I talk about mushrooms in my garden the other day and how i want to extol its virtues. It is my favourite good.
I have done a reserach that mushroom is a superfood.
-Mushrooms are one of the highest antioxidant foods in the world.
-Mushrooms are a good source of the essential minerals, selenium and copper.
-Mushrooms are an excellent source of fibre.
Mushrooms can help to prevent disease, are a natural source of Vitamin D and provide one of the most powerful supplies of antioxidants.
Mushrooms also provide B group vitamins such as Riboflavin, Niacin and Biotin.
Mushrooms are very low in salt, but they have many other minerals that are essential to humans, such as Selenium, Phosphorus and Potassium.
Convinced? Oh yea, please take more. There are really a lot of healthy food around. Please eat consciously with the aim to maintain your general well-being.
I believe people today knows what is acupuncture. Yes it a rather common kind of alternative treatment that has gained trust and recognition away from the western medical practitions. Is it spiritual treatment? Not sure seriously. It is basically means a form of healing treatment originated in China and the healer will stick in fine needles at one’s body acu points to stimulate some healing reaction or to achieve some therapeutic purposes.
I have tried once before. Acupuncture is not really scary or painful. There are some levels of pain when needles are inserted. Adults should have no problem reacting to this kind of superficial pains which subsides less than a second later. You can definitely be assured that you will be relieved from the pain that’s been tying you down.
The theory behind acupuncture is that in human body, there are many acupoints interconnected to other side and via external stimulation of appropriate acupoints, the ailments can be healed. Each type of acupuncture boasts of a different focus and benefit to its patients although the process is almost the same.
To look for an acupuncturist, one must be careful to take note who are the licensed healers who can give you a peace of mind in the course of treatments. Also, not everyone could be treated through acupuncture. A licensed acupuncturist would first and foremost evaluate the patient through questioning and interrogation to know whether he or she could be subjected to such type of treatment. This is done to make sure that there could be nothing wrong with the treatment and the process in general.
Wintry weather makes me getting sicked easily, especially so when I’m older each year. If there’s one thing I hope for, its for a better health and immune system. Flu and cough comes to me particularly regular. Colder weather makes cold viruses more active and stronger, it seems.
That’s why I’m very apprehensive when I make contact with people who have cold because I know I’ll get it. Searching around online, I’ve found the following tips to be useful to guard against cold and flu.
- Vitamin C can significantly reduce cold symptoms and help you get over it faster, according to health experts. Recommended dosage is about 500 to 1000mg per day when you are down.
- Consume garlic which is an antiviral, antibiotic herb. It comes even in odour-free tablets if you are worry about the smell.
- Have ample amount of zinc as the human immune system doesn’t function properly when you’re zinc deficient. The usual dosage to take when you’re feeling sick is 23 mg. of zinc.
Right these are the nature’s health healing remedies for us against cold and flu. I hope to see better results soon.
I went for my regular health checkup on Saturday and was told by that doc that my blood pressure had shot up to a level that is undesirable. It was over 200 and I know that is not a positive sign. I don’t know why it had gone up so much in just over half a year. Is it because of the work stress? In the end, I was given some doses of medicine that’s supposed to control the blood pressure and I really hate those pills.
Other than that, I was also told my cholesterol level was high too and I need to control the food that I’m eating. Eat more fresh vegetables and fruits and have regular exercises, I was told but I thought I have been eating those? Sometimes I am wondering what these docs are doing and I think I can do a better job if I were them.
