Lychee – Litchi Nutrients and Benefits

March14

Lychee Litchi Laichi LichuLychee is a fruit and it comes from an Evergreen Tropical and Subtropical Tree that is mainly found in Asia, Mexico, or South Africa. Lychees are also called Litchi, Laichi, and Lichu. Lychee tree produces beautiful flowers that can be either yellowish white or greenish white. Lychee fruit smells good and tastes sweet. It has a rough and reddish shell that is not edible and can be removed easily. Inside of the Lychee people say there is a Poisonous  seed that looks like a buckeye nut. People around the world like to enjoy Lychees in many different kinds of Desserts. People like to enjoy Lychee fruits not only for their good smell and sweet taste, but also because of the high amount of Vitamin C. In about one cup of Raw Lychees people get 226% of Vitamin C, now that is very nice :) but becareful, many candies that are made out of Lychee fruits are artificially flavored or contain high amounts of High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS – a very deadly ingredient). Vitamin C extremely supports and improves your immune system, but HFCS (High Fructose Corn Syrup) extremely destroys your immune system, and just because the commercials try to make you believe that since HFCS is from “Natural” corn does NOT mean that it’s healthy. You see, they used natural products to make deadly products just so they could make the foods last longer on the shelves of the grocery stores. So, we recommend that you check out the ingredient list before buying Lychee candy, instead try finding Raw or Dried Lychees without any added poison. The Nutrients in about one cup or 190 grams of Raw Litchis or Lychees are: Continue Reading »

Coffee Bean Nutrients, Benefits or Dangers

February13

Coffee BeansThe regular Coffee that people drink today comes from the Coffee Bean, and that Coffee Bean comes from a little red or purple fruit, and that little fruit comes from the Coffee Tree Plant. This Coffee Tree can be anywhere from fifteen to thirty feet high. Depending on the Coffee Plant’s type and region the Coffee Tree could keep on producing the fruits for up to twenty years. As far as we all know there are ten types of Coffee Plant Species. Today there are two most popular coffee bean types, the Arabica Coffee Bean and the Robusta Coffee Bean. The Arabica Coffee Beans makes it more possible for people to produce higher quality coffee. After Doing some research and talking to some people I noticed that some people blame the sugar in coffee and some people blame caffeine in coffee. People who blamed the sugar, they said that sugar is what makes you sick and addicted (and that is a fact, because sugar is a legal and lethal drug). Other people blamed coffee for being sick and addicted because they think that caffeine is addictive and bad for you. I’d say if coffee and caffeine is so bad for you, then why would the Indians call the Coffee bean a “Seed of Life”? I believe that both the sugar and the coffee are bad for you. Why? Because look at the evidence around you, talk to people, and do some more research on these topics and you’ll see how people are complaining about sugar and coffee, sometimes just sugar or just coffee, and sometimes both at the same time. I’m a witness too of the people related to me and not related to me that as soon as they drink coffee they get bad headaches and can’t fall asleep at night for a long time after having a coffee at noon. I personally love the coffee smell, but I don’t drink it for some reason, I’m just more interested in tea without caffeine instead. I do like coffee and cacao sweets, but that’s about it, maybe because I’m addicted to sugar a little, maybe, because sometimes I could be without sweets for a long period of time and I don’t feel any withdrawal symptoms. Well, like many people already told you and me that everything or “almost” everything can be ok for you to eat or drink as long as you have it in the right amounts at the right times.
The Nutrients of two tea spoons of Instant, Regular, Powder Coffee are:
- Vitamin B3, Niacin
- Choline
- Calcium
- Magnesium
- Phosphorus
- Potassium
- Manganese

- Omega 3 Fatty Acids
- Omega 6 Fatty Acids
