Starting Healthy

Mark's early-morning consumings and some of their health benefits -- green tea, enzymes, multi-vitamins, cayenne pepper, and so forth.

I launched my day in a fashion good for my health:

  • Invested time praying for my family and me.
  • Read this morning’s Scripture selections from Daily Light on the Daily Path. (And highlighted one verse at Panting Hart.)
  • Gingerly ate half a banana (too green yet to eat a whole half).
  • Sipped (happily) two cups of Nescafé Clásico.
  • Slurped (less enjoyably) one cup of Blueberry Breeze Green Tea. I’ve told you before about the benefits of green tea (but you have to drink it, OK?).
  • Chomped down three Papaya Enzymes tablets. They taste good and when I consume them faithfully I don’t need Tums or Rolaids like before.
  • Shook cayenne pepper onto the fried egg I ate.
  • Ate slice of homemade bread. Toasted. Under fried egg, in lieu of plate. (Yes, I ate the lieu too.)
  • Swallowed two Vitamin Code 50 & Wiser Men. (I suppose that’s what the cannibal said too.) 😯

It also seems to lower the risk of stroke and some cancers, improve your mood, and help with other conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis.

And other stuff (including ignorance) I throw at a bad throat

Well, dear reader, you didn’t buy any toilet paper. So let me tell you something else.

My throat hurts.

I know, that would matter much more to you if you had just said that. That doesn’t hurt my feelings. I understand.

But I’m not writing to tell you my throat hurts, but to tell you about something I did for it. Read it all

Am I Ill?

I just got back from my morning constitutional.

(What a nice brisk walk in the cool of the cloudy morning!)

I saw two of my neighbors out and about.

Neighbor One — his shirt sleeves not reaching to his wrists — was feeding his outdoor birds.

Neighbor Two — his pant sleeves not reaching to his leg wrists Read it all
