Are cold foods comfortable or hot foods during Summer?

There is a belief that hot foods eg. piping hot coffee,tea,soups are efficacious in summer because they induce perspiration which leaves the person feeling cooler.This is a myth.Taking hot foods to reduce body temperature will not only make you uncomfortable because of the heat but the sweat makes you feel worse.
Cold foods should be eaten,yes as well as no.While cold beverages and salads are comfortable in consuming, food that has been kept aside for many hours at room temperature might harbour bacteria.Food borne illnesses are an all time high in summer.The danger zone for rapid multiplication of bacteria is 4 to 60 degrees Celsius.
Spicy foods are also believed to be beneficial in beating heat.Though this is not true,spicy foods can get the gastric juices flowing and improve appetite in summer.Some Asian cuisines have spicy soups served cold-double benefit perhaps.
    Summer foods need to give energy and hydration.
Load yourself with water filled varieties of fruits and vegetables. Eat plenty of gourd and leafy veggies-bottle gourd,ridge gourd,snake gourd,mint..
Enjoy melons,tomatoes,mangoes and other summer fruits.Drink coconut water,lime juice,buttermilk.
Use sprouts as they are high in moisture content.
Drink lots of water.
Avoid fatty foods eg.fries,meat as they are difficult to digest.
Caffeinated beverages and alcohol are dehydrating.

Insurance of Life,Desi Cow's milk!

Insure your Life by Desi Cow's Milk!

Desi cow milk protects us from deadly diseases, Exotic (foreign) breed of cows has genes which increase elements of disease.This has come out from the research work done by AS Trusvel of Biochemistry dept. of Human Nutrition Unit University.

There is a lot of protein in Indian Cow's Milk
Milk has Beta-Casein protein which is of a1 & a2 type.a1 protein is harmful to health,whereas a2 protein is good for health. According to AS Trusvel Indian cow breeds(Tharparker,Gangatiri,Sahiwal,Haryana etc) genes have a2.
Exotic cows(Holstein Freezon and Jersey) have a1 genes which increase risk of these diseases.According to research Holstein Freezon cow milk has a1 type 60 to 70% Beta Casein and Jersey cow milk has up to 40%.
Exotic cow breed has so much a1 type beta casein that it increases risk of diabetes many times.
a2 milk is 100% nature fresh Desi cow's milk which you may find easier to digest than regular cow's milk.

Do you experience indigestion when you have milk?
Symptoms of indigestion:
1)feeling uncomfortably full or heavy.
2)belching.
3)bringing food back up from your stomach.
4)bloating.
5)feeling sick.
6)vomiting.

For millions of people it may not be lactose intolerance, but they may be reacting to intolerance to a1 protein.

Scientific side
a1 milk releases a peptide called BCM 7(Beta Casein Morphine 7).The peptide is not broken down into amino acid making it impossible to digest and has been associated with a very large number of diseases.Thus BCM 7 is the "Devil in Milk" which is not present in desi cow's milk.

Milk in detail

1)Milk consists of about 80% of water.
2)Remaining 15% is fat,minerals, proteins and sugar lactose.
3)80% protein is Casein and 20% Whey.
4)Beta Casein is 30% of total protein content in cow milk.

Milk Nutrition
Milk is one of the richest food sources of calcium which helps build strong bones and healthy teeth.
According to the Dairy Council, a 200 ml glass of cow milk can provide over half (55%) of a child's daily calcium requirement and over one third (35%) for an adult.


Sooo.., insure life by ensuring you drink Desi cow's milk which has a2 type beta casein protein.

So well said,
Insurance of Life,Desi cow's milk!
Ensure you drink Desi cow's milk if you want to prevent diseases such as diabetes and cancer.

Wide Area Network or WAN

WAN spans a large geographical area,often a country or continent. The job of the subnet is to carry messages from host to host,just as telephone system carries words from speaker to listener.
    In most wide area n/ws,the subnet consists of 2 distinct components : transmission lines & switching elements.
Transmission lines move bits between machines. They can be made of copper wire,optical fiber or even radio links.
When data arrive on an incoming line,the switching element must choose an outgoing line on which to forward them.
Switching element is also called router.

Habitat and Adaptation in Amphibia continued - Amphibious forms

Amphibious Forms


These are certain amphibians which can live on land and water with same expertise eg.some animals have swimming mode of locomotion in water and jumping habit on land.They use their hind limb for swimming in place of tail fin as in case of aquatic amphibians. Aquatic adaptations found in these Anurans are as follows-
1)Compact boat shaped body.
2)Highly developed powerful muscles in hind limbs for effective swimming strokes.
3)Webbed hind limb digits.
4)Cutaneous respiration.

Google's Teddy Bear will take care of children!

In near future toys will not only be for playing of children, but they will also take care of children.
    Google has patented internet toys Hollice.These toys will control the whole house,they will listen to children while they are talking and thus will perform detective activity on children. These toys in the shape of Teddy Bear will control TV,music system and electricity.

A new Human Species found in Africa

    Remains of a new species of humans have been found in Afar region of Ethiopia in Africa.
   These are 33 to 35 years old.According to research work published in Science Magazine 'Nature' this new species has been named 'Australopithecus deyiremeda'.

Computer Ergonomics

Unfortunately prolonged postures, coupled with high levels of concentration & the occasional frustration of things going less than perfectly can lead to physical problems. A little knowledge of principles of ergonomics, how people interact safely & efficiently with machines & their work environment can save a lot of discomfort & maximize both productivity & enjoyment.

Machine setup

Visibility
You must be able to see what you are doing easily to avoid eye strain & neck pain.Have adequate light.

Chairs
Experiment with chair height and tilt until you get it the way your body likes.

Keyboard
Be sure to get the height right to prevent too much bend at the wrist & have some support. The arms should hang loose to prevent the shoulder muscles from cramping.

Mouse
The continual clicking & small,precise motions involved in mouse use are a repetitive action that can be a health hazard.A few basic rules can help-
1)Hold mouse loosely. Use a light touch when you click.
2)Use your whole arm & shoulder to move the mouse not just your wrist.
3)Keep wrist relaxed & neutral not bent.
4)Avoid prolonged postures.Rotate your shoulders,gently shake your hands & fingers.



Human Set Up

Posture
Footrests help as cushions if your chair is not providing adequate support.

Eyes
Look away from the screen occasionally. Blinking moistens the eyes to prevent burning from dryness.

Warm Up
Do neck stretches,wrist wiggles & leg stretches before login

Breaks
At least once an hour,get right up off your seat & walk around, stretch,yawn,get the blood flowing & stimulate the joints.

Habitat and adaptation in Amphibia Page 6- Aquatic Forms

They are found to inhabit water bodies and adopt swimming mode of locomotion.They have certain modifications for swimming purpose as well as aquatic habitat.
1)Eel type body construction.
2)Presence of gills for respiration.
3)Development of fins.
4)Presence of weak limbs.
5)Lidless eyes.
Eg.Salamander,Proteus etc

Reduce Fast Food Craving by Cashewnuts,Almonds


Does your child make faces when you give him fruits-veggies, milk,curd?
Does your child want to eat pizza-burger,noodles from breakfast to dinner?If yes,almonds,groundnut or boiled eggs along with lunch.This has been suggested by Missouri University Researchers?
   These protein rich foods not only fulfil satire for food but they also reduce craving for fast food.These play a vital role in reducing the danger by type-2 diabetes, heart disease,weightgain and death due to stroke.
Under Hither Lady,Researchers studied the food habits in 1000 children 13 to 19 years of age.They found out whether deficit of some nutrient was the basis of craving for fast food. By research it was found that taking less protein rich food was the main reason for craving for fast food.

Enemies of Weight Gain
Almond,groundnut, egg, fish,pulses,beans,curd,pumpkin seeds

Soya Products
sprouted soybean, soya nuggets, soya milk,soya pander,tofu,soya chips

Other Benefits
1)Limit cholesterol and reduce risk of heart disease.
2)Increase memory & logic capability.
3)Good for hair,bring glow to skin.
