Dtruthspeaker:
Since you admit that smoking is harmful, then you admit that it is a sin because sin is always about harm and offence.

Deliberately harming yourself is not a sin?
In that case coke, fanta, juicy steaks, booze, suya, salty snacks, delicious milk shakes, etc., are all sins.
The only thing not a sin is raw broccoli!

alot of the inventions you enjoy today were made by people who locked themselves inside a lab with smoking addiction to stay alert and put in work for earth to be a better place. Go to road and bridges construction projects alot of the engineers are smokers even back in school my engineering lecturers phd were smokers. i never understood until 200l when the process became tougher.

to me i see nothing absolutely wrong with it. i ve been to usa and it is not frowned on there infact you can do it anywhere even on the streets and still they are far ahead of us.
Speaking of USA, well, see below

Smoking is bad for the physical health but from the spiritual view in my opinion it doesn't matter because of Matthew15:11

'Matthew 15:11 Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.'

So if messing up your physical health is your kick .....knock yourself out
Shalom umunne m
BlessedOne01:
The Holy Scriptures speaks about The ALMIGHTY FATHER admonishing mankind that, it is NOT what "GOES INTO" you as a man that "defiles" you; But it is what "COMES OUT" from "INSIDE" of the man that "defiles" him!
Thoughts007:
The bible says it is not what goes into a man that defiles the man, but what proceeds from a man. Get your priorities right.
I see this verse mindlessly quoted all over. Can't you folks THINK for yourselves AT ALL?
So if you take sniper it does not defile you??

I haven't smoked weed in over two weeks. And I'm feeling energized and productive. I still love Maryjane as much as I love my babe, but let's be honest: weed is counterproductive.

God created marijuana for us to smoke and relieve pain, but we as humans have a tendency to abuse it. A stick once a week is fine, but smoking it every day is not. According to Americans, it has no effect and should be legalized. Haha... those dumb fuccks are looking for ways to make black Africans useless and addicted to the substance. According to recent research, smoking marijuana causes heart disease. The evidence is there.

Instead of wasting your life, drink coffee and stay productive. Shalom!
MJ is already 100% legal all over US.

Why did God create plants that will kill, just one bite?

Multiple Tenants Swindled By House Owner Using Building Control Agency As Excuse

A house owner, Alkolib Ibrahim Ayinde-Laka, is being hunted by the Police in Lagos over an alleged scam by obtaining money from multiple tenants under the false pretence of providing accommodation for them.


P.M.EXPRESS reports that Alkolib Ayinde-Laka went into hiding after obtaining money from multiple tenants with the assurance of each getting an apartment in his house located at No. 26 Omo Oba Jesu Street, Akowonjo, Lagos.


It was gathered that the suspect, Alkolib Ayinde-Laka, while renovating the said property, had obtained money from people much more than the number of apartments available in the said property while issuing receipts bearing Al Kolib Homes.


A source, who spoke to our correspondent, said that the suspect had the intention of providing accommodation for the tenants until the building control agency in the state, LASBCA, sealed the property for not providing the relevant documents. At that point, he was said to have obtained more money from unsuspecting members of the public in order to pay the required fees in order to have the property opened, which reportedly led to his inability to meet up with earlier promises to would be tenants, who hoped to access their apartments by the first week of December, 2022.

Another source had a different version. The source, who spoke under the condition of anonymity, said that the suspect, Alkolib Ayinde-Laka, was developing a private property somewhere else and only put the extra money he had collected into his private property using the notices pasted by the building control agency as an excuse to swindle the unsuspecting members of the public.

It was scooped that at the expiration of the date he had given the tenants to finally have access to the property, he continued to give assurances that he was working on procuring the relevant permits from the building control agency. With constant enquiries and phone calls, the suspect, Alkolib Ayinde-Laka, stopped picking up his calls and went into hiding.


P.M.EXPRESS correspondent gathered that the suspect, Alkolib Ayinde-Laka, who was said to be related to the Oba of Shasha Kingdom, may have run into financial problems, which prompted him to use the property as a bait to swindle unsuspecting members of the public.

Another source, a young man who lives within the area, alleged that the suspect, Alkolib Ayinde-Laka, had the intention to scam the unsuspecting tenants, who were mostly young Lagosians. He said that the suspect never allowed real estate agents to get involved by introducing their clients. He rather positioned and used his accomplices to coarse them to deal directly with him as the owner of the property.

As at the time of filing this report, his known phone number 08061744650 has remained switched off as he was said to have gone into hiding while the Police make efforts to apprehend him for interrogation and prosecution.

Stomach (peptic) ulcer care: Food to eat and avoid

27/02/2023

FOOD & NUTRITION, HEALTH & WELLNESS

Location of peptic ulcer. Human digestive system: esophagus, duodenum, stomach. Cross section of the human stomach. Vector illustration for medical, biological, educational and science use

Stomach (peptic) ulcer are open sores that develop in the lining of the gastrointestinal tract. Peptic ulcers include gastric ulcers that formed in the stomach while duodenal ulcers are form at the lining of the small intestine. Ulcers are usually caused by a bacteria Helicobacter Pylori that many people have in their stomach. Ulcers can be worst when there is over-secretion of acid in the stomach.

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) causes damage to the protective mucosal barrier of certain areas within the gastrointestinal tract, making it easier for acidic digestive fluid to injure and inflame the gut’s lining. Other causes of ulcer are from family history and from non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs like aspirin, ibuprofen and naproxen they are over the counter pains and fever drugs. Over time these drugs can cause damage to mucosal lining that protect the stomach. Although foo does not cause or heal ulcers, but some food can trigger ulcers while some can help you heal faster.


Symptoms of Stomach (peptic) Ulcers

Common symptoms include:

Pain in the upper abdomen

At night you wake up

Feeling empty after 1-3 hour of a meal

Heart burn and indigestion

Chest pain

Less common symptoms include:

Feeling full after eating small amount of food and problem with drinking fluid

Nausea and vomiting

Weight loss

Not feeling hungry

Bloody or black stool

Sudden sharp pain in the stomach

Vomiting blood.

Food to eat with Stomach (peptic) ulcers

Eat fiber rich food: Whole grain food like oats, cereal, brown rice and millet are rich in fiber that help decrease acidity. These foods are packed micronutrients such as iron, magnesium selenium and vitamin B helps with easing bloating and pain.

Eat food rich with probiotic: Foods like yoghurt, kefir, kimchi, kombucha and sauerkraut all contains good bacteria called probiotic. Probiotic help to fight against H. pylori bacteria and inhibit the formation of lesion in the gastric mucosa which can restore the stomach lining.

Eat food high in vitamin A: Food like sweet potatoes, cauliflower, carrot, spinach, cantaloupe and beef liver all contains a high level of vitamin A. According to some evidence Vitamin A nutrients helps to shrink stomach ulcers and prevent them.

Food rich in vitamin C: Food like bell pepper, broccoli, strawberries, kiwi’s helps to protect you from ulcers. Vitamin C play an important role for healing wounds. If you lack vitamin C you are likely to have Ulcers.

Eat low-fat protein: Food like tofu, tempeh, peas, lean meat, beef sirloin, tenderloins, skinless poultry, eggs and fish are all sources of low-fat protein. Protein is essential for muscle repair and prevention of infection that aid in the healing process of your ulcers.

Eat sea food: Sea food like salmon, mackerel, sardines, herring, tuna and oysters are high with omega-3 fatty acid that help to reduce inflammation which help to prevent more ulcer by reducing the damaging effects of gastritis.

Food to avoid with ulcers

Spicy and salty food cause irritation to the stomach lining, they are only trigger and don’t cause ulcers

Alcohol cause stomach inflammation that can lead to damage of the gastrointestinal tract

Caffeine such as coffee, caffeinated sodas and some chocolate increase the production of gastric acid and trigger the symptoms of acid reflux.

Acidic and fatty food attack the lining of the digestive tract making your ulcer worst

Milk causes production of stomach acid which irritates your gastric mucosa and worsen your ulcers.

Tips on how to manage your stomach ulcer

Be conscious about what you eat, when you eat, how you prepare your food and what you do after eating

Eat small meal, share your food into 5-6 portions spread them evenly to aid fast digestion and reduce the acid that are produced at a time

Eat your last meals 3 hours before bed. Avoid strenuous activities and lying down immediately you eat to prevent acid reflux.

Instead of fried food, try steaming, roasting or grilling your food these way help you reduce the fat in your food and make them easier to digest in the stomach.

Drink at least one glass of water every morning to cleanse your system. These helps to reduce stomach Acid.

When to see your doctor

Get medical help when you feel the following

Develop sudden sharp abdominal pain

Have rigid hard abdomen that is tender to touch

Feel shock such as fainting, excessive fainting or confusion

Vomit blood or blood in the stool

Dizzy or lightheaded.

Bottom line

Ulcer is an infection of he stomach that is caused by Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). most people with peptic ulcers have these bacteria living in their digestive tract, yet many people with these bacteria do not develop ulcers. Food does not cause ulcers, but there are some that trigger them and make them worse while some helps with the healing process of ulcers.

This is why we still have many rape cases in Nigeria! Forcing yourself on a woman was never and is never right- whether in your so-called primitive times or now! No woman wants to be forced! They may succumb out of powerlessness, but not because they want it! Please erase this mindset

@OP, Contact NGOs and Rights groups in the state through the ministry of women affairs or get someone in the gender unit of NSCDC or even the police. These organisations have active gender desks in at least one station. Look for WARDC, UNFPA desk office or FIDA.
Notice I put "forced" in quotes. It's a game that simply makes sex more interesting (exception being long-term partners). You never, never, NEVER force sex on anybody. NEVER!!!
Here's how I put it in an earlier post:

It is not forcefullness that way. It's a game you both understand. It is a little token resistance that you then overcome. It's more fun that way, than a woman simple throwing open her legs
