Chocolates Acts as "Anti – Depressants"


In a Recent study made by AUSTRALIAN scientists, about the Chocolates, and they had Confirmed that Chocolates works like as anti – depressants.

Food rich in fat and sugar can alter chemical composition in the brain to reduce anxiety, professor Margaret Morris said.

In a study of rats, Professor Morris, from the University of NSW's School of Medical Sciences, found effects of past trauma could be erased by "unlimited access to yummy food".

"Implementing that diet reversed anxiety ... it took an animal back to the non-stressed state," Professor Morris said.

"We really don't know why, but there seems to be a biochemical link."

Using two groups of baby rats, one with normal contact with mothers, the other with lengthy separations and higher stress hormones, scientists found they became less stressed with comfort foods.

"The control group had no effect from the diet really, but the stressed animals had a deficit ... which was restored by the diet."

"(The) food seems to affect neurogenesis similar to the way anti-depressants promote nerve growth in the brain."

Too Much Oiling Can Cause Hair Loss


Applying excessive oil on hairs causes the hair loss. Yes, this is true because many people are facing the problem of hair loss due to the excessive oiling. The research study that was conducted to study the effect of the oil on hairs gave us the 2 results. It concluded that applying oil in minute amount is good for hairs but applying in excess can reverse its good effect into negative impact. Anything in excess is not good for the health; the same effect is being seen in this case. The usage of the oil must be in controlled limit to get its good impact on the hairs. The type of the oil you are using also affects the hair growth and hair structure. You need to balance the use of the oil as per your hair structure and quality.

Oil is essential nutrient for the hairs for the proper growth. Specifically the oil made from the coconut is noted to be very effective in promoting the natural hair growth process. So, as per the general assumptions oil is good for the hairs. But, this is what later on makes us addicted towards the oil usage. We later on start applying the oil daily on the hairs as it makes look the hairs better. So, it is my advice to all the readers to limit the oil usage. You must never apply the oil in excess as it may damage the hair growth. Numbers of studies have proved that excessive oil usage is not good for the health of the hairs.

When a person starts applying the oil regularly on the hairs then the formation of the oil layer takes place on the every hair. This way the hairs get sticky and the dust particles or any other foreign bodies stick to the hairs. These particles get deposited at the basement of the hairs and start the formation of the dandruff. As a result the hairs loosen their grip from the basement and once you comb them they start falling. Even the nutrient supply to the hairs is being insufficient once they loosen their grip over the scalp. As a result the hairs get weak and they fall leading to the formation of the bald patches. You will not notice the effect of excessive oiling soon, but after the year or two you will directly notice the bald patches.

Various varieties of the oils made from almond, coconut, groundnut, jasmine, etc are available in the market. If you use any of these oils in a limit then they are certainly good to your health. But, if you use them in excess then it is going to damage the hair structure and promote the hair loss. As per the medical standards the usage of the oil is being recommended only once in the two or three days depending on your hairs. If your hairs are very much dry then I would suggest you to use it thrice in a week, but not more than that.

Applying oil on the head is good for the health. For this you need to follow a strict routine. Never apply it in excess otherwise it may damage the health of the hairs. Specifically the hair oil that is sticky does more harm to the hairs as the close the pores in the hairs and disturb the supply of the nutrients to the hairs. This causes thinning of the hairs and later on the hairs break. So, apply the oil on the hairs but in a limit never apply it regularly or on every day because it is causing no good to the hairs.

Factors that lead to the excessive weight gain

Excessive weight gain has become a very common problem nowadays. Previously very few people use to suffer with this disease, but nowadays many people are noted to be facing the issue of excessive weight gain. Even young kids and teenagers are suffering with this problem. Weight gain if not treated in time may result into the various other health disorders like heart attack, blood pressure, diabetes, and many more. The most common outcome of the excessive weight gain is obesity. This happens when the undigested fats and carbohydrates start putting the adverse impact on the other body parts. Healthy weight is good for the fitness but please take a good care that it never gets above the boundary and you get prone to excessive weight gain.

One of the major factors contributing to the excessive weight gain is the uncontrolled intake of the fats and carbohydrates. When a person eats foods rich in carbohydrates and fats then they enter the body where they are digested. Due to the excessive amount of the fats and carbohydrates body fails to digest all. The undigested fats and carbohydrates are stored in the body. As a result of this you start to see the bulky stomach, which is the first sign of the excessive weight gain. Later on you will notice that all your body structure is becoming bulky day-by-day. Thus, you get prone to the excessive weight gain.

Nowadays, most of the jobs that we people are doing demand us to sit at the one place. Lack of physical activity is what we do. This is another important factor that is contributing to the excessive weight gain. Due to this the food in our body stays undigested. Some of the food is thrown and some is stored in the body. This stored food starts increasing the weight of the person. The person remains unaware and suddenly on a day one of his friends tells him that he has gained a lot of weight. This is how we excessive weight gain problem is becoming so common.

The people who are suffering with the diabetes are noted to be gaining a weight at the faster pace than normal healthy individual. Diabetes is one of the factors that make the person prone to the excessive weight gain. The more amount of the sugar in the body slows down the metabolism process. This leads to the deposition of the unwanted fats and carbohydrates in the body. As a result the excessive weight gain is being noted.

Hormonal imbalance results in the excessive weight gain. The less amounts of the testosterone in the body of the men and decrease in the level of the oestrogen in the women’s body affects the digestion process. Fat absorption process of the destructed and the body. Menopause is also being linked to the excessive weight gain in women. So, try to maintain the proper hormone levels in the body to stay away from the excessive weight gain.

Stress and lack of sleep contribute to the excessive weight gain. Stress boosts the weight gain as it slows down the digestion process, which ultimately results in deposition of unwanted fats and carbohydrates in the body. Due to the inconsistent sleep a person the energy in the person’s body is not utilized thus the combustion of the fats is stopped. As a result the fats are stored in the body and you start gaining the weight.

Hypothyroidism
is the major contributing factor to the excessive weight gain. Due to the malfunctioning of the thyroid gland the necessary amount of the enzymes required to digest food are not produced. This way the essential nutrients in the body remain undigested and are of no help to the body. As a result they get accumulated in the body are results in excessive weight gain.

These are few common factors that lead to the excessive weight gain. Remember to keep a good watch on these factors to stay away from various other health complications caused due to the excessive weight gain.
