Public Parks from boon to bane and boon again.

Image
In the late 70s, there was a huge clamor to create public parks in India, huge swaths of land lay empty and the growing population was demanding enclosed parks where one could walk in the serenity of nature or indulge in recreation without having to travel miles and also feel secure at the same time. Gate communities started writing to the government about how they had spaces earmarked for their won parks and also had the money to build them and all they needed was permission to build them without having to go through bureaucratic hoops that would result in wastage of time and also result in delays or even the death of the project itself. The result was there for all to see, by 1984 the parks were visible all over the major cities in India, be it Delhi, Mumbai, Mysore, Bengaluru, Chennai, Kolkata, and many more such metropolitan cities or ‘Mahanagar’ were now populated with public parks both big and small to bring in the much need move towards locality growth that heralds in a new

Fitness Freaks are going nuts over NUTS and there’s no stopping them

Image
Nuts are at the moment the most recommended health supplement; from doctors to fitness coaches and even nutritional articles everyone seems to be advocating them with gusto. Nuts were once just a snack lying about in the top drawers or brought out when drinks were to be had and there was no money for snacks. Over the past two years however there seems to have been an outbreak of advocacy for nuts, you cannot help but come across an article that will wax eloquent about advantages of nuts. If it is a sponsored article then you might be explained the advantages of one particular NUT over the others, whatever the scenario you could probably get irritated by the amount of nuts being thrust into your head but you can be sure the advocacy is digging its heels for the long haul. Nuts are full of good cholesterol, healthy fat, fiber and protein. Some nuts are great antioxidants and some are rich in minerals and vitamins. There are nuts that actually contain anti inflammatory omega-3s

Breakfast: should it have carbs or should it be a low carb high nutrition diet?

Image
The daily breakfast is going through a metamorphosis, a new breakfast diet plan pops up almost on a weekly basis. The debate is on and time is of the essence, the results unknown. Breakfast! Breakfast! Every parent shouts this out to a young child; it is after all the most important meal of the day. Most dinner time family conversations swirl around what the members would like to eat in the morning and how long it would take to make it. The issue though that has cropped up in 2019 is not about how important breakfast is: that has been established well and thorough, the point has very well hit home. The needling issue now is what your breakfast should contain. As the calorie conscious generation has grown, so has their concern for what and how much they put into their bodies, the surreptitiousness of a meal is probably at its least importance in human history. Most people are these days either filling up on carbs or on proteins and this where they are getting

It’s best you believe that fitness is also a part of your grooming regime

Image
Grooming for men has turned into a multi-million dollar industry and there is hardly any cosmetic product or procedure out there that does not cater to men or does not want to reel in male customer. Grooming was for long thought to be a female bastion and on the rare occasion that a male cosmetic product came out, the brand would have to sit in the trenches. The worst part was that men would have to hide their usage saying they are blessed with naturally good shiny hair, glowing flawless skin and no body hair, the web of lies was basically continental in proportions. In sharp contrast females would show off the best cosmetic products that they possessed and which liner or mascara they used was a party discussion add to this the bling factor and females could have an in-exhaustible repertoire of topics sprinkled with their favored products and designers. The male genome was basically relegated to look like a tree in the park beautiful yet neglected, pruned when required. By the ea

Health is Wealth and Mental Health is the El Dorado

Image
Let’s address the elephant in the room: Depression, the mere suggestion of the word causes one to shudder. The shuddering though is mostly limited to the Indian subcontinent, the West to the East have by and large accepted this mental health problem as a normality and have come up with a public health system that can tackle this fast spreading issue. In India depression was seen as a western ‘Disease’ and a rich man’s problem, however in early 2004 alarm bells sounded ringing when studies found that almost 4 per cent of the population was suffering from depression and by 2016 almost 42 percent corporate employees were suffering from mental health issues and depression, infact one survey even went on to claim that almost 80 per cent bank employees on or above the age of 40 had suffered a heart attack as a result of stress. For a country where the government estimates that 1 in 5 people in the country need counseling either psychiatric or psychological, India is alarmingly sh

The focus on nuts has led to a drop on the intake of seeds

Image
There has been a lot of focus on the intake of nuts in a diet and to some extent on fiber but seeds have been completely ignored leading to an immunity crisis. Dietary plans are the new fad, making the entire planet run around dieticians and health experts for a few minutes of advise so that they can look good for that perfect selfie on a holiday or that party/wedding or even for their loved ones. This dietary focus has left out essential diet components like fiber and seeds, recent bowel issues that people suffered were attributed to low amounts of fiber and hence the focus on inclusion of fiber in the diet has gone up manifold. The importance of seeds however has still not struck home and pretty soon we will see another immunity crisis that will then have to be rectified by the inclusion of seeds in the diet. It is quiet astonishing that every diet taken out somehow leaves out an essential nutrient and then you need to have a cataclysmic body event to rectify that particular
