Food cravings can lead us to choose unhealthy food and may disrupt our efforts to follow a healthy diet for healthy living.   What Is A Food Craving? A food craving is an uncontrollable force that inclines an individual to consume a specific type of food, specifically unhealthy. Why We Crave For Food? Human bodies crave specific kinds of unhealthy food because our brain releases feel-good hormones called dopamine, while the stomach starts producing hunger hormones. When we consume junk food loaded with sugar, fructose, starch, and corn syrup we feel satisfied for a short time. After we satisfy our craving, dopamine releases again, and along with dopamine a happy hormone, serotonin is released to make us feel better for a short period. This temporary happiness ends up being depressed and anxious. Our body releases another hormone leptin that signals our body to stop eating junk food.

Why Doctors Recommend Blood Thinners The doctors prescribe these medicines to those people who have: Risk of heart attack or stroke Irregula...

Image
  Taking proper care of your skin after Hijama cupping therapy prevents infections, redness, soreness and bleeding. Hijama Cupping Therapy is an alternative medical therapy that involves suction. Cups are applied to the skin to facilitate suction. The suction is like a deep tissue massage intended to mobilize the blood flow and speed up the natural healing procedure. It is necessary to educate the client about the skin's sensitivity after the Hijama is done. How Does Hijama Cupping Leave Marks? When a negative pressure is drawn in the cup through a suction gun, the  suction pulls the skin up, and as a result, tiny blood vessels and capillaries on the upper part of the skin break. This is why the area around the cup starts changing colour. This process is called ecchymosis or discolouration of the skin. This process causes discoloration by producing chemicals, known as inflammatory mediators and by forming tiny blood clots under the skin. When the gap between the layers of the ...
