My suplements and extra foods

For the last 7 months apart from avoiding white sugar , I have added new component of foods and supplements in my diet:

1. Honey .
 Every morning with a table spoon of honey mixed with lukewarm water.
The thing that I noticed taking plain water early in the morning stimulate the kidney to pass urine rapidly just after we drink it. The bowel start to move everyday not like before.

2. Apple cider/apple vinegar/dates vinegar.
I am taking a tablespoon mixed with cold water everyday before bed time. One spoon diluted in my beer size glass approximately 250mls. Sometimes I mixed it with tea. It taste sour in the beginning but later you will get used to it. There is caution if you are suffering from gastric ulcer and gastritis. It may cause irritation to you already problematic stomach. Do not drink directly from the spoon undiluted. It will cause damage to you teeth and irritate lining of your esophagus.

3. Habatus Sauda ( Nigella Sativa ).
I usually take 1-2 gram per day ( approximately 2-4 capsule). Fairly cheap supplements and the most important thing it is coming directly from the nature. I have tasted all the form of this herbs a. The oil in the bottle ( i cannnot take the taste ), b. The dry black seed ( taste bitter but acceptable ) c. Capsule and in softgel ( my favourite ). It is called the MEDICINE OF THE PROPHET. Medically there is a lot of clinical research with encouraging results especially in field of medicine.

4. Olive oil.
I do not take regurlaly. The essence of youth in mediterranean   region . with the most widely use cooking oil in that region. From time to time I will it use it to cook vegetables. I have capsulated olive oil which I take twice a week and it is very cheap too. I have cold compressed coconut oil in my kitchen kabinet also as a good sourese of palmitic acid which may protect us from dementia.

5. Seabuckthorn oil.
The relatuvely expensive form of supplements in my list but worth it. The plant with perfect omega 3 to 6 ratio ( 1:1) and good for the cardivascular system. Rich in antioxidant, vitamins and acid aminos etc. I called it habatus sauda of ASIA.

I have thrown away all other synthetic vitamins which I found recenty cited in the journal to increase rate of death by 16%.

PERIODIC FASTING AND HEALTH

Question

Fasting diet: Can it improve my heart health?

Is it true that occasionally following a fasting diet can reduce my risk of heart disease?

Answer

from Martha Grogan, M.D.

Maybe. Researchers aren't exactly sure why, but it seems that occasionally fasting — not having any food and drink for about 24 hours at a time — can potentially improve your heart health.

It's difficult to tell what effect fasting has on your heart health because many people who routinely fast often do so for religious reasons. These people generally tend to not smoke or drink alcohol, which also can reduce heart disease risk.

However, it still appears people who follow a fasting diet may have better heart health than people who don't. This may be because people who routinely fast show self-control over how many calories they eat and drink, and this behavior may translate into better eating choices when they aren't fasting.

The link between periodic fasting and better heart health may also be linked to the way your body metabolizes cholesterol and sugar. Regular fasting can decrease your low-density lipoprotein, or "bad," cholesterol. It's also thought that fasting may improve the way your body metabolizes sugar. This can reduce your risk of gaining weight and developing diabetes, which are both risk factors for heart disease.

If you're considering periodically fasting, you should talk to your doctor before doing so. He or she can tell you whether fasting is a good idea for you, and how often you should consider doing so. Keep in mind that regularly following a heart-healthy diet and exercising regularly also can improve your heart health.

Listing of Sea Buckthorn Health Benefits

Listing of Sea Buckthorn Health Benefits

Sea buckthorn, a plant which produces the orange-colored sea buckthorn berry, and is grown primarily in the mountainous and colder regions of China, Russia and Canada, is rapidly becoming popular throughout the world for the hundreds of potential benefits it provides, both nutritionally and medicinally.  Whether taken internally, in the form of a juice, tea or supplement, or applied topically to the skin in oil, lotion or cream form, sea buckthorn is beginning to earn a reputation as a “super fruit” for its ability to both heal and prevent a wide array of illnesses and conditions.

• Acne:  The anti-inflammatory agents in sea buckthorn, such as quercetin and salycins, together with the immune boosting fatty acids mentioned above, work in harmony to help address the 3 main culprits of acne:  immune system, hormone imbalances and chronic inflammation. Read more about Sea Buckthorn and Acne. 
• Anti-aging:  Rich in vitamin A and vitamin E, sea buckthorn can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles and retard premature skin maturation. 
• Chemotherapy:  The flavonoids in sea buckthorn can help cancer patients recover more rapidly from the effects of radiation and chemotherapy treatment.

• Cell repair and rejuvenation:  Studies show that sea buckthorn can aid significantly in the repair and rejuvenation of the body’s cellular structure.
• Cerebral health:  The fatty acids, flavonoids and carotonoids found in sea buckthorn not only help reduce the risk of stroke, they promote overall brain health and memory.
• Cholesterol control: The flavonoids and essential fatty acids in sea buckthorn help to increase the good cholesterol (HDL) in your blood and reduce your risk of conditions such as coronary heart disease and stroke. Also, phytosterols reduce the amount of cholesterol that you take in during meals. 
• Fatigue: Sea buckthorn is rich in many important vitamins such as vitamin C and vitamin E, and can help reduce some of the more common symptoms of fatigue such as low energy and muscle tension. Sea buckthorn may even help promote a more restful night’s sleep.

Vinegar and diabetes

We have all heard about good advice to helpcontrol diabetes, but what about vinegar? While it might sound s bit far fetched, the truth is that there is more that can be derived from this liquid than you would imagine.

So how does vinegar work with diabetes? It has actually proven to be beneficial in several different ways. For one, when it is taken right before bedtime, it helps to alleviate blood sugar drops the next morning. When it is taken after a meal, it has the ability to slow blood sugar levels from rising too high.

The secret of this potentially magic elixir is acetic acid. It has been discovered that this is the ingredient that inhibits certain enzymes that digest carbs. When this occurs, it means that vinegar is available in the intestine where its presence gives certain starches and sugars a clear pass to continue throughput the digestive system without being processed. As a result, they have much less of an impact on blood sugar.

As with any other form of treatment, there are going to be those who have a better experience than others. But when you take into account the enormous potential, even a little relief is better than none.

To get past the unpleasant smell and aftertaste, it is best to include vinegar in your food instead of taking it outright. This is very easy to accomplish. The most common method is to use it as a salad dressing, along with other ingredients.

As an added bonus, it has proven to also be a good way to drop a few extra pounds. Taking a little right before a meal seems to be the trick.

Pomegranate juice drink Reduces the risks in diabetes

Pomegranate juice drink Reduces the risks in diabetes

Fresh pomegranate juice may be helpful for people with diabetes to decrease their risk of coronary disease.

An interesting new study shows that diabetes sufferers who drank pomegranate juice for a duration of three months had a reduced chance of atherosclerosis (or hardening of the arteries). Also, the pomegranate juice appeared to slow up the absorption of unhealthy ldl cholesterol by the suferrer's immune cellls.

Folk with diabetes have increasing probability of atherosclerosis, which contributes to heart disease, strokes and other cardiovascular difficulties.

These studies illustrate that the antioxidants in pomegranite juice might be extremely effective in decreasing the risk of coronary complications associated with diabetes.

"In most juices, sugars are present in free, and harmful, forms," says medical expert Michael Aviram, of the Technion Faculty of Medicine in Haifa, Israel, in a news release. "In pomegranate juice, however, the sugars are attached to unique antioxidants, which actually make these sugars protective against atherosclerosis."

Folk with diabetes aren't able to reaact to sugar normally and are usually advised to monitor their intake of food and beverages high in natural or processed sugars, which includes fruit juices.

In the research, discussed in the journal Atherosclerosis, experts analyzed the effects of drinking a specially poduced strong pomegranite juice that is the equivalent to a normal sized glass of fresh pomegranate juice, each day for 3 months in 10 healthy adults and 10 adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Pomegranate juice drinks did not affect overall levels of cholesterol, however specialists discovered it diminished the uptake of oxidized "bad" LDL cholesterol by immune cells, which is a major contributing factor to atherosclerosis.

Although pomegranate juice contains a similar level of sugars as other fruit juices, Aviram suggests they were pleasantly surprised to find that the sugars in pomegranate juice did not worsen diabetes mellitus indicators, such as blood glucose levels, in the participants suffering with diabetes.
