    Health Benefits of Aloe Vera
    The aloe vera miracle: A natural medicine for cancer, cholesterol, diabetes, inflammation, IBS, and other health conditions...Must Share

    When I say aloe vera is the most impressive medicinal herb invented by nature, (Garlic would be a close second.) There is nothing on this planet that offers the amazing variety of healing benefits granted by aloe vera. In a single plant, aloe vera offers potent, natural medicine that:

    • Halts the growth of cancer tumors.
    • Lowers high cholesterol.
    • Repairs "sludge blood" and reverses "sticky blood".
    • Boosts the oxygenation of your blood.
    • Eases inflammation and soothes arthritis pain.
    • Protects the body from oxidative stress.
    • Prevents kidney stones and protects the body from oxalates in coffee and tea.
    • Alkalizes the body, helping to balance overly acidic dietary habits.
    • Cures ulcers, IBS, Crohn's disease and other digestive disorders.
    • Reduces high blood pressure natural, by treating the cause, not just the symptoms.
    • Nourishes the body with minerals, vitamins, enzymes and glyconutrients.
    • Accelerates healing from physical burns and radiation burns.
    • Replaces dozens of first aid products, makes bandages and antibacterial sprays obsolete.
    • Halts colon cancer, heals the intestines and lubricates the digestive tract.
    • Ends constipation.
    • Stabilizes blood sugar and reduces triglycerides in diabetics.
    • Prevents and treats candida infections.
    • Protects the kidneys from disease.
    • Functions as nature's own "sports drink" for electrolyte balance, making common sports drinks obsolete.
    • Boosts cardiovascular performance and physical endurance.
    • Speeds recovery from injury or physical exertion.
    • Hydrates the skin, accelerates skin repair.

    Truly, there is nothing else that compares to the medicinal potential of aloe vera. And yet most people only know about the topical applications of aloe vera gel. They think it's only good for sunburns. In reality, aloe vera is useful for both external and internal use

    How To Lower Cholesterol in 7 Days
    How To Lower Cholesterol in 7 Days


    Monday

    Increase your fruit and veggie intake. They are rich in important nutrients, low in saturated fats and are cholesterol-free. They are also rich in fiber, which has a cholesterol-lowering effect. Aim to have at least five serves a day, and to eat a variety of different coloured fruits and veggies each day.

    Tuesday

    Reduce your intake of unhealthy fats. Saturated and trans fats raise blood cholesterol levels. Trans fats are the worst, so limit your intake of processed and fast foods. Choose low-fat dairy products, healthy oils such as olive oil, and flaxseed oil instead of butter. Trim fat from meat and skin from poultry.

    Wednesday

    Cook with olive oil, a source of healthy monounsaturated fats. It has a higher oxidation threshold than most monounsaturated oils and remains stable at higher temperatures, so is more resistant to hydrogenation and the formation of trans fats. Monounsaturated fats help to lower total cholesterol levels.

    Thursday

    Eat more garlic. Studies show that, as part of a low-fat diet, it can help reduce cholesterol levels - lowering levels of "bad" LDL cholesterol and raising "good" HDL cholesterol. It also helps to thin the blood, which helps reduce the risk of heart attacks. Studies show countries that eat more garlic have lower rates of heart disease.

    Friday

    Eat more legumes. Legumes such as chickpeas, lentils, beans and peas are good for people with high cholesterol levels. They are low in fat and rich in nutrients such as B vitamins, iron and unsaturated fats. They are also a rich source of soluble fibre, which helps to lower cholesterol levels.

    Saturday

    Eat oatmeal for breakfast. Whole oats are packed with heart-healthy dietary fiber and nutrients such as B vitamins, vitamin E and iron. Oats are an excellent source of soluble fiber, which lowers cholesterol and reduces the risk of heart disease. Choose fiber-rich whole oats over quick oats.

    Sunday

    Snack on nuts. They are rich in unsaturated fats. Choose nuts that are higher in unsaturated (mono and poly) fats and lower in saturated fats. These include almonds, walnuts, pecans, hazelnuts and pistachios. Try making up a trail mix with your favorite raw, unsalted nuts, dried fruit and a mix of seeds.

    15 SPECTACULAR TRICKS FOR YOUR BODY !!!
    1.) If you've got an itch in your throat, scratch your ear. When the
    nerves in the ear get stimulated, they create a reflex in the throat
    that causes a muscle spasm, which cures the itch.

    2.) Having trouble hearing someone at a party or on the phone?
    Use your right ear it's better at picking up rapid speech. But, the left is better at picking up music tones.

    3.) If you need to relieve yourself BADLY, but you're not anywhere
    near a bathroom, fantasize about RELATIONS. That preoccupies your brain and distracts it.

    4.) Next time the doctor's going to give you an injection, COUGH as
    the needle is going in. The cough raises the level of pressure in your
    spinal canal, which limits the pain sensation as it tries to travel to
    your brain.

    5.) Clear a stuffed nose or relieve sinus pressure by pushing your
    tongue against the roof of your mouth then pressing a finger between
    your eyebrows. Repeat that for 20 seconds it causes the vomer bone
    to rock, which loosens your congestion and clears you up.

    6.) If you ate a big meal and you're feeling full as you go to sleep,
    lay on your left side. That'll keep you from suffering from acid reflux it keeps your stomach lower than your esophagus, which will helps
    keep stomach acid from sliding up your throat.

    7.) You can stop a toothache by rubbing ice on the back of your
    hand, on the webbed area between your thumb and index finger.
    The nerve pathways there stimulate a part of the brain that blocks
    pain signals from your mouth.

    8.) If you get all messed up on liquor, and the room starts spinning, put your hand on something stable. The reason: Alcohol dilutes the blood in the part of your ear called the cupula, which regulates balance. Putting your hand on something stable gives your brain another reference point, which will help make the world stop spinning.

    9.) Stop a nose bleed by putting some cotton on your upper gums right behind the small dent below your nose and press against it hard. Most of the bleeding comes from the cartilage wall that divides the nose, so pressing there helps get it to stop.

    10.) Nervous? Slow your heart rate down by blowing on your thumb. The vagus nerve controls your heart rate, and you can calm it down by breathing.

    11.) Need to breathe underwater for a while? Instead of taking a huge breath, HYPERVENTILATE before you go under, by taking a bunch of short breaths. That'll trick your brain into thinking it has more oxygen, and buy you about 10 extra seconds.

    12.) You can prevent BRAIN FREEZE by pressing your tongue flat against the roof of your mouth, covering as much surface area as possible. Brain freeze happens because the nerves in the roof of your mouth get extremely cold, so your brain thinks your whole body is cold. It compensates by overheating which causes your head to hurt. By warming up the roof of your mouth, you'll chill your brain and feel better.

    13.) If your hand falls asleep, rock your head from side to side. That'll wake your hand or arm up in less than a minute. Your hand falls asleep because of the nerves in your neck compressing so loosening your neck is the cure. If your foot falls asleep, that's governed by nerves lower in the body, so you need to stand up and walk around.

    14.) Finally, this one's totally USELESS, but a nice trick. Have someone stick their arm out to the side, straight, palm down. Press down on his wrist with two fingers. He'll resist, and his arm will stay horizontal. Then, have him put his foot on a surface that's half an inch off the ground, like a stack of magazines, and do the trick again. Because his spine position is thrown off, his arm will fall right to his side, no matter how much he tries to resist.

    15.) Got the hiccups? Press thumb and second finger over your
    eyebrows until the hiccups are over - usually, in a short while.

    This drink with garlic, is tasty, less hot, less smelly and very effective in fighting cold,sore throats, infections and RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS . Is your picky eater prone to frequent cold ? This is the right drink to enhance his/her immune system. Kids love it ! Garlic is still hailed as the best medicine for a variety of diseases. Its fighting mechanism in our body against illness is a very remarkable process. It helps in curing a wide range of symptoms ranging from infections to cancer. Garlic milk is helpful to reduce inflammation, stiffness and pain of the joints caused by Rheumatoid arthritis and Osteoarthritis.

    Ingredients:
    1.A cup of milk.
    2.Garlic cloves - 3.
    3.Sugar to taste.
    4.Turmeric powder - 1/4 Tsp.
    5.Honey (optional) - a Tsp.
    6.Black pepper powder(optional) - a pinch.

    How To Make
    1. Crush the garlic cloves a little with the sides of a knife or a garlic crusher. ( Note: Do not crush them hard. We want them in whole. We are crushing a little just to open the pods for the juices to flow out.)
    2. Boil the milk with these crushed garlics in it.
    3. Add the turmeric powder.
    4. Let the milk,garlic and turmeric boil thoroughly till the garlic is soft when pressed. Keep stirring the milk so that it doesn't get sticky at the bottom. A tip here is, you can add a spoon of sugar and dissolve it in milk before it goes on heat. This will help in avoiding the milk sticking to the vessel.
    5.Bring the milk to a warm state and add sugar to taste.
    6. Drink the milk and make sure you eat those cooked garlic cloves.

    If you like the taste of honey, you may try substituting sugar with honey. Make sure you add honey only when the milk has cooled down to warm state. Honey with hot milk kills the benefits of both. As much as honey soothes a sore throat,

    Black pepper with its own unique medicinal quality adds only to the benefit of your body.

    Turmeric powder is a medicine by itself. Like honey it soothes any sores in the body including that of the internal organs. It is antibacterial too.

    Having said all this, I need not stress more on trying this drink for it is a culmination of all good things your body longs for when it is sick.
    Enjoy the drink every night before going to bed for a peacful sleep !

    Garlic milk : A medicinal drink.

    Posted at  11:30 AM  |  in  health tips  |  Read More»

    This drink with garlic, is tasty, less hot, less smelly and very effective in fighting cold,sore throats, infections and RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS . Is your picky eater prone to frequent cold ? This is the right drink to enhance his/her immune system. Kids love it ! Garlic is still hailed as the best medicine for a variety of diseases. Its fighting mechanism in our body against illness is a very remarkable process. It helps in curing a wide range of symptoms ranging from infections to cancer. Garlic milk is helpful to reduce inflammation, stiffness and pain of the joints caused by Rheumatoid arthritis and Osteoarthritis.

    Ingredients:
    1.A cup of milk.
    2.Garlic cloves - 3.
    3.Sugar to taste.
    4.Turmeric powder - 1/4 Tsp.
    5.Honey (optional) - a Tsp.
    6.Black pepper powder(optional) - a pinch.

    How To Make
    1. Crush the garlic cloves a little with the sides of a knife or a garlic crusher. ( Note: Do not crush them hard. We want them in whole. We are crushing a little just to open the pods for the juices to flow out.)
    2. Boil the milk with these crushed garlics in it.
    3. Add the turmeric powder.
    4. Let the milk,garlic and turmeric boil thoroughly till the garlic is soft when pressed. Keep stirring the milk so that it doesn't get sticky at the bottom. A tip here is, you can add a spoon of sugar and dissolve it in milk before it goes on heat. This will help in avoiding the milk sticking to the vessel.
    5.Bring the milk to a warm state and add sugar to taste.
    6. Drink the milk and make sure you eat those cooked garlic cloves.

    If you like the taste of honey, you may try substituting sugar with honey. Make sure you add honey only when the milk has cooled down to warm state. Honey with hot milk kills the benefits of both. As much as honey soothes a sore throat,

    Black pepper with its own unique medicinal quality adds only to the benefit of your body.

    Turmeric powder is a medicine by itself. Like honey it soothes any sores in the body including that of the internal organs. It is antibacterial too.

    Having said all this, I need not stress more on trying this drink for it is a culmination of all good things your body longs for when it is sick.

    Beware Maggi Lovers : Cooking Maggi Noodles in wrong way is very dangerous for health.
    Beware Maggi Lovers : Cooking Maggi Noodles in wrong way is very dangerous for health.

    Many of us can't live without " Maggi " especially when one is away from home, in a foreign land. Here is a piece of information to share so that we can remove the potential health hazard of consuming Maggi. Maybe you should print this e-mail to keep as a reminder, pin it up in the kitchen or dining room as reminder or in your purse if you are always traveling.
    Do Not Ignore This ... Especially those fond of Maggi...

    Correct Way Of Cooking Noodles
    The correct way to cook instant noodles without harming our bodies and health:
    Normally, how we cook the instant noodles is to put the noodles into a pot with water, throw in the powder and let it cook for around 3 minutes and then it's ready to eat. This is the WRONG way and dangerous method of cooking the instant noodles like Maggi. By doing this, when we actually boil the ingredients in the powder,normally with MSG, it will change the molecular structure of the MSG, causing it to be toxic. The other thing that you may or may not realize is that, the noodles are coated with wax and it will take around 4 to 5 days for the body to excrete the wax after you have eaten the noodles.

    CORRECT METHOD:

    1. Boil the noodles in a pot of water.
    2. Once the noodles are cooked, take out the noodles, and throw away the water which contains wax.
    3. Boil another pot of water, add the cooked noodles into the hot boiling water and then turn off the stove.
    4. Only at this stage when the stove is off, and while the water is very hot, add the flavouring powder into the water, to make noodle soup.
    5. However, if you need dry noodles, remove the noodles and add the flavoring powder and toss it to get dry noodles.

    Note that packaged noodles are not healthy when consumed regularly in large amounts. Instead, cooking plain noodles and eating them with a well balanced sauce is the best way to provide carbohydrates and other important nutrients to our body.

    Heart attack warning signs.
    How can your jaw (and other parts of your body)* tell you if you have just experienced a heart attack?

    *note: symptoms of a heart attack generally appear/occur on the left side of your body.

    If you experience a dull, vague pain on the lower left side of your jaw which increases and decreases over the course of a few minutes, and moves around, this is known as “referred pain”. This pain is associated with a heart attack.

    This sensation occurs when the nerves surrounding the heart become agitated, sending pain through the nerves in the spine to other locations in the body, specifically the left jaw, shoulder and arm.**

    If your jaw pain happens in the morning, this serves as a warning sign that you’re at risk for a heart attack. Your blood is thicker at this time of the day, which causes blood pressure to surge, increasing heart attack risk.

    Pain brought on by physical activity can manifest in several areas including the chest, jaw, left arm and shoulder, a scenario that typically indicates you’re having a heart attack.

    Shortness of breath, a common heart attack symptom in women, may also occur. You may also get additional classic heart attack signs such as dizziness or nausea. In this case, see a doctor immediately.

    A Valuable Information


      Varun, an IT professional working in Technopark, was finding himself with an upset stomach every night. While normal medical checks revealed nothing wrong in him, deeper probes revealed the reason – his stomach was collecting significant amounts of wax. And doctors identified the villian – the ordinary disposable paper cups he used for drinking his tea at his office pantry.
    Disposable paper cups have become quite popular in office pantries due to the convenience it offers. What many overlook is the fact that these paper cups are coated with a tiny layer of wax, which is essential to prevent water from seeping into the paper. When very hot liquids are pour over this cup, the paper cups wax may disintegrate and a little may come off, which will promptly be sent along with the drink into our stomachs! While our body can discard minor amounts, over the long-term, it does become a problem.

    So what can be done about it? You can try to bring your own glass cups. Glass is one of the least reactive materials in the world (remember acids are stored in glass vessels, blood samples are collected in glass plates – these are for a good reason). But glass does have the problem of breaking easily, so it requires good care. Ceramic cups are probably the best bet. Of course, you can also use your ordinary stainless steel glass, but never use plastic ones – they are harmful, and its dangers are even worse than wax !

    Banana for Breakfast anyone


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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

    HEALTH BENEFITS OF CHOCOLATE
    Mentioned below are few known health benefits of eating chocolate in moderation:

    1. May Reduce the Risk of Heart Attack
    As suggested by the study, moderate consumption of chocolate may reduce the risk of heart attack. Scientific research found that blood platelets clotted more slowly in people who consume chocolate than in those who did not. It is this clotting of blood vessels that blocks them and then leads to a heart attack. Several studies suggested that cocoa and chocolate may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease by:
    Lowering blood pressure
    Decreasing LDL oxidation
    Anti-inflammation action
    2. May Decrease Blood Pressure and Increase Insulin Sensitivity
    A research in Italy suggested that consumption of dark chocolate significantly lowered the insulin resistance, and also reduced the Systolic blood pressure, the first number in a blood pressure reading.
    3. May Improve Arterial Blood Flow
    Research found that healthy men who consumed the flavanol-rich cocoa improved the ability of their blood vessels to relax and improve the blood flow through their arteries. This is important for cardiovascular health.
    4. May Help People with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
    A small study in England suggested that consumption of 1 1/2 ounces of 85% cocoa dark chocolate every day for eight weeks reduced the fatigue feeling in people suffering with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. And surprisingly, no weight gain was reported in the study.
    The researchers think that chocolate enhances the action of neurotransmitters, like serotonin, which in turn helps regulating the mood and sleep. More research is needed on this though.

    While it is important to keep the consumption of chocolate moderate, it is also important to choose healthy ones, because chocolate is high in calories, and so eating too much of it can make you fat and increase the risk of heart disease, let alone other health effects.
    According to WebMD, the more nonfat cocoa solids a chocolate has, the more antioxidants it is likely to have, and the highest levels of flavonoids (antioxidants) are in natural cocoa powder. Unsweetened baking chocolate, Dark chocolate and semisweet chocolate chips, milk chocolate and chocolate syrup contains lesser antioxidants in the same order.
    So the bottom line is that eating a bar of healthy chocolate once in a while (like 3 times a month as suggested by the study) promotes good health, happiness and sleep, which in long term can improve the lifespan of a person.

    A small study in England suggested that consumption of 1 1/2 ounces of 85% cocoa dark chocolate every day for eight weeks reduced the fatigue feeling in people suffering with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. And surprisingly, no weight gain was reported in the study.
    The researchers think that chocolate enhances the action of neurotransmitters, like serotonin, which in turn helps regulating the mood and sleep. More research is needed on this though.

    While it is important to keep the consumption of chocolate moderate, it is also important to choose healthy ones, because chocolate is high in calories, and so eating too much of it can make you fat and increase the risk of heart disease, let alone other health effects.
    According to WebMD, the more nonfat cocoa solids a chocolate has, the more antioxidants it is likely to have, and the highest levels of flavonoids (antioxidants) are in natural cocoa powder. Unsweetened baking chocolate, Dark chocolate and semisweet chocolate chips, milk chocolate and chocolate syrup contains lesser antioxidants in the same order.
    So the bottom line is that eating a bar of healthy chocolate once in a while (like 3 times a month as suggested by the study) promotes good health, happiness and sleep, which in long term can improve the lifespan of a person.
