Have you ever wonder why every morning you wake up sneezing, wheezing and your eyes are watery and you always seems to have a sore throat? This might help you. I seems to keep getting throat infections and doctors kept giving me antibiotics and it just doesn't go away. This goes on for a long long time..... Then I learnt of this term during my allergy test with the Doctor and learnt that I had delayed food allergy on quite a number of food. When I went on the Internet and check this term, guess what...... all my favourite food are on the list of Histamine Releasing Food, and no wonder I am getting so much problem. I guess when you are normal and strong it doesn't bother you. But when your body is weak it tip the balance, so there goes...

Take a look on the list and you might want to just avoid the food for a year or so and let your body rest, if you are getting all kind of EarNoseThroat problems. Usually avoiding the food a little while do help to unload your Body system.

Juicing for Health

On Wednesday Ah Ming recommended me to drink Juice with Raw Potato (1 pcs about knuckle size, Half a carrot(of about 7inches size) with Raw green Chinese Spinach with Wild Honey. Geez, I was thinking it must taste real awful. Tried it today but it really taste Good. I am supposed to take these once a day, everyday for 90days. I was told after 3 weeks it will show results.

Check out the properties today and found that raw potato juice is a Liver cleanser and lumbago and relieve constipation, eczema, improve digestive system, reduce stomach acid and relieve ulcer pains, treat migraines and constipation. The raw honey is very important to lower risk of poisoning in raw potatoes. Sounds amazing right?

Read here, I got the above info from this web site http://guide2herbalremedies.com/therapeutic-properties-potato-juice/

Carrot have cleansing effects, relieve constipation and physical exhaustion. It is a superfood, just read the following:

The list of useful microelements and nutrients which are contained in carrots is really very impressive. Along with the mentioned beta-carotene, it includes also Vitamins C, B, E, D and K, proteins, potassium, calcium, phosphorus, zinc, aluminum, sodium, manganese, iron, copper and a lot of other minerals. Carrots contain great amounts of nicotine acid, which is important for metabolism of fats and lipids. The vegetable is a great source of natural magnesium, which assists in decreasing bad cholesterol levels in the body, helps to relieve spasms and strengthen our blood vessels.

Carrot juice has very good anti-inflammatory, anti-cancerous and anti-aging properties. Carotene is a known anti-oxidant, which can prevent degenerative processes in the cells and has great anti-aging effects. The compounds containing in carrot juice also have antiseptic and anti-bacterial properties. That is why it can be effective to treat wounds and insect bites with some carrot juice, which in such case will also bring some slight relief for pain and help to avoid swelling. Also, drinking raw carrot juice can be helpful for lowering the symptoms of stresses and normalizing the function of your digestive system.

Many specialists underline that mixing carrot juice with other fruit or vegetable juices can substantially boost therapeutic effects of these natural remedies. For example, adding some spinach juice to a glass of your carrot juice can help you to refresh your mind, calm down and improve your sleep. Also, this mixture has very good cleansing properties and can relieve the symptoms of constipation.

But I am really please with the combination that was recommended by Ah Ming, simple combination and Cure All solution.

There are side effect to juicing too

Figs contain phenols, which are antioxidants that may help with weight loss and help to protect against cancer and heart disease.[5] Of all the common fruits, figs are the highest in overall mineral content and are an excellent source of both soluble and insoluble fiber.
Fruit is an important part of a healthy diet. MyPyramid.gov is a good place to find personalized health information and recommended servings sizes for all food groups based on height, weight and activity levels. Recommended quantities for daily fruit consumption varies for each individual. In general, a goal for fruit intake is to try to eat 1 ½ - 2 cups of fruit per day (1 cup for children 2-5 years old).[6] 
 A Serving Size of Figs [7] grams
 Dried figs (about 5 dried figs) 40g
 Fresh figs (about 3 medium, 2 ¼ inches) 140g
 A 40 gram (1/4 cup) serving of dried figs provide: 3.82g dietary fiber (15% DV), 100 kcal energy, 66.78 mg calcium (7% DV), .81 mg iron(4% DV), 271.89 mg of potassium (8% DV), and 28.62 mg of magnesium (7% DV).

Practice Song : Amazing Grace













Be Positive and Understand the Power of Prayer


Thank you God for creating ME!
In your womb I have been fashioned;
Your spirit dwells within me;
Truly I am wonderfully marvelously made!

From your love and wisdom have I come
To this place and time.
To me you have given talent and life and blessings.
To me you have given tasks given to no others.

With joy and gratitude
I celebrate my much-honored existence.
From ages past to eternity,
I have been included in your divine plan. 


Found the story below on a website and would like to share it with you , my friend, and as a reminder to me of GOD's Grace......so in everything GIVE THANKS !

There was a blind girl who hated herself because she was blind. She hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend. He was always there for her. She told her boyfriend, ‘If I could only see the world, I will marry you.’

One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her. When the bandages came off, she was able to see everything, including her boyfriend.
He asked her, ‘Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?’ The girl looked at her boyfriend and saw that he was blind. The sight of his closed eyelids shocked her. She hadn’t expected that. The thought of looking at them the rest of her life led her to refuse to marry him.
Her boyfriend left in tears and days later wrote a note to her saying : Take good care of my eyes, dear. I’ll always love you.
————– —————– —————
This is how the human brain often works when our status changes. Only a very few remember what life was like before, and who was always by their side in the most painful situations. Life is a Gift.

Today before you say an unkind word – Think of someone who can’t speak.
Before you complain about the taste of your food – Think of someone who has nothing to eat.
Before you complain about your husband or wife – Think of someone who’s crying out to GOD for a companion.
Today before you complain about life – Think of someone who went too early to heaven.
Before whining about the distance you drive Think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet.
And when you are tired and complain about your job – Think of the unemployed, the disabled, and those who wish they had your job.
And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down – Put a smile on your face and think: you’re alive and still around.

“Rejoice always,
pray without ceasing,
in everything give thanks;
for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
