fish-soup-ripples-nigeria.jpg

Migraine can be triggered by anything from fluctuating temperature, weather changes, stress, lack of sleep and even strong odours. But there are few foods that can actually help you to keep migraine at bay or just reduce the intensity of headaches.

1. Fish: Salmon and few other fishes are the rich source for Omega-3 fatty acids, which can actually help to reduce the intensity of migraines. According to the research done at the University of Cincinnati people who took omega-3 supplements showed a considerable fall in the intensity of migraines in few people who took omega-3 over the course of six weeks.

2. Coffee: Though coffee is known to trigger headaches in few people but the moment migraine strikes a few cups of coffee might help to relieve the pain. Caffeine helps to shrink the swollen blood vessels in the brain, even in a few migraine medicines, caffeine is the key ingredient.

3. Ginger: This warm spice contains compounds that are quite similar in the anti-inflammatory drugs. It may work against migraines by jamming inflammatory substances known as prostaglandins. Ginger hasn’t been scientifically proved to relieve headache, but even if it doesn’t stop your migraine, it can at least help you relieve the nausea that often comes with it.

4. Flaxseeds: F ew headaches are caused by inflammation, which can be reduced by taking omega-3 fatty acids. And flax seeds are a rich source of it.

Amazing health benefits of onion juice

Onion-Juice1.jpg-ripples-ng-500x330.jpg

Onions are definitely not a vegetable you initially associate with juice. Don’t get me wrong, onions have always been one of my must-have toppings on salads and sandwiches but when I first heard of onion juice I cringed a little. Just imagine the bite you must feel in the back of your throat when swigging down a cold glass of onion juice! I was more than a bit sceptical. While extensive research has not yet been done on onion juice specifically, plenty of people claim onions have some amazing properties that are worth sharing with you.

Listed below are six amazing health benefits of onion juice.

1. Promotes Healthy Hair:As an aging female who has always struggled with fine, thin hair, I was happy to hear that onion juice just might reverse that trend. If you didn’t know, onion juice is a great source of sulphur. Luckily for us fine-haired women, sulphur is one of the main building blocks for our hair.

2. Improves Circulation:

As mentioned, the sulphur in onion juice helps improve your blood circulation. This not only helps your hair follicles, but also can improve your blood circulation in general.

3. Fights Bacteria and Fungus : There are several studies out there on the antibacterial properties of onion. According to Dr. Lee Falin, “a recent study found that when combined with garlic and lime extracts, onions can help inhibit the growth of certain strains of E. coli which are resistant to conventional antibiotics.”

4. Contains Powerful Antioxidants: Antioxidants are an incredibly important part of good health. They are the only things out there that fight the free radicals that attack the cells of our bodies.

5. Improves Digestion: Onions contain an impressive supply of inlulin. According to LiveStrong, “Inlulin is a beneficial food source for the healthy bacteria in your intestines.” Having good bacteria in your intestines can help encourage regular bowel movements.

6. Regulates Blood Sugar: If you are one of the millions of people who have trouble regulating your blood sugar due to diabetes, incorporating onions or onion juice into your diet may help.

4 amazing health benefits of Guava juice

According to Wikipedia, guava is a tropical fruit that is native to Mexico, Central America and the northern part of South America. They were later adopted as a crop in other regions such as the southern parts of America, Asia and tropical Africa.

Listed below are all the amazing benefits that guava and guava juice have to offer you.

Guava Is A Powerhouse Of Phytonutrients: Phytonutrients are natural compounds found in plants that provide immunity and protection for the plant, and for the human body. Phytonutrients aren’t essential for keeping you alive like vitamins and minerals are, but they may help prevent disease and keep your body functioning properly.

Guava Has Cancer-Fighting Properties: Guava contains an important carotenoid called lycopene. Lycopene is something that gives red fruits and vegetables, like tomatoes, their colour. Lycopene just so happens to also help fight off damaging molecules known as free radicals.

Guava helps Control Blood Sugar:

Guava and guava juice are low in sugar and high in fibre. What does this mean for regulating your blood sugar? It means eating guava will slowly; naturally and efficiently raise your sugar levels instead of providing that sudden spike that most unhealthy sugars will. Guava Maintains Eye Health: Guava is a great source of vitamin A. Vitamin A is involved in eyesight. According to NDTV, guava “can not only prevent degradation of eyesight, but even improve eyesight. It can help slow down the appearance of cataracts and macular degeneration.” Although they don’t have quite as much vitamin A as carrots do, they are still a decent source.

How to look 10 years younger

a.png

Can you take a minute to look at the mirror? Are you pleased with what you see? Do people keep asking you if you’re getting enough sleep? Do you get scared when your birthday approaches? If your answer is yes to it all then Botox and fillers are the solutions you need. I bet you must have heard about Botox and fillers but it is a bit odd that even in these modern times, there still seems to be some form of stigma attached to them. It’s been noticed that most of these stem from little or no knowledge about them. Aging as we all know is inevitable and although we need to embrace this beautiful natural process, we should not do so at the expense of our self-esteem. Do you know Botox and fillers can take up to 10 years off your look?! As we age, the natural collagen and elastin in the skin lessens, as cells lose their ability to produce more of their youthful component. The skin becomes dryer, thinner and less able to fix itself. At birth, we have a lot of hyaluronic acid in our body, but as we get older it diminishes, leaving the skin less well supported, and so lines and wrinkles develop. There are three different types of facial wrinkles which each largely determine the kind of treatment. - First, dynamic lines (or mimic lines) are caused by the movement of muscles. - The second group, static lines are visible when your face doesn’t move. - The last group, gravitational folds are usually deeper furrows resulting from a combination of loss of volume and gravitation e.g nasolabial folds running from your nose to the corners of your mouth. As we get older, our faces tend to lose fat. This loss of volume leads to an envelope of loose skin which gravitation pulls downwards hence the folds which look like sags. This is where the use of Botox and fillers come into place.

You should consider these injectable if you look older or more tired than you feel and wish to improve the appearance of: • Nasolabial folds (lines from the nose to the corners of the mouth) • Marionette lines (pronounced crease that run from the corners of the mouth down along the chin) • Sagging, flat cheeks • Hollows under the eyes • Creases and furrows on your forehead • Wrinkles around the eyes and lips Local anaesthesia is used to ensure your comfort during the treatment. Each injection takes only a few seconds, and the entire procedure lasts between 30-45 minutes in most cases. The results will begin to appear immediately however, improvements will continue as the days go by. Expect a natural, subtle look that would keep everyone guessing. No recovery time is necessary and you can return to your normal activities right away.

I Got My Life Back on Track thanks to SlimTea

1.jpg

Slimtea continues to effect lives in the most positive ways yet, Read a beautiful extract from a testimonial from a satisfied customer,

“I have always been a big girl and I love it. I guess it is in my genes because mum, dad, big bro and kid sis are all chubby. After a visit at the doctors, I realised my cholesterol level was high and had to maintain a healthier lifestyle. I needed to change my diet and workout routine; and gosh that sounded like a lot work but I did it anyway. This was a struggle, a very big one. I had long working hours and the traffic back home was always crazy, which made snacking an easier option for me.

Although this was working, it was not at the pace I wanted it to. I began to feel exhausted, discouraged and less likely to continue. I needed a solution that was also effective but less exhausting. As an ardent LIBer, browsing through her blog and enjoying juicy gossip, I came across a SlimTea ad. My first thought was, these Chinese people have come with all these their funny teas, but because I was somewhat desperate I decided to try it out; what different will it make anyway I thought.

To my utmost surprise, I became light-weight, I had so much energy during the day, I was pro-active at work and noticed a surprising loss of appetite and cravings for carbs. SlimTea works? Imagine the shock on the faces of my colleagues, when I screamed at work. You should already know that they all drink SlimTea, my entire family too.
