  • Did you know? – Skin renewal diet is the pathway to a healthy body

    Did you know? – Skin renewal diet is the pathway to a healthy body

    Often when we’re desperate to get back to a leaner body, we act first and think later.

    How many diets or weight loss programs have you signed up to that promised results but left you with an impossible menu and exercise schedule to figure out on your own?

    With the Renewal Institute Diet (RID) from Skin Renewal, a team of highly skilled medical and healthcare professionals are with you from the start. And they don’t just give you a one-size-fits all plan. The RID diet follows a carefully thought through eight layered approach to get your body the healthiest it’s ever been.

    The diet takes into account Skin Renewals unique four pillar approach to health analysing each patients gut health, their exercise regime, nutrition plans and how they manage stress in addition to assessing their sleep hygiene.

    If it’s a truly holistic plan you want, this is way to do it.

    Health means wealth

    RID was developed by Skin Renewals founder and medical director Doctor Maureen Allem. She believes that it is imperative to find the cause of weight gain if it is to be treated in a sustained manner.

    Understanding what’s triggering the storage of extra kilos means understanding your health status better. For this, Skin Renewals team of doctors and health coaches uniquely tweak the program by including and incorporating various support treatments and/or supplement if any issues such as diabetes, high cholesterol or inflammatory conditions are diagnosed.

    The first step to starting RID is a doctor’s consultation, to review your medical history and exclude possible contraindications to the program. Health problems that could hamper weight loss include insulin resistance, thyroid disorders, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), liver disorders and gut dysfunction.

    During the initial consultation and based on the patient’s medical history, the doctor. will decide whether additional tests need to be carried out. Tests can be ordered to exclude medical conditions that will slow the weight loss process.

    The Great Eight

    Once you’ve seen your Skin Renewal doctor, you’ll be guided through a bespoke RID plan to ensure the sustainability of the diet. The plan includes a calorie-controlled eating plan based on low-glycemic nutrition to reduce inflammation in your body; a meal replacement shake (with healthy whey protein, healthy fat, electrolytes, minerals and stevia) which ensures your body gets the fuel it needs and you’re not left hungry and Injections with a bio identically compounded hCG especially tailor made for you.
    You’ll also be supported by a Skin Renewal supplement plan to rev up your system from the inside out. This step is critical for gut repair as not only does 80 percent of our immunity comes from our guts, but 80 percent of chronic inflammation too. It is this inflammation that needs to be reduced in order to help with weight loss. Speaking of supplements, as your body will be in state of detoxification, you’ll be prescribed important nutraceuticals to encourage liver cleansing which takes away any excess oestrogen and bio toxins.

    A key to RIDs success is bi weekly check-ups to provide each patient with the emotional, mental and physical support they require.

    If you’re ready for a program that speaks to a balanced and healthy lifestyle change, RID is not all talk and zero promise. It’s a narrative that helps bodies find solutions that are holding them back from total health, cheerleading them on to a real and sustainable finish line. Here’s to you – happy and healthy once more!

  • Here’s is the art of matching gin with food

    Here’s is the art of matching gin with food

    Meticulously crafted and perfected over 100 years by Japanese artisans from the House of Suntory, Roku Japanese Craft Gin is the perfect, precise balance of flavour and freshness.

    In Japanese, Roku translates as the number six, representing the six special botanicals housed inside each beautifully embossed hexagonal bottle of Japanese craft gin.

    Sakura flower, sakura leaf, yuzu peel, sencha tea (green tea), gyokuro tea (refined green tea), and sanshō pepper are harvested at the peak of their season to extract the finest flavours.

    These rare botanicals are then combined with eight traditional gin botanicals (juniper berries, coriander, angelica root and seed, bitter orange and lemon peel, cardamom, and cinnamon) and distilled through a unique multiple distillation process to produce a complex yet harmonious gin that embodies the seasons of Japan.

    With a floral aroma of cherry blossom, a refreshing yuzu top note, a smooth and silky texture, and a spicy peppery finish, Roku’s perfectly balanced mix is your ideal party partner this festive season. Whether you are hosting your family or friends for a classy end-of-year soiree or are on appetiser duty at an event, these Roku gin and food pairing ideas are sure to have everyone talking – for all the right reasons.

    Roku Gin and food: A match made in heaven

    Before you get started, it’s important to note that pairing spirits and food is a little more complicated than putting cheese and wine side-by-side. “Use something that the gin has in it – that’s the golden rule of gin pairing,” explains Paul Birtwistle, head of Sydney’s famous Toko restaurant.

    “Use a particular botanical within the dish itself. It’s really just trying to emphasise what’s in the gin or an element of the gin and then match that,” he adds.

    So, for a floral, citrusy, peppery, and fuller-bodied gin like Roku, Japanese flavours and dishes work wonders. And because Roku’s unique elixir covers a full flavour profile, you can involve the gin in an entire menu – from start to finish.

    Starters

    What better way to start your get-together than by serving fresh sushi and seafood? It’s hard to resist delicious salmon, tuna or prawn sashimi. Or how about oysters, mussels, tuna tartar, or shrimp skewers?

    Whatever seafood variety you pick, be sure to include authentic Japanese flavours like ginger, wasabi, yuzu, soy sauce, or matcha to elevate every canape and enhance Roku’s botanicals. Chicken yakitori skewers are a great option for guests who aren’t fish fans.

    Mains

    This is the part where you can really get creative, using Roku Japanese Craft Gin itself in your show-stopping main dish. Incorporating a tablespoon or two of gin into your meat or fish marinade is a clever way to get those flavours singing. Think gin-cured salmon with wasabi cream or gin-infused teriyaki-style beef with chilli sauce.

    The sky is your limit. Just be sure to up the amount of gin you’re pouring into those cocktails if you’re looking to pair them with strong, powerful flavours in your main dish. “If it’s a really strong flavour, you could probably match it up with gin on the rocks or a martini,” suggests Paul.

    Desserts

    You can’t go wrong with anything that involves chocolate for dessert – gin pairs wonderfully with white, milk or dark chocolate. But if you want to bring out Roku’s unique botanicals, take it one step further with a spicy, citrus, or floral element added to your chocolate dessert. Dark chilli chocolate mousse, a chocolate-citrus tart, or edible flower chocolate bark are all top contenders.

    Cheers to a delightful festive season with Roku Japanese Craft Gin.

    Zodwa Wabantu under fire for her love of Ben 10s

    Zodwa Wabantu is once again accused of being a predator.

    The star is known to be dragged on different occasions most especially regarding her dating younger men.

    Taking to Twitter, a tweep has taken to accuse Zodwa and choreographer Somgaga for allegedly being predators, saying that their victims happen to be young boys.

    They also went ahead to say that the reason no one ever wants to talk about these two being predators is because Somgaga is gay and Zodwa is a woman.

    The tweet caught so many attention as people decided to share their views.

    Zodwa, who has been known for dating younger men than her, has never really been apologetic about this fact.

    Well, even with that, the dancer is currently dating the love of her life who is way older than her.

  • What to expect from 2nd instalment of M-Net’s ‘Strangers You Know’

    What to expect from 2nd instalment of M-Net’s ‘Strangers You Know’

    Homegrown true crime docu-series have become a firm favourite with Mzansi.

    And given the high crime rate in the country, there’s plenty of material to work from.

    Last year, M-Net’s “Strangers You Know” as well as Showmax’s “Devilsdorp” got viewers talking.

    The latter was a disturbing look at faith manifesting in unholy actions by Cecilia Steyn and members of her Electus per Deus (Chosen by God) cult. Gosh, the series on the Krugersdorp Killings of 11 people between 2012 – 2016, still gives me chills.

    And M-Net’s “Strangers You Know” was also an unsettling watch as it looked at real-life cases that not only grabbed headlines but left the nation reeling in horror.

    Although crime doesn’t raise eyebrows as it used to for South Africans, the ones featured in this series managed to get a reaction from a desensitised nation.

    As such, season two of “Strangers You Know” now debuts on M-Net this Sunday. And the four cases featured will throw viewers for a loop, especially when you realise that the victims died at the hands of people they trusted.

    These dark and depraved killers show no remorse whatsoever while loved ones help piece together the events that they recall while revisiting death of someone close to them.

    Each episode also features insight from the lead investigators, prosecutors as well as forensic pathologists.

    Chwayitisa Futshane, who is the creator, producer and executive producer of the true-crime docuseries, commented: “In a country such as ours, where violence especially against women, is so rife, these are some of the stories that need to be told. In season 2, the series really gets to grips with some of these crimes and if nothing else, our viewers will be reminded that sometimes the most brutal killers, are the strangers we know.”

    Below is a rundown of the shocking cases tackled over the coming weeks:

    Karabo Mokoena

    She thought she found the man of her dreams when she started dating Forex trader Sandile Mantsoe. He appeared to be successful, intelligent and grounded in his spirituality.

    But when Karabo goes missing, her friends and family try to track her down at the last place she was seen.

    It soon becomes evident that Sandile is not the Prince Charming Karabo had first envisioned. Airs this Sunday.

    Jayde Panayiotou

    In Gqebera circles, Jayde and Christopher were a match made in heaven. Jayde was a fun, well-loved teacher and Christopher was the businessman with a plan.

    But their lives are ripped apart when Jayde’s body is found in a field outside of town.

    While Christopher and his family mourn their profound loss, police set up a sting operation and a shocking discovery is made. Airs on January 16.

    Anene Booysen

    A despicable act of savagery ends the life of Bredasdorp teenager Anene Booysen.

    After the 17-year-old is found beaten and almost naked on a construction site by a security guard, the public was baying for blood.

    With her dying words, Anene whispers the name of her killer to her mother.

    What appears to be an open-and-shut case actually raises more questions about the police investigation and, most importantly, whether the right man is in prison.

    Henri van Breda

    South Africans were shaken when the picture-perfect Van Breda family were brutally attacked in their Stellenbosch home by an axe-wielding intruder.

    While the massacre grabbed international headlines, the police started paying close attention to someone inside the home.

    The police slowly piece together the events of that day and a heart-breaking betrayal is revealed.

    “Strangers You Know” 2 airs on M-Net, DStv channel 101, on Sundays at 8pm.

  • ’Did Michael Jackson speak Setswana?’, asks Trevor Noah

    ’Did Michael Jackson speak Setswana?’, asks Trevor Noah

    Many people can attest to this. You hear a song, it hits the right spot and before long, you start singing along, years on, you realise that you’ve been misquoting the lyrics all along. Feeling embarrassed? Don’t.

    We are all guilty of mishearing the lyrics and creating our own. During the recent throwback episodes of The Daily Show, actor and comedian Trevor Noah shared the South African version of Michael Jackson’s popular classic Don’t stop ’til you get enough, which includes some parts of the song been sung in Setswana.

    “In South Africa, we didn’t know what he was saying … so we thought he was signing in Setswana,” says Trevor, referring to Michael Jackson’s 1979 hit single Don’t stop ’til you get enough.

    “So when we get to that part (chorus) we will go … ke bao, ka dibotsotso, tjelete e fedile … which loosely translates to fashionistas looking dapper in their expensive jeans, but they have no money (because they probably used it all, buying lavish gear).

    Trevor said many fans particularly in South Africa were convinced that the King of Pop could sing in African languages too.

    “(Until) someone said, ‘that’s not what he’s saying’ and I was like, ‘no, you got it wrong,”’ Trevor said.

    Trevor’s comments about the song sparked a humorous conversation on social media, with fans sharing their own version of the popular hit track.

    “SO TRUE @trevornoah 🤣🤣🤣 I so remember and was so shocked and disappointed to learn the lyrics weren’t in MY language and weren’t as I had sung them all that time!! 🤣🤣🤣 You just took me back!” said Shadi M on Instagram.

    Another user Gisselle said: “It’s funny bc we Congolese ppl thought he was speaking Lingala 🤣”

    “Oh my gosh, this is so true. For the longest, my cousin convinced me that Michael Jackson was speaking a Ghanaian dialect and so I will belt it out in that dialect with confidence. Hmm, hmm,” said Aba Odooma.

    “Am from Kenya and we thought he was singing in Kikuyu too which is my mother tongue. 😂,” said Faith Ruru.

    “We thought it was speaking Ewe in Togo😂😂. Indeed MJ was the Universal Man,” Lean said.

    Check out the iconic Don’t stop ’til you get enough by Michael Jackson.

  • Andile’s baby mama Sithelo Shozi returns to Instagram after brief hiatus

    Andile’s baby mama Sithelo Shozi returns to Instagram after brief hiatus

    Local DJ Sithelo Shozi has returned to Instagram after a brief hiatus following the surprise wedding of Andile Mpisane.

    Shozi is known to be a regular on the photo-sharing app, but her presence on the platform became irregular after the father of her two children – Flo and Coco, went on one knee to somebody else.

    The Royal AM soccer boss sent shockwaves across Mzansi with his engagement and wedding to Tamia Louw.

    Shozi, during the frenzy that the wedding had created, was as quiet as a church mouse on social media as the public weighed in.

    Social media users had plenty to say about the entanglement that had unfolded.

    Shozi made her social media return in the new year by sharing pictures of her New Year’s eve celebrations.

    The DJ shared a series of snaps that showed off the fun night she had. In her caption, she wrote, “…living for the nights that I can’t remember with the people that I won’t forget ✨”

     

    View this post on Instagram

     

    A post shared by Sithelo Shozi (@_sithelo)

    Her followers were delighted that she had finally returned to the social media streets as a form of proof of life was needed after all the drama.

    One follower, @skye.mkhize, commented that they had missed Shozi and were happy and excited to see her on social media.

    The follower was not alone as there are several other comments welcoming the “Forever” hitmaker back to the Instagram streets.

    While her return was a joyful one, some social media users couldn’t help but pick on Shozi’s photo-shoot set-up.

    For the snaps, Shozi had a cute set up inside a bathroom. There were black, gold and silver balloons and also a silver foil backdrop.

    The mom of three is seen dressed in a little leopard print number and is joined by friends. In one of her snaps, Shozi poses inside the bathtub.

    Prior to Mpisane getting hitched to someone else, he and Sithelo were publicly romantically linked.

    Shozi had been vocal on social media, saying she wouldn’t leave Mpisane, even if he cheated on her.

    She once said she’d rather fight a lion than break up with him and that she and Mpisane would only be separated by death.

    Mpisane had even bought Sithelo a new luxury BMW a month prior to going official with Louw.

    While Mpisane has moved on, Shozi is yet to delete the picture of him on her Instagram account.

  • Facts about cardiac arrest

    Facts about cardiac arrest

    Our heart is one of the toughest organs of our body. Its main function is to pump oxygenated blood throughout the body. A cardiac arrest occurs when the heart stops functioning unexpectedly.

    It generally results from an electrical disturbance in the heart, which causes irregular heartbeats. This hampers the pumping action of the heart, stopping the blood flow through the body. A person can lose consciousness and die within minutes if immediate treatment is not given.

    What are the symptoms of cardiac arrest?
    Cardiac arrest is a sudden and severe condition. It can cause:

    Sudden collapse
    Loss of consciousness
    Loss of breathing
    No heartbeat
    Even though cardiac arrest is an unexpected condition, you may experience certain symptoms moments before a complete arrest. The early symptoms are as follows:

    Difficulty in breathing
    Feeling dizzy
    Chest pain
    Nausea and vomiting
    When to see a doctor?
    You should talk to your doctor immediately if you notice symptoms like difficulty in breathing, chest pain, loss of consciousness, or any of the signs mentioned above.

    What are its causes?
    Most of the cardiac arrests happen when the electrical system od a diseased heart malfunctions. Such malfunction may cause an abnormal heart rhythm like ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia. A few cardiac arrests can also be caused by extreme slowing of the heart’s rhythm (also called bradycardia).

    Such irregular heartbeats which can cause cardiac arrest, are considered life-threatening arrhythmias.

    Other causes of cardiac arrest include:

    Scarring of the heart tissue: This scarring could be due to a prior heart attack or may be another cause. A heart that’s enlarged or scarred from any cause is likely to develop life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias. The first 6 months following a heart attack represents a particularly high-risk period for sudden cardiac arrest in those patients suffering from a atherosclerotic heart disease.
    Cardiomyopathy (a thickened heart muscle): Damage to your heart muscle can be the cause of heart valve disease, high blood pressure, or other causes. An unhealthy heart muscle may make you more prone to a sudden cardiac arrest, especially if you also have heart failure.
    Heart medications: Under some conditions, various heart drugs can set the stage for arrhythmias that may lead to a sudden cardiac arrest. This may look odd but, anti-arrhythmic medications used for the treatment of arrhythmias can sometimes produce ventricular arrhythmias even at normally prescribed doses. This is known as a “proarrhythmic” effect. Major changes in blood levels of magnesium and potassium (from using diuretics, for instance) can also cause life-threatening arrhythmias and cardiac arrest.
    Electrical abnormalities: Certain electrical abnormalities such as Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome and Long QT syndrome may cause sudden cardiac arrest in children and young people.
    Recreational drug use: Use of some recreational drugs may also cause sudden cardiac arrest, even in otherwise healthy people
    Blood vessel abnormalities: In some rare cases, congenital blood vessel abnormalities, particularly in the aorta or coronary arteries, may lead to cardiac arrest. Often the adrenaline released during intense physical activity acts as a trigger for a sudden cardiac arrest when such abnormalities are present.
    Who is at risk for cardiac arrest?
    You may be at risk of having a cardiac arrest if you suffer from the following heart conditions:

    Coronary Artery Disease
    Irregular Heart Valves
    Heart Arrhythmia
    Electrical Impulse Problems
    Previous Episode of Heart Attack
    Apart from the above-mentioned conditions, there are various other risk factors like

    Age: With increasing age, the risk of a cardiac arrest increases.
    Family history: If anyone in your family has had a history of heart problems, you are at a greater risk.
    Stress: Stress is a major culprit. It is linked to a number of diseases, including cardiac arrests.
    Electrolyte disturbance( electrolytes such as potassium,calcium,magnesium etc)
    What are the treatment options available?
    The available treatment options include immediate treatment and long term treatment.

    Immediate treatment
    CPR: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is needed for treating sudden cardiac arrest immediately.
    Defibrillation: A device is programmed to send an electrical shock to the heart when it detects ventricular defibrillation. This stops the heart momentarily and causes it to go back to its normal rhythm.

  • Kanye West Caught With Two Women Before Date With Actress Julia Fox

    Kanye West Caught With Two Women Before Date With Actress Julia Fox

    Kanye West might be continually pining for his estranged wife back, but it seems he is also enjoying life while his marriage is in limbo.

    On Saturday (Dec. 1), the billionaire rapper was spotted with two women at a hotel in Miami, according to photos obtained by DailyMail. The photos were captured from a distance. One shows Kanye and a woman on a hotel balcony. Kanye and the crop top-wearing woman stand a few feet apart. Kanye appears to be checking his phone while the unknown woman stares off into the distance. More photos show another woman who is wearing an open blouse emerging from the hotel room and standing out on the balcony.

    The photos were taken only hours before Kanye reportedly went on a date with actress Julia Fox at Carbone restaurant in Miami on Saturday night, though sources say there’s currently nothing serious going on between the two entertainers. This Miami romp comes on the heels of Kanye spending time in Belize and Houston where he reportedly partied with Instagram model Yasmine Lopez.

    While Kanye seems to be enjoying the single life, he has shown clear signs that he still wants to get back with his estranged wife, Kim Kardashian. Besides openly calling for her return like he did at the Free Larry Hoover Benefit Concert, Kanye seems to be trying to stay as close to her as possible. Kanye recently purchased a mansion directly across the street from Kim’s current home, paying way more than market value. Kanye doesn’t even intend on staying in the current rendition of the home and has plans to knock it down and build a new one.
