Multi-tasker hairdryer




1. Drying wet hair: This is what the hairdryer was made for and this is what it does best! But opt for the cool air instead of a blast of hot air. Hot air will damage healthy hair, leaving them looking dry and frizzy.

2. Dry fresh nail polish: Very few people have the patience to let nail polish take its own sweet time in drying. If you are not one of those people, then use a hairdryer to dry your nail varnish faster.
3. Dry your body: Water enters ears while washing hair and it is essential that you dry your ears before stepping out or travelling or you'll end up with a cold or a headache. But your towel can't reach that tiny nook. Hairdryer to the rescue! Direct the nozzle towards your ear and dry them with some warm air.

4. Spill theory: You are running late and damn! you just dropped a little water on your skirt. No time to fish out another skirt and iron it? No problem. Dry the water with your hairdryer turned on the hottest temperature.

Fasting for Health




Historical records tell us that fasting has been used for health recovery for thousands of years. Hippocrates, Socrates, and Plato all recommended fasting for health recovery. The Bible tells us that Moses and Jesus fasted for 40 days for spiritual renewal. Mahatma Gandhi fasted for 21 days to promote respect and compassion between people with different religions.

For much of human history, fasting has been guided by intuition and spiritual purpose. Today, our understanding of human physiology confirms the powerful healing effects of fasting.

http://kidshealth.org/parent/nutrition_center/healthy_eating/drink_healthy.html#What are the fitness benefits of running?



Cardiorespiratory fitness (aerobic fitness or "cardio") is the ability of your heart to pump stronger and more efficiently and your muscles to use oxygen more efficiently. As you get more aerobically fit, your heart will pump more blood and oxygen with each beat (this is called "stroke volume") and your muscles will extract (or consume) more oxygen. For instance, if you have 100 oxygen molecules floating around in your bloodstream, a conditioned muscle might consume 75 molecules, whereas a deconditioned muscle might only consume 30, or even fewer than that. In fact, elite distance runners can be as much as three times more efficient at consuming oxygen than sedentary individuals. Running improves your aerobic fitness by increasing the activity of enzymes and hormones that stimulate the muscles and the heart to work more efficiently.

What about running and burning fat?

Drink healty for kids





There's a lot of talk about getting kids to eat healthy foods, but what about getting them on board with healthy drinks? What kids drink can drastically affect the amount of calories consumed, as well as the amount of calcium needed to build strong bones.
Serve Water and Milk

For kids of all ages, water and milk are the best choices, so let them flow. Not only is water calorie-free, but drinking it teaches kids to accept a low-flavor, no-sugar beverage as a thirst-quencher. Because a cup of milk has 300 milligrams of calcium, it can be a big contributor to your child's daily needs.

Here's how much calcium kids need each day:

    * toddlers (ages 1 to 3 years): 700 milligrams of calcium daily
    * kids (ages 4 to 8 years): 1000 milligrams
    * older kids (ages 9 to 18 years): 1,300 milligrams

Prayer and Healing: Prayers for strength, healing, and coping with life’s challenges


Why pray?

When I was a teenager, my girlfriends and I were often trying to diet. Our motto was: A moment on the lips is a lifetime on the hips. It meant that an act that took just an instant could remain with you forever. I like to apply this phrase to the process of prayer. A prayer takes just a matter of seconds to utter, but its influence in our lives, on our behavior, on our hearts, on our perceptions, can be permanent. A moment on our lips is a lifetime on our souls. A simple prayer can change us; can lead us on the path to healing ourselves and our world.

So pray. Pray for peace, pray for healing, pray for advances in science, pray for the strength to eradicate poverty and disease, pray for the courage to overcome injustice, pray for resolve, pray for others, pray for yourself. Pray to God with all your heart and soul, then gather up your might to meet the challenges that lie ahead.

10 Tips To Healthy Eating




 

  Experts agree the key to healthy eating is the time-tested advice of balance, variety and moderation. In short, that means eating a wide variety of foods without getting too many calories or too much of any one nutrient. These 10 tips can help you follow that advice while still enjoying the foods you eat.

See Reference Guide for: Vitamins   Minerals   Amino Acids   Herbs   Special Nutrients   Anti-Oxidants 
 Dietary Fibers   Nutritional Greens   Digestive Nutrients   also see   Nutritional Glossary   INDEX

       1. Eat a variety of nutrient-rich foods. You need more than 40 different nutrients for good health, and no single food supplies them all. Your daily food selection should include bread and other whole-grain products; fruits; vegetables; dairy products; and meat, poultry, fish and other protein foods. How much you should eat depends on your calorie needs. Use the Food Guide Pyramid and the Nutrition Facts panel on food labels as handy references.
       2. Enjoy plenty of whole grains, fruits and vegetables. Surveys show most Americans don't eat enough of these foods. Do you eat 6-11 servings from the bread, rice, cereal and pasta group, 3 of which should be whole grains? Do you eat 2-4 servings of fruit and 3-5 servings of vegetables? If you don't enjoy some of these at first, give them another chance. Look through cookbooks for tasty ways to prepare unfamiliar foods.
       3. Maintain a healthy weight. The weight that's right for you depends on many factors including your sex, height, age and heredity. Excess body fat increases your chances for high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, some types of cancer and other illnesses. But being too thin can increase your risk for osteoporosis, menstrual irregularities and other health problems. If you're constantly losing and regaining weight, a registered dietitian can help you develop sensible eating habits for successful weight management. Regular exercise is also important to maintaining a healthy weight.

Eating on the cheap in Japan





By Billy Hammond



Sushi

Mention Japan and everybody thinks of "sushi". While it's true that "sushi" is a popular Japanese dish, most Japanese don't go to sushi bars all that often because of the cost.

There are many alternatives if you want to eat affordable sushi. Ranked in order of decreasing price: there's the local sushi shop with a take-out window where you place your order that has its prices displayed on wax models in a showcase or printed on pictures of the selection offered; the sushi section in the food section of famous department stores (Takashimaya, Sogo, Hankyu, Seibu, Tokyu, Matsuzakaya, Mitsukoshi, Hanshin, Kintetsu, etc.); the local "conbini" (7-11, Lawson, Sun, etc.); and the sushi section in supermarket chain stores (Daiei, Itoyokado, Seiyu, etc.).

Pick up a box of green tea bags at the market or grab a few cans of beer at the liquor store on your way home and you're on the way to a low-priced sushi dinner. If you hit the supermarkets before closing, sometimes you can find your sushi marked down to less than 1/2 the regular price, so if you don't mind a reduced selection, timing your visit to the market can make your meal even less expensive.
The Ultimate - Instant Noodles!

While almost all Japanese will agree that this is not the most nutritious thing to eat, most will probably admit to eating a variant of this quite often. You can find them in any supermarket, "conbini" or sometimes even in vending machines. They come in their own container and all you have to add is boiling water.
