Yo Peeps! Did you know that food is EXTREMELY important? You are what you eat, literally!! I'm not only talking about growing fat or not. I'm talking about your behavior, your character, controlling and healing your minor and major illnesses, your skin's complexion and even your IQ!!! ( And not to mention that it provides you with energy to carry on with a day's work!) And do you know something that is even more interesting?


It VARIES with your blood type!
Food generally has the same function for every blood type, your blood type only varies on how well you are able to digest and absorb those vital nutrients. For example, did you know that blood type B easily grows fat eating wheat(noodles) while the other blood types does not? This is due to the fact that blood type Bs does not metabolize(use up) this food well and as a result, accumulates as fats. Blood type As and ABs often produce more stress hormones and this worsens with a lack of food, imposing more stress on the body. ( you can find out more in the book 'EAT RIGHT FOR YOUR TYPE' by Dr. Peter J. D' Adamo with Catherine Whitney)

Omega3 supplements
Did you know, eating fish oils like Omega 3 fatty acid from fishes like Salmon would help regulate your mood and is of high importance for the stuctures of the Brain and nerve cells?

Dark Chocolate cupcakes:D
Did you know eating Dark Chocolate lowers your risk of getting cardiovascular dieseases?
Vitamin C from citrus fruits like oranges help boost our immune system, preventing us from falling sick less easily!

One combination of nutrients, Vitamin E, Vitamin C and Zinc would help clear up complexions.(which does not work on mine..well..cus i'm too stressed and my pimples keeps forming...)
a cup of milk
Melatonin found in milk helps induce sleep for sleepless people in the dark, that's why you would usually feel sleepy after drinking a cup of it at night. (Refer to this website on more details as to why milk makes you drowsy---> http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/426358/why_milk_makes_you_drowsy_melatonin.html)
Wheatgrass!:)
Superoxide Dismutase(SOD) found naturally in barely grass, broccoli, brussel sprouts, cabbages, wheatgrass...ect. have been known to revitalise cells and reduce the rate of cell destruction , even neutralizing free radicals which have been known to cause cancer. ( Find out more from 'Prescription for NUTRITIONAL HEALING- the A-To-Z Guide to Supplements by PHYLLIS A. BALCH)

I have also came across a few herbs which people have claimed to help improve in their terminally ill-health conditions( which i can't recall) or even help to heal up completely from those dieseases. I do not know how true this claims are but I do know that melatonin can help heal insomia.

And the list goes on. There is still many secrets of food yet to be discover and up till today, people are still finding new facts every now and then. Food is the basis for the survival of man kind, it's no wonder than it hold an important place in the developement of every individual.
