Are You at the Risk for Heart Attack?

Hello people of the internet!
Today i'm gonna talk about our heart health and I'll be doing it in a Q&A format.


How susceptible are we Indians to heart attack??
Very susceptible I would say.In India,over 60% of people are susceptible to heart diseases.




How do we know whether we are in 'the category'??
Simplest thing a person can do is,go for a blood test. When you go for a blood test,ask for a lipid profile.Lipid means liquid fat.
You can also do a vitamin B test.I would go for these tests and check whether i am in bad levels.If I'm in bad levels, then i would go ahead and take preventive steps.




Preventive measures??
High risk is when your triglycerides are high ie, the bad cholesterol  LDL is high and good cholesterol ie HDL is low.
You need to meet your doctor/nutritionist and be planning your diet. Recent studies have shown that Mediterranean diet is the best in the world.It includes a lot of fruits and vegetables and olive oil.This food is basically grilled,rather than fried, to give your body and blood a little rest.

Protect and Safeguard your heart!
Thankyou
Stay healthy!

Top5 Affordable Methods To get Shining Hair ASAP

hello bunnies!!
How have you been doing?
Has the sun sucked out the moisture in your hair and caused them to be dull and frizzy??
Here are 5top tips for shiny hair.

#1 GET RID OF BUILDUP!
Sweat,pollution and left-out products cause buildup in our hair strands. The 1st step is to use a mild shampoo atleast twice a week. Pantene Pro-V is a nice mild shampoo.


#2 USE SHAMPOO AND CONDITIONER SUITING YOUR HAIR-TYPE!
You can use all the serums,sprays,creams but the shampoo and conditioner must be specific to your hair-type. Curly hair tends to be more dull and coarse than straight hair. Use Dove shampoo and Conditioner for curly hair,as they are more moisturising than any other shampoo and at the same time affordable. Meanwhile the straight-haired girls can go for Pantene,Himalaya,Sunsilk shampoos and Conditioners.


#3 USE HAIR SERUMS WITH CARE!
Curly hair needs a little pre-styling.Use Lo'real Proffessional Hair Mix Sublime Shine Serum, or any specialised products for dry and frizzy hair,which contains natural oils.
Straight-hair should towel-dry their damp hair and apply Livon.

#4 HAIR TREATMENT RULES!
The biggest enemy of dry hair is excessive straightening and blow-drying. Always go for air-dry unless necessary. After straightening your hair,always give your hair the nourishment of hot oil or oil application/massage. This will help retain natural oils. Never forget to oil your hair twice a week with Coconut oil or Olive oil or Almond oil.

#5 BRUSHING YOUR HAIR RIGHT!
Brushing wet hair is a BIG NO-NO! bad brushing habits can lead to serious damages to your hair like breakage. Always brush your hair starting from the bottom and then going upwards. Use a big-toothed comb while removing the tangles and then a soft brush to get the neat soft look.

Hope this will help you guys!
See ya soon! :)

Cure for Migraine!

Hello sunshines!
Are you sensitive to sound or light or touch for days at a stretch?? Do you suffer from headaches continuously??
It could be Migraine.
Migraine is a chronic neurological disorder characterized by severe headache, specially affecting just one side of the head.
Today I'm gonna share with you guys some ways to reduce the severity and frequency of migraine. Here are some amazing home remedies that will help you fight through this.


1. Ice packs:
Ice packs/Ice Towels provide almost instant relief when wrapped around the head. This is because it improves blood circulation in that area and hence reduces the pain.



2.Water & Caffeine:
Did you know that most headaches are caused by dehydration?
You MUST drink around 2-3 liters of water a day.
Talking about caffeine, it sometimes cures headaches and in some cases even cause them. Caffeine reduces pain because it restricts our blood vessels. But remember not to take in excess coffee because it is not good for health.


3.Ginger:
Ginger has anti-inflammatory agents which helps reduce nausea that comes together with migraines.


4.Henna:
Henna must have been used by you to color your hair. But it can actually fight off migraine too!
Soak some henna flowers in vinegar and then rub the flowers against your forehead.You can see your headache disappear instantly.


5.Veggies & Fruits:
Green leafy vegetables and fruits are efficient in fighting off migraine because of their rich Magnesium properties. Lower levels of magnesium can cause migraines.


Thank You!
Hope you have a peaceful day! :)
