<p>Washington [US], December 6 (ANI): A study published online on Menopause, the journal of The North American Menopause Society (NAMS) found that earlier development of menopause symptoms can be alleviated with sufficient volume and intensity of physical activity. Menopause is the natural suspension, of a woman`s menstrual cycle, which marks the end of fertility. In most cases, women experience menopause by the age of 52, but pelvic or ovarian damage may cause sudden menopause earlier in life.<br />
<br />
Genetics or underlying conditions may also be a reason for an early onset of menopause. The symptoms of Menopause may also arise as a result of radiotherapy to the pelvic field, surgical removal of the ovaries, or systemic chemotherapy. When such procedures occur in pre-menopausal or peri-menopausal women, they often result in sudden and sometimes irreversible menopause that is accompanied by more frequent and severe menopause symptoms. Various cancer-treating endocrine therapies, such as the use of tamoxifen, can also amplify symptoms, especially hot flashes.<br />
<br />
The study involved nearly 300 women to investigate the association between self-reported physical activity and menopause symptoms. In addition, the researchers evaluated whether intervention targeting lifestyle behaviour could improve changes in physical activity levels and menopause symptoms.<br />
<br />
Results suggest that menopause symptoms are less severe in women with medium to high levels of physical activity than in women with low levels of such activity. The intervention, however, was not determined to play a role in increasing physical activity in women being treated for breast, reproductive, or blood cancers.<br />
&nbsp;</p>

<p>Although this was not the first study to examine the association of physical activity with menopause symptoms, it was the first to look specifically at the volume and intensity of physical activity.Severe menopause symptoms, including poor mental well-being, are associated with a sedentary lifestyle and low physical activity, even in women experiencing natural menopause.<br />
<br />
Researchers of the current study additionally found that women being treated for breast cancer, for example, who experience worse menopause symptoms are less likely to engage in health-promoting behaviours. On the basis of study results, researchers suggest that an increased focus on exercise training should be part of the long-term maintenance program for women after cancer treatment.<br />
<br />
The results were published in the article `Physical activity and menopausal symptoms in women who have received menopause-inducing cancer treatments: results from the Women`s Wellness After Cancer Program.`Dr Stephanie Faubion, NAMS medical director said, "This study highlights some of the many known benefits of exercise in women with or without cancer. Although the exercise was not associated with less bothersome hot flashes, findings consistent with prior studies, it may help with other menopause symptoms, including mood and sleep disturbances."&nbsp;</p>

<p>Few days to the year-end festivities and wed all be drowned in festive cheer and great food! The celebrations however are usually accompanied by a lot of wastage. We can be more mindful about our relationship with food by incorporating these small changes into our daily life to reduce food wastage:<br />
<br />
Buy Smart: Stick to your list of needs and avoid impulse buying. Don`t buy in bulk, but make frequent trips to the grocery store instead and coincide it with your jogging schedule or biking time so the trips become fun! This`ll ensure you only buy what you really need.<br />
<br />
Store Smart: Proper storage of foods will help keep them at their peak for longer. Not all foods need refrigeration - Potatoes, tomatoes, garlic, cucumbers and onions should be stored at room temperature. Some fruits and vegetables produce ethylene gas that causes early ripening (or rotting) of foods that are sensitive to ethylene. These should always be stored separately. Foods that produce ethylene gas include bananas, avocados, tomatoes, cantaloupes, peaches, pears, green onions. Store them in separate bags and away from ethylene-sensitive foods like potatoes, apples, leafy greens, berries and peppers to avoid premature spoilage.<br />
<br />
Refrigerate Smart: Stock your fridge using the FIFO method (First in, first out). Place newly bought foods behind older ones. For example when you buy a new carton of berries, place the newer package behind the old one. This helps ensure that older food gets used, not wasted. Also when you`ve kept leftovers in the fridge, keep them in glass containers so you don`t forget about them.<br />
<br />
Smoothie Smart: While the stems, ends and peels of many items may not be appetizing in their whole form, adding them to a smoothie is a way to reap their nutritional benefits. Spinach leaves and stems that turn soggy after just a day or two in the kitchen, can be stored in the freezer and be used to make a super healthy smoothie.<br />
<br />
Upcycle Smart: Get innovative with leftovers and turn them into delicious sandwiches and rolls. Leftover white rice can be turned into delicious tomato rice the next day, or even a fried-rice, and leftover sabzis can be used to make healthy parathas and sandwiches!<br />
<br />
Order Smart: Be mindful of the quantity of food you order at restaurants. When you`re unable to finish, always ask for it to be packed to bring back home. Today there are multiple restaurants that have a special small-plate menu: an initiative that has effectively proven to reduce leftovers.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Dineout Passport, a dining out membership by Dineout, has recently launched a #FeedTheFuture campaign. The initiative aims to raise awareness towards food wastage and encourage the adoption of sustainable practices in restaurant and home kitchens. In order to encourage their users to reduce wastage in their own kitchens, Dineout Passport has launched the "Cook Smart" series - an Instagram TV (IGTV) series featuring chefs from top restaurants in India, who are sharing zero-waste recipes.<br />

Hacks to eat smart and cut down on food wastage

<p>A new study from the University of Eastern Finland shows that obese women have an increased risk of hip fracture earlier than others, well before the age of 70.The study followed 12,715 women for a period of 25 years. The new findings from the Osteoporosis Risk Factor and Prevention (OSTPRE) study were published in Osteoporosis International.<br />
<br />
Launched at the University of Eastern Finland in 1989, the OSTPRE study is a population-based cohort study that recruited all women born in Kuopio Province, Eastern Finland, between 1932 and 1941.In the 25-year follow-up, the researchers analysed the association of body mass index (BMI) at the age of 58 with the risk of early hip fracture up until the age of 70.<br />
<br />
They also analysed the association of body mass index at the age of 70 with the risk of hip fracture later in life, up until the age of 83. The risk of hip fracture was examined in groups of normal-weight, overweight and obese women. Data on hip fractures, mechanisms of injury, and mortality were obtained from national health registers.<br />
<br />
Normal weight was defined as a BMI of 25 or less, overweight as a BMI of 25-29.9, and obesity as a BMI of 30 or over (kg/m2). At baseline, 39.6 per cent of the women were normal-weight, 40 per cent were overweight, and 19.9 per cent were obese.<br />
<br />
A small fraction of the women (n=59, 0.5 per cent ) had a BMI below the normal range, that is, less than 18.5 kg/m2. Ageing was associated with some increase in the BMI: at 70 years of age, 33.4 per cent of the women were normal-weight, 40.9 per cent were overweight and 25.7 per cent were obese.<br />
<br />
As expected, the risk of hip fracture increased with age in all of the groups; however, the risk of early hip fracture increased faster in obese women, and slower in overweight women, than in others. In obese women, the probability of hip fracture was at 1 per cent already at the age of 66.7, while in overweight women the 1 per cent probability was reached 5.1 years later, at the age of 71.<br />
<br />
Obese women had a 2 per cent probability of hip fracture 2.1 years earlier than overweight women, and a 4 per cent probability 1.3 years earlier. The differences between the groups became smaller with ageing. In obese women, hip fracture-related mortality in five years after the incident was approximately 1.5 times higher than in others.<br />
<br />
After around 75 years of age, the risk of hip fracture increased fastest in slender women whose BMI was at the lower end of normal weight. Women at the borderline between normal weight and overweight had the smallest risk all the way until old age.<br />
<br />
The study also included a DXA bone density measurement of the hip and a related follow-up of a sub-sample of 3,136 women. At baseline, obese women had on average the highest bone density, but their bone loss was significantly faster than in others. Indeed, obese women in the lowest bone density tertile at baseline had a particularly high risk of hip fracture.<br />
<br />
Some earlier studies have suggested that obesity could also be a factor that protects against hip fracture. However, the contradictory findings on the association of BMI with hip fracture seem to be dependent on which age group is being studied. Typically, follow-up times have been significantly shorter than those in the OSTPRE study."Based on this study, the risk of early hip fracture occurring before the age of 70 is clearly highest in obese women - and especially in obese women who have a below-average bone density. Later, after around 75 years of age, the risk increases fastest in slender women.<br />
<br />
Ageing women at the borderline between normal weight and overweight seem to have the lowest risk," Senior Researcher Toni Rikkonen from the University of Eastern Finland said.&nbsp;</p>

<p>How can a simple act of extending festive wishes cause a scandal? That too when the festival brings the entire family together? But it did happen over the first commercially printed Christmas card more than 150 years ago.</p>

<p>Wishing our loved ones on Christmas, giving gifts and greeting cards is something that seems absolutely normal. But it wasn't so more than a century ago. Christmas was a festival celebrated with fervour, yes. But the idea of commercially printing Christmas greeting cards wasn't as widespread.</p>

<p>And incidentally, the very first such card created a controversy, so much so that a Christmas card could not be printed three years after that.</p>

<p>This card was printed in England. It was designed by Henry Cole and illustrated by John Callcott Horsley. It was printed in 1843, the same year 'A Christmas Carol' was published by Charles Dickens.</p>

<p>Just 1000 of these cards were printed. The card prominently featured a picture of a family happily celebrating Christmas. Puritans of the era were angry at the card.</p>

<p>Surely a family celebrating Christmas can't make anyone angry right?</p>

<p>Well, the reason for puritans' anger was in the picture itself. The picture depicted a young girl in the family playfully sipping wine from her parent's glass. If you take a look at the picture the girl is quite&nbsp;visible.</p>

<p>Although the depiction is enough to give an impression of innocence, the Christmas card angered the traditional set of the society. So much was the anger that such a card could not be printed for next three years.</p>

<p>What do you think? Was the anger justified?</p>

<p>Being emotionally flexible is one of the key factors when it comes to longevity and overall health of your romantic and long-term relationships, say researchers.<br />
<br />
The researchers from University of Rochester aimed to clarify how mindful flexibility the one hand and inattentive, mindless and rigid inflexibility on the other were linked to the dynamics within families and romantic relationships.<br />
<br />
Psychological flexibility is defined as a set of skills that people use when they`re presented with difficult or challenging thoughts, feelings, emotions or experiences.<br />
<br />
Psychologists consider the rigid and inflexible responses to difficult or challenging experiences dysfunctional, ultimately contributing to and exacerbating a person`s psychopathology.<br />
<br />
The psychological flexibility and inflexibility may play key roles in both couples and families in shaping how individuals interact with the people closest to them, the researchers wrote in a meta-analysis, published in the&nbsp;Journal of Contextual Behavioral Science, which statistically combined the results of 174 separate studies.<br />
<br />
"Put simply, this meta-analysis underscores that being mindful and emotionally flexible in tough and challenging situations not only improves the lives of individuals, it might also strengthen and enrich their close relationships," said study co-author&nbsp;Ronald Rogge, an associate professor of psychology.<br />
<br />
The meta-analysis added to the findings of&nbsp;Rogge`s earlier work&nbsp;in which, he and a team tested the effects of couples` watching movies together and talking about the films afterward.<br />
<br />
That study found that an inexpensive, fun, and relatively simple watch-and-talk approach can be just as effective as other more intensive therapist-led methods ? more than halving the divorce or separation rate from 24 to 11 per cent after the first three years of marriage.<br />
<br />
"The results suggest that husbands and wives have a pretty good sense of what they might be doing right and wrong in their relationships," Rogge said about the earlier study.<br />
<br />
"You might not need to teach them a whole lot of skills to cut the divorce rate. You might just need to get them to think about how they are currently behaving. And for five movies to give us a benefit over three years ? that is awesome."<br />
<br />
Watching and discussing movies with your partner that feature onscreen couples can have a positive effect on your relationship.<br />
