helpful in cases of anaemia and good source of
potassium.
PINEAPPLE: contains a proteolytic enzyme bromelain,
which helps in the digestion of protein.
AVOCADO: often on the hate-list of those people
who want to lose weight, but avocado should be
every woman's best friend. They are rich in vitamin
E which is said to be a beauty vitamin because
it is valuable for healthy skin and the prevention
of wrinkles. Avocadoes also supply a considerable
amount of potassium and large quantities
of the extremely healthy monounsaturated
fats. These, especially the oleic acid and the
other nutrients avocado contain, make them one
of the most powerful antioxidant foods. Pureed
avocado is good for invalids, sick children and
those people who are recovering from operation
as it is easily digestible and contains some antibacterial
and antifungal chemicals.
All fruit is good for people with who have high
blood pressure because they are low in salt. A
series of studies published by the Archives of
Ophthalmology have proven that consuming 3 or
more servings of fruit per day can reduce by 36%
the risk of developing an eye-related disease
called ARMD (the primary cause of vision impairment
in adults), if compared to people who only
consume 1.5 servings of fruit per day.

Four Worms and a
Lesson to be learned
A minister decided that a
visual demonstration would add emphasis to his
Sunday sermon.
Four worms were placed into four separate jars..
The first worm was put into a container of alcohol.
The second worm was put into a container
of cigarette smoke.
The third worm was put into a container of
chocolate syrup.
The fourth worm was put into a container of good
clean soil.
At the conclusion of the sermon, the Minister reported
the following results:
The first worm in alcohol - Dead.
The second worm in cigarette smoke - Dead
The Third worm in chocolate syrup -Dead
Fourth worm in good clean soil -Alive.
So the Minister asked the congregation
What did you learn from this demonstration?
Maxine was sitting in the back,
quickly raised her hand and said,
'As long as you drink, smoke and eat chocolate,
you won't have worms!'
