THE AFRICAN WALNUT; WHY YOU NEED IT AND HOW MUCH YOU SHOULD TAKE!

Yes! It’s that time of the year again when the African walnuts are seen everywhere in the market. For those who love this nut, I’ve got something interesting to let you know about it and for those who don’t like it, maybe this article would give you a reason to try it out tonight!

The African walnut (king of nuts) is mostly found in Nigeria and some other parts of Africa. In the Western part of Nigeria, it is known as “ASALA” while in the Southern part, it is called “UKPA”. It is one of the well packaged nuts that Mother Nature has blessed us with! But guess what? Most people consume it without knowing why and exactly how much they need per serving!

LET’S SEE WHY YOU NEED THIS SPECIAL NUT!
The African walnut has been noted for its remarkable benefits to human health and proven to be an excellent source of essential minerals, vitamins, fiber and phytonutrients needed for healthy functioning of the human body. Let’s see some examples.

HEART DISEASES SUCH AS HYPERTENSION AND HEART ATTACK: Have you heard of L-arginine before? It’s very vital for those suffering from hypertension and other heart diseases! And guess what? African walnuts have loads of it!

SPERM PRODUCTION AND INFERTILITY IN MEN: This special nut is also known to boost sperm production, sperm health, sperm development and sperm count. For instance, taking a serving of this nut for over 8 weeks has been shown to boost men’s fertility. This is mind-blowing!!!

WEIGHT LOSS CREW: To shed off that excess body weight, belly fat and reduce body cholesterol, the African walnut is a top choice snack for you. But know that you must stick to the serving size because they are quite high in calories.

SLEEP DISORDERS: For those having disturbed sleep especially at night, taking this special nut before bedtime might be that magic pill you need because it increases your melatonin which acts on your brain and signal your body to give you a sound sleep.

IRREGULAR MENSTRUAL FLOW AND OVULATION PROBLEMS: African walnuts are rich in omega 3 Fatty acids which aid to regulate hormone levels and manage menstrual cramps (pains). Its high iron content (14%DV per serving) is vital to replenish blood and energy supplies while menstruating.

DIABETES: African walnut is a healthy snack to help reduce the risks of type 2 diabetes.

COGNITIVE (BRAIN) FUNCTIONING: the healthy fats and pyridoxine in African walnuts are key facilitators to improving cognitive function. Growing kids should tap from this benefit as well!

ANAEMIA AND IMMUNE SYSTEM: With the high antioxidant and iron content of African walnut, you are sure to ward off infections, anaemia and even eye related problems by just consuming a serving of this nut daily!

CANCER: African walnuts have been shown to play a vital role in reducing the risks of prostate and breast cancer in humans.

NOW HOW MUCH SHOULD YOU EAT? WHAT IS A SERVING OF THIS NUT?

To obtain maximum benefit from African walnuts, you must learn to stick to the serving size as overdoing it might not bring desired results especially for the watch watchers,yes o!
A serving size is about 30g = 7 whole piece or 14 halves of shelled African walnuts!
Nutrient breakdown of a serving size (7 shelled walnuts) is:

Calories 189.9kcal
Total fat 18g
Carbohydrate 3g
Protein 7g
Fiber 2g (9% DV for a 2000kcal/day)
Sodium 0mg (now you see why it’s perfect for hypertension)
Iron 1.1mg (14%DV; good for anaemia)

Now you see all you stand to gain by taking just 7 walnuts! As long as you stick to this serving per day, you need not worry about the “Forgivable fats” in this walnut,yes they are forgivable fats because they are good fats that help reduce cholesterol levels!

HOW CAN I THESE WALNUTS

Yes, I know most people are used to the boiled walnut as a snack but other super ways of enjoying this nut include;
• Chopping it into your salad dishes
• Blending it into your fruit smoothies
• Have you tried taking it with soaked Garri (like you do with groundnuts)?
• It can be roasted too just like we have roasted groundnut…yeah!
• Using it in soups. Just boil, shell and mill it into a paste then use for cooking (just like the recipe you use for your yummy Egusi soup)
• Tell me which other method you have tried or think we can try?
I guess walnuts are cheap in price compared to their health benefits.

There seems to be a sustained ugly trend now where married women are being denied confirmation at their work places in the corporate world. Majority are being denied access to write transitional exams for confirmation too. Maybe It could be attributed to the recent Federal Government of Nigeria's upward review of the maternity leave that is making these corporate organisations to begin to think that it could affect their workforce if implemented fully to the latter, therefore they are trying to play on the safe side. Well the truth is single employed ladies would still get married to their hubbies someday, so what is the need then.

It will be recalled that there was a certain telecommunication giant in Nigeria that had serious employment issues with its female staff, and after the brouhaha decisions where made. This kind of issues do not befit an elite society like ours, rather it tries to push growth and development of corporate principles backwards. Everyone should be given a fair chance for everything without looking at family background or social strata.

There should be gender equality and balance for both married and unmarried folks which has continued to garner a world wide crusade. The married females are even more matured to respect and uphold company rules and regulations and are also in the position to chart a progress course for these corporate organisations just as they would do for their individual families.

Therefore, this should act as a guide for all intending organisations who have nursed the ambition of not confirming their married female staff among their midst to rescind their decision and look at the brighter side of the tunnel not just the light at the end of the tunnel.

From my own side is � banana.

Apple� has all the nutrients contained in other fruits.

I have observed with great accord how many Suya arcades across this part of the world usually have long cues of customers trying to catch their favourite tasty delicious meats of different body parts of animals Eg Rams, chicken, cow, goat etc. They also have price tags for these body parts which varies to a great extent to the others.

But what baffles me the most is why many of these customers prefer to buy them at night time. Is it that it tastes better then or that it is enjoyable with loved ones. Because I do know that people also go about there normal business during the day and as well can get suya in the afternoons but they prefer to buy instead at night hours. There is also alot of traffic of individuals during the day than at night but there is much market at night for these suya vendors than during the day.

Hence it leads to my question that why is Suya bestselling at night hours than during daytime?

Mr Tillerson’s future has been in doubt for months, although he has widely been seen as instrumental in leading the administration’s diplomatic pressure campaign on North Korea. In recent days, he appeared to express distance from Mr Trump’s historic decision to hold talks with North Korea leader Kim Jong UN, framing it as “a decision the president took himself”.

You will have no life!

Freelancers are always busy, they don't have time for most other activities. I don't know how it works but freelancing takes your life away. Your parents will complain, your babe will complain, your wife will even threaten you because you will develop true love for your laptop.

9) You will get greedy!

When I started off at upwork I was a young jobless graduate looking to earn 50k per month. After the first month I earn over 100k and got greedy. I increased my target to 150k and now I aim at earning over $2k per month.


10) You will spend money!

yes, unless you are caused or have no skills, you will make money! I once took my babe and two of her friends out and spend over 80k at a spot. my girl will never leave me, her friends now see me as a yahoo boy, I kinda like the feeling of being called 'sir' when I walk into a place.

Freelancing is bae...only if someone shows you the way!

P.S don't believe these bloggers, they are only cashing in on the craze. freelancers that actually make money don't have time to create a post about it.
Lastly, no matter your skills, someone has to show the way.

show me the way bro,have an account with upwork but not getting gigs, what could be the caus

The leadership of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, on Friday held a closed-door meeting with the representatives of the federal government.

The meeting, held at the Federal Ministry of Labour and Employment in Abuja, was to allow the lecturers brief the government on the outcome of the congresses by various chapters of ASUU.

PREMIUM TIMES reported how the various chapters of ASUU held congresses to review the offer of the federal government and decide whether or not to suspend their strike. Some of the branches wanted the strike suspended while others voted for a continuation.

Although the National Executive Council of the union reportedly met late Friday night to collate the stance of the various chapters, officials have kept sealed lips on what the decision of the lecturers is; until Friday’s unannounced meeting.

When a PREMIUM TIMES reporter arrived the venue of the meeting at about 7:15 p.m. on Friday, the various officials and the government delegation were seen coming out of the meeting.

They declined to comment on what was discussed.

However, Samuel Olowookere, the spokesperson of the Ministry of Labour and Employment told PREMIUM TIMES that that there will be another meeting between the government and ASUU by 3 p.m. on Monday.

The lecturers have been on strike for one month over several issues including non-payment of due salaries and allowances and poor funding of universities.

Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFUND) was established as an intervention agency under the TETFUND Act and charged with the responsibility for managing, disbursing and monitoring the education tax to public tertiary institutions in Nigeria. The mandate of the TETFUND is to administer and disburse the accrued fund to Federal and State tertiary educational institutions.
Academic Staff Training and Development (AST&) is one area that enables academic staff of Nigerian tertiary institutions apply for and get funded to undertake studies in Masters and PhDs at home and abroad. To apply for the AST& an academic staff will have to be nominated by their respective institutions that are also responsible for submitting the application to TETFUND.
It has become a norm that AST& fund is usually not allocated to institutions on time. A nominated academic staff will usually submit application for the AST& but will not receive grant until the following academic year. A staff will therefore have no alternative than to fund his studies and commence studying expecting that he will eventually be compensated. This is exactly what happened to the 2014/2015 and 2016/2017 TETFUND applicants. Academic staff of several tertiary institutions approved and nominated to benefit from TETFUND AST& having been released under a bond commenced their studies with the full hope that they will eventually be reimbursed when the AST& fund becomes available.
To their uttermost dismay however, with the appointment of the current TETFUND’s executive secretary, Dr. Abdullahi Baffa Bichi a new set of guidelines were set up. As good as the guidelines may appear to be, have however deprived and denied access to the AST& grants to those 2014/2015 and 2015/2016 seasons of academic staff whose applications have been submitted by their institutions and who have since commenced with their studies at home and abroad. The new guidelines used as an excuse to deny those nominated academic staff access to the fund was that “applications to the AST& grants must be made at the beginning of each quarter of the year and at least three months to the deadline of the application registration” In addition, “only applicants with admission in the top ranking universities around the world will be considered”. This made the new TETFUND’s executive secretary dismissed the 2014/2015 season applications as “belated” and for the 2015/2016 seasons foreign AST& applications some were dismissed as “low ranking” institutions. No one will deny that these guidelines will undoubtedly uplift the educational development of our various institutions. However, the implementation stage would have been the current 2016/2017 season. The new executive secretary should have cleared the backlog of 2014/2015 and 2015/2016 season who had applied prior to his assuming office and setting up his new guidelines. Various staff unions have attempted to seat and reason with him over the issue but to no avail as they have not been welcomed.
The result of all these is that several academic staff studying for their Masters and PhDs at home and abroad are now immersed in untold hardship and debt due to this disappointment. Some have abandoned their studies due to financial hardship, some have been dismissed from their institutions for failure to settle their registration fees, but many have persevered the hardship, disappointment and bitterness and have continued with their studies, but are in dire need of the AST& grant. The question now is what guidelines have this scholars violated? Has these new guidelines been in place and the scholars violated them? Will it harm the new executive secretary and the country in anyway if these scholars’ grants were released? Will their educational pursuits benefit the country or will it harm the country? Is the vision and mission of TETFUND not to promote education in the country?
I believe it is high time the new executive secretary reason and releases the fund of these scholars. Time for the President and all other meaningful Nigerians to come to the rescue of these scholars by intervening and making TETFUND executive secretary revoke his decision. These scholars have done no wrong. They all have commenced their studies with the full permission of their institutions and they all have evidence to prove so. The new executive secretary should have sought ways of penalizing these scholars institutions if they have been found wanting and not innocent scholars struggling to pursue their education to improve themselves and develop their country.
