5 Habits Must Be Avoided After Meals

What kind of habits do you have after eating? Do you know that the habit you were doing without realizing it could lead to a disease that you didn't have? There are 5 post-meal habits that must be avoided that ruin your health. 1. Brushing teeth Photo by Diana Polekhina on Unsplash If you brush your teeth right after eating, the enamel layer coated on your teeth will come off. This enamel layer plays such an important role as an armor of the teeth. If the enamel layer disappears, your teeth will soon rot. Especially, it is more dangerous to brush your teeth after eating acidic foods or drinks such as orange juice, strawberries, blueberries, dry fruits, coffee, and wine.

Diabetics Must Know This Fruits Common Sense

Diabetics worry before they eat fruit. It is because I am worried that sugar in fruits will increase blood sugar and worsen diabetes. As a result, some diabetics do not eat fruit at all. It is true that diabetics should be careful about eating fruits, but they do not need to completely ban fruits. Photo by Brenda Godinez on Unsplash Immediately after the meal, insulin is secreted from the pancreas to lower the elevated blood sugar. However, if you eat a lot of fruit at this time, blood sugar rises, and the pancreas releases too much insulin to lower blood sugar. If this process is repeated, the function of the pancreas may deteriorate or become damaged, resulting in diabetes. Fructose contained in fruits may increase blood sugar rapidly, aggravating diabetes. But, eating fruits is not necessarily bad. Fruits are rich in vitamins, antioxidants, and dietary fiber, which are essential to health. Therefore, eating the right amount of fruit is good for your health. However, you need to be ...

Taking Supplements With Coffee Is No Problem?

Do you usually take nutritional supplements? When taking vitamins or iron pills, it is not recommended to take them with coffee. The caffeine in coffee can affect the absorption rate of nutrients. Caffeine helps the stomach contract well, making it faster to digest and faster to digest, there is a possibility that nutrients will be released out of the body before they are absorbed. In particular, caffeine can interfere with the absorption of vitamin B group, D, iron, and calcium, and cause diuretic action, which can be quickly discharged into the urine before nutrients are absorbed into the body. Therefore, it is not recommended to take coffee when taking multivitamins containing iron, calcium, and various vitamins. It takes some time for caffeine to decompose in the body, so if you drank coffee, it is recommended to take this kind of nutritional supplement in about two hours. Then, why don't you take nutritional supplements with tea types such as green tea, black tea, and boy tea?...

Among the workers who have to go to work early in the morning, many alarms are set in several minutes to wake up at a fixed time. However, there is a study that sets several alarms like this can cause chronic fatigue. According to a study by Professor of Sleep Medicine at Harvard University, Buxton, the human body releases awakening hormones when it wakes up after hearing an alarm. However, when you turn off the alarm and lie back down, the activity of the awakening hormone is delayed and the adenosine, a substance that causes fatigue, is secreted, making the human body asleep inertial state that is not fully awake from sleep. Sleep inertia usually lasts 30 minutes and 2 hours long. If you wake up in an alarm every few minutes and then fall asleep again, sleep inertia lasts longer. If these are repeated, they can accumulate fatigue and lead to chronic fatigue. "Never press the snooze button." Professor Buxton asks. The snooze button is similar to setting the alarm at interval...
