  • Four myths about caffeine you shouldn’t believe

    Four myths about caffeine you shouldn’t believe

    Don’t do drink so much coffee, it’s bad for you. Drink tea instead.

    All the coffee lovers must have heard this line from the overly-caring relatives or friends, who themselves are tea addicts, at least, once in their lives and we can’t help but say yes to whatever they have to utter.

    While most non-coffee lovers have a particular notion about coffee, it won’t be wrong to say that most of it are nothing but myths.

    Here are 4 myths about caffeine that you should never fall for.

    Myth 1: Caffeine is addictive

    Fact: Don’t drink so much coffee, you will get addicted to it. This is one of the most favourite lines of all tea lovers. However, there are no studies that prove that a limited intake of caffeine can make you addicted to it. Having said that, since caffeine does stimulate your nervous system and improve concentration, you might feel a slight dependence on it if you have it on regular basis. If a cup of coffee is all that you have in a day, you need not worry about dependence.

    Myth 2: Caffeine causes cancer

    Fact: There is absolutely no scientific evidence for it. In fact, many experts say that caffeine may help prevent certain cancers.

    Myth 3: Caffeine is only bad

    Fact: On the contrary, caffeine has several health benefits. It helps improve concentration, gives you a boost of energy, may help relieve certain kinds of headaches and can help in clear-headedness.

    Myth 4: Caffeine is a big no for women who are trying to conceive

    Fact: While doctors do suggest that pregnant women should drink caffeine in limited quantities, there’s no evidence that suggests women trying to conceive should avoid it. Fertility and caffeine, as suggested by several experts, have no direct link. Consuming caffeine in limited quantities before or during pregnancy is safe with no proven risks unless you suffer from some complications.

    So, if you are a coffee lover, this might give you a sigh of relief. The other time when sometimes tries to stop you from having your daily cup of coffee, make them read about it a little more.

  • These are the pills that turn farts into the smell of roses

    These are the pills that turn farts into the smell of roses

    You can now buy pills that stop your farts from smelling bad. If you know that your fart smells can sometimes be unbearable, this might just be a lifesaver for you and your dignity.

    The Sun reports that a French inventor has created pills that can make your farts smell of roses or even chocolate if you like.

    The pills come in a variety of flavors namely ginger, violet, chocolate, and lily of the valley and the pills are also pet friendly.

    Christian Poincheval, a 65-year-old who hails from the village of Gesvres, says he was eating dinner with friends in 2006 when he realized the group had farted and the farts were so smelly after the copious meal, they nearly suffocated and he began his research and discovery.

    “You can disguise the sound of a fart but not the stench. The people at the table next to us were not happy. Something had to be done. ” he told The Telegraph.

    Poincheval also claims his pills not only create rose-scented farts, they reduce intestinal gas and bloating thanks to ingredients like vegetable coal, fennel, seaweed, plant resin, bilberry, and cacao zest.

    The tablets are made from natural ingredients and sold by French company PilulePet for around £20 for a pack of 60.

  • Four beauty decisions you need to make this year

    Four beauty decisions you need to make this year

    There is no better time than the New Year to break your terrible beauty habits; a new Year, a new set of beauty habits!

    However, 2022 is not just about tossing out old mascaras and promising to visit the hairdresser more often; it is also about making positive changes that overhaul your whole skincare routine.

    Here are four important beauty resolutions you must make in 2022

    1. Wear sunscreen daily

    It is critical to remember to apply sunscreen every day of 2022… and beyond. Otherwise, you could be putting your skin at risk.

    Sun damage and skin cancer are caused by ultraviolet radiation, which are always present. Wearing sunscreen every day can help you avoid years of sun damage, delaying the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

    Although the melanin in your skin protects you from sunburns if you have a darker complexion, you must still protect your skin from damaging ultraviolet radiation.

    People with fair skin are more likely to get skin cancer as a result of sun exposure, but those with darker complexion are more likely to develop more dangerous types of skin cancer. As a result, everyone, regardless of skin tone, should use sunscreen every day.

    2. Throw out expired products

    Do you have dirty make-up brushes, empty bottles, and expired foundations in your beauty drawer? Make a resolution to clear it all up in the new year, and make it a regular habit.

    A dirty beauty drawer can be a subtle source of stress. Our surroundings, according to Psychology Today, can have a big impact on our mood and behaviour. In brief, clutter might have negative consequences such as increased anxiety or difficulty concentrating.

    Additionally, dirty make-up and skincare items may harbour harmful microorganisms. If you do not dispose of expired products and empty bottles and clean up your make-up tools, the germs might linger and contaminate other products – and eventually, your skin.

    3. Wash make-up brushes regularly

    Cleaning make-up brushes and beauty blenders can be tedious. But just like going to the gym, you will be glad you did it!

    There is nothing as satisfying as when you sit down with your sparkling clean set of brushes the next day to do your make-up. And just like working out, cleaning your make-up brushes pays off in the long run.

    Dirty brushes can be disastrous on your skin. When your make-up brush touches your skin, it comes off with oil, dust, dead skin cells, and bacteria – and the next time you use the same dirty brush on your face, new breakouts and blemishes appear on your otherwise flawless skin.

    4. Try something new

    How adventurous are you when it comes to your skincare and beauty routines? While having tried and trusted products and routines is admirable, make a resolution to have fun with your beauty care in 2022. Instead of being stuck in a beauty rut, be bold and daring.

    Every now and then, go out of your way to try something new, even if it is not necessarily ‘you’. How about a new shade of lipstick? Some new nail art? A hair colour that you have never tried before? You won’t know how something looks on you if you do not try.

  • How to stop putting your partner’s feelings above your own

    How to stop putting your partner’s feelings above your own

    In my experience, we all get better at being in relationships over time. It’s a learned skill. We aren’t all born with the perfect ability to balance and maintain a healthy relationship.

    Hindsight is 20/20, though. As soon as you’re out of the relationship, you’ll suddenly see all the issues you had, and for lots of people in first-time relationships, putting your partner’s needs above your own is a big issue.

    Here’s how to avoid doing that in the future.

    1. BEING A PEOPLE-PLEASER ISN’T HELPFUL

    Most people need a person in their life that they can be honest and share their soul with. However, you don’t want a yes-man in a relationship. The honesty you want from a partner is what you should give in return. They need someone to tell them when they have spinach in their teeth, that their shirt is on backward, or that their hat is ugly. People think that the only way to meet your partner’s needs is to be a people-pleaser, but that isn’t the same thing. In order to have a fulfilling relationship, you need to both make mistakes and grow together. If one of you is always protecting the other and defending them from change or influencing their behaviors, then they will stay the same. It’s well-meaning, but it isn’t helpful.

    2. YOU’LL WEAR YOURSELF DOWN

    Trying to anticipate and meet a person’s every need is hard enough as it is. However, when you combine that with an inability to meet your own needs because you’ve elevated those of another person above yours, that’s tough. You can’t sustain that. It’s isn’t a relationship – it starts to become a chore.

    3. YOU START TO RESENT THEM

    It’s not their fault either. They didn’t ask for you to put their needs above their own. Well, if they did, they’re trash, but that’s a different matter altogether. Your body soon begins to realize that the reason it’s tired all the time is your partner. However, your partner should be a source of joy, not tedium. You should want to help and support them, but if you become their servant, then it’s no longer an act of love and a pleasant surprise when you look after them. Small gestures are expected, but servitude changes the dynamic, and then your partner comes to expect that level of support, and neither of you is independent anymore.

    4. YOU FORGET WHAT YOUR VERSION OF SELF-CARE IS

    Sometimes you spend so long with a person that you become like them. We all have a bit of chameleon in us. That’s why we like our partners, after all – we think they’re cool. However, when you adopt all their habits and opinions, you might risk forgetting what you enjoy. The ways that you pass time. Don’t tend to their feelings so much that you neglect your own.

    5. YOU BECOME THEM

    No. I know that we’re all a collage of the people we’ve met – but that’s more subtle. It’s a compliment, and it’s natural. However, when you start dressing the same, cutting your hair together, and aligning your lives so intimately, even though your needs aren’t being met, it’s a gesture of intimacy that doesn’t ring quite true. Part of being in a relationship is valuing your differences and appreciating each other, not just keeping your personality under lock and key because you’re secretly afraid it might not be good enough.

    6. RECLAIM YOUR LIFE

    As a solution, try to reclaim what is yours – you will find that your partner is only too eager to get to know you. It introduces a little spark to the relationship. You won’t find love by obsessing over a person and failing to give them anything to love.

    7. VALUE YOUR OWN TIME

    Don’t drop everything you’re doing just because your partner has a small issue. Know when action is required and when they’re just venting. A lot of the time we just want to complain without being held accountable. Don’t be that person that always wants to fix everything and stops making people feel like they can just meaninglessly vent to you without getting the pitchforks out.

    8. FIND A NEW HOBBY

    Rediscover your old ones. Take up a new course – drag a friend to it, or your partner. They will love seeing this new and old side of you emerge.

    Putting people’s needs above your own isn’t inherently a bad trait. I know it sounds like I’m banging on about it, but don’t worry. It’s just that it conceals lots of other behaviors which actually compromise your quality of life. Value your own needs in a relationship, people!
