I fucking love garlic. It stinks, but it is fucking delicious and I decided to see how good it is for you and it is. Besides preventing cancer, garlic has been known to decrease fungal infections and bacteria in the body, lower cholesterol, and decrease risk of heart disease. Now onto cinnamon. I love this stuff too. Studies have shown that just 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon per day can lower LDL cholesterol. 2. Several studies suggest that cinnamon may have a regulatory effect on blood sugar, making it especially beneficial for people with Type 2 diabetes. 3. In some studies, cinnamon has shown an amazing ability to stop medication-resistant yeast infections. 4. In a study published by researchers at the U.S. Department of Agriculture in Maryland, cinnamon reduced the proliferation of leukemia and lymphoma cancer cells. 5. It has an anti-clotting effect on the blood. 6. In a study at Copenhagen University, patients given half a teaspoon of cinnamon powder combined with one tablespoon of honey every morning before breakfast had significant relief in arthritis pain after one week and could walk without pain within one month. 7. When added to food, it inhibits bacterial growth and food spoilage, making it a natural food preservative. 8. One study found that smelling cinnamon boosts cognitive function and memory. 9. Researchers at Kansas State University found that cinnamon fights the E. coli bacteria in unpasteurized juices. 10. It is a great source of manganese, fiber, iron, and calcium.
So, might it be safe to use...you know...down there? It would sure be a better alternative to garlic.
You know, I was fucking bored, and drinking, and I am glad I stumbled in here. I actually laughed pretty good at that shit. It was funny. So you do any writing for a sitcom before? I think we could use you on the set of 'Take that Douche Bag'......
Funny how? How do you mean funny? Like I'm a clown for you? I'd like to write comedy. I have an English degree, a quick wit, and a drinking problem. But, I'm not Jewish so I just do my thing here instead.
Its actually quite easy, theres only 2 interchangable jokes, the one where they knew it was coming, and the one where they didnt know it was coming.
Raw, organic chocolate is one of the most powerful, health-promoting foods that we know of. Here are the key reasons why eating raw chocolate is good for your health: * Raw chocolate is naturally rich in flavonoids, which are natural nutrients with antioxidant properties - the same nutrients that make berries, grapes, and green tea health-promoting foods. * Flavonoids that are abundant in raw chocolate can protect your cells against damage by free radicals, which can help to prevent premature aging. * Flavonoids in raw chocolate are good for your heart, as they can help to prevent stickiness of platelets, which are cells that play an important role in blood clotting. * Flavonoids can help your body produce nitric oxide, a compound that promotes a healthy cardiovascular system. Before you make conventional chocolate bars a staple in your diet, it's important to understand that the health benefits of chocolate are mainly due to its rich flavonoid content. And the more chocolate is processed, the fewer flavonoids it retains. Fewer flavonoids translates to less antioxidant content and less potential health benefits. If you want to eat chocolate to optimally support your health, your best choice is raw, organic chocolate that has no added ingredients like sugar, milk, and oil. Your next best choice is dark chocolate with 70 percent or more cocoa content, but this ranks a distant second to raw chocolate, since conventional dark chocolate bars are exposed to significant heat and processing. The worst choices are milk and white chocolate. Most varieties of milk chocolate have only about 25 to 50 percent the flavonoid content of dark chocolate, and white chocolate has no flavonoids. The antioxidant content of different foods is measured by what's called the ORAC test; the higher the ORAC value for a food, the greater its antioxidant content. Here is a list of ORAC values for foods that are known to be rich in antioxidants, as calculated by the United States Department of Agriculture and the Journal of the American Chemical Society: Dark chocolate 13,120 Milk chocolate 6,740 Prunes 5,770 Raisins 2,830 Blueberries 2,400 Blackberries 2,036 Kale 1,770 Strawberries 1,540 Spinach 1,260 Raspberries 1,220 Brussels sprouts 980 Plums 949 Alfalfa sprouts 930 Broccoli 890 Beyond its value as a food that is super-rich in antioxidants, raw chocolate is also abundant in the following health-promoting nutrients: * Serotonin (3 mg per 100 g) and tyramine (2 mg per 100 g) - both are capable of creating a mild calming effect. * Copper (0.8 mg per 100 g) - needed for energy production, proper nerve signaling, optimal bone health, and formation of healthy connective tissue in your heart and blood vessels. * Phenylethylamine (PEA) - can help to promote mental alertness and focus. It is also thought to combat feelings of depression, and is released within your brain when you are in love. * Magnesium (131 mg per 100 g) - is needed for healthy bones and teeth, energy production, and optimal heart, nerve, and muscle health. Magnesium levels tend to be low during menstruation, which may explain why some women tend to crave chocolate on a periodic basis. http://drbenkim.com/raw-chocolate.htm
I knew Chocolate was good but not that good. I also understood white chocolate was not chocolate at all. I read that chicks love chocolate to the extent it can be classified as an aphrodisiac.
I don't know about that, but I have read that too. I think the 'good for you' chocolate would be pretty bitter... like baker's chocolate. I read about it being a pain reliever due to the endorphins it releases.
Pomegranates "Pomegranate juice contains the highest antioxidant capacity compared to other juices, red wine and green tea..." "Antioxidants can protect us against the oxidative stress in our industrialised world, such as pollution, chemicals, viruses and bacteria, and consequently cardiovascular diseases and cancer," said Professor Aviram.
I love that "POM" tea. Yummy. And you get a free glass! Also, at the hippie-mart up the street from my house they sell this 80% chocolate that is so strong I only want a little at a time, but it's super good.
It's a big deal now. I was just talking about that last night at the store when I saw Pomegranate 7-Up. I think it's just seasonal though.
