H1N1 and Acidic Food

I got this from a forwarded email of my biras, and I was not surprise when the Prof's founding is to consume more alkaline food and drink because high acidity in our body may weaken our immune system, thus making the body more vulnerable to any kind of diseases including H1N1.

In actual fact, the Prophet Rasulullah saw has portrayed his action of consuming alkaline food/drink in many hadeeth as a leading example for us. For instance, Air Zam-zam is highly alkaline and the miracle of the zam zam water is unquestionable. Besides that, Rasulullah also loved goat's milk and science have proven that goat's milk is alkaline in nature, just like Mom's milk whereas cow's milk produce an acid reaction which promotes the growth of bacteria, fungi and virus. Read more on alkaline and acidic food here. And do you know that now goat's milk is available in powder form produced by local Muslim Bumiputera co? I can confirm you that there's no goaty stingy smell whatsoever and me and hubby love it! We add that in our Vico or Kopi Radix as a substitute to creamer - the result is fantabulous! Dah xpayah bubuh gula sbb rasa lemak susu kambing amat sedap, so save some calories from taking sugar. I'm currently taking Hiraq and HR Higoat as my daily milk intake and slowly saying goodbye to cow's milk. If and only if HnyB have to consume formula, goat's milk is definitely my 1st choice. (the price is way above the ceiling so I hope my milk is enough for all my babies forever. Hoho) My millionaire boss' baby drinks goat's milk since he was 6mo. Anak org kaye. hohoh.


Anyway, the prof suggests to drink coconut water. Read this article or visit his blog to read further. Take care peeps!

Former associate professor of ecology at Universiti Malaya has authored several books on complementary therapy called, 'Ecological Healing System'.

Dr Palaniappan said his 33 years of research had shown that high acidity in the body resulted in loss of immunity, thus making people more susceptible to viral diseases like Influenza A (H1N1).

Hence, to prevent acidity, it was essential to consume alkaline food and drinks that could neutralise excess acid in the body.

Dr Palaniappan recommends coconut water, which is alkaline, and therefore could be used as a herbal medicine for the prevention of H1N1.

For example, he said, those who felt feverish and developed a burning sensation while attending to a call of nature because of extreme acidity, could neutralise it by drinking coconut water, twice a day, for three days.

He also recommended orange, lemon and pomelo which, despite containing citric acid, were very rich in potassium and therefore, would not disturb the body's immunity.

According to Dr Palaniappan, excessive physical activity like running a marathon should be avoided as it produced acid due to excessive metabolic activity.

Similarly, he said, keeping late nights without adequate sleep and working without proper rest could also increase the body's acidity which in turn, lowered immunity and made the body vulnerable to viral attacks.

Dr Palaniappan's blog: http://ecohealingsystem.blogspot.com/ discusses the therapy in more detail.

5S at home!

It has been 2 weeks. Yes two weeks without K Zan around the house to help me with tonnes of workloadssss. I just wish all the clothes know how to lipat themselves and find their own way to the wardrobe. I just wish there's a huge electromagnet field in the house that can attract/suck all the rambut gugur and habuk on the floor so that mata aku x sakit memandang and nadirah x kutip makan. I just wish the semak fridge and kitchen can do auto self cleansing. I just wish 5S campaign that we just launched at my ofiice is also applied at home. Oh yes, my house is actually has received the 5S certificate from NPC since Ice Age. The 5 'Asses' are - Sepah, Semak, Selerak, Sorok and SERABUT! HuWARGhhHh. I just can't believe how on earth can't I manage a less than 800 sqft place I call home tho I've tried hard and fail big time. Buntu. Ramadhan is around the corner and I'm going to greet the Holy Month with Kinabalu Mountain of baju x berlipat and cluttered house and my Mom is coming next week to join our jungle of mess. Great!

If you know anyone who can come over and do some makeover to my little apartment, please let me know.

Chill out mummy! I'll help you as soon as know how to walk, ok? Mwahh.

Pergi Tak Kembali

Vokalis kumpulan nasyid Rabbani, Ustaz Mohd Asri Ibrahim, 40, disahkan meninggal dunia kira-kira pukul 10.30 pagi tadi akibat serangan jantung ketika dalam perjalanan ke Hospital Pantai, Bangsar.

Menurut salah seorang anggota Rabbani, Mohd. Asri Baidul @ Ubaidullah, arwah jatuh pengsan semasa memberikan ucapan dalam sidang media program ‘Syahadah’ di Angkasapuri, Radio Televisyen Malaysia (RTM) kira-kira pukul 10 pagi tadi.

Jenazah dimandikan dan dikafankan di hospital itu sebelum dibawa ke rumah arwah di Jalan Ikan Keli, Kampung Bukit Lanchong, Shah Alam untuk dikebumikan sebelum Asar.

arwah dan anak yang sangat disayanginya

Sementara itu, Ustaz Abdullah yang menziarahi arwah di hospital sebentar tadi sempat berkongsi pengalamannya ketika menatap wajah allahyarham

” Saya melihat sesosok tubuh yang baring telah siap dikafankan. Kain putih yang bersih dengan tangan yang diletakakan dibadan.

Saya menatap wajah sahabat saya ini. Wajahnya bersih, tersenyum. Saya membacakan fatihah kepadanya. Perlahan-lahan saya menghampiri jenazahnya, saya cium dahinya yang bersih ini. Biasanya dahi ini akan ditemankan dengan kopiah beliau.

Saya menghampiri telinga beliau, saya bisikan.

“aku saksikan, bahawa engkau telah banyak berjuang untuk agama”

Tiba-tiba saya menjadi sebak. Pada ketika itu air mata saya berlinang. Saya cuba menahannya tetapi saya tidak mampu. Saya menundukkan kepala saya, mengesat air mata yang mengalir di kelopak.

Saya cium dahinya untuk kali kedua. Kali ini saya pegang bahu beliau, saya ucapakan lagi padanya:-

“sahabat, selamat berehat”, “

arwah dan ibu kesayangannya

TERKINI

Jenazah Ustaz Asri telah selamat dikebumikan pada jam 9.00 malam tadi di Tanah Perkuburan Islam, Seksyen 21.

Apalagi yang hendak dikatakan apabila di saat nyawanya hendak dicabut pun Ustaz Asri sempat meminta senaskah Al-Quran untuk dibaca…syurgalah hendaknya tempat mu sahabat, InsyaAllah.

I was so sad listening to his nasyid @ IKIM while driving this morning. Semoga Allah masukkan beliau dalam golongan hamba Allah yg soleh. Amin.

Just the 2 of us...

This is Mummy's best friend.

Getting cheekier and cheekier each day...

Good girl kene behave malam2 ok sayang..? Baik Mummy.

From now on, there are just two of us together all night long, Mon to Fri, patiently waiting for Abi to arrive every Friday night approximately around 10pm. Mummy looks after Nadirah and Nadirah take care of Mummy and wakes Mummy up for Subuh [by pulling my hair really hard, serious!] K Zan is @ K Wati's house and will going back to Tganu next Monday. Allah has made the first 6 months [long toughest months] without Abi a smooth sailing journey [ade gaks tornado once in a while] by having Mak (0-2 months) and K Zan (2-6 months) to help me all along. Now is reality. Hanya Allah yang tahu how it feels. Nadirah is behaving very good so far alhamdulillah. But, Mummy must be around her proximity +-10cm radius, else she cried out her lung, kidneys, pancreas and everything else.

Love is tough :~~[

Progress 5 - No Progress

The result is out from VP's office. [He emailed me]

It is a BIG NO NO NO.

Alhamdulillah we didn't move anything in the house even an inch, or inform tuan rumah that we're leaving. Allah sees this is coming so He saves our sweat from doing all these.

So Progress 5 is a No Progress actually.

Allah knows best, kan? :-)

Book your lunch date with me Lana if you want to know more. I'm ok tomorrow, not Thursday and Friday.
