Giving up wine



Giving Up Wine
Visit Us @ www.MumbaiHangOut.OrgVisit Us @ www.MumbaiHangOut.Org



I was walking down the street when I was
accosted
 by a particularly dirty and shabby-looking
homeless woman who asked me for a couple of
dollars for dinner.

I took out my wallet, got out ten dollars and
asked,
'If I give you this money, will you buy wine with
it instead of dinner?'

'No, I had to stop drinking years ago', the
homeless woman told me.

'Will you use it to go shopping instead of buying
food?' I asked.

'No, I don't waste time shopping,' the homeless
woman said. 'I need to spend all my time trying
to stay alive.'

'Will you spend this on a beauty salon instead of
food?' I asked.

'Are you NUTS!' replied the homeless woman.
I haven't had my hair done in 20 years!'

'Well, I said, 'I'm not going to give you the
money. Instead, I'm going to take you out for
dinner with my husband and me tonight.'

The homeless Woman was shocked. 'Won't your
 husband be furious with you for doing that? I know
I'm dirty, and I probably smell pretty disgusting.'

I said, 'That's okay. It's important for him to see
what a woman looks like after she has given up
shopping, hair appointments, and wine.'

Tulsi can help keep swine flu away

Tulsi can help keep swine flu away: Ayurvedic experts

Lucknow, May 27: Wonder herb Tulsi can not only keep the dreaded swine flu at bay but also help in fast recovery of an afflicted person, Ayurvedic
practitioners claim.

"The anti-flu property of Tulsi has been discovered by medical experts across the world quite recently. Tulsi improves the body's overall defence

mechanism including its ability to fight viral diseases. It was successfully used in combating Japanese Encephalitis and the same theory applies to swine flu," Dr U K Tiwari, a herbal medicine practitioner says.


Apart from acting as a preventive medicine in case of swine flu, Tulsi can help the patient recover faster.


"Even when a person has already contracted swine flu, Tulsi can help in speeding up the recovery process and also help in strengthening the immune

system of the body," he claims.


Dr Bhupesh Patel, a lecturer at Gujarat Ayurved University, Jamnagar is also of the view that Tulsi can play an important role in controlling swine flu.


"Tulsi can control swine flu and it should be taken in fresh form. Juice or paste of at least 20-25 medium sized leaves should be consumed twice a

day on an empty stomach."


This increases the resistance of the body and, thereby, reduces the chances of inviting swine flu," believes Patel.
