Because Life is Too Short

 15 kebaikan buah naga


High concentration of Vitamin C
Vitamin C is very important because it improves our immune system. If you want to heal any open wound quickly, regular Vitamin C intake is highly recommended. Vitamin C from dragon fruit is also easier to absorb than Vitamin C from pill supplements. I’m sure a lot of you will agree with me that it’s more fun to get your daily Vitamin C intake by eating dragon fruit rather than taking pill supplements.
It is also better to eat dried dragon fruit than fresh dragon fruit as studies have shown that the former contains 10x the Vitamin C content compared to the latter. Almost 50% of the recommended daily Vitamin C intake is covered just by eating 100g of dried dragon fruit.

Vitamin B1 (Thiamine)
With the Vitamin B1 content in dragon fruit, this helps our bodies generate a lot more energy and metabolizes carbohydrates.

Vitamin B3 (Niacin)
A low cholesterol diet is important for diabetic patients. In this regard, dragon fruit is ideal to eat because it is low in cholesterol. Moreover, those fats which produce cholesterol is relatively non-existent.
Vitamin B3 can also enhance our skin’s appearance by moisturizing it. We all want our skin to be as smooth as a baby’s don’t we?

Vitamin B12
Dragon fruit is a natural appetite stimulant because it contains Vitamin B12. This is great for anyone who has just recovered from an illness and has lost his/her appetite.

High fiber content
Dragon fruit has a high dietary fiber content. With fresh dragon fruit, you can get up to 1g of fiber for every 100g of the fruit. On the other hand, for every 100g of dried dragon fruit, you can get 10g of fiber. The skin of the dragon fruit is also rich in fiber. If it is in good condition (no molds, black spots, and smells fresh), try eating that as well. This is ideal for those people suffering from constipation or irregular bowel movements. Moreover, it also benefits our liver by preventing urinary tract infection (UTI).
The red dragon fruit variety has a higher fiber content than the yellow variety.

High mineral content
Dragon fruit is a great source of phosphorus and calcium. These minerals are responsible for reinforcing our bones, making our teeth healthier, and having great body cells development. Tissue formation is also promoted by phosphorus.
The yellow dragon fruit variety has higher mineral content than the red variety.

Rich in antioxidants
Dragon fruit is an excellent source of natural antioxidants which aid in blocking free radicals which cause cancer and other health-related issues. Antioxidants found in natural food will always be better than taking doses from pill supplements.

Helps in controlling glucose levels
This is especially true for type II diabetics.
If you are type 1 diabetic patient who uses insulin, studies show that by eating dragon fruit, you can reduce your insulin intake.

Reduces the risk of high blood pressure
Eating dragon fruit can normalize your body’s hypertension levels. This is good news for people who are prone to having strokes.

Neutralizes toxic substances in the body
The effects of toxic substances, such as heavy metals, are greatly reduced. Some heavy metals like copper and zinc are good for the body but only in trace amounts. If these accumulate and reach a dangerously high level, these can cause serious illness. Mercury, lead, and arsenic definitely have no health benefits.

Improves eyesight
Dragon fruit contains carotene which helps in maintaining and equally improving our eyesight. This is good news for people who dislike eating carrots.

Reduces weight
Once again, by regularly eating dragon fruit, we can cut down on our weight significantly and build a well-balanced body.

Alleviates chronic respiratory tract ailments
Cough and asthma are very common respiratory ailments among children and adults alike. Regular consumption of dragon fruit helps in alleviating these ailments.

High Protein Content
Having high protein content can boost our metabolism. This also leads to reduction in weight.
Protein is also a vital ingredient in producing hormones, enzymes and chemicals in the body.

Low fat content
There are so many small black seeds in the edible part of the dragon fruit. These seeds contain a small amount of fats but most of these are unsaturated fats. The unsaturated fats are responsible for increasing the levels of good cholesterol and removing bad cholesterol from our bodies

 sebelum i merapu dengan lebih panjang, nak tanya semua mommies, kenapa kita bagi anak kita makanan homemade?

kalau i, sebab kita nak yang terbaik untuk anak kita. kita tahu ape bahan kita letak dalam food dia, dan mestilah kita pilih bahan yang terbaik untuk tumbesaran anak kita. dan juga nak suruh dia merasa air tangan kita. kan?

tujuan i share resepi i masak untuk maryam pulak as an idea untuk mommies yang buntu tak tahu nak masak ape. sebab itu adalah masalah i jugak. hari-hari okeh buntu.

janganlah pulak ade mommies down tengok menu maryam pelik-pelik, baby dia pulak makan bubur hari-hari. makan sup hari-hari. how i wish maryam nak makan benda sama hari-hari. tukar-tukar sayur ngan lauk jer. masak sekali sehari makan untuk 3 kali. kalau lah maryam nak macam tu, senang nya lah i. lagi banyak masa untuk beronggeng. hueh hueh

i have to masak macam-macam sampai pening-pening kepala, tarik-tarik rambut sebab my baby hanya akan makan makanan yang baru masak jer. tiada menu ulangan. jenis try and error, kadang makan banyak, kekadang makan sikit. walaupon menu sama.

memang lah seronok masakkan dia macam-macam. tapi i ni bukan rajin sangat. pemalas lipas. datang lah mood rajin sekali sekala tu seronok lah main masak-masak, datang mood malas terpikir gak, bestnya kalau masak pagi jer, maryam boleh makan sampai dinner..xpon hari-hari makan bubur campak-campak jer dalam periuk.

so mommies, kesimpulan disini, i pon kalau boleh nak masak bubur ngan sup jugakkk. sebab berbalik kepada soalan diatas, yang penting homemade, berkhasiat. tak kisah lah dalam bentuk macam mana. bubur ka, sup ka, bentuk love ka, lonjong ka, petak ka. yang penting baby dapat nutrisi terbaik untuk dia membesar. kalau dia dah agak-agak bosan tu, boleh lah variasikan. banyakkkkk resepi kita boleh masak, tapi bergantung kepada masa kita lah.

tapi kalau ade masa tak salah nak masakkan food yang lain dari biasa. 

berbalik kepada maryam ni, kalau dia sihat ok jer selera dia. makan jer semua. alhamdulillah tak memilih. tapi boleh tengok lah, kalau food dia suka excited la makan. happy gelak-gelak. kalau food dia kureng, makan jugak, tapi muka redha macam kena paksa makan.

sebagi mak, biasanya kita tahu selera anak kita macammana. tapi tak selalu yang kita teka tu betul. masalh i 2,3 hari ni tulah. semua makanan yang dia suka dia reject, buat pelbagai texture pon reject. i faham lah, sebab dia tak sihat. tapi i sebagai mak nak jugak cari food yang dia lalu makan masa tak sihat ni. perlukan makanan jugak kan nak lawan sakit-sakit ni biar cepat sembuh.tapi sabar banyak-banyak, teruskan mencuba insyaallah nanti Allah akan tolong jugak.

pagi i buatkan dia lempeng. dia tak nak semulut pon. minum susu jer as a breakfast. pastu i kasi ubat. habis ubat tu dia minum, tak luahkan balik setitik pon.

TING!
