[www.keralites.net] THE MANY BENEFITS OF OLIVE LEAVES

 

The Many Benefits of Olive Leaves
 

The olive leaf has been a sign of peace and prosperity for many generations. In Genesis, a dove returns to Noah's arc with a fresh olive leaf in its mouth pronouncing the end of the flood. Today the olive branch has become a symbol of peace and even appears on the

 flag of the United Nations.

We have heard plenty of the health benefits of olive oil, but very little of the health benefits of olive leaves. Recent research shows that the extract made from olive leaves can cure and protect from various diseases and symptoms.

It all begins with Pythochemicals ("plant chemicals") whose main purpose is to protect the plant from parasites and maladies. By consuming the plants, our bodies absorb the paythochemicals that protect us from the same hazards. One of those pythochemicals is called Oleuropein, which can be found in olive leaves.

Here are 10 health benefits of olive leaves:

1. They help prevent or slow down the development of cancer:
Findings from a study conducted in 2010-2011 show that the active ingredient in olive leaves can slow down the development of cancer cells in women who suffer from breast cancer, as well as slow down the development of Melanoma in cells that were taken from mice.

2. They encourage bone formation
In a study conducted in Spain in 2011, researchers discovered that the Oleuropein found in olive oils encourages the production of osteroblasts - large cells responsible for the development of the bone - which prevent osteoporosis and a decrease in bone mass.

 3. They fight against bacterial and viral infections
Oleuropein is especially useful in fighting against micro-organisms such as viruses and bacteria. It transforms into elenolic acid in the body, which stops the reproduction of amino acids in viruses and bacteria, thus preventing them from replicating and spreading.

4. They prevent aging
 Free radicals can damage the skin by disrupting the process of DNA formation. Olive leaves are rich in phenols, antioxidants that neutralize free radicals and help revitalize our skin.

5. They reduce inflammation
Oleuropein's ability to fight against germs can cure infections and relieve inflammation.

6. The lower blood pressure
Researchers found that oleuropein can also improve blood circulation and prevent blood clotting. Olive leaves can also balance your blood sugar levels by improving the activity of liver insulin receptors.

 7. They Fight against cholesterol
Olive leaves are also known for their ability to stop the formation of LDL ("bad cholesterol") by preventing oxidation.

8. They Reinforce the immune system
The phytochemicals found in olive leaves support the activity of Vitamin C, which is essential to our immune system.

9. They cure infections
 As part of its antiviral activity, olive leaf extract can also cure viral infections such as herpes and influenza.

10. And the list goes on and on...
Since olive leaves have anti-viral, anti-inflammatory and anti-fungal properties, they can also help in cases of malaria, allergies, psoriasis, CFS (chronic fatigue syndrome) and more.

Convinced? Go to the nearest health nature shop and ask for olive leaf extract.

[www.keralites.net] 7 TOP REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD NOT IGNORE MENSTRUAL PAIN

 

7 Top Reasons Why You Should Not Ignore Menstrual Pain

Do you suffer from painful cramps during periods? No alarms! It's totally normal to have them.
But, if you suffer from extreme menstrual pain or severe pain that lasts longer than 2-3 days, then take heed. Painful periods may indicate certain underlying medical conditions.
Pain during menstrual cycle can be due to two major reasons – Primary Dysmenorrhea and Secondary Dysmenorrhea.
1. Primary Dysmenorrhea:
It occurs due to the excess of prostaglandin hormone in the uterus. It normally happens when a young girl starts menstruating. It is not related to any problems of the uterus.
 2. Secondary Dysmenorrhea:
It happens due to problems in the pelvic region or the uterus. It mostly happens to women who have experienced normal menstrual cycles earlier.
The problems related to the uterus or pelvic areas which cause pain are as follows:
Endometriosis:
Normally the walls of the uterus thicken and grow. Uterus sheds this lining with tissue and blood during your menstrual cycle. When these cells grow on other body parts of your body outside the uterus, it results in endometriosis. These cells may get attached to other body parts like ovaries, bladder, rectum, bowel and other parts as well.
 These growths outside the uterus do not get shed during menstrual cycles. When they come in contact with hormones from your uterus, they continue to grow and bleed as well. This tissue and blood accumulates in your body. It makes you experience pain and other symptoms like cramps a week before periods, lower back or belly pain etc. So, get yourself examined if you fall in the following group:
You have painful periods lasting a week or more.
Have genetic history in your family. For eg. Your mother has endometriosis.
You have not given birth.
 You have started menstruating at a young age.
Uterine fibroids:
These are tumors that are benign that grow in the uterus. They are quite common in women of child bearing age. It may occur due to hormonal changes or due to genetic factors.
These fibroids can be very tiny in size. They can also grow large enough to fill up the entire uterus. Look out for the following symptoms:
Painful periods and pelvic cramps
Pressure on lower tummy area
Longer than usual periods
Bleeding between two menstrual cycles
Pelvic Inflammatory Disease:
 Pelvic inflammatory disease happens due to a bacterial infection in the reproductive organs of women. This infection is usually transmitted sexually and occurs in the uterus, ovaries or fallopian tubes.
The bacterial infection can also occur due to child birth, miscarriage, abortion, endometrial biopsy or inserting an intra-uterine device in your body.
If you have pain during menstrual cycle that is more severe than usual, seek medical help. Severe pain can also be followed by other symptoms like fatigue, frequent and painful urination, nausea, loss of appetite and unusual bleeding.
Premenstrual Syndrome:
Premenstrual syndrome is popularly known as PMS. In the days before your periods start and during periods, your hormones go topsy turvy. It causes different symptoms in women that vary and differ in degree.
Common signs of PMs are bloating, breast tenderness, nausea, brain fogging, cramps, fatigue, insomnia, aggression, anger, problem in focusing, mood swings etc.
 A healthy diet with proper exercise goes a long way in managing pain due to PMS in periods.
Stress:
Stressful lifestyle may also cause painful periods. Anxiety causes the release of stress hormone that lowers your threshold for pain.
So, if you suffer from severe cramps, practice slow and deep breathing exercise and create a harmonious environment around you. Take plenty of rest and eat healthy.
 If you work out regularly, painful cramps during periods due to stress and anxiety will not bother you.
Cervical Stenosis:
Stenosis of the uterine cervix implies narrowing of the cervix. It can occur as a birth defect or as a side effect of a surgical procedure.
The blood and tissue that are shed during periods cannot pass through the narrowed cervix. This causes blockage, spotting and painful cramps during your menstrual cycle.
 It can make conception difficult too. However, this is a curable condition. Consult your gynecologist for ways to dilate the cervical passage. It will help ease the menstrual flow and pain.
Sexually Transmitted diseases:
If you suffer from abnormal bleeding and severe pain in periods, along with vaginal itching, burning sensation while urinating, lower back and tummy cramps, nausea or other symptoms, consult a doctor at the earliest.
Do not ignore severe pain during menstrual cycles. Listen to your body. Visit a gynecologist at the earliest and get a medical checkup done to rule out the possible medical conditions for the pain. In case of a medical anomaly, start with a proper treatment. Some conditions are easily preventable.
Stay aware. Give priority to your wellness!

[www.keralites.net] EYESIGHT LOSS SYMPTOMS AND NATURAL TREATMENTS

 

Eyesight Loss: Symptoms and Natural Treatments

Our eyes are perhaps our one of our most important sensory tools. They are the primary way for most of us to gather information about what's going on around us so we can sense the world, live, work, interact with people, and walk around safely, being able to tell what is coming up ahead with remarkable accuracy. However, with age, our eyesight may become dim and our eyes tired. It is, therefore, very important that we take good care of them through a proper diet, special exercises, and healthy habits that reduce the eye's stress and effort.
 But first, how do we even know if we are losing our eyesight?

How do you know if you are losing your sight?
If you are losing your vision, chances are you may not even know it. Vision loss happens so gradually that you may not recognize you have a problem until it becomes a much larger one. According to the World Health Organization, more than 285 million people worldwide are visually impaired. About 80 percent of those cases could have been avoided or cured with proper treatment. The best way to prevent such deterioration is by going to regular checkups with your eye doctor, but there are additional things you can do yourself to prevent and treat eyesight loss.
If you find yourself suffering from sudden and temporary blurred vision, changes in your night vision, changes in how you read and write, increased clumsiness (brushing more and more against objects) or an increased sensitivity to light, then you may be developin an eyesight problem.

If you found out about your problem early, or if you just want to keep your eyes healthy, there are many things you can do for your eyes that are completely natural and highly beneficial.
Natural ways to improve your eyesight:
Eye friendly Diet:
 Eating a healthy diet with plenty of fruits and vegetables will keep your eyesight from deteriorating and might even help improve it! Vitamin A, C, and E, are all important to eye health as well as foods rich in antioxidants.
Also, don't forget to add Omega 3 to your regular diet. These fatty acids are essential nutrients that have great health benefits. Most people know that they are good for your heart, but many don't realize that it can help keep your retinas healthy and slow down age-related eyesight deterioration.

To get all of these great nutrients, you can eat more things kale, chard, collards, spinach and carrots. Salmon and tuna are excellent for omega 3 and if you want even more beneficial non-meat protein you can have some bananas, beans or nuts.
It's important to remember that a change in your diet alone will only protect your eyes from more harm and can only lead to a minor improvement in your sight.
Perform Eye Exercises
 One of the best ways to naturally improve your vision is to perform daily eye exercises. Don't forget, your eyes have muscles just your arms or legs.
Start by doing an eye "warm up", rub your palms together and place them over your eyes. Hold your hands over your eyes for five to 10 seconds, and repeat 3-4 times.
 Your first exercise should be to just roll your eyes up and down without straining them too much. Look up as far as you can, and then look down. Repeat this 10 times. Now look to each side, repeating 10 times. Finally, roll your eyes in a clockwise motion about 10 times, then reverse the movement and roll them counter-clockwise 10 times as well.
When you are done, grab a pen or a pencil and hold it at arm's length, making sure it is at eye level. Focus on the tip as you slowly move it closer to your eyes. Always focus on the tip as you move it closer to you, and then back to arm's length. Repeat this 9 more times.
When you're done, massage your temples with your fingertips and gently move to your eyebrows and under your eyes as well. If your eyes feel tired close them and let them rest for a few moments. Just at the gym, these muscles can get tired if you overwork them.
Lifestyle Changes:
 The thing about our habits - they accumulate. Even the little things we do, when done often enough, can have negative consequences that keep building up.
1 – Stop smoking: Smoking can lead to macular degeneration later in life, as well as cataracts.

2 - Make things bigger and brighter: It is very straining for our eyes to look at small and dark objects, and doing so may lead to a decline in your eyesight. To prevent this you can do many things - changing the font size of the text you read and using the zoom option on computers and cellphones. You can also adjust the brightness settings on electronic screens and see if your paper has a larger-print edition.
3- Take more breaks: Practice the "20-20-20" rule. If your work or hobbies involve staring at a screen for long periods of time, take a break every 20 minutes, and focus on a point 20 feet away (6 meters) for at least 20 seconds. It will let your eyes relax a bit and change your focus. 
4 - Rest properly: Getting enough sleep at night is important for the health of your eyes. If your eyes are well-rested, they will be in a much better condition during the day.
 5 - Wear sunglasses: Too much exposure to ultraviolet light can lead to macular degeneration and cataracts. The old myth about staring at the sun has some truth in it, so avoid it when you can. If you don't want to wear sunglasses, a simple hat will also protect your eyes nicely.

I hope these tips will help you and that your eyes will continue to serve you well for many more years to come!

Re: [www.keralites.net] Mindset

 

I fully agree with you Ram. What is the fun of talking about past and mud slinging always. Nothing happened in the country except PM and his entourage to various countries. But tell me Indians will eat snacks prepared in Wynad and goli soda or go for McDonald burgers and coke? We talk but do little. Nobody owns the country. That is the main problem with Indians. We fail to adhere to rules and regulations, but speak about a great nation.

Dear Sir,

How will they talk of  Make in India when all our Udyogpatis are sitting in China and producing cheap stuff and sending to India instead of producing here,  In India all we now produce is Motor Cars and Transport vehicles in plenty and nothing else.  May be some TVs, WM and ACs.   Most of the Companies have been asked to close shop or folded up automatically.

BJP has not done anything in 2 years although they could have reduced the prices of essential items.  Do not expect magic from this Govt.  They are bereft of ideas.  They also lack competent people except for a few and the Govt. is run by a couple of people.

As for the rot set in during Congress Rule I will blame even the Opposition for not reining them in.  Opposition was not doing their job and gave a free rein.  But in spite of the shortcomings the Country has progressed a lot.

There should be less talk and more work.  It should start from the PM.  The PM talks only about Congress and its Rule nothing else.  He forgets that Congress did not rule for full 66 years.  There were others including NDA.   The BJP President wants Congress Mukt Bharat without any opposition.  

I wonder what is in store.

Rgds RAM

 Why no body is talking MAKE IN INDIA?

Even the loud mouths and mouth pieces of BJP are talking because they find this slogan does not give them any political milage and media attraction MAKE IN INDIA  is not a people`s commitment but mere Modi brand advertisement

Mind set channge will be seen once all other Lousy foul mouths of BJP stops and if they are focus themselve on GOOD INDUSTRIALISATION POLICY like make in India.  Good financial governance like BLACK MONEY EVACUATIONS.  Proper Tax collections and good investment programmes.

VERY DIFFICULT FOR THOSE WHO CAME TO POWER WITH MAGIC PROMISES AND MEAN MINDED CADRES. CONGRESS REQUIRES A SILENT BURIAL AS IT HAD ROTTED THE STATE GOVERNMENTS AND POWERS.
