice obtained from mint is an excellent skin cleanser. It
soothes the skin and helps cure infections and itchiness. In addition to being
a good way to reduce pimples, it can even relieve some of the symptoms of acne.
Its anti-pruritic properties can be used for treating insect bites like those
of mosquitoes, honeybees, hornets, wasps, and gnats. The cooling sensation will
relieve you from irritation and the constant urge to scratch, and the
anti-inflammatory nature of mint will bring down swelling. In that same vein,
mint oil is often a basic component of bug repellent products like citronella
candles, because the strong aroma is unappealing to most insects.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Prevents Memory Loss<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
A recent study explored the effects that mint has on
alertness, retention, and cognitive function. It found that people who
frequently use chewing gum, in which the major active ingredient is mint, had
higher levels of memory retention and mental alertness than those who did not.
The stimulant qualities of mint, once again, have shown yet another reason to
pop that stick of gum in your mouth or chew some leaves when you’re feeling
less than brilliant.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Weight Loss<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Apart from all the other health benefits of mint, it also
can help in your efforts to lose weight in a healthy way. Mint is a stimulant,
as we’ve already mentioned, but it also stimulates the digestive enzymes that
absorb nutrients from food and consume fat and turn it into usable energy.
Therefore, by adding mint to your diet, you are increasing the amount of fat
that is being consumed and put to use, rather than being stored and
contributing to weight gain.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p> </o:p> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Cures Allergies &
Hay Fever<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Seasonal allergies and hay fever (also known as rhinitis)
affect millions of people around the world. Extracts from mint leaves have been
shown to inhibit the release of certain chemicals, which aggravate severe nasal
symptoms associated with hay fever and seasonal allergies.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Prevents Cancer<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Current research shows that certain enzymes that can be
found in mint may help prevent and treat cancer.<o:p></o:p></div>

System<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Immune function to prevent the disease into the body.
Immunity will increase when a person is exercising regularly and eating foods
rich in nutrients. Mint leaves contain vitamin C that can positively impact
your immune system. Therefore, do not hesitate to add a mint leaf on a menu of
food that you consume.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img border="0" height="225" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgP6c6tFFXTZ5-3d2mXTv4ztXQJiRJrV-vQo2gOnm7HWJCVE15O5yZ-mZoRgqf2eeSGmUZYsmeXFLJVY7mBOWVW-vVKnXy0rtICcRsNm2PkPJzLMSXhQIeiVG58SNkTDuA4FKfGfogvFBY/s400/hazelnuts.jpg" width="400" /></div>
<br />
Hazelnuts are sweet, and incredibly nutritious edible kernels from the "birch" or Betulaceae family of trees. Hazel tree begins producing fruits about three years after plantation. Hazels appear in clusters. Each nut is held inside the short leafy involucre or "capsule" enclosing about three-quarters of the kernel. Hazelnut oil, extracted from the kernels, has been used in as base or carrier oil in medicine, and in aromatherapy.<br />
<br />
<b>Healthy Fats</b><br />
Hazelnuts contain heart-healthy fats that can protect heart health. Specifically, they are high in healthy polyunsaturated and mononunsaturated fats and low in unhealthier unsaturated fats. Hazelnuts are a good source of oleic acid. Oleic acid can help to lower levels of bad cholesterol, LDL, and can raise levels of good cholesterol, HDL, in the body.<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Cancer Prevention</b><br />
Studies have found that the alpha-tocopherol type of vitamin E hazelnuts are so rich in may cut the risk of bladder cancer in half. Additionally, the manganese so abundant in hazelnuts goes a long way in protecting the body from cancer. Manganese is a constituent of an antioxidant enzyme produced in the mitochondria of the cells to protect the body from cancer.<br />
<br />
<b>Muscles</b><br />
Magnesium plays an important role in regulating the amount of calcium that goes into and out of the cells of the body. The proper amount of calcium at the proper time encourages muscle contraction, and allows the muscles to relax when they’re not needed. This avoids muscle tension, soreness, spasm, cramps and fatigue. According to one Italian study, higher magnesium levels also increased the strength of the muscles.<br />
<br />
<b>Skin Health</b><br />
One cup of hazelnuts contains 86% of the recommended daily allowance of vitamin E. Vitamin E has been proven to protect skin from the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation, such as skin cancer and premature aging.<br />
<br />
<b>Bone and Joint Health</b><br />
About two thirds of the magnesium the body uses goes towards building the structure and strength of the skeletal system. Magnesium is a key mineral in the makeup of the bones, and is so important that the body stores extra magnesium on the surface of bones to be used in case of an emergency deficiency. Hazelnuts are also rich in manganese, a mineral essential for the growth and strength of bones. Post-menopausal women are often deficient in manganese and can benefit from its ability to increase the density of bone, and fight osteoporosis.<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Nervous System</b><br />
The nervous system needs amino acids in order to function, and amino acids require vitamin B6. Hazelnuts are rich in vitamin B6. Moreover, vitamin B6 is necessary for the creation of myelin, the insulating sheath of the nerve that increases the speed and efficiency of electrical impulses, allowing the nervous system to operate optimally. What’s more, vitamin B6 is instrumental in the synthesis of the neurotransmitters serotonin, melatonin, and epinephrine.<br />
<br />
<b>Digestive Tract Health</b><br />
Hazelnuts are rich in manganese, which is an enzyme activator and a catalyst in the synthesis of fatty acids and cholesterol. It also promotes protein and carbohydrate metabolism. The high content of fiber in hazelnuts assures regular movement of food and waste through the digestive tract, distributing the burden of work evenly along the way and promoting the proper balance of chemicals and microorganisms necessary for a healthy digestive system.<br />
<br />
<b>Palatable Antioxidants</b><br />
Antioxidants play a very important role in overall health. Free-radicals prevent the cells from being properly oxygenated and as a result illness occurs. A build up of free-radicals cause a domino effect in the body, infecting other cells, and leading to serious diseases.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Spinach is a green, leafy vegetable that is cheap and
affordable for everyone. It is a rich source of minerals, vitamins, pigments
and phytonutrients. All of these together make spinach very beneficial for a
number of vital processes.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Diabetes</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Spinach contains an antioxidant known as alpha-lipoic acid,
which has been shown to lower glucose levels, increase insulin sensitivity and
prevent oxidative stress-induced changes in patients with diabetes. Studies on
alpha-lipoic acid have also shown decreases in peripheral neuropathy and/or
autonomic neuropathy in diabetics.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Cancer prevention</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Spinach and other green vegetables contain chlorophyll which
has shown to be effective at blocking the carcinogenic effects of heterocyclic
amines which are generated when grilling foods at a high temperature.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Asthma prevention</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The risks for developing asthma are lower in people who
consume a high amount of certain nutrients. One of these nutrients is beta-carotene,
of which spinach is an excellent source. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Lowering blood pressure</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Because of its high potassium content, spinach is
recommended to those with high blood pressure to negate the effects of sodium
in the body. A low potassium intake may be just as big of a risk factor in
developing high blood pressure as a high sodium intake.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Bone health</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Low intakes of vitamin K have been associated with a higher
risk for bone fracture. Adequate vitamin K consumption is important for good
health, as it acts as a modifier of bone matrix proteins, improves calcium
absorption and may reduce urinary excretion of calcium.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Promotes regularity</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Spinach is high in fiber and water content, both of which
help to prevent constipation and promote a healthy digestive tract.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Healthy skin and hair</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Spinach is high in vitamin A, which is necessary for sebum
production to keep hair moisturized. Vitamin A is also necessary for the growth
of all bodily tissues, including skin and hair. Spinach and other leafy greens
high in vitamin C are imperative for the building and maintenance of collagen,
which provides structure to skin and hair.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Iron-deficiency is a common cause of hair loss, which can be
prevented by an adequate intake of iron-rich foods, like spinach.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Good Eyesight</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Spinach is a rich source of beta carotene, lutein and
xanthene, all of which are beneficial for eyesight. Beta carotene is supplied
to the eyes by cooked spinach. It can prevent people from suffering from
vitamin A deficiency, itching eyes, eye ulcers and dry eyes. This is also due
to some of the anti-inflammatory properties of spinach, which can reduce the
puffiness or irritation in the eyes.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Anti-Ulcerative</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It has been found that spinach and some other vegetables
have the ability to protect the mucous membrane of the stomach, thereby
decreasing the occurrence of gastric ulcers. Furthermore, the
glycocyclerolipids found in spinach can boost the strength of the digestive
tract lining, thereby preventing any unwanted inflammation in that part of the
body that can cause harm.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Fetal Development</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Folate found in spinach is needed by a growing fetus for
proper development of its new nervous system. Defects like cleft palate or
spina bifida may occur due to a deficiency of folate. The vitamin A contained
in spinach is advised to be consumed in higher quantities by the mother.
Vitamin A is required in the lung development of the fetus as well, and can be
transferred during breast-feeding, so spinach consumption should be continued
after birth as well.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Skin Protection</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Different phytonutrients and pigments have been shown to
protect the skin from the harmful rays of the sun, including UV rays. These not
only protect, but also repair the damaged genes to some extent, thereby
preventing skin cancer in the long run.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Reduced Risk of Cataracts</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
The lutein and zeaxanthin present in spinach both act as
strong antioxidants, thus preventing the eyes from the harsh effects of UV rays
that can lead to cataracts.<o:p></o:p></div>

<br /><div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Mushrooms, though classified as vegetables in the food
world, are not technically plants. They belong to the fungi kingdom and
although they are not vegetables, mushrooms provide several important
nutrients. The health benefits of mushrooms include relief from high
cholesterol levels, breast cancer, prostate cancer, and diabetes. It also helps
in weight loss, and increases the strength of your immune system.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b>1) Cancer</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Mushrooms contain just as high an antioxidant capacity as
carrots, tomatoes, green and red peppers, pumpkins, green beans, and zucchini.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Selenium is a mineral that is not present in most fruits and
vegetables but can be found in mushrooms. It plays a role in liver enzyme
function, and helps detoxify some cancer-causing compounds in the body.
Additionally, selenium prevents inflammation and also decreases tumor growth
rates.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The vitamin D in mushrooms has also been shown to inhibit
the growth of cancer cells by contributing to the regulation of the cell growth
cycle. The folate in mushrooms plays an important role in DNA synthesis and
repair, thus preventing the formation of cancer cells from mutations in the
DNA.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b>2) Diabetes</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Studies have shown that type 1 diabetics who consume
high-fiber diets have lower blood glucose levels and type 2 diabetics may have
improved blood sugar, lipids and insulin levels. One cup of grilled portabella
mushrooms and one cup of stir-fried shiitake mushrooms both provide about 3
grams of fiber.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b>3) Heart health</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The fiber, potassium and vitamin C content in mushrooms all
contribute to cardiovascular health. Potassium and sodium work together in the
body to help regulate blood pressure. Consuming mushrooms, which are high in
potassium and low in sodium helps to lower blood pressure and decrease the risk
of high blood pressure and cardiovascular diseases.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Mushrooms themselves provide you with lean proteins since
they have no cholesterol or fat and are very low carbohydrates. The fiber and
certain enzymes in mushrooms also help lower cholesterol levels. Moreover, the
high lean protein content in mushrooms helps burn cholesterol when they are
digested. Balancing levels of cholesterol between LDL cholesterol (“bad”
cholesterol) and HDL (“good” cholesterol) is essential in the prevention of various
cardiovascular diseases like artherosclerosis, heart attack, and stroke.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b>4) Immunity</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Selenium has also been found to improve immune response to
infection by stimulating production of killer T-cells. The beta-glucan fibers
found in the cell walls of mushrooms stimulate the immune system to fight
cancer cells and prevent tumors from forming. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Mushrooms contain natural antibiotics (similar to
penicillin, which itself is extracted from mushrooms), which inhibit microbial
growth and other fungal infections. Those same polysaccharides, beta-glucans,
can stimulate and regulate the body’s immune system. They can also help heal
ulcers and ulcerous wounds and protect them from developing infections. The
good combination of vitamins A, B-Complex and C that is found in mushrooms also
strengthens the immune system.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b>5) Weight management and satiety</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Dietary fiber plays an important role in weight management
by functioning as a "bulking agent" in the digestive system.
Mushrooms contain two types of dietary fibers in their cell walls: beta-glucans
and chitin which increase satiety and reduce appetite, making you feel fuller
longer and thereby lowering your overall calorie intake.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b>6) Bone Health</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Mushrooms are a rich source of calcium, which is an
essential nutrient in the formation and strength of bones. A steady supply of
calcium in the diet can reduce your chances of developing conditions like
osteoporosis, and can also reduce joint pain and general lack of mobility that
is associated with bone degradation.<o:p></o:p></div>

<br />
There are some essential ingredients that should make up the foundation of your new beauty routine. You can probably find them in your kitchen because they are mostly edible. They are incredibly potent on their own and learning to use them as beauty products will teach you the basics of being your own little chemist.<br />
<br />
<br />
FINE-GRAIN SEA SALT<br />
Especially great for acne or quick treatments during flare-ups. Other uses are: as a muscle relaxer, pulls toxins from pores, balances moisture, eliminates fluid retention, removes dead skin cells, cleans deeply and can be applied on your face and body. The simplest way to use sea salt is to wet your skin, put some salt on your wet hand so it sticks, then pat it gently onto your skin. You can leave it for a few minutes or rinse immediately. Just make sure not to scrub too hard – it is too abrasive by itself.<br />
<br />
<br />
APPLE CIDER VINEGAR<br />
It is the best natural astringent because it helps to balance your skin's pH, making your skin less oily and less dry. Plus, it promotes blood circulation and kills bacteria, yeasts and viruses. It is pungent, so, always dilute it first. Apply to your face with a spritzer or a cotton ball. No need to wash it off.<br />
<br />
<br />
SHEA BUTTER<br />
A little bit of it goes a long way, leaving your skin hydrated. Shea butter absorbs ultraviolet radiation as it has a natural SPF. Apply it straight on your body or face.<br />
<br />
<br />
COCONUT OIL<br />
Coconut oil is a great body moisturiser. It soaks in and glides on easily, keeping you hydrated for a longer time. It has antifungal and antibacterial properties that will help heal acne, infections, scars and rashes. Coconut oil is full of antioxidants and healthy fats so it offers a lot of nutrition for your skin. Use this oil right after you shower, when your pores are soft and hydrated.<br />
<br />
<br />
OLIVE OIL<br />
It is a light moisturiser that is great for the face and is especially affordable. Olive oil protects skin against sun damage and cancer. Use olive oil more freely on your face and hair as it hardly has any allergic side effects.<br />
<br />
<br />
GROUND ALMONDS OR OATS<br />
These are gentle exfoliants that leave skin super-soft. Both of these ingredients are incredibly healing and soothing to the skin and they also reduce inflammation. The simplest way to use oats is to pour a heaping cup into a warm bath and soak.<br />
<br />
<br />
BAKING SODA<br />
It’s a great odour fighter, deep cleanser, toothpaste ingredient and an instant spot treatment. It also removes zits occasionally. Make a paste with water and put it on a blemish or spread onto a stinky area, leave on for however long you would like, then rinse.<br />
<br />
HONEY<br />
It kills bacteria while moisturising and soothing skin. It is also hydrating and anti-inflammatory to your pores. It is a great addition to any mask or exfoliant. Rub it onto your face and let it rest for some time and then rinse with warm water.<br />
<br />
<br />
COARSE SUGAR<br />
It melts quickly in water, leaving the skin cleansed and smooth. Have you heard of chemical peels of glycolic acid? It is a synthetic type of sugar. Scrub down with sugar when you want fresh, clear, shiny skin. You can use sugar scrub while bathing. You can also use it on your face, but don't be too vigorous – just pat!<br />
<br />
<br />
ALOE VERA<br />
It is high in antioxidants, fights itchiness and inflammation. It also creates fresh new cells, and has the ability to moisturise and heal your skin. Apply the gooey inside of the stem that spills out after breaking it. You can also get it in gel or juice form from any herb store.<br />

They are used with a proclivity to add freshness, balance and exquisite taste to every dish. They may also be used for presentations; as they make a dish look livelier.<br />
<br />
Many people use the term broadly to mean all seasonings. In fact, spices are really the seeds, fruit, roots, buds or bark of aromatic plants that usually grow in tropical countries.<br />
<br />
In the past, spices were used to mask the taste of foods that had spoiled. Nowadays, we use spices to titillate our taste buds and try something new. Spices can transform an everyday dish into a signature dish that gets its flavour from the cook’s secret blend. In concocting such blends, cooks must of course take into account their guests’ tolerance for hot foods.<br />
<br />
Spices are sold whole, ground, powdered, as flakes or in bags. For maximum fragrance and flavour, buy spices whole and crush them just before using them. The aroma of ground and powdered spices fade more quickly. Keep spices in airtight bottles or jars, away from heat and light. Never store spices close to the e stove. Smell spices periodically and discard any that have lost their aroma.<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYqCAssma6B7LBtU1qng1Offv5OvXaT2FzFe-XtntN8MQnhqRHXKAApeKkqYpf8tUVbkdfXnG_bUJg74aNVT2_Ba46o69WdcrLnq7HqCcNx4eCICWv8jbn2-C4fJjMxWsysSg4kaYCNzc/s1600/goats_32512_384.84191632_std.JPG" height="267" width="320" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Different meat cuts can taste and be prepared in various ways. This is why it is important to know goat better. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Head</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A goat’s head is one of the more popular cuts the brain tastes great and is more firm that it tender. Usually it is a good idea to pan-fry the brain in a traditional way to make it less chewy. The brain is also believed to be one of the more delicious parts of a goat.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Neck</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Necks are a tougher cut with a lot of cartilage, the lamb neck is best used for making lamb stew or use in gravy. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Shoulder</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The shoulder has the lowest amount of meat content. The lamb shoulder is often roasted — in which case it is usually boned and rolled; it can be stuffed, as well. This part is succulent and can be used to make stew or Palao as well. It is because of this that these are used to make goat chops which, if cooked right, can be delicious and satiating. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Lamb Rib</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The lamb rib primal cut is where we get lamb rib chops , lamb crown roast and rack of lamb . Depending on the size of the ribs, a lamb chop may actually have two ribs on it. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Forequarter</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The forequarter is lowest in fat content. The bone to meat ratio in the rack/rib and loin is just right. The loin can be cut into smaller parts and grilled over a charcoal grill so that they maintain their meat content. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Lamb Breast </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Lamb breast contains a lot of cartilage and other connective tissues, making it one of the few lamb primal cuts that needs to be cooked with moist heat . Lamb breast can also be used for making ground lamb.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Lamb Sirloin </b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The lamb sirloin is sometimes considered part of the leg primal cut , but it can also be prepared separately. In this case it is frequently cut into chops or steaks .</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Hindquarter</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The hindquarter is inclusive of the thigh and calves and is relatively higher in fat content and it has more meat. Roasting the hindquarter in an oven would be a good idea. The heat would travel into the meat and prepare it well. Mutton Kunna is prepared with mutton legs is one such curry which has a very unique and traditional texture and has wonderful flavors in it.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Calves</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The calves can be used in stews (Paye), too. These have some, albeit low, meat content but they can complement the flavour of the stew. Throw in a few onions and carrots and serve the meal with bread for a nice and warm </div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 13.5pt;">
The smartest plan for attacking a heart attack is, of course,
preventing one from ever happening. Choose the following strategies
and make them a habit. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<b><span style="background: white; color: #222222; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Stress</span></b><span style="color: #222222; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br />
<span style="background: white;">Stress affects your mood, productivity, and the
heart. You need to brush stress aside and try your best to avoid overworking. A
burnout can tax your mind and the body causing you to crash and be fatigued. If
you feel stressed, the best way to get rid of it is to take a walk and clear
your mind. Get some fresh air and a fresh perspective.</span></span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<b><span style="background: white; color: #222222; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Weight Management</span></b><span style="color: #222222; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br />
<span style="background: white;">No, it is not a program we are asking you to
sign up; it is a lifestyle choice that you need to follow for the sake of your
heart. If you are among the people who have a desk job, then know this: you are
in danger of putting on weight because you sit all day. Being overweight is a
big red flag for your heart. Besides exercising, weight management also calls
for having a balanced diet. This means that you should effectively utilize the
concept of the food pyramid. Your regular diet should contain a lot of fruits
and vegetables. Try to cut down on red meat and substitute white bread with
brown while you’re are at it.</span></span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<b><span style="background: white; color: #222222; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Stay Active</span></b><span style="color: #222222; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br />
<span style="background: white;">Pick up cycling or light jogging if you prefer a
light workout. If you are looking for something easy to fit your busy schedule,
then take up walking, but going from your couch to your refrigerator does not
count. At the very minimum, the 10,000 steps a day challenge counts as walking.
This might feel outrageous, but it is possible and will help you stay active.
You can do your heart a favor and get a pedometer to monitor your steps.
Challenge yourself and if possible, take the subway instead of driving
everywhere.</span></span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">

<span style="background: white;">You should eat this amazing source of protein at
least once a week. Fish is high in Omega-3 and is your best defense against
heart diseases. You don’t need to worry about the mercury content as the
positives outweigh the negatives.</span></span><o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="background: white;">Smoking is a leading cause for coronary diseases
and therefore, you need to stay away from it. </span></span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<b><span style="background: white; color: #222222; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">The Salt</span></b><span style="color: #222222; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br />
<span style="background: white;">Food without salt is unimaginable for everyone.
But as they say, too much of anything is bad for you and the same principle
applies to salt. Blood pressures spikes are often related to high salt content
so try to minimize your intake of salt.</span></span><o:p></o:p></div>

<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Eating well balanced meals is important at all times,
but it is even more essential when you are pregnant. There are essential
nutrients, vitamins, and minerals that your developing baby needs. During
pregnancy it is advisable to eat natural foods, but there are certain food
groups you should avoid.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Cheese<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Feta is a popular form of
cheese, used in many salads and pastas and adored by food connoisseurs all over
the world. Unfortunately, this type of cheese (along with other soft,
unpasteurized cheese which we talk about later in this article) has been linked
to foodborne illness such as Listeriosis. Avoid any cheeses that have
“unpasteurized” on the label and opt for safer choices like mozzarella cheese
instead.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">

seafood high in mercury<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Seafood can be a great source of protein, and the omega-3 fatty acids in
many fish can promote your baby's brain and eye development. However, some fish
and shellfish contain potentially dangerous levels of mercury. Too much mercury
could harm your baby's developing nervous system.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">The bigger and older the fish, the more mercury it's likely to contain.

(EPA) encourage pregnant women to avoid:<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">There is NO amount of alcohol that is known to be safe
during pregnancy, and therefore alcohol should be avoided during pregnancy.
Prenatal exposure to alcohol can interfere with the healthy development of the
baby. Depending on the amount, timing, and pattern of use, alcohol consumption
during pregnancy can lead to Fetal Alcohol Syndrome or other developmental
disorders. If you consumed alcohol before you knew you were pregnant, stop
drinking now. You should continue to avoid alcohol during breastfeeding.
Exposure of alcohol to an infant poses harmful risks, and alcohol does reach
the baby during breastfeeding.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Vitamin A has been linked to birth defects in babies. Monitor your intake of
Vitamin A (ask your doctor how much of this vitamin is safe) and avoid
high-dose multi-vitamin supplements, fish liver oil supplements and any

<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">For obvious reasons
cigarettes are bad for pregnant women. ‘Not only does it have nicotine, but
smoking also exposes your baby to nicotine, carbon monoxide and tar within the

birth defects, a low birth weight or even a cleft palate.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

</div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Green tea is herbal and good for health, but refrain
from having it during pregnancy. ‘There aren’t enough documentation available
to show that green tea is good for pregnant women. One reason why you should
not have green tea during pregnancy is that it increases your metabolic rate
and during pregnancy your metabolism levels are high as such. Speeding it up
further wouldn’t be advisable. Green tea also have some caffeine in it so
unlimited sips is going to do you as much damage as regular tea. Also excessive
consumption of green tea can lead to less absorption of folic acid during
pregnancy making you and your baby susceptible to folic acid deficiency
diseases.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Kidney Problems<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Diet soda might be bad for your kidneys. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Messed-Up Metabolism</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Diet soda is linked to a 34% higher risk of metabolic
syndrome, the group of symptoms including belly fat and high cholesterol that
puts you at risk for heart disease. Whether that link is attributed to an
ingredient in diet soda or the drinkers' eating habits is unclear. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Obesity</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Diet soda doesn't help you lose weight after all. Artificial
sweeteners can disrupt the body's natural ability to regulate calorie intake
based on the sweetness of foods, suggested an animal study from Purdue
University. That means people who consume diet foods might be more likely to
overeat, because your body is being tricked into thinking its eating sugar, and
you crave more.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Cell Damage</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Diet sodas contain something many regular sodas don't: mold
inhibitors. They go by the names sodium benzoate or potassium benzoate, and
they're in nearly all diet sodas. But many regular sodas, such as Coke and
Pepsi, don't contain this preservative.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
These chemicals
have the ability to cause severe damage to DNA in the mitochondria to the point
that they totally inactivate it--they knock it out altogether. The preservative
has also been linked to hives, asthma, and other allergic conditions.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Rotting Teeth</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
With a pH of 3.2, diet soda is very acidic. The acid is what
readily dissolves enamel, and just because a soda is diet doesn't make it
acid-light. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Reproductive Issues</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Sometimes, the vessel for your beverage is just as harmful.
Diet or not, soft drink cans are coated with the endocrine disruptor bisphenol
A (BPA), which has been linked to everything from heart disease to obesity to
reproductive problems. <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Cucumbers, scientifically known as Cucumis sativus, are
grown to either be eaten fresh or to be pickled. Those that are to be eaten
fresh are commonly called slicing cucumbers. They are cylindrical in shape and
commonly range in length from about six to nine inches, although they can
smaller or much larger. Their skin, which ranges in color from green to white,
may either be smoothed or ridged depending upon the variety. Inside a cucumber
is a very pale green flesh that is dense yet aqueous and crunchy at the same
time, as well as numerous edible fleshy seeds<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>1. Cucumber refreshes
the mouth<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Cucumber juice heals and refreshes diseased gums. Get a
slice of cucumber and press it to the roof of your mouth with your tongue for a
half minute, the phytochemcials will kill the bacteria in your mouth
responsible for causing unpleasant breath.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>2. Rehydrates body
and replenishes daily vitamins <o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Cucumbers are 95 percent water, keeping the body hydrated
while helping the body eliminate toxins. Cucumbers have most of the vitamins
the body needs in a single day. Don't forget to leave the skin on because the
skin contains a good amount of vitamin C, about 10 percent of the
daily-recommended allowance.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>3. Skin and hair care
<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
If you don't like to eat the skin, it can be used for skin
irritations and sunburns as aloe would be used. Place a slice over puffy eyes
and its anti-inflammatory properties help reduce puffiness. The silicon and
sulfur in cucumbers help to stimulate hair growth.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>4. Fight cancers <o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Cucumber are known to contain lariciresinol, pinoresinol,
and secoisolariciresinol. These three lignans have a strong history of research
in connection with reduced risk of several cancer types, including breast
cancer, ovarian cancer, uterine cancer and prostate cancer.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>5. Fights heat, both
inside and out <o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Eat cucumber, and your body gets relief from heartburn.
Apply cucumber on your skin, and you get relief from sunburn.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>6. Flushes out toxins<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
All that water in cucumber acts as a virtual broom, sweeping
waste products out of your system. With regular use, cucumber is known to
dissolve kidney stones.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>7. Revives the eyes<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Placing chilled slices of cucumber on the eyes is a clichéd
beauty visual, but it really helps reduce under-eye bags and puffiness.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>8. Aids in weight
loss and digestion <o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Due to its low calorie and high water content, cucumber is
an ideal diet for people who are looking for weight loss. The high water
content and dietary fiber in cucumbers are very effective in ridding the body
of toxins from the digestive system, aiding digestion. Daily consumption of
cucumbers can be regarded as a remedy for chronic constipation.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>9. Cures diabetes,
reduces cholesterol and controls blood pressure <o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Cucumber juice contains a hormone which is needed by the
cells of the pancreas for producing insulin which has been found to be
beneficial to diabetic patients. Researchers found that a compound called
sterols in cucumbers may help reduce cholesterol levels. Cucumbers contain a
lot of potassium, magnesium and fiber. These work effectively for regulating
blood pressure. This makes cucumbers good for treating both low blood pressure
and high blood pressure.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>10. Cucumber smoothes
hair and nails<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The wonder mineral Silica in cucumber makes your hair and
nails shinier and stronger. The sulfur and silica in cucumbers help to
stimulate your hair growth.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>11. Promotes Joint
Health, Relieves Gout and Arthritis Pain<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Cucumber is an excellent source of silica, which is known to
help promotes joint health by strengthening the connective tissues. They are
also rich in vitamin A, B1, B6, C & D, Folate, Calcium, Magnesium, and
Potassium. When mixed with carrot juice, they can relieve gout and arthritis
pain by lowering the uric acid levels.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>12. Cucumber cures
hangover<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
To avoid a morning headache or hangover you can eat a few
cucumber slices before going to sleep. Cucumbers contain enough B vitamins,
sugar and electrolytes to replenish many essential nutrients and reducing the
severity of both hangover and headache.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>13. A Radiant
Complexion<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The silica in cucumber is an essential component of healthy
connective tissue, which includes intracellular cement, muscles, tendons,
ligaments, cartilage, and bone. Cucumber juice is often recommended as a source
of silicon to improve the complexion and health of the skin, plus cucumber’s
high water content makes it naturally hydrating–a must for glowing skin.
Cucumbers are also used topically for various types of skin problems, including
swelling under the eyes and sunburn. Two compounds in cucumbers, ascorbic acid
and caffeic acid, prevent water retention, which may explain why cucumbers
applied topically are often helpful for swollen eyes, burns and dermatitis.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Tart and tangy with an underlying
sweetness, grapefruit has a juiciness that rivals that of the ever popular
orange and sparkles with many of the same health promoting benefits.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Refreshing and delicious
grapefruit is rich in phytonutrients such as lycopene, vitamin A, and
beta-carotene. The fruit is well known as "fruit from the paradise"
for its unique health-promoting as well as disease preventing properties,
especially among the health-conscious, fitness enthusiasts.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Here are the health benefits of
grapefruit.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b>1. Grapefruit Helps in Losing Weight<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Grapefruit is high in enzymes
that burn fats, has high water content and has less sodium. A combination of
these three characteristics make grapefruit a perfect food for increasing your
body's metabolism. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b>2. Prevents Arthritis and Works as an Antiseptic<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Grapefruit contains salicylic
acid that helps break down the body's inorganic calcium, which builds up in the
cartilage of joints and may lead to arthritis.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The salicylic acid in grapefruit
also works as a powerful antiseptic. In addition, grapefruit seed extracts can
be added to water to make an antiseptic spray for treating bacterial and fungal
infections.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b>3. Grapefruit Helps in Cancer Prevention<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Lycopene is a carotenoid pigment
that is responsible for the red color of grapefruit. It is a powerful agent
against tumors and cancers as it acts as a scavenger of cancer-causing free
radicals. Lycopene works best with vitamins A and C, which are also found in
grapefruit.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
An antioxidant compound, called
naringenin, is also found in grapefruit. Naringenin helps repair damaged DNA in
prostate cancer cells. DNA repair contributes to cancer prevention as it
impedes the reproduction of cancer cells.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The antioxidants found in
grapefruit are effective in reducing cholesterol levels. However, if you are on
prescription drugs, do not eat grapefruit or drink grapefruit juice. Grapefruit
has a negative reaction against many prescription drugs such as those used in
treating depression, allergies, high blood pressure, seizures, impotence, heart
palpitations and even HIV.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b>5. Grapefruit Treats Common Ailments<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Eating grapefruit or drinking its
juice helps treat common cold and fever, dissolve gallstones, boost liver
function and enhance immunity against infections. As grapefruit contains a
dietary fiber called pectin, it thus promotes better digestion. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b>6. Limonoids Promote Optimal Health<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Phytonutrients in grapefruit
called limonoids inhibit tumor formation by promoting the formation of
glutathione-S-transferase, a detoxifying enzyme. This enzyme sparks a reaction
in the liver that helps to make toxic compounds more water soluble for
excretion from the body. Pulp of citrus fruits like grapefruit contain
glucarates, compounds that may help prevent breast cancer.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b>7. Grapefruit Lowers Cholesterol<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Both red and blond grapefruits
both positively influenced cholesterol levels, but red grapefruit was more than
twice as effective, especially in lowering triglycerides. In addition, both
grapefruits significantly improved blood levels of protective antioxidants. Red
grapefruit's better performance may be due to an as yet unknown antioxidant
compound or the synergistic effects of its phytonutrients, including lycopene.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b>8. Rich in the Nutritional Powerhouse Vitamin C<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Grapefruit is an excellent source
of vitamin C, a vitamin that helps to support the immune system. Vitamin C-rich
foods like grapefruit may help reduce cold symptoms or severity of cold
symptoms. Vitamin C also prevents the free radical damage that triggers the
inflammatory cascade, and is therefore also associated with reduced severity of
inflammatory conditions, such as asthma, osteoarthritis, and rheumatoid
arthritis. As free radicals can oxidize cholesterol and lead to plaques that
may rupture causing heart attacks or stroke, vitamin C is beneficial to
promoting cardiovascular health<o:p></o:p></div>

<b>Common types of hazards</b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
Use these notes to help you identify and assess hazards that might occur in your workplace.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<b>Chemical hazards</b><span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;"><br />Chemicals can affect the skin by contact or the body either through the digestive system or through the lungs if air is contaminated with chemicals, vapour, mist or dust. There can be an acute (immediate) effect, or a chronic (medium to long-term) effect from the accumulation of chemicals or substances in or on the body.</span></div>
<div class="text_exposed_show" style="background-color: white; color: #141823; display: inline; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px;">
<b>Noise hazards</b><br />Excessive noise can disrupt concentration, interfere with communication, and result in loss of hearing. High impact noises are particularly damaging. Noise can also mask out signals, affecting communication or danger warnings.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<b>Radiation hazards</b><br />Equipment such as radioactive gauging devices or the radioactive trace element used in analytical chemistry produce Ionising radiation. Non-ionising radiation covers infrared radiation (heat-producing processes), lasers, ultraviolet radiation (welding, sunlight), and microwaves (high-frequency welders, freeze drying).</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<b>Electrical hazards</b><br />These include the risk of injury from all forms of electrical energy.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<b>Lighting hazards</b><br />Inadequate lighting levels are a potential safety hazard. A common problem area is the reaction time needed for the eyes to adjust from a brightly lit to a darker environment — such as a forklift driver coming indoors from bright sunlight. Temporary lighting is often inadequate.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<b>Vibration hazards</b><br />This includes whole-body vibration — for example, truck drivers, people standing on vibrating platforms, and operators of mobile equipment — and also more localised vibration effects from such equipment as hand tools, chainsaws, and pneumatic hammers.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<b>Temperature hazards</b><br />Extremes of cold or heat can cause problems such as tiredness, vulnerability to infections or reduced capacity to work.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<b>Biological hazards</b><br />These include insects, bacteria, fungi, plants, worms, animals and viruses. For example, poultry workers exposed to bird feathers and droppings to which they are allergic can contract a medical condition. Brucellosis is a well known problem in New Zealand associated with people handling meat and meat products infected with brucella. Hepatitis and the AIDS virus are other biological hazards.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<b>Ergonomic hazards</b><br />Ergonomics (the ‘fit’ between people and their work) covers risk of injury from manual handling procedures, incorrectly designed desks or workstations, audio and visual alarms, and colour coding control mechanisms.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<b>Physical hazards</b><br />These include a wide range of injury risks— as diverse as being caught in or by machinery, buried in trenches or hurt by collapsing machinery. This category also includes the hazards from working in confined spaces, being hit by flying objects, caught in explosions, falling from heights and tripping on obstacles.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<b>Other hazards</b><br />Include stress, fatigue, the effects of shift work, and even assaults from other people.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When the body is starved of food, it starts to burn fat so
that it can make energy. This can lead to weight loss. However, if you fast for
too long your body will eventually start breaking down muscle protein for
energy, which is unhealthy.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As the Ramadan fast only lasts from dawn till dusk, the
body's energy can be replaced in the pre-dawn and dusk meals.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This provides a gentle transition from using glucose as
the main source of energy, to using fat, and prevents the breakdown of muscle
for protein.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>1. Fasting Promotes detoxification</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Processed foods contain lots of additives. These additives
may become toxins in the body. Some of them promote production of advanced
glycation end products (AGEs). Most of these toxins are stored in fats. Fat is
burnt during fasting, especially when it is prolonged. And the toxins are
released. The liver, kidneys and other organs in the body are involved in
detoxification. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>2. Fasting Rests Digestive System</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
During fasting, the digestive organs rest. The normal
physiologic functions continue especially production of digestive secretions,
but at reduced rates. This exercise helps to maintain balance of fluids in the
body. Breakdown of food takes place at steady rates. Release of energy also
follows a gradual pattern. Fasting however does not stop production of acids in
the stomach. This is reason patients with peptic ulcer are advised to approach
fasting with caution. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>3. Fasting Resolves Inflammatory Response</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Fasting promotes resolution of inflammatory diseases and
allergies. Examples of such inflammatory diseases are rheumatoid arthritis, arthritis and
skin diseases such as psoriasis. Some experts assert that fasting may promote
healing of inflammatory bowel diseases such as ulcerative colitis.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>4. Fasting Reduces Blood Sugar</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Fasting increases breakdown of glucose so that the body can
get energy. It reduces production of insulin. This rests the pancreas. Glucagon
is produced to facilitate the breakdown of glucose. The outcome of fasting is a
reduction in blood sugar.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>5. Fasting Increases Fat breakdown</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The first response of the body to fasting is break down of
glucose. When the store of glucose is exhausted, ketosis begins. This is break
down of fats to release energy. The fats stored in kidney and muscles are
broken down to release energy.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>6. Fasting Corrects high blood Pressure</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Fasting is one of the non-drug methods of reducing blood
pressure. It helps to reduce the risk of atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis is
clogging of arteries by fat particles. During fasting glucose and later, fat
stores are used to produce energy. Metabolic rate is reduced during
fasting. The fear-flight hormones such as adrenaline and noradrenaline are also
reduced. This keeps the metabolic steady and within limits. The benefit is a
reduction in blood pressure.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>7. Fasting Promotes Weight loss</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Fasting promotes rapid weight loss. It reduces the store of
fats in the body. However fasting is not a good weight loss strategy. Reducing
fat and sugar intake, and increasing fruits and rest are better measures to
achieve weight reduction.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>8. Fasting Promotes Healthy diet</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It has been observed that fasting reduces craving for
processed foods. It promotes desire for natural foods, especially water and
fruits. This is one way fasting promote healthy lifestyle.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>9. Fasting Boosts Immunity</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When an individual is on balanced diet in between fasts,
this can boost immunity. Elimination of toxins and reduction in fat store also
helps the body. When individuals take fruits to break a fast, they increase the
body's store of essential vitamins and minerals. Vitamins A and E are good
antioxidants readily available in fruits. They help to boost immunity.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>10. Fasting May Help to Overcome Addictions</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Fasting can help addicts reduce their cravings, for
nicotine, alcohol, caffeine and other substance abuse. Although there are other
regimens required to resolve addictions, fasting can play a role.<o:p></o:p></div>
