<br />
<b>Probiotics for kids</b><br />
Every mom having a kid has experienced the problem of acute diarrhoea in children which they wish that it is cured without antibiotics. And through generations we have been sharing some formulas that work as cure to disease and also improve the immunity of the kid. These formulas work as food which are enriched with some microorganism or useful bacteria. <br />
<a name='more'></a><b>Probiotic food</b> are some such food which help to cure diarrhoea and reduce the harmful effects of use of antibiotics. Bacteria such as Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium, and Saccharomyces etc work for human health system when taken as food or drink. A very common example is Lactobacillus acidophilus which help milk to curdle and we all know the <b>benefits of curd</b> or fermented milk.<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 24px; font-weight: bold;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 24px; font-weight: bold;">How good bacteria in probiotic food work</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 24px; font-weight: bold;"><br /></span>
The probiotics or good bacteria that we take with our food like curd or pickles do not live in the intestine. They get flushed out everyday. But other bacterias in our intestine walls are huge in number and they live there and they all serve different purposes and they also have different nutirtional requirements. So by adding the probiotics to our diet we caan ensure that the specific bacterias are provided nutrients. This also increase the chance of the specfic bacteria of growing and increasing their colony.<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 21px; text-align: -webkit-auto;">One example will make it easy to understand <b>how the probiotics work</b>. Fructooligosaccharides known as FOS is a known prebiotic. The FOS is made of fructose sugar molecules linked together in long chains. These prebiotics can be found in onions,leeks, some grains and in honey. So in this way we consume food that contains that contains prebiotic and we get p</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 21px; text-align: -webkit-auto;">robiotics in our diet.</span></span><br />
<br />
When babies born they do not have any bacteria in their intestines. But their intestines are colonized by bacteria as soon as they born. babies born through a <a href="http://healthylifestylishway.blogspot.com/2011/07/how-to-look-attractive-during-pregnancy.html">normal vaginal delivery</a> contains more useful bacteria in their intestine and and also babies which are breast feed as soon as their birth also contain more useful bacteria in their intenstines. Mother's milk contains probiotics so it is believed that breast feeding help promoting growth of good bacteria. This is why it is tried by scientists to add probiotics in infant milk formula.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-uUxoAbcgBQs/Tk5QOLuIWyI/AAAAAAAAARA/g9iRBjw_Zbo/s1600/DSCF0030+-+Copy.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-uUxoAbcgBQs/Tk5QOLuIWyI/AAAAAAAAARA/g9iRBjw_Zbo/s1600/DSCF0030+-+Copy.JPG" height="180" width="200" /></a></div>
The moment my Gynaecologist suggested a Triple marker test I was quite confused. All I knew about this test is that it is done to detect Down's syndrome in the foetus. What kind of test it is. Is it something optional or mandatory in nature. Why me?? Because <a href="http://healthylifestylishway.blogspot.com/2011/07/how-to-look-attractive-during-pregnancy.html">my first pregnancy</a> went quite smoothly and I was just 30 while conceiving for the second time. Then?<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This actually pushed me to some serious Internet search. My findings were shocking because Triple marker test is suggested to <a href="http://healthylifestylishway.blogspot.com/2011/08/how-to-get-rid-of-pregnancy-weight.html">would be moms</a> who are above 35 and who has a family history of Down's syndrome or other neural tube defects. I was on the verge of a total break down...</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Like many I too opted for the test. And as city labs were not equipped to examine the findings of a Triple marker test it took a complete one week to get the reports from a Mumbai lab. And you can imagine my ordeal in this longest week of my life. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<h2>
What is a triple marker test and why it is suggested?</h2>
<h2>
</h2>
</div>
<div>
As I am telling you triple marker test is a test to find out whether the foetus is suffering from Down's syndrome. Women getting pregnant at an age above 35 or more have higher risk of delivering a baby with Down's syndrome. And if the parents of the baby has a family history of Down's syndrome are suggested the triple marker test to save them from the risk.</div>
<div>
<div>
<h2>
When the triple marker test done</h2>
<b>Triple marker</b> <b>test </b>is done between 15th to 20th weeks of pregnancy. Triple marker test is also known as <b>Multiple marker test</b> or <b>triple screen test</b> or<b> quad screen</b>. Depending upon the number of elements measured in the test the name is given to it. Sometimes it is also done with ultrasound in the first trimester.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Triple marker test requires</b> a sample of blod of the pregnant mother.</div>
<div>
The points that are checked in a triple/multiple marker test are</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br />
<ol style="text-align: left;">
<li>Human chorionic gonadotropin(HCG), which is made by the placenta</li>
<li>Estriol that is made by the placenta and the fetus</li>
<li>Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), which is made by the fetus</li>
<li>Sometimes the level of inhibin-A.</li>
</ol>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
These tests help doctors to find out whether the foetus has any chromosomal abnormalities like Down syndrome or any neural tube defects like spina bifida. While determining the results doctors have to keep in mind some factors which are very important.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
These factors which deternine the result of the triple marker test are<br />
<br />
<ol style="text-align: left;">
<li> Gestational age of the foetus,</li>
<li>Mother's age and health and weight.</li>
<li>Whether she is diabetic,</li>
<li>Whether the mother has delivered twins or other multiple babies. </li>
</ol>
All these factors are weighed carefully while determining the result of the test. So my suggestion is that please don't overtly worried about the test.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<h2>
Indications in Triple marker test</h2>
</div>
<div>
Generally if the triple marker shows<b> higher AFP</b> it points to possible risk of spina bifida or any other neural tube defect. And <b>lower level of AFP along with Estriol</b> and higher level of HCG and inhibin-A suggest Down's syndrome. Doctors will then do an ultrasound of fetal skull and spine to detect any abnormality as well as the actual age of the foetus. Whether the mom is carrying a multiple pregnancy is also a factor to be determined. But actually and unfortunately ultrasound is the not the right test to check Down's syndrome because it is not adequate. If any abnormality or indication found about Down's syndrome doctors may suggest an amniocentesis test. Here, pregnant mother is offered an <b>amniocentesis</b> by which chromosome on the fetal cells found in the aminiotic acid are tested.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Everyone does not like to go for this test, because this test involves some risks too.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>

<br />
Acually if your have not shed the extra weight that you have put on during pregnancy it is great for you. hard to believe? But true. reasons,<br />
<br />
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Firstly and most importantly, you are breastfeeding your baby. And you are the sole provider of all the nutrients that the baby requires. So a healthy and a slightly over-weight mom would be much better than and waif-like attractive mom for the baby.</li>
</ul>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>When you are slightly overweight it means that you are eating well. Studies show that women eats well mostly during while they are pregnant. So continue eating well after childbirth too at least until you baby starts taking solid food.</li>
</ul>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>A healthy mother can handle the baby with more ease that those who are not. If you lose your pregnancy weight very fast you will remain fastidious and irritated all the time, and feel easily exhausted during loads of extra chores that come along with the arrival of the baby.</li>
</ul>
<br />
Trust me these are some reasons that will make you feel happier and confident. You will enjoy your time with the new born more. And when time comes you will be ready to shed those extra kilos.</div>

<li>Take care of your gums which may bleed during pregnancy because of hormonal changes and need of extra dose of calcium. Talk to your dentist during pregnancy is a must anyways.</li>

<li>Make sure all your <b>make up products during pregnancy</b> are from reputed brands, don't be casual in checking the expiry date.</li>
<li>A hair-cut may lift your mood because hair tends to more messy, frizzy and unmanageable during pregnancy. Consider oiling your hair twice in a week. But make sure to choose some oil varieties that contain no added essence. A neutral hair oil should be selected because during pregnancy you feel adverse you many essence it may be harmful for your baby. And also avoid perfumed hair gel or other products.</li>

Gone are the days when <a href="http://healthylifestylishway.blogspot.com/2011/08/how-to-get-rid-of-pregnancy-weight.html"><b>motherhood</b></a> was considered something which could a full stop to a woman's style quotient. Film stars who decided to get married and have children were never approached by producers do perform a lead role. Models would take up different jobs or simply look after their<a href="http://shoppingkolkata.blogspot.com/2011/07/gini-and-jony-kids-wear-stores-in.html"> kids</a>. But now neither marriage nor motherhood can stop a woman from looking attractive. Yummy mommies like Malaika Arora Khan, Ravina Tendon and Sridevi (making a grand comeback with Gauri Shinde's English Vinglish) are actually raising the bar for the mothers who want to continue looking attractive after becoming mother. Now everyone just want to look their best anytime. So why not during pregnancy? <b><a href="http://healthylifestylishway.blogspot.com/2011/07/facial-make-up-tips-for-pregnant-women.html">Looking attractive during pregnancy</a></b> has become a priority now along with maintaining health and fitness.

<br />
<h2>
Tips to look beautiful during pregnancy</h2>
<div>
Invest in clothes that are comfortable. This is very important because there will be thousand other factors that will constantly keep your body uncomfortable. Most of the time you are going to feel tired. especially at the end of the day and even during the morning right after waking up! So comfort should be the first concern.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<u><b>Forget about all your tight-fit outfits</b></u> at least for the next one year. This will keep you peaceful. You may fit into your tight jeans during the first trimester, but let yourself make accustomed to the changing pattern of body structure.This will make people around you more conscious about your pregnancy.<br />
<br />
Choose airy fabrics like cotton, linen etc. During pregnancy your skin develops rashes very easily even from the mildest of itching. Keep a bottle of calamine lotion handy to rub whenever you feel itching. And remember to keep your skin moisturized. Soft fabrics like cotton helps in absorbing if you sweat.<br />
<br />
<b>Choose A-line clothing </b>to make you look comfortable<b> </b>and<b> beautiful during pregnancy</b>. This cut is amazing during pregnancy and even after childbirth. Because it provides room for the growing bump and make it less conspicuous. Again A-line front buttoning dresses will come handy for breast feeding after childbirth. You can choose A-line top, kurta to match along with straight-cut Indian pajamas. A-line flowing dress will also compliment your look during the days.<br />
<br />
Indian traditional dresses are very good during pregnancy. Salwar suits in cotton or other soft fabrics are comfortable. If you can carry one a sari is also great during pregnancy. It saves your baby bump from undue attention in public places.<br />
<br />
<b>Maternity clothing</b> are now part of many apparel brands that are specialized in baby and infant clothing. You can get them in famous kids brands. You can check for online maternity clothing stores at <b><a blank="" href="http://babycenter.com/" nofollow="" rel="" target="">www.babycenter.com</a></b> and many other stores to select branded maternity clothing for yourself.<br />
<br />
Pajama and Tees are also great during pregnancy if you count only comfort factor.<br />

The bundle of joy you have ever been wishing to hold in your palms, the tiny hands and legs to touch with, the sweet milky smell ... You just cann't wait anymore. The package comes with lots of problems along with with, I agree and that is why most couples today take too long to take the big decision. But had it been such a huge issue the population of our country would not have crossed 100 millions. So you too can go for it. But to make this hopeful journey better and sweeter you can make some advanced <b><a href="http://healthylifestylishway.blogspot.com/2011/07/how-to-look-attractive-during-pregnancy.html">planning for pregnancy</a></b>.<br />
<a name='more'></a> Here is a handy list of tips which will help you to plan a healthy pregnancy.<br />
<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li><b>Preparation for pregnancy</b><br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
Though a woman has to sail through lots of inconvenience in terms of hormonal imbalance, an array of skin problems, varicose veins, night cramps, nausea during initial days, weighty issues during last semester, elder child(s) to deal etc the woman can deal with pregnancy quite smoothly and happily if the pregnancy is planned and she and her husband(partner) is well prepared for a pregnancy.<br />
<br /></div>
<br />
</li>
<li><b>A health check up: what should be included in a pre-pregnancy health check up</b><br />
<br />
A health check up with make your health status updated. Blood test, thyroid level, diabetes, any family history of genetic disorders all should be discussed thoroughly. If you have any problem regarding your menstrual cycle that too should be discussed with your gynaec.<br />
<br />
</li>
<li><b>Is your home ready for a newborn </b><br />
<br />
You and your family is ready to welcome the addition to the family. But is your house ready for the newborn. If not, then try to find out a better environment for yourselves at least for the sake of the new one. The house should be airy and should have scope for sufficient amount of daylight which will be very essential for the newborn.<br />
<br />
</li>
<li><b>How to make yourself physically ready for pregnancy </b><br />
<br />
If you are not a regular exerciser, here is the time to start at least now. If you want to be a good mother you will have to sacrifice many nights after childbirth and you will face thousands of daily chores which you cannot imagine now. Definitely you will be needing a better health and more stamina. So try now onward.<br />
<br />
</li>
<li><b>Give up drinking or smoking</b><br />
<br />
If you drink or smoke than give up right now and wait for at least three months to conceive. The affect of alcohol and smoking remains in your blood for a long period and it will have harmful effect on the newborn.<br />
<br />
</li>
<li><b>Prepare your husband</b> <br />
<br />
Start telling your husband about your thoughts. He may not like the idea initially, but you have to make it possible for him too! He may be quite reluctant to sacrifice his independent life but sooner is better in this case. Because both of you have to undergo lots of stress while rearing child(s) and this is best time for you.<br />
</li>
<li><b> Determination</b><br />
Determine yourself to lead a <b>healthy pregnancy</b>. You need to gain at least 10-12 kilos of weight more or less throughout pregnancy. But definitely not more than that. Too much weight means too difficulty to<b> lose pregnancy weight</b>. And you may never fit into your best clothes that suit you now.</li>
</ol>
<div>
Now perhaps you can decide to take your relationship to the next level viz., to become parents. Remember this news can be one of the best news for your parents and in-laws too.</div>

How to face gender-biases in India?</h2>
I have grown up in a remote village. Remote in the sense the our relatives and neighbours were people who had a middle-class mindset, where my liberal father bowed down to the thoughts of having a male heir to his family. We are three sisters. The youngest one is the result of my parents desire to have a male child. All these were result of aggressive mentality of my fathers neighbours who take it for granted that since my father does not have a male heir, his lands, his properties are open to be used(abused!) by all and sundry. But ultimately, almighty has listened to the prayers of my parents and we now have a brother as well, who in by no means interested in keeping his lands(!) in village and look after. But his very presence has secured our family in several mannersI must admit.<br />
<br />
My in laws family had been boasting of not having a single child, till I and my parents exhibited immense joy and heartfelt happiness at the birth of my baby girl. They were bewildered and clueless only and helplessly had to join in the celebration! But that does not stop them commenting on each and every action of our daughter. When she shows anger while denied something, she is asked not to show anger because she is a girl. She cannot fight with her brothers while playing because she is a girl. She is praised for helping her mother in kitchen because she is suppposed to learn kitchen work. Only because of this I remain petrified for my annual visit to my husbands's paternal home where she is expected to behave a like an ideal girl only at the age of five.<br />
<br />
<h2>
Gender-bias and sexist ideologies in family set up</h2>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: purple;">Gender bias and sexist ideologies can prevail in the family in guise of affection</span>.<br />
All my efforts of keeping her away from the sexist remarks could not do very much. She has been growing up to be a sexist being only with her daily dose of TV viewing. She wants to be more fair, she will not learn driving a car, because girls have fun only while driving a scooty, she has an unending list of beauty products and what not, she wears a saree made by my dupattas and wants the curves! I don't know when the idiot box has become so smart to take the responsibilty of teaching the children. And how he teaches!<br />
<br />
Our TV set now returned to the pre-independant era, where in the name of reality all retro activities happen, and in between the sas-bahu-sautan cat-fights you get to watch skimpy women dragged to men just by the smell of a deodorant, and she is ready to (z)attck him even with a twosome! <br />
<br />
<h2>
For those who still wants to grow their girl childs without sexist ideologies here are some tips</h2>
<br />
<ol style="text-align: left;">
<li>Let her watch TV, but talk to her to know what she is learning from TV.</li>
<li>Please do not buy her sex defining dresses. Frocks are fine, but curve-defining Little dress should be avoided.(My daughter is a bit unhappy for this, but I can compensate her with something else).</li>
<li>Let her participate in more and more activities.</li>
<li>If you have time then spend it with her. Say her stories of brave women. </li>
<li>If there are nannies and grand parents in the family or any member who is against the liberal upbringing of girl child, keep an eye on them and don't let your daughter fall prey to their ideologies.</li>
<li>Baby girl love to dress up. But stay clear away from the kind of baby make-up products and too girly dresses. </li>
<li>Encourage her to play with unisex toys. Skinny Barby, Blithe girls and their make up boxes, Hana Mantana items are enough to train your daughter to be a glam doll only. Instead of becoming a pampered, high-maintenance girl let her become tough enough to face the real world.</li>
</ol>

But the heat is ready to scorch you outside. India being a tropical country, the climate here is far from being pleasant in the hot summer days. Especially the northern heat wave is difficult to bear. But with little bit of planning you can make your summer pretty enjoyable though not rocking.<br />
<div style="color: #38761d;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="color: #38761d;"><span style="font-size: large;">Tips for the perfect summer wardrobe.</span></div><br />
It is said that the perfect way to make yourself happy is to wear a dress of your choice. When you wear something which makes you happy you will feel happy throughout the day. This summer get ready with some outfit that can never go wrong.<br />
<br />
<ul><li> Get yourself some stylish outfit in white. A white shirt, a white top, white kurti, white flowing dress, frock et all. Team your white top or kurti it up with a pair of blue jeans and you will be cynosure of all eyes.<br />
</li>
<li> Linen, cotton, lycra are the best fabric for the summer because they allow your skin to breathe when you sweat.<br />
</li>
<li>Say no to synthetic apparels because your skin suffers a lot under such clothes.<br />
</li>
<li> Keep a silk bandana handy to cover your head and hair while you are out in sun. When not in use tie it with your handbag or your waist. Its a style statement too.<br />
</li>
<li> If you love skin exposing outfits than a pair of shorts can do a wonderful job. But before plunging to a pair of shorts make sure that your legs are worth it!<br />
</li>
<li> If you love vibrant colours than buy colourful ganjees. pair them up with capri or leggings. Vibrant colours will help to look fresh even at the end of a hot summer day.</li>
<li>Flip-flops are a must have during summer. Invest on flip-fops in several colours. Or if you are miserly types than buy a few in earthy or brown colours that goes with almost all outfits. </li>
</ul><u style="color: #741b47;"><b>Skin care tip for this summer </b></u>. Always keep dozens of face wipes in your bag. Buy those that comes with added fragrance or just keep a spray bottle of rose water to spray on the wipes before you wipe your face neck and of course your hands!</div>Online Assamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04502105062840277481noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2121626100418510884.post-223409290818637412011-01-23T02:09:00.000-08:002011-07-17T23:20:30.496-07:00The craving for a baby boy: How to get a child of prefered gender: the hottest trend PGD<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<span id="ContentPlaceHolder1_lblDescription" style="color: darkblue;">The crave for a baby or male heir is not new in India. In a patriarchal society almost every parent want to leave their family property to their male heir. Some even adopt a baby boy even though they have a girl child. The govt of India is providing all kinds of support to the those parents who have single girl child. But while the rural India is getting themselves educated and the urban India, and those who can shell out their disposable income are slowly heading to the new age gender selection process, and more open minded. </span><br />
<br />
<span id="ContentPlaceHolder1_lblDescription" style="color: darkblue;">So, abortions, recurrent <a href="http://healthylifestylishway.blogspot.com/2011/07/how-to-prepare-for-healthy-pregnancy.html"><b>pregnancies</b></a> and MTPs and bribing Medical practitioners for getting an USG done to detect the gender etc. are all passe. Now comes the latest version of Gender detection or gender selection process. This is Preimplementation Genetic Diagnosis or PGD to put simply.</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
<span id="ContentPlaceHolder1_lblDescription" style="color: darkblue;">PGD is the simple and costly (cost effective!!!)solution to the question <b>how can I determine the gender of my child</b>. I am saying it cost effective because though it costs a bomb for a prospective couple it saves them from undesired abortion and hence the health of the mother. India's ace badminton player Saina Nehwal confesses that her granny did not show up to bless the newborn till the would be player grows to be an one month old!! I remeber my mom always complaining that my dad never wanted the third girl in the family, though he is now over-dotting to his brilliant daughter. </span><br />
<br />
<span id="ContentPlaceHolder1_lblDescription" style="color: darkblue;"> <i><u><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-size: large;"><b>What is PGD? How it is implemented to get the desired result?</b></span></u></i> <br />
The Preimplementation Genetic Diagnosis method, is the technology used is conception through <b>Invitro-fertilisation</b>. An early stage gentic investigation is done to determine the sex of the embrios which are produced through IVF technology. This investigation made by the specialists helps to find out the gender of the embriyos. </span><br />
<span id="ContentPlaceHolder1_lblDescription" style="color: darkblue;"><b>The process of PGD </b>is apparently simple and effective. Because the egg-cells are fertilised by the sperm outside the human body only through IVF. And after the embryos are created they are cultured in a laboratory for three days. When the cells are developed and multiplied into eight egg cells they are put under a powerful microscope. This microscope investigation detects the gender of the cells. And than the embryos of the desired gender are planted in the womb. </span><br />
<span id="ContentPlaceHolder1_lblDescription" style="color: darkblue;">So the luck factor is completely dismissed by this process.</span><br />
<br />
<span id="ContentPlaceHolder1_lblDescription" style="color: darkblue;">In India the process of PGD is not available, because Indian law does not permit to detect gender of the foetus. The PGD is available in Thailand, because gender detection is not a punishable crime there. Couples across the world fly to Bangkok to get PGD done so that they can balance their family with a boy or a girl. But Indian couple according to sources prefer only for boy. And statistics show that every third couple visiting Bangkok for a PGD is an India wishing a baby boy. Along with being the hottest fun travel destination Bangkok and Thailand are becoming the new holiday destinations for married couple expecting baby boys. Holiday of one week is enough to get the PGD process done. So the <b>time involves in PGD </b>is suitable enough for a holidaying couple.</span><br />
<br />
<span id="ContentPlaceHolder1_lblDescription" style="color: darkblue;">The cost of PGD: The Preimplementation Genetic Diagnosis costs around $9,000. And that too excluding the flight fares to and from Bangkok. But Indian couples seem to be indifferent to the cost. And why should they. this will allow them an insurance for life in the form of a male heir... </span></div>

And it is playing spoil-sport to your hair too! It looks lovely when keep hair open and it adds warmth to our being. But chilling winter-breeze is not just cooperating. Party seaon is on and so is experimenting with hair and looks. So here are <b>some tips to keep hair healthy during winter. </b></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #351c75; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br />
</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #351c75; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Take warm bath but use only room temperature water for washing your mane. People tend to wash hair with the same hot/very warm water that they use to wash body during winter. But if you want not to destry the texture of your hair than stop using hot water to your hair. The hot water robs off the natural oil from our glands and hair becomes dry and rough.</div><div style="background-color: white;"><br />
</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #351c75; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Winter makes us lazy. We need more care, but chill does not allow us to use cold water more often. Hence the same person who washes hair daily in the summer tends to wash hair only once or twice a week. This makes hair dirty and easy prey of dandruff. If you do not use any head cover scarf or bandana during day time then make it point to wash your hair three times a week.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #351c75; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #351c75; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Using a conditioner after each hair-wash is a must. This helps to keep our hair soft and more manageable. </span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #351c75; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #351c75; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Oiling your hair regularly is a good idea. It helps in blood circulation in the scalp and your hair feel rejuvinated. </span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #351c75; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />

Winter is not just the time when you hide yourself in some sacklike warm clothes or remain indoors to stay away from cold. Winter is also party and fun time and time to celevrate health. But keeping healthy during winter is a bit tough. You get catched by flu and cold easily, kids too become too tough to handle because of cgilling weather.<br />
<br />
But hey , by little planning you can enjoy the winter season up to the hilt. I mean like the way you love to.<br />
Here are some easy tips to handle winter worries and reamin healthy and stylish too.<br />
<br />
Smartly switch over to Warm clothes. When winter is coming we enjoy it so much that we tend to go out in the evening without proper clothing. Sudden bouts of hot weather and remaining inside during the warm evenings prevent us from knowing that it is winter actually. But it is necessary to know and feel the change of season so that your body gets accustomed to the cooler weather gradually.<br />
<br />
For this get dressed accordingly, like full-sleeved Tees slightly warmer clothes etc while going out. Do not let yourself indulge in the cool weather without enough protection.<br />
<br />
Take care of your Food :<br />
1.When winter is coming or as it is already there have enough off dry fruits,. Dry fruits like almonds, cashew nuts etc are good to keep you warm.<br />
2. Start taking Chavanprash every morning , if possible with warm milk.<br />
3.1 tsp of Almond oil mixed with a glass of warm milk does excellent to keep you healthy during winter.<br />
4. Winter fruits like orange, olive etc are great to provide you the essential nutrients and Vitamin C.They keep you free from cold.<br />
<b><br />
</b><br />
<b>Invest on Good Winter Clothes</b><br />
<br />
<ol><li>Open your closet and trunks to see what the the winter clothes that you can use this time too. For kids there is a possiblity that they have outgrown their last years clothes, but with little innovation you can try them on younger kids. </li>
<li>Start shopping for warm clothes before the actual season comes. Or at least plan what you and your family members would want.</li>
<li>Try different brands and outlets, compare price of the same winter clothes. Some brands offers great discounts during autumn for winter clothes. So planning early will help you to save money. </li>
<li>Innvest on some knitted cotton Jackets for kids. During day time when temperature is not low but wind is not bearable such knitted jackets come handy.</li>

<br />
Tension and health walk hand in hand in modern life. we somehow develop the habbit of getting overstressed throughout the 24 hours of the day. Even our dreams and nightmares reflect our stressful lives.<br />
<br />
We believe that without being tensed we cannot solve our problems. We get tensed when we have kids, we are overstressed when do not have kids. We have dirty clothes to clean, we have unmanned house, hair, dandruff, tanned skin, Homework of kids, smaller kids to get potty trained, in-laws, offices with deadlines, friends who are smarter than ourselves and have better cars and gadgets than ours!!!<br />
<br />
<b>SO how not to get stressed!!</b><br />
<br />
I believe that we should draw a line when to stop worrying!<br />
<br />
Cultivate the habit of prayer. Everyday prayer will teach you to depend on a superpower who does the best even when you fail. Believe that everything happens when God wishes.<br />
<br />
Do not keep works pending. Pending works means headache. You cannot enjoy life when there are works to be done.<br />
<br />
But don't get works overpower you. You have every right to enjoy life.<br />
<br />
Save little minutes. We waste lots of time viewing TV ads, unnecessary shows etc. <br />
<br />
Always list your items before going out for shopping. This way you will save lots of time worrying what more to buy. <br />
<br />
Consult your doctor when you feel that sleep is eluding you for several consecutive nights.<br />
<br />
Kids are kids anyways, everyone with kids will understand your situation.<br />
<br />
Do not hesitate to ask for help when people are around.<br />
<br />

We get bored in our day to day life, we do not find time to pursue our hobbies, and we do not find time even to relax and enjoy the beauty of natue. No matter whether you are going to spend time in hills or near a beach or a river enjoying nature is the ultimate aim of our Holiday trips.<br />

<div>
Everybody wants to look beautiful but no one likes to show that theyr are made up. A complement on beautiful skin or bright complexion is the most desired one among young girls. To add to this if you have a scar or blemish free skin than you don't need to worry at all except for time to time caring of skin. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
To look beautiful naturally and to <a href="http://www.indiastudychannel.com/resources/143636-How-make-your-skin-lighter-naturally.aspx"><b>make your skin lighter naturally</b></a> is not an impossible task, but quite a task actually. Skin-care products are not always good even if you buy them from renowned brands. And at the same time some basic ingredients picked from your kitchen garden or kitchen cabinet can do wonders!!</div>
<div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div>
<span style="color: #134f5c; font-size: large;"><b style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What is Natural Make-up</b></span><br />
<div>
Natural Make up means taking care of your skin by natural elements. Beauty and cosmatic product companies use natural ingredients, but in the process of packaging and preserving they use lots of chemicals which end up harming your skin. But Natural make up from renowned companies can assure you that your skin, hair and eyes are taken care of and you do not end up harming yourself. Though chemicals are used they are clinically tested . </div>
<div>
<u>my tip</u>: A good brand will mention all ingredients and amount on their labels. Don't just go by advertisements.</div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #351c75;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
<span style="color: #351c75; font-size: large;"><b> Natural ingredients you can use for Skin care:</b></span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;"> </span>a) <span style="font-size: small; font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Cleansing</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></span></b></span></div>
<div>
For cleansing you can use Curd. Soar curd mixed with Gram powder(besan) is an amazing paste to cleanse your skin from dirts. And your skin's natural moisture will remain intact.</div>
<div>
Washing your face and neck several times a day is a must. But remember to use moisturiser after every wash.</div>
<div>
After a day's work wash your face and limbs with soap and water. Using soap is not bad for your skin if you use it in the right way.</div>
<div>
Tomato juice is a very good cleanser, but use it only on washed face. </div>
<div>
b) <b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Moisturising</span></b></div>
<div>
Moisturising is a very much important part of Skin care. At home use glycerine with lemon juice to give your skin a natural moisturiser.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
c)<b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Toning </span></b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Cucumber juice is an excellent toner. You can keep it refridgerated befor use and while applying dip cotton balls and rub gently on your face and neck.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Alternatively use Rose water for the same purpose and in the same way.</div>
<div>
d)<b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Scrubbing</span></b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Scrubbing is very important part of cleaning and caring. Because no soap or face wash can exfoliate the dead cells and dirt from your skin. So you need to clean your skin deeply. The right way is to use the right kind of ingredient to exfoliate your skin. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
If you have normal skin than use curd with besan or oatmeal and apply all over skin. Let dry. Apply water and rub off after 15 minutes.</div>
<div>
Sugar and lemon juice also works as exfoliator. </div>

</div><div style="color: purple; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Diwali is right here and winter is not far. With festivities fun and frolic skin crazy folks could perhaps feel that dry skin too is right there. Just after taking a shower we can feel that we need more and more moisturiser to make our skin soft.</div><div style="color: purple; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div style="color: purple; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div style="color: purple; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Winter skins can be real problem for those who have dry to normal skin.. Even oily skins can be problem during winter because greasy scalp and skin give way to acnes and pimples. To double the problem there are winter wears which cause allergy for many.</div><div style="color: purple; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div style="color: purple; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">But with little effort you can have beautiful and healthy skin, which will make everyone believe that it is actually spring not winter. Dryness, lack of moisture, pimples etc will not be there. But the early care of autumn is must for having a glowing skin at winter.</div><div style="color: purple; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br />
</div><div style="color: purple; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><b><h2>Have glowing skin in the winter</h2></b></div><ul style="color: purple; font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><li> Keep a large bowl or water at your bedroom every night. This bowl will ensure right flow of oxygen to your skin. To get rid of dry patches this works great.</li>
<li>Have a glass of warm water first thing in the morning. Add a dash of lemon and a spoon of honey to it. Your system will be cleaned and you will have glowing skin.</li>
<li>To have bright and smooth skin external use of Honey and lemon is great. Mix equal part of honey and lemon juice. Rub all over your skin. When it gets dry wash off with cold water. See the difference.</li>
<li>To get luscious skin mix equal part of glycerin, sugar and lemon juice. Apply with a cotton ball. Wash with cool water after fifteen minutes. This works as natural moisturiser.</li>
<li> Have a fistful of dry fruits every morning in your breakfast platter. This will supply you essential nutrients to <b>keep healthy skin during winter.</b></li>
<li>Keep a lip balm handy at your bag, and rub occasionally. At home apply Desi ghee during night <b>to repair chapped lips.</b></li>
<li>Rub generous amount of hand lotion each time you wash your hands and feet. However washing hands frequently is not a good idea during winter, beacuse it robs off your natural moisture.</li>
<li> Start applying the right night massage cream your skin before going to bed.</li>
<li>Our humble petrolium jelly is very good for your heels, elbows and knees.</li>
<li>Before taking bath massage your skin with baby oil. This is a sure shot way to<b>keep your skin healthy and baby soft</b>.</li>

But if one wants to maintain good health throughout life they are left with a little choices. Most of our diseases are now result of wrong lifestyle choices. Here is a simple analysis.<br />
<br />
We love fun, we love parties, so do our kids and partners. When we plan our parties, especially at weekends we do it because we can sleep till mid days the next day after the party night. This slowly becomes a habit. And we start sacrificing our <b> good-night sleeps</b> for the sake of fun.<br />
<br />
Shopping comes to a close second in the list of things which brings imbalance to makes our healthy lifestyle. I personally noticed when shopping becomes a habit you cannot do without it. Shopaholism a mental condition when you just think of shopping at the hours you are awake. We are so obsessed with shopping ideas that other activities like normal daytime nap, fun-time with kids, their activities, simple pleasures like gardening etc are ignored and we are just thinking of shopping and discounts. So draw a line of limit to yourself . And discuss the matter with family and spouse when you feel that you are obsessed with shopping.<br />
<br />
An evening stroll or brisk walk is best thing for unwinding your nerves after a hard day at work or just a simple boring day at home. Watch your surrounding simply covered with the soft cover of darkness, and feel relaxed. Feeling united with nature is best thing to prevent mental stress. <br />
<br />
Kids are mostly impish and hard to tackle. They keep us on the tows. But the best thing here to prevent stress of rearing childs is that love the job. When you are with kids <b> try thinking like kids</b> . This makes things easier enough. So when they spill the milk or health drink, instead of getting angry have a hearty laugh. Watch your anger melting away with their smiles. <br />
<br />
Keep cooking to the minimum as a daily affair. When you have enough assistance then only cook complicated dishes. Otherwise learn to enjoy simple meals. Do not buy <b>instant packed foods </b>. They will add to calories and cholestarol though they are loaded with taste. Today supermarkets are flooded with ready to with spicy Indian delicacies but beware of all these. Control your taste buds. They are worse than street foods.<br />
<br />
<my healthy="" lifestyle="" tip=""> <b> My healthylifestyle tip </b> is if you cannot do without tasty food cook them weekly. This will save your labour and you and your family will wait for that day eagarly. </my>Online Assamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04502105062840277481noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2121626100418510884.post-89776484075313167532010-10-16T04:22:00.000-07:002010-10-16T04:33:13.216-07:00How Can I maintain health during this festive season<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

Indulge in good food, street food, high-cal food ... I mean all kind of extravaganzas.Be it home cooked food , the cook will definitely add some sinful means to increase the taste and the impress the food loving junta. But be careful or get ready to stoop on another few sticky kilos to your waistline!<br />
<br />
My way to remain healthy during the festive season is to indulge once or twice during the festive days. Those who keep fast during Navratri should reduce oily varieties. Eating lots dip-fried items after fast is the worst crime one commits against self. So if you keep fast break it with a glass some slices of apples or your favourite fruit. Don't start grabbing your festive delicacies just after the fast. That way you will harm your bodies metabolism. Because during fast you stomach and the liver were taking rest and it takes some time to get back into action. So be gentle to your organs.<br />
<br />
Traditional festive dishes including preparations of navratri are loaded with calories. But you can prepare tasty alternatives with sprout salads, fruit salad with curd etc. They will be gentle to your stomach and will not add extra calories.<br />
<br />
In Kolkata, indulging in tyraditional misties(sweets) are something that people cannot do without. Besides these sweets there are phooskas, loochies, different preparations of meat and fish etc are available at anywhere and everywhere. So one needs to work hard to avoid those. But you can indulge in all these things. <b> My tip is have everything in small portions and to burn the calories take an extra hour of walk, of course with your friends, so that you don't skip the addas for the walk</b>.<br />
<br />
It is sure that you are going to a pandal hopping spree during nights but be careful to carry drinking water to keep yourself hydrated. Do not indulge in unnecessary snacking. Get your stomach full in the first half of the night with freshest of delicacies and ensure you burn till the last drop of calory untill midnight. <br />

Those beautyful damsels gyrating their bodies actually win your heart like nothing else. Tv has bough this phenomenal dance form to your drawing rooms, and you are at loss,"How is this possible".</div><div style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #38761d; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br />
</div><div style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #38761d; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I am sure every woman must have a secret desire to learn this beautiful and aesthetic dance form. They say that it is very beneficial for a woman healthwise. Virtually it prepare a woman for the process of natural child birth. So what else can be more preferable than this oh-so-beautiful dance form. Because by learning Belly-dancing if you can give birth to a healthy baby without hurting yourself by the knives than why undergo those boring exercises!!</div><div style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #38761d; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br />
</div><div style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #38761d; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">But since belly dancing is comparatively new at Indian towns(yes TV has bought it to your living rooms )but you cannot learn it like you can do the Indian dance forms. In India you can learn our own classical dance forms and now also Creative dance( which is a pseudo-name for Hindi film song and the performance on it). at everywhere. At least you can find out a good teacher who has a school at your locality.</div><div style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #38761d; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br />
</div><div style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #38761d; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">But imagine you are not so young, but badly want to <b>learn belly-dancing</b> than what can you do. First of all you can expect a good laugh from your spouse or partner! But hold on ! I have a way and a very good way. Just tune into your TV. Yes, it is as simple as that.

From dressing to decoration, from choldren to elderly people everyone love to splurge on ethinic and traditional outfits. Sarees, lehengas, cholis, ghaghra, they all have been evolutionized to cater the customers of these fast pace world, who would love to look traditional every inch without compromising the trend as well as comfortability factors. So we get pinned up sarees ready to wear, light weight ghaghras and everythinh taht will keep your style quotient intact!<br />
<br />
This is that time of the year when any given amount to shop for will be insufficient. The coming Durgapuja and Navaratri demands you minimum half a dozen brand new outfits for each of the family members to wear duting the festive days. <b>My tip is to buy those outfits which you can mix and match with other outfits</b>.<br />
<br />
<br />
Children are now very much style and fashion conscious. And why not? After all they are growing up with a healthy dose of Ginni and Johnies, Lilliput and Catmosses! So by time they are 3 plus they are likely to develop a style of their own. So you have no option left than to support their style mania!<br />
<br />
<b>My tip is take them into confidence and ask for suggestions while buying your own clothes.</b> They will come up with amazing suggestions and that way way will open themselves up for your suggestions too!<br />
<br />
Men can be quite fussy while choosing their clothes. Anyway brands are there to help you for choosing men's clothes. But for upcoming festivels pick up one or two traditional dresses which will come handy during the wedding season just following the festivels!<br />
<br />
<b>My tip is pick designer Sherwani for the most auspicious moment you are looking forward and get it customised according to your choice.</b> Along with it pick one or two sets of traditional kurtas in silk or batique or kalamkari print which you can team up with a pair of jeans too!Online Assamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04502105062840277481noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2121626100418510884.post-31163746469030141372010-10-04T03:29:00.000-07:002011-08-19T22:16:18.630-07:00My experience with Home Town Mall<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

<span style="font-size: small;"><a href="http://shoppingkolkata.blogspot.com/2011/04/axis-mall-in-new-town-kolkata-review.html">Home Town Mall</a> is my favourite destination for everything related to Home needs. Be it bedroom, bathroom or kitchen Home town can be your one stop shopping destination for everything that you imagine for your home. Only condition is "you have to have a home".</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #38761d; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #38761d; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">The first time I visited Home Town, Kolkata at Rajarhat(New Town ) is when I had nothing to do but to see waht they have! And imagine I spend half of the day at the Home superstore only watching the bedroom sets displayed at Home town mall. Beds both Kingsize and queensize, in various designs, along with trendy Ward-robe and dressing table make foundation of a basic bedroom set up. Choose one from them and now get set to visit other sections to complete the look of your bedroom.</span></div>

</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #38761d; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">My choice was an <b>Impiana 3 door ward-robe</b> which I purchased at an unbelievable price of just Rs.16,000.00. But if it were a <b>festive occasion be </b>sure to purchase items at even better price!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #38761d; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #38761d; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">My other favourite section in Home town mall is the top floor that is dedicated to relaxation. Lawn carpets, swings of different sizes and shapes, Reclining chairs, sofas, Dining sets at amazing price you name it they have it. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #38761d; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #38761d; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">I pretty loved the kitchen and bathroom styles there. Modular kitchens at different price range to suit different needs from rich to opulent are available at the Home town mall. If you are going to set a new home than stop mall hopping and get everything from containers to strainers at Home Town mall kitchen section.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #38761d; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">The most luxurious section is the Living room sets. From TV units, to LCDs, from luxurious sofas to chandeliers the display sets themselves will take you to another level of Home decoration. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">My tip: Wait for festive days, national holidays, celebration days like valentines day etc to avail great discounts on their price. Happy shopping!!So shop till you drop!</span></span></div>
