Besides the brand FL’s using, the website also posted some other popular brands (which we can easily find at all major supermarkets) contained dioxane too. Of cos, all these news were in the China/HK websites, I wonder our country started to look into it already or not? Or just as usual, tell us that that product in other countries got problem, but the same product in our country got no problem?

Anyway, back to the topic. What I’m trying to say here is that, why every time, after a product launched in the market for SO MANY years then only they realized it’s harmful to us? Can you imagine, it might be 10 yrs, or 20 or 30 yrs we’ve already used that product, then suddenly u tell us it’s not good for our health, what will happened to us? I guess that’s why so many ppl diagnosed with cancer nowadays, the food we eating, the product we using, all caused cancer..

Since now they said most shampoo in the market also contained dioxane, maybe we should start using soap powder to wash our hair? or better still don’t wash hair at all?

“Kurang Manis” basically means less sweet. If you order a cup of nescafe/teh tarik, “kurang manis” means add less condensed milk, or when you order a glass of “limau ais”, kurang manis means less sugar. But one thing I found out whenever I order “kurang manis” drinks is, besides adding less condensed milk/sugar, they will reduce everything else too.

Let’s say you order nescafe kurang manis, when your drink is served, you’ll noticed, besides less condensed milk, they actually used less nescafe powder to make the drink. In other words, your nescafe becomes tasteless, no nescafe taste, no sweet taste.. Same goes with ordering limau ais, no limau taste, no sweet taste…

hmm…how to make them understand kurang manis is just to reduce the sugar/milk and not other stuff? Should we start order our drinks with.. nescafe kurang manis banyak nescafe? or limau ais kurang manis banyak limau?

I’ve been suffering for months now, well, almost 2 months. I had sleepless nights, terrible itch, and I tried my best to avoid the sun, as heat makes the itch worst. Then I started to take bath every few hours if possible, I finished a big bottle of ‘man gam yao’ in a week. Can you imagine? Normally the ‘man gam yao’ in my house can lasts for years!! Anyway, all these doesn’t really help as it got worst. Seen 2 doctors, doesn’t really help and finally decided to go to the specialist, yes a skin specialist.

My first impression when I saw the doctor was, oh man, this guy looks like Samuel Hui Koon-kit’s (许冠杰) BROTHER… Ricky Hui Koon Ying (许冠英). hehe..The height, the hair style, the face.. hehehe.. anyway, back to the rashes, he gave me some medicine and some cream to apply and told me to take the medicine 3 times a day. There are 2 types of medicine, morning and afternoon one will make me feel sleepy and the night one will not. Immediately I told the doctor that I need to work and asked whether he could give me meds which don’t caused sleepiness, then he said ok.

When I got my medicine, I noticed that the morning and afternoon meds had now changed to morning and night, hmmm, morning eat liao still feel sleepy wat… well, guess I don’t have much choice though…

And there it goes, I started to feel sleepy everyday at work. First, I can’t really sleep well at night cos of the itchiness and constant waking up, and Secondly, the sleepy pills. I mean, even without the sleepy pills I will also feel sleepy d, but now with the sleepy pills, it’s even worst!! Everyday after breakfast, after I took the pills, my eyes started to shut automatically and I looked like a drug addict, constantly yawning!!

~sigh.. I decided to do something cos I can’t be like this at work!! How am I suppose to work in this condition, right? So one day, I decided to do a little bit experiment, which is to take coffee first, then only take the sleepy pills. I wanted to see if the coffee can successfully win over the sleepy pills or not!!

What do you think? Coffee wins or sleepy pills wins? Well, sleepy pills wins lar.. ~sigh.. still feeling very very sleepy…

p/s: rashes got under control after taking the meds.. under control only, not 100% cured….

I remembered when I was 18 yrs old, I went to do the blood test for the very first time at BP Lab. I don’t remember what I tested for but I was given a card which indicate what blood group I belongs to. And I remembered it was NEGATIVE. But when I saw my results, my blood group became POSITIVE!! Blood group will change one meh?

Due to that, I requested to see the doctor and I had to pay RM 15 for a 3 minutes talk with him. Anyway, I went in and asked him about this blood group thingy, and here’s how our conversation like..

D ~ Doctor, J ~ me
J: Doctor, I remembered my blood group was negative, how come now becomes positive? blood group will change one meh?
D: Changed? Is it? I don’t know…
J: But it’s not possible right?
D: Shouldn’t change lor..
J: but how come different?
D: ……… (I think he don’t know how to answer me.. so he said this..) but it’s changing to a better one mar..
J: positive is better?
D: ya, negative very very few ppl got…so positive is better….
J:….

and yes, I had to pay another RM 15 for this short chat with him. So when I got back home, I found my previous blood test results which I did two yrs ago and it’s stated there positive as well. I decided to go find my BP Lab card (or else I think I can’t sleep.. hehe…) and finally when I found the card, it’s stated there POSITIVE!!!

hahahhhhaa….it seems like I remembered WRONGLY!! I am positive all the while!! hahahahahahahahah…

Anyway, I hate headache cos I can’t think when I have headache. Of cos I can take panadol/painkiller to get rid of the headache but I hate taking these pills. FL suggested to take 100 plus, warm 100 plus. So I brought a can of 100 plus from home to office. I doubt by drinking it just like that, it’ll cure my headache. Therefore I google a bit and I found the 100 plus remedy. Apparently we can’t just drink like that, we have to mix the 100 plus with water, with the ratio of 1:2. 1 cup of 100 plus with 2 cups of water.

I mixed and it taste quite ok also. It didn’t cure immediately but then it does gradually get rid of my headache!! Having this is definitely better than taking those pills right?

You should try this when you have headache next time.. it’s cheap, it works and most importantly, it’s more healthy than taking the panadol/painkillers.

Dragon Fruit + Lemon Enzyme (龙珠果)
(sorry, hand a bit shaky when took the pic with my hp.. hehe..)
dragon fruit enzyme prevent aging..

a closer look

These are a bit different from the one that I made for my aunt last time. The formula is still the same, (one layer of fruits, one layer of lemon, one layer of sugar..) just that my aunt cut the fruits into very small pieces. Why cut into small pieces? Cos we’re not going to just drink the liquid but we will eat the fruits as well. Then we no need to sieve, no need to think what to do with the leftovers fruits..Good also hor.. we just swallow everything into our stomach.. hehe..

Papaya + Lemon Enzyme (木瓜）
good for the stomach..

a closer look

Longan + Beetroot + Lemon
this is new!! got combination some  more..
good for the liver and lung leh..

a closer look

Besides these, she also made pineapple + lemon enzyme, and I love the taste of the pineapple enzyme. Nice!! sweet and sour.. The pineapple enzyme is good to reduce cholesterol, one to two table spoon every night. The dragon fruit and longan one I have not taste yet, so no comment.. as for the papaya + lemon.. well..

this is the papaya..
if you to make this, you have to buy those really green papaya..
if you buy those ripe papaya, your enzyme will end up very ‘lam bek bek’, very geli..
hehe it won’ t be one piece one piece like this..

and the lemon..
how it taste? SOUR!! VERY SOUR!! hehee…
I still prefer the pineapple one…

Why said so? Last week I was on mc for 2 days, Thursday and Friday. You probably will say, wah, so nice? can have a long weekend… well, yes and no, at first I thought so too. Finally I can sleep and do nothing at home for so many days.. how nice.. Thursday passed quickly, basically I sleep for the whole day, the medicine given by the doctor makes me feel sleepy and tired. On Friday, I got better and I started to surf the net a little bit, do some house chores and that’s when I feel a bit boring, time crawls like snail. During the weekend I stayed at home as well cos my flu wasn’t 100% cured yet. And yes, it was sooo boring….

I asked myself? Didn’t I like weekend a lot? Why I wished this weekend ends faster? Well, I guess when we’re working, weekends to us are precious, but if we’re not working, weekends to us is like nothing, right?

Does that mean I won’t complaint about work anymore? hahahaha, of cos not!!!

3 weeks old apple fruit enzyme

First I use a big sieve to sieve the big slices of apple and lemon

After that, I use a small sieve to sieve the apple enzyme again, to get liquid only

this is what I get from my big bottle of apple fruit enzyme

I should have use brown sugar instead of dark sugar,
then my enzyme will looks better (lighter in color)

some said the leftover fruits can be used to make jams (blend it),
or as body exfoliator or as fertilizer for the soil.
I decided to keep it and used it for my next batch of garbage enzyme.

According to what I read from magazines/Internet, take one tablespoon of enzyme and mixed with water. You can drink it before or after your meal. How does it taste? Actually it taste exactly like how it smells, a little bit of apple, and lemon … sour, and taste a little bit like wine. I think I did not put enough sugar as it is not sweet at all, a bit more sugar will taste better.

Enzymes are an amazing type of protein that provides energy and reactivates our cells. Drink everyday can help to detox our body and keep us healthy. Oh ya, by the way, my aunt told me her dragon fruit enzyme taste great, I guess dragon fruit taste better than apple fruit enzyme. Luckily I love sour stuff so to me, the taste of apple enzyme still acceptable. i tried adding ribena to my apple enzyme, hehe, and it taste great too! :p

You should really try it out yourself.. The process of making it, till you get the final result. It’s really an experience.

I’m not sure is it the way I did it wrong or wat, the juice from the fruits did not cover the upper most level. Perhaps apple don’t have much juice? hehe.. I tried to push it down but the the apple is still hard and I can’t really push them down. I was afraid the uncovered part will grow mold so I used 2 clean and dry spoon to stir it. I scoop the bottom part up and push the top part down.

I did see some white color stuff on top of my enzyme. According to the enzyme book I read from the Popular book store (too expensive, so i ended up reading it there, hehe…), the white color thing is harmless, but BEWARE, if you see black color one? that means your enzyme is spoiled and cannot consume anymore. So take note!!

2 more weeks to go..excited.. excited!!

Here’s the garbage enzyme formula:-
1kg Black/Brown Sugar
3Kg Kitchen waste (Fruits skin/vege/pandan leaves, don’t use meat, else it will be very smelly!!)
10 litre of water

If you have more kitchen waste, say 6kg, then you should use 2kg of black sugar and 20 litre of water. Just calculate accordingly.

any air tight plastic container/bottles will do

Black Sugar

My aunt’s friend got this from a fruits seller in the market. we can’t possibly eat so much fruits lar!! hehe..

let’s see how heavy is this.. it’s 12.5kg!!

We will need 10 litre of water for every 3kg of kitchen waste, therefore, our 12.5kg will need about 40 litre water and 4kg of black sugar.

First, dilute black sugar (4kg) in water (40 litre), then add in all the kitchen waste/fruits skin. If you want it to smell better, add in more lemon/orange peels and pandan leaves. You can add in anything you want, as long as it’s vege and fruits. Preferably no meat cos it will be very smelly.

cut the fruits/skin into small pieces

Close it tight, place at cool, dry and well ventilated area and avoid direct sunlight. Keep it for at least 3 months (the longer the better, it will not expired) and remember to open daily to release gases for the first month.

After 3 months, filter and remove the residue. You can reuse the residue again for a new batch of production by adding fresh garbage or you can buried the residue in the ground as a fertilizer.

These garbage enzyme are ready for use!!

The garbage enzyme should be in brown color, if it turned black, add in the same amount of sugar and start the fermentation process all over again. You may encounter white, brown, and black layer (or even worms) on top of the enzyme during the fermentation process. Do not worry, leave it as it is and the chemical reaction will resolve them naturally.

So how useful is the garbage enzyme? Well well well…When you mop the floor, add a small cap of enzyme into the water and you will see a lot of dirt comes off. You can also used it to wash the toilet bowl and trust me, it will be sparkling clean!! Add some enzyme into your glass cleaner and your mirror will be shiny and clean.

It’s best to use on oily stuff, i used to have a hard time cleaning the kitchen’s hood cover (the one that filter the oil) but the enzyme makes my life easier. I tried soaking the cover into water with detergent and enzyme, gently rub the cover and tah-dah, no more oily cover!

The garbage enzyme is really an excellent cleaning tool. You can also add some into your shampoo or body shampoo or whatever you can think of. Well, I really can’t think of a reason why you should not make the garbage enzyme.

Let us all save the earth through garbage enzyme!!
