Aerated drinks are high in sugar and are very addictive. They release dopamine in the brain, making one feel good. However, they do not benefit the body in any way. Instead, they are quite harmful. Here are some reasons for quitting these drinks.


 Exogenous ochronosis, a skin disorder causing blue-black pigmentation, can develop as a significant complication of excessive use of skin-bleaching creams containing hydroquinone.

The interaction of these drinks with calcium is bad, and so drinking lots of diet soda can harm your teeth.


When you consume anything harmful, your kidneys are responsible for flushing it out of your body. Acidic drinks like Diet Coke can be harmful to your kidneys and lead to kidney stones.


Soft drinks contain caffeine and are dehydrating. They flush out water from your body without effectively replacing it.


The caffeine found in your soft drinks can interrupt your sleep and digestion.


While you might enjoy guzzling these drinks, know that they can increase your weight drastically.

Harmful Effects of Aerated Drinks


Reasons Why You Should Replace Sugar With Jaggery


Jaggery is a healthy replacement if you are looking to cut back on sugar. Although they both are obtained from sugarcane juice, they differ in properties and benefits. Here are some reasons you should switch to jaggery.


Jaggery is rich in iron and folate, which helps in the prevention of anaemia.


Jaggery can act as a natural remedy for menstrual problems. The sweetness present in jaggery releases endorphins, which offer relief from cramps, depression, and anxiety.


Minerals present in jaggery, like zinc and selenium, can help prevent cell damage caused by free radicals, thus building stronger immunity.


If you have aches and pain in your joints, jaggery can provide you with much-needed relief. Also, drinking a glass of turmeric milk with jaggery can help strengthen the bones.


It acts as a detox as it helps in cleansing the liver by flushing out toxins from the body.

Here are some reasons to adopt this healty replacement of sugar.

World Food Day: Adopt These Healthy Eating Habits 

World Food Day is celebrated across the globe on October 16. It offers a great opportunity to raise awareness about healthy diets and body needs. Here are some healthy eating habits we should adopt:


Taking too many added sugars has been linked to adverse outcomes such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, and metabolic syndrome. You can replace them with lemonade, unsweetened coffee or tea, and even 100% fruit juice to hydrate yourself.


Less intake of fruits is linked to outcomes like increased risk of certain cancers and heart disease. So instead of caffeine-laden drinks, add fruits to your snacks.


We often hear that breakfast is the most important meal of the day and we should not skip it, because eating breakfast consistently is linked to a greater intake of many nutrients, including folate, calcium, and iron.


Eating too many fried foods is linked to unsavoury health outcomes. Instead, you can try air-fried or baked dishes.

Constipation is a common problem today, and it is generally defined as having less than three bowel movements per week. Here are some foods that one should avoid when suffering from constipation.

Bananas are a conundrum when it comes to constipation foods to avoid, as unripe bananas can cause constipation but ripe bananas can help relieve constipation.


Caffeine consumption can cause dehydration in the body which in turn can worsen constipation.


Eating low-fibre food can worsen constipation and white rice is one of them. The main source of fibre in rice gets removed during its processing.

Hema Malini & Dharmendra's 5 Iconic Movies

Indian cinema's dream girl, Hema Malini, turns 75 today (Oct 16). While she worked with several superstars in her time, her chemistry with her husband Dharmendra was out of this world. Here are some of their most memorable movies.

In Ramesh Sippy's 1975 blockbuster film Sholay, Malini essayed Basanti's role and Dharmendra was paired opposite her as Veeru.


The film was a commercial success, garnering critical acclaim for Malini's performance. Hema Malini played the dual role of the titular identical twin and was cast opposite Dharmendra and Sanjeev Kumar.


Dillagi is a fine example of the sizzling chemistry the two shared onscreen. It revolves around the love story of two teachers, Swarn Kamal (Dharmendra) and Phoolrenu (Malini).


Tum Haseen Main Jawan is notable for being Dharmendra and Hema Malini’s first film together. Their romance is reason enough to watch this masterpiece. It is believed that it was during the shoot of this film that Dharmendra fell in love with Hema.


The action thriller was a remake of the 1975 Japanese thriller, The Bullet Train. In the movie, Dharmendra plays a man who becomes a heartbroken wanderer after he's dumped by Malini, and years later they meet while travelling on the hapless train.


The intensity of air pollution is increasing in Delhi and with winter around the corner the conditions may deteriorate further. Here are a few reasons why air pollution in Delhi gets so bad.


Delhi shares its border with the states of Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh. One of the main reasons for increasing air pollution is stubble burning by the farmers in these states.


Another contributing reason is pollution caused by the traffic menace in Delhi. The Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) and the National Environmental Engineering Research Institute (NEERI) have declared vehicular emissions as a major contributor to Delhi's increasing air pollution.


Delhi falls under one of the major industrial regions of India, i.e. Gurgaon-Delhi-Meerut Industrial Region. The industries that have the potential to affect air quality are chemical, steel, cement, mining, thermal power plants, etc and most of them can be found in this region.

Construction activities in Delhi-NCR are another reason that contributes to the increasing dust and pollution in the air.


Due to stagnant winds in winter, pollutants present in the air get locked and affect weather conditions, resulting in smog.


The flat plan where Delhi sits is circumscribed by the chain of mighty Himalayas and hills that block the movement of air. So, when smoke and dust build up, they immediately suspend and remain hanging in the air.


Here are causes of air pollution in delhi
