According to several recent studies alcohol seem to be good for the brain. Even if the immediate effects of alcohol may be the opposite, in the long term researchers found it actually improves mental function.The effects of wine’s polyphenols on cognition are well known, but a new research has looked at the impact of alcohol itself. It reduces hardening of the arteries, thickening of the blood and inflammation, which will improve blood flow to your brain. However the timing and dosage is of major importance. Don’t drink 5 pints before business meeting :)
You don’t have to sit back and just passively put up with insects, particularly those that like to bite like mosquitoes or wasps. Eat asparagus and your sweat will expand an odor that repels insects. Or apply a piece of lemon oil to your skin.If you are bitten, there are natural substances to soothe the irritation. Aloe vera has astonishing powers of soothing skin disorders. It is available in forms for both internal and external application in most health and beauty stores. If you have one of these remarkable plants growing at home, cut the tip off one of the leaves. Put the pulp and juice to the itching or swollen area. Lightly boiled cabbage or leek makes an excellent analgesic poultice. Of course, if you are hiking in the woods, you might have a little problem finding cabbage. Plantain is another plant that also works well. Cut it and rub it to get to the juice then apply it to the harmed area.
