cold flu pro-cons

Keeping your body immune to colds and flu is a challenge during the change of seasons. After a hot summer as we move into autumn and winter, the change of season can be a time when colds and flu can strike at any time. We need to maintain a strong immune system.


Everyday we are exposed to many viruses and bacteria. When our immunity is low, we may become susceptible to catching colds and flu – therefore maintaining a strong immune system is vital.


Whether we are working long hours to keep to a deadline or simply dealing with the change in weather, it is important to keep our body healthy and strong. Supporting your immune system is the key to good long-term health.


Several protective immune mechanisms provide a vital defence system for the body.
One of these involves lactoferrin, which is found within the lining of the lungs and other mucus surfaces.

Lactoferrin is produced naturally in the body by immune cells when the body is under threat of infection.

Little has been developed with this ingredient until recently. Lactoferrin is present in substantial quantities in mother's milk and plays an important role in the defence system of infants. It is also present in various body fluids and continues to play an important role in the immune system of adults.

Lactoferrin, in supplement form, is extracted from whey protein which is found in cow’s milk and suitable for those who are lactose intolerant

Your Brain Doesn't Know How & It's Not Your Fault

Your Brain Doesn't Know How & It's Not Your Fault A typical human brain is functioning on low capacity. Although the idea that a normal brain only uses 10% of its capacity is a myth, it is true that most people's brains are not functioning properly. For example, studies show that the brains of many people, when confronted with a problem, will actually switch gears and start working less! Instead of switching to logic and "work mode," the brain switches to patterns of frustration and emotion. Most people have simply not learned to "turn on" these higher cognitive abilities when the time is right. Most people are unfamiliar with the states of intense concentration and laser-like focus that come so easily to the great thinkers of our time. To correct this problem, researchers endeavored to recreate the brainwave patterns of overachieving, successful individuals - the most intelligent 1% of the population. What they found is truly remarkable. By helping

10 basic points of good discipline for child

10 basic points of good discipline for child guidance Children are not born knowing the rules of life. They learn to be good men and women by first learning to be good boys and girls. Expect mistakes, tantrums, pouting, and crying. How you respond is an important part of how they learn. 1.Good discipline is not punishment Discipline and punishment are different. Punishment is supposed to make a person choose not to repeat bad behaviour. By using punishment, especially physical punishment, children learn how the powerful make rules and the weaker must go along with it, or else. They might learn to avoid being honest about mistakes or to divert the blame on to others (“it’s not my fault”). Because young children do not choose to misbehave, they can feel like failures if punished over and over. 2. Good discipline teachesPunishment teaches what is wrong, but does not help a child learn what is right. The goal of discipline is to teach. It teaches self-control and socially acceptable behav

GROCERY LIST : Louise Redden, a poorly dressed lady with a look of defeat on her face, walked into a grocery store. She approached the owner of the store in a most humble manner and asked if he would let her charge a few groceries.She softly explained that her husband was very ill and unable to work, they had seven children and they needed food. John Longhouse, the grocer, scoffed at her and requested that she leave his store at once.Visualizing the family needs, she said: "Please, sir! I will bring you the money just as soon as I can." John told her he could not give her credit, since she did not have a charge account at his store.Standing beside the counter was a customer who overheard the conversation between the two. The customer walked forward and told the grocer that he would stand good for whatever she needed for her family. The grocer said in a very reluctant voice, "Do you have a grocery list?" Louise replied, "Yes sir." "O.K
