ANIMAL FAT EXTRACT IS USED IN VANASPATI

Refined oil being sold in market after lacing it with animal fat extracts

Consumers who use hydro-generated refined vegetable oil (Vanaspati) sometimes fail to realise that manufacturers adulterate the product by lacing it with a content extracted from animal fat and cotton seed oil.

The use of such adulterated oils may lead to intestine-related problems. Cholesterol levels are also likely to go up if the oil is used on a regular basis.

The irregularities came to light when oil samples were collected from Vijayawada by officials of the State Food Laboratory (SFL) a few months ago.

Officials said that the samples failed to meet the stringent quality specifications prescribed under the Food Safety and Standards Act 2011.

Profitable business

The SFL Assistant Director S. Subba Lakshmi Devi said adulteration of edible oil using cheaper oil or cottonseed oil was a profitable business for unscrupulous players. "

The higher the price of the premium oil, greater is the propensity to adulterate it with low-cost oil, besides argemone oil," she added..

Majority of cow ghee sachets sold in shops and supermarkets are also adulterated by blending it with palm oil, it has been found.

Adulteration

Tartrazine colour is used to make cow ghee look original, said an official. Police arrested a businessman for allegedly preparing and selling adulterated ghee of various brands by mixing it with palm oil in Hyderabad last year, the official added.

As many as 25 cartons of adulterated ghee were seized from the accused, Sachin Agarwal.

His modus operandi was to procure original ghee sachets from market , carefully open it from the top and mix a third of the original ghee with two-third of palm oil and dalda and refill it in one-litre empty pack of genuine ghee before sealing it with a punching machine.

He would purchase empty packets of two other brands and refill them with adulterated ghee.

Consumers can also approach laboratory officials if they have any doubt about the product, the official said.

[www.keralites.net] 11 MISTAKES YOU MAKE THAT AGE YOU

11 Mistakes You Make that Age You

Aging gracefully comes easier to some, while not so easy to others. Sometimes it's a factor of just having good genes, but often they are the decisions we make during our lifetime that determine how fast we'll appear to age. You may not realize it, but most people commit mistakes every single day that make them age faster than they should, harming their skin and quickening the appearance of old age.

Here 11 mistakes we all make that age us.

1. You try to do too many things at once (Multitasking)
If your to-do list is longer than your arm and you are dealing with the stress of juggling many projects or tasks at once, you're doing yourself a disservice, says Raymond Casciari, Chief Medical Officer at St. Joseph Hospital. Several studies have shown that day-to-day stress triggers the release of free radicals in the body, which damage cells and quicken the ageing process. The good doctor suggests focusing on one task at a time.

2. You rarely pass on dessert.
Other than being an obviously unhealthy habit, having a sweet tooth may be adding years to your face, as sugar molecules attach themselves to protein fibers in our cells, a process known as glycation. This can lead to an ashen look, dark circles around the eyes, a loss of facial contours, wrinkles, puffiness and bigger pores. So if you want to hold on to that youthful glow, don't over-do the sugar.

3. You get less than 5-6 hours of sleep a night.
Not getting enough sleep doesn't only give you black bags under your eyes, but has been linked, through several studies, to a shorter life span. According to Dr. Casciari, the founder of a sleep lab at St. Joseph Hospital, getting about 7 hours of sleep is optimal. So if you find yourself nodding off, low on energy or finding it hard to focus, you're probably not sleeping enough, and it may age you faster than you'd like.

4. You spend most of your day sitting.
Sitting and leading a sedentary lifestyle are some of the worst problems for aging people in the modern world. Most people do very little physical activity, and the result is an increased risk of kidney disease, cardiovascular disease, cancer and of course obesity.

Studies show that people who exercised 150 minutes a week or more lived 10-13 years longer on average.

5. You don't use any eye creams.
The skin around your eyes is thinner than the rest of your face, and that is why it usually starts showing signs of aging sooner. Keeping the eye area moisturised can take years off your face. The best creams contain Retin A, which is a form of vitamin A. But you can also add antioxidants, hyaluronic acid and vitamin C.

6. You only use sunscreen when on vacation.
If you only use sunblock at the beach, you may actually be doing more harm to your skin while running errands and driving than a whole day spent on that beach. Skin damage accumulates, and the sun's rays are the #1 reason for ageing skin. Dr Taylor, associate professor of dermatology, recommends that you use an SPF between 30-50 for daily protection.

7. You wear too much makeup.
This is not a judgement, just a fact. Many make-up products are oil based, and can clog your pores and cause outbreaks. Overusing skin products with fragrances, alcohol agents and chemicals that irritate may cause premature lines and wrinkles.

8. You sleep with your face against the pillow.
Sleeping on your stomach of side with your face mashed into the pillow may create wrinkles and make your aging process look like it's going faster. Our facial skin gets less flexible with time, and so as we lay on the pillow night after night, our skin may not spring back and smooth the lines you had, and so the pillow can leave permanent marks on our face. So sleep on your back or invest in a satin pillowcase that'll keep your skin smooth.

9. You keep your house very warm.
When you turn up the thermostat or light a fireplace because it's cold, it's tempting to making it hot and toasty inside. But the problem is that the thermostat, and also the fireplace, suck moisture out of the air in the house, which leads to dry skin. If this goes on, as indeed in cold climates it may, it will lead to damaged skin with ageing effects.

So invest in a humidifier, and set to 40-60% humidity. This will free your skin from the itching, scratching and even flaking that comes with dry air.

Another way to go is placing a wet towel over a radiator or a bowl of cold water in the room.

10. You purse your lips
Drinking your beverages through a straw can help you avoid staining your teeth, but just like squinting can give you wrinkles around the eyes, so can pursing your lips give you wrinkles around the mouth.

By the way, this also often happens when you smoke a cigarette.

11. You've stopped eating fat altogether.
Some amounts of fat are required to maintaining a youthful appearance and feeling, according to Franci Cohen, nutritionist and exercise physiologist from Brooklyn, NY. Heart healthy omega 3 fatty acids, which you can find in oily fish such as mackerel or salmon, as well as nuts like walnuts and flax seeds, will keep your skin plump and supple. This will prevent wrinkles while also boosting the health of both your brain and heart.

11 Remedies for Children's Winter Ailments

Winter is here, bringing with it congested noses, sore throats, fevers, inflammations and, of course – the flu. Modern medicine offers a variety of cures for each disease, but I believe that it's worth trying good old home remedies before you start pumping your kids full of drugs. This article will teach you 11 classic home remedies that have proven their efficacy for many generations.

11 Home Remedies for Winter Ailments in Children

SCA Svenska

1. Decongesting

The most common winter issue for children and adults is a congested nose. Luckily, it can be treated naturally, quickly and effectively:

Boil 3-4 sage leaves in a deep bowl and add 2-3 drops of eucalyptus oil
Bend over the bowl and cover your head with a towel
Inhale deeply and your nose will be back to normal in no time

Dennis Hill

2. Phlegm

Phlegm tends to travel down our throats and make it hard to breath, prompting bouts of coughing. The solution is a very old, but highly effective one:

Draw a hot bath and add a few drops of sage, thyme, eucalyptus and mint oil
Lay in the bath, making sure your chest is submerged
You may also want to rub your chest with a mixture of warm olive oil, eucalyptus, sage and thyme oils

3. Sore throat

A sore throat is a sign that harmful bacteria are starting to colonize it. The remedy for it is as simple as it is effective:

Pour boiling water into a cup and add half a teaspoon of salt – allow to cool
Gargle the salt-water for about 30 seconds to reduce the soreness significantly

4. Coughing

Phlegm and bacteria cause irritation in the throat, causing us to cough all the time. The following remedy lubricates the throat, easing he cough.

Mix dry basil, powdered ginger and a teaspoon of honey in a cup
Fill the cup with boiling water, stir well and allow the boiling water to brew the mixture for 5 minutes
Drink the infusion 3 times a day to ease the cough

Domiriel

5. Dry cough

A dry cough is one that is not related to phlegm or other obstructing fluids in the respiratory system. This type of cough may indicate other ailments.

Add a teaspoon of honey and a cinnamon stick to a cup of boiling water
Let the water cool down for 5 minutes, allowing the heat to draw out the essence of the cinnamon
Drink the infusion to calm the dry cough

6. Flu

Every year, winter brings with it an epidemic of the flu. I feel that the best treatment for the flu is the historically proven remedy:

Boil a cup of milk with 4 dehydrated figs
Blend the figgy milk to a smooth consistency and drink on one gulp
Repeat daily and don't forget to eat natural chicken soup

7. Fever reduction

As you become ill, your body tends to raise its core temperature in-order to slow down the disease, but the fever often does more harm than good.

Boil a cup of water and add finely chopped fresh cilantro
Filter and chill the water
Soak a gauze in the cilantro-water and put on various parts of the body, for 2-3 minutes in each place
Repeat as much as needed

Henrique Pinto

8. Throat inflammation

Similarly to a fever, an inflammation is one of the body's defense mechanisms against various contaminants. To treat it, try this old remedy:

Boil a tablespoon of fresh biblical hyssop and basil for 5 minutes
Allow the infusion to cool, then strain it and drink in small sips
Try to slow down the swallowing process, to allow it more contact with the inflamed throat

Wikipedia.org

9. Ear infections

Ear infections are quite common in wintertime, and is considered to be one of the most painful ailments there is, and in particular for children experiencing it for the first time.

Crush a clove of garlic, mix with a little olive oil
Let the mixture sit for 3 hours to allow the active ingredients in the garlic to seep into the oil
Dip a cotton swab in the mixture and gently insert into the ear to ease the pain

10. Sinus infection

A sinus infection is an infection of the sinuses, which are cavities in the skull. It usually is the result of an untreated previous infection.

Drip 2 drops of sesame oil in each nostril, repeat twice a day
Mix a tablespoon of sugar with a tablespoon of lemon extract until you receive a gel-like concoction
Apply the concoction around the sinuses (above the eyes, on the sides of the nose and cheekbones)

11. Bronchitis

Bronchitis is an inflammation of the mucus membranes of the bronchi (the tubes that regulate airflow into your lungs.

Mix powdered mustard with salt and water until you have a consistent paste
Before going to bed, apply a small amount of olive oil on the chest and add the paste over it
Wrap your chest with a cloth and leave it on for the night
You may also want to grate some fresh horseradish and have a teaspoon of it twice a day.
