Are Germs Our Friends Or Enemies?
I am a mother of a two-year-old and am completely losing my head over whether I should get my little cherub vaccinated? The questions that keep me busy are whether I should believe “Big Pharma” and the medical advice passed on for ages that says vaccinations are a must for fighting against germs that cause disease in our bodies or take a more holistic view which posits that germs are not the cause of disease but an unhealthy internal ecosystem. I am also a seeker of answers to bigger issues related to disease- Are germs the sole cause of dangerous diseases or they have been given credit for too much? Or in short, are germs our real enemies? This is the reason why I decided to delve deep into the ‘germ' dogmas that require an urgent re-look. The Germ Theory Most of us have heard of the French biologist Louis Pasteur. He was the scientist who postulated that germs cause disease. He,in fact, came up with the Germ theory in the 1850s which is a simple st
How To Interpret Thyroid From Nature’s Point Of View?
Hormones secreted by the thyroid help maintain the brain, heart, muscles, and other organs, and help the body to use energy properly. So when something goes awry that leads to an underactive or overactive thyroid, your metabolism either revs up too high or slows way down. Hypothyroidism, also called underactive thyroid or low thyroid, is a condition in which your thyroid gland doesn't produce enough of certain important hormones. It upsets the normal balance of chemical reactions in your body. Similarly, hyperthyroidismis the condition when the thyroid gland is overactive & it makes excessive amounts of hormones. Whenever our body is out of balance, it indicates to us through an illness or disease. Whichever type of thyroid it is, it is body's way of indicating to us that the hormones are out of balance. Our body always works for us to be in good health. We just have to support it correctly & this can be done by staying in-sync with nature. Chemicals
Summer time - Easy hacks to let off steam naturally
Summers during my childhood were the season of five rupee ice creams and lying under the ceiling fan on the cool floor after a long day of outside play. But nowadays, it is truly an inconvenience trying to keep cool. The heat and humidity can make you feel drowsy, like a lizard in the sun and it seriously cuts back my productive time. This discomfort from the heat is the worst during the night time, and it interferes with my sleep cycle. But like many people nowadays, I hesitate to turn on the AC, which often makes use of fuels like Hydro Fluro carbons that can be a thousand times more damaging to the environment than CO2. Besides, AC is not conducive to health too. And that got me thinking: why not try and repurpose some of my childhood techniques to stay cool as an adult? Here are some cheap and environment-friendly ways to reduce AC usage and keep your electric bill costs down. Learn how to use your windows: Heat coming in through windows makes up about half

Garbh Sanskar: Recipe to a Happy Pregnancy
We all are aware of the story of the Mahabharata, wherein Arjuna narrated to Subhadra the art of breaking into the Chakravyu when Abhimanyu was in her womb. Later Abhimanyu could use this technique during warfare. This narration from the Mahabharata teaches us how receptive our unborn are when they are still inside the womb! Another mythological story of Garbh Sanskar is how beautifully Ashtavakra's mother, Sujata, learnt about the art of knowing more things. Sujata started listening to discourses for theintellectual and spiritual growth of her child right from the womb so that the unborn could perceive more knowledge. Garbh Sankar means the education and values we inculcate in our kids when they are leaving their foetal life. We know about some facts like how the child's mind starts conceiving things even in the foetal state. That is why doctors advise a lot on staying healthier and happier during the ante-natal period.

Fat is oil. But this may lead one to think that it is only the oil which is present in one's food that fattens. It is not so.

Let us see what the Contact Lens has in store for the user. Contact lenses are thin saucer-like lenses made of synthetic material which are fitted on the eye itself over the corneal surface. It is true that they are of lens power compared to the conventional lens.
