Drink Water and Stay healthy and Active.

This makes sense .. The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals .not cold water. Maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating!!! Nothing to lose, everything to gain...

For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you.

It is nice to have a cup of cold drink 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.

Benefits of Egg

After Doing Some Research on the Internet: I Found Out These About Eggs

1. Eggs are great for the eyes. According to one study, an egg a day may prevent macular degeneraton due to the carotenoid content, specifically lutein and zeaxanthin. Both nutrients are more readily available to our bodies from eggs than from other sources.

2. In another study, researchers found that people who eat eggs every day lower their risk of developing cataracts, also because of the lutein and zeaxanthin in eggs.

3. One egg contains 6 grams of high-quality protein and all 9 essential amino acids.

4. According to a study by the Harvard School of Public Health, there is no significant link between egg consumption and heart disease. In fact, according to one study, regular consumption of eggs may help prevent blood clots, stroke, and heart attacks.

5. They are a good source of choline. One egg yolk has about 300 micrograms of choline. Choline is an important nutrient that helps regulate the brain, nervous system, and cardiovascular system.

6. They contain the right kind of fat. One egg contains just 5 grams of fat and only 1.5 grams of that is saturated fat.

7. New research shows that, contrary to previous belief, moderate consumption of eggs does not have a negative impact on cholesterol. In fact, recent studies have shown that regular consumption of two eggs per day does not affect a person's lipid profile and may, in fact, improve it. Research suggests that it is saturated fat that raises cholesterol rather than dietary cholesterol.

8. Eggs are one of the only foods that contain naturally occurring vitamin D.

9. Eggs may prevent breast cancer. In one study, women who consumed at least 6 eggs per week lowered their risk of breast cancer by 44%.

10. Eggs promote healthy hair and nails because of their high sulphur content and wide array of vitamins and minerals. Many people find their hair growing faster after adding eggs to their diet, especially if they were previously deficient in foods containing sulphur or B12.

11. Eggs are packed with a range of nutrients including protein, essential vitamins A, D, E, and B group as well as minerals iron, phosphorus and zinc. They’re relatively low in saturated fat, making them a healthy fast food for all the family.They’re low in calories with only around 80 kcals per medium egg – so they are great if you’re on a diet, especially combined with vegetables and salads as part of healthy balanced meals!

12. Eggs are one of the most nutritious foods money can buy. They contain a wealth of vitamins, minerals and protein. In particular, they contain B vitamins that perform many vital functions in the body and are especially rich in vitamin B2 riboflavin, important in the release of energy in the body, and vitamin B12 needed for normal blood formation.

13. Eggs are a source of vitamin D, which is involved in the absorption of calcium and phosphorus and is necessary for bone health. They also contain vitamin A – essential for normal growth and development and vitamin E that is necessary for cell protection from the damage caused by free radicals.

14. Eggs contain many essential minerals, in particular phosphorus, essential for healthy teeth and bones, as well as iron, which is essential for red blood cell formation and zinc, for the normal function of the immune system.

15. Trace elements are also present in eggs, especially iodine, required to make thyroid hormones, and selenium, an important antioxidant. Antioxidants work by preventing the damage caused by uncontrolled oxidation in the body and are believed to help protect against diseases such as heart disease and some cancers.

16. Eggs are a great source of choline. Although not an essential nutrient, because it can be made by the body, dietary choline has become the focus of recent interest because of its role in brain function. Studies in animals suggest that choline intake during pregnancy might influence development of the baby’s brain in the uterus, but this has not been proven in humans.

Benefits of Colostrum

For centuries colostrum has been considered a potent health aid all over the world. It's a universally accepted natural health food, usually without side effects. Over the years, researches have proven the outstanding health benefits offered by quality colostrum. No matter the age, gender, or even species, colostrum can revitalize the health of all living beings.

The list of diseases colostrum is believed to cure is impressive. Researches have confirmed that colostrum can cure anemia, asthma, chronic fatigue, chronic pain, diabetes, emphysema, gout, gingivitis, hemorrhoids, influenza, lupus, joint injuries and post-surgery pain, multiple sclerosis, nerve injuries, shingles, stress, stroke, temper outbursts, tendonitis, thyroid disorders, ulcers, and more.

People all over the world take antibiotics to fight diseases. But antibiotics are artificial and they usually come with side affects. Colostrum is as effective as an antibiotic for many diseases but without the side affects. Also, the growth factors found in colostrum can reverse or repair the damage caused by age, injury and more.

Colostrum helps athletes and body builders by building lean muscle mass and it burns fat because it has IGF-1, which metabolizes fat for energy.

And colostrum can work wonders for children, as it revitalizes memory, improves concentration, and develops a strong immune system in kids. Even pets can benefit from bovine colostrum, since the bovine variety is the only colostrum in nature that is not species-specific.

Consumption of colostrum also improves prostate health, speeds healing of injuries, improves hair growth, reduces allergy symptoms, and it can even improve your sex life. To be able to enjoy all the benefits of bovine colostrum, it should be obtained from the first milking.

Colostrum provides detailed information about colostrum, colostrum benefits, colostrum milk, colostrum and pregnancy and more. Colostrum is the sister site of Progesterone Benefit.

More on Colostrum:

What is Colostrum Used For?

One benefit of colostrum is that it comes from cow's milk so it is a natural health food. It contains a complete formula of essential vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids, amino acids, immune factors and growth factors. 

Colostrum was designed by nature as part of mother's milk so it helps the young grow up strong and healthy. 

First milking bovine colostrum from cow's milk has been used by people all over the world and throughout history to support the immune system and as a natural, complete whole-food dietary supplement. 

Another benefit of colostrum that it is famous for is its historic reputation in helping the body fight off colds and infection and to stimulate the immune system. 

Many people also take it for help with dieting and bodybuilding, and to help in athletic and anti-aging health regimens. 

Discovery of Colostrum Benefits

In the 1940's colostrum became popular for use by people suffering from rheumatoid arthritis and other age related problems. 

In the 1950's colostrum was a source of natural antibodies which helped lead to the creation of the polio vaccine. 

In the 1970's and 1980's colostrum grew in popular use against yeast infections, viruses and the flu, and autoimmune problems. 

In the 1990's another benefit of colostrum was discovered. It was found to help fight stomach bacteria and help soothe stomach ulcers. 

In the 2000's colostrum has been studied for its natural growth factors that may help bodybuilders turn fat and flab into firm muscle, and to assist in anti-aging efforts. 

Precautions

There are no reported side effects, adverse reactions or toxicity reports in medical literature regarding any benefit of colostrum. However it is an ingredient in cow's milk so if you are allergic to milk you should consult your doctor. There are no published warnings or risks of taking this health food when used with common sense and following label directions. But as always, consult your health care professional before taking any supplements, especially if you are on medication, are pregnant or nursing. 

Suggestions on Choosing a Quality Supplement

1. Be a careful consumer and buy your dietary supplements only from manufacturers that are pharmaceutical GMP compliant. The most professional companies will maintain strict adherence to regulatory standards and practices. Consumers need to shop carefully because dietary supplements are not standardized or regulated in the U.S. and may not contain what is stated on the label. Some supplements have even been found to contain contaminants. 

2. Check the label to make sure your supplements do not contain any cheap fillers, additives, or artificial colors, etc. Some additives may include sugar, aspartame, gluten, cornstarch, rice starch, silica (sand), artificial flavoring, artificial color, etc. 

3. To get your money's worth and enjoy the benefit of colostrum, make sure you buy only standardized products. Why standardized extracts and products? Because they deliver true-to-label ingredients and potency for the best efficacy and benefits. Tests of some supplements have shown that they contain far less of the active ingredients than they claim on their labels. 

Many companies do not want to use standardized extracts because they make more profit using non-standardized ingredients and cheap additives. Get what you pay for and what your body needs for optimum health. Why take a chance? Use only the best - only standardized extracts. Your health may depend on it.

Fish - What is the benefits

Fish has long known to be an important diet, this is because it is a good source of Protein. Fishes are staple diet among people who lives down the river or along the seaside as it is difficult to get raw meat.

Besides containing protein and other nutrients such as vitamin D and selenium, fish (either finfish or shellfish) contain a specific type of fat, omega-3 fatty acids, that may reduce the risk of developing heart disease and other medical problems. However, fish may also contain mercury and other contaminants that may have risks for health.

Foods rich in omega 3 fatty acids
The recommended daily amount of omega 3 fatty acids from fish is 200–600mg and from plants it is 1–2g. 

The following are approximate amounts of omega 3 fatty acids per 60g serve of varieties of fish: 

  • Salmon (fresh Atlantic) 1,200m
  • Smoked salmon 1,000mg
  • Canned salmon 500mg
  • Sardines 1,500mg
  • Trout (fresh rainbow) 350mg
  • Gemfish 300mg
  • Blue-eye, shark (flake), salmon, squid 250mg 
    Scallop or calamari 200mg
  • Sea mullet, abalone 170mg
  • Canned tuna 145mg
  • Orange roughy or sea perch 7mg.

Omega-3 fatty acids are found in fish—especially oily fish such as salmon, sardines, and herring. These omega-3 fatty acids can help lower your blood pressure, lower your heart rate, and improve other cardiovascular risk factors. 


Eating fish reduces the risk of death from heart disease, the leading cause of death in both men and women. Fish intake has also been linked to a lower risk of stroke, depression, and mental decline with age. 


For pregnant women, mothers who are breastfeeding, and women of childbearing age, fish intake is important because it supplies DHA, a specific omega-3 fatty acid that is beneficial for the brain development of infants.

Omega-3 fatty acids contribute to a decreased risk of sudden death and arrhythmia; decreased thrombosis (blood clots); decreased triglyceride levels; decreased growth of atherosclerotic plaque; and lower blood pressure. 

Omega-3s also show promise for reducing the risk of dementia, arthritis, asthma and kidney disease.

Possible Drawbacks for eating Fish

Despite the clear benefits of fish, warnings about polluted waters have some concerned that a buildup of toxic matter in fish, including mercury and PCBs, could diminish or counteract their good work.

Some fish contain mercury. For men and women not of childbearing age, it is not clear that mercury exposure from typical levels of fish intake has any adverse health effects. In contrast, fish intake has significant benefits for reducing the risk of death from heart disease, the number one cause of death. So, mercury exposure from fish intake should not be a major concern for men or for women not of childbearing age. The benefits of fish intake can be maximized by consuming a variety of different seafood. 


Mercury may have subtle effects on the developing nervous systems of infants. Therefore, pregnant women, women who may become pregnant, those who are breastfeeding, and very young children should avoid 4 types of fish that are higher in mercury content: shark, swordfish, king mackerel, and golden bass. Other fish should still be consumed to ensure that infants receive the benefits of DHA for brain development. Light tuna has relatively low levels of mercury, and other fish, such as wild and farmed salmon and shrimp, contain very low levels of mercury. 


Chemicals called dioxins and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) can accumulate in foods, including fish. The levels of these chemicals in fish, including farmed fish, are very low and similar to levels in meats and dairy products. Compared with the health benefits of fish intake, the health risks of these chemical levels are very low and should not influence individual decisions about fish intake. Compared with store-bought fish, locally caught freshwater fish may have higher chemical levels, so local advisories should be consulted.

Therefore, it is very important to know where the fishes come from before it ends up on the dinner table.
