மூளையைப் பாதிக்கும் பழக்கங்கள்

1. காலையில் உணவு உண்ணாமல் இருப்பது: காலையில் உணவு உண்ணாமல் இருப்பவர் களுக்கு ரத்தத்தில் குறைவான அளவே சர்க்கரை இருக்கும். இது மூளைக்குத் தேவையான சக்தியையும் தேவையான ஊட்டச்சத்துக்களையும் கொடுக்காமல், மூளை அழிவுக்குக் காரணமாகும்.

2. மிக அதிகமாகச் சாப்பிடுவது: இது மூளையில் இருக்கும் ரத்த நாளங்கள் இறுகக் காரணமாகி, மூளையின் சக்தி குறைவுக்குக் காரணமாகும்.

3. நிறைய சர்க்கரை சாப்பிடுதல்: இது புரோட்டின் நமது உடலில் சேர்வதைத் தடுக்கிறது. இதுவும் மூளை வளர்ச்சிக்கு பாதிப்பாகிறது.

4. தூக்கமின்மை : நல்ல தூக்கம் நம் மூளைக்கு ஓய்வு கொடுக்கும். நீண்டகாலம் தேவையான அளவு தூங்காமலிருப்பது மூளைக்கு பாதிப்பை ஏற்படுத்தும்.

5. மாசு நிறைந்த காற்று : மாசு நிறைந்த காற்றை சுவாசித்தல், நமக்குத் தேவையான ஆக்ஸிஜனை நாம் பெறுவதிலிருந்து தடை செய்கிறது. மூளைக்கு ஆக்ஸிஜன் செல்லாவிட்டால், மூளை பாதிப்படையும்.

6. புகை பிடித்தல் : மூளை சுருங்கவும், அல்ப்ஸமர்ஸ் வியாதி வருவதற்கும் காரணமாகிறது.

7. மூளைக்கு வேலை கொடுக்கும் சிந்தனைகளை மேற்கொள்ளாமல் இருப்பது : மூளையை அதிகமாக உபயோகப்படுத்தும் சிந்தனைகளை மேற்கொள்வதால், மூளையில் புதுப்புது இணைப்புகள் உருவாகின்றன. அதனால், மூளை வலிமையான உறுப்பாக ஆகிறது.

8. தலையை மூடிக்கொண்டு தூங்குவது : தலையை மூடிக்கொண்டு தூங்குவது, போர்வைக்குள் கரியமிலவாயு அதிகரிக்க வைக்கிறது. இது நீங்கள், சுவாசிக்கும் ஆக்ஸிஜனை குறைக்கிறது. குறைவான ஆக்ஸிஜனை குறைக்கிறது. குறைவான ஆக்ஸிஜன் மூளையைப் பாதிக்கிறது.

9. நோயுற்ற காலத்தில் மூளைக்கு வேலை கொடுப்பது : உடல் நோயுற்ற காலத்தில் மிக அதிகமாக மூளைக்கு வேலை கொடுப்பதும், தீவிரமாகப் படிப்பதும் மூளையைப் பாதிக்கும். உடல் சரியாக ஆன பின்னால், மூளைக்கு வேலை கொடுப்பதே சிறந்தது.

10. பேசாமல் இருப்பது : அறிவுப்பூர்வமான உரையாடல்களை மேற்கொள்வது மூளையின் வலிமையை அதிகரிக்கிறது.

Cancer Cells

PLEASE SPARE 5 MINUTES TO READ THIS AND THEN FORWARD THE SAME TO ALL THOSE WHO ARE IMPORTANT TO YOU.
News from John Hopkins

AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE ONLY WAY TO TRY (TRY THE KEY WORD) AND ELIMINATE CANCER, JOHN HOPKINS IS FINALLY STARTING TO TELL YOU THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE WAY
Cancer Update from John Hopkins:

1. Every person has cancer cells in the body. These cancer cells do not show up in the standard tests until they have multiplied to a few billion. When doctors tell cancer patients that there are no more cancer cells in their bodies after treatment, it just means the tests are unable to detect the cancer cells because they have not reached the detectable size.

 
2. Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person's lifetime.


3. When the person's immune system is strong the cancer cells will be destroyed and prevented from multiplying and forming tumors.

4. When a person has cancer it indicates the person has multiple nutritional deficiencies. These could be due to genetic, environmental, food and lifestyle factors.


5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing diet and including supplements will strengthen the immune system.


6. Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly-growing cancer cells and also destroys rapidly-growing healthy cells in the bone marrow, gastro-intestinal tract etc, and can cause organ damage, like liver, kidneys, heart, lungs etc.


7. Radiation while destroying cancer cells also burns, scars and damages healthy cells, tissues and organs.


8. Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will often reduce tumor size. However prolonged use of chemotherapy and radiation do not result in more tumor destruction.


9. When the body has too much toxic burden from chemotherapy and radiation the immune system is either compromised or destroyed, hence the person can succumb to various kinds of infections and complications.
10. Chemotherapy and radiation can cause cancer cells to mutate and become resistant and difficult to destroy. Surgery can also cause cancer cells to spread to other sites.


11. An effective way to battle cancer is to starve the cancer cells by not feeding it with the foods it needs to multiply.

CANCER CELLS FEED ON

a. Sugar is a cancer-feeder. By cutting off sugar it cuts off one important food supply to the cancer cells. Sugar substitutes like NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc are made with Aspartame and it is harmful. A better natural substitute would be Manuka honey or molasses but only in very small amounts. Table salt has a chemical added to make it white in colour. Better alternative is Bragg's aminos or sea salt.


b. Milk causes the body to produce mucus, especially in the gastro-intestinal tract. Cancer feeds on mucus. By cutting off milk and substituting with unsweetened soya milk cancer cells are being starved.


c. Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment. A meat-based diet is acidic and it is best to eat fish, and a little chicken rather than beef or pork. Meat also contains livestock antibiotics, growth hormones and parasites, which are all harmful, especially to people with cancer.

NUTRITION AND OTHER CANCER INFO

a. A diet made of 80% fresh vegetables and juice, whole grains, seeds, nuts and a little fruits help put the body into an alkaline environment. About 20% can be from cooked food including beans. Fresh vegetable juices provide live enzymes that are easily absorbed and reach down to cellular levels within 15 minutes to nourish and enhance growth of healthy cells. To obtain live enzymes for building healthy cells try and drink fresh vegetable juice (most vegetables including bean sprouts) and eat some raw vegetables 2 or 3 times a day. Enzymes are destroyed at temperatures of 104 degrees F (40 degrees C).


b. Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high caffeine. Green tea is a better alternative and has cancer-fighting properties. Water- best to drink purified water, or filtered, to avoid known toxins and heavy metals in tap water. Distilled water is acidic, avoid it.


c. Meat protein is difficult to digest and requires a lot of digestive enzymes. Undigested meat remaining in the intestines become putrefied and leads to more toxic buildup.


d. Cancer cell walls have a tough protein covering. By refraining from or eating less meat it frees more enzymes to attack the protein walls of cancer cells and allows the body's killer cells to destroy the cancer cells.

e. Some supplements build up the immune system (IP6, Flor ssence, Essiac, anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals, EFAs etc.) to enable the body's own killer cells to destroy cancer cells.


f. Other supplements like vitamin E are known to cause apoptosis, or programmed cell death, the body's normal method of disposing of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded cells.


g. Cancer is a disease of the mind, body, and spirit. A proactive and positive spirit will help the cancer warrior be a survivor. Anger, unforgiveness and bitterness put the body into a stressful and acidic environment. Learn to have a loving and forgiving spirit. Learn to relax and enjoy life.


h. Cancer cells cannot thrive in an oxygenated environment. Exercising daily, and deep breathing help to get more oxygen down to the cellular level. Oxygen therapy is another means employed to destroy cancer cells.

A BIG NO-NO
1. No plastic containers in micro.
2. No water bottles in freezer.
3. No plastic wrap in microwave.

Johns Hopkins has recently sent this out in its newsletters. This information is being circulated at Walter Reed Army Medical Center as well. Dioxin chemicals cause cancer, especially breast cancer.

Dioxins are highly poisonous to the cells of our bodies.

Don't freeze your plastic bottles with water in them as this releases dioxins from the plastic.

Recently, Dr. Edward Fujimoto, Wellness Program Manager at Castle Hospital was on a TV program to explain this health hazard.

   He talked about dioxins and how bad they are for us. He said that we should not be heating our food in the microwave using plastic containers. This especially applies to foods that contain fat.
   He said that the combination of fat, high heat, and plastics releases dioxin into the food and ultimately into the cells of the body. Instead, he recommends using glass, such as Corning Ware, Pyrex or ceramic containers for heating food. You get the same results, only without the dioxin.
    So such things as TV dinners, instant ramen and soups, etc., should be removed from the container and heated in something else.
     Paper isn't bad but you don't know what is in the paper. It's just safer to use tempered glass, Corning Ware, etc.
    He reminded us that a while ago some of the fast food restaurants moved away from the foam containers to paper. The dioxin problem is one of the reasons.
    Also, he pointed out that plastic wrap, such as Saran, is just as dangerous when placed over foods to be cooked in the microwave.
    As the food is nuked, the high heat causes poisonous toxins to actually melt out of the plastic wrap and drip into the food. Cover food with a paper towel instead.

Important Information about Gas cylinder

Have U ever heard about LPG gas cylinder's expiry date....!!

Do you know that there is an expiry date (llife) LPG cylinders? Expired Cylinders are not safe for use and may cause accidents. In this regard, please be cautious at the time of accepting any LPG cylinder from the vendor.
Here is how we can check the expiry of LPG cylinders:
On one of three side stems of the cylinder, the expiry date is coded alpha numerically as follows A or B or C or D and some two digit number following this e.g. D06.
The alphabets stand for quarters -
1. A for March (First Qtr),
2. B for June (Second Qtr),
3. C for Sept (Third Qtr),
4. D for December (Fourth Qtr).
The digits stand for the year till it is valid. Hence D06 would mean December qtr of 2006.
Please Return Back the Cylinder that you get with a Expiry Date, they are prone to Leak and other Hazardous accidents ...


The second example with D13 allows the cylinder to be in use until Dec 2013 .

ஆணவம்

ராமகிருஷ்ண பரமஹம்சர் ஒரு நாள், கங்கை நதிக்கரையில் ஓய்வாக அமர்ந்திருந்தார். அவரைத் தேடி யோகி ஒருவர் வந்து சேர்ந்தார். ஆணவம் மிகுந்தவர் அந்த யோகி. பரமஹம்சரிடம், “என்னைப் போல் கங்கை நீரின் மேல் நடந்து உங்களால் கரையைக் கடக்க முடியுமா?” என்று கேட்டார்.
“நீர் மேல் நடக்கும் யோகத்தை எவ்வளவு காலம் பயின்றீர்கள்?” என்று வினவினார் பரமஹம்சர். “இமயத்தில் 18 ஆண்டுகள் நோன்பிருந்து, கடும் யோகாசனம் பயின்று, இந்த ஸித்தி கைவரப் பெற்றேன். உங்களால் நீரில் நடக்க இயலுமா?” என்று பெருமிதத்துடன் கேட்டார் யோகி.
அவரைப் பார்த்து புன்னகைத்தார் பரமஹம்சர். “அப்பனே, அந்த அளவுக்கு நான் முட்டாள் இல்லை. கங்கையின் அக்கரைக்கு செல்ல விரும்பினால் படகுக்காரனிடம் இரண்டு பைசா கொடுத்தால் போதும். அவன், என்னை அக்கரையில் கொண்டுபோய் விடுவான். 18 ஆண்டுகளை வீணாக்கி நீ சம்பாதித் யோக சக்தி, இரண்டு பைசாவுக்குத்தான் சமம். வேண்டாத இ்ந்த விளையாட்டில் எனக்கு எப்போதும் விருப்பம் இல்லை!” என்றார்.
நாம் எந்தச் செயலை செய்தாலும் அதில் சிரத்தையுடன் மனதை செலுத்தி, முழுமையான அர்பணிப்பு உணர்வுடன் செய்ய வேண்டும். ‘எப்போதெல்லாம் மனம் நிலையற்று அலைகிறதோ அப்போது மனதை ஆத்மாவின் வசத்தில் நிலைநிறுத்த வேண்டும்’ என்கிறார் கீதையில் வழிகாட்டுகிறார் ஸ்ரீகிருஷ்ணர்.

Lessons Learned

One day, the father of a very wealthy family took his son on a trip to the country with the express purpose of showing him how poor people live.

They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what would be considered a very poor family.

On their return from their trip, the father asked his son, “How was the trip?”

“It was great, Dad.”

“Did you see how poor people live?” the father asked.

“Oh yeah,” said the son.

“So, tell me, what did you learn from the trip?” asked the father.

The son answered: “I saw that we have one dog and they had four. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden and they have a creek that has no end. We have imported lanterns in our garden and they have the stars at night. Our patio reaches to the front yard and they have the whole horizon.

“We have a small piece of land to live on and they have fields that go beyond our sight.

“We have servants who serve us, but they serve others. We buy our food, but they grow theirs.

“We have walls around our property to protect us, they have friends to protect them.”

The boy’s father was speechless.

Then his son added, “Thanks Dad for showing me how poor we are.”

Nice story-DO read!

A boy and a girl were playing together. The boy had a collection of marbles. The girl had some sweets with her. The boy told the girl that he will give her all his marbles in exchange for her sweets. The girl agreed.he boy kept the biggest and the most beautiful marble aside and gave the rest to the girl. The girl gave him all her sweets as she had promised.That night, the girl slept peacefully. But the boy couldn't sleep as he kept wondering if the girl had hidden some sweets from him the way he had hidden his best marble.

Moral of the story:
If you don't give your hundred percent in a relationship, you'll always keep doubting if the other person has given his/her hundred percent..
This is applicable for any relationship...
Give your hundred percent to everything you do and sleep peacefully..

Also
Don't eat  kurkure because it contains high amount of plastic if U don't believe, burn  kurkure n u can see plastic melting.  --- I dont know how far it is true...

A small touching story mainly for professionals...

A man came home from work late, tired and irritated, to find his 5-year old son waiting for him at the door.
SON: "Daddy, may I ask you a question?"
DAD: "Yeah sure, what is it?" replied the man.
SON: "Daddy, how much do you make an hour?"
DAD: "That's none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?" the man said angrily.
SON: "I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?"
DAD: "If you must know, I make Rs.100 an hour."
SON: "Oh," the little boy replied, with his head down.
SON: "Daddy, may I please borrow Rs.50?"

The father was furious, "If the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish. I work hard everyday for such this childish behavior."

The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door.
The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy's questions. How dare he ask such questions only to get some money?

After about an hour or so, the man had calmed down, and started to think: Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that Rs.50 and he really didn't ask for money very often. The man went to the door of the little boy's room and opened the door. "Are you asleep, son?" He asked.

"No daddy, I'm awake," replied the boy.
"I've been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier" said the man.
"It's been a long day and I took out my aggravation on you.. Here's the Rs.50 you asked for."

The little boy sat straight up, smiling. "Oh, thank you daddy!" He yelled.

Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled up bills.
The man saw that the boy already had money, started to get angry again. The little boy slowly counted out his money, and then looked up at his father.

"Why do you want more money if you already have some?" the father grumbled.
"Because I didn't have enough, but now I do," the little boy replied.

"Daddy, I have Rs.100 now. Can I buy an hour of your time?
Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you."

The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little son, and he begged for his forgiveness.

It's just a short reminder to all of you working so hard in life. We should not let time slip through our fingers without having spent some time with those who really matter to us, those close to our hearts.


Do remember to share that Rs.100 worth of your time with someone you love.
If we die tomorrow, the company that we are working for could easily replace us in a matter of days.


But the family & friends we leave behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives. And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more into work than to our family.

WHY ME? ....ONE PARAGRAPH THAT EXPLAINS LIFE!

Arthur Ashe, the legendary Wimbledon player was dying of AIDS which he got due to infected blood he received during a heart surgery in 1983.
From world over, he received letters from his fans, one of which conveyed: "Why does GOD have to select you for such a bad disease"?
To this Arthur Ashe replied:
"The world over -- 50 million  children start playing tennis, 5 million learn to play tennis,
500,000 learn professional tennis, 50,000 come to the circuit, 5000 reach the  grand slam,
50 reach Wimbledon, 4 to semi final, 2 to the finals,
when I was holding a cup I never asked GOD 'Why me?'.
And today in pain I should not be asking GOD 'Why me?' "

"Happiness keeps you Sweet,
Trials keep you Strong,
Sorrow keeps you Human,
Failure keeps you humble and
Success keeps you glowing,
but only Faith & Attitude Keeps you going... "

Things are to be Used, People are to be Loved

While a man was polishing his new car,
his 4 yr old son picked up a stone
and scratched lines on the side of the car. In anger, the man took the child's hand
and hit it many times not realizing
he was using a wrench.

At the hospital, the child lost all his fingers
due to multiple fractures.

When the child saw his father.....
with painful eyes he asked, 'Dad when will my fingers grow back?'
The man was so hurt and speechless;
he went back to his car and kicked it a lot of times.

Devastated by his own actions......
sitting in front of that car he looked at the scratches;
the child had written 'LOVE YOU DAD'.
The next day that man committed suicide. . .

Anger and Love have no limits;
choose the latter to have a beautiful, lovely
life & remember this:
Things are to be used and people are to be loved.

The problem in today's world is
that people are used while things are loved.

Let's try always to keep this thought in mind:
Things are to be used,
People are to be loved.

Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character;
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.

Heart Attacks And Drinking Warm Water

This is a very good article. Not only about the warm water after your meal, but about Heart Attacks.
The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals, not cold water, maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating.
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.
Common Symptoms Of Heart Attack...
A serious note about heart attacks - You 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.
