Most African culture do not give inheritance to the female gender. Most time the female is chased out of her father property and left to suffer in the street. If a man has no male child, i believe staturitory marriage wil be of great advantage to the man after his demise because his female daughter could easily inherit the properties left behind. How will you feel in the afterlife seeing other people chase out your biological child out of the properties you laboured all your life? 4 Likes |

Au12589: Why are som people just 2 insultive nd calors ova simple issues dat require simple ansas. If u dnt knw, y dnt u shut d f, uck up, gosh, A question was humbly asked by som nd all e cud get was insult, Pls lets all grow up, Salt solution s a acheic means use 4 preventin conception, It works best imediately afta ejaculation, In d absence of condöm, postenun, i-pils, e.t.c, A salt solution cud b employed.1. Salt is a strong, natural antihistamine. It can be used to relieve asthma by putting it on the tongue after drinking a glass or two of water. It is as effective as an inhaler, without the toxicity. You should drink one or two glasses of water before putting salt on the tongue 2. Salt is a strong ‘anti-stress’ element for the body 3. Salt is vital for extracting excess acidity from inside the cells, particularly the brain cells. If you don’t want Alzheimer’s disease, don’t go salt-free, and don’t let them put you on diuretic medications for long! 4. Salt is vital for the kidneys to clear excess acidity and pass the acidity into the urine. Without sufficient salt in the body, the body will become increasingly acidic 5. Salt is essential in the treatment of emotional and affective disorders. Lithium is a salt substitute that is used in the treatment of depression. To prevent suffering from depression, make sure you take some salt 6. Salt is essential for preserving the serotonin and melatonin levels in the brain. When water and salt perform their natural antioxidant duties and clear the toxic waste from the body, essential amino acids, such as tryptophan and tyrosine, will not be sacrificed as chemical antioxidants. In a well- hydrated body, tryptophan is spared and gets into the brain tissue where it is used to manufacture serotonin, melatonin, and tryptamine—essential anti- depression neurotransmitters 7. Salt, in Dr Batmanghelidj’s opinion, is vital for the prevention and treatment of cancer. Cancer cells are killed by oxygen; they are anaerobic ‘organisms’. They must live in a low-oxygen environment. When the body is well hydrated and salt expands the volume of blood circulation to reach all parts of the body, the oxygen and the active and ‘motivated’ immune cells in the blood reach the cancerous tissue and destroy it. As I explained in my book on lupus, dehydration—shortage of water and salt—suppresses the immune system and its disease-fighting cells’ activity in the body 8. Salt is vital for maintaining muscle tone and strength. Lack of bladder control in those who suffer from involuntary leakage of urine could be a consequence of low salt intake. Salt is most effective in stabilizing irregular heartbeats and, contrary to the misconception that it causes high blood pressure, is actually essential for the regulation of blood pressure—in conjunction with water. Naturally, the proportions are critical. A low-salt diet with high water intake will, in some people, actually cause the blood pressure to rise. As a secondary complication, it can also cause asthma-like shortness of breath. The logic is simple. If you drink water and do not take salt, the water will not stay in the blood circulation adequately to completely fill all the blood vessels. In some, this will cause fainting, and in others, it will cause tightening of the arteries—and eventually constriction of bronchioles in the lungs—to the point of registering a rise in blood pressure, complicated by breathlessness. One or two glasses of water and some salt— a little of it on the tongue—will quickly and efficiently quieten a racing and ‘thumping’ heart, and in the long run, will reduce the blood pressure and cure breathlessness 9. Salt is vital for sleep regulation. It is a natural hypnotic. If you drink a full glass of water, then put a few grains of salt on your tongue, and let it stay there, you will fall into a natural, deep sleep. Don’t use salt on your tongue unless you also drink water. Repeated use of salt by itself might cause nose bleeds 10. Salt is a vitally needed element in the treatment of diabetics. It helps balance the sugar levels in the blood and reduces the need for insulin in those who have to inject the chemical to regulate their blood sugar levels. Water and salt reduce the extent of secondary damage associated with diabetes 11. Salt is vital for the generation of hydroelectric energy in all of the cells in the body. It is used for local power generation at the sites of energy need by the cells 12. Salt is vital to the communication and information processing of nerve cells the entire time that the brain cells work— from the moment of conception to death 13. Salt is vital for the absorption of food particles through the intestinal tract 14. Salt is vital for clearing the lungs of mucus plugs and sticky phlegm, particularly in asthma, emphysema and cystic fibrosis sufferers 15. Salt on the tongue will stop persistent dry coughs 16. Salt is vital for clearing up catarrh and sinus congestion 17. Salt is vital for the prevention of gout and gouty arthritis 18. Salt is essential for the prevention of muscle cramps 19. Salt is vital in preventing excess saliva production to the point that it flows out of the mouth during sleep. Needing to constantly mop up excess saliva indicates salt shortage 20. Osteoporosis, in a major way, is the result of salt and water shortage in the body 21. Salt is absolutely vital to making the structure of bones firm 22. Salt is vital for maintaining self-confidence and a positive self-image—a serotonin- and melatonin- controlled ‘personality output’ 23. Salt is vital for maintaining sexuality and libido 24. Salt is vital for reducing a double chin. When the body is short of salt, it means the body really is short of water. The salivary glands sense the salt shortage and are obliged to produce more saliva to lubricate the act of chewing and swallowing and also to supply the stomach with water that it needs for breaking down foods. Circulation to the salivary glands increases and the blood vessels become ‘leaky’ in order to supply the glands with more water to manufacture saliva. This ‘leakiness’ spills to areas beyond the glands themselves, causing increased bulk under the skin of the chin, the cheeks and into the neck 25. Salt is vital for preventing varicose veins and spider veins on the legs and thighs 26. Sea salt contains about 80 mineral elements that the body needs. Some of these elements are needed in trace amounts. Unrefined sea salt is a better choice of salt than other types of salt on the market. For instance, ordinary table salt has been stripped of its companion elements and contains additive elements such as aluminium silicate to keep it powdery and porous. Aluminium is a very toxic element in our nervous system. It is implicated as one of the primary causes of Alzheimer’s disease 27. As much as salt is good for the body in asthma, excess potassium is bad for it. Too much orange juice, too many bananas, or any ‘sports drink’ containing too much potassium might precipitate an asthma attack, particularly if too much of the drink or too many bananas are taken before exercising. It can cause an exercise-induced asthma attack. To prevent such attacks, some salt intake before exercise will increase the lungs’ capacity for air exchange. It will also decrease excess sweating 28. It is a good policy to add some salt to orange juice to balance the actions of sodium and potassium in maintaining the required volume of water inside and outside the cells. In some cultures, salt is added to melon and other fruits to accentuate their sweetness. In effect, these fruits contain mostly potassium. By adding salt to them before eating, a balance between the intake of sodium and potassium results. The same should be done to other juices 29. Dr Batmanghelidj: “I received a call one day from one of the readers of my book to tell me how he had unwittingly hurt his son. Knowing that orange juice was full of vitamin C, he forced his son to drink sev eral glasses of it every day. In the meantime, the young boy developed breathing problems and had a number of asthma attacks until he reached college and moved out of the sphere of influence of his father. His asthma cleared and his breathing became normal. The father told me he had to call his son and apologize for having given him such a hard time when he was younger. The more the son had rebelled against orange juice, the more the father had insisted he should take it, convinced a large amount was good for him.” 30. As a rough rule of thumb, you need about 3 grams of salt—a half-teaspoon—for every 10 glasses of water, or a quarter teaspoon per quart of water. You should take salt throughout the day. If you exercise and sweat, you need more salt. In hot climates, you need to take even more salt. In these climates, salt makes the difference between survival and better health and heat exhaustion and death 31. Warning! You must at the same time not overdo salt. You must observe the ratio of salt and water needs of the body. You must always make sure you drink enough water to wash the excess salt out of the body. If your weight suddenly goes up in one day, you have taken too much salt. Hold back on salt intake for one day and drink plenty of water to increase your urine output and get rid of your swelling 32. Those in heart failure – or kidney failure requiring dialysis – must consult with their doctors before increasing salt intake 2 Likes |
