    ~DRINK WATER ON EMPTY STOMACH~~

    It is popular in Japan today to drink water immediately after waking up every morning. Further more, scientific tests have proven 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 minute

    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)

    5. Cancer (180 days)

    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. May be 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.
    Please be a true friend and send this article to all your friends you care about.

    PLEASE DON'T IGNORE SHARE IT. THIS MIGHT SAVE
    SOMEONE'S LIFE

    Simple Tips to Improve Your Digestion

    digestivesystem.gif
    Digestive System

    Chew Food Thoroughly
    Chewing breaks down food so that it’s easier to digest, stimulates the flow of saliva and also signals the stomach and other organs to secrete digestive juices for incoming food.

    Avoid cold drinks with meals

    Cold fluids can slow down the digestive processes. Try not to drink anything with meals, if you must then take only a small amount @ room temperature or warm water.
    Take Ginger and other Herbs.(Also See Benefits of Ginger)
    Ginger can stimulate the gastric juices and aid the digestive process. Herbal remedies for acute and chronic digestive problems usually contain ginger, fennel, peppermint etc.
    Food combining
    Food combining is based on the idea that different foods require different lengths of time to digest, and involve different stomach enzymes in the digestive process. Eat foods that digest well together.
    Eat Enough High-Fiber Foods
    The body needs enough fiber to process waste through the digestive system.
    Try to Cut Down on Meat
    Meat is slow to digest; a vegetarian diet is generally more easily digested, so consider eating more vegetarian meals.
    Cut out Sugar
    Sugar interferes with the pre-digestive actions of saliva, which makes the digestive of starchy foods in particular more difficult.
    Cut down on Pepper
    Too much pepper can be an irritant to the digestive system. Use Sparingly.
    Reduce intake of Beverages
    Toxins from drinking large amounts of hot tea and coffee accumulate and weaken your digestive power. Drink herbal teas rather than stimulants.
    Don’t over-eat
    Do not indulge and over eat especially spicy, oily foods and sweets. Rather take small meals at regular intervals.
    Don’t rush your meals

    When you eat in a hurry you don’t have time to chew your foods properly . Hurrying through your food also leads to overeating.
    Do not eat dinner just before sleeping
    A golden rule to good digestion is to finish eating 2-3 hours before going to bed and let the stomach also rest with your body.
    Don’t do heavy exercises immediately after eating
    Heavy exercises after meals can actually be harmful and divert energy from the digestive process.
    Give your stomach a rest
    Wait for your stomach to digest the contents from the previous meal before eating again. This also gives time to replenish the digestive juices and enzymes.
    Improve your Posture
    Poor posture can restrict blood flow and cramp the digestive tract. Maintain good posture. Some specific yoga asanas can help you improve your posture and balance your digestive system.
    Observe a short-term Fast
    This is one way to allow the digestive system a well deserved break. Drink plenty of fruit and Vegetable juices during your Fast.
