Rice contains high levels of Arsenic
Rice contains high levels of Arsenic and Sugar
Rice not only contains a lot of sugar, recent studies show that the popular food contains a high level of arsenic too.
Arsenic occurs naturally in soil, and inorganic arsenic is classified as a category one carcinogen by the European Union, meaning that it's known to cause cancer in humans.
Rice tends to take up more arsenic from the environment than other cereal crops. It has around 10 - 20 times more arsenic than other cereal crops. This is because it is grown in flooded conditions which make it much easier for arsenic to leave the soil and enter the rice.

Palm Oil changes chromosomes and DNA
Palm oil is cheap but unhealthy
A study recently published by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) shows alarming results: Palm oil in food can be carcinogenic and can alter the genetic material!
The dangerous substance is known as glycidyl ester. Glycidyl ester can be produced during the production of the palm oil: Precursors of the dangerous substance can develop already during the harvest of the palm fruits or during transport by unsanet treatment. However, the greatest pollutant load can be caused by the refining process, since palm oil is usually heated above 200°C. The heating is necessary to neutralize the red color of the oil and its unpleasant odor. The glycidyl ester accumulates in the oil.
Palm oil is found in most industrially produced foods because it's the cheapest oil around.
A study initiated by Marktcheck found alarming high values of glycidyl ester in biscuits from OREO and crackers from TUC.

If you are healthy you can eat as much as you like
In 2012 a Canadian research group led by David Spence from Western University found that deposits in the arterial walls are accelerated by frequent consumption of egg yolks. The cholesterol contained in eggs can even clog the throat lines leading to the brain, which increases the risk of stroke, the scientists said.
But recent investigations are questening the results of the Canadians. Healthy people even can enjoy several eggs per day without running in any problems, the results of the latest analyses show.
However, restrictions apply for type 2 diabetics. If blood levels are poorly adjusted, cholesterol crystallization may occur when eggs are consumed.
Also, if your LDL cholesterol value is above 200 you shouldn't eat more than three eggs a week.
If too much LDL cholesterol is present in the blood, it deposits on the vessel walls. You will get inflammatory swellings on the vascular walls, the so-called atherosclerotic plaques.
Nevertheless, yolks from free-ranging chickens contain a lot of healthy Omega-3 fatty acid.
Losing weight, making sport and stop smoking is still the best recipe for a healthy life.

Forget all you ever heard about Cooking Oil
Coconuts provide the perfect oil for pan frying, deep frying and oven baking
The chemical composition of an oil determines its usability and its quality.
The latest research shows that an optimal balance between Omega-3 and Omega-6 fats is crucial to our health.
We all know that Americans as well as some other Westerners are eating very unhealthy. Their Omega-3 to Omega-6 ratio is 1:16!
A healthy ratio would be 2:1 to 4:1!
The graph shows the chemical composition of the different oils
The above graphic shows that coconut oil is the perfect oil for frying, deep-frying and baking. It contains almost no Omega-6 but has a high smoke point.
For salads you should choose Flaxseed Oil over Olive Oils.
Flaxseed Oils have an almost perfect Omega-3 to Omega-6 ratio of 3.2 : 1.
The Graph shows that the heavily advertised and so called 'healthy' Olive Oil contains much too much of Omega-6 fatty acids.
Olive Oil's Omega-3 to Omega-6 ratio is an unhealthy 1 : 9!
Moreover, recent tests of 50 olive oils by the reputable Deutsche Warentest Institut showed that only one olive oil provided the expected quality, the remaining 49 oils couldn't get a recommendation from the vendor independed institut. They all had significant deficiencies in quality.
Note: Most olive oils are healthy only for their producers and distributors.
Walnuts are very healhty.
Walnuts not only taste great but are a rich source of heart-healthy monounsaturated fats and an excellent source of those hard to find omega-3 fatty acids.
Cashews are healhty too.
Cashews are an excellent source of copper and a good source of phosphorus, magnesium, manganese and zinc.
Hazelnuts are a well-known combatant in the fight against heart disease.
Hazelnuts are a very good source of copper as well as a good source of manganese, folate, vitamin E, phosphorus, vitamin B-6, vitamine K, thiamine, magnesium, zinc, potasium and the heart-healthy monounsaturated fats.
Peanuts are an excellent source of biotin.
Peanuts are a very good source of copper as well as a good source of manganese, niacin, molybdenum, folate, vitamin E, phosphorus, vitamin B1, protein and the heart-healthy monounsaturated fats.
Animals know since centuries what's healthy. We are just learning...
Where can I buy Coconut Oil in Pattaya?
Coconut Oil at Central Food Hall (also known as TOPS Supermarket).
Thailand's wholesaler responded quickly: Big C, Foodland, Tesco/Lotus and TOPS, they all offer at least one product, mostly in a price range of about 125 Baht/litre. TOPS, at Central Food Hall at least, is currently offering the largest selection, from 95 Baht to 580 Baht/litre.
Update:
The secret to a long and healthy life? Eat less, the BBC recommends.
The information published above are based on researchs of independent scientists at European Universities, not on papers provided by industries, producers and/or distributors of oils.
Shortly after the publishing of the facts the American Heart Association (AHA) released a warning, saying that Coconut oil is as unhealthy as beef dripping and butter. It is packed with saturated fat which can raise "bad" cholesterol, MD Frank Sacks, the lead author of AHA's warning, claims.
Some Websites that published AHA's "findings":
American Heart Association
News on Heart.org
Medpage Today
NDTV.com
Medscape by WebMD
Good to know:
The AHA (American Heart Association) and the U.S. FDA (Food and Drug Administration) do not provide their own test(s). Their recommendations are based on papers they collect from Universities and the industries.
The AHA is a sponsered organisation.
Against its better knowledge, the FDA claimed during decades that cholesterol is a main factor in heart diseases and helped Unilever (Becel), Pfizer (Lipitor) as well as others made a fortune with the unscientific information they published about Cholesterol.
Please read the reports published by Diet234, Legal Insurrection, VERA Files and Scientific American about the Cholesterol scam.

Forget all that shit people told you about bread!
Healthy Bread
Scientists from the Weizmann Institute compared two kinds of bread viewed as being on opposite ends of the health spectrum. One was industrial white bread made from refined wheat and considered less healthy. The other was sourdough-leavened bread made in an artisanal bakery from freshly stone-milled whole grain wheat flour and baked in a stone hearth oven: It was prepared specially for the study and was assumed to possess superior properties.
During the study the scientists divided the participants into two groups and asked to consume large quantities of bread (supplying about a quarter of their caloric intake) for a week. One group ate the white bread, and the other, the healthy sourdough bread. After a two-week break, they switched, and for a week the group that had previously eaten white bread ate the sourdough bread, and vice versa.
Tests revealed that eating bread of any kind affected the blood levels of sugar, minerals, liver enzymes and other substances. But when the scientists compared the effects of the two types of bread, they were surprised. We were sure that the sourdough bread would come out a healthier choice, but much to our surprise, we found no difference between the health effects of the two types of bread, says Prof. Eran Segal of Weizmann Institute's Computer Science and Applied Mathematics Department.
The study showed, for example, that about half of the participants had higher blood sugar levels after eating white bread, whereas the other half had higher blood sugar after eating sourdough bread.
It seems that the body's response to bread is a highly personal matter. It works like the placebo effect: If you believe that sourdough bread is better for you, it will be better for you - but not healthier.
Don't forget:
Like Rice, dark bread contains a lot more arsenic than white once.
If the arsenic resides in your body it remains there and will shorten your live!

Wikipedia about Pattaya No Alcohol Days
Thailand's National No Alcohol Days include Buddhist holidays and election days.
On all oher days alcohol can only be sold between 11:00-14:00 and 17:00-24:00.
Vendors caught breaking the ban are liable to a prison sentence of up to six months, a 10'000 Baht fine or both - but local Police use their own discretion to decide which venues need to be visited and fined...
Don't start laughing:
Do not try to buy non alcoholic beers (available from Clausthaler and Oettinger in this country).
The shops won't sell them during dry days.
Some not even sell Soda Water, because Thais and their Police associate it with (Thai) Whisky...
There's a sucker born every minute...
