Be aware of Maggi

Many of us can't do without " Maggi " especially when one is away from home, in
a foreign land. Here is a piece of information to share so that we can remove
the potential health hazard of consuming Maggi.

Maybe you should print this e-mail to keep as a reminder, pin it up in the
kitchen or dining room as reminder or in your purse if you are always
travelling.

DO NOT IGNORE THIS ... Especially those fond of Maggi...

'
CORRECT WAYOF COOKING NOODLES'
The correct way to cook instant noodles without harming our bodies and health:

Normally, how we cook the instant noodles is to put the noodles into a pot with
water, throw in the powder and let it cook for around 3 minutes and then it's
ready to eat.

This is the WRONG method of cooking the instant noodles.

By doing this, when we actually boil the ingredients in the powder,normally with
MSG, it will change the molecular structure of the MSG, causing it to be toxic.

The other thing that you may or may not realize is that, the noodles are coated
with wax and it will take around 4 to 5 days for the body to excrete the wax
after you have eaten the noodles.

CORRECT METHOD:

1. Boil the noodles in a pot of water.

2. Once the noodles are cooked, take out the noodles, and throw away the water
which contains wax.

3. Boil another pot of water, add the cooked noodles into the hot boiling water
and then turn off the stove.

4. Only at this stage when the stove is off, and while the water is very hot,
add the flavouring powder into the water, to make noodle soup.

5. However, if you need dry noodles, remove the noodles and add the flavouring
powder and toss it to get dry noodles.

Dietician's Note:
If you buy plain hakka noodles which you make, you initially need to boil in
water and discard the water. This will soften the noodles but to prevent it from
sticking we need to add a tbsp of oil and also the noodles are deep fried
partially to make them crunchy and then dusted with flour to prevent them from
sticking while boiling. Hence when you buy the noodles they are already made
unhealthy and this is the type we use to make stir fry noodles and the regular
Maggie too is made the same way, plus they add MSG / Ajinomoto and other
chemical preservatives.

A large number of patients with ages ranging from 18-24 years are ending up with
pancreatitis either as a swelling or infection of the pancreasdue to regular
consumption of instant noodles... If the frequency is more than 3 times a week,
then it is very hazardous...

Please share this info and help save a life.
