If you are spending your holiday in Egypt, remember these few points to avoid sickness;
1.Hydration. Hydration. Hydration (3-4 liters per day) and it depends on how much time u spend in the sun.
2.Avoid too much alcohol
3.Avoid staying long periods in our sun because it’s nasty, otherwise u will get severe burns and face swellings up to angioedema
4.hygiene, be friendly, shake hands, but sterilize afterwards after touching any surfaces because not everyone has the same sense of hygiene like you.
5.if u have young toddlers, it’s better for them to swim in the sea than the pool, because they drink pool water and that’s not good. (Stomach issues)
6.our food is delicious and also spicy that u might not be used to, so take it easy with portions and bear in mind our high temperature helps bacteria grow quickly in our foods, so maintain a hot and portion appropriate meals and don’t overdo it.
7.the sea is beautiful but what’s hidden sometimes can harm u, watch ur step, dont go so deep in the water without professional guide.
8.last but not least, if u need medical help, seek a doctor and not pharmacist, because a lot of them are just sellers and are not aware of medications side effects or age appropriate. A real pharmacist will recommend u to see a doctor in case of acute situations that require medical attention.
9.stay safe, avoid risky situations, and enjoy 😉

Research Shows That Pregnancy Fundamentally Changes the Brain

Pregnancy causes a permanent rewiring of neurons due to hormonal changes, specifically estrogen and progesterone.

These hormonal changes ignite parenting instincts and a priority shift, believed to be similar in humans and also mice, potentially enlightening understanding of postpartum mental health and parenting behaviors.

The study showcased that such neurological preparations for parenting begin well before birth, challenging previous assumptions that these behavioral shifts occur around birth time, possibly activated by hormones like oxytocin.

Scientists used miniature devices to record neuron activity in the hypothalamus in mice, and they discovered that estrogen lowered baseline neuronal activity but heightened responsiveness to incoming signals. Progesterone, on the other hand, rewired neuron inputs, escalating synapse formation, and enhancing connectivity to other brain parts.

These changes are known as 'baby brain'. Virgin mice that normally focus on mating show no response to other females' pups. However, mice that experienced pregnancy show robust parental behavior to ensure their pup’s survival.

The brain commences these preparations for the parental role much earlier than birth. When researchers engineered neurons to be insensitive to hormones, mice showed no switch to parental behavior post-birth. This suggests that hormonal changes during late pregnancy are important for becoming a caring parent.
