VITAMIN D: SUNSHINE VS SUPPLEMENTS

What is Vitamin D?

Vitamin D is a nutrient that the body needs for many important functions, including bone health, muscle function, and immune system health. The body can make vitamin D when it is exposed to sunlight. However, many people do not get enough vitamin D from sunlight alone. In these cases, vitamin D supplements can be used to increase vitamin D levels.

The difference between Vitamin D from sunshine and Vitamin D from supplements

There are several differences between vitamin D from sunshine and vitamin D from supplements. First, the amount of vitamin D that the body makes from sunlight varies depending on a number of factors, including the time of day, the season, the amount of skin that is exposed to the sun, and the use of sunscreen. In contrast, the amount of vitamin D in a supplement is consistent from dose to dose.

Overall, there are both similarities and differences between vitamin D from sunshine and vitamin D from supplements. The best way to get vitamin D is through a combination of sunlight exposure and vitamin D supplements. Sunlight exposure is important because it helps the body to make its own vitamin D. However, vitamin D supplements may be necessary for people who do not get enough sunlight exposure or who have difficulty absorbing vitamin D from sunlight.

If you are considering taking vitamin D supplements, talk to your doctor to determine the right dose for you. Vitamin D supplements can be safely taken by most people. However, high doses of vitamin D can be harmful. Your doctor can help you to determine if vitamin D supplements are right for you and can help you to choose the right dose.

THE HEALTH DIARIES

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT FOLIC ACID AND ITS BENEFITS

Folic acid is a water-soluble B vitamin that is essential for human health. It is also known as vitamin B9. Folic acid is important for the growth and development of red blood cells, for the production of DNA and RNA, and for the function of the nervous system.

Folate is found naturally in some foods, such as leafy green vegetables, beans, and citrus fruits. It is also added to some foods, such as breakfast cereals, breads, and pastas. Folic acid is also available as a dietary supplement.

The recommended daily intake of folic acid for adults is 400 micrograms (mcg). Women who are pregnant or trying to become pregnant should take 600 mcg of folic acid daily.

Folic acid deficiency can cause a number of health problems, including anemia, birth defects, and neural tube defects. Neural tube defects are birth defects that occur when the neural tube does not close properly during early pregnancy. Neural tube defects can include spina bifida and anencephaly.

Folic acid deficiency can be prevented by eating a healthy diet that includes plenty of folate-rich foods. Women who are pregnant or trying to become pregnant should take a daily supplement of folic acid.

Folic acid is an important nutrient that plays a vital role in human health. It is important to get enough folic acid from food or supplements to prevent health problems.

Here are some of the benefits of folic acid:

● Prevents neural tube defects. Folic acid is most well-known for its ability to prevent neural tube defects, such as spina bifida and anencephaly. These are serious birth defects that can occur when the neural tube does not close properly during early pregnancy. Neural tube defects can lead to lifelong disabilities, so it is important for women to get enough folic acid before and during pregnancy.

● Helps prevent heart disease. Folic acid may help prevent heart disease by reducing levels of homocysteine, an amino acid that has been linked to an increased risk of heart disease.

● May help prevent cancer. Some studies have shown that folic acid may help prevent certain types of cancer, such as colon cancer and cervical cancer. However, more research is needed to confirm these findings.

● May help prevent birth defects in future pregnancies. Women who have had a child with a neural tube defect are at an increased risk of having another child with a neural tube defect. Taking folic acid before and during pregnancy can help reduce this risk.

● May help prevent Alzheimer's disease. Some studies have shown that folic acid may help protect against Alzheimer's disease. However, more research is needed to confirm these findings.

● May help improve mood. Some studies have shown that folic acid may help improve mood and reduce the risk of depression. However, more research is needed to confirm these findings.

Folic acid is a safe and essential nutrient. However, taking too much folic acid can cause side effects, such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. It is important to talk to your doctor before taking any supplements, including folic acid.

Folic acid is an important nutrient that plays a vital role in human health. It is important to get enough folic acid from food or supplements to prevent health problems.

KEEP ON TRYING

Try again. Fail again. Fail better.

Success is most often achieved by those who know that failure is inevitable.

Everything you want is on the other side of fear.

Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly.

Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising every time we fail.

Live the life you love. Love the life you live.

It’s fine to celebrate success but it is more important to heed the lessons of failure.

THE USE OF STEROIDS AND THEIR NEGATIVE IMPACT ON ATHLETES

Steroids are a class of drugs that are used to build muscle mass and strength. They are often used by athletes who want to improve their performance. However, steroids can have serious negative impacts on athletes, both physically and mentally.

One of the most serious risks of steroid use is heart disease. Steroids can increase the risk of heart attack and stroke by raising blood pressure and cholesterol levels. They can also damage the heart muscle.

Steroids can also damage the liver. They can cause liver tumors and cirrhosis, a condition in which the liver becomes scarred. Cirrhosis can lead to liver failure.

Steroids can also damage the reproductive system. In men, they can cause infertility, impotence, and shrinking of the testicles. In women, they can cause menstrual irregularities, infertility, and clitoral enlargement.

Steroids can also cause mental health problems, such as aggression, depression, and anxiety. They can also lead to addiction.

GUT HEALTH: THE POWERFUL BENEFITS OF POLYPHENOLS IN THE GUT MICROBIOME

Polyphenols are a plant compound that is found in vegetables and fruits. They have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties which help to support the body’s immune system and help fight toxins. Polyphenols can be harmful if consumed excessively.

However, it’s important to have a variety of different good and healthy nutrients to protect and improve our gut microbiome.

What are the benefits of polyphenols?

Polyphenols can boost health and longevity. They can also help reduce inflammation and have a positive effect on the body and the gut microbiome. They are also an excellent source of nutrients especially for our gut flora.

In addition, polyphenols improve the good bacteria which is the probiotic in the intestine area.

Where do we find polyphenols?

Polyphenols are found naturally in foods which are in:

● Fruits

● Vegetables

● Red wine

● Dark Chocolate

● Tea (Black)

● Berries, raspberry, strawberries, and blackberries

● Red grapes, (the compound that its called Reserverol found in red wine)

● Olive oil

● Coffee

There are 6 ways to add polyphenols into your diet which improves your gut microbiome:

1. Tea

Tea is a very important antioxidant. absorbing polyphenols, it releases and helps some strains of pathogenic bacteria in the gut microbiome. Black tea can help prevent obesity, due to its high concentration of polyphenols. Green tea also has similar benefits and also grasps the glucose within the body which helps to support weight loss.

2. Chocolate

Studies have shown that Dark chocolate is healthy and crucial for the gut as the cocoa within the chocolate contains prebiotic and it is an antioxidant. Moreover, Dark chocolate has 2 types of probiotic called bifidobacterium and lactobacillus. These bacteria have also proven to reduce cortisol levels.

3. Red Wine

Red wine contains polyphenols which help to promote gut bacteria. Studies have shown that drinking 1 glass of red wine per day for 4 weeks can help to reduce bad cholesterol which is LDL. On Another note, the polyphenols found in 2 glasses of red wine are equivalent to 2 cups of berries.

4. Coffee

Coffee contains a small amount of polyphenols and has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Moreover, there are some polyphenols in the coffee that can help burn fats while sleeping.

5. Fruits and vegetables

The most efficient way to absorb polyphenols is by consuming a variety of fruits and vegetables. Apple, plum and citruses are good examples of fruits that contain polyphenols because they are rich in antioxidants and are anti- inflammatory. In addition to that, plums are full of Flavonoids.

6. Olives

Lastly, olives and extra virgin olive oil contain high level polyphenols. They are a good source of healthy fats and oleic acid. Moreover, olive oil is a great anti-inflammatory as well as it helps to reduce the bad cholesterol LDL in the blood due to its fermentation In the gut.

HOW ARE THE NEURAL NETWORKS OF A NEWBORN FORMED AND WIRED?

Neural networks are a type of network of biological cells that are responsible for processing information in the brain. They are made up of billions of cells called neurons, which are connected to each other by synapses. When a neuron fires, it sends an electrical signal down its axon, which then travels across the synapse and triggers another neuron to fire. This process is repeated millions of times every second, allowing the brain to process information and make decisions.

Neural networks are not fully developed at birth. In fact, they continue to develop and change throughout childhood and adolescence. This process of development is called neuroplasticity. Neuroplasticity is the brain's ability to change and adapt in response to experience. It is what allows the brain to learn and grow.

The development of neural networks is influenced by a number of factors, including genetics, environment, and experience. Genetics plays a role in determining the number of neurons and synapses that are present in the brain. The environment, including the things that a baby sees, hears, and touches, also plays a role in shaping the development of neural networks. Experience, such as learning to walk or talk, also helps to shape the development of neural networks.

Three Mental Health Challenges Holding Back Tech Teams

After a turbulent few years, tech teams (both big and small) have come to a consensus: Employee mental well-being is critical for business success, especially in the fast-paced world of tech.

This explains the strong return on investment for employee mental health and well-being—on average, a return of $5.30 for every $1 spent. The realization that employee mental well-being is critical for business success has been a long time coming.
