Drinking milk will not prevent osteoporosis (brittle bones).
People will always seem not convinced when I mention this to them. After all, most of us grow up drinking formula milk believing that it gives us protein and calcium, and ‘nothing has been wrong’!
With advancement in technology, more Research has been done and whether you believe or not, yes, milk does not prevent osteoporosis and in contrary, it gives rise to osteoporosis! So stop believing in advertisements by milk companies that drinking milk can prevent brittle bones….! The elderly who consume milk every day thinking that it will help them build stronger bones will be misled and not take the right measures.
The American Journal of Public Health published a 12-year study involving over 70,000 participants that indicated women who drank two or more glasses of milk per day faced higher risks of hip and forearm fractures when compared with women consuming one glass or less per week.
Statistics from many countries also show that a lower intake of animal products is linked to a lower rate of osteoporosis. On the other hand, countries with a high intake of animal-based foods, such as the U.K and U.S., have high rates of osteoporosis.

ABM and Maitake Mushrooms are rich in easily absorbed iron. Ideal for anemic sufferers too. They also have in them polysaccharides that can strengthen our immune system. The combi of Acerola cherry and blueberry, both rich in vitamin C, work in synergy in promoting absorption of iron.
A friend whose mother has high blood pressure and has been trying to bring it down by eating simple. But seems that it has not been easy. Her last check-up shows that her blood pressure it is still on the high side. Finally she is willing to consume O-seed that my friend bought for her. Good news from my friend that her mom no longer feels as giddy after consuming for about one month. That’s a good news for a start!
It is as simple as to consume lots of varieties of fruits! Each fruit contains the precious antioxidants; and as the name implies, ‘against oxidation’. We need antioxidants to help us fight against oxidation, both from external and internal factors.
A fruit that contains a higher and stronger amount of antioxidants, is definitely much preferred to a fruit that contains a lower amount of antioxidants, for anti-aging purpose.
Plant foods such as rose, cactus, grape seed, seaweed, cactus fruit, ginseng berry, are undeniably foods that have exceptionally high antioxidants! Conveniently, you can find them in the product Oxyginberry Beverage; with all the six holistic foods in each packet.
The thing about consuming plant foods that are rich in high antioxidants – it also enhances our body’s production of COLLAGEN! This is definitely not something that you can get from fish collagen, vitamin E pills or hydrolyzed collagen peptides.
Oxyginberry Essence not only can hydrate and tone our face, it can also strengthen and lengthen our eyelashes!
Just pat the essence onto your closed eyes; especially so, if your eye lashes keep falling off or if you are constantly using eye lashes extension. Just nourish your eye lashes often! cheers
I was watching the television on Talking Point a few days back. The topic caught my attention – ‘Am I at Risk of Dementia‘. It was said in 2015 that 1 in 10 Singaporeans over 60 have dementia. In 2012, about 28,000 people in Singapore aged 60 and older had dementia. And this number is expected to soar to 80,000 by 2030.
As defined in ADA (Alzheimer’s Disease Association) website:
Dementia is an illness which affects the brain, causing the brain cells to die at a faster rate than normal. It is not normal ageing. As a result, the mental abilities of the person with dementia declines. This leads to failing memory, deterioration of intellectual function and personality changes.
What further disturbs was the mention that more and more younger people are diagnosed with dementia and, as early as at 40; the prime of their life and careers.
Prevention seems the only solution.
The Nerve Growth Factor
Our brain and nervous system depend on a vital protein called the NGF (Nerve Growth Factor) for normal development. NGF supports the health of growing and existing neurons. Our body produces NGF naturally, but age, illness, medications and environment can affect the level of our NGF.
Healthy Brain Foods
Examples of foods that allow our body to produce more NGF are Lion’s Mane Mushrooms (Hericium erinaceus)Ji-Lin Ginseng (Panax ginseng) and Ashitaba (Angelica keiskei Koidzumi).
Lion’s Mane Mushroom can influence the production of enzymes that signal cells to release more NGF.
Ji-Lin Ginseng contains ginseng saponins that are found to maintain cell viability in the hippocampus, a memory-making part of the brain. Thus it supports healthy learning and memory. It also contains ginsenoside Rg1 that supports healthy neurons, cognition, and internal signaling, which supports the creation of proteins vital to the health of the brain.
Ashitaba supports healthy levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) which belongs to the same group of nerve cell proteins as NGF. BDNF is particularly vital to the hippocampus, and its ability to create persistent, long-term memories. Ashitaba also contains chalcone which supports the production of multiple neurotrophic factors, which are proteins that support neurons.
E-memories actually contains all the mentioned ingredients in concentrated form! That’s so nice! It can also be consumed by the young at school to enhance their learning, for the working adults to be more effective in ‘retrieving their memories’, and last but not least, the elderly to prevent declining of memory.
The Elemente skincare products were applied only on the right side of her face. Look at her right and her left cheeks. Note any difference?
Yes! The obvious firming and uplifting effect on her right face! In barely 10 minutes into the application, a bigger eye is noted! Her right eye no longer droops as much as her left eye! Fantastic products!
