Here are just a few reasons why:<br /> <br />A woman over 40 will never wake you in the middle of the night and ask, 'What are you thinking?' She doesn't care what you think.<br /> <br />If a woman over 40 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit around whining about it. She does something she wants to do, and it's usually more interesting. <br /> <br />Women over 40 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you if they think they can get away with it.<br /> <br />Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know what it's like to be unappreciated.<br /><br />Women get psychic as they age. You never have to confess your sins to a woman over 40.<br /> <br />Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 40 is far sexier than her younger counterpart.<br /> <br />Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off if you are a jerk, if you are acting like one. You don't ever have to wonder where you stand with her.<br /> <br />Yes, we praise women over 40 for a multitude of reasons. Unfortunately, it's not reciprocal. For every stunning, smart, well-coiffed, hot woman over 40, there is a bald, paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year old waitress. </b></span><span style="font-family:sans-serif;font-size:100%;color:#800000;"><b>Ladies, I apologize. </b></span><span style="font-family:sans-serif;font-size:100%;"><b><br /> <br />For all those men who say, 'Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?

Fine, thank ya. Jus' admirin' them peas. They sure look good.'<br /><br />'They are good, Barry. How's your Ma?'<br /><br />'Fine. Gittin' stronger alla' time.'<br /><br />'G ood. Anything I can help you with?'<br /><br />'No, Sir. Jus' admirin' them peas.'<br /><br />'Would you like to take some home?' asked Mr. Miller.<br /><br />'No, Sir. Got nuthin' to pay for 'em with.'<br /><br />'Well, what have you to trade me for some of those peas?'<br /><br />'All I got's my prize marble here.'<br /><br />'Is that right? Let me see it,' said Miller.<br /><br />'Here 'tis. She's a dandy.'<br /><br />'I can see that. Hmmmmm, only thing is this one is blue and I sort of go for red. Do you have a red one like this at home?' the store owner asked.<br /><br />'Not zackley but almost.'<br /><br />'Tell you what. Take this sack of peas home with you and next trip this way let me look at that red marble,' Mr. Miller told the boy.<br /><br />'Sure will. Thanks Mr. Miller.'<br /><br />Mrs. Miller, who had been standing nearby, came over to help me. With a smile she said, 'There are two other boys like him in our community, all three are in very poor circumstances. Jim just loves to bargain wit h them for peas, apples, tomatoes, or whatever. When they come back with their red marbles, and they always do, he decides he doesn't like red after all and he sends them home with a bag of produce for a green marble or an orange one, when they come on their next trip to the store.'<br /><br />I left the store smiling to myself, impressed with this man. A short time later I moved to Colorado , but I never forgot the story of this man, the boys, and their bartering for marbles.<br /><br />Several years went by, each more rapid than the previous one. Just recently I had occasion to visit some old friends in that Idaho community and while I was there learned that Mr. Miller had died.<br /><br /><br />They were having his visitation that evening and knowing my friends wanted to go, I agreed to accompany them. Upon arrival at the mortuary we fell into line to meet the relatives of the deceased and to offer whatever words of comfort we could.<br /><br />Ahead of us in line were three young men. One was in an army uniform and the other two wore nice haircuts, dark suits and white shirts... all very professional looking. They approached Mrs. Miller, standing composed and smiling by her husband's casket. Each of the young men hugged her, kissed her on the cheek, spoke briefly with her, and moved on to the casket.<br /><br />Her misty light blue eyes followed them as, one by one, each young man stopped briefly and placed his own warm hand over the cold pale hand in the casket. Each left the mortuary awkwardly, wiping his eyes.<br /><br />Our turn came to meet Mrs. Miller. I told her who I was and reminded her of the story from those many years ago and what she had told me about her husband's bartering for marbles. With her eyes glistening, she took my hand and led me to the casket.<br /><br />'Those three young men who just left were the boys I told you about. They just told me how they appreciated the things Jim 'traded' them. Now, at last, when Jim could not change his mind about colour or size, they came to pay their debt.'<br /><br />'We've never had a great deal of the wealth of this world,' she confided, 'but right now, Jim would consider himself the richest man in Idaho.'<br /><br />With loving gentleness she lifted the lifeless fingers of her deceased husband. Resting underneath were three exquisitely shined red marbles.<br /><br />The Moral: We will not be remembered by our words, but by our kind deeds... Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath.<br /><br />Today I wish you a day of ordinary miracles ~ A fresh pot of coffee you didn't make yourself...An unexpected phone call from an old friend...Green stoplights on your way to work....The fastest line at the grocery store...A good sing-along song on the radio...Your keys found right where you left them.<br /><br />Send this to the people you'll never forget.. I just Did....<br /><br />If you don't send it to anyone, it means you are in way too much of a hurry to even notice the ordinary miracles when they occur. </b></span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:6;color:#004080;"><b><br /><br />IT'S NOT WHAT YOU GATHER, BUT WHAT YOU SCATTER THAT TELLS WHAT KIND OF LIFE YOU HAVE LIVED</b></span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;"> </span></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table></div></div></div></div></div></blockquote></td></tr></tbody></table></div></div></div></div></div>Kc and Ykhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11047179989686299933noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3898131024011018705.post-21775010506714948832010-05-07T03:59:00.000-07:002010-05-07T04:00:00.656-07:00The Good Husband<div class="ReadMsgHeader ClearBoth"> <div class="ReadMsgSubject">FW: The Good Husband</div> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tbody><tr> <td class="ReadMsgHeaderCol1">From:</td> <td>

Jack is not normally a drinker, but the drinks didn't taste like alcohol at all. He didn't even remember how he got home from the party. As bad as he was feeling, he wondered if he did something wrong.</span><span style="font-family:Eras Medium ITC;font-size:100%;color:#000080;">
<br /></span><span style="font-family:Eras Medium ITC;font-size:130%;color:#000080;">
<br />Jack had to force himself to open his eyes, and the first thing he sees is a couple of aspirins next to a glass of water on the side table. And, next to them, a single red rose!! Jack sits up and sees his clothing in front of him, all clean and pressed.</span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;">
<br /></span><span style="font-family:Eras Medium ITC;font-size:130%;color:#000080;">
<br />He looks around the room and sees that it is in perfect order, spotlessly clean. So is the rest of the house. He takes the aspirins, cringes when he sees a huge black eye staring back at him in the bathroom mirror. Then he notices a note hanging on the corner of the mirror written in red with little hearts on it and a kiss mark from his wife in lipstick: "Honey, breakfast is on the stove, I left early to get groceries to make you your favorite dinner tonight. I love you, darling! Love, Jillian"</span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;">
<br /></span><span style="font-family:Eras Medium ITC;font-size:130%;color:#000080;">
<br />He stumbles to the kitchen and sure enough, there is hot breakfast, steaming hot coffee and the morning newspaper. His 16 year old son is also at the table, eating. Jack asks, "Son.. what happened last night?"</span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;">
<br /></span><span style="font-family:Eras Medium ITC;font-size:130%;color:#000080;">
<br />"Well, you came home after 3 A.M., drunk and out of your mind You fell over the coffee table and broke it, and then you puked in the hallway, and got that black eye when you ran into the door.</span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;"> </span>
<br /><span style="font-family:Eras Medium ITC;font-size:130%;color:#000080;">Confused, he asked his son, "So, why is everything in such perfect order and so clean? I have a rose, and breakfast is on the table waiting for me??"</span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;">
<br /></span><span style="font-family:Eras Medium ITC;font-size:130%;color:#000080;">
<br />His son replies, "Oh THAT...

You have heard people complaining - every time I eat watermelon I burp, when I eat durian my stomach bloats up, when I eat a banana I feel like running to the toilet etc - actually all this will not arise if you eat the fruit on an empty stomach. The fruit mixes with the putrefying other food and produces gas and hence you will bloat! </span></span></p></div></div> <div> <div> <p style="text-align: center;" align="center"><span style="font-family:Arial Unicode MS;font-size:100%;color:#003300;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 51, 0);">�</span></span></p></div></div> <div> <div> <p style="text-align: center;" align="center"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:180%;color:blue;"><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: blue; font-family: Arial;">Graying hair</span></span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:180%;color:#003300;"><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: rgb(0, 51, 0); font-family: Arial;">, </span></span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:180%;color:red;"><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: red; font-family: Arial;">balding</span></span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:180%;color:#003300;"><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: rgb(0, 51, 0); font-family: Arial;">, </span></span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:180%;color:maroon;"><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: maroon; font-family: Arial;">nervous outburst</span></span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:180%;color:#003300;"><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: rgb(0, 51, 0); font-family: Arial;">, and </span></span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:180%;color:fuchsia;"><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: fuchsia; font-family: Arial;"><span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1253887565_0">dark circles under the eyes</span></span></span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:180%;color:#003300;"><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: rgb(0, 51, 0); font-family: Arial;"> all these will <b><span style="font-weight: bold;">NOT</span></b> happen if you take fruits on an empty stomach. </span></span></p></div></div> <div> <div> <p style="text-align: center;" align="center"><span style="font-family:Arial Unicode MS;font-size:100%;color:#003300;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 51, 0);">�</span></span></p></div></div> <div> <div> <p style="text-align: center;" align="center"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:180%;color:#003300;"><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: rgb(0, 51, 0); font-family: Arial;">There is no such thing as some fruits, like <span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1253887565_1">orange and lemon</span> are acidic, because all fruits become alkaline in our body, according to Dr. Herbert Shelton who did research on this matter.

For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you. It is nice to have a cup of <span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1253887565_7">cold drink</span> after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion. Once this 'sludge' reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal. </span></span></p></div></div> <div> <div> <p style="text-align: center;" align="center"><span style="font-family:Arial Unicode MS;font-size:100%;color:#003300;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 51, 0);">�</span></span></p></div></div> <div> <div> <p style="text-align: center;" align="center"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:180%;color:#003300;"><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: rgb(0, 51, 0); font-family: Arial;">A serious note about heart attacks HEART ATTACK PROCEDURE': (THIS IS NOT A JOKE!)

I was a conscientious student<br />and had breezed through the questions until I read<br />the last one:<br /><br />"What is the first name of the woman who cleans the<br />school?" Surely this was some kind of joke. I had seen the<br />cleaning woman several times. She was tall,<br />dark-haired and in her 50s, but how would I know her<br />name?<br /><br />I handed in my paper, leaving the last question<br />blank. Just before class ended, one student asked if<br />the last question would count toward our quiz grade.<br />"Absolutely," said the professor. "In your careers,<br />you will meet many people. All are significant. They<br />deserve your attention and care, even if all you do is<br />smile and say "hello."<br /><br />I've never forgotten that lesson. I also learned her<br />name was Dorothy.<br /><br /><br /></span></span><span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;color:blue;"><span style=";font-family:'Comic Sans MS';color:blue;" >2. - Second Important Lesson - Pickup in the Rain<br /></span></span><span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;color:black;"><span style=";font-family:'Comic Sans MS';color:black;" ><br />One night, at 11:30 p.m., an older African American<br />woman was standing on the side of an Alabama highway<br />trying to endure a lashing rainstorm. Her car had<br />broken down and she desperately needed a ride.<br />Soaking wet, she decided to flag down the next car.<br />A young white man stopped to help her, generally<br />unheard of in those conflict-filled 1960s. The man<br />took her to safety, helped her get assistance and<br />put her into a taxicab.<br />She seemed to be in a big hurry, but wrote down his<br />address and thanked him. Seven days went by and a<br />knock came on the man's door. To his surprise, a<br />giant console color TV was delivered to his home. A<br />special note was attached..<br />It read:<br />"Thank you so much for assisting me on the highway<br />the other night. The rain drenched not only my<br />clothes, but also my spirits. Then you came along.<br />Because of you, I was able to make it to my dying<br />husband's bedside just before he passed away... God<br />bless you for helping me and unselfishly serving<br />others."<br /><br />Sincerely,<br />Mrs. Nat King Cole.<br /><br /></span></span><span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;color:blue;"><span style=";font-family:'Comic Sans MS';color:blue;" >3 - Third Important Lesson - Always remember those who serve.</span></span><span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;color:black;"><span style=";font-family:'Comic Sans MS';color:black;" ><br /><br />In the days when an ice cream sundae cost much less,<br />a 10-year-old boy entered a hotel coffee shop and<br />sat at a table. A waitress put a glass of water in<br />front of him.<br />"How much is an ice cream sundae?" he asked.<br />"Fifty cents," replied the waitress.<br />The little boy pulled is hand out of his pocket and<br />studied the coins in it.<br />"Well, how much is a plain dish of ice cream?" he inquired.<br />By now more people were waiting for a table and the<br />waitress was growing impatient.<br />"Thirty-five cents," she brusquely replied.<br />The little boy again counted his coins.<br />"I'll have the plain ice cream," he said.<br />The waitress brought the ice cream, put the bill on<br />the table and walked away. The boy finished the ice<br />cream, paid the cashier and left. When the waitress<br />came back, she began to cry as she wiped down the<br />table. There, placed neatly beside the empty dish,<br />was one quarter, two dimes and five pennies.<br /><br />You see, he couldn't have the sundae, because he had<br />to have enough left to leave her a tip.<br /><br /></span></span><span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;color:blue;"><span style=";font-family:'Comic Sans MS';color:blue;" >4 - Fourth Important Lesson</span></span><span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;color:black;"><span style=";font-family:'Comic Sans MS';color:black;" >. - The obstacle in Our Path.<br />In ancient times, a King had a boulder placed on a<br />roadway. Then he hid himself and watched to see if<br />anyone would remove the huge rock. Some of the<br />king's wealthiest merchants and courtiers came by<br />and simply walked around it. Many loudly blamed the<br />King for not keeping the roads clear, but none did<br />anything about getting the stone out of the way.<br />Then a peasant came along carrying a load of<br />vegetables. Upon approaching the boulder, the<br />peasant laid down his burden and tried to move the<br />stone to the side of the road. After much pushing<br />and straining, he finally succeeded. After the<br />peasant picked up his load of vegetables, he noticed<br />a purse lying in the road where the boulder had<br />been. The purse contained many gold coins and a note<br />from the King indicating that the gold was for the<br />person who removed the boulder from the roadway. The<br />peasant learned what many of us never understand!<br />Every obstacle presents an opportunity to improve<br />our condition.<br /><br /></span></span><span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;color:blue;"><span style=";font-family:'Comic Sans MS';color:blue;" >5 - Fifth Important Lesson</span></span><span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:130%;color:black;"><span style=";font-family:'Comic Sans MS';color:black;" > - Giving When it Counts...<br /><br />Many years ago, when I worked as a volunteer at a<br />hospital, I got to know a little girl named Liz who<br />was suffering from a rare & serious disease. Her only<br />chance of recovery appeared to be a blood<br />transfusion from her 5-year old brother, who had<br />miraculously survived the same disease and had<br />developed the antibodies needed to combat the<br />illness. The doctor explained the situation to her<br />little brother, and asked the little boy if he would<br />be willing to give his blood to his sister.<br />I saw him hesitate for only a moment before taking a<br />deep breath and saying, "Yes I'll do it if it will<br />save her." As the transfusion progressed, he lay in<br />bed next to his sister and smiled, as we all did,<br />seeing the color returning to her cheek. Then his<br />face grew pale and his smile faded.<br />He looked up at the doctor and asked with a<br />trembling voice, "Will I start to die right away".<br />Being young, the little boy had misunderstood the<br />doctor; he thought he was going to have to give his<br />sister all of his blood in order to save her.<br /><br />Now you have 2 choices.<br />1.

Each group was asked to give four reasons for its recommendation.<br /><br />The men's group decided that 'computer' should definitely be of the feminine gender ('la computadora'), because:<br /><br />1 No one but their creator understands their internal logic ;<br /><br />2.

In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on;<br /><br />2. They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves;<br /><br />3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time they ARE the problem; and<br /><br />4.

She was stark<br />naked! As I was reeling from the shock, I heard my 5-year-old shout from<br />the back seat, "Mom! That lady isn't wearing a seat belt!<br /><br />(2) MORE NUDITY<br /><br />A little boy got lost at the YMCA and found himself in the women's<br />locker room. When he was spotted, the room burst into shrieks, with <br />ladies grabbing towels and running for cover. The little boy watched in<br />amazement and then asked, "What's the matter haven't you ever seen a<br />little boy before?"<br /><br />(3) HONESTY <br /><br />My son Zachary, 4, came screaming out of the bathroom to tell me he'd<br />dropped his toothbrush in the toilet. So I fished it out and threw it in<br />the garbage. Zachary stood there thinking for a moment, then ran to my<br />bathroom and came out with my toothbrush. He held it up and said with a<br />charming little smile, "We better throw this one out too then, 'cause it<br />fell in the toilet a few days ago.<br /><br />(4) OPINIONS<br /><br />On the first day of school, a first-grader handed his teacher a Note<br />from his mother. The note read, "The opinions expressed by this child<br />are not necessarily those of his parents,"<br /><br />(5) Tomato Sauce<br /><br /></strong></span></div> <div style=";font-family:times new roman,new york,times,serif;font-size:12pt;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);font-family:Arial;" ><strong>A woman was trying hard to get the sauce to come out of<br />the jar. During her struggle the phone rang so she asked her 4-year-old daughter<br />to answer the phone. "It's the minister, Mommy," the child said to her<br />mother. Then she added, "Mommy can't come to the phone to talk to you<br />right now. She's hitting the bottle,"<br /><br />(6) ELDERLY<br /><br />While working for an organisation that delivers lunches to elderly<br />hospices, I used to take my 4-year-old daughter on my afternoon rounds.<br />The various appliances of old age, particularly the canes, walkers and<br />wheelchairs, unfailingly intrigued her. One day I found her staring at<br />a pair of false teeth soaking in a glass. As I braced myself for the<br />inevitable barrage of questions, she merely turned and whispered,<br />"The tooth fairy will never believe this!"<br /><br />(7)DRESS-UP<br /><br />A little girl was watching her parents dress for a party. When she saw<br />her dad donning his tuxedo, she warned, "Daddy, you shouldn't wear that<br />suit," "And why not, darling?" "You know that it always gives you a<br />headache the next morning,"<br /><br />(8) DEATH<br /><br />While walking along the sidewalk in front of his church, our minister<br />heard the intoning of a prayer that nearly made his collar wilt.<br />Apparently, his 5-year-old son and his playmates had found a dead robin.<br />Feeling that proper burial should be performed, they had secured a small<br />box and cotton batting, then dug a hole and made ready for the disposal<br />of the deceased. The minister's son was chosen to say the appropriate<br />prayers and with sonorous dignit y intoned his version of what he<br />thought his Father always said "Glory be unto the Faaaather, and unto the Sonnn<br />... and into the hole he gooooes,"<br /><br />(9) SCHOOL<br /><br /></strong></span></div> <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128);font-family:Arial;" ><strong>A little girl had just finished her first week of school.<br />"I'm just wasting my time," she said to her mother. "I can't read,<br />I can't write and they won't let me talk!" <br /><br />(10) BIBLE<br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">A little boy opened the big family Bible. He was fascinated as he<br />fingered through the old pages. Suddenly, something fell out of the<br />Bible. He picked up the object and looked at it. What he saw was an old<br />leaf that had been pressed in between the pages. "Mama, look what I<br />found", the boy called out. "What have you got there, dear?" With<br />astonishment in the young boy's voice, he answered, "I think it's<br />Adam's underwear!"</span><br /><br /><br /></strong></span>Kc and Ykhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11047179989686299933noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3898131024011018705.post-85194167977880663862008-12-12T02:39:00.000-08:002008-12-12T02:42:35.166-08:00Breathing TherapySubject: MUST Read - Breathing Therapy<br />Date: Friday, November 14, 2008, 4:00 AM<br /><br /><br /> <br /><br /> Wonder how true it is, but anyway, no harm trying, so !!!!!!!!!!!!???????<br /> <br /> Good day.<br /> <br /><br /> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Breathing Therapy </span> <br /> <br /> The nose has a left and a right side,; we use both to inhale and exhale.. <br /> Actually they are different, you would be able to feel the difference. <br /><br /> The right side represents the sun, left side represents the moon. <br /><br /> <br /> During a headache, try to close your right nose<br /> and use your left nose to breathe.<br /> <br /> In about 5 mins, your headache will be gone. If you feel tired, just <br /> reverse, close your left nose and breathe through your right nose. <br /> After a while, you will feel your mind is re-freshed . <br /> <br /> <br /> Right side belongs to 'hot', so it gets heated up easily, left side <br /> belongs to 'cold'. <br /> Most females breathe with their left noses, so they get "cooled off"<br /> faster.<br /> <br /> Most of the guys breathe with their right noses, they get worked up. <br /> <br /> <br /> Do you notice the moment we wake up, which side breathes faster? Left or <br /> right? If left is faster, you will feel tired. <br /> So, close your left nose and use your right nose for breathing, you will <br /> get refreshed quickly. <br /> This can be taught to kids, but it is more effective when practised by <br /> adults.<br /> <br /> <br /> My friend used to have bad headaches and was always visiting the doctor. <br /> <br /> There was this period when she suffered headache literally every night, <br /> and unable to study. She took painkillers, did not work. <br /> She decided to try out the breathing therapy here: closed her right nose <br /> and breathed through her left nose. <br /> In less than a week, her headaches were gone! She continues the exercise <br /> for one month. <br /> <br /> This alternative natural therapy without medication is something that she <br /> has experienced. <br /> <br /> So, why not give it a try ?Kc and Ykhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11047179989686299933noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3898131024011018705.post-51765088332466163742008-12-06T19:53:00.000-08:002008-12-06T20:25:37.779-08:00Gallstones Removal (6-day treatment)----- Original Message -----<br /><br />Sent: Tuesday, November 28, 2006 8:39 AM<br />Subject: Gallstones Removal (6-day treatment)</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Please note always consult your doctor first before any alternative treatment or remedy.</span></span><br /><br /><br />Date: Tue, 21 Nov 2006 12:54:36 +0800<br /><br />Dear All,</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><br />this is a useful piece of information that you may have received<br />before.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><br />This is true and it works. You can 'google' Dr Lai Chiu-Nan to find<br />out more about her and the feedbacks of this treatment.<br /><br />ps. as always, spread the good things</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal">Pictures first, explanation and procedure follows:</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><br />1. Liver<br />2. Common Bile Duct<br />3. Gallstones<br />4. Gallbladder<br /><br />REMOVING GALLSTONES NATURALLY<br />by Dr Lai Chiu-Nan<br /><br />It has worked for many. If it works for you please pass on the<br />good news. Chiu Nan is not charging for it, so we should make it free for<br />everyone. Your reward is when someone, through your word of mouth,<br />benefits from the regime. Gallstones may not be everyone's concern. But they<br />should be because we all have them. Moreover, gallstones may lead to cancer.<br />"Cancer is never the first illness,"<br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal">Chiu Nan points out. "Usually, <span style=""></span>there are a lot of other problems leading to cancer. In my research in <st1:country-region st="on"><st1:place st="on">China</st1:place></st1:country-region>, I came across some materials which say that people with cancer usually have stones. We all have gallstones. It's a matter of big or small, many or few. One of the symptoms of gallstones is bloated feeling 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."</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"> So if you think you have<br />gallstones, Chiu Nan offers the following method to remove them<br />naturally. The treatment is also good for those with a weak liver, because<br /><span style=""> </span>the liver and gallbladder are closely linked.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br />Regimen:<br />1. For the first five days, take four glasses of apple juice (green apples preferred)<br /><span style=""> </span><span style=""> </span>every<br /><span style=""> </span>day. Or eat four or five apples, whichever you prefer. Apple juice<br /><span style=""> </span><span style=""> </span>softens<br /><span style=""> </span>the gallstones. During the five days, eat normally.<br />2. On the sixth day, take no dinner.<br />3. At 6 PM, take a teaspoon of Epsom salt (magnesium sulphate)<br /><span style=""> </span>with a glass of warm water. (Drink slowly because of swallowing difficulties)<br />4. At 8 PM, repeat the same. Magnesium sulphate opens the<br /><span style=""> </span>gallbladder ducts.<br />5. At 10 PM, take half cup olive oil (or sesame oil) with half<br /><span style=""> </span><span style=""> </span>cup fresh lemon juice. Mix it well and drink it. The oil lubricates the<br /><span style=""> </span><span style=""> </span>stonesto ease their passage.<br /><!--[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]--><br /><!--[endif]--></p> <p class="MsoNormal">PS. 1cup=250ml, ½ cup lemon juice=3 lemons (aprox.)<br /><!--[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]--><br /><!--[endif]--></p> <p class="MsoNormal">The next morning, (bowel movement) you will find green stones in your stools.<br />Usually they float," Chiu Nan notes. "You might want to count them. I<br /><span style=""> </span>have had people who passes 40, 50 or up to 100 stones. Very many."<br />"Even if you don't have any symptoms of gallstones, you still<br /><span style=""> </span>might have some. It's always good to give your gall bladder a clean-up now<br />and then.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><br />PASS THIS AND YOU MAY HELP OTHERS!</p>Kc and

Don't do a single thing until I get there. I'm<br />calling<br />my brother back, and we'll both be there tomorrow. Until then ,<br />don't do<br />a thing, DO YOU HEAR??' and she hangs up.<br /><br />The old man hangs up his phone and turns to his wife. 'Okay', he<br />says,<br />'It's all set.
