 Carrots are sweeter when cooked and maintain their beta-carotene
content even after cooking.
 APRICOT:Consumption of apricots maintains vision in good condition
and gives sparkle and beauty to the eyes that are characteristic of
good health.This is not due exclusively to the action of Provitamin

wishing to increase resistance against infections.
 Kiwi:Increases resistance and prevents anaemia

Kiwis keep very well in refrigerator for weeks or even months.They are
an excellent source of Vit C and iron during winter months.

containing high levels of essential fatty acids,Vit B6 and trace elements
such as zinc ,copper,manganese.

walnuts and other oil bearing nuts increases.

plasma triglyceride level.It is one of the richest in high value nutritional
fats,proteins,Vit-E,B6,Iron as well as vegetable fibre.

Strawberry:The antioxidant action of strawberries neutralizes the so called

free radicals that oxidizes lipoproteins.This oxidation process if not
checked results in cholesterol deposits on arterial walls and
arterioschlerosis.Strawberries are particularly appropriate for those working
to improve blood circulation in the arteries.

Lemon:Cleanses and regenerates the blood.

Red Beet:Its red juice combat anaemia.

Drinking 50-100 ml of raw,freshly prepared beet juice before meals twice
