IMPORTANCE OF SLEEPING & WAKING UP EARLY!!!!!

Reasons for sleeping and waking up early.

Evening at 9 - 11pm: is the time for eliminating unnecessary/toxic chemicals (detoxification) from the antibody system (lymph nodes). This time duration should be spent by relaxing or listening to music. If during this time a housewife is still in an unrelaxed state such as washing the dishes or monitoring children doing their homework, this will have a negative impact on health.

Evening at 11pm - 1am: is the detoxification process in the liver, and ideally should be done in a deep sleep state.

Early morning 1 - 3am: detoxification process in the gall, also ideally done in a deep sleep state.

Early morning 3 - 5am : detoxification in the lungs. Therefore there will sometimes be a severe cough for cough sufferers during this time. Since the detoxification process had reached the respiratory tract, there is no need to take cough medicine so as not to interfere with toxin removal process.

Morning 5 - 7am: detoxification in the colon, you should empty your bowel.

Morning 7 - 9am: absorption of nutrients in the small intestine, you should be having breakfast at this time. Breakfast should be earlier, before 6:30am, for those who are sick. Breakfast before 7:30am is very beneficial to those wanting to stay fit. Those who always skip breakfast, they should change their habits, and it is still better to eat breakfast late until 9 - 10am rather than no meal at all.

Sleeping so late and waking up too late will disrupt the process of removing unnecessary chemicals. Aside from that, midnight to 4:00 am is the time when the bone marrow produces blood. Therefore, have a good sleep and don't sleep late.

TAKE CARE ABOUT YOUR HEALTH

Live Life Without Limits!

AND PASS THIS EMAIL TO WHOM YOU CARE

The top five cancer-causing foods are:

1. Hot dogs
Because they are high in nitrates, the Cancer Prevention Coalition advises that children eat no more than 12 hot dogs a month. If you can't live without hot dogs, buy those made without sodium nitrate.

2. Processed meats and bacon
Also high in the same sodium nitrates found in hot dogs, bacon, and other processed meats raise the risk of heart disease. The saturated fat in bacon also contributes to cancer.

3. Doughnuts
Doughnuts are cancer-causing double trouble. First, they are made with white flour, sugar, and hydrogenated oils, then fried at high temperatures. Doughnuts, says Adams , may be the worst food you can possibly eat to raise your risk of cancer.

4. French fries
Like doughnuts, French fries are made with hydrogenated oils and then fried at high temperatures. They also contain cancer- causing acryl amides which occur during the frying process. They should be called cancer fries, not French fries, said Adams .

5. Chips, crackers, and cookies
All are usually made with white flour and sugar. Even the ones whose labels claim to be free of trans-fats generally contain small amounts of trans-fats.


BRAIN DAMAGING HABITS

1. No Breakfast
People who do not take breakfast are going to have a lower blood sugar level.
This leads to an insufficient supply of nutrients to the brain causing brain degeneration.

2. Overeating
It causes hardening of the brain arteries, leading to a decrease in mental power.

3. Smoking
It causes multiple brain shrinkage and may lead to Alzheimer disease.

4. High Sugar consumption
Too much sugar will interrupt the absorption of proteins and nutrients causing malnutrition and may interfere with brain development.

5. Air Pollution
The brain is the largest oxygen consumer in our body. Inhaling polluted air decreases the supply of oxygen to the brain, bringing about a decrease in brain efficiency.

6. Sleep Deprivation
Sleep allows our brain to rest. Long term deprivation from sleep will accelerate the death of brain cells.

7. Head covered while sleeping
Sleeping with the head covered increases the concentration of carbon dioxide and decrease concentration of oxygen that may lead to brain damaging effects.

8. Working your brain during illness
Working hard or studying with sickness may lead to a decrease in effectiveness of the brain as well as damage the brain.

9. Lacking in stimulating thoughts
Thinking is the best way to train our brain, lacking in brain stimulation thoughts may cause brain shrinkage.

10. Talking Rarely
Intellectual conversations will promote the efficiency of the brain

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The main causes of liver damage are:

1. Sleeping too late and waking up too late are main cause.

2. Not urinating in the morning.

3. Too much eating.

4. Skipping breakfast.

5. Consuming too much medication.

6. Consuming too much preservatives, additives, food coloring, and artificial sweetener.

7. Consuming unhealthy cooking oil. As much as possible reduce cooking oil use when frying, which includes even the best cooking oils like olive oil. Do not consume fried foods when you are tired, except if the body is very fit.

8. Consuming raw (overly done) foods also add to the burden of liver.
Veggies should be eaten raw or cooked 3-5 parts. Fried veggies should be finished in one sitting, do not store.

We should prevent this without necessarily spending more. We just have to adopt a good daily lifestyle and eating habits. Maintaining good eating habits and time condition are very important for our bodies to absorb and get rid of unnecessary chemicals according to "schedule."

DO TAKE CARE ABOUT YOUR HEALTH.................

AND PASS THIS TO ALL WHOM YOU LOVE & CARE FOR. .....................

Warning About TILAPIA


Frightening Warning About Tilapia

If you eat fish, chances are you've recently eaten tilapia, one of the most highly consumed types of fish in the United States. You might want to change the menu.

Researchers from Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center have concluded that farm-raised tilapia--the kind typically sold in supermarkets- -contains very low levels of the beneficial omega-3 fatty acids and very high levels of the potentially dangerous omega-6 fatty acids.

How dangerous is it? Eating tilapia could be far worse for your heart health than eating a hamburger, doughnuts or even pork bacon!

The double whammy of low levels of omega-3 fatty acids and high levels of omega-6 fatty acids could be potentially dangerous for some people with heart disease, arthritis, asthma and other allergic and auto-immune diseases that are particularly vulnerable to an "exaggerated inflammatory response." Inflammation is known to cause damage to blood vessels, the heart, lung and joint tissues, skin and the digestive tract.
"In the United States, tilapia has shown the biggest gains in popularity among seafood, and this trend is expected to continue as consumption is projected to increase from 1.5 million tons in 2003 to 2.5 million tons by 2010," write the Wake Forest researchers in an article published in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association.

The team discovered that farm-raised tilapia, as well as farmed catfish, "have several fatty acid characteristics that would generally be considered by the scientific community as detrimental. " Tilapia has higher levels of potentially detrimental long-chain omega-6 fatty acids than 80-percent-lean hamburger, doughnuts and even pork bacon. "For individuals who are eating fish as a method to control inflammatory diseases such as heart disease, it is clear from these numbers that tilapia is not a good choice," the researchers write. "All other nutritional content aside, the inflammatory potential of hamburger and pork bacon is lower than the average serving of farmed tilapia."
The heart healthy benefits of omega-3 fatty acids, found in abundance in salmon and trout, have been well documented-- so much so that the American Heart Association recommends everyone eat at least two servings of fish a week. Just don't make one of those servings tilapia since it could actually do your body more harm than good.

How to check LPG cylinder expiration period (Safety first)

How to check your LPG cylinder's expiry date?

Very important information.

Most of us do not know this.

Expired Cylinders are not safe for use and may cause accidents. In this regard, please be cautious at the time of accepting any LPG cylinder from the vendor.

Here is how we can check the expiry of LPG cylinders:

On one of three side stems of the cylinder, the expiry date is coded alpha numerically as follows A or B or C or D and some two digit number following this e.g. "D06"



The alphabets stand for quarters -

A for March (First Qtr)

B for June (Second Qtr)

C for Sept (Third Qtr)

D for December (Fourth Qtr)



The digits stand for the year till it is valid.

Hence "D06" would mean December qtr of 2006.

Share this message with everyone you know, your kind cooperation will save lives of many people and create awareness among the public.

SAFETY FIRST!

Recycling can sometimes be the threat to your health and safety!

CKP is know at last - the man behind CPK168.com

CKP or willie fong is known at last , whose advice in his blog at CKP168.com are highly regarded since he is the one who supported Geograce mining or GEO at Philippine Stock Exchange and it indeed rise during the stock market boom of 2007. A lot of people earned and lost on this stock. But the sad news is that he is currently comatosed. Who will now help manage GEO ?

Willie Fong, a 51-year-old businessman who, like many in his profession, is nuts about basketball, was tapped some months ago by the national women’s junior basketball team for financial help.

The young cagebelles were scheduled to compete in the FIBA Asia Under 18 Championship for Women, scheduled Nov. 2 to 9 this year in Medan, Indonesia, and they needed additional support for the daunting task ahead.

Willie, a finance expert involved in the stock market, did not hesitate to help. He said he may not be in the Forbes list of the country’s 40 wealthiest, but he was willing to contribute in any way he can, like augmenting the players’ meager allowance and providing for their uniforms.

Willie didn’t mind if his contributions would be reciprocated or not. He said a mere “thank you” would be enough.

Still, to show the girls’ appreciation to Willie, a proposal to put a small logo of his company on the uniform was presented to the team manager.

When it was turned down, the sponsorship was no longer pursued since it would be unfair for Willie not to get any kind of exposure in return.

* * *

Very recently, the girls’ team again found themselves in dire need of Willie’s assistance.

But even before they could touch base with their would-be sponsor, they received word that Willie had been incommunicado for more than a week.

It was Mikee Romero who broke the news that Willie had been comatose since Sept. 28 and is now confined at the intensive care unit of the Cardinal Santos Hospital in Greenhills, San Juan City.

Mikee played basketball with Willie in various leagues and it was in one of the league games that Willie collapsed.

According to reports, Willie lost consciousness after playing competitive basketball for three straight days.

* * *

Former Sta. Lucia Realty head coach Adonis Tierra, now the coach of the CKP team owned by Willie, was with him when the incident occurred at the Xavier Gym in Greenhills the other Sunday.

Adonis said they carried Willie to a chair after he fell to the floor.

“He even managed to smile, that’s why we thought he was already okay,” Adonis related.

“But then he had another seizure and completely lost consciousness. We rushed him to the nearest hospital, the Cardinal Santos, which was less than five minutes away.”

* * *

Willie was already clinically dead when he reached the hospital. He had no pulse, no heartbeat, no blood pressure and the monitor plugged to him registered a flatline.

The emergency room staff immediately got into action. They gave him a shot of epinephrine, performed mouth-to-mouth resuscitation on him and pumped on his chest to revive him.

Faintly, the pulse returned and the heart started to beat again. Willie was alive again.

He continued to stay unconscious, though.

* * *

Last Monday, Adonis dropped by the hospital to visit Willie on his ninth day of confinement.

“Although he was unconscious, I greeted him with a loud voice, asking how he was,” Adonis said. “His hand moved when I held it and his mouth quivered as if he wanted to speak. His wife Maita said the doctors still couldn’t pinpoint the cause of the attack, although he complained of mild palpitations before the incident. She said they ruled out a stroke.”

And because the cause was unknown, no prognosis could be given either.

* * *

Willie’s CKP teams were very active in various leagues, which include the PICAA and the MBT (Metro Basketball Tournament).

Many former amateur standouts who are now in the professional league like Jason Castro, Beau Belga, Jeff Chan and Chad Alonso have played for CKP.
