Health tips.

Ancient Indian health tips....

  1. If previously taken lunch is not digested....taking dinner will be equivalent to taking poison. Hunger is one signal that shows the previous food is digested.

  2. Proper sleep cures half of the diseases.

  3. Of all the pulses, green grams are the best. It boosts immunity. All other pulses have one or more side effects.

  4. Garlic even joins broken bones.

Tailpiece.

Got up about 20' past 6, the chores and was ready by a half past 10.

Today was the wedding anniversaries of Padmakumar-Rema and Mithun-Ammu. Wished both the couples many happy returns in the morning.

A quiet Sunday.

Helped Lekha in watering the plants in the evening.
