HealthSafer Alternatives To Some Household Items by Brightgem(op): 11:13am On Sep 14, 2016
Our target in our everyday living should be avoiding things that put more strain on our systems, things that add more toxins to our bodies giving it the extra work of eliminating them, and of course which over time, exposure of the body constantly to such harmful products can lead to other degenerative illnesses. We use a lot of household products which we can actually do without,many of such household products are industrialized. Here is a quick one on some things we can do away with and replace with better, safer alternatives to in our homes, to protect ourselves and our families.

TOOTHPASTE: It has been over a year now that I personally stopped using any brand of toothpaste, are my teeth suffering any consequences from quitting? Nay! Some alternatives to toothpaste include:

Apple Cider Vinegar, specifically unfiltered raw organic vinegar. Mix a small amount with water, toss in your mouth and put your tooth brush to work.
Lemon water which is a mixture of lemon juice/pulp and water. Used in the same manner as apple cider vinegar.
Baking Soda. Baking soda has become famous for its many uses not restricted to baking. Baking soda can be used in place of toothpaste safely and it also helps whiten the teeth.
Herbal tooth powders are also a great alternative to toothpastes as they are made with ingredients that help fight inflammation and infections.
Bentonite clay can be used to brush the teeth along with a toothbrush. The clay can be mixed with some diluted vinegar and kept in a small container, to be used daily.

NOTE: Apple cider vinegar should not be used directly without diluting as it can wear out teeth enamel over time. It is also important to look at the ingredients used in products, hence a herbal tooth powder should also be examined well before use, rather than assume since it has the “herbal” tag it must be safe.

REFINED WHITE SUGAR: Sugar has always been the sweet enemy, many people do not take note of how much sugar they ingest daily. Through their morning teas, coffee, and fizzy drinks. Sugar is also addictive, the body craves it. Need we speak again about the many dangers of sugar, even if we only focus on the fact that recent studies show sugar feeds cancer, it is enough reason to keep off. Healthy alternatives to sugar include honey, stevia which is sugar/calorie-free substitute extracted from the leaves of the plant stevia. Using sweet fruits as replacement where possible in meals that would have used sugar is also a good option, fruits like figs and dates.

BLEACH FOR COUNTER TOPS: Though bleach may seem to do a good job of keeping surfaces clean, however the fumes from them is enough to tell us of all the strong chemicals that have gone into the making of them. Vinegar, Lemon or baking soda can be used separately as cleaners, or they could be mixed and diluted with water and kept in a container for daily use. They clean just as good and serve as disinfectant. An effective container to place this natural cleaner will be a spray bottle for easy use.

Our fast paced world comes with its advantages as well as the not so great things. We should reduce our exposure to anything that contains questionable/harmful ingredients. We must always arm ourselves with the needed information as well as take deliberate actions to safe guard ourselves from modern day degenerative illnesses.

Have a positive health attitude.

Babacele:
cool. I just watch your video on the theme: Traditional healing methods. the intro to your video is awesome and the total message is nice with a very wide or global perspective on different methods and cultures in traditional healing. But I would prefer, like most of your audience and health enthusiasts globally ,that you show us practically; teach us with pics while the audio quality should remain clear too to the advantage of people with optical challenges on how these practices can solve our certain health challenges, or enhance our healths. One of the new Universities where millions can easily learn practical life changing skills daily without any manmade barriers as found in our brick and mortar sçhools is the U-tube . So most viewers go to U-tube with this mentality: to learn a new skill , solution or enhance old strategies asap.

For examples If you can make videos on how to reduce weight and get flat tommy , fight Diabetes, optimize potentials, get pink lips, look more beautiful, how to overcome balding or make hair grow, how colors affect moods, or other issues that border millions of folks globally everyday with clear step by step pics on how it works, you would be amazed at the number of viewers that would visit your site after a year.
More power to your elbow.
Alright thanks much for the review. I appreciate, dealing with health needs some caution since one isnt a doctor, since I have passion for health is why I am also taking some courses to help me be a better authority in what I say. I appreciate the comments, its remains a work in progress.

HealthRe: Finding It Hard To Exercise? Get Motivated Here by Brightgem(op):
obioji:
I started working out when I got a complete work out kit as a gift. The benefits you menrioned about Working out/exercising are so true.
Indeed they are, I enjoy going to play tennis, though still learning. Hey missy do add ur site link aceliving to ur profile here on nairaland so people can easily link up. I still face challenges commenting on ur blog so far. I thought its browser I changed to another then captcha typing is where the problem comes. Dnt knw maybe on desktop will not happen, but u should probably check why its that way.
HealthFinding It Hard To Exercise? Get Motivated Here by Brightgem(op): 1:23pm On Sep 10, 2016
There are so many out there that are battling everyday to workout, to take the first step in their fitness journey some never start as they keep saying “I will start tomorrow” some start but cannot keep the tempo, and quit. While some are getting it together everyday. Learn some simple ways you can begin your own workout journey, and your time starts NOW!

THE DECISION: As with any matter in the life of man, a decision has to be made for actions to take place. It all begins in the mind, our thoughts reflects as actions. Do you wish to start working out? If yes, that is your decision. But it does not end there.

TAKE DELIBERATE STEPS – So you have made a decision, you need to put the machinery in place that makes your decision possible. Prepare ahead, what will you be needing and where will you be going? Answer this question. Do you have workout clothes and shoes? If you don’t buy them, if you do, they are probably gathering dust somewhere, hunt them down and clean them up, because it is time to rumble and you have made your decision.


OUTDOORS WORK BETTER:
I find it is quite easy to sit around and still not exercise even with having work out equipment at home. It just does not always work. If you want to be serious with you, then you need to get out there, to sweat it out. You just need to go out of your comfort zone, there is hardly respect for the exercise machine sitting at home, there is even more respect for the one at the gym.


CHOOSE A SPORT YOU LOVE:
It can be boring simply thinking of just getting out to jog, or jump some stairs. However if you have a sport you have always thought you might enjoy, this serves as a good motivation to begin exercising. Think of that sport you wish you could be good at and have the crowd cheering at you. Then go do it.

PAY TO WORKOUT: [/b]We tend to take what we have to pay for more seriously than what is free. Find a coach, or a club or a gym where you have to actually pay to join or get coached in a sport of your choice, that way you will see your exercise as an investment you are wasting when you choose not to go. Nobody wants to waste money. So pay to exercise somewhere.


[b]TEAM UP WITH A GROUP/FRIEND:
“Together we stand, divided we fall” this is a popular saying, so know it that, fighting your reluctance to workout alone can prove even harder when you have no other person around you with a similar struggle. So it gives you a lot of motivation when you team up with people of like minds, foe sometimes you will keep them going or they will keep you going. Stick to a team or partner and you will likely remain motivated and consistent.


REWARD YOURSELF:
Tell yourself what you will do for you if you can pull this exercise thing out for just one month? Buy yourself something, or maybe visit that nice place in your city you have been hearing about. Placing a reward ahead for yourself will keep you going.


HOW FAR YOU HAVE COME: So you have only done a week or a few days at this working out thing, what matters is you are no longer at the point all you were doing is wishing to get it started, keep looking forward to adding up more days, such that each day you are not where you were yesterday. Its that simple. Just remain consistent. Your body may be sore at first but that in itself is a reward if you look at it that way.

Now staying motivated is not limited to these ways, also, you could read a gazillion books and posts on workout but it all fall on YOU to get it done in the end. However there are even more benefits that come with working out that may just get you going:

Workouts help you keep up with other things in your life, it helps you stay more focused. If you can work out and consistently stick to your routine, you will most likely go with the same attitude as concerns other important matters in your life. You stick to a plan and see it through.

Workouts help you to be a more confident person. The ability to push yourself makes you see and know your own strengths, hence better self esteem.

Workouts keep you healthy. When you exercise you sweat, and through your sweat you eliminate waste from the body, workouts serve as physical detox for the body. Your joints and muscles move hence they stay in shape. Exercise gives you better stamina, you become better equipped to withstand physical and mental activity without running out of energy so quickly.

Workouts do elevate your social status. Yes you get respected for working out, forget haters who would make you feel you are wasting your time. Respect can come from becoming so good at the sport you use to exercise that you become a champion. Who does not like the champion feeling?

Workouts can help you stay positive and keep you occupied in times not so blooming. Unemployed youths can particularly find workouts motivating in the face of lack of a job, workouts can add some meaning to life and save one getting heavily depressed.

There you have it, go out there and enjoy your workout.

Get a positive health attitude.

LiteratureA Facebooker's Poem About The State Of Naija. Written In Broken English! by Brightgem(op): 7:51pm On Sep 09, 2016
Na today dem start to learn to theif?
Na today dem begin to crown theif as cheif?
Chai! We don truly see things!
Chai! We don really hear things!
The other day dem say:
Country hard, money no dey
But every time, we dey hear Millz
Every time, we dey hear Billz
Every time, na another news
The other day dem say:
"Things go change" but we still dey wait
Na here we dey, we never see the change
Hunger dey, people dey die
Hunger dey, crime don dey so high
Imagine dem plan to chatter jeeps
When all men dey look for food to eat
The other day dem say:
Job go dey but we still dey wait
Na today dem start to lie?
Na today wahala rife?
Dem sabi conjure lie
Masters of propaganda
Dem whitewash things to turn black to white
Dem wan put cotton for our eyes
Dem dey try to hypnotise our mind
Make we no see things as dem don make am to be
But we all don pass dat side
Our psyche don start to high
We don dey accustomed to their lies
Dem dey try to take us for a ride
Bring the change before kasala go blow

Imagine dem come for our votes
Dem beg, dem say dey wan serve us
Dem beg, dem say dey go make us smile
Imagine, dem promise us Jericho
Dem say dey go bring us milk and honey
Dem say dey go bring us sweet and money
Dem sweet talk us till dey confuse our mind
Dem sweet talk us till dey make us blind
Imagine wen we give dem our votes
By then, dem come draw up the blinds
By then, dem come start to rip our minds
By then, servants come transform to masters
Imagine wen we give dem our votes
By then, dey come take us back to Egypt
By then, we come realize their deceit
By then, we come dey see their conceit
Imagine when we come give dem our votes
Rather than milk dem come dey feed us vinegar
Them say we dey sick so we need to heal
Rather than honey, dem release the bees on our bodies
Rather than money, dem begin to tell us stories
Chai! Money no dey, money no dey
Yet we dey hear recovered trillions
Imagine when tomatoes come cost pass apple
Imagine when mama exchange pikin for garri
Imagine when papa exchange pikin for money
Chai! Suffer dey, suffer dey
Na whom we go blame

Dem no like to hear the truth
When you tell dem all the truth
Dem go dey vex, while their mien go start to change
When you tell dem truth, dem go send the state apparatus after you
Dem go get a lie to cover the truth
Even now as I dey yarn, no surprise when dem pick me up
Their oga no like criticism
Him lieutenants, ever ready to please
Go swoop on you even before you blink an eye

Since dem land, na gidigbo among themselves
Since dem come, their house don begin to scatter
Chai! Which kind yawa we don enter
Chai! Who go save us from all these wahala.
