How to Maintain Good Eye Health
Don’t take your eyes for granted. Protect your sight with these
six tips:
1. EAT FOR GOOD VISION
Protecting your eyes starts with
the food on your plate. Nutrients
such as omega-3 fatty acids, lutein,
zinc, and vitamins C and E might
help ward off age-related vision
problems such as macular degeneration and cataracts, studies show.
Regularly eating these foods can
help lead to good eye health:
Green, leafy vegetables such as
spinach, kale, and collards
Salmon, tuna, and other oily fish
Eggs, nuts, beans, and other non-
Loom Bands Could
Pose Health Risk
The latest craze among children of
creating loom bands could pose a
risk to their health if not used with
caution, doctors have warned.
Hundreds of youngsters have
taken to fixing together colourful
elastic bands to create the bracelets,
which have also been seen on highprofile figures such as the Duchess
of Cambridge.
But health professionals have
warned the bands could pose a risk
to circulation after a boy in Bristol
fell asleep with the bands wrapped
around his fingers.
Dr Anne-Marie Houlder, a senior GP,has said: “They could be a
choking hazard or cause circulatory problems if children swallow
or wrap them round their fingers for
any length of time. “Parents need to
be aware of the potential dangers if
children are left unattended.”
The bands have grown in popularity after a number of celebrities
were spotted wearing the bracelets
earlier this year, including Kate
Middleton who took to wearing one
during a tour of New Zealand, which
had been a gift from a little girl. 

99% to 100% of both UVA and
UVB rays. Wraparound lenses
help protect your eyes from the
side. Polarized lenses reduce glare
when driving.
If you wear contact lenses, some
offer UV protection. It’s still a good
idea to wear sunglasses for more
protection, though.
2. QUIT SMOKING
4. USE SAFETY EYEWEAR
Smoking makes you more likely
to get cataracts, optic nerve damage, and macular degeneration. If
you’ve tried to quit smoking before
and started smoking again, keep
trying. The more times you try to
quit smoking, the more likely you
are to succeed.
If you work with hazardous or
airborne materials on the job or at
home, wear safety glasses or protective goggles every time.
Certain sports such as ice hockey, racquetball, and lacrosse can
also lead to eye injury. Wear eye
protection (such as helmets with
protective face masks or sports goggles with polycarbonate lenses) to
shield your eyes.
3. WEAR SUNGLASSES
The right kind of sunglasses will
help protect your eyes from the
sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays.
Too much UV exposure makes
you more likely to get cataracts and
macular degeneration.
Choose sunglasses that block
5. LOOK AWAY FROM THE
COMPUTER SCREEN
Staring at a computer screen for
too long can cause:
Eyestrain
Blurry vision
Trouble focusing at a distance
Dry eyes
Headaches
Neck, back, and shoulder pain
Taking the following steps to
protect your eyes:
Make sure your glasses or contact lens prescription is up-to-date
and adequate for computer use.
Some people may need glasses
to help with contrast, glare, and eye
strain when using a computer.
Position your computer so that
your eyes are level with the top of
the monitor. This allows you to look
slightly down at the screen.
Try to avoid glare on your computer from windows and lights. Use
an anti-glare screen if needed.
Choose a comfortable, supportive chair. Position it so that your
feet are flat on the floor.
If your eyes are dry, blink more.
Every 20 minutes, rest your eyes by
looking 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
At least every 2 hours, get up and
take a 15-minute break. 
Nurses Should Adopt New Techniques For
Restraint In Mental Health Settings
The Department of Health wants
to change the way nurses and other
professionals care for mental health
patients in areas such as restraint
and the support of children and
young people.
Ministers are consulting on
plans to update the Code of Practice linked to the Mental Health
Act (1983), in part to take into account lessons learned from the
scandal at Winterbourne View, a
private hospital near Bristol where
some staff abused people with
learning disabilities.
The code – published in 2008 –
informs professionals such as nurses, doctors, police officers and legal
workers about the rights of patients
and their carers. However, it is outdated, and some patients and carers
find it difficult to understand, said
health and care services minister
Norman Lamb.
He added: ‘We are reviewing the
Code of Practice to make sure professionals, patients, relatives and
carers have clear up-to-date guidance on what people can expect
when they are detained under the

1. EAT ONLY WHEN YOU’RE
HUNGRY.
Many of us are lucky if we can
suck down a green juice while racing
to catch the subway to work or yoga.
But taking just a few minutes more
has huge digestive benefits. “When
we actually sit down to eat, we can
focus on the amount of food we are
putting into our bellies and on chewing it thoroughly,” Carlson says. As
for walking and eating? “Almost impossible,” she says. “People will
only chew a couple of bites before
swallowing, which causes the belly
to do more work than the teeth.”
The problem with eating when
you’re not hungry (aside from possible weight gain) is that it leaves you
feeling bloated and uncomfortable.
“Only when your stomach is truly
empty are your digestive enzymes
strong enough to thoroughly break
down your food,” Carlson explains.
“Really try and differentiate between eating out of necessity and
eating out of habit, and take three to
four hours between meals (the time
it takes to fully absorb your food),”
says Carlson. “It’ll make a huge difference in how you feel overall.”
Paying attention to the sensory
details of your food matters! If you’re
not actively smelling and appreciating the food you’re eating, your body
won’t either, Carlson says. When
you take time to soak in the smells,
textures, and tastes, your stomach
feels fuller after a meal, and you’ll
spend the rest of the day a whole lot
more satisfied.

crisis care and work to reduce the

If your food isn’t fresh, you won’t
feel so fresh after eating it, according to Ayurveda. That’s because it’s
lost its prana (“life force” in Sanskrit), which can leave you feeling
tired and sluggish, Carlson says.
So skip the heat-and-serve frozen
When you’re hydrated, it’s easier
for food to pass through the digestive system (not to mention that
you’ll feel fuller, faster). But pass
on the ice, Carlson says. “Cold water is actually pretty challenging to
digest,” she explains. “It takes the
body about 30 minutes to digest
warm water, and one hour to digest
cold.” That’s because the body has to
work overtime to heat up colder water before it can absorb it. (Bloating
expert and nutritionist Stephanie
Middleberg agrees.
6. AFTER MEALS, GIVE
YOURSELF A FEW MINUTES TO
RELAX, BREATHE, OR TAKE A
GENTLE WALK
Many of us pop our dishes in
the sink and are out the door before we’ve finished our last bite. But
shifting gears so quickly hinders the
There’s an Ayurvedic principle “when the sun is at its highest
point of the day, the digestive fire is
strongest,” says Carlson. “We are a
reflection of what’s happening in nature.” So do like the Europeans and
eat your biggest meal at lunch, giving your body plenty of time to fully
digest before going to bed, which is
when the digestive system effectively shuts down.
8. DRINK GINGER TEA.
It’s good for banishing bloating,
and ginger tea is also amazing after
a heavier meal, Carlson says, because it “helps to burn through the
sluggishness and headiness caused
by rich food.” Just don’t drink too
much, as ginger can be a “little too
fiery” for anyone with acid indigestion, she says. Try slowly sipping a
weakly brewed version right after
you eat.
9. UNPLUG WHILE YOU EAT.
Between the backlog of TV shows
on your DVR and checking Instagram (guilty!), it’s hard for any of
us to disconnect during mealtime.
But not only do screens keep us
from really paying attention to what
we’re eating, they also engage the
nervous system, which can cause
physical digestion to shut down,
Carlson says. 
Why People Lose Hair
In European Countries
Hair loss is a common problem in
UK, and the major reason for that is
the weather condition. The frequent
change in weather is not favourable
for hair- cold, wind, rain, bright sun
etc. Hair gets sensitive in the frequently changing weather and starts
falling. To prevent hair fall, it’s important to take extra care of hair.
Protection is the best option. Covering it when outdoors in extreme
weather, using conditioners after
shampooing and using protecting
products before styling, are the few
things which make a difference.
