Survive summer
Posted By admin | 266 views
Revise your eating habits to prevent food-related diseases in the hot season.
Canned lemonades and sodas do nothing to keep you hydrated during summer. Processed drinks can, in fact, add to your fluid intake. But they also come loaded with calories. Pick up a can only if you can’t get fresh lemonade or are not sure of the quality of water. While the sodas are not recommended, emptying a can is better than staying thirsty and dehydrated.
Eight glasses of water are not enough
During summer, you are bound to feel the burn at some point in the day. To beat this burn, you have to drink a lot of water as sunburns are very dehydrating. That universal advice “drink at least eight glasses of water a day” will not suffice. You have to drink much more than that. So, carry a bottle of water everywhere you go and keep sipping from it. By the time people feel thirsty, they are already dehydrated. Also avoid beverages with alcohol, caffeine or lots of sugar because they will further dehydrate you.
Drinking ice-cold water uses up more calories and helps you lose weight
When you drink ice-cold water, your body uses some extra energy (calories) to raise the liquid’s temperature to the level of body temperature. But this calorie burn is minimal, so minimal that it’s negligible. Let us get the equation straight. To lose just 250g of body weight through this method, you’d have to drink almost 435 glasses of ice cold water. Consuming large quantities of ice-cold water can have serious side effects. It can lower your body temperature abnormally decreasing the efficiency of your digestive system and in extreme cases, lead to anaemia. Drinking far too much water can also lead to hyperhydration, a state of electrolyte imbalance that can affect your brain.
Avoid cut fruits from vendors during summer
Fruits and peeled vegetables kept uncovered are a potential source of infection, but if the vendor’s cart is parked in a clean area and if he cuts the fruit in front of you, this is not a bad snack, says Dr Ashutosh Shukla, head of internal medicine at the Artemis Institute, Gurgaon. And it’s not necessary that food-borne infection comes only from a vendor’s cart.
At home, too, you must take care not to leave food out in the open. If you eat just half a mango, put the other half back in the fridge immediately. And it is best to avoid eating leftover cut fruits unless you finish them off quickly. “Fruit left for long hours after cutting loses essential vitamins. Exposure to sunlight also reduces its nutritional value,” says Chennai-based sports nutritionist Shiny Chandran.
Diet sodas can make you gain weight
Many people see diet soda as a convenient way to cut calories. But hold on, guys! A recent study at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio revealed that diet soda drinkers are more likely to become overweight than those who choose full calorie beverages! Why’s that? Complacency. People who choose diet soda feel that they’ve done enough to cut calories, so they don’t have to watch what they eat.

India’s captain, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, led the accolades that poured out of Gwalior after Sachin Tendulkar became the first batsman to score a double hundred in a one-day international, to lead India to victory over South Africa by 153 runs. But perhaps the most astute observation came from the former Pakistan captain Aamer Sohail, who said: “The biggest reason he gets all these records is because he respects the game tremendously. “We all know how talented and how passionate he is about the game, but it’s incredible that at the age of 36 he is still going on. He played the full 50 overs, ran hard and at no point during this knock did he look like he was going to throw his wicket away.” It is that respect which has sustained Tendulkar’s monumental hunger for batting and which has brought him more than 30,000 runs in international cricket. And it is that hunger, even more than the purity of his technique, his balance and footwork, which is at the heart of the greatest batsman of the modern era. Tendulkar hit an unbeaten 200 as India scored 401 for three before South Africa were bowled out for 248 in 42.5 overs. It was his 46th century in 442 ODIs and he has also scored 47 in 166 Tests, giving him a total of 93 hundreds at the highest levels of the game. Remarkably, 10 of those three-figure scores have come in 34 innings in the past 12 months. It has taken 2,962 ODIs and almost 40 years for the first double-century and it has been scored by a man approaching his 37th birthday who – because of age, injury, unprecedented pressure and high mileage – appeared to be past his best a few years ago. Ricky Ponting, it seemed, had become the best batsman in the world. But now Tendulkar is shining again while Ponting’s career has been in decline for some time. Meanwhile, those people who have stubbornly maintained that Brian Lara was the greatest batsman of the modern age, on the grounds that he played more memorable innings than Tendulkar, are finding their argument increasingly difficult to sustain. Tendulkar has now scored 17,598 runs in ODIs and 13,447 in Tests, outstripping all rivals. He first played Test cricket at 16 but took longer to acclimatise to the one-day game, not scoring a hundred until his 79th match. His strike rate was 136.05, making it the second fastest of his ODI hundreds but the fastest against a top-class team, since his best (138.61) was against Kenya in the 1999 World Cup. He dominated all the South African bowlers, none of whom cost less than a run a ball, while Wayne Parnell went at almost two a ball. He also struck an ODI-record 25 fours. “Even when he’s tired he plays the big shots,” Dhoni said. Jacques Kallis said: “He’s a world-class player and he proved it again today.” The richest praise Tendulkar has ever received probably came from Don Bradman, the greatest batsman of them all, who told his wife that the Indian’s batting style reminded him of his own. Perhaps Bradman, who died nine years agotomorrow, would not have been so astonished by the way Tendulkar’s career has kicked on after faltering a few years ago. Bradman, too, was devastating at the end of his career. In 1946, having not played for eight years, he had two Test innings and scored 421. Then, in his last year, 1948, he scored 1,025 runs in eight Tests at an average of 113. But in Yorkshire they would tell you that Bradman was too easily impressed. Tendulkar became the county’s first overseas signing in 1992 and at the end of the season one member said: “He’s nowt special is he? He only made one hundred all summer.”
