Do not sleep with a full stomach

I had a good time tonight at the night market in Chow Yang, SS2. My mom and I planned to get some fruits and vegetables tonight. We thought our plan had failed because it was raining thunder storm at around 6.30pm. Luckily the rain stopped after we had our dinner. Then my bf came over and took us to the night market.  :)   Thanks honey… muacks.

We ended up buying more than we’ve planned. The pastries looked irristable, Takoyaki was a bit disappointing, pancake is a failure, smoked salted chicken was yummy, cheap and flavourful Pan Mee… yum.

The bf and I ate a double dinner tonight. After that I made him a Enzyme drink from Lo Hong Ka. We are trying to watch our diet and bf definitely has to lose some weight. I will help him whichever way I can, so I let him try the enzyme drink. This is more for detox and losing some weight.

My tonic enzyme I keep it for the weekend classes. It is kind of expensive to drink that everyday. Mummy is drinking it more often than I do. What to do? She is richer than me. :P

Fruit enzyme goodness

I have read so much about making fruit enzyme from other blogs and in the newspaper.

The kitchen enzyme uses fruits skin and other plant base kitchen wastes. Put everything inside a dry container, add water, sugar and let it ferment in the dark. Check on it every other day, shake the bottle a little and harvest after 3 months. This can be used as a cleaning agent around the home.

Then there is home-made fruit enzymes for consumption. It is suppose to be beneficial for health and can also be used in cooking. I have no intention of making these, even though it is cheap and easy.

We can never tell what is growing in the container. So how safe is it to make your own fruit enzymes? I hope I don’t come across any news about someone got poisoned by home-made fruit enzyme.

If you have the same doubts as me, listen to your own little voice. You can get enzyme drinks from the shop. Just make sure it is from a reputable manufacturer.

I have started drinking Lifeforce 540 by Eu Yan Sang. It has more than 10 types of fruits and vegetables with Cordyceps.

So far I have not encountered any heatiness after drinking this like I normally do with Chinese herbs. I take a cup once a week, normally after the weekend classes.

It isn’t cheap. A bottle costs RM108 and makes 10 cups only. Since I don’t take much supplement or tonic, I guess I can make myself healthier by drinking fruit enzyme which is natural.
