Mango Banana Enzyme

Hi everybody, it has been sometime since I last update my blog in Decemeber 2009. This time I would like to introduce you the Mango Banana Enzyme. If you, just like me, do not like green banana, you may try leaving it out. I have just harvested last week my mango enzyme without the banana. All of us including the kids like it a lot. It smells nice, tastes sweet and also very refreshing. If anyone ever try adding the green banana please let me know your comment. Kids below 3 years old are not advisable to drink enzyme. Those above 3, can drink only half dose, that is to say instead of the usual 30 ml of enzyme with 10 times of water, is only allowed 15 ml of enzyme with 10 times of water.

INGREDIENTS

Mango 500g
Green Banana 400g
Dried Fig 100g
Liquid Oligo 15 tbsp
Pure Poly Floral Honey 250g / 1/4 bottle

2. Divide ingredients into 3 portions. Stack ingredients in sequence; dried figs, green bananas, mangoes, Oligo and Pure Poly Floral Honey into the glass jar. Repeat the process with theremaining 2 portions.
   
3. Seal tight with food wrap after the 3 portions of ingredients are completely stacked in. Cover with a lid. Keep in a dry cool place for 2 weeks and enzyme is ready.

BENEFITS

During ancient time, the Chinese consume mango to treat seasickness, nausea and weak digestion. It is rich in carotenoids; powerful antioxidants that neutralize free radicals and help in lowering cholesterol. Green banana activates growth of stomach-lining cells that protect against stomach ulcers, whereas fig is beneficial for digestion and cancer prevention.


Extra Knowledge

People consuming diets rich in carotenoids from natural foods, such as fruits and vegetables, are healthier and have lower mortality from a number of chronic illnesses.
