BRAIN Damaging Habits:
1. No Breakfast
People who do not take breakfast are going to have a lower blood sugar level. This leads to an insufficient supply of nutrients to the brain causing brain degeneration.
2 . Overeating
It causes hardening of the brain arteries, leading to a decrease in mental power.
3. Smoking
It causes multiple brain shrinkage and may lead to Alzheimer disease.
4. High Sugar Consumption
Too much sugar will interrupt the absorption of proteins and nutrients causing malnutrition and may interfere with brain development.
5. Air Pollution
The brain is the largest oxygen consumer in our 20 body. Inhaling polluted air decreases the supply of oxygen to the brain, bringing about a decrease in brain efficiency.
6 . Sleep Deprivation
Sleep allows our brain to rest... Long term deprivation from sleep will accelerate the death of brain cells...
7. Head covered while sleeping
Sleeping with the head covered increases the concentration of carbon dioxide and decrease concentration of oxygen that may lead to brain damaging effects.
8. Working your brain during illness
Working hard or studying with sickness may lead to a decrease in effectiveness of the brain as well as damage the brain.
9. Lacking in stimulating thoughts
Thinking is the best way to train our brain, lacking in brain stimulation thoughts may cause brain shrinkage.
10. Talking Rarely
Intellectual conversations will promote the efficiency of the brain
The main causes of LIVER damage are:
1. Sleeping too late and waking up too late are main cause.
2. Not urinating in the morning.
3 . Too much eating.
4. Skipping breakfast.
5. Consuming too much medication.
6. Consuming too much preservatives, additives, food coloring, and artificial
sweetener.
7. Consuming unhealthy cooking oil.
As much as possible reduce cooking oil use when frying, which includes even the best cooking oils like olive oil. Do not consume fried foods when you are tired, except if the body is very fit.
8. Consuming raw (overly done) foods also add to the burden of liver.
Veggies should be eaten raw or cooked 3-5 parts. Fried veggies should be finished in one sitting, do not store.
We should prevent this without necessarily spending more. We just have to adopt a good daily lifestyle and eating habits. Maintaining good eating habits and time condition are very important for our bodies to absorb and get rid of unnecessary chemicals according to 'schedule.'
The top five CANCER-causing foods are:
1.. Hot Dogs
Because they are high in nitrates, the Cancer Prevention Coalition advises that children eat no more than 12 hot dogs a month. If you can't live without hot dogs, buy those made without sodium nitrate.
2.. Processed meats and Bacon
Also high in the same sodium nitrates found in hot dogs, bacon, and other processed meats raise the risk of heart disease. The saturated fat in bacon also contributes to cancer.
3.. Doughnuts
Doughnuts are cancer-causing double trouble. First, they are made with white flour, sugar, and hydrogenated oils, then fried at high temperatures. Doughnuts, says Adams , may be the worst food you can possibly eat to raise your risk of cancer.
4. French fries
Like doughnuts, French fries are made with hydrogenated oils and then fried at high temperatures. They also contain cancer- causing acryl amides which occur during the frying process. They should be called cancer fries, not French fries, said Adams .
5. Chips, crackers, and cookies
All are usually made with white flour and sugar. Even the ones whose labels claim to be free of trans-fats generally contain small amounts of trans-fats.
10 foods that you need to improve your brain functions:
1. Fish
Our brain needs Omega-3 fatty acids. These fats help the cells in our central nervous system lubricated to function properly. In addition, Omega-3 reduces inflammation or swelling in the brain which is a key factor in brain disease. Fatty fish such as salmon, herring, and sardines are good sources of Omega-3.
2. Wholegrain foods
Forgetfulness and memory loss can be controlled if you eat lots of whole grain food. Cereals, whole wheat pasta, wheat bran, and wheat germ and other wholegrain foods contain vitamin B6, vitamin B12, and folic acid. These are essential vitamins that improve memory functions.
3. Tomatoes
Eating tomatoes protects your brain cells against damaging free radicals. Tomatoes contain a powerful anti-oxidant called lycopene. This acts as a layer of protection and can also prevent dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.
4. Dark Leafy Green Vegetables
Another good source of folic acids are vegetables such as spinach, bok choy, collard, kale, and mustard greens are just some examples. Folic acid is responsible in preventing dementia and cognitive decline. It also helps avoid Alzheimer’s disease.
5. Eggs
Who says eggs are not healthy? Our brain needs choline for proper development and better memory functions – it can be found in eggs.
Aside from choline, proteins and other essential minerals that help our brain function properly are all in that oval thing.
6. Berries
Would it make you berry happy if you knew that your favorite berries can improve short term memory? Smile because they do. Aside for improving short-term memory, berries are good sources of anti-oxidants which protect brain cells from free radicals and lessen the occurrence of brain disease.
7. Broccoli
vitamik K (K1-phytomenadione, K2-menaquinone) is said to improve brain cells and prevent Alzheimer’s disease. Broccoli contains enough vitamik K needed to better the condition of your brain and avoid brain diseases. Aside from that, beef with broccoli tastes good too.
8. Pumpkin Seeds
Did you know that pumpkin seeds are rich in Zinc? This mineral is known to enhance memory and thinking skills. A handful of pumpkin seeds provide the recommended daily zinc allowance.
9. Nuts
Going nuts is not too bad at all if you’ll just eat them. Nuts are known to develop memory because they are rich in vitamin E.
10. Dark Chocolate
This high blood pressure maintenance is also good for the brain if taken in moderation. Dark chocolate’s caffeine content helps improve focus and concentration which can make you more productive.
Unbelievable but true!
1. A South American artist creates underwater artwork.
Jason deCaires Taylor created cement sculptures that also function as artificial coral reefs deep below the Malaysia ocean.
2. There is a town named “Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch"
This is a town on the island of Anglesey in Wales. It is the longest name of a place in Europe and one of the longest place names in the world. Of course, if you need to, you can shorten it toLlanfairpwllgwyngyll or even Llanfair PG.
3. A "Stone Forest" in Madagascar.
Tsingy de Bemaraha National Park in Madagascar contains a gigantic limestone formation (called the tsingy) which is like nothing you have ever seen. This unique topography has protected its animals from human interference over the centuries, and even now previously unknown species are being discovered within the tsingy!
4. Facebook’s oldest user is 103...and she updates from an iPad.
Great-grandmother Lillian Lowe has taken the title of oldest Facebooker from 104-year-old Ivy Bean, who died in her sleep this past July. Lillian checks her wall about twice a week and is friends with 34 different people, including 7 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren! Born in 1907, Lillian has seen all kinds of changes during her lifetime - the sinking of the Titanic, two World Wars, the first computer, and now the advent of social networking and tablet computers!
5. “Mrs.” is actually an abbreviation for the word “mistress.”
“Mistress” is the feminine form of “mister,” which originally meant “master.” Over the years people garbled the name for the married female, and the word “mistress” took on the meaning of an illicit lover, something far different than its original connotation. Therefore, married women ceased to spell out the full word, leaving “Mrs.” as the far more respectable abbreviation!
6. Some people suffer from a condition called “exploding head syndrome.”
This strange phenomenon is extremely rare and has not been proven to be related to any known medical disorder. Individuals simply hear an extremely loud noise inside their head while they are sleeping! The sufferer senses that a loud noise or explosion has occurred nearby but realizes that it was just in their own head. This condition is not dangerous or painful, but can cause an aversion to sleep resulting in insomnia. Researchers believe the syndrome is likely caused by extreme stress or exhaustion.
7. A Chinese man has a horn growing out of his head!
Huang Yuanfan has a three-inch-long horn growing on the top of his had. It’s been growing for 2 years, and nothing that he does to keep it under control has helped. He’s tried picking at it and filing it (ouch) but it keeps growing. According to his doctors, it will just grow back if they remove. They also don’t know why it’s growing there in the first place.
8. The chicken is the T-Rex’s closest living relative!
That’s right. Analysis of a 68 million year old T-Rex protein confirms that the dinosaur is closely related to birds. In fact, it has a more recent ancestor to birds than it does to alligators, which suggests that it’s more related to birds than reptiles. The two birds that T-Rex is particularly closely related to is the ostrich and the chicken!
9. The longest chapter in the Bible is Psalm 119. The shortest is Psalm 117. The middle of the bible can be found in Psalm 118.
There are actually a number of unusual coincidences surrounding Psalm 118. For instance, there are 1189 chapters in the Bible. That means that the middle chapter is the 595th chapter, Psalm 117.
What about the middle verse? According to Snopes, there are 31,174 verses in the Bible. Therefore, the middle verses are the 15,587th and 15,588th. Interestingly enough, those verses are verses 8 and 9 in Psalm 118. Also, the notation for verse 9 in Psalm 118 is Psalms 118:9, which is the same number as the total number of chapters in the Bible, 1189.
