[www.keralites.net] Beetroot as anti cancer Diet

Beetroot as anti-cancer diet

Ever heard of a food item that promises health and exhibits an exciting play of flavour and colour on our plates? We speak of a humble vegetable that boasts of its unparalleled taste, irresistible ruby-red colour and is loaded with nutrients. Beetroot is much more than just a vegetable, it easily fits into your culinary adventures and when added to preparations, it brings alive even the most mundane affairs.

Bundled with health benefits

The Radiant beetroot has been identified as a superfood due to its immense nutritional value. According to health experts, regular consumption of beetroot can benefit our health in a multiple ways. It's low in calories (45 calories per 100 gm.) and has almost negligible fat content. Not only this, it helps reduce blood pressure and aids in the production of red blood cells. Beetroot is an excellent source of iron and is great for maintaining healthy hemoglobin levels. It has anti-ageing properties and assists in maintaining glowing skin and lustrous hair. It is also believed to inhibit cancer cell mutation, prevent DNA damage, boost metabolism and strengthen the digestive system.
How to Buy
While buying beetroot, go for small and firm ones with a dark ruby blush. The vegetable should have an unblemished surface with bright hued leaves and an intact taproot. Avoid hairy taproots as they are indicative of the veggie being old and tough. To ensure freshness, buy the ones that are attached to their leaf stems. Since its leaves are also edible, they can be used in a variety of recipes.
How to store
Store it in a cool and dry place, ideally refrigerated for 7-10 days. For an enduring storage, the leaves need to be cut 2 inches from the root.
Tip: To ensure that the nutrients and colour of the beetroot remain intact, do not remove its skin before boiling it. Once cooked, rub off the skin under cold running water.
So, what are you waiting for? You now have enough reasons to be munching on this ruby delight. Chomp and toss it in garden fresh salads or make a wholesome, filling beetroot soup; from curries, sandwiches, to dips, chutneys and even desserts - beetroot is fairly versatile, you may cook it as you please.

[www.keralites.net] Child - A Golden Gift

CHILD - A GOLDEN GIFT
Some time ago, a friend of mine punished his 3-year old daughter for wasting a roll of gold wrapping paper. Money was tight, and he became infuriated when the child tried to decorate a box to put under the tree.
Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift to her father the next morning and said, "This is for you, Daddy." He was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction, but his anger flared again when he found that the box was empty. He yelled at her, "Don't you know when you give someone a present, there's supposed to be something inside of it?"
The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and said, "Oh, Daddy, it;s not empty. I blew kisses into the box. All for you, Daddy."
The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little girl, and begged for forgiveness. My friend told me that he kept that old box by his bed for years. Whenever he was discouraged, he would take out an imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there.
In a very real sense, each of us as parents has been given a gold container filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children. There is no more precious possession anyone could hold.

[www.keralites.net] Inspired by a Greek Gadget, This Water Device Can Transform Drought-Hit Maharashtra.-Neer Chakra

Inspired by a Greek Gadget, This Water Device Can Transform Drought-Hit Maharashtra - NeerChakra

Among the 10-odd women is Shilpa, a young woman who recently had a miscarriage.

Shilpa has always found it difficult to carry the heavy pots of water, and balancing them—one on the head and one supported by her arm on the waist—is no easy task. The daily chore has left her with an aching back.

Today, however, she is towing along an unusual device—a water pail on four wheels. It sounds and looks simple, but is going to be of great help women like her who have to fetch water from the river every day.

The device, NeerChakra, is the brainchild of Tanveer Inamdar and Resham Sethi.

Tanveer collaborated with 28-year-old Resham, a Research Student at the Brandeis University, USA, to chalk out a solution and the result was NeerChakra, a water transportation device.

The device has been inspired by the Gimbal Ink Pot, a Greek invention. A gimbal is a pivoted support that lets an object (like the ink pot or a pail of water) rotate on a single axis..

The NeerChakra is equipped with four wheels, a braking system, a battery set, and a power generator, in addition to a gyroscopic stabiliser, which absorbs the shock to the pail and minimises water spillage.

"The wheel is a basic, yet, widely-used invention, so we wondered if it could be put to use to help women in drought-hit areas. We created the NeerChakra about six months ago to help these women, and when we experimented on the ground, we observed that it reduced a lot of their efforts!"

The 80-100 litre device is made of metal and plastic.

The container in the middle is placed in a manner that protects it from outer influences like bumpy roads.

"We ask the women to carry a small container of water along with them. They can use this container to fill water in the NeerChakra, and have three options to empty out the device when they are home. They can use a smaller container, like a glass, if they require a small quantity of water. They can also use the tap attached to the device to pour out water. The device is completely detachable so if they need to use all the water in the device, they can dismantle it completely."

They asked about 72 women to try out the NeerChakra. The feedback was unanimous—the device saves 80% of their time and between 70-80% of their efforts every day.

You can contact them by sending an email to teamtree8888@gmail.com.

[www.keralites.net] When I started Loving Myself

WHEN I STARTED LOVING MYSELF
CHARLIE CHAPLIN - When I started Loving Myself....
When I started loving myself
I understood that I'm always and at any given opportunity
in the right place at the right time.
And I understood that all that happens is right –
from then on I could be calm.
Today I know: It's called TRUST.
When I started to love myself I understood how much it can offend somebody
When I tried to force my desires on this person,
even though I knew the time is not right and the person was not ready for it,
and even though this person was me.
Today I know: It's called LETTING GO
When I started loving myself
I could recognize that emotional pain and grief
are just warnings for me to not live against my own truth.
Today I know: It's called AUTHENTICALLY BEING.
When I started loving myself
I stopped longing for another life
and could see that everything around me was a request to grow.
Today I know: It's called MATURITY.
When I started loving myself
I stopped depriving myself of my free time
and stopped sketching further magnificent projects for the future.
Today I only do what's fun and joy for me,
what I love and what makes my heart laugh,
in my own way and in my tempo.
Today I know: it's called HONESTY.
When I started loving myself
I escaped from all what wasn't healthy for me,
from dishes, people, things, situations
and from everyhting pulling me down and away from myself.
In the beginning I called it the "healthy egoism",
but today I know: it's called SELF-LOVE.
When I started loving myself
I stopped wanting to be always right
thus I've been less wrong.
Today I've recognized: it's called HUMBLENESS.
When I started loving myself
I refused to live further in the past
and worry about my future.
Now I live only at this moment where EVERYTHING takes place,
like this I live every day and I call it CONSCIOUSNESS.
When I started loving myself
I recognized, that my thinking
can make me miserable and sick.
When I requested for my heart forces,
my mind got an important partner.
Today I call this connection HEART WISDOM.
We do not need to fear further discussions,
conflicts and problems with ourselves and others
since even stars sometimes bang on each other
and create new worlds.
Today I know: THIS IS LIFE!
- Thanks,
M.D.HEGDE MANGALORE
