Get healthy!

watermelon smoothie:

 mint , thats the amout that i use.

watermelon, mint, almond milk, 1 banana

 black strap molasses
get the unsulphured.

got this from BMS Organic.

You'll find significant amounts of calcium, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, potassium and selenium in blackstrap molasses. WHFood

they claim that blackstrap molasses can also give you black hair!
i need to revert my few strands of white mane to black!

you can either take 1 tsb per day directly, or dilute in warm water.
some people add it into their coffee.

i started with diluting in a cup of water and KJ says mommy, see! i showed him and he goes No, i dont want, i dont want this. not good. he has not even tasted it.
sigh.
It's yummy! i like it! and cringed when he is not looking.
now i am taking it neat, i reckon it is more palatable this way.


A few interesting articles:


another must have is the apple cider vinegar. BRAGGS brand preferable, because it is raw.
u will see dirt and slime below the bottle but that is what we want, they are the goodness.

i use filtered acv (apple cider vinegar) to wash my hair though.
you'll see a bottle in my bathroom, i use it to rinse my hair after shampooing, if i have time.
acv acts as a conditioner. and also other lots of other goodness to our hair.
have been using it since pre-uni days.


 three aust avocados for RM 20!
how extravagant huh?

hubs brought them to be weighed and he asked me to guess the price.
and he says he aint eating them.
-_________-''

why do we wanna buy imported stuff when we can get local avocado?
only in sabah people!
dont be envy :p

see how beautiful our local avocados are?
the 2 green ones at the bottom are the locals whereas the top black one is from Australia.
compare the sizes.
local ones are WAYYY cheaper and bigger!

 smoothies for today:
beetroot, half lemon, potato leaves

this is how fresh beetroot looks like

whole beetroot

ive never seen this in the west (Msia).
however you can easily find them everywhere here.
i added in half avocado hence the smoothness.

bananas can do that too.
