    To Your Health!

    Folks it appears to me that in order to have a successful life 3 items are important and they are Health, Wealth and Happiness. When all are in balance life should be good.

    I have decided to post periodically some health tips which perhaps can benefit us all !
    The Amazing Lemon! is a tip I had gotten from an email sent to me by a friend.....whether I buy the whole concept or not .....a lemon does appear to benefit one's health! Here is the email which I received!
    " Just recently we had been discussing alkaline v/s acidic with a friend who's sister-in-law was just diagnosed with stomach cancer. She had gone to see an Iridologist and this Specialist basically told her the same info that it contained in this email. very interesting! For whatever reason, lemons help the body with it's alkaline balance which is what the body needs to remain healthy .
    Amazing frozen lemons
    All it is.....is a frozen lemon
    Many professionals in restaurants and eateries are using or consuming the entire lemon and nothing is wasted.
    How can you use the whole lemon without waste?
    Simple.. place the washed lemon in the freezer section of your refrigerator. Once the lemon is frozen, get your grater, and shred the whole lemon (no need to peel it) and sprinkle it on top of your foods.
    Sprinkle it to your vegetable salad, ice cream, soup, cereals, noodles, spaghetti sauce, rice, sushi, fish dishes, whisky, wine.... the list is endless.
    All of the foods will unexpectedly have a wonderful taste, something that you may have never tasted before.
    Most likely, you only think of lemon juice and vitamin C.
    Now that you've learned this lemon secret , you can use lemon even in instant cup noodles.
    What's the major advantage of using the whole lemon other than preventing waste and adding new taste to your dishes?
    Well, you see lemon peels contain as much as 5 to 10 times more vitamins than the lemon juice itself.
    And yes, that's what you've been wasting.
    But from now on, by following this simple procedure of freezing the whole lemon, then grating it on top
    of your dishes :
    1. You can consume all of those nutrients and get even healthier.
    2. It's also good that lemon peels are health rejuvenators in eradicating toxic elements in the body.
    3. I t is a key to make your foods tastier and you get to live healthier and longer!
    4. Lemon (Citrus) is a miraculous product to kill cancer cells. It is 10,000 times stronger than chemotherapy.
    Why do we not know about that? Because there are laboratories interested in making a synthetic version that will bring them huge profits.
    You can now help a friend in need by letting him/her know that lemon juice is beneficial in preventing the disease. Its taste is pleasant and it does not produce the horrific effects of chemotherapy.
    As you know, the lemon tree is known for its varieties of lemons and limes.
    You can eat the fruit in different ways: you can eat the pulp, juice press, prepare drinks, sorbets, pastries, etc... It is credited with many virtues, but the most interesting is the effect it produces on cysts and tumors..
    This plant is a proven remedy against cancers of all types. Some say it is very useful in all variants of cancer. It is considered also as an anti microbial spectrum against bacterial infections and fungi, effective against internal parasites and worms, it regulates blood pressure which is too high and an antidepressant, combats stress and nervous disorders.
    The source of this information is fascinating: it comes from one of the largest drug manufacturers in the world, says that after more than 20 laboratory tests since 1970, the extracts revealed that It destroys the malignant cells in 12 cancers, including colon, breast, prostate, lung and pancreas....
    The compounds of this tree showed 10,000 times better than the product Adriamycin, a drug normally used chemotherapeutic in the world, slowing the growth of cancer cells.
    And what is even more astonishing: this type of therapy with lemon extract only destroys malignant cancer cells and it does not affect healthy cells.
    So, give those lemons a good wash, freeze them and grate them. Your whole body will love you for it!!!!!"

    If there is no interest or this type of material is deemed unsuitable ......I shall terminate this post permanently!

    Thanks.

    I support LEMONS!

    Most people think of them as extremely acidic but they turn amazingly alkaline in the body.

    Another tip for alkaline: Take a little bit of baking soda and rub over your teeth and gums. (rinse) It immediately turns your mouth alkaline. Test it yourself on a ph strip. Disease cannot flourish in an alkaline environment.

      Phoenix, Funny how a lemon turns alkaline in the stomach. Maybe similar are the hot peppers that burn up your mouth but are actually good for the stomach and digestion.

          Mr. Market, I seem to have a gift for growing hot peppers but I don't eat them, the wife does! Here's a video. Watch to the end it gets interesting. I'll bet the Huge One eats them by the handful.

            Phoenix - thanks for all of the information on lemons - I'm going to get some, freeze them, grate them, and then eat them - I assume you store the unused grated lemon in the refrigerator.

            Billy - I grow hot banana peppers - usually only two dozen plants - but they provide enough to eat for the growing season (get at least a dozen peppers from each plant) - I plant them in horse manure. I used to fry them in EVOO, but now I microwave about 7-8 peppers in a shallow stoneware baking dish - drizzle with any kind of oil - cover with wax paper - 4-6 minutes in 60 percent setting (I have a 1000 watt microwave) depending upon the size of the pepper.

            A wise lady, now eating canned vinegar peppers in that wonderful kitchen in the sky, taught me how to can medium hot banana peppers - I do about 2 dozen quarts each year at the end of the summer - if you or anyone wants the recipe, I would be glad to share it - I put a jalapeno in some of the jars to kick them up a notch.

                I assume you are talking about peppers, not lemons, LOL. I also can peppers in oil to use as you mention, in omelettes or with scrambled on italian bread.

                  Phoenix, I know many cancer survivors, so I took an above average interest in this post. I first went to Snopes.com and checked it out:



                  Your friend basically emailed you some of the information that has been making the rounds of the internet since 2011. Snopes rates this a “Mixture Of True And False Information.”

                  The jury is out on the claims made in your friend's email. Here is the last paragraph of the Snopes article.

                  “However, the best that can be said at this point is that citrus fruits may potentially harbor anti-cancer properties that could help ward off cancer. No reputable scientific or medical studies have reported that lemons have been found to be a "proven remedy against cancers of all types," nor has any of the (conveniently unnamed) "world's largest drug manufacturers" reported discovering that lemons are "10,000 times stronger than chemotherapy" and that their ingestion can "destroy malignant [cancer] cells." All of those claims are hyperbole and exaggeration not supported by facts.”

                      The Dr Says , "Lose Weight"

                      Many have heard those words after a recent physical, namely , "Lose Weight" What should your ideal weight be? The BMI or Body Mass Index is a number which suggests what your ideal weight should be .
                      The calculation is not complex , but the simple math involved does scare off many from the calculation. Here is a link to a site which will compute the number for you automatically.
                      I checked my BMI which was 25.4 , and slightly overweight.
                      Here is the link .....how do you , "weigh in?"

                        Tomato Juice May Be Helpful?

                        Here is another interesting health tip garnered form the internet!

                        " Tomato juice helps prevent heart disease - especially for type 2
                        diabetes (who have high risk of heart attack). This is a result
                        of a study published in Journal of the American Medical
                        Association. Group of people were given 250ml of tomato juice
                        daily. The amount of platelet aggregation (a great indicator of
                        heart attack risk) decreased whooping 27% in only three weeks."
                        V8 does make a "Low Salt" vegetable JUICE that is quite tasty !

                            Still, I think freezing and grating the lemons is a great idea. I have a lemon tree and tons of lemons, but most go to waste, and I've never eaten the whole thing, only the juice once in a while... now I have something new to try!

                              My dad had some citrus trees down in FL .........absolute best oranges and best grapefruit I had ever eaten . I used to box up 50 lbs to take with me on my way back home.
                              My dad eventually sold and bought a condo ......the upkeep was just too labor intensive, and expensive.
                              Good luck with your lemons ......the vitamin C is natural and all good!
