Fat/Grease(duhn, sha'hm)
Don't hate fat just because it makes you fat. Take it in moderation and it makes you look good.Fat does not necessarily means the solid, yellow, oily stuff. It could also be pointing at veggie oils (sesame oil, essence of violets, etc..) and stuff like that. SO, think positive.Benefit of fats;-

Raisins(Zabib)
These dried grapes are just the perfect snacking. You can even eat it with cereals, oats or bake cookies with them. And don't kids just love it? Well, I love eating them too. Choose for seedless and bigger raisins, they are slightly the better option. Raisins and sultanas, what's the difference? does it matter? It's only color.
Here are the reasons why you should be including raisins in your daily diet:-

  • Relieves coughing, suitable for windpipe and relieves bowel movements.(Soak a handful in a glass of water, leave overnight. Drink in the morning, water,raisins and all).
  • Adds strength to the stomach and soothes intestinal cavity.
  • More nutritious than grapes or even dried figs.
  • Boost brain cell development and activity.
  • Strengthens spleen and liver.
  • Beneficial for the throat, chest, liver, lungs, prostate and phlegm.
Okay break again. Time for bed.Thanks for reading.To be continued...
