is it safe for knees to use manuall trademill ?

Asked by Sonii in Fitness at 9:39 AM on November 05, 2008

Meera Jadhav's Answer

Hi Sonii, the manual treadmill sidetracks from those usual mechanized exercising devices, because here you exert the force to run it. If the action is correct and if you are well geared with proper sports shoes then it shall not harm your knee or ankle joint.

for fitness, what type of breakfast,food i eat pl. tell.

Asked by Dinesh in Fitness at 4:17 PM on October 31, 2008

Meera Jadhav's Answer

Hi Dinesh, high-carbohydrate and high protein foods are the best break fast options: e.g., eggs, dry fruits, bread, cereals, fruit, pasta, broken wheat, etc. Here are just a few quick and healthy breakfast options.

Quick and Healthy Breakfast Options: Fruit, Yogurt, and Granola

If you want a breakfast that is quick and healthy, this is the perfect option. With this meal, you'll get calcium, protein, fiber, and vitamins. If you want things to be really quick, grab a bag of sliced apples at the grocery store, cups of fat free vanilla yogurt, and some healthy granola bars. Take these items to work along with a bowl and spoon. Crush the granola bars or use them for dipping.

Quick and Healthy Breakfast Options: Microwavable Sandwiches

At one point, microwavable sandwiches were quick, but far from healthy. Now, you can actually buy microwavable sandwiches that are quick as well as healthy. For example, Jimmy Dean D-Lights are made with egg whites, wheat muffins, and low fat meat.

Quick and Healthy Breakfast Options: Smoothies

Smoothies are quick and as healthy as you want to make them. You can add fresh or frozen fruit, fat free vanilla yogurt, a splash of juice, and some ice to make a tasty combination. But, you can also add powdered supplements to make your smoothie even healthier.

Quick and Healthy Breakfast Options: Fruit Salad

Fruit salad is a great option because you can make it the night before and then just grab it on your way out the door. This is also a breakfast that can be made year round. Just choose fruits that are in season and combine them with a little Splenda.

Quick and Healthy Breakfast Options: Microwavable Omelets

Microwavable omelets are another breakfast option that is quick and healthy. You can find them in your freezer section or you can even make omelets and boil them while you get ready for work. You can find some great recipes online.

Quick and Healthy Breakfast Options: Toast Sandwich

Chicken is not the evil breakfast meat that most people make it out to be. A serving of chicken is perfectly acceptable. If you want something really quick, just buy microwavable chicken or chop veggies. Then all you have to do is microwave it while your whole wheat toast is cooking. Then just combine the two and head out the door.

In boiled eggs in outer cover white & inside portion yellow, what protin & fat contain ?

Asked by aditya in Fitness at 10:00 PM on November 04, 2008

Meera Jadhav's Answer

Hi Aditya, eggs are an important source of protein, essential vitamins and minerals and can make a significant contribution to a healthy diet.

Eggs are an excellent source of protein. Egg protein is of high biological value as it contains all the essential amino acids needed by the human body. Eggs therefore complement other food proteins of lower biological value by providing the amino acids that are in short supply in those foods. 12.5% of the weight of the egg is protein and it is found in both the yolk and the albumen. Although protein is more concentrated around the yolk, there is in fact more protein in the albumen.
11.2% of the egg content is fat. The fat of an egg is found almost entirely in the yolk; there is less than 0.05% in the albumen.

Approximately 17% of an egg’s fatty acids are polyunsaturated, 44% monounsaturated and only 32% saturated.

What are the optimum hours of sleep for good health?

Asked by HSKHARBANDA in Fitness at 8:36 AM on November 04, 2008

Meera Jadhav's Answer

Hi, for our nervous systems to work properly, sleep is needed. One must sleep for 6 to 8 hours at night. Sleep deprivation makes a person drowsy and unable to concentrate the next day. It also leads to impairment of memory and physical performance and reduced ability to carry out mathematical calculations. If sleep deprivation continues, hallucinations and mood swings may develop.

I Am 21 year 10 month's 3 to 4 day's old. I have a height of 5'3"...,, Is there any possibility to increase my height at this age and how if it possible?

Asked by Sunil Sagar in Personal Health at 11:30 PM on November 03, 2008

Meera Jadhav's Answer

Hi sunil, it is difficult to gain height at this age. Height is genetically predetermined. Boys gain maximum height till the age of 21 only. If you are above 21 years of age then it will be difficult to gain height. You may try doing pull ups, and some stretching exercises. These may help you to add on few inches. Also eat a protein and vitamin rich diet including green leafy vegetables, carrots, soybean, mango, dried apricots, whole grain cereals, sprouts, lentils, yeast, wheat germ, milk, yogurt and buttermilk in the daily diet. If you are non-vegetarian then include eggs, chicken and fish in the diet.

please give some pain less wait loss tips.

Asked by chandan in Fitness at 8:00 PM on October 30, 2008

Meera Jadhav's Answer

Hi Chandan, weight loss could be painless if you are determined and have a strong will power. I would suggest do not hurry up with your weight loss results. Quick weight loss are not long lasting and neither they are safe. In order to reduce excess weight, you need to eat fewer calories and also burn extra calories through an exercises schedule. Healthy diet and exercise is the best way to reduce excess weight. Giving you some tips to reduce excess weight:
1. Do aerobic exercises (walking/cycling/swimming) to burn extra calories and a weight training workout to help tighten and strengthen the muscles.
2. Do brisk walking, cycling or swimming for 30- 45 minutes thrice a week.
3. Perform weight training exercises on alternate days.
4. Eat low fat, low calorie diet.
5. Include variety of low fat foods in the diet.
6. Include green leafy veggies, fruits, salads, nuts, low fat milk, and low fat paneer.
7. Avoid oily, fatty, junk and processed foods.
8. Drink plenty of water.
Remember losing 2 to 3 kgs per month is advisable and it’s healthy too!

how can we remove dark spots on our face??

Asked by Chandu Racer in Fitness at 6:47 PM on October 29, 2008

Meera Jadhav's Answer

Hi Chandu, What exactly are these black spots on your face? If you do not know what is causing them, you should visit your doctor, as you will need to find out what is causing them in order to stop their development and possibly get rid of the ones that have already developed.

If the black spots you refer to are scars that have been left by pimples or some other infection, then unfortunately there is nothing much that you can do to get rid of them. Scars are extremely difficult, if not impossible, to get rid of completely. There is no known treatment to get rid of scars apart from surgery, which of course is needed only for severe scars. At the most, your scars will slowly fade over time, so you will just need to be patient. There is however no harm in trying some home remedies — vitamin E oil and aloe vera gel are helpful in treating most skin problems, so they help the scars to fade more quickly. In addition, avoid using any harsh products on your skin, as they will damage your skin further and slow the healing process. If you are still suffering from pimples, you should avoid scratching or plucking them, as this will cause infection and more black spots.
