  We human beings are imperfect creatures. We know we’d like to get in better shape, but that " chocolate cookie" looks mighty tasty . We know we have to wake up early, but there’s only one episode left on the Netflix show we’re binging on. We know we should  apply "sunblock" religiously , but we forget to bring the bottle with us to the beach. THAT’S LIFE.  But that doesn’t mean we can’t form some habits and best practices for mitigating the inevitable effects of a life well-lived. Here are some best ways to get rid of Dark Circles: 1.

  1. It's good to go on a detox to cleanse your body of toxins:-   Detox diets, juices and treatments are hugely popular, but the very idea that we can take steps to detox our own bodies is a myth. From a medical point of view, there is no need for anyone to detox their systems, as our bodies are built to get rid of toxins way better than any diet or treatment can. Probably the best way to protect your body’s detoxification process would be to take care of the liver and the kidney, which are the body’s main organs in detoxification. 2. Eating food within 5 seconds of dropping it on the floor is safe:-  yes yes I am talking about 5 min rule. It's the worst when something you really wanted to eat falls on the floor.

Mythbusting tests show that moist foods attract more bacteria than dry foods, but there's no "safe dura...

                                                Don’t be fooled by these health myths. 1. Cracking your fingers cause arthritis :-  When you crack your fingers, you’re pulling your joints apart. This stretch causes an air bubble to form in the fluid, which eventually pops, creating that familiar sound. Cracking your knuckles isn’t necessarily good for you, though. But the habit itself won’t give you arthritis — at least not according to clinical studies. 2. It takes 7 years for gum to digest if you swallow it :-  Nope. Gum is mostly indigestible, but the occasional swallowed piece will pass through your intestines and exit the other side, just like anything else you eat that your body doesn't need and can't digest. 3. Going out with wet hair gets you sick :-  This myth is absolutely absurd. Leaving the house just after a shower isn’t going to make yo...

Laid end to end, an adult’s blood vessels could circle Earth’s equator four times!     Bodies give off a tiny amount of light that’s too weak for the eye to see. You lose about 4kg of skin cells every year!   Your left lung is about 10 percent smaller than your right one.   The lung on the left side of your body is divided into two lobes while the lung on your right side is divided into three. The left lung is also slightly smaller, allowing room for your heart.   The largest muscle in your body is the...
