Nutritional Facts

It is actually not a wishful thinking to live over 100 years old. There were about 58,820 centenarians (people who are 100 years old or older) in Japan in 2014. According to a U.S. Census Bureau report released in 2014, there were about 55,000 centenarians in the U.S. In today's society, how many people really die of old age? Many people actually die from diseases, such as cancer, heart disease & diabetes, instead of old age hence to live more than 100 years old, the key is in disease prevention . Eating a balanced diet, exercising moderately, keeping a positive outlook on life & building a solid foundation for one's health from an early age can help in the defense against diseases & increase the possibility of living healthily for more than 100 years old.

It is a common case for children to catch HFMD virus from childcare - this is more frequent if the school is air-conditioned. I am actually quite prepared that my girl will catch this virus one day but when she caught the virus 2 weeks ago, it was devastating as her mouth is full of ulcer, the only symptom she has, which made her refuse to take any solid or liquid. But out of my surprise, within 2 days or so, she can eat and drink well & by the third day, she no longer complaint about her mouth being pained. At first, all of us thought that she might be heaty that caused her mouth to be full of ulcer until my husband was certified that he had HFMD - it must be spread to him when he took care of my girl on the second day after she was ill. It took my husband about 10 days to recover. I questioned myself: Why my girl recovered so fast while it took my husband so long? One of the possibility is that I give my girl E. Excel products almost everyday prior to her illness that have even...

As mentioned in some of my earlier posts, vegetable & fruit intakes are very important in nourishing our immune system with the necessary disease-fighting nutrients such as  polysaccharides, p hytochemicals & a ntioxidants etc. Have you wonder how to take different varieties of vegetables/fruits in our meals? I always make it a point to have lots of vegetable in my meal but it is so hard to get them when you had your meal outside (not mentioning the cost). How can we consume so much vegetables that is require in our daily meal? I started taking Vegecolor - it is a product that has 28 types of vegetables in it & in one sachet, there are more than 2 kgs of such vegetables in it. Hence it becomes convenient to consume vegetables anywhere. Why I say it is convenient? I have been preparing vegetables at home before going out to work & it takes up about 20 mins in preparing, washing, steaming etc to get the vegetables properly cook for consumption which is unnecessary...

Recent reseach from Sweden shows that consumption of milk will not only increase the risk of osteoporesis but also cause early death especially among women. In the video, you can see that in accordance to England Medical Journal, after surveying 61,000 female participants from age between 39 to 74 years old & 45,000 male participants from age between 45 to 79 years old over 20 years of intensive research. During this process of research, over 1 out of 5 participants had passed away & 22,000 participants suffer from bone fractures. Research states that, by drinking 3 cups of milk in comparison to females who drink less than 1 cup of milk daily, the death rate is 10 times more & hip fracture rates is 60% more while other bone fractures increases by 15% . Rate of death in males & bone fractures are not apparent in difference yet death rate is still highly influenced. This applies to all kinds of milk including full cream, low fat & skimmed milk but does not include f...

It is always better to prevent than cure. As it takes time for immune system to build up to fight against diseases, starting early to prevent diseases/illnesses to struck you by understanding the link between nutrition and the immune system. Do we ever wonder why cancer struck a healthy person easily? Or why do we see news that a healthy man who always runs marathon suddenly collapse? It has to do with the immune. Actually there are many signals that the body will give out to tell us that something is wrong with the immune system of the body but most people will just sweep this signal behind our mind till diseases/illnesses struck then we start to panic and find solution. By then, it maybe too late. Diseases have to break the immune system's line of defense before the body can succumb to them. Disease rates are rising because there is a lack of awareness about protecting our immune system and our exposure to factors that weaken our im unity such as environmental pollution, ...
