How Vitamins A, E, C help your body

The Institute of Medicine recommends that men get 900 micrograms of vitamin A, 90 milligrams of vitamin C and 9.4 milligrams of zinc each day, while women need 700 micrograms of vitamin A, 75 milligrams of vitamin C and 6.8 milligrams of zinc. Both men and women should get 12 milligrams of vitamin E and 10 micrograms of vitamin D daily. These vitamins are essential for the health of your cells, bones, organs and heart and it is crucial to get enough of all of them to maximize their benefits.


Vitamin A


Every cell in your body needs vitamin A. This nutrient regulates the growth and division of your cells and it helps your body produce white blood cells when you need to fight an illness or infection. It plays a role in remodeling bone and it keeps the cells that line your body's interior surfaces healthy. Smokers should avoid high-dose supplements of beta-carotene, according to Harvard School of Public Health, because it may increase their risk of lung cancer, but getting the recommended amount through food is healthy and safe.
 Vitamin A nourishes the eyes as well as the skin and has been useful in some disorders of the gastrointestinal tract. If you need really good looking skin, you should get more Vitamin A and Carrots, papaya and tomatoes are rich of vitamin A

Vitamin E

Vitamin E is a fat-soluble antioxidant that protects your cell membranes from damage and may prevent LDL cholesterol from oxidizing and forming plaque in your arteries. Women who are at risk for deep vein thrombosis may benefit from getting an adequate amount of vitamin E because it may prevent DVT from developing. Some research indicates that vitamin E might help prevent some types of cancer. A study published in the "Journal of the National Cancer Institute" in 2012 noted that middle-aged or older Chinese people who took high amounts of vitamin E, either from diet or supplements, had a lower incidence of liver cancer than those who did not.
IT improves circulation, repairs tissue and helps to grow your hair. oils, nuts and seeds are rich of vitamin E
                                                                                             

Vitamin C

Between 1500 and 1800, more than 2 million sailors died of scurvy, according to Harvard University. Some knew that citrus fruits prevented the disease, but vitamin C wasn't officially discovered until 1932. Since then, scientists have determined that your body needs this water-soluble vitamin to produce collagen, cartilage, tendons, ligaments and the basic protein in your bones. Vitamin C also functions as an antioxidant, protecting you from the damage done by free radicals.

10 Surprising Health Benefits Of Whiskey

10 Surprising Health Benefits Of Whiskey


Whether it’s Jack Daniel’s, Jim Beam, or Fireball, everybody is bound to have one kind of whiskey they like more than they admit. In fact, with the demand for whiskey far outpacing its supply in recent years, it’s becoming more and more common to see people enjoying a glass of their favorite brand while out at bars or after a long day at work.

There are always the critics, of course: People who claim that whiskey is an old man’s drink and continually insist that it “tastes terrible.” But what if I told you that you don’t have to feel bad about enjoying that double shot, because you can tell those naysayers that whiskey good for your health? Well, according to sites like Organic Facts and Food to Fitness, you can do just that!  It turns out that drinking a little bit of whiskey (in moderation, of course) can indeed benefit your health, and here’s how!

1. It helps you avoid weight gain

Compared to a lot of mixed drinks and beers out there, whiskey is a low-calorie, low-sugar alcohol, so you can enjoy it without having to later worry about running off that dreaded beer gut.

2. It promotes heart health

Along with dark beers and wine, whiskey is one of the only other drinks that can claim the benefit of being heart healthy. The antioxidants that are in whiskey can help reduce your risk of a heart attack by lowering bad cholesterol, and even boosting your good cholesterol.

3. It helps fight cancer

Whiskey is said to be rich in antioxidants, particularly one called ellagic acid. This chemical is known to help prevent your body’s DNA from coming into contact with carcinogens. It’s also known to help protect your body from the effects of chemotherapy.

4. It improves your brain health

Studies have shown that drinking a small to moderate amount of whiskey may reduce your risk of Alzheimer’s disease and dementia (though heavy drinking may increase the risk, so if you plan on testing this method on yourself, make sure you don’t over-do it!).

5. It reduces your risk of stroke

Because whiskey prevents cholesterol build up and also helps to reduce your bad cholesterol, it lowers your risk of stroke as well. It also helps relax the walls of the arteries and promotes blood flow. Now what’s not to love about that?

6. It helps reduce stress

Besides it’s negative impact on your mental health, stress will run your body ragged and is linked to numerous health risks. As many fans of whiskey are sure to testify, a stiff drink may be just what you need to calm your nerves and relieve that stress. And because it helps you with circulation, whiskey can help you feel like a new person after a rough day.

7. It boosts your memory

The same health benefits that help with the prevention of Alzheimer’s disease also boost your memory. Whiskey improves your circulation, making sure your brain gets plenty of blood and stays in tip-top shape!

8. It helps with digestion

Did you know whiskey has long been used as a digestion aid? It can help curb your appetite after a meal, preventing you from overeating and helping you avoid stomach aches or indigestion.

9. It lengthens your lifespan

Because whiskey is chock-full of antioxidants and nutrients, it can help your immune system and prevent your body from contracting diseases. It can also help prevent the slow breakdown of important cells in your body, thus lengthening your lifespan!

10. It’s safe for diabetics

Since whiskey is a low-sugar and low-carb alcohol, it’s the perfect drink if you suffer from diabetes. You can enjoy a good drink and not have to worry about what it may do to your blood sugar. And that is something that we can all drink to!

You Are My Motivation

You Are My Motivation 


  • Well I have to say that without determination you're not going anywhere. Determination is the gasoline of life. People who are naturally determined usually follow and achieve all of their goaIs always said there are two types of people in life: those who say they will and those who do without saying.
     I feel we are all born with certain abilities in life, some of us have strong abilities in some fields, and some have strong abilities in others. No one is born perfect and no one is better than anyone else. We all have our own special gifts and these are what make us special. I feel that I was born with the gift of determination and confidence.
    I feel that nothing can stop a person from doing something except that person alone. I, myself, have always been determined and goal-oriented. I feel that life without a goal or mission is no life at all. Getting back to what I said earlier, we have to stop and smell the roses in life otherwise what was the purpose to begin with? I have to find my balance.
    "Never Give Up.! "
    Watch below workout video. Its fantastic and you will surprised.!
