Came up this discussion about the downside of drinking too much Green Tea. Although drinking Green Tea Polyphenols and Catechine has the good benefit of anti-oxidants which helps to prevent cancer and fighting against free radicals. Drinking too much has side effects that are no good for the body.   Also to note that Catechine can be found in fruits and vegetables too.   In everything,

Interesting. Black tea has another plus point for treating diabetes. It seems the researchers at Tianjin Key Laboratory in China found the polysaccharides (a kind of carbohydrate) in black tea helps inhibit the absorbtion of glucose. They also studied the other teas, green tea, oolong tea. All three have polysaccharides but the black tea inhibition ability is the best.So drink up more black teas!

Interesting how this traditional medicine ‘jamu’ using Rafflesia flower azlanii bud for reducing weight, to shrink uterus after giving birth and for supposedly sexual strength for men. The UKM study found out that it works in a way but there is a unfortunately cost to using this Rafflesia flower bud, it damages the liver and spleen. This highlight shows that using ‘jamu ‘ made using Rafflesia

So tomorrow after I’ve done all my work, I’ll be off to good old CH for some updated info. I’m going alone this time coz my wife is expecting and not so good to come along.

This hot weather in Malaysia is getting unbearable. Wish I got a chance to head out to the hills. Of course no choice gotta work to pay bills and save for the future. Recently the newspaper highlighted the hot weather situation in Malaysia. A quick check with the Meteorological website and found out that the day time Cameron Highlands weather temperature is about 25°C.However that is based on the

For those who are wondering about Cameron Highlands weather around this year end, no need to wonder. Typically it is the year end monsoon season with wind blowing in from the North-East to South-West bringing along with it the moisture laden atmosphere from the sea. When the moisture laden warm air hits the cool climate of the mountain range in the central area of Peninsular Malaysia it would

There will be a MATTA travel fair from 12th-14th March 2010 at the PWTC Kuala Lumpur. Perhaps for those who are looking for some special cuti-cuti Malaysia travel holiday packages, you might want to check it out and see if you can find anything for Cameron Highlands.In previous MATTA Fair I did come across some promotion for hotels like Lakehouse Cameron Highlands. Perhaps they might have

I haven't got a chance to blog about Sam Poh Kong Temple or the other places of worship although it was in the back of my mind for some time. One reader asked me where is the Buddhist temple in Cameron Highlands. There are many Buddhist temples around Cameron Highlands. Somehow Sam Poh Kong is the most popular and it is usually featured in the commercial Cameron Highlands map.Anyway, how to go to

My brother-in-law finally checked in Century Pine Hotel in Tanah Rata. Now he is very particular about service, after all, he is also in the service industry. The Century Pines Hotel service leaves much to be desired. Apparently during this peak period they are rather short handed I suppose. Still so far I have heard many complaints about most of the hotel service in Cameron Highlands. I guess

The other day my brother asked, "Century Pines Hotel vs Heritage Hotel, which one better?"My brother was trying to find a hotel in Tanah Rata and was deciding on one of the star rated hotels in Cameon Highlands. Heritage Hotel has been long established while Century Pines Hotel was refurbished. After staying in each hotel I liked Century Pines Hotel. I think in terms of star rating Heritage got 5

"So how far is it from KL to Cameron Highlands?" my boss asked."About three hours by car and an additional one hour or two by bus." I replied."What is there to do and see there?""Well, there is the tea plantation, vegetable farms and markets, countryside views."After thinking awhile, he thought the time and effort to go over to Cameron Highlands may not be worth the effort. He was planning a trip

Lena decided it was time to take a break. And so this Labour Day long weekend seemed like a good opportunity to go Cameron Highlands to take a break, not only from the hotspell lately but also from work. It was a hustle and bustle of activity as she went about to get the various food stuff ready. We are going to have a steamboat in Greenhill apartment which she managed to book. There also some

Goodness gracious! My website is just information and review about Cameron Highlands. I do not do hotel accommodation apartment bookings, I do not sell organic vegetable products, I do not provide travel and tours services, I do not sell flowers! My dear fellow netizens, I can't help you on the above because I don't do them!Cheers!

There is so many different types of tea and yet they all come from the same plant known as Camellia Sinensis, how the tea leaves are processed determines the type of tea.The taste of the tea itself on the other hand is different story. It is determined by many factors. Like wine, it is influenced by the environmental conditions of the region in which it is grown, such as climate, soil and

Cameron Highlands weather is somewhat more wet this year. Seems like every trip I made to Cameron Highlands, I will experience rain. The last weekend trip was no different. Using my Casio watch which has a build in temperature meter, I noted that day time temperature was about 26°C while night time temperature was about 21°C. Gets kinda cold when it rains too.This time round we stayed in Desa

One of my readers mentioned that there will be water supply disruption around 12 July 2009. This was informed by the staff at Hotel Equatorial. However it was not clear whether the water disruption will only affect Equatorial Hotel or Cameron Highlands in general. It could be a schedule maintenance by the water works department. As I was informed sometime ago, the water shortage situation in

I really want to go back Cameron Highlands for a holiday. Especially to cool off! The weather down in the lowlands is really sweltering hot. The meteorological department recorded rising temperatures around the country. They measured a 35.6°C on the 8/May/2009 last Friday in Subang Jaya. In Pahang at Batu Embun it was 36.2°C. That's way too hot!According to the meteorological dept, this hot spell

At first we wanted to head out to east coast and go visit the Terengganu sea beaches. However the weather in Kuala Lumpur was just way too hot for the past several weeks; so we decided to head to Cameron Highlands instead. So much for tourism Malaysia. The highlands is still fine by me. And this time, my parents-in-law, Kenny, Rebecca and Lindy was in tow too. It was a big group and so Lena

Yes, going to Cameron Highlands again. The weather down here in Kuala Lumpur is just way too hot. I think it has not rained for three weeks already. Perhaps global warming is taking its toll on good old Malaysia...This time round, I don't expect any rain up there. So hopefully I could get some good photos of places to go and hopefully got chance to visit MARDI Agrotechnology Park.Kenny and
