Interesting ways for better health and some it’s expensive also.







Since my medical diagnosis and operation, a lot of kind people including my relatives, friends and colleague has giving me a lot of suggestion on what food to eat to prevent, subdue or to ensure that I will be “healthy” enough to live longer like what has been published in regards to the general mortality of a young Malaysian Male.

A colleague of mine even gives me a book that was published by an expert in Taiwan by the name of Dr Luke Lin which generally encourage the general population to eat sweet potato. He has sold books (a lot of them) which taught and shown the type of food to eat (beside sweet potato) to cleanse our body of harmful substance.

I could not really read the book as it is written in Chinese but luckily it came with 2 CDs which contains his talks given in a university. His talk is in mandarin, I do understand some mandarin as I saw a lot of old mandarin love movies back in the 80’s. You know lah when you are teenage you tend to get attracted with anything that talks about love, hahaha.

The talk contains his views in regards to the types of food to avoid and how to choose certain foods, eat certain types of food and etc. The type of food to avoid is of course fried and fast foods like KFC, burger, French fries and etc. One interesting recommendations is to eat banana together with its skin. I have not tried but some colleagues of mine did try. They said it taste ok. I got 2 of his books, both was given by my caring colleague.

I have also been eating bird nest regularly. This product which generally is a bird nest makes by bird saliva is one product that my cousin recommended to me highly. It is known to help in the fight of cancer and of course the most famous known reason is that it helps to keep one person youthful. It was rumors that most hongkong actresses and actors depend on it for their flawless skin. Although this stuff is made by a humbly creature but is expensive, the bird nest shown here cost me Rm2K plus.

My sister, my wife and me has been eating it since last years. Almost every fortnight my sister will starts the process of cooking it. First she will soak it in the water for a day then she wills starts to pick out bird hairs that are still stuck to it. She will then boil it in the slow cocker for almost 7 to 8 hours. Normally the Rm2K plus of bird nest will last us for 2 months plus as sometimes my sis is tired and it’s expensive. I hope it do helps me one way or another....

i think bird nest does help... my skin condition were better after i ate birdnest regularly - twice a month. As my supply ran out, the pimples are coming back liao.

I bought the bird nest in Miri. I think it is quite cheap comparing to KL. KL price might be 299 whereas I get it around 180. The shop that sell birdnest even got special price for silverlakers as we always bought from them whenever we went to miri.

Btw, those with bird hair is more expensive than processed. I bought processed one. Usually, i soaked it for 2 hours and steam-boiled for 2-3 hours depends on the type of birdnest. they got normal, golden, trio, bloody. lol.
