This makes sense .. The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals not cold water. Maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating!!! Nothing to lose, everything to gain...
For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you.
It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion.
Once this'sludge'reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine.
Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.
A serious note about heart attacks:
· 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.
· 60% 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...

BANANA -Very interesting FACTS
Never, put your banana in the refrigerator!!!¬...
This is interesting. After reading this, you'll never look at a banana in the same way again.
Bananas contain three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy.
Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world's leading athletes.
But energy isn't the only way a banana can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.
DEPRESSION:
According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.
PMS:
Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.
ANEMIA:
High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL:
Many other cultures see bananas as a 'cooling' fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. In Thailand , for example, pregnant women eat bananas to ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.
So, a banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare it to an apple, it has FOUR TIMES the protein, TWICE the carbohydrate, THREE TIMES the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals.. It is also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around So maybe its time to change that well-known phrase so that we say, 'A BANANA a day keeps the doctor away!'
PS: Bananas must be the reason monkeys are so happy all the time!

Fenugreek gums was not used in industries till 1990 but after that fenugreek had dual use by removing the spice and other components and separate the unique galactomannan which is also known as fenugreek gum powder/Fenufibre to be used in the industries.
Currently fenugreek gum is having high demand as it is having considerable amount of applications in industries.
Moreover, in India fenugreek is used as a spice as well as in medicines also.
Properties of Fenugreek Gum Powder/Fenufibre
The fenugreek gum powder/Fenufibre is tasteless and odourless.
It contains galactomannan which is a polysaccharide made of galactose combined with mannan, high molecular compound of mannose.
Galactomannan has the property of viscosity which can convert milk into ice cream, cocoa into chocolate and when dissolved in water it forms gum.
The ratio of galactose to mannose for fenugreek is 1:1 when compared to guar gum and locust bean gum having ratio of 1:2 and 1:4 respectively, it can be found that fenugreek gum powder/Fenufibre contains more galactose and so has superior solubility as well as dispersiveness which results to forming of stable colloid for a longer period of time.
As Mannan is hydrophobic, it is completely insoluble in water. But, as fenugreek gum powder/Fenufibre is the combination of galactose which is hydrophilic and mannan which is hydrophobic, fenugreek gum is surface active. It means that fenugreek gum powder is an emulsifier which can mix water and oil.
Thus, fenugreek gum works as a gum and an emulsifier both which has enabled its use as a stabilizer for food. Compared to other conventional gums like guar gum and locust bean gum, fenugreek gum/Fenufibre has superior characteristics and so is used in many industries.

Health benefits of cinnamon (dalchini)
Cinnamon or dalchini is a staple addition to curries, pulav and biryani, but did you ever think that that tiny little bark could protect you from a host of illnesses right from cancer to cough and cold?
Well, it sure can. Here are the top ten health benefits of cinnamon:
Helps keep diabetes under check: According to a study published in the Diabetes Care Journal, cinnamon was a highly effective remedy against diabetes, especially type 2 diabetes.
The study stated that the spice has the ability to improve one’s glucose levels and lipid levels by activating his/her insulin receptors.
It also reduces the total serum glucose, triglycerides and the total cholesterol of a person since it stimulates the enzyme systems that regulate one’s carbohydrate metabolism.
Cinnamon also has amazing vasodialatory properties that help beat the risk of cardiovascular disease – a common condition seen in diabetics.
Tip: Cinnamon tea is one of the most beneficial methods to beat diabetes.
To make the tea, boil cinnamon in water for 15 minutes.
The water will turn brown in colour, strain the liquid and drink.
To add flavor you could add a few leaves of tulsi while boiling and add a spoon of honey for sweetness.
Keep sipping on this tea throughout the day.
Can help delay the onset of Alzheimer’s:
A study conducted at the Tel Aviv University found that the extract of cinnamon, when administered on a daily basis to patients with Alzheimer’s improved their longevity and bettered the loco-motor defects they experience once afflicted with the disease.
Cinnamon extract also known as CEppt, inhibits tau aggregation (tau is a type of protein that aggregates around that part of the nerves that is responsible for transmitting impulses of the brain) and filament formation (a process that is thought to be due to the accumulation of tau protein) which in turn protects the brain from the onset of Alzheimer’s and can also help in slowing down the progression of the disease.
Tip:
To help protect you from disease, have a teaspoon of freshly ground cinnamon with a little bit of honey.
Have this every day on an empty stomach.
If you find this mixture too pungent, try having it as tea.
Helps protect you from cancer:
In a study done by the USDA (United States Agricultural Department), it was found that cinnamon extract was a potent weapon against leukaemia and lymphomas.
The study found that the extract worked by blocking the path of certain components that were important for the regeneration of the cell, inhabited the further multiplication of cancerous cells, and slowly reduced their spread.
It also found that the higher the amount of extract the better the results.
Remarkably, the extract only inhibited the growth of unhealthy cells and left the healthy cells untouched unlike conventional therapies like chemotherapy, etc.

You can place a soft muslin cloth on the paste to keep the paste wet for longer.
Helps in digestion:
Cinnamon is packed with mineral manganese, fibre, essential oils and calcium.
The calcium and fibre combine with bile salts and help in their transport outside the body.
The essential oils, help regulate the action of gastric juices on food, improves digestion, assimilation and its anti inflammatory properties helps reduce the inflammation caused due to indigestion, Irritable Bowel Syndrome and ulcers.
Moreover the fibre content helps to relieve constipation and diarrhoea.

Alternatively you could add cinnamon powder to your meal by sprinkling it on your salad, coffee or other foods.
Helps beat acne:
Cinnamon is a common spice and flavouring agent but the essential oil it contains also has strong anti-microbial properties.
The water activity of honey is very low and this means that it does not contain a lot of moisture which can promote the growth of microorganisms.
Considering that pimples often arise from an infection within the pores of the skin, combining cinnamon with honey is an effective remedy.
Tip:
Crush a little cinnamon, and add a bit of honey to make it into a paste.
Now apply it on the pimple and leave for a few minutes.
You can leave it on overnight also for added benefit.
Wash off the paste with warm water and watch that pimple vanish.

It should be warm.
This solution will not only soothe an irritated throat, it will also clear up the blocked nasal passage and sinuses.
Beats heart disease and atherosclerosis:
Packed with fibre and calcium, cinnamon is great for the heart.
Since the fibre and calcium and help transport bile salts outside the body, the body produces more bile salts for other bodily functions by breaking down cholesterol.
This directly translates to lower cholesterol levels which protect the heart from blockages and the arteries from atherosclerosis.

Scientific basis behind LWMDR.What is actually Long Wheat.How it works in certain medical conditions including Diabetes.
At the out set it is necessary to explain what is Long Wheat.There appears no grain called Long Wheat in agricultural terminology.So name Long Wheat is the name given by the protagonist of this particular diet regimen.So what is this so called Long Wheat?Actually it is a variety of ANCIENT GRASS WHEAT domesticated (as per history) 12000 yrs.back near modern day Turkey.It is a hybrid variety,hybridization occurring before domestication .It still grows in wild and is also cultivated.Because of low yield it's cultivation is limited,but in recent times it's cultivation is picking up due to its nutritional and medicinal value.It is also grown in India in Maharastra,Andhra Pradesh and parts of Tamil Nadu.This wheat is commonly known as EMMER WHEAT.When it is harvested it is graded as LONG,Medium and cracked.It is a suggested by most people to use LONG,hence perhaps called Long Wheat.
Nutritional Value-- It is a whole grain that is an excellent source of Complex Carbohydrate.This carbohydrate of Emmer is different.It is called Cyanogenic Glucoside, which has been found to stimulate Immune System,lower Cholesterol AND help maintain Blood Sugar levels.Additionally EmmerWheat contains Twice the Fiber and Protein than the normal modern wheat which we eat.It is a Complete Protein diet when combined with legumes due very high protein content.While Emmer does contain gluten, the gluten molecules are weaker than the modern wheat making it easily digestible.
In addition to vitamins, minerals specially Magnesium and niacin and Iron,it is rich in Anti Oxidants,and Phytonutrients.These phytonutrients when combine with Choline has shown to prevent or reduce Stress Induced Inflammation which is a factor in development of CAD and Diabetes.
Here I quote an extract from an article by Dr.R.R.Hanchinal,Vice Chancellor,University of Agricultural Sciences,Dhawar, published on 23rd. Feb 2011.
"Emmer Wheat commonly known as Khapli, is found to have curative properties for treating diabetes and Cardio vascular diseases.Its capacity to Lower Blood Glucose and lipid levels and high temperature stress tolerance compared to other cultivated species make it therapeutic .The products of this variety are softer,tasty and have high Satiety value.These nutritional and functional qualities make Emmer Wheat more suitable as therapeutic food."
We have all heard it somewhere or the other that drinking warm water with the juice of one lemon, is beneficial for health. Here is delving into the reasons...
Helps your digestive system
Warm lime water on an empty stomach early in the morning helps stimulate the gastrointestinal tract. Digestion improves, heartburn is reduced and it helps in the process of elimination.
Detoxifies liver
Lemon juice has citric acid, which helps the enzymes to function better. It also stimulates the liver and aids in detoxification.
Works on your pH level
The acidity in our body can be harmful and lemon water can help reduce this. Though lemon has citric acid, the nutrients and minerals in it are alkaline in nature. Citric acid is not a strong acid and so, is easily removed from our bodies by elimination processes like perspiration. Lemon, however, stimulates the formation of calcium carbonate that neutralises other strong acids in the body. This is helpful, especially if your diet is heavy in proteins like meat and cheese. Experts say lemon can help change the pH balance of the blood and can also help in dealing with urinary tract infections.
Strengthens your immune system
All citrus foods are a storehouse of vitamin C. This vitamin is known to fight colds and is good for your immune system. Lemons also have potassium, which stimulates brain and nerve function and controls blood pressure.
Clears and freshens your skin
Experts say that vitamin C is great for youthful skin, because it helps in the production of collagen. Its antioxidants revive dull skin and keep it healthy. Warm lemon water removes toxins from the blood stream. Also, diluted lemon juice, when applied to blemishes, can actually help lighten them.
Battles bad breath
Lemon juice battles bad breath by keeping bacteria away.
Aids in weight loss
Lemon juice in the morning fights food craving. Also, it has been found earlier that people who maintain an alkaline diet tend to lose weight more quickly than others.
Do not overdo the lemon bit
Do not overdo the lemon. Just because one lemon helped you lose two kilos, squeezing four in your juice will not help you lose eight! Lemon has corrosive properties too and your tooth enamel may suffer.
Note to remember:
Adding a little honey to your lemon juice makes it more palatable and also battles phlegm and helps rid your body of mucous.
Never:
Use bottled lemon juice. Only the natural lemon is beneficial.
Always:
Rinse your mouth with plain water after you drink lemon juice.
