How To Heal Yourself Naturally Seminar 2015

2015-01-26T16:33:00.000-08:00

Have You Noticed How So Many People Are Getting Sick?

It’s frightening. Heart disease. Diabetes. Hypertension. Ulcers. Arthritis.

Goodness, even Cancer is getting very common.

And what makes it more frightening? Some medicines don’t seem to help. Sometimes, they make people worse.

Friend, I’d like to help.

On February 28, I will be giving my powerful seminar entitled, How To Heal Yourself Naturally.

I talked to a woman who told me a beautiful story. She said she had a severe ear problem since she was a child. A few months ago, the doctor wanted to perform surgery. But because she applied “ridiculously” simple and natural healing habits that she learned from me and my health mentors, the ear problem has vanished and the operation has been cancelled.

For more information on my February 28 Seminar, click here.

May your dreams come true,

Bo Sanchez

How To Heal Yourself Naturally Seminar

2014-08-28T17:47:00.001-07:00

Everyday, I feel people’s pain.

I’m a preacher. I go around the world, meeting the spiritual needs of people. But people aren’t just sick in their souls. People are sick in their bodies too.

And like a flood of pain, people tell me…

“Bo, I’ve got breast cancer…”
“I’m taking dialysis, please pray for my damaged kidneys…”
“I have arthritis and the pain is unbearable, I can’t sleep…”
“I’m injecting insulin twice a day…”
“Two of my arteries are blocked; I’m scheduled for an angioplasty next week…”
“Can you pray for me, Brother Bo? I’ve got liver cancer…”

But that’s not all…

Are You A Walking Time Bomb?

Do you know what pains me more?

I know that a lot of people appear healthy on the outside but are like “walking time bombs” on the inside. They appear “okay” as though everything is normal, but actually, cancer cells are already multiplying rapidly in their bodies. Or their bones are wasting away with osteoporosis. (And milk can make you worse, not better.) Or their blood vessels are almost blocked up. Or their colon is now covered with toxic gunk.

When someone says, “My doctor discovered a cancerous tumor in my body…” that person thinks that the cancer just “popped out” on that day or that week or that month. Actually, it has been building up for MANY YEARS. Because that person—for decades—has been living a Cancer-Producing Lifestyle.

This doesn’t have to happen to you. You can learn to live a Health-Producing Lifestyle instead.

You can live a healthy life, strong and vibrant, able to live until your old age. But you have to know where disease comes from…

What Is The Root Cause Of 90% Of All Diseases?

Here’s something that bothers me so much: People are very IGNORANT about how they THEMSELVES are creating their own cancer, or arthritis, or heart disease, or allergies…

According to research, as much as 85% of our diseases today are LIFESTYLE diseases. What does that mean?

We can cure them naturally.

Read carefully. I believe that the root cause of 90% of all our diseases is the massive amounts of toxins in your body right now. I believe that there’s a gigantic mountain of physical, emotional, and spiritual junk in our systems—and sadly, it’s still growing bigger and bigger everyday. Our bodies have become one heaping Garbage Dump. (If you’re Filipino, imagine pictures of Payatas or the former Smokey Mountain. That’s your body.)

Here’s the good news: YOU can stop the ticking time bomb in your body. You can reverse the progress of the diseases by using the natural power of your body to heal itself.

How?

Stop Making Your Body A Garbage Dump!

Step One: Reject all incoming garbage. I can teach you how to do this. I’ll share with you “8 Simple Shifts” that will turn the direction of your body around. Instead of walking towards terminal disease, your body makes an about face, and starts walking towards vibrant health.

Step Two: Cleanse your inner body from decades-long garbage that has accumulated EVERYDAY. Listen to my logic. Do you take a shower everyday? If you bath your outer body daily, you should also bath your inner body daily as well. I can teach you how to do this too. If you do this cleansing habit that I will teach you, it will change the direction of your health.

But alas, people don’t know about this natural, God-given power inside their bodies.

So what do they do?

Many Expensive Drugs And Medical Treatments

Have Side Effects

Because people don’t know how to heal themselves naturally, they turn to expensive drugs and expensive medical treatments to heal themselves. But not only do most of these drugs and treatments have side effects, they don’t address the real cause of their disease.

Do you know that many of the popular pills that we take, such as for pain-relief or for headaches or for fever, affect our liver—the only organ in our body that’s able to clean up our blood from toxic build-up—the very cause of our diseases? What you thought heals actually worsens your condition over time.

Most expensive drugs and medical treatments are short-term solutions. They’re band aids. They don’t heal you. But they’re “marketed” as such. So they lull you into thinking your problem is solved, when actually, it was just covered up.

So what if you get a heart-bypass that costs half a million pesos? If you don’t heal the root cause of why your had that blockage in your blood vessels in the first place, you’ll need another bypass very soon.

So what if you get 6 sessions of painful chemotherapy? If you don’t heal the root cause of why you had cancer, cancer will return with vengeance, and very soon, you’ll need a stronger dose of chemo again. In an informal survey among Oncologists (Doctors specializing in cancer), they were asked, “If you had cancer, would you go through chemotherapy?” Shockingly, 91% of them said NO.

But 75% of cancer patients go through chemotherapy today.

Do you see a conflict here?

Allow Your Body To Heal To Itself

People think cancer IS the tumor. Nope. The tumor is like the tip of the iceberg. Cutting the tumor away via surgery doesn’t mean the cancer is gone. If you want to remove the cancer, you have to go deeper. But it’s so deep, there is no scalpel on planet earth that can reach it. What can reach it? What can truly cut it away? Only your own body’s healing power can reach to that depth.

My daily frustration? I know there are so many people who are getting sick USELESSLY. They could have avoided so much pain, disease, and early death, if they just healed themselves naturally.

I believe in NATURAL healing. You can heal yourself without (or with minimal) use of drugs and modern medical treatments. You can be healed by using powerful emotional, spiritual, and nutritional healing processes.

Invest In Your Health, Not In Your Disease

Over your entire lifetime, how much have you spent for your medicines and medical treatment?

Thousands? Millions?

Invest in your health instead. Learn how to heal yourself naturally. Most important, learn how to prevent disease by building a “force field of health” around you.

Dr. Gerry’s Coco Nectar: Benefits and Applications

2014-06-25T19:46:00.000-07:00

CCN is an Amino Acid “Bomb”

It delivers a concentrated and complete supply of all the 20 Amino Acids needed by the Immune System to:

FIGHT DISEASES - Relentlessly bombard and neutralize intruders/invaders(virus, bacteria,etc.) – something the anti-biotics in overdose, can never do without damaging the body. CCN is very safe food and can/should be taken in megadoses for serious and life-threatening ailments.

REPAIR DAMAGED TISSUES - Supply raw materials for the immediate repair, rehabilitation and rejuvenation of damaged tissues and organs. CCN needs no digestion so it is assimilated in less than 2 minutes from ingestion, delivering the necessary repair substances to the affected tissues.

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

Prostate/Myoma/Diabetes

CCN enhances, and in the case of older people, reawaken the vitality of the reproductive organs in as much as Amino Acids comprise all reproductive fluids. It is a natural and much safer alternative to the so-called “colored pills” taken by seniors; no side effects, no overdose, no anxiety. In the words of those who have tried it, “you can be cock-sure with Coco Nectar”. Maintaining some regularity in sexual activities will help prevent Prostate Cancer and Myoma.
Start with 2-3 tbsp of PureCCN in the morning before breakfast on an EMPTY STOMACH or 5 mins before meals. You could vary the intake by taking it as Coco Nectar Juice, mixing CCN with water. When positive results are experienced, the dosage can be taken again before sleeping. The Body undertakes undisturbed repairs while asleep.
CCN delivers Repair Materials to the afflicted organs. Since it is a powerful anti-bacterial, anti-viral and anti-inflammatory, it fights the infection and swelling, if there is any.
In the case of Diabetics, CCN delivers not only repair materials for the damaged Pancreas, CCN likewise delivers all the necessary amino acid ingredients (17 in all) for the manufacture of Insulin. Regular exercise will go a long way in converting more sugar to energy, thereby containing, if not preventing, Diabetes. We now have two cases of Insulin-dependents who stopped injecting themselves with pharmaceutical Insulin after taking a daily dose of CCN.
One of them, a Shipping Executive in Makati, hasn’t used the needle since 2010 after he switched to CCN. He consumes about 2 kilos every 3 months.
Do not be concerned with the sweetness of the CCN.
First off, it has a low Glycemic Index (35); secondly, the sweetness comes naturally from Fructose and Glucose(a very important food for the brain together with oxygen), and not from Sucrose (cane sugar). Both fructose and glucose in CCN comprise the “fuel” with which the Human Body manufactures tissues, while the Amino Acids are the “raw materials”.

Stroke, Heart Diseases, Atherosclerosis

CCN is the BEST and SAFEST food for Heart patients and Stroke Victims.
Digestion is very stressful to the heart. CCN does not require digestion. It delivers all the necessary “repair” materials to the body without taxing the heart to power the process.
A megadose of CCN (like 150-300gms/day) on an EMPTY STOMACH has restored the body of some stroke victims in 30-60 days.
CCN enhances blood circulation and lowers blood pressure. It is therefore an advisable Food Supplement for Heart patients.
It has been shown that a combination of the Amino Acids Proline and Lysine and megadoses of non-acidic Vitamin C, reverses Atherosclerosis, a direct cause of high blood pressure and heart attacks. Proline and Lysine are already present in CCN, among the 20 Amino Acids.

Dengue Fever

CCN is a very effective Dengue Fighter. It has not failed to lick Dengue since it was first tested in 2004.
It has raised Platelet counts from as low as 6,000, to over 100,000 in 24 hours or less.
Strictly Dengue patients in hospitals invariably get discharged within 24-48 hours from taking CCN. The dosage is easy to remember. The cure is very cheap. One only needs 1-2 small bottles.
For Adults: Take half a bottle (150gms) immediately on an EMPTY STOMACH. If it is taken in the morning, follow it up with the other half before sleeping. If the first dose is taken in the afternoon or evening, take the other half in the morning BEFORE breakfast. Then have a 2nd bottle in reserve, for insurance.
For 6-13 years: take ¼ bottle (75gms), and follow it up with a similar dose every 6-8 hrs until the bottle is done or until the platelets surpass the 100,000 count.
Tots and Infants: Reduce the dosage proportionate to the body weight.
You may use droppers for infants; or mix CCN with water and bottle-feed.
There is NO OVERDOSE for CCN, so the dosages do not have to be exact.

Skin Breaks & Diseases / External Afflictions / Herpes

CCN can be applied topically on all external afflictions, such as wounds, ulcers, rashes, allergies, infections, boils, hemmorhoids. Of late, a Herpes Simplex patient reported healing after only a couple of days ingesting as well as topically applying CCN on the affected spots.
You may dab pure CCN on the affected area or dilute it with water to reduce viscosity as in the case of rashes and psoriasis.

Hair Fertilizer

Hair is made from Amino Acids.
CCN is a potent “hair fertilizer”, minimizing hairfall, as it strengthens and thickens hair.
Take a spoonful of CCN in a bowl and dilute with water. Then massage the solution into the scalp for 3-5 minutes. It is best to do this before taking a bath.
Check your bathroom drain for falling hair after a couple of days. It should be much less.
Check your scalp after 2-3 days you might detect baby hair growth. Hair definitely looks strong and thick.

Throat and Mouth Infections

CCN combats tooth decay and in most instances, relieves toothache. It also neutralizes mouth sores, as well as infected and bleeding gums on contact. Some dentists have been using CCN soaked in cotton to gum wounds right after extraction. It stops bleeding almost immediately, facilitates blood clot and tissue repair, allowing extractee to eat after 24 hours. It is the fastest healer for newly-extracted gum wounds.
Just take a mouthful and guide the CCN to the affected spots.
For tonsillitis and throat infections, swallow slowly with head tilted towards the back so the CCN hits the infected area as you swallow. It also eliminates halitosis as you swallow. There is no bad breath with CCN.

Sore Eyes and Floaters

2 drops of CCN, mixed with water, in an empty vial of “EyeMo” or “Visine” should do the job of fighting eye infection, as well as repairing torn retinal tissues(experienced as “floaters” by older people) caused by high blood pressure. 1-2 drops of the solution 1- 2x a day ought to contain the discomfort, if not totally heal the infection and repair eye damage in a couple of hours. It stings upon application but it lasts only for a few seconds. REFRIGERATE the solution.

Ulcer / Hyperacidity / GERD

CCN has proven to be a very fast worker in relieving pains and discomfort brought about by less serious cases of Hyperacidity and Gastro-Esophageal Reflux Disease(GERD) common among older people. In case of Ulcers in the stomach sphincter, stomach and intestines, CCN provides immediate relief upon contact. Hence, in these cases, it must always be taken in megadoses and on an Empty Stomach. The delivery of the repair materials must not be diluted and delayed by food still undergoing digestion in the stomach.

Sweetener

CCN is the safest natural sweetener in the world. So (if you can afford it), you can use it to sweeten anything; and use it as substitute for any recipe that uses “sugar”.

CCN as Coco Water

With CCN, no need for procuring Coco Water. Mixing CCN with water, sweetened to taste, is nutritionally and energetically many notches better than any other natural coconut water from either young or old coconut. Creating various kinds of Coco Nectar Juices could be experienced by simply adding any fresh fruit or vegetable juice for variety. Adding Braggs Apple Cider to CCN on a 1-0n-1 basis brings a delectable thirst-quenching quality to the juice. Best taken when chilled.

Leukemia / Carcinoma (Colon, Breast) / Blood Diseases

CCN Users have reported relieved symptoms of leukemia, anemia, colon, cervical and breast cancer and blood abnormalities. A simple blood analysis can validate the effects of CCN on the health of the blood and plasma. CCN has been proven as best natural food fighter against blood-related diseases.

Necessary SUPPLEMENTS to go with CCN

1) Megadoses of Non-acidic Vitamin C. Necessary ingredient (together with Amino Acids) for the construction of Collagen for Tissue repairs.
2) Lots of native Bananas – the LATUNDAN Variety. This is the best, surest and fastest natural food medicine for digestive problems (IBS,etc). When the digestive process is efficient, elimination is also efficient resulting in the healthiest-looking stool to prove it. Take 1-2 Latundan after every meal, at least.
3)Vitamin B-Complex.
4.) Psyllium Fiber
With CCN, Banana, Vitamins C and B-complex, you may not need to eat heavy meals.
You’ve supplied the body with what it naturally needs to keep itself healthy.
And they are all digestion-friendly.

Pomelo Benefits:

The benefits of pomelo fruit are listed below.

1. Prevents Urinary Tract Infection:

Urinary Tract infection is a bacterial infection that affects the urinary system that creates stores and removes urine. Increased consumption of pomelo juice helps to fight this particular frequent swelling in pregnant women. The Vitamin C present in pomelo increases the acid level in urine and shirks the development of bacteria in the urinary tract.

2. Promotes healing:

Wound recovery practise suggests recovering strength of wounded tissue by replacing the dead tissue with a healthy tissue. Enzyme in Vitamin C helps in the development of Collagen, a protein that fortifies skin making it skin flexible and initiating wound recovery.

3. Healthy gums:

Bleeding and loose gums might be a symbol of Vitamin C deficiency. Collagen development is not just essential for skin, but also essential for creating healthy and balanced gums and teeth. Pomelo helps to make the gums stronger and keeps teeth problems at bay.

4. Heart health:

Pomelo has a high content of potassium, which like Vitamin C plays an important role in supporting the heart. This essential mineral regulates blood pressure levels. Abundant in pectin, pomelo juice clears the arterial deposits accumulated in the body, thereby reducing the impurities and benefiting people with hypertension. Pomelo also reduces the cholesterol count in the body and promotes good cholesterol.

5. Prevents anaemia:

Research has shown that Vitamin C enhances the absorption of iron in body. Iron deficiency often leads to anaemia i.e. shortage of blood in body. Having a diet rich in Vitamin C helps to combat iron loss and improves blood circulation.

6. Wards off cold and flu:

Eating fresh pomelo fruit or drinking pomelo juice, can help prevent toxins and free radical cells from building up in the body. Too many free radicals in the body can cause health conditions like cold, flu, asthma, bacterial infection, allergies and so on. Vitamin C is one of the nutrients which stimulates the action of antibodies and immune cells which guard the body against bacteria that cause cold and flu.

7. Fights cancer:

The skin of pomelo is very rich in bioflavonoids which fights cancer and helps to reduce pancreatic, intestinal and breast cancer. It also stops cancer from spreading by enabling the body to eliminate excess oestrogen. Fiber, present in pomelo protects from colon cancer.

8. Fights Anti ageing:

Pomelo, like grapefruits contain spermadine which protect the cell from processes related to ageing and cell damage. It combats wrinkles and skin ageing and makes the skin appear youthful, fair and soft. It not only removes free radicals that harm the skin, but also assists the body to boost the production of collagen.

9. Weight loss:

Fiber is extremely significant for weight loss. Foods high in fiber stays in the stomach for a longer time and reduces regular hunger pangs. They also need more chewing time giving the body longer time to feel satisfied and reducing the risk of too much eating. This fruit also has properties which help to burn the fat reducing the starch and sugar content in the body.

10. Prevents osteoporosis:

Uncontrolled osteoporosis can affect posture, bodily movements as well as flexibility. Treatment for brittle bones calls for a diet rich in calcium and minerals to encourage new bone development. The pulp of pomelo boosts bone health and decreases the potential risk of building brittle bones.

11. Aids digestion:

The high Vitamin C content in pomelo retains the elasticity of arteries and improves the digestive system. Although the food has high ascorbic acid content, it produces an alkaline reaction once digested. Pomelo is filled with dietary fiber which assists in preserving normal bowel motions and avoids haemorrhoids.

Fit in Five with The Fat Kid Inside: Erwan Heussaff Helps You Stick To Your Health Goals This 2014

by Beatriz Acosta

It is now 2014. Most likely you (just like myself) rang in the new year with a celebration filled with family and friends, and the requisite holiday binge of food and drink. 'Twas the season to be chubby, as friends would often say last month. Now that we're all back to regular programming, easing into the normality of regular weekdays and weekends might prove a great chore--even more if you've crossed your heart and pinky promised that this year is the year that you will finally stick to your resolutions.

We all need some sort of support system when switching to a healthier lifestyle, especially when we feel we're starting from ground zero, with no idea how to jumpstart our health and fitness journey. Why not let Erwan Heussaff help you achieve your health goals this year? 'I strongly feel that with every passing year people are becoming increasingly unhealthy and will eventually develop some health problems if they stick with their current lifestyles,' he shares.

Even the busiest of people can learn from The Fat Kid Inside blogger, triathlete, and Filipino-French restaurateur, because all you'll need is just five minutes to check out this animated video below. And for those wanting to lose weight, Erwan shares that weight loss is achievable and not as hard as they may think--he was able to do it himself, remember? So spare five minutes to watch the video, and as a bonus, read further as he shares with ClickTheCity five extra tips on health and fitness.

Erwan's Five Tips to Keep Healthy and Fit:
1. There's Always Time For Tabata
Leave it to the Japanese to introduce a high-intensity interval training that's simple and efficient--all it takes is several minutes. "Tabata work outs are the best for people who are time hungry," Erwan shares. First, choose four exercises (body weight push-ups, squats, burpees, box-jumps, for example). Then do each exercise to failure for 20 seconds, rest 10 seconds; complete all 4 exercises in this manner and repeat 8 times. It's a short and intense cardio workout that's bound to leave you breathless (maybe even see stars), but do this regularly and you will experience results in no time.
2. Freeze Some Greens
Peas and broccoli, to be exact, as Erwan reveals that these two are great ingredients to keep frozen. "The freezing process actually increases the nutritional values of this produce," he says.
3. Snack On Nuts
Want to munch on something in between meals? Forget the chocolates and chips--well, save them for cheat day when you feel you already deserve them. "The best snacks to keep handy are almonds, brazil nuts, et cetera," tips Erwan. Keep a small stash handy inside your bag, or leave a small container at your office desk, as healthy nuts are jampacked with nutrients, fiber, minerals, and healthy fats. "All in moderation of course," he adds.
4. Prep Your Protein
Craving for protein? Then make delicious but healthy protein dishes right at home. "Buy some leat meat, mince and flavour them with spices, seasoning and herbs," Erwan suggests, "Make balls out of them and bake them in the oven until cooked, usually 15 to 20 minutes at 190°C." Make a batch enough for the week to save you time, as you can freeze and thaw for the week as needed.
5. When in Doubt, Use Your Hands
...as a guide for food portioning size, that is. If grams and ounces and all those kinds of measurement mess up your math, here is an easier portioning size guide shared by Erwan: your fist size equals to carbs (not the processed kind), your palm size is the protein, and your thumb size is fat.
Repeat: Fist size = (Good) Carbs, Palm size = Protein, Thumb size = Fat.
Here is to a healthier world!

Health Benefits of Papaya

2014-02-05T17:09:00.003-08:00

Source: The World's Healthiest Foods

Deliciously sweet with musky undertones and a soft, butter-like consistency, it is no wonder the papaya was reputably called the "fruit of the angels" by Christopher Columbus. Once considered quite exotic, they can now be found in markets throughout the year. Although there is a slight seasonal peak in early summer and fall, papaya trees produce fruit year round.

Papayas are spherical or pear-shaped fruits that can be as long as 20 inches. The ones commonly found in the market usually average about 7 inches and weigh about one pound. Their flesh is a rich orange color with either yellow or pink hues. Inside the inner cavity of the fruit are black, round seeds encased in a gelatinous-like substance. Papaya's seeds are edible, although their peppery flavor is somewhat bitter. The fruit, as well as the other parts of the papaya tree, contain papain, an enzyme that helps digest proteins. This enzyme is especially concentrated in the fruit when it is unripe. Papain is extracted to make digestive enzyme dietary supplements and is also used as an ingredient in some chewing gums.

This chart graphically details the %DV that a serving of Papaya provides for each of the nutrients of which it is a good, very good, or excellent source according to our Food Rating System. Additional information about the amount of these nutrients provided by Papaya can be found in the Food Rating System Chart. A link that takes you to the In-Depth Nutritional Profile for Papaya, featuring information over 80 nutrients, can be found under the Food Rating System Chart.

Health Benefits

Papayas offer not only the luscious taste and sunlit color of the tropics, but are rich sources of antioxidant nutrients such as carotenes, vitamin C and flavonoids; the B vitamins, folate and pantothenic acid; and the minerals, potassium, copper, and magnesium; and fiber.

Together, these nutrients promote the health of the cardiovascular system and also provide protection against colon cancer. In addition, papaya contains the digestive enzyme, papain, which is used like bromelain, a similar enzyme found in pineapple, to treat sports injuries, other causes of trauma, and allergies.

Protection Against Heart Disease

Papayas may be very helpful for the prevention of atherosclerosis and diabetic heart disease. Papayas are an excellent source of the powerful antioxidants vitamin C and vitamin A (through their concentration of pro-vitamin A carotenoid phytonutrients).

These nutrients help prevent the oxidation of cholesterol. Only when cholesterol becomes oxidized is it able to stick to and build up in blood vessel walls, forming dangerous plaques that can eventually cause heart attacks or strokes. One way in which dietary vitamin E and vitamin C may exert this effect is through their suggested association with a compound called paraoxonase, an enzyme that inhibits LDL cholesterol and HDL cholesterol oxidation.
Papayas are also a good source of fiber, which has been shown to lower high cholesterol levels. The folic acid found in papayas is needed for the conversion of a substance called homocysteine into benign amino acids such as cysteine or methionine. If unconverted, homocysteine can directly damage blood vessel walls and, if levels get too high, is considered a significant risk factor for a heart attack or stroke.

Promotes Digestive Health

The nutrients in papaya have also been shown to be helpful in the prevention of colon cancer. Papaya's fiber is able to bind to cancer-causing toxins in the colon and keep them away from the healthy colon cells. In addition, papaya's folate, vitamin C, beta-carotene, and vitamin E have each been associated with a reduced risk of colon cancer.
These nutrients provide synergistic protection for colon cells from free radical damage to their DNA. Increasing your intake of these nutrients by enjoying papaya is an especially good idea for individuals at risk of colon cancer.

Anti-Inflammatory Effects

Papaya contains several unique protein-digesting enzymes including papain and chymopapain. These enzymes have been shown to help lower inflammation and to improve healing from burns. In addition, the antioxidant nutrients found in papaya, including vitamin C and beta-carotene, are also very good at reducing inflammation. This may explain why people with diseases that are worsened by inflammation, such as asthma, osteoarthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis, find that the severity of their condition is reduced when they get more of these nutrients.

Immune Support

Vitamin C and vitamin A, which is made in the body from the beta-carotene in papaya, are both needed for the proper function of a healthy immune system. Papaya may therefore be a healthy fruit choice for preventing such illnesses as recurrent ear infections, colds and flu.

Protection against Macular Degeneration

Your mother may have told you carrots would keep your eyes bright as a child, but as an adult, it looks like fruit is even more important for keeping your sight. Data reported in a study published in the Archives of Ophthalmology indicates that eating 3 or more servings of fruit per day may lower your risk of age-related macular degeneration (ARMD), the primary cause of vision loss in older adults, by 36%, compared to persons who consume less than 1.5 servings of fruit daily. In this study, which involved over 110,000 women and men, researchers evaluated the effect of study participants' consumption of fruits; vegetables; the antioxidant vitamins A, C, and E; and carotenoids on the development of early ARMD or neovascular ARMD, a more severe form of the illness associated with vision loss. While, surprisingly, intakes of vegetables, antioxidant vitamins and carotenoids were not strongly related to incidence of either form of ARMD, fruit intake was definitely protective against the severe form of this vision-destroying disease. Three servings of fruit may sound like a lot to eat each day, but papaya can help you reach this goal. Add slices of fresh papaya to your morning cereal, lunch time yogurt or green salads. Cut a papaya in half and fill with cottage cheese, crab, shrimp or tuna salad. For an elegant meal, place slices of fresh papaya over any broiled fish.

Protection against Rheumatoid Arthritis

While one study suggests that high doses of supplemental vitamin C makes osteoarthritis, a type of degenerative arthritis that occurs with aging, worse in laboratory animals, another indicates that vitamin C-rich foods, such as papaya, provide humans with protection against inflammatory polyarthritis, a form of rheumatoid arthritis involving two or more joints.
The findings, presented in the Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases were drawn from a study of more than 20,000 subjects and focused on subjects who developed inflammatory polyarthritis and similar subjects who remained arthritis-free during the follow-up period. Subjects who consumed the lowest amounts of vitamin C-rich foods were more than three times more likely to develop arthritis than those who consumed the highest amounts.

Papaya and Green Tea Team Up to Prevent Prostate Cancer

Choosing to regularly eat lycopene-rich fruits, such as papaya, and drink green tea may greatly reduce a man's risk of developing prostate cancer, suggests research published the Asia Pacific Journal of Clinical Nutrition (Jian L, Lee AH, et al.)

In this case-control study involving 130 prostate cancer patients and 274 hospital controls, men drinking the most green tea were found to have an 86% reduced risk of prostate cancer compared, to those drinking the least.

A similar inverse association was found between the men's consumption of lycopene-rich fruits and vegetables such as tomatoes, apricots, pink grapefruit, watermelon, papaya, and guava. Men who most frequently enjoyed these foods were 82% less likely to have prostate cancer compared to those consuming the least lycopene-rich foods.
Regular consumption of both green tea and foods rich in lycopene resulted in a synergistic protective effect, stronger than the protection afforded by either, the researchers also noted.
Practical Tips: Get in the habit of drinking green tea and eating lycopene-rich foods.

Take a quart of iced green tea to work and sip throughout the day or take it to the gym to provide prostate protection while replenishing fluids after your workout.
Pack a ziploc bag of apricots and almonds in your briefcase or gym bag for a handy snack.
Start your breakfast with a half grapefruit or a glass of papaya or guava juice.
Add papaya to any smoothie or fruit salad or use as a delectable garnish for fish.
For a delicious summer lunch, cut a papaya in half, scoop out the seeds, sprinkle with lime juice and top with cottage cheese, a fresh mint leaf, and roasted almonds.
Begin lunch or dinner with some spicy tomato juice on the rocks with a twist of lime. Snack on tomato crostini: in the oven, toast whole wheat bread till crusty, then top with tomato sauce, herbs, a little grated cheese, and reheat until the cheese melts.
Top whole wheat pasta with olive oil, pine nuts, feta cheese and a rich tomato sauce for lunch or dinner.

Description

Papayas are fruits that remind us of the tropics, the regions of the world in which they are grown. Once considered an exotic fruit, papayas' rise in popularity has made them much more available.

Papayas are spherical or pear-shaped fruits that can be as long as 20 inches. The ones commonly found in the market usually average about 7 inches and weigh about one pound. Their flesh is a rich orange color with either yellow or pink hues.
Papaya has a wonderfully soft, butter-like consistency and a deliciously sweet, musky taste. Inside the inner cavity of the fruit are black, round seeds encased in a gelatinous-like substance. Papaya's seeds are edible, although their peppery flavor is somewhat bitter.
The fruit, as well as the other parts of the papaya tree, contain papain, an enzyme that helps digest proteins. This enzyme is especially concentrated in the fruit when it is unripe. Papain is extracted to make digestive enzyme dietary supplements and is also used as an ingredient in some chewing gums.

History

Papayas, native to Central America, have been long revered by the Latin American Indians. Spanish and Portuguese explorers brought papayas to many other subtropical lands to which they journeyed including India, the Philippines, and parts of Africa.
This revered tropical fruit was reputably called "the fruit of the angels" by Christopher Columbus. In the 20th century, papayas were brought to the United States and have been cultivated in Hawaii, the major U.S. producer since the 1920s. Today, the largest commercial producers of papayas include the United States, Mexico and Puerto Rico.

How to Select and Store

If you want to eat them within a day of purchase, choose papayas that have reddish-orange skin and are slightly soft to the touch. Those that have patches of yellow color will take a few more days to ripen.

Papayas that are totally green or overly hard should not be purchased, unless you are planning on cooking them, or unless you want to use green papayas in a cold dish like an Asian salad, as their flesh will not develop its characteristic sweet juicy flavor.
While a few black spots on the surface will not affect the papaya's taste, avoid those that are bruised or overly soft. Papayas are more available during the summer and fall; however, you can usually purchase them throughout the year.

Papayas that are partially yellow should be left at room temperature where they will ripen in a few days. If you want to speed this process, place them in a paper bag with a banana. Ripe papayas should be stored in the refrigerator and consumed within one or two days, so you can enjoy their maximum flavor.

For the most antioxidants, eat papaya fully ripened:
Research conducted at the University of Innsbruck in Austria suggests that as fruits fully ripen, almost to the point of spoilage, their antioxidant levels actually increase.
Key to the process is the change in color that occurs as fruits ripen, a similar process to that seen in the fall when leaves turn from green to red to yellow to brown—a color change caused by the breakdown and disappearance of chlorophyll, which gives leaves and fruits their green color.

Until now, no one really knew what happened to chlorophyll during this process, but lead researcher, Bernard Kräutler, and his team, working together with botanists over the past several years, has identified the first decomposition products in leaves: colorless, polar NCCs (nonfluorescing chlorophyll catabolytes), that contain four pyrrole rings—like chlorophyll and heme.

After examining apples and pears, the scientists discovered that NCCs replace the chlorophyll not only in the leaves of fruit trees, but in their very ripe fruits, especially in the peel and flesh immediately below it.
"When chlorophyll is released from its protein complexes in the decomposition process, it has a phototoxic effect: when irradiated with light, it absorbs energy and can transfer it to other substances. For example, it can transform oxygen into a highly reactive, destructive form," report the researchers. However, NCCs have just the opposite effect. Extremely powerful antioxidants, they play an important protective role for the plant, and when consumed as part of the human diet, NCCs deliver the same potent antioxidant protection within our bodies. .

Tips for Preparing and Cooking

Tips for Preparing Papaya

Papayas can be used many different ways. They can be eaten as is, added to a fruit salad or to a host of different recipes.
One of the easiest (and most delightful) ways to eat papaya is to eat it just like a melon. After washing the fruit, cut it lengthwise, scoop out the seeds and then eat it with a spoon. For a little extra zest, you can squeeze lemon or lime juice on top.
To cut papaya into smaller pieces for fruit salad or recipes, first peel it with a paring knife and then cut into desire size and shape. You can also use a melon baller to scoop out the fruit of a halved papaya. If you are adding it to a fruit salad, you should do so just before serving as it tends to cause the other fruits to become very soft.
While most people discard the big black seeds, they are actually edible and have a delightful peppery flavor. They can be chewed whole or blended into a creamy salad dressing, giving it a peppery flavor.

How to Enjoy

A Few Quick Serving Ideas

Mix diced papaya, cilantro, jalapeno peppers and ginger together to make a unique salsa that goes great with shrimp, scallops and halibut.
Sprinkle papaya with fresh lime juice and enjoy as is.
Slice a small papaya lengthwise and fill with fruit salad.
In a blender, combine papaya, strawberries and yogurt for a cold soup treat.

Individual Concerns

Papayas and Latex Allergy

Like avocados and bananas, papayas contain substances called chitinases that are associated with the latex-fruit allergy syndrome. There is strong evidence of the cross-reaction between latex and these foods. If you have a latex allergy, you may very likely be allergic to these foods as well. Processing the fruit with ethylene gas increases these enzymes; organic produce not treated with gas will have fewer allergy-causing compounds. In addition, cooking the food may deactivate the enzymes.

Nutritional Profile

Papaya is an excellent source of vitamin A (in the form of carotenoids) and vitamin C. It is a very good source of folate. In addition, it is a good source of dietary fiber, magnesium, potassium, copper, and vitamin K.

In-Depth Nutritional Profile

In addition to the nutrients highlighted in our ratings chart, an in-depth nutritional profile for Papaya is also available. This profile includes information on a full array of nutrients, including carbohydrates, sugar, soluble and insoluble fiber, sodium, vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, amino acids and more.

Introduction to Food Rating System Chart

In order to better help you identify foods that feature a high concentration of nutrients for the calories they contain, we created a Food Rating System. This system allows us to highlight the foods that are especially rich in particular nutrients. The following chart shows the nutrients for which this food is either an excellent, very good, or good source (below the chart you will find a table that explains these qualifications). If a nutrient is not listed in the chart, it does not necessarily mean that the food doesn't contain it. It simply means that the nutrient is not provided in a sufficient amount or concentration to meet our rating criteria. (To view this food's in-depth nutritional profile that includes values for dozens of nutrients - not just the ones rated as excellent, very good, or good - please use the link below the chart.) To read this chart accurately, you'll need to glance up in the top left corner where you will find the name of the food and the serving size we used to calculate the food's nutrient composition. This serving size will tell you how much of the food you need to eat to obtain the amount of nutrients found in the chart. Now, returning to the chart itself, you can look next to the nutrient name in order to find the nutrient amount it offers, the percent Daily Value (DV%) that this amount represents, the nutrient density that we calculated for this food and nutrient, and the rating we established in our rating system. For most of our nutrient ratings, we adopted the government standards for food labeling that are found in the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's "Reference Values for Nutrition Labeling."

Empire Boxing Gym in Makati City

2014-02-05T14:57:00.001-08:00

Empire Boxing Gym: Where Fitness Reigns Supreme

by Beatriz Acosta

Before my first boxing session at Empire Boxing Gym in Legazpi Village, Makati, I was able to meet owner and coach Robert del Rosario and learn more about his love for the sport. "In the States, I was a boxer and I was a wrestler. And growing up, I started at age 5 with wresting, with other martial arts." After his studies, Rob took a stab at the corporate world first, and then in business (he is also a contractor). He then strongly felt that he had to go back again to his sporty roots. "I felt the need to go back, so I began competing again. Then I began seeing that a lot of the commercial establishments here [in Manila] lack the personal touch."

Packing a (fake) punch: the author with Empire owner Coach Rob del Rosario

Teaching is a requisite in popular boxing gyms of the metro, yet he observes most of these places do not emphasize on the technical aspect. Rob made his rounds on different gyms to experience himself how a session goes--without introducing himself as a boxer, nor that he fought as a pro. "I noticed that sometimes they just hit the students with the punch mitts, then they leave them, " he shares. He also has new clients signing up at Empire telling him that they've been injured at their former gyms. "Their fractures show that they weren't taught the proper technique. It's essential to get the foundations right. So I decided to put up a gym that would have multiple characteristics, and that will cater to different audiences."

A whole spectrum of clients are welcome to Empire: it's for those who want to fight, who want to fight as a pro, or for those whose goal is weight loss, to gain strength, or to gain skills. "Or maybe just to gain a new hobby," adds Rob. "We even have children's activities, and everything is one-on-one."

Empire Makati, located at OPL Building, C. Palanca corner Dela Rosa Streets

While boxing is the meatiest part of Empire, the gym is not limited to punching bags and boxing gloves. They also have conditioning programs, muay thai, MMA, and FMA, among others. "We make sure that the trainers are fully trained in different ways, I also give them some of my knowledge as a certified trainer, " Rob tells me. Del Rosasio is also certified by American board as a physical trainer, and three of his trainers at Empire are certified as well, and all of them are registered instructors. At Empire, clients are assured of top-notch individualized sessions, as your trainers are official instructors. "We had to invest in procuring licenses from the Games and Amusements Board, that is why we have an accreditation." Another thing Del Rosario invested in is their facilities. "I have an ABAP (Amateur Boxing Association of the Philippines) accredited boxing ring, so our ring is superior compared to other gyms. I made that investment so that our customers can feel the difference. This is about five times the price of a regular ring," he explains. Their ring is based on the ground (not lifted up), fortified by steel, so there is no chance that the canvas will slip over, or the students slipping off the ring. To avoid equipment failure such as bags falling off on people, Empire uses steel mounts that are bolted to the ceiling. Heavy bags are set up in a ring cage (instead of lined up in a row) that is space sufficient--a client can be boxing right beside someone doing muay thai, and they will not be bumping on each other.

Generally, boxing gyms have more affordable rates than the usual fitness center, and Empire offers Annual Membership of P1,200, which includes a couple of free boxing sessions or a single muay thai session. Walk-ins (non members) can hit the gym, it will cost them P100 more per session. Students below 18 years get a discount on membership fees (P800 only) and session rates, while children aged 12 and below will always be charged member's rates (no annual membership fee required). All sessions (boxing, muay thay, mixed martial arts) are one on one, which also includes light conditioning.

Aside from boxing being a fitness regimen that is quite easy on the pocket, what appeals me to the sport is that it goes straightaway to the business of sweating it out. You're not in the gym to look pretty and sport the latest in fitness fashion; I hit the gym and hit the mitts, and work out my punches, challenging both my muscles and energy. Also, a lot of people engage in this combat sport because it is a total workout, targeting core muscles and combining aerobic and anaerobic activity.

My first trip to Empire was not intimidating, as I have personally been frequenting boxing gyms for about a year now, but quit cold turkey when the holiday season rolled around the corner (food, glorious food!). I'm already aware how a typical session will start and end, with warm ups and stretching for appetizer, and for the main course, a series of focus mitts, heavy bags, double end balls and speed balls. To end your session, you get a deadly dessert of ab workouts, then a cool down. A session at Empire typically runs for one hour and a half to an hour and 45 minutes. "Time can be unlimited, you can go on the (heavy) bag for longer, but I don't encourage too much time. An hour and a half to two is okay, and you get good breaks in between," Rob recommends.

New to this sport? Worry not. "We always remember, and we tell to the trainers, that once we were all beginners," Rob shares. "Remember your first day of training? You do not know anything, and we do not expect the student that comes here for the first time to know everything. Be treated as how you would want to be treated on your first day." At Empire, egos are checked in the door, and a humble mentality is observed. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming, and it's great to observe that they strongly uphold a sense of respect to female clients. The gym does not encourage sparring for women, unless requested by the female clients themselves. In this case, there are different types of sparring -- defensive (where client hits and the trainer blocks), or slightly offensive (where the most impact a trainer gives is just as strong as a tap on the shoulder). There are clients that befriend other clients and match up for sparring, while this is not mandatory.

Empire mid-afternoon on a weekday: visit during this period if you want the gym all to yourself

An initial hesitation of mine in joining a new gym is to be unfamiliar with a new trainer's style of training. After months of being used to a routine, will a new gym improve or keep my skills at the same level? "If we find out they come from another gym, we evaluate their positions and techniques. We will do the necessary tweaking," Rob assures me. "We tell them, 'I know you've come from another gym, that you're proficient, but we will see where your angles are.' We will adjust, and we'll make sure that you have the proper technique." Minor technicalities such as a client's posture and footwork (and in my case, the pivot of my right hook), will be corrected until you get it. While I'm no Pacquiao nor do I aspire to fight anybody in real life inside the ring (or outside for that matter!), there is this immense satisfaction when I pack in a strong jab and a powerful uppercut, the mitts receiving a series of punches with a delicious sound pattern (smack-smack-SMACK!), reinforced with your trainer's approval ("Yun! Nice!"). Endorphins fly, sweat pours, and I am hooked.

Weeknight warriors: Empire in full swing after work hours

"This is my passion, that is why we are doing very well," Rob proudly shares. Backed up by a man who truly believes in what they have to offer its clients, and paired with a great atmosphere zinging with endorphins and positive energy, Empire is an excellent destination where boxing, fitness, and fun reign supreme.

Guyabano Tea For Cancer and Other Inflammatory Diseases

2013-08-07T16:17:00.000-07:00

GUYABANO TEA FOR CANCER, DIABETES, ARTHRITIS AND OTHER INFLAMMATORY DISEASES.

- Credit to Ms. Reyes.

By: Cancer Community

My Mom was diagnosed with rare type of brain Cancer. Anaplastic Astrocytoma Grade 3. The doctor said she has only six months to live. Its almost 10 months from the time she was diagnosed but she is still with us and recovering very well.

When Mom was discharged to the hospital, I started giving her vegetable juices plus a glass of guyabano tea three times a day.

HERES HOW TO PREPARE:

You will be needing 40 pcs of guyabano leaves
1 liter clean water

NOTE: USE MATURE BUT NOT TOO OLD LEAVES. AIR DRIED LEAVES ARE BETTER THAN FRESH LEAVES BECAUSE IT CONCENTRATES THE MEDICINAL PROPERTIES OF THE LEAVES MAKING IT MORE EFFECTIVE. DON'T ALSO DO SUN OR OVEN DRY BECAUSE TOO MUCH HEAT WILL COOK THE NUTRITIONAL VALUE OF THE LEAVES, THUS LOSING ITS POTENCY.

PROCEDURE:

1. Boil the 1 liter water in a sauce pan.
2. As soon as it boils, add the leaves and turn the heat to low.
3. Simmer it for 20 minutes. The color will turn to golden brown or just like the color of regular tea.
4. let it cool before drinking.

The tea is only good for 7-8 hours and may be refrigerated.

* GUYABANO TEA MUST BE TAKEN FOR 30 DAYS, 3 TIMES A DAY, ONE GLASS BEFORE MEALS. THE TEA IS EASILY ABSORBED IN AN EMPTY STOMACH.

*It should only be taken for 30 days. More than that, it will destroy the normal flora.

*After 30 days, have yourself checked by your doctor to examine if the disease is still there. If the symptoms is still there, taper the dose to maintenance dose.

* If the symptoms are still there after the 30 days treatment, stop drinking the tea for ten days and repeat thereafter.

* If the symptoms disappear before the 30 day treatment, continue taking the tea to make sure that no single sick cell is present.

30 day treatment, 3x a day, one glass 30 minutes before meals no skipping.

MAINTENANCE DOSE:

ONE GLASS OF TEA A DAY 30 MINUTES BEFORE MEALS FOR 5 DAYS EXCEPT SATURDAY OR SUNDAY. HAVE AT LEAST 2 DAYS REST PERIOD A WEEK.

***Dont mix the tea with other healing substances to avoid incompatibility.

*** Dont overuse the tea. Follow the procedure.

FIGHT CANCER. FIGHT FOR YOUR LIFE.

Healthy Eating at Juju Eats - A New Spin On Salad

2013-07-28T16:12:00.001-07:00

Healthy Eating Made Easy By Juju Eats

by Marian Joy Hernandez

Fast food chains in Makati are everywhere. And so with the opening of Juju Eats, the city welcomes the first full-service salad bar and restaurant with open arms and a sigh of relief. Located along Chino Roces Avenue Extension (formerly Pasong Tamo Extension), the newly opened establishment is fast attracting health buffs, vegetarians, and those who want to take a break from their usual meals oftentimes replete with sodium and grease. Makati is a mecca of dining venues, but a full-service salad bar has been a long time coming, indeed.

Juju Eats

Juju Eats is behind Juju Cleanse, an all-liquid detoxification program that nourishes your body while you give it a break from your usual diet of solids. Fresh juices replace your usual meals, so that your body can flush out the junk it has accumulated over the years. The same mindset of “healthy in and junk out” is applied to Juju Eats, where there are more than 5,000 combinations of salads and over 50 fresh toppings and dressings available everyday.

A new spin on salad

Their salad bar is the cleanest and most colorful I’ve seen, housing an extensive selection of toppings such as mushrooms, cheese and grilled meat, as well as salad bases like Romaine lettuce and pasta. “We’re not strictly vegetarian, but we are into healthy eating,” said David Azanza, president of Feelgood Inc., the company that owns the Juju Cleanse and Juju Eats brands.

The salad bar

So, relax. If you’ve never had salad before, you can ease your way into these ready-made creations. There are two options: get a bowl, which is the traditional way of enjoying salad, or get a wrap, which is a pita sandwich ideal for takeaway.

Inasal Salad

I get a regular bowl of The Inasal Salad (P185/regular), which piqued my curiosity because it’s a new twist to enjoying inasal (Filipino barbecue). It consists of their house mix greens, pork inasal, green mango, feta cheese, cherry tomato, red onion, hardboiled egg, and Bagoong Balayan dressing—which is fermented anchovy sauce native to Batangas.
The varying flavors of salty and sour from the dressing combined with the smoky taste of the inasal work together beautifully.

A regular serving is very filling for one person. It may be good to share this with a companion if you’re planning to sample the other items on the menu. The salad doesn’t abstain from red meat, but it is still truly nutritious.
Another interesting way to enjoy salad, especially when you want to just grab and go, is eating it in a pita wrap. I tried the Ay! Caramba wrap (P135) and was pleasantly surprised that the pita bread isn’t overly thick that it will overwhelm the ingredients of my salad.

Preparing the wrap

The Ay! Caramba consists of the house mix greens, grilled chicken, nacho chips, roasted red pepper, pickled jalapeno, red kidney beans, corn, grated cheddar, salsa, and Ay! Caramba dressing. It’s like eating a healthier burrito sans the rice. The pickled jalapeno makes this combination spicy but tolerable.

Ay! Caramba Wrap

For those who want a more personalized salad, Juju Eats encourages that you do-it-yourself.

DIY Salads at Juju Eats

A look at Juju Eats’ website (www.jujueats.com) will give you the nutrition facts of the stuff they serve, down to the calorie content. They’re big on transparency, and making sure that their customers are properly informed on what they’re eating.
Cold-pressed fresh fruit juices and beverages may be enjoyed with the salad for a deliciously healthy meal that is surprisingly very filling, as well.
Try the Lemon Soda (P105/regular), if you want to ease yourself into the whole fresh fruit juice diet first. It’s a fizzy drink, almost like your typical soda, but devoid of an obscene amount of sugar. It definitely tastes healthier, too.

Ginger and Lemon Soda

A personal favorite is the Ginger Soda (P105/regular), which has a strong ginger flavor reminiscent of salabat, albeit fizzy. Drink this if you need a pick-me-upper.
The Pineapple Chia Refresher (P80) might look weird to some unfamiliar with chia seeds—those fuzzy dark brown/black things that are often mistaken as pulp bits of a citrus fruit —but they are definitely 2013’s superfood of choice for the health conscious.

Pineapple Chia Refresher

Chia seeds are very high in fiber, and they are the best source of omega three fats in the market. Fiber + omega 3 fats = reduce the risk of heart disease greatly. Some people add chia seeds to solid food because they don’t really have any distinct flavor, and are, therefore, very easy to introduce to your meals. The chia seeds in the pineapple juice turn gelatinous after some time, making this drink far from boring.
Those on the Juju Cleanse diet can get their fresh juice supply at the restaurant, as well. A bonus: Bayani Brew, a Filipino iced tea brewed from lemongrass and pandan leaves with a hint of calamansi, can also be bought here.

Juju Cleanse Solos

Juju Eats doesn’t only promote their salads and beverages by opening a restaurant, they’re advocating a lifestyle change and they want to make it easier for us. It’s not a total 180-degree turn from your usual eating habits, but rather, a compromise you can ease into day after day. Until, it becomes second nature. Until, you’re not afraid of veggies and a salad isn’t just a side dish anymore.

15 Surprising Benefits of Cucumber

2013-07-10T16:35:00.001-07:00

Cucumbers are cooler than you think...

“1. Fat busting: Do you ever wonder why women put cucumbers on their eyes to relieve puffiness? The photochemical in cucumbers makes the collagen in your skin tighten, thus the lack of puffiness. Did you know that you can rub a cucumber on a problematic spot of cellulite anywhere on your body to lessen the visibility of it? Did you also know that it has the same effect on wrinkles? Wow, it makes purchasing those fifty dollar creams seem a little silly, doesn’t it? You can also rub a little bit under your kiddo’s eyes after a long bout of crying to avoid that puffy ‘I cried for an hour straight’ look.

2. Defogger: Do you get annoyed when you get out of the shower and you have to fight the fog on the mirror? Who has time for that when the kids will be awake at any moment? Try rubbing a slice of cucumber on the mirror before you hop in and not only will you get a fog-free mirror, but you’ll have a nice smell that will boost your mood.

3. Headaches: If you suffer from headaches from chasing your babies all day, or had a little too much wine with dinner and want to avoid a hangover, eat half of a cucumber before bed. Cucumbers are high in B vitamins, sugar, and electrolytes, and they replenish the nutrients missing in your body to help you avoid a hang over or to beat that headache that’s been threatening to take over.

4. WD-40 replacement: Did you know you can get rid of a squeak by rubbing a cucumber on the hinge? Wow, now you don’t have to tear your garage apart looking for that little can with the red straw, and the baby won’t wake up when you slowly open the nursery door to check on him.

5. Crayon on the walls: Take an unpeeled cucumber and rub the crayon off of the walls in the event that your kiddo left you some art. You can also use this technique to erase a pen mistake.

6. Halitosis killer: Take a slice of cucumber and put it on the roof of your mouth. Hold it there with your tongue for 30 seconds. The photochemical that you love for cellulite and puff reduction will also kill the bacteria that is causing your bad breath.

7. Tarnish remover: If you’re finding tarnish on your stainless steel kitchen faucets and appliances? Rub it off with a cucumber slice. Not only will it remove years of tarnish, it will leave it streak free and your hands will thank you, and your kids won’t be put at risk from a dangerous chemical.

8. Energy booster: If you’re feeling tired in the afternoon, don’t give Starbucks your five bucks. Instead, grab a cucumber. There are just enough carbohydrates and B vitamins to give you a longer-lasting and healthier boost of energy than soda, coffee, or those health hazard energy drinks.

9. Munchy madness: Did you know that European trappers ate cucumbers for energy and to keep from starving to death? If those big burly manly men can eat a cucumber to keep from starving, you can eat one as a healthy choice when the munchies hit. Slice some up and take them in a small plastic container to the movies if your theater doesn’t offer healthy alternatives to munching on butter soaked popcorn.

10. Frugal facial: Slice up a cucumber and boil it in a pot of water. The chemicals inside of the cucumber will mix with the steam. Remove the pot from heat and lean over it, letting the steam hit you. Your skin will be more radiant and healthy, and you will feel relaxed and rejuvenated.

11. Shoe polish: Cut a slice off of your cucumber and rub it on your shoe. It will not only shine it up, but it will repel water.

12. Pest control: Put three or four slices of cucumber in a small pie tin and place them in your garden. The chemicals in the cucumber have a reaction that pests hate. You won’t smell it, but it will drive them from your garden all year long. Replace them periodically.

13. Sunburn: Sometimes sun block doesn’t always protect your little ones from sunburn. If you have burnt little kiddos you don’t have any aloe, rub some cucumber on them. Many doctors even use cucumber to treat patients with irritated skin and sunburns.

14. Blood pressure: Cucumber has been long used to treat high blood pressure. If you have it, add cucumbers to your daily diet. There is also ongoing research into the use of cucumbers for lowering cholesterol.

15. Constipation remedy: The seeds of a cucumber are a diuretic. If you’re constipated, try eating a cucumber. If you suffer from chronic constipation, add cucumber to your daily diet.”

The Healing Power of Angels

2013-04-01T19:10:00.001-07:00

The Summit Lighthouse Study Group of the Philippines (TSL-Philippines) will present “The Healing Power of Angels”, a special international event on April 19-21.
The event includes a free public lecture on Friday, April 19, followed by a two-day retreat, April 20-21. The lecture and retreat will be held at Meeting Rooms 2 and 3 of the Philippine International Convention Center (PICC), CCP Complex, Roxas Boulevard, Manila.

TSL Philippines invites everyone to reconnect with those dearest and oldest of friends, the seven archangels. These wonderful beings have always been the teachers and helpers of mankind. They are ever near us, awaiting our calls for their help and guidance in whatever challenges, great and small, facing ourselves, our families, friends and nation.

This exceptional event has been held recently in Fatima, Portugal and in Mexico City, Mexico, as well as in the US, Canada, Russia and is now being presented here in Asia for the first time. The key messages in this presentation were originally given by the archangels through the Messenger of the ascended masters, Elizabeth Clare Prophet, in specially selected recorded dictations. This time, they will be brought to you with updated perspectives and interactive workshops by international lecturer Rev. Carla Healy and the current President of The Summit Lighthouse (TSL), Rev. Valerie McBride.

TSL is an international non-profit spiritual organization, providing all sincere spiritual seekers with opportunities for awakening to the divine light within. This unique spiritual path is based on the teachings of the ascended masters, the great saints and sages of all major religions and spiritual traditions. TSL was founded in 1958 by Mark L. Prophet, who was later joined in the organization’s leadership by his wife, Elizabeth Clare Prophet. Today, the Summit Lighthouse serves a global membership from its international headquarters in Gardiner, Montana, USA.

The TSL mission is to publish and practice the teachings of the ascended masters, with the ultimate goal being the reunion of the soul with the heart of God through the ascension. This path of immortal reunion with God is available to all who seek it, and TSL invites further inquiry and study through its various membership and subscription services, such as The Keepers of the Flame Fraternity, Pearls of Wisdom, Ascended Master Library, Summit University and more. Details about all Summit Lighthouse offerings will be available during this upcoming event.

Similar to previous international events heldin Manila in 2010 and 2012, The Healing Power of Angels will cover three days, beginning with the free public lecture (April 19, 7pm to 9pm) followed by two full days of exciting and informative presentations (April 20 and 21, 9 am to 7 pm each day). Fee for the 2-day retreat is P3,000 and includes lunch and snacks. Payments may be made at our Summit office at No. 1 cor. Gen. Atienza and Gen. Lim Streets, San Antonio Village, Pasig City (near ULTRA), or directly to the Summit Lighthouse Study Group of the Philippines bank account (BDO Current Account 0010-7800-7482).
