Making basic lifestyle changes could help to prevent the onset of Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia, according to new analysis by British health charity Age UK. The review of academic studies and data reveals that about 76 percent of cognitive decline -- changes in thinking skills with age including memory loss and speed of thinking -- is accounted for by lifestyle and other environmental factors including level of education, Xinhua reported. The analysis suggests that there are five "simple and effective" steps people can take to maintain brain health and reduce their risk of developing dementia. The lifestyle factors could decrease the risk of developing dementia, which included regular physical exercise, eating a healthy diet, not smoking and drinking alcohol in moderation. In addition, preventing and treating diabetes, high blood pressure and obesity were also found to reduce the risk of dementia. One large British study carried out over 30 years found that men aged between 45 and 59 who followed four to five of the identified lifestyle factors were found to have a 36 percent lower risk of developing cognitive decline and a 36 percent lower risk of developing dementia than those who did not. Age UK hopes the new evidence will spur people to make changes which will help them reduce the risk of developing dementia. "While there's still no cure or way to reverse dementia, this evidence shows that there are simple and effective ways to reduce our risk of developing it to begin with," Caroline Abrahams, director of Age UK, said. "The sooner we start, the better our chance of having a healthy later life."

Yes, you heard us right. How much you weigh has little to do with how healthy you are. Lean body mass should be your new focus. We've all been there. Despite regular exercising, controlling what we eat and adequate rest, the weighing scale needle refuses to budge. It turns out, that needn't be such a bad thing. Despite exceeding your weight category, you might be metabolically fit, and therefore not at risk of obesity related diseases including big silent killers blood pressure and diabetes. All fat isn't bad In a study that was conducted by US and European researchers, and published in the European Heart Journal in 2012, overweight and obese participants were found to be at no greater risk of developing or dying from heart disease or cancer, compared to normal weight people. This was because they were metabolically fit despite extra kilos. Nearly half of the 43,000 participants qualified as metabolically fit. Dr Jayashree Todkar, bariatric surgeon with Powai's Hiranandani Hospital, says it's important to note that all fat isn't bad. "Fat is manufactured by a battery of hormones and enzymes in your body, and is essential for protecting crucial organs." The problem arises when the proportion of fat to muscle increases, and especially so, when the excess is stored around organs. Bariatric surgeon Dr Manish Motwani says, "When there's excess fat in the body, insulin is unable to penetrate the cells and help metabolise sugar. Besides, there is no safe location for fat to accumulate. If it were to choose the area around the liver, for instance, you are at risk of developing a fatty liver which can progress onto non-alcoholic cirrhosis." Account for lean body mass Dr Pradeep V Gadge, a visiting diabetologist at Breach Candy Hospital, says if muscle or lean body mass accounts for a good portion of your weight, you are safe. It's exercise that helps increase muscle mass. Other than exercise, age is a significant player, he explains. Choosing the example of actor Salman Khan, who at 48, is beefy and considered one of the fittest stars, Dr Gadge says, as you age, muscle mass decreases and is replaced by fat. "If you remember, at 25, Salman was far from muscular. Now, although he may work out a couple of hours every day, and he does manage to look muscular, he is also bulky because at that age the body is fighting fat." There's an easy way to calculate if you have struck the right balance. Dr Gadge says between 40 and 60 per cent of your today body mass should be accounted by muscles and bones. In an article that appeared in Time magazine, coauthor of the 2012 study, Dr Timothy Church, director of the Laboratory of Preventive Medicine at Pennington Biomedical Research Center in Baton Rouge, was quoted saying that physical fitness — irrespective of weight — is a strong predictor of whether or not you're going to be metabolically fit. "Think about insulin resistance. The biggest consumer of sugar in the human body is muscle. Muscle doesn't just move us from point A to point B; it is also extremely important for many metabolic variables like blood sugar," says Church in the article. "So it makes sense that someone who is fit is metabolically going to be far better off than someone who is unfit." This explains why dieting (especially crash diets) without exercise will help you lose kilos, making you fall within your 'healthy' weight category, but your health and fitness levels won't be up to the mark. Restrictive diets leave you in mess, metabolically. Church says such individuals will appear trim, but continue to carry too much visceral (belly) fat and not enough muscle. Choose protein well Dr Gadge says to increase the muscle mass in your body — and you should do so even if the weighing scale is your best friend — you need to exercise for at least 30 minutes, five times a week. Half of this time should be spent in strength training, a regime that specifically helps you build muscle. Lifestyle nutrition consultant Tripti Gupta adds the body needs an adequate amount of protein for building muscle. For men, it's 2.5 to 3 gm per kg of body weight, while for women, it is 2.2 gm per kg of body weight. However, not all dietary sources of protein are equal "Among vegetarian sources, for instance, paneer and buttermilk are considered better than pulses. This is because the body is able to absorb 90 per cent of proteins from dairy as opposed to just 40 per cent from sprouts." 'Some proteins are better than others. Pick paneer and buttermilk over pulses because you absorb 90% of protein from dairy, 40% from sprouts - Nutrition consultant TRIPTI GUPTA on picking muscle-building protein smartly Source: http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/life-style/health-fitness/fitness/Never-mind-the-kilos/articleshow/45627334.cms

In fact, the planet Auriga once hosted a major settlement of the galaxy-travelling ancestors known as the Endless. In addition, the planet was still orbited by a functioning (and well cloaked) defensive system, which sprang eagerly to life upon the arrival of the Success.

Don't be in a tearing hurry to lose that baby weight. Slow and steady is best What do celeb moms like Shilpa Shetty Kundra, Shakira and Kourtney Kardashian have in common? They took their time to get back in shape after having a baby. None of them were shy of showing off their 'mummy tummies' with the Duchess of Cambridge, Catherine Middleton, being the most recent example. And while they may have an array of nannies and trainers at their fingertips, getting back in shape after pregnancy is not a lost cause. While the first couple of months can be emotionally, mentally and physically taxing, things will soon fall into a familiar pattern. In the first four or five months, most babies tend to sleep a lot. Use this time to get back in shape. Dedicate time in your schedule for exercise and stick to it as much as possible. Easier said than done, but not impossible... Start slowly Pregnancy and child-birth are huge turning points in a woman's life and rather demanding. While your body is slowly returning to normal, it also needs a push when it comes to dropping all those pregnancy pounds. Avoid any sort of exercise for the first four weeks after delivery. This is the time when your body needs to rest. And if you've had a C-section, you shouldn't exercise for at least 10 weeks. Ask your gynaecologist when you can start doing light exercise. After delivery, a woman's joints are loose because of the hormone Relaxin, which makes everything stretch to accommodate the baby in the womb. Start by going for walks and increase the duration gradually. Do light stretching and exercises or yoga at home. Avoid intense cardio or lifting weights. Your aim should be to improve posture, strength, stamina, energy and gradual weight-loss. Follow a schedule As difficult as it is to follow a schedule when you have the responsibilities of a baby, try to stick to it as much as you can. Your baby will sleep most of the time during the first few months, so make the most of this. Catch a nap, run your errands, spend time with your partner, exercise a bit or just do anything that helps you unwind during this time. Take help from your partner, family and friends. Plan your time wisely. Things to keep in mind - Start slowly. Begin with a warm-up to stretch out your body. - Go for a 20-minute walk daily and gradually increase the pace. - If swimming interests you, start by doing 10 laps and increase the number slowly. - Don't tire yourself out. Know and accept your limits. - Keep yourself adequately hydrated by keeping a bottle of water always on hand. - Whenever you workout, ensure that you wear a supportive bra. - Check with your doctor beforehand what exercises you can do and what you can't. Simple exercises to start off with... - This exercise aims at strengthening your core muscles. Start by lying down on your back and bend your knees. Make sure your back is neither pressed to the ground nor arched and tighten your abdominal muscles. Slowly raise your hips off the floor until they are aligned with your knees and shoulders. Count till 10 and slowly return to your original position. Do this a couple of times daily and increase the number as your start feeling more comfortable. - Strengthen your abdominal muscles with this exercise. Lie on the floor on your back with knees bent. Touch your back to the floor, tighten the abdominal muscles and bend your pelvis up a little. Count till 10 and repeat 10 times. - Tone your pelvic floor muscles by doing kegel exercises. When you pee, contract the muscle to stop your urine flow. Wait for 10 seconds and release. Repeat this as often as you can, whenever you visit the washroom. - Join a neighbourhood yoga class and inform them that you're a new mother so that they can suggest suitable exercises.

Having a baby is the single most life-changing event in a couple's life. In fact, many excitedly go about planning every bit of it as they prepare to take on the mantle of parenthood. But with changing lifestyles and increase in stress levels, there's been an alarming rise in infertility. And obesity has been identified to be one of the major contributors to that. Obesity was once believed to affect a woman's chances of bearing a child, but recent cases now point in the direction of men as well in playing a part in infertility. Dr. Kedar Ganla, fertility consultant physician at a reputed hospital, points out that 40 per cent of infertility among couples is caused by male obesity. "Obese tissue leads to the lowering of male hormone, i.e. testosterone, which directly affects fertility. The rising level of estrogen and the low level testosterone affects sperm making and production. Most of these health conditions arise from hypertension and diabetes, a by-product of obesity. In fact, uncontrolled diabetes leads to abnormal sperm production. Obesity also leads to low stamina, which reduces the urge of having sex," says Ganla. He also reasons that obesity causes high amount of stress levels due to bad eating habits, poor physical activity and erratic works schedules. Its common knowledge now that stress makes one eat abnormally and cause weight gain. "A simple picture will tell you that an overweight man will not be able to play with the kid or get involved in a lot of physical activity which is a must for becoming a father," adds Ganla. Ever since male infertility has come into focus in a lot of cases, a lot of doctors are working on improvising the quality of sperms and suggest simple changes in lifestyle and medications for the couple. IVF clinics, too, have come out with some sustainable solution for the same, where sperm counts can be regularised by following proper diet and exercise regimen. Dr Manish Motwani, a bariatric surgeon, says, "Apart from infertility treatment, obesity treatment and bariatric surgery plays a very important role in infertility and obesity management." Motwani also adds, "Obesity affects sperm count directly. In fact it also leads to decreased libido and erectile dysfunction among males — both are important factors behind infertility. Moreover, it also leads to a reduced number of hormones as well as a direct effect on semen. This affects a man's chances having a relationship or a normal sex life." Keep an eye on the BMI Obesity is determined by the BMI (Body Mass Index) level of a person, which is calculated as an average ratio of one's height and weight. A person with a BMI of 35 may be around 30 kgs overweight which poses a potential risk of infertility among males. According to Dr Manish Motwani, overweight men also have a higher cycle of cancellation rate when undergoing an IVF (in vitro fertilisation). This is why fertility doctors recommend overweight men to reduce weight before undergoing fertility treatments. "If all the weight loss options have been tried in the past without experiencing effective results, weight loss surgery should be considered for better chances of fertility. However, if a person can attain a decent BMI level within six months of following a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet and regular exercise, a surgery can be avoided," says Motwani. However, a weight loss surgery or bariatric surgery has proven to be the most effective for individuals with a BMI level more than 32.5 and suffering from associated medical conditions like infertility as well as associated complications like diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnoea. For morbidly obese people with a BMI rating of more than 40, a surgery is sometimes the only solution. Motwani also adds, "Depending on the type of weight loss surgery, a person can lose about 40 to 70 per cent of the extra weight within six-to-nine months after surgery. Ninety per cent are able to their weight loss for 10 years or more. This helps them stay healthy in the first few years of fatherhood, as well as in the years of bringing up their child. How obesity leads to infertility 1. It reduces sperm count 2. Lowers levels of testosterone 3. Hypertension and uncontrolled diabetes deteriorates the quality of semen 4. Physical constraints in having a normal sex life 5. Lack of interest due to tiredness and stress Measures taken to regularise fertility 1. Maintain a balanced lifestyle 2. Follow proper diet 3. Ensure you indulge in regular physical activity 4. Start with a fertility treatment only after considerable weight loss for better effects SourcE: http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/life-style/health-fitness/health/Obesity-in-men-can-lead-to-infertility/articleshow/38216458.cms

For most of us, the day does not begin without the early morning shot of caffeine. While drinking coffee might be viewed as an addiciton, there are myriad benefits to drinking coffee. Here are some of them. Coffee reduces the risk of cancer: Caffeine contains polyphenols, which help reduces the risk of cancer. Regular coffee intake is also known to decrease the incidence of early onset of breast cancer too. Helps protect the liver: Research suggest that the more coffee people drink, the less susceptible they are to liver diseases like cirrhosis. One analysis even found that every two-cup increase in daily coffee intake was associated with a 43 per cent lower risk of liver cancer. It's good for the brain too: Moderate coffee drinking is known to reduce the risk of dementia, Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's, since caffeine is rich in antioxidants, which prevent damage to the brain cells.

Have you stopped wearing sleeveless just because you have heavy arms? Now, there is no need to be upset. Follow these easy tips and you can have the toned arms you wished for... The most effective way to tone arms is being physically active. This doesn't mean that you need to hit the gym every day, but there are many household activities that requires intense arms movement, mopping, cleaning, rolling to name a few. But to melt down the bulky plump, you need determination and focus. You need to start with cutting down on unhealthy and high-calorie food, eating fresh to stay healthy and look healthy. Here are a few more tips. Go for skipping If you think it's irrelevant, then you are wrong. Skipping is the best cardio workout and it's inexpensive as well. It doesn't just help you sweat out the fat from your body, but gives you sleek and tone arms too. "Skipping rope affects arms muscles as you lift your body's weight as well as move your arms in circular motion. This increases the activity in the arms. Count seconds instead of skipping repetitions to make the process more effective," says Gautham Kumar, a fitness expert. Keep stretching Don't wait for the evening or morning fitness regime and stretch your arms as and when you get time. This will not only keep you active, but also release the tension. Gautham says, "Stretching tones the arm muscles and brings them back in shape. Do it in the office, post meeting or after finishing a report." He suggests these exercises that you can do in your office. - Interlock your fingers behind your head and stretch your arms up. Make sure the elbows are behind your head. Now, bend your waist right for a few seconds and repeat the same on the left. Keep arms stretched and straight. - Hold both your palms together behind the lower spine and interlock the fingers. Stretch both your arms backward so that chest comes forward. This is also beneficial to relieve the back stress. Rotate wrist Wrist rotation affects your shoulders and lower arms which are the plumpest areas. "Hold one to two pounds of dumbbells in each hand and stand up. The gap between your feet should be equal to your shoulder length. Extend both the hands forward and keep them firm. Now, swiftly rotate your wrist upward and inward as far as possible. This will help tone the arm muscles," says Gatuham. Lift your body up Do you remember how you used to do pull-ups in the park as a kid? You have to just follow the same. Hold a sturdy strong rod that can bear your body weight. Grasp it firmly and pull yourself up the floor. When you go up hold the position for a few seconds and let your arm muscles take all the strain. Do a set of 20 and after a two-minute break, repeat the set. In case, you are doing it for the first time, then, do as many pull-ups as you can, but don't strain yourself. Triceps with one arm Sit on the floor and place your hands almost a foot behind your hips; your fingers should point towards the butt. Your legs and feet should be pressed together, knees bent and feet flat on the floor. Keep your arm straight to raise your hips above the floor. Bend your left elbow only with one arm and lower your butt as close to the floor as possible without actually touching it. Repeat it with right elbow.

Gautam Rode on his diet, fitness regime and why he has always said no to steroids Gautam Rode, better known as Saraswatichandra these days, is one of the fittest actors around. And while guys with six-packs are often on an eggs-and-boiled chicken diet, Gautam is a pure vegetarian. The actor is often referred to as an amateur dietician these days by his friends, given the number of people who've started approaching him for diet and exercise tips. "For me, fitness is about the right habits with the right attitude," he says. Excerpts from a conversation with the actor. On his diet I really don't see non-vegetarian food as a must for a good body or for six-pack abs. My diet includes healthy home-made food, as well as my protein shakes. I try to balance my carbs and proteins by having brown rice poha, oats, muesli and low-sugar fruits like apples, pears, oranges and strawberries. For protein, I have a good amount of dal, soyabean, tofu as well as soya milk. I also make sure to have lots of green vegetables and drink at least six to eight cups of caffeine-free green tea. I don't drink at all. In fact, I've never tasted alcohol. I don't need alcohol to get high, as living a healthy lifestyle gives me that high. I do have my cheat days as well when I like to binge, but that's once in a while and I soon get back to my routine. On gymming I am, at times, shooting for 12-14 hours a day and hence gymming happens either before or after shoot. The day feels incomplete without having exercised and that includes everything from crunches to weight lifting. I don't believe in shortcuts in life and, hence, steroids are a big no on my list. In fact, I have seen many people taking this shortcut but I feel it ends up backfiring in the long run. People think that the only way to have a good muscular body is through steroids. But I want to tell them that the natural way is doable and anyone who is dedicated and has the willpower can do it. And, finally, it's not about getting those six-pack abs or a slim body, it's about a person staying healthy and fit.

A new study has claimed that kids who eat chicken wings become more aggressive as compared to those who eat pre-cut chicken. The researchers asserted that since biting food seemed to increase the activity level, aggression and noncompliance, it may not be wise to serve young children chicken wings shortly before bedtime, the Mirror reported. Dr Brian Russell told Fox News that he would place absolutely zero chicken stock in this study. Russell said that according to him people have been eating chicken wings and chicken drumsticks for a millennium and he did not think that it made them any more aggressive than they otherwise would have been.
