Unfortunately during times of desperation, people may just try anything. So sad!
It really annoys me when people make up weird remedies to take advantage of the less fortunate (i.e. for fun/profit).

http://my.news.yahoo.com/papaya-tree-leaves-a-way-to-cure-dengue-062124867.html Here’s what it is: While we know that the papaya fruit is a great source of vitamins A and C, its leaves hold the possible answer to treating
dengue fever.
This is what a group of Malaysian researchers have found: juice extracted from papaya leaves helps increase the platelet count in patients with dengue fever. To put this in perspective, there has been no real cure to a serious dengue infection to date.
Dengue has plagued Malaysia since 2002, with a whopping 20,000 case reported last year.

WASHINGTON (AFP) - – Long suspected of causing brain tumors, mobile phones are now being eyed as key allies in the fight against Alzheimer's disease, US researchers said Wednesday in a study.
Researchers at the University of South Florida (USF) found, to their surprise, that 96 mice they zapped twice daily for an hour each time with electromagnetic waves similar to those generated by US mobile (cellular) phones benefited from the exposure.
Long-term exposure to the electromagnetic waves in mobile phones wiped out deposits of beta-amyloid -- a protein fragment that accumulates in the brain of Alzheimer's sufferers to form the disease's signature plaques -- in older mice and improved their memories, the study published in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease showed.
Young adult mice with no apparent signs of memory impairment were protected against Alzheimer's disease after several months' exposure to the mobile phone waves, and the memories of normal mice with no genetic predisposition for Alzheimer's disease were boosted after exposure to the electromagnetic waves.
No one was more surprised than the researchers themselves, who had embarked on the tests several years ago, convinced they would show "that the electromagnetic fields from a cell phone would be deleterious to Alzheimer's mice," lead author Gary Arendash, a USF professor, told AFP.

According to the National Cancer Institute, there is now enough data to show that people who consume large amounts of tomatoes and tomato products have a significantly decreased risk for prostate, lung, and stomach cancer. There is some evidence that people who consume a lot of tomatoes may also have a lower risk of pancreatic, colorectal, esophageal, oral, breast, and cervical cancers.
We do not know for sure how or why tomatoes help against cancers. The consensus seems to be thatlycopenes, bioflavonoids that are closely related to beta carotene, present
in tomatoes are the natural cancer-fighting agents responsible. Cooking releases the fat-soluble lycopenes from the fruits' cells. In fact, cooking tomatoes rather than eating them raw has been shown to more than double the effectiveness of the lycopene tomatoes contain. A small amount of added oil, such as that in pizza or tomato sauce, intensifies the protective effect.
Numerous other potentially beneficial compounds are present in tomatoes, and, conceivably, complex interactions among multiple components may contribute to the anticancer properties of tomatoes.
Coronary Heart Diseases:Studies have shown that consuming tomatoes and tomato products containing lycopene reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease. The tomato help to dissolve animal fat in foods such as in butter, cheese, eggs, pork, beef, and many deep-fried foods, thereby preventing hardening of the arteries. Tomato is also useful in reducing high blood pressure, a major risk factor for coronary heart diseases and stroke.
Lycopene, present in abundance in red tomatoes, is a potent antioxidant. Recent research has demonstrated that lycopene is at least twice as effective as b-carotene in protecting blood lymphocytes from NO2 radical damage. Lycopene is found to reduce LDL oxidation more effectively than beta-carotene. Scientists have found that a combination of lycopene with vitamin E prevents LDL oxidation more effectively than each substance separately.
A clinical study showed that Lithuanians who suffered a high rate of mortality from coronary heart disease has a low blood lycopene levels.
In one clinical trial, 6 healthy males were given 60 mg of lycopene daily for a three month period. Their plasma LDL cholesterol concentration reduced by 14%. Thus, in addition to protecting LDL from oxidation, tomato's lycopene also inhibits cholesterol synthesis. Tomatoes Reduces High Blood Pressure (Hypertension)
Potassium is very important for the kidneys. Potassium was found to reduce high blood pressure. One jumbo tomato (approximately 3 inches in diameter and weighing about 7 oz.) contains nearly 450 mg. of potassium.
Eye Irritation: To relieve bloodshot eyes, Chinese doctors suggest eating 1 or 2 fresh tomatoes first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. Scientists believe that the Vitamin C and flavonoids in the tomatoes strengthen the blood vessels.
Tomato Cleanses and Rejuvenates the skin:Tomato is excellent for cleaning and rejuvenating the skin. We will give three applications: in a face peel, as a mask and in a cleansing grain. Later we will show how it can be used to restore skin damaged by sunburn.
Face Peels:Tomato is excellent for a face peel that loosens the top layer of dead skin cells and rub them off. It is good for all types of skins. Rub tomato slices directly into your clean skin, concentrating on areas infested with blockheads. Tomatoes contain vitamin C, which has healing powers, and an acid that removes dead skin and unplugs pores, making skin soft and radiant.
Tomato Mask:Slice a ripe tomato as thin as possible. Lie down and close your eyes. Apply the slices to your face. Wait 10 to 15 minutes. Let the juices seep into
your skin. After the 10 to 15 minutes are up, use a slice to rub the juices further into the skin. The tomato works as a face peel, removing all dead, dry skin and leaving your face soft, glossy, and smooth. Rub off the excess tomato, leaving the residue on your skin. The mild natural acidity of the tomato restores the ph balance of your skin.
Tomato-Almond Meal Grains:For tougher face cleaning applications a more abrasive and effective mixture may be needed. Add almond slices into a blender. Pulverize. Add an equal amount of mashed ripe tomato. Mix well. Apply over the area of the skin you
want. This cleansing grain removes rough dead skin cells, and makes the skin smooth. It is also effective against blockheads. This will work against even the most stubborn areas around the nose and chin. It stimulates circulation and restores the color of sallow, tired skin. Remove the mixture with cool water or wipe it off,
leaving a coating of the natural oils and juices.
Caution:This is very abrasive. Use with caution. When skin is sensitive due to too much sun, eruptions, or abrasions, wait until the problems have gone. Use no more than twice a week, only once if it tend to irritate.
Healing Sunburn:Proponents say that tomatoes are useful for healing sunburn. Tomato can be used to transform a painful sunburn into a modest tan. Soak peeled tomato slices in buttermilk. Apply them directly on the skin affected. It will close up the pores and relieve the pain. Alternately, make a puree out of thinly peeled tomatoes. Add a little buttermilk (don't add too much; it will make the mixture runny.) Spread this mixture over the sunburned skin. This will give a tan over the spot where the sunburn used to be!
Restores the Health of the Liver: Tomatoes play a key role in liver health. Russian doctors prescribe tomatoes in the diets of factory workers exposed to toxic chemical. Tomatoes are useful detoxifiers because of the presence of chlorine and sulphur, two very important detoxifying trace elements. 100 grams of uncooked tomato contains
51 mg. of chlorine and 11 mg. of sulphur.
Natural chlorine helps to stimulate the liver. It assists liver in its task as an important filter for body wastes. Tomato also assists the liver in removing the toxic waste products from the system.
Sulphur helps to protect the liver from cirrhosis and other debilitating conditions.
Drinking fresh tomato juice can help to regenerate the
damaged, destroyed or surgically removed liver.
Tomatoes help promote the health and well-being of liver. "A tomato a day, keeps the liver in good stay!," according to John Heinerman, noted author and herbalist.

Enoki Mushroom Prevents Cancer Also known as: Velvet Shank Mushrooms
Golden-needle-mushroom (Jin-Gen-Goo) successfully kills 95% of cancer cells ( Taiwan Report) (Hokkien KIM CHIAM KOR)
Research done by Singapore U shows that eating this mushroom can destroy 95% of cancer cells in our body by boosting our immune system.
Professor Phan Hwai Chong of Yang Ming Research Centre in Taiwan told reporter that consuming this kind of mushroom, one of the ingredients in the mushroom can trigger the multiplication of our healthy 'defensive' cells. By out-numbering the cancers cells, healthy cells help eradicate cancer cells.
American scientists have since run tests on this particular type of mushroom extract with blood, done outside hum! an body. Results show that mushroom extract is able to destroy c ancer cells.
According to Taiwan professor, since healthy 'fighting' cells can be multiplied to tens & thousands of times, it can either be used as drip or just by eating mushroom.
The mushroom is most frequently taken with steam boat. Cooking time should be less than 3 minutes, or the healing property would greatly diminish.
Normal eating for Health:-
Preparation, uses, and tips: Before using enoki mushrooms, rinse them thoroughly and trim off the roots at the base of the cluster. Enoki mushrooms can be eaten raw or cooked.. Add them to salads, sandwiches, soups, pasta sauces, and stir-fried rice and vegetable dishes. To retain the delicate flavor of the mushrooms, add them at the end of the cooking process.
Buying and storing tips: When purchasing fresh enoki mushrooms, select mushrooms with firm, white, shiny caps. Avoid purchasing enoki mushrooms with slimy or brownish stalks. Enoki mushrooms keep up to 14 days in the refrigerator if stored in a paper bag.
(you should try storing veggies or fruits in those aluminum foil bags that you throw away if you do buy Milo or quaker oats in packages type; it seems they can keep them longer and fresher; test to confirm??? Keep one end open and not seal it tight.) !
Varieties: Most commercially available enoki mushrooms are the pale white cultivated variety.

Too late, many people have already used it. Also, there are many repeaters, routers all around us. Wireless internet, handphone etc all have radiation. Even if we don't use it, our neighbours are using it. If it is close range, then it can be avoided. If it is exposure, then no way we can avoid.

 How broccoli prevents heart attacks |
 |
Broccoli has long been thought to be good for your heart and now British scientists think they know why. Researchers at Imperial College London have found evidence that a chemical in broccoli and other green leafy vegetables could boost a natural defence mechanism that protects arteries from clogging - the cause of heart attacks.
In a study funded by the British Heart Foundation charity and conducted on mice, the researchers found that sulforaphane - a compound occurring naturally in broccoli - could 'switch on' a protective protein which is inactive in parts of the arteries vulnerable to clogging.

The link between increased vitamin D and faster information processing "was more significant in men aged over 60 years old, although the biological reasons for this remain unclear," read the report, to appear in the Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery and Psychiatry.
The study, conducted by researchers from the University of Manchester, in collaboration with other European specialists, compared the cognitive performance of more than 3,000 men between the ages of 40 and 79 years.
The main source of vitamin D is 10 to 15 minutes daily exposure to sunlight. Oily fish are also an excellent source of vitamin D.
A separate 2008 study by researchers in Amsterdam showed that a lack of vitamin D could increase the risk of depression or other psychiatric problems among older people.

SHANGHAI, April 23, 2009 (AFP) - A major Chinese meat processor has recalled 100 boxes of luncheon meat containing a banned chemical, Chinese media reported Thursday.
China Yurun Food Group destroyed the products, made of unspecified minced meat from a Chinese slaughterhouse, the National Business Daily said, citing the provincial quality watchdog and an unnamed Yurun official.
An official with Yurun's public relations agency declined to comment when contacted by AFP, saying only that the Hong Kong-listed company would be issuing a statement.
The meat was contaminated with clenbuterol, a drug often given to people to treat asthma, but also commonly used to cut body fat.
Farmers in China have been known to feed pigs clenbuterol to reduce their fat, but it is banned as a food additive because it can be fatal to humans. State media reported in March that police in China arrested nine people for selling pigs that were fed the chemical, after at least 70 people fell ill.
One of the worst cases involving clenbuterol occurred in Shanghai in 2006 when 336 people were hospitalised after eating pig meat or organs contaminated with the drug, state media reports have said.
The reputation of China's poorly regulated and corruption-plagued food industry has taken repeated hits in recent years, with people dying from eating tainted products at home and contaminated exports being found overseas.

Just for infomation sharing: In South Korea had found high level of melamine in China Vegetables, pesticide was likely to be blamed. In China's Caijing business magazine as saying, experts had discoverd melamine in Chinese agricultural products like mushrooms were found to contain as much as 17mg of melamine per kg. (no wonder all vegetables look more and more like spastic, less and less worm around..err best way is to grow vege backyard.)
S'pore's Agri-Food and Veterinnary Authority (AVA) said. An adult can safely consume 0.63mg of melamine per kg of body weighteveryday as according to standands set by the U.S. food and drug administration. Melamine is a by-product of the aproved pesticide, cyromazine.
AVA had in place programme to inspect the pesticide levels on imported fruits and vegetables. Those fail the test would not be allow for sale here.
Maybe this forum can help...Ya. Pls read with a pin...of salt, not all is suitable for one body system. Hope it help.
