How many calories in an Egg
Dairy foods and drinks are essential for a balanced diet - aim for 3 servings a day.

Calories in dairy foods vary as this group includes egg, milk, cheese, yogurt and fromage frais (to name a few).

Worried about how much cholesterol there is in an egg? It's easy to forget we need cholesterol for good health. Eggs also contain lecithin which has the ability to dissolve cholesterol and other fats.

Top 10 Food Sources of Beta Carotene: The Immune Booster

The Health Benefits of Beta Carotene
Beta carotene, a provitamin the body converts into vitamin A, is a powerful antioxidant that has been celebrated for its possible ability to fight cancer. Beta carotene is thought to play a role protecting cells, boosting the immune system and helping to keep the reproductive system healthy.

Here are the top 10 sources of beta carotene, according to the USDA:


1. Carrots
After organ meats, which have as much as 9,000 mg of vitamin A (along with a healthy dose of yuck!) the reliable carrot is the No. 1 source of this essential nutrient. And its vitamin A comes in the form of beta carotene, the much celebrated antioxidant. (It's also a top source of lycopene, a cancer-fighting phytonutrient.)
Whether you like to eat or drink your carrots, this root vegetable is an excellent source of vitamin A. A three-quarter cup of carrot juice has 1,692 mg of the nutrient and 71 calories. Half a cup of cooked carrots has 671 mg of vitamin A and just 27 calories. But be wary! Carrots are on the dirty dozen list of foods with the most pesticide residue, so buy organic when you can.



2. Pumpkins
If you shy away from the dessert tray, here’s a reason to eat more pumpkin pie! Half a cup of canned pumpkin has 953 mg of vitamin A and only 42 calories. And that vitamin A comes in the form of beta carotene.

3. Sweet Potatoes
One medium sweet potato has 1,096 mg of vitamin A (in the form of beta carotene) and 103 calories – just don't forget to eat the skin too!



4. Spinach
It may not have the yellow or orange color that's the hallmark of the other big beta carotene sources, but one half cup of spinach offers a healthy 573 mg of vitamin A and only 30 calories.



5. Collards
These leafy greens have 489 mg of vitamin A, plenty of beta carotene, and just 31 calories in one half a cup.


6. Kale
Another leafy vegetable high in beta carotene/ vitamin A, kale has 478 mg of the nutrient and 20 calories per half cup serving.



7. Turnip Greens
The greens on this common root vegetable are just as edible as they are nutritious. Half a cup of turnip greens have 441 mg of vitamin A (in the form of beta carotene), 851 μg of vitamin K and just 24 calories -- and with vitamin C, folate and calcium as well, they're far more nutritious than the turnip itself. Try young leaves as an accent to a salad, or boil twice, replacing the water in between, to serve as a side dish. Also look for mustard and dandelion greens for a similar leafy

8. Beet Greens
Beet greens are a top source of several nutrients, with 276 mg of Vitamin A (in the form of beta carotene), 697 μg of vitamin K, 655 mg of potassium and just 19 calories per half a cup. Like turnip greens, you can find these at your local farmers' market (or you can grow them yourself). Try substituting this superfood in recipes for collards.

9. Winter Squash
Packed with almost as much vitamin A as turnip and beet greens -- but far more palatable to most casual eaters -- winter squash is a delicious source of nutritious beta carotene.

10. Cabbage
Cabbage, especially Chinese pak-choi, is another great source of beta carotene (also check out goji berries).

GOD'S PHARMACY, THE FRUIT AND THE HUMAN BODY

"God left us a great clue as to what foods help what part of our body" Below I am going to show various fruits and vegetables on how they are helpful to a specific part of the body....it is the Lord's doing" before we look those fruits and vegetables, let us look at the Mind set of God concern what we and how we eat them, for it is the Lord's happiness that we eat anything that is healthy and which glorify him through your health status.....

Roman 14: 1-3 (AMP)

As for the man who is a weak believer, welcome him (into your fellowship), but not to criticize his opinions or pass judgment on his scruples or perplex him with discussions...verse 2..One (man's faith permits him to believe he may eat anything, while a weaker one (limits his) eating to vegetables. Let not him who eats look down on or despise him who abstains, and let not him who abstains criticize and pass judgment on him who eats; for God has accepted and welcomed him.

Here we go.....

(A) CARROT

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 carrots greatly enhance blood flow to and function of the eyes.

(B) TOMATO

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

(C) GRAPES

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 grapes are also profound heart and blood vitalizing food.

(D) WALNUT

A Walnut looks like a little brain, a left and right hemisphere, upper cerebrums and lower cerebellums. Even the winkles or folds on the nut are just like the neo - cortex. we now know walnuts help develop more than three (3) dozen neurotransmitters for brain function.

(E) KIDNEY BEANS

Kidney Beans actually heal and help maintain kidney function and yes, they look exactly like the human kidneys...it is also another source of protein from plants.

(F) CELERY

celery, Bok Choy and many more look just like bones. these foods specifically target bone strength. Bone 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, thus making them weak..These foods replenish the skeletal needs of the body.

(G) AVOCADOES, EGGPLAN AND PEARS

Avocadoes, Eggplant and Pears target the health and function of the womb and cervix of the female - they look just like these organs. Today's research shows that when a woman eats one avocado a week, it balances hormones, sheds unwanted birth weight, and prevents cervical cancers. And how profound is this? it takes exactly nine (9) months to grow and avocado from blossom to ripened fruit. there are over 14,000 photolytic chemical constituents of nutrition in each one of these foods (modern science has only studied and named about 141 of them).

(H) FIGS

Figs are full of seeds and hang in twos when they grow. figs increase the mobility of male s***m and increase the numbers of s***m as well to overcome male sterility

(I) SWEET POTATOES

Sweet Potatoes look like the pancreas and actually balance the glycemic index of diabetics.

(J) OLIVES

Olives assist the health and function of the ovaries...and it look exactly like the o***y.

(K) ORANGES, GRAPEFRUITS, AND OTHER CITRUS FRUITS

Oranges, Grapefruits 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 breast.

(L) ONION

Onions look like the body's cells. today's research shows onion help clear waste materials from all of the body cells. they even produce tears which wash the epithelial layers of the eyes.

And the last on our list is

(M) BANANAS

Bananas contain three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial bost of energy. Research has proven that just two bananas provide enought energy for a strenuous 90 - minute workout. Now wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world's leading athletes.

But energy isn't the only way a banana can help us keep fit. it can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.

depression: according to a recent survey undertaken by MINd amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. this is because bananas contain tryptophain, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.

PMS: Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.

Anemia: high in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia

Blood Pressure: this unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure. so much so , the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit's ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.

Brain Power: 200 students at a Twickenham (Middlesex) school were helped through their exams this last 2012 by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium - packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.

Drink More Water

Do you feel tired much of the time? Do you suffer dry skin and mood shifts? It could be, like an estimated 80% of the population, that you are chronically dehydrated. You know you should drink plenty of water but you end of forgetting. Or the prospect just isn't as exciting as a coffee or soda. You know you should drink up to eight glasses of water a day but you've found it hard to keep up the motivation.

Water thieves

We are all largely made up of water-two thirds of our weight is made up of water. Consider this:
Blood is around 83% water.
Your muscles consist of 75% water.
Your brain is 74% water
And your bone is 22% water.
No wonder drinking plenty of water makes you think more clearly keeps your blood and blood pressure healthy and makes your muscles and bones work better. But being chronically dehydrated isn't just a question of not drinking enough water but also consuming to many substances that actually steal your precious water.
Coffee, tea, sodas and of course alcohol all steal water from you by prompting your body to lose more water.

The value of water

Water helps your digestion and also helps you absorb essential vitamins and minerals.
Water is essential to detoxify you kidneys and liver. It helps carry away waste from the body.
Water increases your physical and mental performance.

Water keeps your skin smooth and glowing-water is a great natural beautifier.
Water helps you lose weight as it's a great natural appetite suppressant

Drinking plenty of water is great for your heart (1)
There are great sensible tips for you to follow to remind you to drink plenty of water for your health. Firstly don't just drink water when you're thirsty. You want to drink to prevent you from becoming dehydrated. If you are thirsty then dehydration has already happened.
Keep water with you at all time. If you have a bottle with you it will serve to remind you to use it.

You could even set a timer on your PC or cell phone to remind you to drink water. Until the habit sticks. Remember also that you don't have to drink loads of water all at once. Keep yourself topped up over the day with regular water intakes. A little often is the key.

This session will help program your unconscious mind to remember to drink plenty of water and to keep you motivated so that you can quickly start enjoying all the health benefits.

(1) The findings of a six-year study of more than 20,000 healthy men and women aged 38-100 in the May 1, 2002 American Journal of Epidemiology found that women who drank more than five glasses of water a day were 41% less likely to die from a heart attack during the study period than those who drank less than two glasses. The protective effect of water was even greater in men.

The regulation of appetite (the appestat) has been the subject of much research in the last decade[update]. Breakthroughs included the discovery, in 1994, of leptin, a hormone produced by the adipose tissue that appeared to provide negative feedback. Leptin is a peptide hormone that affects homeostasis and immune responses.[2] Lowering food intake can lower leptin levels in the body, while increasing the intake of food can raise leptin levels. Later studies showed that appetite regulation is an immensely complex process involving the gastrointestinal tract, many hormones, and both the central and autonomic nervous systems.[2] The circulating gut hormones that regulate many pathways in the body result in appetite stimulation.[3]

03/03/2014

Appetite is the desire to eat food, felt as hunger. Appetite exists in all higher life-forms, and serves to regulate adequate energy intake to maintain metabolic needs. It is regulated by a close interplay between the digestive tract, adipose tissue and the brain. Appetite has a relationship with every individual's behavior. Appetitive and consummatory behaviours are the only processes that involve energy intake, whereas all other behaviours affect the release of energy. When stressed, appetite levels may increase and result in an increase of food intake. Decreased desire to eat is termed anorexia, while polyphagia (or "hyperphagia") is increased eating. Dysregulation of appetite contributes to anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, cachexia, overeating, and binge eating disorder.

03/03/2014

We shall discussed what Appetite is, and how we can buzz our appetite, control it and maintain it and reduce it as well.

03/03/2014

The driving force behind the way we eat and the extent to which we eat is called "appetite".
