By Ed PhilipsIf it is that alcohol brings about such a number if negative issues, why is it not only legal, but in some cases accepted? Although it is that we have placed a limit on what we as a society will tolerate, we still allow the use and consumption of a potentially unhealthy, dangerous, and even deadly substance when consumed at sometimes even moderate amounts. So why is it that there is
By Ed PhilipsThere are a large number of mixed messages that we receive in our society today. Everything from what we eat, even to what we should wear changes from day to day in what is considered right or wrong. So why is it when a message giving warning of something being harmful, unhealthy and even illegal is not only dismissed, but the opposite message is promoted? The message in question is t

Water is the most abundant and important element on the earth; approximately seventy percent of the globe is covered in water. In the recent years drinking water filter systems have been regaining in popularity after the bottled water coup pushed them to the back of the shelf.Taking The Grit Out Of The Nitty Gritty : The problem many people face with drinking tap water is getting past theirs. Aside from the less than desirable taste, many impurities and chemicals still exist that can do more harm than good to the human body. Bottled water is good on a road trip and during sporting events, but I can get rather pricey for daily consumption. Not to mention the excess waste that is produced from all of the empty bottles. Is there an option B? There are certainly advantages to owning a drinking
Health Ministry seems to be at it again. According to Health Minister Anbumani Ramadoss, actors drinking on screen will encourage youngsters to take up the habit. Hence, scenes depicting alcohol consumption in films need to immediately stop.However, industry is united against the proposed on-screen drinking ban and is unanimous in its stance:Madhur Bhandarkar - This is really absurd. Don't we all know that on-screen drinking is not something which has been picked by film makers only now? It has been there since the B&W era and any die hard film buff would know that greats like Ashok Kumar and KN Singh have been seen smoking and drinking in many a films. Why don't we rather see how much does cinema contribute when we talk about communal harmony and power of tolerance? Let's not try pick
In the day and age of today, most people are ensuring that they have a decent ‘health expectancy’ rather than ‘Life expectancy’. This is the latest trend that ensures that you are healthy enough to enjoy the years that you live and it is becoming more and more important because life expectancy has increased due to the advances in science and technology. Many people are not in favor of taking too many supplements since it is not a natural way of ingesting vitamins and minerals but there is a counter argument as well. Surely, these additional inputs are not required during the growing years and one can enjoy a healthy life without making these as crutches but as soon as one reaches adulthood and especially after the age of 30, there is a steep decline in the efficiency with which you
Hari Krishna is now backing into full time politics. The senior TDP member and son of late NT Rama Rao was recently nominated to the Rajya Sabha by Chandra Babu Naidu. Hari Krishna has been lying low for many years but Babu brought him back recently.He is now a power centre in the Telugu Desam in his own right. Many party leaders look to him for help and guidance. Hari Krishna has also vowed to devote all his energies in bringing back TDP to power and restoring the party to its earlier glory.Hari Krishna has also vowed to stop drinking from the day of the election campaign. He will drink only after the party wins the elections. Some people are saying sarcastically that he will drink any way, as if the party loses, then he may down liquor to pacify his broken heart.Courtesy:greatandhra

(Click Picture to Read Article)As the very old cliche goes, "Too much of something is bad for you". And this includes substances that are supposed to be good for the health, but when these substances are abused then these become bad for the body; toxic even.This article is really extraordinary. Imagine drinking 7 liters of water everyday, one would really bloat. Chronic water intoxication leads to hyponatremia as the sodium found in the blood is diluted. As sodium is diluted there is less pressure that retains the water in the blood vessel. If we recall, water will always follow sodium. But since there is no more sodium in the blood vessel then the water seeps into the interstitial tissues and outside the blood vessel.It's ironic too that the woman drank water to lower her blood pressure n

Fox’s audience is dwindling in general, and their campaign coverage is lagging behind CNN and MSNBC.
Of the Fox audience that’s left, a large chunk of them are doing the political equivalent of covering their ears and going “la la la la, not listening.”

Who knew there were contests for this kind of stuff. But then again, now I am kind of curious to drive down to Southampton and try their water.A panel of judges at the Great American Water Taste Test has decided that Southampton has the best-tasting drinking water in the country. The contest is held each year on Earth Day during a meeting of the National Rural Water Association in Washington. Using the same standards as wine testers, the judges sampled drinking water entries from 39 states for bouquet, clarity and taste. Southampton Water Superintendent Joseph Slattery told the Republican newspaper of Springfield that he personally drew the sample from a town well that draws water from the Barnes Aquifer. He said the water is so clean and natural it doesn't even have to be treated.

Although green tea drink has been around for many centuries most especially in Asian countries, modern studies and modern researches have only recently shown that there are many health benefits to be had in drinking green tea. With the benefits turning up one after another from these researches, it is even quite surprising to think about the many health benefits man has done without from not having maximized the drink. What are these health benefits that green tea boasts of? Here is a short rundown: a. Anti-Oxidant - Green tea leaves contain anti-oxidants. These anti-oxidants help strengthen the circulatory system, preventing certain heart conditions such as atherosclerosis which causes heart attacks, heart failures, and other coronary artery and heart diseases. b.

A very recent study has found that green tea and losing weight are connected to each other.

Animal studies conducted earlier showed that green tea extract had the ability to increase thermogenesis, or the method of generating body heat through normal digestion, absorption and metabolization of food.

It has become much more popular to find natural remedies in the things we eat and drink. This very much is reflected in the decisions we make when it comes to determining which of the many specialty teas we will choose to enjoy today. So many teas have medicinal properties and so people are drinking them with improving their health in mind. This is because these teas are able to improve the body's immune system making the tea drinker more resistant to disease. But they can also help to improve a person's memory, add to a tea drinker's cognitive abilities and even length a person's life span. It is believed that all this can happen with the consumption of the right specialty tea on a regular basis. All teas are one definite health benefit, in that even the traditional black and orange peko

Green tea, which is considered to be one of the most popular herbal supplements in the world today, has only been until recently discovered by the world to have a lot of many nutritional benefits. It has actually been enjoyed by the Chinese and Japanese cultures, as well as other cultures in Asia, for thousands of years already, specifically for its medicinal purposes. Based on studies, people should brew the leaves in their natural and original form instead of using tea bags in order to garner the best quality health benefits from it. Basically, tea that are made from leaves are good for you since it is mainly made up of safe elements, such as water, phytochemicals, and caffeine. Green tea, however, only contains a quarter of the amount of caffeine found in coffee, and about half of the
