Health is real wealth

 In  a recent study published in the journal Child and Adolescent Mental Health , researchers investigated whether greater fruit and vegetable intake and lower sugar-sweetened beverage ( SSB ) consumption were linked to common mental disorder ( CMD ) risk among adolescents in Australia. While greater fruit intake was linked to lower risks of meeting screening thresholds for depression and anxiety, higher SSB intake was associated with greater risk, with a numerically stronger association for anxiety among males. Fruit intake had an inverse relationship with both outcomes, with depression risk 13% lower and anxiety risk 7% lower for each additional daily serving. Based on the findings, everyday dietary choices may be relevant to adolescent mental health and inform early prevention strategies.

  Walking for just 10 minutes after eating can blunt blood glucose levels by 17 per cent, lower triglycerides by a striking 72 per cent, and accelerate digestion. He also noted that this easy habit may help reduce blood pressure by around 5 mmHg and improve sleep quality.

Natural Does Not Always Mean Safe: 50 Plant-Derived Supplements That Can Cause Organ Damage The word “natural” often creates a false sense of safety. A substance extracted from a plant can contain highly active chemicals capable of affecting the liver, kidneys, heart, nervous system, thyroid, reproductive organs or immune system. The liver is particularly important because it metabolizes many substances absorbed from the digestive tract, including medicines and compounds present in herbal supplements. In some people, these compounds can cause herb- or supplement-induced liver injury (HILI/DILI) . The American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) recognizes herbal and dietary supplements as an important cause of drug-induced liver injury. In the U.S. Drug-Induced Liver Injury Network, herbal and dietary supplements have accounted for roughly 10% or more of identified DILI cases, with more recent analyses reporting proportions above 16% . This does not mean that 16% of p...

 Here are the science‑validated points from the article “Men over 50: If you can do these things, you are in good shape” : Walking briskly : Research shows that maintaining walking speed is a strong predictor of longevity and cardiovascular health. Squatting and standing without support : Validated as a marker of lower‑body strength, balance, and reduced fall risk in older adults. Push‑ups : Studies link the ability to perform push‑ups with upper‑body strength and lower risk of cardiovascular disease. Plank hold : Core strength and stability are scientifically associated with reduced back pain and better functional mobility. Flexibility (touching toes) : Evidence supports flexibility as important for musculoskeletal health and injury prevention. Balance (standing on one leg) : Validated by research as a predictor of fall risk and overall neuromuscular health in aging. 👉 These are the functional fitness markers that science recognizes as meaningful indicators of health and longev...

Dengue — Signs & Symptoms Typical onset: 4–10 days after an infected mosquito bite. 1. Febrile phase (usually 2–7 days) Sudden high-grade fever Severe headache Retro-orbital pain (pain behind eyes) Marked muscle and joint pains (“break-bone” pain) Nausea/vomiting Rash, often appearing around day 3–5 Mild bleeding: gum/nose bleeding, easy bruising 2. Warning signs — usually around defervescence (day 3–7) Severe or persistent abdominal pain Persistent vomiting Mucosal bleeding Lethargy/restlessness Clinical fluid accumulation Hepatomegaly Rising hematocrit with rapidly falling platelet count 3. Severe dengue Shock/hypotension due to plasma leakage Severe bleeding Severe organ involvement: liver, brain, heart or kidneys Altered consciousness Respiratory distress Key clinical point: The critical phase often begins when the fever starts settling , so apparent improvement in temperature does not necessarily mean recovery. Diagnostic approach: # Suspected ...
