Pregnant women do more regular exercise than non-expectant peers
London, Oct 22 (ANI): A survey has found that pregnant women are fitter and take more regular exercise than those not expecting a baby because they want to give the best possible start to their unborn child, to relax and to get fit for the birth.
Around a third of the women questioned for the study admitted never exercising before getting pregnant, the Daily Mail reported.
The survey was commissioned by Mumsnet for the Baby Show at Earls Court in London later this month found that swimming is the most popular exercise, with 60 per cent taking to the pool while pregnant, followed by walking and yoga.
However, almost a quarter said they continued to enjoy high-impact workouts at the gym, exercise classes or jogging when expecting.
Most said they worked out for around two hours a week - an hour more than the UK female average - but 15 per cent said they exercised for up to 5.5 hours a week to stay in shape.
"Pregnancy is all about changing your habits to be as healthy as possible," said Mumsnet founder Justine Roberts.
Around 44 per cent said they continued to do something to keep fit until they gave birth, with more than a third of those who did stop before they reached full term quitting due to tiredness.
Around 28 per cent of the women surveyed said the well being of their unborn baby was behind their desire to stay fit, followed by exercising to relax and getting fit in time for the birth.
And, it seems, the desire to be fit and healthy doesn't end once the child has arrived.
An impressive 70 per cent of women admitted going back to the gym to shed their baby weight in the months after the birth. (ANI)
How to Make a Long Distance Relationship Work
So you’ve decided to go the long distance way of relationship.
Though we don’t want to discourage you from taking the plunge, you have to admit the fact that handling it is going to be a lot (and we mean titanic) more difficult than a normal romantic liaison. You should only get into a long term relationship once you are sure of your love and devotion and once the relationship goes long distance, you need pay extra attention and care to it so as to nurture it.
Here are certain ways in which you can make a long distance relationship work.
Here are certain ways in which you can make a long distance relationship work.
Communicate With Her

Communication is the key to making a relationship work. It is doubly important when you are far away from your girlfriend. Let her know if something is bothering you as keeping things to yourself is only likely to make things go from bad to worse.
Visit Each Other
 |
| http://amazingphoto2.blogspot.com/ |
ake it a point to visit each other at least once in three months. You can take turns while travelling which will reduce the burden on you alone. This will help renew your romantic interests and bring in the element of touch which is almost crucial in a relationship.
Make Plans

When you plan to visit your partner or your partner decides to come over, ensure that you devote the entire time to her. Tell your friends and family that you won’t be able to make yourself available during that period. There isn’t anything better for her than getting your undivided attention.
Give Space to Your Partner

While giving your girlfriend attention is crucial, allowing each other some breathing space is also equally important. There is no need to know what she is up to 24/7.You should give her the freedom to live her life the way she wishes to.
Give More Time to the Relationship
 |

In a relationship, time plays a very important role in shaping it. Take out time to call/text/mail her and answer her call irrespective of how busy you think you are. Remember that your decision to go the distance came with the assurance that you would take the extra mile to keep the flame of your love burning bright.
No link to cancer in large-scale mobile phone study
The largest study of its kind found no link between long-term use of mobile phones and increased risk of brain tumours, the British Medical Journal (BMJ) reported on Friday.
Danish researchers found no evidence of enhanced risk among more than 350,000 mobile-phone subscribers whose health was monitored over 18 years.
Earlier research on the possible link between cell phone use and cancerous tumours has been inconclusive, partly due to lack of long-term data.
In June, the World Health Organisation's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classified the radio-frequency electromagnetic fields emitted by mobile phones as "possibly carcinogenic to humans."
The new study follows up an earlier investigation that compared the cancer risk faced by all mobile phone subscribers in Denmark -- some 420,000 people -- with the rest of the adult population.
Patrizia Frei, a postdoctoral research fellow at the Danish Cancer Society, and colleagues examined health records from 1990 to 2007 for 358,403 cell phone subscribers.
Overall, 10,729 tumours of the central nervous system were diagnosed.
But among people with the longest mobile phone use -- 13 years or more -- cancer rates were nearly the same as for non-subscribers.
"The extended follow-up allowed us to investigate effects in people who had used mobile phones for 10 years or more, and this long-term use was not associated with higher risks of cancer," the study concluded.
The findings, however, could not rule out the possibility of a "small to moderate increase in risk" for very heavy users, or people who have used cell phones for longer than 15 years.
"Further studies with large study populations where the potential for misclassification of exposure and selection bias is minimised are warranted," the researchers said.
In a commentary, Anders Ahlbom and Maria Feychting from Sweden's Karolinska Institute said the new evidence was reassuring but called for continued monitoring of health registers.
There are about five billion mobile phones registered in the world, a figure that continues to rise sharply along with the average amount of time spent using them.
The IARC does not issue formal recommendations, but its experts pointed in June to a number of ways consumers can reduce possible risk.
Texting and using hands-free sets for voice calls lower exposure to potentially harmful radiation, compared to device-to-ear voice calls, by at least 10-fold, they said.

Four Hidden Heart Attack Symptoms, Know the Signs
Most people associate heart attack symptoms with chest pain, pain in the shoulder, or other well-known signs. However, according to renowned cardiologist Dr. Chauncey Crandall, there are some signs that are so minor, many people ignore them or chalk them up to symptoms of a less threatening ailment.
Each year, about 785,000 Americans suffer a first heart attack. And 470,000 more people who’ve already had at least one attack suffer yet another one. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the United States. In fact, it kills more men and women each year than all cancers combined, and is responsible for nearly a third of all deaths.
Because of these factors, heart health is crucial for Americans. This is particularly true for those over 35, many of whom already have the early stages of cardiovascular disease without even realizing it.
And as stated before, when it comes to symptoms, most people think of chest pain, or perhaps pain in the left shoulder or arm. But there are other, less obvious signs that you could be experiencing a heart attack. Click here to see these hidden heart attack symptoms.
Unfortunately, 25 percent of all heart attacks happen “silently,” without clear or obvious signs. Common symptoms may be so mild or vague as to seem unrelated to the heart.
Cardiovascular expert Dr. Chauncey Crandall has created a free video presentation to help the public discover little-known warning signs of impending heart attack and heart disease before it’s too late to intervene and repair the damage. Click here to see these heart attack symptoms and know the warning signs.
Dr. Crandall, chief of the cardiac transplant program at the world-renowned Palm Beach Cardiovascular Clinic in Florida, practices on the front lines of interventional, vascular, and transplant cardiology.
“Most adults, especially those entering middle age, are basically sitting ducks when it comes to heart disease and attacks,” Dr. Crandall warns. “That’s unfortunate, because heart disease is totally unnecessary. With the proper knowledge of warning signs and potential symptoms, and a few simple steps, it can be prevented, reversed, even cured.”
In his free heart health video, Dr. Crandall discusses a number of simple strategies and tips to help prevent, reverse, and even cure heart disease. These are the very same strategies he uses with his own patients, who invest a great deal of time and money traveling to see him from all over the United States and several foreign countries.
And in this special heart health video presentation, Dr. Crandall also shares the real-life story of a “widow-maker” heart attack, a story personal to his own life.
“The information on this heart video could save your life,” said Newsmax Health Publisher Travis Davis. “At the very least, it could help you recognize the signs and know the symptoms to prevent severe, expensive, and debilitating heart disease problems down the road.”
Air Pollution
Traffic-related air pollution may put pregnant women at risk for a premature birth, according to a new study.
Researchers looked at 100,000 births among women in California who lived within five miles of an air quality monitoring station. The births spanned a 22-month period from June 2004.
Exposure to traffic-related air pollutants such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) was associated with up to a 30 percent greater risk of premature birth; exposure to ammonium nitrate fine particles was associated with a 21 percent increased risk, and exposure to benzene and fine particulate matter from diesel fumes was associated with a 10 percent higher risk, the University of California researchers found.
The study is published online Oct. 6 in the journalEnvironmental Health.
"Air pollution is known to be associated with low birth weight and premature birth. Our results show that traffic-related PAH are of special concern as pollutants, and that PAH sources besides traffic contributed to premature birth," Dr. Beate Ritz said in a journal news release.
"The increase in premature birth risk due to ammonium nitrate particles suggests secondary pollutants are also negatively impacting the health of unborn babies. To reduce the effects of these pollutants on public health, it is important that accurate modeling of local and regional spatial and temporal air pollution be incorporated into pollution policies," Ritz added.
How to Enjoy Life
Life is not enjoyable when you've taken the wrong path and slowly lost confidence, or when you are no longer happy with yourself. If this sounds like your life, you need to fix it!
Make your goals and order your steps to achieve them. Believe in and motivate yourself. Embrace an 'I can do it,and I will do it' attitude. Things will begin to happen as you see them.
This is an amazing fact. Life is not a bed of roses, but whenever we become truly aware of this fact, we begin to feel pleasure and things begin to bring us joy with bliss.
There are some mathematical truths which reveal tremendous ways to become ones rejuvenating along travailing path of life ; we have to set some criteria where we feel comfortable to assess and live with others in pleasant manner ; a seven point formula is same as seven steps, at every step you’ll feel a risen in the vision.
- Don't be fooled into thinking that drinking alcohol or taking drugs will make your life any more enjoyable. However, being safe and doing these things with the people you love, and not people you don't know, makes for great memories.
- If your friend is trying something very dangerous, don't copy him or her. This can result in serious injury,limping or even death.
