Diabetic patients and sweet curd – life threatening

Diabetes is a disease that is completely related to diet. In common words, it is a lifestyle disease. Once someone gets this disease, he or she has to take special care of his or her diet. If diabetic patients eat curd mixed with sugar or curd rice, then be careful because the sugar level will increase. A diabetic patient should not eat curd mixed with sugar. Today I shall bring your attention to whether a diabetic patient should eat curd mixed with sugar?

According to health experts, a diabetic patient should eat jaggery mixed with curd instead of sugar. This is because the combination of curd and sugar is not good for the body. Due to this, there may be problems with stomach burning and acidity. If you like curd very much then eat curd mixed with water, this will digest it properly and also keep the stomach cool. 

[self testing of  blood sugar]

Diabetic patients should take special care of these things. Eating excessive sugar is not good for anyone, but if a person has diabetes, then he or she should take special care of many things especially to avoid the consumption of white sugar, excessive white rice, sweet curd or curd rice, and other foods that elevate blood sugar levels.  

If it is very necessary to eat curd, then sugar or diabetic patients should take special care of the quantity of curd. Sugar patients should take special care of their diet. This is because the amount of protein in curd is very high. If you eat jaggery mixed with it, the bacteria are good for digestion. There are 3-4 grams of carbohydrates in 100 grams of curd. But diabetic patients have to take special care of things. 

Disclaimer: The above article is based on the experience of the writer while taking a patient's history. Sometimes, the diet may be good for some patients based on their body chemistry, so, Before implementing any change in routine diet it would be better to consult the concerned expert.

Slim Figure Vs Starvation diet and their side effects

A slim and trim figure is considered a sign of good health and such a figure also attracts people. However, to get a perfect figure and maintain it the diet has to be controlled, along with daily workouts,  which is not possible for many people, especially exercising. In such conditions, dieting seems to be the best option for many people. If you are dreaming of skipping exercise and becoming slim only through dieting, then no doubt you will become thin, but at the same time, you can also become a victim of many problems.  

Some people find the option of dieting easy to lose weight quickly and reduce the fat accumulated on the waist and stomach, but this option can cause great harm to your health. It is right to reduce the amount of food but it is absolutely not right to remain hungry for hours. 

The harm caused to health by dieting: 

1. A starvation diet: It involves staying hungry for hours, which is increasingly being adopted by people who want to lose weight these days. Due to a starvation diet, the amount of calories in the body starts decreasing, due to which the body starts using fats as primary energy. Due to this metabolism slows down. If your metabolic rate is low, no matter how hard you try, your weight does not reduce. Secondly, because of this one keeps feeling tired and weak all the time. 

2. Effect on mental health: According to experts, starvation and dieting can increase the risk of eating disorders. This means that some people feel more hungry, while some people lose their appetite completely. Dieting for a long time can lead to the problem of anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, or binge eating disorder, due to which the mood remains irritable, anger increases and the stress level also increases.

3. Nutritional deficiency: Not eating food causes a deficiency of vitamins, minerals, calcium, and protein in the body, which are necessary to run many functions of the body. Along with health, the effect of lack of these nutrients can also be seen on skin and hair. 

The right way to lose weight: 

1. For healthy weight loss, there is a need to balance the meals instead of skipping them. 

2. Eliminate unhealthy fats from the diet and replace them with lean proteins, vegetables, and whole grains. 

3. Drink an adequate amount of water. 

4. Get enough sleep. 

5. Take out 15-20 minutes daily for exercise.

Everyone likes to stay in the coolness of AC, from cars, and offices to home rooms. But do you know that staying in AC for many hours can cause difficulty in breathing, joint pain, or skin problems?

In such a situation, one needs to be very careful while using the AC. Because AC reduces moisture from the indoor air. Staying in AC for a long time can cause problems like dehydration, dry skin, and difficulty in breathing. In such a situation, one should avoid staying in AC for too long. Long time stay in AC causes difficulties in breathing, dry skin, asthma, dryness in eyes, weakness, bone diseases, dehydration, laziness, headache, etc.

2. Avoid sleeping in the direction where AC cool air directly hits your face and head.

3. try to wear soft and loose nightwear.

4. Try to cover your head with cotton clothes to avoid over-covering at the head surface.

5. Very important to maintain AC temperature by 24-25 degrees Celcius for comfort. overcooling may create dry skin and shrink the outer surface of the body skin leading to itching and many other problems.

Girls must not ignore Poly-cystic Ovary Syndrome - PCOS; may convert in to tumer later on...

In today's era, it has become common for young girls to suffer from Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). One out of every five young women in the country is affected by PCOS.

Girls living in cities are more at risk of PCOS compared to villages. The reasons behind this include restaurant and cafe food, soft drinks and packaged food, incomplete sleep, stress, and inadequate exercise.

As we know PCOS Polycystic Ovary Syndrome is a hormone imbalance that occurs in women. Androgenesis, i.e. production of male hormones, starts increasing in the ovaries of some girls. Due to this, ovulation occurs regularly. If PCOS is not treated timely, it can have many side effects. In such a situation, it is important not to ignore symptoms of PCOS when they appear in the body. The disease is easy to cure in the beginning.

Do not ignore the symptoms of PCOS - It includes -

  • pimples on the face
  • Facial and body hair growth
  • depression
  • heart disease
  • infertility
  • diabetes and
  • hypertension.
According to the doctors, the risk of PCOS increases due to wrong eating habits, sitting habits, laziness, and ignoring the symptoms indicating the disease. Mainly it includes processed foods, obesity, hypertension, diabetes, hormonal imbalances, etc.

NEW GENERATION IS MORE AFFECTED WITH PCOS: Actually, when a girl was in childhood, she used to play outdoor games. Today mobiles and gadgets have changed the environment. Due to this physical activity is not possible. Girls spend most of their time sitting in front of the computer. Do not take out time for physical activities. Along with this, staying busy on social media till late at night causes a lack of sleep, dehydration, weight gain, hyperproteinemia, thyroid problems, and mood swings. Changing lifestyle is completely responsible for this.

PCOS IS HARMFUL BECAUSE-

1. Women face difficulty in conceiving. According to the report of the National Institute of Health, 70 to 80 percent of women suffering from it are affected by infertility.

2. Women face emotional turmoil due to hormonal imbalances.

3. Body weight starts increasing rapidly. Increasing weight increases the risk of many diseases.

4. Periods do not occur on time. During periods, some people face the problem of less bleeding and some more.

5. PCOS affects the endometrial lining of the uterus. In such a case of PCOS, the risk of endometrial cancer increases.

6. The problem of PCOS is related to hormones. Therefore, it is very important to manage your lifestyle so that the secretion of hormones can happen properly.

Five yoga asanas can control PCOS:

1. Setubandhasana- While doing this yoga, the body becomes the shape of a bridge. This asana can be done during periods and menopause. Digestion also remains fine with this yoga.

2. Matsyasana- The stomach should be empty while doing this asana. By doing this asana regularly, the muscles of the front of the neck and lower abdomen become active.

3. Sarvangasana- In this asana, the weight of the entire body is given to the shoulders. While doing this, one has to lie down and raise the lower part of the body. Due to this, the entire burden falls on the shoulders.

4. Bhardwaj Asana- By doing this asana, there is a stretch on the stomach, which reduces belly fat and improves digestion.

5. Chakki Chalanasana- In this yoga, one has to sit with both legs spread. Then the hands are kept in front and run like a mill. This strengthens the pelvic and abdominal muscles.

Food Vs Beauty and health

In my village, my grandmother always tells us " Jaisa khaoge ann, waisa hoga mann" which means as you eat food, it will nourish your body like that. Nowadays everybody wishes to have beauty look but no one wishes to cook. 

The majority of women feel proud if their husbands arrange for a person to cook their food or take them outside for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The majority of times, arguments happen among the couple if both working. They will even not compromise to prepare a cup of tea for her soulmate. They will state "Me too work outside and got tired." As a result, the conversion reached on peak of fighting and some bought food from a food supplier company and others got angry and started dieting particularly for that night by skipping food.         

[Say NO to Junk food]

Do you know? skipping food is more dangerous for health. it will collapse your body's metabolism. Please don't compare skipping food with fasting because fasting has some rules to do with a calm mood as you prepare yourself to make fasting and accordingly you plan it for light food, juice, etc in a very calm mood however, when you are skipping the food due to angerness it gives very bad effect to the body and is very harmful too. 

Now you think what would be better? Eating outside the junk food, semi-processed or processed food, flavored food with enhancing taste by using Monosodium glutamate -  MSG?  OR just put some effort into sharing your kitchen with your soulmate to prepare some easy and healthy dish to eat and in this manner, you have to spend time with each other. 

Dear young generations, I am sharing my own experiences and request you to change your habit of going out and fast food that is by name is fast but slow your life by all means because one thing you have to consider in your mind even a hotel maybe 5 stars or many more will never through the remaining food that was not served the last dinner time, it will remain to be kept in freezers and the next day with the help of  MSG, the food taste enhancer, it will be served to someone plate. 

Have you ever thought about the effect of Monosodium Glutamate on health aspects? I know your answer will be NO. Because you have no time to think even a moment about your health because you have come from duty, you get tired, and you are hungry, have no time to cook, so immediately make an order to food delivery and eat Is It?  Think really you have no time even to cook your food that is highly important to your health? 

Yes! you have no time because if you spend all the time cooking, then no time will remain to watch mobile, real, Instagram, or Facebook. After all, many of your friends waiting for you and your lovely and stylish posts. Is it? So, you are joking about your health. 

Please note that you are driving a car that also needs to change its engine oil, and make general servicing. While changing the engine oil you are enquiring about the brand of the best engine oil for good milage and smooth engine functioning with best riding performance but even you think even a single time about your body engine when no replacement of engine oil i.e. blood is required to our body to run. If we serve junk food and processed food to our bodies, the smoothness of the function will be questionable. Am I correct? The imbalanced diet, I mean to say processed food even chips, meat, fish, etc has no such power that nourish our body but it works in the opposite direction to make you bulgy, fatty, obese, diabetes, hypertension, high blood pressure and ultimately defigured you from your beauty. there are many chances of a life-threatening disease like liver failure, kidney failure, and other cardiovascular diseases including cancer. So, Please try to curtail junk food and start to have your own cooked kitchen food made at home. 

Stay healthy, stay safe...

Ultra processed food and health

No one wishes to eat normal food at home. Due to the hectic work schedule, all are busy with work and turning themselves towards junk food or ultra-processed foods. Most packaged food is ultra-processed. Leave aside the taste, people are now eating ultra-processed foods like chips, biscuits-nankeen, pizza-burgers, and cold drinks to fill their stomachs.

If you also prefer to eat like this at the peak of hunger, then your health may be in danger. Ultra-processed food not only increases obesity but also increases the risk of cancer, mental health problems, and heart diseases.

To understand ultra-processed food in simple language, it means food that is not usually prepared in the home kitchen. If curd is made from milk at home then there is no problem. Whereas in some big industries, the curd is made from milk and to make it tasty, color, flavor, sugar, or corn syrup is also added.

[Ultra Process Foods ]

Home-roasted corn is healthy, whereas many chemicals, sugar, and salt are used to make delicious popcorn with extra flavor available in the market. This entire process is called ultra-processing and the food is called processed food.


Excessive consumption of ultra-processed foods increases the risk of early death by about 21-25 percent. Its consumption also increases the risk of death related to heart disease, obesity, and type 2 diabetes by 40-66 percent. At the same time, the risk of sleep problems and depression increases by 22-30 percent.

Obesity is one of the fastest-growing problems in the world. The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared it an epidemic. This means a disease that is spreading very rapidly throughout the world. Consuming too much ultra-processed food can lead to obesity. This also increases the chances of diseases like high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and lack of sleep. Better to stick with normal and less spicy, more vegetable, leafy foods, and avoid to consume much fast and junk foods, coled drinks, and beverages outside of the home prefer your kitchen-made foods. Spend some time on health.

Ectopic Pregnancy (Pregnancy in Fallopian tube) is dangerous if not taken care at early stage

There are many types of pregnancy which include multiple pregnancy, molar pregnancy, tubal pregnancy, lupus pregnancy, and intrauterine pregnancy. Intrauterine pregnancy is a safe pregnancy because the fetus develops in the uterus itself, but there is also a pregnancy in which the child does not develop in the uterus. This is called ectopic pregnancy.

[Image showing Ectopic pregnancy]

In India, 3.0-7.0% of women lose their lives due to ectopic pregnancy. Sometimes ectopic pregnancy can occur in the ovaries as well as the fallopian tubes. A woman must visit a doctor within 2 weeks of missing her period so that her life can be saved and her health gets better in time. If treatment is not done in time, the woman may even die.

1. Pregnancy occurring outside the uterus: Generally, pregnancy occurs in the uterus. There are ovaries on both sides of the uterus which connect it to the fallopian tube. Every month, after ovulation, i.e. after periods, an egg called ovum is released from the ovary, which gets fertilized in the fallopian tube and reaches the uterus. But sometimes this fertile egg gets stuck in the fallopian tube itself due to which the embryo starts developing in this tube. This is called ectopic pregnancy or tubal pregnancy. The fallopian tubes are 4 to 5 inches long and 0.2 to 0.6 inches wide. When the fetus starts growing, the risk of rupture of the fallopian tube increases.

2. The tube bursts in the stomach itself: If a woman has an ectopic pregnancy, the fetus gradually grows in this thin tube. Because of this, this tube can burst in the stomach any time after the 7th week of pregnancy. If it bursts, bleeding starts inside the stomach, which the patient is not even aware of. Due to internal bleeding, the patient starts going into shock. This reduces blood pressure and leads to fainting. This situation is fatal. If there is no miscarriage, the tube has to be removed: In ectopic pregnancy, the fertile egg is often destroyed immediately, followed by mild pain and bleeding. Such symptoms are considered miscarriage. But sometimes the situation becomes serious and in 99% of such cases, the fallopian tube has to be removed through surgery. After this, the woman becomes dependent on the second tube for pregnancy, which reduces the woman's chances of pregnancy. But nowadays 'Laparoscoping Milking Technique' is being adopted due to which there is no need to remove the fallopian tube.

3. Pregnancy test comes positive: Ectopic pregnancy is detected only through sonography. If a woman has this pregnancy, then her test comes positive from the pregnancy kit. Actually, as soon as a woman becomes pregnant, a hormone called Beta Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) is produced in the body. It is detected in both blood and urine. If a woman conceives in the fallopian tube outside the uterus, the pregnancy test card (PTC) will have a light line instead of a deep one. The woman also experiences blood spotting and stomach pain. After doing the pregnancy test yourself, you should definitely get a checkup done by a doctor.

4. Symptoms are not visible in the beginning: Ectopic pregnancy initially looks like a normal pregnancy. In this, the woman's periods stop. There is anemia, dizziness occurs, vomiting also occurs, and the breast becomes hard but at the same time, mild or severe pain and bleeding can also occur. If blood leaks from the fallopian tube. If so, there may be a pain in the shoulder, or the veins wherever blood accumulates may be affected.

5. Contraception can also cause problems: Some women get Copper T i.e. Intra Uterine Device i.e. IUD installed for contraception. Although the chances of getting pregnant from it are very low, if it is not applied properly in the private part then there is a fear of pregnancy. This pregnancy may be ectopic.

6. Ectopic pregnancy due to sexually transmitted infection: If a woman has unprotected sex and contracts a sexually transmitted infection such as gonorrhea or chlamydia, then this sexually transmitted infection affects the woman's fallopian tubes and the reproductive organs around them. Due to this also, women become victims of ectopic pregnancy. To avoid this pregnancy, one should avoid having multiple sexual partners and always use a condom.

7. The joy of becoming a mother can be taken away: Women who have problems with their fallopian tubes and have ever had tubal surgery may also have to face this type of pregnancy. Even if this pregnancy ends after surgery in the form of miscarriage, the woman may have to face the problem of infertility. But through IVF a woman can become a mother again. Many times ectopic pregnancy occurs due to IVF.

8. Take care of diet: Ectopic pregnancy mostly requires surgery, but nowadays many such medicines are available due to which this pregnancy does not survive. After ectopic pregnancy, women need to pay more attention to their eating habits. Women should eat things rich in fiber so that they do not suffer from constipation. You should also drink raw pasteurized milk which will help in fighting infections. Apart from this, fish and egg yolk should be included in the diet. After laparoscopy treatment, a woman should avoid eating rice, egg whites, spinach, ginger, coffee, soya milk, and pulses.

Symptoms include irregularities of half of the face (especially during laughing and with sight), and the head begins to shake. Premonitory symptoms include speech obstructions, loss of eye movement, tremors, shaking, hoarseness, deafness, blocked sneezing, loss of smell and memory delusions, exhaustion during sleep, one eye becoming closed, severe pain above the shoulders, half of the body or in the lower body. When this disorder exists for more than three years, it becomes incurable. 

13. Convulsions in blood and veins (Sirgraha): Vayu becomes excess in the blood and veins of the head, causing them to shrink, and become hard, painful, and black. This disorder is difficult to heal or may not be healed. 

14. Hemiplegia – half of the body veins and tendons (Pakshavadha OR Ekangaroga): When Vayu becomes excessed in half of the body, drying the veins and tendons by loosening the joints the result is loss of the function and tactile sensation. Apart from that the Vayu, pitta, and Kapha, doshas are responsible for causing many such incurable diseases if left untreated these are Arm paralysis, leg paralysis, stiffness in thighs, knee swelling, ankle pain, finger/toe contractions, foot sleeping, burning sole, stammering, cutting pain in rectum, bladder, lower abdomen distension, upper abdominal distention, prostrate tumors (painless or painful), and tremors. Now dear readers you will be able to know how the convulsion is dangerous and many times not curable too. So, if the production of Vayu is more in our body, we have to be very conscious to take treatment. 

Treatment: In Ayurveda, it is boldly recommended to take TRIPHLA CHURNA  with the consultation of a Physician who belongs to Ayurveda, Siddha, or Yoga and Naturopathy. The Physician may study your body condition and recommend the doses accordingly. The minimum treatment needed for one month and the adult dose is 1.5-2.0 g with lukewarm water at bedtime. Please do not start doses on your own, and highly recommended to consult a physician before taking medicines.
