FFH - MILK

Today on Fruits, Food and Hair, we shall be discussing milk. Yes, Milk and all you need to know about it.

Have you ever imagined if the fat and slim people have their own type of milk? Or, anyone despite the body size can go for anyone on the shelf.

MILK is a white creamy liquid produced by the mammary gland of mammals. It’s the primary source of nutrition for infants before they are able to digest other types of food.

MILK contains about 88% H2O, 5% carbohydrate called Lactose, 3-4% Protein called Casein, 3-4% of milk fat.

HEALTH BENEFITS OF MILK
  • Calcium: Build healthy bones and teeth, maintains bone mass.
  • Protein: Serves as a source of energy, builds/repair muscle tissues.
  • Potassium: Helps maintain a healthy blood pressure.
  • Phosphorus: Aids in strengthening bones and generate energy.
  • Vitamin D: Held maintain bones.
  • Vitamin B12: Maintains healthy red blood cells and nerve tissue.
  • Vitamin A: Maintains the immune system, helps maintain normal vision and skin.
  • Riboflavin (B2): Converts food into energy.
  • Niacin: Metabolizes sugars and fatty acids.

Milk has much nutrition that you don't have to drink a gallon of it before you benefit from its nutrition. The National Diary Council says that just one 8 ounce glass of milk provides the same amount of Vitamin D you would get from 3.5 ounces of cooked salmon, as much calcium as 2 1/4 cups of broccoli, as much potassium as a small banana, as much Vitamin A as two baby carrots and as much Phosphorus as a cup of kidney beans.

WHO SHOULD AVOID MILK?

Individuals who are allergic or intolerant to milk and dairy products may try to avoid them. For such people, eating dairy products such as yoghurt in small quantities may be helpful.

Singing Preacher Releases New Song

Just a month after the release of "Kabiyesi" by Zumba Singing Preacher, the anointed music minister comes with another thought provoking song titled, "Message to Heaven" on his birthday. Message to Heaven tells of a Christian who has gone into the field as commanded by his Master. He writes a letter to his Master to ask for help lest all he has laboured for ends up in hopelessness. The song is a mental picture of the struggle of many young Christians and older ones too who have lost faith or at the verge of losing faith. Yet, seeing that we have a Father in heaven, we believe He will send us help in no time lest we dash our feet against a stone. Click here to download From all of us at the Tribe's Family, we say Happy Birthday our very own. More blessings!

OMA-EMERALD PRODUCTS There is a blessing for all of those who are diligent in whatever it is they do (Proverbs 10:4). The Lord in His words said, “He would bless the labour of our hands” (Deut. 16:15). Life success is based on Applied Principles. There is the principle of sowing and reaping (Gen. 8:22), giving and receiving (Luke 6:38), laboring and given wages for labour (Luke 10:7). These 3 basic principles are the most applied though not totally recognized as important because of how simple it sounds. Humans generally are moved by sophistication but the greatest of things are in its simplest forms. The mentality to get rich quick and at all cost or to get rich by simply doing one minor thing without stress or hard work attached to it has led many to dip their hands into life-ending things with no eternal value. To the male folks, and as well as the female folks too, the act of making a pact with the devil in order to get wealth even if it’s for a season, seems t...

YAHWEH ALL THE WAY

YAHWEH ALL THE WAY! In John Piper ’s devotional, He points out 10 tings YAHWEH means. We highlight them as follows: 1. He never had a beginning. 2. God will never end. 3. God is absolute reality. 4. God is utterly independent. 5. Everything that is not God depends totally on God. 6. All the universe is by comparison to God as nothing. 7. God is constant. 8. God is the absolute standard of truth and goodness and beauty. 9. God does whatever he pleases and it is always right and always beautiful and always in accord with truth. 10. God is the most important and most valuable reality and person in the universe. This brings us to how we wish to describe God in this awesome song by U-Mark. Ugochukwu Mark aka U-Mark is known for his ever charismatic stage performance and recording excellence under the power of God has led many in worship and praise to the throne of Grace and hasn’t stopped.   In this beaut...
