MADNING EFFECT OF THE SOCIAL MEDIA ON THE GENERAL MASSES

The excesses of the power of the Social Media on the Masses is devastating!
It often makes the wise to be foolish.
The prudent to be imprudent.
The educated to act ignorant
The list is unending. I'll illustrate this as a herd of goats being taken to the field to be fed..
They always follow the very direction the herdsman signals them to follow, haba!

Nathaniel Bassey persuading the people to inscribe 'JESUS' on their Platform, am l included ?No nawh!
How could he tell me to publicize the name of who l know not?
Abomination!!!
-- If he had told me to inscribe "JESUS CHRIST" ...then, Yes, l'll jump to that persuasion,, because l know this very Jesus - The JESUS with CHRIST. Indivisible!
This one "JESUS CHRIST"
is worthy of being publicized because He's a Great Being. The LORD Himself? Amazingly, No One ever existed shares that name fully as such with HIM !
That name "Jesus Christ" carries Volcanic POWER, such that can turn around any situation, no matter how adverse it omay has been.
Interestingly, this very great being happens also to be the name of my own LORD and personal SAVIOUR !
Nathaniel Bassey, please next time you want to move the masses, make sure you do that so that we may know the very one you mean, without disguisingly leading the people, including the ignorant to the wrong place. Some people needed to be held by their hands to the real place, biko
Now if l may ask, which of the Jesus are you telling them to stuck at their Platforms?
Is it :

* Jesus Navarro - A 34 yrs old founder and lead Singer of a Mexican Band? or

* Jesus Corona - A 29 yrs Mexican professional footballer that plays for FC Porto in Portugal? or

* Jesus Oviedo - A 21 yrs old Spanish Pop Singer who along with his twin brother Daniel Oviedo formed a Musical group - 'Gemeliers' ? or

* Gabriel Jesus - A 25yrs old Brazilian professional footballer who plays for Manchester football club and Brazil National Team as a striker This one even has Jesus as his surname which further extends the number of the Jesus-es

Some people here may argue my stand to say that the inscribers knows in their hearts the 'Jesus' that they're inscribing... If you know, how are you sure that that other fellow inscribing also know?
Confusion Everywhere!
I beg y' all, we should be very careful and meticulous in dispatching the things of the spirit, for the sake of babes that are still feeding on milks in the spiritual things .... they're to be spoon-fed in savoring the 'Real Food'
Do Not Derail these ones, please NATHANIEL.

KING OF BITTERS (Andrographis paniculata)

Andrographis is a plant that is native to South Asian countries such as India and Sri Lanka. The leaf and underground stem are used to make medicine.

Andrographis paniculata (King of bitters), commonly known as Kalmegh is belongs to the family of Acanthaceae. . It is extensively used in indigenous system of medicines as home remedy for various diseases in Bangladeshi traditional system. It is used to treat hepatitis, gastrointestinal tract and upper respiratory infections, fever, herpes, and a variety of other chronic and infectious diseases. Andrographis paniculata possess hepatoprotective, anti-inflammatory, immunostimulatory, antipyretic, antioxidant, hypotensive, antibacterial activities. Andrographis paniculata contains steroids, phenols, terpenoids, alkaloids, saponins, flavonoids were the active compounds present in the plant. The medicinal value of this plant is due to the presence of active ingredients viz andrographolide and neoandrographolide which are derivatives of diterpenoids.
Andrographis is also used as an astringent, bacteria killing agent, painkiller, fever reducer, and treatment for worms.
When taken by mouth: Andrographis is LIKELY SAFE when taken appropriately for up to 12 months. It also appears to be safe when taken as a specific combination product containing andrographis extract and eleuthero for 4-7 days. Andrographis can cause side effects such as loss of appetite, diarrhea, vomiting, rash, headache, runny nose, and fatigue. When used in high doses, andrographis might cause swollen lymph glands, serious allergic reactions, elevations of liver enzymes, and other side effects
Some Internet vendors offer andrographis products that contain extra amounts of an active ingredient called andrographolide. Some of these products are almost 30% andrographolide. However, be careful; the safety and effectiveness of andrographis preparations with high andrographolide content are unknown.
Sow Andrographis paniculata seeds just below the surface of a well drained seed raising mix and keep moist until germination in 1-3 weeks. Likes a part shade to sunny position, adequate soil moisture and a rich friable soil with good drainage. Pinch out flowers to encourage more foliage growthwill even thrive in poor soil. Shady conditions will promote leaf growth and slow flowering and seed production. Start early in greenhouse and transplant out after frost. Space plants 2 feet apart–they become quite bushy when really happy.

LEMON BALM

Lemon balm (Melissa officinalis) is a perennial herbaceous plant in the mint family and native to south-central Europe, the Mediterranean Basin, Iran, and Central Asia, but now naturalized elsewhere
It grows to a maximum height of 100 cm (39 in). The leaves have a mild lemon scent. During summer, small white flowers full of nectar appear. It is not to be confused with bee balm (genus Monarda), although the white flowers attract bees, hence the genus Melissa (Greek for "honey bee").

The leaves are used as a herb, in teas, and also as a flavouring. The plant is used to attract bees for honey production. It is grown as an ornamental plant and for its oil (to use in perfumery). The tea of lemon balm, the essential oil, and the extract are used in traditional and alternative medicine, including aromatherapy. Lemon balm has been cultivated at least since the 16th century. Modern research is being conducted to establish the safety and effects of the plant on humans.
The medicinal use of lemon balm can be dated to over 2000 years ago through the Greeks and the Romans. It is mentioned by the Greek polymath Theophrastus in his Historia Plantarum, written in c.300 BC, as "honey-leaf" Lemon balm was formally introduced into Spain in the 7th century, from which its use and domestication spread throughout Europe. Its use in the Middle Ages is noted by herbalists, writers, philosophers, and scientists. The Swiss physician and alchemist Paracelsus called it the "elixir of life". He believed that lemon balm had the power to restore health and vitality.

Traditionally, an alchemical tincture of lemon balm was the first tincture an aspiring alchemist made. In traditional Austrian medicine, officinalis leaves have been prescribed as a herbal tea, or as an external application in the form of an essential oil, for the treatment of disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, nervous system, liver, and bile.
Lemon balm is the main ingredient of Carmelite water, which is sold in German pharmacies.In alternative medicine it is proposed to be a sleep and digestive aid.

The plant is grown and sold as an ornamental plant, and for attracting bees. The essential oil is used as a perfume ingredient.It is used in toothpastes.

Lemon balm is used as a flavouring in ice cream and herbal teas

Lemon balm seeds require light and a minimum temperature of 20 °C (68 °F) to germinate. The plant grows in clumps and spreads vegetatively (a new plant can grow from a fragment of the parent plant), as well as by seed. In mild temperate zones, the plant stems die off at the start of the winter, but shoot up again in spring. Lemon balm grows vigorously.

Senna alata is an important medicinal tree, as well as an ornamental flowering plant in the subfamily Caesalpinioideae. It also known as emperor's candlesticks,candle bush,candelabra bush, Christmas candles, empress candle plant, ringworm shrub, or candletree. A remarkable species of Senna, it was sometimes separated in its own genus, Herpetica.

Senna alata is native to most of the Neotropics (from Mexico and the West Indies to Paraguay), and can be found in diverse habitats. In the tropics, it grows up to an altitude of 1,200 metres (3,900 ft). It is an invasive species in Austronesia distributed in ranges from India to America. These plants have a greater ornamental and medicinal value in the southeast Asia, North Australia and African ranges.

The shrub stands 3–4 metres (9.8–13.1 ft) tall, with leaves 50–80 centimetres (20–31 in) long.
The leaves close in the dark.
The inflorescence looks like a yellow candle.
The fruit, shaped like a straight pod, is up to 25 cm long. Its seeds are distributed by water or animals.
The seed pods are nearly straight, dark brown or nearly black, about 15 centimetres (5.9 in) long, and 15 millimetres (0.59 in) wide. On both sides of the pods is a wing that runs the length of the pod. Pods contain 50 to 60 flattened, triangular seeds
This species is easy to grow from the seed. They may either be sown directly or started in a nursery.

Senna alata (also known as Cassia alata) is often called the ringworm bush because of its very effective fungicidal properties, for treating ringworm and other fungal infections of the skin. The leaves are ground in a mortar to obtain a kind of "green cotton wool". This is mixed with the same amount of vegetable oil and rubbed on the affected area two or three times a day. A fresh preparation is made every day. Its active ingredients include the yellow chrysophanic acid.
Its laxative effect, due to its anthraquinone content, is also well proven.
Senna alata is locally known as akapulko in the Philippines where it is used as both an ornamental and medicinal plant due to its laxative, purgative and anti-fungal properties.
In Sri Lanka, known as Ath-thora, it is used as an ingredient in Sinhala traditional medicine.

Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) is an annual plant of the daisy family, Asteraceae. It is most often grown as a leaf vegetable, but sometimes for its stem and seeds. Lettuce is most often used for salads, although it is also seen in other kinds of food, such as soups, sandwiches and wraps; it can also be grilled.[3] One variety, the celtuce (asparagus lettuce) (t: 萵苣; s: 莴苣; woju), is grown for its stems, which are eaten either raw or cooked. In addition to its main use as a leafy green, it has also gathered religious and medicinal significance over centuries of human consumption. Europe and North America originally dominated the market for lettuce, but by the late 20th century the consumption of lettuce had spread throughout the world. World production of lettuce and chicory for 2017 was 27 million tonnes, 56% of which came from China.
Lettuce was originally farmed by the ancient Egyptians, who transformed it from a plant whose seeds were used to create oil into an important food crop raised for its succulent leaves and oil-rich seeds. Lettuce spread to the Greeks and Romans; the latter gave it the name lactuca, from which the English lettuce is derived. By 50 AD, many types were described, and lettuce appeared often in medieval writings, including several herbals. The 16th through 18th centuries saw the development of many varieties in Europe, and by the mid-18th century cultivars were described that can still be found in gardens.

Generally grown as a hardy annual, lettuce is easily cultivated, although it requires relatively low temperatures to prevent it from flowering quickly. It can be plagued by numerous
Lettuce grows best in full sun in loose, nitrogen-rich soils with a pH of between 6.0 and 6.8. Heat generally prompts lettuce to bolt, with most varieties growing poorly above 24 °C (75 °F); cool temperatures prompt better performance, with 16 to 18 °C (61 to 64 °F) being preferred and as low as 7 °C (45 °F) being tolerated.[31] Plants in hot areas that are provided partial shade during the hottest part of the day will bolt more slowly. Temperatures above 27 °C (81 °F) will generally result in poor or non-existent germination of lettuce seeds.[31] After harvest, lettuce lasts the longest when kept at 0 °C (32 °F) and 96 percent humidity. Lettuce quickly degrades when stored with fruit such as apples, pears and bananas that release the ripening agent ethylene gas. The high water content of lettuce (94.9 percent) creates problems when attempting to preserve the plant – it cannot be successfully frozen, canned or dried and must be eaten fresh.[32] In spite of its high water content, traditionally grown lettuce has a low water footprint, with 237 liters of water required for each kilogram of lettuce produced.[33] Hydroponic growing methods can reduce this water consumption by nearly two orders of magnitude.
Health benefits of Lettuce
Lettuce leaves are one of the very low-calorie green vegetables. 100 g fresh greens provide just 15 calories. Nonetheless, they are the storehouse of many phytonutrients that possess health-promoting and disease prevenation properties.

Vitamins in lettuce are plentiful. Its fresh leaves are an excellent source of several Vitamin-A and β-carotenes. Just 100 g of fresh, raw-lettuce provides 247% daily values of vitamin-A, and 4,443 µg of β-carotene (Carotenes convert into vitamin-A in the body; 2 µg of carotene is considered equivalent to 1 IU of vitamin-A). These compounds possess strong antioxidant properties. Vitamin A is required for maintaining healthy mucosa and skin and is also essential for vision. Consumption of natural fruits and vegetables rich in flavonoids helps to protect the body from lung and oral cavity cancers.

It is a rich source of vitamin-K. Vitamin-K has a potential role in bone metabolism where it thought to increase bone mass by promoting osteoblastic activity in the bone cells. It also has an established role in the Alzheimer's disease patients by limiting neuronal damage in the brain.

Fresh leaves contain good amounts folates and vitamin C. Folates are part of co-factors in the enzyme metabolism required for DNA synthesis and therefore, play a vital role in the prevention of neural tube defects in the baby (fetus) during pregnancy.

Vitamin C is a powerful natural antioxidant; regular consumption of foods rich in vitamin-C helps the body develop resistance against infectious agents and scavenge harmful, pro-inflammatory free radicals.

Zeaxanthin (1730 µg per 100 g), an important dietary carotenoid in lettuce, is selectively absorbed into the retinal macula lutea, where it thought to provide antioxidant and filter UV rays damaging the retina. Diet rich in xanthin and carotenes are believed to offer some protection against age-related macular disease (ARMD) in the older adults.

It also contains healthy amounts of minerals like iron, calcium, magnesium, and potassium, which are very much essential for body metabolism. Potassium is an important component of cell and body fluids that helps controlling heart rate and blood pressure. The body uses manganese as a co-factor for the antioxidant enzyme, superoxide dismutase. Copper required in the production of red blood cells. Iron is essential for red blood cell formation.

It is rich in the B-complex group of vitamins like thiamin, vitamin B-6 (pyridoxine), riboflavins.

Regular inclusion of lettuce in diet is known to prevent osteoporosis, iron-deficiency anemia, and believed to protect from cardiovascular diseases, ARMD, Alzheimer's disease and cancers
