5 home remedies to cure cracked heels Posted: 19 Oct 2020 12:00 AM PDT Cracked heels are a common foot condition, which can cause discomfort or even pain. They result from dry skin and are accompanied by thickened skin, plus sometimes yellow or brown calluses around the heel edge.The skin on the heels is thick and dry, and with excessive activity, it tends to bleed and crack.Often, the only problem with cracked heels is their appearance. However, in some cases, the condition can be severe if the cracks become infected.Although it occurs in both adults and children, it seems to be severe among women.Standing on a cold or hard floor for long, intensive walking, and being overweight are some of the reasons heels crack. But these problems can be fixed when you try these lifestyle listed below. Vegetable oil Studies show that vegetable oils contain emollient properties, along with antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and wound-healing properties. They act as nutritional building blocks for healthy skin. These potent qualities of vegetable oils can help treat cracked heels. Method: Wash your feet and dry them with a clean towel. Apply a layer of vegetable oil on the affected area. Wear a pair of thick socks and leave them on overnight. Wash your feet in the morning. Honey Honey is a natural antiseptic that helps heal cracked feet, and its soothing properties help revitalize the skin. Method: Mix one cup of honey in half a bucket of warm water. Soak your feet for about 15-20 minutes in the water-honey mixture. Scrub off gently. Shea Butter Shea butter hydrates, nourish, and moisturizes the skin. It also possesses healing properties and improves various skin conditions related to dryness because of its vitamin A and vitamin E content. Method: Apply shea butter on your feet and massage them for a minute or two so that it is absorbed easily. Slip-on some socks and leave the shea butter on overnight. Banana and Avocado foot mask Avocado contains vitamins A, E, and omega fatty acids and other nutrients that promote wound healing. Banana works as a moisturizer. These properties may help treat cracked heels. Method: Blend a ripe banana and half an avocado. Apply this thick, creamy paste over your heels and feet. Keep it on for 15 to 20 minutes and then wash off your feet with lukewarm water. Coconut oil Coconut oil moisturizes dry skin and also helps get rid of dead skin cells. It can penetrate to the deeper layers of the skin and nourish them. Method: Apply coconut oil liberally on your feet. Slip-on the socks and go to bed. Shower as usual in the morning. |
If you suffer from ulcers, here's the life-saving painkiller information you need to know Posted: 18 Oct 2020 11:30 PM PDT If you have an ulcer, you need to avoid any foods or medicines that will make your condition worse Before you reach for the painkillers next time you are in pain, make sure you read this first.Ulcers can react badly to over-the-counter medicine and could prove fatal. Here's all the information you need to know.Painkillers work by blocking the effects of these pain chemicals. The problem is that you can't focus most pain relievers specifically on your headache or bad back. Instead, it travels through your whole body. This can cause some unexpected side effects.The same chemicals that amplify pain, which some pain medicines block, also help maintain the protective lining of the stomach and intestines. When a painkiller stops these chemicals from working, the digestive tract becomes more vulnerable to damage from gastric acids.Cause of ulcers Peptic ulcer disease is most often caused by a bacterial infection called Helicobacter pylori. These bacteria sit below the surface of the stomach and first portion of the intestine. If you have not been tested for this infection, this should be your first step. Treating this infection with antibiotics and acid blockers will decrease your risk of bleeding ulcers in the future.The second most common cause of peptic ulcer disease is from the use of aspirin and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, NSAIDs. Two NSAIDs available over the counter (meaning they don't require a prescription from a doctor) are: If you have an ulcer, use of these NSAIDs could be dangerous and potentially life-threatening. A non-NSAID pain reliever, like acetaminophen, may be a safer choice. Your doctor can also recommend appropriate alternatives. If you need to use an NSAID, always take it with milk or food to make it easier on your stomach. To prevent problems, your doctor might recommend: Look for symptoms If you have to take an NSAID, know the symptoms of trouble. If you have an increase in abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, dark stools, weight loss or fatigue get checked out right away. Avoid alcohol Most pain relievers do not mix with alcohol. If you take an NSAID, including aspirin, just one drink a week can increase your risk of gastrointestinal bleeding. People who have three or more drinks a day should not use these medicines. Combining acetaminophen and alcohol may increase the risks of lliver damage. Use as directed Follow the directions for the recommended dosage. Most painkillers shouldn't be used for more than 10 days. If you're still in pain by that point, see your health care provider. Read the package insert Admit it: When you buy a bottle of over-the-counter pain reliever, you likely throw out the printed insert along with the empty box. But you really should get in the habit of reading it. Find out what side effects you should look for. Look at the list of possible drug interactions or ask your pharmacist or doctor to go over it with you. Read the ingredients of all medicines Painkillers like aspirin, acetaminophen, and ibuprofen can show up in the most unlikely places. For instance, many over-the-counter medicines for colds also contain doses of pain reliever. So make sure you know what you're getting. Even some antacids contain aspirin, which can be a special risk to people with ulcers Tell your doctor about all medicines, herbs, and supplements that you use. Interactions are a real danger. For instance, taking NSAIDs along with some common medicines, like some corticosteroids and blood thinners can increase the risks for people with ulcers. Your doctor needs to know about all the medicines you take before you're prescribed a new medicine. Don't forget to mention over-the-counter medicines, herbal remedies, and vitamins. Bring a list of all the medicines and supplements you take to your doctor. It could actually save your life." |
7 things your partner does not need to know about you Posted: 18 Oct 2020 11:00 PM PDT Of course, very relationship should be built on trust; but there's a limit to openness and there exist things your partner does not really need to know.Here are the things you really should not be telling that your boyfriend or girlfriend if you intend to keep the relationship going.In essence, it's OK to cut down on openness in a relationship from 100% to somewhere in the region of 90% or so. And here's the reason: some people really just can't handle the truth. It does not make them bad people or bad partners; they're not just wired to be calm or stay sane in the face of certain revelations.So instead of risking something beautiful over an inconsequential detail that'll likely not hurt anyone if forever locked away in a vault, just keep mum and continue coasting with the love of your life. Here are 7 times when it's OK to leave some things unsaid; 1. Your sexual history For real, not many boyfriends/girlfriends want to hear the step by step narration and graphic details of how you had sex in a bathroom stall at the mall with your ex or some random babe. 2. Your body count As we already discussed in detail here, for the ladies, only your doctor and/or gynecologist deserves this information. 3. That someone at work [or anywhere] has a crush on you Really, this is literally opening the door for problems no one wants. Here's the thing about revealing this information – you put your partner in a position to have his imagination roam and become paranoid. Don't stress yourself explaining how many people have a crush on you. It may not be a wise move. [Credit: SG Hunter] Don't stress yourself explaining how many people have a crush on you. It may not be a wise move. 4. That you have a crush on someone else Being genuinely in love with a man or woman does not magically take away the inclination to be attracted or to fall in love with other people. So if you find yourself tripping for some other guy/babe, it may be too much information for your partner. 5. That you don't like their parents I'm not sure anyone wants to hear her boyfriend say he does not like her mum. Neither is there any guy who would stand for that. The only time this may be OK is when you no longer value the relationship and you're willing to let go of it. 6. That you snooped through their stuff Even if you searched and found out that they've been loyal and loyal to you, keep the good news to yourself. There really is no way to justify snooping through his stuff in the first instance. You're going to come off as distrustful and things may just go downhill from there. Better keep the info to yourself. 7. That you still stalk his ex Ladies, your boyfriend does not need to know that you have been stalking his ex on social media. You'll come off as insecure and you don't need that. Same thing goes for guys. You really so not want to give off the vibe of insecurity. Your babe does not need that. |

Like magic, we never see them coming. White food that increases belly fat includes: bread, rice, pasta, yam, garri anything made from flour is a no-no. However, the only exception to the white colour rule for belly fat is sweet potatoes which are delicious and healthy with low glycerin index. There's also brown rice or ofada rice, whole grain pasta, wheat bread, wheat crackers. Yes, not eating white foods are hard but then why are you reading this? Is it not for the purpose of burning out belly fat? 2. Avoid fizzy drinks To lose belly fat in few weeks, avoid fizzy drinks. Simple!

Stick around. 3. Do not eat after 7pm Late night eating is simply bad for belly fat. To lose belly fat in few weeks, snacking too is prohibited.

I don't mean crunches, you will be wasting your time with just that. Do high-intensity interval training (HIIT). This is an intense form of cardio. It is intense but also very effective and works your core which is where your belly is situated. Additional tips for losing belly fat in few weeks: • Drink a glass of water with two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar 30 minutes before meals. • First thing in the morning, a glass of water with lemon or lime or honey. • You can also have a glass of Ceylon cinnamon and honey, morning and last thing before bed. In conclusion, I would urge you to see these few stated points as offered help, and ensure you make use of them with action. |
