9 Mosquito-Repelling Plants You Can Grow at Home

Mosquitoes are a serious nuisance; from that terrible buzz near your ear when you're trying to sleep, to the itchy, swollen bumps they leave after biting you. If you didn't know, it's only the females of the species who bite us. Male mosquitoes prefer to feed on nectar, generally avoiding humans.

Mosquitoes can also be a health risk – they can transmit diseases through their bite (including Malaria, Yellow Fever, West-Nile Fever, and more). In fact, mosquitoes are responsible for more human deaths than all the wars in our history combined.

You can buy gadgets and products that repel these nasty bugs, but they're all temporary and can be irritating or dangerous. Instead, you can grow certain plants that repel mosquitoes naturally:

Lemon Verbena: This lovely plant has a light citrus scent and can be added to tea for both its flavor and its calming effect on the digestive system. You can plant it in the ground or in a deep pot and let it scare away those nasty bugs. Make sure it has a good supply of water and sunlight.

Cloves: Cloves are the flower buds of the Syzygium aromaticum plant. You can plant it around the yard to enjoy its mosquito-repelling properties, as well as use the cloves to spice up food.

Mint: Most common as an added flavor for tea, mint also has powerful mosquito-repelling properties. All species of mint are useful repellents. Mint needs sunlight and plenty of water to grow. You can plant it in your garden or in pots. If you choose to grow it in your garden, be aware that it tends to spread, and can sometimes take over and kill weaker plants.

Rosemary: A favorite herb for savory dishes, which is also a potent repellent. Plant it in your garden or in deep planters and let this lovely bush grow and take care of your mosquito problem.

Lemon Thyme: A natural mosquito repellent, lemon thyme is also a great herb for seasoning dishes. Plant it in pots to get lovely little plants around the house, or in your garden to control the mosquito population.

Lavender: The scent of lavender is often a favorite for many people, and it's commonly used in aromatherapy for its soothing properties. For mosquitoes, however, it's a very strong repellent. Plant them in your garden or in pots in your house and enjoy the pleasant scent of the beautiful purple flowers.

Floss Flower: These lovely tiny flowers are superb at repelling mosquitoes. Make sure you only grow them in a pot, as they tend to overgrow in the soil and take over the entire garden. Make sure they're out of reach of children and animals, as they can be toxic.

Pitcher Plant: These carnivorous plants grow natural pitchers, filled with scented nectar to lure bugs in. Once the bugs get inside the pitcher, they can't get out again and are digested by the plant. Plant them in planters on your window sill and enjoy their mosquito-capturing properties.

Cadaga Tree: (AKA "Cadagi", or eucalyptus torelliana) - These beautiful trees are natural barriers for mosquitoes, who hate their scent. Plant a few of these in your garden and let nature free you of those pesky biters.

[www.keralites.net] How To Treat Migraine............

Subject: How To Treat Migraine............

About two thirds of migraine sufferers cannot function at a normal level when they get a migraine attack. You should see a doctor if your headaches interfere with work or family life, if headaches are getting worse, or if you take medication on a daily basis for headache.

Below are 10 simple solutions to ease your migraine pain, but are not intended as substitutes for the advice of a doctor.

1
Get a good night's sleep. Changes in sleep patterns, changing shifts, and jet lag can trigger migraines. Try to maintain a regular schedule and get up and go to bed at the same time every s

2
Lie down, put an ice pack wrapped in a towel or a cold compress on your throbbing head to soothe swollen, pulsing blood vessels until the pain subsides.

3
If you don't want to put a cold compress on your head to relieve the pain, soak one or both of your hands in ice water for as long as you can tolerate it. While your hands are in the water, ball them into fists and open and close them repeatedly. It can have the same effect as a compress on your heart

4
Keep the room dark. Light sometimes aggravates migraine symptoms, lie down in a dark room.

Do not skip meals. Skipping meals can trigger a migraine attack. If you can, eat smaller meals throughout the day or be sure to eat three meals.

6
Take note of what you eat. Certain foods triggers a migraine attack in about ten percent of migraine sufferers. It can take from 30 minutes to 12 hours for a food to cause a reaction. If you get a migraine, think back to what you ate in that time frame and try eliminating some of those foods from your diet.

7
Take riboflavin. Studies have shown that taking 400 milligrams a day of riboflavin can help eliminate migraines.

8
Spice it up. The hot ingredient in red pepper, capsaicin, is a terrific painkiller and may help those who have migraines feel better during an attack. You do not need to include red pepper in all your meals. You can buy cayenne pepper capsules in health food stores.

9
Try not to sleep late on weekends. Though it might seem like a reward to relax and sleep in, giving yourself that letdown after stress is a common trigger. Waking up late can also trigger a migraine by changing your normal sleep pattern and may cause you to miss breakfast which also triggers a migraine. If you really must sleep late on the weekends, try sleeping with a tiny bit of your window open to let air in.

10
If you're prone to vomiting during migraines, keep a can of Campbell's Chicken Broth upside down in your refrigerator. Really. After you're finished in the bathroom, take out the can, turn it right-side up, open, pour out the broth (leave the fat stuck to the top), and drink it once you're able. Replaces needed electrolytes, etc., helps relieve the weakness and general malaise. Don't know why Campbell's works better than any other brand, but it does.

11
Sometimes a bath helps. Take a bath in your bathroom with the lights off. Soak yourself face down (don't forget to come up for air) and just try and relax your body.

12
In some cases, low levels of the hormone progesterone appear to increase the frequency and severity of migraines. If you are a woman, and your migraines occur more often in the 2 weeks before menses, be suspicious and ask your doctor to check your progesterone levels (note: many doctors are unaware of this link, but if your levels are found to be low, they may be willing to prescribe supplementation). 14
Use acupressure to momentarily relieve pain; tap three times on your temple, your shoulder and then the inside of your wrist. Repeat.

[www.keralites.net] : Malaysia's top nutritionist on eggs

Whatsapp Group+91 98450 81888

Hands that serve are Holier than Lips that Pray

Malaysia's top nutritionist on eggs

Half boiled is my favourite and have been taking for many years

Does anyone knows what is the best way of eating eggs.

Hard boil? Half Boil? Raw? or Raw with Honey? Raw with Brandy?, etc

Malaysia's top nutritionist on eggs

Very Important, EGG is good for cancer too.
Dr JB Lim is the current TOP Nutritionist in Malaysia

1. Eggs and milk are among the best foods for the body especially to a growing child.

2. Eggs do not cause an elevation of blood cholesterol

3. Eggs do not clog up the coronary vessels as once thought. In fact the opposite is now true

4. Eggs are low in energy value, and is a factor to consider in the formulation of a caloric-restriction diet

5. Eggs protein quality is extremely high, and has a very high nitrogen-retention value. Hence it is extremely useful in post-surgical care, trauma, and in post-management of hypovolemic shock against negative nitrogen balance

6. Eggs contain vitamin D in its natural form. The benefits of vitamin D require several chapters on human nutrition in medicine to discuss. And I refuse to repeat

7. Eggs are cancer-protective, especially for breast cancer

8. Eggs are very rich in sulfur-containing amino acids methionine which is a very crucial amino-acid in blocking damaging free radicals. These are directly linked to the pathogenesis of heart disease, cancers, DNA damage, all degenerative disorders, and accelerated aging.

9. Eggs protect against fatty liver, slow growth, macular degeneration (degeneration of the macula area of the retina in the eyes. This is responsible for central vision for reading, face recognition and detailed vision), edema (water retention), and various skin lesions

10. Eggs promote healthy growth of nails, hair and skin

11. Eggs are rich in tryphophan, selenium, iodine, and riboflavin (vitamin B2)

12. Eggs selenium content is cardio-protective against Keshan disease, cardiomyopathies (diseases involving the heart muscles, cardiomegaly (enlarged heart), myocardial dysfunction (poor heart function) and death from heart failure.

13. Eggs are protective against Kashin-Beck disease (osteoarthropathy), myxedematous endemic cretinism (mental retardation)

10 Health Benefits of Eggs

1. Eggs are great for the eyes. According to one study, an egg a day may prevent mascular degeneraton due to the carotenoid content, specifically lutein and zeaxanthin. Both nutrients are more readily available to our bodies from eggs than from other sources.

2. In another study, researchers found that people who eat eggs every day lower their risk of developing cataracts, also because of the lutein and zeaxanthin in eggs.

3. One egg contains 6 grams of high-quality protein and all 9 essential amino acids.

4. According to a study by the Harvard School of Public Health, there is no significant link between egg consumption and heart disease. In fact, according to one study, regular consumption of eggs may help prevent blood clots, stroke, and heart attacks.

5. They are a good source of choline. One egg yolk has about 300 micrograms of choline. Choline is an important nutrient that helps regulate the brain, nervous system, and cardiovascular system.

6. They contain the right kind of fat. One egg contains just 5 grams of fat and only 1.5 grams of that is saturated fat.

7. New research shows that, contrary to previous belief, moderate consumption of eggs does not have a negative impact on cholesterol. In fact, recent studies have shown that regular consumption of two eggs per day does not affect a person's lipid profile and may, in fact, improve it. Research suggests that it is saturated fat that raises cholesterol rather than dietary cholesterol.

8. Eggs are one of the only foods that contain naturally occurring vitamin D.

9. Eggs may prevent breast cancer. In one study, women who consumed at least 6 eggs per week lowered their risk of breast cancer by 44%.

10. Eggs promote healthy hair and nails because of their high sulphur content and wide array of vitamins and minerals. Many people find their hair growing faster after adding eggs to their diet, especially if they were previously deficient in foods containing sulphur or B12.
