Hit the Facts Today!
Why you should spend $9.50 to buy Reader's Digest.
Or bug Sy to give you hers.
It's really enriching and interesting to know these facts.
1. Those taking supplements have lungs cancer rate 28% higher, and overall deathrate up by 17%. Research by US National Cancer Insititute.
2. Following sports can help mental health. Research by Daniel Wann, a psychology professor at Murray State University, US. His reaearch found out that sport fans have lower rates of depression and higher self-esteem than non-fans. So if people go on at you, Alvin, about being a sports-obessed, couch potato, tell them you're doing it for your mental health. And they'll know you NEED IT. Hahaha!
3. "Racing thoughts" are commonly considered a symptom of depression or mental disorder but a study in Princeton University in New Jersey has found out that when healthy people are made to think more quickly, their mood, energy level and self-esteem have more positive results. Now, think faster or more is no wrong!
4. Many people in their job, especially those caring for others, get to a point where there's imbalance between their own emotions and their confrontations of difficulties. This, inturn led to higher depression and burnout rate of people working as doctors, pastors and nurses... And jobs relating to solving another person's problems. Research by Steven Hinshaw, pHd, professor of Harvard Medicine Research Centre.
5. Sugar-free mixers(eg: diet coke to cola) speed alchohol into the blood.
6. Sugar-free yogurt is a healthy snack, and it freshen breath! Experiment and research by Dr Nigel Carter, British Dental Foundation.
7. Cutted fruits do not lose their nutrients as fast as we think they would. Experiment of cutted fruits(watermelons, strawberries, honeydews, pineapples, mangoes, kiwifruits) left refrigerated for 5days to find their nutrients content with a whole fruit has not much difference. The message? Chill out and enjoy your fruits slowly...
8. If you're prone to losing your anger, beware! Losing anger makes your lungs weaker. Research by Harvard School of Public Health.
9. If you often opt for a muffin to snack more healthly, you're being fooled. One muffin's avg calories contend is double a bar of Mars chocolate. Research by NUH, yes! Singapore's NUH! But by an ang-moh doctor -..-
10. 60% of females infertility is caused by underweight. Obese woman are 3times more likely to be infertile. Research by Harvard School of Public Health.
If my post did bore you out, then please DO NOT buy Reader's Digest...

请你不要这么没有用。
你领受这么多：好家庭、好脑袋、好教育、好环境、好经济。。。
你哪里可以不用神给以你的这一切呢？
这样一来，就好像一个拿了5千银子的人，却又有1千银子的人的态度。
遇到不顺利的事就像放弃，不觉得这样很对不起那些关心、疼爱你的人和神吗？
From a movie I watched yesterday:
"If you have a dream, you'll have to protect it. Because people will tell you that you can't do something, in hope you'll give up." But do not.
就算读不懂华文字，总可以理解ANG-MOH吧？
加油咯，神的荣耀是在人的软弱上彰显的！
