A good way to balance your body against environmental conditions can be with food. Then I have a tip to share with you! In summer, certain vegetables can help cool the body and support your health naturally. Water spinach is known as the “king” of summer. It’s rich in vitamins A and C, iron, and antioxidants that help detox the liver and cool the body. Choose organic ones with small, light green stems that aren’t overly shiny. Malabar spinach is like a “miracle veggie” for kids. Packed with vitamin C, B, fiber, and carotene, it’s great for digestion, immunity, and cooling the liver. It’s also rarely sprayed with chemicals due to its natural resistance to pests. Gotu kola (pennywort) is excellent for cooling and detoxing. Often used in smoothies or soups, it helps reduce fever, inflammation, and supports circulation. Oregano isn’t just a spice, it’s used in traditional medicine to ease colds, reduce inflammation, and relieve fever.
The amusement airplane just got permission for a landing with the joke of the day, so we’d better not miss it. This one’s called “Chances are Good.”
A policeman gave a speeding ticket to a couple in the morning. When he saw them speeding later that evening, he could not believe it. He pulled them over a second time:
“Didn’t I just give you a speeding ticket earlier today?”
“I tried to tell him to slow down, officer.”
“But officer, what are the chances of getting two speeding tickets in one day?”
“Probably quite low.”
“You see honey?! He agrees with me.”
