The last thing Arthur wanted anyone to know is that he prefers to treat his hemorrhoids with apple cider vinegar. Just a little dab on the affected area three or four times a day brings him relief. Unfortunately, Arthur's online searches for information on hemorrhoids and apple cider resulted in targeted ads which allowed all of Camelot to put two and two together. Now, even Lancelot rubs his butt every time Arthur walks by.

There are cancers that are curable and treatable when they’re caught early. An example of a cancer that is preventable is colon cancer. If a person has regular colonoscopies and rectal exams, they can be caught almost a hundred percent of the time before it becomes invasive. We’ve seen a lot of cases where a person has rectal bleeding and the doctor says it’s just hemorrhoids and later on finds out that it is colon cancer but it’s too late. We’ve also seen a lot of misdiagnosis of breast cancer where the doctor misreads a mammogram or they didn’t know that anybody with a breast lump needs a biopsy and the patient dies because of the delay in diagnosis.

Jus to check this out.......

The Organs of your body have their sensory touches at the bottom of your

foot, if you massage these points you will find relief from aches and pains

as you can see the heart is on the left foot.

 

[image: []]

 

Typically they are shown as points and arrows to show which organ it

connects to.

 

It is indeed correct since the nerves connected to these organs terminate

here.

 

This is covered in great details in Acupressure studies or textbooks.

 

God created our body so well that he thought of even this. He made us walk

so that we will always be pressing these pressure points and thus keeping

these organs activated at all times.

 

So, keep walking...

Does Your Blood Type Reveal Your Personality?

 

Accord ing to a Japanese institute that does research on blood types, there

are certain personality traits that seem to match up with certain blood

types. How do you rate?

 

*TYPE O*

 

You want to be a leader, and when you see something you want, you keep

striving until you achieve your goal. You are a trend-setter, loyal,

passionate, and self-confident. Your weaknesses include vanity and jealously

and a tendency to be too competitive.

 

*TYPE A*

 

You like harmony, peace and organization. You work well with others, and are

sensitive, patient and affectionate. Among your weaknesses are stubbornness

and an inability to relax.

 

*TYPE B*

 

You're a rugged individualist, who's str aightforwa rd and likes to do

things your own way. Creative and flexible, you adapt easily to any

situation. But your insistence on being independent can sometimes go too far

and become a weakness.

 

*TYPE AB*

 

Cool and controlled, you're generally well liked and always put people at

ease. You're a natural entertainer who's tactful and fair. But you're

standoffish, blunt, and have difficulty making decisions.

...* DRINK WATER ON EMPTY STOMACH*

It is popular in Japan today to drink water immediately after waking up

every morning. Furthermore, scientific tests have proven a its value. We

publish below a description of use of water for our readers. For old and

serious diseases as well as modern illnesses the water treatment had been

found successful by a Japanese med ical society as a 100% cure for the

following diseases:

 

Headache, body ache, heart system, arthritis, fast heart beat, epilepsy,

excess fatness, bronchitis asthma, TB, meningitis, kidney and urine

diseases, vomiting, ga str itis, diarrhea, piles, diabetes, constipation,

all eye diseases, womb, cancer and ear nose and throat diseases. *

 

METHOD OF TREATMENT*

 

1. As you wake up in the morning *before brushing teeth*, drink 4 x 160ml

glasses of water .....interesting

 

2. Brush and clean the mouth but do not eat or drink anything for 45 minutes

 

3. After 45 minutes you may eat and drink as normal.

 

4. After 15 minutes of breakfast, lunch and dinner do not eat or drink

anything for 2 hours

 

5. Those who are old or sick and are unable to drink 4 glasses of water at

the beginning may commence by taking little water and gradually increase it

to 4 glasses per day.

 

6. The above method of treatment will cure diseases of the sick and others

can enjoy a healthy life.

 

The following list gives the number of days of treatment required to

cure/control/reduce main diseases:

 

1. High Blood Pressure - 30 days

 

2. Ga str ic - 10 days

 

3. Diabetes - 30 days

 

4. Constipation - 10 days

 

5. Cancer - 180 days

 

6. TB - 90 days

 

7. Arthritis patients should follow the above treatment only for 3 days in

the 1st week, and from 2nd week onwa rd s - daily.

 

This treatment method has no side effects, however at the commencement of

treatment you may have to urinate a few times.

 

It is better if we continue this and make this procedure as a routine work

in our life.

 

Drink Water and Stay healthy and Active.

 

This makes sense .. The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals

..not cold water. Maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while

eating!!! Nothing to lose, everything to gain...

 

For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you.

 

It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water

will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed . It will slow down

the digestion.

 

Once this 'sludge' reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed

by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine.

Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink

hot soup or warm water after a meal.

 

*

A serious note about heart attacks*: Women should know that not every heart

attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting.

 

Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line.

 

You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart

attack..

 

Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms.

 

60% of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up.

 

Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be

aware. The more we know, the better chance we could survive...

 

A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this mail sends it to everyone they

know, you can be sure that we'll save at least one life.

Η Σπεσιαλιτέ της ημέρας

 

Το πατζάρι είναι το πιο έντονο ζαρζαβατικό. Το ραπανάκι, αναμφίβολα είναι πιο καυστικό, αλλά η κάψα του είναι μια παγερή φωτιά, είναι η καούρα της δυσαρέσκειας, όχι η φλόγα του πάθους. Οι ντομάτες είναι αρκετά εύρωστες κι όμως, τις διαπερνά ένα υπόγειο ρεύμα ελαφρότητας. Τα πατζάρια έχουν μια θανάσιμη σοβαρότητα.

 

Οι Σλάβοι παίρνουν τα φυσικά τους χαρακτηριστικά από τις πατάτες, την υποβόσκουσα ανησυχία τους από τα ραπανάκια και τη σοβαρότητα τους από τα πατζάρια.

 

Το πατζάρι είναι το μελαγχολικό ζαρζαβατικό, το πιο πρόθυμο να υποφέρει. Δεν μπορείς να βγάλεις αίμα στίβοντας ένα γογγύλι...

 

Το πατζάρι είναι ο φονιάς που επιστρέφει στο τόπο του εγκλήματος. Το πατζάρι είναι ό,τι ακριβώς συμβαίνει στο κεράσι όταν συνουσιάζεται μ' ένα καρότο.Το πατζάρι είναι ο αρχαίος πρόγονος του φθινοπωριάτικου φεγγαριού, γενειοφόρο, θαμμένο, αλλά όχι απολιθωμένο, είναι τα βαθυπράσινα πανιά της προσαραγμένης φεγαρόβαρκας ραμμένα με ίνες αρχέγονου πρωτοπλάσματος, είναι το κορδόνι του χαρταετού που κάποτε συνέδεε τη Σελήνη με την Γη, τώρα ένα λασπωμένο γατομούστακο που σκάβει απελπισμένα για ρουμπίνια.

 

Το πατζάρι ήταν το αγαπημένο ζαρζαβατικό του Ρασπούτιν. Μπορούσες να το καταλάβεις εύκολα αν κοι΄τούσες τα μάτια του.

 

Σε πολλά μέρη της Ευρώπης καλλιεργείται ένα μεγάλο πατζάρι, γνωστό σαν μάνγκελ-βούρτσελ.Ίσως είναι το μάνγκελ-βούρτσελ που βλέπουμε στον Ρασπούτιν. Σίγουρα υπάρχει μάνγκελ-βούρτσελ στη μουσική του Βάγκνερ, αν και υπάρχουν κι άλλοι συνθέτες που τ' όνομα τους αρχίζει από Π-α-τ-ζ ή Χ-α-τ-ζ... ή κάποιο άλλο ηχηρό παρόμοιο.

 

Βέβαια, υπάρχουν και λευκά πατζάρια, πατζάρια που σταλάζουν ζαχαρόνερο αντι για αίμα, αλλά εμάς μας απασχολεί το κόκκινο πατζάρι, το είδος εκείνο που κοκκινίζει και φουσκώνει σαν αιμορροΐδα για την οποία δεν υπάρχει θεραπεία. (Στην ουσία, υπάρχει κάποια θεραπεία: παραγγέλνεις σ' έναν αγγειοπλάστη μια κεραμική κωλοτρυπίδα -κι όταν δεν κάθεσαι πάνω της, μπορείς να τη χρησιμοποιείς σαν μπολ για την ταραμοσαλάτα).

 

Μια παλιά Ουκρανική παροιμία λέει προειδοποιητικά: "Ένα παραμύθι που αρχίζει μ' ένα πατζάρι, θα τελειώσει με το διάβολο".

 

Αυτό είναι ένα ρίσκο που πρέπει να το πάρουμε.

Today’s special

  

THE BEET IS THE MOST INTENSE of vegetables.

 

The radish, admittedly, is more feverish, but the fire of the radish is a cold fire, the fire of discontent not

of passion. Tomatoes are lusty enough, yet there runs through tomatoes an undercurrent of frivolity.

Beets are deadly serious.

 

Slavic peoples get their physical characteristics from potatoes, their smoldering inquietude from radishes, their seriousness from beets.

 

The beet is the melancholy vegetable, the one most willing to suffer. You can’t squeeze blood out of a turnip . . .

The beet is the murderer returned to the scene of the crime. The beet is what happens when the cherry

finishes with the carrot. The beet is the ancient ancestor of the autumn moon, bearded, buried, all but

fossilized; the dark green sails of the grounded moon-boat stitched with veins of primordial plasma; the

kite string that once connected the moon to the Earth now a muddy whisker drilling desperately for

rubies.

The beet was Rasputin’s favorite vegetable. You could see it in his eyes.

In Europe there is grown widely a large beet they call themangel-wurzel. Perhaps it ismangel-wurzel

that we see in Rasputin. Certainly there ismangel-wurzel in the music of Wagner, although it is another

composer whose name begins, B-e-e-t——.

Of course, there are white beets, beets that ooze sugar water instead of blood, but it is the red beet with

which we are concerned; the variety that blushes and swells like a hemorrhoid, a hemorrhoid for which

there is no cure. (Actually, there is one remedy: commission a potter to make you a ceramic asshole—

and when you aren’t sitting on it, you can use it as a bowl for borscht.)

An old Ukrainian proverb warns, "A tale that begins with a beet will end with the devil."

That is a risk we have to take.

Culinary uses

 

Persimmons are eaten fresh or dried, raw or cooked. When eaten fresh the peel is usually cut/peeled off and the fruit is often cut into quarters or eaten whole like an apple. The flesh ranges from firm to mushy and the texture is unique. The flesh is very sweet and when firm possesses an apple-like crunch. In China, Korea, Japan, and Vietnam after harvesting, 'Hachiya' persimmons are prepared using traditional hand-drying techniques, outdoors for two to three weeks. The fruit is then further dried by exposure to heat over several days before being shipped to market. In Japan the dried fruit is called Hoshigaki (干し柿),and in Korea, gotgam(hangu;:곶감) and is eaten as a snack or dessert and used for other culinary purposes. The gotgam per is used to make the traditional Korean spicy punch, sujeonggwa, while the matured, fermented fruit is used to make a persimmon vinegar (감식초) that is thought to have a wide variety of holistic properties. The Hoshigaki tradition traveled to California with Japanese American immigrants. A few farms still practice the art, which is being revived in part through the efforts of Slow Food USA, which describes the technique on its site and provides links to producers. [5] [6] In some areas of Manchuria and Korea, the dried leaves of the fruit are used for making tea. The Korean name for this tea is ghamnip cha (감잎차).

The persimmon also figures prominently in American culinary tradition. It can be used in cookies, cakes, puddings, salads and as a topping for breakfast cereal. Persimmon pudding is a dessert using fresh persimmons. An annual persimmon festival, featuring a persimmon pudding contest, is held every September in Mitchell, Indiana. Persimmon pudding is a baked pudding that has the consistency of pumpkin pie but resembles a brownie and is almost always topped with whipped cream. Persimmons may be stored at room temperature (20°C) where they will continue to ripen. It is also a native plant in Brazil, South America, where it is referred to as the Caqui.

 

[edit] Ethnomedical Uses

 

* In traditional Chinese medicine the fruit regulates ch'i

* The raw fruit is used to treat constipation and hemorrhoids, and to stop bleeding. As such, it is not a good idea to consume too many persimmons at once- they can induce diarrhea.

* The cooked fruit is used to treat diarrhea and dysentery

Bulimia Nervosa is an illness in which a person binges on food or has regular episodes of significant overeating and feels a loss of control. The affected person then uses various methods -- such as vomiting or laxative abuse -- to prevent weight gain. Eating binges may occur as often as several times a day for many months. These binges cause a sense of self-disgust, which leads to self-induced vomiting or excessive exercise.

 

Bulimia can be dangerous and may lead to serious medical complications over time. For example, frequent vomiting puts stomach acid in the esophagus (the tube from the mouth to the stomach), which can permanently damage this area.

Possible complications include:

Constipation, Dehydration, Dental cavities, Electrolyte abnormalities, Hemorrhoids, Inflammation of the throat, Pancreatitis and Tears of the esophagus

CURTIS HOWE SPRINGER WAS A self-proclaimed medical doctor and Methodist minister, though in actuality he was licensed to do neither. He was, however, a popular radio evangelist in Pittsburgh in the 1930s, and the founder of Zzyzx Mineral Springs and Healing Center out in the Mojave desert of California.

 

Like many other hucksters of his day, Springer convinced his devoted followers to move out to the West Coast, where he promised a new, utopian way of living and an abundance of miracle cures. At the time, the West Coast had a slight reputation for its questionable businessmen, who built empires out of cheap land, religious fads, and get-rich-quick schemes. Springer was no different, having founded or managed six other failed resorts before striking it rich with Zzyzx.

 

In 1944, Springer, along with his fiancee Helen and their daughter, stumbled upon a “mosquito swamp” in the east Mojave. It was there, in the middle of the desert, where Springer envisioned his utopia. Not surprisingly, he acquired the land by filing a dubious mining claim for 12,000 acres. For the next few months, Springer split his time between the desert and Los Angeles, where he taped radio broadcasts and recruited builders.

 

To find his artisans, Springer bought a large bus and drove down to Skid Row, where he rounded up vagrants and offered them meals and shelter in exchange for construction. Some of the men left when learning of the “no alcohol” policy, but many stayed. Together, the men built a two-story hotel, an artificial lake, a cross-shaped pool and even an airstrip, which Springer named Zyport. Some of the builders stayed in the strange utopia for years, others, for the rest of their lives.

 

Springer advertised the Zzyzx Mineral Springs and Health Resort on his syndicated religious radio show, and asked his listeners for “donations” for his special miracle cures. The potions, though only comprised of basic vegetables like celery and carrots, were marketed as the cure for everything from hemorrhoids to cancer. Guests at the resort were able to try Springer’s “life-prolonging” Antediluvian Tea, but his most popular remedy was an anti-baldness cream, Mo-Hair. Users were instructed to rub the potion vigorously on their scalp, then bend over and hold their breath for as long as possible. When the blood rushed to their head from lack of oxygen, Springer would cite their red faces as “proof” that his miracle potion was working its magic.

 

Springer publicized his desert utopia as the “last word” on health and vitality, and even gave the place its name, Zzyzx (pronounced “zi-zix”), because he believed it was the last word in the English language. For the next 30 years, hundreds of visitors came to his resort in search of a healthier lifestyle, but Springer’s dubious business practices would eventually catch up to him. Springer, in yet another hare-brained scheme, tried selling the plots adjacent to Zzyzx, despite never having purchased them himself. This act, along with lawsuits from bald men who Mo-Hair failed to cure, eventually brought government attention to the site, and Springer and his followers were evicted in 1974.

 

In 1984, Zzyzx was finally entered as a geographical name, and today, California State University runs its Desert Studies Center from the site. Though the center is used mostly by biology students and researchers, curious “desert-oriented” groups can plan an overnight stay, where dorm-style accommodations are available in the old resort.

Verbascum Densiflorum, the Denseflower Mullein or Dense-flowered Mullein in August (dziewanna wielkokwiatowa, jedna z ludowych nazw dziewanny to warkocze Matki Boskiej - Divine Mother’s braid). One of the largest of the herbaceous wild plants found in the Notecka Forest is associated with freshwater habitat. The mullein flowers as a traditional herbal medicinal product are used in combination with other drugs. They can be used for the relief of sore throat symptoms associated with dry cough and colds. The flowers and leaves are anodyne, antibacterial, antiseptic, antiviral, astringent, demulcent, emollient, expectorant, and vulnerary. The herb is often gathered wild and can also be farmed. Cultivation in pots is recommended.

Chamomile tea has been consumed for hundreds of years. It is made by infusing German chamomile (Matricaria recutita), a member of the sunflower family, in hot water. Roman chamomile (Chamaemelum nobile) is also beneficial, but most research has been done on German chamomile and it is the most commonly used in teas.

 

Here are eight health benefits of this popular tea:

 

Better Sleep

Chamomile tea's most well-known benefit is as a sleep aid. It is known for its relaxing and soothing properties and is often taken before bed to promote restful sleep.

 

Stomach Soother

Peter Rabbit's mother was right to give him chamomile after he ate too much in Mr. McGregor's vegetable garden. Chamomile is helpful for a variety of stomach problems. It soothes stomach aches, eases the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome, promotes elimination, and assists in overall digestion. It is often found in teas for digestion in combination with peppermint.

 

Menstrual Cramps

The ancient Egyptians used it to soothe menstrual cramps and now science is catching up. One study found that drinking chamomile tea raised urine levels of glycine, a compound that calms muscle spasms. Researchers believe this is why chamomile tea helps menstrual cramps.

 

Hemmorrhoid Help

One study found that chamomile ointment was helpful in the treatment of hemorrhoids.

 

Cold Fighter

Chamomile has immune boosting properties and helps in the fight against colds due to its antibacterial properties.

 

Wound Healing

The Egyptians, Romans, and Greeks used chamomile flowers in a poultice and applied them to wounds to speed healing. They must've been on to something. In one study, rats given chamomile extract in their water experienced faster wound healing times.

 

Diabetes Management

Chamomile tea is being studied for its beneficial effects in the management of diabetes. In one study, daily consumption of chamomile tea was found to prevent the progression of diabetic complications and hyperglycemia.

 

Cancer

In-vitro studies show possible protection against several different types of cancer cells.

Precautions

Some people have serious allergic reactions (including anaphylaxis) to chamomile. If you are allergic to other plants in the same family such as daisy, ragweed, aster, chrysanthemum, or marigold you should use caution when using chamomile.

 

Chamomile should be avoided during pregnancy because it may act as a uterine stimulant and therefore increase the chance of abortion.

 

People with bleeding disorders or on blood thinners should avoid chamomile, as it contains coumarin and may increase the chance of bleeding.

Kaleta Reserve, near Amboasary in southern Madagascar. The bird is sitting in a Tamarind tree.

 

From Wikipedia -

 

Tamarind (Tamarindus indica) (from Latinization of Arabic: تمر هندي tamar Hind "Indian Date") is a tree in the family Fabaceae. The genus Tamarindus is monotypic (having only a single species).

 

Tamarindus indica is indigenous to tropical Africa, particularly where it continues to grow wild in Sudan - it is also cultivated in Cameroon, Nigeria and Tanzania. In Arabia it is found wild growing in Oman, especially Dhofar, where it grows on sea-facing mountains. It reached South Asia likely through human transportation, and cultivation several thousand years prior to the Common Era. It is widely distributed throughout the Tropical belt, from Africa to South Asia, and throughout South East Asia, Taiwan and as far as China. In the 16th century it was heavily introduced to Mexico, as well as South America, by Spanish and Portuguese colonists, to the degree that it became a common ingredient in everyday living.

 

One of the first tamarind trees in Hawaii was planted in 1797.

 

Description -

The tamarind is a long-lived, medium-growth bushy tree which attains a maximum crown height of 12.1 to 18.3 metres (40 to 60 feet). The crown has an irregular vase-shaped outline of dense foliage. The tree grows well in full sun in clay, loam, sandy, and acidic soil types, with a high drought and aerosol salt (wind-borne salt as found in coastal area) resistance.

 

Leaves are evergreen, bright green in colour, elliptical ovular, arrangement is alternate, of the pinnately compound type, with pinnate venation and less than 5 cm (2 inches) in length. The branches droop from a single, central trunk as the tree matures and is often pruned in human agriculture to optimize tree density and ease of fruit harvest. At night, the leaflets close up.

 

The tamarind does flower, though inconspicuously, with red and yellow elongated flowers. Flowers are 2.5 cm wide (one inch) five-petalled borne in small racemes, yellow with orange or red streaks. Buds are pink as the 4 sepals are pink and are lost when the flower blooms.

 

The fruit is an indehiscent legume, sometimes called a pod, 12 to 15 cm (3 to 6 inches) in length with a hard, brown shell. The fruit has a fleshy, juicy, acidulous pulp. It is mature when the flesh is coloured brown or reddish-brown. The tamarinds of Asia have longer pods containing 6-12 seeds, whereas African and West Indian varieties have short pods containing 1-6 seeds. The seeds are somewhat flattened, and glossy brown.

 

The tamarind is best described as sweet and sour in taste, and high in acid, sugar, vitamin B and, interestingly for a fruit, calcium.

 

As a tropical species, it is frost sensitive. The pinnate leaves with opposite leaflets giving a billowing effect in the wind. Tamarind timber consists of hard, dark red heartwood and softer, yellowish sapwood.

 

Tamarind is harvested by pulling the pod from its stalk. A mature tree may be capable of producing up to 175 kg (350 lb) of fruit per annum. Veneer grafting, shield (T or inverted T) budding, and air layering may be used to propagate desirable selections. Such trees will usually fruit within 3 to 4 years if provided optimum growing conditions.

 

Alternative names -

Globally, it is most numerous in South Asia, where it is widely distributed and has a long history of human cultivation. Many South Asian regional languages have their own unique name for the tamarind fruit. It is called the tetul (তেঁতুল) in Bangla; in India it is known in several languages. In Sanskrit, it is called tintiDi. In Oriya it is called tentuli, in Hindi it is called imli; In Gujarati the amli, and Marathi and Konkani the chinch; in Kannada it is called hunase (ಹುಣಸೆ), Telugu chintachettu (tree) and chintapandu (fruit extract) and in Malayalam its called Vaalanpuli (വാളന്‍പുളി ). In Pakistan in Urdu it is known as imli. In Sri Lanka in Sinhala call it the siyambala; and Northern areas in Tamil also as the puli (புளி). In the Cook Islands in Cook Islands Maori Māori Kūki Āirani or Rarotonganis language Tamarindus is called 'tamarene'.

 

In Indonesia, tamarind is known as the asam (or asem) Jawa (means Javanese asam), which in the Indonesian language, translates as Javanese sour [sic: fruit] (though the literature may also refer to it as sambaya). In Malaysia, it is also called "asam Jawa". In the Philippines, tamarind is referred to as Sampaloc, which is occasionally rendered as Sambalog in Tagalog and Sambag in Cebuano. Vietnamese term is me. In Taiwan it is called loan-tz. In Myanmar it is called magee-bin (tree) and magee-thee (fruit). The tamarind is the provincial tree of the Phetchabun province of Thailand (in Thailand it is called ma-kham). In Malagasy it is called voamadilo and kily.

 

In Colombia, Dominican Republic, Mexico, Puerto Rico and Venezuela it is called tamarindo. In the Caribbean, tamarind is sometimes called tamon.

 

Tamarind (Tamarindus indica) should not be confused with the Manila tamarind (Pithecellobium dulce), which is a different plant, though also of Fabaceae.

 

The fruit pulp is edible and popular. The hard green pulp of a young fruit is considered by many to be too sour and acidic, but is often used as a component of savory dishes, as a pickling agent or as a means of making certain poisonous yams in Ghana safe for human consumption.

 

The ripened fruit is considered the more palatable as it becomes sweeter and less sour (acidic) as it matures. It is used in desserts as a jam, blended into juices or sweetened drinks, sorbets, ice-creams and all manner of snack. It is also consumed as a natural laxative.

In Western cuisine it is found in Worcestershire sauce, and HP sauce.

 

In Indian cuisine it is common. Imli Chutney and Pulusu use it. Along with tamarind, sugar and spices are added to (regional) taste for chutneys or a multitude of condiments for a bitter-sweet flavor. The immature pods and flowers are also pickled and used as a side dish. Regional cuisines such as Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh use it to make Rasam, Sambhar, Vatha Kuzhambu and Puliyogare. In Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu, tender leaves of tamarind are used along with lentils and it is also dried and used in place of ripe tamarind for mild flavour.

 

In Guadeloupe, tamarind is known as Tamarinier and is used in jams and syrups.

In Mexico, it is sold in various snack forms: dried and salted; or candied (see for example pulparindo or chamoy snacks). The famous agua fresca beverage, iced fruit-bars and raspados all use it as the main ingredient. In the US, Mexican immigrants have fashioned the "agua de tamarindo" drink, the Jarritos Tamarind drink (the first introduced and second most popular flavour of the brand), and many other treats. Tamarind snacks such as Mexico's Pelon Pelo Rico, are available in specialty food stores worldwide in pod form or as a paste or concentrate.

In Egypt, a sour, chilled drink made from tamarind is popular during the summer.

 

A traditional food plant in Africa, tamarind has potential to improve nutrition, boost food security, foster rural development and support sustainable landcare.

 

In southern Kenya, the Swahili people use it to garnish legumes and also make juices. In Madagascar, its fruits and leaves are a well-known favorite of the Ring-tailed Lemurs, providing as much as 50% of their food resources during the year if available. In Northern Nigeria, it is used with millet powder to prepare Kunun Tsamiya, a traditional Pap mostly used as breakfast, and usually eaten with bean cake.

 

The Javanese dish gurame and more so ikan asem, also known as ikan asam (sweet and sour fish, commonly a carp or river-fish) is popular throughout Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore. Tamarind is also common in Manado, Sulawesi and Maluku cuisines.

 

In Lebanon, the Kazouza company sells a tamarind-flavoured carbonated beverage.

 

In Myanmar, young and tender leaves and flower buds are eaten as a vegetable. A salad dish of tamarind leaves, boiled beans, and crushed peanuts topped with crispy fried onions is very popular in rural Myanmar.

 

In the Philippines, tamarind is used in foods like sinigang soup, and also made into candies. The leaves are also used in sinampalukan soup.

 

In Thailand a specific cultivar has been bred specifically to be eaten as a fresh fruit, famous for being particular sweet and minimally sour. It is also sometimes eaten preserved in sugar with chili as a sweet-and-spicy candy. Pad Thai, a Thai dish popular with Westerners often include tamarind for its tart/sweet taste (with lime juice added for sourness and fish sauce added for saltiness). A tamarind-based sweet-and-sour sauce served over deep-fried fish is also a common dish in central Thailand.

 

Medicinal uses -

Phytochemical studies revealed the presence of tannins, saponins, sesquiterpenes, alkaloids and phlobatamins and other extracts active against both gram positive and gram negative bacteria, at temperatures of 4–30 °C (39–86 °F). Studies on the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of the extracts on the test organisms showed that the lowest MIC and the MBC were demonstrated against Salmonella paratyphi, Bacillus subtilis and Salmonella typhi and the highest MIC and MBC was exhibited against Staphylococcus aureus.

 

Throughout Asia and Africa it is common for health remedies. In Northern Nigeria, fresh stem bark and fresh leaves are used as decoction mixed with potash for the treatment of stomach disorder, general body pain, jaundice, yellow fever and as blood tonic and skin cleanser. In Indonesia, Malaysia and Philippines and Javanese traditional medicine use asem leaves as a herbal infusion for malarial fever, the fruit juice as an anti-septic, and scurvy and even cough cure.

 

Fruit of the tamarind is also commonly used throughout South East Asia as a poultice applied to foreheads of fever sufferers.

 

Tamarind is used as in Indian Ayurvedic Medicine for gastric and/or digestion problems, and in cardioprotective activity.

 

In animal studies, tamarind has been found to lower serum cholesterol and blood sugar levels. Due to a lack of available human clinical trials, there is insufficient evidence to recommend tamarind for the treatment of hypercholesterolemia (high cholesterol) or diabetes.

 

Based on human study, tamarind intake may delay the progression of fluorosis by enhancing excretion of fluoride. However, additional research is needed to confirm these results.

 

Excess consumption has been noted as a traditional laxative.

 

Other medicinal uses include: Anthelminthic (expels worms), antimicrobial, antiseptic, antiviral, asthma, astringent, bacterial skin infections (erysipelas), boils, chest pain, cholesterol metabolism disorders, colds, colic, conjunctivitis (pink eye), constipation (chronic or acute), diabetes, diarrhea (chronic), dry eyes, dysentery (severe diarrhea), eye inflammation, fever, food preservative, food uses (coloring), gallbladder disorders, gastrointestinal disorders, gingivitis, hemorrhoids, indigestion, insecticide, jaundice, keratitis (inflammation of the cornea), leprosy, liver disorders, nausea and vomiting (pregnancy-related), paralysis, poisoning (Datura plant), rash, rheumatism, saliva production, skin disinfectant/sterilization, sore throat, sores, sprains, sunscreen, sunstroke, swelling (joints), urinary stones, wound healing (corneal epithelium).

 

In temples, especially in Buddhist Asian countries, the fruit pulp is used to polish brass shrine furniture, removing dulling and the greenish patina that forms.

 

The wood is a bold red color. Due to its density and durability, tamarind heartwood can be used in making furniture and wood flooring. A tamarind switch is sometimes used as an implement for corporal punishment.

 

Tamarind trees are very common throughout Asia and the tropical world as both an ornamental, garden and cash-crop. The tamarind has recently become popular in bonsai culture, frequently used in Asian countries like Indonesia, Taiwan and the Philippines. In the last Japan Airlines World Bonsai competition, Mr. Budi Sulistyo of Indonesia won the second prize with an ancient tamarind bonsai.

 

The seeds are sometimes used by children in traditional board games such as Chinese checkers (China), Dhakon (Java), and others.

 

The tamarind tree is the official plant of Santa Clara, Cuba. Consequently it appears in the coat of arms of the city.

CURTIS HOWE SPRINGER WAS A self-proclaimed medical doctor and Methodist minister, though in actuality he was licensed to do neither. He was, however, a popular radio evangelist in Pittsburgh in the 1930s, and the founder of Zzyzx Mineral Springs and Healing Center out in the Mojave desert of California.

 

Like many other hucksters of his day, Springer convinced his devoted followers to move out to the West Coast, where he promised a new, utopian way of living and an abundance of miracle cures. At the time, the West Coast had a slight reputation for its questionable businessmen, who built empires out of cheap land, religious fads, and get-rich-quick schemes. Springer was no different, having founded or managed six other failed resorts before striking it rich with Zzyzx.

 

In 1944, Springer, along with his fiancee Helen and their daughter, stumbled upon a “mosquito swamp” in the east Mojave. It was there, in the middle of the desert, where Springer envisioned his utopia. Not surprisingly, he acquired the land by filing a dubious mining claim for 12,000 acres. For the next few months, Springer split his time between the desert and Los Angeles, where he taped radio broadcasts and recruited builders.

 

To find his artisans, Springer bought a large bus and drove down to Skid Row, where he rounded up vagrants and offered them meals and shelter in exchange for construction. Some of the men left when learning of the “no alcohol” policy, but many stayed. Together, the men built a two-story hotel, an artificial lake, a cross-shaped pool and even an airstrip, which Springer named Zyport. Some of the builders stayed in the strange utopia for years, others, for the rest of their lives.

 

Springer advertised the Zzyzx Mineral Springs and Health Resort on his syndicated religious radio show, and asked his listeners for “donations” for his special miracle cures. The potions, though only comprised of basic vegetables like celery and carrots, were marketed as the cure for everything from hemorrhoids to cancer. Guests at the resort were able to try Springer’s “life-prolonging” Antediluvian Tea, but his most popular remedy was an anti-baldness cream, Mo-Hair. Users were instructed to rub the potion vigorously on their scalp, then bend over and hold their breath for as long as possible. When the blood rushed to their head from lack of oxygen, Springer would cite their red faces as “proof” that his miracle potion was working its magic.

 

Springer publicized his desert utopia as the “last word” on health and vitality, and even gave the place its name, Zzyzx (pronounced “zi-zix”), because he believed it was the last word in the English language. For the next 30 years, hundreds of visitors came to his resort in search of a healthier lifestyle, but Springer’s dubious business practices would eventually catch up to him. Springer, in yet another hare-brained scheme, tried selling the plots adjacent to Zzyzx, despite never having purchased them himself. This act, along with lawsuits from bald men who Mo-Hair failed to cure, eventually brought government attention to the site, and Springer and his followers were evicted in 1974.

 

In 1984, Zzyzx was finally entered as a geographical name, and today, California State University runs its Desert Studies Center from the site. Though the center is used mostly by biology students and researchers, curious “desert-oriented” groups can plan an overnight stay, where dorm-style accommodations are available in the old resort.

Piles are enlarged veins in the anus and rectum. They resemble varicose veins that take place on the leg. When aggravated, hemorrhoidal veins may irritate, burn, or bleed and cause unpleasant swelling in the bordering membranes. Piles are regularly triggered by straining during a bowel movement, massive lifting, childbirth, extreme coughing, and continuous resting. Right here you will certainly read somne therapy to get relief from hemorrhoids.Visit our site mentaltoughnesskit.com/hemorrhoids/ for more information on Hemorrhoids

Because a friend has mentioned Atwood and Horowitz, I bring out the beer stashed under my bed in case of emergencies. And this moment seems to be pressing, somewhere, something is breaking, inside my body. I put on George Bruch: Violin Concerto No.1 in G Minor, and then, this.There is time to smoke, in a while. For now, a poem:

 

I Was Reading a Scientific Article

Margaret Atwood

 

They have photographed the brain

and here is the picture, it is full of

branches as I always suspected,

 

each time you arrive the electricity

of seeing you is a huge

tree lumbering through my skull, the roots waving.

 

It is an earth, its fibres wrap

things buried, your forgotten words

are graved in my head, an intricate

 

red blue and pink prehensile chemistry

veined like a leaf

network, or is it a seascape

with corals and shining tentacles.

 

I touch you, I am created in you

somewhere as a complex

filament of light

 

You rest on me and my shoulder holds

 

your heavy unbelievable

skull, crowded with radiant

suns, a new planet, the people

submerged in you, a lost civilization

I can never excavate:

 

my hands trace the contours of a total

universe, its different

colors, flowers, its undiscovered

animals, violent or serene

 

its other air

its claws

 

its paradise rivers

A year ago, in my Market Research class, we were tasked to conduct personal interviews all over Manila about the latest ad campaign for Coke. A lot of them don’t remember anything now. A lot of them don’t even drink it now.The tea phenomenon is invading the metro. They say, We have to keep the body clean. Detoxify. Keep healthy. Here: it is a temple, where your blood runs like a peaceful river. Like Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata on a sad night with no rain. This is how quiet the body can be.

 

I just took my can of beer and emptied it onto the bathroom sink. I put some water to boil, brought out a packet of dried leaves, smelling jasmine, the only thing I’ll find around this house now. I’ve read somewhere that Longjing is a famous Chinese tea. It stands for Dragon Well. Yun Wu is for Cloud and Mist. Chun Mee means precious eyebrows.

 

It’s a known fact that drinking tea can be good for the body, especially the heart.

 

3.

Chopin pitter-patters with Nocturne. I tiptoed around the kitchen trying not to make any noise. Everyone else is asleep; there’s no one to stay up for, no one to think about at this time.

 

4.

Teacup in hand, I return to my room to find Bach’s Air playing. Ah, but what else can I do but sit in the corner of my room, by the floor:

 

My heart is weak and unreliable. When I go it will be my heart. I try to burden it as little as possible. If something is going to have an impact, I direct it elsewhere. My gut for example, or my lungs, which might seize up for a moment but have never yet failed to take another breath. When I pass a mirror and catch a glimpse of myself, or I’m at the bus stop and some kids come up behind me and say, Who smells shit? - small daily humiliations - these I take, generally speaking, in my liver. Other damages I take in other places. The pancreas I reserve for being struck by all that’s been lost. It’s true that there’s so much, and the organ is so small. But. You would be surprised how much it can take, all I feel is a quick sharp pain and then it’s over. Sometimes I imagine my own autopsy. Disappointment in myself: right kidney. Disappointment of others in me: left kidney. Personal failures: kishkes.Yesterday I saw a man kicking a dog and I felt it behind my eyes. I don’t know what to call this, a place before tears. The pain of forgetting: spine. The pain of remembering: spine. All the times I have suddenly realized that my parents are dead, even now, it still surprises me, to exist in the world while that which made me has ceased to exist: my knees, it takes half a tube of Ben-Gay and a big production just to bend them. To everything a season, to every time I’ve woken only to make the mistake of believing for a moment that someone was sleeping beside me: a hemorrhoid. Loneliness: there is no organ that can take it all.

 

- Nicole Krauss, The History of Love

Franz Schubert casually slips into Unfinished Symphony No. 8. I now feel archaic. Time-worn. Passé. I think I sleep somewhere between forgotten and vanished.
