Tips Penjagaan Mata

   
         

Jika anda ingin menjaga kualiti penglihatan yang baik berikut adalah tips yang dapat membantu anda memelihara mata anda.

1. Amalkan pengambilan buah beri dan prun. Kebanyakan buah-buahan yang berwarna ungu ini sangat kaya dengan sebatian yang di kenali sebagai 'anthocyanidins' yang terbukti memberi manfaat pada kesihatan mata.

2. Amalkan pengambilan sayur-sayuran berwarna hijau seperti bayam, kangkung, sawi dan sebagainya kerana ia sangat kaya dengan beta karotin yang baik untuk mata.

3. Ambillah buah-buahan yang berwarna oren atau kuning seperti limau, betik dan mangga. Buah-buahan berwarna ini, sangat baik untuk mata kerana kandungan beta karotin yang terkandung di dalamnya sangat tinggi.

4. Sayur-sayuran berwarna oren dan merah seperti lobak merah, tomato dan labu juga mengandungi beta karotin yang sangat tinggi. Ambillah pemakanan ini setiap hari sekurang-kurangnya satu cawan sehari bagi memastikan tubuh anda sentiasa mendapat sumber beta karotin yang berterusan.

4. Melakukan senaman mata adalah sangat baik untuk kesihatan mata. Caranya dengan mengerdipkan dan memejamkan mata anda kerana ia mampu mengurangkan keradangan dan rasa letih pada mata.

5. Kurangkan stress pada mata dengan meletakkan hirisan timun pada kelopak mata anda. Mata yang letih mengakibatkankan lingkaran gelap di sekeliling mata terjadi seterusnya menjejaskan penampilan anda.

6. Tidur yang cukup akan membantu merehatkan mata anda dan membuat mata anda kelihatan segar dan bermaya.

7. Elakkan mata anda dari cahaya yang sangat terang kerana ia akan menjejaskan penglihatan anda. Pakailah kaca mata gelap untuk memelihara mata anda.

HEALTHY BREAKFAST


Sipping a cup of green tea with your breakfast may have some weight-loss benefits.                 

Not only is breakfast the first food and drink your body has had in more than 8 hours, but studies find that what you eat for breakfast influences what you eat the rest of the day. Additionally, people who eat breakfast are significantly less likely to be obese and have diabetes than those who don’t.
The most important tip we can give you is to eat breakfast every day. Without exception. This one action alone can make a huge, positive difference in your health. But a doughnut or oversized muffin won’t do it. The key is to choose energy-enhancing, health-invigorating foods. That’s what we’ll focus on in the tips ahead.

1. Be consistent with your portions. For most people, a perfect breakfast has three components: one serving of a whole grain carbohydrate, one serving of a dairy or high-calcium food, and one serving of fruit. Together, that would add up to roughly 300 calories. A high-protein serving (i.e., a meat or an egg) is unnecessary but certainly acceptable, as long as it doesn’t add too much fat or calories to the mix. Here are a few winning combinations, based on this formula:
  • A bowl of high-fiber, multigrain cereal, lots of strawberries, and low-fat milk on top.
  • A granola bar, an apple, and a cold glass of milk.
  • A cup of nonfat yogurt, fresh blueberries mixed in, and a slice of whole wheat toast with a fruit spread on top.
  • A mini whole wheat bagel, spread lightly with cream cheese and jam; a peach; and a cup of yogurt.
  • A scrambled egg, a whole wheat roll, fresh fruit salad, and a cup of low-fat milk.
  • A low-fat muffin, a wedge of cantaloupe, and a cup of latte made with skim milk.
2. Have a bowl of sweetened brown rice. Consider it a takeoff on prepared cereal. Brown rice is full of energy-providing B vitamins, as well as a great source of filling fiber. Cook the rice the night before, then in the morning, put it in a bowl with a spoonful of honey, a handful of raisins, a cut-up apple, and a sprinkle of cinnamon for a unique yet delicious treat. Don’t like rice? Try any of the cooking grains: barley, rye, red wheat, oats, buckwheat, quinoa, or millet.
3. Pour a cup of fruit smoothie. Simply whir a cup of strawberries and a banana in the blender, add a scoop of protein powder and a cup of crushed ice, and you’ve got a healthy, on-the-go breakfast filled with antioxidants. Toss in a cup of plain yogurt, and you’ve just added a bone-strengthening dose of calcium. An added bonus: You’ve just crossed three of your daily fruit servings off the list.

grandfather's experience




                      
              
Special thanks to Alex for sending in this short, inspiring story:
A grandfather talking to his grandson about a tragedy he witnessed:
- “I feel as if I have two wolves fighting in my heart. One is the vengeful, angry, violent one. The other wolf is the loving, compassionate one.”
- “Grandfather, which wolf will win the fight in your heart?” asked his Grandson.
- Grandfather answered, “The one I feed".

The Important Things in Life

                  
                             

A philosophy professor stood before his class with some items on the table in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with rocks, about 2 inches in diameter.
He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.
So the professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles, of course, rolled into the open areas between the rocks.
He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.
The professor picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else.
He then asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous “Yes.”
“Now,” said the professor, “I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The rocks are the important things – your family, your partner, your health, your children – things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.
The pebbles are the other things that matter – like your job, your house, your car.
The sand is everything else. The small stuff.”
“If you put the sand into the jar first,” he continued “there is no room for the pebbles or the rocks. The same goes for your life.
If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are important to you. Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take your partner out dancing. There will always be time to go to work, clean the house, give a dinner party and fix the disposal.
Take care of the rocks first – the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.”

First Week of University .

First Week of University – Must do things to make the most of your First Week of University.

First Week of University Point 1: Talk to her, him, him, her, her and even IT – TALK TO EVERYONE.

It is imperative that you familiarize yourself with other students who are in the same boat as you. These bright individuals that you will come in contact with during the first week will be the ones that will make your university experience a memorable one. Moreover, you need some friends to go out with for the crazy events fresher’s week has to offer. So don’t be shy – just say HI!

First Week of University Point 2: Take a tour of the campus

During your first week of university, you will have several opportunities to go off on your own to explore the campus, make sure you do this with the great new people you have just met. Note the locations of places that you will most likely want to visit in the future (ex: pubs, shops, ATM’s, Class rooms etc).

First Week of University Point 3: Don’t join every student club, just because it sounds interesting.

You will have plenty of opportunities to put your name and email down on more than 300 clubs a typical university offers – don’t do it. You will end up getting over whelmed and not participate in any of the clubs. Try this instead – Join only the clubs that you feel you can play an active role in and are passionate about. Sure, the Hot Air Balloon Ride club sounds cool but is that your passion? If you like finance than join the Finance club, if you like acting than join the Drama club. These clubs will enable you to meet like minded individuals like yourself and give you the opportunity to have fun in a setting that you are comfortable in.

First Week of University Point 4: Be open to new possibilities

University is about exploring new possibilities in a safe and fun environment. It all begins with the first week, if you have an open mentality to new things – you will learn a lot about yourself. However, if you become open minded in the 3rd week or even the 2nd week – it’s too late. This is because the friends that you will meet in the first week of university will be your support and guidance system for many years to come. If you do not have an open attitude you may miss the opportunity to meet these friends. So, be open to new possibilities and discover yourself.
