Garlic as a Natural Antibiotic



Garlic is used regularly in our food and we use it more for the flavor than anything else. But we seldom sit back and think if there is anything more to garlic than just flavoring meats and bread? And there is a lot. Garlic has many therapeutic properties that can benefit a person. It can alleviate joint pains, lower cholesterol level and cure a variety of bacterial infections.Over the years, garlic has been considered one of the best natural antibiotics. The antibacterial properties of garlic have been the subject of research for quite some time and it is still going on. It has been long proved that under laboratory conditions, it has the ability to kill bacteria. Modern studies have confirmed it and also shown that not only bacteria, but garlic can be effective against viruses and fungi too. Compared to commercial antibiotics, garlic has been found to be more potent as a broad spectrum antibiotic.

Garlic scores over the commercial antibiotics in a very important area and that is in the area of the body growing resistance to a drug. While this is a common problem for most of the antibiotics, garlic stays clear of it. That is why it was used over and over again to treat the same infections in the earlier ages.

But the benefits of such properties will only be available when garlic is taken raw and crushed. It releases Allicin, the chemical behind the antibiotic properties of garlic. If you really want to harvest the benefits, try to take it raw. It has been found that if you cook the garlic then it does not lose any other properties except its antibiotic properties.

To use garlic as an antibiotic it is to be taken internally and if viable, it can be used directly on the infected area. To take it internally one can infuse it in wine, in vinegar or in honey. The last concoction is great as an antibiotic cough syrup.

Garlic taken with carrot juice is also very effective as antibiotic syrup. For external application do not use the garlic juice or paste raw on the skin as it can cause burns. Always dilute it with water and use as a wash.

Apart from fighting infections, garlic, if taken regularly, can actually prevent the infections from occurring as it boosts the immunity system of the body.

A New Solution That Stops Snoring and Lets You Sleep



If you’re like most Americans you probably don’t get eight hours sleep each night.

But, if you also constantly feel exhausted, experience headaches for no obvious reason or have high blood pressure, you could have a more serious problem.

That’s because these can all be the result of snoring—which is, in turn, the most common symptom of a potentially serious health problem—obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

While most people think of snoring as a minor annoyance, research shows it can be hazardous to your health. That’s because for over 18 million Americans it’s related to obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). People who suffer from OSA repeatedly and unknowingly stop breathing during the night due to a complete or partial obstruction of their airway. It occurs when the jaw, throat, and tongue muscles relax, blocking the airway used to breathe. The resulting lack of oxygen can last for a minute or longer, and occur hundreds of times each night.

  1. Thankfully, most people wake when a complete or partial obstruction occurs, but it can leave you feeling completely exhausted. OSA has also been linked to a host of health problems including:
  2. Acid reflux
  3. Frequent nighttime urination
  4. Memory loss
  5. Stroke
  6. Depression
  7. Diabetes
  8. Heart attack

People over 35 are at higher risk.

OSA can be expensive to diagnosis and treat, and is not always covered by insurance. A sleep clinic will require an overnight visit (up to $5,000). Doctors then analyze the data and prescribe one of several treatments. These may require you to wear uncomfortable CPAP devices that force air through your nose and mouth while you sleep to keep your airways open, and may even include painful surgery.

Fortunately, there is now a comfortable, far less costly and invasive treatment option available. A recent case study published by Eastern Virginia Medical School's Division of Sleep Medicine in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine concludes that wearing a simple chinstrap while you sleep can be an effective treatment for OSA.

The chin strap, which is now available from a company called MySnoringSolution, works by supporting the lower jaw and tongue, preventing obstruction of the airway. It’s made from a high-tech, lightweight, and super-comfortable material. Thousands of people have used the MySnoringSolution chinstrap to help relieve their snoring symptoms, and they report better sleeping, and better health overall because of it.



Making people around you happy could be the shortest way to your own happiness! Here are some good reasons why:
-What goes around comes around. This might not be the driving force behind your acts of kindness, but contributing for someone else’s happiness can reflect back at you, too.
-You won’t regret it. Do you remember a time when you’ve felt sorry that you’ve done a good deed? Me neither.
-You’ll feel happier as someone’s face flows with happiness!

So how do we do that? How can we easily brighten someone’s day?

Here are 17 quick and inexpensive solutions for this:

1. Encourage.
Sometimes it’s hard to stay positive when you’re going through tough times. When someone is feeling down, you could always give them a ray of your own sunshine and remind them of the positive sides of their problem. This will certainly help your friend see the light at the end of the tunnel!

2. Hug.
In the right situation it could change someone’s day! Hugging reduces stress and it can brighten your thoughts and mood in a second. Pretty cool for something so simple.

3. Give away a piece of your talent. 
A good drawing or maybe a necklace or bracelet? A present with a touch of individuality won’t go unappreciated for sure.

4. Hold the door open for someone.
Donate a few seconds of your time for a wide smile on someone’s face- now that’s a deal!

5. Bring a cup of tea/coffee. 
Next time you go for a cup of coffee, buy one more for someone from your office/class. It’s an easy way to show that you care.

6. Bring positive energy into the conversation. 
Positive energy is contagious! Throw in something a positive thought during lunch for example and soon most of your lunch mates will do the same. Brighten up the atmosphere!

7. Smile. 
Even if it’s to a stranger on the street- it will either make them smile back or they’ll just feel awkward. At least it’s worth trying if it’s going to brighten up someone’s day.

8. Just listen.
 People feel appreciated when they are listened to and not rudely interrupted.

9. While driving, let someone into your lane. 
This could be someone’s moment of relief during a stressful day.

10. An honest compliment. 
It works best if it’s for something that is close to the other person’s heart. You wouls feel better if someone acknowledges the effort you have made on something, wouldn’t you?

11. Share some of your homemade sweets. 
Who doesn’t like cookies? Or ice cream or jerky?

12. Share something you found on the internet. 
It could be your favorite funny video or something intriguing and helpful.

13. Bring your friends’ favorite takeout food. 
Another version of the tea/coffee favor is buying your mate’s favorite food- chocolate, sandwich, pizza, etc. If you’re a good cook, why not prepare a favorite meal?

14. Pick some flowers for your buddy. 
That’s a pretty easy and joyful way to put a smile on someone’s face.

15. Do a chore or run an errand for someone. 
If you’re having a day off, why not help someone with something small? It’s a good sacrifice and a positive outcome is sure to follow.

16. Tell a joke or a funny story. 
You can turn your mischiefs into a funny story that can make someone laugh.

17. Share a good advice with your mate. 
When there’s a problem you can easily participate in the solution by offering a helpful advice or your own point of view. You can consult with friends that have been in a similar situation. This could really mean a lot for the friend you’re trying to help! Show them that they’re not alone in this.

Autobiography Of Mobile Phone



I am the part and parcel of every one’s life. Children ruthlessly love me, women adore me and men handle me roughly. Can you guess what I am? I am a cell phone. Fancying that your life is incomplete, dull and drab without me you would be interested in knowing about my journey of life.


I am a delicate smart cell phone of a famous make APPLE. Getting through rigorous phases of manufacturing in the factory of a USA I came out shining as sun. My fellow models were of different colors but I felt distinguished to be clad in a glistening black and silver body. The package that carried was equally shining, decent and it rightly went with my prestige. I was shipped to Pakistan. After many days of travelling in dark suffocating container I reached Pakistan. Then I was sent to a mobile showroom. The shopkeeper displayed me on a glass window. People came, adored me and put me back. Nobody was ready to buy me because I was very precious. One a rich man purchased me but he didn't unpack me rather he wrapped me in a beautiful wrapping sheet and presented me as a gift to his beloved wife on her birthday. The lady who was my owner was very nice. She handled me gently and took great care of mine. She always looked at me with a special gleam in her eyes because my sight always reminded her, the unfathomable love of her husband. Sometimes she let her three years old daughter play with me but in her own supervision. She was always very watchful that lest the young child should not cause any harm to me. I felt very uneasy in the hands of baby because she was too young to enjoy any game or any other application of mine. She could only see the pictures in the gallery. On an unfortunate day her one year younger brother approached her when she was molesting me. My owner left her unattended only for few seconds when she went to kitchen to turn the meat stakes in the broiler. He tried to snatch me from her hands. In that maltreatment I got slipped from their hands and fell on the floor. My LED was crashed. Hearing the smash my owner lady rushed screaming. She was baffled seeing my heartrending plight. I was sent to a mobile repair shop my LED was replaced but I lost my original luster. My owner sold me and now I am waiting for a new owner. I am perplexed to think that who my new owner would be!!

LIFE - A Journey....


Some of these challenges will test our courage, strengths, weaknesses, and faith. Along the way, we may stumble upon obstacles that will come between the paths that we are destined to take. In order to follow the right path, we must overcome these obstacles. Sometimes these obstacles are really blessings in disguise, only we don't realize that at the time.

Along our journey we will be confronted with many situations, some will be filled with joy, and some will be filled with heartache. How we react to what we are faced with determines what kind of outcome the rest of our journey through life will be like.

When things don't always go our way, we have two choices in dealing with the situations. We can focus on the fact that things didn't go how we had hoped they would and let life pass us by, or two, we can make the best out of the situation and know that these are only temporary setbacks and find the lessons that are to be learned.

Time stops for no one, and if we allow ourselves to focus on the negative we might miss out on some really amazing things that life has to offer. We can't go back to the past, we can only take the lessons that we have learned and the experiences that we have gained from it and move on. It is because of the heartaches, as well as the hardships, that in the end help to make us a stronger person.

The people that we meet on our journey, are people that we are destined to meet. Everybody comes into our lives for some reason or another and we don't always know their purpose until it is too late. They all play some kind of role. Some may stay for a lifetime; others may only stay for a short while.

You Are What You Want To Be…?

Our minds work just the way we want it to work… we are who we want to be… if our willpower is strong and we decide we won’t indulge ourselves into something we don’t want to, nothing can ever make us do it.. Our willpower and initiative can really move the mountains.
The following story is its biggest example.

King Louis had been taken from his throne and imprisoned. His young son the prince was taken by those who dethroned the king. They thought that in as much as the king’s son was heir to the throne, if they could destroy him morally he would never realize the great and grand destiny that life had bestowed upon him.They took him to a community far away, and there they exposed the lad to every filthy and vile thing that life could offer. They exposed him to foods the richness of which would quickly make him a slave to appetite. They used vile language around him constantly. The exposed him to nude and lusty women. They exposed him to dishonor and distrust. He was surrounded twenty four hours a day by everything that could drag the soul of a man as low as one could slip. For over six months he had his treatment but not once did the young lad buckle under pressure. Finally after intensive temptation, they questioned him. Why had he not submitted himself to these things why had he not partaken? These things would provide pleasure, satisfy his lust, and were desirable; they were all his. The boy said,” I cannot do what you ask for I was born to be a king.”
