Wny Drink Beer?


Beer, if drank in moderation, softens the temper, cheers the spirit, and promotes health.’
-Thomas Jefferson


Why drink beer?
Who ever thought there would be health benefits to drinking beer? Well, there is! Studies have revealed that beer can produce the same benefits as drinking wine. Whether you prefer ales, lagers, stout, bitter or wheat beers, studies show that one drink a day for women or up to two drinks a day for men will reduce your chances of strokes, heart and vascular disease. It’s no secret that the stroke is the 3rd leading cause of death in the U.S. and the leading cause of serious, long-term disabilities.

What’s interesting is that it was proven (New England Journal of Medicine – Nov. 1999) that those who drank one beer a week compared to those who drank one beer a day experienced no variance in reducing stroke risks. It is said that light to moderate drinkers will decrease their chances of suffering a stroke by 20%.
A researcher at the Texas Southwestern Medical Center (May 1999) reported that those who consume moderate amounts of beer (one to two a day at the most) have a 30-40% lower rate of coronary heart disease compared to those who don’t drink. Beer contains a similar amount of ‘polyphenols’ (antioxidants) as red wine and 4-5 times as many polyphenols as white wine.
Alcohol has also been attributed of its ability to increase the amount of good cholesterol (HDL) into the bloodstream as well as help to decrease blood clots.
Beer also contains vitamin B6, which prevents the build-up of amino acid called homocysteine that has been linked to heart disease. Those of us who have high levels of homocysteine are usually more prone to an early onset of heart and vascular disease. A new study performed at the TNO Nutrition and Food Research Institute in Utrecht indicates that those who drink beer had no increase in their homocysteine level but those who drank wine or liquor had an increase of up to 10%. Also noted was the fact that those who drank beer experienced a 30% increase in vitamin B6 in their blood plasma, thereby proving that beer (in moderation) is actually healthier to drink than wine and other liquor.
Did you know?
- Beer is nutritious if consumed in moderation
- That beer is fat-free and cholesterol free?
- Beer has a relaxing effect on the body thereby reducing stress.
- It can help you sleep better
- It helps prevent heart disease and improves the blood circulation
- It has proven to have positive effects on elderly people. It helps to promote blood vessel dilation, sleep, and urination.
An average beer contains the following:
0mg of cholesterol
0g of fat
13g of carbohydrate
25mg of sodium
protein, calcium, potassium, phosphorus and vitamins B, B2, and B6
Cuisine a la biere…
Beer in cooking is deeply rooted in Western Europe . Beer is incomparable as a cooking tool. With its unique flavors and versatilities is it unmatched. Due to the fact that alcohol has a much lower boiling temperature than water, it evaporates quickly while cooking your recipe and thereby only leaves the characteristic taste of the beer.
Some ways to use beer in cooking are as follows:
-Marinades for beef – both tenderizes and adds flavor.
-Used as a substitute for water in different soups and stocks – adds much more flavor to your recipes.
-Used in batters for fried foods.
-Added to gravies to spice up the taste.
-Used as a cooking base/liquid for steaming foods (sausages, shellfish, clams, etc.)
Just remember when cooking with beer, keep your beer’s primary taste in mind. Malty beers add a sweet/nutty taste while hop lagers can add a bitter/herbal flavor. Beer increases in bitterness as it reduces to use a sweeter/malty beer when cooking for long periods of time.
Now after reading all this ‘good stuff’ on beer, this isn’t to say that you should go out and get ‘boozed up’ because it’s good for you! Obviously the key, as was mentioned earlier, is moderation. Drinking in excess of these guidelines has been associated with an increased risk of several serious health ailments, such as cancer, high blood pressure, and liver disease. Be warned that drinking over moderation can lead to liver damage, dangers of drunk driving, and damage to fetuses of pregnant women who are drinking…just to name a few.

Aron,

It would be such a great loss once you’re out of this account. You have been an inspiration to all the people who surrounded you. Your presence motivated everyone to work happy at all times, because that’s who you are and I want you to continue being the happy Aron that we know.

Voice of the Customer


Subject: Voice of the Customer: One of my Glorious days during my stint as a call center agent!
The customer went out of her way to commend our very own Arnold De Vera,
a pride of Team Indiana!
 
 
This is what Karen Williams has to say:
 
I just wanted to inform you of a recent customer service call I placed with your incredible sales representative Aron.
 
My goal was to cancel a reservation due to poor planning on my behalf.
I was seeking Expedia account credit for my mistake.
Aron was able to reimburse my account swiftly and even generate a couple of giggles from me.
 
He was very personable and seemed like he genuinely cared.
Thank you Aron for helping me out!
 
Expedia just created a raving fan!
 
a.k.a.

Regrets (by Bronnie Ware)


LET US take this  perfect opportunity to be more reflective than usual. Here’s a nice article to kickstart your muni-muni moments. (Written by Bronnie Ware.)
* * *
For many years I worked in palliative care. My patients were those who had gone home to die. Some incredibly special times were shared. I was with them for the last three to twelve weeks of their lives.
People grow a lot when they are faced with their own mortality. I learnt never to underestimate someone’s capacity for growth. Some changes were phenomenal. Each experienced a variety of emotions, as expected, denial, fear, anger, remorse, more denial and eventually acceptance. Every single patient found their peace before they departed though, every one of them.
When questioned about any regrets they had or anything they would do differently, common themes surfaced again and again. Here are the most common five:
1. I wish I’d had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
This was the most common regret of all. When people realise that their life is almost over and look back clearly on it, it is easy to see how many dreams have gone unfulfilled. Most people had not honoured even a half of their dreams and had to die knowing that it was due to choices they had made, or not made.
It is very important to try and honour at least some of your dreams along the way. From the moment that you lose your health, it is too late. Health brings a freedom very few realise, until they no longer have it.

2. I wish I didn’t work so hard.
This came from every male patient that I nursed. They missed their children’s youth and their partner’s companionship. Women also spoke of this regret. But as most were from an older generation, many of the female patients had not been breadwinners. All of the men I nursed deeply regretted spending so much of their lives on the treadmill of a work existence.
By simplifying your lifestyle and making conscious choices along the way, it is possible to not need the income that you think you do. And by creating more space in your life, you become happier and more open to new opportunities, ones more suited to your new lifestyle.
3. I wish I’d had the courage to express my feelings.
Many people suppressed their feelings in order to keep peace with others. As a result, they settled for a mediocre existence and never became who they were truly capable of becoming. Many developed illnesses relating to the bitterness and resentment they carried as a result.
We cannot control the reactions of others. However, although people may initially react when you change the way you are by speaking honestly, in the end it raises the relationship to a whole new and healthier level. Either that or it releases the unhealthy relationship from your life. Either way, you win.
4. I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.
Often they would not truly realise the full benefits of old friends until their dying weeks and it was not always possible to track them down. Many had become so caught up in their own lives that they had let golden friendships slip by over the years. There were many deep regrets about not giving friendships the time and effort that they deserved. Everyone misses their friends when they are dying.
It is common for anyone in a busy lifestyle to let friendships slip. But when you are faced with your approaching death, the physical details of life fall away. People do want to get their financial affairs in order if possible. But it is not money or status that holds the true importance for them. They want to get things in order more for the benefit of those they love. Usually though, they are too ill and weary to ever manage this task. It is all comes down to love and relationships in the end. That is all that remains in the final weeks, love and relationships.
5. I wish that I had let myself be happier.
This is a surprisingly common one. Many did not realise until the end that happiness is a choice. They had stayed stuck in old patterns and habits. The so-called ‘comfort’ of familiarity overflowed into their emotions, as well as their physical lives. Fear of change had them pretending to others, and to their selves, that they were content. When deep within, they longed to laugh properly and have silliness in their life again.
When you are on your deathbed, what others think of you is a long way from your mind. How wonderful to be able to let go and smile again, long before you are dying.
Life is a choice. It is YOUR life. Choose consciously, choose wisely, choose honestly. Choose happiness.

Knowing Me Better (mga "kakatwang" bagay-bagay tungkol sa akin)


1.       Sa bahay, madalas hindi ako gumagamit ng tinidor sa pagkain. Naalala ko nung bata pa ako madalas akong  sabihan ni Nanay ng “Yung kaliwang kamay mo naka-prenda na naman…”
2.        Apat ang unan ko pag natutulog, pag nagkulang yun kahit isa, nahihirapan akong makatulog. Mas maraming unan mas masarap matulog. Pag may katabi ako, okey lang na tatlo lang ang unan ko, pang-apat yung katabi ko (lol)
3.       Pag nasa bahay ako, lagi lang akong naka-boxer at sando or lumang putting t-shirt. Kumportable ako sa ganun. Never mo rin akong mapapatulog ng nakapantalon, walking shorts, long sleeves…
4.       Hindi ako mahilig magkumot, kaya kahit na maginaw nakatitiis ako. Pag super ginaw na , saka na ako naghahagilap ng kumot at the middle of the night.
5.       Una kong ginagawa pagkauwi ko ay buksan ang TV bago ako magbihis…
6.       Hate ko ang pinakbet tilapia. Naalala ko na may isang okasyon na ang handa lang ay yang dalawang menu na yan, kahit gutom ako…never talaga akong kumain.
7.       When I was in college, nagging fan ako ni TIMMY CRUZ. Nagsusulatan kami through air mail at nagkukumstahan through a common friend from Viva films.
8.       Siyempre, public knowledge na Noranians ako hahahaha. Idol ko ang the one and only Superstar, Ms. Nora Aunor.
9.       Gustong-gusto ko ang Frosty sa Wendys, kaya kapag may nakikita akong Wendys talagang effort akong bumili kahit small frosty (P37 na ngaun)
10.   Hindi ako nag-uulit kaagad ng damit , every Friday sa school (wash day), Kapag naisuot ko na, it would take several months or next year na ulit bago ko maisuot. Namana ko yan kay Ms. Torres (college prof ko)
