A Simple Food That Has Higher Vitamin C Than an Orange (w/ How to Cook It) [Health Series]

One of the food that has higher Vitamin C than Orange is Cauliflower. Yes, you read it right, Cauliflower.
While eating one medium sized orange gives you 70mg dose of Vitamin C, eating a small head of cauliflower gives you a 127.7 mg dose of vitamin C, plus 5 grams of fiber and 5 grams of protein. [1] [2]

Cauliflower

Health Benefits of Cauliflower:

1. Nutritional
Cauliflower also contains vitamins B1 (thiamine), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (niacin), B5 (pantothenic acid), B6 (pyridoxine) and B9 (folic acid). It contains omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin K. It serves as a good source of proteins, phosphorus and potassium. Cauliflower is a very good sourceof vitamin C and manganese, which are both powerful antioxidants.

How to Stay “Young and Beautiful” For Women? [Health Series]

Stay Young & Beautiful

Firstly, we will talk about women and then in the another writing we will talk about men. 
I believe that both writing is very good to be read by both men or women since we discuss it from men and women's point of view.


Disclaimer: Eventhough the writer is a man, the writer is trying to his best to share his knowledge and experience in this writing. Enjoy! ^^






Credit:

Most of the knowledge in this writing is given by this really informative and awesome book:
Venus on Fire, Mars on Ice: Hormonal Balance - The Key to Life, Love and Energy 


The Main Idea:

One of the good way for women to stay young and beautiful are to give and receive love.

When women give love to and help others, their level of oxytocin hormone will raise up. Oxytocin is really a great hormone for women. These are the benefits of Oxytocin for a woman: [1]
  1. Oxytocin makes a woman feels happier
  2. Oxytocin helps a woman stays young  (Every woman wants to stay young, right? lol)
  3. Oxytocin helps a woman in shape or slim (@women: Yes, it’s true that you can stay in shape.)  
We need to know that receiving love is very important in women (@women: Agree, right?). Receiving love can increase women’s oxytocin level too. One of the way for the women to receive love is to be loved and feel special. [2]
