Health › 5 Keys To A Healthy Lifestyle. by Caspian22(op): 8:50am On Dec 21, 2015

To be healthy today has many challenges. You maybe stuck to a job that requires you to seat for long hours, or you live in an environment that has very poor sanitation. However the good news is that we can actually control our health. No matter the circumstance, our habit has a strong correlation with our health status.

Today I will be giving you keys that will make you wealthy (it's not the key to a mansion, health is wealth). This keys involves basic steps we should take to achieve a healthy life.
Keep in mind that I understand that it is not as easy as it seems. But remember that the extra time and money you put will be repaid with few illnesses, medical bills and a happy life. Let's go!

1. Key to healthy eating

One of the most important factors in maintaining a healthy life is our eating. Let me just get straight to the point, eat more of whole, fresh foods and very less of processed foods. I can't really tell you to avoid them, because they its not possible. Just know that processed and prepackaged food usually has high fat, sugar and salt that causes heart diseases, cancer and stroke. The choice is yours. Remember, you are what you eat, so don't be cheap, fake and prepackaged.
Also drink a lot of fluids.

2. Key to exercising

Everybody is always emphasizing one exercise. I'm not a fitness expert but I will tell that proper exercise doesn't have to be complicated, painful or extreme to be effective. If you seat in front a computer for long hours, five days a week, take the remaining days to do simple jogging, cycling, in fact anything that makes you sweat and increases your heart beat. If you always drive needlessly, use you feet to walk. Help yourself by exercising, it pays in the long run.

3. Key to protecting your health

This key reveals the basic guidelines of how we can protect our health. The most effective strategy in protecting your health is by washing your hands regularly. Do you know that about 80 percent of diseases are transferred through the hand?. You should also take steps to avoid infected people and harmful health habits that could damage your body.

4. Key to caring for our basic body needs

If you were asked to mention three basic needs for body, what would you say?. I don't think you would include rest and sleep. Our body has many basic needs but the one it is mostly starved of is proper rest and sleep. That's because we can easily bypass it with caffeine or any other stimulant. Getting enough rest is very beneficial. Do you know that extra sleep could help you recover from many illnesses.

5. Key to health information

The basic way we can achieve a healthy lifestyle is through the right information. Always try to learn about your health and endeavor to educate others. Most times when you read about maintaining a good health, It would seem very complicated. "Do this, eat that or lose your soul". That's why we at youmustgethealthy blog make it simple and fun. Visit the doctor, visit healthcare websites, do all you can to learn about living healthy.

All these OP go just dey copy & paste rubbish. What do you mean you should avoid carbs? Where then will you get energy for the workout? The key is eating moderately while exercising. Carbs or no Carbs. You cannot tell where the body will store fat, EAT MODERATELY & WORK OUT 5TIMES weekly! And lastly avoid EATING LATE before going to bed. Because your METABOLISM is SLOW @ Night, shikena.

I didn't copy and paste anything. Check all the posts in my blog, there are all unique. I didn't say we should avoid carbs, just reduce its intake. More carbs will increase more fat. Thanks for ur point shaa duly noted Sir.

Its always disappointing when your trouser's waist line is being obstructed by a protruding and sometimes sagging stomach. That's because of excess belly fat, and how can you get rid of it?.
The names used to acknowledge belly fat are numerous, pot belly, áfor bolombolo (Igbo phrase for balloon stomach), and beer belly. This is a very common situation among the populace. It's actually more common in women than in men, so Madames take note. We will show our versatility by writing on fitness. Today you will learn about belly fat, it's health risks and the simplest exercises that will help you get rid of that self esteem assassin. Are you with me? Let's go.
Here's a little introduction;
Belly fat or abdominal fat is a condition that is characterized by excess fat accumulating in the abdominal area. The name of the fat is Adipose tissue. It is primarily caused by eating too much carbohydrates. And secondarily caused by drinking too much alcohol.
There is a big reason to worry about it because of the huge connection between excess belly fat and the risk of getting cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes and Alzheimer's disease.
It's actually not all that bad because it also secretes a hormone called leptin. This hormone regulates satisfaction from hunger. This is just to show you that belly fat is not bad, you just don't need excess.
Before we see the exercises I want us to bear something in mind. It is not possible to loss fat in just one specific area of your body by exercising. You will also lose fat at other regions. And that eating more carbohydrates while exercising won't help you reduce the fat. Proteins and fruits will do. Now let's check them out.
1. Walking
Walking is one of the most simplest, commonest and safest exercise. It can help you burn fat in the abdominal region. Of course you might say that you walk often. But if you want to burn calories by walking it should be in a fast paced manner, no matter the distance. Walking also helps the cardiovascular system. It is great for reducing dangerous belly fat around the kidney and liver. Make your walking more fast paced to get better results. If you are worried that your crush might see you "cheetah-walking" you could walk indoors or do it very early in the morning.

2. Swimming
Swimming is an excellent cardiovascular exercise that alleviates the presence of abdominal fat in the tummy. Swimming challenges a lot of your muscles. It also has few risks except for, you know, drowning. Like I said about walking, you should also swim in a fast paced manner to achieve a flat tummy. Your swimming should involve high tempo and strenuous strokes. Here's a bonus, swimming in warm water will help you lose more calories than a cold one. This is basically due to increased metabolism and sweating.

3. Cycling
Cycling is a great exercise. It just doesn't helps you burn calories. It also helps you relax mentally. It involves almost all the muscles of the body. But the area cycling is more effective is your leg muscles. However cycling also reduces belly fat when it is done regularly. Cycling challenges the abdominal muscles by using its force to push the leg.

4. The lying leg raise exercise
This exercise is pretty simple and self explanatory. All you do is, you lie on a flat surface, down on your back with your arms behind your head and you raise your leg one after the other up and down. This exercise will contract your abdominal muscles and groin muscles too. You may feel pain at first but with time and regular practice you will get over it. Another way to do it is to lie on your back, place your two legs together and raise them up. Then have someone push your leg down with force. What you then do is hold your leg before it goes down. Repeat it often.
Thanks for reading. Please comment.

Health › 6 Surprising Ways Being In Love Affects YOUR Health by Caspian22(op): 9:20am On Dec 15, 2015

Love is a beautiful thing and love is also blind too. How does that feeling affect our health?
Does it make you beautiful or blind?
Whether it is love at first sight or at the last attempt, we are greatly affected physically and emotionally by our romantic tendencies. So in this very short post we will be looking at 6 shocking ways being in love affects your health.

1. Reduces stress
When you are in love with someone you are less likely to be stressed out. Your headaches ,migraine and pains ease up faster (that's paracetamol money saved). You body is always more relaxed and happy. Every romantic music you listen to will all sound better, which is very much good for your health.

2. Energetic feeling
Being in love increases metabolism. That means that more ATP is used and energy is equally given off. You are always energetic and restless Also hormones such as dopamine and oxytocin causes you to engage in a pleasurable act with your lover. Love is indeed a beautiful thing.

3. Increases your heart rate
This is a rather obvious fact. Whenever you around that special someone your heart starts beating like masterkraft's beat. This is very good because more blood will be pumped into your brain and other vital organs. You don't need to exercise to get your heart pumping faster, all you need to do is fall in love.

4. Reduces your sleep
Enough of the good effects. Love is also blind too. When you are in love with someone your sleep is reduced significantly. This is because instead if you to sleep you'd be thinking about your lover. This is somewhat bad because you can put on more weight. You could watch more movies during that period ,hoping to re-act them with your imagination.

5. Makes you distracted
Being in love reduces the level of the hormone, serotonin. This hormone makes you more conscious and organized. You will become distracted and make more mistakes over the simplest things. This is another downside of that romantic feeling.

6. Makes you eat often
Due to the high rate if metabolism and also the high amount of energy you use stressing about your lover, you will eat more often. Furthermore in a study that involved students that were in love, they all admitted to eat often because everything tasted sweeter (can you imagine?). So it actually a reasonable fact but be careful not to overeat.

Thanks so much for reading and please comment on what you think and also if you had any experiences based on this.

ChuzzysBlog:
True! However blogging style varies based on location and niche!

You don't expect a medical, food, or tech blogger to style the way an entertainer does!
neither do you expect a Nigerian blogger to write like an american blogger!

Choose what works best for you. As a matter of fact, getting loyal readers to you blog now is as hard as going to heaven through hell
you gotta drag as many readers as you can. In entertainment, you have just an original content. Others pick up from the original...

The problem i have with most of the people who post stuff like what you did above, is that, they do worse than what others do but hide behind one niche blog. Most tech bloggers and other "super niche" bloggers, have entertainment blogs and they keep their identity totally off it so you can't trace then. Hypocrisy

You think its beans to get strong SEO? guys let's be real to ourselves!

This is a whole of my time spent!
God bless all... If you quote i may not respond! Too busy

Food › Top 5 Nigerian Soups And Their Health Benefits. by Caspian22(op): 8:55am On Dec 08, 2015

Nigerian soups are one of the most delicious soups in Africa. How do I know? Well just by looking at the surface anatomy of the soup you will know. There are lots of Nigerian soups... almost 50. And We all eat soups all the time with our eba, semo or akpu to escort it. So I took the liberty to write down the top 5 Nigerian soups and because we care about your health, we went an extra mile to get the health benefits YOU derive from them. The list is based on the tastiness of the soup and also the popularity. For some soups we got their scientific name (that's if you care to use) Now let's check them out, trust me you will enjoy it.

5. Edikang Ikong
This soup is so delicious that after eating it you forget to add the 'g' in edikang or ikong when pronouncing it. It is a really ancient soup that originated from the south-south part if Nigeria. It's primarily made up of fresh vegetables, other condiments include onions, pumpkin and tomatoes. So now, how does this meal benefit your health? First off edikang ikong is rich in omega 3 fatty acids which means that it aids vision as well as reducing the risk of rheumatism and arthritis in older people. It also reduces the risk of stroke.

4. Egusi Soup
Egusi soup or melon seed soup is one the most popular soups in Nigerian. It is not just sweet oo..It's east to prepare. The melon seed (Citrullus
lanatus) is reach in protein and fats. It also contains a sufficient amount of Vitamin A and C.which means it plays an important role in vision, reproduction, Growth, Bone and teeth formation.

3. Ewedu Soup
This is the most popular soup in the whole of Nigeria. It is called ogbono in the East, and ayoyo in the North. It is primarily made up of jute leaves as well as saluyot leaves. This soup is so thick and slimy. This is the only soup that teach you how to knit cloths. "It takes great handy skill to successfully wrap your eba around ewedu and swallow it neatly " - Jaja of Opobo, 1879.
Health benefits are ; It is a good source of dietary fibres. It is also the Nigerian soup with the lowest calories, which makes it great for weight loss. The leaves are used herbally to treat gonorrhea, fever and piles.

2. Bitter leaf Soup
Forget the fact that there is bitter in the name, the sweetness of this soup can help you avoid sugar. It's also very popular among Igbo's, Yoruba's and Hausa's. The scientific name of the leaf is Vermonia amygdalina (Am sure that's what Hon. Patrick calls it).
The major health benefit you derive is it's antioxidant content. Which helps fight against cancer growth. It also reduces sugar level and helps the kidney and pancreas to function well. Time for number one!

1. Oha Soup
The King is here. This soup is like Messi, it always comes first. Need I say much, It is the most delicious soup according to Forbes Nigeria. Ask Basketmouth his favourite soup and you'll understand. Oha soup is gotten from oha leaf. The scientific name of the leaf is Pterocarpus
sayonsii. The soup is prepared with cocoyam. And this cocoyam is rich in Vitamin B6 and magnesium. This means it is very good for pregnant women. It also controls high blood pressure and protects the heart. The cocoyam content also contains flavinoids that helps protect the body from lung and throat cancer.

Hot baths and Cold baths are both healthy. It depends on your body and the weather. Since its harmattan hot baths are extremely beneficial to relieve cold and cough as the hot water and steam tends to clear your airways and help in decongesting your nose and throats. A Cold bath is equally good Where a hot shower can dry things out, cold showers hydrate and help with split ends and dry skib
