CLEAN YOUR KIDNEYS

Years pass by and our kidneys are filtering the blood by removing salt, poison and any unwanted entering our body. With time, the salt accumulates and this needs to undergo cleaning treatments and how are we going to overcome this?

It is very easy, first take a bunch of parsley and wash it clean. Then cut it in small pieces and put it in a pot and pour clean water and boil it for ten minutes and let it cool down and then filter it and pour in a clean bottle and keep it inside refrigerator to cool.

Drink one glass daily and you will notice all salt and other accumulated poison coming out of your kidney by urination also you will be able to notice the difference which you never felt before.

Parsley is known as best cleaning treatment for kidneys and it is natural!

Pineapple

The pineapple is a member of the bromeliad family. It is extremely rare that bromeliads produce edible fruit. The pineapple is the only available edible
bromeliad today. It is a multiple fruit. One pineapple is actually made up of dozens of individual flowerettes that grow together to form the entire fruit. Each scale on a pineapple is evidence of a separate flower.

Pineapples stop ripening the minute they are picked. No special way of storing them will help ripen them further. Color is relatively unimportant in determining ripeness.

Choose your pineapple by smell. If it smells fresh, tropical and sweet, it will be a good fruit. The more scales on the pineapple, the sweeter and juicier the taste.

After you cut off the top, you can plant it. It should grow much like a sweet potato will. This delicious fruit is not only sweet and tropical, it also offers many benefits to our health.

Pineapple is a remarkable fruit. We find it enjoyable because of its lush, sweet and exotic flavor, but it may also be one of the most healthful foods available today.
If we take a more detailed look at it, we will find that pineapple is valuable for
easing indigestion, arthritis or sinusitis. The juice has an anthelmintic effect; it helps get rid of intestinal worms.

Let's look at how pineapple affects other conditions.

Pineapple is high in manganese, a mineral that is critical to development of strong bones and connective tissue. A cup of fresh pineapple will give you nearly 75% of the recommended daily amount. It is particularly helpful to older adults, whose
bones tend to become brittle with age.

Bromelain, a proteolytic enzyme, is the key to pineapple's value. Proteolytic means "breaks down protein", which is why pineapple is known to be a digestive aid. It helps the body digest proteins more efficiently.

Bromelain is also considered an effective anti-inflammatory. Regular ingestion of at least one half cup of fresh pineapple daily is purported to relieve painful joints common to osteoarthritis. It produces mild pain relief. In Germany, bromelain is approved as a post-injury medication because it is thought to reduce inflammation and swelling.

Orange juice is a popular liquid for those suffering from a cold because it is high in Vitamin C. Fresh pineapple is not only high in this vitamin, but because of the bromelain, it has the ability to reduce mucous in the throat. If you have a cold with a productive cough, add pineapple to your diet. It is commonly used in Europe as a post-operative measure to cut mucous after certain sinus and throat operations. Those individuals who eat fresh pineapple daily report fewer sinus problems related to allergies. In and of itself, pineapple has a very low risk for allergies.

Pineapple is also known to discourage blood clot development. This makes it a valuable dietary addition for frequent fliers and others who may be at risk for blood clots.

An old folk remedy for morning sickness is fresh pineapple juice. It really works!
Fresh juice and some nuts first thing in the morning often makes a difference. It's also good for a healthier mouth. The fresh juice discourages plaque growth.

H1N1

Apa itu H1N1?

Viral novel influenza type A H1N1, ianya berasal dari virus avian flu (selsema burung H5N1) yang telah menjangkiti babi @ khinzir dan telah bergabung dengan swine flu (yang sepatutnya hanya menjangkiti ternakan babi sahaja) dan telah evaluasi (mutasi) untuk penyesuaian diri di dalam 'host' yg lebih tinggi di dalam rantaian makanan @ manusia. Semasa di dalam badan manusia, sekali lagi ia berevolusi supaya ia menjadi 'air-borne' dan menjangkit dari manusia kepada manusia.

Jangka hayat virus

Oleh kerana ia adalah viurs yg air-borne, ia hanya boleh bertahan di udara selama 2 hingga 8 jam sahaja. Jika selepas tempoh tersebut ia idak mendapat perumah @ host(badan manusia) ia akan mati. Maka bilik yang dibiarkan selama 24 jam dengan air ventilation yg baik....akan 'bersih' dari virus tersebut.

Asal virus ini

Sebenarnya telah terdapat outbreak di US sebelum terjadi outbreak di Mexico tetapi tidak dilaporkan kepada WHO. Kemungkinan outbreak ini telah dikesan dan US mahu 'baling batu sembunyi tangan' lalu tercetuslah outbreak di Mexico .

Virologi virus H1N1

Incubation period yang singkat pada purata 2 hari dgn julat 1 - 4 hari, ini bermakna ia cepat menyerang badan manusia setelah ia menjangkit pesakit. Pesakit akan menunjukkan simptom selepas 1 hari dijangkit paling cepat dan selewat2nya hari ke-4.
H1N1 sebenarnya adalah selsema biasa namun kepada pesakit yg berisiko, ia dapat membunuh. Jika pesakit adalah seorang yg normal, ia hanya akan memberi kesan seperti demam selsema biasa dan batuk.

Cara serangan

Virus ini boleh disebarkan melalui batuk, bersin dan percakapan.
Virus ini akan menyerang sistem pernafasan (seperti selsema burung dan SARS)
peringkat awal, ia hanya pada 'trakea' jika tidak mendapat rawatan awal, ia akan menyerang paru2 dan boleh menyebabkan kematian akibat 'lung collapse' ia amat merbahaya kepada golongan yg berisiko tinggi


Siapa yang berisiko:-
1. Orang yg ada masaalah 'obesiti' @ gemuk
2. Perempuan yg mengandung
3. Orang yg ada asthmatic
4. Orang2 yg bermasalah dengan sistem imunisasi (menjalani 'operation yg besar', kanak2 yg belum cukup suntikan imunisasi, golongan2 yg rendah tahap imuniti eg. HIV etc.)

* kematian yg telah dilaporkan terdiri drpd golongan2 di atas

Simptom2

Day 1 = rasa kurang sihat, tak bermaya
Day 2 = selsema, batuk dan demam yg kekal (demam tidak turun walaupun telah makan ubat demam)
Day 3 = rasa kurang selesa di bahagian dada dan sesak nafas
Day 4 = sakit dada yg teruk..jumpa doktor dengan segera.......
Day 5 = and above.....lung collapse @ koma

Langkah2 kawalan
1. Golongan2 yg berisiko, elakakn drpd kesesakan ( kawasan yg padat dgn orang ramai)
2. Menjaga kebersihan diri, basuh tangan selalu dan dgn betul, jaga kebersihan rumah dan persekitaran.
3. Elakkan diri jika terdapat 'orang batuk, bersin dan kurang sihat'.
4. Jika kurang sihat, elakan diri dari beraktiviti (sosial dan berkumpulan).
5. Jika kurang sihat dan ada ILI ( influenza light illness @ selsema biasa) jangan hadirkan diri di kawasan orang ramai. Jika terpaksa, pakai 'mask' (sekurang2 nya 3 ply mask).
6. Untuk orang yang sihat, elakkan dari kawasan yang padat.
7. Jika ada tanda2 simptom diatas, segera ke hospital untuk pemeriksaan dan rawatan.
8. Jika sihat, jangan ke hospital atau klinik untuk 'check-up' kerana di kawasan tersebut mengandungi banyak virus.
9. Tak perlu ambil anti-viral @ apa2 ubat influenza!!!!!!!!!!. Jika sihat dan mengambilnya, akan mengakibatkan resistan kepada vaksin @ ubat2 untuk merawat jika terkena jangkitan. Ini adalah kerana berlakunya resistansi virus terhadap persekitaran badan yang telah mengambil ubat2 tersebut terlebih awal.
10. Vaksin hanya akan 'wujud' seawal2nya pada Oktober dan hanya untuk 'frontliner' sahaja dan untuk awam selewat2nya pada 2010.
11. Untuk makluman, influenza test hanya dijalankan di 2 makmal sahaja di Malaysia. Mengambil masa 6 jam untuk run-test kepada 1 batch sample. Jika klinik menyatakan mereka boleh jalankan ujian, itu tidak betul. Tak perlu ambil suntikan seasonal influenza kerana ia tidak berkaitan.
12. Tahap kesedaran dan pengetahuan yang tinggi amat perlu untuk kita sama2 menghadapi outbreak ini. Sama2lah kita berdoa kpd ALLAH s.w.t agar bala ini cepat berlalu. Amin.

JIKA ISTERI KITA SAKIT

Di satu petang, kita balik dari pejabat dengan hati yang penuh harapan, harapan disambut oleh isteri dan anak-anak di depan pintu. Pintu diketuk dan salam diberi. . Apabila pintu dibuka, hanya anak sahaja yang menjawab salam.

Bagi anak perempuan kita cium pipinya dan anak lelaki pula kita usap kepalanya. Kebiasaannya, emak mereka juga akan menyambut dengan tersenyum simpul. Tetapi tiada pada petang ini. Kita pun terus ke bilik study untuk meletakkan brief case kita. Kita ke bilik tidur dan dapati isteri kita terbaring berselimut atau yang serupa
dengan itu.

Kita pun bertanya, "Sakit ke?"... Isteri kita diam aje dengan wajah yang menggambarkan dia memang sakit. Kita pun terus ke dapur bancuh minuman sendiri dan minum depan TV. Lima minit kemudian isteri kita turun dan terus ke dapur menyediakan makanan untuk malam. Disebabkan kita nampak dia boleh ke dapur dan sediakan makanan maka kita pun terus ke bilik study sambung kerja pejabat atau keluar rumah untuk bermain badminton atau cuci kereta. Dalam hati kita berkata, 'isteri tu taklah teruk sangat sakitnya,sebab nampak dia boleh berjalan ke dapur'.

Cuba kita selami, apa pula hati isteri kita berkata.

"Alhamdulillah, Abang dah balik, nanti nak ajak abang ke klinik jumpa doktor dan ambil ubat. Badan ni tak larat nak bangun. nanti dia naik ke bilik baru nak bersiap tukar pakaian ke klinik."

Abang pun tanya, "Sakit ke?" Dalam hatinya," Hai takkan tak nampak orang tengah sakit ni, tanya pulak. Tengok tu, dia buat tak peduli aje..tengok TV pulak... sepatutnya ajaklah ke klinik... ... " Sambil turun ke dapur hatinya berkata, "Orang sakit, dia bukan peduli, tapi kalau dia yang sakit, macam-macamlah dia suruh kita buat untuk dia. Menyampah..nanti kita dah tak bangun sangat, baru terhegeh-hegeh nak
tolong usung ke klinik." Maka diusahakan juga ke dapur walaupun dirinya sakit,
untuk berbakti pada anak-anaknya.

Wahai para suami dan juga para lelaki yang bakal bergelar suami..isteri kita mempunyai jiwa 'anak kecil'apabila dia terkena demam, sakit kepala dan sebagainya dan lebih-lebih lagi"pening-pening-morning sickness".

Walaupun sakitnya itu tidak seberapa pada pandangan kita, tetapi sangat besar
ertinya di sisi mereka. Mereka memerlukan kita membelai mereka sebagaimana doktor membelai pesakitnya yang datang mengadu sakit minta diubati. Mereka tidak minta di belai berjam-jam. Kalau lebihpun, hanya lebih sikit daripada doktor aje.

TAK SAMPAI LIMA MINIT PUN.

Kita kena jadi doktor yang pertama dulu. Bila nampak dia terbaring atau duduk yang menggambarkan dia sedang sakit. Maka, hendaklah terus mengadapnya sebaik saja kita masuk ke rumah. . Bila tanya pada anak, "Emak mana?" Anak jawab, "Dalam bilik ". Maka kita hendaklah terus ke bilik dengan beg brief case sekali. Dan belailah bagaimana doktor membelai pesakitnya. Dapatkan suhu badannya walaupun dia tak demam -letaklah tangan di dahinya atau tengkoknya.

Peganglah lengannya untuk mengira denyutan jantungnya walaupun kita tak tahu kadar yang menunjukkan dia tu memang sakit. Dengarlah bunyi paru-parunya bila dia bernafas dengan meletakkan tapak tangan kita di belakangnya dan urut sedikit walaupun kita tidak menggunakan alat yang doktor guna itu. Tak pun... paling tidak...letakkan kain basah kat dahinya... tanya dah makan ubat ker belum... nak dihantarkan ke kelinik ker..

Sentuhan-sentuhan begini sudah cukup untuk menyembuh psikologinya. Tanyalah dia bila dia kena demam... dsb supaya dia luahkan penyakit psikologinya dulu dengan menceritakan puncanya dan offer cepat-cepat nak bawa ke klinik agar dia boleh berfikir dan menilai tahap sakitnya....

Peringatan untuk wanita

Hai para wanita, air dalam botol plastik di dlm Kereta Anda, sangatlah berbahaya!!! !

Dengan cara inilah Sheryl Crow mengalami kanser payudara. Dia tampil di acara Ellen Show dan mengatakan hal yang sama persis. Hal ini telah diidentifikasikan sebagai penyebab paling utama pada kanser payudara, terutama di Australia ...

Seorang teman yang ibunya didiagnosa mengidap kanser payudara baru-baru ini.
Doktor berkata : wanita tidak boleh meminum minuman yang sudah lama berada di dalam Kereta.

Doktor berkata bahwa hawa panas yang memanaskan bahan plastik dalam botol memiliki bahan kimia tertentu yang dapat menyebabkan kanser payudara. Jadi tolong berhati-hatilah dan jangan minum air dalam botol plastik yang sudah ditinggalkan di dalam Kereta, dan kirimkan ke teman-teman wanita Anda.

Informasi seperti ini sangatlah kita perlukan dan kita harus berhati-hati, dan mungkin akan menyelamatkan hidup kita. Hawa panas dapat menyebabkan toksin/racun dari plastik menjadi bocor dan bercampur dengan air dan mereka telah menemukan racun
ini pada jaringan payudara. Sebisa mungkin gunakan gelas stainless steel atau botol kaca.

Biarlah semua orang yang mempunyai isteri atau teman wanita atau anak perempuan mengetahui ini semua.

Heart Attack

A serious note about heart attacks
HEART ATTACK PROCEDURE: (THIS IS NOT A JOKE!)
Women should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting. Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line. You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack. Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms. Sixty percent of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know the better chance we could survive...

A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this mail sends it to 10 people, you can be sure that we'll save at least one life. Read this...It could save your life!!

Let's say it's 6.15 pm and you're driving home. Suddenly you start experiencing severe pain in your chest that starts to radiate out into your arm and up into your jaw. You are only about five miles from the hospital nearest your home. Unfortunately you don't know if you'll be able to make it that far. You have been trained in CPR, but the guy that taught the course did not tell you how to perform it on yourself.

'HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN ALONE':

Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack, without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness.

However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest.

A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again.

Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm. This allows the heart attack victim to get to a hospital.


Tell as many people as possible about this. It could save their lives!!

Cancer Update

AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE ONLY WAY TO TRY (TRY IS THE KEY WORD) AND ELIMINATE CANCER, JOHN HOPKINS IS FINALLY STARTING TO TELL YOU THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE WAY.

1. Every person has cancer cells in the body.These cancer cells do not Show up in the standard tests until they have multiplied to a few Billion. When doctors tell cancer patients that there are no more Cancer cells in their bodies after treatment, it just means the tests Are unable to detect the cancer cells because they have not reached The detectable size.

2. Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person's lifetime.

3. When the person's immune system is strong the cancer cells will be Destroyed and prevented from multiplying and forming tumors.

4. When a person has cancer it indicates the person has multiple Nutritional deficiencies. These could be due to genetic, Environmental, food and lifestyle factors.

5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing diet And including supplements will strengthen the immune system.

6. Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly growing cancer cells And also destroys rapidly-growing healthy cells in the bone marrow, Gastro-intestinal tract etc, and can cause organ damage, like liver, Kidneys, heart, lungs etc.

7. Radiation while destroying cancer cells also burns, scars and Damages healthy cells, tissues and organs.

8. Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will often reduce Tumor size. However prolonged use of chemotherapy and radiation do Not result in more tumor destruction.

9. When the body has too much toxic burden from chemotherapy and Radiation the immune system is either compromised or destroyed, hence The person can succumb to various kinds of infections and Complications.

10. Chemotherapy and radiation can cause cancer cells to mutate and Become resistant and difficult to destroy. Surgery can also cause cancer cells to spread to other sites.

11. An effective way to battle cancer is to starve the cancer cells by Not feeding it with the foods it needs to multiply.


...CANCER CELLS FEED ON:
...A. Sugar, is a cancer-feeder.

...By cutting off sugar it cuts off one important food supply to the
...Cancer cells. Sugar substitutes like Nutrasweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc
...Are made with Aspartame and it is harmful.. A better natural
...Substitute would be Manuka honey or molasses but only in very small
...Amounts. Table salt has a chemical added to make it white in colour.
...Better alternative is Bragg's aminos or sea salt. ( THE WEST MADE US
...CHANGE FROM SEA TO WHITE IODISED SALT )

...B. Milk causes the body to produce mucus, especially in the
...Gastro-intestinal tract. Cancer feeds on mucus .

...By cutting off milk and substituting with unsweetened soya milk cancer
...Cells are being starved.

...C. Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment.

...A meat-based diet is acidic and it is best to eat fish, and a little
...Chicken rather than beef or pork. Meat also contains livestock
...Antibiotics, growth hormones and parasites, which are all
...Harmful,especially to people with cancer.

...D. A diet made of 80% fresh vegetables and juice, whole grains, seeds,
...Nuts and a little fruits help put the body into an alkaline Environment.
...About 20% can be from cooked food including beans. Fresh vegetable
...Juices provide live enzymes that are easily absorbed
...And reach down to cellular levels within 15 minutes to nourish and
...Enhance growth of healthy cells. To obtain live enzymes for
...Building healthy cells try and drink fresh vegetable juice (most
...Vegetables including bean sprouts) and eat some raw vegetables 2 or 3
...Times a day. Enzymes are destroyed at temperatures of 104 degrees F
...(40 degrees C).

...E. Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high caffeine.

...Green tea is a better alternative and has cancer-fighting properties.
...Water- best to drink purified water, or filtered, to avoid known
...Toxins and heavy metals in tap water. Distilled water is acidic, avoid It.


12. Meat protein is difficult to digest and requires a lot of Digestive enzymes. Undigested meat remaining in the intestines become Putrified and leads to more toxic buildup.

13. Cancer cell walls have a tough protein covering. By refraining From or eating less meat it frees more enzymes to attack the protein Walls of cancer cells and allows the body's killer cells to destroy The cancer cells.

14. Some supplements build up the immune system (IP6, Flor Ssence, Essiac, anti-oxidants, vitamins,minerals, EFAs etc.) to enable The body's own killer cells to destroy cancer cells. Other supplements like vitamin E are known to cause apoptosis, or programmed cell death, the body's normal method of disposing of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded cells.

15. Cancer is a disease of the mind, body and spirit. A proactive and positive spirit will help the cancer warrior be a survivor. Anger, unforgiveness and bitterness put the body into a stressful and acidic environment. Learn to have a loving and forgiving spirit. Learn to relax and enjoy life.

16. Cancer cells cannot thrive in an oxygenated environment. Exercising daily, and deep breathing help to get more oxygen down to the cellular level. Oxygen therapy is another means employed to destroy cancer cells.

PLEASE READ ON
1. No plastic containers in micro.
2. No water bottles in freezer.
3. No plastic wrap in microwave.

Johns Hopkins has recently sent this out in its newsletters. This information is being circulated at Walter Reed Army Medical Center as well. Dioxin chemicals causes cancer, especially breast cancer.

Dioxins are highly poisonous to the cells of our bodies. Don't freeze your plastic bottles with water in them as this releases dioxins from the plastic. Recently, Dr. Edward Fujimoto, Wellness Program Manager at Castle Hospital was on a TV program to explain this health hazard.

He talked about dioxins and how bad they are for us. He said that we should not be heating our food in the microwave using plastic containers. This especially applies to foods that contain fat.

He said that the combination of fat, high heat, and plastics releases dioxin into the food and ultimately into the cells of the body. Instead, he recommends using glass, such as CorningWare, Pyrex or ceramic containers for heating food.

You get the same results, only without the dioxin. So such things as TV dinners, instant ramen and soups, etc., should be removed from the container and heated in something else. Paper isn't bad but you don't know what is in the paper. It's just safer to use tempered glass, Corning Ware, etc. He reminded us that a while ago some of the fast food restaurants moved away from the foam containers to paper. The dioxin problem is one of the reasons.

Also, he pointed out that plastic wrap, such as Saran, is just as dangerous when placed over foods to be cooked in the microwave. As the food is nuked, the high heat causes poisonous toxins to actually melt out of the plastic wrap and drip into the food. Cover food with a paper towel instead.

This is an article that should be sent to all in your life,

I am doing so now.

Microscopic Images from Inside the Human Body

Get up close and personal with your innards with these 15 amazing 3D-body shots. Almost all of the following images were captured using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), a type of electron microscope that uses a beam of high-energy electrons to scan surfaces of images. The electron beam of the SEM interacts with atoms near or at the surface of the sample to be viewed, resulting in a very high-resolution, 3D-image. Magnification levels range from x 25 (about the same as a hand lens) to about x 250,000. Incredible details of 1 to 5 nm in size can be detected.

Max Knoll was the first person to create an SEM image of silicone steel in 1935; over the next 30 years, a number of scientists worked to further develop the instrument, and in 1965 the first SEM was delivered to DuPont by the Cambridge Instrument Company as the “Stereoscan.”

Here you’ll experience the power of SEM in a journey of self-discovery that starts in your head, travels down through the chest and ends in the bowels of the abdomen. Along the way, you’ll see what’s normal, what happens when cells are twisted by cancer and what it looks like when an egg meets sperm for the first time. You’ll never see yourself the same way again.

1. Red blood cells



They look like little cinnamon candies here, but they’re actually the most common type of blood cell in the human body - red blood cells (RBCs). These biconcave-shaped cells have the tall task of carrying oxygen to our entire body; in women there are about 4 to 5 million RBCs per micro liter (cubic millimeter) of blood and about 5 to 6 million in men. People who live at higher altitudes have even more RBCs because of the low oxygen levels in their environment.

2. Split end of human hair



Regular trimmings to your hair and good conditioner should help to prevent this unsightly picture of a split end of a human hair.

3. Purkinje neurons



Of the 100 billion neurons in your brain, Purkinje neurons are some of the largest. Among other things, these cells are the masters of motor coordination in the cerebellar cortex. Toxic exposure such as alcohol and lithium, autoimmune diseases, genetic mutations including autism and neurodegenerative diseases can negatively affect human Purkinje cells.

4. Hair cell in the ear



Here’s what it looks like to see a close-up of human hair cell stereocilia inside the ear. These detect mechanical movement in response to sound vibrations.

5. Blood vessels emerging from the optic nerve



In this image, stained retinal blood vessels are shown to emerge from the black-colored optic disc. The optic disc is a blind spot because no light receptor cells are present in this area of the retina where the optic nerve and retinal blood vessels leave the back of the eye.

6. Tongue with taste bud



This color-enhanced image depicts a taste bud on the tongue. The human tongue has about 10,000 taste buds that are involved with detecting salty, sour, bitter, sweet and savory taste perceptions.

7. Tooth plaque


Brush your teeth often because this is what the surface of a tooth with a form of “corn-on-the-cob” plaque looks like.

8. Blood clot



Remember that picture of the nice, uniform shapes of red blood cells you just looked at? Well, here’s what it looks like when those same cells get caught up in the sticky web of a blood clot. The cell in the middle is a white blood cell.

9. Alveoli in the lung



This is what a color-enhanced image of the inner surface of your lung looks like. The hollow cavities are alveoli; this is where gas exchange occurs with the blood.

10. Lung cancer cells



This image of warped lung cancer cells is in stark contrast to the healthy lung in the previous picture.

11. Villi of small intestine



Villi in the small intestine increase the surface area of the gut, which helps in the absorption of food. Look closely and you’ll see some food stuck in one of the crevices.

12. Human egg with coronal cells



This image is of a purple, color-enhanced human egg sitting on a pin. The egg is coated with the zona pellicuda, a glycoprotein that protects the egg but also helps to trap and bind sperm. Two coronal cells are attached to the zona pellicuda.

13. Sperm on the surface of a human egg



Here’s a close-up of a number of sperm trying to fertilize an egg.

14. Human embryo and sperm



It looks like the world at war, but it’s actually five days after the fertilization of an egg, with some remaining sperm cells still sticking around. This fluorescent image was captured using a confocal microscope. The embryo and sperm cell nuclei are stained purple while sperm tails are green. The blue areas are gap junctions, which form connections between the cells.

15. Colored image of a 6 day old human embryo implanting



And the cycle of life begins again: this 6 day old human embryo is beginning to implant into the endometrium, the lining of the uterus.

7 DONT'S after a meal

*Don't smoke
- Experiment from experts proves that smoking a cigarette after meal is comparable to smoking 10 cigarettes (chances of cancer is higher).

*Don't eat fruits immediately
- Immediately eating fruits after meals will cause stomach to be bloated with air. Therefore take fruit 1-2 hr after meal or 1hr before meal.

*Don't drink tea
- Because tea leaves contain a high content of acid. This substance will cause the Protein content in the food we consume to be hardened thus difficult to digest.

*Don't loosen your belt - Loosening the belt after a meal will easily cause the intestine to be twisted & blocked.

*Don't bathe
- Bathing will cause the increase of blood flow to the hands, legs & body thus the amount of blood around the stomach will therefore decrease. This will weaken the digestive system in our stomach.

*Don't walk about
- People always say that after a meal walk a hundred steps and you will live till 99. In actual fact this is not true. Walking will cause the digestive system to be unable to absorb the nutrition from the food we intake.

*Don't sleep immediately
- The food we intake will not be able to digest properly. Thus will lead to gastric & infection in our intestine.

EMERGENCY MEASURES!!!

Aspirin ~ most or all of you have read this but it is a good reminder. I had not heard the part about not lying down. I have never heard the part about the pain on the CHIN! That is new to me too!

Save lives
...It is important to always have ASPIRIN in the home!!!

Why have Aspirin by your bedside ?

ABOUT HEART ATTACKS
There are other symptoms of an heart attack besides the pain on the left arm.

One must also be aware of an intense pain on the chin, as well as nausea and lots of sweating, however these symptoms may also occur less frequently.

NOTE : There may be no pain in the chest during an heart attack.

The majority of people (about 60%) who had a heart attack during their sleep, did not wake up. However, if it occurs, the chest pain may wake you up from your deep sleep.


If that happens, IMMEDIATELY DISSOLVE TWO ASPIRINS IN YOUR MOUTH and swallow them with a bit of water.


Afterwards, phone a neighbor or a family member who lives very close by and state "HEART ATTACK!!!" and that you have taken 2 ASPIRINS.
Take a seat on a chair or sofa and wait for their arrival and ...

DO NOT LIE DOWN !!!

A Cardiologist has stated that, if each person, after receiving this e-mail, sends it to 10 people, probably a life can be saved!

I have already shared the information!!! What about you? Forward this message : IT MAY SAVE LIVES !!! !!!

God's Pharmacy

A friend sent this to me. It has been said that God first separated the salt water from the fresh, made dry land, planted a garden, made animals and fish, all before making a human. He made and provided what we'd need before we were born. These are best and more powerful when eaten raw. We're such slow learners...

God left us great clues as to what foods help what part of our body!

God's Pharmacy! Amazing!

A sliced Carrot looks like the human eye. The pupil, iris and radiating lines look just like the human eye, and YES, science now shows carrots greatly enhance blood flow to and function of the eyes.

A Tomato has four chambers and is red. The heart has four chambers and is red. All of the research shows tomatoes are loaded with lycopine and are indeed pure heart and blood food.

Grapes hang in a cluster that has the shape of the heart. Each grape looks like a blood cell and all of the research today shows grapes are also profound heart and blood vitalizing food.

A Walnut looks like a little brain, a left and right hemisphere, upper cerebrums and lower cerebellums. Even the wrinkles or folds on the nut are just like the neo-cortex. We now know walnuts help develop more than three (3) dozen neuron-transmitters for brain function.

Kidney Beans actually heal and help maintain kidney function and yes, they look exactly like the human kidneys.
Celery, Bok Choy, Rhubarb and many more look just like bones. These foods specifically target bone strength. Bones are 23% sodium and these foods are 23% sodium.

Avocadoes, Eggplant and Pears target the health and function of the womb and cervix of the female - they look just like these organs.. Today's research shows that when a woman eats one avocado a week, it balances hormones, sheds unwanted birth weight, and prevents cervical cancers. And how profound is this? It takes exactly nine (9) mont hs to grow an avocado from blossom to ripened fruit. There are over 14,000 photolytic chemical constituents of nutrition in each one of these foods (modern science has only studied and named about 141 of them).

STROKE: Remember The 1st Three Letters... S.T.R.
My friend sent this to me and encouraged me to post it and spread the word. I agree. If everyone can remember something this simple, we could save some folks.

STROKE IDENTIFICATION:
During a party, a friend stumbled and took a little fall - she assured everyone that she was fine and just tripped over a brick because of her new shoes. (they offered to call ambulance)

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 evening. Ingrid's husband called later telling everyone that his wife had been taken to the hospital - (at 6:00pm, Ingrid passed away.)

She had suffered a stroke at the party. 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...

STROKE IDENTIFICATION:

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

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 * = TALK. Ask the person to SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently) (eg '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 the ambulance and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher.

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

A prominent 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.
