Fight Premature Aging with Natural Sugar

August 24th, 2010

FOS (fructooligosaccharides) is not just a natural noncaloric low-glycemic sweetener…..

FOS is a naturally sweet, indigestible sugar derived from chicory roots.

It is one of the most powerful prebiotics.

Infact, it is one of the best documented natural nutrients for improving the healthy balance of bacteria in the intestines.

FOS also helps stimulate the growth of beneficial bifidobacteria (friendly flora) in the colon.

More facts on FOS:

  • a 1997 study showed that a 5% FOS diet substantially increased magnesium and calcium absorption
  • FOS raises magnesium absorption by over 75% after 10-13 days on 5% FOS diet
  • FOS raises calcium absorption by over 20% after 10-13 days on 5% FOS diet
  • FOS improves liver health – a 10% diet of FOS lowers blood glucose and insulin levels
  • FOS is 40-60% as sweet as sugar
  • You would have to consumer 13 bananas, 16 tomatoes or 16 onions  to obtain 1/4 tsp of FOS in your diet
  • chicory roots have the highest amount of FOS of any plant
  • FOS is commercially derived from water extraction of the chicory root

  • longevity tea
  • Tarahumars did the same

Frankincense Toothpaste?

August 2nd, 2010

Cancer, arthritis and periodontal disease are relatively unknown in Oman
and Yemen because the population has access to luban (frankincense resin), which
is chewed like gum. They also soak 4 or 5 pieces of this resin in water
overnight and drink the water.

They don’t even have a cancer ward in the hospital in Oman, because so few
people there have cancer.

Chewing Frankincense resin also makes the teeth strong.
