FamilyWhy Men Go For Independent Women by flashope(op): 10:44am On Sep 02, 2016
Most people do have a misconception about most men crave to marrying a woman who puts something on the table. Responsible men dont want any dime from a woman. All they need is their intellectual capacity and high level of in-depth reasoning to contribute to the family because with that a man gets novel ideas periodically and have a knowledgeable person who repackages and critically analyse all ideas he tables. Your wisdom, knowledge and positive words are all what a man really need from a woman. Wealth, beauty are all secondary.
Most women that are financially independence have these qualities and value money more. So it's imperative for men to go for such woman because that is partial confirmation that the woman's reasoning is up to par. Such people don't are more interested in discussions that will propell both partners and shy from irrelevant discussions and their less dependence on the man will open more avenues for investment and more income.
Therefore, dear ladies please focus on your internal-internal and not external-external. Amass more knowledge , get more independent, be humble, be more reasonable, upgrade your character positively and dont just sit down hours beautifying your face,spend more of your time beautifying your mind and responsible men of vision will find their ways into your life.

RomanceAnalysis Of Nairalanders Response:meaning Of Open Relatioship by flashope(op):
Do you really know the meaning of open relationship?. Do it actually have same meaning to everyone?. Someone with username ChuzzyBlog came online on March 8, 2016 by 10:49am to ask this question( What do people mean when they say they are in a open relationship) from nairalanders and the several opinions led to the generation of these data and extraction of the two main meaning of “open relationship”

Result.


From the data gathered from those that commented between March 8,2016 by 10:56am to March 09, 10:13am we had these results. Responses that were not relevant to the subject matter were removed from the analysis.

Demographic


As shown in the table and Bar chart below, 12 males , 6 females and 7 people did not disclose their gender. 25 responders were valid for the analysis.

The response for respective responders was coded into four main category.
(1) Having other partner(s) while in relationship
(2) Relationship open to public
(3) Just for fun
(4) Open to public and having other partner(s) while in relationship.

As shown in the table below, 13 responders supported having a partner(s) while in relationship; where 7 males supported , 3 females and 3 people that didn’t disclose gender. 9 responders supported relationship open to public, 3 are females, 3 are males and 2 didn’t disclose gender, 2 people supported just for fun, while one is male and one did not disclose gender. Just one person went for both having partner(s) while in relationship and open to public and that one person did not disclose identity.

Discussion



Harnessing the available results generated, it shows some people believe open relationship means a relationship which supports having partner(s) while in the relationship. According to NewSheriff(m)

“People have answered it already, it(open relationship) means they are open to as many options as possible . Free to have keep other relationship while this (relationship) one is still running”


And while some other believes it means the relationship is open to the public there is commitment and family and friends and general public knows about the relationship. According to Martdap12(m)

“means they are not hiding if from anyone. You are open to everyone about it, more of flaunting it. Means they are not hiding it from anyone. You are open to everyone about it, more of flaunting it.”

The two main general theme generated are that open relationship can be either defined as having relationship that everyone knows about or having a free relationship where partners can easily cheat. It can also be deduced that males are more in support of open relationship being having other partner(s) during relationship than females.

Limitations

(1) The number of opinions sampled were too small, larger sample will give more accurate result
(2) Not all responders disclosed their identity
(3) It is difficult to know the true perspectives of responders.

Health9 Ways To Ease Menstrual Pain by flashope(op): 8:44pm On Feb 27, 2016

Heat.


This is a cheap way to ease menstrual.pain. it just requires applying heat on the abdominal part of the body where the pain is felt. The heat helps relax the uterine muscle and reduces the pain drastically. It can be executed by

· Placing heating pad or hot water bottle on the abdomen or lower back

· You could also boil water and soak the pad or towel in it then use on abdomen or lower back
Just use any method that is easy for you.

[b]Exercise

[/b]Exercising three to four times a week is good for humans general wellbeing; it is recommended to those that are prone to having menstrual pain to engage in some form of exercise . Exercise facilitates blood flow and releases endorphins that counteract the effect of prostaglandins of the uterine thus easing menstrual cramp. Yoga is a very good light exercise to engage in. Restorative or aerobic exercise are also good.

[b]Organic foods

[/b]There are many organic foods and herbs, which has many nutrients and properties that aids in stopping menstrual pain. Some are

· Chamoline tea
· Basil
· Cinnamon
· Fennel
· Blackstrap Molasses
· Papaya
· Flaxseed
· Red raspberry lead tea
· Parsley
· Ginger - a study published in journal of American Academy of Pain Medicine provided suggestive evidence for the effectiveness of 750-2000mg ginger powder during the first 3-4 days of menstrual cycle for primary dysmenorrhea ( menstrual pain)
· Taking of calcium, fish oil vit B1 or boron supplement are also good for easing menstrual pain. Though it is important to conduct a doctor or dietician before taking supplements.

[b]Aromatherapy

[/b]Aromatherapy is done using cinnamon oil, ginger, margocam and several others it is carried out by placing the oil on the abdomen and massaging it to reduce the pain felt. it helps reduce pains of menstruation. A study published in Evidence Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine Journal shows that it could be more effective than acetaminophen

[/b]This is traditional Chinese medicinal culture . it is done by pinning needles in strategic points on the body and is effective in easing all kind of pains including menstrual pain. If you have access to acupuncture why dont you give it a try.

[b]Orgasm

[/b]Have you ever felt orgasm before? If you have, you would know how soothing relief it gives and this makes all kind of pain go menstrual pain not exempted. At the moment of climax , blood flow increases and helps relieve the cramp. Orgasm promotes the release of endorphin that nullifies the effect of prostaglandins causing pains.

[b]Water

[/b]Water helps keep the body hydrated and prevent painful bloating during menstruation . Warm or hot water is preferable for those suffering from menstrual pain.

Oral contraceptive

[/b]If you are on oral contraceptives then you are going to experience less or no menstrual pain . Studies have shown the positive ameliorative effect of oral contraceptives on menstrual pain and that those that are on it feel less or no menstrual pain. If you want to get pregnant please dont use oral contraceptives to stop menstrual pain.

[b]NSAIDs

[/b]These are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs they are pain killers and are found to be effective in easing menstrual pain. There are several classes of drug that could be used . felvin (piroxicam), Paracetamol (acetaminophen), Motrin(ibuprofen), or Aleve ( naproxen) .

HealthAmala(yam Flour) Better For Diabetes Than Pounded Yam by flashope(op): 11:29am On Feb 10, 2016
Diabetes mellitus is the increase in blood glucose caused by the inability of the body to produce insulin or use produced insulin that facilitates the mediation of glucose to the cell for energy production. Diabetes patients have restricted diet and consume more of fruits and vegetables and also foods of low glycemic index i.e. foods that would cause gradual increase in the blood glucose when consumed and prevent those that have high glycemic index i.e. causes a spike in the blood glucose when consumed.

The necessity to extend the range of food consumed by the diabetic patients motivates scientists to explore more foods that could be taken by diabetic patents.

The level of consumption of white yam is relatively high which makes it imperative to look into the benefits and effects of this yam specie on diabetic patients. Studies done on white yam has shown that white yam could be bad or good for diabetic patients depending on how it is processed. Processing of starch affects the rate of availability of digestible carbohydrate.

White yam could be boiled, pound and made into yam flour ( amala) . Processing of starch leads to the breakage of the orchestrated starch structure making carbohydrates more available.

A study showed that boiled yam has high glycemic index than yam flour (Amala) and pounded yam has the highest glycemic index compared to boiled yam and yam flour(amala). The way white yam is processed in pounded yam makes the carbohydrate more available to enzymes that disintegrate and completely breakages the carbohydrates to glucose though yam flour(amala) undergo quite a vigorous processes but the hydration lost in the process with some slight modifications makes the carbohydrate less available and making it have low glycemic index.

In summary, amala(yam flour) is safer for diabetes patient than pounded yam

It is recommended for diabetic patients to consume more of amala (yam flour) in lieu of pounded yam.

HealthReasons You Remain Fat by flashope(op): 8:30pm On Jan 29, 2016
These are some of the reasons you remain fat.


Inconsistent diet plan


Burning of fat requires consistency in consumption of diet with low calories be it carbohydrates, fats or proteins. It is perfect to stick to prescribed healthy diet that tends to promote loss of fat. Most people that are on the mission of off loading fat do follow strictly their new diet plan but on seeing some palatable meal they abscond the healthy nutritional regime and take such meal which might lead to a very large increase in calorie intake and making the planned healthy diet effect futile. It is very good to stick to the healthy diet plan on the course of losing fat.


Low and inconsistent exercise
[color=#990000][/color] rate


Burning fat requires burning energy, exercise that would make you soak in your sweat and you could feel the rigorous work your body is doing. Some do say they are on diet that would make them loss fat and they do not need doing exercise, some people even go to the gym without sweating after exercise at the gym. Exercise is very essential if you want to burn those fats and get your good shape. In addition, those that undergo exercises should try to be consistent with it and not just do excessive exercise today and relent for some other days and feel previous rigorous exercise would cover up.  In essence, keep up with a good and consistent exercise to foster quick burning of fat.


You do not eat enough protein


Protein is very good for burning fat, this is because it contains low calories and increases metabolism of the body, which relatively cause usage of stored fat as calorie source. Protein also fakes fullness and makes one reach satiety level with low calorie consumed. You should try to add protein into your diet.


Note: You should prevent whey protein because they promote more production of insulin that is not good for fat burners.


You stress yourself



Stress is one thing that is rampant in the society nowadays because people juggle between jobs to keep up with livelihood and forget that the body has the limit it could take. Stress cause production of cortisol that taints fat burning process. Ease off stress periodically maybe through good massage, short nap, meditation can be used to ease stress.


You do not get enough sleep



Just like stress easing, sleep is very important when burning fat. Lack of adequate sleep causes production of cortisol, which causes accumulation of fat. Get at least 8 hours sleep daily, this is the healthy length of sleep for adult.


You drink a lot



The best fluid for someone who wants to lose weight is water, because of its advantages. Taking of drinks such as beverage drink, soda and some alcoholic drink are not good for the body. You could be taking those ones a while e.g. once a week but prevent taking them daily. Such drinks causes increase in calories and thus promote fat gain. A can of beer has 159 calories. You could see how much calorie you are gaining from such drink.


Eating too much junks



After following your diet plan strictly, you came across and a nice snack so irresistible you just have to consume it, after some minutes of indecision the aroma was so appalling and mouth watering, you ended up ingesting it. It is unfortunate that after eating such junk especially fatty ones and those with very high calorie, your mission to burn those fat is faulting, junks do contain high calorie that is not good for fat loss. For example, Pringles has about  279 calories per serving  . Other snacks have higher. Be careful the kind of snack you take in other to progress well in your fat burn mission.


Some healthy foods has high calories


Yeah, some foods that are naturally healthy to the body have high calories that have effect on increasing the weight gain. For example, you can get about 124 calories per table in foods such as palm oil, soybean oil and sesame oil. Nuts and seeds that are very advantageous to health e.g. walnut have about 183 calories and almond about 162 calories. Herring has about 213 calories. Other healthy foods have high calories. It is good to watch the kind of food eaten during this fat burning period and if nutrients derived from such foods is in better substitute with low calories you should go for such.


You are too sedentary



This is more common to those that work at home or in offices. Some sit down all day, consuming food, and drinking without standing up. This kind of lifestyle is not good for your goal to get that shape you want. Do try to take breaks intermittently, and at least work around the office periodically. 


Burning of fat and getting the perfect shape you want preeminently requires self-discipline and hard work. Make sure you are not making some mistakes as regards burning of fat and get the shape easily and quickly.
