Malaria is a mosquito-borne disease that kills hundreds of thousands of people, mainly children, every year. Malaria's symptoms are caused by parasites and not mosquitoes. Malaria is transmitted when infected mosquitoes bite and inject malaria parasites into their human victim.
Here are some preventive measures you can take to control malaria and stop it from spreading further.
1. Wear full sleeve protective clothing.
2. Spray mosquito repellents.
3. Use a mosquito net at night as mosquitoes get active during the night and pose a higher risk.

5. As soon as you find any possible signs of malaria, consult your doctor immediately.

Blazing heat and energy-sapping humidity can spell doom on your health in summer. So make sure you are correctly armed with a nutritious diet to fight off summer meltdown!
Include water-rich fruits in your diet. One of our seasonal favourites is Watermelon. Being a rich source of Vitamin A, it is good for your eyes and immunity. In addition, citrulline plays an important role in the synthesis of nitric oxide, which helps lower blood pressure by relaxing the blood vessels. Potassium aids in crucial heart functions, improves muscle work, and strengthens bones.
Make a salad with fresh sprouts or nuts, or juice it up with a pinch of rock salt; Watermelon can energise you right away with a dash of much needed freshness anytime of the day.

12/04/2022


Heavy consumption of fat and sugar, sedentary lifestyle, obesity, and certain genetic disorders cause gallstone problems. Gallstones vary in size from a few millimeters to 4cms or more. Gallstones that aren't in the gallbladder may travel through the bile ducts to the ducts in your pancreas and your small intestine. This can cause pain near your liver on the right side, upper-middle abdomen pain, or back pain with nausea and vomiting. So, how do you treat gallstones? Is it possible to treat Gallbladder Stones without surgery?

A gallbladder cleanse can help you dissolve and eliminate gallstones.

Milk thistle is very popular in the alternative medicine community. It is believed to have wide-ranging powers to support gall bladder health and manage gallstone attacks, liver disease, and high cholesterol.

While yoga may help relieve some of the symptoms associated with gallstones, there is no scientific evidence to support the use of yoga to treat gallstones. However, some claim that it is possible to use yoga to pass gallstones naturally.

Artichoke is beneficial in stimulating bile, which can help eliminate gallstones in many cases.

Acupuncture may help relieve some of the pain from gallstones by reducing spasms, easing bile flow, and restoring proper function.
Although there's little research on the efficacy of natural treatments for gallstones, it may be worth discussing with your doctor about any natural remedies you might want to try first. But if surgery is necessary, it is advised not to delay it.
