Thanks for sharing.
Antioxidant is the way for prevent cancer and anti aging too. Most of the cosmetics are selling based on this point.

I love to take fresh fruits and veges to increase the antioxidant agents in my body in order to be healthy.

This articles doesn’t touch much on fresh fruits and veges, but only red wines. Unfortunately, I can’t take wine, as I am alcohol allergy which it will make my skin become sensitive and itchy for weeks long, thus I never take any wines, even the beers. I think, just few percentages of alcohol will make me fee like in the hell.

Anti-oxidants are said to retard the signs of aging. i get myanti-oxidants from eating fruits specially apple , pineapple and all kind of citrus fruits specially oranges.
As to veggies, i like them too , but not much. But I am not knowledgeable as to what veggie has the most anti-oxidant, except for brocolli.
Since, I don’t know if I am getting enough anti-oxidant , I take vitamin supplements like Vitamin E , Vit C , as well. as B1612 , and fish oil.

By the way, I have just read a shared post at FB that beer has its own 6 healthy benefits. Some that i can remember are : good for the prevention of dementia , warding off diabetes , and making our bone density in a very good level.

A diet high in antioxidants may reduce the risk of many diseases, including heart disease and certain cancers. Antioxidants scavenge free radicals from the body cells, and prevent or reduce the damage caused by oxidation.
The protective effect of antioxidants continues to be studied around the world. For instance, men who eat plenty of the antioxidant lycopene (found in tomatoes) may be less likely than other men to develop prostate cancer. Lutein, found in spinach and corn, has been linked to a lower incidence of eye lens degeneration and associated blindness in the elderly. Flavonoids, such as the tea catechins found in green tea, are believed to contribute to the low rates of heart disease in Japan.
Sources of antioxidants
Plant foods are rich sources of antioxidants. They are most abundant in fruits and vegetables, as well as other foods including nuts, wholegrains and some meats, poultry and fish.

Good sources of specific antioxidants include:
allium sulphur compounds – leeks, onions and garlic
anthocyanins – eggplant, grapes and berries
beta-carotene – pumpkin, mangoes, apricots, carrots, spinach and parsley
catechins – red wine and tea
copper – seafood, lean meat, milk and nuts
cryptoxanthins – red capsicum, pumpkin and mangoes
flavonoids – tea, green tea, citrus fruits, red wine, onion and apples
indoles – cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, cabbage and cauliflower
isoflavonoids – soybeans, tofu, lentils, peas and milk
lignans – sesame seeds, bran, whole grains and vegetables
lutein – green, leafy vegetables like spinach, and corn
lycopene – tomatoes, pink grapefruit and watermelon
manganese – seafood, lean meat, milk and nuts
polyphenols – thyme and oregano
selenium – seafood, offal, lean meat and whole grains
vitamin A – liver, sweet potatoes, carrots, milk, and egg yolks
vitamin C – oranges, blackcurrants, kiwifruit, mangoes, broccoli, spinach, capsicum and strawberries
vitamin E – vegetable oils (such as wheatgerm oil), avocados, nuts, seeds and whole grains
zinc – seafood, lean meat, milk and nuts
zoochemicals – red meat, offal and fish. Also derived from the plants that animals eat.

Vitamin supplements
There is increasing evidence that antioxidants are more effective when obtained from whole foods, rather than isolated from a food and presented in tablet form – and some supplements can actually increase cancer risk. For instance, vitamin A (beta-carotene) has been associated with a reduced risk of certain cancers, but an increase in others, such as lung cancer in smokers, if vitamin A is purified from foodstuffs. A study examining the effects of vitamin E found that it did not offer the same benefits when taken as a supplement. Also, antioxidant minerals or vitamins can act as pro-oxidants or damaging ‘oxidants’ if they are consumed at levels significantly above the recommended amounts for dietary intake.
A well-balanced diet, which includes consuming antioxidants from whole foods, is best. If you insist on taking a supplement, seek supplements that contain all nutrients at the recommended levels.

Antioxidants come up frequently in discussions about good health and preventing diseases. These powerful substances, which mostly come from the fresh fruits and vegetables we eat, prohibit (and in some cases even prevent), the oxidation of other molecules in the body. The benefits of antioxidants are very important to good health because if free radicals are left unchallenged, they can cause a wide range of illnesses and chronic diseases.

There is a wide range of antioxidants found in nature, and because they are so varied, different antioxidants provide benefits to different parts of the body. For example, beta-carotene (and other carotenoids) is very beneficial to eye health; lycopene is beneficial for helping maintain prostate health; flavonoids are especially beneficial for heart health, and proanthocyanidins are beneficial for urinary tract health.

Of these three, i have vertigo. Though, t’s very rare when it attacks.
The doctor said I should refrain myself from taking out the earwax from my ears which I like doing because it gives me a nice feeling. Thus, since then, I clean my ears after taking a bath with ony the cotton balls but only the outer parts of my ears. I only clean my inner ears once a week.
From then on, I don’t experienc vertigoany anymore.

THAT’S GOOD MA’AM DINA, AT LEAST YOU LEARN THINGS THAT YOU CAN DO ABOUT YOUR CASE.
REGARDING THE CLEANING OF EARS, IT IS ALWAYS AN ADVICE BY DOCTORS TO DO IT ONE OR TWO TIMES A WEEK.
ANYWAYS, THANK YOU FOR THE INFORMATION YOU ADDED ON HOW TO TAKE CARE OF VERTIGO.

People are not focusing on the dangers of bad diet, obesity. If they pushed as hard, half as hard, as they did in ‘anti-smoking’ it would be a good thing.

I think , when one is industrious , doing a lot of houseworks that can be considered exercise, sheor he will get obese. It is the lack of activities along with eating too much of everything that makes one obese.
Obesity is what really makes one have a lot of sicknesses, like diabetes , hypertension to name a few. Once obese, the person even have rhe difficulty to move anymore because they pant when they do succeeding household works. Thus, they get more obese and sicker.
Thus, everyone is enjoined to eat in moderation and see to it that they exercise or do activities that can jiggle any fat that maybe forming in one’s body.

Correction on my comment , for the first sentence it should be ” she or he will NOT get obese. Thank you.

It’s incredible that it lasted only 3 seasons because my memory of it, seems like it lasted much longer. Probably because I really really liked the show. In my mind I probably wanted it to last longer. 🙂
