Diet tips: Broccoli leaves actually contain more
beta-carotene (i.e. pre-Vitamin A) than the florets - use leaves in purees,
soups, stir-fries. To preserve broccoli’s valuable nutrients, steam or
microwave, being careful not to overcook. Avoid garnishing broccoli with
fatty cheeses and creams instead, squeeze on some lemon juice or sprinkle
with toasted breadcrumbs.
PAPAYA
How it combats cancer: Its plentiful store of vitamin C works as an
antioxidant and may also reduce absorption of cancer-causing nitrosamines from
the soil or processed foods. Papaya contains folacin (also known as folic acid),
which has been shown to minimize cervical ysplasia and certain cancers.
Diet tips: Choose papayas that are at least half-yellow
in the store - fully green ones were probably picked too soon and won’t
ripen properly. You can serve papaya in fruit salad, add it to a
garlic-and-spinach pasta mixture, or just eat it on its own, letting the
juice dribble down your arm.
GARLIC
How it combats cancer: Garlic’s immune-enhancing allium compounds block
carcinogens from entering cells and slow tumor development. Diallyl sulfide, a
component of garlic oil, has also been shown to render carcinogens in the liver
inactive. Studies have linked garlic - as well as onions, leeks, and chives - to
lower risk of stomach and colon cancer.
Diet tips: Add raw garlic to salads, use it fresh in
marinades and sauces; rub freshly cut garlic around the insides of salad
bowls and over chicken and fish fillets. Avoid dried or powdered garlic,
which is less concentrated - and less effective
KALE
How it combats cancer: Research has shown that indoles, nitrogen
compounds found in kale and other leafy greens, may help stop the conversion of
certain lesions to cancerous cells in estrogen-sensitive tissues. In addition,
isothiocyanates, phytochemicals found in kale, are thought to suppress tumor
growth and block cancer-causing substances from reaching their targets.
Diet tips: A cruciferous vegetable, kale requires quick
cooking - blanching or steaming - to preserve its nutrients. When you’re
done, save the nutrient-rich cooking liquid for soups or sauces. You can
also use whole large leaves to wrap fillings or to layer in lasagna.
SWEET POTATO
How it combats cancer: This nutrient-dense food contains many anticancer
properties. It’s loaded with beta-carotene, which may protect DNA in the cell
nucleus from cancer-causing chemicals outside the nuclear membrane.
Diet tips: Go for freshness when picking potatoes -
canned arieties contain less beta-carotene and vitamins C and B. Naturally
sweet and creamy, mashed sweet potatoes can be enhanced with a little apple
juice. Or whip the cooked tubers with orange zest or orange juice and season
with cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
GRAPEFRUIT
How it combats cancer: Grapefruits, like oranges and other citrus fruits,
contain monoterpenes, believed to help prevent cancer by sweeping carcinogens
out of the body. Some studies show that grapefruit can inhibit the proliferation
of breast-cancer cells in vitro. It also contains vitamin C, beta-carotene, and
folic acid.
Diet tips: Grapefruit can be sweetened with brown sugar or a drizzle of
maple syrup or honey; vanilla extract, fresh mint, and almonds also accent
the fruit’s flavor. Grapefruit juice will give you the antioxidants and
phytochemicals that fight cancer, but it’s missing the fiber that fresh,
whole grapefruit offers.

7) DANGER OF COKE & PEPSI (SOFT DRINKS)
For those of u who LOVE Coke/Pepsi. Just when you thought you knew
everything.
1) To clean a toilet: -
Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the toilet bowl.
Let the "real thing" sit for one hour, then flush
clean.
The citric acid in Coke removes stains from vitreous
china.
No scrubbing, no sweat - guaranteed.
2) To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers:
Rub the bumper with a crumpled-up piece of aluminum
foils dipped in Coca-Cola.
Much economical than the stuff from Smart Shop.
3) To clean corrosion from car battery terminals;
Pour a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble
away the corrosion.
4) To loosen a rusted bolt;
Applying a cloth soaked in Coca-Cola to the rusted bolt
for several minutes.
5) To remove grease from clothes;
Empty a can of Coke into a load of greasy clothes, add
detergent, and run through a regular cycle.
6) The Coca-Cola will help loosen grease stains. It will also clean road haze
from your windshield.
Hey, what do we have here?
The world's first soft drink disguise as a multi-purpose
cleaner? Or should it be a multi-purpose cleaner disguise as a soft drink!!!
Besides that, If you pour Coke (yes, the soda) on a slab of
pork, wait a little while, you will SEE WORMS crawl out of it.
AND WE DRINK THIS STUFF! Coke & Pepsi ALARMING FACTS!!!
The average pH of soft drinks, e.g. Coke, Pepsi is pH 3.4.
This acidity is strong enough to dissolve teeth and bones! Our human body stops
building bones at around the age of 30. After that it'll be dissolving about
8-18% of the bones each year through the urine, depending on the acidity of the
food intake (acidity does not depend on the taste of the food, but on the ratio
of potassium / calcium / magnesium / etc. to phosphorus).
All the dissolved calcium compounds accumulate in the
arteries, veins, skin tissue, and organs. This affects the functioning of the
kidney (kidney stones). Soft drinks do not have any nutritional value (in terms
of vitamins and minerals). They have higher sugar content, higher acidity, and
more additives such as preservatives and colourings.
Some people like to take cold soft drinks after each meal,
guess what's the impact? Our body has an optimum temperature of 37 degrees for
the functioning of digestive enzymes. The temperature of cold soft drinks is
much less than 37, sometimes quite close to 0. This will lower the effectiveness
of the enzymes and put stress on the digestive system, digesting less food. In
fact the food gets fermented. The fermented food produce bad smelling gases,
decays and forms toxins, which are absorbed in the intestines, get circulated in
the blood and is delivered to the whole body. This spread of toxins can lead to
the development of various diseases. Think before you drink Coke or Pepsi or any
another soft drink.
Have you ever thought what you drink when you drink an
aerated drink? You gulp down carbon dioxide, something that no sane person in
the world would advise you to do. Few months ago, there was a competition in
Delhi University "Who can drink the most Coke?". The winner drank 8 bottles and
died on the spot because too much carbon dioxide in the blood and not enough
oxygen. From then on, the principal banned all soft drinks from the university
canteen.
Someone put a broken tooth in a bottle of Pepsi and in 10
days it is dissolved! Teeth and bones are the only human organs that stay intact
for years after death. Imagine what the drink must be doing to your delicate
soft intestines and stomach lining! To all COKE / PEPSI LOVERS, think again the
next time before you say " CHUP ".
8) DANGER OF PIG MEAT/PORK (BABI)
FYI No more 'zhu zha tang' or yummy 'bak kut teh'...
The following is from Dr. Lee Say Fatt, I believe you should
read this.
Pork Awareness (read this carefully)!
IT'S WORTH SPENDING 3 MINUTES READING THIS
Try this and see whether the pork you bought has worms. There
goes with your "Bak Kut Teh" for those who love it. Most men love to eat this so
watch out before it's too late. If you pour Coke (yes, the soda) on a slab of
pork, wait a little while, you will SEE WORMS crawl out of it.
A message from the Health Corporation of Singapore about the
bad effects of pork consumption. Pig's bodies contains MANY TOXINS, WORMS and
LATENT DISEASES.
Although some of these infestation are harboured in other
animals, modern veterinarians say that pigs are far MORE PREDISPOSED to these
illnesses than other animals. This could be because PIGS like to SCAVENGE and
will eat ANY kind of food, INCLUDING dead insects, worms, rotting carcasses,
excreta including their own, garbage, and other pigs.
INFLUENZA (flu) is one of the MOST famous illnesses which
pigs share with humans. This illness is haboured in the LUNGS of pigs during the
summer months and tends to affect pigs and human in the cooler months. Sausage
contains bits of pigs' lungs, so those who EAT pork sausage tend to SUFFER MORE
during EPIDEMICS of INFLUENZA.
Pig meat contains EXCESSIVE quantities of HISTAMINE and
IMIDAZOLE compounds, which can lead to ITCHING and INFLAMMATION; GROWTH HORMONE
which PROMOTES INFLAMMATION and growth; sulphur containing mesenchymal mucus
which leads to SWELLING and deposits of MUCUS in tendons and cartilage,
resulting in ATHRITIS, RHEUMATISM, etc. Sulphur helps cause FIRM human tendons
and ligaments to be replaced by the pig's soft mesenchymal tissues, and
degeneration of human cartiliage. Eating pork can also lead to GALLSTONES and
OBESITY, probably due to its HIGH CHOLESTEROL and SATURATED FAT content.
The pig is the MAIN CARRIER of the TAENIE SOLIUM WORM, which
is found in it flesh.
These tapeworms are found in human intestines with greater
frequency in nations where pigs are eaten. This type of tapeworm can pass
through the intestines and affect many other organs, and is incurable once it
reaches beyond a certain stage. One in six people in the US and Canada has
RICHINOSIS from eating trichina worms, which are found in pork. Many people have
NO SYMPTOMS after having pork. When they do have any sickness in long term, they
resemble symptoms of many other illnesses. These worms are NOT noticed during
meat inspections.
