乾隆皇帝養腎壯陽秘決大公開
乾隆当了60年的皇帝，活到89岁，这在中国历史上不能不算是一个奇迹，这与他注重养生是分不开的，而饮用各种长寿药酒则是他养生的主要方法之一。据《乾隆医案》记载，乾隆帝最爱喝的养生药酒为龟龄酒和松龄太平春酒，前者可祛病、壮阳补肾、养气、健身，而后者则是活血行气健脾安神的良药。虽说两者药用似不同，但巧的是这两种药酒所含的几十种中药成分中，都出现了熟地和当归。
那么，熟地和当归的搭配是否有什么讲究呢？熟地，甘，微温，可养阴补肾、填精，主治血虚所致面色萎黄、头昏心悸；肾精不足之腰膝酸软、头晕目眩、须发早白；肝阴不足之双目干涩、视物昏花。而当归药用其根，功在补血、和血，主治月经不调，血虚眩晕，疮疡肿等症。当归分归头、归身和归尾三部分。各部分所含化学成分不同，故药理作用也不一样，归头能止血，归身能养血，归尾能行血。既可分部位使用，也可全用。
之所以在乾隆爱喝的两种药酒中都含有熟地和当归，是因为中医认为阴血同源，养血、滋阴应同步进行，当归与熟地搭配，有两大好处，一是通过补血达到养阴的目的，滋阴又是补血的有效方法之一。二是当归本身具有非常好的活血功能，补而不滞，熟地和当归结合在一块用远胜于一药单用。虽说当归因其补血功效也被称作女人要药，但活血补血对男人同样重要。尤其是老年人随着年龄增长肾阴、肾精匮乏，气血、精液暗耗，应适时补充。
这里，向大家推荐一款药膳“熟地当归羊肉汤”：
原料：羊肉700克，熟地黄30克，当归15克，黄芪30克，大枣数枚，生姜3片。
做法：在原料都准备好后，将洗净的羊肉切成小块，用开水焯一下，除去血沫。具体做法是：将准备好的羊肉块放入盛有适量清水的锅内，然后放入生姜、熟地黄、当归、黄芪，用文火煲三个小时，这是为了让中药的有效成分能够充分溶解在汤中，3个小时后放入大枣，再加入适量的糖、盐、味精等，再用文火煮15分钟即可。秋冬季节吃熟地当归羊肉汤,不仅可以润燥，更可以升发阳气。
5种排毒蔬菜讓你更年輕
环境污染、电脑辐射、不良饮食习惯等都有可能导致人体产生各种生理垃圾，毒素长期在体内堆积，则会引发记忆力减退、面色灰黄、便秘、痔疮等系统疾病。因此，如何排毒成为不少白领女性关注的健康话题。其实在我们常吃的蔬菜中，就有不少具有解毒功效。采用蔬菜排毒法，既简便易行，又无副作用，何乐而不为？
海带
功效：降低胆固醇、排除放射性物质
海带中含有一种叫硫酸多糖的物质，能清除附着在血管壁上的胆固醇，使胆固醇保持正常含量。海带中的褐藻胶因含水率高，在肠内能形成凝胶状物质，有助于排除毒素物质，阻止人体吸收铅、镉等重金属，排除体内放射性元素，同时有助于治疗动脉硬化，并可防止便秘和肠癌的发生。海带中还含有大量的碘，可以刺激垂体，使女性体内雌激素水平降低、卵巢机能恢复正常，消除乳腺增生的隐患。
推荐食谱：海带炖鸭
制法：将鸭剁成小块，海带切成方块，将鸭和海带用开水烧开，捞去浮末，加入葱、姜、料酒、花椒，用中火将鸭炖烂，再加精盐，出锅装盘。
黑木耳
功效：消除血液热毒
木耳因生长在潮湿阴凉的环境中，中医学认为它具有补气活血、凉血滋润的作用，能够消除血液里的热毒。黑木耳中的植物胶质有较强的吸附力，可将残留在人体消化系统内的杂质排出体外，起到清胃涤肠的作用。黑木耳对体内难以消化的谷壳、木渣、沙子、金属屑等具有溶解作用，对胆结石、肾结石等也有化解功能。黑木耳还能减少血液凝块，预防血栓病的发生。
推荐食谱：黑木耳豆腐汤
制法：
将黑木耳泡发后洗净，豆腐切成片，将两者一起加入鸡汤及盐同炖，10分钟后即可食用。
绿豆
功效：解百毒
中医认为绿豆可解百毒，能帮助体内毒物的排泄，促进机体的正常代谢。绿豆可解酒毒、野菌毒、砒霜毒、有机磷农药毒、铅毒、丹石毒、鼠药毒等。绿豆还含有降血压及降血脂的成分。取食绿豆芽，可治疗因缺乏维生素A引起的夜盲症、缺乏维生素B2引起的舌疮口炎及阴囊炎、缺乏维生素C引起的坏血病等。绿豆芽脱下的豆皮名为绿豆衣，有清热解毒、明目退翳之功。
推荐食谱：醋溜绿豆芽
制法：
将绿豆芽洗净，用沸水快速焯一下，在凉水中浸泡后捞起、沥干；将花椒在油锅内炸焦，去掉花椒，放葱炝锅，投入绿豆芽，加盐、糖、醋、味精翻炒几下，用湿淀粉勾芡即成。
胡萝卜
功效：降低体内汞浓度
胡萝卜是有效的解毒食物，与体内的汞离子结合之后，能有效降低血液中汞离子的浓度，加速体内汞离子的排出。胡萝卜中所含的琥珀酸钾，有助于防止血管硬化、降低胆固醇。胡萝卜中所含的胡萝卜素可清除导致人体衰老的自由基，所含的B族维生素和维生素C等营养成分也有润肤、抗衰老的作用。女性进食胡萝卜还可降低卵巢癌的发病率。
推荐食谱：胡萝卜炖牛肉
制法：
将牛肉洗净、切块，放入滚水中烫去血水后捞出；将胡萝卜洗净、去皮、切块，和牛肉一起放入锅中用大火煮开，加入调料改中火煮至熟软即可。
大蒜
功效：降低体内铅浓度
大蒜中含有的辣素，其杀菌能力可达到青霉素的1/10，可以起到预防流感、防止伤口感染、治疗感染性疾病和驱虫的作用。大蒜中所含的大蒜素，可与铅结合成为无毒的化合物，能有效防治铅中毒。大蒜具有降血脂及预防冠心病和动脉硬化的作用，并可防止血栓的形成。大蒜还能提高肝脏的解毒功能，阻断亚硝胺致癌物质的合成。
推荐食谱：蒜味鸡汤
制法：
将锅烧热下油，放入番茄、大蒜煸烧几下，加鸡汤、盐和胡椒粉，用小火炖4-5分钟，将鸡蛋打入汤内，3-5分钟后即可食用。
海带

而你的半月痕，還在嗎？
其實，人類的指甲上的半月痕中，帶出了很多關於健康的信息。從你的半月痕中，能知道你的健康狀況如何。秘密，其實藏于人體中某些地方，只是看你是否能察覺到，其實你的身體，在你不知覺中已經把你的身體狀況傳送給你。
其實什麽是半月痕？瓣開你的手指，在指甲的開端，會有一個宛如半月的白色痕跡，這個就是半月痕。如果你發現，你的十個手指裏面已經沒有了半月痕，那麽，你的身體健康狀況並不如你所想的理想哦！不知道在哪裏？那請看... ...
就算你看到你的手指有半月痕，你也別高興得太早哦！真正健康的半月痕的顔色是白色！其他顔色的話，那就是說不是很健康了！
半月痕其實是陰陽經脈界線，代表著人體的精氣和健康。所以如果健康不佳，消化不良，半月痕就會變得細小，模糊，甚至消失。
怎樣才是正常的半月痕呢？拌開你的雙手，8-10個手指都有半月痕是為佳，而它的面積是指甲的五分之一，顔色為乳白色為好，越白越好。如果半月痕小于五分之一，则表示精力不足，肠胃吸收能力差。如半月痕突然晦暗、缩细、消失，往往会患有消耗性的疾病、肿瘤、出血等。而如果半月痕較面積五分之一大，多为心肌肥大，易患心脑血管、高血压、中风等疾病。
而不正常的半月痕為數量少的半月痕。數量越少，表示體質越寒，所以手腳冰冷而免疫力弱。
寒底型
• 半月痕少至無
• 臟腑功能低，氣血運行慢所以容易疲勞以及精神不振，但卻嗜睡
• 面色蒼白，手腳冰冷，容易感冒
• 气滞血瘀，痰湿停滞，痰湿结节
• 消化不良，吸收能力差，體質下降
熱底型
• 凡小指都有半月痕。
• 半月痕大于指甲的五分之一
• 體内陽氣較旺，臟腑功能較強所以體質較好
• 但是因爲陽氣較旺盛，所以有面紅的跡象，容易上火煩躁，便秘、口干、食量大
• 手腳不怕冷，好動
• 血壓高，血糖高，易中風
寒熱交錯型
• 半月痕的边界模糊不清、颜色逐渐接近甲体颜色者，属寒热交
错或阴阳失调。
• 初期：半月痕边缘开始不清，如放光芒状
• 中期：半月痕开始缩小
• 后期：半月痕逐渐减少并消失
而半月痕的顔色能告知你某些健康的秘密哦！
1. 奶白色 - 正常，精力強壯，體質好
2. 灰色 - 精弱，脾胃消化吸收功能不好，容易貧血+疲倦
3. 粉紅色 - 臟腑功能下降，體力消耗過大，容易引起糖尿
病、甲肮等病症
4. 紫色 - 容易引起心脑血管血液循环不良，供血供氧不足，易头晕、头痛、脑动
脉硬化
5. 黑色 - 多见于严重的心脏病、肿瘤或长期服药引起药物和重金属中毒
而每一個手指的半月痕都和身體的某一部分有著不可磨滅的關係。
拇指
• 肺脾
• 呈粉红色时，表示胰脏机能不良，容易感冒、反复感冒、疲劳，严重时易患糖尿
病
食指
• 肠胃
• 呈粉红色时，表示胃、大肠的循环不良，食欲自然减退
中指
• 心包经、神志
• 呈粉红色时，表示精神过度紧张，易头晕、头痛、思路不清、脑涨、失眠、多梦
無名指
• 内分泌
• 呈粉红色时，表示运行于无名指的三焦经发生异常，易体质下降、阴阳失调，人容
易有种说不出的不舒服感，女性会得月经不调等妇科病
小指
• 心肾
• 小指一般很难长出半月痕，出现时，多为热症
• 呈红色时，易患严重的心脏病
如何再次長出半月痕？半月痕和身體的精髓元氣大有關聯。而以中醫學來説元氣是用來濡养全身五脏六腑以及推動五臟六腑的氣血運行，進而增強免疫功能以及长寿抗衰老物质。所以，儅一個人精力不足時，最先要補充的就是蛋白質。當然，如果能適時地補充其他的維他命和礦物質是對身體更加的好！而優質的蛋白質為中性為好，比如，奶類（酸奶，牛奶）、蛋類、豆類、魚類、黑色性食物（補腎）、种籽性食物、胚胎性食物等。堅持一、兩個月以後，就可以看到半月痕的出現了。
而你的半月痕，還在嗎？

必須天天飲用不間斷，輕症三週見效。重症三個月見效。
有效病來：
肺癌得以控制
丁先生耳下生一個腫瘤，被診斷是末期癌細胞，用放射療法之後，癌細胞轉移到肺部，成為肺癌，被宣告已經是到了無法治療的階段。丁先生以積極的態度，回到家裡實行鮮汁療法。目前已經控制住癌細胞的蔓延，體力漸漸恢復，而且幾乎可以回到工作崗位。
肝炎、花粉症、濕疹
須女士六十八歲，患慢性肝炎、花粉症、濕疹。醫生分析，肝炎惡化，會使食道、胃腸易患癌症。須女士的父親、叔父、叔母和姐姐都因癌症而去世，她很擔心自己也會得癌症。所以當她看到馬鈴薯鮮汁對治療癌症有效的文章之後，就毫不猶豫隨即把馬鈴薯配合蘋果一起榨成鮮果汁，如此更可口易喝，她把鮮汁視為「生命之水」，一回氣就全部喝完了。
不久，奇蹟出現，二個月後檢查：病情穩定」。四個用後檢查：「接近正常」。
除了肝炎顯著改善之外，還有二件值得慶幸的意外收穫：
第一：她長年受花粉症的困擾，今年春天沒有出現這? 症狀。
第二：以往手腳一吹到冷風，就會出現紅疹，非常痕癢，又稱濕疹。
今年卻一次也沒有。這都是飲馬鈴薯鮮汁的功效，體質獲得改善，身體的自癒能力增強所致，須女士現在心情非常愉快。
四十年白眼球赤熱，三個月根治
林先生五十八歲，從十七歲開始雙目常赤熱，中醫診斷是「肝經積鬱」，服藥多年無效。西醫診斷說是城市空氣污染承致，最好移居鄉村，但是居住鄉村十幾年，眼未見好轉。由於白眼球長期充血呈紅色，朋友戲稱他外號叫荔枝眼。
去年幸獲讀了三合一新鮮果汁文章之後，每天清早空腹飲
500㏄鮮汁，一個月後雙眼明顯好轉，赤熱減退。
三個月後，雙目黑白分明，從此再也沒有赤熱的現象。
肝硬化，居然有救
高女士五十九歲，患肝硬化，食道靜脈瘤破裂，大量吐血，皮膚黃疸，臉和手腳浮腫，終日昏昏睡夢中，多次入院施手術，亦曾經嘗試各種療法和健康食品，但因肝臟太差，承以總是無效。突然在一個契機經朋友介紹，聽到馬鈴薯鮮汁對治癌症有很好效果，於是立刻動手做馬鈴薯鮮汁。
材料是馬鈴薯、紅蘿蔔、蘋果、再加三份一的檸檬汁調味，三種一起榨汁即時飲用，一個小時後才吃早餐。
新奇的新鮮果汁-- 無價至寶
日本禪宗高僧富澤知芳大師，提個馬鈴薯鮮汁療法，有顯著的神奇藥效。

Pain killer is really a killer !
One real story from a friend....
My husband was working in a hospital as an IT engineer, as the hospital is planning to set up a database of its patient. And he knows some of the doctors quite well.
The doctors used to tell him that whenever they have a headache, they are not willing to take PANADOL (PARACETMOL) . In fact,they will turn to Chinese Herbal Medicine or find other alternatives.
This is because Panadol is toxic to the body, and it harms the liver. According to the doctor, Panadol will reside in the body for at least 5 years. And according to the doctor, there used to be an incident where an air stewardess consumes a lot of panadol during her menstrual as she needs to stand all the time. She's now in her early 30's, and she needs to wash her kidney (DIALYSIS) every month.
As said by the doctor that whenever we have a headache, that's because it is due to the electron/Ion imbalance in the brain. As an alternative solution to cope with this matter, they
suggested that we buy 1 or 2 cans of isotonic drink ( eg.100PLUS), and mix it with drinking water according to a ratio of 1:1 or 1:2 (simply, it means one cup 100plus, one cup water.or 2 cups water).
Another method will be to submerge your feet in a basin of warm water so that it bring the blood pressure down from your throbbing head.
As Panadol is a pain killer, the more Panadol you take, the lesser would be your threshold for pain (your endurance level for pain).
We all will fall ill as we aged, for woman, we would need to go through childbirth. Imagine that we had spent our entire life popping quite a substantial amount of Panadol (Pain Killer) when you need to have a surgery or operation, you will need a much more amount of general anesthetic to numb your surgical pain than the average person who seldom or rarely takes Panadol .. If you have a very high intake of Panadol throughout your life (Migraine, Menstrual cramps) it is very likely that normal general anesthetic will have no effects on you as your body is pumped
full with panadol and your body is so used to pain killer that you would need a much stronger pain killer, Morphine??
Value your life, THINK before you easily pop that familiar pill into your mouth again. Please tell eaveryone you care about.

A Guide to Choose Healthy Oils
By Dr. Ben Kim (Healthy Eating Resources)November 10, 2008.
If you're not sure how to choose healthy oils for cooking, it's important that you understand the essential differences between saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fatty acids. Once you understand the basic characteristics of these fatty acids, you'll know which commonly available oils are good for your health, and which ones you should avoid whenever possible.
Here's a look at the basic differences between the three types of fatty acids that are found in all commonly available oils:
Saturated fatty acids pack together tightly, making oils that contain a large percentage of them extremely stable when exposed to heat and light. Oils that have a high percentage of saturated fatty acids are your best choice for cooking.
Monounsaturated fatty acids do not pack together as tightly as saturated fatty acids do. They are relatively stable when exposed to heat, so oils that contain a high percentage of monounsaturated fatty acids are a fair choice for cooking.
Polyunsaturated fatty acids do not pack together very well. They are unstable when extracted out of whole foods, so oils that have a high percentage of polyunsaturated fatty acids tend to produce significant amounts of free radicals when exposed to heat. These oils should never be used for cooking.
So in evaluating plant oils for cooking, it should be clear that oils that contain a high percentage of saturated fatty acids are more stable than those that contain a high percentage of polyunsaturated fatty acids. When exposed to heat and light during processing, storage, and use, oils that contain a high percentage of polyunsaturated fatty acids tend to contain more free radicals than oils that contain mainly saturated and/or monounsaturated fatty acids.
To put this information to use, here's a look at the fatty acid composition of fourteen oils that are commonly available at regular grocery and health food stores:
Coconut Oil:
% Saturated % Monounsaturated % Polyunsaturated
91.9 / 6.2 / 1.9
Coconut oil is by far the healthiest cooking oil. For information on the premium coconut oil that I use and recommend, please feel free to view: The Health Benefits of Premium Virgin Coconut Oil.
Palm Oil:
% Saturated % Monounsaturated % Polyunsaturated
51.6 / 38.7 / 9.7
Of all commonly available plant oils, palm oil is second only to coconut oil in its ability to remain stable when exposed to heat. If you did not use palm oil when you were growing up, you might find its taste and odor to be objectionable.
Olive Oil:
% Saturated % Monounsaturated % Polyunsaturated
13.8 / 75.9 / 10.3
Its high percentage of monounsaturated fatty acids makes olive oil relatively stable when exposed to heat. For cooking, it is the next best choice after coconut and palm oil. If you have difficulty maintaining your ideal weight, use olive oil sparingly, as its monounsaturated fatty acids are quite long in structure, which makes them more prone to being stored as fat than short or medium chain fatty acids. Believe it or not, butter is less likely to cause weight gain than olive oil because it contains a high percentage of short and medium chain fatty acids.
Avocado Oil:
% Saturated % Monounsaturated % Polyunsaturated
12.1 / 73.8 / 14.1
Like olive oil, it has a high percentage of monounsaturated fatty acids, which makes avocado oil relatively stable when exposed to heat. Avocado oil is best used for skin moisturizing purposes. Coconut oil is also an excellent skin moisturizer, and is less expensive per ounce than avocado oil.
Peanut Oil:
% Saturated % Monounsaturated % Polyunsaturated
18.0 / 48.0 / 34.0
Because it has slightly more monounsaturated fatty acids than polyunsaturated fatty acids, peanut oil is relatively stable when exposed to heat. If you use peanut oil, I recommend that you limit use to just a few times per month.
Sesame Oil:
% Saturated % Monounsaturated % Polyunsaturated
14.9 / 41.5 / 43.6
Sesame oil has almost equal percentages of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids. It shouldn't be used for cooking on a regular basis, and should be used raw only on occasion.
Canola Oil:
% Saturated % Monounsaturated % Polyunsaturated
7.4 / 61.6 / 31.0
Although it contains a high percentage of relatively stable monounsaturated fatty acids, canola oil goes rancid quite easily, and relative to olive oil, forms high concentrations of trans fatty acids. Canola oil consumption has also been linked to vitamin E deficiency and heart disease, especially when a person is not getting enough saturated fatty acids in his or her diet. I recommend staying away from canola oil whenever possible.
Corn, Sunflower, Safflower, and Cottonseed Oils:
% Saturated % Monounsaturated % Polyunsaturated
Corn 13.6 / 29.0 / 57.4
Sunflower 10.8 / 20.4 / 68.7
Safflower 6.5 / 15.1 / 78.4
Cottonseed 27.1 18.6 54.3
I recommend staying away from these oils completely. All of them contain large percentages of polyunsaturated fatty acids. They also have high concentrations of omega-6 fatty acids, which can cause a variety of health problems as described in my look at healthy vs. unhealthy fats and oils.
Hemp and Flaxseed Oil:
% Saturated % Monounsaturated % Polyunsaturated
Hemp 10.0 / 12.5 / 77.5
Flaxseed 9.8 / 21.1 / 69.1
I don't recommend cooking with these oils because of their high concentrations of unstable polyunsaturated fatty acids. If their manufacturers have minimized exposure to heat and light with their processing and bottling techniques, a small amount of these oils in their raw forms can be a part of a healthy diet. But it's healthier to eat their seeds freshly ground.
Grape seed Oil:
% Saturated % Monounsaturated % Polyunsaturated
10.0/ 16.8 / 73.2
Grape seed oil should also be avoided when cooking. As with most other vegetable oils, it contains a high percentage of polyunsaturated fatty acids which produce significant amounts of free radicals when exposed to heat.
Please Note: I calculated all of the fatty acid percentages listed above using the nutrient profiles for each oil as listed under the USDA nutrient database.
Based on the information above, I generally recommend using mainly coconut oil and/or olive oil for cooking.

Black Fungus "Mok Yee" - A herbal treatment for High Blood cholesterol
I want to share a secret for treating high cholesterol. Three weeks ago l went for a cholesterol check. To my surprise, it was above the normal range which should be less than 5.2 mmol/L. My reading obtained was 6.6. I had been cons umi ng alot of
red meat and lamb recently. After cons umi ng Mok Yee for two weeks, l had my
cholesterol checked again and found that my cholesterol level fell to 4.70 mmol/L
My pharmacist said that even cholesterol medication will need 1- 3 months to take
effect. She was very surprised and said it is a miracle.
Review:
I immediately followed an advice of a friend who told me about Black fungus (Mok Yee). He had four blocked heart arteries, over 90 percent blocked. His cardiologist advised him to go for bypass surgery, failing which he would suffer an imminent heart attack. His sinseh (chinese physician) friend advised him against surgery as the procedure would be messy,painful and expensive. He followed the advise of his sinseh friend by cons umi ng Mok Yee daily. After cons umi ng boiled Mok Yee juice for 40 days, he went for an angiogram. His heart specialist was surprised and shocked that his arteries were all cleared of any blockage and it would not be necessary to see him for another 10 years!
My observation is that Mok Yee juice is not only effective in treating high blood cholestrol but also helps to bring relief to joint paints, arthritis and poor blood circulation.
The internet info. claims : that Mok yee reduces blood clot, preventing thrombosis,
atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease, and cancer. Black Fungus contains abundant proteins, ferric iron, calcium, vitamins, rough fibre, the content of protein is equal to meat.
Preparation :
1) Pick a handful of Mok Yee and soak in water for 1-2 hours
2) Wash Mok Yee and cut to pieces with scissors.
3) Pour five bowls of plain water into slow cooker (crock pot)
4) Put 2-3 slices of ginger, 8-10 red dates, 20 kay chee(wolf berry)
into crock pot.
5) Bring to boil for 8 hours. One and a half bowls of Mok Yee juice will remain
after boiling overnight.
Consumption : You may consume for 10 to 14 days according to the severity
of the problem. For those with low blood pressure consume less or only
for alternate days.
Drink Mok Yee first thing in the morning with an 'empty stomach'. Consume
at least one large bowl. Take breakfast 2 hours later.
Side effects - you may feel a little tired after 3- 4 days. Consume multivitamins
and fresh fruits and vegetables daily. Do not eat oily or fried foods during
this period.
Observation : Dark and oily stool during the first two days.
Remarks : Cholesterol medication is man-made and may harm the liver.
Mok Yee is a plant and does not seem to contain chemicals that harm the body.

What is MELAMINE ?
Melamine is an organic compound that is often combined with formaldehyde to produce melamine resin, a synthetic polymer which is fire resistant and heat tolerant. Melamine resin is a very versatile material with a highly stable structure. Uses for melamine include whiteboards, floor tiles, kitchenware, fire retardant fabrics, and commercial filters. Melamine can be easily molded while warm, but will set into a fixed form. This property makes it ideally suited to certain industrial applications.
Melamine resin is manufactured by mixing urea with formaldehyde under heat and pressure. The substances begin to polymerize and are forced into a mold which will create the desired shape. Under pressure, melamine releases water, which could make the plastic unstable if it is not removed. The materials finish polymerizing and create a finished product, melamine resin.
Melamine resin is known as a thermoset plastic, because the plastic is fixed after molding. If exposed to enough heat, melamine will melt. For this reason, melamine dishware should not be exposed to high temperatures like those in the oven and microwave. However, the plastic is able to withstand higher temperatures than other plastics. Because it is a thermoset plastic, melamine resin is difficult to recycle.
Melamine can be made into a foam product. Melamine foam has a distinctive structure composed of stacked bubble shapes, which are extremely hard and therefore can easily clean a wide variety of substances. Melamine foam is marketed under a variety of commercial names including Magic Eraser, a cleaning tool well known for removing scuffs and dirt from a wide range of surfaces.
Melamine resin is used in Formica and similar construction products made from composite materials. Formica is made using melamine resin, which is used to coat the fibers in the upper layer of the construction product. The melamine resin makes the end result heat resistant, so that hot objects can be set on the counter without concern. The surface of the material is designed to be easily wiped and cleaned, creating a long lived household product.
Melamine also plays a role in a wide range of flame resistant materials. These include textiles used in upholstery and the uniforms worn by firemen. Thermal liners, heat resistant gloves, and aprons to protect from splashback of hot substances are made using melamine. Melamine will protect a wearer from heat hazards, and will help to resist the spread of fire in aircraft and buses by providing a fire blocker.
Melamine is also used in the manufacture of some filters. The material is porous and will admit substances to pass through, but can be used to filter out particles of a particular size. Melamine filters are capable of handling a high capacity and can be used in hot environments due to the heat resistance of melamine. Melamine filters are also extremely efficient.
Aside from common commercial uses, melamine became a topic of much discussion in early 2007, when veterinary scientists determined it to be the cause of hundreds of pet deaths, because of pet food contamination. Prior to these reports, melamine had been regarded as non-toxic or minimally toxic. However, because of the unexplained presence of melamine in wheat gluten added to mass-produced dog and cat foods, it is the most likely cause. Pet owners report symptoms that are commonly associated with renal failure, which could be explained by the ammonia that may result from the digestion of the melamine.

Avoid biscuits without labels: Health Ministry
KUALA LUMPUR: Biscuit lovers are advised not to buy loose biscuits from night markets, farmers’ markets and shops.
The Health Ministry’s Food Safety and Quality Division director Noraini Mohd Othman said this was to avoid buying biscuits that contained melamine exceeding the permissible level.
She said consumers must also be more alert to avoid food that could jeopardise their health and their family’s.
“We can only educate consumers, but they make the decisions when purchasing goods. Read the labels before buying.
“Don’t only think that loose biscuits are cheaper, but think of the effects the tainted biscuits have when we consume them,” said Noraini in a statement faxed to Bernama, here on Tuesday.
Noraini also advised retailers to be more responsible and to often check the ministry’s website to avoid selling food products tainted with melamine.
“If there is a food product that does not contain the permissible level of melamine, we hope they will remove it from the shelves or contact the District Health Office or State Health Department for more information.
“We also urge consumers to go through the list of products not approved by the ministry to avoid buying unsafe products,” she said.
The division today certified four products from China and four more biscuits from Malaysia to be safe for consumption.
The products from China are Hapi brand Strawberry Sandwich Biscuits, Jiahui brand Pizza Biscuits (Red Packet) and CHong brand Soda Biscuits (Green Packet) as well as Hichime brand fruit milk chew candy.
The four local products are Biskut Marie Kecil, Biskut Rokok S, Biskut Rokok L2 and Biskut Milk Fat Short Cake, all produced by Khian Guan. - Bernama

Star Fruit Can Kill - Beware !!
This is not an April Fool Joke. But a stern reminder to all my readers. We were advised to have a few servings of fruits a day in order to reap the benefits of fruits right? But obviously this is one big no-no fruit to be excluded from your fruity feast!
In Shenzen, more than 10 people who consumes the star fruit had died. And now a 66-year-old, Malaysian who has been suffering from kidney ailment fell into coma after eating the start fruits. Yes, all it takes is one fruit or 100ml of its juice and the ordinarily harmless star fruit transforms poison in a matter of hours for kidney patients. So does this mean, people without kidney problems should be fine with star fruit! My take: Not at all! Prevention is better right?
Universiti Malaya Medical Centre consultant nephrologist said that star fruits contain a neurotoxin which is not present in other fruits. It affects the brain and nerves. In healthy persons, the kidneys filter it out. But for those with kidney problems, this potent toxin cannot be removed and will worsen the consumers' conditions.
The symptoms of start fruit poisoning include:
~Hiccups
~Numbness and weakness
~Feeling confused
~Agitation
~Epileptic fits
The risk of death is high if you are having kidney ailments! But healthy individuals should beware of this fruit's potential toxin too. It could also cripple your vitality if you are not lucky. So don't take it for granted. It's better to avoid them. Please pass this news to others.

中風急救法
患了中風，腦部的微血管，會慢慢的破裂，遇到這種情形，千萬別慌，患者無論在什麼地方 …
《不管是浴室、臥房或客廳。》， 千萬不可搬動他。 因為，如果移動，會加速微血管的破裂。
所以要先原地把患者扶起坐穩以防止再摔倒，這時才開始 【放血】。
家中如有專為注射用的針，當然最好，如果沒有，就拿縫衣用的銅針，或是大頭針，用火燒一下消毒！
就在患者的十個手指頭尖兒《沒有固定穴道，大約距離手指甲一分之處。》 刺上去，要刺出血來 【萬一血不出來，可用手擠。】，
等十個手指頭都流出血來 《每指一滴》大約幾分鐘之後，患者就會自然清醒！
如果嘴也歪了，就拉他的耳朵，把耳朵拉紅，在兩耳的耳垂兒的部位，各刺兩針，也各流兩滴血，幾分鐘以後，嘴就恢復原狀了。
等患者一切恢復正常感覺沒有異狀時再送醫，就一定可以轉危為安，否則，若是急著抬上救護車送醫，經一路的顛跛震動恐怕還沒到醫院，他腦部微血管，差不多已經都破裂了。
萬一能夠吉人天相，保全老命，能像孫院長，容得勉強行動，那得要靠祖上的庇蔭了。
放血救命法，是住在新竹的中醫師夏伯挺 先生說的。且是經自己親身實驗，敢說百分之百有效。
大概是民國六十八年我在台中逢甲學院任教，有天上午，我正在上課，一位老師跑到我的教室上氣不接下氣的說：『 劉老師快來，主任中風了！』。
我立刻跑到三樓，看到陳幅添主任，氣色不正，語意模糊，嘴也歪了，很明顯的是中風了。 立即請工讀生到校門外的西藥房，買來一支注射用的針頭，就在陳主任十個手指頭上直刺。
等十個手指尖兒都見血了 《豆粒似的一滴》。
大約幾分鐘以後，陳主任的氣色就變過來了，兩眼也有神了，只有嘴還歪著，我就拉搓他的耳朵，使之充血，等把耳朵拉紅，就在左右耳垂之處，各刺兩針，待兩耳垂都流出兩滴血來，奇蹟就出現了！
大約不到三五分鐘，他的嘴形，恢復正常了，說話也清清楚楚了。
讓他靜坐一陣子，喝了一杯熱茶，才扶他下樓，開車送到惠華醫院，打一罐點滴，休息了一夜，第二天；就出院回學校上課了。 一切照常工作，毫無後遺症。
反觀一般腦中風患者，都是送醫院治療時，經過一路震盪血管急速破裂，以致多數患者一病不起，所以腦中風，在死因排行榜上高居第二位，其最幸運者，也僅能保住老命，而落得終身殘廢。
這是一個多麼可怕的病症。如果大家都能記住這 《放血救命》的方法，立刻施救，在短短時間它能起死回生，
而且保證百分之百的正常。
這個急救法，希望大家告訴大家。
那腦中風，在死因排行榜上，就可以除名了。
● 閱後傳知他人，功德無量！●

掌握正確睡眠的要領
掌握正確睡眠的要領:
1.人體的運作要符合大自然的規律 睡眠的黃金時段：晚間10時上床睡6小時抵過從凌晨3時睡到正午的效果,因為晚上11點到凌晨3點是整個身體自然修補的時間;人在這4個小時能充分睡眠,可以徹底得到休息.如果到晚上1點還不睡,這時人體的代謝作用是用內分泌直接燃燒,內分泌燃燒產生的毒素非常多,會使體質變酸,人會特別容易疲勞。
2.養成定時睡眠的習慣 人體本身有生物鐘,定時睡覺很容易入睡。
3.正確的睡姿是右側吉祥臥,身體最放鬆,睡眠效果最好 俯睡使脊柱彎曲,增加肌肉及韌帶的壓力，而仰臥身體繃緊，無法讓身體真正放鬆。
4.晚餐時間不宜太遲,最好能在睡前3 ~ 4小時前吃,晚餐也不宜吃得太飽,七分飽即可。三餐 盡量選擇安神的食物,晚餐則要少吃涼性食物,另外晚上不要喝茶、咖啡等刺激性飲料。
* 謹記「早上不飲酒,晚上不喝茶」的原則
5.每天做適量的運動 可以有效的提升睡眠品質,提升人體免疫力,並可改善骨質疏鬆,預防各種慢性病。
* 運動最好能在戶外進行 如登山,競走,騎腳踏車,打球等,平時也可以用爬樓梯代替乘電梯,走路代替坐車等方式來運動。
* 絕對禁止在冷氣房運動,那樣只會讓身體越來越糟!
6.學習樂天知足的人生觀 世事豈能盡如人意,凡事往好的一面想,人生的低潮往往是高潮的開始,失敗中常常蘊藏成功的契機。人要學會知足常樂,肚量越大,福報越大。不計較,不比較,好睡覺。
* 謹記睡前不要高聲談笑,也不要做過激運動,以免情緒過亢,難以入眠。
如果還是睡不好,建議再採用::
1. 芳香嗅覺法
針對來自於工作或生活壓力過大的睡眠失調情形，可利用自然的芳香療法，透過薰衣草、洋甘菊、佛手柑或香草等香氛味道，幫助穩定緊張、慌亂的情緒，加強身心放鬆的速度，以達到助眠的效果。
* 精油不要用點燃式的,以免發生意外。
2. 觸覺溫熱法
睡前，可利用沐浴泡澡的方式，藉由溫熱的水溫，增進身心舒緩的效果，滴入芳香精油或海鹽於浴池中，可達事半功倍的效果。
* 無法泡澡時,可改用熱水泡腳,也有相同效果
三、最後請大家注意一些小細節:
1. 不要戴「手錶」睡覺
2. 不要戴「假牙」睡覺
3. 不要戴「胸罩」睡覺
4. 不要帶「手機」睡覺
5. 不要帶「妝」睡覺
起床後不要立即疊被,人體本身─—也是一個污染源,起床後,請把被子掀開,讓身體一晚上排出的廢氣盡量散出來。

ASPARTAME - THE SILENT KILLER
Deadly news... worth to read...
ASPARTAME - THE SILENT KILLER
For those who take “Sugar Free” candies, sweets or soft drinks, please note that they contain Aspartame – THE SILENT KILLER !
This website shows the adverse effects of ASPARTAME:

Sugar free products contain ASPARTAME .. So don't consume “Sugar Free” products which contain ASPARTAME - THE SILENT KILLER (by Ron Harder)
To those who prefer to consume artificial flavoring:
There is an epidemic across North America today of Multiple Sclerosis and Lupus. Most people do not understand why this epidemic is happening, and they do not know why these diseases are so rampant. I would like to share with you the main reason we are having this very serious problem. Many people today use artificial sweeteners in their tea or coffee.
They do this because the ads they see on TV tell them that sugar is bad for their health. This is absolutely true. Sugar is toxic to us , but what most people use as a replacement for sugar is much more deadly. I am talking about ASPARTAME. It is the cause of the epidemic that was mentioned above. ASPARTAME is an extremely toxic chemical.
ASPARTAME is being marketed around the world as a sugar substitute and is found in all “Diet Soft Drinks”. It is also found in artificial sweeteners and it is used in many other products as a sugar replacement.
ASPARTAME is marketed as a diet product, but it is not a diet product at all. In fact, it will cause you to GAIN weight because it makes you crave carbohydrates. Causing you to gain weight is only a very small part of what ASPARTAME does. It is a toxic chemical that changes the brain's chemistry. It can and does cause severe seizures.
This chemical changes the dopamine level in the brain, and it is particularly deadly for anyone suffering from Parkinson's disease.
ASPARTAME is extremely poisonous, and here is why one of the toxic ingredients of it is wood alcohol. When the temperature of ASPARTAME exceeds 86 degrees F, the wood alcohol in it is converted to Formaldehyde, and then to formic acid, which in turn causes folic acidosis.
FORMALDEHYDE is grouped in the same class of poisons as Cyanide and Arsenic which are very deadly toxins. The only difference is, Formaldehyde kills quietly, and it takes a little longer. And, in the process of killing people, it causes all kinds of neurological problems. There are 92 documented symptoms of Aspartame Poisoning leading to coma and death.
The majority of these symptoms are neurological, because the ASPARTAME attacks and destroys the nervous system. One of these symptoms is Lupus, which has become almost as rampant as Multiple Sclerosis, especially with “Diet” soft drinkers.

Self Detoxification - Using Garlic
Before you go to bed at night, prepare this magic potion:
Finely chop or use the food blender to chop up two cloves of fresh garlic and let it expose to the air for a few minutes while you wash up your blender or chopping board.
The chopping releases the enzyme allinase in the garlic. Gather the chopped garlic on a spoon and swallow it with water. The garlic will travel your entire digestive tract while you sleep and scavenge and neutralize all the toxins, carcinogens, harmful bacteria, fungi, viruses, foreign chemical before they can harm your healthy cells.
Swallowing the chopped garlic will not give you garlic breath, as long as you don't chew it. You brush your teeth and rinse your mouth before you go to bed anyway.
In the morning, drink a big glass of water. Your first bowel movement will have a strong garlic odor and you will know that the harmful stuff have been eliminated from your body. Try it, especially if you have had a bad eating day.

腦中風急救法 - A NEEDLE CAN SAVE THE LIFE OF A STROKE PATIENT
(PLEASE CLIP TO ENLARGE THE IMAGE)
From a Chinese Professor.
Keep a syringe or needle in your home to do this...
It's amazing and an unconventional way of recovering from stroke, read it through it can help somebody one day.
This is amazing. Please keep this very handy. Excellent tips.
Do take a minute to read this. You'll never know, ones life may depend on you.
My father was paralysed and later died from the result of a stroke.
I wish I knew about this first aid before.
When stroke strikes, the capillaries in the brain will gradually burst.
(Irene Liu)
When a stroke occurs, stay calm.
No matter where the victim is, do not move him/her because, if moved, the capillaries will burst. Help the victim to sit up where he/she is to prevent him/her from falling over again and then the blood letting can begin. If you have in your home an injection syringe that would be the best. Otherwise, a sewing needle or a straight pin will do.
1. Place the needle/pin over fire to sterilize it and then use it to prick the tip of all ......10 fingers.
2. There are no specific acupuncture points, just prick about an mm from the fingernail.
3. Prick till blood comes out.
4. If blood does not start to drip, then squeeze with your fingers.
5. When all 10 digits is bleeding, wait a few minutes then the victim will regain consciousness.
6. If the victim's mouth is crooked, then pull on his ears until they are red.
7. Then prick each earlobe twice until two drops of blood comes from each earlobe.
After a few minutes the victim should regain consciousness.
Wait till the victim regains his normal state without any abnormal symptoms then take him to the hospital. Otherwise, if he was taken in the ambulance in a hurry to the hospital, the bumpy trip will cause all the capillaries in his brain to burst. If he could save his life, barely managing to walk, then it is by the grace of his ancestors.
“I learned about letting blood to save life from Chinese traditional doctor, Ha Bu Ting, who lives in Sun Juke. Furthermore, I had practical experience with it. Therefore, I can say this method is 100% effective. In 1979, I was teaching in Fung Gaap College in Tai Chung. One afternoon, I was teaching a class when another teacher came running to my classroom and said in panting,
'Ms Liu, come quick, our supervisor has had a stroke!'. I immediately went to the 3rd floor.
When I saw our supervisor, Mr. Chen Fu Tien, his colour was off, his speech was slurred, his mouth was crooked - all the symptoms of a stroke. I immediately asked one of the practicum students to go to the pharmacy outside the school to buy a syringe, which I used to prick Mr. Chen's 10 fingers tips. When all 10 fingers were bleeding (each with a pea-sized drop of blood), after a few minutes, Mr. Chen's face regained its colour and his eyes' spirit returned, too. But his mouth was still crooked. So I pulled on his ears to fill them with blood. When his ears became red, I pricked his right earlobe twice to let out two drops of blood. When both earlobes had two drops of blood each, a miracle happened. Within 3-5 minutes the shape of his mouth returned to normal and his speech became clear. We let him rest for a while and have a cup of hot tea, then we helped him go down the stairs, drove him to Wei Wah Hospital . He rested one night and was released the next day to return to school to teach. Everything worked normally. There were no ill after effects. On the other hand, the usual stroke victim usually suffers Irreparable bursting of the brain capillaries on the way to the hospital. As a result, these victims never recover.” - - (Irene Liu).
Therefore, stroke is the second cause of death. The lucky ones will stay alive but can remain paralysed for life. It is such a horrible thing to happen in ones life. If we can all remember this blood letting method and start the life saving process immediately, in a short time, the victim will be revived and regain 100% normality.

十榖米
去年夏天的一個半夜，劉哲豪和往常一樣上夜班時，肚子突然絞痛，而且排出大量鮮血，讓他差點暈倒。
緊急送往三總急診，醫師告訴他是「直腸癌末期併肝轉移」。
他開始接受治療，腸子切了十幾公分，前後開了四次刀，足足有七、八個月不能工作。
在化療之後，臉與手腳全部變黑浮腫，連走路都有困難。「醫師說我這種病起碼要二十年才能形成，冰凍三尺非一日之寒。
我回想過去二十年，發現自己雖然滴酒不沾，卻超愛吃消夜，幾乎天天都吃，而且偏愛碳烤的東西，凡是天上飛的、地上爬的、海裡游的，我都喜歡吃，三餐沒有海鮮就吃不下，蝦子可以一次吃半斤一斤。
經常半夜吃得漲漲的回家，看到大家都睡了，也倒頭就睡。這樣的日子過了十七、八年。」劉哲豪回憶說。
痛定思痛，他決定在吃的方面「痛改前非」，不該吃的不再吃，過去吃錯的，全部調整過來。
他開始自己找資料，看書看報上網，最後斷定自己是吃了太多酸性物質，要讓身體健康，必須調整到鹼性佔七分，酸性佔三分。
他為自己擬了菜單，主食改吃十殼米，就是把糙米、黑糯米、小米、小麥、蕎麥、芡實、燕麥、蓮子、麥片、紅薏仁熬煮在一起，魚不吃，肉只吃一點點，蔬菜水果大量吃，飯後喝綠茶。連吃兩個禮拜之後，他就發現自己體力變好了。後來他又增加了健康食品，包括蜂王乳、蜂膠、啤酒酵母、綠藻等，人更精神了，臉上手上的黑色素慢慢褪去，腳也不腫了，「連頭髮都變黑」。恢復上班之後，同事們都說看不出來他曾經大病一場，許多人也學著吃十穀米，有人多年嘴角破皮的毛病竟自然痊癒，有人解決了陳年疑難雜症。
劉哲豪說，他其實到現在還沒有康復，只是學會與癌共存，用最適當的飲食，讓身體保持最佳狀況。有時候，他會抽空探視一些與自己同病相憐的癌症患者，每個原本滿臉愁雲慘霧者，聽到他的心得報告後，都跟著調整飲食，「我這套提供給他們吃，每個人都有效。」他說。「不要每天就想著自己是癌症，我有個朋友的太太得了乳癌，本來沒什麼，但她天天憂慮，結果一年就死了。病本無害，是心裡做怪，路就走盡了。要把病當做一種挑戰，儘量調整自己去面對挑戰。」一場致命大病，劉哲豪似乎鍛鍊出獨特的意志力，也有一套豁達的生命觀。
在抗癌過程中，妻子耐心照顧陪伴他，他改吃健康餐，太太也跟著吃，「她臉上原本有遺傳性黑斑，現在通通沒有了，人變得漂亮又有精神。」
十榖米
大陸少林寺果林老和尚，現年一百零三歲，仙風道骨。精神钁鑠，聲若洪鐘，健步如飛，貌似六十開外。有人求長壽之道，師父說：「每日一碗十穀健康粥」。果林老和尚將秘方傳予 徐上德醫師。有一弱女子，被宣布罹患鼻咽癌，其母每日親熬十穀健康粥，癌症竟奇蹟似地縮小，癌症指數降為正常，主治醫師直呼不可能，問其吃何種藥物，其母說：「皆因十穀健康粥遠勝藥物。」
唐琪小姐現年五十歲，每天一碗十穀健康粥，看起來像三十歲，青春、健康、美麗。健保局總經理 賴美淑醫師每天吃十穀健康粥，永保工作活力。（見聯合報報導）
材料：
糙米、黑糯米、小米、小麥、蕎麥、芡實、燕麥、蓮子、麥片和紅薏仁等分量混合而成。
以上十種，可同時煮熟。
作法１：
晚上時，將十穀米一杯用水洗淨，加水七杯，放入悶燒鍋內鍋中燒開再煮十五分鐘，放入外鍋中加蓋，翌日早晨上班前即可食用。可多煮一點，供三四天食用。
作法２：
晚上時，將十穀米三杯泡水４小時，放入電鍋中，再加水５杯煮成乾飯，待冷卻後，放入冰箱。翌日早晨上班前，取酌量加水四杯煮成稀飯。
備註：小孩子若因口感不喜歡吃時，可加入幾粒龍眼乾或葡萄乾。
若不加糖進食時，可加茶葉蛋一個，風味絕佳，記憶超強，功課一級棒。
成份：
十穀健康米，據科學分析其成份有一百多種有益人體健康的物質，如維生素Ｂ群（Ｂ１，Ｂ２，Ｂ６，Ｂ９，Ｂ１２）、Ｃ、Ａ、Ｅ、Ｋ、Ｄ，礦物質（鈣、鐵、鎂、鉀），微量元素（鋅、鉬、錳、鍺），酵素，抗氧化物、纖維素、氨基酸、生物素，具有降血壓，降膽固醇，清除血栓，舒緩神經之功用，對便秘、高血壓、皮膚病、闌尾炎、失眠、口角炎效果不亞於醫藥，最重要的是沒有副作用。
徐醫師：白米因除去糖麩及胚芽，僅剩碳水化合物，只提供熱量，營養價值遠低於十穀米。
要健康長壽，每天要吃多種類食物，以補充每日新陳代謝所需之酵素。
多吃十穀米，可預防血管硬化、腦中風、痛風、心肌梗塞、癌症等現代文明病。
附記：徐醫師與振銘有數面之緣，目前在台南執業，在台南地區有相當的知名度。

隱形眼鏡 - 小知識，大啟示 ~~~
非常重要！
請告訴你身邊所有戴隱形眼鏡的朋友在烤肉，或任何有可能接觸到火源的地方，請將你的隱形眼鏡拿掉！
聽過一件很可怕的事情發生在 Malacca,…
有一天，一個 21 歲男生戴著隱形眼鏡去參加一個烤肉聚會 !
就在他開始以木炭生火之後的幾分鐘內，他突然大叫，然後很痛苦的跳來跳去，在地上打滾 …
全場的人都嚇呆了，沒人知道究竟發生了什麼事 ?
大家趕緊送他到醫院，醫生說，他永遠都看不見了！
原因是：隱形眼鏡是用塑膠製成的，而就在他生火的同時，過熱的溫度熔化了他的隱形眼鏡！所以請告訴你身邊的朋友烤肉及接觸火源時，請不要戴著隱形眼鏡！！
如果您收到別人分享給您的好文章，不要吝嗇，您也可以繼續分享給好友，請別忘我這一份喔。

Ladies Fingers Magic
Note : Please Click To Enlarge Image
Last month in one of TV program I learnt of a treatment of Sugar
(Diabetes). Since I am diabetic, I tried it and it was very useful and my
Sugar is in control now. In fact I have already reduced my medicine.
Take two pieces of Lady's Finger (Bhindi) and remove/cut both ends of each
piece. Also put a small cut in the middle and put these two pieces in
glass of water. Cover the glass and keep it at room temperature during
night. Early morning, before breakfast simply remove two pieces of lady
finger (bhindi) from the glass and drink that water.
Keep doing it on daily basis.
Within two weeks, you will see remarkable results in reduction of your
SUGAR.
My sister has got rid of her diabetes. She was on Insulin for a few
years, but after taking the lady fingers every morning for a few months,
she has stopped Insulin but continues to take the lady fingers every
day. But she chops the lady fingers into fine pieces in the night, adds
the water and drinks it all up the next morning. Please. try it as it
will not do you any harm even if it does not do much good to you, but U
have to keep taking it for a few months before U see results, as most
cases might be chronic.

Asparagus Cures Cancer
News Journal, December 1979.
"I will share it here, just as it was shared with me:'I am a
biochemist, and have specialised in the relation of diet to health for
over 50 years."
Several years ago, I learned of the discovery of Richard R.Vensal,
D.D.S. that asparagus might cure cancer. Since then, I have worked
with him on his project. We have accumulated a number of favourable
case histories.
Here are a few examples.
Case No. 1, man with an almost hopeless case of Hodgkin's disease
(cancer of the lymph glands) who was completely incapacitated. Within
1 year of starting the asparagus therapy, his doctors were unable to
detect any signs of cancer, and he was back on a schedule of strenuous
exercise.
Case No. 2, a successful businessman 68 years old who suffered from
cancer of the bladder for 16 years. After years of medical treatments,
including radiation without improvement, he went on asparagus. Within
3 months, examinations revealed that his bladder tumour had
disappeared and that his kidneys were normal.
Case No. 3, a man who had lung cancer. On March 5th 1971 he was put on
the operating table where they found lung cancer so widely spread that
it was inoperable. The surgeon sewed him up and declared his case
hopeless. On April 5th he heard about the asparagus therapy and
immediately started taking it. By August, x-ray pictures revealed that
all signs of the cancer had disappeared. He is back at his regular
business routine.
Case No. 4, a woman who was troubled for a number of years with skin
cancer. She finally developed different skin cancers which were
diagnosed by a skin specialist as advanced. Within 3 months after
starting on asparagus, her skin specialist said that her skin looked
fine and no more skin lesions. This woman reported that the asparagus
therapy also cured her kidney disease, which started in 1949. She had
over 10 operations for kidney stones, and was receiving government
disability payments for an inoperable, terminal, kidney condition. She
attributes the cure of this kidney trouble entirely to the asparagus.
I was not surprised at this result, as `The elements of materia
medica', edited in 1854 by a Professor at the University of
Pennsylvania , stated that asparagus was used as a popular remedy for
kidney stones. He even referred to experiments, in 1739, on the power
of asparagus in dissolving stones.
We would have other case histories but the medical establishment has
interfered with our obtaining some of the records. I am therefore
appealing to readers to spread this good news and help us to gather a
large number of case histories that will overwhelm the medical
skeptics about this unbelievably simple and natural remedy.
For the treatment, asparagus should be cooked before using, and
therefore canned asparagus is just as good as fresh.
I have corresponded with the two leading canners of asparagus, Giant
Giant and Stokely, and I am satisfied that these brands contain no
pesticides or preservatives.
Place the cooked asparagus in a blender and liquefy to make a puree,
and store in the refrigerator. Give the patient 4 full tablespoons
twice daily, morning and evening.
Patients usually show some improvement in from 2-4 weeks. It can be
diluted with water and used as a cold or hot drink.
This suggested dosage is based on present experience, but certainly
larger amounts can do no harm and may be needed in some cases.
As a biochemist I am convinced of the old saying that `what cures can
prevent'. Based on this theory, my wife and I have been using
asparagus puree as a beverage with our meals.
We take 2 tablespoons diluted in water to suit our taste with
breakfast and with dinner. I take mine hot and my wife prefers hers
cold. For years we have made it a practice to have blood surveys taken
as part of our regular checkups.
The last blood survey, taken by a medical doctor who specialises in
the nutritional approach to health, showed substantial improvements in
all categories over the last one, and we can attribute these
improvements to nothing but the asparagus drink.
As a biochemist, I have made an extensive study of all aspects of
cancer, and all of the proposed cures. As a result, I am convinced
that asparagus fits in better with the latest theories about cancer.
Asparagus contains a good supply of protein called histones, which are
believed to be active in controlling cell growth.
For that reason, I believe asparagus can be said to contain a
substance that I call cell growth normaliser. That accounts for its
action on cancer and in acting as a general body tonic.
In any event, regardless of theory, asparagus used as we suggest, is a
harmless substance.
The FDA cannot prevent you from using it and it may do you much
good.'It has been reported by the US National Cancer Institute, that
asparagus is the highest tested food containing glutathione, which is
considered one of the body's most potent anticarcinogens and antioxidants.
辨識中風 - 可以救一條命 STROKE - You Could Save A Life
STROKE: Remember The 1st Three Letters... S.T.R .
有個朋友，在一次烤肉聚會當中絆倒了，摔了一跤，旁邊的朋友建議找醫護人員，但她很確定自己沒事， 只是穿了新鞋被磚塊絆了一下罷了。
她還有點危危顫顫站立不穩的時候，朋友們幫她清洗乾淨， 又為她盛了一盤食物，她就跟著大家一起享受接下來的時光了。
她的先生後來打電話通知大家，她被送到醫院，傍晚六點，就過世了，
原因是她在烤肉聚餐的時候中風。
如果他們懂得辨識中風的癥兆，她現在也許還跟我們在一起。
有些人不會死，結局處於無助無望的景況中。
只需要花一分鐘的時間讀完這篇文章，腦神經外科醫師說，如果他能在三小時之內接觸到中風患者，他就可以將中風的後果完全扭轉過來。
訣竅就是辨識診斷出中風的問題，並讓病患在三小時之內接受醫療，
而這是很難的。
辨識中風
感謝上帝讓我們記住 STR 三步驟，請閱讀並學習 !
有時候中風的癥兆很難辨認，不幸的是，缺乏警覺就會帶來災難。
身邊的人辨認不出中風的徵兆，中風患者就會嚴重腦傷。
醫生說，旁人只要問三個簡單的問題，
就可以辨識中風：
S ： (smile) 要求患者笑一下
T ： (talk) 要求患者說一句簡單的句子 ( 要有條理，有連貫性 ) ，例如：今天天氣晴 朗。
R ： (raise) 要求 患者舉起雙手
注意 ：
另外一項中風癥兆是： 要求患者伸出舌頭 ，如果舌頭「彎曲」或偏向一邊，那也是中風的徵兆.
上面四個動作，患者如果有任何一個動作 做不來，就要立刻打999 ！！！並 ! 且把症狀描述給接線者聽。
心臟科醫師說，
收到這封電函的人， 若能將它轉寄給 10 個人，就至少可以救一條命。
My friend sent this to me and encouraged me to post it and spread the word. I agree. If everyone can remember something this simple, we could save some folks.
STROKE IDENTIFICATION:
During a party, a friend stumbled and took a little fall - she assured everyone that she was fine and just tripped over a brick because of her new shoes. (they offered to call ambulance)
They got her cleaned up and got her a new plate of food - while she appeared a bit shaken up, Ingrid went about enjoying herself the rest of the evening. Ingrid's husband called later telling everyone that his wife had been taken to the hospital - (at 6:00pm , Ingrid passed away.)
She had suffered a stroke at the party . Had they known how to identify the signs of a stroke, perhaps Ingrid would be with us today.

STROKE IDENTIFICATION:
A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke...totally. He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed, and then getting the patient medically cared for within 3 hours, which is tough.
RECOGNIZING A STROKE
Remember the '3' steps, STR . Read and Learn!
Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster.
The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke.
Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions :
S * Ask the individual to SMILE .
T * = TALK. Ask the person to SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently) (eg 'It is sunny out today').
R * Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS .
If he or she has trouble with ANY ONE of these tasks, call the ambulance and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher.
NOTE : Another 'sign' of a stroke is
1. Ask the person to 'stick' out their tongue.
2. If the tongue is 'crooked', if it goes to one side or the other that is also an indication of a stroke.
A prominent cardiologist says if everyone who gets this e-mail sends it to 10 people; you can bet that at least one life will be saved.
….and it could be your own…..

Risks Of Taking Cold Drink During Or After A Meal
This is an article not only about drinking of warm water after your meal, but about Heart Attacks. The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals, not cold water, maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating.
For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you. It is nice to have a cup of cold drink during or after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion. Once this 'sludge' reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.
Common Symptoms Of Heart Attack...
A serious note about heart attacks - You should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting . Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line .
You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack. Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms. 60% of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know, the better chance we could survive.

不要在冼頭的同時做按摩
中醫世界│首頁
作者：馬悅淩
現在的理髮店裡乾洗按摩的方法很流行，理髮師在你的頭髮上倒上乾洗用的洗髮水，就開始搓揉頭髮，再幫你按摩頭部、頸部。按摩使頭部的皮膚鬆馳、放鬆、毛孔開放，並通過不斷地按摩促進血液循環，而此時你的頭上全是冰涼的化學洗髮水，這時做按摩會讓頭部的血液循環加快，直接的後果就是吸收化學洗髮水的能力大大增強，從而讓寒氣通過鬆弛、大開的毛孔直接進入你的頭部，後患無窮。
真不知這是什麼人發明的害人方法，而且還流行得那麼廣。其實，只要有一點保健常識的人都能想明白這個道理，居然還會有那麼多的人仍然常常在做這種對身體有極大害處的按摩。
大概是在10年前，這種方法才剛剛興起。我去理髮店洗頭、理髮，老闆給我推薦了這種方法，就答應嘗試一次。因為我的體質非常敏感，帶著冰涼的化學洗髮水按摩完後，我的頭就發蒙、發緊、疼痛，回家後就開始發燒、流鼻涕。我趕緊一邊用溫水泡腳，一邊喝生薑紅糖水，還把兩隻手臂也一起放在桶裡泡，很快就出汗了，汗一出來，頭也就不再難受了。以後我就提醒家人和朋友，千萬別在洗頭的同時按摩。
一次，一個四十多歲的朋友，因頭痛做CT後確診為輕度腦梗，在醫院住院輸液。這個朋友一貫注重儀表，頭髮總是吹得很飄逸。她說，頭痛已好幾年了，也沒在意，可這次頭痛發作得厲害，一檢查是腦梗，想想就害怕。我問她是不是每次去理髮店吹頭的時候，都做那種乾洗按摩？她說，是呀，已有好幾年了，每星期去洗頭、吹頭都做，越是頭痛越想去做按摩，按摩後好像好一些，回家以後頭還是痛。我說你的頭痛及腦梗都是這個按摩造成的，寒氣會在按摩的時候侵入你的頭部，引起腦部血管的收縮，時間久了，就會血管變細，而化學物質的進入，則極易堵塞血管，久而久之就使你患上了腦梗。從現在起，你天天用溫水泡腳，隔幾天再抓一小把艾葉加水煮10分鐘後一起泡，發汗、祛寒。另外，也可用熱水多泡雙手，水溫一定要偏燙一些，手泡過後要有明顯的發麻現象，這樣能很明顯地緩解頭痛。同時注意多吃溫熱的食物，用以補血、補腎、增加腦部的供血，並忌掉一切寒涼的食物。以後再去洗頭，一定要先洗頭，把頭洗乾淨並且吹幹後，再進行頭部按摩，最後再讓他們幫你整理髮型，這樣既讓你過了按摩的癮，又不會傷害你的身體。
這位朋友回家後就按我說的方法去做，不但腦梗塞慢慢消失了，頭痛的毛病也徹底治好了。
不要小看這些細節問題，它們已經違反了生命的規律，長此以往，就會造成對身體的傷害，如果仍然堅持不改的話，甚至會危及生命。

Ways To Prevent Cancer - Must Read !
AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE ONLY
WAY TO TRY (TRY IS THE KEY WORD) AND ELIMINATE CANCER,
JOHN HOPKINS IS FINALLY STARTING TO TELL YOU THERE IS AN
ALTERNATIVE WAY .
Cancer Update from John Hopkins:
1. Every person has cancer cells in the body.
These cancer cells do not show up in the standard tests until they have multiplied to a few billion. W hen doctors tell cancer patients that there are no more cancer cells in their bodies after treatment, it just means the tests are unable to detect the cancer cells because they have not reached the detectable size.
2. Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person's lifetime.
3. When the person's immune system is strong the cancer cells will be destroyed and prevented from multiplying and forming tumours.
4. When a person has cancer it indicates the person has multiple nutritional deficiencies. These could be due to genetic, environmental, food and lifestyle factors.
5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing diet and including supplements will strengthen the immune system.
6. Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly-growing cancer cells and also destroys rapidly-growing healthy cells in the bone marrow, gastro-intestinal tract etc, and can cause organ damage, like liver, kidneys, heart, lungs etc.
7. Radiation while destroying cancer cells also burns, scars and damages healthy cells, tissues and organs.
8. Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will often reduce tumor size. However prolonged use of chemotherapy and radiation do not result in more tumor destruction.
9. When the body has too much toxic burden from chemotherapy and radiation the immune system is either compromised or destroyed, hence the person can succumb to various kinds of infections and complications.
10. Chemotherapy and radiation can cause cancer cells to mutate and become resistant and difficult to destroy. Surgery can also cause cancer cells to spread to other sites.
11. An effective way to battle cancer is to starve the cancer cells by not feeding it with the foods it needs to multiply.
CANCER CELLS FEED ON :
a. Sugar is a cancer-feeder. By cutting off sugar it cuts off an important food supply to the cancer cells. Sugar substitutes like NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc. are made with Aspartame and it is harmful. A better natural substitute would be Manuka honey or molasses but only in very small amounts. Table salt has a chemical added to make it white in colour. Better alternative is Bragg's aminos or sea salt.
b. Milk causes the body to produce mucus, especially in the gastro-intestinal tract. Cancer feeds on mucus. By cutting off milk and substituting with unsweetened soya milk cancer cells are being starved.
c. Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment. A meat-based diet is acidic and it is best to eat fish, and a little chicken rather than beef or pork. Meat also contains livestock antibiotics, growth hormones and parasites, which are all harmful, especially to people
with cancer.
d. A diet made of 80% fresh vegetables and juice, whole grains, seeds, nuts and
a little fruits help put the body into an alkaline environment. About 20% can be from cooked food including beans. Fresh vegetable juices provide live enzymes that are easily absorbed and reach down to cellular levels within 15 minutes to nourish and enhance growth of healthy cells. To obtain live enzymes for building healthy cells try to drink fresh vegetable juice (most vegetables including bean sprouts) and eat some raw vegetables 2 or 3 times a day. Enzymes are destroyed at temperatures of 104 degrees F (40 degrees C).
e. Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high caf feine. Green tea is a better alternative and has cancer-fighting properties. Water-best to drink purified water, or filtered, to avoid known toxins and heavy metals in tap water. Distilled water is acidic, avoid it.
12. Meat protein is difficult to digest and requires a lot of digestive enzymes. Undigested meat remaining in the intestines become putrified and leads to more toxic buildup.
13. Cancer cell walls have a tough protein covering. By refraining from or eating less meat it frees more enzymes to attack the protein walls of cancer cells and allows the body's killer cells to destroy the cancer cells.
14. Some supplements build up the immune system (IP6, Flor ssence, Essiac, anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals, EFAs etc.) to enable the body's own killer cells to destroy cancer cells. Other supplementslike vitamin E are known to cause apoptosis, or programmed cell death, the body's normal method of disposing of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded cells.
15. Cancer is a disease of the mind, body, and spirit. A proactive and positive spirit will help the cancer warrior be a survivor. Anger, unforgiveness and bitterness put the body into a stressful and acidic environment. Learn to have a loving and forgiving spirit. Learn to relax and enjoy life.
16. Cancer cells cannot thrive in an oxygenated environment.
Exercising daily, and deep breathing help to get more oxygen down to the cellular level. Oxygen therapy is another means employed to destroy cancer cells.

1. No plastic containers in micro.
2. No water bottles in freezer.
3. No plastic wrap in microwave.
Johns Hopkins has recently sent this out in its newsletters.
This information is being circulated at Walter Reed Army Medical Center as well.
Dioxin chemicals causes cancer, especially breast cancer.
Dioxins are highly poisonous to the cells of our bodies. Don't freeze your plastic bottles with water in them as this releases dioxins from the plastic.
Recently, Dr. Edward Fujimoto, Wellness Program Manager at Castle Hospital was on a TV program to explain this health hazard.
He talked about dioxins and how bad they are for us. He said that we should not be heating our food in the microwave using plastic containers. This especially applies to foods that contain fat. He said that the combination of fat, high he at, and plastics releases dioxin into the food and ultimately into the cells of the body. Instead, he recommends using glass, such as CorningWare, Pyrex or ceramic containers for heating food. You get the same results, only without the dioxin. So such things as TV dinners, instant ramen and soups, e tc., should be removed from the container and heated in something else. Paper isn't bad but you don't know what is in the paper.
It's just safer to use tempered glass, Corning Ware , etc. He reminded us that a while ago some of the fast food restaurants moved away from the foam containers to paper.
The dioxin problem is one of the reasons.
Also, he pointed out that plastic wrap, such as Saran, is just as dangerous when placed over foods to be cooked in&n bsp; the microwave. As the food is nuked, the high heat causes poisonous toxins to actually melt out of the plastic wrap and drip into the food.
Cover food with a paper towel instead.

Sensory Touches On Your Feet
The Organs of your body have their sensory touches at the bottom of your feet, if you massage these points you will find relief from aches and pains as you can see the heart is on the left foot.
Typically they are shown as points and arrows to show which organ it connects to.
It is indeed correct since the nerves connected to these organs terminate here.
This is covered in great details in Acupressure studies or textbooks.
God created our body so well that he thought of even this. He made us walk so that we will always be pressing these pressure points and thus keeping these organs activated at all times.
So, keep walking...
豆漿減肥可致低血糖
豆漿減肥可致低血糖
(明報專訊) 減肥風氣隨夏天到來而漸漸升溫，台灣最近便流行一種「豆漿減肥法」，以無糖高纖豆漿取代早晚正餐，有人嘗試後聲稱可在6周內減輕12公斤。有本地營養師表示，該豆漿減肥法的卡路里低於人類每日正常攝取量，有減肥效果不足為奇，並指出該餐單的複合碳水化合物含量偏低，長期服用會出現疲勞、脾氣暴躁等低血糖症狀。
台灣流行 稱2周減12公斤
據台灣網站指出，該減肥方法由當地醫生楊名權設計，他表示，無糖高纖豆漿含高蛋白、高纖及低熱量，以其取代主餐的澱粉糧食，可避免肌肉與骨質因減肥而流失。減肥餐單建議人們早晚各飲用一瓶450毫升的無糖高纖豆漿，並輔以蔬果增加飽肚感，午餐不需飲豆漿，但要注意營養均衡與熱量控制於600卡路里內，可隨意配搭食物。
楊名權亦指出，用者必須持續每日作帶氧運動30分鐘才可加強瘦身效果，當地有男子在試用餐單的6星期後，聲稱體重減輕12公斤，令該餐單引來網民熱烈討論。本地註冊營養師劉立儀看過餐單後表示，豆漿減肥法並非人人合適。
痛風腎衰竭病人不宜採用
她解釋，成年女性每日應攝取1200至1500卡路里，男性則需要1500至2000卡路里，該餐單主要以無糖高纖豆漿取代早晚正餐，每日大約僅含1100卡路里，低於標準，「飲用豆漿和蔬菜沙律不能飽肚，加上卡路里偏低，任何人使用該餐單也可減輕體重，不足為奇」。
「值得注意的是，黃豆含有『普林』物質，不適合痛風病患者食用，而且該餐單的蛋白質含量偏高，慢性腎衰竭病人亦不宜食用。」
劉立儀亦提醒普通市民，該減肥法不宜長期使用，否則會出現低血糖症狀。
