Facts On Honey & Cinnamon
It is found that mixture of Honey and Cinnamon
cures most of the diseases. Honey is produced in most countries of
the world.
Ayurvedic as well as Yunani medicine have been using honey as a
vital medicine for centuries.
Scientists of today also accept honey as a "Ram Ban" (very
effective) medicine for all kinds of diseases. Honey can be used
without any side effects for any kind of diseases.
Today’s science says that even though honey is sweet, if taken in
the right dosage as a medicine, it does not harm diabetic patients.
Weekly World News, a magazine in Canada, on its issue dated 17
January, 1995 has given the following list of diseases that can be
cured by Honey and Cinnamon as researched by western scientists.
HEART DISEASES: Make a paste of honey and cinnamon powder, apply on
bread, chappati, or other 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 already had
an attack, if 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 heartbeat. In America and Canada, various nursing
homes have treated patients successfully and have found that as age
the arteries and veins lose their flexibility and get clogged; honey
and cinnamon revitalizes the arteries and veins.
INSECT BITES: Take one part honey to two parts of lukewarm water and
add a small teaspoon of cinnamon powder, make a paste and massage it
on the itching part of the body slowly. It is noticed that the pain
recedes within a minute or two.
ARTHRITIS: Arthritis patients may take daily, morning and night, one
cup of hot water with two spoons of honey and one small teaspoon of
cinnamon powder. If 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, mostly all the patients who could not walk or move
around because of arthritis started walking without pain.
HAIR LOSS: Those suffering from hair loss or baldness, may apply a
paste of hot olive oil, one tablespoon of honey, one teaspoon of
cinnamon powder before bath and keep it for approx. 15 min. and then
wash the hair. It was found to be effective even if kept on for 5
minutes.
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.
TOOTHACHE: Make a paste of one teaspoon of cinnamon powder and five
teaspoons of honey and apply on the aching tooth. This may be
applied 3 times a day till the tooth stops aching.
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% within 2 hours. As mentioned for arthritic
patients, if taken 3 times a day, any Chronic cholesterol is cured.
As per 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 3
days. This process will cure most chronic cough, cold and clear the
sinuses.
INFERTILITY: Yunani and Ayurvedic Medicine have been using honey for
thousands of years to strengthen the semen of men. If impotent men
regularly take two tablespoon of honey before going to sleep, their
problem will be solved.
In China, Japan and Far-East countries, women, who do not conceive
and need to strengthen the uterus, have been taking cinnamon powder
for centuries. Women who cannot conceive may take a pinch of
cinnamon powder in half teaspoon of honey and apply it on the gums
frequently throughout the day, so that it slowly mixes with the
saliva and enters the body.
A couple in Maryland, USA, had no children for 14 years and had lost
hope of having a child of their own. When told about this process,
husband and wife started taking honey and cinnamon as stated above;
the wife conceived after a few months and had twins at full term.
UPSET STOMACH: Honey taken with cinnamon powder cures stomachache
and also clears stomach ulcers from the root.
GAS: According to the studies done in India & Japan, it is revealed
that if 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 bacteria 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 to fight bacteria and viral diseases.
INDIGESTION: Cinnamon powder sprinkled on two tablespoons of honey
taken before food, 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. Take 4 spoons of honey, 1
spoon of cinnamon powder and 3 cups of water and boil to make like
tea. Drink 1/4 cup, 3 to 4 times a day. It keeps the skin fresh and
soft and arrests old age.
Life spans also increases and even a 100 year old, starts performing
the chores of a 20-year-old.
PIMPLES: Three tablespoons of Honey and one teaspoon of cinnamon
powder paste. Apply this paste on the pimples before sleeping and
wash it next morning with warm water. If done daily for two weeks,
it removes 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 1/2 hour before breakfast on an
empty stomach and at night before sleeping, drink honey and cinnamon
powder boiled in one-cup water. If taken regularly it reduces the
weight of even the most obese person.
Also, drinking of 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 for one month 3 times a day.
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 power in equal
parts, are more alert and flexible.
Dr. Milton who has done research says that a half tablespoon honey
taken in a glass of water and sprinkled with cinnamon powder, taken
daily after brushing and in the afternoon at about 3.00 p.m. when
the vitality of the body starts to decrease, increases the vitality
of the body within a week.
BAD BREATH: People of South America, first thing in the morning
gargle with one teaspoon of honey and cinnamon powder mixed in hot
water. So their breath stays fresh throughout the day.
HEARING LOSS: Daily morning and night honey and cinnamon powder
taken in equal parts restore hearing.

SINGAPORE TRAFFIC POLICE ON BLACK BIKES (HAVE YOU SEEN ANY?)
I just received the following from a friend. It’s even more shocking. For your sharing to save our friends the
nightmare !
Our traffic Policemen are now riding black
bikes with jeans and dark blue jackets on the streets to catch people who like to
speed. Just a 2-cents advice: DO NOT SPEED !!! Stay away from trouble on the road.
Blood type - Does it matter?
"Have
you ever wondered why some people are able to lose weight on particular
diet and others are not? Why some people are plagued by poor health or
deterioration due to ageing, while others seem to live healthy and
vital lives even late in life? You are a biological individual”
Blood is amazing!
Blood
bathe our cells with nutrients and oxygen to make sure our organs work
properly by getting sufficient nutrients for production of energy.
Blood also carries unwanted or waste materials (metabolic by-products)
out from the body to be disposed through different elimination systems
in the body. Blood carries our vital immune force (white blood cells)
to ward us off from dreadful infections.
Blood does other wonders for humans by keeping them alive and vibrant.
This is because your blood influences every area of your physiology on
a cellular level. It has everything to do with how you digest your
food, your respond to stress, your mental state, the effectiveness of
your metabolism and the strength of your immune system. Therefore, your
blood type is unique. A single drop of your blood contains a
biochemical make-up as unique to you as your fingerprint. We are all
different. No two people are alike in terms of physical, emotional and
the food they take.
Why the danger?
Whenever you eat, a chemical reaction occurs between your blood and the foods or supplements you take. Food contains protein called lectins. Your blood type is genetically programmed to reject or accept certain lectins. When you eat a food containing lectins that are incompatible with your blood type, the lectins target an organ or bodily systems and begin to clump cells in that area, a process known as agglutination. The process can bring
the imbalances in your digestion, metabolism and immune system.
Why
your blood type matters?
You can greatly improve your health, vitality and emotional balance by knowing your blood
type and by making lifestyle and diet decisions based on the medically certified results of an ever increasing body
of genetic and blood type research. The discovery led by
Dr. Peter J. D’Adamo will surely open your eyes to the new evolution of blood science and its importance to human health. The blood
type concept can help you to:
Your Personality - Type B
About 29% of Singapore population
Below is a brief summary of your unique characteristics. The book Live Right For Your Type by Dr. Peter D’Adamo will take you through the journey of living, for you to find out more about your own unique fingerprint behavior:
INDEPENDENT
- Free Thinking
- Resilient
- Creative
- Original
- Subjective
- Inveterate
- Organizer
Your Diet - Type B
Type
B can best be described as idiosyncratic – with utterly unique and
sometimes chameleonlike characteristics. On the whole, the sturdy and
alert Type Bs are usually able to resist many of the most severe
diseases common to modern life. Yet because Type Bs are somewhat
offbeat, their systems seem more prone to exotic immune-system
disorders, such as multiple sclerosis, lupus, and chronic fatigue
syndrome.

Sharon Yong PS
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — Kelly Brannigan was suffering from a case of tattoo remorse.
Just a year ago, Ms. Brannigan, 24, who holds up Case No. 24 as one
of the models on the NBC game show “Deal or No Deal,” had been full of
hope when she and her fiancé had each other’s names tattooed across
their inner wrists.
But now, when she looks at the letters — P-A-T-R-I-C-K — she is reminded of the failed relationship.
For
help, she turned to Dr. Tattoff, a chain of tattoo removal stores where
nurses use lasers in a series of treatments to break down tattoo
pigments. Dr. Tattoff is part of a growing industry catering to people
who may not have thought about the implications of “forever” the first
time around.
Removing tattoos is costly, uncomfortable and
time-consuming, but the affinity for body art is so strong that some
people say they do it to clear space to tattoo all over again.
Many
dermatologists specialize in laser tattoo removal, and some laser
hair-removal centers are adding services. In California, there are
removal centers like Dr. Tattoff, Tat2BeGone and Tattoo MD.
Most
of Dr. Tattoff’s clients are women ages 25 to 35, said James Morel, the
chief executive of the company, which has given more than 13,000 tattoo
laser treatments since opening here in 2004. “Maybe women are getting
more tattoos than they used to,” Mr. Morel said, “or maybe they just
have a higher level of tattoo regret than men.”
On the horizon is
a development that could change the very nature of tattooing: a type of
ink encapsulated in beads and designed to break up after one treatment
with a special laser.
The technology for the ink, called Freedom-2, was developed by scientists from Massachusetts General Hospital, and Brown and Duke Universities. It is to go on sale this fall.
“We
think the fence-sitters who always wanted a tattoo but have been afraid
of the permanence will jump in and get tattoos,” said Martin Schmieg,
the chief executive of Freedom-2. “But as your life changes from young
to middle-aged to older, from single to married to divorced, you get
tattoo regret, so we think the tattoo removal market will increase as
well.”
There are no hard statistics on tattoo removal, but
Catherine A. Kniker, a senior vice president for Candela, a laser
manufacturer, calculated that Americans may have 100,000 laser tattoo
removal treatments this year.
Tattoos have been used for
centuries to reflect changes in life status, whether passage into
adulthood or induction into a group like the military or a gang. In
recent years, tattoos have also become a fashion accessory, a trend
fueled by basketball players, bands and celebrities.
A report by the Food and Drug Administration
estimated that as many as 45 million Americans have tattoos. The report
based the number on the finding by a Harris Interactive Poll in 2003
that 16 percent of all adults and 36 percent of people 25 to 29 had at
least one tattoo. The poll also found that 17 percent of tattooed
Americans regretted it.
A tattoo that cost several hundred
dollars could require several thousand dollars and many laser sessions
to remove. Dr. Tattoff charges $39 per square inch of tattoo for each
treatment.
Devices called Q-switched lasers are used to shatter
tattoo pigment into particles that are cleared by the body’s lymphatic
system. Full removal takes an average of eight treatments, spaced at
least a month apart, using different Q-switched lasers for
different-colored inks, said Dr. Suzanne Kilmer, a dermatologist and
laser researcher in Sacramento.
Each treatment incrementally
fades the tattoo. Some patients are left with pristine skin, others
with a shadow or white spots, Dr. Kilmer said.
Many states allow
nurses to perform laser treatments. But Dr. Kilmer said patients would
be better off going to experienced dermatologists who owned a variety
of lasers and were trained to treat possible complications like
allergic reactions.
Some researchers are trying to determine
whether tattoo removal treatments affect the lymph nodes. Researchers
in Europe reported that lasers used on certain pigments had created
toxic or carcinogenic byproducts.
“You would be concerned about
where the pigment goes, how long it is there and at what
concentrations,” said Paul C. Howard, director of the Center for
Phototoxicology at the National Toxicology Program of the Food and Drug
Administration, which is also researching pigments.
Still, last
month, Dage Decuir, a comptroller at a construction company, was at Dr.
Tattoff continuing treatments to remove a cat from her chest and a pig
from her arm, which would otherwise distract from her strapless wedding
gown.
Roger Rodriguez, himself a tattoo artist, was having an
amateur tattoo removed. The tattoo — his mother’s name, Margarita, in
wobbly calligraphy that had been partly covered with a sprawling tattoo
of his last name — had been done when he was 12.
“The back is good real estate,” Mr. Rodriguez said. “We are bulldozing everything so I can have a blank canvas again.”
Recently,
Dr. Eric F. Bernstein, a dermatologist and laser researcher in Bryn
Mawr, Pa., was treating David Donch, of Collingswood, N.J.
Mr.
Donch, a substitute teacher, wanted to erase black-and-white scenes of
suffering souls and multicolored stained-glass windows that enveloped
his lower right leg — a task that could take as many as 30 treatments,
Dr. Bernstein said.
Mr. Donch said the treatments felt like
rubber bands being snapped against his skin but that it was worth it.
“As I am getting older and planning to start a family and get my
teaching certificate, I am more aware that appearances are important,”
Mr. Donch said.
Ms. Brannigan of “Deal or No Deal” said she was
happy to see the name of her former fiancé fading from her wrist. She
said she had learned an important lesson: “I’m not going to get a
tattoo of another guy’s name until I get married.”

DRINK WATER ON EMPTY
STOMACH
DRINK WATER ON EMPTY STOMACH
It is popular in
Japan today to
drink water immediately after waking up every morning. Furthermore,
scientific tests have proven a its value.
We publish below a description of use
of water for our readers. For old and serious diseases as well as modern
illnesses the water treatment had been found successful by a Japanese
medical society as a 100% cure for the following diseases:
Headache, body ache, heart system,
arthritis, fast heart beat, epilepsy, excess fatness, bronchitis asthma,
TB, meningitis, kidney and urine diseases, vomiting, gastritis,
diarrhea, piles, diabetes, constipation, all eye diseases, womb, cancer and
menstrual disorders, ear nose and throat diseases.
METHOD OF TREATMENT
1. As you wake up in the morning
before brushing teeth, drink 4 x 160ml glasses of water
2. Brush and clean the mouth but
do not eat or drink anything for 45 minutes
3. After 45 minutes you may eat
and drink as normal.
4. After 15 minutes of breakfast,
lunch and dinner do not eat or drink anything for 2 hours
5. Those who are old or sick and
are unable to drink 4 glasses of water at the beginning may commence by
taking little water and gradually increase it to 4 glasses per day.
6. The above method of treatment
will cure diseases of the sick and others can enjoy a healthy life.
The following list gives the
number of days of treatment required to cure/control/reduce main diseases:
1. High Blood Pressure - 30
days
2. Gastric - 10 days
3. Diabetes - 30 days
4. Constipation - 10 days
5. Cancer - 180 days
6. TB - 90 days
7. Arthritis patients should
follow the above treatment only for 3 days in the 1st week, and from 2nd week
onwards - daily.
This treatment method has no side
effects, however at the commencement of treatment you may have to urinate
a few times.
It is better if we continue this
and make this procedure as a routine work in our life.
Drink Water and Stay healthy and
Active.
This makes sense .. the Chinese
and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals ..not cold water. maybe it
is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating!!! Nothing to lose,
everything to gain…
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.
A serious note about heart
attacks: Women 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…
A cardiologist says if everyone
who gets this mail sends it to everyone they know, you can be sure that
we’ll save at least one life.
