Dear Nithya

Greetings!

Good one :):):):) Some information on Benefits of FRUITS

Benefits of Fruit

Fresh Fruits

Fresh fruit (or frozen fruit) is one of the richest sources of vitamins and some important minerals. To help prevent vitamin deficiency, the World Health organisation (WHO) recommends a minimum daily intake of five portions of fruit and vegetables. The most important micronutrient vitamin in fruit (especially citrus fruits) is the antioxidant vitamin C. In addition, fruit (eg. mango, cantaloupe, apricots, and red or pink grapefruit) may also contain useful amounts of vitamin A, as well as healthy phytochemicals like carotenoids and anthocyanosides. Fruit is also a rich source of dietary fiber. Oranges and orange juice also contain folate.
Juices

Fruit juice (eg. apple, blackberry, cranberry, grape, grapefruit, orange, pineapple juices) is a good source of vitamin C, although the high acidity levels and simple sugars in fruit juice can lead to an increased risk of tooth decay. Drinking fruit juice as part of a meal reduces this risk. "Freshly Squeezed" fruit juice is the only type of juice that can legitimately describe itself as "pure", because it has undergone no processing except the extraction of the fruit. Cranberry juice is especially beneficial for urinary tract infections.
Dried Fruits

Dried fruit (eg. apricots, dates, figs, raisins) is not a particularly good source of vitamins, except some B-vitamins, although it does provide minerals (eg. iron and potassium) and dietary fiber. Dried fruit is high in energy (calories) and fruit sugar, which makes it an excellent energy-boosting snack. Dried apricots contain beta-carotene. Figs contain benzaldehyde, an anti-cancer agent.
How Much Fruit To Eat in a 1600 Calorie Weight Loss Diet

The latest Dietary Guidelines (2005) recommend 3-4 servings of fruit per day. According to the suggested diet plans, one serving is equivalent to:

- 6 oz fruit juice
- 1 medium fruit
- 1/4 cup dried fruit
- 1/2 cup fresh, frozen, or canned fruit

To ensure adequate fiber intake, consumption of whole fruits (fresh, frozen, canned, dried) rather than fruit juice for the majority of the total daily amount is recommended.

Hi All,

Please find below something for your brain too ;-)

"Exercise Your Brain"

We all have little lapses in memory like leaving the keys in the door, forgetting someone's name or missing an appointment. Rarely do we think we are getting old or senile. Most times it's due to too much going on in that brain of yours. You have too much on your mind or you're stressed out. Maybe you didn't concentrate enough on what it was you were supposed to remember.

Research shows that brainpower can increase with mental activities in older people. Aging does not mean automatically losing mental capacity. The National Institute of Aging has conducted a series of tests that prove most dramatic memory decline occurs around age 70, if it occurs at all. Even though memory may fade with time, thinking ability remains strong. Vocabulary and reasoning skills often improve with age.

No matter what your age, exercising your brain may make the difference between using it and losing it. Or if you are young and have older family members or friends who seem to be losing memory, encouraging brain activity can help.

Activities such as doing crossword puzzles, playing word games or cards strengthens the synapses between brain cells in memory transmission areas. Physical exercise can increase mental abilities 20% to 30 %, according to recent studies. Journal writing and working with your hands to build or create can help as well.

For older adults who sense memory loss occurring, use mental helps such as calendars, calculators, list making, and group discussions. And relax. Worrying about what you're going to forget can cause a mental block.
