旅行的時候，旅伴很重要；好朋友不見得會是好旅伴，好情人不見得會是好旅伴，認識一輩子的家人也不見得會是好旅伴；可以一起去東京逛街購物的人，不見得是可以一起去新疆絲路翻山越嶺的人。
對我來說，一個人要自助旅行，至少要有「照顧自己的能力」、「獨立思考的能力」、「知道你現在在幹嘛的能力」以及「解決問題的能力」，而不只是純粹讓你跟而已；我不是那種可以讓人跟的人，我沒有拿專業領隊或導遊的執照，所以如果你只是想跟，最好的選擇是去跟團，免得到頭來破壞彼此的美好的旅程。
一起旅行的人不對，其實不用10天，10分鐘就可以把旅行的好心情破壞殆盡。
但你也要知道，一起旅行就是要有互相包容的地方，你找到了人陪、有個人說話、有人share住宿費用、多個人幫你找路看地圖、吃餐廳可以邊吃邊聊，所以你也要忍受對方與你不同的生活習慣。如果你不是非常隨和（請注意「隨和」的定義，不是什麼都說「好」、「我都可以啊」、「我沒差」的人就是隨和，這類在出發前「完全沒意見」的人，最後往往是「意見最多的那一個」），建議在旅行前，你們還是討論一下你們該分配的工作吧。
以下幾項，是很可能讓你在國外大打出手，回國後再也不是情人或朋友的原因。
生活作息不同
好不容易來到國外了，有人想要早早起床開始一天的行程，有人卻想要睡到中午才出發，因為不想度假時、反而搞得比上班還要累。建議前一天先說好隔天「幾點要出門」，再斟酌你出門前要花多少時間來梳妝打扮，以訂定自己起床的時間。
想玩的地方不同
有人去國外沒有別的理由，就是要盡情購物與享受美食，但也有人覺得只是買東西吃東西、買東西吃東西的行程很膚淺，應該要多走幾個景點、看看台灣看不到的風景才對。「我要逛街，你偏偏要去爬山」、「我想坐下來好好享用一餐，你卻說吃三明治就好了」，這也是旅行中常常爆發衝突或讓人生悶氣的原因。這是旅遊型態根本上的不同，除非你是很單純地要「帶」人去玩，否則一開始就不應該結伴同行。
把你當導遊
前面有提到，我很害怕行前總是說「沒意見」、「我都好」的人，這就跟老師下課前問「有沒有問題」？而全班都說沒問題，這就是最大的問題一樣。出發之前都說跟你走，後來發現你去的地方好像我都不太喜歡，開始問「那我們怎麼不去那裡啊？」、「這地方好像不錯，怎麼去？」、「現在可以去那裡嗎？」瞬間就變成「什麼都有意見」的人。之前在這篇文章提到，我旅行有我的「want to」，而你的「want to」，不能在我訂定好行程後成為我的「have to」。
把你當地圖
2001年從法國巴黎到里昂旅行時，我的旅伴是個智商有我兩倍的高材生。坐火車抵達之後，從去旅客諮詢中心問資料、確定要去哪裡、看地圖、如何坐車等等都是她問來的，我就是那個「跟著的人」，完全都沒出到力但一路都可以暢行無阻。
後來有一段路走了很久，卻到了一個莫名其妙的地方，她研究地圖才發現完全走錯了路，我抱怨了一句：「妳搞什麼鬼啊 」（對，這個行為非常該死），她看了我一眼，接下來的一整天完全沒跟我講過話。
後來我都是擔任走在前面、拿著地圖、被跟著的那個人，也經歷過走錯路被抱怨的情況，所以我非常了解，當路都是你在找、地圖都是你在看的時候卻被抱怨，你有多想把對方的頭塞進某個人的屁股裡。
如果你對看地圖不是那麼擅長，建議你在旅伴認真看地圖的同時，你可以開始找路上有沒有看起來比較友善的人可以詢問，或是幫忙尋找路標與大型建築物。
把你當人肉翻譯機
有一次在飛機上遇到獨自旅行的台灣女生，英文程度不是很好，但她拿著手上的英文小抄拼命背，上面都是一些很基本的英文單字加中文拼音，例如 pork，她就在旁邊寫上「波克」。她積極找尋著可以講英文的機會，看到空姐很高，就問我用英文怎麼說，我說「tall」，她自信滿滿地說「高應該是 high 吧」，就大聲地跟空姐說「you are so HIGH!!!」（害空姐嚇一跳想說難不成嗑藥被發現了）。後來她翻開機上免稅商品雜誌，跟我說「你看這雜誌好好笑喔，貴的商品還特別寫出來耶！」我看了一眼，發現上面是寫「機上獨家 exclusive」（不是 expensive 喔）。
她一個人在國外玩了兩個禮拜，沒有什麼語言上的不順利。搭機期間遇到需要說英文的狀況，她知道可能會出糗，還是很大方地自己搶著說。語言學得多學得精當然很有用，但更多時候厚臉皮去說會更有用。
因為大部分時候旅伴的語言能力都比我好，我自己沒遇過什麼把我當人肉翻譯機的情況，倒是聽說過很多例子，諸如很沒禮貌的命令句「喂，你跟他說一下…」、「喂，你看一下這上面寫什麼…」，這類的情況若太頻繁出現，都是會令人反感的。出國時，語言不通是一個很大的障礙沒錯，若你的旅伴會講當地語言，那是你的幸運，不要讓他感到那是他的不幸。
對吃飯的要求不同
像我自己並不太注重「吃」這一塊，在日本旅行時，每天都吃類似吉野家的店或是回旅館再泡麵也無所謂。但嚐遍國外美食也是許多人的旅行目的之一，有人喜歡花時間找一家好餐廳好好坐下來，花兩三個小時享受，你若逼他餐餐都邊走邊吃他很可能會不開心；然而也有不少人覺得吃個飯要找餐廳、找到還要等位子，這是在浪費時間。我的建議也是要在行前討論，例如哪家好餐廳不論等多久都一定要吃到（可以的話請事先訂位），乾脆就排進行程，也比較好控制預算（出國的開支除了購物之外，主要就是看你對吃的要求有多高。）。
逛街的品味不同
逛街時我最怕的不是「等別人逛完」，而是「別人等我逛完」，尤其是像忠犬小八一般地站在門口等我，這會讓我非常非常緊張。如果逛街的品味不同，請盡量採取分開逛的策略，例如三個小時後在某個地方集合，之後一起去吃飯，這樣一來吃飯時還可以討論剛剛買了些什麼、你逛到了哪些好東西而我沒逛到、等一下要再去這一類的，這種逛街方式會比「等來等去」好多了。也許你會很有義氣地想說「沒關係，我等你！」（我知道你混的是友情、是義氣，但可以不要在這個時候發揮嗎？）因為被等的那個人，當他拿著一堆衣服看著大排長龍的試衣間，一想到有人還在外面痴痴為你等，都緊張得快尿出來了。
該分開，卻還是在一起
時間不夠用，而各自都有想去的景點，兩個人卻硬是要綁在一起，這又是另一個毀滅的開始。不管是遷就哪一個人的選擇，之後多半都會有些抱怨，如果去到的是一個很爛的地方那更慘，就會被講「看吧，早跟你說這地方不值得來，早知道就該去…」
一個景點值不值得去、該待多久，我又不是天眼通，這些都不是我能預測的。如果真的有很想去的地方，就要捨棄「有人陪」這件事，兩個人分開行動吧。
永遠只會說「怎麼辦」？
人在國外的時候，必須要比在自己熟悉的地方更為提高警覺，因為要擔心東西被偷、水土不服、遇到壞人。當然再怎麼謹慎，還是會遇到大大小小的突發事件，例如我掉過護照和機票、現金不夠、遇到扒手、搭錯車、天黑了還找不到旅館等等。
然而事情總要解決，也一定是可以解決的。對我來說，旅途上的許多意外，都比不上旅伴不停地不停地不停地在我耳邊、唱片跳針似地問我： 「那現在該怎麼辦！？」「那現在該怎麼辦！？」「那現在該怎麼辦！？」來得意外。
遇到問題卻不試著解決問題，怎麼辦？？？你趕快去加入 SHE 吧。
抱怨很多，問題更多。
有些旅伴，總是充滿了問號與驚嘆號。
「明天要去哪？」
「等一下要吃什麼？」
「然後現在咧，現在我們要去哪裡？」
「怎麼這麼貴啊，你算錯錢了吧？」（先墊錢，之後尷尬地討錢還要被懷疑，且讓我寫一個恨字 ）
「這東西好難吃啊！」
「這地方好無聊！」
「這旅館真爛！」
「走太久了吧！」
「天氣太熱了吧！」
還有十萬個為什麼。
「為什麼為什麼為什麼……！？」
而我只有一個句號。
那就是我再也不要跟你出來玩了。。。

Making Glow in the DARK glass jars
Materials:
• Bottle filled with a very small amount of yellow-colored soda (mountain dew or similar)
• Highlighter pens
• Hydrogen Peroxide
• Dishwashing liquid
Step 1: Begin the experiment by adding a few drops of dishwashing liquid to a very small amount of yellow-colored soda.
Step 2: Add one to two tablespoons of hydrogen peroxide. NOTE: For a brighter solution, you may also add fluorescent dye found in highlighters. Just cut small pieces of the highlighter refill and add to the solution.
Step 3: Immediately seal the bottle, and vigorously shake it. Turn off the lights if you want to see a brighter glow.
How does it work?
What you’ve just seen is a chemical reaction called chemiluminescence. Peroxides, with their ability to release large amounts of energy during some chemical reactions with fluorescent liquids or dyes, usually trigger the bright glow. Glow sticks, however, make use of a stronger chemical like phenyl oxalate ester mixed with hydrogen peroxide—that’s why they can glow for a longer period of time.

化療騙局 ─ 化療後腫瘤長得更快！
華盛頓州的一支研究團隊最近在調查為何前列腺癌細胞難以根除時，意外發現了化療的致命真相 ─ 化療不僅一點也不能治療癌症，甚至還會加速癌細胞的生長擴散，使之更難以治癒；也就是說，化療其實有害癌症病患。這項研究結果刊載在《自然醫學》期刊上，毫不意外的被主流科學界所忽略。
根據這項研究，化療會導致健康細胞釋放出一種蛋白質 WNT16B，這種蛋白質會促進癌細胞生長茁壯並阻礙後續治療；化療也會損害健康細胞的 DNA，就算化療停止很長時間之後損害也會一直存在。分析起來，說化療能「治癌」還不如說它根本就會「致癌」！癌症病患的親友應該特別注意。
共同研究作者彼得‧尼爾森表示：「這樣的結果完全出乎意料，良性細胞出現了傷害反應，可能會直接導致腫瘤生長力增強。」這意味著化療的整個過程根本毫無價值，反而不利於癌症病患；那些想要治癒癌症的人應該要尋找更為自然的替代療法，像是格森療法 (Gerson Therapy)，或是從補充抗癌食品和營養素做起，像是小蘇打、薑黃、高劑量的維生素 C 與 D 。
卡魯博士 (Dr.Raghu Kalluri) 發現經常配合化療實用的癌症藥物會導致腫瘤轉移，他表示：「無論怎樣處理腫瘤，都有可能在不經意間增加腫瘤轉移的數目，很多癌症病患因此死亡。」

Prison Break star Wentworth Miller " I'm a gay man "
'I'm a gay man': Prison Break star Wentworth Miller comes out as he takes a stand against Russia's homophobic laws
Television star Wentworth Miller announced he was gay on Wednesday in order to take a public stand against homophobia in Russia.
The Prison Break star declined an invitation to a Russian film festival after the country passed a series of anti-gay laws.
The 41-year-old Prison Break star had been asked to attend the St. Petersburg International Film Festival.
'As a gay man, I must decline,' he wrote in his reply, which was made public by the campaigning group GLAAD.
Must decline: Wentworth Miller, shown in
September 2010 at a film premiere in Japan, announced he was gay on
Wednesday as he declined an invitation to a Russian film festival due to
that country's discriminatory laws against gays
'I am deeply troubled by
the current attitude toward and treatment of gay men and women by the
Russian government,' Wentworth added in his letter.
'The
situation is in no way acceptable, and I cannot in good conscience
participate in a celebratory occasion hosted by a country where people
like myself are being systematically denied their basic right to live
and love openly,' he said.
Wentworth said if circumstances improved he would be free to make a different choice - adding that he had 'a degree of Russian
ancestry' and had enjoyed past visits to the country previously.
Television star: Wentworth, shown at left in
2005 on Prison Break and right in 2010 in Resident Evil: Afterlife, was
championed for taking a stance
The actor was immediately praised by gay rights advocates.
'Wentworth's
bold show of support sends a powerful message to LGBT Russians, who are
facing extreme violence and persecution: you are not alone,' said GLAAD
spokesperson Wilson Cruz in reference to the country's lesbian, gay,
bisexual and transgender community.
'As
people from across the globe continue to speak out against Russia's
horrific law, more celebrities and corporations should follow his
courageous lead in openly condemning Russia's anti-LGBT law,' he added.
Major announcement: Wentworth, shown in March 2008, said he could not in good conscience attend the Russian film festival
Russian President Vladimir Putin in July signed a law banning the adoption of Russian-born children by gay couples.
Putin
in June signed another bill that classified 'homosexual propaganda' as
pornography and provides for fines and arrest for those making it
accessible to minors.
A law passed in 2012 also banned public gay pride events in Moscow for the next 100 years.
The Russian laws have sparked protests in the US where some gay rights advocates have poured Russian vodka in the streets.
The laws also have caused some concern among athlethes who will be heading to Russia for the 2014 Olympic Winter Games.

癌症已经有解：维生素B17
癌症在几十年前早就有解了，只是真相一直被隐瞒， 直到因特网的发展，这个解答才渐渐流传开来。
如果一个人体内有癌症，最重要的就是要在短期内尽可能摄取到最大量的B17。在七百亿美元的化疗工业的今天，依靠癌症讨生活的人数比死于癌症的人还多。
许多医生个人对癌症的观点，与大众所认知的信息， 有如天壤地别。如果他们自己得了癌症，他们不会做化疗！
即使癌细胞对化疗有反应，但是肿瘤局部或完全的缩小，并不会延长病人的存活率。有时候癌症复发反而更加肆虐，因为化疗助长抗疗癌细胞的生成。
毕尔德及克雷布斯父子发现，身体内有许多细胞 还处于原生胚胎期的阶段，这些细胞是用来修复组织的，依照特别的形态遗传刺激，它们可以分化为身体的任何组织、器官、血液、或头发。当我们的身体受到损害，动情激素便会刺激这些细胞 来修复受伤的地方，修复好了则由胰腺酵素来关掉修复工程。如果没有关掉这个修复动作，这些细胞就会因不断地漫无法纪的分裂修复 而形成肿瘤或癌症。
换言之，癌症是身体自己产生的，而非外来物， 而且它可以名正言顺的以修复工程的名义来逃避免疫系统的监视。
工业国家的污染所产生的几万种人造、有害的化学物质，会造成身体的损伤，所损伤的部位创造了修复条件，若此处一直不断地受到伤害，一直不断地修补，要是胰腺酵素不足以关掉该项修补，就决定肿瘤产生的部位。
这时饮食中如有足够的VitB17，它就能提供了身体的第二道防线。
如果免疫系统低落，又没有摄取足够的VitB17， 癌症就慢慢潜伏形成。
美国每年约有800万人住院， 其中有32万人是因为医疗意外造成， 4万人死亡，2万人永久伤害。
当然也有许多医师在其岗位上兢兢业业， 以病人的健康为第一优先。
代谢疗法也可以治疗动物的癌症，野生动物很少得癌症， 现代人饲养的动物因为饮食没有足够的VitB17，所以容易罹癌。常见猫狗生病时，他们都到外面去吃草， 这是动物的本能，我们人类的本能呢？
「杏仁的用法」
克雷布斯Dr. Krebs博士建议成人每日10粒来预防癌症，每日30-50粒为癌症病人的营养补充品。
少数癌症病人吃了杏仁会有恶心反应， 诊疗中心建议减少食用量，让身体适应后再渐渐增加份量。并非所有的杏仁都有效，必须是带点苦味， 才表示确实含有Vit! B17，例如中药中的北杏即含有B17。
其它含丰富VitB17的有：桃子种仁、苹果种籽、美国枣子种仁、李子种仁、樱桃种仁、及油桃种仁。
其它含有B17的食物还包括：小米millet、荞麦buckwhear、夏威夷豆macadamia nuts、竹笋、绿豆、利马豆、青豆、某些品种的豌豆等等。
如果无法买，可由我们日常的食物中摄取，食物中含有胰岛酵素的有木瓜及菠萝。癌症病人最好每天食用木瓜及半个菠萝。
化学合成的维生素C可能有问题，所以最好从食物中摄取，或购买天然植物提炼的维生素C 。医师要求他的病人吃素及改变饮食习惯，不准吃肉，他认为病人已经缺乏胰脏酵素了，不能再吃肉来消耗更多的胰脏酵素，缺乏胰岛酵素，癌症细胞就可以躲过免疫系统的监视。
如果他的病人偷偷吃肉、或回家后继续原来不正常的饮食习惯， 癌症就会复发，病人又回来找他。
如果来得及，他再使用VitB17及代谢疗法治疗病人，病情又好转回家，通常病人这时真的学乖了。不敢再吃动物制品! 古老的中国、希腊、罗马和阿拉伯医生， 用苦杏仁酐治肿瘤，中医传统上用苦杏仁的剂量是3-9公克冲泡，因苦杏仁有毒性，过量可中毒致死。
最方便的来源则是水果的种仁。
癌症为慢性代谢疾病是无庸置疑的。 它不是由病毒或细菌所引发的传染病，而是源于代谢问题，和身体的食物利用有关。大多数的代谢病主要基于食物中缺乏某种特定的维生素物质。
由于饮食中缺乏这种抗癌变的VitB17， 我们的社会每三个家庭就有一个人得癌症。
而实际上的发生率可能更高，原因是等到癌症能被测出来，该病人其实罹癌已经很久了；也有很多病人身上早有癌症，但是在它长到被测出来之前，病人死于意外或其它因素。
慢性及代谢病永远无法从身体之生物经验以外的药物来控制、 预防或治疗。
世界上没有一种药物或化学剂可以让我们更健康、有适应力、更有智慧或更长寿。自然界没有这样的药物或分子，除非那个分子在正常的食物中就已存在。
当我们吃得少，头脑就会清楚一些； 反之，饱食终日后，人就开始胡思乱想，造成生理、心理及灵性的困扰。
野生熊也不得癌症，然而在圣地亚哥动物园内的熊，每十只就有七只得癌症。
因为野生熊是杂食动物，牠们吃很多野莓子，而几乎所有的野生水果都含B17。
我们的食物已经远离自然了，我们吃的水果是多年的改良品种，已缺乏VitB17了。
美国防癌协会的统计数据显示，癌症为美国人的头号杀手(也是台湾民众的第一死因)。
每三人就有一人会得到癌症；若持续发展下去，到下个世纪，癌症的致病率是100%。
「马铃薯生汁疗法---治好疾病的人越来越多」
喝马铃薯生汁治好疾病的人越来越多，据说可以有效控制癌细胞。
该疗法最初由日本禅宗僧侣～富泽知芳师提供，由冀公孙建永搜集整理。
有些人喝不了可加蜂蜜或半个苹果。
重病患者需在医生指导下服用。
每一个看到此偏方的好心人应大力宣传，造福广大民众。
＂进入今年有好几十名癌症患者实行这种疗法，而且有很多患者逐渐康复，甚至有些人本来感到必死无疑了，但后来因此得救。他们纷纷来电告知他们内心的无限喜悦。＂
提倡马铃薯生汁疗法的禅宗僧侣——富泽知芳师在自家接到来自日本全国各地癌症患者的热烈回响，所以再度刊出，马铃薯生汁疗法的临床试验例子。
马铃薯生汁疗法不仅可以治癌，也治好了很多人肝脏病、糖尿病、胃溃疡、肾病、心脏病、高血压、腰痛和肩膀痛等病。还有各式各样其它疾病治愈的患者也陆续出现。如果是正被慢性病所苦的人，请务必尝试。
富泽师有一本著作《健康道——癌症并不可怕》，他说过以下一段话：即使做癌症手术，但可能因为担心会蔓延或者未全部切除干净，反复不断地使用抗癌剂或做放射线疗法。但是却很少听到因此而把癌症治愈的。而且那些治疗的副作用相当大，会使人失去食欲，使身体急剧衰弱下去，与此相对的是，马铃薯生汁疗法完全没有任何副作用，而且可以恢复体力，提高自然治愈力，实在是一种高营养的食品。若长期持续此疗法，就具有抑制癌细胞的神奇力量。
马铃薯生汁疗法没有任何危险，任何人都可以立刻实行，而且在极短时间内就可以实际感受到效果。患部有痛感的人，只要喝过一至二周，痛感就会逐渐减轻，没有痛感的，只要持续一些时间，食欲随即增加，血色好转，体力可以渐渐恢复。
「马铃薯生汁的制作方法」
第一次准备的马铃薯的分量，大个的二、三个，小的三、四个。
1、把马铃薯清洗干净，然后去除马铃薯长芽部分。
【注意：发芽土豆及青色块茎肉，含龙葵碱，可使人中毒，产生严重的胃肠炎症状，用时须谨防之。】
2、再连皮一起（不要去皮）用擦菜板擦碎，擦完后裹入干净纱布或孔较粗的棉质麻布内用力挤出汁来用力挤出汁来。一次可以挤出一杯大约（180-200ml）的生汁。
3、将这些汁每天早晚餐前30-60分钟前空腹喝下。可能的话，在晚餐之前也喝一杯。每次做完立刻喝，而且每日持续才是最重要的。
身体衰弱的人，一次无法喝一杯的人，可以分做几次喝完。或者不喜欢光喝马铃薯生汁的人，可以掺入酵素果汁约30毫升或蜂蜜，苹果榨汁搅拌混匀时喝起来更容易。
【注意：生汁挤出后要立刻喝完，而且每天坚持。连服两周，治疗见效。见效后继续持续服用。】
但是富泽师严厉地告诉患者，不可以把马铃薯生汁当作药物来看。他说：只喝马铃薯生汁但是依然不改变过去纵欲生活的人，可以说就是把马铃薯视同药罐子，当自己已经生病了，但自己却不节制不养生，只是吃药就想轻易治好疾病。我们生病都是事出有因。例如暴饮暴食、喜欢美食、漫无节制的熬夜，都是造成疾病的原因。
只要把过去的生活做一百八十度的大转变即可，此时的马铃薯生汁，才算是真正的起死回生之仙杖。
「马铃薯的营养分析」
马铃薯在欧洲被称做“大地的苹果”，显然是营养价值相当高的食品。尤其含有非常丰富的维他命C和钙，在德国则自古以来即有喝马铃薯擦碎汁治疗胃溃疡和便秘的方法”。
马铃薯含有丰富的维他命C、维他命B、铁、磷和钙。这些维他命或矿物质一旦被体内吸收，血管中的血液就可以畅通无阻。因此，只要持续喝马铃薯生汁的话就可以使血压维持稳定。
马铃薯含的钾能帮助体内的钠排出体外，有利于高血压和肾炎患者的康复。马铃薯还有减肥、和中养胃、健脾利湿，消炎解毒的功效。
另外，马铃薯生汁还对花粉症、湿疹、便秘有显著效果。重症肝病喝马铃薯生汁之后迅速恢复，严重的便秘治好了。喝马铃薯生汁使尿蛋白完全消失了。马铃薯生汁可以增强全身体力。喝马铃薯生汁使胸痛消失不药而愈。另外，肩膀僵硬和酸痛的情形已经不再犯了。
如果一个人体内有癌症，最重要的就是要在短期内尽可能摄取到最大量的B17。在七百亿美元的化疗工业的今天，依靠癌症讨生活的人数比死于癌症的人还多。

其它含丰富VitB17的有：桃子种仁、苹果种籽、美国枣子种仁、李子种仁、樱桃种仁、及油桃种仁。
其它含有B17的食物还包括：小米millet、荞麦buckwhear、夏威夷豆macadamia nuts、竹笋、绿豆、利马豆、青豆、某些品种的豌豆等等。
如果无法买，可由我们日常的食物中摄取，食物中含有胰岛酵素的有木瓜及菠萝。癌症病人最好每天食用木瓜及半个菠萝。
化学合成的维生素C可能有问题，所以最好从食物中摄取，或购买天然植物提炼的维生素C 。医师要求他的病人吃素及改变饮食习惯，不准吃肉，他认为病人已经缺乏胰脏酵素了，不能再吃肉来消耗更多的胰脏酵素，缺乏胰岛酵素，癌症细胞就可以躲过免疫系统的监视。
如果他的病人偷偷吃肉、或回家后继续原来不正常的饮食习惯， 癌症就会复发，病人又回来找他。
如果来得及，他再使用VitB17及代谢疗法治疗病人，病情又好转回家，通常病人这时真的学乖了。不敢再吃动物制品! 古老的中国、希腊、罗马和阿拉伯医生， 用苦杏仁酐治肿瘤，中医传统上用苦杏仁的剂量是3-9公克冲泡，因苦杏仁有毒性，过量可中毒致死。
最方便的来源则是水果的种仁。
癌症为慢性代谢疾病是无庸置疑的。 它不是由病毒或细菌所引发的传染病，而是源于代谢问题，和身体的食物利用有关。大多数的代谢病主要基于食物中缺乏某种特定的维生素物质。
由于饮食中缺乏这种抗癌变的VitB17， 我们的社会每三个家庭就有一个人得癌症。
而实际上的发生率可能更高，原因是等到癌症能被测出来，该病人其实罹癌已经很久了；也有很多病人身上早有癌症，但是在它长到被测出来之前，病人死于意外或其它因素。
慢性及代谢病永远无法从身体之生物经验以外的药物来控制、 预防或治疗。
世界上没有一种药物或化学剂可以让我们更健康、有适应力、更有智慧或更长寿。自然界没有这样的药物或分子，除非那个分子在正常的食物中就已存在。
当我们吃得少，头脑就会清楚一些； 反之，饱食终日后，人就开始胡思乱想，造成生理、心理及灵性的困扰。
野生熊也不得癌症，然而在圣地亚哥动物园内的熊，每十只就有七只得癌症。
因为野生熊是杂食动物，牠们吃很多野莓子，而几乎所有的野生水果都含B17。
我们的食物已经远离自然了，我们吃的水果是多年的改良品种，已缺乏VitB17了。
美国防癌协会的统计数据显示，癌症为美国人的头号杀手(也是台湾民众的第一死因)。
每三人就有一人会得到癌症；若持续发展下去，到下个世纪，癌症的致病率是100%。
「马铃薯生汁疗法---治好疾病的人越来越多」
喝马铃薯生汁治好疾病的人越来越多，据说可以有效控制癌细胞。
该疗法最初由日本禅宗僧侣～富泽知芳师提供，由冀公孙建永搜集整理。
有些人喝不了可加蜂蜜或半个苹果。
重病患者需在医生指导下服用。
每一个看到此偏方的好心人应大力宣传，造福广大民众。
＂进入今年有好几十名癌症患者实行这种疗法，而且有很多患者逐渐康复，甚至有些人本来感到必死无疑了，但后来因此得救。他们纷纷来电告知他们内心的无限喜悦。＂
提倡马铃薯生汁疗法的禅宗僧侣——富泽知芳师在自家接到来自日本全国各地癌症患者的热烈回响，所以再度刊出，马铃薯生汁疗法的临床试验例子。
马铃薯生汁疗法不仅可以治癌，也治好了很多人肝脏病、糖尿病、胃溃疡、肾病、心脏病、高血压、腰痛和肩膀痛等病。还有各式各样其它疾病治愈的患者也陆续出现。如果是正被慢性病所苦的人，请务必尝试。
富泽师有一本著作《健康道——癌症并不可怕》，他说过以下一段话：即使做癌症手术，但可能因为担心会蔓延或者未全部切除干净，反复不断地使用抗癌剂或做放射线疗法。但是却很少听到因此而把癌症治愈的。而且那些治疗的副作用相当大，会使人失去食欲，使身体急剧衰弱下去，与此相对的是，马铃薯生汁疗法完全没有任何副作用，而且可以恢复体力，提高自然治愈力，实在是一种高营养的食品。若长期持续此疗法，就具有抑制癌细胞的神奇力量。
马铃薯生汁疗法没有任何危险，任何人都可以立刻实行，而且在极短时间内就可以实际感受到效果。患部有痛感的人，只要喝过一至二周，痛感就会逐渐减轻，没有痛感的，只要持续一些时间，食欲随即增加，血色好转，体力可以渐渐恢复。
「马铃薯生汁的制作方法」
第一次准备的马铃薯的分量，大个的二、三个，小的三、四个。
1、把马铃薯清洗干净，然后去除马铃薯长芽部分。
【注意：发芽土豆及青色块茎肉，含龙葵碱，可使人中毒，产生严重的胃肠炎症状，用时须谨防之。】
2、再连皮一起（不要去皮）用擦菜板擦碎，擦完后裹入干净纱布或孔较粗的棉质麻布内用力挤出汁来用力挤出汁来。一次可以挤出一杯大约（180-200ml）的生汁。
3、将这些汁每天早晚餐前30-60分钟前空腹喝下。可能的话，在晚餐之前也喝一杯。每次做完立刻喝，而且每日持续才是最重要的。
身体衰弱的人，一次无法喝一杯的人，可以分做几次喝完。或者不喜欢光喝马铃薯生汁的人，可以掺入酵素果汁约30毫升或蜂蜜，苹果榨汁搅拌混匀时喝起来更容易。
【注意：生汁挤出后要立刻喝完，而且每天坚持。连服两周，治疗见效。见效后继续持续服用。】
但是富泽师严厉地告诉患者，不可以把马铃薯生汁当作药物来看。他说：只喝马铃薯生汁但是依然不改变过去纵欲生活的人，可以说就是把马铃薯视同药罐子，当自己已经生病了，但自己却不节制不养生，只是吃药就想轻易治好疾病。我们生病都是事出有因。例如暴饮暴食、喜欢美食、漫无节制的熬夜，都是造成疾病的原因。
只要把过去的生活做一百八十度的大转变即可，此时的马铃薯生汁，才算是真正的起死回生之仙杖。
「马铃薯的营养分析」
马铃薯在欧洲被称做“大地的苹果”，显然是营养价值相当高的食品。尤其含有非常丰富的维他命C和钙，在德国则自古以来即有喝马铃薯擦碎汁治疗胃溃疡和便秘的方法”。
马铃薯含有丰富的维他命C、维他命B、铁、磷和钙。这些维他命或矿物质一旦被体内吸收，血管中的血液就可以畅通无阻。因此，只要持续喝马铃薯生汁的话就可以使血压维持稳定。
马铃薯含的钾能帮助体内的钠排出体外，有利于高血压和肾炎患者的康复。马铃薯还有减肥、和中养胃、健脾利湿，消炎解毒的功效。
另外，马铃薯生汁还对花粉症、湿疹、便秘有显著效果。重症肝病喝马铃薯生汁之后迅速恢复，严重的便秘治好了。喝马铃薯生汁使尿蛋白完全消失了。马铃薯生汁可以增强全身体力。喝马铃薯生汁使胸痛消失不药而愈。另外，肩膀僵硬和酸痛的情形已经不再犯了。
Top 12 Worst Dog Food Brands
Many pet food companies
use the cheapest ingredients they can find. Whether it comes from dead
diseased animals, road kill, or euthanized pets from shelters. These
ingredients are not suitable for human consumption. Do you really want
to feed your dog this? Learn to read ingredients. Or go with a canned
dog food with less fillers and more nutrition. Feeding these foods will
shorten the life of your dog, cause many horrible diseases, seizures,
joint issues, and will be sick more often.
Below is a listing of some of the popular or inexpensive brands that contain harmful, unnecessary and outright dangerous ingredients which are highlighted in red. Not all bad ingredients are in red. (Read at bottom of this page for more) This is not a complete list; unfortunately there are many more brands on the market. Each manufacturer’s website offers a complete ingredient listing and nutritional value analysis of their products. If a specific brand of food is not listed here it does not mean it is bad or good, just check the brand’s website and read the ingredients.
Feeding your pet the same food everyday of its life, will cause many issues. (Liver and kidney failure, diabetes, arthritis and many other illnesses.) These pet foods are lacking certain nutrients. Also many of the ingredients are sourced from China. DO NOT FEED YOUR PET PRODUCTS FROM CHINA! (Includes treats, chew bones, etc.) Buy grain-free to help eliminate allergic reactions. Remember, the top 5 ingredients are the very most important. If they are not good, then you shouldn't feed your pet that.
Dry Foods offer no nutritional value. Canned is better due to more moisture content as it still holds some nutrients.
The best diet you can feed your dog is a Raw diet. Veterinarians were not taught about good nutrition in college. So do your homework. Find a good holistic vet or animal nutritionist that is educated in nutrition. Whatever you do, remember, this is your furry family member. It is your responsibility as a pet parent to give the best foods you can provide to extend his/her quality of life. Which means less visits to the vet.
DOGS ARE CARNIVORES: following the long ancestral history as canids. Pet Food Companies have people believing otherwise since humans eat veggies and fruits so beware.
These foods below have corn as the main ingredient. Use these examples as a comparative guide to what you should not be feeding your dog.
Most of the foods listed below have killed dogs and still are to date!

INGREDIENTS TO AVOID IN COMMERCIAL PET FOODS
WHEAT FLOUR -Wheat is the leading cause of dog allergies.
Absolutely useless with no nutritional value. This is the fine
particles of wheat bran, wheat germ, and the offal from the “tail of the
mill.” “Tail of the mill” means the floor sweepings of leftovers in the
mill after everything has been processed from the wheat.
GROUND YELLOW CORN and CORN GLUTEN MEAL-Full of GMO's and a major reason for allergies in pets as well as causing serious health issues. This is used for a filler and is a useless ingredient in pet foods and is difficult for pets to digest.
FOOD FRAGMENTS – (filler/fiber source/carbohydrate source): BAD OR HARMFUL INGREDIENTS
Low cost by-products and leftovers from another food manufacturing process. Examples include WHEAT MIDDLINGS AND SHORTS, (floor sweepings), WHEAT GERM MEAL, WHEAT BRAN and BREWER’S RICE (a waste product of the alcohol industry).
Also avoid fragments which are labeled POTATO PRODUCT, MIDDLINGS/MIDS or MILL RUN of any kind.

COLORING (Blue 2, Red 40, Yellow 5, Yellow 6, Titanium Dioxide): BAD OR HARMFUL INGREDIENT
Any coloring is completely unnecessary and should be avoided. Your dog doesn’t care about the pretty colored shapes, and artificial dyes and coloring agents are known cancer-causing agents, and also cause allergies. Used in “junk dog food”.
Titanium Dioxide -Potentially carcinogenic artificial color used as white pigment and dough conditioner.
Blue 2 (artificial color)
The color additive FD&C Blue No. 2 is principally the disodium salt of 2-(1,3-dihydro-3-oxo-5-sulfo-2H-indol-2-ylidene)- 2,3-dihydro-3-oxo-1H-indole-5-sulfonic acid with smaller amounts of the disodium salt of 2-(1,3-dihydro-3-oxo-7-sulfo-2H-indol-2-ylidene)-2,3-dihydro-3-oxo-1H-indole-5-sulfonic acid and the sodium salt of 2-(1,3-dihydro-3-oxo-2H-indol-2-ylidene)-2,3-dihydro-3-oxo-1H-indole-5-sulfonic acid. Additionally, FD&C Blue No. 2 is obtained by heating indigo (or indigo paste) in the presence of sulfuric acid. The color additive is isolated and subjected to purification procedures. The indigo (or indigo paste) used above is manufactured by the fusion of N-phenylglycine (prepared from aniline and formaldehyde) in a molten mixture of sodamide and sodium and potassium hydroxides under ammonia pressure. The indigo is isolated and subjected to purification procedures prior to sulfonation.
The largest study suggested, but did not prove, that this dye caused brain tumors in male mice. The FDA concluded that there is "reasonable certainty of no harm", but personally I'd rather avoid this ingredient and err on the side of caution.
Red 40 (artificial color)
The color additive FD&C Red No. 40 is principally the disodium salt of 6-hydroxy-5-[(2-methoxy-5-methyl-4-sulfophenyl)azo]-2-naphthalenesulfonic acid.
The most widely used food dye. While this is one of the most-tested food dyes, the key mouse tests were flawed and inconclusive. An FDA review committee acknowledged problems, but said evidence of harm was not "consistent" or "substantial." Like other dyes, Red 40 is used mainly in junk foods. Personally I'd rather avoid this ingredient and err on the side of caution.
Yellow 5 (artificial color)
The color additive FD&C Yellow No. 5 is principally the trisodium salt of 4,5-dihydro-5-oxo-1-(4-sulfophenyl)-4- [4-sulfophenyl-azo]-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid (CAS Reg. No. 1934-21- 0). To manufacture the additive, 4-amino-benzenesulfonic acid is diazotized using hydrochloric acid and sodium nitrite. The diazo compound is coupled with 4,5-dihydro-5-oxo-1-(4-sulfophenyl)-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid or with the methyl ester, the ethyl ester, or a salt of this carboxylic acid. The resulting dye is purified and isolated as the sodium salt.
The second most widely used coloring can cause mild allergic reactions, primarily in aspirin-sensitive persons.
Yellow 6 (artificial color)
The color additive FD&C Yellow No. 6 is principally the disodium salt of 6-hydroxy-5-[(4-sulfophenyl)azo]-2-naphthalenesulfonic acid (CAS Reg. No. 2783-94-0). The trisodium salt of 3-hydroxy-4-[(4- sulfophenyl)azo]-2,7-naphthalenedisulfonic acid may be added in small amounts. The color additive is manufactured by diazotizing 4-aminobenzenesulfonic acid using hydrochloric acid and sodium nitrite or sulfuric acid and sodium nitrite. The diazo compound is coupled with 6-hydroxy-2-naphthalene-sulfonic acid. The dye is isolated as the sodium salt and dried. The trisodium salt of 3-hydroxy-4-[(4-sulfophenyl)azo]-2,7-naphthalenedisulfonic acid which may be blended with the principal color is prepared in the same manner except the diazo benzenesulfonic acid is coupled with 3-hydroxy-2,7-naphthalenedisulfonic acid.
Industry-sponsored animal tests indicated that this dye, the third most widely used, causes tumors of the adrenal gland and kidney. In addition, small amounts of several carcinogens contaminate Yellow 6. However, the FDA reviewed those data and found reasons to conclude that Yellow 6 does not pose a significant cancer risk to humans. Yellow 6 may also cause occasional allergic reactions. Another ingredient I would rather avoid and err on the side of caution rather than risking my pet's health.

材料：蘿蔔1個，蜂蜜或麥芽糖適量。
作法：將蘿蔔連皮洗淨後切片，放入碗內，再倒入蜂蜜或麥芽糖2~3 匙，浸漬一夜後即溶成蘿蔔糖水，然後頻頻飲用，適用於熱咳、燥咳的症狀。

十種小病要人命
1. 睡覺流口水，不僅僅是可愛
你會為你睡覺時流口水而不好意思嗎？這可不是可愛或不衛生那麼簡單。它可能是由於你的神經調節障礙而引起的。唾液分泌的調節，完全是神經反射性的。 常說的“望梅止渴”，就是日常生活中，條件反射性唾液分泌的一個例子。除此之外，口腔內的衛生沒有打掃好，也會出現流口水的現象。口腔裡的溫度和濕度最適 合細菌的繁殖，炎症、睡覺流口水，也是在提醒你，小心牙周病，要去看牙醫了！
2. 腳有些腫？不可輕視
最近腳有些腫，還伴隨著痛癢……這個看似尋常的症狀，可不能小瞧。它很有可能是在對你說“你的靜脈出了問題！”腳腫了，往往是由於靜脈栓塞而引起 的，及時看醫生的話就沒什麼事，不然很可能導致下肢浮腫，甚至會引發肺栓塞，影響到你的生命安危。靜脈中的一些小血管被堵塞住了，血液就回流不暢，才會出 現腳腫的症狀。所以你可不能掉以輕心。如果你的腳腫，通過按摩不僅無法退下去，反而越來越嚴重的話，就要引起高度重視了。
3. 視力減退的幕後黑手
最近的工作忙到想吐，你整夜整夜地在電腦前加班，視力明顯下降。你要當心了！眼睛經常發花、眼角乾澀、看不清東西，這可是肝臟功能衰弱的先兆。如果 按一按肝臟的四周，會有發脹的感覺，就十有八九是肝臟出了問題。這時除了及時就醫外，還要注意用眼衛生，不要讓眼睛太過疲勞，用眼不當會影響到肝臟。
4. 瘢痕變化，不良的徵兆
如果你身上的一些慢性皮膚病， 如燒傷或外傷後的瘢痕疙瘩，或慢性皮炎等，最近忽然發生了一些莫名其妙的變化，你可一定要提高警惕了。若經過治療，這些病變反而增大，或者破潰、變硬、變 厚、色素加深、角化過度甚至出血，這時，應該警惕有皮膚癌的可能。並且，如果皮膚上出現了一些硬硬的隆起的小腫塊，還老是下不去的話，就必須要到專科醫院 檢查了。
5. 小心你下垂的眼瞼
剛到了三十歲，成熟性感的年齡，怎麼眼皮卻越來越厚重，還忽然有些下垂呢？你可要擔心了，不能只想到去美容院，它是許多疾病的早期症狀。“重症肌無 力”這種病的先兆就是緩慢發生的眼瞼下垂。先是一隻眼，後是另一隻眼，早晨輕，晚上重，一天之內有明顯的波動性。比較嚴重可怕的還有顱內動脈瘤。如果你的眼瞼下垂是一側性、突然的，瞳孔散大，應立即到神經科搶救。聽起來實在是有些駭人。
6. 彩圈--失明的先兆
你在看燈光時，發現燈光周圍出現彩圈？別覺得新奇，這可不是你的特異功能。它預示著你，可能患上了閉角型青光眼。閉角型青光眼是一種常見的、可以導致失明的眼病，早期症狀是出現虹視，就是這種看見彩圈的現象。彩圈近看較小，遠看較大，紫色在內，紅色在外。
7. “胃口大開”的隱患
突然胃口大開，但體重卻隨著進食的增多而減輕了，排尿量也隨著喝水次數的增加而明顯增多。去醫院一檢查，發現“食欲大增”的背後竟然隱藏著糖尿病。此外，皮質醇增多症、肥胖性生殖無能症等，也可以讓你出現胃口大開、食量猛增的現象。因此，如果你最近食欲好得有些不尋常，還是早早去醫院全面檢查的好。
8. 胃痛，還是心臟病？
你患過胃病，所以這次，竟把心臟病的先兆當成了胃疼！要知道，這可是一個重要的報警。與一般的胃病不同，心臟病引起的胃痛很少會出現絞痛和劇痛，壓痛也不常有，只是有一種憋悶、脹滿的感覺，有時還伴有鈍痛、火辣辣的灼熱感及噁心欲吐感。
9. 悄悄變化的美人痣
我們的身體在發生變化時，總是會有各種各樣的徵兆，只要你懂得愛惜自己。在痣發生惡變，成為惡性黑色素瘤時，有這樣一些報警：1、痣在近時期內迅速增大；2、痣表面出現糜爛甚至發生破潰且有瘙癢感；3、痣周圍原先平坦無異，新近出現小黑點、衛星結節狀組織，或附近淋巴結腫大且伴黑色。
10.別讓汗濕了你的手心
手心出汗，可不是在說你身體好，特別是年輕人。女性手心會發熱，還很有可能得了慢性腎盂腎炎。前期一般有持續性或間歇性手心發熱、出汗，或伴有全身發熱。

28 Reasons To Love Taipei, maybe not
1. Family Mart, 7-Eleven, and other convenience stores have everything.
One of the highest per capita concentrations of convenience stores on earth. Where else can you pay your college tuition, eat dinner, print Mayday concert tickets, send express mail, and buy a handle of Johnny Walker at 4:30 a.m.?
2. Before every election, the streets look like this:
The perils of democracy and advertising. Look nice? horrible? Your taste....
3. Taipei has the coolest cafés.
Eat it, Seattle. Boomers worry that today’s Taipei kids don’t want to conquer the world — they just want to open cafés with their friends. Coffee shops are basically bars in Taipei. Check out Sugared n Spiced for some choice spots.
4. Eslite Dunnan is the world’s only 24-hour bookstore.
Saturday night people-watching at Eslite Bookstore Dunnan is never a bad way to sober up. Time magazine named it Asia’s best bookstore in 2004, after that (2004) it never been mention by anyone~~~~
5. Karaoke is a 24/7 sport too or entertainment?
A 12-floor palace devoted to karaoke? Sure. Cashbox Partyworld does brisk business on typhoon holidays.
6. Shrimping’s also 24/7.
Possibly the weirdest gastro-sport ever. Time to bust out your jorts and six-pack (of delicious Taiwan Beer). Great for time wasting, if only you are local....
7. You won’t recognize 50% of the things sold at your local market.
Is that a crab or a cursed alien slipper? Why is that chicken blue? Guess the author eitehr seldom go local market or live in a place (high mountain) where seafood is not available.
8. Beef noodle soup is Taipei’s official religion.
Taipei hosts a Beef Noodle Soup Festival every year. Everyone swears a blood oath to their favorite shops. If you don’t like beef noodle soup, you are a disgusting pervert and I don’t want to know you.
9. Yonghe has the best breakfast, maybe?
Sweet soy milk and fried Chinese doughnuts forever.IMO 阜杭豆漿is a lot better than 永和 for breakfast.. The 45 min - 1 hour wait that the locals endure is testimony to their awesomeness. They used to only open from 6am - 10am but have since extended their business hours to 12.30 after they moved to a larger location with more seats.
10. There’s a great bar called That Fucking Place.
“You have checked in to That Fucking Place on Foursquare.”There's a great bar called That Fucking Place.
11. There’s a toilet-themed restaurant.
Please kindly invite your friends to eat shit. Modern Toilet offers enticing fare like “baby’s explosive diarrhea” (actually just green curry) served in mini toilet bowls. There's a toilet-themed restaurant.note: we have here in Malaysia too (sg.Wang Plaza) and there's one in ShenZhen (Dong Meng), China
12. You can also dine at prison-, Barbie-, and hospital-themed restaurants.
Keep Taipei weird, yall.
13. Yongkang Street is a great place to get your Asian retro-chic on.
Antiquing central. And James’ Kitchen is arguably the best Taiwanese restaurant in town.
14. Zhongxiao has all the modernity you can want.
15. Taipei is the Chinese pop/indie music capital.
From C-pop megastars to symphonic metal, hip-hop, post-rock, and folk singer-songwriters, Taipei exports the best Mandarin pop music in the world. You’ll also catch bands like Neutral Milk Hotel at surprisingly small venues (The Wall and Legacy). For schedules, check GigGuide Taiwan.
16. There’s always some design or music festival.
Formoz, Simple Life, Huashan, Hohaiyan beach festival. Tizzy Bac speaking their minds.
17. The clubbing scene’s no slouch either.
Decidedly less douchey than clubbing in many other big cities. Every year there’s a new club du jour, but Luxy was your first fake-ID love.
18. There’s a whole street devoted to wedding photographers.
Chungshan North Road Section 2. I have never seen this in any other city. Keep. Taipei. Weird.Its really weird, they have that in Las Tunas Dr. in Temple City, CA and in Malaysia (PJ SS2), you should travel more around the world if you found it weird.
19. Yangmingshan National Park is a bus ride away.
On the rare occasion the sun’s out, you can take day hikes on a whim.
20. Ximending is cosplayers and otakus galore.
Get your gothic loli on. But don't expect to see it everyday or during weekend, you gotta be lucky. You actually see more gays (local & foreigner) then cosplayers there!
21. The garbage trucks sing to you.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=uuIDKMTRg8o22. If you piss off the students, you WILL hear from them.
Flawed democracy is still democracy. Read. And not just the srudents~~~
23. GuangHua is basically a Tatooine junkyard of electronic bargains.
Brave the clouds of nerd-sweat at GuangHua for a steal on a new computer. Bring your haggling A-game. (Also, RIP old GuangHua.) Not really for tourist, the products price not much different in your own comtry even for their local brand (Acer /Asus) price doesn't look attractive.
24. Night markets. All of them.
Imagine hundreds of street-food carts and pop-up stores crammed in 10 city blocks. Everyone goes to Shilin, but Shida has the coolest stuff. Too bad the government’s scaling it down. And you see it one, you see it all, they are all he same with different name and location.
25. Beitou has great hot-spring spas.
The northern suburbs appeal to the geriatric in us all.
26. Sick of the rainy north? You can get to Kenting Beach in four hours…
27. Taipei 101 has one of the best New Year’s fireworks.
Camping out at a park near Taipei 101 with your friends, drinking 7-Eleven whiskey, watching fireworks, then seeing the flag-raising ceremony at sunrise at the Presidential Palace = best way to start a year.Best New Year’s fireworks? It's over rated, you mostly see a of large fire pillar with lots of smoke :) I would say the of of the best environment and friendly people but definitely not the firework!
28. F O O D
http://travel.cnn.com/explorations/eat/40-taiwanese-food-296093
Food is good. I like food. Everyone and their mothers’ dogs have a food blog in Taipei. A Hungry Girl’s Guide to Taipei is a good place to start. But friendly speaking, Malaysia have more varieties of food (almost any food you can fidn in Taipei/Taiwan, you can find in KL, Malaysia) than Taipei can offer and taste better too not to mention much cheaper too.
