   Every one wants to have thick , shiny , lustrous , and dense hair on their scalping but to some some of our mistakes that we do mistakenly to our hair , begets opposite results.  Try these following rules for better hair growth :

●AVOID EXCESS OIL 

  Just as our skin needs to breathe , so does our scalp . Applying excess oil blocks the tiny pores of the hair and clogs it which may cause hair fall. Further more , if the oil is not washed off properly , it may cause dandruff . Apply the right quantity of oil to your scalp. For best results , apply lukewarm oil on the scalp, massage it for 5-10 mind and then wash it after an hour or two.

●AVOID VIGOROUS HAIR DRYING 

   When our hair is wet , it's fragile weak and more susceptible to breakage . So after a bath , do not use towel vigorously to dry it. Girls should squeeze the excess water from the hair gently and then pat it dry 

●AVOID WET HAIR COMBING 

  Combing wet hair  may not be a good idea . Pat to semi dry it  then comb gently a few times with preferable a wooden comb and then let it air dry naturally .Once fully dried , comb it to give the desired hair style you need 

●AVOID TIGHT CAPS / BRAIDS 

 

   Traction Alopecia -Wearing tight caps , woolen caps , jacket caps, tight braids , ponytails can also lead to hair breakage as it can reduce the circulation of blood to the scalp and also hair thinning . Hair fall may also occur due to friction of these tight caps /hair styles 

●USE ONION JUICE FOR HAIR GROWTH

   Study has proven that application of onion juice can grow hair due to the sulphur content in them , which increases hair circulation , promoting new hair growth . Works more for men than women . Simply grate an onion , extract it's juice and apply for 2 hrs with a gentle scalp massage , then wash with any organic shampoo

 ●FENUGREEK WATER/PASTE FOR HAIR GROWTH

 Fenugreek has been used from ancient times for hair growth and thickening . Other than proteins vitamin, lecithin &minerals it has nicotinic acid content which is helpful in treating dandruff & hair growth . Soak half cup fenugreek seeds over night in 1/2 litre water, strain this water next morning and apply/pour it on ur hair next day after bath and then dry your hair . Second method is grind the left over seeds to a paste and applied as a hair mask . You can add yoghurt to it . Wash with any organic shampoo after 1-2 hrs . Can be done daily

Use these followings tips to get hair growth . Eating a diet of fruits and veggies , proteins , whole grains foods also aid in hair regrowth & overall hair health . Use organic shampoos instead of chemical based shampoos because they are one of the main culprits responsible in current time in hair loss .

Save trees

SAVE TRESS AND IN TURN SAVE THE PLANET & YOURSELVES !!

                         Image : Google.com

 A tree  absorbs carbon dioxide( CO2 )and converts it into oxygen or stores that CO2 in itself, which is released by humans via breathing , burning fossil fuels like coal , petroleum/crude oil , natural gas etc .Tress also absorbs potentially harmful gasses like sulphur dioxide , carbon mono oxide from the air and release oxygen . A 80 year old beech tree approximately  absorbes 1ton of CO2 in its life span i.e. 12.5 kg of CO2 every year !! Where as a human breaths 1 kg of CO2 gas /day which is just 7% of CO2 that is produced by burning fossils fuels/day !!
Trees/ Plant play very important role in our life by providing us with food fruits and oxygen , the basic needs for our survival . They are homes to birds ,squirrels and also wildlife  creatures . They also are useful in removing heavy metals from contaminated sites .Trees like neem and ashok help in reducing noise pollutions . They are also a source of our timber needs and medicinal requirements . Provide us cotton hence clothing too.
Of late we have been hearing many deaths by heat waves from various part of our country and abroad . Definitely those areas were having less trees which led to high temperature and death!! Further more trees help in flood controls by reducing the force of flood waters. They are also wind breakers i.e. control the wind speeds . They can absorb tonnes of flood water. They also prevent soil erosion .

                               Image source : EPA.gov

Since 1850 , the earth's temperature has risen by a whopping 36% and everyone is felling the heat !! More than 4 million trees cut per year just for paper use and with half of the planet's forest gone , the amount of CO2 is rising day by day . With more CO2 in the atmosphere , the Sun's radiation ,instead of reflecting back to the space , is being reflected on our earth , leading to rise in temperature levels.

HOW CAN WE HELP
If you have space in your lawn , plant any tress like mango , guava etc . If having less space , you can grow plants in pots. If you do not have spaces , support the NGOs engaged in planting tress , by donating to them .
Please do not wait for the government to do every thing for you . They have their own focuses or works. Go and buy a seed of any plant in a local weekly vegetable market (yeah !! You'll get it there ) , come home , dig a little hole and plant that seed . Just nurture it and it'll grow up to be you best friend for your life , giving u shade and fruit and most importantly oxygen , without which we can't survive for more than a minute!!

CAN CINNAMON HELP IN CURING DIABETES

CAN #CINNAMON HELP IN CURING DIABETES  & REAL VS FAKE CINNAMON

INTRODUCTION 

[If  in a hurry , you can scroll down to see the study of cinnamon VS diabetes ]

Diabetes has become one of the most common diseases now a days which has affected approximately 415 million people in the world i.e. roughly 1 in every 11 person is a diabetic !! The figures are expected to rise upto 642 million by 2040 (source : diabetes.co.uk).

Image source : Wikipedia 

  What is CINNAMON ?

It is spice that has been extracted from the inner bark of cinnamonum verum tree having the properties of anti immflamatory , anti diabetic anti cancer , immunity booster , anti bacterial & fungal , heart friendly among others . It's has the highest anti oxidant in comparison to top 26 herbs  like oregano garlic clove etc . (Sources NCIB/NLM.)

SO WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED ?

Cinnamon is widely used in Indian dishes from veg pulao to non veg biryanis to ayurvedic medicines . It's used in the treatment of arthritis ,weight loss , lowering heart diseases (cuts bad cholesterol LDL and triglycerides) , treatment of Alzhimer's & Parkinson diseases etc and the most important in diabetic treatments .

An IT professional Mr John ,58 years old , had started consuming cinnamon to control his diabetes but after some time developed liver problems . Later it was found out that use of cassia , a cheap species imported from Vietnam & China , was the real culprit. It resembles cinnamon. After mr John stopped taking cinnamon his liver started recovering gradually .

Indian govt states that the annual consumption of cinnamon is 12000 tonnes annual . It imports 10000 tonnes of cassia from China Vietnam & Indonesia and 200 tonnes of cinnamon from Srilanka.India's domestic production rate is just 80-100 tonnes/yr. But contrary to the govt reports one trader from Kanpur had alone imported 9500 tonnes so the consumption rate may be way way above the govt figures. And guess what the market is surely flooded with these fake cassia , which replaces the original cinnamon . Import rates of cassia around 2015 was RS 35/kg and cinnamon was RS 200/kg which is further sold @ 150 -600/kg . A study by IITR , Lucknow found that coumarin , a chemical found in cassia , the fake cinnamon , damages liver & kidney . (Source - downtoearth.org.in)

Cassia imports from Vietnam were temperorily banned (around aug 2016) but again the ban was revoked around March  2017 , which definately is not a good news

   

REAL VS FAKE IDENTIFICATION METHODS !!

Have you ever gone to the market and bought those hard dark brown cinnamon sticks or sometimes bought sticks in the name of cinnamon , which do not emit any or little fragrance ? I now remember the mistakes which I had done earlier as I did not know how to differentiate btw fake & real cinnamon 

Fake cinnamon or cassia , is generally grown in China Vietnam and Indonesia where as the real cinnamon grows in Srilanka. In India it's grown  in Kerela and some parts of North East . Cassia , other than causing liver &kidney damage may cause headaches & digestive problems . An article in Oct ,2015 TOI stated that cassai may be carcinogenic i.e. may cause cancer .

THE DIFFERENCES : 

• The real cinnamon will have many spirals designs inside (see the cover pic properly) where as the fake cinnamon will have a tunnel kind of hole inside it .There will be nothing spiral inside it . 

• The real cinnamon is very fragile / weak , hence it breaks easily but the fake cassia is not easy to break • The real cinnamon is light brown in colour where as the fake cinnamon will have a dark brown or reddish brown colour

• Real cinnamon can be grounded to powder very easily at home but it won't be the same case with fake cinnamon 

• Real cinnamon has a delicate aromatic smell where as the fake cinnamon gives a pungent strong aromatic smell 

• Real cinnamon powder will be smooth where the fake cinnamon powder will be coarse (Sources - downtoearth.org.in / Dr . Vivek Joshi )

Will update it when I find any new trick/news on this . 

HOW WILL IT HELP .

Sometimes we may find real cinnamon in our local markets or shops . Use the above mentioned tricks to spot the differences . Further more , buy from trusted shops/aruyveic centres  in your area who sell organic products . Buy whole cinnamon than buying it's powdered form .

CINNAMON VS DIABETES 

Cinnamon reacts with the following herbs
Bitter melon , garlic , Siberian ginseng , panax , Devils claw , Fenugreek , chromium , horse chestnut and certain diabetes medicines so cheak with your doc before using them .Find all the evidences / sources at the end of the post .

CAN CINNAMON REVERSE DIABETES .

The article was published on the website diabetes.co.uk (1) dated ?? , The ARM found that consumption of 1 gram / day of cinnamon can increase insulin sensitivity and management or curbing diabetes totally and cinnamon was shown to be the most effective one (2)  The basis was a research done by Dr Anderson & team on animals to see the effectiveness of 49 herbs including falxseed , gensing basil etc , in which cinnamon proved to be the most effective one . Further more the article states that consumption of 6grams of cinnamon after meal reduced high blood sugar levels .

SO WHATS NEW .

A test on 8 individuals aged 25 yrs + showed that it can imitate as insulin and lower blood sugar by moving glucose to the cells (3)

In a small study of 7 humans aged 26+ , it was found that consuming 5g of cinnamon powder reduced insulin sensitivity( acts as natural insulin ) immidiately after consumption  for a period of12 hours (4)

CONCLUSION

Cinnamon has the potential to curb diabetes though more tests on a large basis is required . Always use original cinnamon powder and not cassia cinnamon , which is a fake cinnamon .
As in all the tests 1-6 grams of powder has been used , you can drink 1-6 grams(appx. 1 and half teaspoon) of cinnamon powder one hour before breakfast with a glass of water . Do not eat anything one hour after or before consuming the powder . Consult your doctor for the amount of powder you should eat . Over consumption of anything is harmful for health so always follow dosage instructions .
Last two lines , also make necessary changes in your life styles . Do exercise , walking for min 1 hr per day and avoid junk foods , colas , alcohol , smoking as this disease can be countered by leaving/avoiding those things/habit which aggravates the blood sugar level . Be relaxed , do not take stress . Eat fresh seasonal green leafy vegetables , fruits & foods . Good luck 😊

WHAT DOES THE COLOUR AND TEXTURE OF YOUR POOP TELLS ABOUT YOUR HEALTH !!

WHAT DOES THE COLOUR AND TEXTURE OF YOUR POOP TELLS ABOUT YOUR HEALTH !!

  We need to poop or excrete more or less each day to let out the undigested waste in form of solid , semi solid or liquid from our intestines . But little do we care to sometimes cheak the texture and colour of this waste . Little vigilance on our part can save us from many diseases . 

WHAT IS NORMAL POOPING ?

  Doctors state that if anyone excretes soft or semi - solid waste from 3 times a day to once in 3 days (to be precise 3 times /week) , falls under the category of normal poopers or persons whose bowels are functioning normally . Any thing which is more may fall under the category of diahorrhea /dysentery and anything less falls under the category of constipation respectively.

  We can divide our poop texture into 7 types which can further be divided into the below mentioned  broad categories .

CONSTIPATION

  It is a condition in which the stools are hard to pass through and they have lack of proper or normal bowel movements . The causes may vary from physical inactivity , certain medications , age , lack of fibre intake , pregnancy , over use of laxatives etc. Suppressing the urge to poop may also be one of the factors responsible for it.
  Females and males should try to eat 20 grams & 26 grams of fibre per day respectively. Drink plenty of water . Some cases of constipation may be cured by drinking warm water in the mornings or eating 3-4 grams(for adults) of Triphala powder before going to bed . If it still persists , kindly cheak with a doctor asap

 Type 1 - As you can see , this type of stools are separate hard lumps like nuts. They are difficult to pass through while excreting . Severe constipation

Type 2 - They are sausage shaped but lumpy . Mild constipation

NORMAL POOP

  These are the ideal poop which suggest that you are in a healthy state and try to maintain remaining in this category by eating fresh leafy seasonal vegetable and foods . Avoid excess alcohol smoking .

Type 3 - It is smooth and soft , with the shape like sausage or a snake

Type 4 - Shape is like a sausage but cracks on its surface . Consumption of more liquids is advised .

DIARRHOEA /DYSENTRY & URGENCY
   
This category requires immediate attention as it may indicate :
 Diarrhoea  - It is characterised by three or more loose , watery or liquid stools per day . Its general causes are contaminated food and water.
 Dysentry - It is generally caused by a particular type of bacteria or amoeba which can lead to severe or mild stomach cramps, fever  and severe diarrhoea with blood or mucus.
   Both the above mentioned diseases can be fatal if immediate medical help is not sought out for.

Type 5 - It's in the shape of soft blobs with defined edges and passes easily . You should increase the consumption of fibre through fruits vegetables & cereals. 

Type 6 - The shapes are similar to fluffy pieces with ragged edges , a mushy poop. Mild diarrhoea . Drink more water & fruit juices .

Type 7 - Watery liquid without any solid pieces .

Further more the colour of our Stool also indicates our overall health . According to Mayo Clinic these colours indicate :

BROWN - This generally regarded as the normal colour of the feces/poop. The body has absorbed all the nutrients and the food has been digested well .

YELLOW - This colour indicates excess excess fat in stool , such as due to malabsorption disorder for example Celtic disease 

GREEN - This colour indicates that you may have eaten diets having green colouring or ice pops /iron supplements or excess green leafy vegetables 

WHITE /CLAY OR LIGHT COLOURED - This colour is generally caused by lack of biles in the stool i.e. inability of digestive system to absorb fats properly . 

BLACK - This colour may be caused by consumptions of iron supplements ,bismuth subsalicylate , black licorice . It may also be caused by internal bleeding of the stomach due to cancer or ulcers. In the latter case consult doctor immediately .

RED /BRIGHT RED - It may be due to eating of foods like beets,tomato juices or soup etc (in this case , stool will return to normal colour within a day or two ) or may be due to internal bleeding caused by ulcers or even cancer . Consult doctor immediately .

 CONCLUSION

 Unhealthy stomach is the cause of many diseases. So in order to keep  it healthy , we must eat lots of fruits  and vegetables which are fresh and seasonal for the proper functioning of our digestive system . One should target eating a minimum of 30 grams of fibre per day with adequate water intake . Always wash hands before eating and always drink boiled or filtered water . Do regular exercise / meditation for minimum 30 minutes or do walking for an hour every day . Avoid junk foods like pizzas , french fries etc and  colas .

    These coils , creams etc have negative effect on our health  in the long run , especially infants . Studies in Taiwan & China have confirmed that long use of smokes from these products causes cancer . The pesticide "pyrethrin " used by some manufacturers in coils are very harmful for human nerves and brain's health . Further more , Dr Salvi adds burning of a mosquito coil in a closed room is equal to smoking 100 cigarette !! Just imagine the potential damage that a coil can do .
    The babies , infants & children suffer the most as their  small lungs are unable to cope with these harmful gasses and get allergies/asthma  at a very young age if they inhale these smokes consistently .

I use this method personally as it's 💯 % natural  to get rid of mosquitos from my room !! More so over you would also be safe from asthama , cancer , headaches , drizziness  that is cause by burning chemical based mosquito repellents like coil liquids etc

METHOD - 1

-Take a  empty mosquito  liquid refill vapouriser bottle (EMLRVB)
- Wash it with soap , the bottle and the carbon rod
 - Dry it
- Crush 4 camphor balls ( Kapoor / कपूर which is used in puja/aarti/festivals , don't  get confused with napthaline balls coz they r different & using them will harm you )
- Now fill 80%of the EMLRVB with neem oil
- Put the crushed powder of camphor balls and mix it with a thin stick/empty pen refill
- Now put it in the machine (like all-out/good night machine) , tighten it and use it as u use a mosquito repellant machine .

EFFICENCY & ECONOMY

 It's way more economical than the good night /all-out you buy . And if you know how to make neem oil at home , it's becomes more cheaper . It is 70 -80 % effective  compared to a commercial mosquito machine with 0 side effects . It will last for more than 8 months !!

MAINTAINCE
  Wash the carbon rod every month for best results .You can add 1-2 crushed kapoor in the remaining oil every month for best results

METHOD -2

 

               Image source : additionstudio.com

Take a diya/ दिया /earthen burner/oil burner . Put mustard oil & neem oil in the ratio 4:1 . Burn it . This will help you to be safe from mosquito's in case of electricity cut . Or you can use it at places like balconies where there are mosquito's .

METHOD 3

If you are not allergic to neem oil , you can apply it on your body too
One more method is to boil neem leaves and tulsi for 6-8 mins in the ratio of 1:4 and sprinkle that water with the help of a sprayer at the corners of your room .

Another method keep 1 kapoor on every corner  of the room as it's smell irritates the mosquitoes . They can't stand this smell for long

ONIONS

                               Image : need pix

Mosquitoes can't stand the smell of onions due to its sulphur content , even if it's present thinly in the air

METHOD 1

-Cut a medium size round layer from the middle of an onion
-remove the inner ring from the cut layer so that there is a hole in the middle
- Place it on the top of your mosquito repellent machine, the hole in the middle will allow the vapour from the machine  escape to the air without any problem
 -the top of the machine will get heated up and in turn vaporise onion juice and disperse it in the air
This method is for lazy people  but is effective

METHOD 2

-Cut a thin cardboard similar to the size of  mosquito repelent machine's upper size
- make a small round hole in the middle
-now grate an onion
 -put this pulp around the cardboard that you just cut
-now carefully place it on the top of the machine
 -change the pulp every 2-3 days .
    When it become dry , just add few drops of water on the pulp from all sides

METHOD 3
-grate a small onion in a bowl
-add 2 cups of filtered water and mix it
-strain this into a sprayer (you can use the remaining pulp in your vegetables )
-spray at the corners of your room or on the window panels

METHOD - 4
- Take 4-5 bay leaves
-Sprinkle some neem oil in which you had mixed crushed camphor powder
- Burn them
The smell from bay leaves will make mosquitoes go crazy and they will fly outta the room .

CONCLUSION

  Also use mosquito net when you sleep at night . Wear full sleeve loose clothing because the mosquitoe's sting won't reach you easily if you wear loose clothes. Make sure water drains are not water clogged because it's the place suitable for mosquitoes to lay eggs /breed.

THIS JUICE CAN CURE STAGE -4 CANCER

THIS JUICE CAN CURE STAGE -4 CANCER

Are you eating carrots or drinking it's juice on a regular basis ? If so , you are on the right track of preventing and fighting cancer . According to a survey it was found that just drinking 10 grams of carrots juice per day can reduce cancer risks by 5-6 % !!

Further more , the American Institute of Cancer Research (AICR) has put carrots in top 20 foods that fights cancer . Carrots contain beta & alpha carotine ,which our body converts into vitamin A . This vitamin is important for immunity functions ,maintaing healthy cells and kills or stops the growth of cancerous cells/tumours. (1).

It further states that luteolin , a flavonoid found in carrots has antioxidant , anti inflammatory & anti cancer effects in lab studies.

THE JUICE THAT BEATS CANCER

    This is the exact way to make carrot juice which saved RALPH (ralph90015@yahoo.com) from stage 4 cancer

• Take 2.25 kilos of carrot
• Wash them briefly in water
• Cut each carrots top and bottom portion (don't peel it's skin. Peel only that area which has something unusual.)
• Extract it's juice with the help of  a juicer 
• Drink this juice many times a times 
• Do it daily for fast recovery 

He , during his time of treatment did not use organic carrots .They were the normal carrots so if you use organic ones , it'll be more beneficial .He did not use a blender because juicer/juice extractors have more potential to extract the juices. Also a juice extractor removes the indigestible part of the carrot , leaving watery juice that is easy to drink states Ralph   . Do not peel it's skin , as it contains important vitamins /enzymes and falcarindoil , which  help in fighting cancer cells. He also states that one cup of juice to be consume per 30lb  of your weight per day .

WHAT TO QUIT
You have to quit eating sugar and vegetables oils plus filtered/ double filtered oils during the whole period .Also quit tobacco .

RALPH COLE - THE MAN WHO INVENTED HIS OWN FORMULA FOR KILLING STAGE 4 CANCERS

He was diagnosed with cancer of the neck in 2005 , which was spreading to other parts of his body. And he was told to do surgery ,chemo and radiation . Before surgery , he was advised by a friend to take carrot juice as his wife had cured her ovarian cancer by drinking the juice .
Ralph stated drinking 3 pounds (1 pound = 450 grams appx) .A pounds of carrots yeilds appx 1 cup of its juice .

Four months later when he was about to have surgery , fresh MRI (cancer scan) showed that his cancer tumours had shrinked in size . But since the doctors insisted , he did chemo and radiations but avoided the surgery
After 4 months , 2 months of chemo & radiation therapy , the tumours were gone . He stopped drinking carrot juices as he was in doubt that it was chemo & radiation therapy that killed the tumours or the carrot juices .
But shortly after he stopped drinking the carrot juices , again the cancer tumours started to show up in lumps on his chest . So this time he increased his intake of carrot juices by juicing and drinking 5 pounds (2.25kilo app) carrot juices per day which yielded about 5 cups of carrot juice . After the tumour was totally gone , he still drank carrot juice daily for a month . And now he is fit and fine . You can read his full detailed story at www.chrisbeatcancer.com . He is healthy now in 2019 and replies to cancer patients on his BLOG. In here you can interact with him and ask questions on cancer.If you or your relative/friend has cancer ,I'd highly recommend you to scan his blog thoroughly for any new developments . Many cancer patients take his advise , some are even from India .

ANN CAMERON

 She also saved herself from cancer following the procedure of drinking carrot juices . She was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer in June 2012 , got a surgery to remove the cancer but refused chemotherapy as she felt much better .
But to her horror in November itself that year , a cancer scan showed that her colon cancer had grown from stage 3 to stage 4 and  had spread to her lungs . The doctors had told her that she can only survive for 1 or 2 more years even after she had a chemo therapy .
So in this period she came across the article by Rolph Cole stating he had cured his neck cancer by drinking carrot juice which is also effective against various other type of cancers , on the internet .
So from Nov '12 , she began juicing 5 pounds /lbs of carrots daily and drank it . In the mean time , she did not take any chemo , radiation or surgery for her colon or lung tumors . She used to eat her non veg dishes and ice cream unlike Rolph , who did not use them during his self treatment period .
After 1 and half months , Ann went for a cancer scan and found that her cancer tumours had shrunk in size . Again after 4 months of starting the carrot juicing , scan showed that cancer tumours in the lung had vanished. She continued drinking carrots juice till July '13 and there were no cancer traces in her body . She was cancer free and is still living at this time .

CONCLUSION

We saw two , or there may be many more who have cured themselves from cancer by drinking carrot juices . Insired by these , some new researches are undergoing on the use of mixed juices of carrot apple spinach etc . against fighting and killing cancer.
