Lip Care 101: 7 Tips to Achieve Soft, Luscious Lips

Exfoliate Regularly: Gentle exfoliation removes dead skin cells and helps keep your lips smooth. Use a lip scrub or a DIY mixture of sugar and honey to exfoliate once or twice a week.


Stay Hydrated: Proper hydration is key to soft lips. Drink plenty of water throughout the day to prevent dehydration, which can lead to dry and chapped lips.

Use Lip Balm: Invest in a high-quality lip balm with moisturising ingredients like shea butter, beeswax, or coconut oil. Apply it throughout the day, especially before bedtime.



Protect from the Sun: Lips are susceptible to sunburn and UV damage. Apply a lip balm with SPF or use lipstick with sun protection to shield your lips from harmful rays.



Avoid Licking Your Lips: Saliva can actually dry out your lips, so resist the urge to lick them when they feel dry. It can exacerbate the problem.



Balanced Diet: Eating a diet rich in vitamins and nutrients, especially vitamin E and Omega-3 fatty acids, can contribute to healthier lips. Consider incorporating foods like avocados, nuts, and leafy greens into your meals.



Nighttime Care: Apply a thick, hydrating lip balm before going to bed to provide overnight nourishment and repair. You'll wake up to softer lips in the morning.

6 Worst Food Combinations, as per Ayurveda 

The digestion process comprises assimilation, absorption, and elimination. It transforms food into energy, provides nourishment, and works as a support system for the body. As per Ayurveda, ‘Agni’ governs the digestion process and if it gets disturbed, there is imbalance in energies that leads to diseases. 

Milk is a heavy and dense food that takes longer to digest, while fruits are light and easy to digest. When consumed together, the milk can curdle in the stomach, leading to the formation of toxins. 

Meat is a heavy food that takes longer to digest, while dairy is also heavy and dense. When consumed together, they can overload the digestive system, leading to gastric issues. 

Beans are healthy but make a wrong combination with eggs, milk, fish, fruits, yogurt, and meat. Beans are heavy and dense food that take longer to digest, and consuming it with items like cheese can overload the digestive system. 

Two proteins should be very carefully combined in food, since each takes its own time to digest. Milk and fish both have proteins, and combining them can lead to formation of ‘aama’, or undigested food particles in the body. 

Similar to milk and fruit, consuming yogurt and fruit together can also lead to digestive problems. Yogurt is a sour food that can curdle the sweet fruit, leading to the formation of toxins. 

Honey is a sweet food that is heavy and dense, while hot water is light and easy to digest. When consumed together, it can lead to digestive problems. It is best to consume honey with room temperature water or in foods like tea or oatmeal.

6 Amazing Health Benefits of Running Daily 

Running is an affordable and easy way to stay healthy and fit. All you require is a nice pair of running shoes and you are good to go. Here are some amazing health benefits of running if you make it part of your lifestyle: 

Cardio exercises, such as running, trigger release of endorphins in your body. These react with brain receptors and alleviate pain or stress while creating a feeling of happiness. 

Running makes you take deep breaths exercising the lungs, and boosts your heart rate. It helps use oxygen more efficiently and assists in reducing the heart rate when you are resting, which is a sign of good health. 

Running increases your core body temperature and prompts it to start shedding extra body fat. The more consistently you run, the more calories you burn. 

As an aerobic exercise, running reduces stress, improves heart health and helps you avert depression. Just running for 30 minutes on the treadmill or outside can boost your mood. 

Running every day helps your body build lean muscles, so you get leaner and fitter over time. Running regularly also has a positive impact on knees and other joints, it improves the strengthening of these joints. 

Running also helps prevent premature ageing of all tissues, according to a study published in 2011 in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

According to several studies, soy-rich diets have the potential to reduce LDL (bad) cholesterol and increase HDL (good) cholesterol levels.

Soy isoflavones help to reduce inflammation in blood vessels and improve their elasticity. Both of these factors are vital for healthy heart health.

Soy isoflavones are also called plant estrogens or phytoestrogens because they can bind estrogen receptors in the body. During menopause, a woman’s estrogen levels decrease which results in fatigue, hot flashes, and vaginal dryness. Soy isoflavones reduce severity of these symptoms.

Women experience low estrogen levels during menopause which causes calcium reduction in bones making them weak and brittle bones. Regular intake of soy helps to reduce bone loss and improves bone health.


Studies say that soy helps to reduce blood sugar, especially in menopausal women. However, high-quality research is needed to bolster the link between soy and blood sugar reduction.
