THE ROLE IF FIBER IN DIGESTION

Fiber is essential for a healthy digestive system. It adds bulk to food, which helps it move smoothly through your gut, preventing constipation and supporting regular bowel movements.

Beyond digestion, fiber plays multiple roles:
1. Helps lower cholesterol levels, reducing the risk of heart disease.
2. Regulates blood sugar levels by slowing the absorption of sugar.
3. Feeds the “good bacteria” in your gut, improving overall gut health and immunity.
4. Keeps you fuller for longer, aiding weight management.

Where to find fiber?
Fill your plate with:
✔️ Beans and lentils
✔️ Fresh fruits and vegetables
✔️ Whole grains like oats, brown rice, and whole wheat bread
✔️ Nuts and seeds

Aim for a balanced diet with enough fiber every day to keep your digestive system healthy and your body energized.

DANGERS OF SKIPPING BREAKFAST 🍳

Breakfast is often called the most important meal of the day-and for good reason. Skipping it can affect your body and mind in ways you may not notice immediately:

• Low focus and concentration – Your brain needs energy to function well. Without breakfast, attention span and memory can drop.
• Fatigue and low energy – Your body has been fasting overnight. Skipping breakfast means running on empty, leaving you tired and sluggish.
• Overeating later in the day – Missing breakfast often leads to increased hunger, which can cause overeating, unhealthy snacking, or cravings for junk food.
• Metabolism slowdown – Eating breakfast jumpstarts your metabolism. Skipping it can slow down calorie burning.
• Mood swings – Low blood sugar can make you irritable, restless, or anxious.

✅ A healthy breakfast can be simple: eggs for protein, oats for slow energy release, or fruits for vitamins and fiber. 🥝🥚🥣

Start your day right-fuel your body, sharpen your mind, and stay energized.

STRESS MANAGEMENT TIPS

🧘 Stress is a natural part of life, but how you manage it makes all the difference. Prolonged stress can affect your heart, immune system, sleep, and even your mood.

✔️ Breathe deeply → Calm your nervous system and lower tension.
✔️ Journal → Release emotions and organize your thoughts.

✔️ Stay active → Exercise boosts endorphins and reduces anxiety.
✔️ Connect with others → Talking with friends, family, or a mentor provides support.
✔️ Practice mindfulness → Meditation or prayer helps keep you grounded.
✔️ Sleep well → Quality rest restores both body and mind.

Remember: Your mental health is just as important as your physical health. Take small steps daily to care for yourself. 🌱

Meet Your Body’s Water Cleaner: The Kidney.

The kidney are two special bean-shaped organs in the body. They’re about the size of your fist and sit just under your ribs, one on each side of your spine.

They clean your blood.
Every day, your kidneys filter your blood to take out extra water, salt, and waste.

This waste becomes urine (p*e), and it leaves your body when you go to the bathroom.

They also help:

•Keep your blood pressure steady

•Make red blood cells

•Keep bones strong

Your kidneys are small, but they’re super smart.

Types of edema

Peripheral edema. This usually affects the legs, feet, and ankles, but it can also happen in the arms. It could be a sign of problems with your circulatory system, lymph nodes, or kidneys.

Pedal edema. This happens when fluid gathers in your feet and lower legs. It’s more common if you’re older or pregnant. It can make it harder to move around in part because you may not have as much feeling in your feet.

Lymphedema. This swelling in the arms and legs is most often caused by damage to your lymph nodes, tissues that help filter germs and waste from your body. The damage may be the result of cancer treatments like surgery and radiation. The cancer itself can also block lymph nodes and lead to fluid buildu
