Enzymes from raw vegetable to aide in anti-aging

Half of the vegetables you eat per day should be raw vegetables.

There are 2 types of enzyme.

- Digestive enzyme
- Metabolic enzyme

Digestive enzyme is necessary to digest food. If not digested well, small intestine cannot absorb nutrition.

Metabolic enzyme works to metabolize, detox, and to antioxidize body. Antioxidants are very important for anti-aging.

These 2 enzymes are composed of proteins and minerals. They are produced in body, but are in raw food and fermented food too. The amount of enzyme produced in body is fixed already, so if too much enzyme is used for digestion, the enzyme cannot be used for metabolism, including antioxidant function. Therefore, you should increase the amount of these enzymes by eating raw food and fermented food, before eating a lot of other food.

Good Oil- benetits from Omega 3 for women

Female hormones are composed of oil. Oil is a component of the cell membrane. Cell membranes takes  in nutrients, detox unnecessary stuff, and protect you from virus.
Too much oil is not good, but you need to have oil to some extent. It has to be good oil though.
The best oil you should take every day is Omega 3, which comes from flaxseed, for example.

Mixed millet as supplement- instead of brown rice

Lately, people are eating brown rice for health, but brown rice has hard bran which is hard to digest. When brown rice is digested poorly, the nutrition % absorbed is lower than white rice. Therefore, I recommend white rice with mixed millet.

Glycation reaction

It is important no to elevate blood glucose level. Glycation reaction accelerates aging by making inflammation which produces wrinkle, age spot, sagging skin.

It is better to reduce high GI food.

Instead of white sugar, use agave, or mirin.
Instead of bread, cookie, pizza, noodle, white rice of refined wheat, use those of whole wheat grain.

In addition,
- eat food of fiber, before eating a lot.
- eat vinegar before eating a lot or add vinegar on high GI food.
Fiber or vinegar retards sugar digestion, and keeps down blood glucose level.

Additive in processed food

Most free radicals are produced in liver, detox factory. So, it is better to give less burden to liver.

One of the free radical producers is excessive intake of food additive.

Processed food has lot's of additive because it helps lower price, easy process, and convenience.

How do you know what is additive? Additive is what you do not have in your kitchen.

Original taste- MUST eliminate MSG

Since we are used to too many additives, our taste is now crazy.

In other words, if your original taste is natural, you can taste additives by eating MSG! But, I cannot, because I've had too many additives in my diet for too long.

However, if you eliminate MSG from your diet, you will recover original sense of taste.

Good bye to Microwave?

Microwaves use a very high frequency electromagnetic wave called "microwave". Because of this high electromagnetic wave, each molecule gets friction from each other to increase temperature. Therefore, when it is done, the molecule is badly damaged and easy to get oxidized.
In addition, amino acid type changes after microwave. Amino acid in our food should be type L, but microwave change it from L to D. If you have type D amino acid in your body, you might have several disorders, for example, cataract, Alzheimer, hardened arteries.

Microwave is very convenient, but for long term health, it might be better to reduce the amount of the use.
