    That photo you put it, its pinakbet, isn’t it? Anyway, I love chicken curry and fried chicken and probably I will name them because its the popular version of our recipe. But more than that I also love our local version which we call “pinikpikan”. It is a soup based chicken cut into tiny pieces including the internals and saute with fish sauce.

    It’s not that I don’t like local cuisine because I have had much of it in our region. So when I have choices, let me pick the western cuisine for me to have a taste of their good food, great taste and the yumminess in every bite that I can have. So I guess, the answer is clear, YES.

    bestwriter wrote a new post, Simple Memory Enhancers 8 years, 1 month ago

    I am a senior and I give credit to online writing sites that give my brain a good exercise keeping it alert and sharp. I search for information and produce good articles. Once the article goes live I look at the […]

    • Yes. I do accept that memory loss may be due to many problems like diseases, vitamin deficiency, improper bone growth, improper diet, depression etc.
      Nearly 90-92 cases constituting Insomnia, obsessive anger, high blood pressure, memory loss, Alzheimers are due to only depression as per the Massicheutus University study report.

      Of all the memory 53% people approach a doctor with a complaint of low memory .

      The only tool to halt this problem is meditation. The study report says that this is the meditation that has got the power to control depression.

      How to do it?
      Just take a mantra or a word of any deity of your choice and recite it for 10 times regularly. It will control the brain reaction to the weird problems.

      Besides this, taking a good food can also work as an effective tool.

      Taking Almonds, using herbs like Belladonna, Saraswati Churna etc. will definitely control the memory loss.

      • Thanks for adding more tools. Keeping our mind active to my mind is one of the best ways besides ofcourse eating the right kind of food.

    • I know that people who use brain and sharpen it with any activity that includes thinking, observing and memory have their brains not only trained but also maintain mental health longer.

    • When we look around and see those who are inflicted with bad memory they are those who never exercise their brain.

    • My kids love to play the card games, they just enjoy it without care about any intention. However, for the aging group, these kid of card games or even Mahjong, which is famous in Chinese group, heard can help them in brain exercise, thus prevent memory loss or Alzheimer’s disease.

      However, I believe, physical exercise with sweating, i.e at least 30 minutes per section can help in making our mind fresh and healthy, and enhancing our memory power.

    • Hello.Thank you very much its a very useful information you shared with us.Mostly we dont know how to overcome these problems and now a days most of the people i my self has the same problem.I hope your tips will be useful for me.

    Even food differentiates between the rich and the poor. I have a plant that grows profusely in my garden and I was told that it is packed with nutrients. When I asked my gardener to fetch me a few leaves and that […]

    • Sweet Potatoe is very rich in Iron which is very useful for Red Blood cells in the body. It is not a vegetable preferred by Scheduled castes and Scheduled Tribe people. Everybody likes it very much.

      The correct method of cooking is to boil it along with Jaggery. Jaggery is also rich in Iron. One works on blood cells and the other improves the flow of blood.

    • I like to eat sweet potato cooked in jaggery and coconut. Sweet potato was considered food of the poor once upon a time.

    • i love sweet potato even when I was a child, and until now I still eat kamote– I read a book that sweet potato is good for ulcer. There are more than varieties of sweet potato as I see it everyday, that includes the yellow, purple and even the skin have different colors also, it also differs with sizes. There are sweet potato best for its young leaves though most are for it root crop. My favorite is the yellow skin with an orange color, this is the sweetest kind of them.

    • You heard Oprah Winfrey singing the praises of the sweet potato? I was watching a TV chef cooking contest and the chefs were invited to pick anything from the White House garden and prepare it for the judges. The chefs also met with First Lady Michelle Obama – she’s the reason there is a White House veggie garden – and one of the chefs asked if she had a “favorite” from the garden. Guess what she said? Sweet potato! Not just a fave her but for her whole family. I love sweet potato too!

    • Sweet potatoes are VERY common in the US as a dish to eat, and they are sold on every corner in every grocery store, even way before Oprah said anything about them.

      They are a very common dish. People eat sweet potatoes all the time, especially around November for Thanksgiving where there are thousands and thousands of sweet potato pies sold and eaten during this season. Which reminds me, I need to go and get some for myself soon!

    • Thank peach, my co- teacher had a mild stroke last week. She just fell down on the floor while writing some lessons on board. She was brought to hospital and was told she has a mild stroke.Thus time her palm cannot be open well and her lip was deformed.It will be better for us to know the symptoms like these you presented here, so helpful. My co teacher has just turned 44 last month.She loves to eat pork chop anything about pork.

    • yes. The symptoms of stroke should be known to everyone. This is a very useful post.
      I had bitter experience with my mother when she got a stroke. She developed pain suddenly. She was admitted to a hospital. She was recovering. The Doctor once again checked her and advised some diet and got down the stairs. Suddenly my mother started getting vomiting. There was no one. I immediately rushed to the Doctor and informed about it. He took some time. In the meanwhile when there was nothing to collect the Vomit I kept my both hands and collected it. Mother was looking at me. I do not know the meaning of her feeling. I did it as a son. I never hesitated for anything. She was my mother.

      When I took her to another hospital the Doctor advised me not to allow her to drink coffee.

      One should be more careful with a stroke.

      The symptoms are
      A Sudden headache, Chest pain, exasperation, numbness to any part of the body, giddiness, faltering walk,sweating.

      One should know about Defibrillator. One should know how to use it. It saved many people from heart stroke.

    • My dad also suffered a stroke in 2012 he had bleeding on brain I have helped him with physio speech ot I had too as I couldn’t get him for excercise you learn a lot from google stroke patients are very difficult people to look after specially if they are stubborn I have looked after him 5 years he can talk quite a lot but he has expressive aphasia so sometimes words dont come out propely but can’t open his hand or walk yet any ideas of excercises that I can give him

    • Before going on a foreign holiday we all have to go through medical check ups. I was referring to short term irritants that can affect our health due to lack of proper planni
      ng.

    • yes. A good list giving almost all the required and essential items. Above all health is the first and foremost factor which one should pay attention to before taking up a travel to foreign countries. A healthy person can get along with any kind of situation and can come out successfully. It is here most of the people fail to pay proper attention and they will have all sad memories of their travel experiences.

      But, getting a companion of equal tastes, hobbies, and habits is the most important among all. But the chances for getting a good companion are only 2-5%. You can get anything . You can manage anything by saving. But you can not get a good companion. It is always your luck and depends on how you reciprocate with others during a tour. So do not build any expectations regarding this aspect. You have to search for a good friend or companion while you are on the go only.

    • This is nice info for I will travel to NZ next week and may apply this.It is true that while on waiting mood , passengers just keep on sitting making the body heavy,blood not circulated well. That is the usual feeling when body is idle.It just keeps on staying idle and after few minutes may drowse. It is so important to do some simple steps to alleviate the boredom and body idleness that may lead to unhappy travel.

    Not all are blessed with the gift of joy while giving. It is not necessary that one must have loads of money to give nor loads of time to spend with the needy.
    Having said that a word about need and want. The […]

    • You have the right definition of what it means reaching out to the needy.

    • I feel the same way I wish I could help so many people out and it feels like if I don’t have the time it’s almost like I don’t have the extra money to give out makes me feel so bad at times

      • Money is not the only way in which help can be extended. There are so many opportunities we get to reach out. Even a kind word can make a difference.

    • yes. Need is a continuous activity. But a want is an emotional phenomenon that starts after the minimum needs are fulfilled.

      Once a man’s needs are fulfilled he looks for wants. At the same time, he becomes financially independent. This means the chances of getting help become narrow. But, our social and political system do not encourage it. It is their attitude and wants to see that a person’s wants are never fulfilled. They should continue their lives at the mercy of friends, daughter, in lawsetc.,

      • TBoth the government and social workers prefer if people are always in need so that they get to ‘tower’ over them.

    • I am a lifetime member of YMCA and Y’s Men’s Club international,I am trained to extend help to the needy. I also feed street children every Christmas. I never hesitate to donate goods and clothing to victims of flood. I was once the President of the Rotaract Club during college and training to help the poor started during my young life which until now those never depart from me. I love humanity.Children and old are helpless, they are what God wants to be helped by active humans.
