A surf photographer, business owner and father of two is
seeing more and more plastic wash ashore his beloved home beach. In a bid to
discover the route of this problem he embarks on a journey of discovery to
educate himself and understand more about the problem. Along the way, he discovers
some alarming issues.
Plastic Pollution is a very real threat to the future of our
planet, the animals that inhabit our oceans and ultimately the human race. The
problem is far worse than it seems on the surface and we need to act now to
ensure we protect the future for ourselves and our planet.

Alzheimer's is an illness, in which memory is gradually lost. At one time he or she completely lost his /her memories. Please read it carefully. Yourself or someone in your family may be suffering this illness.
----------------------------------------
After the age of 50 one may experience many types of illnesses.
But the one I am most worried about is Alzheimer's. Not only would I not be able to look after myself, but it would cause a lot of inconveinence to family members....
One day, my son came home and told me that a doctor friend has taught him an exercise using the tongue.
The tongue exercise is effective to reduce the onset of Alzheimer's and is also useful to reduce / improve
*1* Body weight
*2* Hypertension
*3* Blood-Clot in Brain
*4* Asthma
*5* Far-sightedness
*6* Ear buzzing
*7* Throat infection
*8* Shoulder / Neck infection
*9* Insomia
The moves are very simple and easy to learn....
Each morning, when you wash your face, in front of a mirror, do the exercise as below :
*stretch out your tongue and move it to the right then to the left for 10 times*
Since I started exercising my tongue daily, there was improvement in my Brain Retention.
My mind was clear and fresh and there were other improvements too...
1 Far sightedness
2 No giddiness
3. Improved wellness
4. Better digestion
5. Lesser flu / cold
I am stronger and more agile.
Notes
The tongue exercise helps to control and prevent Alzheimer's...
Medical research has found that the tongue has connection with the BIG Brain. When our body becomes old and weak, the first sign to appear is that our tongue becomes stiff and often we tend to bite ourselves.
Frequently exercising your tongue will stimulate the brain, help to reduce our thoughts from shrinking and thus achieve a healthier body.
