Awareness

Wednesday, January 6th, 2010

The recent favorite TV shows of many people here in our country tackled about the effect of asbestos in a person’s health. I wonder if they know the term mesothelioma which is the actual term for that particular condition. There was a mine company that buried sacks of asbestos and its residues in one town. Because of this. people there got sick most especially the younger children and the older people. The main characters of the TV show are actually portraying the roles of lawyers. The show is now being praised by real lawyers. You know, people now are now aware that there is such thing as a mesothelioma law firm that could actually protect the rights of the victims and could actually collect a big sum of money.

Thank you to information campaign that people are now aware of mesothelioma laws. Yes, there is such a thing.

That kept me thinking. You could really get many diseases at your workplace.

For your heart

My friend who has a heart ailment is thinking of buying an AED. It means automated external defibrillator. It actually acts as a CPR in life threatening situations. But of course, she should be trained to use it or her housemates, friends and relatives shuld be trained to use it or else, it will not serve its purpose, right?

Funny, I am thinking of the TV show that has just ended yesterday. The main female character died of heart attack. They should have bought an AED.

Health pill

Saturday, August 29th, 2009

Blogging as a health pill. I am sure most bloggers would agree. Blogging for me has been a therapy. Yes, call me crazy but this world has been one of my listening friends for the past years. Well, in some way, it could respond too if there would be kind bloggers to take a peek here and comment. ;)

Let us go back to the basics

Friday, August 21st, 2009

Everybody around me gets sick these days. I am worried. What is happening? Oh, we really have to change our lifestyle, I guess.

There are so many reasons why people gets sick. First of course is the usual or normal or obvious cause. That is when one is afflicted with bacteria, virus, or anything that makes people sick. Sometimes, it starts with a simple cold then it would progress into a cough then for all you know, you already got flu.

Other forms are because of abuse. Yes, we abuse ourselves so much. We work hard, play hard but we forgot to rest. Let us go back to the basics, man! Let us take care of ourselves.

Then, there are the unexplainable. Sickness that starts from the mind? Depression? Discontented?
I really do not know.

All I know is that I have to be stronger for all of my loved ones who get sick these days.
Thank God, I am healthy.

In and out

Saturday, July 25th, 2009

Besides being beautiful outside, one of the worries of everyone is brain beauty. I term it brain beauty because I believe that when you are brainy, you are even more beautiful than those with empty coconut shells. Anyways, this woman I know is now taking hgh supplements and memory enhancers at the same time. She believes that as we take care of our outside appearance, we should also take care of our minds. She noticed that she is being forgetful lately that is why she decided to add memory enhancers in her regimen.

Time to empy the bottle area

Saturday, July 25th, 2009

Yes, I would throw away all those plastic pitchers already. I know that it is somewhat crazy. I always say that in the eraly ages, there is no such label as 1,2,3 and so on at the bottom of plastic bottles or containers for you to be able to know how long should you use it. Today, when it is labeled or marked 1, you should only use it once? Then, it should have not been marketed anyways or should have a warning, throw after use.

Sometimes, I would like to stop reading about health. As our Chemistry professor said once, if you would really follow everything in the book then you would not eat nor take anything at all because it turn out that everything has germs in it.

Migraine, pregnant or just the juice?

Monday, July 6th, 2009

She was clammy and looked pale. She said that she just came from the bathroom and did some stuff. She felt dizzy and could not help but throw up. Maybe she was having her migraine attack. Or, was she pregnant? Someone had been praying for that? Nahhh… it could just be that morning juice she gulped in. Her stomach was acidic that time and the reaction was not good. Well, she was traumatized by that feeling of discomfort. Maybe she would not drink any kind of fruit juice in the morning.

Food support

Saturday, June 27th, 2009

I thin that a diet supplement is a must for everybody. These supplements are necessary especially if you do not eat right. Sometimes we do not follow the food pyramid thus we lack some nutrients and vitamins in our daily intake. This is especially true for those who are in a diet.

I also believe that more than the children, it should be the elderly ones who should take more vitamins. Why? Because children could still eat anything and everything they like. Elderly people have more limitations because of sickness or their body systems could not process some kinds of food anymore. Thanks to diet supplements that things like these could be addressed.

Weight gain

Saturday, June 27th, 2009

Her story for today? She weighed herself today and the reading was 172 lbs! She is not losing but instead gaining! She said that the fats in the abdomen area seemed becoming softer. She means that she is losing or melting those fats. Her weight reading said otherwise. I wonder what happened to the best diet pills she is supposedly taking? Maybe she just eats more these days.

There are lots of factors that lead to weight gain. Number one for her is stress eating and stress sleeping. I really do not know why she gained those pounds while we eat the same amount of food. Could it be attributed to metabolism then? Maybe she eats more when I am not around. :)

The mirror tells the truth

Thursday, June 11th, 2009

Sometimes, even if you know it already, you still want to hear it from others. Like being fat for example, you already know it because you could see yourself everyday every time you go in front of the mirror, right? There are love handles, double chins, small nose, etc… What more do you need? Do you still want to know if you are fit? Do you actually believe that somehow, the mirror lies?

If you would like to know if you are fit… then take this quiz.

She took it and she answered the questions truthfully. Thus, she got the obvious result… :(


You’re Not Very Fit


You’re likely to admit that exercise just isn’t your thing. You don’t really like to exercise.

Your heart may be in the right place, but you’re not exercising enough to see any benefits from it.

Maybe you need to experiment with new activities to find something you love.

Whether it’s roller derby or surfing, just getting out there and moving will do wonders!
