My health which had been pretty bad since Aug 2008 and actually improved vastly over the past two months when I started taking Nattokinase which apparently seemed to be unclogging whatever is clogging my arteries.
I have been monitoring my BP quite religiously and it somehow pointed to a possible culprit … which is swimming in [...]

It is just a simple solution to save the cost of cleaning and filtering debris from the public swimming pools. I have just written a letter to the relevant authorities and I am keepig my finger-crossed that at least this simple suggestion can be implemented. Having less pollutants in the pool also means use of [...]

I understand that many people are jumping onto the Twitter fad to get instant message fast. So it also meant that people would be constantly receiving SMS, maybe every few seconds.

Yesterday, after Clement’s swimming lesson, we would have our dinner at a coffee shop near our flat since it was already quite late and it would be too tiring for Carine (my dear wife) to cook dinner for the family.

I have been taking some L-carnitine, Alpha Lipoic acid and CQ10 to improve my blood circulations and pressure from possible nerve impingement via my cervical (neck) spondolysis (C4/5) and possible axis and atlas vertebrae misalignment.
Even a SGH consultant agreed that a possible reason why my hands feel cold was possible because the affected nerve also [...]

This evening, after swimming for about a hour or so, I felt rather thirsty and thought about getting a canned drink as I passed a soft-drink dispensing machine.
Nope, I thought, remembering that the cold drink would bring about a sneeze, especially after a swim. However, what to do? And I bought a can of very [...]

I often go to Causeway Point with my family for dinner and sometimes I visit the Banquet foodcourt for Char Kuay Teow. However, what peeve me off, is that the cook at the Char Kuay Teow stall persist in using a plastic plate to scoop the food from the blazing hot wok. I reminded the [...]

I think our libraries or gymnasiums could go one step further by providing those who wants to read, watch video, listen to audio cd or surf the net while running on a treadmill or pedaling on a stationery bike. Presently this is mostly found at exclusive and expensive gyms.
Of course, these services could be provided [...]
