Hot shower damages skin



Long hours in hot shower strips the skin of its natural oils as it’s very drying and can lead to uncomfortably dehydrated skin.
We recommend limiting the amount of time you shower (keep it under five minutes) and using a moisturizing body wash instead of soap and most importantly use lukewarm water. Another critical step is to moisturize the skin within three minutes of getting out of the bath or shower, to lock the water into the skin.

Does your skin colour determine your personality?





If you’re black, what does it mean to be black? If you’re white, what does it mean to be white? And if you’re anywhere in between, how does your skin colour affect how you define yourself, and others define you?
What’s behaving ‘white’? What’s behaving ‘black’?
A lot of people simply rejected the notion of skin colour differentiating people.There are good and bad people, smart and stupid people, generous and mean people…. And believe me, it’s never been connected to their colour or kind.
But is it that simple?
The fact that four fifth of humanities is non-White makes this subject a relevant and current issue worth pursuing. Notably, it addresses the identity crises majority of the world’s population face. Identity crisis? Is that really happening?
White, yellow, green or black, we are all human beings. The problem resides in our mentality and I think it is hereditary and psychological. We blacks just need a change of mentality.’ But does that mean to stop thinking of yourselves as black?
Is black is a state of mind?
Please tell us your experiences/thoughts.

Foods which become unhealthy to eat late at night






A heavy meal at night can put a strain on your digestive system and disrupt your sleep. Plus, it may contribute to weight gain because you aren’t likely to burn that many calories while you sleep. Good health is not just about eating the right foods. It’s about eating the right foods — in the right proportions at the right time.
Coffee
Caffeine can keep you tossing and turning in your bed for hours due to its temporary stimulating effect. It has also been found to alter the normal stages of sleep and compromise deep sleep. Lack of quality sleep at night can hinder cognitive functions and contribute to daytime tiredness.
If you are thinking about switching to decaffeinated coffee, be aware that most decaf coffees are not completely caffeine-free. Instead of clinging to your coffee, try an herbal tea.
 Beans
Though healthy, beans should also be avoided at night. The jingle “Beans, Beans, The Musical Fruit” best describes the reason. Being high in soluble fiber, beans can cause flatulence and tummy troubles late at night.
In fact, increased abdominal gas is a common side effect of most high-fiber diets. Both soluble as well as insoluble fiber cause gas, but soluble fiber has a higher gas-producing potential because it slows the passage of food through the intestine where the gut bacteria break down carbohydrates and cause fermentation and gas.
Lentils, peas, nuts and seeds are also rich in soluble fiber. Foods that contain insoluble fiber include broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, Brussels sprouts and other cruciferous vegetables. Garlic, onions, shallots, chicory root and leeks may also contribute to gas and flatulence.
 Alcohol
Alcohol can cause a drowsy effect but it does not produce revitalizing sleep. According to a 2013 review of 27 studies on the effect of drinking on nocturnal sleep, although alcohol reduces the time it takes to fall asleep and even increases deep sleep, it tends to reduce REM (rapid eye movement) sleep that influences your memory and serves restorative functions.
A refreshing, good night’s sleep includes 6 to 7 cycles of REM sleep. With alcohol in your system, it can be reduced to just 1 or 2. Alcohol can also cause snoring as it relaxes all the body’s muscles, including the throat muscles, thus reducing your defenses against airway obstruction.
 Red meat
Eating steak or other red meat products can keep you tossing and turning in bed at night. Due to their high fat and protein content, these foods take time to digest and thus keep the body awake throughout the digestion process. They also make you feel sluggish the next morning.
Instead of relishing that thick, juicy steak, opt for lean meat and vegetables. However, avoid cruciferous vegetables like cauliflower, broccoli and cabbage as they can cause abdominal gas.
