If you are in diet, you definitely include fruits in your meal. Fruits are great alternatives to those fatty foods, that’s the reason why most dieters include fruits in their diet menu. Fruits can also serve as a natural appetite suppressant because every time you eat fruits, you will feel like your full already resulting you to resist the temptation brought by those tempting dishes. But did you know that this can go much deeper? There are fruits that play a very big role in helping an individual to lose weight and to burn fats. One of them is what so-called moyoberry. It is berry that will help you to burn fat, lose weight, and cleanse your body effectively. It is medically tested and proven effective to burn fats and suppress appetite. Like no other fruits, moyoberry is said to be a kind of fruit that controls a hormone called “leptin” that can plays a big part with weight loss. But just like what I always said, buying any kind of dietary products is very risky especially if you don’t have enough knowledge about the product. It is advisable to check some online forums or product reviews site to help you out in buying the right product.

Watermelon Craze

I can feel the summer already. One of the indication are the watermelons which are scattered everywhere in the market. While we’re driving on our way to Tagaytay, which is a perfect summer destination, we saw a group of roadside vendors selling a lot of newly harvest watermelons. We took advantage of it and bought some watermelons. You can serve this red watery flesh fruit as a dessert. It is also perfect to mix with your fruit salad together with some other fruits. Just add cream and presto! you have a yummy creamy fruit salad. You can also put this into the blender and add some milk and sugar to have a watermelon-flavored shake.

Watermelon is a great source of lycopene, which is helpful to prevent heart disease, diabetes, osteoporosis, and even cancer. Watermelon is also a diuretic food which helps prevent kidney-related diseases! Yummy and Healthy!

It’s pretty easy to prepare a Fruit Salad knowing that it doesn’t required you to cook anything. As long as you have the necessary ingredients like fruits and creams, you can do a yummy fruit salad in no time! normally fruit salad prepared by all type of fruits are mixed and brings it new flavor. My favorite salad recipe is what we called “Buko” or Coconut salad. We usually serve this delightful desert in every special occasion like Birthdays, Christmas, and other Special Holidays.

Now here i am preparing my very own salad.

Just mix the Coconut strips to your condensed milk

Add some raisins

Add Whole kernel corns and cheese cubes

Add All purpose cream

Then add your fruits! here, i bought a ready made fruit coctail which contains pineaplle chunks, and fruits like cherry, papaya, melon and strawberry.

Tadah!!! we’re done!! Just store your salad into your fridge the whole day or night and then you will have a delightful, yummy desert!

Philippines is a tropical country that’s why a tropical fruit like Pineapple is very common to find. Pineapple is eaten fresh and perfect for desserts, salads, and of cource Fruit Cocktails. It can also serve as a complement for meat dishes. Here in the Philippines, one of my mom’s specialty is a chicken dish called “Pininyahang Manok”. It is a Chicken dish cooked with pineapple juice and coconut milk. My mom even add some pineapple chunks into it.

However, for an acidic person like me, i should have control my self in eating too much pineapple as it’s known for having a high acid content which is quite harmful for me.

oh did i mentioned desserts a while ago? Have you tried Pineapple tarts? My Auntie is good in making tarts…oh my and now i’m craving for them! I better go and visit my Auntie and ask her to bake some tarts for me! Yum Yum
