Out of gum or mints? Take a slice of cucumber
and press it to the roof of your mouth with your
tongue for 30 seconds to eliminate bad breath,
the phytochemical will kill the bacteria in your
mouth responsible for causing bad breath.
Remember that glass of milk you drank before
going to bed? Put it away. While it can lull you to
sleep, it can also be the very root of such
annoying sounds. Many people are not aware of
it, but dairy products, especially those made
from cow’s milk, can cause snoring problems. This
usually happens to those who are milk intolerant.
Dairy increases mucus production. When you’re
awake, you can simply blow or sneeze it away, but
when you sleep, the mucus just usually stays in
the mucus membrane area, leading to a buildup
in the throat and causing many respiratory
dilemmas. Anything that’s made from cow’s milk
can trigger snoring, so make sure you stay away
not only from milk but also from cheese, ice
cream and yogurt.

Chinese medicine associates different organs or

Thought this one is a good read...
Many deal with acne today and there are more
than one reason for it. Hormonal acne is more
cycstual. They are big, painful and never really
come to a head. Balancing progesterone really
helps this and NO the pill does not. Then you have
acne from skin care. It is important to find a
skin care line your skin does well with. Using
glycolic acid and Retin A is good for those with
congestion. Then you have break outs because of
organs. This chart shows where the organs are in
reference to where you are breaking out. Internal
body cleansing is important and if you have had
acne for some time, then you will need to cleanse
for several months.
Facts on Honey and Cinnamon:
It is found that a
mixture of honey and Cinnamon cures most diseases. Honey is produced in most of the
countries of the world. Scientists of today also
accept honey as a 'Ram Ban' (very effective)
medicine for all kinds of diseases. Honey can be
used without side effects for any kind of
diseases.
Today's science says that even though honey is
sweet, when it is taken in the right dosage as a
medicine, it does not harm even diabetic
patients. Researched by western scientists:
HEART DISEASES: Make a paste of honey and
cinnamon powder, apply it on bread instead of
jelly and jam and eat it regularly for breakfast.
It reduces the cholesterol in the arteries and
saves the patient from heart attack. Also, those
who have already had an attack, when they do
this process daily, they are kept miles away from
the next attack. Regular use of the above process
relieves loss of breath and strengthens the heart
beat. In America and Canada, various nursing
homes have treated patients successfully and
have found that as one ages the arteries and
veins lose their flexibility and get clogged; honey
and cinnamon revitalize the arteries and the
veins.
ARTHRITIS: Arthritis patients may take daily
(morning and night) one cup of hot water with
two tablespoons of honey and one small teaspoon
of cinnamon powder. When taken regularly even
chronic arthritis can be cured. In a recent
research conducted at the Copenhagen University,
it was found that when the doctors treated their
patients with a mixture of one tablespoon Honey
and half teaspoon Cinnamon powder before
breakfast, they found that within a week (out of
the 200 people so treated) practically 73 patients
were totally relieved of pain -- and within a
month, most all the patients who could not walk
or move around because of arthritis now started
walking without pain.
BLADDER INFECTIONS: Take two tablespoons of
cinnamon powder and one teaspoon of honey in a
glass of lukewarm water and drink it. It destroys
the germs in the bladder.
CHOLESTEROL: Two tablespoons of honey and three
teaspoons of Cinnamon Powder mixed in 16
ounces of tea water given to a cholesterol patient
was found to reduce the level of cholesterol in the
blood by 10 percent within two hours. As
mentioned for arthritic patients, when taken
three times a day, any chronic cholesterol is
cured. According to information received in the
said Journal, pure honey taken with food daily
relieves complaints of cholesterol.
COLDS: Those suffering from common or severe
colds should take one tablespoon lukewarm honey
with 1/4 spoon cinnamon powder daily for three
days. This process will cure most chronic cough,
cold, and, clear the sinuses.
UPSET STOMACH: Honey taken with cinnamon
powder cures stomach ache and also clears
stomach ulcers from its root.
GAS: According to the studies done in India and
Japan, it is revealed that when Honey is taken
with cinnamon powder the stomach is relieved of
gas.
IMMUNE SYSTEM: Daily use of honey and
cinnamon powder strengthens the immune system
and protects the body from bacterial and viral
attacks. Scientists have found that honey has
various vitamins and iron in large amounts.
Constant use of Honey strengthens the white blood
corpuscles (where DNA is contained) to fight
bacterial and viral diseases.
INDIGESTION: Cinnamon powder sprinkled on two
tablespoons of honey taken before food is eaten
relieves acidity and digests the heaviest of meals
INFLUENZA: A scientist in Spain has proved that
honey contains a natural 'Ingredient' which kills
the influenza germs and saves the patient from
flu.
LONGEVITY: Tea made with honey and cinnamon
powder, when taken regularly, arrests the
ravages of old age. Use four teaspoons of honey,
one teaspoon of cinnamon powder, and three
cups of boiling water to make a tea. Drink 1/4
cup, three to four times a day. It keeps the skin
fresh and soft and arrests old age. Life spans
increase and even a 100 year old will start
performing the chores of a 20-year-old.
RASPY OR SORE THROAT: When throat has a tickle
or is raspy, take one tablespoon of honey and sip
until gone. Repeat every three hours until throat
is without symptoms.
PIMPLES: Three tablespoons of honey and one
teaspoon of cinnamon powder paste. Apply this
paste on the pimples before sleeping and wash it
off the next morning with warm water. When done
daily for two weeks, it removes all pimples from
the root.
SKIN INFECTIONS: Applying honey and cinnamon
powder in equal parts on the affected parts cures
eczema, ringworm and all types of skin
Infections.
WEIGHT LOSS:Daily in the morning one half hour
before
breakfast and on an empty stomach, and at
night before sleeping, drink honey and cinnamon
powder boiled in one cup of water. When taken
regularly, it reduces the weight of even the most
obese person. Also, drinking this mixture regularly
does not allow the fat to accumulate in the body
even though the person may eat a high calorie
diet.
CANCER: Recent research in Japan and Australia
has revealed that advanced cancer of the
stomach and bones have been cured successfully.
Patients suffering from these kinds of cancer
should daily take one tablespoon of honey with
one teaspoon of cinnamon powder three times a
day for one month.
FATIGUE: Recent studies have shown that the
sugar content of honey is more helpful rather
than being detrimental to the strength of the
body. Senior citizens who take honey and
cinnamon powder in equal parts are more alert
and flexible. Dr. Milton, who has done research,
says that a half tablespoon of honey taken in a
glass of water and sprinkled with cinnamon
powder, even when the vitality of the body starts
to decrease, when taken daily after brushing
and in the afternoon at about 3:00 P.M., the
vitality of the body increases within a week.
BAD BREATH: People of South America, gargle
with one teaspoon of honey and cinnamon powder
mixed in hot water first thing in the morning so
their breath stays fresh throughout the day.
HEARING LOSS: Daily morning and night honey
and cinnamon powder, taken in equal parts
restores hearing. Remember when we were kids?
We had toast with real butter and cinnamon
sprinkled on it!
Want to get rid of that cellulite (lumpy fat
deposits under the skin)? Grapefruit juice is one
of the best fat-burning foods and a cellulite
remover. How does it do it?
- Helps improve blood circulation
- Burns excess fats effectively
- Detoxifies and removes toxins from the body,
thus reducing more fats forming
- Helps metabolize sugar in the blood
- Helps produce collagen to firm up the skin
- Reduces fluid retention which also contributes
to formation of cellulite
JUICE RECIPE (makes one portion):
- 1 large grapefruit
- 2 oranges
- 1/4 lemon
- 1/2 inch ginger root piece

eat a healthy low-fat diet by eliminating
processed and deep-fried foods, flour and sugar
products, gravies and coffee.
Remember to also drink LOTS of water to help
flush out toxins and hydrate your cells properly.
NOTE: If you're on any medication, DO NOT
consume grapefruit or its juice as it may
interfere with the metabolism of the drugs.

'' BANANAS...''
A 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.
BLOOD PRESSURE:
This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in
potassium yet low in salt, making it 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 a Twickenham (Middlesex) school
( England ) 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
blood sugar 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 chips. 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 disorders because of its soft texture
and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can
be eaten without distress in over-chronicler cases.
It also neutralizes 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.
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 IT ON TO YOUR FRIENDS...
PS: Bananas must be the reason monkeys are so
happy all the time! I will add one here; want a
quick shine on our shoes?? Take the INSIDE of the
banana skin, and rub directly on the shoe...polish
with dry cloth. Amazing fruit !!!
Home Remedy for sun burn
3-4 in piece off an aloe vera plant, sliced in half
1 Tbsp coconut oil, in liquid form
1/2 – 1 tsp raw honey or propolis
The amounts above will vary depending on how
much you need to cover. I used this for the area
that a tank top does not cover on my chest.
Directions: Start with aloe vera, liberally rub all
over infected area, let dry (30-90 sec), next
take coconut oil and rub over infected area (over
where the aloe was put). Next take the honey (I
would suggest using a propolis tincture, I didn’t
have one on hand I need to order more!) and
rub into any areas that look more red or
blistered. Then put an old tee shirt on and go to
bed. Most if not all will be absorbed by morning.
Take a warm wash cloth and wipe off any sticky
spots. For maintenance continue the process the
next night. Do this till the burn is either gone or
better.
I would love to know how well this works for you!
I do not want to “re-test” it to find out how well
it will work for me again so if you are burnt and
try this PLEASE let me know how it works for you!
