Guava the Best fruit


Guava
Guava are abundantly grown in the Philippines and sold in very cheap price that most of us feel of its affordability without thinking its nutritional value that we can get upon eating this fruit.

A series of test in fruits resulted to the discovery that guava is the best food with the highest concentration of antioxidants that protect us against cell damage that makes our skin older and can cause cancer.

Antioxidants found in Apples are only one quarter of antioxidants in the guava, while bananas contain only small amounts of 30 mg per 100 grams while Watermelon and Pineapple offers less protection against free radicals that cause cellular damage.


Mango has a high content of fructose content having 170 mg of antioxidants, more than three times greater than the papaya while Grapes are three times more beneficial to the body instead of orange.

Antioxidants help fight free radicals that prevent cell damage. Cell damages are responsible for causing cancer, aging, cardiovascular disease and degenerative diseases. “

"So far, no study has shown that antioxidants can help heal, but it can help or reduce the risk of cancer.”


His team was surprised, but very pleased to find out that one of the cheapest fruit offers the excellent benefits to health.

"Guava is a rich source of antioxidants source of fiber. This is the fruit of the poor, because it is very cheap," Dr. Sreeramulu added.

Most poisonings occur when parents or caregivers are home but not paying attention. The most dangerous potential poisons are medicines, cleaning products, antifreeze, windshield wiper fluid, pesticides, furniture polish, gasoline, kerosene and lamp oil. Be especially vigilant when there is a change in routine. Holidays, visits to and from grandparents' homes, and other special events may bring greater risk of poisoning if the usual safeguards are defeated or not in place. 

  • Store medicine, cleaners, paints/varnishes and pesticides in their original packaging in locked cabinets or containers, out of sight and reach of children.
  •  
  • Install a safety latch that locks when you close the door on child-accessible cabinets containing harmful products.
  •  
  • Purchase and keep all medicines in containers with safety caps. Discard unused medication.
  •  
  • Never refer to medicine as "candy" or another appealing name.

  • Check the label each time you give a child medicine to ensure proper dosage.
  •  
  • Never place poisonous products in food or drink containers.
  •  
  • Keep coal, wood or kerosene stoves in safe working order.
  •  
  • Maintain working smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

Different types and methods of poisoning require different, immediate treatment:
 
  • Swallowed poison Remove the item from the child, and have the child spit out any remaining substance. Do not make your child vomit. Do not use syrup of ipecac.
  •  
  • Skin poison -- Remove the child's clothes and rinse the skin with lukewarm water for at least 15 minutes.
  •
