Power Of The Guava Plant

| June 23, 2010

I live in a country were almost plants can grow. I live in a rain forest country. My land is rich with different kinds of plants. Different varieties of plants can grow everywhere. One the example of plants or herbal plants that can grow everywhere is guava also known as "bayabas" in our country.

What I’m about to say is my own experience and opinion only, I am not suggesting that this plant will have the same effect on you. 

Bayabas or guava is best known for many herbal benefits. All parts of guava can be use as medicine. Guava plant can cure diarrhea, allergies, diabetes, defective gums, aching tooth, heal wounds, control blood pressure and can also help reduce weigh. It is known as an "all you can plant" in our place.

When you have a diarrhea, first thing to do is pick some leaves of the guava and boil it. You need to drink some of the boiled guava leaves. Take a rest and after that diarrhea is gone. If you have a defective gum or an aching tooth, Elders in our place tell us to get some leaves and chew it for several minutes and your mouth pains will be gone. And it is really true, I tried it myself before. It can also heal wounds, external wounds particularly, by crashing the leaves of the guava and put or place it to the wound. In that way, your pain will be lessen and after a few days it will be completely healed just by continuing to put a crash guava leaves in your wound. When you happen to have a high blood pressure, all you have to do is eat some fruit of the guava. Older person practice that because they are the person who usually got a high blood pressure. There is some content in a guava that can helps your metabolism works fast resulting into weigh loss.

This is just some of the miracles and powers of a guava plant can do. There are a lot more. It may not help against halitosis or gum disease the way a good oral irrigator can, but read this oramd review.

Stress Is Not Cool…

| June 17, 2010

Stress is when your peace of mind is interrupted and your emotions are worked up. You can feel stress in your home, work or your child can feel stress at school. If not handled properly, it can mess with our minds and our health.

Stress feels like you are carrying a large burden on your shoulders. You have a lot of responsibilities that seem like it all falls toward you and no one else. You have feelings of anxiety and frustration.  Stress can contribute to health issues like gum disease.

There are times when you will get angry because so much has come upon you and it seems to be overwhelming. You feel overpowered to do anything so it’s easy for you to get into worrying about things that you can’t control.

It doesn’t have to be big things that will cause stress. It could be some of the smallest things that can set you off and make you tense.

There are different things and events that can cause you to be stressed. What may cause stress for one person may not be the same for someone else. It’s basically different strokes for different folks when it comes to stress.

Stress can be physical, internal, emotional and external. They can be caused by a loss you’ve experienced, overworking yourself, sickness, arguments and other problems that you face.

You can also experience stress from office politics. This is not something that you should get involved in. It is not good for you mentally, especially if you’re dealing with other problems. Office politics can be very brutal and you have to know how to deal with it. The last thing you want to do is to bring it home with you.

One of the worst things you can do is to turn to drugs or alcohol to relieve stress. You will be on a never ending loop and things can go further south from there. If you do develop that gum disease we talked about, try the hydrofloss or therabreath mouthwash for better oral hygiene.  So, therefore it is extremely important to watch over your dental health during times of stress. This would include pregnancy when the risk of getting gum disease rises. 

Getting rid of stress is important for many aspects of your life.  Stress levels vary, but if you learn could stress management techniques, you might live a happier, longer and more fulfilling life.
