FOOD AND DRUG INTERACTION

It was said that what you don't know can't kill you; Now we know, that the contrary is the absolute truth. What you don't know kills. There are many examples to prove this starting from HIV to Diabetes.

If only they knew that ordinary protection like the use of condom or reducing the consumption of sugar could prevent them contracting the disease, they would probably have taken precautions.

So I will be doing a sensitization on the effect of food and fruit on drugs we injest into our body.

FOOD AND DRUGS

We fall ill as humans due to so many reasons from environmental to genetic and Man has come a long way in developing drugs that combats almost any type of sicknesses.

However, information about side effects of these drugs and food consumed during the use are often not well communicated to patients and to the general public as a whole.

This is getting serious now as these powerful drugs can easily be gotten at a local chemist by ignorant individuals

Here are some drugs and foods or drink you mustn't combine together

ALCOHOL AND STIMULANT DRUGS

Cases of drug abuse and death are becoming rampant all over the world especially in some African countries and it affects the youth most often.

A good example of drug that is highly abused is Tramadol. Tramadol is a central nervous system depressant and combined with alcohol which is also a depressant can slow down your brain which can lead to a state of depression and finally Suicidal thoughts

Also, the combination and abuse can cause seizures. This is because the central nervous system consist basically of the brain and the spinal cord and since tramadol is CNS drug inducer.

Taking too much will cause too much activities and reactions in the brain ultimately leading to seizures.

In general, Alcohol should not be taken with any pain relieving drink. Just ONE DRINK A WEEK WHEN TAKING THESE DRUGS CAN CAUSE GASTRO INTESTINAL BLEEDING.


DIARY PRODUCTS AND ANTI-BIOTICS

Ciprofloxacin and other fluroquinolones which is used for typhoid for example or tetracycline are very reactive to Diary foods and product.

You probably must have heard it before or not that when using thyphoid drugs, you should abstain from food like milk, cheese, youghurt etc

It's actually; Do not take them alone with these drugs because they will render the drug useless. You can read about the biological mechanism here.

MANGO STRAWBERRY MILK SHAKES

Okay, so I got tired of having to cut and chew mango and I decided to make a milk shake with the mango not knowing the taste will be. My friend; it was delicious.

I also thought, because I didn't know what the outcome will be, why not just add strawberry flavour.

I didn't want the fruit because I wanted to retain the light orange mango colour while tipping the taste up a little

CORNDOG

Hello fam. Hope you had enough rest from the weekend. One of the pastry that stands out in the finger foods family is the corndogs.

However, Not until 3years ago did it became a constant addition to the smallchops being served at events.

I have seen it been served at different events but only very few caterers seems to get it right. It's surprisingly simple to make but if care is not taken, you can end up messing it up.

Corndogs (blessed be whoever thought of it) is a very sweet finger food. It's a snack you can never get enough of and I will be given you step by step procedure on how to make excellent corndogs.

kasimseun:
Is it for free?

Blogging is free to start but if I'm to teach you, it's not free. It requires my time, brains and skill set and my megabyte... Lol... Have can it be free bro... Have mercy na!

Mariangeles:
Can I operate a blog with a phone ??
Is it possible ??

Let me share a secret with you. 99% of my blog posts were written on my phone. I might use laptop to check. (That's between me and you)

And trust me, I have made money. I use phone because of flexibility. I can be anywhere and be writing post.

jidemoh:
Will you teach me how to use crazy headlines to lure unsuspecting, dirty-minded readers to click on links that would redirect them to my blog so that I can generate traffic quickly?

I see that a lot on Nairaland.

That is way easy. However, that will not benefit your blog integrity. Infact, you will lose credibility and viewership more like that. There are different types of legit ways to drive traffic. People that will stay.

Moreover, Google has crawlers that calculate the amount of time people stay on your blog and use that to rate your blog.

And I'm so sure anybody that intends to watch porn and find himself or herself on your blog won't stay.

BLOGGING

My life changed completely when I was introduced into blogging. I was a workaholic working for most parts of the day while my friend is at home and making x5.

I first thought it was probably something else until he sat me down after some months of getting closer to him. Then, he taught how to work smart rather than work hard.

1. Blogging is forever as internet is; so you continue earning money even after death

2. You don't need money to start. There is a free domain you can start with using Google.

3. You decide to write anytime you want to.

4. Even if you decide not to write for a year, you can still be making money or even more.

5. You have enough content to drive your social media

6. Your nearest future starting from 6 months time is financial secured.

Who needs to blog?

* If you are unemployed

* If you want to have side husstle

* If you love writing

* If you are a house wife and you want to get busy

* If you have a lot of free time.

* If you love to earn from home

* If you hate stress


How to start?

* Pick a niche you know much about. A niche you love talking about. For example: Food, entertainment, Gist, Technology, Health, Travel etc

* Set up a free blog (blogger)

* Research what people are looking for concerning the niche you picked

* Start writing.

By the way, you can start earning in your first 6 months, I started earning on my 5th month and it doesn't stop.

If you need help to start or any question, you can reach me @ beewyle@gmail.com or 08107699626.

You can register for my class where I will help you set up your blog and guide you all the way!

I will be expecting your comment.

PUMPKIN LEAVES

(Pumpkin vegetable soup)

Pumpkin leaves came into lime light and became very popular for vegetable soup in the 1990s especially when it was believed to increase the production of red blood cells in the body.

It became the highest consumed vegetables in contrast to African Spinach (Efo Tete) which was previously majorly consumed.

Since it started becoming popular, I have eaten this soup in every type of way and in countless local restaurants.

As a chef, I was impressed with many but most didn't have a taste. So I decided to prepare mine quite differently so to improve the taste and make it sweeter.

RICE PILAF

I was very skeptical about this dish that ended up being a dish I never want to stop eating.

This is because I thought I had eaten all forms of rice exception rissoto and some few continental rice dishes

However, on completion, I realised it was a beautiful dish. The colour is rich brown and the aroma is to die for.

What is a Rice Pilaf?

Rice Pilaf is simply rice cooked in broth. It is very different to the rest like Jollof rice, Fried rice etc because it is normally in most cuisines baked in the oven with the broth.

It can also be cooked too but the preparation is totally different and it goes perfectly well with different types of soups and stew.

It originates around the Asian countries and there are different types being prepared today around the world!

We have the Vegetable rice Pilafs, Mushroom rice pilaf, Asparagus rice pilaf etc

what is mustard

Mustard is also a condiment like mayonnaise. Difference is it's gotten from mustard seed... It's used in glazing of pastries like hot dogs, also used in salad preparation etc.

It's optional by the way, you might decide not to use it.

Do it yourself (DIY) is one of the most searched for on the internet and that's because most realise it doesn't actually take much to make things we buy at high prices.

A good example is the Mayonnaise. This is ridiculously so easy and cheap to make However, very few people know. I

After you learn it, I bet you will never buy another mayonnaise again. You can even make your own variant of mayonnaise by adding your own flavour or food materials.

Examples are Onion Mayo, Eggless mayonnaise, chilli and Vegetable Mayonnaise etc. at a relatively cheap amount

So today, we are going to be treating this topic.

LIQUID CHOCOLATE

Going down memory lane of how I learnt this, I couldnt help but laugh.

I remember my roommate in the university then left the room for me when the pungent smell of burnt chocolate couldn't let him sleep.

I couldn't too by the way. It was from one trial to another and failure again and again until I finally got it.

BENEFITS OF CHOCOLATE

Apart from the fact that chocolate is an important ingredients in the production of the 3 categories of foods which are Appetizers, Main and Desserts, it also have many health benefits which include;

* Production of healthy Semen and Sperm

* It is a powerful anti-oxidant

* It helps to improve blood flow and prevents heart related issues

* It is very nutritious

Ok, Let's move to the recipe!

Note please: What you would love to use the chocolate for is what will dictate it's thickness.

To cover a cake, make it dense, to pour over cake, make it very creamy.

Arthritis and Food

The focus won't be on the medical aspect. At the same time, it has not yet been proven that any food can cure arthritis.

Also, Arthritis, presently has no cure However, it can be well managed with less or no pain.

Arthritis is in many forms but we will be dealing majorly with Osteoarthritis which is also known as Degenerate Joint Disease.

Follow me carefully:

Osteoarthritis is characterized by severe joint pains and Inflammation and there are different causes;

1. It is caused when the cartilages that cushions the friction of movement between two bones wears away. The results is serious pain as bones crushes against bone

2. Viral infections: When the body is trying to protect and kill virus by causing inflammations around the area of the joint. Sometimes, the body overdoes it and this leads to chronic Arthritis if fast treatment is not taken.

Unlike the other types of arthritis, once the viruses are eliminated from the body, the pain and Inflammation goes away. Let's stop here. Read more on causes here

How does food enter the whole scenario?

Food intake from birth helps the development of the whole body including bones. So there is no way we would deal with arthritis without mentioning food.

Also, Food might not be able to cure arthritis but your DIET plays a major factor in activating joint pain and reducing the pain and Inflammation.

The wrong diet will cause constant and consistent severe pain while others will help soothe the pain.

Foods that contributes to arthritis pains and Inflammation

I'm going to put these foods in two sections;

Foods to Limit and those to Avoid totally


1. FATTY FOODS AND JUNKS

Note pls;

Not all fats are bad. Actually, you need it in your daily food intake. However, there is what we call LDL (low density cholesterol) which are the bad fats and the HDL which are the good fat.

LDL (low density cholesterol ) or Saturated fat

They are called bad fats because they tend to form cholesterols inside the artery.

So you need to lower these set of foods;

* Red Meat

* Butter

* Cheese

* Vegetable oil. You can use coconut oil instead as research found that it has anti-inflammatory properties

* Fried foods

* Too salty foods. Limit your salt intake.

Shawarma

Writing about shawarma brings a lot of joy to me because I started my kitchen with shawarma infact, I started my whole food business with shawarma.

It's something that captivated me when I first saw it. Then, I ate it and it was just divine. I even gave myself the name uncle shawarma before I layer changed it.

I have been making shawarma for many years and I can boldly tell you that shawarma is a very profitable product you can sell anytime, anyday.

I'm not going to write about it's history because it's redily available on the net. I'm just going to make you interested in making it. You will totally love it.

Wraps

Shawarma is a family of wraps which is consumed in most parts of the world. Apart from shawarma, we have tacos.

While shawarma uses pita bread, wraps majorly uses wheat tortillas.

Shawarma is a mix of different proteins and vegetables and cream which makes it a balanced diet. The protein can be chicken, beef, goat meat etc

Materials That Makes Up A Good Shawarma

Pita Bread

It's a family of wraps ,so no shawarma is complete until there is flour based covering which holds all the materials you decide to use for your shawarma.

It is a sweetened flat bread which gives shawarma good taste. It also gives it structure; the shape you decide your shawarma will take.

Veggies

For any standard shawarma especially for commercial purposes, there is need for arrays of vegetables; most common are cabbages, carrots, cucumber, lettuce, tomato slices etc. You can create your signature shawarma by using your favorite veggies

Protein

Virtually almost all types of meat can be used for shawarma but the most popular are beef and poultry products.. beef, chicken, turkey, buffalos, chicken franks etc.

Fishes are usually exempted majorly because of their soft texture but why not, if you love fish, you can use fishcakes for shawarma.

THE ART OF PERFECT FRYING

"Frying like other types of food processing is very important to the success of any food preparation. No matter how perfect your technique is, once you burn the food, it's regarded as waste"

In contrast to baking, it requires more effort, attention and some EXPERIENCE OR TECHNICAL KNOW HOW so you could bring out the best out of your product.

If all you fry is just the house meat, you might not have need to read this however, if you hate frying or you would love to know more about frying as your work demands it, let's go.

what do u want to achieve? you are trying to get a golden brown product that is nicely done inside.

What you must know to perfectly get it right when frying.

HEAT CONTROL

This is the most important factor when frying. Different foods because of their texture demands different level of applied heat when frying.

* When frying foods like marinated fish, the oil must be hot or you risk messing up the fish you are trying to fry

* When frying pastries like eggroll, your oil must be on low set heat or else, you will have an undone eggroll.

Some pastries like puffs, buns, chicken nuggets must be on medium heat or else, it will soak up the oil.

Some frying problem arises when the oil is too hot which instantly burns the outer part of the food while the internal is still fresh

So it's safe to say the way you control the heat supply to the oil dictates whether frying would be successful or not

SAFETY WHEN FRYING

The two major reasons why we have splashing or hot oil splattering wildly about is the presence of.... Read all @

Ignorance is really a disease but the refusal to seek knowledge is to be dead. This section of food is one I avoid so much because of fear of failure.

Unknown to me, I have been in the art of cooking it without even knowing. So like me, after I'm done explaining Seafoods to you, you might be surprised it's a simple form of cooking

SEAFOODS (Seafood cooking)

This can simply be defined as cooking of anything in the sea regarded as food by humans.

The examples of these are countless but the ones you are familiar with are fishes, crayfishes, Shrimps, crabs, lobster, clams, calamari etc

A food is regarded as a seafood when different sea animals are incorporated into it for example, Sea food pasta, seafood rice, Sea food okro, seafood salad, grilled prawns, shrimps etc.

Hello friends. Today's topic is important because it involves everyone. I tried as much as possible to be as simple as ever and not be boring.

MALE FERTILITY AND STERILITY

You should know there are differences between a man being able to get it up and actual Fertilization (being sterile and being fertile)

A man might be able to go 3hours in a single round but not be able to impregnate a woman while some can't last 3minutes but they are fertile.

So I'm going to be listing out easy to find foods and fruits that improves the production of healthy sperm and semen, Helps sperm motility and improves Sexual Performance. I will also tell you why they do but before then, I will list few habits that destroys your sperms.

I would have loved to start a challenge on this too but how will we know unless we *******�����.

Anyway, if you eat this things and you stay away from what I list out here, you will surely see big improvements.

SOME FOODS AND HABITS THAT KILLS YOUR SPERM AND KILL YOUR SEXUAL DRIVE


1. Excessive Alcohol Consumption

Note I didn't say alcohol; this is because a little shot few times a month prevents you from having cardiovascular diseases... It helps the heart!

It's the excessive regular drinking that kills your libido and regularly leads to kidney failure.

This is because the kidney is in charge of removing poisonous liquid substances in the body and by drinking heavily most times, you have subjected the kidney to work 4times harder than it normally should.

Then, one day, it just wears out. So it's Paramount you reduce alcohol intake. Don't wait till dialysis and transplant.

HIGH SUGAR INTAKE

This is very common knowledge. Denying it, your punishment comes fast especially in the case of a sexually active adult.

There should be limit to the intake of junk foods, confections and Sodas.

Many local companies have made their fortunes by selling herbal products that reduces blood sugar. However, the best solution is abstinence or cut backs.

STRESS

The body upon undergoing too much stress for a long period of time starts secreting Cortisol instead of testosterone. The body will divert the resources to produce cortisol

Cortisol is a steroid hormone which gives you a feeling of more power when you feel tired already. So exercise your body and find ways to relax.

EXCESSIVE MASTURBATION

We all know what masturbation is. Sexual satisfaction by self which causes the veins on the penile shaft to become weak.

This is because for sexual gratification to occur, there must be a squeezing force applied on it which is much more harder than that of normal sexual experiences.

So it is advisable to stay off masturbation as a man.

Ok! Let's move to the real purpose of this post!

It's something I have observed over time. In fact, if not for discipline and God's grace... Probably I would have become something else... Also, as a chef, it seems I owe everybody free food.

It's popularity has grown recently and it's being served in local African restaurants in London and America.

I have observed many athletes for a while and having a National athlete as a street brother really opened my eyes to their secret diets.

It was then I realised that athletes whether upcoming or known have a diet they follow and observe intakes of some foods because of the nourishments it gives them.

At the same, they avoid some foods like plague except maybe they are not in playing season.

WHY ATHLETES NEED LOTS OF NUTRIENTS


EXERCISE

No athlete CAN succeed without exercising along their line of sport.

Depending on the form of sport involved with, an athlete can exercise for about an hour upward and without the right amount of carbs, protein and vitamins for energy, this might be impossible.


INJURIES AND WEARS

All athletes expend a lot of Energy because of competitions they involve themselves in and the struggle to be the best at their chosen sport.

This is impossible to achieve under a line of poor diet intake hence their need to observe a balanced diet that can repair their body very fast in case of injury.

uzoronwusa:
Do you have %100 natural supplement from food for sale?

No. I'm not selling any. It's a research. If you are not using, tell us why!

Before I started my journey into food as a chef, I never believed in the use too except I'm sick or I'm not eating well.

Food Supplements are products made from natural food extracts, dehydrated fruit or even synthesized in other to improve our health and balance our diet.

In Nigeria where very few bother to eat right and we develop lots of ailments like obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes and heart related diseases due to this... We should be the one using these supplements.....

So Why are you not using Food supplements and multivitamins?

Your answer is necessary so we can conclude our research...

Hello,

According to research, it is said that 80% of start ups (SMEs) fail or close down in the first 2 years of operations.

Today, I will give you three powerful tools I worked with when before and when starting my food company (Baker's Cafe) and it's been 7years now; You can't but need them.

However, before I start, I believe you already know, that to start a business, you must create time to plan and program; Plan and program what? YOUR IDEA!!!

IDEAS:

BY NOW, You must have passed the stage of knowing what to do; Either by accident, by intention or copying, you MUST be able to pinpoint what you want to expend your energy on.

Nobody will do that for you. Pick something that tickles your fantasy. Something you love doing or you hate the way it's been done. Something that gets your blood flowing!

you should also plan how to launch, the location to launch your idea and how to make an impression.

Programming your idea is very important because of an enemy called procrastination.

Most people are great planners but that's where it ends! Tons of notes without execution! They are weakened by what is called Fear of the UNKNOWN.

Another reason why you have to programme (set a time to act on your plans) is because you have limited funds and while you are planning, you need to survive and live.

So, in order not to spend your starting capital, you need to programme (set a time to start no matter the situation).

Okay! Let's get into it!

Cake Decoration

Cake decoration has many important values it adds to cake, it's like the cloth it wears!! It beautifies the cake, it enables you to express yourself in words and design and it sweetens the cake amidst all other importance.

There are different types of cake decoration;
1. Fondant

2. Butter icing

3. Royal icing.

However, in this series, I ll be talking about the butter icing!


Butter Icing

This is the type of cake icing that does it for me anytime any day.

Unlike fondant which can get very thick and not totally suitable with the cake after days, butter icing will still be very sweet, soft and it works like the cake sauce.

Butter icing can be made by creaming butter with icing sugar or powdered sugar. It can be done using a mixer or manually by hand. It can be fully made when colourant and flavour is added.

Decorating Cake With Butter Icing

As soon as your cake is done and it's well rested (hot cakes will melt the icing), you turn the cake over as the down part is well formed in terms of shape.

If the top is to be used, It is first trimmed. This is because irregular shaped cakes might affect your work and decoration.
So, when all these are in place, you will need the following equipments;

α Piping Set

α Cake Scrapper

α Cake Icing Turn tables

α Palette knives and leveller.

α Electrical Mixer


Materials needed for butter Icing.

Butter (Margarine)

Powdered Sugar (Icing sugar)

Colourant.. (Any colourant)

Flavour.

Hello friends, Hope you enjoyed my ofada Rice preparation?

Kk, let's deal with the sauce aspect. The ofada sauce (ayamase) is a rich and improved form of fried stew that can be easily done to go with ofada Rice specifically.

It can be taken with refined rice, yam etc. From experience, I have realised there are two types of ayamase,

The green type and the red type. I was a bit confused at first because because what I grew up eating is the red local rice sauce

However, in the course of my culinary journey, I was being presented with a green sauce also called ayamase.

Basically, the difference between the two is the generous use of green bell pepper in the first and red bell pepper in the latter.

It's not that the finished product of the green type is green but not as red in colour as the latter.

There are also two signature processes that forms the ofada sauce.

Process 1
The Palmoil to be used is bleached for like 10minutes. This can be done by excessively heating the Palmoil until the red colour fades.

Just make sure the pot is covered or get a smoke extractor.

Process 2

This is the generous or normal use of locust beans (Iru) which characterise the ayamashe smell and taste.

MCMXCVIII:
But it's not written there

Amazing day to you friends, this topic is a real headaches to majorly people already making a living working in a company or under an employer and these are the major reasons;

1. The company might be folding up

2. Their contract or tenure with the company is ending and might not be renewed

3. They have passions that is pushing them within and causing a disruption and dissatisfaction only them can understand (This happens regardless how much one is earning)

4. Salaries being paid is not solving the problems being accrued or delay in salary

5. Job insecurities and lots more


I decided to write about this because of the state of the world economy in general where job stability is getting to be a thing of the past.

In Nigeria alone, reports has it by Nigerian association of chambers of commerce, miners and agriculture that more than 800 companies have folded up in the last 2years as a result of economic depression.

As Robert kiyosaki would say, we have been programmed to study in school, get good grades, get good jobs and work hard to create a good retirement plan.

For me, that's not a bad plan at all however, times are changing and along with it are the terrains of work and businesses.

Job security no longer exist and in this era of mass retrenchment, companies folding up and other mishaps, one have to ask, What will happen? What will you do? How will I survive?

So it doesn't seem like I'm babbling, I'm going to give you examples of companies that folded up recently both in my country and internationally.

¤ Etisalat Nigeria

¤ Hummer

¤ Blockbuster

¤ Newsweek: The second largest American magazine with over 2million readers.

¤ Hollywood video and recently some banks in Nigeria (You think the new managements wont lay off some staffs? Think again.) and so on..

So what's the solution? Simple!! Do the impossible!! Continue your work while you build your business.

Challenges involved in building a business while working

1. EFFICIENCY: Most workers are consumed all day with office work and tend to be exhausted already after the days job and to start working on a plan or execution might be really tasking.

2. TIME: Work hours for most companies is always between 8:00am - 5:00pm. So it's hard to be available to participate in the building of the business and this is very paramount because leaving the business in the hands of others can make the business collapse before commencement.

3. SERIOUSNESS: For someone whose livelihood doesn't depend on the business to be created, they tend to make it an hobby as the do or lose it all attitude will be lacking.

CREATIVE WAYS TO SUCCESSFULLY START DESPITE CHALLENGES

1. BE CRYSTAL CLEAR ON THE TYPE AND NATURE OF BUSINESS YOU ARE VENTURING INTO.
This is very important because truth be told, there are some types of business which needs the undivided attention of the owner.

I personally recommend online businesses which you can start, monitor and grow while working in your office.

In the case of businesses like trading where you need to purchase and sell, the only way is to get a Trusted person who will handle the business for you but trust me, getting a trusted, intelligent person to carry out the business like you will is a great herculean task.

2. INVEST IN TECHNOLOGY: The few CEOs I have met that works and have companies under them are people that makes use of techs and social media to run their affairs.

For example, I met a man who is a branch manager of a bank during my delivery works that have meetings with all his managers via Emo every monday.

He has managed to acquire and own a Polytechnic, a Microfinance bank, Paint and Chemical company and an Aluminum sheet producing company.

We have CCTV and I know of a transport trucks owner who wired all his trucks through a tech company and gets live feed on the movements of all his truck's movement. A lot more can be gained depending on the type of business one is starting especially now with Google map and Imaging

3. DO IT BIG: One of the advantages of working is you have access to finance which is the biggest challenge of sole entrepreneurs. You have the finance or can get access through loans, savings etc..

You also have work experiences you can put to use and networks. You have all this powerful tools that can take a starting entrepreneur years to acquire. Why not make use of them?

4. TAKE YOUR TIME, PLAN YOUR TIME AND TEST THE GROUNDS:
I love to be sincere to myself and this has helped me in my business.

The reality is, Rushing to start up a business while working can be too tasking for your health in general, so while building a business, don't ruin the existing work which is less risky at the moment and more stable at the moment.

You are trying to create a system you can retire to or a side support to your work which though must be taken with all seriousness

However, don't starve your present work of attention.

Secondly, working gives you the added advantage of taking time to test your ideas and getting response, creating a format that can hint you partially the level of success it can pull.
