Oh sweeties. its time to party! cause its the holidays! my long awaited one. so gonna indulge myself with all the pamperings. not forgetting, this semester had been a busy, crucial, lousy but fun though. missing all the endless girls chats, roaming in the towns, crazy loud laughters and simply everything with you sweet people.

so health miracles..
DO YOU KNOW?

Fruit contains fructose so it has more calories than salad or vegetables, but an apple or orange will still give you only around 80 calories, as opposed to whopping 600 for a cheesburger.

More frequent mini-meals or light snacks that spread out your calorie intake evenly throughout the entire day help maintain steady balance in blood chemistry, avoiding peaks and dips in blood sugar and lowering cholesterol.

Water suppresses the appetite naturally and helps the body metabolize stored fat, actually reducing fat deposits. Make sure you get your 8 glasses a day if you want to stay slim.
Drinking the right amount of water helps maintain muscle tone by giving muscles their natural ability to contract.

When dehydrated, your body produces cholesterol, which surrounds the cells to protect the fluids within them. in the long term, this can damage general health. it can slow down metabolism since it springs the body into starvation mode and holds onto fat cells that contain high levels of fluids.

The high levels of leptin in apples and celery help the body metabolize fat cells and reduce fat storage in subcutaneous layers, helping you stay smooth and slim.

All alcohol is high in calories and could add up to 600 calories of your intake. soft drinks should also be limited. A can of cola contains 135 calories, and apart from the energy it has virtually no nutritional value. =X

Chocolate, far from being all bad, has been shown to ease the symtoms of PMS and depression, and it contains phenols, a type of antiioxidant that is thought to protect the health of the heart as well as lower cholesterol.

Tea, which is rich in polyphenols, has a protective effect on heart health, lowering blood pressure and helping heart health in the long term, particulary in older women.

thats bout it. duper dead. off.
