10 Foods that Look And Help Body Parts!

You are what you eat, but as it turns out, there is a larger similarity between the human body and food than we initially thought. We found 10 foods that look a lot like the body part they actually help. A coincidence? Maybe, but it doesn't take away from this handy advice!

Carrot - Eyes

If you slice a carrot, you will easily identify the similarities between this vegetable and the eye. Indeed, the carrot is wonderful for the eyes; it's rich in vitamins and antioxidants such as beta carotene, which diminish the risk of ocular degeneration, the number one reason for loss of sight among adults.

Walnut - Brain

The folds, wrinkles and shape of the walnut are reminiscent of that of the brain, and it's little wonder that walnuts are called: "Brain food". Walnuts are full of linoleic alpha acid, an Omega 3 fatty acid, which is essential to the biological process of the body. The amino acid plays an important role in building brain cells and keeping them functioning properly.

Celery - Bones

The long and thin stems of the celery not only look like bones, they help them too. Celery is an excellent source of silicon, which is part of the molecular structure that gives bones their enormous strength. An interesting coincidence is that bones contain 23% sodium, and so does celery.

Avocado - Womb

It looks like a womb and it is great for fertility. The avocado is a great source of folic acid, which has been found to reduce the risk of displacement of the cervix. Also, folic acid is recommended for pregnant women or women planning to become pregnant, as it helps in the prevention of birth defects.

Oysters - Testicles

Research shows that oysters are very beneficial for male sexual organs. Research conducted in Holland found that a diet rich in oysters contains a lot of zinc and folic acid, which vastly improves the quality of the sperm.

Grapefruit- Breast

The similarity between citric fruits and the female breast might be a coincidence, but it is backed by clear health advantages. The peel of the grapefruit contains a petrochemical called Limonoid, and research done on lab animals and human cells has proven that it helps to delay the reproduction of cancer cells, especially breast cancer.

Tomato - Heart

If you slice a tomato in half, you'll notice a variety of cells that remind us of the structure of the heart. Research has found that the Lycopene in tomatoes serves as an antioxidant and protects the cellular structures and DNA from free radicals that damage healthy cells, which may contribute to cancer growth. Also, Lycopene reduces cholesterol levels, which may cause heart damage, and also heart disease. Furthermore, adding a little unsaturated fat to tomatoes (such as olive oil or avocado oil), will allow your body to better absorb the Lycopene.

Red Wine - Blood

Red wine is rich in antioxidants and polyphenols, including a material called Resveratrol which contains a wealth of health benefits. The resveratrol protects from damaging factors in the blood, including bad cholesterol (LDL). It also lowers the risk of blood clots and prevents the contraction of the blood vessels, which allows for a better blood flow.

Ginger - Stomach

Anyone who's suffered a stomach ache and drank tea with ginger has already felt the influence of this spice, so it only makes sense that it resembles the digestive system. Ginger is known to fight stomach cramps, reduce vomiting and nausea, help with gassy digestions and strengthen the mucus layer in the stomach.

Sweet potato - Pancreas foods that look like bodyparts

Another food that resembles the organ it helps. The sweet potato is rich in beta carotene, a powerful antioxidant that defends all the tissues in the body, including the pancreas, from damages related to old age or cancer.

[www.keralites.net] How to Avoid Getting Sick During Cold and Flu Season

How to Avoid Getting Sick During Cold and Flu Season

For most people, getting a cold or flu during the colder months is a yearly occurrence. Many viruses, including those responsible for causing the flu, love cold, dry weather and therefore multiply quickly during winter.

These viruses are also highly contagious, spreading from person to person via respiratory droplets. Contact can happen by direct bodily contact like kissing, or touching something that has been in contact with the virus, like shaking hands with someone and then touching your nose, eyes or mouth.

Preventing the Spread of Germs

Therefore, reducing the spread of germs is key to avoiding getting sick. Consider the following tips to prevent spreading viruses and other microbes.

Wash Your Hands

This is one of the best ways to stop the spread of many microbes you come across, not just the viruses that cause colds and flu; as many as 80% of infections spread by touch, according to the CDC.

Use soap and water and scrub thoroughly for at least 20 seconds. If water and soap are not available, use a hand sanitizer.

Certain things you touch carry more germs than others. A 2011 study featured in Life Science revealed the surfaces that have very high levels of contamination – enough to spread an illness. The number one spot is the gas pump handle, followed by mailbox handles, escalator rails, ATM buttons, parking meters and kiosks, crosswalk buttons and vending machine buttons. Other germ-ridden surfaces include cell phones and other electronic devices, public soap dispensers, airport bathrooms, tray counters, seat armrests and magazines.

Take extra care to wash your hands well after touching these things.

Disinfect

This doesn't mean that you have to wipe down everything you touch, but try to reduce the presence of microbes in your environment. Germs can live on a surface for hours, so if someone in your household is sick or if you take a trip to a new place, consider disinfecting areas like door knobs, remote controls or tabletops. You may also want to use disposable items such as cups or paper towels..

Cover Your Nose and Mouth

When you cough or sneeze, cover your nose and mouth – not with your hands, as you may have heard, but with the crook of your elbow. You can also use a tissue. This way the germs will not get on your hands and spread further.

Boosting Your Immune System

Preventing the spread of the germs is a good start, but likely not enough to avoid a cold or flu. It is impossible to live in a completely sterile environment, as we are exposed each and every day to various microorganisms. The reason why we don't get infections from all these germs is because our immune system fights them.

If we look at infections from this perspective, an infection is not truly caused by a germ, the germ is just a trigger. It is rather a weakness of the immune system that allows that germ to multiply and infect the body. Therefore, the next important step to prevent colds and flu is to keep the immune system strong and healthy.

Eat Well

A healthy, clean diet is more important than you might think. Vitamins, minerals and antioxidants found in healthy food are essential for the health of your immune system. Adopt a healthy diet all year around and include plenty of fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, beans, fish and lean meats, dairy products like yogurt and kefir, nuts and seeds and healthy oils for cooking.

Some foods are better than others when it comes to colds and flu prevention. Here are a few of them:

Fatty fish like salmon, tuna and mackerel, olive oil, and nuts and seeds contain high amounts of omega 3 fatty acids, which have strong anti-inflammatory qualities. These foods help prevent the chronic inflammation that can weaken the immune system, as well as reducing stress and anxiety, which can also predispose you to catching a cold.
Sesame and pumpkin seeds, turkey, lentils and quinoa are great sources of zinc. Zinc is a mineral with antioxidant qualities and has been found beneficial for limiting the progression and duration of colds.
Garlic can help fight colds, according to a 2001 study published in Advances in Therapy; people who took garlic supplements for 12 weeks during winter experienced fewer colds compared with the placebo group. The key ingredient of garlic is allicin, a strong antioxidant compound. You can choose to add more garlic to your diet, or take it in supplement form.
Yogurt and kefir contain good bacteria that promote a healthy digestive system and a strong immune system. A 2011 review study found that people who consumed probiotics, whether from foods or in supplement form – had a lower risk of infections of the respiratory tract than the placebo group.

Take Vitamin D

Diet can't provide enough vitamin D, as this nutrient is mainly made in your skin when exposed to sunlight. Unless you spend half an hour in the sun every day, you should take it in supplement form.

Some studies suggest that catching a cold or flu may be a symptom of an underlying deficiency of this nutrient, which is even more severe in the winter.. Studies also confirm that vitamin D plays a crucial role in the health of the immune system, as it influences nearly 3000 genes and promotes the production of hundreds of anti-microbial substances.

Exercise Regularly

It is well know that staying active can help boost the immune system and your overall health. But studies have also found a link between colds and exercise.. A 2010 study involving 1000 participants found that staying active and fit reduced the risk of catching a cold by almost 50%. Fit and active participants who did get colds had symptoms that were 30-40% less severe.
