How to remove gallstones and also how to detect it

One of the symptoms of gallstones is a feeling of bloatedness after a heavy meal. You feel like you can’t digest the food. If it gets more serious, you feel pain in the liver area.” So if you think you have gallstones, Chiu Nan offers the following method to remove them naturally.

The treatment is also good for those with a weak liver, because the liver and gallbladder are closely linked.

Regimen:
1. For the first five days, take four glasses of apple juice ever day. Or eat four or five apples, whichever you prefer. Apple juice softens the gallstones. During the five days, eat normally.
2. On the sixth day, take no dinner.
3. At 6 PM, take a teaspoon of Epsom salt (magnesium sulphate) with a glass of warm water.
4. At 8 PM, repeat the same. Magnesium sulphate opens the gallbladder ducts.
5. At 10 PM, take half cup olive oil ( or sesame oil ) with half cup fresh lemon juice. Mix it well and drink it. The oil lubricates the stones to ease their passage.

How to identify synthetic vitamins

• Organic substances generally have common names because they come from natural food sources.
• For e.g "Lemon Grass" instead of acetate and palmitate; "Citrus" instead of "Vitamin C" or "Parsley" instead of "vitamin K"
• Find words that end with "ate" or "ide" in the list of ingredients.
• For e.g. nitrate, acetate, sodium ascorbate, sodium benzoate, chloride, hydrochloride, silicon dioxide and titanium dioxide.
• In the ingredients label search for words that begin with "dl."
• For e.g. Natural Vitamin E = d-alpha-tocopherol; Synthetic Vitamin E = dl-alpha-tocopheryl

These are the simple ways to identify synthetic vitamins , so you people out there please look out for it.

What kind of facial mask should you use during menstrual cycle?

During – Moisturizing face masks and whitening eye masks. Why so ?

This is to prevent the skin from looking dehydrated and rough. As during menstruation, a certain percentage of the water within the body and blood was lost. 

Products recommendation: Nu Skin Creamy Hydrating Masque, Napca moisturize mist.

Second week after the menstrual – Skin is at its best and there is increase in production of sebum. Thus also will create fine lines. Thus this season is best to use whitening masks to eliminate melanin.

 Products recommendation: Nu Skin Tri phasic white mask.

Weeks before and after the menstrual – Deep cleansing so as to prevent the pores that are being stretched.

Week after menstrual (post safe period) – The amount of hormones increases at a high speed in this week. If we choose to use repairing facial masks or soothing masks for seven day, our skin would definitely recover more quickly. Repairing facial masks or soothing masks have the function of activating cells. They usually contain acidic substances, such as salicylic acid.

  Products recommendation: Nu Skin 180 AHA Facial Peel and Neutralizer.

March Holidays for Kids

It has been a long while that I got angbao from my 5th grand auntie cos I have not been visiting her during chinese new year due to that she said no need to visit her during chinese new year to my dad.

The importance of having the right beliefs in our own mind adapted from JosephPrince.com of mediate of success

Case scenario 

 

When things go wrong in our lives, we often ask the question, “What did I DO wrong?” We believe that something we did brought about the bad thing that has happened. Granted, there are consequences to our actions, but what brought about those actions in the first place? It’s our beliefs!

So the question we should really be asking is not, “What did I do wrong?” but “Where have I gone wrong in my believing?” The bad things that we are experiencing today are often a result of the wrong beliefs that we have. Similarly, the good things that we are experiencing today are a result of believing right about the Lord’s grace, love and promises for us.

Beloved, I pray today that the Holy Spirit will reveal to you areas of wrong believing in your life so that any hindrances to your breakthrough may be removed. Just go to the Lord right now and ask, “Where have I believed wrong, Lord?” And let Him guide you into all truth and show you the way to your victory.

When you know the truth and believe right, you will live right, experience freedom from bondages and walk in the blessings of God!

Verse to mediate on :  And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. John 8:32

7 Ways to practice peace adapted from Joyce Meyers's promises for your everyday life devotional

7 Ways to Practice Peace

Living in God's peace is vital to enjoying life. I believe that one of the keys to living with peace in your life is taking small steps toward peace every day. Here are a few tips you can use to develop a more peaceful lifestyle.

1. Be selective with how you spend your time. You may be trying to do too many things and end up doing none of them well. Hurrying is the flesh trying to do more than the Holy Spirit is leading you to do. Be led by the Spirit.

2. Be prepared to say "no" nicely. Sometimes we take on things we shouldn't because we're uncomfortable saying no. Ask God to give you the words to say no when you need to.

3. Resist the spirit of procrastination. God's Word tells us to exercise self-discipline. Do what you know you need to do now so you can fully enjoy your times of rest.

4. Eliminate key distractions. If you know you are prone to certain distractions, such as watching TV, set some guidelines for yourself.

5. Set appropriate boundaries for interruptions. Life is full of interruptions, but you can learn to set boundaries that help you manage them in healthy ways, such as scheduling times when you are "off limits." Schedule time to give yourself a break.

6. Modify your life. Ask God to show you out-of-the-box ways to save time and trouble. For instance, when I don't have time to do the dishes, I use paper plates!

7. Pray and listen. If you can see that your plan is not producing peace, go back to God, pray for peace in the now, and for the wisdom to make changes that will benefit your life.

The bottom line is to make peace a priority, take practical steps toward it, and let God lead you every day into His perfect peace that passes all understanding.

Prayer Starter: God, lead me into Your peace that passes all understanding. Show me the daily steps I can take to walk in Your peace for me.

The answer for a guilty conscience from the excerpt from Jospeh Prince's daily devotional

The Answer For A Guilty Conscience-Hebrews 9:14

14 how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

Have you heard the voice of your conscience saying things like, “You deserve hell for the sins you committed against your wife three years ago” or “Why are you surprised that your child is not talking to you? You were never around when he needed you”?


That is why you must have an answer that will satisfy your conscience. When your conscience says, “You have sinned. You must be punished for this sin or else God is not a just God,” you say, “Yes, I have sinned. But this sin and every other sin that I have committed were punished to the maximum in the body of Jesus Christ! So there remains no more punishment for me today, for how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, cleanse my conscience!”


My friend, the only way to bring peace to your conscience is to look to the cross. The cross of Jesus is the only answer that will satisfy your conscience.

So the next time your conscience condemns you because of sin, don’t try to silence it with your good works. Look to the cross and say, “Father, thank You for Jesus and the cross. Jesus was totally condemned on my behalf for this sin, so there is now absolutely no condemnation left for me.” Then, your conscience will look at the cross and say, “Ahhhh... peace.” My friend, Jesus’ finished work at the cross truly sets you free!



If you are willing to accept Jesus as your personal Lord and Saviour, please pray the following prayer

Prayer: Thank you Lord, for sending your son Jesus Christ to died for me at the cross. Please forgive me of my sins and I receive you King Jesus into my life as my personal Lord and Saviour. Lord, I give you Lordship over my heart , my mind  and my soul. In Jesus Mighty Name, I pray Amen.
