Prayer request update

2012-01-25T14:15:00.001-07:00

Hi everyone,
Thank you for praying for my brother. Please continue to pray or him. He is still really sick. His neurologist and his eye doctor both say that he needs a LP shunt put in his back to relieve the extra spinal fluid that is pressing on his brain but the neurosurgeons can't agree on what to do. His vision keeps getting worse and so does his pain. Please pray that we can find a solution soon.

Prayer request

2012-01-07T23:39:00.001-07:00

Hello everyone,Tonight I am asking all of you to pray for my brother. He is in the hospital having emergency Neuro tests done to see if he needs to have a shunt placed in his head. He was diagnosed with inter cranial hypertension a few months ago. And we were trying to manage it with LP'S and medications. But last night his eye sight got really bad and the pain became unbearable so we called the Dr. And she got him a hospital bed and there doing test now. So please pray for him.- Posted using BlogPress from my iPad

New church

2011-06-03T06:00:00.001-07:00

Hi everyone,

Sunday was the first service of our new church Heritage Fellowship. It was so nice. Our church closed over two years ago and we live in a very small town where there aren't very many options as far as church goes. There was only one English speaking Southern Baptist church in my town and when it closed we didn't have any where to go. For a while we did home church and that was really good for all of us.
But now my family and several other families are starting a new church.
We have been so blessed. A Spanish speaking church in town was so kind and is sharing their building with us. It is so amazing how God works thing out. These people are being so kind and loving toward us. They are showing God's love toward us in a way that I haven't seen people do in along time.
It has been an amazing few weeks just watching God put everything together.

Taco night

2011-06-02T10:37:00.001-07:00

Hi everyone,
Last night was taco night. For the past few months almost every time we had tacos some one got hurt not because of the tacos of course. It has been so weird. Back in November one of my brother got in a ATV accident and got a head injury on taco night. Then a few months later my other brother got in a ATV accident and gashed his head on taco night. After that one of my brother shocked himself pretty bad when installing an outlet. And last week both of my brothers were putting expansion cock on something and it exploded on both of them and that kind of cock doesn't come off easily it takes weeks.
But last night was nice.
No one was injured in any way and the tacos were really good.
Life in my house in never boring:)

Have any of you guys ever been in AWANA as a clubber or a leader? Please comment and tell me about your experience in AWANA.

Fun with the wii

2011-04-05T19:31:00.007-07:00

Hi everyone,
This week I have been playing with the wii fit plus and I love it. It is so much fun. Get to run miles and do yoga and all kinds of other exercise. And the best part is that a lot of them only need a remote not the balance board but the balance board is needed for some of them.
This actually makes exercising fun.

I also wanted to put in a link to a site that is kind of like eBay http://www.bidrack.com/refer/114036 it looks like a really cool site.

Health facts

2010-11-21T20:16:00.002-07:00

Hi everyone,

With it being so close to Thanksgiving I wanted this week health facts to be about sweet potatoes. Here are some interesting facts about sweet potatoes.

As an anti-oxidant: Sweet potatoes have been found to contain a high amount of anti-oxidant, making it suitable in combating inflammatory problems like asthma, arthritis, gout, etc.

Diabetes: This fibrous root is suitable for diabetics' consumption as it is a very good blood sugar regulator, helps to stabilize and lower insulin resistance.

Emphysema: Smokers and people who inhale second-hand smoke should regularly consume foods high in vitamin A as smoke has been found to induce vitamin A deficiency, causing a host of other health problems to the lungs.

Fetal Development: The high folate content is important and necessary for healthy fetal cell and tissue development.

Immune System: Regular consumption of sweet potatoes strengthens the body's immune system and develop resistance to infection.

Heart diseases: Consumption of this high potassium root helps to prevent heart attack and stroke. It helps maintain fluid and electrolyte balance in the body cells, as well as normal heart function and blood pressure.

Muscle Cramps: A deficiency in potassium can cause muscular cramps and greater susceptibility to injury. Make sweet potatoes a regular part of your diet if you exercise a lot, both for an energy boost and to prevent cramps and injuries.

Stress: When we are stressed, our metabolic rate rises, causing the body potassium levels to be reduced. By snacking on the potassium-packed sweet potato, it helps to rebalance the vital mineral, and helps normalize the heartbeat. This in turn sends oxygen to the brain and regulates the body's water balance.

Health facts--Banana's

2010-11-01T07:00:00.002-07:00

Hi everyone

I am back doing health facts again. And this weeks is about bananas. I love bananas especially with ice cream and chocolate sauce:)

Here are some of the health benefits of banana's.

Anemia: Bananas provide iron which is essential for the production of hemoglobin, myoglobin and many enzymes essential for the formation of red blood cells.

Blood Pressure: A recent study has revealed that "two bananas a day will keep blood pressure at bay". This is definitely a cheaper and definitely a much healthier alternative to expensive drugs.

Brain Food: Research has shown that students eating banana at breakfast, break and lunch are more alert in the class. The potassium in banana boost their brain power, assisting much in their learning ability.

Constipation: The pectin content in bananas is water-absorbent, creating the necessary bulk in easing constipation. Definitely a healthier choice over laxatives.

Diarrhea: Eat a ripe banana. It normalizes colonic functions in the large intestine by absorbing large amounts of water and helps regulate proper bowel movements.

Energy: The carbohydrates content in bananas is used as fuel for your muscles. Eating bananas is a good energy booster for athletes.

Heartburn: Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana to counteract the stomach acidity for a soothing relief.

Morning Sickness: Snacking on bananas frequently helps to keep your blood sugar levels up, thus preventing the nauseous feeling.

Mosquito bites: When stung by a mosquito, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. It is amazingly effective at reducing swelling and itchiness.

Muscle Cramps: A deficiency in potassium can cause muscular cramps and greater susceptibility to injury. Make bananas a regular part of your diet if you exercise a lot, both for an energy boost and to prevent cramps and injuries.

Quit Smoking: The vitamins B6 and B12, and the potassium-magnesium combination found in bananas has a profound effect in helping the body recover from nicotine withdrawal of one who is trying to quit smoking.

Stomach Ulcer: This is the only fruit that a chronic ulcer sufferer can eat without causing distress to the stomach. It neutralizes the over-acidity of the gastric juices and reduces the irritation of the ulcer by coating the stomach lining. Ripe bananas relieve acute symptoms and promote the healing process.

Stress: When we are stressed, our metabolic rate rises, causing the body potassium levels to be reduced. By snacking on the potassium-packed banana, it helps to rebalance the vital mineral, and helps normalize the heartbeat. This in turn sends oxygen to the brain and regulates the body's water balance.

Hi everyone,

This weeks health facts are about lemons and limes.

Asthma: Take a tablespoon of lemon juice at least one hour before each meal to relieve asthma.

Burning soles/feet: Rub a sliced lemon over the burning sole/foot/heel to relieve from pain and for toxin elimination through the pores of the feet.

Constipation: Drink a glass of warm water every morning with some lime/lemon juice with raw honey. Stir in a pinch of cinnamon powder. This will help your body to detoxify and relieve constipation.

Digestion: Lime/lemon juice have amazing digestive qualities that are very similar to our digestive enzymes. Thus it is effectively helps with digestion and relieve bloating and belching.

Feet, tired: After a long day on your feet, soak your feet in very warm water containing lime/lemon juice to enjoy the cooling, astringent feeling. This will also help promote deep sleep due to the relaxing action on the foot nerves.

Health facts-Broccoli

2010-07-11T19:38:00.004-07:00

Hi everyone,

This weeks health facts are on broccoli. My favorite way to have broccoli is with cheese on it in a baked potato:)

Health Benefits

Bone-building:

A cup of broccoli juice a day goes a long way to provide calcium for strong bones building. Far better than cow's milk that contains saturated fats and has no other healing virtues as broccoli does.

Breast cancer:

Broccoli has an anti-estrogenic compound known as glucosinolates that are especially helpful to excrete excess estrogen that are linked to breast cancer.

Digestive system:

Like all cruciferous vegetables, broccoli promotes good colon health, protecting against constipation and colon cancer.

Eye disorders:

The high anti-oxidant level in broccoli promotes overall good health and is the best defenses against eye diseases. Lutein in broccoli is especially protective for age-related macular degeneration.

Immune system:

Just half a cup of broccoli juice a day will provide more than your daily required vitamin C that helps boost immunity and fight many diseases.

Stomach disorders:

The high content of sulforaphane in broccoli may help to rid the body of the Helicobacter pylori which is responsible for most peptic ulcers. It also helps other stomach disorders like gastritis, esophagitis and acid indigestion.

Tumors:

Sulforaphane is found in extremely high concentration in broccoli sprouts, that help stimulate the body's production of detoxification enzymes which may help reduce the size of tumors.

Smoking also quickly depletes the vitamin A in a smoker, but cantaloupe juice can help replace it with its beta-carotene.

Foods that are bad for us--Oil

2010-05-26T07:00:00.000-07:00

Hello everyone,

I am going to try to write a post every week about what foods are bad for us, why we shouldn't eat them and what we should eat instead of them. I got this information off of this website.

Vegetable Oils
Vegetable oils like corn, soy, and canola are beneficial on their own. But by using them for cooking they are heavily refined and processed, rendering them rancid and
toxic. For a long time now, these cooking oils have been mistakenly regarded as
the "healthier" choice, but experts have now pointed out that this is a fatal
mistake. The truth is, coconut oil unlike most unsaturated oils, coconut oil does
not turn toxic when cooked. You can also use oils like extra virgin olive oil for light cooking and sauteing, or even grapeseed oil for high heat cooking.

Health facts-Strawberries

2010-05-25T15:28:00.003-07:00

Hi everyone,

I thought that because it summer time this weeks health facts should be on strawberries.

I love strawberries. Yesterday my mom made strawberry bread with lemon curd it was so good.

Well here are the health facts about strawberries.

Health Benefits of strawberries

Anti-anemic:

Strawberries can help prevent and fight certain types of anemia, due to their high content in folic acid, which is essential for the synthesis of hemoglobin, the protein in red cells responsible for carrying oxygen throughout the body.

Anti-cancer:

Strawberry is included in the list of top "superfoods" that help lower cancer death rates. This is because of the very high content of various anti-oxidants with flavonoids that work synergistically and more powerfully against oxidation and preventing damages caused by free radicals in our body.

Anti-coagulant:

Strawberries contain moderate amount of acetylsalicylic acid, the same active ingredient found in aspirin. Although the amount of acetylsalicylic acid found in strawberries is not enough to relieve influenza symptoms, it can be actually helpful to thin blood and prevent blood clots formation, thereby reducing the work of the heart and improving its function.

Anti-inflammatory:

Anthocyanidin is a unique flavonoid that makes strawberries a very powerful protector against inflammatory conditions such as asthma, gout, artherosclerosis, arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. At the same time it protects against intestinal bleeding.

Brain and mental health:

It has been shown that, besides having an anti-anemic effect, folic acid found in strawberries can help improve memory, concentration and the brain’s ability to process information. It is also essential for preventing brain defects in babies during pregnancy.

Digestive health:

Due to their high content in vitamin C, strawberries stimulate the secretion of salivary and gastric juices, thereby improving the digestion of starchy and protein foods. In addition, fiber contained in strawberries effectively reduces constipation and cleans the colon, with a beneficial detox effect for the body.

Diuretic:

The high content in potassium found in strawberries enhances diuresis, which contributes to detoxifying the body, as well as regulating blood pressure.

Heart health: Anti-oxidants found in strawberries, and especially vitamin C and anthocyanidins, may help protect arteries from damage, as well as preventing the formation of blood clots within blood vessels.

Immune system:

Strawberries are very rich in vitamin C, which plays a key role in enhancing immune system function, as well as in preventing and fighting infectious diseases such as flu and cold.

Mood:

Eating strawberries and drinking strawberry juice stimulate the release of serotonin, which improves mood and is responsible for a feeling of relaxation and a general sense of well-being.

Natural remedies- Bad breath

2010-05-12T07:00:00.000-07:00

Hi everyone,

This weeks natural remedies are on bad breath.

Here are the home Remedies and Natural Cures for Bad Breath Treatment

Natural Remedy for Bad Breath Using Citrus Fruits
Bad breath is often simply the result of a dry mouth. If this is the case, simply eating a citrus fruit that is high in citric acid (such as an orange, lemon, or grapefruit) can help improve your breath significantly. The acid in such fruits stimulates the saliva, which helps suppress some of the odor-causing bacteria. At the same time, the tangy taste of such fruits leaves the mouth smelling fresh.

Bad Breath Home Remedy Using Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple Cider Vinegar has recently been used as an effective mouthwash that provides long-lasting relief from bad breath. Simply dilute 1/2 tablespoon of the vinegar into a glass of water and gargle it in your mouth for 10 seconds at a time.

Bad Breath Home Remedy Using Baking Soda
Baking soda is a fantastic remedy for bad breath, since it changes the pH (acidity) level in your mouth, which results in a less friendly environment for odor-causing bacteria. Simply add some baking soda onto your toothbrush, brush with it, and then rinse with water. Another option is to purchase toothpastes that already contain a small amount of baking soda. It is also important to brush the top of your tongue with your toothbrush every morning, since this helps dislodge many odorous particles that contribute to bad breath.

Herbal Remedy for Bad Breath with Tea Tree Oil
Tea Tree Oil, is a natural cure for bad breath when used as a toothpaste additive. Simply add a drop of the oil to your toothpaste right before you brush. You can also create a Tea Tree Oil mouthwash by adding 3 drops of the oil to a cup of warm water. Gargle this solution two to three times a day, preferably after each meal. NOTE: It is important that you always spit out the Tea Tree Oil mouthwash or toothpaste. Never swallow it.

1) Japanese Knotweed which shuts down the inflammatory pathways initiated by the Lyme disease spirochete. It is reported to impact the exact pathways that are used by Lyme disease to promote inflammation within the body. It crosses the blood-brain-barrier. It is a potent antioxidant and has a protective effect on the brain. Buhner states that if he could recommend one thing, it would be for every Lyme infected person on antibiotics to take Japanese Knotweed in conjunction with their conventional therapy as it increases the effectiveness by at least double.

2) Cat’s Claw reliably raises CD57 natural killer cells in those with Lyme disease. It is a very powerful anti-arthritic herb.

3) Eleutherococcus can be very helpful for those with fatigue. It also stimulates immune function, reduces brain fog, and reduces depression.

4) Astragalus is a good immune tonic. It can help to lessen the severity of the disease process when taking as a preventive or immediately after infection. It is not, however, indicated in chronic Lyme disease.

5) Andrographis crosses the blood-brain-barrier and modulates immunity. It also protects heart tissue and is anti-inflammatory.

Natural remedies

2010-04-15T08:00:00.000-07:00

Hi everyone,

Here are four herbs that are really good for treating allergies.

EUCALYPTUS

As a natural allergy cure, eucalyptus effectively calms coughs and relieves nasal congestion and is often found in cough and cold remedies, chest rubs, and various oils and liniments to relieve pain. It is both an antiseptic and a stimulant with expectorant and antibiotic properties. The powerful vapor from eucalyptus clears congestion and loosens mucus. It is especially effective when used in conjunction with steam treatments. In lozenge form, eucalyptus increases the production of saliva to reduce the urge to cough. Given these properties, eucalyptus is considered to be one of the best natural allergy remedies.

RED CLOVER

Red Clover is a traditional remedy for asthma when taken in the form of a tea and as allergies and asthma may be associated, can be used as an allergy remedy.

ALFALFA

Alfalfa is thought to improve the runny nose, sneezing and itching present in allergic rhinitis which is often called "hay fever." Additionally, alfalfa is believed to nourish the nervous system and to calm the immune system thus allowing irritated mucus membranes to return to normal. (Some people have reported allergic reactions to alfalfa itself and the use of the herb should be discontinued if your symptoms seem to worsen.)

APPLE CIDER VINEGAR

Apple cider vinegar contains many healing properties and is often used to ease the symptoms of sinus infection as well as to treat allergies developed from exposure to pets, foods, and various environmental agents. In addition to being rich in vitamins E, A, B1, B2 and B6, apple cider vinegar contains potassium, calcium, and magnesium. It reduces the amount of mucus in the sinus cavities, soothes sore throats, and will shorten the duration of colds when used with a chest compress.

Hi guy's

Here are this weeks health facts.

This weeks facts are about apple's.

Do you know the old saying an apple a day keeps the doctor away?

Here are the reasons why they keep the doctor away.

10 Health Benefits of Apples

1.Bone Protection

French researchers found that a flavanoid called phloridzin that is found only in apples may protect post-menopausal women from osteoporosis and may also increase bone density. Boron, another ingredient in apples, also strengthens bones.

2.Asthma Help

One recent study shows that children with asthma who drank apple juice on a daily basis suffered from less wheezing than children who drank apple juice only once per month. Another study showed that children born to women who eat a lot of apples during pregnancy have lower rates of asthma than children whose mothers ate few apples.

3.Alzheimer's Prevention

A study on mice at Cornell University found that the quercetin in apples may protect brain cells from the kind of free radical damage that may lead to Alzheimer's disease.

4.Lower Cholesterol

The pectin in apples lowers LDL ("bad") cholesterol. People who eat two apples per day may lower their cholesterol by as much as 16 percent.

5.Lung Cancer Prevention

According to a study of 10,000 people, those who ate the most apples had a 50 percent lower risk of developing lung cancer. Researchers believe this is due to the high levels of the flavonoids quercetin and naringin in apples.

6.Breast Cancer Prevention

A Cornell University study found that rats who ate one apple per day reduced their risk of breast cancer by 17 percent. Rats fed three apples per day reduced their risk by 39 percent and those fed six apples per day reduced their risk by 44 percent.

7.Colon Cancer Prevention

One study found that rats fed an extract from apple skins had a 43 percent lower risk of colon cancer. Other research shows that the pectin in apples reduces the risk of colon cancer and helps maintain a healthy digestive tract.

8.Liver Cancer Prevention

Research found that rats fed an extract from apple skins had a 57 percent lower risk of liver cancer.

9.Diabetes Management

The pectin in apples supplies galacturonic acid to the body which lowers the body's need for insulin and may help in the management of diabetes.

10.Weight Loss

A Brazilian study found that women who ate three apples or pears per day lost more weight while dieting than women who did not eat fruit while dieting.
