If the wound doesn’t heal, a mixture of honey and fish oil (in equal parts) is to be prepaired. Apply directly on the wound, cover with sterile dressing and after 3-4 hours, rinse it off with chamomile tea. This ointment restores the elasticity of the muscle fibers, stimulates growth of young tissue and helps regeneration of it.

Change the dressing after ten hours and clean the skin burn (or boil) with chamomile tea and plantain (infusion of 2+2 tablespoons of plants per liter of water).

Therefore, it is recommended to use the following mixture for 21 days : two tablespoons of dark bee honey combined with a teaspoon of pollen and 20 drops nettle tincture (available in any Plafar store). This mixture will be divided in two parts : one part will be taken in the morning, around 10 a.m., while the other part will be taken in the afternoon, around 5 p.m. For children under the age of 10, half of the recommended amount will be taken in the morning.



Gastritis

For gastritis and stomach hyperacidity, it is recommmended to use acacia honey diluted with warm water and taken 90-120 minutes before meals. It reduces stomach acidity and it quickly absorbed, canceling „burns” (one teaspoon in 100 ml of warm water). Mountain honey will be diluted in cold water (one tablespoon per 100 ml water) and it will be taken 90-120 minutes before meals. The temperature of the water used for diluting bee honey is very important.

Fish meat is not only healthy but can be used to prepare very tasty and easy recipes. Most of us are used to keeping fish away in the kitchen due to the fear that it is too complicated to prepare. To demystify food fish, we should choose some simple recipes and delicious fish. First of all, here are some tips on how to choose and maintain fresh fish. The smell is very important, if the fish has a sweet smell, it is fresh out of the water and if the smell is pungent and very strong, it is clear that the fish is no longer fresh.

Fish looks fresh when his eyes are clear, the meat is firm and has no brown spots. As a rule of storage, the fish should not be kept for a very long time after you have purchased it fresh; it can be held a day or two in the refrigerator, and then you should freeze it. Fish meat is healthy and will not make you gain weight. Carp is an easily available fish and it is very easy to prepare. So you need about a kg of fish, 150 g oil, spices and herbs.

What could actually be unhealthy at a celebration? The joy, fun, travel and holidays? None of this, if you do not have harmful habits such as unhealthy eating habits at a feast. Top blacklisted are copious meals, alcohol abuse and of course lack of physical exercises. It is unfortunate that healthy holiday recipes are such rare phenomena.



You should know that you can avoid a lot of trouble if you take action wisely. The first thing you should do would be quitting any quick weight losing diets. It is not the time to choose a quick and drastic weight-loss diet, just to fit into the dress ready for the New Year’s. If you do this, once you quit the diet, you will gain more kilograms than you had when you started the diet. All you can do in this period is to choose your foods carefully, depending on the calories and glycemic index.

But you should know that it is not enough to reduce caloric rations so that you will get results. Therefore, do not forget after the holidays to schedule you to a nutritionist. Also do not interrupt sport! If you regularly attend a fitness room, do not take the break in holiday period. If you do, you could wake up with more with some extra weight the next year.

Also be cautious and make your supply of all medicines during the holidays. Small medical kits at home must be up to date with everything you need. So you will not be put in the situation of the search for a pharmacy open on the night of Christmas or New Year’s for a drug. If you wonder what you should eat for holidays or which are some healthy holiday recipes, you should choose food menus consisting of light ingredients, without much fat, but rich in vitamins and antioxidants. This way you will not jeopardize your health. Therefore, choose the holiday menus, but not only.

Also try salads, fruit and vegetable based meals. Broccoli, carrots, cucumbers, cauliflower, green beans, peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes are highly recommended by doctors. They should be consumed two to three times a day. In addition these salads are not fattening, especially if you avoid putting in more oil, Mayonnaise and other fatty dressings and E numbers.

You should enjoy your holidays and breathe fresh air! If you have problems with your immune system, you are advised to strengthen it with natural products: tea, fruit, and natural remedies. You should not totally avoid tradition dishes and holiday recipes, but still pork stakes and sausages, in the opinion of specialists should be eaten slowly and in small quantities. Cookies, cakes and pies? There are all worth eating, but with moderation. Dietitians included in the food pyramid fruits, which can be consumed two to three times a day. So, eat apples, bananas, oranges, grapefruit, pineapple and kiwi. Eat them even on the preserved because they have fewer calories than home-made cakes.

Cream of wheat is a well known breakfast cereal, but few of us know what are the benefits and the disadvantages of daily breakfast based on this type of cereal. It is indeed easy to prepare and depending on your preferences, you might consider it very tasty, but the question is “Is cream of wheat healthy?”.



What is the most recommended breakfast? Well, experts advise us to choose in the morning o bowl of cereals with low fat milk. Keep in mind though that whole grain, for instance is a way better choice than the sweetened regular chocolate cereals for kids you see every day on the local store’s shelves. Cream of wheat is also a great alternative for your morning meal.

One of the major advantages considered our modern lifestyles would be the fact that preparing this breakfast will take only about five minutes or even less. You all know that this type of breakfast is the perfect choice when you are in a hurry to get to work, but which are its attributes when it comes to health? Is cream of wheat healthy?

If you have not heard about this breakfast, you should know that cream of wheat is a type of breakfast cereals made out of ground wheat or farina. The cereals are prepared using boiling water. They will be added into the hot water until the composition gets thicker. You can also add flavorings or fruit, fruit syrups or juices of any kind. Another very important advantage is the fact that cream of wheat is very low in calories.

So if you have weight losing goals it may seem like a great breakfast idea since it also has no fats or sodium. This also reduces the risk of developing a heart condition and improves the health of your heart. In terms of nutrition the only real detriment would be the fact that cream of wheat contains no fiber. During the processing of wheat the natural fibers contained are removed.

Because its lack of fiber, it increases glucose and insulin levels at a fast rate, reason for which this type of cereal is under no circumstances recommended to  diabetics or persons with heart diseases.  A reason for which cream of wheat is indeed a healthy choice for breakfast is the fact that it contains numerous vitamins such as vitamins A and B, and it has also been enriched with iron.

As a conclusion, I must say that I strongly believe cream of wheat is a great alternative for those who are used to eating muffins and doughnuts in the morning. It is a viable source of vitamins, but its lack of fibers can damage our healthy condition without even noticing. Our overall health though depends on many factors, and who knows, maybe cream of wheat is the perfect breakfast choice for you but I think that if you can choose you should go for the traditional breakfasts including cereals rich in fiber like oatmeal.

The respiratory system, as you probably know is one of our main life-sustaining systems. Despite this fact, more and more persons neglect its health, despite regretting this fact when diseases like asthma occur. Keeping our lungs and our entire respiratory system healthy is vital to our existence and has an incredible impact on our lifestyles.



Here are a few “tips” on how to maintain your body and blood ventilation system healthy and improve its performances. Besides the well-known fact that the immune and the digestive system benefit from a positive and healthy life because of the consumption of fruits and vegetables, there is evidence showing that such a diet will be beneficial for lung health, can help alleviate chronic diseases and prevent some specific diseases.

American researchers have proven by research that the consumption of fruits like apples, pears, grapes, apricots or vegetables like carrots, tomatoes or potatoes, in moderate quantities, has a positive impact on the lungs and the whole respiratory system. Effects are visible even in the case of hardcore smokers, and persons with a healthy lifestyle that follow a fruit diet present no risks to diseases like asthma.

Similar efforts of researchers from the U.S. and UK have been undertaken in this respect, and discovered that a diet rich in fruits protects the body against respiratory system diseases. Serving the fruits in at least 5 servings (at least 5 fruits - apples, pears, apricots) with a combined weekly moderate consumption of vegetables (tomatoes, celery, cabbage, etc..) improves lung activity and reduces the risk of asthma.
A study undertaken by researchers at the University of Auckland comes to emphasize the role that vitamin D has in lung health. Professor Peter Black, one of the study's authors, said that the difference between the lungs with high levels of vitamin D and of those with low levels is substantial. "[The difference] is higher than that of lung function in case of former smokers and non-smokers," he said.

"Low levels of vitamin D are associated with conditions such as osteoporosis, high blood pressure, diabetes and cancer. Our study now shows that vitamin D could influence lung function and that a higher concentration is associated with healthy lungs.

As a conclusion, I think that it is safe to say that the health of our respiratory system should be more emphasized, because it is being more and more neglected. If we look at our daily life and the things that we eat, we should, in many cases think twice before eating junk food or lighting a cigarette. Keeping a healthy respiratory system isn’t hard and it doesn’t require huge changes in anyone’s diet, so anybody can adopt a healthy lifestyle in terms of their lungs. If you are a smoker, quit, if you are a non-smoker, eat healthy. Basically, it all resumes to that.

Although chocolate is eaten with pleasure, consumption of chocolate cocoa / dark chocolate has been shown to affect circulatory system in a beneficial way . Other studies were performed to demonstrate its anticancer effects by stimulating the brain, inhibits the cough and diarrhea centers.



Despite the possible benefits , the excessive consumption of chocolate can promote obesity and development of diabetes. A study presented by BBC showed that during the melting chocolate in the mouth, the human brain is growing electrical activity and heart rate increases more than during a passionate kiss and the feeling lasts four times longer.

Recent studies have shown some potential benefits to our health due to the bittersweet chocolate and cocoa consumption. Cocoa is a powerful natural antioxidant, protecting against oxidation of lipo-proteins, more than other foods or drinks. Some trials have also shown the effects of reducing blood pressure and improving blood vessel dilation due to increased traffic as a result of daily consumption chocolate.

However consumption of milk chocolate, white chocolate, milk chocolate, fatty chocolate may have negative effects on your bodies in terms of the fat tissue and weight. Acting differently from other unsaturated fats, stearic acid does not increase blood cholesterol levels. Consumption of chocolate in relatively large quantities does not increase cholesterol levels, but in the same time it is not very indicated because of the large amount of sugar that your body must process.

Popular culture has given chocolate romantic powerful aphrodisiac properties, often being associated with sensual pleasures caused by its consumption. Also the composition of fat and sugar such as chocolate stimulates the hypothalamus, inducing a pleasant feeling. Although serotonin has a stimulating effect, in large amounts it is converted to melatonin which leads to a reduction in terms of sexual activity.

Results obtained in the laboratory show the anticancer properties of flavonoids, contained in cocoa beans and cocoa has. Mars Incorporated, an American confectionery company, annually spends considerable sums on flavonoids research. The company is in negotiations with a pharmaceutical company to market a product based on the flavonoids components synthesized from cocoa beans. According to the research sponsored by Mars Inc.. Harvard University, University of California and several research laboratories at universities in Europe, drugs cocoa could help treat diabetes, dementia and other diseases.

Some studies even indicate that besides the fact that chocolate is healthy, it also reduces persistent cough. The active ingredient in combating cough, theobromine is a treatment three times more effective than codeine, the main drug used for cough. The chocolate has a local calming and re- hydration action of the lining of the throat.

The major concern of nutritionists is that, although the consumption of chocolate may positively affect the prevalence of biomarkers that can reduce the incidence of cardiovascular disease, consuming large quantities also has its downfall, in the shape of obesity and in rare cases diabetes. To conclude, chocolate may have a dual effect, promoting obesity, but in the same time offering the benefits that flavonoid offer to our bodies.

Whether you are at work, in town or at home watching TV, the temptation to take a small snack may be more powerful than your plans to sum up only the three meals per day. You might be disappointed that you have breached the rules of your recommended diet, but you the simplest solution will significantly improve your health. There are many healthy food snacks that you can choose and eat as often as you want without any danger.



Of course, each of us has different nutritional needs. While some people prefer to stick to the three meals per day, without suffering from hunger, for others “snacking” has become a way of life. As the specialists suggest, you should choose the snacks that will not do any damage to your silhouette, taking into consideration the nutritional needs of the body.

A snack should be healthy first, and only then calorie nutritious. On the other hand, it is preferable to choose nourishing snacks than to eat something low calorie and after that to be hungry and eat again in two hours. Even if you look at it as an enemy, showing suspicion about its benefits, „snacking" between meals is not necessarily contraindicated. Snacks balance the body's energy levels and can be integrated into a healthy eating regime, without excesses.

In addition, if you will be limited to only 250 calories per meal, you will not put in danger your diet and you will manage to naturally reduce the intake of calories consumed at the next table. Therefore we decided to offer you some ideas for delicious and healthy food snacks that you can choose depending on your preferences. Do you love chocolate ice cream?

Well, instead you can try sugar-free options, containing numerous additives. You can prepare your own fruit salad garnished with a little powdered cinnamon or natural cream. If you have problems with weight, but want to eat healthy, you can prepare small cookies or cakes in the house, with sweetener, adding to them fruits such as nectarines and strawberries. Sprinkle raisins on composition. An excellent idea would also be preparing muffins, baked in your kitchen that can be filled with fruit jelly, no sugar. If you feel the need to "crunch" you can enjoy a variety of vegetables and seeds which are rich in fiber and vitamins. Opt for carrots, celery or green pepper, but also for almonds or walnuts.

When you have a lot to do and you do not have time for lunch, fruits and vegetables will provide a consistent taste and the vitamins, minerals and fiber necessary for optimum performance. Prepare delicious fruit salads with brown rice or red beans, to which you can add cubes of cheese or ham, chicken, boiled egg and a tablespoon of olive oil. Try to reduce the amount of salt consumed and not use mayonnaise or other dressing for salad, which contain fats and additives. If you prefer to drink rather than "crunch", you can opt for tasty drinks full of vitamins, such as fruit juices.

Using a squeezer, you can prepare apple juice, oranges, tomatoes or berries. With a little imagination, you can make interesting combinations between various fruit juices, to which you can add vanilla powder, some cinnamon, a slice of lemon or ice. If you are at work or in town, don’t be discouraged: you can choose a sugar drinks such as tea (sweetened, perhaps, with honey, unless you're on a diet), coffee, skimmed milk or plain water with lemon. You'll feel reinvigorated and you have energy all day.

Originally from Africa, where there are now still numerous wild plantations of palm trees, and this type of oil has been used for over 5000 years for food, palm oil is the third in world consumption of oils. But is palm oil a healthy oil? Palm oil is obtained from the flesh that surrounds the seed by crushing and pressing it. Pits are separated, and after being broken and peeled, it can be processed in turn, resulting in oil palm kernels, which represents about 10% of total production obtained from palm oil.



Essence oil is processed separately because the composition and use are different. The oil can be used for the preparing various food products and nowadays it seems like palm oil will replace sunflower oil. Why? Because palm oil is resistant to very high temperatures - 230 degrees Celsius, it does not smell and it also does not make smoke when cooking.  Research in the U.S. has shown that palm oil is rich in vitamins A and E, characteristic that makes palm oil a healthy oil.



These vitamins are powerful antioxidants and have an important role in preventing early aging. But according to nutritionists, palm oil's main asset is the strength of the toast. Palm oil does not degrade during roasting and does not form toxic substances, as is it happens in the case of other oils. You should not encourage the consumption of fried food, but if you do, however, it is recommended to use a high temperature resistant oil. Unrefined palm oil can resist at temperatures up to 230 degrees Celsius, while olive oil - 180 degrees and sunflower oil just 160 degrees.

Palm oil has major advantages over other vegetable oils: it is not absorbed in food, it doesn’t smell, it doesn’t make smoke and it maintains its color. Sunflower oil, though, is very sensitive to roasting. Therefore, it is safe to assume that palm oil should be used than for frying more often than sunflower oil.

Palm oil contains 40% - mono unsaturated fatty acids, 10% - 50% polyunsaturated fatty acids and saturated fatty acids in a smaller percentage. The first two categories of acids - the unsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids - remain liquid at the room temperature, while those saturated at the same temperature are solidifying. This explains the fact that palm oil is solid at room temperature.

Many people say that palm oil promotes atherosclerosis’ development, due to the high amount of saturated fatty acids, but it was found that palm oil does not increase the level of blood fats, although rich in saturated fatty acids. As evidence, think about the situation in Asia, where palm oil is commonly used for cooking, the incidence of cardiovascular disease is very low. You should keep in mind that during roasting, the food is releasing a substance that affects the central nervous system and promotes cancer.



Acrylamide appears especially during roasting of non-fat potatoes at high temperatures: sunflower oil, margarine, butter. During roasting foods high in protein - meat, fish - are generated smaller quantities than in those rich in carbohydrates: potatoes, bread. But even if we use only palm oil, specialists advise us to limit consumption of fried foods. Large amounts of acrylamide found in fried commercial products: peanuts, almonds, cereal, chips are in any way recommended for our healthy. As a conclusion, I hope I have managed to present a few of the benefits of using palm oil in your daily meals and also I believe I have answered the question “Is palm oil a healthy oil?”.

The food pyramid ensures a balance of vitamins and minerals of the main product groups: fat, meat, dairy, fruits, vegetables and fiber. If you have not found another diet with which you will lose weight, we recommend you trying a diet ... but not a new lifestyle. Consult the food pyramid, which is specifically designed to learn what types of foods and in what quantities should be consumed.



There are so many diets that can make you lose weight! I wonder how one can choose the most suitable healthy eating guide for himself. The specialists recommend a diet for weight loss that needs to be followed for life or even a long period of time. Pounds are put back together (sometimes even higher number); this is the so called yo-yo effect.



The key is to completely change our lifestyle and our default style of eating. In terms of nutrition, we should feed the body daily with all the vitamins and minerals it needs. This is the purpose for which the food pyramid was created, to teach us how to feed ourselves. Foods that are at the bottom can be consumed in larger quantities and more often than those in the upper part. Group 1 of foods from the top of the pyramid is represented by fats, oils and sweets. In a successful diet you must exclude these products: butter, fats, biscuits, sweets, cakes, sugar and sweet drinks.

Being unsaturated fats, peanuts, walnuts and almonds are recommended, but only in small quantities. Group 2 is represented by red meat, poultry, fish, nuts, seeds and soy products. These foods can be consumed even 3 times a day due to their content of vitamins, minerals, protein and fiber. Calcium, iron, zinc, vitamin E and B6 are necessary for the efficient daily operations of the human body and the most appropriate is the consumption of grilled white meat. Group 3 includes milk and milk products which contain a high amount of calcium. Skimmed milk is recommended to be consumed 2-4 times a day. It is contained by products such as: cheese, milk, margarine and yogurt.

Group 4 is represented by both fresh and canned fruit. In any diet consumption of fruit is recommended due to the fact that it’s high in vitamins. It is recommended to use fresh fruit instead of canned or the ones in syrups. Due to the fact that they are low in calories and fat you can eat fresh fruits even 2-4 times a day. Group 5 includes vegetables that are low in calories and fat, but rich in vitamins and fiber. Lettuce, carrot, onion, beans, cucumbers, tomatoes ... all vegetables are recommended due to their content of minerals, vitamins, essential oils, proteins and fats.



Group 6 consists of food with a high content of starch: bread, cereal, rice, pasta and potatoes. Due to increased consumption of fiber necessary for human beings, this group is at the top of the pyramid. It is recommended that one third of the daily diet to include these foods which provide vitamins and minerals. Any healthy eating guide should not ignore the importance of non-fat foods, milk, fruit and vegetables, fiber and whole grains in our daily diets.
