Good Foods


We all know that what we eat can help us prevent certain illnesses. We see on
television all the time about people who are ill because of their diet. Well,
maybe we should say lack of a diet. These people tend to be at risk of disease
because they don't have the right things to eat. When people think of health and
prevention, I think some of them think about pills and their doctor. To some
people, they think these are the only tools they have. That isn't true. In fact,
there are more important tools for you to use.Our diet is important not just for
our appearance. A good diet will decrease your chance of getting cancer and
other diseases. I know that it is hard to believe that just what we eat can play
such a big role, but it does.
Think of it like this. As the old saying goes, you are what you eat. That is
true. Your body needs many things to survive. Over the long term you realize
that diet is more important than ever before. I probably just like you have
known many people who have had cancer. Also, we see on television all the time
famous people getting cancer. A lot of these people don't smoke. They don't do
drugs, rarely drink alcohol.
Why are they getting cancer? I'm sure some of it has to do with genetics and
some of it has to do with pollution. While up to 1/3 of it, is due to diet.
That's right, they get cancer because what they eat. Perhaps it could be said
better by saying, what they don't eat. Let's talk about some of the foods you
should eat to prevent cancer and other illness. This is an important article, so
I would bookmark it and come back when you have any questions.
Apples. It was once said, an apple a day will keep the doctor away. This is
true. These are loaded with vitamins A and C. They also help lower cholesterol
and they lower your chance of getting cancer.
Broccoli. Just because a former president didn't eat his, doesn't mean you
should avoid yours. Actually, this is one of my favorite veggies. One serving
has 97% of your vitamin C for the day. Also, it is a good source of calcium.
Oranges. Not only do these babies taste good, but they are good for you as well.
They do help in preventing colds and flues. They also help prevent many forms of
cancer. They are one of my favorite fruits.
Onions. Half an onion a day will lower your cholesterol. Also, if you ever
notice how you tear up when you cut an onion. They are good for people with
asthma or other breathing problems. They open up the head so to speak. Also they
fight cancer such as stomach cancer. You might not know it, but onions were once
believed to be sent from god. They were believed to make people live longer and
healthier. One thing you might not know is, onions reduce your risk of heart
attacks and strokes. Maybe there is some truth to all of that god stuff after
all.
Carrots. Carrots have beta carotene which has been known for a long time to
fight cancer. Remember when you were a kid and were told to eat your carrots or
you will go blind? Well, that isn't true, but they are good for the eyes.
Salmon. Out of all the fatty fish, this one is best for you. It contains omega-3
fat, which is very good for your heart. People who eat salmon at least once per
week are said to have a 50% lower chance of heart attack.
Beans. You know these little devils. I used to eat them the night before going
to school so I could fart all day long. Not only are these good for prostate
cancer, but they also are a good source of fiber.
Seaweed. No, I don't mean a joint that you smoke while at sea. I mean the stuff
that comes from the ocean. This is loaded with iodine and other things. It has
calcium, magnesium, and iron. This is very good for fighting cancer.
Lemons. All you have to do is go to the supermarket and see how many lemon
flavored cold remedies there are to see the potential of this citrus fruit.
Lemons are a great way to prevent a cold, the punch of vitamin C will keep you
healthy. It is also good for sore throats.
Garlic. What doesn't this stuff do? Well, while it might not be a cure all like
once believed. It does prevent almost everything under the sun. From heart
disease to cancer, this is great stuff. I suggest that you study up on garlic so
that you understand all of the good things it does. It would take an article the
length of a book to go into great detail.
There you have it. Though I'm sure you are some what surprised, I'm sure that
you will be able to absorb all the info in this article. If you can't, just
bookmark it and read where you left off.

Bangladesh Informations

Bangladesh emerged as an independent and sovereign country in 1971 following a ninemonth war of liberation. It is one of the largest deltas of the world with a total area of 147,570 sq. km. With a unique communal harmony, Bangladesh has a population of about 142 million, making it one of the densely populated countries of the world. The majority (about 88%) of the people are Muslim. Over 98% of the people speak in Bangla. English, however, is widely spoken. The country is covered with a network of rivers and canals forming a maze of interconnecting channels.
Bangladesh has a glorious history and rich heritage. Once it was known as ‘Sonar Bangla’ or the Golden Bengal. The territory now constituting Bangladesh was under the Muslim rule for over five and a half centuries from 1201 to 1757 AD. Subsequently, it came under the British rule following the defeat of the sovereign ruler, Nawab Sirajuddaula, at the battle of Palassey on 23 June, 1757. The British ruled over the Indian sub-continent including this territory for nearly 190 years from 1757 to 1947. During that period, Bangladesh was a part of the British Indian provinces of Bengal and Assam. With the termination of British rule in August 1947, the sub-continent was partitioned into India and Pakistan. Bangladesh formed a part of Pakistan and was called ‘East Pakistan’. It remained so for about 24 years from August 14, 1947 to March 25, 1971. Bangladesh liberated on December 16, 1971 following the victory of the War of Liberation and appeared on the world map as an independent and sovereign country.The country is the pioneer in micro-credit concept for poverty reduction, which brought the Nobel Prize in Peace for the country in 2006. The founder of world reputed Grameen Bank Professor Dr. Muhammad Yunus is the Nobel laureate.
