Healthy Lungs to Healthy Brain

Healthy lungs is the secret to smarter brains in Kids .Lung function to mental activity in middle-aged and older adults and there is evidence that the respiratory and neurological systems are influenced by some of the same factors during childhood. A team at Harvard University has found that healthy lungs in children increase their memory, learning and intelligence. It conclude that after examing data on 165 children who had been followed since birth.
At the age of six, the children had their lung function tested. At nine , they completed standard tests of memory, learning ability and intelligence.They found that for each increase in the children’s lung-function performance, there was actually a corresponding increase in their cognitive-test scores. the link remained even when they took into consideration factors that could be related to both lung function and cognitive abilities in children, like asthma, and exposure to lead or parents smoking

Sympathy and Empathy

In Sympathy, you tend to understand the other and also end up agreeing with them. That’s why you feed a beggar .In apathy, you don’t want to agree with the other, and hence you don’t even attempt to understand them. That’s why you don’t even turn to look at a beggar.
In Empathy , you seek to understand the other and then make an Independent choice on whether you want to agree with them or not. You can feel with the hunger of the beggar, but you don’t agree that begging is the solution. He could always take up work.
Sympathy weakens you, but saves the relationship. Apathy may not weaken you,but will destroy the relationship. Empathy makes both you and the relationship Stronger.

Carrots for Eye

Bugs and Bunny didn,t wear glasses,but his uncanny ability to spot a hunter at a hundred paces had nothing to do with his favourite food.While carrots do have a lot going for them, including fibre and vitamin A ,eating them won’t improve your vision.Truth is, the British Royal Air force started this myth during World War II to explain its pilots phenomenal success al locating enemy bombers in near-total darkness.In reality. It was the development of one of the first radar systems that gave the pilots “Superior Vision”.
If We don,t get enough Vitamin A, Our Vision can suffer.But Vitamin A is Stored in the body.so Vitamin A in carrot would help us for the good vision

Fruits can Prevent Cancer

By simply eating three servings of fruits and vegetables everyday and drinking green or black tea,smokers can be able to substantially reduce their risk of developing lung cancer.A study has found that tobacco smokers who ingest high levels of natural chemicals ,called Flavonoids,in their diet have a lower risk of developing lung cancer – the main cause of which is puffing . Flavonoids block the formation of blood vessels that tumors develop so they can grow and spread, and stop cancer cells from growing , allowing for naturally programmed cell death, or apoptosis, to occur.The several types of Flavonoids are associated with a reduced risk of Lung cancer among smokers.
