Bananas... This is very interesting.

After Reading THIS, you'll NEVER look at a banana in the same way again -Bananas. Containing 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 haemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.Blood Pressure:This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it the perfect to beat blood pressure. So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit's ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.Brain Power:200 students at aTwickenham (Middlesex) school were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.Constipation:High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.Hangovers:One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system.Heartburn:Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.Morning Sickness:Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep bloodsugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.Mosquito bites:Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation.Nerves: Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system.Overweight and at work?Studies at the Institute of Psychology in Austria found pressure at work leads to gorging on comfort food like chocolate and crisps. Looking at 5,000 hospital patients, researchers found the most obese were more likely to be in high-pressure jobs. The report concluded that, to avoid panic-induced food cravings, we need to control our blood sugar levels by snacking on high carbohydrate foods every two hours to keep levels steady.Ulcers:The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disordersbecause of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in over-chronicler cases. It alsoneutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.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.Seasonal Affective Disorder(SAD): Bananas can help SAD sufferers because they contain the natural mood enhancer tryptophan.Smoking:Bananas can also help people trying to give up smoking.The B6, B12 they contain, as well as the potassium and magnesium found in them, help the body recover from the effects of nicotine withdrawal.Stress:Potassium is a vital mineral, which helps normalize the heartbeat,sends oxygen to the brain and regulates your body's water balance. When we are stressed, our metabolic rate rises, thereby reducing our potassium levels. These can be rebalanced with the help of a high-potassium banana snack.Strokes:According to research in "The New England Journal of Medicine,"eating bananas as part of a regular diet can cut the risk of death bystrokes by as much as 40%!Warts:Those keen on natural alternatives swear that if you want to kill offa wart, take a piece of banana skin and place it on the wart, with theyellow side out. Carefully hold the skin in place with a plaster or surgical tape!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!"PASS THIS ON TO ALL OF YOUR ON-LINE FRIENDS and FAMILYPS : Bananas must be the reason monkeys are so happy all the time!

AWAS!!!!! BABI DAN ALCOHOL DALAM KEHIDUPAN SEHARIAN KITA!

Ada dua product ni contain lemak babi. JAKIM ada hantar surat pada semua retailer supaya TUTUP tanda halal kat product tu. Productnya :

1. Dove - syampoo, cuci muka dsbnya.

2. Pringles - potato chips yang dalam tin panjang tu.. (Harap beritahu kengkawan yang lain )

3. KEPADA SEMUA PEMBACA MUSLIM SUPAYA BERHATI-HATI SEMASA MEMBELI LAICI DALAM TIN. KALAU MEMBELI, TELITI DAHULU NAMA PENGELUAR, PERHATIKAN LABEL MAKANAN DALAM TIN YANG TIDAK HALAL. RUPANYA ADA SATU JENAMA YANG MENGETIN BABI DAN JUGA MENGELUARKAN PRODUK LAICI DALAM TIN. PERHATIKAN JENAMA INI..`NARCISSUS` KALAU TAK PERCAYA BOLEH TENGOK KAT SUPERMARKET.TAPI RAMAI ORANG MUSLIM KITA KURANG PENGETAHUAN DAN KURANG BIJAKSANA SEMASA MEMBELI-BELAH. TAMBAH-TAMBAH KALAU BARANG TU MURAH. NTAH APA BENDA KANDUNGAN DALAM BARANG YANG DIBELI TU. HARAP BERINGAT SELALU SUPAYA DARAH DAGING KITA TIDAK MENGHALANG KITA BERIBADAT.PETIKAN DARI SUMBER YG DIPERCAYAI..Ini bukanlah hasil tulisan saya..cuma utk menyebarkan apa yg diketahui...

4. Coke Ada Alkohol.Saya memang tidak ragu perkara ini. Di universiti kami pernah membuat kajian kes berkenaan bagaimana menggunakan strategi pemasaran untuk menembusi pasaran antarabangsa.Buku yang diterbitkan oleh prentice hall (international marketing) membincangkan secara teliti berkenaan bgm kejayaan coca-cola mengadaptasikan produk untuk memasuki pasaran asia.Dinyatakan secara jelas di situ bahawa kandungan alcohol didalam coke yang berada di pasaran eropah dianggarkan 20%. bagi negara islam seperti malaysia, indonesia dll peratus alkohol ini dikurangkan kepada 5% dengan alasan untuk melepasi halangan agama tetapi tetap ia perlu diletakkan untuk mengekalkan rasa asli coke. W/bgpun ia ditulis sebagai bebas alkohol untuk melepasi halangan pasaran di negara tersebut.Untuk pengetahuan juga hanya coke yang dibuat dan dipasarkan di Arab Saudi dan Pakistan sahaja yang benar-benar bebas alkohol kerana halangan undang-undang di negara tersebut terlalu ketat.Perlu juga dinyatakan disini bahawa coke yang dijual bersama hidangan di restoran makanan segera ditambah kuantiti alkoholnya kepada 8%. Sebab itu jika anda merasa coke yang didapati di Mc Donald adalah lebih pahit dari yang dijual secara botol. Sebelum ini saya cuba menghebahkan kepada kawan-kawan tetapi selalunya ramai yang tidak percaya.Ini sebagai respone kepada kenyataan ini dan sebagai melepaskan tugas saya untuk memberitahu. Harap kita semua sedar. Sekian

5.COCA COLA beralkohol.Alkisah diceritakan, Ustaz mengkhabarkan pada para jemaah bahawa pihak JAIS telah mengesahkan bahawa minuman Coca-Cola memang ada mengandungi alkohol (banyak sikit bukan persoalan).Perkara ini mengingatkan kembali pada perkara yang sama semasa belajar kat negeri mat salehdimana pihak Coca-Cola mengesahkan secara bertulis memang ianya mengandungi Alkohol.Malangnya pihak JAIS tidak dapat menfatwakan perkara ini atas dasar & tekanan pihak-pihak tertentu, almaklum lahnegara Islam. Apa yang kakitangan JAIS yang berkesedaran mampu buat ialah dengan menyebarkan berita ini secara "diam-diam".

Insyallah, dapatlah kiranya berita ini dipanjang- panjangkan.-----------------"YA RABB!

Semanis-manis pemberianMu dalam kalbuku ialah perasaan harapku terhadapMu dan seenak-enak perkataan pada lidahku ialah memujiMu, sedang yang paling aku rindukan ialah saat berjumpa denganMu

Petua Kempiskan Perut

Ramai rakyat Malaysia kita ni mengalami perut buncit atau nama klasiknya boroi. Walaupun badan langsing anggun tapi perut sedikit ke depan (maju). Mungkin kerana banyak makan, mungkin juga kerana kurang buang angin.Kakak saya dapat petua dari rakan Indianya yang baru pulang dari Kerala (bercuti). Orang sana miskin dan tidak mampu untuk membeli produk kecantikkan. Kebanyakan mrk berbadan gempal ttp perut kempis atau tak sebuncit seperti kebanyakkan rakyat kita.

Rahsianya mudah. Mrk amalkan minum air rebusan jintan manis + halia. Amalkan setiap hari segelas pun memadai. Sesudu besar jintan manis + seinci halia yang telah dihiris. Rebus hingga menggelagak beberapa kali (10-15 minit). Biarkan suam dan minum. Dalam tempoh 4-6 bulan perut akan susut sendiri tanpa senaman. cubalah.

Mengikut kata kakak saya seminggu pertama amalkan minuman tanpa gula ini dia mengalami 'perang angin' sehingga terpaksa ke tandas untuk meredakan gerak gempur angin yang merusuh tu. Mentelah pula di Malaysia tiada tandas kedap bunyi, jadi kenalah tunggu orang tak ada baru keluar , takut malu org tahu siapa yang berbalas tembak tadi .. he he. Jadi kena fikir2 juga siapa nak cuba tu. Saya dah cuba secangkir.. rasanya tak sedap,rasa rempat. Tak per lah lain kali aja saya cuba .Lagi pun perut ni masih boleh bernafas lega Tak lah macam lukisan kartun mamak cyber di UM :)

Kakak saya dah cuba 2 bulan, nampak ketara kempisnya.Kalau tak nak zipkan seluar jeans pun siksa... Kawan dia kata kalau nak susut perut kaw-kaw (cepat), goreng garam kasar dan sapu pada perut sambil amalkan air jintan. Tak atau rasa melekit ker rasa apa.. sebab kawan dia tu pun tak cuba lagi petua garam tu..

Hasil memuaskan ,duit pun selamat. Selamat mencuba. Bila langsing perut tu nak solat pun mudah dan ringan. Itu yang penting.
