Thyroid Tonic Recipe....................

Thyroid Tonic Recipe:


6 carrots, 1 cucumber, 10 radishes, 1/2 lemon
Juice together all the ingredients and drink immediately.
Radishes contain a substance called Raphanin. This is what Wikipedia says about Raphanin… “Given that Raphanin can be chiefly responsible for keeping the production of thyroxine and calcitonin in normal balance, in Russia, radishes have long been used for treating both types of thyroid problems.”
Carrots contain large amount of beta-carotene which is the precursor for vitamin A in the body. If you are low on vitamin A, your ability to produce thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) is limited.
B-complex vitamins are required for good thyroid function. Cucumbers contain B vitamins, so they are a good choice when trying to nourish the thyroid glands.

Nix that noise..................

If  you live in a noise-filled environment you can get stress and blood pressure.

Use sound-blocking headsets and foam ear plugs with a Noise-Reduction Rating[NRR] of 33. They block out about 15 decibels. That means the jackhammer across the street emitting 100 decibels will tone down to a bearable 85 - not quiet,but far less destructive.

Try taking lipoic acid and ask your doc if you can take two baby aspirin and vitamin E with mixed tocopherols.They reduce inflammation,protect auditory and other nerves and reduce damage from stress hormones.

Fit in some active de-stressing.To deal with noise-induced stress,meditate in the morning for 5 to 10 minutes and during the daymake time for both aerobics and strength training.

SLEEP HYGIENE.....................................

Sleeping is a vital exercise in our day to day life.............

Lifestyle: Work schedules and parties leave few hours for sleep.Illness,pain from injuries and sleep disorders can also disrupt one's sleep.

Stress: Worrying about that new job,safety of children or the exam in the morning? Instead of getting the sleep needed to face tomorrow's challenges,you toss and turn,sit up and pound your pillow,maybe even get up and pace the floor.

Noise: Sudden noises like a door slamming,a telephone ringing can jolt a sleeper into wakefulness.If the noise is constant and loud,move to another room.

Temperature: Research suggests that room temperature above 75 degree causes restlessness and affect mental and physical health.If you sleep with the air conditioner on,make sure it is set at a normal temperature.

Scents: Scented candles help us relax,but not to sleep.Using air spray,fresh flowers or scents in the bedroom is not advisable as the body cant handle them when we try to sleep.

Bed: The mattress should  be firm enough to give you support.

SLEEP HYGIENE IS AS IMPORTANT, IF NOT MORE, TO LEAD A HEALTHY LIFE..............

NEERAAGARAM

Neer + Aagaram - Water based food. This is the diet in most of the south indian villagers and farmers house which keep them energized throughout the day and this keeps them cool as well as they have work in the scorching sun throughout the day. They purposely make more rice than needed so that they can use the leftover rice to make this for next day morning breakfast.



This is the best natural summer coolant for breakfast. The crunch in the onions and the hot spicy chillies makes it the best combination. This is mostly had for breakfast and it is very much filling that you will not feel hungry for the next 4-5 hours for sure.

So what are you still waiting for?! Dont throw the leftover rice and enjoy this cool neeragaram.
