Evening meals- Good or bad?

I start my day with morning cardio & brisk-walks, but I work-out late in the evenings due to evening conference-calls with my US partners.

And often end-up having late dinners. Often I’ve heard that, late-evening dinner leads to demonic hoopla around weight-gain :).

I’ve been on lean-dinner for quite some time, but again, can’t control that urge to hop on mega-taste-bud enhancers around !

Innumerable myths revolve around weight loss. But such myths only fail the purpose, than help. One very common query from people is about eating late evening. “What do I eat in the evenings so that I do not gain weight?” or “Should I stop eating after 6 pm?” or “What is the right time to eat dinner?”

Dinner just like breakfast and lunch is an important meal and it is required to eat enough so that we cover our daily requirements, inclusive of energy requirements. How can you not gain weight by over-eating in the evening?

Noodles cooking & health effects


Noodles are deep fried to make them crunchy and dusted with flour to prevent them from sticking while boiling.

Interesting health game

Most of the times you set your own health resolutions on the beginning of the year and break them as early as possible. All those health gears bought in the kick of the moment, laugh at you. I guess, it’s the problem with motivation and laziness. One or the other reason breaks those health resolutions. It’s little bit difficult to go-on with heath activities in stringent professional life cycle of now a days.

So how a about a game to play with health resolutions itself  ?
Health Month is a new game designed to help you find that ever-elusive motivation that you need to improve your health. This is quite an interesting game about health.

Here’s how you play. It takes place every month. Before the month starts, you choose your own rules that you’d like to follow. These rules are flexible. You can decide to give up drinking altogether, or you can decide to limit yourself to only 30 drinks a week. Everybody’s different, and everybody has a different health riddle that they’re trying to solve for themselves.

I think it’s best to just let you do it how you want to do it, and build tools to learn, build momentum, and keep going.

Try game of health month

Refined Sugar – The Sweetest poison of All…

Refined sugar is lethal when ingested by humans because it provides only that which nutritionists describe as “empty” or “naked” calories. It lacks the natural minerals which are present in the sugar beet or cane.

In addition, sugar is worse than nothing because it drains and leaches the body of precious vitamins and minerals through the demand its digestion, detoxification and elimination makes upon one’s entire

system. So essential is balance to our bodies that we have many ways to provide against the sudden shock of a heavy intake of sugar. Minerals such as sodium (from salt), potassium and magnesium (from vegetables), and calcium (from the bones) are mobilized and used in chemical transmutation; neutral acids are produced which attempt to return the acid-alkaline balance factor of the blood to a more normal state.

Sugar taken every day produces a continuously overacid condition, and more and more minerals are required from deep in the body in the attempt to rectify the imbalance.
