All the food we consume provides us with health benefits but most of whatever we consume, helps us benefit towards our beauty as well!

Home remedies to help ease migraines


Every few months or lesser i have been the target of migraine attacks. I can bet on it, as one of the worst kind of sudden pain though most common of all. Normally the other aches ad ailments are called for, but not migraines, they come at a time you are most unaware! I hate the vomiting feeling that comes with it due to the acute unbearable pain. You just cant pop a saradon, aspirin or some other 'headache pill' because you know its not for good, neither for a while as it will get you again, unsuspectingly ;)


Anyway here are some tips, some home remedies to help you relieve yourself from migraines:

1. The first thing would be to try and identify what triggers of the migraines. Something you've eaten, smelled, or maybe excessive stress?? Rem, it need not be that two individuals encounter the same stimulation from the same factor. Anyway, drink lots of water and have meals in the right time Because dehydration and starvation can cause migraine headaches too!

2. Aromatherpay: the use of peppermint, sandalwood, lavender, and eucalyptus dipped on cold water and applied on the affected area, the forehead, is considered one of the best remedies to help ease migraines.

3. Consuming the juice or ginger, ripe grapes, cucumber, etc can help a migraine subside.

4. Cabbage leaves- a few crushed leaves tied into a cloth and left on the head at your convenient time should work to ease the pain.

5. The paste of lemon crusts can also be applied for instant migraine relief. Lemon is the easiest remedy as it can found in our kitchens!

6. Meditation helps to eliminate the daily stress, depression, tiredness, etc.. thus, avoiding a migraine.

Things to avoid that can result in the occurring or worsening of migraines:

1. Smoking, drinking and the consummation of hot spicy food stuffs.

2. Avoid direct contact of the sun. Its brightness can irritate the eyes.

Have you tried healthy cooking with Quorn?

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of goviral. All opinions are 100% mine.





Every time i think about food i either i order a healthy snack or browse through recipes to cook up a delicious healthy dish for my family and myself. Doesn't necessary have to be for main meals but also for mid meals. Coming across the quorn website was quite interesting and i decided to read through and got to know that, back in the 60's our nutritionists predicted the growth of population in the future would lead to the shortage of food and discovered mycoprotein, an ingredient born of an organism amazingly found occurring naturally in the soil in a field in Marlow, Buckinghamshire.

In the 90's mycoprotein was grown on a large scale and thus, the first Quorn product which is a savoury pie was launched out of this discovery. What was predicted, never surfaced and the shortage of food never materialized too. However, benefits of Mycoprotein included good taste, health, convenience and nutritional credentials which have never been more relevant in today's world of growing obesity and chronic health issues. This brand has continued to cover almost 500,000 Quorn meals daily in the UK.

The new Quorn recipe book consists of loads of quick, inspirational and healthy vegetarian recipes to try from. Try it today!

Burn belle fat with the right fat burning foods


Owning tons of belle fat has been one of the biggest dilemmas of men as well as women. I've seen it in my own family and around me so am very concerned. I dont think strenuous bodybuilding alone works or even expensive and useless diet pills, as these methods will unfortunately only land up being a slow killer in your life. Having said that, also just going on a strict diet wont help you lose belle fat so easily either, but psychical activity (exercise strictly included!) and eating the right foods are vital to help you succeed, to whatever extent. Here are some calorie burning foods to help you through your journey.

Low fat and rich in protein foods are natural fat burners.

Egg: contain the vitamin B12 needed to metabolize fat. Eggs yolks can be avoided for cholesterol concerns.

Nuts/Almonds: have the ability to make you fuller for extended periods. This way you eat lesser and maintain your intake of high calories.

Citrus Fruits: The vitamin C in citrus fruits are known to dilute fats present in the body. lemons, limes, oranges, grapes are some citrus fruits.

Olive oil: contain mono saturated fats that help to satiate hunger quicker and keep cholesterol under control as well.

Chilli's: helps in lowering cholesterol levels and speeding up the metabolism rate through a compound known as capsaicin present in hot peppers. Your body has to burn plenty of calories to digest the capsaicin!

Beans: rich in protein and fiber help in toning up the body by replacing saturated fats with fiber.

Soybean: helps to break down fats deposited in the body, and protects fat accumulation in the first place!

Apples: is rich in fiber which limits food intake due to its ability to fill you faster.

Green tea: A low calorie health drink which helps prevent fat absorption by the body and helps to speed metabolism.

Other foods are asparagus, carrots, yams, oatmeal, berries, lean meat, garlic, ginger, pulses, whole grains, Fish, etc...
