My mother for example is living long, she doesn't have any illnesses apart from having allergies and being lactose intolerant which apparently I inherited from her while my other siblings doesn't seem to have lactose intolerance. She also develops high uric acid when she eats Mungbean soup for example or peanut butter or perhaps string beans.

My mother's allergies by the way wasn't as bad as before because now my mother developed allergies for shrimps, chicken, and eggs although she still consume foods with eggs or even a little bit of eggs. I do not know what is the culprit of my mother's allergies and I have yet to find out what is the cause of it.

My other brother also had a lot of allergies to the point that sometimes he wheezes if the allergy attack is too much. He is allergic to certain odors like the smell of rubbing alcohol, smoke of any variants, strong odors, and even food coloring which I had proven at one time when I prepared an Tang orange drink, after we drank some of it he began to have sniffles.

I thank god that I do not have such condition because it is hard to be allergic to foods particularly for my case where I just have a limited selection of food stuffs that I can eat and enjoy and if I will be allergic to some of these food items, then my choices of the small number of foods which I can consume will get reduced.

Anyway, my parents and I doesn't consume too much processed food except for my father who consumes 3 in one coffee. I also eat bread with Mayonnaise during my dialysis session for me to prevent my blood pressure in crashing. If I am consuming processed foods it will just be minimal but in comparison to my mother she is just consuming whole foods like fried fish, stewed fish in vinegar or tomatoes, and then bland vegetable dishes which I also eat.

My mother's diet seems to be contributing about her longevity and vitality because she is still strong and sharp in mind in comparison to other people in her age group. All of us rarely eat pork and beef due to its cost nowadays especially Pork which is like Beef in price and I see it as not worth it to purchase Pork meat anymore. We do eat chicken but we now consume more fish than chicken because my mother is also allergic to Chicken meat or maybe its skin but regardless we seldom eat chicken because again, my mother is allergic to it and most of the seafoods.

Now, we also be aware about other food groups like fruits and vegetables for example because although they are seemingly healthy to eat, they do contain pesticide residues which if we ingest every single day will cause us health issues like Cancer. It is better to consume fruits and vegetables which pesticides are not used but I know that it will be hard to procure those for ourselves but it helps us avoid developing illnesses which in my opinion roots from the foods that we eat, unnatural drinks that we drink, and also to the kind or type of environment that we are exposed into.

That is why I am not buying fruits that I know a pesticide is used but I still consume them buy just preparing them to lessen the pesticide residues which is still lingering on its skin. Well to do it you just have to wash the fruit and then soak it in water with baking Soda for fifteen minutes. The baking Soda will neutralize most of the pesticide residues so that the fruits can be much safer to consume compared to not doing this technique in the first place.

It is also good if the fruit has a thick rind because if you peel off the rind, then you will be more safe. That is why consuming grapes in my opinion is quite risky but again we just have to take precautions so that we can at least reduce the risk of getting sick from seemingly safe foods to consume but are really not that healthy because of what humans added to these whole foods.

The fruits I had showed her like the grapes and the oranges are just given to me by my sister's husband because he receives gifts from the suppliers of the company where he works as a Supervisor and he shares it to us including canned goods and even powdered drinks like Milo ® . The Saba variety of banana was bought by my mother and it is one fruit that chemicals are not used and we consume it freely.
