Home colon cleansing
Avoid this: 'Many people do it for detoxification but I wouldn't recommend it because there are no recognisable benefits. Detoxification takes place largely in the liver and kidneys, the colon is purely a digestive track,' said Dr Chua Bee Hong, general practitioner at Bishan Family Doctors.
The alternatives: Dr Chua said it is more important to develop a healthy diet consisting of a rich supply of antioxidants normally found in fresh fruits and vegetables as even with detoxification, toxins still remain in our bodies.

Benefits of failure?
....... So why do I talk about the benefits of failure?
Simply because failure meant a stripping away of the inessential.
I stopped pretending to myself that I was anything other than what I was, and began to direct all my energy into finishing the only work that mattered to me.
Had I really succeeded at anything else, I might never have found the determination to succeed in the one arena I believed I truly belonged.
I was set free, because my greatest fear had already been realised, and I was still alive, and I still had a daughter whom I adored, and I had an old typewriter and a big idea.
And so rock bottom became the solid foundation on which I rebuilt my life.
--- by J.K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter novels, who was principal speaker at Harvard University's 357th Commencement on June 5 2008. The above was a small part of her speech on that day.

3 kinds of independence key to happy ageing
The following letter by Mr. Murali Sharma to the Forum of the Straits Times was published on 16 June 2008. I find that this letter is worth sharing.
I REFER to last Friday's article, 'Longer lives, but ill health in last decade'. I agree wholeheartedly with National University of Singapore lecturer Angelique Chan that 'the number of years an older person remains healthy needs to increase'.
One of the most important criteria for happy ageing is that one should be independent: financially, socially and physically. While financial independence may be beyond the reach of some, physical health can make up for some of the financial lack.
A person who is healthy will require fewer major medical treatments, thus reducing the demands on his pocket. But one cannot rule out illnesses that will incapacitate a person and make him housebound for a while.
When a person falls ill for a short while, he may get the sympathy of his family, who will be happy to help him. But if he is immobile for a long time, and they have to foot his medical bills, family relations and unity may be strained. So it is important for all of us to keep healthy from a young age.
Old-age disability does not happen suddenly. It is the cumulative result of years of body abuse in which a person leads an unhealthy lifestyle.
It is also terrible to be alone in old age, with no family or friends. So it is important to build up support groups of friends. They are often available through religious organisations, community centres and other social groups. A person needs to be active in building up his social circle from young.
There is no substitute to leading a healthy life throughout one's life. This can be done through exercise, healthy eating, remaining connected and taking an interest in what is going on in the world. One must remain relevant to one's community or else see one's social circle shrinking.
Such a healthy life would go a long way in ensuring that the olden years are golden - to be enjoyed and not suffered.

My Sleep Monitor for today (starting on 071101):
Total sleep to day = 6 hours 0 minutes
Medical Note:
(1) Woke up at about 0438 hours, Felt sick and “heaty”. The cause is probably insufficient sleep in the past week and poor diet in the last two days including MM birthday dinner and the dinner with QCL last night. So took two Panado pills.
(2) Yesterday, I started to have stuffy nose intermittently. I seldom have blocked nose or stuffy nose due my CRON practice.
(3) At about 0650 hours of 080616, my right nose bled with fresh blood. It is another sign of ‘heatiness’. So need to sleep more and take more water.
(4) At about 1340 hr, I took another two Panado pills for cold relief.

Gout and higher risk of heart disease mortality [Ref: H08F05]
Gout tied to higher risk of heart disease mortality. ... noted Krishnan, an assistant professor at Stanford University School of Medicine. ...
Gout is a very painful form of arthritis that causes the joints to periodically become swollen, red and hot - most often affecting the big toe, though it also strikes the feet, ankles, knees, hands and wrists.
Gout arises when uric acid crystals build up in the joints.
The body produces uric acid when it breaks down purines - substances found naturally in the body, but also in certain foods, like organ meats, anchovies, mushrooms and some seafood, such as herring and mackerel.
Some research has linked high uric acid levels in the body to a higher risk of cardiovascular trouble. Similarly, studies have found that men with gout have higher-than-average rates of heart attack and angina - chest pain caused by insufficient blood flow to the heart.
