Save Yourelf From Osteoporosis

noreply@blogger.com (Nicole) — Sat, 17 Jul 2010 03:37:00 +0000

What is OSTEOPOROSIS?

The simplest definition would be the loss of our bones strength. Mainly because the decrease of calcium.

Who are mostly affected?

Mostly affected are women more than 45 years old.

These has something to do with the hormones present in women- ESTROGEN- which helps prevent us from osteoporosis. As women reach their menopausal age, a decrease in estrogen levels occurs which makes them prone to cancer

THE EASIEST WAY TO PREVENT OSTEOPOROSIS

1. NEVER STOP DRINKING MILK!

MILK is reach in calcium.

Our bones are like banks, the more money you save, then the more longer it would took you to lose money. Same as our bones, until age 25 our bones has the capability to store a lot of milk.Thus it is best to drink a lot of milk before 25 years old and as well as after 25 years old. After this age its ability decreases as we grow older and also decreases in the level of calcium begins.

So the more calcium you save as you grow older the more less you would be prone to osteoporosis.

Romeo X Juliet - You Raise Me Up

noreply@blogger.com (Nicole) — Mon, 22 Mar 2010 23:48:00 +0000

Please listen ..
Its really wonderful..

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary
When troubles come and my heart burdened be
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence
Until you come and sit awhile with me

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up, to more than I can be

There is no life - no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up, to more than I can be

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up, to more than I can be

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders
You raise me up, to more than I can be

You raise me up, to more than I can be

Grilled Meat Increases Risk of Cancer

noreply@blogger.com (Nicole) — Wed, 13 Jan 2010 11:30:00 +0000

The Department of Health and Human Services has added heterocyclic amines to its list of carcinogens. These compounds are formed in red meat, poultry, and fish during grilling. Research conducted by the National Cancer Institute found that the odds of developing colorectal cancer was highly linked to the consumption of red meat, especially when grilled or well done. An outcome of this study indicates that these chemicals are primarily found in meat cooked at high temperature or exposed to flames.

A positive note is that marinating can have a protective effect on meat

Smoking Kills Your Brain

noreply@blogger.com (Nicole) — Fri, 18 Dec 2009 09:53:00 +0000

1 stick of cigarette kills 4 neurons of your brain.

Neurons are the cells in your brain that are responsible for its vital function. Neurons don't regenerate. Meaning they don't grow back. So QUIT SMOKING.

TIPS HOW TO QUIT SMOKING
1. If you're determined enough to quit, then that's all you need. Your WILL.
2. If you can't quit at once then try it gradually. How? If you finish 6 sticks a day, try decreasing 1 stick at least 2-3 times a day and replace the missing ones with candy or gum. Whenever you feel the urge to smoke always remember to bring a candy or gum in your pocket and forget to bring those cigarettes.

Love Your Earthworms

noreply@blogger.com (Nicole) — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 10:42:00 +0000

My dad shared to us this business hes been planning to put up, its called vermicullture. Its amazing because you use earthworms to do the job. How? Its quite easy. But first do you guys know what vermiculture is? According to my dad you grow earthworms and use their poop as fertilizers. You can even sell them if you like.

Its said that in 1 square meter you can put 1 kilo of earthworms.

Steps:

1. Of course first you should have a bin or container which is 1 square meter most preferably wood and some soil. Don't forget to put some holes on the bin for excess fluids to drain.

2. Place the worms (african nightcrawlers- earthworm species).

3. Add the biodegradable garbage such as leaves.

4. Just wait for the earthworms to decompose them and wait for their poop.

5. Presto!collect their poop and make them into fertilizers for your plants or sell them.

Think of it. You're saving mother nature and earning money the same time. For more info you can try to visit wikipedia.com
