Even if you eat a lot, if your diet is not adequate, your body will ask you to give it quality nutrients. The way you express it is to cause a state of restlessness and a desire to eat. Here we will explain the three most common causes why, very often, you have anxiety for food. If the first thing that provokes you is a cake, ice cream, crispy fries and lots of chocolate, it’s not hunger: it’s anxiety.

Causes of food anxiety

1. Consume bad carbohydrates

3 causes of food anxiety you should know

Which ones are good and which ones are bad? You should consume good carbohydrates and be careful with the amount you consume. But what does that mean? Many of the foods we consume are processed. This means that most of its nutrients (minerals, vitamins and enzymes) are eliminated at the time of processing. This can generate that our body suffers a deficit of nutrients and therefore, demand more food.

Refined grains such as rice and wheat with which bread is made, desserts and pasta are an example of what we should avoid in our daily diet. When you eat refined flours and sugar your body will ask for more. This is because this type of food is processed more quickly and the body secretes more insulin.

That’s why when we choose carbohydrates, we must choose the most natural and high in fiber. For example: oats, whole foods, fruits, vegetables, legumes. These are the ones the body needs.

Carbohydrates should not be eliminated, because they are the biggest suppliers of energy in terms of physical and mental activity. You have to eat the right ones and in the necessary amounts.

2. Spending many hours without eating

Food is the fuel of the body. Eating makes people feel more active and healthier. Spending more than four hours without eating causes the hormone that stimulates the appetite to rise and causes you to eat excessively.

Try to divide the meals into five daily and eat every three or four hours. This keeps your blood glucose levels stable and, therefore, helps you control your cravings for food.

You have to know how to eat and do it in a balanced way. It is key to learn to combine foods between proteins, carbohydrates and vegetables. This mixture will provide everything the body needs: nutrients, energy and minerals.

3. Stress

Emotions play a fundamental role in the way we feed ourselves. Many people eat without being hungry. They do it to fill emotional gaps, because they feel lonely, are bored or suffer from stress.

Other times stress is caused by workloads. People need to reward themselves after an intense day’s work. In these cases the best trophy is a chocolate candy, filled with custard and covered with Swiss meringue, or any other sweet.

You have to know that deficiencies, dissatisfactions or personal problems are not resolved through food. No sweet can calm emotional hunger. Cultivating the mind, preparing yourself in the professional field, nurturing your spirituality and exercising your body constitute a form of nutrition.

The secret to controlling anxiety is to improve the quality of your diet. Your daily diet should include food with a high nutritional value, because it provides more nutrients and fewer calories.

It is important that you increase your fiber intake and drink a lot of water. Sometimes thirst is often confused with the desire to eat. When you have anxiety, drink water and wait for the sensation to disappear. You can control food anxiety naturally with infusions that help control appetite such as green tea or maté herb.

You can also practice other activities that are not related to food and help you avoid binge eating. Meditating, walking, doing yoga or listening to music are perfect for this purpose.

6 ways to protect your home from air pollution https://lasantehumaine.org/2018/07/20/6-ways-to-protect-your-home-from-air-pollution/ https://lasantehumaine.org/2018/07/20/6-ways-to-protect-your-home-from-air-pollution/#respond Sat, 21 Jul 2018 01:17:33 +0000 https://dvz.bqv.mybluehost.me/website_d6885d46/?p=1728 We live in a world that suffers more every day the effects of pollution. The air we breathe, as well as the water we drink, is less and less pure. However, we can apply some suggestions to make it less harmful: we tell you how to protect your home from air pollution.

The air pollution has reached such a point that there is practically no corner in the world that is not affected by it. In fact, the World Health Organization (WHO) warns in several publications about the consequences of urban air pollution and indoor air pollution.

Origins of pollution

In the cities we can differentiate, as we see, between the pollution of the environment, or external, and the urban. WHO lists the following sources for the gases that pollute the air we breathe every day:

  • Inefficient combustion of fossil fuels or biomass: this includes waste from cars, ovens and wood stoves.
  • Rudimentary techniques of heating and lighting.
  • Chemicals from building materials and cleaning products.
  • Homes located very close to pollution sources, such as factories.

Here we can also add the dust that comes in from the outside and the waste of the pets, like their little hairs.

6 ways to protect your home from air pollution

Luckily, we have certain ways to avoid this harmful contamination. The good thing about these recommendations is that they are easily applicable, do not hesitate to put them into practice!

1. Place plants

the best solution you can consider to protect your home from air pollutionYes, it is the best solution you can consider to protect your home from air pollution. As is known, the plants have the ability to absorb carbon dioxide present in the air we breathe and replace oxygen.

However, we must have certain qualms in the cases of people allergic to pollen ; in them, the effects can be counterproductive.

2. Use natural products

As the WHO mentions, cleaning products contain chemicals that are harmful to our health. Much more in the case of aerosols, which pollute the air much more.

Therefore, a very important recommendation is to appeal to natural products. The list of those that you can take advantage of is very broad; its star protagonists, however, are sodium bicarbonate, borax, white vinegar, lemon, among others.

3. Prevents the accumulation of dust and other substances

There are two fundamental places in your home that can accommodate a large number of substances threatening health. It’s about the air conditioning filter and the carpet.

It is advisable to change the air conditioning filter at least once a year. With regard to the carpet, you should aspire it frequently ; If you moisten it to wash it or if it gets wet by accident, try to dry it immediately. If you do not, the bacteria will spread all over the place.

In the case of dwellings inhabited by people with respiratory difficulties, the measures should be even more extreme.

4. Do not light aromatic candles or smoke

Often, it is we ourselves who generate the air pollution in our home. If you really want to protect your home from air pollution, you’d better not use scented candles- or at least not for long periods of time- let alone smoke indoors. Both products contain highly toxic substances for the body.

5. Acquire an air purifier

Acquire an air purifierLogically, if you want to protect your home from air pollution, nothing is more effective than a purifier. This device has filters that are capable of absorbing almost 99% of the polluting particles. 

Thanks to this simple artifact, your environments will be purer, cleaner and smell better. Undoubtedly, a worthwhile investment.

6. Replace wood burning fireplaces and stoves

These elements have two negative consequences. The first is that natural resources are burned to generate heat; This, in addition to being harmful to the environment, favors the appearance of harmful substances in the air. On the other hand, the remains of ashes are scattered all over the place; you will not be able to avoid breathing them.

Air pollution is a central issue that affects 9 out of 10 people in the world. From our humble space, we can take small preventive actions.

In short, these are actions that can save lives. As recently reported by WHO, 7 million people die annually from the harmful effects of polluted air substances. For that, each one from the place that touches him.

One month before a heart attack, the body begins to warn you with these 8 symptoms https://lasantehumaine.org/2018/07/20/one-month-before-a-heart-attack-symptoms/ https://lasantehumaine.org/2018/07/20/one-month-before-a-heart-attack-symptoms/#respond Fri, 20 Jul 2018 20:01:47 +0000 https://dvz.bqv.mybluehost.me/website_d6885d46/?p=1722 There are health problems that reverse some seriousness . Among them, undoubtedly, would be heart problems. Sometimes simply by listening to our body we could avoid health problems such as a heart attack.

And, even if you do not believe it, a month before the body is produced, it starts to warn you. These are the eight symptoms that you can notice. If you are in this situation, see your doctor as soon as possible.

1. Tiredness

TirednessThe tiredness is a problem we can notice often without the symptom of something so serious. However, we must pay attention to this. This symptom as prior to a heart attack occurs especially in women.

It would be observed that it is a type of fatigue that is not associated with physical exercise or with mental effort. In addition we will notice that it increases at the end of the day.

This makes even the simplest tasks a real effort.

2. Abdominal pain

Abdominal pain, especially in the upper part of the abdomen, as well as nausea, even with an empty stomach or stomach swelling, appear days before a heart attack.

This is because stomach upset is related to a heart attack. This type of pain will see that it would intensify in the case of doing physical activity.

3. Sleep problems

Sleep problemsSleep problems may also be related to a heart condition. Insomnia is among the symptoms of an increased risk. Generally it would be accompanied with anxiety and bad concentration. This is usually given more in women.

If you have heart problems, it will be harder to fall asleep. Also, you will wake up at night for no reason.

4. Restful breathing

Agitated breathing is another symptom that occurs one or several months before the heart attack occurs.

Most times it is accompanied by dizziness and shortness of breath. This is because this aspect makes breathing difficult.

5. Hair loss

Falling hair fast is among the symptoms prior to cardiac arrest. It occurs mostly in men, but can also occur in women.

Also, keep in mind that this hair loss is related to a high level of cortisol. When the fall is associated with this heart problem, it usually occurs in the area of ​​the crown of the head.

6. Heart rhythm

The interrupted heart rate is another symptom that we should not overlook. In this case it is more typical of men, while in women it is accompanied by panic and anxiety.

These appear without warning and can manifest in different ways, such as arrhythmias or tachycardia.

  • In case of diseases such as atherosclerosis, the tachycardia can appear after physical exercise.
  • Usually, you will see that these symptoms last 1 to 2 minutes.
  • In the event that it lasts for more than 2 minutes, dizziness and a feeling of weakness may appear.

7. Excess sweat

Excess sweatExcessive sweating, both day and night, is also a symptom related to a heart attack. This signal is more frequent in the case of women.

Be careful because many women think they are signs of menopause. However, this also occurs among men.

It is a cold and sticky sweat, very similar to the one we have when we catch a cold. It appears regardless of the temperature or physical activity that the person performs.

This sweating is so strong that, if we go to bed, we will see how, in the morning, the sheets are wet.

8. Pain in the chest

Both the type and intensity of chest pain is very different between men and women.

For example, among men it is a very frequent symptom, but in women only this symptom is observed in 30% of cases.

  • This type of pain in the chest can come from the arms. The most usual thing is that it is from the left, although it is not always like that.
  • Pain in the lower jaw, throat, shoulders, neck and stomach is also common.

2. Have many places to store

The drawers, trunks, furniture and shelves are ideal to have an orderly house. In addition, the great advantage of having everything in its proper place is that, when you have the hard task of sweeping, vacuuming, washing or waxing the floors, you should not be picking up objects throughout the house.

4. One activity per day

We always have two minutes available in which we must ‘make time’. It can be before an outing, before going to nap or while waiting for the water to warm up for coffee.

In those empty moments, pick up the broom without thinking and sweep the floor. You can also mop the furniture with a cloth quickly. Thus, by attending to a small question every day, your house will always look ready.

Of course at some point you will need to clean up a little more thoroughly; however, when the time comes, you will notice that many parts of the house are already clean.Cleaning Bathroom

5. The bathroom, fundamental

For the bathroom practically apply all the tricks discussed above.You should not leave items lying around, try to clean a little each day. As we pointed out in the first advice, you can even do it while you shower or after the bath.

This room is, in fact, one of the places in the house that we most need to see clean. The reason is simple: it is very exposed to dirt and bacteria and we can not avoid seeing it several times a day. You already know: keeping it clean is easier than carrying the task of cleaning it for many days.

Surely there will be many other problems that you will have to deal with: scale, stains, dirty carpets, scratches, etc. The reality is that certain issues are inevitable and we must do them even if we hate them.

However, these small cleaning tricks that you should know, can make your task considerably easier. Put them into practice and evaluate the results!

Easily remove embedded remains

If a daily or more exhaustive hygiene is not carried out, when we start to clean it, we may find remains and dirt adhering to it.

Use dish soap

The liquid soap we use to wash dishes can be one of your great allies to get a dreamy clean.

It has very good properties to remove grease and leave all surfaces free of dirt. It is not a corrosive product and is completely suitable for the use of electronic devices.

Heat a glass of water with a spoonful of liquid soap; Once hot clean with that mixture the rest of the appliance. The hot water will make the task much easier.

Uses baking soda

Baking soda has great uses in many aspects of our lives. It is a product that can be used both in cleaning and to improve our state of health.

To use it to clean our microwave, moisten a sponge and sprinkle some bicarbonate. Go over and rub the most compromised areas and you will see how the dirt is going away instantly.

Aromatize your microwave with water and lemon

Nothing better than a microwave oven that smells good. To get it you can squeeze the lemon juice and mix it with water or introduce the slices of the lemon in a glass with part of water.

Squeeze the lemon in 250 milliliters of water and introduce it. Heat at full power for 5 minutes. Let the steam moisten the entire interior.

Something that will undoubtedly be very innovative.

In contrast to the trend of the decade of the fifties and sixties. They have returned the frames of small dimensions typical of the nineties. They do not really protect the eye from sunlight, but yes, they are very  chic. In fact, all celebrities are betting to use very often this type of sunglasses. From Gigi Hadid to the Kardashian- Jenner sisters .

3 surprising uses of ammonia in the home https://lasantehumaine.org/2018/06/29/uses-of-ammonia-in-the-home/ https://lasantehumaine.org/2018/06/29/uses-of-ammonia-in-the-home/#respond Fri, 29 Jun 2018 05:10:31 +0000 https://dvz.bqv.mybluehost.me/website_d6885d46/?p=1512 Ammonia is a chemical compound that is found as a colorless gas. It is characterized by its strong, penetrating and unpleasant odor. This gas dissolves easily in water and is thus commercially obtained for domestic use.

It has several uses: industrial, in the agri-food field, at the pharmaceutical level and in the home, mainly as an element for cleaning, since it is a very good disinfectant and eliminates the most rebellious fats and stains.

Of course, something we must keep in mind is that you should avoid inhaling, as it can cause irritation in the eyes and throat. Direct contact with the skin can also lead to injuries and its intake can be fatal.

Among the advantages that it presents, it is extremely soluble in water, as we have already mentioned, which facilitates its use, and which degrades very easily in nature, since it is used as a nutrient for plants and trees. Due to this last property it is also used as fertilizer.

Uses of ammonia in the home

This product has multiple uses in the home, so many that will surprise. But, before knowing the great variety of tasks for which it can be used, it is advisable to take certain precautions, since it is a very strong chemical.

  • Ventilate the environments;  Before using it, windows and ventilation ducts must be opened.
  • Prevent children and pets from being in place during their use, as they are more sensitive to their vapors.
  • Do not mix it with detergents or bleach, because when combined they produce a chemical reaction that produces very toxic gases.
  • It is recommended not to use it on waxed surfaces, as it may damage them.
  • Always use gloves when handling ammonia.

1. Ammonia as a degreaser

The most common use of this product is to eliminate dirt, since it dissolves accumulated fat and makes it more soluble in water; For this reason it is eliminated more easily. It can be used in multiple places, such as:

  • Kitchen cleaning: easily removes the grease that accumulates in it. It is advisable to use it diluted in water and, after removing the dirt, give one pass with a damp cloth only with water. It can be used in pots, crockery, glasses, tiles and other kitchen elements.
  • Ovens: can be used to eliminate the accumulated fat and the remains of burned food that are in this complicated place to clean.
  • Glass and windows: they can be stained with oil, dirt and residues, especially areas where smog predominates . Ammonia cleans deeply these surfaces and also leaves no scratches.
  • Wooden furniture: it is used to remove grease and dirt in this type of material. It is advisable to use it diluted in water so that it does not damage the wood.
  • Soils: it is used both to remove grease from floors and to disinfect them thanks to its antibacterial properties. It is widely used in sanatoria and operating rooms.
  • Baths: it helps to remove traces of soap and, fundamentally, it eliminates the fungi that accumulate due to the high humidity of the place.

2. To eliminate stains and odors

Helps eliminate stubborn stains and dirt from garments. It is advisable to use a small amount to avoid damaging them. It also helps eliminate odors, such as moisture or mold from the tissues. It is mainly used in:

  • Carpets or rugs with some complicated stain.
  • Clothing, with extreme care.
  • Repasadores and towels.
  • Footwear that does not admit washing.

3. Help eliminate cockroaches in the home

This product will help to scare away cockroaches in a very simple way. Only half a cup of ammonia should be diluted in 5 liters of water and scrubbed with this mixture. The smell of this product is so strong that the cockroaches will not return. It is advisable to throw the liquid in the pipes of the kitchens once it was used. In this way it will end with those who are in it.

It is surprising how many uses can be given to ammonia in the home.  But remember, always with caution and responsibility, since it is a strong chemical substance.

People have very particular and unique tastes; that’s why, if you want to change the decoration of your room with a quick gesture, a duvet cover can be your best way out. The Nordic covers are ideal for the bed to have notoriety and be the protagonist of our bedroom.

In the decoration magazines where bedrooms are shown, the look quickly goes to the beautiful beds and their colors. The duvet covers are the best option to make your bed look fantastic not only in winter. But throughout the year.

What’s the use of a duvet cover?

The Nordic covers have two main functions: the first is to wrap up and provide warmth. And the second is to give a different touch to the bedroom and contribute to its aesthetics. In fact, it is one of the options that people use to get a room cozy and personalized.

Then we tell you the aspects that you should have in mind when you go to buy your duvet cover.

Tips for buying duvet covers

We have to find the balance between a quality product, the practicality and the desired filling.  To achieve this, keep in mind the following premises:

Colors

Think well about what you want to convey. Keep in mind the style and decoration you have in your room.  Try not to clash with the walls or furniture to visually be more attractive. Today you can find many colors and shapes.

Nordic stuffing

The number of threads determines the calorific value. Always keep in mind the climate of your area and the humidity. Living in a beach area is not the same as living in a dry place surrounded by mountains.

We recommend looking for a weight greater than 200 grams if the weather is very cold, while for the warmer places you can choose those of 100 grams.

Types of Nordic filling:

There are different types of fillers; Choose the one that best suits you and your needs.

  • Goose down. It is extracted from the chest of the geese and ducks and it is said that it is the one that shelters and isolates the cold.
  • Feathers. This stuffing is characterized by feathers of geese and ducks. But with the difference that, with respect to the down, the feathers are whole, that is, they maintain the species of rod that joins them. On the other hand, goose down is finer.
  • Polyester or cotton If you are allergic to feathers, choose a synthetic padding, either polyester or cotton. They heat a little less but they are very practical and cheaper.
  • Wool. Opt for wool to keep the heat well. It is an option that lies between the quality of down and synthetic quilts.

Reversible covers

Nothing better than a cover that is beautiful by the two sides; You can change your position when the time changes. Find an option that is suitable for the summer months and for the winter months.

Curtains and upholstery

If you are redecorating your bedroom, also take into account the curtains. The color of your furniture and even the floor.

If you create a harmony in terms of the color palette, your bedroom will be much more attractive and inviting and will invite you to stay in it.

Own style

Let yourself be carried away by your tastes and choose the duvet covers that you like the most. It will be you who has to see them every day; Ask for an opinion if you need it, but follow your impulses to make the best purchase.

And remember, look for quality duvet covers, with soft fabrics that are pleasant to the touch. The quality is important so that they do not lose their colors with the washings and always give the feeling that they are new.

In addition, as we have already said, the duvet covers can be used both for clothing and for decorating the room. In fact, there are people who use Nordics only to cover the bed and leave it well dressed. But at bedtime they do not use them.

Thus, you can continue using the duvet cover with the filling during the summer months so that the room continues to have a better presence, but remove it when you go to bed.

If you still do not have a case that fills your room with color, what are you waiting for?

One of the inmates, Nick Kelton, recalled the June 23 incident saying: “He just fell down. It seemed like a performance. He could have died right there. “

When the inmates realized that something was wrong, they started shouting for help. As nobody came, they left the detention room. They did not find a pulse. Then they made a lot of noise, shouting and knocking on doors, which caused the deputies to go down the stairs and respond, according to WFAA. The top officers in the court thought there was a fight.

Moment when the group of inmates in Weatherford, Texas, left their detention room to come to the assistance of the guard. The eight prisoners who were behind a locked door on June 23, help the officer who collapsed after joking with them.
When the deputies realized what happened, they took the prisoners and began the CPR in the officer.

Ryan Speegle, Parker County Sheriff Sergeant, took the inmates to the waiting room again, “after seeing them standing next to the guard,” he said in his report.

Speegle told WFAA: “He had the keys. I had a weapon. It could have been an extremely bad situation. “

The deputies performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation and paramedics attended to the man, the station reported. His pulse returned.

Kelton described the WFAA guard as “a good man”. He said: “I saw him die twice. It never crossed my mind not to help if you have a gun or a plaque. I will help you. “

Captain Mark Arnett told the station that the guard was saved by the prisoners. The guard, who has not been identified, is expected to return to work next week.

The prisoners observe how the life of the guard returns.
Since then, the detention cell where the men were held has been reinforced.
