YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT


User Image

“You are what you eat” this is what we have and what we hear on a regular basis. Health is the most precious gift bestowed upon us and we tend to ignore the signs our body gives regarding our health.

As a kid there was no complications or confusions regarding food. Eat what was served was the only mantra. Whereas now a days food options are vast. There are number of diets and varieties of food available in the market which is overwhelming. The ignorance towards the principles of healthy life is the main cause for ill health. Most of the health problems are caused due to poor food habits and poor lifestyles. Balanced diet, adequate exercise and mental equilibrium leads to a happy and healthy life.

We eat today judging the food by its appearance, taste and convenience rather than understanding its health factor. This habit becomes difficult to change or adjust at later stage, hence cultivating a good eating habit from an early stage is very important. The sooner we start the better. Eating refined, processed and preserved food has become a day to day habit for many without even realising that this would be the reason for many health issues. The word Diet now has been just limited to weight loss or muscle gain. The importance of nutrients, vitamins, antioxidants, fiber, carbohydrates, probiotics have been generously ignored. A balanced diet is very important to maintain all the vital functions of the body and to improve immunity against common diseases.

Some healthy tips to eat right are as below

1. Plan Your Meals Ahead- We always end up having outside food when we are hungry and have nothing healthy to eat, so plan your meals in advance. Carry healthy snacks while travelling for work.
2. Eating Right- Always focus on your food while eating, chew them thoroughly, eat while hungry and always check the portion size.
3. Drink Water- Always have water instead of sodas or sugary juices, they might spike your energy levels the moment you have them but then result in causing lethargy.

Remember, we eat to live a healthy life the food that goes to our body is going to decide how healthy we would be in coming years. So always think, plan and make healthy choices.



FIGHTING COMMON COLD NATURALLY


User Image

With the change in weather, sneeze, coughs and runny nose are in full swing. The viral in the air have been activated and immunity levels have drop down. Our daily activities, physical and mental well-being gets affected. So let us learn more about the Common Cold and building our immunity to help us heal naturally.

COLD
There are 100 different types of viruses and if even one gets into the body we catch cold. Once a cold virus attacks the body, our immune system launches a counter attack to defend the body. This response from the body is in the form of cough, stuffed nose, runny nose and headaches. The common cold infects the upper respiratory system. These viruses are contagious. We can contract them when someone affected sneezes, coughs, or even by touching infected surfaces. Because there are 200 sub types of viruses that can cause cold, our body can rarely build resistance to all of them. Hence the name common cold, it often returns with the SNEEZE. According to CDC (Centre for Disease Control and Prevention), adults get 2-3 colds and children get around 12 colds per year.


Cold results in sneeze, headache, runny nose, sore throat and fever. A strong immune system will help to recover from cold without medication. The lower the
immunity, the longer the healing process.

NATURAL REMEDIES THAT HEAL COLD

1. Take 1 inch ginger, one clove garlic, 3 peppercorns, 2 cloves, 2 cardamoms, and one inch cinnamon stick, mash and boil in water. Reduce to half, strain and add honey. Drink this concoction twice or thrice.
2. Do not over eat - When sick, body needs time to heal do not over eat and give time for body to heal.
3. Hydrate- Drink plenty of fluids because cold leads to water loss from body, increasing the chances of dehydration. Soups are a good way to increase consumption of fluids during cold.
4. Raw turmeric drink- Boil ½ inch raw turmeric or ¼ tsp turmeric powder in a cup of water for 5 min, add honey and drink this. Curcumin in turmeric, help increase immunity. The antiviral and antibacterial properties of turmeric help fight infections
5. Steam inhalation- Boil water in open vessel; add 2 drops of eucalyptus oil. Cover head with a towel and slowly inhale. Do this morning and evening for 10 minutes. This helps cure blocked and stuffy nose and chest congestion.
6. Rest- When we limit our screen time and mobility, body gets more resources to fight cold. Do not exert. Breathing exercise, relaxation and walking are good to help the body fight cold.

Stay healthy and strong.

Myths related to Nutrition


User Image


Avoid dairy when you have a cold
FALSE
Milk does not cause mucus production. Due to the creamy texture of milk, some people feel that there is a temporary coating over the mouth and throat after drinking milk. This is not mucus – it’s just the natural sensation of drinking milk and only lasts for a short period of time.

Raw vegetables are always better than cooked vegetables
FALSE

Not always. The amount of nutrients you get from vegetables can differ for a number of reasons, such as how long you store them and how (or if) you cook them. Although cooking vegetables can lose nutrients, cooking can sometimes increase the amount of nutrients available to the body. An example of this is the antioxidant lycopene in tomatoes. Cooking tomatoes releases more lycopene than is available in raw tomatoes. Loss of nutrients can occur in cooking because some vitamins, like Vitamins B and C dissolve in water. Some can be lost if the vegetables are boiled for too long. Steaming or stir-frying helps retain the vitamins when you cook vegetables. The fact of the matter is vegetables are powerhouses of nutrition, no matter which way you eat them. Whether raw or cooked, three to five serves of vegetables a day are recommended in a healthy diet.

Brown sugar is better for you than white sugar
FALSE
The only difference between brown and white sugar is that brown sugar contains molasses, which has a caramel aroma and flavour, while white sugar has been refined to remove the molasses. Both of these sugars provide the same amount of energy (kilojoules), so the truth is that your body can’t really tell the difference.

People with diabetes need to avoid sugar
FALSE
There was a time when people with diabetes were told to avoid eating sugar, but science has since shown that this isn’t necessary. All carbohydrates (eg bread, rice, pasta, starchy vegetables) are broken down to sugar which is absorbed into the blood stream. Rather than avoid sugars, it is important that people with diabetes choose carbohydrates that are slowly broken down, and spread these carbohydrates evenly across the day to help control their blood sugar levels. The best choices are low glycemic index carbohydrates. For eg. Whole bran, oats, brown rice, porridge etc.

Skipping meals is a good way to lose weight
FALSE
It may seem logical that skipping a meal will help you lose weight because you eat less, but it’s not that simple. Missing out on meals can actually have the opposite effect. Your body goes into ‘survival mode’, slowing down your metabolism and conserving energy rather than using it up. Skipping meals can also make you hungrier, and more likely to snack on high fat or sugar foods. A better way to reach and maintain a healthy weight is eat small meals regularly throughout the day and find ways to be more active.

Breast Cancer


User Image

Breast cancer is a disease in which abnormal breast cells grow out of control and form tumors. If left unchecked, the tumors can spread throughout the body and become fatal. Breast cancer cells begin inside the milk ducts and/or the milk-producing lobules of the breast. The earliest form (in situ) is not life-threatening and can be detected in early stages. Cancer cells can spread into nearby breast tissue (invasion). This creates tumors that cause lumps or thickening.

Symptoms-
Some warning signs of breast cancer are:
New lump in the breast or underarm (armpit).
Thickening or swelling of part of the breast.
Irritation or dimpling of breast skin.
Redness or flaky skin in the nipple area or the breast.
Pulling in of the nipple or pain in the nipple area.
Nipple discharge other than breast milk, including blood.

Celiac Disease


User Image

Celiac disease is an illness caused by an immune reaction to eating gluten. Gluten is a protein found in foods containing wheat, barley or rye. If you have celiac disease, eating gluten triggers an immune response to the gluten protein in your small intestine. Over time, this reaction damages your small intestine's lining and prevents it from absorbing nutrients, a condition called malabsorption. There's no definite cure for celiac disease. But for most people, following a strict gluten-free diet can help manage symptoms and help the intestines heal.

Symtoms-
• Diarrhea.
• Fatigue.
• Weight loss.
• Bloating and gas.
• Abdominal pain.
• Nausea and vomiting.
• Constipation

Diet-
A strict, lifelong gluten-free diet is the only way to manage celiac disease.
1. stay away from all products with barley, rye, triticale (a cross between wheat and rye), farina, graham flour, semolina, and any other kind of flour. This includes self-rising and durum
not labeled gluten-free.
2. Be careful with corn and rice products. These don’t have gluten, but they can sometimes be contaminated with wheat gluten. This can happen if they're processed in factories that
also make wheat products. Look for such a warning on the package label.
3. Go with oats. Recent studies suggest you can eat oats if they are not contaminated with wheat gluten during processing. Check with your healthcare provider first.
4. Use potato, rice, soy, amaranth, quinoa, buckwheat, nut, or bean flour instead of wheat flour. You can also use sorghum, chickpea or Bengal gram, arrowroot, and corn flour. T
tapioca starch extract is another choice. These act as thickeners and can be used for leavening.

Motor neurone disease (MND)


User Image

What is MND?
Motor neurone disease (MND) is the name for a group of diseases that affect nerves known as motor nerves, or motor neurons. Your motor nerves carry messages from your brain to your muscles via your spinal cord. These messages allow you to move, swallow, talk and breathe. In MND, these motor neurons become damaged and die. Messages can no longer travel between your brain and muscles. This causes your muscles to become weaker and weaker. This eventually causes paralysis.

The MND disease group includes the following diseases:
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig's disease
Progressive muscular atrophy (PMA)
Progressive bulbar palsy (PBP)
Primary lateral sclerosis (PLS)
Kennedy's disease, also known as spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA)

What are the symptoms of MND?
Your first symptoms of MND that you notice can be mild, such as:
1.Stumbling because of weakness in your leg muscles
2.Difficulty holding and gripping objects because of weakness in your hand muscles
3.Slurred speech and swallowing difficulties because of weakness of your tongue and throat muscles
4.cramps and muscle twitching.

This is a non curable disease. But by giving some healthy diet we can help the patients.
