Hi..
Today is the International Day for the Elderly....
Get back to our childhood days once....remember asking grandma or grandpa to tell stories..remember sleeping on their laps...most happiest days in our lives...!!!
Still we have our grandparents taking care of us whenever we meet them...such is the love they show towards us...and we equally show the same...which is an everlasting relationship.
There are some unlucky grand ma's and grand pa's unable to feel the love of their own grand children.Thanks to some NGO's as they are taking care of some of them.We cannot actually know the reasons behind people sending their parents to "the home for elderly".
We should try and understand that we are very important to them and they need our love and care in this age.
Hope you think of this.......

WORLD HEART DAY............!!!!!!!

hi.....
Today is World Heart Day...!!!!
Most vital organs in our body are liver and heart.Liver doesn't show symptoms of damage initially after affecting but causes serious problems.Heart shows symptoms of degradation.
According to a survey,by 2010,46.9 million Indians will suffer from heart diseases!!!Most of the employees spend 10-12 hours at the work-place.Stress and strain and unhealthy eating habits during the work hours are contributing to early onset of disease.
Having a family history of heart ailments almost double the chances of a person facing similar health problems.Most people affected by heart disease are in their 60s.These risk factors cannot be controlled.
High blood sugar,high B.P,high cholesterol are some of the risk factors which can be controlled.Smoking,alcohol,stress and inactive lifestyle can be controlled.Excessive smoking can lead to heart failure and over consumption of alcohol can lead to a stroke.
Preventive measures include regular check-ups,consulting a doctor regularly after 30s helps in restoring heart to normal state if any damage is done already.Don't overeat,have meals on time and avoid eating late at night.Regular exercise helps to be fit and attain ideal body weight.Have low cholesterol diet which include oats,barley,etc.
Obesity is also major cause for strokes.If your weight is more than 10%of ideal body weight,you are heading for trouble.BMI(Body Mass Index) is a measure to show if we are obese or not.It is calculated by

BMI = ( kg/m² )	weight in kilograms
	————————————
	height in meters²

BMI	Weight Status
Below 18.5	Underweight
18.5 -24.9	Normal
25 - 29.9	Overweight
30 & Above	Obese

Also,heart disease is the leading cause of death in diabetes.Remember,"Laughing is a great workout for your heart!!!"

world alzheimer's day..........

hey .........
Today is World Alzheimer's day.......
Alzheimer's disease is concerned to brain....The main risk factor for Alzheimer's disease is increased age.It is a slowly progressive disease of the brain that is characterized by impairment of memory and eventually by disturbances in reasoning, planning, language, and perception.
Other risk factors for Alzheimer's disease include high blood pressure,Diabetes and elevated blood cholesterol.
Individuals who have completed less than eight years of education also have an increased risk for Alzheimer's disease. These factors increase the risk of Alzheimer's disease, but by no means do they mean that Alzheimer's disease is inevitable in persons with these factors.
Some symptoms include Memory loss,Difficulty performing familiar tasks,Poor or decreased judgment,etc.Safe environment must be provided for them.
ONLY reason I posted this is to know about the common disease as the age progresses.It is our duty to let our grand ma's and grand pa's know regarding this....allow them to eat only low cholesterol foods......
I feel this will be useful for us too in our lives..........:)

WORLD OZONE DAY......

Hey guys n gals.....
Today is world ozone day.....we are hearing from our childhood that ozone layer is getting depleted....this is not good for earth..blah blah blah.....
Heard it...left it ...right!!!!
But,this is the time we should seriously think of that.....
CFC'S are the main reason for this.....
US and twelve nations in Europe produce three quarters of the CFC's in the world.
Many products already contain components that use CFC's, it would be difficult if not impossible to eliminate those CFC's already in existence.
When people don't have even basic facilities....why destroy our atmosphere spending millions of dollars....it is time for us to think guys....
Shall we reduce CFC producing electronics or succumb to nature the way we are going now????
