GHEE


Hormones can cause huge havoc in men and women. Whether it is severe acne and hair on the face, fatigue, yo-yo weight gain, irregular menstrual cycles, low libido, brittle hair, depression or poor fertility. The symptoms of hormonal imbalance and their severity may vary but they are very distressing. And are today an epidemic of sorts. Hormones sound complex (after all, there are about 200 of them). To keep your hormones happy include these seven foods in your diet on a regular basis.

Oestrogen imbalance shows up in abdominal obesity, bloating, cold hands and feet, hair loss, mental fogginess, hot flashes, night sweats and temperature swings. Food pick: Spirulina has the essential fatty acids that help the liver metabolise excess oestrogen. Have it mixed with water or add to smoothies.

Thyroid keeps our metabolism in shape, and its imbalance leads to us, feeling cold or sluggish all the time.
Thyroid has the highest selenium content, and its deficiency is often a primary cause of thyroid disorders. Mackerel is a good source of selenium.

This BANANA sleep hormone helps you stay rested and sleep well. And sleep debt is associated with higher weight and hormonal imbalance. Its imbalance shows up as you begin to experience fatigue, impaired memory and lack of concentration. B6 rich foods, particularly banana, as it helps the body produce melatonin naturally.
Insulin is the body’s sugar regulator. Imbalance shows up in the form of lethargy, hunger, brain fog and weight gain. Food pick: Cinnamon helps keep your blood sugar stable through the day and insulin tamed.
Liver is our body’s master filter – it cleans out toxins we are exposed to and is the powerhouse of all hormone production and metabolism. Food pick: Jamun can keep it healthy as it prevents excessive lipid accumulation, which leads to fatty liver and multiple hormonal messes.

Ghee.
When cortisol rises, it makes our body hoard fat as it encourages conversion of blood sugar into fat for long-term storage. It also leads to food cravings and, addictions and irritability, frequent headaches, anxiety, high blood pressure. Food pick: Good fats are building blocks of all hormones – and are especially helpful with stabilising the production of stress hormone cortisol. Eat ghee from grass fed cows to keep cortisol low.

Finally, the important thing to understand is that all our hormones are interconnected, and interact and work together synergistically – so even if one is out of whack, it can start a bad cascading effect. Don’t let that happen – for the sake of your weight and health.

Eat a hormone stabilising diet.

[ Chocolate & Coffee.]


Science Says Chocolate & Coffee May Prevent an Early Death.
Anti-Inflammatory Foods Could Prevent an Early Death.

With the rapid rate at which dietary advice changes, it's sometimes very tricky to keep up with what's supposedly good and bad for you. One of the latest studies to be published in the Journal of Internal Medicine has claimed that you can lower your risk of a premature death by following an anti-inflammatory diet.

Scientists analyzed data from 68,000 Swedish people between the ages of 46 and 83, and discovered that people who followed a diet consisting of anti-inflammatory foods like tea, coffee, fruits and vegetables, breakfast cereal, whole grain bread, olive oil, nuts, and chocolate were 18% less likely to die at a young age.

Most specifically, the participants following an anti-inflammatory diet had a 13% lower risk of dying from cancer and a 20% lower risk of dying from cardiovascular problems. Interestingly, smokers who followed such a diet also saw greater benefits than smokers who didn't.

Inflammation is believed to be the root of many illnesses, including dementia, cardiovascular issues, and certain types of cancers. Therefore, using certain types of foods to reduce inflammation seems to be a good way of fighting back any damage caused. According to lead author Joanna Kaluza, "even partial adherence to the anti-inflammatory diet may provide a health benefit."A study that was carried out earlier this year shows that eating three bars of dark chocolate each month may actually lower your chances of getting heart disease. This adds to a body of research that has shown how moderate consumption of chocolate may be good for the heart. Similar research has also shown that drinking coffee may also be connected to improved health and longevity.
