四種幫助體內環保的食物

四種幫助體內環保的食物

1. 大麥茶－解膩去辣助消化

大麥茶具有平胃止渴、消渴除熱、化穀食之功，有利於食物消化。老少咸宜，特別適合逢年過節吃完大餐時飲用，可以解膩、助消化。

2. 檸檬水－排毒通便抗衰老

檸檬是一種營養和藥用價值都很高的水果，具有很強的抗氧化作用，促進肌膚的新陳代謝、延緩衰老及抑制色素沉澱。檸檬還具有生津解渴、止渴化痰的功效。

3. 青蘿蔔－解膩減肥又抗癌

青蘿蔔富含人體所需的營養物質，水多味甜，是著名的生食品種，人稱水果蘿蔔。

4. 木瓜－調整腸胃去油膩

木瓜含有大量的木瓜蛋白酶，又稱為木瓜酵素，對動植物蛋白有較強的水解能力，因此可去除食物中的油膩。

十大健康飲食習慣

養成十大健康飲食習慣

健康是每個人的追求，要擁有健康，需要從日常生活的點滴做起，如加強鍛煉、養成良好的生活習慣等等。好的飲食習慣是你健康長壽的前提。

1、睡前吃些高纖維食物：睡前半小時吃些低熱量的碳水化合物零食，比如穀類食物，有助於睡眠。大多數人每天攝入的纖維量只有身體需要量(25—35克)的一半，所以，建議抓住睡前的最後時刻補充一下。

2、用涼開水泡紅茶：與青菜或胡蘿蔔相比，紅茶中含有更多的抗氧化物質，可以有效幫你抵抗皺紋和癌症的侵擾。日本最新研究顯示，每天喝兩杯以上紅茶的人，遭遇流感病毒侵襲的幾率要比不喝的人少30%。用熱水泡茶會比冷水泡茶釋放出更多的咖啡因與單寧，導致週期性頭痛、失眠等症狀，而用涼開水泡茶可使其中的有益物質在不被破壞的情況下，慢慢溶出。

3、有些素菜要“葷”著吃：油吃多了不好，但一點不吃更不好。專家表示，南瓜、胡蘿蔔中含有大量β—胡蘿蔔素，因此不能吃得太清淡，用油炒一下更有利營養素吸收。如果南瓜用來煮粥，那麼保證其他菜裡有油，讓它們到腸胃裡會合。

4、蔬果沙拉的汁用來蘸著吃：蔬果沙拉中的醬汁會給原本健康的菜帶來不少熱量。最好把調好的醬汁放在一個小碗裡，用切好的菜蘸著吃，這樣，你需要的醬汁只是原來的1/6。

5、冷水洗肉，熱水洗菜：許多人洗肉前，喜歡拿熱水泡上一會兒。殊不知，用溫水或熱水洗肉，不但容易變質、腐敗，做出來的肉口感也會受影響。最重要的是，會加速肉中蛋白質、氨基酸和B族維生素的流失。專家指出，溫水比涼水更容易去除果蔬表面的農藥殘留。

6、每餐之前喝兩杯水：控制體重，對大多數人來說是一場持久戰。飯前喝兩小杯水能減少饑餓感和食物攝入量，比節食減肥的效果更明顯。除喝水外，餐前吃水果、蔬菜和麥片粥，同樣含熱量少，還有助於增進飽腹感。

7、複合維生素飯後吃：生活中吃得精細，會損失大量B族維生素；蔬菜過度浸泡會泡掉大量水溶性維生素；食品放置時間過長，或油煎、烘烤等烹飪方式都可能減少維生素含量。這時，補充複合維生素就像上了一道保險，而且最好飯後吃。葉酸、維生素B、C等水溶性維生素如果飯前空腹吃，很快通過胃進入小腸被吸收，還沒完全被人體利用就通過尿液排出體外。維生素A、D、E、K等脂溶性維生素必須溶於脂肪類食物中才能被吸收，如空腹服用，大部分都不能被吸收。

8、生吃洋蔥防心臟病：洋蔥含有大量保護心臟的類黃酮，每天生吃半個，或喝等量的洋蔥汁，可增加心臟病人約30%的好膽固醇。尤其在吃烤肉這樣不怎麼健康的食物時，裡面的洋蔥就像你的“救命草”。專家指出，洋蔥對高血壓、高血脂和心腦血管病人確實有好處，而且生吃、涼拌效果最佳。

9、深色水果抗衰老：買水果時盡量選深色的那種。相比淺色水果，深色水果裡含有更多的抗氧化劑、維生素、硒、鐵、鈣、鋅等物質，具有防癌、抗癌、抗衰老等功效。

10、七點前吃晚餐：人體排鈣高峰期是餐後4—5小時，晚餐吃得太晚，不僅影響睡眠、囤積熱量，而且容易引起尿路結石。老年人晚餐的最佳時間最好在下午六七點，而且應不吃或少吃夜宵。

Chat with your friends heart to heart;

Learn dance or swim to break your own records…

Read a book with thoughts and make you think…

Happiness is around us - everywhere

Just open up, just to appreciate.

What I think leads to what I can get ...

Everyday

 

To think of

 what I can do for myself for improvement;

what I can do for my family;

what I can do for the people around;

what I can do for the society.

 

My character is shaped by what I think and do;

My happiness attitude is built on the four purposes I am pursuing for.

最補腎的食物

最補腎的水果：桑椹，桑椹滋肝腎固精、充血液，久服黑髮明目。故腎虛之人，尤其是腎陰不足者，食之最宜。

最補腎的糧食：黑米，稱為"補血米"，"世界米王"，滋陰補腎、補益脾胃、益氣活血、養肝明目。

最補腎的豆：黑豆，黑豆又稱"腎之谷"，"烏髮娘子"，腎虛的人食用黑豆可以補腎烏髮、解毒利尿，有效緩解尿頻、腰酸、女性白帶、下腹部陰冷症狀。

最補腎的干果：栗子，又稱"腎之果"，益氣補脾、厚腸胃、補腎強筋、活血止血，每天將四顆生栗子細嚼成漿慢慢嚥下，對中老年腎虛腰腿痛尤為有效。

最補腎的蔬菜：韭菜，又稱"壯陽草"。溫中行氣、散瘀、補肝腎、暖腰膝、壯陽、固精。

另外常用的補腎佳品還有：芝麻、核桃、葵花籽、南瓜子、木耳、海蝦、海參、海馬、鱸魚、羊肉、羊脊骨、山藥、芡實、枸杞、杜仲、淫羊藿。

What makes the difference ...

After reading a series of books and having taking self development courses, I found what make the big difference between successful people and ordinary ones are the ability to learn from failures, the power of reflection and energy to change.

Positive, optimistic attitude is the key to give them the spirit for change.

Attitude on failure and and audacity on making failure drives them to take risk, try and  rise from falls and to succeed.

成功沟通工作坊

刚参加华山博士成功沟通方程式工作坊。感受最大的是华山和被访问者那种谦卑所带来的IMPACT.

"凡事从别人角度想一想，大部分问题都可以避免“。

怎样才能做到呢?只有肯放下自我，才能谦卑，只有谦卑，心中才能放进别人，走进别人世界，才会看到自己的Blind spots. 令自己更中肯，客观地看世界。

体谅，包容，遵重，一生的学
问...

在这个工作坊,我感受道沟通的前提是心态要正.不要想去改变别人,去赢别人,这个态度只能令人反感.

华山讲道三个要领:1-关爱的心态; 2-真心,具体,有深度的欣赏; 3-技巧(亲切的叫名;多用探讨试的问句与对方讨论;以分享的语气解释自己的意见).

帮助别人提升的同时,也是在提升自己.

让别人感到受到尊重,是建立沟通桥梁的第一步.

楚天都市报讯据《华西都市报》报道倒立着用手走、爬着走、拄着拐杖走……这一切，是颜玉宏每天都要经历的。他今年刚满10岁，但是这样的上学路，他已经坚持了4年多。
　　颜玉宏家住四川省宜宾市屏山县屏山镇蒋坝村，据颜玉宏的奶奶介绍，在颜玉宏还没满1岁的时候，有一次发高烧，病情加重，患上了小儿麻痹症，下半身瘫痪，失去了知觉。
　　每天早晨7点15分，颜玉宏拄着拐杖，姐姐拿着两人的书包，奶奶跟在身后，一行三人从家里出发去上学。有一条必经之路是很窄很滑的田坎路，只得奶奶背着颜玉宏走。走上公路后，他担心奶奶累着了，便叫奶奶放下让自己走。
　　颜玉宏走路的方式有几种：倒立着用手走、爬着走、拄着拐杖走……路上有很多小石子，手磨痛了就把鞋子套在手上继续走，实在走不动了才让奶奶背。
　　8时许，经过1个多小时的路程，颜玉宏才能到达学校。
　　家里四处借钱给颜玉宏看病，钱用光了，父母只好出去打工挣钱。奶奶每天除了接送颜玉宏读书，还要做很多农活。“我只希望孙儿能多读书，将来能靠手养活自己。”

Lizzie Velasquez, Born Without Adipose Tissue: 'Maybe You Should Stop Staring And Start Learning'

Twenty-three-year-old Lizzie Velasquez was born without any adipose tissue -- meaning she has no fat on her body.
As a result, she weighs just 58 pounds, even though she eats as many as 60 times a day, the Daily Mail reported. she has been the subject of cyberbullying and stares when she walks out in public, she recently revealed to Dr. Drew Pinsky on HLN.
Some cyberbullies even dubbed her the "ugliest woman in the world," because of her appearance due to her medical condition, she said.
"It's not easy, I will be the first to tell you it's not easy," Velasquez told Dr. Drew. "I may have this outer exterior of people saying, 'She can handle everything, she's dealt with this for so long,' and to be honest, I'm human and of course these things are going to hurt."
Back in 2010, The Telegraph reported that Velasquez consumes 5,000 to 8,000 calories a day -- eating food every 15 minutes. But because of the condition, the Texas State University in San Marcos student has never weighed much more than 60 pounds, she wrote in the description of her book that came out earlier this year, titled "Be Beautiful, Be You."
Velasquez's condition is extremely rare; she is just one of three people in the entire world to have it, she noted in her book description.
The Telegraph reported that doctors believe she may have something called Neonatal Progeroid Syndrome. It is a condition that leads to premature aging, but is different from the more common aging disorder, progeria, according to the National Institutes of Health. It is characterized by wrinkled skin, not much fat, a large head, a face that looks aged and visible veins in the scalp.

 

"I think the biggest things I have to deal with is constantly people staring at me as soon as I walk into a room," Velasquez told Dr. Drew. "Recently, it's been a lot of adults I've been having to deal with who will slowly walk in front of me and turn their heads, and look me up and down. So the stares are what I'm really dealing with in public right now."
But "instead of just sitting by and watching these people judge me, I'm starting to want to go up to these people and introduce myself, or give them my card, and say, 'Maybe you should stop staring and start learning.'"
