B3 vitamin - Is it really essential ??
B3—also known as niacin, vitamin P, or vitamin PP—helps release energy from nutrients.
It can reduce cholesterol and prevent and treat arteriosclerosis, among other benefits.
Too little B3 can result in pellagra, a disease with symptoms that include sunburn, diarrhea, irritability, swollen tongue, and mental confusion.
Too much B3 can result in liver damage.
Food sources rich in niacin are chicken, salmon, tuna, liver, nuts, dried peas, enriched cereals, and dried beans.
No more than 14-18 mg per day for adults.
Good health...

What is acne?
It typically forms when the lining of the skin duct as well as the sebaceous glands start to work overtime.
With the onset of acne, the lining of the duct actually shed cells which are then transported away to the shell of the skin by the sebum.
Once the duct is blocked, it is when the sebum and cells start to amass, forming a plug known as comedo.
Once the plug stays below the plane of the skin, whiteheads or “closed comedo” occurs.
If the plug boosts and pops out of the skin duct, it is called “open comedo” or blackhead since the top is dark.
As you may know, this is not absolutely dirt, thus it will not wash away.
There are a lot of factors that contribute to the formation of acne, but in terms of its real cause, no one is actually certain as to what exactly causes acne to develop or why it starts in adolescence.
However, factor like hereditary top the list.
It has long been deemed as the most important factor that plays a large role in the acne’s development.
As what most people believe, if a member of your family had acne, there is a great possibility that you will have acne too.
Although acne is very prevalent among teenagers, acne should not control your life.
There are a lot of ways to fight acne, and one of those is maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

Black nail
It's caused by acute trauma, most commonly jamming a finger or thumb in a door, stubbing a toe - or when the wrong sort of nail gets hit with a hammer.
Subungual means 'under the nail', haematoma means bruise.
As with all bruises in time it will disappear.
Sometimes the nail will fall off because of the damage but it usually grows back.
When the build up of pressure under the nail causes pain, making a small hole in the nail relieves it.

Pushing drugs !!
For years, drug companies (pharmaceuticals AKA Big Pharma) have been taking the public for a costly ride and making a killing in the process -- seriously, a lot of people are dying as a result.
In this documentary, find out how Big Pharma's clever politics and marketing schemes are tailored specifically to empty out our bank accounts and force us to sell-off our homes if need be, for drugs that would otherwise cost a few pesos elsewhere in the world.
But it doesn't stop there:
With so much profit potential glistening in their eyes, these companies have little incentive to provide cures.
Rather, they recycle old drugs, modifying them ever so slightly (often resulting in deadly cocktails), for the single purpose of acquiring new patents.
Thus, renewing their monopoly over pricing.
But that's only the beginning - Watch it and see fotr yourself :

Viagra & Heart attack - True story
Both men and women may have less sex or feel less satisfied with sexual activity after heart attack.
A variety of factors may contribute, including side effects of drugs (such as beta blockers), depression, and fears about triggering a new heart attack or dying.
Since sexual activity is a type of physical activity, exercise testing can be used to determine if a person is at any risk of heart problems related to sex.
If a man develops chest pain after taking Viagra, Cialis or Levitra, he should not take nitrates for 24 hours (or longer in some cases).
Instead, the man should rest and wait 10 minutes to see if the pain resolves.
If the pain does not resolve or if the chest pain is severe, he should immediately call for emergency medical services

Garlic for cholesterol reduction
According to some studies, garlic might decrease blood levels of total cholesterol by a few percentage points.
Other studies, however, suggest that it might not be as beneficial as once thought. It might also have significant side effects and/or interactions with certain medicines.
Garlic might prolong bleeding and blood clotting time, so garlic and garlic supplements should not be consumed prior to surgery and should not be taken with blood-thinning medicines such as warfarin.

Kids’ Snack - Tips
Instead of sugary sweets or chips, make it easier for them to have a healthy snack time.
The keys are to make healthful snacks in your house visible, convenient and effortless.
Keep fresh fruit on the counter where kids can see it.
Wash and cut up vegetables ahead of time, so they’re ready to eat.
Store them in see-through containers or clear plastic bags so kids can see what’s inside.
Put nutrient-rich foods where they can be easily reached, like on lower shelves in the refrigerator, pantry or cabinet.
Keep cookies and chips in cabinets on higher shelves where they will be less convenient to reach and out of sight.
A little kitchen “arranging” will encourage kids to eat a nutritious snack and they’ll think it was their idea

What are flavonoids ??
Flavonoids are water-soluble plant pigments that have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that can counteract damage to tissues.
Students from UCLA made the conclusion based on a study of the dietary habits of smokers with and without lung cancer.
The flavonoids that appeared to be most effective were catechin (found in strawberries and green and black teas), kaempferol (Brussels sprouts and apples) and quercetin, (beans, onions and apples).
Flavonoids may protect against lung cancer by stopping the development of blood vessels that tumors need to grow and spread.
They may also stop cancer cells from growing, allowing a naturally programmed cell death, or apoptosis, to occur.
