THE AMAZING ONIONS

Rahsia Sebiji Bawang :D

ONIONS! I had never heard this!!!

PLEASE READ TO THE END: IMPORTANT

In 1919 when the flu killed 40 million people there was this Doctor that visited the many farmers to see if he could help them combat the flu...

Many of the farmers and their families had contracted it and many died.

The doctor came upon this one farmer and to his surprise, everyone was very healthy. When the doctor asked what the farmer was doing that was different the wife replied that she had placed an unpeeled onion in a dish in the rooms of the home, (probably only two rooms back then). The doctor couldn't believe it and asked if he could have one of the onions and place it under the microscope. She gave him one and when he did this, he did find the flu virus in the onion. It obviously absorbed the bacteria, therefore, keeping the family healthy.

Now, I heard this story from my hairdresser. She said that several years ago, many of her employees were coming down with the flu, and so were many of her customers. The next year she placed several bowls with onions around in her shop. To her surprise, none of her staff got sick. It must work. Try it and see what happens. We did it last year and we never got the flu.

Now there is a P. S. to this for I sent it to a friend in Oregon who regularly contributes material to me on health issues. She replied with this most interesting experience about onions:

Thanks for the reminder. I don't know about the farmer's story...but, I do know that I contacted pneumonia, and, needless to say, I was very ill... I came across an article that said to cut both ends off an onion put it into an empty jar, and place the jar next to the sick patient at night. It said the onion would be black in the morning from the germs...sure enough it happened just like that...the onion was a mess and I began to feel better.

Another thing I read in the article was that onions and garlic placed around the room saved many from the black plague years ago. They have powerful antibacterial, antiseptic properties.

This is the other note. Lots of times when we have stomach problems we don't know what to blame. Maybe it's the onions that are to blame. Onions absorb bacteria is the reason they are so good at preventing us from getting colds and flu and is the very reason we shouldn't eat an onion that has been sitting for a time after it has been cut open.

LEFT OVER ONIONS ARE POISONOUS

I had the wonderful privilege of touring Mullins Food Products, Makers of mayonnaise. Questions about food poisoning came up, and I wanted to share what I learned from a chemist.

Ed, who was our tour guide, is a food chemistry whiz. During the tour, someone asked if we really needed to worry about mayonnaise. People are always worried that mayonnaise will spoil. Ed's answer will surprise you. Ed said that all commercially-made mayo is completely safe.

"It doesn't even have to be refrigerated. No harm in refrigerating it, but it's not really necessary." He explained that the pH in mayonnaise is set at a point that bacteria could not survive in that environment. He then talked about the summer picnic, with the bowl of potato salad sitting on the table, and how everyone blames the mayonnaise when someone gets sick.

Ed says that, when food poisoning is reported, the first thing the officials look for is when the 'victim' last ate ONIONS and where those onions came from (in the potato salad?). Ed says it's not the mayonnaise (as long as it's not homemade mayo) that spoils in the outdoors. It's probably the ONIONS, and if not the onions, it's the POTATOES.

He explained onions are a huge magnet for bacteria, especially uncooked onions. You should never plan to keep a portion of a sliced onion.. He says it's not even safe if you put it in a zip-lock bag and put it in your refrigerator.

It's already contaminated enough just by being cut open and out for a bit, that it can be a danger to you (and doubly watch out for those onions you put in your hotdogs at the baseball park!). Ed says if you take the leftover onion and cook it like crazy you'll probably be okay, but if you slice that leftover onion and put on your sandwich, you're asking for trouble. Both the onions and the moist potato in a potato salad, will attract and grow bacteria faster than any commercial mayonnaise will even begin to break down.

Also, dogs should never eat onions. Their stomachs cannot metabolize onions.

Please remember it is dangerous to cut an onion and try to use it to cook the next day, it becomes highly poisonous for even a single night and creates toxic bacteria which may cause adverse stomach infections because of excess bile secretions and even food poisoning.

Please pass this on to all you love and care about.

MY PERFECT FRIEND

START LOVING........

A VALENTINE'S DAY PICK-ME-UP BEET JUICE

By Sherin Bual

This is my latest morning squeeze.

Besides all its aphrodisiac qualities, this juice is simply the perfect energizing, detoxifying and immunity-boosting tonic for ANY day, particularly during these cold-weather months.

The ingredients are seasonal, both in the sense that most are sweet, fall-harvest favorites AND because this jewel-toned juice happens to be aesthetically and functionally matched with our annual love day! It’s so vibrantly hued and filled to the rim with sexy ingredients.

I Heart Beet Juice

Adapted from: The Big Book of Juices

Makes 2 servings

Ingredients

• 2 beets *
• 2 carrots
• 1 apple
• 1 orange**
• 1 celery stalk
• ½ - 1-inch piece ginger root

Directions

Put each ingredient in the order listed into your electric juicer according to the manufacturer’s directions.

*If you have a few beet greens (leaves) attached to your beets, feel free to juice them as well. This will result in a darker, more vegetal-flavored juice.

**Unless your orange skin is very thin, you will need to remove it and only juice the flesh.

Juicing tip: always juice your stringy, fibrous ingredients (like celery and ginger) last so they won’t accumulate inside your juicer and prevent the other ingredients from passing through properly.

BERSYUKUR DENGAN APA YANG ADA

SENYUM..........

YOUR LIFE, NOT YOUR GENES, IS WHAT ADDS YEARS TO YOUR FACE

Your mother's wrinkles may not be the best predictor of how you'll age. A study involving identical twins suggests that despite genetic make-up, certain environmental factors can add years to a person's perceived age. Factors such as divorce or the use of antidepressants are the real culprits that cause facial aging.




Researchers obtained comprehensive questionnaires and digital images from nearly 200 pairs of identical twins. The images were reviewed by an independent panel, which recorded the perceived age difference between the siblings.




Study subjects who had been divorced appeared nearly two years older than their siblings who were married, single or even widowed. Antidepressant use was associated with a significantly older appearance, and researchers also found that major weight gain or loss played a major factor, too.




In sets of twins who were less than 40 years old, the heavier twin was perceived as being older, while in those groups over 40 years old, the heavier twin appeared younger.



The presence of stress could be one of the common denominators that caused facial aging. The researchers also suspected that continued relaxation of the facial muscles due to antidepressant use could account for sagging.

Interestingly, this article is published in the official medical journal of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), and the study’s author, Bahaman Guyuron, MD, is also one of their member surgeons, so the study may have some ulterior motives.




As Dr. Guyuron said, “Our findings put science behind the idea that volume replacement rejuvenates the face."




In other words, plastic surgeons can use the finding that fuller faces appeared younger after age 40 as “proof” that injectable filler plastic surgery procedures can make you look younger. Already, more than 1.5 million such procedures were performed in 2007, according to ASPS statistics.




But to me, the REALLY interesting part of this study has nothing to do with going out and having your face injected with fat in an attempt to look a few years younger. Instead, what struck me was the finding that your life experiences shape the look of your face as you age, far more  than your genes do.




People who had been through the stress of a divorce looked nearly two years older than their married, single or even widowed twin. Those who used antidepressants also appeared significantly older. The researchers attributed this to the drugs causing continued relaxation of the facial muscles, which led to sagging, but it could also be that those taking antidepressants were under some type of psychological stress.




For those of you who are regular readers, you’ll know that this lends further credence to the emerging and incredibly interesting field of epigenetics, which centers around the notion that environmental factors such as stress and your diet influence the expression of your genes.




And it is the expression of your genes -- NOT the genes themselves -- that dictates whether you develop certain diseases or age prematurely.




How Stress Shapes Your Genes




Parents often joke about how their grey hairs all magically appeared after their kids were born. Likewise, if you’ve ever watched someone go through a divorce or other emotionally trying time, they can seem to age 10 years in a matter of months.




Even if you’ve faced just a few stressful days in a row, you’ll often be able to see it written all over your face.




These are prime examples of the toll stress can take on you physically.




As proven through the massive genetic study, the Genome Project, each one of your genes can create up to 30,000 proteins, any and all of which can create a different outcome. So the fact that you may have a genetic “predisposition” for facial wrinkles, for example, does not mean that you are doomed to develop a face full of wrinkles during middle-age.




There is something that either activates or suppresses your genes, and research by Bruce Lipton, PhD., a forerunner in the field of epigenetics and The New Biology, has shown it is often related to your mind.




In other words, whether you are mentally stressed or able to maintain a more positive outlook can influence the expression of your genes, and thus directly impact how you age.




Consider a study done back in 2001, which assessed how quickly the skin of medical students could recover from having a piece of sticky tape applied to it. What they found was skin recovery seemed to be directly linked to stress levels -- with high stress during exams associated with a decreased ability of the aggravated skin to return to normal function.




They concluded that stress lessens your skin's ability to function properly, heal wounds and fight disease, and could put you at an increased risk of skin diseases like psoriasis or dermatitis.




Meanwhile, scientific data has revealed that extended exposure to psychological stress could speed up the aging process of your cellsand cause them to die at a faster rate than normal.




Taken as a whole, what this means is your body’s ability to resist and adapt appropriately to both internal and external stresses is essential for good health, and the hallmark of aging is your body’s inability to withstand stress, which then starts to degrade it.




The solution, therefore, to preventing premature aging and having a youthful appearance on the outside is to effectively deal with your stress, and teach your body how to best tolerate it. This is great news, as it means that you have the ability to directly influence the way you age, simply based on your mental outlook.





Top Tips for Effectively Dealing With Stress




The key is not getting rid of stress completely, as we all face stressful situations from time to time (even exercise is a form of stress), but rather adjusting your body’s ability to tolerate the stress. Here are my top tips for doing so:

• Release negative emotions with the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). EFT, considered by many to be the ultimate stress-management tool, targets a person’s disrupted energy meridian system as the real driver behind heightened stress levels. This simple do-it-yourself acupressure technique balances your energy and eliminates your body and mind’s stress response.




• Exercise. Physical activity is an excellent way to relieve tension and ward off the physical consequences of stress. Studies have shown that during exercise, tranquilizing chemicals, endorphins, are released in your brain, making exercise a natural way to bring your body pleasurable relaxation and rejuvenation.




• Get plenty of sleep. Regularly catching only a few hours of sleep can hinder metabolism and hormone production in a way that is similar to the effects of aging and the early stages of diabetes. Plus, your body needs high-quality sleep to help it deal with stressful situations.




• Optimize your diet. Eating the right foods for your nutritional type can have a direct impact on your mood. It’s also important to get plenty of omega-3 fat, from fish oil or krill oil, as it can help to reduce psychological distress and depressive symptoms.




Omega-3 fats also help to normalize skin lipids and prevent dehydration in your cells. This keeps skin cells strong and full of moisture, which can help to decrease the appearance of fine lines.

What Else Can You do to Look Younger?

Focusing on the bright side of life is only one key way to keep a fresh, youthful appearance.

One of the most important strategies you can possibly do is to optimize your vitamin D levels by appropriate sun or safe tanning bed exposure. If this is not an option then taking an oral vitamin D supplement is the next best option. But if you take this route you must be sure and have your blood levels tested as there are simply too many factors to predict what the correct dose is unless you measure it.

Vitamin D controls about 2,000-3,000 of your genes and can radically improve every system in your body -- including your appearance. If you use the preferred UVB exposure to optimize your vitamin D levels you need to know that it is important not to overdo it. You only need enough exposure to turn your skin the slightest pink.

Additional exposure will not increase your vitamin D level but it will increase premature aging of your skin. So be careful and prudent out there.

As I said earlier, it is also helpful to pay attention to what you’re eating, and this one is so important it bears repeating. By consuming large amounts of whole, unprocessed, healthy raw foods that are loaded with antioxidants, you can help to slow down the speed at which signs of your real age show up.

In fact, one of the reasons I started vegetable juicing is that I would see 75-year-old women in my practice who looked like they were 40 years old with virtually no facial wrinkles. Most of them were doing large amounts of juicing and led healthy lifestyles.

Juicing is actually a great way to get more raw veggies into your diet, as long as you fine-tune your vegetable selections based on your nutritional type, and if at all possible, aim to buy organic, locally-grown vegetables that are in season.

It’s also important to cut back on sugar. Diets high in sugar increase free radicals and oxidative stress, and leads to signs of premature aging.

And the sooner you start to make these positive changes -- to your stress levels, mental outlook and your diet -- the better. Whether you’re young or old, this healthy lifestyle will help keep the signs of aging away, or at least slow them down considerably.

A SUREFIRE PLAN TO LOOKING ( AND FEELING) YOUNGER

By Dr. Joseph Mercola
with Rachael Droege

While you can"t prevent getting older, there are some steps you can take that will drastically affect the way you look and feel as you age. There is a big correlation between how you look and how you feel--when most of us think of looking younger we picture someone with a glowing complexion, firm skin and a youthful energy, in other words we picture someone who looks healthy. Well, looking healthy comes from the inside out, so the most important thing you can do is improve how you feel by fortifying your body with nutrients and rest. When you feel good on the inside, you will naturally look healthy on the outside too.

We"ve all seen those people who we know are "older" but yet they still "look great." Well, here is how you can become one of those people--and you don"t need cosmetic surgery to do it. Plus, since you"re addressing your health from the inside you will not only look great, but you"ll feel great as well.

There is a reason why the phrase "you are what you eat" became popular. I cannot stress enough how important diet is in the way you look and feel. If you choose to eat primarily junk food and processed food, not only are you not giving your body the nutrients it needs, but also you are consciously ingesting toxins that your body will have to work to remove.





You Are What You Eat

On the other hand, if you eat a diet full of pure, whole foods, your body will be healthy and will have the nutrients to devote to things such as skin and hair. If you want the details of a diet that is truly anti-aging, check out my nutrition plan.

There are many factors that come into play in respect to diet and aging. Some scientists believe thatcutting calories is an effective anti-aging strategy. I do believe that eating less is likely to be healthier for us in the long run. This is largely related to reductions in insulin levels, the major accelerant of aging. Insulin levels can be kept to a minimum by reducing or eliminating grains and sugar in your diet.

Consuming sugar and grains will increase your insulin level, and that is the equivalent of slamming your foot on the aging accelerator. There is simply no more potent way to accelerate aging than eating sugar and grains.

Along with the healthy diet described in my nutrition plan, there are certain foods that are particularly helpful to looking younger, such as blueberries. Blueberries are rich in antioxidants that have anti-aging effects. Most fruits and especially vegetables contain antioxidants, but blueberries have been ranked #1 in antioxidant activity by the USDA when compared to 40 other fresh fruits and vegetables. We now carry delicious and convenient Wild Blueberry IQ Softgel Capsules in our store that are made from whole fresh blueberries -- and contain 40mg of potent disease fighting anthocyanins per capsule -- more than any other available supplement!

Another excellent anti-aging food is coconut oil, and this one is doubly beneficial because it can be eaten and applied directly to your skin. Coconut oil can be used in place of oils, margarine, butter or shortening and used for all your cooking needs. It can help you lose weight, or maintain your already good weight, reduce the risk of heart disease and lower your cholesterol, among other things.

Plus, coconut oil can be used as a face and body lotion to reveal younger looking skin. Since it prevents destructive free-radical formation and provides protection against them, the coconut oil will not only bring temporary relief to the skin, but it will aid in healing and repairing. It can help to keep the skin from developing liver spots and other blemishes caused by aging and over exposure to sunlight, and it helps to prevent sagging and wrinkling by keeping connective tissues strong and supple. In some cases it might even restore damaged or diseased skin.

If this sounds surprising, I encourage you to read "The Truth About Coconut Oil: Why it Got a Bad Rep When it"s Actually Good." Also, be sure you only use a healthy and safe coconut oil, such as the premier virgin coconut oil we offer on this site.

Routine consumption of omega-3 fats through fish oil is another highly recommended method to feel and look younger. Fish oil contains high levels of the best omega-3 fats--those with the EPA and DHA fatty acids--and, as it is in pure form, does not pose themercury risk of fresh fish. Fish oil will help you to normalize your omega-3 to omega-6 ratio.  I personally take and recommend krill oil for your source of omega-3 fats.

Also, make sure that you drink plenty of pure water throughout the day, as this will help to hydrate your skin and flush toxins from your body.

Smile During the Day and Get Your Beauty Sleep at Night

There is quite a bit of truth behind the term "beauty sleep." That"s because when you sleep your body is able to repair cells and rest your heart and mind. It"s imperative that your body has a chance to revitalize itself overnight. Too many nights of missed sleep will show up on your face and will take a toll on your body too.

While you"re awake make sure that you take some time to enjoy life. It"s no illusion that stressful events seem to make wrinkles and gray hairs appear overnight. Stress will wear you down both inside and out--it has been estimated that up to 90 percent of illness and disease is stress-related.




If you feel that stress is taking a toll on your health, consider using Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), a type of psychological acupressure. EFT is remarkably effective in relieving stress associated with all kinds of events, from work to family to trauma. You can check out my free, 25-page EFT manual for some guidelines on how to perform EFT.

RAHSIA LELAKI WANITA SUPERB MESTI TAHU!

1) Kenapa lelaki selalu kata nak telefon tapi takde pun?




Bila dia call maksudnya dia ambil berat; dia cintakan anda; inilah biasanya definisi cinta bagi wanita dalam hal ni.



Definisi lelaki pulak; bila aku kerja kuat dan ada pendapatan yang stabil, aku, pasangan dan keluarga aku akan hidup dengan selesa; semua ini sebab aku sayang, cinta dan ambil berat.



Kalau dia tak call pada masa yang dijanjikan, mungkin dia sibuk, terlupa atau anda boleh tuduh/kata atau rasa anda seolah-olah tak penting dalam hidup dia. Namun itu TIDAK bermakna dia tak cintakan anda!



2) Lelaki tak suka anda bersikap seperti seorang ibu.




Jangan layan lelaki macam budak kecik, jaga semua keperluan dia hingga ke perkara yang kecil-kecil. Banyak benda yang dia boleh buat sendiri dan anda boleh/perlu memberi sokongan untuknya melakukan sendiri.



Lelaki TAK perlukan seorang lagi ibu! Kalau anda bersikap seolah-olah ibu yang menjaga segalanya untuk dia, percayalah dia akan mula mencari cinta yang lain.




3) Perasaan harga diri lelaki antaranya datang dari kejayaannya dalam karier dan apa yang diusahakan.



Oleh itu, amat penting untuk anda memberikan masa, peluang dan ruang untuk dia bercakap tentang kejayaan dalam hidupnya, walaupun boring la pulak anda mendengarnya. Adanya anda sebagai seorang pendengar yang baik pada masa itu adalah satu signal yang menyatakan kepadanya bahawa; Anda adalah seorang yang mengambil berat, prihatin, seorang yang boleh berkongsi hidup bersama dirinya, seorang yang boleh diharapkan, anda seorang yang amat pengasih dan dia pasti selesa dan suka bersama anda!

FOCUS ON UR 80% N LEAVE 20% FOR FLEXIBILITY

BY CHRIS FREYTAG
DECEMBER 27, 2013 8:40 AM EST

Ever think that living a healthy lifestyle is out of your grasp because your sweet tooth keeps overpowering your good intentions? Maybe your battle is with time and you feel like you'll never achieve a life where everything is harmonious. I have one little tip that can help improve your life tremendously—in all areas.

Commit to the 80/20 rule. Focus on your 80%. Leave 20% for flexibility.

Here's how it works:

1. Go for the 80/20 rule with food.

With this rule in mind, you can stay motivated and realistic. Choose healthy foods 80% of the time, or most of the time, and only indulge that sweet tooth 20% of the time or less. It's a good place to start. When you make the majority of your food choices healthy ones, your body will begin to crave the healthier choices. By thinking about the 80/20 rule, you can give yourself some freedom and flexibility to be human, but you'll be reminding yourself that most of your choices should be healthy.

2. Go for the 80/20 rule with exercise.

Only skip exercise 20% of the time. If you want to take a day off from exercise, that’s OK, but commit to exercising most days of the week.

3. Go for the 80/20 rule with your precious time.

Follow Stephen Covey’s advice and “Don’t prioritize your schedule, schedule those priorities.” Devote 80% of your day to your most important priorities. What things, if you accomplished them, would move the dial for you on your big goals?

Sometimes we can entangle ourselves in the little stuff, but at the end of the day, we don’t feel like we were truly productive. Start your day with the major stuff, and let go of the minor stuff until your more important priorities are accomplished.

Work on that voice inside your head this year. Are most of your thoughts positive? While it would be fabulous to be 100% positive, 80% is a good place to start. Practice making your mind a positive place the majority of the time. Your thoughts determine how you feel—so why not choose the positive?

5. Go for 80/20 with your life.

Do yourself a favor this year and toss out that life balance concept, it can make you chase perfection which is unobtainable. Lean your life toward what matters to you most. Make sure the majority of your time is spent on what you value most. Doing so will make you happier and you will feel a sense of calm because what you value internally will match the external.

Think 80/20 this year. It’s a rule you'll actually enjoy following!

 Dari Timeline seorg sahabat fb:Yogi Penenang Hati fb's timeline



Enjoyyyyyyy:



‘Abdullah bin Dawud berkata, “Adalah salah satu dari mereka (kaum Salaf), jika umurnya telah mencapai empat puluh tahun, maka mereka menggulung tempat tidurnya, mereka sama sekali tidak tidur. Akan tetapi memenuhi malamnya dengan shalat, tasbih, dan istighfar… mereka menggantikan waktu (umur) yang telah lalu dengan kebaikan dan menyiapkan diri untuk menghadapi kehidupan yang akan datang.”




Sesungguhnya Allah memiliki hamba-hamba yang cerdas,
mereka menolak dunia dan takut akan fitnahnya.
Mereka melihat apa yang ada di dalamnya, ketika mereka tahu,
bahwa tidak ada tempat bagi orang yang hidup di dalamnya.
Mereka menjadikannya sebagai gelombang,
dan menjadikan amal sebagai kapal.




‘Abdullah bin Tsa'labah berkata dalam nasihatnya, “Tertawalah engkau, barangkali kain kafan untukmu telah ada di tangan tukang potong kain!!”[1]





Wahai orang yang sedang tidur, perjalanan telah dimulai. Wahai yang membuat bangunan di atas tangga-tangga yang penuh dengan air bah, cepatlah melakukan amal sebelum umurmu punah… janganlah engkau melupakan Dzat Yang menghitung hembusan nafasmu saat perjumpaan denganmu.





Saudaraku tercinta…
Ambillah rizki secukupnya,
ambillah yang jernih dari kehidupan ini.
ini semua akan berakhir,
bagaikan lentera ketika padam.





Yahya bin Mu’adz rahimahullah berkata, “Dunia adalah tempat kesibukan, sedangkan akhirat adalah tempat terjadinya hal-hal yang menakutkan. Dan senantiasa seorang hamba ada di antara kesibukan dan juga kegoncangan (hal-hal yang menakutkan) sehingga datang kepadanya keputusan, ke Surgakah ia atau ke Neraka.”
