Antony Worrall Thompson- Snickers Pie



Worrall Thompson's recipe for Snickers Pie was nominated by independent food watchdog The Food Commission as one of the most unhealthy dessert recipes ever.

Thompson recommended the poisonous plant Henbane as a "tasty addition to salads" in the August 2008 issue of Healthy and Organic Living magazine. Apologising for the error Thompson said: "I was thinking of a wild plant with a similar name, Fat Hen, not this herb. It's a bit embarrassing, but there have been no reports of any casualties.

Botox breast lifts

Painless and effective?

Gravity is not all equally favorable. Women who want something to do their pendulous breasts were previously dependent on a heavy and costly operation. In Great Britain, now a different approach: the Botox breast lift.

This breast lift is not the botox injected into the muscles, like other botox treatments, but the skin around the breasts. According to the doctor is a painless treatment without side effects and the breasts lifted about two inches. After an average of six months, new injections.

Not everyone is enthusiastic about the new method. Botox paralyzes the muscles and thereby is unable to lift the breast to look like or greater. The treatment is only available up to 75C cup size, because larger breasts are too heavy.


As per Daily Mail: The Botox breast lift costs £700 at the Wimpole Skin Care Centre in London, 020 7935 8277.

 

5 Make-up tips for eyeglass wearers

Even if you wear glasses, you can very well wear eye makeup. Please take into account what glass frames your eyes fit with.


















Negative or positive
Look your eyes carefully in the mirror. Put your glasses on and off again. Are your eyes getting bigger or smaller? By positive lenses your eyes appear bigger. This means that spots and wipe magnified. Keep on drawing and use cotton buds to remove. Negative lenses allow your eyes look smaller. The trick to counter that effect: choose makeup with shine and bright colors.

Frame
Glasses may be seen! If you look around you, everywhere you see large and striking frames. Did you feel that it is big?Keep your eye make-up than quiet. Use less layers of eyeliner or eye pencil. Less is more! And just like the color of your outfit matches your frame, you can also consider the color of your eyeshadow. A red eye and bright blue eyeshadow is perhaps not the best combination ...

Apply
Start with the basics: clean your face and apply a thin layer of concealer and powder. Choose three shades of eyeshadow the same color. Apply the lightest shade to your entire eyelid up to your brow. Take your eye color for the middle and dark at the outer corner of your eye. Do not use too much mascara, up to two layers, with glasses because you see lumps are much better. Do not forget your glasses just yet to set up your look and see if they were successful.


Eyebrows
With glasses you feel more eyebrows. They emphasize not only your eyes but also your glasses. So make sure that they look pretty: plucked straight, possibly updated with brow powder or pencil. Even when choosing a frame you can remember. The edge of your frame should be in line with your eyebrows or just under it. Otherwise it looks like you have no eyebrows!

The rest of your face
Of course it is important that you look good out through your glasses. But need to think of the color of your lipstick. Not clash with your frames? When you blush, make sure that the edge of your seat does not have the rouge. This breaks the lines in your face. With glasses on the skin under your eyes appear darker. This fix you with a good concealer. Foundation hides the red spots on your nose bridge.

"Maggi" 2-Minute Noodles


BE AWARE.....!!!


Many of us can't do without " Maggi " especially when one is away from home, in a foreign land. Here is a piece of information to share so that we can remove the potential health hazard of consuming Maggi.

DO NOT IGNORE THIS ... Especially those fond of Maggi...

'CORRECT WAY OF COOKING NOODLES'
The correct way to cook instant noodles without harming our bodies and health:

Normally, how we cook the instant noodles is to put the noodles into a pot with water, throw in the powder and let it cook for around 3 minutes and then it's ready to eat.

This is the WRONG method of cooking the instant noodles.

By doing this, when we actually boil the ingredients in the powder,normally with MSG, it will change the molecular structure of the MSG, causing it to be toxic.

The other thing that you may or may not realize is that, the noodles are coated with wax and it will take around 4 to 5 days for the body to excrete the wax after you have eaten the noodles.


CORRECT METHOD:


1. Boil the noodles in a pot of water.

2. Once the noodles are cooked, take out the noodles, and throw away the water which contains wax.

3. Boil another pot of water, add the cooked noodles into the hot boiling water and then turn off the stove.

4. Only at this stage when the stove is off, and while the water is very hot, add the flavouring powder into the water, to make noodle soup.

5. However, if you need dry noodles, remove the noodles and add the flavouring powder and toss it to get dry noodles.


Dietician's Note:
If you buy plain hakka noodles which you make, you initially need to boil in water and discard the water. This will soften the noodles but to prevent it from sticking we need to add a tbsp of oil and also the noodles are deep fried partially to make them crunchy and then dusted with flour to prevent them from sticking while boiling. Hence when you buy the noodles they are already made unhealthy and this is the type we use to make stir fry noodles and the regular Maggie too is made the same way, plus they add MSG / Ajinomoto and other chemical preservatives.

A large number of patients with ages ranging from 18-24 years are ending up with pancreatitis either as a swelling or infection of the pancreas due to regular consumption of instant noodles... If the frequency is more than 3 times a week, then it is very hazardous...

Please share this info and help save a life.

Pancreatitis is inflammation of the pancreas. The pancreas is a gland located behind the stomach. It releases the hormones insulin and glucagon, as well as digestive enzymes that help you digest and absorb food.
