 Health › How Long You Live Depends On How Long Mom And Pop Lived – New Study by Vee1Vee1(op): 10:08pm On Aug 17, 2016 |
A new study has shown that the longer parents lived, the longer offspring are also likely to live. The research, released on Wednesday, August 17, 2016 by the Medical Research Council (MRC) in London also indicated that children of long-lived parents are more likely to stay healthy in their sixties and seventies. It is the largest study of its type ever conducted, according to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN). The eight year study led by the University of Exeter also involved an international team of academics from the University of Cambridge (UK), UConn Centre on Aging at UConn Health in Connecticut, USA, the French National Institute of Health, and the Indian Institute of Public Health. The researchers noted that those with longer-lived parents have with much lower rates of heart conditions and some cancers. http://www.istylmagazine.com/lifestyle/health/how-long-you-live-depends-on-how-long-mom-and-pop-lived-new-study/ |

| Politics › Crisis In Ondo Apc As Members “impeach” Chairman Over “tinubu’s Endorsement by Vee1Vee1(op): 5:34pm On Aug 16, 2016 |
At the time journalists visited the secretariat, the members were waiving placards, protesting the rumoured endorsement of one of the aspirants, Olusegun Abraham, by the national leader of the party, Bola Tinubu. They alleged that Mr. Kekemeke had compromised his position by allowing the “imposition” of a candidate in spite of the agreement that all aspirants should prove their popularity at the primary election. The rumoured endorsement by Mr. Tinubu was disclosed by a governorship aspirant, Tunji Abayomi, in a letter he wrote to Mr. Tinubu, challenging the latter’s interference in the democratic process in the state. http://www.istylmagazine.com/news/politics/breaking-crisis-in-ondo-apc-as-members-impeach-chairman-over-tinubus-endorsement-of-candidate/ |
| Health › Food Commercials Change Children’s Eating Priorities by Vee1Vee1(op): 1:39pm On Aug 16, 2016 |
Junk food is a significant contributor to the skyrocketing rates of childhood obesity, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, and high blood pressure. Children are exposed to food advertising – including junk food commercials – multiple times a day. Researchers have found that these advertisements directly influence children’s food choices and brain activity, and they may be a factor in overeating and the associated health risks. The food industry spends around $1.8 billion a year marketing products to children and adolescents. Children between the ages of 2-5 years are estimated to view more than 1,000 advertisements per year, and teenagers almost 2,000. Food marketing is cited as a substantial environmental factor in food choices and overeating, and, as a result, obesity, and TV advertising and branding have been shown to affect both food familiarity and preference. Previous research indicates that children who view advertisements are more likely to prefer branded foods than children not exposed to advertisements. Behavioral studies have reported an association between receptivity to food commercials and the amount of food consumed. Other studies have observed that children who are overweight may be more responsive to food branding and, as a result, are at a greater risk of being influenced by marketing. Research has demonstrated a relationship between marketing junk foods and an increased risk of childhood obesity. A previous study by lead study author Amanda S. Bruce, Ph.D., assistant professor of behavioral pediatrics at the University of Kansas Medical Center, documented individual differences in brain activation in response to food advertising cues, such as fast food brand logos. http://www.istylmagazine.com/lifestyle/health/food-commercials-change-childrens-eating-priorities/ |
| Politics › Okonjo-iweala: I Said Governors, Not Jonathan, Lacked The Political Will To Save by Vee1Vee1(op): 1:06pm On Aug 16, 2016 |
Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, former minister of finance, says her statement blaming the lack of political will to save funds under the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan has been taken out of context. Speaking on the Chilean saving example at the George Washington University on Thursday, the former minister had said “zero political will to save in the last administration” was responsible for some of the challenges facing the country. But in a statement issued on Friday, Paul Nwabuikwu, media aide of the two-time minister, said Okonjo-Iweala was referring to the opposition of some governors to the efforts of the immediate past administration to save in the excess crude account (ECA) and in sovereign wealth fund (SWF). http://www.istylmagazine.com/news/africa/okonjo-iweala-i-said-governors-not-jonathan-lacked-the-political-will-to-save/ 1 Like |

| Crime › 80-year Old Woman Accused Of Drugging And Robbing Men She Met Via Newspaper Ads by Vee1Vee1(op): 9:57am On Aug 10, 2016 |
An 80-year-old woman in Poland drugged and stole from a string of suitors she met through dating ads in her local newspaper — a crime that could put her behind bars for 20 years, investigators told AFP on Tuesday. Prosecutors claim the suspect, identified as Janina M., would sneak the powerful sedative lorazepam into her victims’ food, lulling them to sleep during what they thought was a romantic meal. In one particular case, the woman was accused of snatching $2,000 in cash, jewelry and electronics from a 78-year-old man who’d invited her to his home in Szczurow, east of Krakow. “I’d never have imagined this lady was capable of doing something like this, nor that she’s 80,” prosecutor Andrzej Lesniak said Click here for full story http://www.istylmagazine.com/news/across-the-world/woman-80-accused-of-drugging-robbing-men-she-met-via-newspaper-ads/ |

Findings from a US-based study seem to support the idea that people with a high IQ get bored less easily, leading them to spend more time engaged in thought. And active people may be more physical as they need to stimulate their minds with external activities, either to escape their thoughts or because they get bored quickly.

| Health › Beer Drinkers Are At A Higher Risk Of Being Bitten By Mosquitoes by Vee1Vee1(op): 11:23am On Jul 28, 2016 |
Female mosquitoes tend to have a preference for biting some people over others. The exact reasons for this are not yet fully known, however. It is understood that carbon dioxide is one of the biggest attractors, causing mosquitoes to travel from up to 35 meters away to feed on their chosen prey. Some people, including those who are overweight or pregnant, naturally give off more carbon dioxide than others. Body heat, movement, and body odors such as sweat and lactic acid also play a role in attracting mosquitoes. Some research suggests that beer drinkers are at a higher risk of being bitten by mosquitoes. http://www.istylmagazine.com/lifestyle/health/mosquitoes-beer-drinkers-are-at-a-higher-risk-of-being-bitten-researchers-say/ |
