IN LOVING MEMORY

BABY SISTER

SISTA-SISTA


LAUGHTER IS A NATURAL REMEDY

To all my Sister Friends,

Be the kind of woman that when your feet hit the floor each morning the devil says ~~ "Oh H3LL, She's Up!"


Life is too short to wake up with regrets.
So love the people who treat you right.

Believe everything happens for a reason.
If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands.
If it changes your life, let it.

Kiss slowly.
Forgive quickly.

God never said life would be easy. 
He Just promised it would be worth it!


I LOVE YA SISTA !

I am only as strong as the chocolate I eat,
the hair spray I use and
the friends I have.

And to you, Baby Sister, who touched my life, here's to you!


What would most of us do without our sisters, confidants and shopping, lunching, and traveling girls?   Let's celebrate each other for each other's sake!



Baby Sister, you sent me a poster of fruits and vegetables listed with their health values to use on the future blog we were planning.  You went home to be with God before it came to fruition.  But, I have shared it with many and even posted it on Mother's birthday blog entry.  She and all the others loved it. 

I have added much of my research to the poster's information.  Also, I found a YOU TUBE version of the same poster, featuring a musical version of MY HEART WILL GO ON, the theme song from one of your favorite movies, TITANIC.  There are even a variety of  versions to choose from for repeat plays.  I am sharing them with readers:



Onions look like body cells. Today's research shows that onions help clear waste materials from all of the body cells. They even produce tears which wash the epithelial layers of the eyes.


A Tomato has four chambers and is red. The heart is red and has four chambers. All of the research shows tomatoes are indeed pure heart and blood food.


Sweet Potatoes look like the pancreas and actually balance the glycemic index of diabetics, help preserve your memory, and reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer.  The single most important dietary change for most people, including children, would be to replace fatty foods with foods rich in complex carbohydrates, such as sweet potatoes.   They are high in dietary fiber, complex carbohydrates, protein, vitamins A and C, iron and calcium.  They can be prepared in any of the ways that white potatoes can, but with far greater flavor and nutritional value.


A Walnut looks like a little brain, a left and right hemisphere, upper cerebrums and lower cerebellums. Even the wrinkles or folds are on the nut just like the neo-cortex. We now know that walnuts help develop over 3 dozen neuron-transmitters for brain function.


Olives assist the health and function of the ovaries.  Olives contain Omega 9 oil that, while it is not an essential oil, Omega 9 oils have a synergistic affect with other nutrients that promote health.  The Bible mentions the olive at least 80 times.


Kidney Beans actually heal and help maintain kidney function and yes, they look exactly like the human kidneys.


Grapes hang in a cluster that has the shape of the heart. Each grape looks like a blood cell and all of the research today shows that grapes are also profound heart and blood vitalizing food.


Grapefruits, Oranges , and other Citrus fruits look just like the mammary glands of the female and actually assist the health of the breasts and the movement of lymph in and out of the breasts.


Celery, Bok Choy, Rhubarb and more look just like bones. These foods specifically target bone strength. Bones are 23% sodium and these foods are 23% sodium. If you don't have enough sodium in your diet the body pulls it from the bones, making them weak. These foods replenish the skeletal needs of the body.


A sliced Carrot looks like the human eye. The pupil, iris and radiating lines look just like the human eye...and YES science now shows that carrots greatly enhance blood flow to and function of the eyes.


Eggplant  targets the health and function of the womb and cervix and is similar in shape of these female organs.  A nightshade vegetable, eggplant is low in calories, high fiber and contains potassium, manganese, copper, magnesium, and several b-complex vitamins.  Nasunin, which is an anthocyanin compound found in the purple-pigmented skin, is a strong antioxidant.



And how profound is this? .... It takes exactly 9 months to grow an avocado from blossom to ripened fruit.  Avocado increase nutrient absorption, when included with  your meal.  Today's research shows that when a woman eats 1 avocado a week, it helps to balance hormones, sheds unwanted birth weight and prevent cervical cancers.

 


Figs are full of seeds and hang in twos when they grow. Figs increase the motility of male sperm and increase the numbers of sperm as well to overcome male sterility.



The pomegranate is said to have 613 seeds, representing the 613 commandments of the Torah.  Pomegranate juice contains three times the amount of antioxidants per ounce than red wine or green tea. Pomegranate juice contains vitamin A, E, and C, as well as folic acid. Pomegranate juice has shown to be help prevent heart attacks, heart disease, and strokes.




AND,  just in case Karen is watching, let's give her something to chuckle about (I've seen this before, but review is good and practice makes permanent):

HOW SMART IS YOUR RIGHT FOOT?
This is hysterical. You have to try this. It is absolutely true. I guess there are some things that the brain cannot handle.  You have to try this please, it takes 2 seconds. It is from an orthopedic surgeon.  This will boggle your mind and it will keep you trying over and over again to see if you can outsmart your foot, but, you can't. It's pre-programmed in your brain!

1). Without anyone watching you (they will think you are GOOFY; well, if the shoe fits....) and while sitting at your desk in front of your computer, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles.

2). Now, while doing this, draw the number '6' in the air with your right hand.  Your foot will change direction.

I told you so!!!
