Top 10 Foods To Reduce Belly Fat :)
Assalamualaikum & Greetings To All :)
- Hormonal Imbalance.
- Excessive eating.
- Intake of large quantities of alcohol,sweets and chocolates.
- Lack of exercise.
- STRESS --> Increased production of Cortisol -> Stimulates storage of fat around the waist.
- Improper digestion, commonly due to malfunctioned of the gastrointestinal system.
- Decreased efficiency of burning calories as we add years to our age which eventually leads to sluggish metabolism and persistently puffy belly.
Here's some information on foods which you should consume if you have a bloated belly.
Eggs: They provide good quality protein which in turn helps overcome hunger pangs.
Beans: Beans like black gram, green gram, chick peas and green moong bustle with fiber and proteins.They help you shed pounds and improve muscle tone.
Oat Meal: Befriend the good ol' oats if you're battling belly fat. Start your day with oats cooked in water or consume them with milk. They're high in soluble fibre and low in fat.
Vegetables: Green vegetables are rich source of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and fibre. Consuming vegetables for dinner without rice is helpful in shrinking the waist size. What's more,most green veggies have only 30-60 calories per 100 grams.
Barley: Barley has a considerably low glycaemic index (for diabetic patient) and contains lots of soluble fibre. This helps in diminishing the circumference of the waist. Regular consumption cuts down the risk of cardiac diseases and type II diabetes.
Green Tea: Polyphenols present in the tea help boost metabolism. Green tea is less processed and contains higher levels of anti-oxidants. It greatly suppresses the appetite.
Milk: When we say milk, we're not recommending full-cream milk. In fact, make sure you stay away from that. Go for non-fat milk which has the same amount of calcium and protein as full-cream milk but contains less sodium and helps prevent water retention (edema). This reduces bloating.
Yogurt: It's oozing with calcium and protein and has very less calories (80 calories in a cup of low-fat yogurt). The beneficial bacteria present in yogurt boost immunity and aid bowel movement.
Tomatoes: The luscious red tomatoes contain only 20 calories per hundred gram. They are rich in fibres, lycopene and potassium. They avert water retention, thereby also preventing bloating of the belly.
Olive Oil: People realise that veggies are good for health but many find their taste boring. Add a small quantity of olive oil. This will improve the flavour of vegetables and make them tastier. But its real benefit is that it can help you lose the hateful flab around your belly.
Remember,things that are tasty to the tongue buds are usually harmful for the gut :)
Eat well and stay healthy :)

Read through me....
Alhamdulillah,thank u Allah..For giving me another to share things with everyone :)
Read through me.... Some people are naturally born with the talent,where he or she can read through a person just by looking at their facial expressions... They are called 'naturals'... Nevertheless, there are people who also have the ability to read through others by acquiring the knowledge :) They are called 'experts'...
A facial expression results from one or more motions or positions of the muscles of the face. These movements convey the emotional state of the individual to observers. Facial expressions are a form of nonverbal communication. They are a primary means of conveying social information among humans, but also occur in most other mammals and some other animal species.
Humans can adopt a facial expression to read as a voluntary action. However, because expressions are closely tied to emotion, they are more often involuntary. It can be nearly impossible to avoid expressions for certain emotions, even when it would be strongly desirable to do so, a person who is trying to avoid insult to an individual, he or she finds highly unattractive might nevertheless show a brief expression of disgust before being able to reassume a neutral expression. Microexpressions are one example of this phenomenon. The close link between emotion and expression can also work in the other direction; it has been observed that voluntarily assuming an expression can actually cause the associated emotion.
Some expressions can be accurately interpreted even between members of different species- anger and extreme contentment being the primary examples. Others, however, are difficult to interpret even in familiar individuals. For instance, disgust and fear can be tough to tell apart. Because faces have only a limited range of movement, expressions rely upon fairly minuscule differences in the proportion and relative position of facial features, and reading them requires considerable sensitivity to same. Some faces are often falsely read as expressing some emotion, even when they are neutral, because their proportions naturally resemble those another face would temporarily assume when emoting.
As for me, I've learned, though not an expert, on how to read people expressions... It is somehow important for me as a doctor, to know whether a patient is lying while telling the history of his or her illness... There are few conditions or circumstances where you cant apply this knowledge on people,especially when they are using BOTOX, as Botox paralyses all your facial muscles. Stroke also can somehow affect the face reading. Kindly watch this video to learn more about facial expressions http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=TrgNKGjSyxA
The most important take home message is, facial expressions is an universal phenomena, no matter who you are, right from the billionaire to the beggar,because we humans have the same facial muscles :)

Technology Versus Alternative....
I was just browsing the pages and suddenly my eyes cought something interesting, "In - Vitro maturation of oocytes via the pre-fabricated self-assembled artificial human ovary". Though still under the level of research but still humans are trying to create things which God has created. This research basically using Theca and Granulosa cells from the follicles of reproductive-aged group women,seeded into micro-molded gels and later self-assembled into complex 3D microtissues (artificial ovary).
The main purpose of this research is to help the women who has fertility problems mainly due to ovarian failure. It was an unbelievable yet interesting article for me. Although there are billions and trillions of technology has been innovated in the world of medicine,still we cant put aside the alternative way of treating an illness.
There are many options in alternative medicine. For example,ayurverdic treatment where they use herbal products to cure the diseases or at least to control or prevent the illnesses. Apart from that, as a Muslim,we believe in the holy Al-Quran where it contains lots of secrets beneath it. Here, I would to share few sentences from Al-Quran where we can practice to cure,control or prevent diseases. Collectively,it is knows as "6 ayat-ayat As-syifa".
- Surah at-Taubah : 14
- Surah Yunus : 57
- Surah al-Nahl : 69
- Surah al-Isra' : 82
- Surah as-Syu'ara :80
- Surah al-Fussilat :44
So,lets open the holy Al-Quran and start searching for these sentences along with the translation and May all of us get Blessing And Merciness from Allah..Insha Allah... :)

Cerebral Palsy...??
- Disorder of posture and movements - Cerebral palsy affects the brain (cerebrum) which controls the body parts. Therefore, the child will have difficulties in maintaining his body posture (sitting or standing). Apart from that,the child might experienced difficulties in body movements like eating,walking or sitting, depending upon the severity of the disease. Other than that,the child might have abnormal involuntary movements of the limbs. The limbs are usually spastic in majority of the cases.
- Non Progressive - Everyone should know that cerebral palsy (CP) is a non progressive disease once it is acquired. The disability that the child have will remain the same and the disease process is static. Unfortunately,there is no cure for CP. The only management for this child is supportive management in terms of moral support, physical support, vocational training and orthopaedics intervention like splints or surgery.
- Not necessary unchanging - Though CP is a non progressive disease, yet the disease process can change. For example, a child born with CP and later on,the baby developed jaundice which leads to kernicterus. This will worsen the symptoms of CP that the baby acquired before.
- Acquired during the period of rapid development of the brain - CP occured due to insult to the brain (hypoxia/lack of oxygen),mainly during the rapid development of the brain. The insult can occur during pre-natal period (before delivery/pregnancy) for example,microcephaly or porencephaly. The insult also can occur during natal period (delivery of the baby) like obstructed and prolonged labour. Lastly,insult can occured during post-natal period (after delivery), for example kernicterus or hypoglycaemia.
- Associated with other co-morbidities - CP usually accompanied by other co-morbidities (disabilities). For example,a CP child usually have difficulty in hearing and speaking. Identification of these co - morbidities are important in the management later.
The definition of CP per se can describe the disease as whole. I would like to thank Dr. Mahesh Kamte,Peadiatrician in KLE Hospital,Belgaum who tought me CNS in Peadiatric,and give me this wonderful definition regarding CP.
