Lose weight fast: the vegetable way


Who don't need a good health and a body of great shape? To remain healthy  our diet should contain fruits and vegetables of all types, more importantly leafy vegetables which are rich source of vitamins and minerals like potassium, iron, calcium and vitamin K,C and E. These leafy and also non leafy vegetables are source of fibre and anti - oxidants, which helps in maintaining a good health.

Weight loss: Vegetables are rich in fibre and have no calories which make them the best food to be taken in a diet plan. They can be taken in the form of salads with some seasonings on them. They also supply vitamins and minerals which helps you maintain good health as well. Green and leafy vegetables play an important role in a diet plan and therefore highly recommended for in weight loss program.

Lower the risks of heart attack:  Fibre in vegetables reduces cholesterol deposition in arteries, since it has a tendency to bind with it and thus helps in removal from the body and reducing the chances of a heart stroke.So higher the intake of the green and leafy vegetables, lower are the chances of getting any cardiovascular disease.

Maintaining blood pressure: It helps in reducing systolic blood pressure thereby reducing the chances of getting high blood pressure.


Maintaining blood sugar level:  Green vegetables are  best for diabetic person, as they are low in starch level and also helps in reducing the blood glucose levels.

Digestive health: As green vegetables are rich source of fibre, it helps in our digestive system as well. Constipation and other tract disorders can be easily prevented by intake of fibre food. 


Other benefits includes - increase in immunity, good vision, glowy skin most importantly a healthier  body and healthy heart.

Imam Siddiqui on Bigboss




47 year old Imam Siddiqui on Bigboss 6 and it seems he is here to play game..

By occupation he is an Image consultanant and a casting Director. He is a fashion model and and a well known talent manager. He is also a Fashion critic.


A wild card entry in Big boss, which presumably seems to be a new way to for gaining TRPs. Violence and cheap publicity stunts and continuously saying 'I am here to play the game' is something for sure, which might have helped Big Boss in gaining some TRPs.

Ban on women in Haji Ali dargah





-->

There is a widespread condemnation on the decision taken by Haji Ali's trustees for not allowing women in dargah. In a secular country like India we are still facing such discriminations!! Let's see what tweeple have to say about this..


Randeep Hooda ‏@RandeepHooda
Haji Ali ban on women is ridiculous and goes against the rather loving and accepting teachings of Sufism. Who holds the authority to do so??

Chetan Bhagat ‏@chetan_bhagat
If you keep indulging religious fanatics in the name of secularism, stuff like Haji Ali ban on women will only rise.

barkha dutt ‏@BDUTT
All Religious orthodoxy has always been tilted against women. Unacceptable that women should be kept out of the Haji AliDargah.

digvijaya singh ‏@digvijaya_28
Not allowing Women to visit Haji Ali is a regressive step. Liberal Muslims must rise to oppose it. Can't allow Talibani thought in India.

Angry Bombay Girl ‏@shadymumbai
All Women Banned from Entering Haji Ali should Refuse to Cook at Home .Problem solved ..in 2 days Haji Ali will be Declared 

Ramesh Srivats ‏@rameshsrivats
At this rate, Haji Ali will soon start looking like IIT- Madras.


Raj ThackerYAY ‏@Raj_ThackerYAY
The 3rd World War will be caused if Haji Ali Juice Center stops allowing women to enter in.

Mihir Fadnavis ‏@mihirfadnavis
All this talk about Haji Ali makes me glad that we are Hindoos. We ban women from entering temples only once a month. High 5!

Naushina Shaikh ‏@NaushinaShaikh
After Haji Ali women can't visit Taj Mahal..after all even that is a grave..


avantika srivastava ‏@avantika_s
Can't understand why Men stop women in Haji Ali and Sabrimala? We are created by God as much as them so why be afraid of us?

Gabbar singh ‏@GabbbarSingh

Haji ali references - contnd - Bluffmaster(romance scene), Aan-men at work, Halla bol,
Bombay movie.
