Vege Fritters



An easy way to trick your kids (if they are fussy) to eat veges. Chop them up and turn them into fritters!


Ingredients :

Eggs (beat eggs first, and mix the rest of the ingredients together - to get that fluffy fritters)
Flour
Milk
Water
Veges - any kind, really. in this case,  I used carrot & french beans (chopped)
Little bit of salt & sugar to taste (so that adults can enjoy the goodness too ^_^)

Method :

Combine all ingredients and FRY!


Combine . Fry . Bon appetit!


Congenital Nephrosis

A 2 MONTHS OLD boy was diagnosed with Congenital Nephrosis in 2000. Both kidneys were only 10% functional at that time. Urea & creatine levels were much higher than normal :

Urea level - 22.5mmol/l
Creatine level - 203.3mmol/l

Early symptoms :
1) very serious diarrhoea
2) frequent vomiting
3) poor appetite
4) weight loss
5) weak. sleep interrupted every 10mins

At this stage, doctor recommended DIALYSIS. 


The parents refused to proceed with doctor's recommendation. So the boy started consuming Shuang Hor's products in May 2000.

He started with :
18 Lingzhi, 36 Pollen, 4 Soy Protein & Luchun Tea

Early reactions after taking SH products : Constipation & very very stinky stool

Positive reactions after taking SH products :
1) diarrhoea & vomiting reduced
2) constipation improved
3) appetite improved
4) weight increased (3.7kg - 9kg)

In March 2001, he went for medical checkup, Urea & Creatine level were very much improved :

Urea level - 10.2mmol/l
Creatine level - 57mmol/l

Dosage was maintained with :
2 Lingzhi, 6 Pollen, 2 Soy Protein, Luchun Tea

**Note : Other than those mentioned above, early symptoms can be discovered by observing puffiness in certain parts of the body (face/feet/hands/tummy) due to kidney failure which cause water retention.

5 minutes meal

For those of you who have small children, have you ever had problems with your kids' appetite? Especially when they are >1 year old. Sometimes I too get worried but as long as she drinks water/milk, I know I should not be worrying much. The trick is to always try something new until she stops refusing. But this one particular menu, definitely won't make them turn around -- I know my baby won't! For busy moms, or when your kid suddenly woke up and demands food - FAST! This is something worth to try.

Ingredients :
Hang your bananas!

Oat - 2½ tablespoon
Water - just enough to cook the oat
Banana - 1 piece
Cheese - 1 slice






Method :



1) Bring oat & water to boil and stir frequently (to avoid it getting burnt). Because the water is not too much, ensure all the oats are immersed in water when boiling. This should take about 1-2 minutes.






2) While waiting for the oat to be ready, mash a piece of banana in a bowl. I like to mash it till smooth (not chunks) so that my baby can taste the banana in every spoon.




3) Once oat is thicken, remove from heat and immediately pour it into the mashed banana. Place a slice of cheese right on top of it and mix everything together with a spoon. Because the oat is still hot, the cheese would get soften and gradually melt easily making the porridge smooth and thick. And because the cheese was taken right from the chiller, this meal should get cool and safe to be eaten within 1-2 minutes. Of course, test a little on your lips (with your fingers, if you're fasting ^_^) to confirm, before feeding your little one.

Super quick and easy, yeah? You can substitute banana with half an apple, pear or any other fruits. But instead of mashing them, just dice them in small cubes and boil together with the oat. When my baby was much smaller, she enjoyed oat-egg-cheese. Same method.


I never expect her to finish her meal everytime. If there are leftovers, I usually keep it covered in case she still wants a little bit more within the next hour or so (before it turns bad, of course). If she doesn't, don't feel bad. Just wash them away & start thinking of her next meal. I'm guessing it would be macaroni & scramble eggs in a few more hours!

Shopping Raya?

Ramadhan is near and this year will mark the first time we're gonna enjoy our Ramadhan at our own place. Yerp, we've moved out from our very comfy lifestyle (yes, mom's place is always the most comfy ^_^), to a simple and petite home on this 7th floor. Very windy. Fast drying laundry everytime. I won't be complaining much. :) We have briefly planned how's our budget preparation ... of not going to spend too much on unnecessary expenses ... such as 'bazaar Ramadhan'. Well, home-cooked meal is always the best and we never fancy those rainbow-coloured drinks (or food). Maybe once in a while I would still be craving that putu bambu. Need to have it at least once a year. Nyumm.

We've also done our baju Raya shopping yesterday. Naema was being super behave even without a stroller/carrier ... till she fall asleep on my lap while we're eating Kyros Kebab. That's after about 3 hours of non-stop walking around in PKNS Shah Alam. And that gave me a good cramp on my feet because Mr Boss went to search for his baju Melayu for God knows how long! If you think shop for ladies' is difficult. Think again! But Alhamdulillah, at the end of the day, we managed to buy one pair each, with the same colour theme and I've got matching scarf too. Naema can wear her last year's baju Raya which has the same colour. Yeay.

But we still need to hit the tailor for the 3 big events this year. Projects are still on-going and now besides replying to my online customers' inquiries & orders, I now need to find new items to prepare the wedding preparation for dearest brother, brother in law and +Irna Izura

Haze is clear now, Alhamdulillah. Mom told me the rain during that haze left some green stain in the water. That's how hazardous the air was! Still, we need to drink plenty of water & always take care of our own health. Oh well, glad that we can now breath normally and hang laundry out to crispy-dry. Naema's nose has also cleared. No more green mucus coming out after each sneeze. Huhu. Pity little baby. Never complaint even when she's at her low point of health. Always play play play. That's how we should live our life. No complaints, just play!

Right? ;)

Jerebu

Indeks Pencemaran Udara harini tak banyak peningkatan dari pagi (198) hingga malam (196). In Puchong, we can still smell the smoky air, and vision is still very blur. Nak jemur baju serba salah. Kalau tak jemur, tak kering. Kalau jemur, bau asap. And for some of us yang takde cooking hood, kena pilih sama ada nak bukak tingkap bagi bau masakan keluar tapi jerebu masuk, or biar tingkap tutup, kasik satu rumah bau ikan kering. Yes. Decisions. 

Apa-apa pun, apelah yang mampu kita buat. Mengeluh? C'mon. There are many more world matters need to be solved. Jangan lupa ini semua salah satu ujian kecil. Nak tengok kita sebagai hamba Allah yang kerdil ni reti mensyukuri nikmat Allah tak. Janganlah asyik pandang pada jarak 2m yang kabur tu. Pandanglah pada perkara2 yang jelas depan mata. 

Dari aspek lain yang mampu kite buat, minum air masak as much as possible. 1 gelas every hour, ade berani? Paling2 pun keluar masuk toilet 18 kali sehari. I guarantee nothing worse could happen with that amount of liquid in and out of your body. It's all about flushing those hazardous chemicals from our system and ape lagi agen pembersih yang senang nak dapat & gerenti berkesan (insyaAllah)? -- AIR

Stay indoor sekerap yang boleh. Dan kalau perlu keluar pun, please put your facemasks on. Sangat tak cool keluar rumah dengan makeup tebal sambil hirup bau asap, ok! 


Nak pakai facemask ni pun boleh. Tapi bukan outdoor la yer. Kalau tak, melekat la segala habuk jerebu tu celah2 timun & claymask tu.

Ha ni contoh terbaik oleh pasangan pengantin. Kahwin, kahwin jugak. Kesihatan kena jaga. Yerlah, lepas ni nak pergi honeymoon, takot demam pulak.

Tapi kalau sesape yang isap rokok tu, tak payahla nak mengada2 pakai mask. Musim jerebu ni, sedut asap rokok lebih sikit sebab at least, kat tempat penyedut tu ade 'filter'.

Uhuk uhuk.

Baby batuk & selesema

Was having a normal conversation with my cousin last week, on WhatsApp. She mentioned about her 9-months-old baby girl, just recovered from regular fever. Below is our conversation :

"...demam nak tumbuh gigi kot. Masa hari pertama demam lap kain je. Masa tu tak terpikir nak bagi Nutritab. Pastu gi klinik sebab dah 39°C, takut kena sawan. Tapi takdelah sampai bagi ubat punggung tu. Cuba bagi ubat klinik dalam 2ml. Sekali je bagi pastu tak bagi dah. Esoknya demam dah surut. Tinggal selsema + batuk + kahak. Baru teringat kat Nutritab. Try blend sekali dengan bubur dia. 2 hari bagi. Masa tu tak sempat nak tanya Aiya lagi, dah panik. Huhu, boleh kan bagi Nutritab kat baby?"
"Pastu dia asyik kentut² je macam sakit perut pulak. Semalam tak berak, tapi selesema macam dah kurang."

"...Nutritab boleh bagi kat baby. Kentut² tu bagus. Kalau tak kentut, baru dia kembung perut. Mungkin reaction...sebab tu dia tak berak / kentut banyak awal² makan Nutritab. Elok teruskan aje"

"Kentut busukkk sangat pulak tu. Banyak kali cek pampers dia ingatkan berak. Tak berak jugak. Haha. Nanti kang makan tengah hari blend lagi. Tapi dia makan lambat je. Tak sedap sikit, haha. Harap² lah harini dia berak, nanti kang ayah dia bising² pulak bagi bukan² tapi tak berak². Tak sabar nak tunggu dia berak ni. Huhuhu..."

"Kentut busuk sebab dia tak berak kan? So lagi kena suruh dia kentut. Kalau tak, gas busuk tu dok dalam badan. Lagipun, memang awal² orang makan lingzhi, kentut & berak busuk sangat! Sebab dalam perut , yang kotor² tu nak keluar. Bagus tau!" 
**Ada kes, cancer patient dalam ICU, lepas makan lingzhi, berak busuk sangat sampai nurses kena spray air-freshener 1 wad!**
"Kalau dari kecik dah bersih, insya Allah lebih senang nak jaga nanti. Naema dulu masa awal² makan lingzhi, dia berak macam ada black pepper. Bintik² hitam keluar. "
"Just bagi air & susu banyak"

"Ni first time try bagi Nutritab sebab tak confident nak bagi ubat klinik. Ubat tu untuk turunkan suhu je. Bukan baikkan dia. Lagipun, dia dah 5 bulan tak pernah demam. So tak standby apa² untuk dia. Last demam umur 3 bulan. Sekarang dah 9 bulan..."

"...biasalah tu demam nak tumbuh gigi. Takpe, kalau demam lagi, letak tuala basah kat kepala sentiasa bagi temperature tak panas sangat. "
"Lagipun, kalau temperature naik, maknanya badan tengah bina antibodi (senjata) nak lawan virus (musuh). So bagus tau. Tapi nak kena jaga jangan bagi panas sangat. Letak towel basah. Bagi minum air"

And so, that was the earlier conversation with her. Sorry, there were a lot mentioning about the b-word & k-word... tapi itulah hakikatnya. Nak monitor kesihatan badan, mesti check ... you know the words - kentut & berak**Err, excuse me. Ehem** And a day after, she texted :

"Salam. Nak citer. Malam tadi kul 8 Hana berak. Bau dia ... masya Allah. Nak pengsan! Haha. Selama ni best je blend bubur dia dengan Nutritab tapi tak rasa. Tadi try, pahitnya! Patutla terkulat2 dia makan. Huhu Alhamdulillah, selesema dah kurang sikit tapi masih ada lagi. Hidung masih tersumbat lagi. Insya Allah akan bagi dia makan Nutritab sampai dah tak selesema. Amin"

"W'salam warahmatullah. Alhamdulillah... Haa kan dah cakap! Hihihi. Good². Berak hitam ke? Biar ajar die makan pahit² nanti esok² senang nak bagi lagi. ^_^"

"Tak hitam. Kuning pekat"

On 13th June 2013, she texted again :

"Salam. Aiya...hari ke-7 makan Nutritab barulah Hana berak kaler hitam. Sebelum² ni kuning macam biasa. Sehari makan sebijik Nutritab. Batuk selesema masih ada lagi, tapi makin berkurangan :)"

Alhamdulillah. The moment she mentioned about 'berak hitam' (or should I call it 'black-berry' from now on :D ), lega rasanya. Memang seronok dengar orang dapat keluarkan kotoran yang dah mula bertepek dalam badan. And I just felt like, Superman saves another day. ^_^

Baby Hana, another 'Lingzhi baby' <3
Sorry, but if you feel disgusted reading the above story, you better scrape off all the dirts in your body now. If you haven't got the 'blackberries' in that toilet bowl. Trust me, they are still in you. Ewwww!

Naema : An Eczema survivor story

When my baby was 6 months old, she suffered from eczema-like symptoms. A doctor-friend diagnosed her as having skin infections on eczema. Her body temperature raised up in the first few days while she's battling with the skin irritations. This happened about a year ago, something that I've post-poned to share for too long. ^_^ Here are some of the evidences to say it all ...

22/02/2012 - Day 01
Red spots appeared on both arms in the morning. Fed her Yung Kien Lingzhi (Half capsule / day) and Soy Protein.
23/02/2012 - Day 02
More red spots on both arms and legs. Near to the joints - elbows & knees.
Also some red spots appeared on her neck-chest area.
She had rice & carrot for breakfast. By noon - vomited EVERYTHING. By evening, temperature starts to rise to 37.8C
Red spots also appeared on her bottom. Applied VCare Body Lotion on the bottom and Greenzhi for the rest of her body. Spots became more intense red. By this time, Naema refused to eat and breastfeed. Had to force-BF her. Still on Yung Kien Lingzhi (Half capsule / day)
24/02/2012 - Day 03
No more increase of the red spots and they have started to dry. Still taking Yung Kien Lingzhi, Greenzhi on the spots (very good to dry out wounds faster)
29/02/2012 - Day 08
Red spots have completely dried. Dried skins are peeling off. Applied VCare Body Lotion to  enhance recovery. 
01/03/2012 - Day 09
Most dried skins have peeled off (naturally and while slowly scrubbing during bath)
05/03/2012 - Day 13
Alhamdulillah. Fully recovered. :)
Of course, this happened in 2012. And now, she's healthier than before. Kindly note that during the whole process, she only rely on her own body immune system to recover and no drugs / steroid creams were prescribed. She only took Yung Kien Lingzhi, Pollen and Jia Hor Soy Protein. And on the skin, I bathe her with VCare Showergel and applied Greenzhi and VCare Body Lotion until the whole body is totally recovered. Up till now, I apply Body Lotion everytime after her bath with VCare Showergel. I put on Greenzhi once in a while if she got some insect bites. 

:)

Money, time and health

Often I've been asked, how many capsules of Lingzhi to consume per day? And when I started with  :

"You should take 12 caps/day for a start...."

most people would be like, "Woahhhh.... that's AH-LOT!"

Truth is, if you have not been eating any junk/fast food for your entire life, you won't be needing as much to cleanse your body. Imagine you have a 'filter' (read : liver) that has not been cleansed for (your age) years after you've been taking those roti canai, teh tarik, Kaw Kaw Burger Bakar, gula-gula hantu, Super Ring, Choki Choki, etc. After putting all those junks in our body for many many years, we cannot expect 1 bottle of Lingzhi will do wonders in just a month. 

To most people, we might think it's difficult to stay healthy. 

"Have to consume 12 Lingzhi per day first, to cleanse. 20 Lingzhi per day to totally cleanse. Must drink plenty (3L/day) of water. Must eat good food. Lots of veges and fruits. Walauweh. So expensive la ... Olive oil, organic plants, Lingzhi! Not cheap wooo! Where got MONEY."

"Must take Lingzhi first thing in the morning and last thing before going to bed? Everyday? Have to cook own meal? Hiyah, I'm busy la.  No TIME to do all these. Order food on delivery is faster"

"Hiyoh, so many things to do to stay HEALTHY. This month I need to send my car for service. And my kids have school fees to pay. Next month we want to buy kitchen cabinet. The following month, there's a family vacation. Wait until I'm totally ready only can cleanse my body lorr. Maybe wait for my next bonus?" 

Here's the deal :

"For cancer patients ... they consume 1-4 bottles of Lingzhi PER DAY. Do you think they can afford to go to work at that time? Probably no. So no income? What about the daily expenses, on top of the cancer treatments? Maybe they have insurance policy to cover that for them. But really? You don't mind falling critically ill as long as you don't have to pay a single cent for the medical treatment? At this point, they'll lose it all. They lose MONEY, TIME and HEALTH".

Yes, if you think being healthy is expensive. Try to fall sick. 

Be greatful and always syukur for our good health. It is our responsibility to keep it that way. I am blessed to have recovered from Asthma which I had since I was small. Alhamdulillah, I haven't got any attack since 2008. They say it's genetic. Nothing can be done. Well, it's proven that it can go away. Only if you let yourself to be treated. In the natural way. Insya Allah.
