Home remedies have been treating numerous ailments of the human body for hundreds of years. There are hundreds of them at our disposal and they have grown more prevalent and common over the years. Medical documents, books, and journals have been written on the effectiveness of these home remedies, showing them to be a safe and inexpensive alternative to prescription drugs for minor ailments, with little to no side effects. They have been proven to be essential and very valuable for treating common everyday ailments and for helping to maintain a healthy body. The human body has amazing defenses and healing powers… when it is in balance. Poor diet, malnutrition, poor lifestyle, improper sleep, and a host of other poor choices can throw the body out of balance and ailments can occur. Although these factors are not necessarily the direct cause of sickness and disease, but they make the body less able to protect and heal itself, causing it to be a lot more susceptible to a host of different ailments. Then, if left untreated, the problem will progress. The remedy in and of itself isn’t what really cures you, but the remedy puts the body back in balance, which in turn, the body can protect and heal itself once again. Continue reading

More Tips for Weight Loss by B.Smith II
I have received a lot of questions for tips on how to lose weight and keep it off. I do have some tips for losing weight and it worked for me:
#1. Stay completely away from fast food, processed food, and any diet food and drinks. These foods not only contain a ridiculous amount of sodium (which cause water retention and weight gain), they also contain a ton of man-made chemicals not meant for human consumption and they produce a ton of side affects such as headaches, mood swings, water retention, weight gain, and will completely throw your body’s chemistry out of whack. (A lot of today’s health problems are caused by these chemicals in our food). Completely avoid anything that contains “ASPARTAME.” This is a chemical that is considered the “sweet poison.” Headaches, mood swings, and weight gain are just a few of its many, many, many side effects. (I had headaches almost everyday til I discovered this in Nutrition class. Now I seldom ever get a headache).
#2. Drink lots of water every day. Drink a glass of water before each and every meal. Not only will this help you feel full faster (therefore eating less) this will also help collect bad fats and flush them out of your system before they have a chance to be stored. Continue reading

If you want to lose some weight and keep it off without starving yourself and doing a lot of hours of vigorous exercising, then here is your solution. Green tea helps to lose weight and keep it off. I use the Liquid Soft-Gels Green Tea Fat Burner and drink the brewed green tea as well. (Now, you don’t have to drink the brewed green tea with the soft gels like I did, but it certainly helps). I had lost 20 pounds of fat using green tea. I do not have the “jiggle” on my sides anymore and I can finally see my abs.
I use the Liquid Soft-Gels Green Tea Fat Burner and drink the brewed green tea as well. I had lost 20 pounds of fat using green tea.

Frying with Water by B.Smith II
How to Fry With Water
This is what I do. This is a little tricky at first and may take many tries and some experimentation to get it perfect. It took me many tries to perfect it.
First, (lightly) spray a frying pan with cooking spray (optional). (I use Spartan brand extra virgin olive oil or coconut oil because there is no fat of any kind, calories, cholesterol, or sodium. They’re the healthiest I have found so far). Place the meat (Steak, pork steak, pork chops, etc) in the frying pan and turn it on high heat. Pour 8oz of water into the pan. Season the meat as you like and place a lid over the pan. (I use a large silver frying pan with a blue glass lid that is fairly tight to hold the heat and steam inside). Let it “boil” for about 3 to 5 minutes. (Honestly, I am not sure about the exact timing, because I have never timed it. I would just look at the meat and turn it over when it looks ready. I don’t know how else to put it into words). Remove the lid, flip the meat over, and replace the lid, for another 3 to 5 minutes. After this time remove the lid for good. (With the lid, the water evaporated but was quickly replaced right back to where it started from). Now without the lid the water will boil out. (Pay close attention to this… you don’t want to burn the future gravy this will make). After a few minutes the liquid, will start to thicken up. At this time, turn the heat down to medium. Take a flat steel or plastic spatula and press down on the meat. Let all the water evaporate and yes this will turn the bottom of your pan brown (but try not to burn it). (You may want to turn the heat up a little here). Flip the meat over a couple times to brown both sides of the meat like you normally would. Once the meat is to your liking, remove it and place it on a plate. Continue reading
