Coral Calcium

Shigechiyo Izumi is world’s oldest living person according to the Guinness book of World Records. He is 115 years old and retired from work at the age of 105, despite which he enjoys a remarkable health and is very active physically. He is Japanese residing on the Sango Coral islands in and around Okinawa. His secret has been revealed by medical tests as consumption of coral calcium.

The Sango islands were formed from Sango Coral reefs which have a chemical composition similar to human bones. During rain, the rain water naturally percolates through these reefs and accumulates various minerals and elements. The water becomes rich in essential vitamins and has a pH value between 7 and 8.5, indicating high alkalinity. This water contains a high level of coral calcium.

Sango coral is the only one of its kind to have these unique qualities (health benefits to human beings) out of about 2500 species of corals. It occurs in abundance only around Okinawa, Japan. Today, over 4 million Japanese are in the habit of consuming coral calcium capsules daily, as a result of the efforts of the Japanese government. The Japanese government authorized mining of Sango Coral sand for coral calcium about 10 years ago. This operation is very carefully monitored so that no living coral is damaged, and extracts, pulverizes and treats the Sango Coral sand rich in calcium, magnesium and trace minerals to produce coral calcium. The result is packed into capsules, which when consumed raise the pH level of the body to a healthy alkalinity.

The other cultures around the world who enjoy longevity are Titicacas of Peru, Azerbaijans, Armenians, Hunzas of Pakistan and Tibetans. They attribute this to drinking “Milk of the Mountains” – the molten glacier water which contains crushed rocks in the glacial ice, is turbid and white like milk. The scientific inference from these is that consumption of Calcium whether coral calcium or in other forms is beneficial in prolonging human life.
   
Coral calcium is full of trace minerals, the major ones being calcium and magnesium. Humankind has been depleted of micronutrient elements essential for proper functioning of body cells. The soil polluted by industrialization does not have enough minerals to keep the human body going. These have to be present in the soil first to be absorbed into fruits, vegetables and other edible natural food. In contrast coral Calcium consists of 74 trace minerals that are naturally ionized which results in better absorption by the human body. Strangely, but truly there have never been doctors in Okinawa, Japan, owing to coral calcium, proving the effectiveness of coral calcium in keeping the human body healthy and fit, apart from longevity. Over 200 diseases are linked to mineral deficiency including diabetes, cancer, heart disease, gall bladder and kidney stones and arthritis. Coral calcium, by providing essential minerals helps in keeping the pH balance in human body.
   
pH in normal terms means potential hydrogen. It is a measure of hydrogen ion concentration in a fluid. pH is measured on a scale of 14, 7 being the midway or neutral. A pH value below 7 indicates acidic and above 7 indicates alkaline. When a fluid is acidic, it is oxygen deprived. A human body is said to be non diseased only when the pH value of bodily fluid is alkaline measuring between 7 and 8 on the pH scale. The normal pH value of blood is between 7.35 and 7.45. If it drops below 6.8 or rises above 7.8, life becomes non existent.

Coral calcium increases the oxygen level in the body enabling to dump the toxic waste that keeps accumulating. Drinking oxygen rich spring or mineral water having high pH level combined with coral calcium and other minerals arms the human body with disease fighting ability, naturally.

Eating Like The Spanish

Bored of cooking every day the same meals, the same recipes, and want to try something different and exotic?

You can choose any culture, any country you want and you will find specific traditional food for each and every one of them. But there is something different about the way the Spanish cook, they just make food enjoying it and this is what matters and offers such tasty results.

First of all you have to know Spanish people like to eat a lot of eggs. But they never, or almost never, eat boiled eggs like we do. The traditional egg preparation method is to scramble them and fry them, obtaining a delicious omlette with potatoes and lots of onions added in the frying pan. The Spanish tortilla, as it is called is an exceptional and nutritional way to feed your family for lunch.

Diet Using Negative Calories

We can have a diet using negative calories. The main idea is that our body uses more calories to digest some aliments than the calories we know those aliments contain themselves by analyzing the combination of nutritional components of the specific aliments. If we burn more calories than we consume, then we will lose weight.

The theory is in fact very appealing: the body has to consume energy in order to digest the food. For example, an orange has about 50 calories. To process all nutritional components and vitamins that an orange contains, our body will burn more than just 50 calories.

The diet using negative calories is more a solution we can call on in some specific periods, when our body is overwhelmed with nutrition, like holidays, Christmas, New Year’s, birthdays, weddings, and less of a solution that can be used on a long term.

Food and Health: Becoming A Healthy Eater

Being a healthy eater requires you to become both educated and smart about what healthy eating 

actually is. Being food smart isn't about learning to calculate grams or fat, or is it about studying labels and counting calories.

Healthy eating is all about balanced and moderate eating, consisting of healthy meals at least three times per day. Healthy eaters eat many different types of foods, not limiting themselves to one specific food type or food group.

Eating healthy requires quite a bit of leeway. You might eat too much or not enough, consume foods that are sometimes more or less nutritious. However, you should always fuel your body and your brain regularly with enough food to keep both your mind and body strong and alert.

A healthy eater is a good problem solver. Healthy eaters have learned to take care of themselves and their eating with sound judgement and making wise decisions. Healthy eaters are always aware of what they eat, and know the effect that it will have on their bodies.

When someone is unable to take control of their eating, they are also likely to get out of control with other aspects of life as well. They could end up spending too much, talking too much, even going to bed later and later.  

You should always remember that restricting food in any way is always a bad thing. Healthy eating is a way of life, something that you can do to enhance your body or your lifestyle. If you've thought about making your life better, healthy eating is just the place to start. You'll make life easier for yourself, those around you, and even your family.
