Just Another Day

It’s difficult to think about anything else if we don’t have our health. In fact, it is unequivocally the pre-requisite to conducting every other facet of our life in a productive way. This basic guide then is dedicated to the cause of igniting in us even the smallest spark towards a healthier life. Still, no one would like to give up the pleasure of eating. So, just what does a “sufficient, varied, tasty and nutritionally balanced” diet mean? Well, foods that are low in blood and serum cholesterol, as well as in saturated fats are the basics of healthy food and eating. Moderate consumption of meat, salt, sugar and other carbohydrates are the simplest answer to such question. And another trick, savor our food and eat slowly to avoid over eating.

There are different kinds of love. And yet, for each kind of love, there are different ways to express such feeling of being in love. For a platonic kind of love, where two people felt being complete when they are with each other despite their imperfection, expression of love through “physical touch” plays a very vital role in making the relationship last. However, as adults, we must be mature enough to understand that touch is more than sexual. We must not make the mistake of believing that the touch that brings pleasure to you will also bring pleasure to your partner. And also, a siple gesture of holding your partners’ hand, tapping the shoulders and hugging may also be a good expression of love that your significant other would surely appreciate.

It was in the early 1970’s when a restless beach bum whom everyone simply called “Joel” decided for himself that life in the corporate world was definitely not for him. His complete name is Joel Magsaysay and he’s now known as the Bee-Man of Silang. It took him a special kind of determination to leave the comfort of a steady job and a promising future to pursue his dream. After leaving the corporate world, he learned that taking nhoney was a great direct source of energy for the physically taxing sport. Then, he started to explore life among farmers and rural folk and, in the process learned just what it takes to live that type of life. I can’t forget when he said: “The bee sting is a cocktail of protiens-one hurts, one lets your blood flow freely, and the rest encourages your immune system to work.”

In the early days, the name Corn was used by the United States and Canada for any grain but eventually, the term evolved to designate a particular grain, one known on other parts of the world from which it had its earliest beginning– maize. Corn is used as cornmeal. Cornmeal, which made of corn flour, plays a vital role in the staple diets of many countries around the world. It even replaces wheat in some countries to make bread as aa main ingredient. Examples are Mexican tortillas, atole and other dishes. But beyond the corn’s superior taste is the fact that it is packed full of vitamins and minerals. An ear of corn contains protein, vitamin A, thiamine, niacine, folate, vitamin C, iron, magnesium, potassium, carbohydrates, natural sugar and dietary fiber.
