What liquid is most harmful to human bones Coca-Cola lemon juice vinegar water milk tomato juice ice tea?

I've seen studies that show colas to be most harmful to the bones because they take calcium from the bones and do many other things to a person's body (too much sugar, sodium and the coloring in colas can cause the teeth to yellow). Lemon juice doesn't hurt your bones, but it will wear the enamel on your teeth if you take it straight. Vinegar has many health benefits, especially if it is apple cider vinegar (organic and unfiltered). Water is good for you, nothing harmful there unless it is city water :) - you will want to drink filtered water (not bottled). Milk has been proven to strengthen bones, but I prefer soy milk to cows milk for it's health benefits. I can always take a calcium supplement. Tomato juice is a good source of licopene. Ice tea will discolor your teeth if you don't brush after drinking it, but I know of no study to prove it hurts your bones.


Can you put extra virgin olive oil in your eyes?

Sadly, I am an expert. lol. When I have had conjunctivitus (5 times or so in my lifetime) I have always taken a q-tip (separate q-top for each eye) and gone around the rim of my eyelid with a dab of olive oil (preferabley with a little bit of argan oil mixed in) because it helps with the inflammation very much.. When you do this, you can also bring the qtip to the corner of your eyes where most of the secretions would be coming out normally. Your vision will look blurry but that's normal. It does help a lot! Another thing I do is make sure to take Cod Liver oil capsules (great for eye health and immune support) supplement + Vitamin D3 (immune support), and if you have it Licopene supplement (or tomato paste orally). Other things that help with this are rinsing your eyes half closed in the shower every day after waking, cold compresses and changing your pillow case (and only sleeping on your back). Continuously wash your hands and be careful not to touch your eyes. Use fresh makeup applicator with each application of makeup (seperate applicators for both eyes as well) if you must wear makeup. Allergy Eyedrops are okay but will burn if you apply them directly after the olive oil...Best to wait a little while before doing so. I have found that eating a little! bit of sage, or drinking sage tea, a little while before bed can help with the redness in your eyes because it helps the body use oxygen correctly.


Il pomodoro è un frutto?

Un pomodoro è un frutto, si scrive così intanto..Il pomodoro (Solanum lycopersicum, L. 1753 - identificato secondo il regolamento fitosanitario internazionale Lycopersicon esculentum (L.) Karsten ex Farw. (cfr. classificazione botanica), della famiglia delle Solanaceae, è una pianta annuale i cui frutti - bacche plurisperme dal caratteristico colore rosso - sono alla base di molti piatti della cucina italiana. Tutte le parti verdi sono tossiche, in quanto contengono solanina, un glicoalcaloide steroidale, che non viene eliminato nemmeno per mezzo dei processi di cottura. Il frutto maturo è invece ricco di principi nutritivi seppure a basso contenuto calorico, ed è comunemente utilizzato a scopi alimentari, in insalata o come ingrediente nella preparazione di salse e piatti cotti, come la pizza. Il succo o le centrifughe di pomodoro, assunti come bevanda rendono disponibile all'organismo una quantità significativa di licopene, un antiossidante che si ritiene possa svolgere una certa funzione protettiva rispetto al rischio di tumori alla prostata. Il succo di pomodoro costituisce anche, con l'aggiunta di vodka, tabasco, limone, sale e pepe, la base di un cocktail solitamente servito come aperitivo e noto come Bloody Mary (viene talora chiamata Virgin Mary la versione analcolica dello stesso cocktail, che si riduce a succo di pomodoro condito come sopra).
