Fruit for thought.








So Fruit!!!! We have always been told thats its so good for us, our mothers tell us, our grandmothers tell and and the Doctor tells us! Do we ever really listen though? 
Well, I've always been a fruit lover, I loved it when I was told to eat fruit - gave me more reason to eat more! So with this fruit addiction of mine, I was doing some research and a friend emailed me something really interesting, so thought that it would be better to share what she sent. Blew me away and open up so much more understanding! 
Have added my thought in BLUE. 


This is what she sent me :- 


Thanks for the email on fruits and juices. It is one of the strategies to heal cancer. As of late, my success rate in curing cancer is about 80%. Cancer patients shouldn't die. The cure for cancer is already found. It is whether you believe it or not. I am sorry for the hundreds of cancer patients who die under the conventional treatments. Very few can live for 5 years under the conventional treatments and most live for only about 2 to 3 years. The conventional treatments do not make any difference because most cancer patients also live for about 2 to 3 years without undergoing any treatment. It is difficult to cure those cancer patients who have undergone chemo and radiotherapy as their cells are toxic and weak. When there is a relapse, the cancer will spread very fast as the resistance is poor.
Thanks and God bless.

 *EATING FRUIT...*


We all think eating fruits means just buying fruit, cutting it and just popping it into our mouths. It's not as easy as you think. It's important to know how and *when* to eat.

What is the correct way of eating fruit?

*IT MEANS NOT EATING FRUIT AFTER YOUR MEALS! * FRUIT SHOULD BE EATEN ON AN EMPTY STOMACH.**
*
If you eat fruit like that, it will play a major role to detoxify your system, supplying you with a great deal of energy for weight loss and other life activities. 
*
FRUIT IS A MOST IMPORTANT FOOD.* Let's say you eat two slices of bread and then a slice of fruit. The slice of fruit is ready to go straight through the stomach into the intestines, but it is prevented from doing so.

In the meantime the whole meal ferments and turns to acid. The minute the fruit comes into contact with the food in the stomach and digestive juices, the entire mass of food begins to spoil...- well that might explain the stomach aches we have after having fruit after a meal!!! 

So please eat your fruit on an *empty* *stomach* or before your meals! You have heard people complaining ~ every time I eat watermelon I burp, when I eat durian my stomach bloats up, when I eat a banana I feel like running to the toilet, etc ~ actually all this will not arise if you eat the fruit on an empty stomach. The fruit mixes with the putrefying other food and produces gas and hence you will bloat! - Being on a Greek Island, and seeing how they eat and live, I noticed that after I read this, 85% (or more) of the people eat lots of fruit after a meal. Not so good is it! Noticed that they get rowdy and uncomfortable shortly after, and I always thought that they had ants in their pants, well this now explains a little the fidgeting and growling tummy I can hear from across the room! 

Graying hair, balding, nervous outburst, and dark circles under the eyes....all these will *NOT* happen if you take fruits on an empty stomach.- That was a big problem solver for me - as I've had dark circles under my eyes most of my life, and I have never known why, I'm not entirely sure that this is the main reason, but perhaps its had a small percentage in it! I'm so tired of being judged because of my dark eyes, so maybe this will eliminate some of the darkness. I know that there are so many other people with dark circles under their eyes, so maybe with this information, it can totally solve their dark eye problem! 

There is no such thing as some fruits like orange and lemon being acidic, because all fruits become alkaline in our body, according to Dr. Herbert Shelton who did research on this matter. If you have mastered the correct way of eating fruit, you have the Secret of beauty, longevity, health, energy, happiness and normal weight. - Wow, Beauty treatments without having to go to a Salon for the day? Live longer? more energy and normal weight? seems all worth it to me! Anyway, if that fruit was not offered to you at the end of the meal, would you have it? No, because you are actually full after the meal that you just ate, and because you were offered the fruit, you're eyes have seen it, the message has already been sent to your brain that you are not full enough and that you need the fruit, so you have it. Leaving you with tummy cramps!! So not worth it, eating the fruit after the meal.

When you need to drink fruit juice - drink only *fresh* fruit juice, NOT from the cans. Don't even drink juice that has been heated up. Don't eat cooked fruits because you don't get the nutrients at all. You only get to taste. Cooking destroys all the vitamins.- Totally understandable! 

*But eating a whole fruit is better than drinking the juice*. If you should drink the juice, drink it mouthful by mouthful slowly, because you must let it mix with your saliva before swallowing it. You can go on a 3-day fruit fast to cleanse your body. Just eat fruits and drink fruit juice throughout the 3 days and you will be surprised when your friends tell you how radiant you look!

*KIWI:* Tiny but mighty. This is a good source of potassium, magnesium, vitamin E & fiber. Its vitamin C content is twice that of an orange. - Love Kiwi. A Kiwi and Strawberry smoothie is divine! 

*APPLE:* An apple a day keeps the doctor away? Although an apple has a low vitamin C content, it has antioxidants & flavonoids which enhances the activity of vitamin C thereby helping to lower the risks of colon cancer, heart attack & stroke. - Will never forget that saying, my Grandmother aways used to say it to me! So with every apple that comes with its goodness, it comes with the good advise of a deeply loved Grandmother.

*STRAWBERRY:* Protective Fruit. Strawberries have the highest total antioxidant power among major fruits & protect the body from cancer-causing, blood vessel-clogging free radicals. - OK, this is NO EXCUSE to get the cream out and sit there dipping the Strawberry in cream!! NO! Keep the cream and sugar away and eat the Strawberry as is!!! Sweet taste of heaven! 
*
ORANGE :* Sweetest medicine. Taking 2-4 oranges a day may help keep colds away, lower cholesterol, prevent & dissolve kidney stones as well as lessens the risk of colon cancer. - Colon Cancer is one of the most severe Cancers today, so ward it off with those juicy oranges! - Will also quench your thirst! So Two benefits in this one! 

*WATERMELON:* Coolest thirst quencher. Composed of 92% water, it is also packed with a giant dose of glutathione, which helps boost our immune system. They are also a key source of lycopene ~ the cancer fighting oxidant. Other nutrients found in watermelon are vitamin C &  potassium. - Watermelon has a high sugar content, so as much as you love it, don't have too much. 

*GUAVA & PAPAYA:* Top awards for vitamin C. They are the clear winners for their high vitamin C content.. Guava is also rich in fiber, which helps prevent constipation. Papaya is rich in carotene; this is good for your eyes. - Explains why mothers give their babies Guava! Here I thought that mothers were just giving their baby some good vitamins, meanwhile they were preventing some other issues! 

*Drinking Cold water after a meal = Cancer!* Can u believe this?? 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. - This was a huge shock for me, as I love having a meal with a glass of cold water! Often had a stomach ache after eating, and well now this has cleared all confusion! I certainly won't be drinking cold water with a meal again! I remember my Grandmother used to have a mug of warm water after food, but I never asked why, I just always thought that was something she did! Well now I know she was more clever than I thought. 

A serious note about heart attacks HEART ATTACK PROCEDURE': (THIS IS NOT A JOKE!) 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. Sixty percent 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. - Any kind of pain should not be ignored. My Father had a heart attack last year (2009) and the symptoms were that of indigestion, we were lucky to get him to hospital in time. A number of years ago my Mother had chest pain and pain down the left arm,we never took any chances and got an ambulance, turned out to be something else, but at least we got it checked. It’s just to easy to be unnoticed and not taken seriously, so please, any pain in the upper body, get it checked out. Rather be sure! My mother was embarrassed that after calling the ambulance out, it turned out to be something else, but at least we knew she was ok! Don't worry what the Doctors, paramedics or whoever else will think about you. Your health IS important!
