Jerry Leung asked:


We need to have foods in order to provide the energy we need for our daily activities. We also need to eat the right thing in order to make ourselves healthy. However, many people will not eat the right foods and this may pose risk to our health.

We should try to eat the right thing when we want to prevent certain illnesses. However, some people may think that they may need to take some medications if we want to prevent certain illnesses. They may even think that they will need to go to the doctor. However, this concept is totally wrong. You should try to prevent illnesses by taking the right food.

We need to plan a good diet for ourselves if we would like to be healthier. Of course there are also some people think that only people who want to lose weight will need to plan for a diet. However, the fact is that you will need a good diet if you would keep yourself healthy.

Do you know that some people get cancer because of what they eat? Of course a lot of different factors will affect the probability of developing cancer. However, what we eat is certainly one of the crucial factors here. You should try to eat at least an apple a day. It is very true that you can keep the doctor away from you if you can have an apple a day. Applies are rich in vitamins and A and C. It will help you to prevent cancer.

You should also have oranges from time to time. The first reason is of course usually oranges taste good. Another thing is that the vitamin C within oranges can help us to prevent flues. Of course they will also help to prevent cancer. As in the case of apples, you should try to have at least an orange a day. This will certainly be good for your health.

Carrots are also good for you. Again, it can help you to prevent cancer. Another important thing is that carrots are also good for the health of your eyes.

Salmon contains omega-3 fat, this is certainly good for your heart. You should try to have salmon once a week. This will help you to lower the risk of developing heart diseases.

In order to become healthier, you should try to plan our diet. You should never wait until it is too late. So, it is better that you plan your diet today!



Acai And It’s Cancer Fighting Properties

Hi

Today we are bombarded with everyday foods now being labelled ‘superfoods’ which is excellent for our good health, but Acai berries are not on the tip of most people’s tongue and yet are classed as having the highest amount of anti-oxidant properties currently.

Not only this but the Acai (pronounced ah-sigh-ee) is also claimed to be one of the most powerful and nutritious food in the world.

The Acai grows wild in the tropical forests in Central America and Brazilian Amazon, where it is abundantly found at the top of the native tree Euterpe Oleracea in the flood plains there.

The indigenous people of these areas have long known the many good health benefits of the Acai and as a good food have used it to treat and cure many ailments as well as using it as a good health enhancing food.

Acai berries are not found readily in your local supermarket although a few have stocked it, as the berries have a very short shelf life and harvest period, but can be purchased from reputable gourmet stores, chemists and good health food outlets in freeze dried, tablet, capsule, juice or fruit pulp form year round.

Obviously the best form of Acai is the fresh berry but this is very difficult to get hold of and expensive, the freeze dried is the next best thing but the pulp and juice is also excellent but be sure and only purchase 100% pure juice that contains no added sugar or artificial ingredients and preservatives.

By adding any form of Acai berry such as freeze dried Acai -  that is a good food for good health for you and your overall health, can only benefit your well being of body and mind alike with its fantastic amount of anti-oxidants that promote good health of your liver and immune system.

The flavour of the Acai berry is similar to the blueberry yet with a chocolate twist to it – that should suit many people although it can be quite bitter, so if you have a sweet tooth the capsule or tablet form may be better suited to you.

The Acai berry is also packed with fibre, in fact a total of 44% of the fruit mass is actually fibre, so not only does it have the highest anti-oxidant properties it also is one of the richest fruits in fibre as well, another good health benefit for you.

The high concentration of anti-oxidants in Acai are great for protecting cells from free radicals – these are then unstable molecules that cause damage in our bodies.

Being a by-product of normal bodily functions, free radicals are constantly being formed with antioxidants destroying them throughout our life span, a constant circle.

The problem with free radicals is that they can accumulate too much when our body’s are exposed to abnormal toxins such as smoking, pesticides, alcohol, pollution, radiation or just being low on anti-oxidants, greatly exceeding the ability the body has to fight then.

These free radicals then attack healthy cells and invade healthy tissues, our health then suffers as a result of this, so keeping a good diet rich in healthy anti-oxidants is key to good health, and the Acai berry is second to none for this.

Let’s hope that with more awareness of this super-food and its powerful properties, the little known Acai berry, whether it is freeze dried Acai or one of the other products forms, it will become a popular fruit to everyone, increasing the anti-oxidants in your every day diet.

Take your acai berry today
