Health / 11 Amazing Health Benefits Of Pineapple. by ikelvin(m): 12:08am On Jun 05, 2015
We all know that eating fresh fruit provides your body with the vitamins and minerals it needs to stay healthy, and pineapple is no different. Tropical pineapples have lots of important properties that are essential in keeping you healthy. Pineapple has a water content of approximately 90%, it is rich in Potassium, Calcium, Sulphur, Chlorine, Biotin, Vitamin B12, Vitamin E and enzyme Bromelain.

 This enzyme called Bromelain, has been used in studies to determine it’s effectiveness in alleviating joint pain, arthritis, reduces inflammation, inhibits tumor growth and shortens recovery time following plastic surgery.

Consuming fruits and vegetables of all kinds has long been associated with a reduced risk of many lifestyle related health conditions. Many studies have suggested that increasing consumption of plant foods like pineapples decreases the risk of obesity, diabetes, heart disease and promotes a health.


HEALTH BENEFITS OF PINEAPPLES:

   (1)   PREVENTS HYPERTENSION
High blood pressure is one of the leading causes of stroke, heart disease, kidney failure and premature death. High blood pressure leads to hypertension and the reason is because it measures the force or pressure of your blood as it pushes against the walls of your arteries when your heart pumps.

 If this pressure goes up and stays up, this is high blood pressure and over the course of time it will cause damage to your body.
The pineapple diet for hypertension is said to help due to the fact that it contains higher amounts of potassium and lower amounts of sodium.

An increase of potassium intake by approximately 1.8–1.9 g a day has proved to lower the blood pressure of hypertensive subjects so that the average fall in systolic blood pressure is approximately 4 mmHg and that in diastolic pressure, about 2.5 mmHg. 
Taking potassium supplements lowered systolic blood pressure and lowers your chance of developing heart disease.

   (2)   FERTILITY
Antioxidant-rich diets have been shown to improve fertility. Because free radicals can damage the reproductive system, foods with high antioxidant activity like pineapples that battle free radicals are recommended for those trying to conceive. 
The antioxidants in pineapple such as vitamins C, beta-carotene and the vitamins and minerals and copper, zinc and folate have properties that improve both male and female fertility.

   (3)   STRENGTHEN THE IMMUNE SYSTEM
Pineapple has the essential and non-essential amino acid that helps to strengthen the body immune system, overcome fatigue, and improve stamina and energy. 
It contains substances like valine and leucine which are needed by the body for growth and repair of muscle tissue.
 Non-essential amino substance, proline , is important in the maintenance of the joints and
tendons and also to strengthen the heart muscle.

   (4)     EFFECTIVE SOLUTION FOR CATARRH/ COUGH
Pineapple is an excellent source of vitamin C, and this vitamin has multiple effects; it destroys free radicals and provides better function of the airways.

If you have one of many types of persistent coughs and it's not something more serious like pneumonia, reach for pineapple juice instead of cough syrup. It’s less expensive, has no toxic chemicals and contains the nutrients that will help fight a cold.

A glass of fresh pineapple juice a day prevents the accumulation of mucous in your throat. This function can have a massive impact on your overall health since you will be able to expel mucous easily when you cough. Furthermore, pineapple helps clear the lungs as it prevents mucous accumulation and supplies your body with high levels of vitamin.



   (5)    HELP DIGESTION AND ACCELERATES HEALING
Pineapple is rich in the enzyme Bromelain which is useful for throat and help digestion. The enzyme Bromelain digests protein in the food and prepares it to be easily absorbed by the body. The enzyme also helps in wound healing process and reduces swelling or inflammation in the body.

   (6)   RELIEVES NAUSEA
Pineapple intake helps to avert nausea or morning sickness and this is quite useful for pregnant women who usually experience nausea.

   (7)   IMPROVE MEMORY
Pineapple can improve one’s memory with Vitamin B1 and manganese naturally found within the fruit. The enzyme “bromelain” plays a key role in promoting cognitive functions.

 The center core of a pineapple fruit is an extension of the stalk where the bromelain is concentrated. Bromelain is known to stimulate blood flow to the brain and make one more alert. Due to this fact, it has been cited as the fruit of choice by students, musicians, singers and actors, because of the need to memorize sheet, music, lyrics and script lines.

   (cool   GLOWING SKIN AND BEAUTY
Pineapple juice has the ability to enhance your beauty in totality and keep you acne, pimples and wrinkles free. Applying pineapple juice also ward off moles, warts, blemishes, black spots etc. Pineapple juice is blended with array of nutrients that is beneficial for other purposes too including fair skin.
Pineapple juice especially should be taken by those who have sensitive and inflamed skin because vitamin C gives them a healing touch

Appling pineapple juice over the face for 5 minutes followed by washing with clean water also helps to make you smarter and glows your face by preventing pimples and blemishes. 

To minimize the dark spots and blemishes, it is recommended that one should rub the slices of pineapple over these black spots. Keep the slice for five minutes and wash with fresh water. It provides nourishing to the face.

   (9)   EYE HEALTH
Macular degeneration is considered as one of the major causes of blindness among older people. However, this problem that is usually caused by aging may be addressed with an increase in consumption of vitamins and minerals that are naturally found in pineapples.

(10)PREVENTS BLOOD CLOTS
Pineapple is a natural source of anti-coagulant, which is useful in preventing blood clots. With this in mind, those who suffer from bleeding disorders or individuals who are prone to blood clots may need to consume pineapples or drink pineapple juice regularly. This way, they can achieve positive results on their health.

(11) PROMOTES ORAL HEALTH
Another amazing thing about pineapples is that these fruits ensure oral health. Primarily, pineapples are acidic, and this discourages bacterial growth in your mouth.

 It also prevents plaque growth in mucous membranes that line the inner portion of your mouth. So, aside from regular brushing, make sure you consume pineapples daily for better oral health.

Health / FOUR Hidden Truths No One Will Tell You About Waist Trainers: by ikelvin(m): 8:21am On May 25, 2015
Having a flat sexy tummy to make you feel good about yourself and to show off to the world is one of the major reasons many Nigerian women are hitting the gym and eating healthy.

This has also made Waist Cincher (popularly called Waspie or Waist Trainer) very attractive for ladies, known as the corset in the 19th century, it has reemerged as a 21st century trend with endorsements from many celebrities like Kim Kadarshian taunting their “hour-glass figure”.

Before you get carried away with the frenzy of this trend and purchase a Waspie for your waist, here are a few things you should consider…

There is Nothing Like an Authentic Waist Cincher:

Waist cinchers do the same thing! It’s a corset-like device which you can wear for hours to compress your core, which will supposedly decrease the size of your waist permanently over time. So you’re either going to get a Waspie that compresses harder than another or a Waspie made of other attractive fanciful features. But the truth is a waspie is a waspie!

It Is Beauty With Dangerous Pain:

Compressing your waist areas, for hours, could be very dangerous. Anything posing as danger to your health is a pain you shouldn’t take for beauty’s sake. It restricts your movements. If you wear it really tight and for long hours or months (as some women have confessed) it could make breathing difficult and possibly cause a rib damage as well as other physiological damages.

Although it has been said that permanent health consequences only occur in an extreme circumstance where the waist trainer is overly tight, but it is believed that pelvic and abdominal organs can shift during waist trainer use.

It Weakens Your  Core Muscles:

Waist cinchers give external support for loose muscles around your waist. This can be a temporary waist support for women in need of some form of support around their waist, particularly women who just delivered. Prolonged use of this external support could weaken the core muscles in the stomach area which are necessary for tightening your abs. In other words, you won’t be able to work out effectively to get the abs you desire because your core muscles are already weak from unnecessary prolonged support.

It Will Not Permanently Alter The Shape Of Your Body:

Mary Jane Minkin, a clinical gynecologist and professor of obstetrics, gynecology and reproductive sciences at the Yale School of Medicine, was quoted in an article by columbiachronicle.com as saying, despite the hype surrounding the lasting effects of a waist trainer, women will not actually see any long-term results in muscular development or weight loss, adding that once the trainer comes off, the body will go back to its natural shape.

“It’s quite silly to be honest,” Minkin said. “While you’re wearing it, your waist will be smaller when you cinch it in, but after you take it off, there’s going to be no difference. It’s not like it’s training you to do something.”

Health / 6 Things Your Vaginal Discharge Is Trying To Tell You: by ikelvin(m): 5:56pm On May 23, 2015
Like most women with other things going on in your life, you probably don’t give your vaginal discharge much thought. As long as it looks and feels normal—that means clear or white and watery to slightly sticky, depending on where you are in your cycle—you have no reason to be concerned.

But when something in your undies looks or feels off, that sounds alarm bells. Maybe there’s a lot more of it than usual, the color is weird, or you’re hit with a whiff of an odor that you know can’t be good. Before you panic and buy out all the creams and sprays in your local pharmacy’s lady aisle, read these 6 things your vagina may be trying to tell you:



 

1. It’s Clear to White, Wet, and Stretchy

Most Likely: Ovulation. This slippery discharge appears during the middle of your cycle; it’s your body’s way of making it easier for sperm to slide into your vagina and fertilize an egg. “Discharge at ovulation can be copious,” says Dr. Alyssa Dweck, ob-gyn and coauthor of V Is for Vagina. “I often hear from patients who are worried something is wrong, but it’s normal.” No wonder this type of sex is the kind women prefer when they’re ovulating!

 

2. It’s White, Clumpy, and Really Itchy

Most Likely: A yeast infection, one that’s caused by an overgrowth of the yeast that normally helps balance the bacteria in your vagina. “There’s usually a lot of cottage-cheese looking discharge,” says Dr. Alyssa Dweck. “And while it doesn’t have an odour, it’s accompanied by killer itching of the outer or inner labia.” A yeast infection is incredibly common and can be caused by a ton of things, such as taking antibiotics or sitting around in your damp gym clothes. “Yeast love warm, moist environments,” says Dr. Alyssa Dweck. Pick up an OTC anti-yeast cream, or ask your doctor about an antifungal prescription that ends the infection without any mess.

 

3. It’s Yellowish-Green and Possibly Stings a Little

Most Likely: Chlamydia or gonorrhea, two common bacterial STDs. Other signs of either infection include pelvic pain and burning while urinating—but scarily, most women have no symptoms. Once your doctor diagnoses chlamydia or gonorrhea, they’re easily cured with antibiotics. Thing is, you have to get your man to see a doctor, as well. Both partners need to be cured, or you’ll keep passing either infection back and forth to each other.

 

4. It’s Grayish, Thin, and Has a Strong Odour

Most Likely: Bacterial Vaginosis (BV). The odour is the defining trait—it’s kind of a foul, fish-like smell. We know—not something you want a whiff of when you take off your undies. BV is also very common (it’s the most common vaginal infection among women ages 15 to 44, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) and is easily cured with prescription meds once your doctor diagnoses it. It’s a bit of a mystery why some women develop BV, but it generally means that something has upset the bacterial balance in your vagina, though experts aren’t always sure what.

 

5. It’s Frothy, Has an Unpleasant Odor, and Is Tinged Gray or Green

Most Likely: Trichomoniasis. It’s the most common curable STD, according to the CDC, yet you don’t have to have sex to catch it. “Trichomoniasis is caused by an organism that can live on towels, vibrators, and other inanimate objects,” says Dr. Alyssa Dweck. Equally as alarming, most men and women who have it don’t show symptoms—but if left untreated, it can make it easier for a woman to contract HIV and affect her baby’s health if she is pregnant, reports the CDC. The good news is that it can be treated and cured with a prescription pretty quickly.

 

6. It’s Bloody

Most Likely: Breakthrough bleeding, which often happens during the first few months after a woman goes on the Pill, as her body adjusts to the new hormones. If it’s dark red or brownish-colored discharge, it could simply be leftover blood from your period that took its time leaving your vagina. In rare cases, bloody discharge can signal something more threatening—for example, a precancerous cervical lesion. “Let your doctor know, so she can check you out and rule out a serious issue,” says Dr. Alyssa Dweck.
