    I tried my luck with ice skiing last week. Needless to mention, I fell few times, but then managed to balance myself and enjoy. I am certainly going to spend more time on this new hobby and hope to be good enough some day. Horse riding is my next mission and would love to learn some tricks from members. On treadmill I can walk at the speed of 4.3 miles per hour for one hour continuously and run at 7 MPH (don’t ask for how long…LOL). I enjoy swimming and can cross almost whole length of pool underwater.

    Thumbs up How to Manage Anger

    How to Manage Anger

    January 19, 2006

    Last fortnight, columnist Claude Arpi recounted the lessons a heart attack taught him.

    Last week, in a follow-up piece, he listed an action plan to tackle stress.

    In the concluding segment of this series, Claude lists advice he was given on anger management by the fine doctors at the Institute of Cardio-Vascular Diseases in Chennai:

    For those who have a tough time controlling their anger, an anger management plan might help. Think of this as your emotional control class, and try these self-help anger management tips:

    Ask yourself: 'Is my anger necessary enough and is the issue worth it?' Chances are, you will see things from a calmer perspective.

    'What is the worst consequence of the object of my anger?' If someone cut in front of you at the bookstore checkout, you will probably find that three minutes is not such a big deal.

    'Is it going to help me or others in any way?' The anger is going to affect you physically as well as your relationship with others who get affected by the anger.

    Imagine yourself doing the same thing. Come on, admit that you sometimes cut in front of another driver, too, sometimes by accident. Do you get angry at yourself?

    Ask yourself: 'Did that person do this to me on purpose?' In many cases, you will see that they were just careless or in a rush, and really did not mean you any harm.

    Try counting to 10 before saying anything. This may not address the anger directly, but it can minimise the damage you will do while angry.

    Try some 'new and improved' variations of counting to 10. For instance, try counting to 10 with a deep slow breath in between each number. Deep breathing helps people relax.

    Ask yourself about the anger-inducing issue/situation/event: Is there any alternate way to look at it? You may be looking from an angle that makes you feel angry about the situation. If you look at it from some other angle you may be able to understand or you won't get angry at all.

    Visualise a relaxing experience: Close your eyes, and travel there in your mind. Make it your stress-free oasis.

    Thumbs up A good heart = 15 mins of laughter!

    A good heart = 15 mins of laughter!

    March 22, 2005

    good laugh can help build healthy heart muscles!

    It's hard to believe that watching Munnabhai MBBS or a David Dhawan potboiler can actually help reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.

    But according to a study conducted by the University of Maryland Medical Centre, USA, watching a funny movie has a healthy effect on blood vessel function.

    On the other hand, watching mentally stressful movie can cause the lining of the blood vessels to narrow and restrict blood flow.

    Says Michael Miller of the University in an online report: "Laughter offsets the impact of mental stress."

    Miller presented the results of his study recently at the scientific session of the American College of Cardiology.

    Dr S P Bijotra, vice chairperson, Department of Medicine, Sir Ganga Ram Hospital here, New Delhi, says, "Humour is an essential part of psychotherapy treatment that we give heart patients. We advocate that five minutes of laughter is good enough to rejuvenate the body for 12 hours."

    "The ability to laugh, either naturally or as learned behaviour, may have important implications for India, where heart disease remains the number one killer," says K K Agarwal, vice president, Heart Care Foundation of India.

    "Humour therapy," says Dr Bijotra, "is used extensively in yoga and other alternative therapies. Joggers laughing heartily in parks most early mornings is a common sight.

    "But more and more hospitals are waking up to the fact and even plan to have humour specialists and separate humour therapy departments."

    Dr Agarwal says people with heart disease are less likely to recognise humour or use it to get out of uncomfortable situations. They generally laugh less, even in positive situations and display more anger and hostility.

    He says mental stress is also associated with impairment of the endothelium, the protective barrier lining of our blood vessels.

    This can cause a series of inflammatory reactions that lead to fat and cholestrol build up in the coronary arteries and, ultimately, lead to heart attack.

    In the Maryland study, researchers had a group of 20 healthy men and women watch two movies at opposite ends of the emotional spectrum. They then measured the movies' effects on their blood vessels via ultrasound.

    The results showed that blood flow was reduced in 14 out of 20 volunteers after watching movie clips that caused mental stress.

    But beneficial blood vessel effects and relaxation were found in 19 of 20 volunteers watching the funny movie.

    "We don't recommend that you do laugh and not exercise," says Miller, adding, "but we do recommend that you try to laugh on a regular basis. Thirty minutes of exercise three times a week and 15 minutes of laughter on a daily basis is good for the vascular system."

    Thumbs up Tomato sauce can reduce cancer risk!

    Tomato sauce can reduce cancer risk!

    ANI | March 17, 2005

    Tomato sauce, it seems, has a special chemical ingredient that can reduce the risk of pancreatic cancer.

    According to researchers at the universities of Montreal and Ottawa, Canada, the chemical lycopene found in tomatoes has antioxidant properties that help reduce pancreatic cancer risk by almost a third if taken regularly.

    The researchers claim that if lycopene is taken in a liquid form, chances of combatting the disease are better. They say the oil used in the ketchup enables faster absorption of antioxidants by the intestines.

    If doctors are to be believed, the location of the pancreas inside the abdomen makes it difficult for them to spot the disease.

    Even when symptoms like abdominal pain and weight loss appear, they are hardly noticed. As a result, few people survive more than one year after the diagnosis.

    Although evidence suggests that daily intake of fruit and vegetables may reduce the risk of ailment, the latest research that surveyed 462 cases of pancreatic cancer and did a comparative analysis of the eating habits of cancer patients with healthy people, has revealed that tomatoes have the power to prevent the particular type of cancer.

    According to the Daily Mail, researchers also found that men who ate tomatoes and tomato products every day were 31 per cent less prone to the disease, while in women, the risk declined by nine per cent.

    Thumbs up Techniques to eliminate worries

    Techniques to eliminate worries

    Write down what you are worried about. Do your best to carefully think of what you are really worried about. There is said to be only a few dozen or so general fears. No one seems to agree what a 'general' fear is, and if you could overcome your general fears, you could eliminate worry completely. For example, about job demands, about the future, about family or social responsibilities.

    Get all the facts related to the problem and don't allow yourself to be misled by any false information and to even more worry.

    Analyse the facts. Once you have enough information to help you face the worry, make some sense out of the data. What does it all mean, if anything, at this point?

    Ask yourself what is the worst that can happen. At this point, you can make a more realistic assessment of what the worst-case scenario would be.

    Accept the worst. Acceptance is almost always an instant cure for worry. Acceptance, however, is not easy and often takes time. By accepting the worst, you are in a situation where things can only improve.

    Improve on the worst. Here is where you consider the law of averages. What are the chances the worst will actually come to pass? Is it really worth worrying about?

    Decide what you can do about it. Brainstorm. List everything that comes to mind that you can do about improving the situation. Spend as much time as needed on this part.

    Act on the decision. If there is any point to worry, it is about taking action toward making positive changes. From your list of possible actions, decide what you are going to do and take action right away. Do not procrastinate. The longer you let your worries build inside, the more emotional and physical damage you are doing to yourself. It is probable that through this process you will end up eliminating the worry before you complete all the steps.

    That is fine. The point of the exercise is to eliminate the worry, not to complete all the steps of the process.

    Thumbs up Lifestyle answers for cancer, heart disease

    Lifestyle answers for cancer, heart disease

    Ehtasham Khan | June 17, 2005

    Is your protruding belly the bane of your existence?

    Besides being a blemish on your figure, a 34 to 40-inch belly may also be a reservoir of metabolic risk factors.

    In medical terminology, this condition is known as Metabolic Syndrome.

    MS could set the stage for health disorders, like heart disease, cancers of the breast, uterus, prostate, colon and more.

    Dr Balbir Singh, Senior Consultant and Interventional Cardiologist of New Delhi's Escorts Heart Centre, warns of the risks and suggests steps for prevention and treatment of this condition.

    Health problems associated with MS

    Consistently high levels of insulin and glucose are linked to many harmful changes to the body.

    These include:

    Heart disease

    i. Damage to the lining of coronary and other arteries is a a key step towards the development of heart disease or a stroke.

    ii. The kidneys' ability to retain salt is enhanced by the high insulin levels, leading to high blood pressure, heart disease and stroke.

    iii. An increase in triglyceride levels results in an increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease.

    iv. Bad cholesterol is formed due to the presence of high amount of fat in the bloodstream for a long period of time.

    This invades the artery walls which can block the arteries and cause heart attacks and strokes.

    v. A slowing down of insulin production can signal the start of Type 2 diabetes, a disease that can increase your risk for a heart attack or stroke.

    It may also damage your eyes, nerves or kidneys.

    Breast cancer

    Research has shown that MS can be one of the causes of breast cancer.

    Women with high levels of insulin are more prone to breast cancer.

    The reason: insulin acts as a growth factor and breast tumor cells have more insulin receptors than normal cells.

    Thus, high insulin levels cause the cancer cells to grow more quickly.

    How to prevent and treat MS

    Treatment of insulin resistant state

    The safest, effective and most prefered way is to correct the underlying insulin resistant state.

    ~ Lose weight

    Moderate weight loss, in the range of five percent to seven percent of body weight, can help restore your body's ability to recognise insulin and greatly reduce the chance that the syndrome will evolve into a more serious illness.

    ~ Exercise regularly

    Increased activity alone can improve your insulin levels. Exercise causes muscle contractions that push sugar inside the cells even if you are insulin resistant.

    Also, it works on the fat stored inside muscle and liver cells (the main factor behind the syndrome), and not the fat deposited just below the skin.

    A brisk 30-minute walk everyday can result in weight loss, improved blood pressure, improved cholesterol levels and a reduced risk of developing diabetes.

    A well planned exercise routine also increases the number of insulin receptors on the muscle cells, thus enhancing the inward movement of glucose.

    Swimming, jogging, biking and aerobics are other useful options.

    Change your diet!

    ~ Maintain a diet that keeps carbohydrates to no more than 50 percent of total calories.

    ~ There are two types of carbohydrates: simple and complex.

    Simple ones are easily digestible, enhance sugar and insulin level rapidly. These include:

    White flour
    White rice
    Potatoes
    Alcohol
    The body has to work harder to digest complex carbohydrates, so the sugar can enter the blood slowly.

    Make complex carbohydrates a big part of your diet. These include:

    Whole grain bread
    Brown rice
    Unrefined sugars (like cookies, crackers)
    ~ The same reason can be applied for the foods with high fibre content like legumes (like beans), whole grain, fruits and vegetables.

    ~ Reduce the intake of meats and poultry.

    ~ As much as 30 percent to 45 percent of the daily calories can come from fat. But consume healthy fats, such as those in canola oil, olive oil, flaxseed oil and nuts.

    ~ Women should consume no more than one drink a day, and two the count is two drinks from men.

    Manage stress

    Stress and lack of sleep can make you more prone to Syndrome X.

    Yoga, meditation, pursuing a hobby and getting enough sleep are the stress relieving activities that you can easily incorporate into your routine.

    Thumbs up No time for yoga? Check this out!

    No time for yoga? Check this out!

    February 21, 2005

    Do you travel a lot in the course of your work?

    Do you often complan that there is never enough time to indulge in lengthy yoga sessions?

    You can now opt for the tailormade Five Minute Yoga, a therapy claimed to have been designed especially for jet-setters.

    Easy yoga, a new buzz word for corporates and professionals who just do not find time to de-stress with their hectic schedule, is catching up fast, with therapists boasting of lakhs of such followers.

    "There are asanas one can do while tying the knot of your tie, while on way to your workplace, on aircraft, practically anywhere," says Alankrita, president, Indian Renaissance, that deals with naturopathy, yoga, meditation and psycho-spiritual counselling.

    "Keeping in mind the needs of these professionals, we have conceptualised the Five Minute Yoga that requires five minutes to practice. These are tested to give positive results within a month, cure stress-related ailments and increase productivity," she claims.

    But healers who work in Reiki and Pranic healing say there can be no shortcut to effective and thorough therapy.

    "People who claim to heal through shortcut means," says Dr Sharda, a corporate counsellor, "must definitely have a commercial purpose in mind." She is also a healer and naturopathy therapist.

    "The NGO plans to teach simple yoga techniques to people," adds Alankrita, "so that they can grasp the ancient Indian system of healing."

    Apparently, there is a quick solution for most ailments, including insomnia, stress, paralysis and neurological problems.

    "Colour therapy is effective in curing insomnia. The Soham technique is another such way to address sleeping disorders," says Alankrita.

    Soham literally means, 'I am that', or a representation of that boundless energy.

    "Swar vigyan also plays a crucial role in reducing tension and requires not more than five minutes," she says, adding this also involves watching your breath or the process of inhalation and exhalation.

    "There was a sudden demand for Reiki some time ago," explains Alankrita. "Now it has receded. But there are so many other options to choose from in the market."

    With new options hitting the market every day, people under stress who are increasingly leading a global life are game for anything that is made easy for them.

    "Competition has reached a high and there is a lot of hype surrounding a particular product," Sharda says, adding, "the method of healing requires its own time to show results and the person's faith plays a big part in the healing process."

    Healer The Divya Yoga clinics of Ramdev, healer and yoga teacher, boasts of over 160 million followers, or yoddhas, as the
    centre calls them.

    "Almost 90 percent of the results comes from Pranayam. And not a single technique takes more than 10 to 20 minutes to perform," says Swami Balakishan at the Hardwar Ashram.

    Thumbs up Diet dos and don'ts for diabetics!

    Diet dos and don'ts for diabetics!

    Priya Khanna, Seema Tarneja | March 15, 2005

    This is the concluding part of a two-part series on diet tips for the diabetics, by dietitians Priya Khanna and Seema Tarneja:

    Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder in which the body fails to convert sugars, starches and other foods into energy.

    Many of the foods you eat are normally converted into a type of sugar called glucose during digestion. The bloodstream then carries glucose through the body. The hormone, insulin, then turns glucose into quick energy or is stored for futher use.

    In diabetic people, the body either does not make enough insulin or it cannot use the insulin correctly. This is why too much glucose builds in the bloodstream.

    There are two major types of diabetes:

    1. Type 1

    This is popularly known as Juvenile Onset Diabetes.

    Here, the body produces little or no insulin. It occurs most often in childhood or in the teens and could be inherited.

    People with this type of diabetes need daily injections of insulin. They must balance their daily intake of food and activites carefully with their insulin shots to stay alive.

    2. Type 2

    Also known as Adult Onset Diabetes, this occurs around 35 to 40 years. The more common of the two types, it accounts for about 80 per cent of the diabetics.

    Here, though the pancreas produce adequate insulin, body cells show reduced sensitivity towards it.

    Type 2 diabetes is usually triggered by obesity. The best way to fight it is by weight loss, exercise and dietary control.

    Sometimes, oral medication or insulin injections are also needed.

    ~ Symptoms of diabetes

    Here are a few:

    Extreme thirst and hunger
    Frequent urination
    Sores or bruises that heal slowly
    Dry, itchy skin
    Unexplained weight loss
    Unusual tiredness or drowsiness
    Tingling or numbness in the hands or feet
    Whether Type 1 or 2, diabetics need a balance of diet and exercise.

    Here are some foods you can eat, and some foods you must avoid!

    Foods you must avoid!

    i. Salt

    Salt is the greatest culprit for diabetics. You get enough salt from vegetables in inorganic form, so reduce the intake of inorganic salt.

    ii. Sugar

    Sucrose, a table sugar, provides nothing but calories and carbohydrates.

    Also, you need calcium to digest sucrose. Insufficient sucrose intake might lead to calcium being leached off the bones.

    Substitute sucrose with natural sugar, like honey, jaggery (gur), etc.

    iii. Fat

    Excessive fat intake is definitely not a good habit.

    Try and exclude fried items from your diet totally.

    But, remember, you must have a small quantity of oil to absorb fat-soluble vitamins, especially vitamin E.

    iv. For non-vegetarians

    Try and stop the intake of red meat completely.

    Try to go in for a vegetarian diet. If you cannot, decrease the consumption of eggs and poultry.

    You can, however, eat lean fish two to three times a week.

    v. Whole milk and products

    Try to switch to low fat milk and its products like yogurt (curd).

    Replace high fat cheese with low fat cottage cheese.

    vi. Tea and coffee

    Do not have than two cups of the conventional tea or decaffeinated coffee every day.

    Try to switch to herbal teas.

    vii. White flour and its products

    Replace these with whole grains, wholewheat or soya breads and unpolished rice.

    viii. Foods with a high glycemic index

    Avoid white rice, potatoes, carrots, breads and banana -- they increase the blood-sugar levels.

    Special food for diabetics

    i. Bitter gourd (karela)

    This vegetable contains a high dosage of 'plant insulin'. It lowers the blood-sugar levels effectively.

    Have the juice of three to four karelas early morning on an empty stomach.

    As a vegetable, too, it can be taken on a regular basis.

    Powder the seeds of karela (measuring 1 teaspoon), mix with water and drink it.

    ii. Fenugreek (methi)

    It is the most common food used to control diabetes.

    Gulp a teaspoonful of these seeds with a glass of water daily.

    Soak the seeds overnight. Have the water in which the seeds were soaked.

    You can make a chutney with methi seeds. You can also eat them sprouted, dried and powdered, or mix them in wheat flour to make chapattis.

    iii. Indian blackberry (jamun)

    This fruit is very effective in preventing and controlling diabetes.

    Powder the stone of the fruit and eat it -- it contains glucoside, which prevents the conversion of starch into sugars.

    iv. Garlic

    This is used to lower blood-sugar levels.

    Garlic is rich in potassium and replaces the potassium which gets lost in urine.

    It also contains zinc and sulphur, which are components of insulin.

    Take about three to four flakes of freshly crushed garlic daily.

    v. Onion

    Because of its diuretic and digestive properties, onion works against diabetes.

    Raw onion is more useful.

    vi. Flaxseed

    This is the richest source of Omega 3 fatty acids.

    It helps control diabetes because it maintains the sensitivity of the cell membrane, facilitates insulin, and thereby the uptake of glucose by the cells.

    vii. Fibre

    Soluble fibre, found in apples, kidney beans, oatmeal, soyabean, etc, help control diabetes.

    These aid slow digestion and absorption of nutrients, resulting in a slow and steady release of glucose.

    They soak up excess bile acids found in the intestinal tract, the same acids that are converted to blood cholesterol.

    They also help empty the stomach and trigger satiety that can help Type 2 diabetics to achieve weight loss goals.

    viii. Cinnamon solution


    Water extracts of cinnamon have been found to promote glucose metabolism and reduce cholesterol.

    You can boil cinnamon sticks in water and drink this water.

    ix. Antioxidants

    Diabetes is often associated with conditions like heart disease, diabetic retinopathy, immune deficiency and kidney disease.

    Many are caused by free radical damage. Therefore, make sure you include antioxidants, especially vitamin C (lemons), E, selenium, zinc and chromium (Brewer's yeast), in your diet, as they have been shown to control blood sugar levels.
