Super food?

For quite a bit, my mum's been making me some fruit + water mixture that she told me lowers blood pressure and such. Because it tastes good, I've been consuming it occasionally since last year. I read the labels, and turns out the mysterious red goo I've been consuming is called "Mulberry Vinagar". Vinegar is something I already have ideas of what it is, but mulberry? First time I saw such a word. So it's up to Google to answer my questions.

Mulberry (also the name of a tech company which I don't have any idea does what) is a fruit. According to several sites, it is not just a normal fruit. Like an apple, it's a SUPER fruit. It aids in digestion, regulates blood cholesterol levels, helps treat diabetes, lowers blood pressure, people consume it after surgery to heal faster, and pregnant woman drink it after delivery etc etc. I remember there were still benefits like it being rich in a large varieties of vitamins that boosts metabolism and such, but I can't remember all of them.

So, yesterday, my mum bought a tank (exaggerating here) of it, and I started drinking it twice per day. Hopefully, it helps in my weight loss, since its benefits seems to do that as well.

Super food number two is the apple (which ironically, is the name of yet another tech company we ALL happen to know). The adage "An apple per day keeps the doctor away" is no mystery to most of us (One iPad per day sounds awesome). Thing is, I've been reading up on apples' benefits because I've been consuming it in place of other snacks like potato chips, chocolates and all the junk food you can think of.

Apple peels or as we call it, the apple skin, is extremely beneficial to the health of the everyday man. It has weight loss properties imbued within, can lower cholesterol, and is a good source of insoluble fibre which will send you to the toilet everyday for your regular dump. The flesh is a good source of Vitamin C, and contains some weird chemical (forgot the name) that can make you feel full, even though 95kcal worth of food usually can't do that. People like me, who have used apples to substitute my meals and snacks, can effectively tell you that it's extremely useful if you're trying to lose off the fats you've built up.

So yeah, the two super food above should help me more and more in my weight loss crusade. It's been tough recently, but it's time to start gorging down the fruits and reducing the fats.
