We all think eating fruits, means just buying fruits and cutting and popping them into our mouths. It's not as easy as you think. It's important to know how and WHEN to eat.
What is the correct way of eatting fruits?
It means not eating fruits after your meals! Fruits should be eaten on an
empty stomach!
If you eat fruit like that it will play a major role to detoxify your system, supplying you with a great deal of energy for weigh loss and other life activities.
FRUIT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FOOD! Let's say you eat two slices of bread and then a slice of fruit. The slice of fruit is ready to go straight through the system into the intestines, but is prevented from doing so.
In the meantime the whole meal rots and ferments and turns to acid. The minute the fruit comes in contact with the food in the stomach and digestive juices, the entire mass of food begins to spoil.....
So please eat your fruits on an EMPTY STOMACH or before your meals! You have heard of people complaining - every time I eat watermelon I burp, when I eat during my meal my stomach bloats up, when I eat a banana I feel like running to the toilet, etc. --actually all this will not arise if you eat the fruit on an empty stomach. The fruit mixes with the putrefying other food and produces gas and hense you will bloat.
Graying hair,
balding,
nervous outburst, and
dark circles under the eyes -- all these will NOT happen if you take fruits on an empty stomach!
There is no such thing as some fruits, like orange and lemon are acidic, because all fruits become alkaline in our body, according to Dr. Herbert Shelton who did research on this matter. If you have mastered the correct way of eating fruits, you have the SECRET of beauty, longevity, health, energy, happiness and normal weight.
When you need to drink fruit juice - drink
fresh fruit juice, NOT from the cans. Don't even drink juice that has been heated up. Don't eat cooked fruits because you don't get the nutrients at all. You only get to taste. Cooking destroys all the vitamins.But eating a whole fruit is better than drinking juice. If you should drink juice, drink it mouthful by mouthful slowly, because you must let it mix with your saliva before swallowing it. You can go on a 3-day fruit fast to cleanse you body. Just eat fruits and drink fruit juice throughout the 3 days and you will be surprised when your friends tell you how radiant you look!

Drinking cold water after a meal = CANCER! Can you believe this?? For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you! It is nice to have a cold cup of drink after a meal. However the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down digestion. Once this 'sludge' reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. Very soon this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.

Roberts Creek has always been my "Happy Place". My grandparents had a small cottage there near the beach and this is "our" beach! We would spend our two weeks vacation there with Gram and Grampop every summer from when I was about 9 years old until a couple of years after I graduated from high school. They sold the place and moved to Haney, B.C. when Gram's sister was widowed and became ill. But the memories of this place and of my two cousins, Pene and Poppe and aunt and uncle and all the many friends we made up there are forever imbedded in my mind. 
Typical of the rocks found on the beach!
The beach is very rocky, but we made a lot of use of the sandbar when the tide was out.
Here I am sitting on one of the big rocks out front of Gram and Grampop's place looking north. You can tell by the look on my face that this IS indeed my special "Happy Place" on earth.
Just a little to the left of me in this picture is Gull Island seen in the picture to the left. It is, I was told, where the Sea Gulls have their young. The only way to get up to Roberts Creek is by boat. But that is all I will say about it. Already too many people have discovered it and it is not the private beach it once was when we used to go there.
