Fighting obesity
The body weight of the people who frequently drink coffee is found to be stable for twelve years in comparison with that of the people who desist from drinking coffee. This is the outcome of the research conducted by Harvard School of Public Health Team, in Boston, the United States.

Adding up spirit
Drinking coffee in the intervals of working hour is found to be able to help us remain fit and concentrated. Glycogen will help us to be faster and more energetic in the next session.
A research points out that the athletes consuming drink that contains caffeine carbohydrate after cycling have more glycogen (energy supply) in their muscles if compared to those who don’t consume the same drink.

Relieving risks of disease
In conformity with a research by The National Institute of Environmental Medicine in Sweden, adding up a consumption of coffee can prevent us from the risks of heart cancer. Two cups of coffee a day is enough to curtail the risks of cancer up to 43 percent.
Another study indicates women that consume coffee have a lessening risk of having heart attacks until 24 percent. The antioxidant available in coffee is assumed to protect us from those diseases.
A study reported in Journal Nutrition mentions that unmarried women that frequently drink coffee everyday own a lessening risk of developing breast cancer until 40 percent. The caffeine and polipenhol contained in coffee protect bodies against breast cancer.

Helping a memorizing power
A researcher from Medical University of Inssbruck, Austria asserts that caffeine can prevent the decrease of a memorizing power. Drinking a cup of coffee before an important meeting with clients is quite worth trying so as to sharpen a memorizing power and thought.

Diluting circumstances
Ought to deal with people very difficult to co-operate? Ask them to drink a cup of coffee. Caffeine will cause people to be opened. This is what is reported in an issue of European Journal of Social Psychology.
Researchers reveal that caffeine stimulates cognitive functions so that people will opened and more respective.

From the collected clothes and sponges, varieties of dangerous bacteria such as Escherichia coli as well as coliform that can bring about diarrhea or intoxication are discovered. Experts also detect staphy lococcus aureus, a kind of common bacterium that can engender varieties of infection from skin until lung infections or pneumonia, Bacterium families also belong to MRSA and MSSA super germs that pass through a mutation and become resistant to antibiotics.

A microbiologist, Professor Hugh Pennington states is quite possible that Staphy lococcus discovered in the keyboards are sensitive strain MSAA that has paralyzed one of the British celebrated artists, Leslie Ash.
A research in many hospitals also suggests that one of the five keyboards in a patient’s care ward is infected with MRSA. Nevertheless in presence of this threat, Prof. Pennington offers a sufficiently easy solution.

“Dry keyboards under sun ray. Bacteria don’t stand to ultraviolet radiation or dry conditions that will kill them quickly”, he said.
Meanwhile James Francis, a microbiologist of Kingmoor Technical Services, directly involved in this research, admits having discovered four distinctive bacteria. In his discovery he recommends that keyboards be regularly cleaned in order not to brings about health risks.
This discovery is the follow-up of a survey acted out by Which? Computing Magazine, showing that one of the ten people never clean their computers. Only one of the four people clean his computer keyboard or laptop once a month.

Bacteria can easily inhabit your computer keyboard spaces. One of the factors that facilitate the entry of bacteria into keyboard spaces in the eating habit is on your work table. The Food leavings stuck on keyboards will trigger the growth of bacteria. Dirt can also be problematic when it is trapped in humidity. This condition will create an environment conductive for bacteria to propagate.

In line with Prof. Pennington’s view, two tremendous problems are that people don’t clean their hands correctly after getting inside a rest room and people often clean their nostrils by directly using one of their bare fingers when they work.

1. Replace the cigarettes habitually consumed with other trade marks of cigarettes that contain low tar and nicotine. Few weeks before smoking cut deadline, this step affects the pattern of smoking attitudes.
2. Reduce daily cigarette consumption, don’t inhale a bar of cigarette to end and don’t inhale it deeply. The main idea of this suggestion is to curtail the dependency of bodily system working under the influence of nicotine.
3. Delay an hour to light up cigarettes, when desires to smoke cigarette arises. Occupy yourselves with some urging activities. Smoke cigarette only if you really want. Let’s not make smoking be an automatic activity.
4. Arrange your smoking time in accord with certain days or dates, everyday. For example you ought to decide to smoke at uneven hours so that you will just smoke at 9, 11, 13, 15, o’clock etc. Plan since early morning how bars of cigarette you will consume.
5. Arrange your eating pattern so it can be in place of smoking habit, for instance, have a glass of milk every time desire to smoke emerges.
6. Don’t empty an ashtray. A fully-filled ashtray will remind you of the number of cigarettes you have smoked.
7. No need to provide cigarettes in a relatively great number. Don’t bring cigarettes in time of traveling. Make yourselves no access to get cigarettes when desire to smoke comes up.

Don’t miss eating a before daybreak meal
Eating a before-daybreak meal is one of requirements in doing fasting. Although it is not obligatory, it has a significant function to provide us with nutrition and store energy for activities in time of fasting. In order to obtain health advantages, the menu for before-daybreak meal should be fibrous and hold high protein, however avoid consuming highly sweet food. Fibrous food slows down our digestive process, on the contrary highly sweet food quickens our digestive process consequently feelings of thirst and hunger come faster during the day. A daybreak–approaching before-daybreak meal is strongly recommended since it can make our energy last longer.

Eat a before-daybreak meal with correct patterns
Don’t postpone breaking fast if the time has come. The most necessary thing in time of breaking fast is to restore energy. Accordingly eat simple carbohydrate sources available in sweet food, syrup and other easily digestible food. Subsequent to praying and resting for a while, advisably we eat main courses such as rice and side dishes but in moderate portion. Snack or soft drink can be eaten after ‘taraweh’ prayer in small portion.

Stay active as usual
Fasting is not equal to lessening activities or work. In the first few days, there must be bodily adjustment and adaptation chiefly for those who seldom do fasting and sports. Heavy activities or sports is of course prohibited yet the light ones are even recommended. Such light sports as jogging, gymnastics, walking are fully recommended particularly by the coming of breaking fast time. ‘Taraweh’ prayer is an activity that can be look after fitness.

Consume more water
Body is more susceptible to water shortage rather than food storage, therefore water necessity can be fulfilled by drinking more water, inclusive of milk, syrup, fruit and soupy food. Tea and coffee are preferably avoided in time of breaking fast.

Control emotion
Fasting covers efforts to control emotion. Calm heart due to controlled emotion will step down energy consumption or metabolism flow so that use of energy can be minimized.

There is something to avoid: avoid eating any fried and high sugar-containing food, yellow part of egg since it contains bad fat, shrimp, sea cucumber, oyster, crab, bowels, brain, and heart that contains high cholesterol, as well as red meat,. Eat more fish and skinless chicken.

Adequate portion: don’t be lose control when looking at snacks and food, approaching the time to breakfast. And don’t eat in excess at time of breaking fast. Fasting means passion and self control.

For diet: ideally, after doing fasting we will minimally lose one to two kilos, for ideal weight owners, they will neither lose or nor gain weight. Let alone for overweight persons, one-month fasting is supposed to be able to reduce weight until three kilos.

Regular sports: do light sports simply for sake of maintenance, one to one and a half hours prior to the time to break fasting for maximally thirty minutes is sufficient.

Continuation: the function of fasting as detoxifier would be utterly better if implemented in daily life, for instance one-or-two-time fasting in a week.

A research indicates breakfast with a high portion of carbohydrate becomes an important element for a person’s successful program in reducing body mass.

As it is reported by BBC, Thursday (19/6), the monitoring result toward the women suffering from obesity notes that those who eat up a half of daily portion calorie at breakfast time achieve more satisfying result than those who get less calorie at breakfast time.

A researcher of Commonwealth University, America, Dr Daniela Jakubowicz, in a recent conference in San Francisco, reveals that breakfast with low portion of calorie is believed to be going to provoke hunger.

Dr Jakubowicz himself has recommended satisfied breakfast with high carbohydrate to his patients for fifteen years. He then compares it with the low-carbohydrate breakfast on ninety-six obesity-suffering women who are less active in doing activities.

Women with low-carbohydrate breakfast are given a daily total portion of calorie up to 1.085 calories—mainly originated from protein and fat. Breakfast for this group is a meal with the lowest daily content of calorie, namely only 290 calories with 7 grams of carbohydrate.

Meanwhile women with high calorie-containing breakfast are given a daily total of calorie up to 1,340 –with a low portion of fat but high carbohydrate and protein. On this group, breakfast holds 610 calories with 58 grams of carbohydrate., lunch holds 395 calories and dinner 235 calories.

Within four months on, women with low carbohydrate breakfast seem much better. Their body mass fall averagely up to twenty-eight pounds in comparison with those having high carbohydrate breakfast that lose only twenty-three pounds. However after eight months, the situation becomes a contradiction in which the average body mass of the low carbohydrate group gains eighteen pounds, on the other hand, that of the high carbohydrate group loses 16,5 pounds. In average, the high carbohydrate group loses one-fifth of their total body mass, whereas the low carbohydrate group loses less than five percent.

Domination of fiber and fruit
Dr Jakubowicz reports that women that have high carbohydrate breakfast confess not to feel hungry especially in the morning. By having high carbohydrate breakfast, one will feel not hungry in the whole day and body is much heavier now that the menu is dominated by fiber and fruit.

“Many researches on body mass reduction has stipulated that very low carbohydrate is not an appropriate method to reduce body mass. This only will worsen feelings of hunger and slow down metabolism. As a result, not long after diet program obesity recurs”, reveals he.

On the reverse, Dr Alex Johnstone of Rowett Research Institute in Aberdeen, judges a high carbohydrate diet only as a model that does not make dieters faster bored. He says even though there are other researches showing that a low carbohydrate diet is the best method to reduce body mass in short time, however this model is not easy to implement as a lifestyle.

According to him, ability to regain body mass decrease on dieters can signal the monotony of the two diet models rather than the dieters’ ability to curb their feelings of hunger. “It is not difficult someone to go on a high carbohydrate diet and implement it longer”, he added further.
