    When you drive through the national highway in Ilocos province particularly in Ilocos Norte and Ilocos Sur, you can find vendors selling dragon fruits along the national roads waving the fruits to the […]

    • Have heard so much about this exotic fruit and still have yet to taste it. I have never seen it at the grocery store but it will probably be expensive because they would likely have to import it.

      • It was expensive during the first years, but now, with the abundance, the price even goes to $1 per kilo.

    • Interesting to learn about dragon fruit, thanks! I’ve never tried it, and I don’t know if it’s sold here. I’ll have to research that!

      • Try to look for it in your place, the fruit is said to have medicinal capabilities.

    • I had a cactus which looked exactly like the image you have uploaded, with flowers and all but I did not see any fruit.
      I have learnt something new today.

      • There are varieties that only bloom flower but not fruit. The fruit taste good, not so sweet.

    • Love doing it, the feeling of picking that fruit without even care pricking with its thorns.

      Dragon fruit as far as I know is a very nutritious food.It is anti cancer fruit.It is also very expensive fruit,Though I haven’t tasted this fruit, somehow, I long to buy and taste this fruit. This is a rare fruit in our city. I only saw this kind one time.It was sold by a farm owner of dragon fruit.That time was the supposed best time for me to buy, but that was a Sunday and I was about to attend the mass. When i went out after the mass was over, gone was the big truck selling dragon fruits.

    • Really? I’ve never been heared about dragon fruits but i hope one day i can go to ilocos all the way from manila and see the hystorical place in Vigan. I think Vigan is one of Philippines’ most beautiful
      cities, as it showcases the Spanish heritage of
      the country.

    • This reminds of my first time eating this fruit. It was added on a fruit shake that I bought in our school. It kinda tasted like watermelon while the seeds were like nuts.

    • Really dragon fruit is one of the best and sweet fruit in Pataya and along with it is most useful for heath. I gives many benefits to human health. As…
      Dragon Fruit Cholesterol
      Keeping a heart healthy low cholesterol diet? Don’t worry about your cholesterol Dragon fruit cholesterol is not an issue. Dragon fruit is both low in cholesterol and has little to no unhealthy cholesterol producing fats (certain fats which are metabolized to cholesterol contribute to increased cholesterol levels more than even cholesterol itself in food sources of cholesterol).

      Dragon Fruit Vitamin C
      The amount of vitamin C in dragon fruit is high, and because the dragon fruit is a natural fruit providing you with a rich balance of nutrients coming along with the vitamin C, you absorb the Vitamin C in dragon fruit efficiently when you eat dragon fruit as part of your fruit healthy diet.

      Dragon Fruit Antioxidants
      Eat dragon fruit as a good natural source of anti-oxidants which help to prevent the dangers of free radicals which can cause cancer and other undesirable health detriments.The number, quantity, and variety of antioxidants in real foods like dragon fruit is completely unmatched by any food supplement or pills – even those claiming to have ‘antioxidant’ health benefits.

      Nothing compares to the rich array of nutrients and antioxidants in a real natural food like the dragon fruit. Forget about junk foods and processed foods, as they are poison not foods! Even though a supplement claiming to offer a high amount of antioxidant benefits may sound good, the fact is that foods like dragon fruit have literally thousands of varieties of antioxidant substances and the supplement likely will contain only one (e.g. vitamin E supplements).

      Taking a single megadose of a single antioxidant compound may in fact cause harm or be toxic! Stick with dragon fruit antioxidant sources and other fresh fruits and vegetables and avoid trying to take a shortcut through a pill.

      Dragon fruit nutritional benefits also include the levels of dragon fruit antioxidants – the antioxidants in dragon fruit are numerous and varied.

    SuperD wrote a new post, Beware of Theft This Rainy Season 8 years ago

    Beware of robbers and theft this rainy season, they are everywhere chancing the heavy rains to climb the rooftop and walk like a cat that their feet cannot be felt by the owners of the house they are […]

    • That is true, many criminals do their dirty jobs during the height of heavy rain. so they won’t be notice.

    • Even if sunny or rainy theres a lot of criminals roaming out there like a lion looking for someone to devour. We should always check our house before going to sleep if all doors are tightly closed and we should be extra careful to trust a virtual stranger knocking at home. You could also installed a cctv camera to monitor the surrounding around your house if there is a intruder coming in. Always call the police for help.

    • Good thing we have a dog in our house. She’ll bark if someone comes in. Keeping a guard dog can go a long way, considering that they can help protect your house at times of need.

    • Rainy days ar3 very tricky for many people. In our country sometimes people dread sleeping at night for feet of being attacked when it is raining coz that’s when thugs take advantage of the situation. But nowadays it is not as rampant as it used to be before. We have all kinds of security measures that have been out in place to avoid thuggery, but all in all thugs will always be thugs if they want to steal that will steal it’s only God who watches over us.

    • You say right in rainy season most of the criminal roam in the street and roads to make robbery in the stores and shops because nobody come out their homes in the rainy season. But is it not the fault of rain but our society if full of criminals.

      As we see in Saudi Arabia there is no robbery in rainy season or out of rainy season because in Saudi Arabia laws are most strict for any crime. If anyone is caught making theft or any other crime his anon hanged among the public. You can watch videos on U Tube how to cut off the head of the criminals among the mass.

      That is why in European countries there is no hard punishment for the criminals who make theft. That is why criminal and culprits are at large in making thefts easily because they know they will be released after some years.

      It is the fault of political parties that do not make strict laws for criminal and culprits. In Saudi Arabia if becomes any robbery and does not find the police the Saudi Government pays the damages anon to the victims.

    Just last night it was raining hard that the road in front in of our home flooded. Then this morning it was so hot that at around 8:30 in the morning the sun rays are pricking to my skin. Then this afternoon the […]

    • Part of me gets happy when the weather reports that there is a hurricane. I’m happy for the rain or the water. But I get very happy if it by the time it reaches landfall it has died down enough not to do any real damage.

    • La Nina is a phenomenon which waters in the equatorial regions of the Pacific Ocean are unseasonably cool. The cooler waters affect the atmosphere above the ocean, causing significant changes in climate, though usually not as significant as the changes that occur during an El Niño. As a result of heavy rain clouds and trade winds it may effect into any form of calamities like heavy rain fall, flash flood, and landslide. We must be responsible to take care of mother nature and used our natural resource in a very convenient way without destroying its value.

    SuperD wrote a new post, Why I Consider Them As Heroes? 8 years ago

    Today the Philippines is celebrating the National Heroes Day. The day is to honor the war veterans and the Filipinos who fought for the freedom of the country during the World War 2 and the war before that […]

    • Indeed there are heroes apart from war heroes who help make a country strong.

    • I think I have heard of this day. Is it also called the Day of Valor?

    • You have missed to mention the parents, the mothers who have raised these men and women. Because of them, the heroes of today are made. The values they have learned from their parents. The attitudes that they possess in treating their fellow beings. Their traits of being polite, courteous and religious are all influenced by their parents.

      I may consider my father as the hero in our family. Because of him, we were all educated. We had our education and professional which we’re proud of having them. My father is the best example we have in our family. No wonder why that we consider him the hero of our own family.

      My mother is another heroine. She is working side by side with my father in rearing up and making us a law-abiding citizen of our community. She has taught us to be reverent and prayerful in all our undertaking. She has led us to be obedient, to be responsible for our own good. She has served as our model of righteousness.

      They are our heroes. If they are living today, we would be glad to give them the best honor which the sons and daughter could give to their parents.

    SuperD wrote a new post, Rain Is Important To Farmers 8 years ago

    The farmer must have pray so hard. This is some of the comforting words of the villagers when the rain never wanted to stop again. It’s been raining in the Ilocos Region since yesterday, just like the o […]

    • I think rain is extremely important to everyone whether you ar3 a farmer or not. The only thing I can say is that rain in th3 city sometimes can be a nuisance to the residents there because it ripples up a lot of things. Like for example when you think about driving to work in the morning or evening you will always be caught up in the jam, meaning you have to wake up extremely early to get to work on time, then you have to sacrifice something’s because you will leave the office late and get home late. So this are some of the inconveniences that people have to go through in th3 city when it rains. In fact most people in my country would rather use public means to get to where they’re going as opposed to using their cars, because you and up using too much petrol on the roads stuck in jams. For th3 farmer in the village to him rain is a blessing just like you ha e said. That is what they want and need so that their crops do not for it either in the hot sun. And we all know that when there is no rain food is a little bit scarce and it becomes very expensive. So when it rains they know that at th3 and of the day they will at least sell their produce and be able to take care of their families and also get some income out of it. So either way rain helps people in different ways there are those who do taxi business that’s also an opportunity for them to make money during those days. People ask willing to pay some extra money just to be dropped at their door step without having to hassle for public means.

    • rain is most important for all of us because it is rain that irrigates our land where there is no well water or electric pump water. It is most important for farmers in the villages and mountains where there is no way to plant the field.

      Rain is the means by which fresh water is created; when it evaporates, water leaves behind its salt. … Rain fills aquifers, and it keeps rivers and lakes filled.

      Humans depend on fresh water for survival. While it is possible to remove salt from ocean water through a process called desalinization, it is expensive, and the cost of transporting water inland is prohibitively costly. Rain fills aquifers, and it keeps rivers and lakes filled. Forms of life that depend on rivers would not have evolved without rain.

      Rain has a number of effects on the environment. Many canyons and other natural features were shaped by rainwater eroding surfaces. The Grand Canyon was created by a river, which was fueled by rainfall. Many species of life in the ocean depend on minerals that flow from the land to the sea. Without rainwater, they would not be able to survive.

      We cannot neglect the importance of rain in human life on earth. We must be thankful to God for rain.
