ADVICE FROM UKM MEDICAL DOCTOR
little did you know ...... after reading THIS, you'll NEVER look at petai
in the same way again!
Petai contains three natural sugars -sucrose, fructose and glucose.
Combined with fiber, petai gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of
energy. Research has proved that just two servings of petai provide enough
energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder petai is the number one
fruit with the world's leading athletes. But energy isn't the only way
petai can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial
number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.
Depression:
According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND among people
suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating petai. This
is because petai contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts
into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make
you feel happier.
PMS(premenstrual syndrome):
Forget the pills - eat petai. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood
glucose levels, which can affect your mood.
Anemia:
High in iron, petal can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood
and so helps in cases of anemia.
Blood Pressure:
This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt,
making it perfect to beat blood pressure. So much so, the US Food and Drug
Administration has just allowed the petai industry to make official claims
For the fruit's ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.
Brain Power:
200 students at a Twickenham (Middlesex) school were helped through their
exams this year by eating petai at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to
boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit
can assist learning by making pupils more alert.
Constipation:
High in fiber, including petai in the diet can help restore normal bowel
action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.
Hangovers:
One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a petai milkshake,
sweetened with honey. The petai calms the stomach and, with the help
of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and
re-hydrates your system.
Heartburn:
Petai has a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from
heartburn, try eating petai for soothing relief.
Morning Sickness:
Snacking on petai between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and
avoid morning sickness.
Mosquito bites:
Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area
with the inside of the petai skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at
reducing swelling and irritation.
Nerves:
Petai is high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system.
Overweight:
Studies at the Institute of Psychology in Austria found pressure at work
Leads to gorging on comfort food like chocolate and crisps. Looking at
5,000 hospital patients, researchers found the most obese were more likely
To be in high-pressure jobs. The report concluded that, to avoid panic-induced
Food cravings, we need to control our blood sugar levels by snacking on high
Carbohydrate foods every two hours to keep levels steady.
Ulcers:
Petai is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of
its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten
without distress in over-chronicler cases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and
reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.
Temperature control:
Many other cultures see petai as a 'cooling' fruit that can lower both the
physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. In Holland, for
example, pregnant women eat petai to ensure their baby is born with a cool
Temperature.
Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD):
Petai can help SAD sufferers because they contain the natural mood enhancer,
tryptophan.
Smoking:
Petai can also help people trying to give up smoking. The B6, B12 they
contain, as well as the potassium and magnesium found in them, help the body
recover from the effects of nicotine withdrawal.
Stress:
Potassium is a vital mineral, which helps normalize the heartbeat, sends
oxygen to the brain and regulates your body's water balance. When we are
Stressed, our metabolic rate rises, thereby reducing our potassium levels.
These can be rebalanced with the help of a high-potassium petai snack.
Strokes:
According to research in 'The New England Journal of Medicine', eating
petal as part of a regular diet can cut the risk of death by strokes by as
much as 40%'.
Warts:
Those keen on natural alternatives swear that if you want to kill off a
wart, take a piece of petai and place it on the wart. Carefully hold the petai
in place with a plaster or surgical tape!
So, as you can see, petai really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you
compare it to an apple, it has four times the protein, twice the carbohydrates,
Three times the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the
Other vitamins and minerals. It is also rich in potassium and is one of the
Best value foods around. So maybe its time to change that well-known phrase
So that we say, 'A Petai a day keeps the doctor away'.
