The Rice Magician

If rice is your staple and you are ruffled by all the bad press linking white rice (short grain) to diabetes, fret not, you can have your rice by choosing from a variety of healthier choices while cutting down on rice consumption in general by taking on alternative healthy food such as wholegrain bread or wholegrain noodle.

At QQ Rice (aka The Rice Magician), you are spoiled for choice with the following selection of rice and their purported benefits as sourced from their website:

Purple Rice (211 kcal/100 gm)

"Once known as the prized grains served only to the royals in ancient China, this super-food has extremely high nutritional value which provides a higher level of vitamins, minerals and fiber than any bran rice. In addition, it contains a comprehensive range of amino acids, proteins, vegetable fats and essential trace elements needed by the body to improve the immune system and promote longevity."

Red Rice (211 kcal/100 gm)

"Red rice contains a variety of anthocyanins that give its bran a red color. These anthocyanins, which act as antioxidant, have properties to reduce inflammation, allergy and prevent risk of cancer.  With high iron content, red rice also helps the body to promote the creation of red blood cells, thus preventing anemia." 

Mixed Grain (208 kcal/100 gm)

"It was once mentioned that this rice combination was started off by a monk who mixed 10 different types of healthy grains collected through alms-giving. Since then, this colorful blend of nutrient-dense grains got popular as it stimulates appetite and provides balanced nutrition that aims to prevent arteriosclerosis, stroke, heart attack and cancers."

Brown Rice (199 kcal/100 gm)

"With only the outermost layer, the hull, being removed, brown rice retained its nutrient-dense bran and germ layers which are rich in Selenium and fibre to promote weight loss and prevent colon cancer."

Wheat Five (191 kcal/100 gm)

"Combining the essential nutriments from pearl barley, cereal, buckwheat, oats and red wheat, wheat five has an abundance of minerals and vitamins, particularly rich in Vitamin E which contributes in reducing the problem of asthma. Moreover, it can also help to balance cholesterol and protect the heart. To the females, pearl barley is effective in beautifying the looks through fairer and clearer skin."

Uplifting Epic Music

Music transcends words and has the power to move us. 

Click here for Most Beautiful Music Ever: "Everdream" by Epic Soul Factory.

Here is an extracted comment from the composer himself:-

"Hi, I'm Cesc Vilà, the composer of this track. 

I just wanted to let you know how important is for me to read all your beautiful comments. To read that someone can feel more relax or empowered and even that this music can help you a little bit to endure your struggle with depression, is something that's beyond what a composer could ask for and makes me feel a sense of purpose and a strength to move on with my life too. 

Sadly, sometimes we (myself) are knock out by many circumstances..., and although we all know that eventually things will pass, it's really hard to move on. At such dark times it is good to cling to what life gives to us..., it may be an idea, a dream, a song..., or even a series of warm comments in a video on you tube (that's the case). Anything goes to keep going on, to return back to our light.

I just wanted to show you my gratitude and also encourage you all. Feel free to listen to my track Suns and Stars (Really Slow Motion). It's there on you tube. Not propaganda. I think that track really can help you also to feel empowered, uplifted and happy..., even if just makes you smile or dream for a second, it will be worthwhile :)

Thanks also to HDSounDI for sharing my work. 

See you soon ^_^ "

An orchestra is a metaphor of life where each of us play our part and create, well, a symphony of musical harmony if we follow our Maker's design and purpose for our respective lives.
