No time for exercise!!!! Dont worry !!!!

Posted by Sree on February 12, 2008

According to the new studies by National Health Service (NHS), Sexercise can lover the risk of heart attack and helps you to live longer!!!

Endorphins released during orgasm stimulate immune system cells, which also helps target illnesses like cancer, as well as wrinkles, it states.

NHS Direct, however, told that this was “backed by science and clinical evidence” and “isn’t just a bit of fun”.

The advice, published under the headline “Get more than zeds in bed”, is one of several sexual health-related articles to be found on the NHS Direct website.

Sex with a little energy and imagination provides a workout worthy of an athlete, the article says. “Forget about jogging round the block or struggling with sit-ups.

“Sex uses every muscle group, gets the heart and lungs working hard, and burns about 300 calories an hour.”

The advice suggests “regular romps this winter” could lead to a better body and a younger look.

Increased production of endorphins “will make your hair shine and your skin smooth,” it adds.

“If you’re worried about wrinkles - orgasms even help prevent frown lines from deepening.”

The article goes on to say that orgasms release “painkillers” into the bloodstream, which helping keep mild illnesses like colds and aches and pains at bay.

The production of extra oestrogen and testosterone hormones will keep your bones and muscles healthy, leaving you feeling fabulous inside and out”.

so wanna feel young .. you know what to do now :-)

Two licensed marijuana dispensaries in the west coast city have unveiled 24-hour medical marijuana vending machines, this week. The machines have been installed by the Herbal Nutrition Centre in Los Angeles to help people explore little known medicinal uses of the drug.

Filled with small sachets stuffed with glistening buds of different sizes and strains, the machines will dispense marijuana in packets of 7g or 3.5g.

However, the access to the machines is strictly controlled by round the clock security guards.

Marijuana machines will offer six different types of marijuana, used to treat a wide range of medical conditions. Users can buy some 28g of marijuana a month.

Innovation = Japan

Posted by Sree on February 8, 2008

Is there any difference between Japan and other part of the world in terms of brain?

They are already in a different age when it comes to innovation. The latest one from Japan is paper planes.

Ya..the same old ones which we used to play once we were kids. The difference is, they want to launch them from the International Space Station to glide back to earth!!!!!!!

So far the planes have resisted wind speeds of up to Mach 7, seven times the speed of sound. They have also endured temperatures of around 300 degrees Celsius. 

As 70% of the earth’s surface is water, the team who works for this estimates that a plane thrown from the space station would have only a 4-5% chance of hitting land. So they want an astronaut to release around 100 planes.

The International Space Station is 400km above the earth’s surface, and a successful flight would be the longest flight ever by a paper plane. The team hopes that in future they might be able to develop a tracking device that can be fixed to the plane.

But in the meantime there is just a low-tech alternative - to write messages in various languages on the paper asking people to send it back to Japan if they find it!!!!!

So next time when you hit by a paper plane… check it … It might be from Space!!!!

Its time for a vaccination .. Lets do a tattoo !!!!

Posted by Sree on February 7, 2008

This is a good news for those who wants tattoo and still searching for a reason.

The latest research from germany (i love their engineering … ) says that tattoos could be the ideal way of delivering vaccines into the body. The reason is tattooing is more effective in provoking a response from the immune system.

By this way tattoos could be a useful way of delivering therapeutic vaccines in humans, including for some cancers.Such vaccines have often failed to produce the expected immune response when delivered using an injection.

one of the researchers behind this work, says that the greater damage to the body caused by the tattoo needle may explain the better immune response.

Lets wait and watch !!!
