Some Wonderful Healthy Tips

The food we eat has to be digested and thrown out of the body in 24 hours, else we will fall ill.

The water we drink gets in our body, has to be thrown out in 4 hours, else we might fall sick.

The air we breathe has to be thrown out in 1 minute, else may suffocate in ending life.

What about negative emotions hatred, anger, jealousy, insecurity, phobias ... we hold them in our body for days, months, and years.

If these negative emotions are not thrown out regularly, it props up into psycho-somatic diseases. The sufferings and pains will continue till you hold onto them. Drop all the negative emotions. Learn to Forgive and Forget! Smile and Stay happy at every moment.

Yoga, Meditation, and Prayers are the safest ways to dissolve these emotions.

Beautiful Thought by Lord Buddha

Once Buddha was traveling with a few of his followers. While they were passing a lake, Buddha told one of his disciples, "I am thirsty. Do get me some water from the lake."

The disciple walked up to the lake. At that moment, a bullock cart started crossing through the lake. As a result, the water became very muddy and turbid. The disciple thought, "How can I give this muddy water to Buddha to drink?"

So he came back and told Buddha, "The water in there is very muddy. I don't think it is fit to drink." After about half an hour, again Buddha asked the same disciple to go back to the lake .

The disciple went back, and found that the water was still muddy. He returned and informed Buddha about the same.

After sometime, again Buddha asked the same disciple to go back. This time, the disciple found the mud had settled down, and the water was clean and clear. So he collected some water in a pot and brought it to Buddha.

Buddha looked at the water, and then he looked up at the disciple and said," See what you did to make the water clean. You let it be, and the mud settled down on its own -- and you have clear water.

Your mind is like that too ! When it is disturbed, just let it be. Give it a little time. It will settle down on its own. You don't have to put in any effort to calm it down. It will happen. It is effortless."

Having 'Peace of Mind' is not a strenuous job; it is an effortless process!

“Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.”  

Buddha

Anemia (Iron Deficiency)

Anemia is a condition that develops when your blood lacks enough healthy red blood cells or hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is a main part of red blood cells and binds oxygen. If you have too few or abnormal red blood cells, or your hemoglobin is abnormal or low, the cells in your body will not get enough oxygen.

Symptoms of anemia -- like fatigue (tiredness) -- occur because organs aren't getting what they need to function properly. Symptoms common to many types of anemia include the following:

• Anemia is caused by blood loss
• Anemia is caused by decreased or faulty red blood cell production
• Pale Skin, Yellowness in Skin and Eyes.
• Muscular weakness
• Easy Fatigue, Fainting, Dizziness and loss of energy
• Difficulty concentrating
• Unusually rapid heart beat, particularly with exercise
• Shortness of breath and headache, particularly with exercise
• Leg cramps
• Insomnia (Inability to sleep)
• Low Blood Pressure
• Chest Pain and Heart Attack in Severe Anemia.

Overview:
Red blood cells are important for the transport of oxygen-rich blood to body tissues and removal of carbon dioxide from the body. Red blood cells are red because they contain an iron-rich protein known as hemoglobin, which is bright red in color. Over time, red blood cells wear out and die. The bone marrow continually makes more red blood cells. Certain foods increase production of red blood cells. Consuming foods rich in iron can prevent anemia and help keep all your cells well-supplied with oxygen. Sources of iron include beans, lentils, dark green leafy vegetables such as spinach and kale, beetroot, dried prunes, raisins and egg yolks, according to MedlinePlus.

Top sources of Iron food to fight Anemia:

1. Spirulina powder with warm water daily
2. Moringa Leaves (Take dry leaf powder with warm water, or Have fresh leafs cooked with lentils)
3. Soya Milk and Tofu
4. Soya Edamame (beens) boiled
5. Wheat grass Juice
6. Eat Spinach cooked.
7. Kale
8. Daily Juice (Beetroot + Carrots + Green Apples + Honey)
9. Palm Jaggery + Sesame Seeds + Peanuts (*peanuts are very good for heart)
10. Legumes (Lentils, Kidney, Lima, Pinto, ...) beans
11. Raagulu, and Jowar grains.
12. Dates soaked in water overnight
13. Pumpkin, and Sunflower seeds
14. Raisins & Prunes soaked
15. Honey taken mixed with warm water enhances the blood's hemoglobin levels. Honey is also very good for the heart and brain, and keeps the mind alert. Note: Honey should NOT be cooked or boiled.
16. Figs (Anjeer) soaked
17. Oats
18. Curry leaves
19. Fresh Fruits (Banana, Pomegranate and Apples).
20. Meats (Chicken, Turkey, Fish, Red meat).

All the above food helps in improving your red blood cells and gives more iron, can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and helps in cases of anemia.
