Pomegranate is known to clear up artery blockages but it's not so easy to find the fruit in Singapore also not that easy to extract the seeds from the fruit.

My solution is to drink the juice daily from a concentrate. The concentrate is available from health stores like www.iherb.com
http://www.iherb.com/Jarrow-Formulas-PomeGreat-Pomegranate-4x-Juice-Concentrate-24-fl-oz-710-ml/4858
I use the concentrate like a syrup. Mixing it with cold water whenever I'm thirsty

There's also pills with the pomegranate in it. Take a look at http://www.iherb.com/Life-Extension-Full-Spectrum-Pomegranate-30-Softgels/23414

my li'l brother leetahsar always juice me shiok shiok wheatgrass which never fails to send me to the loo to "bomb the toilet" - a phrase he uses for total detox. after the bombing, funny i feel very light and the mood gets very high. i dunno what but u just feel damn good and shiok and a whole load of rubbish has just been expelled.:biggrin:


Wheat grass is very reasonably priced at less than $3 at the local supermarket. Those who want to give it a try it should go slowly because some people have reported that it is very effective in clearing some issues:wink:


I've included organic beet root in my mix because it's suppose to clean the liver. I've notice that 30 minutes after I drink the juice I have to go to the loo & I see the distinct beet root colors.:o

I enjoy a good steak but can't ignore the problems with the meats out there e.g. use of antibiotics, hormones, ....

One needs the organic green stiff to counter the damage caused by the man made chemicals in our food & environment.
It was very difficult trying to find healthy foods I could can consume. Silly me I never thought about juicing until recently.
If modern diet is so unhealthy, why is it that in ancient times, where everyone eats organic and a lot less meat, the life span is only half of modern mankind?

I suspect a lot of organic claims are over the top and does little to improve overall health. Just eat sensible, clean food properly and exercise regularly.

Life span in the old days was shorter because of poor sanitation which lead to all kinds of diseases like TB, cholera, dengue,...


I'm proposing juicing as a means of consuming more fruits/veggie. I recommend organic food because greater care is taken to avoid chemicals. Not everyone has the time or talent to cook. Also from a health stand point you will preserve the nutrient by avoiding cooking.

It used to be rare to hear about people coming down with a serious problem like cancer. However nowadays it is very, very common. My neighbour, friends, relatives,... are coming down with it.:eek: Even LHL has experienced it. In the US they are facing an epidemic of health issues. Over there many have successfully cured their health problems by juicing.

Many of them are using the recommendations outlined in the Gerson Therapy which is 70+ years old protocol. If you want to find out what people think of it you can read the comments at http://www.amazon.com/Gerson-Therap...sr_1_1_cm_cr_acr_txt?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=1

In the Gerson Thereapy juicing is used because how else are you going to feed someone almost 7 kilograms of veggies/fruits) in a day:eek: For people with cancer they advocate a daily intake of 104 ouces of organic juice(3 lites). This is in addition to other vegetarian meals

for tthe liver, my li'l brother leetahsar would brew a very powderful tonic using roselle which is the calyxes of a hibiscus usually misnamed as "ribena".

he brews it using liquorice, dried orange peel and tang kuay. the result brew is really fantastic!

unfortunately only a a lucky few get to enjoy LTS' wizard brew :smile:

I like ice cream but can't take the sugar that is included in the ready made ice creams. Was considering getting one of the ice cream makers with a built-in compressor like the Cuisinart.
http://www.amazon.com/Cuisinart-ICE...id=1377406196&sr=8-5&keywords=ice+cream+maker

The model found in Spore costs about $950. Anyone interested can see it at places like Tang, Takashimaya,..

Unfortunately I already have plenty of heavy kitchen gadgets like a blender, mixe, juicer, toaster, water ionizer,... taking up valuable counter space:(

If anyone is interested in something cheaper you can consider the Yonanas Ice Cream Treat Maker
http://www.amazon.com/Yonanas-902-Cream-Treat-Silver/dp/B005083ECS/ref=pd_sim_la_5
I saw it being promoted at NTUC. You can also get it locally at some stores or at at http://list.qoo10.sg/s/YONANAS?keyword=yonanas&keyword_auto_change= for less than $100

The home made ice cream doesn't have any added sugar at all, all the sweetness come from the fruits it self, just plain fruit without any sugar...:smile:

I bought a VITAMIX, it does almost everything, making ice cream, smoothie, blend mixture for making bread and it cost me around 500 Canadian dollars

thank for asking.
depend a lot on what item you juice.
some veg are very cooling.if you have a warm body type, then no problem.

Pomegranate,Goat Weed, Maca ,china lychee , dog meat, goat meat...are these consider yang food in tcm.they are teh reverse of cooling

Pomegranate is known to clear up artery blockages but it's not so easy to find the fruit in Singapore also not that easy to extract the seeds from the fruit.

My solution is to drink the juice daily from a concentrate. The concentrate is available from health stores like www.iherb.com

I have a Philiips which I got for $150. http://www.philips.com.sg/c/juicers...50-w-2-l-glass-jar-with-filter-hr2084_00/prd/
However mine has the stainless steel finish. Good enough for occasional use. It is of course not as powerful as the Vitamix.

If you are looking at a Vitamix class machine you'll probably want to compare it to a Bendtec which you can find in Spore at Nature's Glory http://www.natures-glory.com/sub_kitchenware.asp?CatSID=241

Too much hype to scare people to buy over priced organic food. Has anyone done a statistical study on lifespan of vegans vs balanced food eaters? What we hear are only unsubstantiated claims, anecdotal examples at best. Even those who swear by vegan or organic diet dies by around 80 years old.

Steve jobs is perfect example to warn others on these special diet plans.

Compare that with today when people in their 30's are getting cancer or some other strange allergy. Death among younger Sporeans are getting more common. They can even die when doing their IPPT:eek: During my day we had 10km runs with backpack & rifle and no one died.

You sure last time no one died during NS? Or is it because time with no Internet, the news can be easily contained.

Also last time IPPT fail has no RT, and can easily get someone else to run for you.

Did you know that Steve Jobs was a workaholic?
Even when he knew he had cancer he was still pushing himself.

If you ask around around you will find many survivors of cancer. These people have survived by simply changing their diet & lifestyle e.g. just read the comments left by people on the Gerson Therapy
http://www.amazon.com/Gerson-Therap...sr_1_1_cm_cr_acr_txt?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=1

When you reach my age you will meet many people with these serious conditions e.g. cancer, heart problems. diabetes,... I personally know people with these conditions. Some have died because they are unwilling to change anything. Some who have made the necessary changes are still around including me.. The common denominator with survivors is that they took steps to change their diet.

The dead can't speak, hence you are merely quoting one sided examples. How many cancer patients died in spite of all the kooky special diets?

It is like saying that gambling is sure win after you have surveyed a couple of recent casino winners.

During NS I attended many funerals of those who died in my unit. I was volunteered to go because I lived near the Mount Vernon crematorium.
All died from accidents & none from heat exhaustion. I can't comment on other units, only on my unit which was a combat unit. However my unit is a typical combat unit & I would assume it's the same as other units.

Had a classmates who was overweight. He was the only classmate who died during NS & it was from an accident.

Back then the training was more physically demanding e.g. 10 km runs with full pack. No one ever collapsed or died when we had route marches, obstacle runs,....

Are you making the argument that the deaths were caused by eating organic foods:confused:


My definition of organic food is food that is it is grown with minimal chemicals & on soil that hasn't been depleted by intensive farming.
Many people are getting ill because they are not getting enough nutrients such as eating nutritional deprived foods e.g. junk food.

The Gerson diets advocates the use of juicing, eating organic meals, supplementing to provide the body with the necessary nutrients to re-build a healthy body. Just as important are the chemicals people one should avoid. When you think about it, the recommended protocol is common sense.

It is very simple, you are what you eat.
