Fake common Home food / remedies:

Fake common Home food / remedies:

1. Grains: whole grains play an important role in lowering the risk of chronic diseases, such as coronary heart disease, diabetes, and cancer, and also contribute to body weight management and gastrointestinal health

But, Grains contain Phytic Acid, a mineral blocker that prevents absorption of calcium, magnesium, iron, copper and zinc.  Gluten (found in wheat) is a sticky, water soluble protein that is found in your favorite grains (wheat, rye, barley, etc). Gluten and similar grain-based proteins work to break down the microvilli in your small intestine, eventually letting particles of your food leech into your blood stream, causing allergies, digestive disturbances or autoimmune problems.

2. Milk is considered, the complete food, and has a good amount of calcium, good for healthy bones and teeth and Glowing Skin

But the most common problem is lactose intolerance, (the sugar found in milk). A deficiency in lactase, the enzyme responsible in the body’s ability to digest lactose in all dairy products and results in an intolerance to milk. It can slow down the metabolism and also leads to lot of stomach problems.

3. Increase sugar consumption glucose straight to the blood, causing insulin levels to increase while you experience a quick burst of energy, if lack of energy level.

But eating excess sugar causes calcium loss from body leading bone decay. Sugar is an acidic food and increases acidity in blood leading to problems related to acidity.

4. Salt helps you to build up a strong immune system so that you can fight off the cold virus, the fever and flu, allergies and other autoimmune disorders.

But excess of Salt interferes with the elimination of certain wastes of the system like Uric Acid and therefore contributes indirectly to various diseases like Gout etc.

5. Raw Vegetables: Consuming raw vegetables as part of a balanced diet can provide your body with fiber, vitamins and minerals.

Your body needs nutrients from vegetables to survive, but some adverse side effects may occur from consuming raw vegetables. Some vegetables are high in acid and may cause heartburn, or acid reflux.

6. Papayas help in removing water retention problem as they are excellent source of vitamin C and potassium and also High in folate and beta carotene. Papaya seems safe for most people when taken in small amounts.

Don’t eat papaya in large amounts. It could damage the esophagus, (the food tube in the throat). Applying papaya to the skin can cause severe irritation and allergic reactions in some people.
