The power of choice, I choose to be strong , I choose to be positive & not to repeat negative orders, I choose success, I choose to have answers...

The strength in me is the ability to still stand up against all odds, face life challenges bravely & not to cry when in pain/sufferings.. this is me!

A strong lovely mother, a woman of her taste... will always mould her family to her desire...

A strong woman....

Lifting women to better health... starts from the house, the family...

How strong a woman are you? How strong a person are you? How strong a mother are you?

Never go against mother nature... we will need to pay a heavy price for it if we go to extreme...

We are bought at a price....

10 good reasons to eat right. 'Healthy eating' perhaps is the most frequent topic that am writing. Why? Cos am really concerned about YOUR HEALTH...

Yes, it is always healthy eating that am always emphasizing here. Why is it so?

[1] A healthy eating habit will make a person grow healthy and glow..

[2] A healthy eating habit can prevent obesity and modern illnesses such as high blood pressure, diabetes, osteoporosis, high uric acids, high cholesterol, high fats, cancer or heart attack.

[3] A healthy balanced diet can prevent many deficiencies such as scurvy, anemia, beri-beri, night blindness, rickets, soft teeth and bones, osteoporosis and many others

[4] A healthy balanced diet can put most diseases at bay

[5] A healthy balanced diet will make a person more confident of himself, thus smarter and more intelligent than those with frail body frame, mind or emotion...

[6] A healthy balanced diet will boost his or her immune system

[7] A healthy diet will too prevent colon disorders, digestive disorders and many more

[8] A healthy diet will be anti-aging, anti-stressing, life enhancing, life prolonging, life sustaining and best of all, less sufferings, less pains, less worries...

[9] A healthy diet will also cut down professional health care and health bills

[10] A healthy diet will not only maintain our health but only can repair our body by itself...

Here are enough reasons on why am emphasizing all about healthy eating. Prevention is so much more important than cure. If it can just start from controlling what we can eat or not eat, isn't it easy?

It is the tao of eating...

We are what we eat, we are what we think who we are, we are who we feel we are, we are who we actually are.

Let natural foods be our medicine and medicine be our natural foods. Balancing is a skill, but learning do not need too much skill. Just a click of your mouse and you will be easily reading all possible health knowledge and food or drinks that one need to prevent.

Thus one must understand the fuel we feed into our mouth are not all the time categorized delicious, but it should be nutritious and healthy. It should be of great advantage to our body not just to please our palate.

The power of choice is still yours but it is all each of our responsibilities to keep ourselves as healthy as possible. Don't join the crowd to line up for professional 'cut and stitch' ' saw and repair' or be swallowing medicines and pills, our main jobs at our old age.

Seeing is believing, learning is improving. This is the winning game that all of us have to heed so as to go for a healthier and happier you, now or in the near future....

For just any meats, 50 grams is just enough for a person a day... stick to it!

This is another treasure in the kitchen, not to be missed out...





















When we talk about pepper, we can refer to two separate parts of the pepper plant, the fruit, which is an edible herb, and the ground seed which is used as a spice. The fruit of the sweet pepper, which is large and hollow, is popular for adding color and flavor to salads and stir fry dishes. They are also popular for stuffing with a rice mixture and baked as ‘stuffed pepper.’

Then, there are hot peppers that may be eaten whole and used in many ‘hot’ dishes. Peppers ripen only on the vine. Most of them are grown in tropical countries and harvested once a year.

When we refer to pepper as the spice, we are talking about the familiar ground seeds that make the black pepper and white pepper that we have in our kitchens. White pepper is milder than black pepper. Each provides their own distinct character.

Garlic is one of the 4 treasures in the kitchen that can be daily consumed....It is a food herb full of goodness, safe and beneficial to our health...


















From my experience, I always introduce Nutrilite garlic which is an excellent food supplement for those with high cholesterol and sticky thick blood. It is a great blood thinner and 6 tablets is recommended for a day. It can be taken for about 3 weeks before taking 3 tablets a day. It is best taken with gingko-ginseng [2 tablets] and Lecithin E [3 to 6 tablets depending on the person's needs]. It works marvels for those with high blood pressure too.

All these are natural goodness... And with a revised health food pyramid and lifestyle, all of us can go for a U-turn to becoming a healthier and happier person. The result will be so delightful...

I recently created another blog on 'home education' and I strongly recommend it to all friends.... just click on http://homeeducation.blogspot.com

















Education starts even before we were born. Just being a few months old, we have been learning inside our mother's womb. And it will continue till the last breathe leave us. The important part of educating is rather on how to be a quality person than that to be a highly educated person.

The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world. We at an early stage are exposed to influences, good or bad, useful or useless, meaningful or meaningless and it is up to us to reproduce and use them in our own part. To become another great, positive, quality person as expected to be...
