Not simply replacement of the one vitamin which you deficient!

I saw my friend, lots of friends are heading to pharmacies for vitamins or minerals simply just because they “think” they are deficient, or they “think” they should consume more of that particular vitamins or minerals, especially Vitamin C, believe in its skin whitening properties. In fact, this is ineffective, or even dangerous.

Whenever we seek for to correct a vitamin or mineral deficiency, we must recognize that nutrients work synergistically, in other words, some other nutrients must have to be present together only our body can absorb and assimilate with that particular nutrient which we deficient of. This means that there is cooperative action between certain vitamins and minerals, which may work as catalysts, promoting the absorption and assimilation of other vitamins and minerals. Correcting the deficiency in one vitamin and mineral requires the addition of others, not simply replacement of the one which you deficient. This is why taking a single vitamin or mineral may be ineffective or even dangerous, and this is why a balanced vitamin and mineral preparation should always be taken in addition to any single supplement.

For instance, vitamin B complex should be taken with calcium,vitamin C and E.
Vitamin C should be taken together with bioflavonoids (phytochemical), calcium and magnesium. To correct the deficiency to Vitamin E, essential fatty acids,manganese, selenium, vitamin A and Vitamin B1, inositol and vitamin C have to be taken together. There are lots of examples to go…..

爱情里究竟谁骗了谁?

爱情里究竟谁骗了谁?

我有个愿望,希望自己可以象巴士里的人一样,很平静,很平静地坐着巴士回家,就象他们一样,那就好了,别让我再困在自己的世界里,孤独、执着、痛苦、无措里了。心好苦,不想再次在巴士流泪了。。。愿望,成真了吗?

不知道从何时开始,爱情只存在于我的生命里,却很少出现在我的脑子里。曾经,它常在我脑海里。或许是因为我有了个很爱我的人。我想,是这样的吧。他愿意付出所有,包容了我的无理要求、无理取闹、甚至是欺骗。他太爱我了,会到什么时候呢?终有一天吧,我不知道,也不去想,就逃避。爱情里,我变得自私了,是自私让爱情不再出现呢,还是他的爱让我不再为爱烦恼呢,还是。。。

曾经,我很爱一个人,就因为爱他,我让他离开了,去追求自己的梦想,或许我也没能耐阻止。就这样,送走了他,一年后,也从我生命中走了,永远。得知,他的生命中已经有了个她。

这里,想向个人说对不起,我欠了他好久,也不懂他在哪里?

算劈腿吗?同时,我的生命里也有了另一个他。虽然他知道他,我们还是开始了。刺激、好玩、新鲜。四个月后,他一直在我脑海里,怀疑、徘徊。这男人能够跟我走下去吗?这时,之前的他回来了,他想回来我身边吗?非也,为了什么我也不懂,到现在也不懂。我以为我还爱他,但一个吻否定了一切。也否定了我与两个他。很土,但真的,人生如戏。

一切都结束了吗?我错了。。。我一直哀求,成了?断了?都没有。我真的如此爱他吗?瞒着我,他有了个她,我的友。这中间,也存在了个左右为难的友,瞒着了整件事。原来如此,友情。。爱情。。

我们这样子也好,爱情不平等了,人也不会幸福。


很多故事被发现了,故事背后的某些部份还是被隐瞒着,不见得光,也包护着某些人。


车祸发生了。。。后来的日子呢?不记得了,有好多人。。。好多人。。。拼命叫我给他爱的人、拼命说会给我爱得人。。。被性侵犯了。匆匆,出现了第三、第四个他。。。

人,在不同的阶段总是会为不同的事情在忙着。终于,遇到了他,给我爱情的人。也停止了我为爱情而忙的阶段。

“WEI,今晚有空吗?出来见个面吧,我好想你” 另一个男人说着。

“好啊 。”

监狱风云

监狱风云

看了EYE ASIA,觉得顶有趣的,就POST了跟大家笑一笑。

撑竿跳戒毒
英国一所青少年监狱为了激励犯人积极改造,在监狱内推出一项撑竿跳课程。第一批的学员共有30人,狱方希望能从中培养出运冠军来。一些吸毒者在练了撑竿跳后,从此解除毒瘾,让负责人喜出望外,认为体育锻炼对于告别毒瘾有显著的作用。然而,附近一些居民却忧心忡忡,担心这些撑竿跳的学员锻炼得太好,会跳墙越狱。狱方则大派定心丸,说监狱的围墙有1。6米,而墙头布满数十俚米高的带刺铁丝网,即使他们练出世界记录保持者布勃卡的6。14室外世界记录,也插翅难飞。

跨国借牢房
比利时监狱人满为患,而邻国荷兰却相反,有许多闲置的牢房。比利时司法部脑筋动到荷兰的牢房去,打算向邻国求援,就近租下这些牢房来使用。比利时司法部发言人说,比国政府已经在兴建新的监狱,但是距离完工还有一段时间,听说过去苏格兰曾经向荷兰租下监狱,他也想比照办理。不过,已被荷兰REJECT了,比利时方面则打算通过外交途径,再度向荷兰求援。如果事成,接下来比利时的囚犯就很有可能在国外坐牢了。

笑一笑,祝福我。

Your Skin Care kills or Cure you?!

Ever heard of the words: methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben, benzylparaben, butylparaben.... Then look at your ingredient list of your skin care, body lotion, shampoo, underarm deodorant etc...See them? Ok, fine, and what are them?

Parabens are a group of chemical which are favored as cheap and effective preservatives that hamper the growth of bacteria and fungi (bacteriocidal & fungicidal properties), and yet do not impact/modify the viscosity, colour, fragrance and overall performance of the product they are used in.

And now look at the statements below:

UK scientists' analysis of 20 breast tumours found high concentrations of para-hydroxybenzoic acids (parabens) in 18 samples. Parabens can mimic the hormone estrogen, which is known to play a role in the development of breast cancers. From this research it is not possible to say whether parabens actually caused these tumours, but they may certainly be associated with the overall rise in breast cancer cases.

And i found that the below statement is interesting, not going to conclude anything, and you...think about it!

"One would expect tumours to occur evenly, with 20 per cent arising in each of the five areas of the breast," "But these results help explain why up to 60 per cent of all breast tumours are found in just one-fifth of the breast - the upper-outer quadrant, nearest the underarm."


Parabens are skin deep?

Yes...Previously published studies have shown that parabens are able to be absorbed through the skin and to bind to the body's estrogen-receptors,where they can encourage breast cancer cell growth.

A Danish study found that when a paraben cream was spread on the backs of healthy men, the substance showed up in their blood samples in mere hours.This demonstrates that parabens do indeed penetrate the human skin from cosmetic products

No....Some scientists maintains that the amount of parabens absorbed by the skin is very low and the parabens are "metabolised by the skin cells to produce products that have no estrogenic activity".

Aha...why the studies so controversial?

These studies basically focused on the use of parabens in underarm deodorants and lotions that applied to breast, i'm not so sure whether it is safe to use paraben on other parts of body. But i recommend that women should not use cosmetic products containing parabens until their safety can be established. Try to go for products which are parabens-free , but they are shorter shelf life.
