5 Foods to Avoid Eating at Night

12:11:00 AM

It’s nearly 10pm, you should be preparing to hit the sheets. That’s when your stomach starts rumbling with hunger.

You’ve been told over and over how eating late makes you gain unnecessary fat. While there’s more to it than just getting heavy, you might need to start making some smart choices about your midnight snacks.
Instead of reaching out for the tastiest snack in your fridge, take the time to pick light and healthy food.




Foods to avoid eating past bed time - Gozkybrain Izuka
Below are five types of foods to avoid at night and why:

1) Caffeine - Taking drinks rich in caffeine is a bad idea past bedtime. The main culprit here is coffee. When taken as early has 6pm, coffee has been shown to disrupt sleep.

2) Dairy fat - Drinking warm milk before bed can help you sleep better, that's because a sleep-inducing amino acid is present in it. However consuming food rich in high-calorie butter or cheese will really clog your system and reduce the quality of sleep you get.

3) Beans - Eating beans late leads to excessive gas and eventually bloating. This will most certainly disturb your sleep quality and the next day.

4) Oily/Spicy foods - Avoid late eating of oily food they cause indigestion, Spices lead to flatulence and disturbed sleep.

5) Alcohol - Taking alcohol gets you drowsy and in a way bogs you down. It just won't give you the kind of sleep you want to have.

Health Disadvantages of Skin Bleaching

4:15:00 PM
Some people believe lightening their skins make them more beautiful and hence go into bleaching, whitening or toning.

image loading...

TUNDE OGUNTOLA in this piece, writes on the health hazards of skin lightening as it is not just all about skin bleaching but also what comes after.

Bleaching is the process of whitening or lightening any material by the use of chemicals. While, skin bleaching basically involves using chemicals to lighten skin tone or provide an even skin complexion by lessening the concentration of melanin in the human

skin.

Melanin is responsible for giving black

colouring in the human skin. When skin bleaching cream is applied of the body, the effectiveness of the pigment is hindered.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), 77% of Nigerian women use skin-lightening products, the world’s highest percentage. That compares with 59% in

Togo, and 27% in Senegal. The reasons

for this are varied but most people say they use skin-lighteners because they want “white skin” and look more beautiful.

Research shows that it is not only women tho who are obsessed with bleaching their skins. Some men too are involved in the practice.

There are various reasons why people bleach their skins to become whiter than they were before which include among others: low self-esteem, self-hate, peer group and quest for beauty, because in many parts of Africa, lighter-skinned women are considered more beautiful and are believed to be more successful and likely to find marriage.

The numbers of people that dive into bleaching are on the increase, the truth is, skin bleaching comes with hazardous health consequences, which include blood cancers

such as leukemia and cancers of the liver and

kidneys as well as severe skin conditions. It is true that some persons look good when they apply bleaching cream on their skins, but what about the consequences or adverse effects of making use of bleaching cream. There are many dangers associated with

bleaching, be it face whitening or the entire skin bleaching.

The adverse effects of skin bleaching are: vulnerability to body infections, stretch marks exposure, skin weakening, vulnerability to injuries, exposes the veins, intense irritation, redness, pigmentation, vulnerability to body infections.

The growth in skin bleaching is more in some parts of the world like Asia, Africa and in the Middle East. The high demand of skin lightening cream in those parts of the world is because their population is mainly dark skinned. As a result of this, many want to look like the English and hence lightening up their skin colour.

Most hard-core bleachers use illegal ointments containing toxins like mercury, a metal that blocks production of melanin, which gives the skin its colour, but can also be toxic. There are a number of materials or chemicals used in skin bleaching. Few among the many are: mercury, hydroquinone, niacinamide, kojic acid, arbutin, lactic acid, gel, shea butter, topical retinoids, and corticosteroids among others.

Mercury is the very dangerous chemical that medical officials found in the skin lightening creams that sickened the women, the dangers of mercury are several. It can damage the kidneys and wreak havoc on the nervous system.

Symptoms of mercury toxicity include: irritability, headaches, difficulty concentrating, forgetfulness, memory loss, numbness, tingling in the hands, feet or around the lips, insomnia, depression and weight loss.

Hence, if you have experienced any of these symptoms after using an unmarked cream, see your doctor right away.

Even i, Gozkybrain Izuka have even tought if it, wtf i used the cream and got real fair but my fans and friends told me they loved my black, i stopped. Not just because of what they said, i was in my boxing gym then when i punched the wall and hurt myself, it bled and didn't heal (cover up) for 2days which wasn't so when i was black.

Do we really need 8 hours of sleep daily?

4:08:00 PM
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC),

image loading... ...we are often faced with a hazardous public health problem—too little sleep!


The CDC recommends 7-8 hours of sleep a night, a guideline that’s backed by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine and the Sleep Research Society. Insufficient sleep has been tied to health conditions such as weight gain, obesity, diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure , stroke, depression, and an increased risk of death. Despite these risks and recommendations, 1/3 of Americans sleep fewer than 7 hours a night.



A new study, however, suggests that 7-8 hours of sleep a night may not be necessary for optimal health.



"Perhaps You’re Not As Sleep

Deprived as You Think".



Some experts estimate that Americans sleep 2-3 hours fewer than we did before the Industrial Revolution and the advent of artificial light and digital technology.

Computers, smartphones, and television are cited as the primary culprits of insufficient sleep. Sleep experts believe that artificial light from screens and lamps disrupt our circadian rhythm and block the release of melatonin, which brings on sleepiness.

New research published in Current Biology suggests otherwise. Researchers tracked the sleep patterns, light exposure, and temperature exposure of 3 hunter-gatherer societies: the Hadza and San tribes of Africa, and the Tsimané of South America. Analysis showed that all three tribes slept similar amounts (and slept through the night instead of at intervals), despite their geographical distance. The 6½ hours of sleep the hunter-gatherers clocked in on average is fewer than the 7 hours Americans sleep on average.



The hunter-gatherers were also assessed as relatively fit and healthy. Previous research suggests that they aren’t any more physically active than Americans on average, so researchers have ruled out movement as the driving factor in hunter-gatherer health.

Hunter-gatherers either slept outside or in makeshift huts and went to bed 3-4 hours after nightfall. Their only exposure to light was the flame from a small fire. They typically woke up about an hour before sunrise.



Although light exposure didn’t seem to influence sleep patterns, temperature exposure did. They tended to fall asleep once temperatures began to drop, and to wake up once temperatures started to rise, which leads the researchers to theorize that humans evolved to sleep during the coldest hours in order to conserve energy.

In a New York Times article Dr. Watson, the president of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, clarifies that although the hunter-gatherers slept for 6 ½ hours, they were in bed for 7-8, a number that matches estimates for Americans.



“Really it’s just the amount that allows people to wake up feeling refreshed and alert,” he

added.

Perhaps the main takeaway from this latest study is that sleep quality matters far more than quantity. In America, 20-30% of people have chronic insomnia. Among the indigenous people studied, only 2% showed signs of insomnia. Over 9 million Americans take prescription meds for insomnia, which suggests that our sleep quality isn’t up to par. Whether or not artificial light and digital distraction really do play a role in that still needs further investigation.

The #1 Worst Exercise That Ages You Faster

The #1 Worst Exercise That Ages You Faster

According to science, there’s a difference between chronological age and biological age, which means you can be 50 years old and literally have a body of a 40 year old. I’m sure you’ve met someone that not only looks 10 years younger, but has boundless energy and stamina. That being said, I’m sure you’ve seen the exact opposite as well, someone that looks and acts much too OLD for their actual age.So what’s the deal? Is it genetics? I know it sounds like the most reasonable answer. But genetics have very little to do with how fast or slow you age. Believe it or not, YOU have way more control over the aging process than you think. Seriously, it’s not sciencefiction… you CAN slow your aging process, BUT only if you know what todo....And I’m not talking about having to take anti-aging pills or hormone supplements. Nope. This is much saferandmore effective. It’s something you can do on your own.There are countless menand women who have cracked the code on aging and have literally slowed down their biological clock to a crawl. And I’ll show you all the effective anti-aging tips and tricksin just a minute, but firstlet’s look at what happens as you age…1.Your metabolism slows down to a snail’s pace as you age. This makes burning fat and losing weight next to impossible.2.The hormones responsible for all of your youth-like qualities such as healthy skin tone, strong lean muscle, robust energy and insatiable sex drive, start declining more and more each year that goes by. And if you’re not proactive, your youth enhancing hormone levels may drop so low that there isno turning back.3.Aging makes your bones weaker and more brittle by robbing your body ofvital minerals that are essential for strong bones. This iswhy so many elderly people suffer from hip fractures that can lead to even more serious medical complications.4.It’s not just your physical qualities that get negatively affected by aging…your brain suffers as well. Your memory, your abilityto solve problems, and your decision making skills all start to decline and worsen each year.5.And here’s the real kicker: After 40, yourbiological age starts to speed up and age faster than your chronological age! Infact, for every year that passes you can age up to 6 months extra. That means when you turn 42, your body is essentially turning 43…if you keep this up, at 48 your body could be as old as 52!!These are the harsh facts, but it’s the truth. However, it doesn’t needto be this way. YOU have the power to slow aging and prolong your youth. When you apply my anti-aging strategies,you’ll be able to REVERSE the aging process by greatly slowing down yourbiologicalaging well below yourchronologicalaging.Here’s what you can expect when you use some of my anti-aging strategies:1.You’ll re-ignite your metabolism, reprogramming yourbody so you can readily start burning fat right away.2.You’ll reboot your endocrine system, creating a resurgence of youth enhancing hormonesso can get infinitely more energy—and replace flab with lean, strong muscle while boosting your sex drive3.You’ll fortify your body by regaining bone density and building a solid foundation.4.Boost your brain power, enhancing memory and improving your cognitive function making you as sharp as a tack5.You’ll dramatically decelerate your body’s aging process.So, your biological age will age slower than your chronological age—making you look and feel younger each year that passes.Now I need to warn you… what you’re going to read next is probably going to go against everything you’ve ever heard before. BUT that’s because very few people actually know how to slow their aging process. Think about the so-called “experts” giving you anti-aging tips… what do they look like? If they don’t look 10 - 15 years younger than their actual age, do you really think they have the right knowledge? Look, I’m not one to judge by looks alone, but as far as anti-aging is concerned I’m taking advice from people that look the part and live the part…Now, here are the 3 WORST mistakes you mustAVOIDif you want to slow the aging process and increase your metabolism to burn fat, boost your youth enhancing hormones to get more energy & stamina, and build a lean, strong, healthy body:

1. Cardio


Too many people think that cardio is the answerto everything related to weight-loss and fat-loss. And although cardio canbe helpful (if done properly), it does nothing to slow the aging process. In fact, it does the exactopposite!. Doing long frequent cardio sessions will break down your muscles and increase the production of free radicals. These free radicals are nasty little things that damage the cells in your body and accelerate aging.Don’t worry if you’re concerned about your heart health. There is a much more effective way to improve your cardiovascular health, which I’ll cover in just a minute. And here’s the best part: it takes only 1/3 the time of a conventional cardio workout AND it also triggers your youth enhancing hormones instead of those nasty free radicals that age you faster!


2.A low fat fiet


It’s hard to believe that “low-fat” is still a dietary recommendation becausescience has proven that fat is not thecause of weight gain or heart disease. In fact, since the introduction ofthe fat-free diet, the world has gotten more fat and sick than it has ever been before. Fat is not the enemy. Fat does NOT make you fat. In fact, fat is anabsolute mustif you want your body to look and feel younger! Why? Because healthy fats arean essential source ofgoodcholesterol, which is KEY to producing the hormones that enhance your youthful qualities. (Not all cholesterol is bad, by the way —goodcholesterol is a crucial component of healthy skin tissue, making your skin more supple, glowing, and youthful). If you’re following a low-fat diet, you’re depriving your body of the nutrients it needs to slow aging and keep your youth.


3.Yoga



Yoga has been around for thousands of years and it’s still around afterall this time because it’s very effective for things like improving your inner consciousness, mind-body connection and spiritual health. However, it should NOT be considered an effective form of exercise. Sure, some movements are difficult and physically challenging. BUT strictly physiologically speaking,yoga lacks the necessarycomponents to stimulate your body to build lean muscle, burn fat and most importantly… trigger your youth-enhancing hormones to help slow aging. Yoga can improve your flexibility and calm your mind, butit will NOT stimulate your “youth” hormones. What To Do NextIf you want to reverse the aging process, you need to know HOW to trigger your youth-enhancing hormones to slough away old, dead cells while elevating your metabolic process so you can burn away stubborn, flabby fat and replace it with lean, toned muscle.The answer ismetabolic training. Don’t worry, it’s not as technical as it sounds. Let me explain…Metabolic training involves doing certain types of exercises that involve your entire body, so you can activate as many muscles as you can in a short amount of time. It’s completely different from doing traditional isolated body building exercises (like biceps curls or leg curls) where you’re only using one muscle at a time. This form of exercise takes way too long and doesn’t stimulate enough muscle fibers to increase your fat-burning and youth-enhancing hormones. Here’s the key:the moremuscles you’re able to activate at the same time, the more you’ll be able to trigger your youth-enhancing hormones. This is why using exercises that involve your entire body(upper body and lower body) at the same time is crucial.That’s not all…there’s a particular way you want perform these exercises, because doingso will trigger your most effective fat burning hormones, so you can burn off your old excess fat that’s been hanging around way too long.And here’s the best part… you can replace your flabby body parts with lean, toned muscle by simply following these exercise protocols, because not only do they trigger youryouth-enhancing hormones and fat-burning hormones—they also boosts your testosterone. Testosterone is your ultimate lean-muscle building—hormonefor BOTH menandwomen. And much like other hormones, your testosterone levels naturally start to declineafter the age of 40, which is why it’s so difficult to gain lean muscle and maintain that youthful body tone as you get older.Turning back the clock iseasy when you know HOW to trigger the right hormones in your body. And I’ll show you the specifics behind this easy,insanely effectivemethod on the next page. Soon you’ll be able to trigger your youth enhancing hormones, along with your fat-burning and lean-muscle building hormones so you can defy the aging process and look and feel 10 years younger!
