Bulimia*Ravenous Hunger

Eating disorders affect seven girls in every 1,000, and one boy in every 1,000. It usually begins to be a problem in teenage years, but can happen at any time. 

Bulimia, also called Bulimia Nervosa, is a psychological eating disorder. Bulimia is characterized by episodes of binge-eating followed by inappropriate methods of weight control (purging). Inappropriate methods of weight control include vomiting, fasting, enemas, excessive use of laxatives and diuretics, or compulsive exercising. Excessive shape and weight concerns are also characteristics of bulimia. A binge is an episode where an individual eats a much larger amount of food than most people would in a similar situation. Binge eating is not a response to intense hunger. It is usually a response to depression, stress, or self esteem issues. During the binge episode, the individual experiences a loss of control. However, the sense of a loss of control is also followed by a short-lived calmness. The calmness is often followed by self-loathing. The cycle of overeating and purging usually becomes an obsession and is repeated often .

If you are suffering from such symptoms, try to stick to regular mealtimes. If your weight is very low, have extra snacks. Keep a diary of what you eat and your thoughts and feelings, you can use this to see if there are links between how you feel, think and eat. If you failed to control it, visit a psychiatrist.

Show me your tongue and I'll tell you Who you are

Other than that everybody has his own tongue print,your tongue can be used as a tool to diagnose your health.And you can determine it yourself by opening your mouth and looking at your tongue in front of a mirror.
A healthy tongue is found to be red, not too wet, not too dry, smooth, and not too thick or not too thin. 
If the color is pale,then there maybe anemia, poor circulation, lack of vitamins, minerals, and/or protein.
If the whole tongue is red,then you may have fever, generally feeling more hot than cold, sweating easily, thirst, tendency to constipation, irritability, skin problems, excess alcohol or coffee consumption, hives or headaches.
If only the tip of the tongue is red, then you are suffering from emotional stress,insomnia or having a tendency for depression.
If it is yellow,then there’s too much bile in the gallbladder or a liver disorder. 
If it is blue,then there is some defect in the heart.
If it is too thick, it indicates an inflammatory condition.
If it is too thin, it indicates an emotional condition.
If you see the impressions of the teeth along the sides of the tongue, this indicates poor intestinal absorption.
A coating covering the tongue indicates toxins in the stomach, small intestine, or large intestine. If only the back of the tongue is coated, toxins are present in the large intestine or could indicate poor digestion. If the middle of the tongue is coated,then toxins maybe present in the stomach and small intestine.
If there is a thick white coating ,that may indicate viral illness such as cold, fatigue.
If there is a brown coating,then you may have constipation or as a result of excess coffee intake.
If there is a yellow coating and it is usually seen with a red tongue,that may indicate a tendency to be over heated, irritable, angry or stressed. 
If there is a black coating ,then there maybe high fever from dehydration, infectious disease, digestive problems, fungus infection or a long term use of antibiotics.
If the tongue has cracks or lines all over, it indicates chronic colon problems.
If you noticed peeling,that may indicate over indulgence in spicy food, discomfort in upper abdomen such as nausea or maybe because of vitamin B deficiency.
Finally,I hope that you know now how to determine your level of health from just protruding your tongue in front of a mirror and whenever you feel you are worried about how your tongue looks,consult your physician.

Type Of Your Personality is associated with Your Diseases

All diseases are thought to be psychosomatogenic which means that every disease has a resultant affect in the mind/body connection.

Now can we make a connection among stress, personality, and diseases? In other words, which emotional components were likely recognizable before the presenting symptoms of the disease? Although there are as yet no absolute answers, there is considerable research implicating certain personality types, emotional states, and diseases.

For example,researches have established a relationship between personality type and susceptibility to heart disease. People with personality type A seem to be more prone to heart disease, are typically more driven, impatient, energetic and ambitious. In contrast, people with personality type B, seem to take life more slowly, are usually more relaxed and less likely to develop heart disease. 
Psychologists have also now identified type C as a (cancer-prone) personality which may be characterized as someone who responds to stress with depression and a sense of hopelessness. Type C personalities have a tendency to be introverted, respectful, eager to please, conforming and compliant. 

It is also discovered that some emotional states can be interfered with some diseases as :
-Excessive Passivity or Excessive Fear can lead to Cancer
-Over-achievement can lead to Ulcers
-Craving For Love can lead to Obesity
-Emotional Conflicts can lead to Endocrine disorders
-Anger can lead to  Cardiovascular disorders or Asthma
-Depression can lead to Constipation
-Inhibited Hostility can lead to High blood pressure
-Ambitious or Rigid Personality can lead to Migrane

In Short,Take Care & try to improve or fix your personality as much as you can in order to be able to decrease risks of such diseases .

Can I control my dreams?


Dreams are images and thought your subconscious is trying to remember, But the answer is YES .
Here are some steps that may help you,
 
-Buy a small notebook, set it close to your bed and keep a pen nearby to write down what you dreamed about
-Before you go to bed each night, write what you want to dream about in the notebook. Draw pictures, write and draw with lots of detail, remember even the smallest things are important. Don't watch something before you go to bed or you may dream about that!
-Read what you've written as many times as you need to get it in your head
-Lie down, relax, and think hard about what you want to dream about. Think of details, they are important! Don't try too hard, or you'll get a major headache
-Lay in silence and darkness well before you are ready to fall asleep, in this time play out a day dream in your mind and slowly drift off into that
-Close your eyes and look at the images from your dream as they appear in your subconscious. If nothing appears, read your dream again. Imagine the sounds in the background, what you are seeing, feeling, etc
-Think of dialogue and sounds in your dream until you are hearing them in your mind
-Go to sleep with these images and sounds in your head
-When you have a dream get into it and realize you are having a dream, then you can control anything that happens

Finally, I wish you sweet dreams every night :)

Chemistry Of Love


Have you ever wondered why your heart beats increase suddenly till you feel that your heart will jump out of its skeletal cage when your loved one crosses your visual field?That's happened because love has its chemistry that affects all of us and i wanna give you a hint about what actually happens in your body

First of all,the anatomic regions essential for perception and activation of love appear to involve the limbic areas in the brain , and in many ways , love is an unconscious, automatic process
When you are attracted to somebody, a virtual explosion of adrenaline-like neurotransmitters gush forth. Also,dopamine and nor-epinephrine are involved in that chemistry,they are the chemical cousins of amphetamines. Dopamine makes you feel good and nor-epinephrine stimulates the production of adrenaline. It makes your heart race. It was also proved that their high levels are responsible for short-term memory, hyperactivity, sleeplessness and goal-oriented behavior

Those chemicals combine to give us that chemistry. That's why new lovers feel euphoric and energized, and float on air. It is also why new lovers can make love for hours and talk all night for weeks or even years

Finally,I wish you all REAL love <3
