One is 21 and still needs mommy so what the other 16 and thinks he doesn't,  some what . Most of my family is dead and the rest are not here not any where near. I don't  do welfare but it's none of my business to those that do. I've worked hard. It's not been easy but what I have or use I own Its paid for. I don't get it if I don;t have the money.I don't borrow of ask for favors. No judgement on others that do it's just me. Although many ask me I helped a many in my time. And I live 45 minutes away from work. 

So now I set the stage. Here is what happen My truck and car blow it's engine.All in the same few weeks.While that was happening I was spending money on parts and we put waters pumps in and many other thing on it. Making me miss work because we all know they always!!,.  mess up on the way to work in remote areas and at 5:00 in the morning.

Now it all seems bad  but I'm happy and sing at work everyone says why and how?? Because don't you see someone loves me and cares. I mean she does. I never realized it before but but but  I've been living a guarded live. Afraid to trust and afraid because my whole life people have wanted things from me. And a host of things besides  And I was raised you work hard and you can do anything your self.

But I felt like shouting to the roof tops. If anyone does know her just give her a kiss:) :) :) :). peace out. 

What about Radish



So a customer comes in and asked us to juice radishes.

 I  didn't ask why but I was very curious . 

So i found some info. from living strong and a few other places, now he could be juicing

 it for any thing. But we will pretend it is for health.

WHAT IS THE NUTRITIONAL VALUE OF radish


Radishes do not usually receive much attention unless they are added to a salad or side dish. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report that there are five main types of radishes, but they are all cruciferous vegetables and belong to the mustard family. When you take a look at the nutritional value of a radish, you may want to add them to your diet as more than a garnish. Their health benefits make them an excellent snack or side dish.

VITAMIN C

The Centers for Disease Control report that 1 cup of radishes provides approximately 1/3 of the recommended daily allowance of vitamin C. An antioxidant, vitamin C also helps with brain function, the transport of fat within the body and cholesterol metabolism, according to the Linus Pauling Institute in Oregon. Since the body cannot produce vitamin C, we must be sure to get what we need through our food intake, and radishes can help with that.

INDOLE-3-CARBINOL

Certain members of the cruciferous vegetable family, such as radishes, produce a compound called Indole-3-carbinol (I3C). A study done at the University of Texas shows that I3C protects against cancers, especially those related to hormonal activity, such as cervical and breast cancer. The study also states that I3C exhibits hepatoprotective activity, which means that it protects the liver and helps with the detoxification of the body.

SELENIUM

Selenium is an element needed for many body processes. It helps with thyroid function and hormoneregulation, contains anticancer and antioxidant properties, and can help prevent arthritis, according to several studies reported by the National Institutes of Health Office of Dietary Supplements. Radishes are an excellent source of selenium.

ADDITIONAL BENEFITS

For the dieter, radishes contain high amounts of water and fiber and low levels of sodium and carbs. In addition, 1 cup of radishes has only 20 calories and 4 g of carbohydrates. A 1-cup serving also provides almost as much potassium (270 mg) as you would find in a banana. Riboflavin, calcium, magnesium and folate help to round out the exceptional nutrition packed into a radish. Add some to a salad or eat them as a snack, and think about the health benefits you are providing your body.

Radishes May Prove to Be Acne’s Worst Nightmare

Confession: I positively hate acne. While my face only bears the most subtle of scars, in my mind the red pimply warzone that covered it back in high school is still fresh, clear and just begging to be popped.
ClearasilFace washes. Acidic astringents. Creams. Prescription antibiotics. I tried them all in my teenage years, and ultimately the one that worked best was the least acceptable: Time.
So it is with some degree of satisfaction today that I can tell you radishes could soon prove to be the magic bullet that will save today's acne sufferers from the emotional angst that so gripped myself and others in high school halls many years ago.
The key to this potential acne cure is the bacteria Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes). All of our faces are teeming with this usually benign bacteria, but when a pore becomes clogged, watchout. The clog causes P. acnes to attack skin cells, at which point the body responds in kind with inflammation and white blood cells. Oh, and then a pimple forms.
Previous acne treatments would attempt to kill the bacteria, but that could lead to resistance and ultimately does not address chronic acne . So, researchers and some mice hit the lab and that's where the radishes come in.
[T]he team tried a different approach: targeting a protein called CAMP, which is used by various bacteria to kill host cells. The team found a CAMP gene in the DNA sequence of P. acnes, which coded for a protein that killed cells in sebaceous glands and triggered inflammation.
The team put the gene into young daikon radish plants, which duly made the protein. They then sprayed tiny amounts of the ground-up leaves into the noses of mice, which caused the mice to make antibodies to CAMP.
The team harvested the antibodies and added them to a colony of P. acnes in a dish, where the antibodies bound to the CAMP made by the bacteria and prevented its effects. When these bacteria were put in the skin of a mouse's ear, they elicited much less inflammation than ordinary P. acnes.
The whole operation leaves the bacteria alive and completely able to complete their normal face-saving duties. And, because the treatment is so targeted, any other bacteria on your face that are supposed to be there aren't hindered in the slightest. Everybody wins! Except pimples, which should die painfully in a radish heat fire. [New Scientist]
