Diabetics Treatment

Finally Good New for All Diabetics.

Recently, I went for a routine blood test. The test was for the cholesterol monitoring as I have been taking the ZOCOR medicine for quite some time. When the result came back, I was in a bit of shock when the doctor told me that the sugar level is too high, exceeding the threshold.

As this was the first time, the doctor asked me to go back to the Clinic for another test on the glucose the following day. During the subsequently test, I asked to provide the urine and a blood sample was taken. After this, I was given a drink, which I think was glucose. I was asked not to eat anything and can only drink water, and to go back in an hours time.

When I returned an hour later, again I was asked to provide a urine test, and blood sample taken. This was repeated for a second time for the next hour. When the report came out, it was a relieve that it was a false alarm and I was told that I do not have to take any medication. When I checked further into this diabetic treatment, only then did I realise how important it is not to be inflicted with diabetic conditions as this tend to lead to many complications.

So when I received this in an email about a treatment for diabetics, I thought to share this with you immediately. Below is the detail of the Treatment for Diabetics.

Diabetic ! Finally good news for all Diabetics.

A woman (65) was diabetic for the last 20+ years and was taking insulin twice a day, she used the enclosed homemade medicine for a fortnight and now she is absolutely free of diabetes and taking all her food as normal including sweets.....

The doctors have advised her to stop insulin and any other blood sugar controlling drugs. I request you all please circulate this email to as many people as you can and let them take the maximum benefit from it.

Dr. Tony Almeida (Bombay Kidney Speciality expert) made the extensive experiments with perseverance and patience and discovered a successful treatment for diabetes. Nowaday, a lot of people, old men and women in particular suffer a lot due to diabetes.

Hot Cocoa For High Blood Pressure

Could hot cocoa be the new "wonder drug" for High Blood Pressure

According to recent estimates, nearly 1 in 3 American adults has high blood pressure. But for the Kuna Indians living on a group of islands off the Caribbean coast of Pananma, hypertension does not even exist. In fact, after age 60, the average blood pressure for Kuna Indian islanders is a perfect 110/70.

Is it because they eat less salt? No, Kuna Indians who eat as much, if not more salt, than people in the US.

Is it due to their genes? No. Kuna Indians who moved away from the islands are just as likely to suffer from high blood pressure as anyone else!

So what makes these folks practically "immune" to hypertension - and lets them enjoy much lower death rates from heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, and cancer?

Harvard researchers were stunned to discover it's because they drink aout 5 cups of cocoa each day. That's right, cocoa!

Studies show the flavonois in cocoa stimulate your body's production of nitric oxide - boosting blood flow to your heart, brain, and other organs. In fact, one study found cocoa thins your blood just as well as low-dose aspirin!

But that's not all. A Harvard Medical School professor claims cocoa can also treat blocked arteries, congestive heart failure, stroke, dementia, and even impotence!

Cocoa - A hot cup of cocoa with marshmallows

So if you enjoy your cocoa drink, you can enjoy it much better now knowing what good it can bring. If you don't drink cocoa, maybe it's time you start to a cup of cocoa a day, to keep hypertension away. This maybe a cure to control your hypertension and high blood pressure

Value of Banana

The Banana King. Who would imagine, banana, a kind of very cheap fruit and available in abundant has anti-cancer property. I came across this circulation that says that eating banana can help prevent cancer. With today's lost of many lives to cancer, I hope spreading this knowledge will help the mass.

The fully ripe banana produces a substance call TNF which has the ability to combat abnormal cells. TNF apparently stands for Tumor Necrosis Factor, some very technical and medical term.

So don't be surprised very soon the shop will go out of stock of bananas. As the banana ripens, it develops dark spots or patches on the skin. The more dark patches it has, the higher will be its immunity enhancement quality.



Hence the Japanese love bananas for a good reason. According to a Japanese scientific research, banana contains TNF which has anti-cancer properties.

The degree of anti-cancer effect corresponds to the degree of ripeness of the fruit, that is the riper the banana, the better the anti-cancer quality.

In an animal experiment carried out by a professor in Tokyo U comparing the various health benefits of different fruits, using banana, grape, apple, water melon, pineapple, pear and persimmon, it was found that banana gave the best results. It increased the number of white blood cells, enhanced the immunity of the body and produced anti-cancer substance TNF.

The recommendation is to eat 1 to 2 bananas a day to increase your body immunity to diseases like cold, flu and others.

According to the Japanese professor, yellow skin bananas with dark spots on it are 8 times more effective in enhancing the property of white blood cells than the green skin version.

Like the saying an apple a day, keeps the doctor away. Likewise, a banana a day, keeps cancer away.

Diabetes Natural Treatment

A Wonder Drink to cure your Diabetes.
Thanks to the wonder of Lady Finger. A common item for cooking to the chinese, lady finger is common vegetables for food. Never do I realise the good properties of it, that can control and reduce the sugar level in our blood, and as a result can cure diabetes.

Diabetes is becoming a very common disease afflicting the mass and especially those are can live off better in life. For those who have diabetes, will know the inconvenience and problem and hassle of taking insulin injections. Of course, nowadays, there are tablets that can be taken instead. Having diabetes is dangerous, as this can lead to other illness easily.

Lady Finger - this is how it looks like.


The following email arrive just a couple of days ago, and I thought it good to share this. Here the story goes,


"Quote"

Please note that another name for Lady Finger (Bhindi) is "OKURA". Last month, in one of the TV program I learnt of a treatment of Sugar (Diabetes).

Since I am diabetic, I tried it and it was very useful and my Sugar is in control now. In fact I have already reduced my medicine. Take two pieces of Lady Finger (Bhindi) and remove/cut both ends of each piece.

Also put a small cut in the middle and put thse two pieces in glass of water. Cover the glass and keep it at room temperature during night.

Early morning, before breakfast simply remove two pieces of lady finger (bhindi) from the glass and drink that water. Keep doing it on daily basis.

Within two weeks, you will see remarkable results in reduction of your Sugar.

My sister has got rid of her diabetes. She was on INsulin for a few years, but after taking the lady fingers every morning for a few months. She has stopped Insulin but continues to take the lady fingers every day.

But she chops the lady fingers into fine pieces in the night, adds the water and drinks it all up the next morning.

Please try it as it will not do you any harm even if it does not do much good to you, but U have to keep taking it for a few months before U see results, as most cases might be chronic. "Unquote"

Looks like it is not the food that we eat is important, but rather how the food is handle and process plays an important part.

On the Brick

The Brick Story

The story was told as below;

A young and successful executive was travelling down a neighborhood street, going a bit too fast in his new Jaguar.

He was watching for kids darting out from between parked cars and slowed down when he thought he saw something. As his car passed, no children appeared. Instead, a brick smashed into the Jag's side door! He slammed on the brakes and backed the Jag back to the spot where the brick had been thrown.

The angry driver then jumped out of the car, grabbed the nearest kid and pushed him up against a parked car shouting, "What was that all about and who are you? Just what the heck are your doing! That's a new car and that brick you threw is going to cost a lot of money. Why did you do it?

The young boy was apologetic. "Please, mister ..please, I'm sorry but I didn't know what else to do," he pleaded, "I threw the brick because no one else would stop..." with tears dripping down his face and off his chin, the youth pointed to a spot just around a parked car. "It's my brother," he said. " He rolled off the curb and fell out of his wheelchair and I can't lift him up."

Now sobbing, the boy asked the stunned executive, "Would you please help me get him back into his wheelchair? He's hurt and he's too heavy for me".

Moved beyond words, the driver tried to swallow the rapidly swelling lump in his throat. He hurriedly lifted the handicapped boy back into the wheelchair, then took out a linen handkerchief and dabbed at the fresh scrapes and cuts. A quick look told him everything was going to be okay. "Thank you and may God bless you, " the grateful child told the stranger. Too shock up for words, the man simply watched the boy push his wheelchair-bound brother down the sidewalk towards their home.

It was a long, slow walk back to the Jaguar. The damage was very noticeable, but the driver never bothered to repair the dented side door. He kept the dent there to remind him of this message: "Don't go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at you to get your attention!". God whispers in our souls and speaks to our hearts. Sometimes when we don't have time to listen, He has to throw a brick at us. It's our choice to listen or not. End of Story.

The point is due to the need to make a living, we rush our daily lives through, most of the time on a very fast lane. In the process, we overlook many people and happenings around us. And sometimes, things happened along the way that serve as wake-up call to ourselves. Let's us pause for a while and give time to our lives to see, feel and appreciate things that are there. And hopefully, we will never need such a story on the brick to wake us up.

Pretty Lady

Lesson from the Story of the Pretty Lady

Very often, when our feelings are hurt by others, whether over something that people have done or not done, we harbor the hurt for a long time and suffer in silence for a long time. In the process, the hurt extends beyond a long long time, something very unwise and can bring untold damage. Perhaps the following story of the Pretty Lady brings home the point.

Here goes the story

Once upon a time, a big monk and a little monk were travelling together. They came to the bank of a river and found the bridge was damaged. They had to wade across the river. There was a pretty lady who was stuck at the damaged bridge and couldn’t cross the river. The big monk offered to carry her across the river on his back. The lady accepted. The little monk was shocked by the move of the big monk. “How can big brother carry a lady when we are supposed to avoid all intimacy with females?” though the little monk. But he kept quiet.

The big monk carried the lady across the river and the small monk followed unhappily. When they crossed the river, the big monk let the lady down and they parted ways with her. All along the way for several miles, the little monk was very unhappy with the act of the big monk. He was making up all kinds of accusations about the big monk in his head. This got him madder and madder. But he still kept quiet. And the big monk had no inclination to explain his situation.
Finally, at a rest point many hours later, the little monk could not stand it any further, he burst out angrily at the big monk. “How can you claim yourself a devout monk, when you seize the first opportunity to touch a female, especially when she is every pretty? All your teachings to me make you a big hypocrite.”
The big monk looked surprised and said, “I had put down the pretty lady at the river bank many hours ago, how come you are still carrying her along?”

(This very old Chinese Zen story reflects the thinking of many people today. We encounter many unpleasant things in our life, they irritate us and they make us angry. Sometimes, they cause us a lot of hurt, sometimes they cause us to be bitter or jealous..But like the little monk, we are not willing to let them go away. We keep on carrying the baggage of the ‘pretty lady’ with us. We let them keep on coming back to hurt us, make us angry, make us bitter and cause us a lot of agony. Why? Simply because we are not willing to put down or let go of the baggage of the ‘pretty lady’. We should let go of the pretty lady immediately after crossing the river, that is after the unpleasant event is over. This will immediately remove all our agonies. There is no need to be further hurt by the unpleasant event after it is over. Science is organized knowledge, Wisdom is organized life.

Barley Benefits

Ever wonder the healing and cleansing properties of barley

One of the common problem affecting us is having to remove stones from our body. Over times, whether we like it or not, stones get accumulated within some organs in our body. Many years back, I remember trying out a formula to help remove stones from our gall bladder. I was told that we all have stones within us. It is a matter of few or many. The more water we drink, the better it is for us. Recently, I have come across 2 friends who unfortunately, have to remove stones from their kidney. So when I received the following internet mail, I thought of sharing the goodness of barley and drinking barley water. Apparently, this came from someone in Australia.

For the Chinese, drinking barley water is a common habit. Here goes the content of the internet story

“High in fibre, barley is also a kidney cleanser. Better yet, regular intake of it helps prevent heart disease. BARLEY water was always a regular drink when we were still living at home. Whenever we had to go for a medical exam that included a urine test , my mum would have us drink barley water a day before it to make sure we got a positive result!

My mother was a wise woman. I later found out from an Australian naturopath that barley known to be a kidney cleanser, and he happily downed glasses of it at a meal we had in the coffee shop here.

Barley is good for your intestinal health too. Try to eat the barley grains you find in your drink or sweet broth and fu chook (bean curd skin) and gingko nuts.

It’s high in fibre which feeds the friendly bacteria in the colon and helps speed up the transit of fecal matter in int. In this way it helps prevent haemorrhoids and colon cancer.

The propionic acid and beta glucan from barley’s insoluble fibre also help lower cholesterol and prevent the formation of gallstones.

Eating barley regularly is a preventive step against heart disease as, besides the fibre content, it is also high in niacin, a B vitamin good for lowering cholesterol.

Diabetics should eat more barley as the fibre will prevent blood sugar levels from rising too high. It also provides relief from constipation or diarrhea for those suffering from Irritational Bowel Syndrome.

Barley is rich in selenium which prevents cancer and relieves symptoms of asthma and arthritis. It is a good source of manganese, copper and phosphorous.

Malt sugar comes from sprouted barley which, when fermented, is an ingredient in beer and other alcoholic beverages.

Barley, whose Latin name is Hordeum vulgare, has been cultivated for more than 10,000 years.
Since ancient times, barley has been used for healing purposes and has been known to the Chinese, Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans. Athletes in Greece and Rome in those days were known to eat barley bread to give them strength.

Besides the usual things we do with barley, I enjoy having it in a western soup. The large pearl barley is used and I love the sticky bite of it.

Here’s a recipe for barley soup:

Barley soup with roasted garlic
- 1 cup pearl barley
- 5 cloves whole garlic, roasted
- 2 litres chicken stock, steeped from 1 chicken breasts simmered in 3 litres water
- 2 tbsps vegetable oil
- 2 large onions, diced
- 150g turkey ham, cut up
- 1 tsp ground white pepper
- 1 tsps sea salt or to taste
- 1 tbsp chopped parsley

Method
1. Wash barley and soak it in a bowl of water for 3 hours. Drain.
2. Heat oil in pan and fry onions. Add carrots and celery, then the barley and fry for 3 minutes
3. Add Chicken stock, pepper and roasted garlic and simmer over low heat for at least an hour, or until barley is soft.
4. Add salt to taste and serve the soup garnished with chopped parsley.


Well, I have not tried this recipe. But I do drink a lot of barley water and can tell that it has many good properties. Like many people used to ask me whether the things that I consumed is effective, I would say that the fact that I am still around and healthy is good enough evidence.

Things you never knew your cellphone can do

Hand phones are so ubiquitous nowadays that if you ask anyone that something that one cannot do away without, hand phone is probably listed among the top items. It comes in so handy that one can be at a lost when he forgets to bring along his hand phone. As it is so convenient and handy that always accompany us, it is important that we get to know some unique features of hand phones that are useful during emergency cases. Below are some that I came to know about from an email that I got from a friend.

Here below are the pleasant suprises!

There are a few things that can be done in times of grave emergencies.
Your mobile phone can actually be a life saver or an emergency tool for
survival. Check out the things that you can do with it:

*1*
* The Emergency Number worldwide for **Mobile** is 112 .* If you find
yourself out of coverage area of your mobile network and there is an
emergency, dial 112 and the mobile will search any existing network to
establish the emergency number for you, and interestingly this number 112
can be dialed even if the keypad is locked. **Try it out.**

*2*
* Subject: Have you locked your keys in the car? Does you car have remote
keys?*
This may come in handy someday. Good reason to own a cell phone:
If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are at home, call
someone at home on their cell phone from your cell phone.
Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the person
at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on
their end. Your car will unlock. Saves someone from having to drive your
keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away,
and if you can reach someone who has the other "remote" for your car, you
can unlock the doors (or the trunk).
Editor's Note: *It works fine! We tried it out and it unlocked our car
over a cell phone!"*

*3*
Subject: Hidden Battery power
Imagine your cell battery is very low , you are expecting an important call
and you don't have a charger. Nokia instrument comes with a reserve
battery. To activate, press the keys *3370# Your cell will restart with
this reserve and the instrument will show a 50% increase in battery. This
reserve will get charged when you charge your cell next time.
AND

*4*
How to disable a STOLEN mobile phone?
To check your Mobile phone's serial number, key in the following digits on
your phone:

* # 0 5 #
A 15 digit code will appear on the screen. This number is unique to your
handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. when your phone get
stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code. They
will then be able to block your handset so even if the thief changes the
SIM card, your phone will be totally useless.
You probably won't get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever
stole it can't use/sell it either.
If everybody does this, there would be no point in people stealing mobile
phones.


Please spread this useful information around. Someone may need it someday.

Stroke symptoms – early signs of a Stroke

Stroke as the cause of death is high on the list. The cause of stroke is well known, yet people find it hard to resist the temptation what good life can offers. So the next best thing is if we cannot prevent it, is perhaps to recognize it and more so at the onset of the stroke itself.

I received the internet mail on the 3 indicators very much earlier. However, recently, this 4th indicator came. And I think it will do us much good to be aware of this as we might never know, the knowledge comes in handy sometimes not to ourselves, but to those around us. And so the internet story goes as follows;

Subject: Blood Clots/Stroke - They Now Have a Fourth Indicator, the Tongue.

I've heard about the tongue being an indicator of stroke, but hadn't seen in written down. It is always useful to keep in mind such simple indications to indicate stroke.


Blood Clots/Stroke - They Now Have a Fourth Indicator, the Tongue.



Below I will continue to forward this every time it comes around!STROKE:Remember The 1st Three Letters....S.T.R.My nurse friend sent this and encouraged me to post it and spread the word.I agree. If everyone can remember something this simple, we could save some folks.

Seriously..Please read:

STROKE IDENTIFICATION:During a BBQ, a friend stumbled and took a little fall - she assured everyone that she was fine (they offered to call paramedics) ....she said she had just tripped over a brick because of her new shoes.They got her cleaned up and got her a new plate of food. While she appeared a bit shaken up, Ingrid went about enjoying herself the rest of the eveningIngrid's husband called later telling everyone that his wife had been taken to the hospital - (at 6:00 pm Ingrid passed away.) She had suffered a stroke at the BBQ. Had they known how to identify the signs of a stroke, perhaps Ingrid would be with us today. Some don't die.... they end up in a helpless, hopeless condition instead.It only takes a minute to read this...A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke...totally. He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed, and then getting the patient medically cared for within 3 hours, which is tough.

RECOGNIZING A STROKE
Thank God for the sense to remember the '3' steps, STR . Read and Learn!

Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke.Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions:

S *Ask the individual to SMILE.
T *Ask the person to TALK and SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently)(i.e. It is sunny out today)
R *Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS.

If he or she has trouble with ANY ONE of these tasks,call 911immediately and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher.

New Sign of a Stroke -------- Stick out Your Tongue

NOTE: Another 'sign' of a stroke is this: Ask the person to 'stick' out his tongue.. If the tongue is 'crooked', if it goes to one side or the other, that is also an indication of a stroke.

A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this e-mail sends it to 10 people; you can bet that at least one life will be saved.

Hope you will never need to use this new knowledge. Feel free to leave your comments on this.

Beware of the Danger with Dry Ice – Enjoy your Baskin Robbins Ice Cream

My family is one that use to buy Baskin Robbins Ice Cream, and they offer special discount on certain days. When you buy a lot, they pack it up nicely with Dry Ice to ensure that the ice cream does not melt by the time you reach home.

When I receive this email, I must say that I am thankful that I am also one that is ignorant of the danger without realizing it. So if you are like me, who goes to buy Baskin Robbin Ice-Cream, just be aware of the danger with the dry ice, and make sure you wind down your window, on your trip home. Or if you do fetch Dry Ice for other purpose, be cautious.

This is how the internet story goes….

Remember this especially when we buy lots of ice cream during Baskin Robbins
31st day offer!!!
They normally put dry ice in your ice cream pack if you buy a lot.


A friend bought four pack of ice cream and to prevent it from melting,
the seller put the dry ice amongst the ice cream. My friend put it at
the back seat (not the back of the car) and he started to drive with the
windows closed and the air condition on (as what we all do). Soon after that,
he had difficulty to breath and it was getting worser by minutes.
Luckily, he was in a traffic jam and when he almost fainted, beside him
was an ambulance. He dragged himself to the ambulance and got the oxygen
treatment. He was getting better on the way to the hospital.

The ambulance officer drove his car to the hospital and he had the same
experience. However, before his condition worsen, he opened up the
window and he can breathe easily. Only later, when my friend has
returned to office and told his colleagues about his story, they pointed
to him that the dry ice was the problem. WHY?

Dry ice was made of CO2 and when it "melts", it becomes CO2 gas straight
away without leaving any wet mark (that is why it is called dry ice).
CO2 is easier to be tied up in our blood and thus, when the dry ice
sublimes into CO2 gas, it fills the car room with it along with the air
con circulation and caused CO2 poisoning. So, don’t put the dry ice
inside your car if you are using air condition with fully closed windows. You
must leave the windows open for such situation.

Hope this will help to prevent any fatality just from a small negligence
like this. Imagine if you have your children inside, they might be the
first victim.

Well be careful, and enjoy your ice cream.

Herbal Treatment for High Blood Cholesterol

In my interaction with people, it is not uncommon to find that for every 10 persons that we interact with, there are at least a few people who would complain that they are affected by cholesterol problem. I remember that in my early days, cholesterol as a health issue is unheard of. Perhaps, our lifestyle and diet today has contributed to our unhealthy situation.

This one internet mail that I came across, shares of the secret of using a type of Black Fungus (Mok Yee) to help to control the cholesterol level. I can recall eating and having consumed numerous times the Black Fungus as a food item for the Chinese dish. I have heard of its good and healing properties before, but with this internet story, there is specific portion and method of preparation which I think is helpful. So if you are already high on this cholesterol reading, you can try the following formula and see the improvement to your reading.

The internet stories goes as follows;

The beauty of herbal treatment for High Blood cholesterol
I want to share a secret for treating high cholesterol. Three weeks ago l went for a cholesterol check. To my surprise, it was above the normal range which should be less than 5.2 mmol/L. My reading obtained was 6.6. I had been consuming a lot of red meat and lamb recently. After consuming Mok Yee (black fungus) for two weeks, l had my cholesterol checked again and found that my cholesterol level fell to 4.70 mmol/L My pharmacist said that even cholesterol medication will need 1- 3 months to take effect. She was very surprised and said it is a miracle.

Review:
I immediately followed an advice of a friend who told me about Black fungus (Mok Yee). He had four block heart arteries, over 90 percent blocked. His cardiologist advised him to go for bypass surgery, failing which he would suffer an imminent heart attack. His sinseh ( chinese physician) friend advised him against surgery as the procedure would be messy, painful and expensive. He followed the advice of his sinseh friend by consuming Mok Yee (black fungus) daily. After consuming boiled Mok Yee juice for 40 days, he went for an angiogram. His heart specialist was surprised and shocked that his arteries were all cleared of any blockage and it would not be necessary to see him for another 10 years!

My observation is that Mok Yee juice is not only effective in treating high blood cholesterol but also helps to bring relief to joint paints, arthritis and poor blood circulation.
The internet info. claims : that Mok yee reduces blood clot, preventing thrombosis, atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease,and cancer. Black Fungus contains abundant protein, ferric, calcium, vitamin, rough fibre, the content of protein is equal to meat.

Preparation :
1) Pick a hand full of Mok Yee and soak in water for 1-2 hours
2) Wash Mok Yee and cut to pieces with scissors.
3) Pour five bowls of plain water into slow cooker (crock pot)
4) Put 2-3 slices of ginger, 8-10 red dates, 20 kay chee(wolf berry) into crock pot.
