Negative Body Image for Men: A Growing Problem


Believe it or not, a negative body image is not just a woman's problem. Increasingly, men are dissatisfied with one or more parts of their body. The media and a culture obsessed with perfection have defined what men and women are supposed to look like. In reality, few people-even models-meet those high, exacting standards. Unfortunately, some men will go to extremes to change their body based on unrealistic perceptions.
A negative self image, or fixation on perceived body flaws, can take a toll on a man's mental and physical health. Unfortunately, men tend not to discuss their concerns about body image. Their self-imposed silence leads to feelings of isolation, distress, depression, and anxiety. They are at increased risk for abusing anabolic steroids, which can lead to serious health problems. Eating orders in men are on the rise as well, and poor body image effects men's sexual well-being, potentially leading to aggressive or risky sexual behavior.
Mental health professionals call this disturbed body image dysmorphic disorder, or dysmorphophobia. Men who have muscle dysmorphia believe they are scrawny, especially in their abs, chest, shoulders, and arms. Despite excessive exercise, they don't believe they can build big muscles, much like people with anorexia believe that no matter how much they diet, they are still too fat.
In addition to muscle mass, men tend to fixate on several body zones.
  • Skin, usually due to acne or scarring
  • Thinning head hair
  • Body hair
  • Body odor and sweat
  • Nose size and shape
  • Genitals
You just can't change some things, at least not without surgery. However, simply eating a healthy diet and exercising regularly can give men a sense of control over their body image and instill feelings of well- being. Although six-pack abs might not be realistic, men can build abdominal muscle through exercise, which will also help shed abdominal fat. Exercise and fat loss together can improve the appearance of flabby abs. When lifting weights to build arm and shoulder muscles, men shouldn't neglect the triceps, the muscle in the back of the upper arm. Men need to work both biceps (the large muscle in front) and the triceps to create well-balanced muscle mass.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a type of psychotherapy, can help men develop realistic views of their appearance and to engage in positive, instead of critical, behaviors. In severe cases, antidepressants may help.

Winter Skin Remedies/Dry Skin Treatment

What is Winter Skin:

When you are outside, the cold temperaturesresult in a poor blood circulation in your facial skin. As a result yourskin does not get enough nutrients and oxygen and all the healthy, regenerative processes in your skinslow down. As a result,skin looses its healthy color and becomes dull or pale.

Already the waves of winter are making your skin all dried up that even the lotions and medicines have stopped providing a useful cure. In winters the skin becomes dry and irritated causing eczema.


Here are some skin care tips for making your skin comfortable in winter.

Winter Skin Care Tips:

1. One good option would be to put moisture back into the air. A humidifying system can help your skin remain supple instead of cracked and dry. You can buy a system from your local drug store.

2. Don’t say goodbye to your sunscreen just because summer is over. Before you leave your house, apply a sunscreen with at least an SPF of 15 or more. This will protect your skin from the elements. Alternatively, choose a product can combines a sunscreen with a moisturizer.

3. Applying moisturizer immediately after taking a shower or washing your face will help lock-in moisture.

4. Stash soothing lip balms in your purse, car, and desk to keep lips from chapping. Dr. Shamban says you can also apply few drops of olive oil mixed with few drops of honey to your lips for few minutes to hydrate
.
5. Although it doesn’t taste very great flaxseed oil can moisturize your body from the inside. Since it is rich in vital fatty acids it can do a lot for your overall health. It is available in oil form as well as in capsule form.

6. Gloves help in protecting your skin against dryness. Some people believe that if you wear a cotton mitten next to the skin and a woolen mitten over the cotton one, it keeps hands warm and dry.

7. Dr.Shamban says you should never shower, bath or wash your face with extremely hot water. It can not only break the capillaries in the face, but also break down the lipid barriers in the skin, which will lead to a loss of moisture.

8. Besides keeping you warm, a hat will hold in moisture and protect your scalp from dry air and flaking. Make sure your hat is not too tight and made of breathable material.

9. Just because it’s cold out doesn’t mean the sun isn’t strong, especially when it can reflect off snow. Dr. suggests applying an SPF 15-30 to your face (and hands if they’re exposed) about 30 minutes before going outside. Reapply if you’re spending the day outside.

10. Liquid foundation can actually freeze! “One of the benefits of using cream is that it will give your skinan extra protective layer and help keep the moisture in your skin

. What is Dry Skin:

Skin is the most important organ of our body whose care and health is very essential.Skin adopts weather effects frequently that can also result in harm to it. Specially winter season badly dries ourskin and snatches its attraction as well.

Dry skin is one of the most common skin problems. In order to stay soft and supple your skin needs to retain its natural moisture. But when exposed to direct sunlight in summer or harsh weather (cold and wind) in winter, when the central heating dries out the skin, it quickly loses its natural moisture and oils, becomes dry and chapped. 

Dry Skin Causes:

1. The oil glands do not supply enough lubrication to the skin. As a result, the skin becomesdehydrated

2. Skin gets exposed to the elements especially in winter. 

3. Dry skin could be due to a genetic condition. 

4. Deficiency of some minerals and vitamins also result in rough and dry skin

5. Environmental factors such as exposure to sun, wind, cold, chemicals, or cosmetics, or excessive bathing with harsh soaps.

6. Some shampoos could also cause your scalp and skin to dry out.

7. Conditions such as dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis, or seborrhea. 

Dry Skin Symptoms:

Signs and symptoms of dry skin depend on your age, your health status, your locale, the amount of time you spend outdoors and the cause of the problem.

* A feeling of skin tightness, especially after showering, bathing or swimming.
* Skin that appears shrunken or dehydrated.
Skin that feels and looks rough rather than smooth.
Itching that sometimes may be intense.
* Fine lines or cracks.
Redness. 

Home Remedies for Dry Skin:

1. Drink lots of water. It helps to keep your body hydrated and can alleviate dry skin to a great extent.

2. A warm glass of milk mixed with a teaspoon or two of almond oil, before bedtime, can work wonders.

3. Before hitting the showers, rub honey all over your body and leave it on for 5 to 10 minutes for a moisturizing feeling.

4. Try rubbing oatmeal on hands before washing.

5. Coconut or avocado oil is also really good for treating dry skin.

6. Glycerin oil is a good remedy for dry skin.

7. Petroleum jelly is one of the best remedies for dry lips, hands, and feet.

8. Include plenty of fruits into your diet.

9. Bananas can also be used to treat dry skin on your face and neck. Just mash a banana (ripe ones work better) and apply it like a face pack. After some time wash your face with warm water.

10. Get plenty of exercise as exercise helps to unblock your pores.

11. Quit smoking and see the difference.

12. Try to include spices such as turmeric, cumin, and coriander in your diet. They help to soothe and relieve dry skin.

Very Very Imp! Must Read and Plzzz Share It! Why coat apple fruits:

 

Very Very Imp! Must Read and Plzzz Share It!

Why coat apple fruits:


There are several reasons for coating apples. The main reasons are either for preservation, aesthetic (appearance) or the obvious one of replacing the natural wax.

The apples, naturally have a natural wax coating on their surface. This natural wax coating helps to protect the apple fruit from shriveling and weight loss. However, prior to packaging of the apple fruits, they are washed by scrubbing the surface to remove dirt and chemical residues (if they are not organic). This scrubbing removes approximately 50% of the natural wax coating.

To replace the natural wax coating, processors apply other recommended waxes on the surface of apples. The waxes applied on apples can either be animal wax, vegetable wax or mineral and synthetic wax. After applying wax, the fruits assumes glossy and firm appearance which is considered as an important quality in apples.

The distributors and sellers of apples can apply wax to improve appearance and increase visual freshness. This is very common practice especially in supermarkets.

The most common wax used on apples is a vegetable wax called canauba wax or shellac.


Ways of cleaning waxed apples

Obviously, it is a good practice to clean apples before eating. I would suggest cleaning with lukewarm water. Just clean them thoroughly to remove any surface wax. This would also help remove any dirt and chemical residues on the surface.

It is not advisable to use detergents even food grade types on porous fruits like apples.

Vinegar (acetic acid) can also do. Use a paper towel with a bit of vinegar to wipe the fruit before washing. Using vinegar wipes away the wax.

The other obvious way to ensure you do not consume the wax on the surface of apples is to remove the entire peel . This can be done by using either a fruit peeler or a knife. This comes at a cost since many people like the tartness and crispiness of the peel.

Home Remedies for Appetite Control

Home Remedies for Appetite Control

Controlling your appetite can be one of the biggest challenges of weight management. Hunger is your body’s way of telling you it’s received fewer calories than normal. It’s a natural process. It’s easy to think, when you’re hungry, that you need to eat. That’s not true. The key to weight loss is the reduction of calories: you must burn more calories than you consume. It’s simple math. There are things you can do at home that will fool your body, and control your appetite.

  1. Foods

    • Certain food and fluids, added to your diet, will naturally suppress your hunger. Filling your stomach with food that has few calories will turn off the hunger sensor. Water is a powerful appetite suppressant. When you first start to feel hungry, try drinking a quick eight ounces of water. This works almost every time.
      Next, you can try organic vegetable broth. It is available at most stores and has no artificial chemicals that will do more harm than good, such as MSG or yeast extract. It also has less salt. You can drink as much organic vegetable broth as it takes to quiet your stomach.
      Green leafy vegetables, such as lettuce or cabbage, are low in calories and high in water content, and are foods that you don’t need to regulate. Eat as much as you want. The calories are so low, it’s not necessary to count them.

    Exercise

    • The rule of thumb regarding exercise and appetite control is the harder you work, the less hungry you will be. Any exercise plan you choose should result in raising your body temperature. The best choices for appetite suppressant are aerobics, such as running. Start with 15-minute sessions several times a week and build until you’re working out at least 30 to 40 minutes at a time. Swimming is a poor choice for hunger control because you do not raise your body temperature when you swim.

    Herbal Supplements

    • Herbal supplements are a natural way to suppress your appetite. The long-term effects of some supplements are unknown. There are no herbal supplements approved by the FDA. However, evidence shows green tea to be an effective weight loss aid. Green Tea is available in tablet form, hot tea, or as an additive to some cold drinks. The University of Maryland Health Center states that green tea increases your metabolism and provides effective fat burning. Some side effects of green tea include bloating, indigestion and diarrhea.

    Warnings

    • Any plan to lose weight should start with a visit to your doctor. It important to determine if there are underlying conditions that will keep your from losing weight. If you are taking medication for any illness, be sure to ask your doctor before taking any supplements.

When We Brush Bleeding is Normal

 

When We Brush Bleeding is Normal



People sometimes believe that bleeding when brushing is normal. They say that their gums always bleed and so do their other family member’s. Are bleeding gums normal?
The short answer is NO! Healthy gums do not bleed with brushing or flossing. In fact, bleeding gums is a sign of gingivitis, which is an early stage of gum and bone (periodontal) disease. If you watch TV, you have heard of gingivitis. A multimillion- dollar industry surrounds various types of products that are purported to eliminate gingivitis. The problem is, most of the products don’t really work. They can make your mouth “feel” clean, but the source of the gingivitis remains. Here’s what you need to know:
1.Gingivitis is caused from an inflammation of the gum tissues. This inflammation can be caused from a bacterial infection or some other type of irritation. It is known that there are at least 11 different strains of bacteria that can cause gum and bone disease. These bacteria thrive in dark, moist areas, such as the gum tissues around the teeth. Our immune systems recognize that there is a problem and send out cells to get rid of the bacteria. Blood to the infected area is also increased to help flush away the invaders. However, if the invaders don’t go, our tissues become engorged with blood and our gums can bleed when we brush.
2.Bleeding is sometimes the “first alert” to more damaging problems arising, because gum and bone disease can exist in the absence of other noticeable symptoms, bleeding may be the only sign a person notices; until some destruction of bone has already occurred.
3.Brushing with a soft bristle brush or a soft bristle “power” brush and using dental floss can reduce plaque, which is a soft, sticky substance that forms on our teeth. Plaque is a breeding ground for bacteria.
4.Prescription products, such as medicinal mouth rinses and pastes can help. These provide ingredients known to reduce bacteria.
5.Professional cleaning or prophylaxis, where the dentist or hygienist removes plaque, calculus (also known as tartar-a hard deposit), and stains also reduces bacteria.
6.If bleeding continues, or if you have “pockets” that are 4mm or deeper around any of your teeth, root planning may be needed. Root planning is not the same as a professional cleaning. It is a more extensive procedure to rid the teeth of germs and deposits.
7.Since bleeding gums may be the first sign of a mouth infection, and since infections in the mouth are related to many chronic illnesses, such as diabetes and heart disease, a mouth infection is nothing to ignore.
There are sometimes other serious reasons for gums that bleed. These include blood disorders, clotting disorders, liver problems, kidney disorders, artery or capillary diseases, and diabetes and heart problems. Bleeding gums can also be the result of vitamin C and K deficiencies. Fungal infections are implicated with bleeding tissues, as well as certain medications such as aspirin and blood thinners.

What should you look for?

 Bleeding gum tissue upon brushing or flossing
 Red, tender, or swollen gums
 A bad taste in the mouth
 Recession of gums from the teeth
 Sensitive teeth
 Bad breath
If you have any of these symptoms, your dentist and hygienist can help. Despite the fact that many people think that gums that bleed are normal, we know that they are not.
