Lose weight - eat Fibre!

Nov 23

Fibre is important for protecting your body from cancers and heart disease. Fibre is also a magical substance that will help you regulate your blood sugar levels, preventing a rapid release of sugar into the bloodstream and therefore could help you shift the weight.

The daily recommended fibre intake  is 25-30 grams. Drink at least six to eight 8-ounces glasses of water daily to avoid constipation.

Weight Loss Myths Debunked

Nov 09

Some people eat loads and don’t get fat:

Medical conditions aside, scientists agree that anyone who overeats, will gain weight. Even super skinny people. If you see them gorging on a huge portion, they will most likely instinctively snack or go lighter on supper to cancel out calories.

Exercise boosts your metabolism:

Everywhere you turn, devoted exercisers will tell you how working out can lift your metabolism to new heights, ultimately leading you to lose weight. Fact is, while exercise  is vital for a healthy body, a kg of muscle mass actually only adds 10 calories to your metabolic rate -  the equivalent to half a teaspoon of sugar.

 

DNA fertility test warns women how long they have left to start a family

Nov 05

We live in a world where women have swapped the apron for a suit and the kitchen for an office. More and more women are career driven and opt to be successful rather than just a mother. Being a mother may very well be the toughest job in the world, but now more than ever, women choose against children and that is a pretty good thing.

Studies have shown that women who follow a career path first and later on in life decide to have a baby, are more determined, in a good financial situation and overall “better” mums than teenagers or early twenty year olds.

On the other hand, women who want children don’t want to be waiting until their chances of conceiving have severely dropped.

A new DNA test can tell a woman as young as 18 how long she has left to start a family is being developed by scientists.
By monitoring the speed of the biological clock, the test can reveal how many eggs a woman has left - and give early warning of declining fertility.
If a woman tests positive, she can opt to start a family sooner - or freeze some eggs to increase the chances of conceiving a child in her 30s.
