Sins of Old Age

My heart goes out to all people over the age of 75 who once lived life king size, but today they have no aim and purpose in life. Nor do they have the will to survive because of the immense pain and shame that they go through.

Pain as their organs refuse to function properly and every day a new problem crops up.

Shame as they have lost all privacy, right from their bathing to visits to the loo to their eating is done with the aid of nurses or attendants.

Not sure if its right to use the term FAD for this trend of Day and Night Attendants as its more out of Necessity than fashion that you hire them.

Unfortunate for their relatives who can do nothing but ensure and try to keep them as comfortably as possible. it takes a lot of patience to deal with all of this.

Whats is God's intention behind it but I hope its for a good reason.

Still thinking why things have to take this Turn.

Really Upset

Ghee Ayurveda!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There was a time I used to detest Ghee and call it yucky until i realized its health benefits, not one but many.


Benefits of Ghee Include:

1. Ghee stimulates the secretion of stomach acids to help with digestion, while other fats, such as butter and oils, slow down the digestive process and can sit heavy in the stomach.
2. It is said to make your Skin Glow!!!!!!!!!
3. It is rich with antioxidants and acts as an aid in the absorption of vitamins and minerals from other foods
4. Ghee is said to promote learning and increased memory retention
5. Ghee benefits those who are lactose intolerant because ghee is lactose free, Ghee is also Salt free
6. Contains CLA or conjugated linolenic acid which helps to promote weightloss and aids in getting rid of belly fat so its a mith that Ghee chopti rottis will make you fat :)
7. Its said to improve longevity though not proved 100% true yet
8. Ghee is said to have anti-cancer and anti-viral properties.
9. Ghee is recommended for internal body cleaning. A teaspoon or two when taken with hot water in the morning would immediately induce bowel movement. When taken before bedtime, it could help normalize and smoothen the bowel flow in the morning.Read more: http://www.articlesbase.com/health-articles/qualities-and-benefits-of-ghee-ayurveda-1244812.html#ixzz0yHkaWzuR

Best is Ghee doesnt burn easily. If you're the kind of person who burns everything that you cook then you have probably burned butter in the past. You are not likely to have that problem with ghee.

Food and Me

My jaundice some 2 years back has changed my attitude towards food and now eating is a more concious activity rather that mindless gobbling. I have been reading a lot on the internet, to the point of being called insane by friends and family. but I continue to do so as I seem to enjoy the fact there is so much unkown to me at this point in time about our body and the food we eat.this is an effort to put most of my learning in one place readily available for a quick read whenever required.I hope I do justice to my findings and my health!!!!!!!!!!!

Good Luck :)
Love SuA
