My youngest son was craving for mango juice last Saturday while we were having dinner in one of the most popular malls in the metro. Since it’s almost closing time when he requested for a fresh mango juice, we had to scrambled all over the malls on where to get the precious juice my son is craving for.
Finally, after two floors and three closed fresh juice stores , we finally find one that was still opened – and that’s Frutas. It’s one of the well known kiosks around the mall that sells fresh juice. We ordered 4 medium cup size of their mango juice. And then, we went back to the restaurant where we ordered our dinner.
You may be wondering why all the fussed about the juice. It’s simply because that I taught my kids to drink juices – better fresh – than soda. And did you know that we don’t store any sodas in our fridge? I’m sure you know the reason for this.
While sipping the mango juice, I’ve noticed the label on the cup. It’s written on the label what are the benefits of drinking (or eating of course) the different kind of fruits.
See the picture of the cup, which I personally shot, with the label on it. You might have difficulties in reading the label or not, but I’ll write it down here anyway.
Food For Thoughts
- Strawberry – a good refreshing cleanser for the whole body
- Orange - helps in cleaning the digestive system
- Melon – a gentle laxative that stimulates action on the kidneys
- Watermelon – stimulates the appetite , while cleansing the bladder and kidneys
- Apple – helps relieve indigestion, keep cholesterol level stable and suppress the appetite
- Banana – an excellent aid in digestion
- Mango – gives energy, vitality and promotes healthy skin
- Papaya – an energy booster that stimulates the appetite and cleanses the internal organs
- Pineapple – aids in the digestion of protein.
- Grape – an excellent metabolism stimulator
These “thoughts” are not new anyways. For years, we’ve been taught to do one simple thing in order to strengthen our bodies, prevent and cure various ailments.
Many kids don’t like eating fresh fruits and vegetables. Being a mom, we have to give our kids their fare share of a healthy life by introducing them to the best alternatives – that is literrally turn lemon into lemonade. Cheers!
