Health benefits of Papaya
Thursday, 12 November 2009 - 7:20 PM SL Time
|
The papaya is an amazingly rich source of the proteolytic enzymes. These are the chemicals that enable the digestion of protein. Papain, which is the most important of these enzymes in the papaya, is extracted and dried as a powder for use to aid the digestion, and it is often used as a meat tenderizer, the enzyme partially breaking down the meat fibres - digesting them in fact.
Many experts, such as Dr Lytton-Bernard, have claimed rejuvenating properties for papaya, especially for the control of premature ageing. It may be that it works simply because a poor digestion leaves the body without the correct nutrients. Those who find it almost impossible to digest anything frequently find that papaya used regularly, either in tablet or juice form, marks the turning point in the climb back to vitality and good health.

Dr. Dr Wijaya Godakumbura - Vote for Him

A BRIGHT IDEA
He is Dr. Wijaya Godakumbura.
He came out with a simple idea to replace the traditional bottle lamp used in poor Sri Lankan homes with a safe lamp which does not turn over and catch fire.
He has silently carried out this mission and have so far handed over 775,000 units to save twice the number with possible burns and loss of life.
We should be proud of him as he is now being short listed amongst 12 finalists to be voted for the coveted BBC World Challenge 2009, organized by BBC, Newsweek and Shell.

Palitha Perera: Singhalising Colonial Cricket

He was in tears before the vast gathering, not once but twice.
Before a jam-packed hall, the famous Ananda Samarakoon Studio of the Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation (or the SLBC, earlier known as Radio Ceylon), he strived to hide his tears, during his thanksgiving speech. The reception was so overwhelming that his inner surprise and satisfaction would have easily found an escape in the form of a weighty tear drop. So natural. Over 45 years of passion and commitment shown in a chosen profession, which he had to define and redefine himself, has brought in its wake, at least belated appreciation.

DEDICATED TO GG :)))
Contrary to stereotypes about sexual performance and masculinity, men interviewed in a large international study reported that being seen as honorable, self-reliant and respected was more important to their idea of masculinity than being seen as attractive, sexually active or successful with women.
The study published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine included interviews with more than 27,000 randomly selected men from eight countries (Germany, U.S., U.K., Spain, Brazil, Mexico, Italy and France), with about 16 percent of the men reporting erectile problems.
