Fully Ripe Bananas Produce TNF

The fully ripe banana produces a substance called TNF which has the ability to combat abnormal cells.
So don't be surprised very soon the shop will go out of stock for bananas.

As the banana ripens, it develops dark spots or patches on the skin. The more dark patches it has, the higher will be its' immunity enhancement quality. Hence the Japanese love bananas for a good reason.

According to a Japanese scientific research, banana contains TNF which has anti-cancer properties.
The degree of anti-cancer effect corresponds to the degree of ripeness of the fruit,  ie the riper the banana, the better the anti-cancer quality.

In an animal experiment carried out by a professor in Tokyo U comparing the various health benefits of different fruits, using banana, grape, apple, water melon, pineapple, pear and persimmon, it was found that banana gave the best results. It increased the number of white blood cells, enhanced the immunity of the body and produced anti-cancer substance TNF.

The recommendation is to eat 1 to 2 banana a day to increase your body immunity to diseases like cold, flu and others.  According to the Japanese professor, yellow skin bananas with dark spots on it are 8 times more effective in enhancing the property of white blood cells than the green skin version.

  3. Dear Ahbodolahman,
    Below is an article which may help you to Reduce Uric Acid - 7 Easy Tips to Reduce Uric Acid Naturally
    By John Cielo

    Learn how to reduce uric acid naturally without the need for expensive mainstream drug-based treatments with their nasty side effects. Many gout sufferers, fed up with these treatments, are now turning to totally natural remedies to relieve their gout. There are many ways to reduce your uric acid levels, but here you'll discover 7 of the most effective and popular.

    The agonizing symptoms of gout are caused by uric acid crystals that are formed out of excess uric acid in your bloodstream. This excess is formed from the breakdown of 'purines' which exist in our body and a lot of our food. Your kidneys normally flush this out of your system. But sometimes they don't work to their full potential and you end up with excess acid in your blood: hence the symptoms of gout.

    Here are 7 simple ways to reduce your uric acid levels:-

    1. Drink lots of water, preferably 10 to 12 eight-ounce glasses every day, to flush excess uric acid from your body.

    2. Don't eat purine-rich foods like, red meat, offal, poultry (especially turkey), shellfish, mackerel, sardines.

    3. Eat foods high in vitamin C and vitamin E. Multivitamins can be helpful too.

    4. Eat lots of cherries, strawberries and blueberries. Cherries are fantastic for gout relief!

    5. Eat high-fiber foods to help flush out your body.

    6. Eat lots of fresh vegetables and fruit, but NOT asparagus, mushrooms, or cauliflower.

    7. Drink apple cider vinegar. You can also apply it topically. It's good for lowering acid levels and pain relief. But it must be raw apple cider vinegar with no additives.

    Whilst these popular tips on how to reduce uric acid will certainly help, there are many other things that need to be considered when battling the agonies of gout. For example, things such as your weight, medical conditions, diet, body pH, family history, etc. And if not properly treated, recurring gout can lead to severely damaged joints and kidney problems in the future.

    You can follow a detoxification program to eleminate the toxins from your body.

  4. So the banana itself does not need to be black to boost immunity just the skin? Very interesting I had no idea. Thank you for sharing your information. More http://myhealth-your-health.blogspot.com

  5. How does freezing or baking effect the benefits of ripe bananas?

    1. Freezing stops the enzyme action and baking or cooking destroys the enzymes in the banana. Without enzymes, the banana will be difficult to get digested. If the liver is functioning, it will compensate by secreting enzyme to get it digest it. Too much of cooked food, especially meat, will deplete the liver of enzymes. So it is better to take food cooked with medium fire steam a while so as not to destroy the enzymes. Taking half ripe banana in the morning helps to coat the gut and allow smooth flow of food.

    2. Just to clarify: you said "Freezing stops the enzyme action" - does this mean that frozen food, after thawing, will have live enzymes? Secondly, you said "it is better to take food cooked with medium fire steam...so as not to destroy the enzymes". You are saying, then, that 'medium fire steam' allows foods to retain some live enzymes? And if so, can you explain allowable temperatures for cooking with the goal of retaining the enzymes? Thank you!

It's also a subtle warning sign of chronic medical conditions including diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease. People tend to store fat in their hips, belly, and buttocks in general. Weight loss should not be viewed as a temporary fix, but rather as a permanent commitment to healthy eating habits, increased physical activity, frequent exercise, and a positive mental attitude.Aarogya Ayurvedic Weight Loss Supplement in Tamilnadu

  8. This was an useful blog for Hair thinning psychology is a complicated topic. Hair is a significant element of one's overall personality. It is a sign of femininity and attraction for women. A head full of hair is frequently associated with youth and vigour in men. Although there may be signs of pattern baldness in the family, many people are wary about discussing the subject. Hair loss is a sensitive topic for both men and women. Hair thinning and baldness can cause a sense of quarantine in those who encounter it. They frequently find themselves in situations where their outward appearance is a hindrance. They are self-conscious about their appearance, fearing that they may appear older and less attractive to others.aarogya weight loss in Tamilnadu

  9. This was an useful blog for According to a World Health Organization (WHO) report, one out of every three persons in the world has diabetes. As around 352 million people are diagnosed as pre-diabetic, the number of diabetics is likely to rise. It shows that while 6% of the population has diabetes, another 5% are on the verge of developing it, making India the country with the greatest number of diabetics in the world. Obesity, in combination with rising living standards, urban migration, and lifestyle changes, has the potential to turn every Indian household into a diabetic patient's home. The diabetes pattern is influenced to some extent by India's topography.aarogya dinner tea

  10. This was an useful blog for Ark for Health, made from Gomyo distillation, is the greatest Ayurvedic medicine for general health and high blood pressure. The process of distillation carried out in a controlled manner at our Goshala in Kangeyam is the key to the product's success. Our cows are native to the area and are never kept in stalls. They are raised in a natural setting by allowing them to graze for 8 to 10 hours in a neighbouring woodland area. The process of distillation is carried out according to the Vedic technique. Between the hours of 2 and 5 a.m., the Gomyo is collected in the Brahma muhurta. Later, the Gomyo is placed to a clay pot and infused with important herbs to create a mixture. Gomyo has an odour that is repulsive.detox dinner tea in India
