WELLNESS TIP: LIGHT THERAPY CAN BEAT JET LAG AND MANAGE SLEEP SCHEDULE: Using light therapy will affect the production of melatonin in the body. Melatonin is a hormone produced by the body during darkness and is broken down during daylight – and its presence or absence effectively causes you to feel sleepy in the dark and awake in the sunshine. An intense application of light is thought to ‘reset’ the body clock by suppressing the production of melatonin – thereby keeping you awake during the daytime at your destination. Some people have been able to avoid, or at least minimize the effects of, jet lag by using light therapy – so why not try it?" - Light therapy | Four Alternative Ways To Beat Jet Lag - Yahoo She Philippines

WELLNESS TIP: AROMATHERAPY CAN BEAT JET LAG. Use essential plant oils to dab on your wrists, temples and feet. Some of these essential oils – such as those containing grapefruit, cardamom and rosemary – are stimulating, and help to keep you alert and refreshed if you need to stay awake. On the other hand, some of the oils have calming, sedative properties – such as those containing lavender and mandarin – which can be used to aid relaxation if you’re having trouble sleeping during or after your flight - Aromatherapy | Four Alternative Ways To Beat Jet Lag - Yahoo She Philippines

Childless couples are happier with their relationships - New research from Open University in the UK finds that couples without children are more satisfied with their relationships than couples with kids. In a study of more than 5,000 adults, findings showed that childless couples have happier marriages and feel more valued in their relationships, reports The Guardian. But researchers also found that women without children were the least happy with their lives overall, whereas mothers were happier than any other group, even if they had troubles in their relationships. Yet fathers were twice as likely as mothers to report a lack of sexual intimacy as the biggest problem in their relationship. Findings also showed that important factors in keeping a relationship healthy included saying thank you and giving compliments. - Yahoo She Philippines

Lycopene (which has a higher presence in cooked tomatoes than other red fruit and vegetables) interrupts cancer's ability to connect with and attach to the blood supply. The study at the University of Portsmouth, published in the British Journal of Nutrition, suggests that getting a sufficient amount of lycopene could intersect the growth of cancer. - 5 best foods for men - Yahoo She Philippines

WELLNESS TIPS TO FIGHT PROSTATE CANCER: Eat Tomatoes Tomatoes are considered to have anti-cancer properties, mainly due to their antioxidant content, but more specifically, their lycopene content. This type of carotenoid is what gives tomatoes their colour, but one laboratory study has shown that lycopene (which has a higher presence in cooked tomatoes than other red fruit and vegetables) interrupts cancer's ability to connect with and attach to the blood supply. The study at the University of Portsmouth, published in the British Journal of Nutrition, suggests that getting a sufficient amount of lycopene could intersect the growth of cancer. - 5 best foods for men - Yahoo She Philippines

WELLNESS TIPS FOR COUPLES: Natural Family Planning (NFP) or “fertility awareness does not use any medications or devices. Combine the 3 Methods for Effective Result: 1. CALENDAR METHOD Acquaint yourself with your menstrual cycle. Record the first day or Day 1 of your cycle every month for at least 6 months. This will give you an idea of the length of your monthly cycle. Take note of the longest and the shortest cycles. From the longest cycle (eg. 35 days) subtract 11 (answer=24). And from the shortest cycle (eg. 28 days) subtract 18 (answer = 10). You are only fertile one day, or more specifically, 12 hours, each month. It can happen anytime from Day 10 to Day 24 of your cycle. If you want to start your family early, have sex during these fertile days. On the other hand, if babies aren’t in your plans for the next few years, then avoid each other on said days. 2. BASAL BODY TEMPERATURE METHOD Take and record your temperature by mouth every morning before you get out of bed. You will notice a steady, constant daily temperature around 36.1 C to 36.4 C. Then, one day, you will note an increase in temperature to around 36.8 C to 37.1 C. This means you have already ovulated. The temperature will stay in the 37 C level until you get your period again. At that point, it will go down again to the 36 C level. If you achieve pregnancy during this cycle, your temperature will remain elevated indefinitely. 3. CERVICAL MUCUS METHOD The last of the fertility awareness methods is probably the easiest to follow. Take a sample of your vaginal discharge every day. Familiarize yourself with the consistency because it varies depending on the day of the cycle. On the days that the discharge is clear and slippery, those are the days that the sperm can swim all the way up and meet the egg and achieve a pregnancy. While on the days that the discharge is thick and clumpy, the sperm will be trapped and will not be able to meet the egg and no baby will be formed.- CONTRACEPTION 101: What you need to know about fertility awareness (Part 1) - Yahoo She Philippines
