 But if it’s only money these leaders are after, they’ll self-destruct in no time. Lust for money brings trouble and nothing but trouble. Going down that path, some lose their footing in the faith completely and live to regret it bitterly ever after. (1 Tim 6:9-10 MSG)  Today happen to begin the holy week after palm Sunday yesterday. I just thought it wise to draw a lesson from the Holy Book that relates to what we want to discuss today which is birthed from industrialization, a quest towards making money. Lead is a chemical element with symbol Pb got from it's latin world plumbum. Its atomic number is 82, which belongs to the Metal family on the periodic table. Lead is an important part of industrialization. Product like (in the case of some country they use) leaded paint, leaded gasoline, leaded aviation fuel. Must of the majorly mined lead are used in lead-acid battery for motor vehicles. Some pipes used in delivering waters are made of lead. lead is also used in solderi

Have you noticed when one have issues with ones stomach (gastrointestinal (G.I) issues), one finds it difficult to sleep. They get so common that scientist labelled it: "chicken egg issues". If we may, we could discuss some issues: Hunger:  One common issues which one is likely to experience is hunger and sleep. When one sleeps, the body doesn't sleep, it works to repair the tissues and muscles for the body to do its functions. If we deprive ourselves of sleep, we crave for food. Which result us in taking junk food which result into GI issues. When the brain is not relax, it produces ghrelin (hunger hormones) while a relax mind produces leptin (hunger suppressing hormone). So if one is not sick,It would be helpful to get quality sleep at the right time. When you don't sleep you risk being obese and obese people wakes up from sleep for acid reflux or chest pain. GERD, Heartburn and Sleep: It is also worthy of note that one should avoid sleeping with his right sid

As one ages, one ceases to digest the sugar in milk (Lactose) any longer but diary product has been proven to increase longevity then came another diary product the body can digest called yogurt got by serendipity. It was accidentally discovered by the ancient way of storing milk in hot climate. Yogurt is a turkey word which means to thicken. It is agreed by historian that yogurt was accidentally discovered through the process of storing milking in hot climate because they discovered yogurt from Central Asian herdsmen who store extra goat milk in containers made out of animal stomach while they sojourn. They discovered this milk are still edible after it's being preserved for a long time and it thicken after going through a long time in hot sun. Nevertheless, yogurt are prepared by heating up diary product to 85C (185F). We have other myth that it was consumed by the accent Greek as the food of the gods and noted to increase longevity of life.  The reason was that yogurt contained

Constipation is a very common bowel movement problem. It is not a disease but a symptom in which a person experiences infrequent stools or faces and difficulty in passing them. In general, a person is called constipated if he/she does not have spontaneous (by itself, without medicines) defecation (discharge of feces from the body) i.e less than 3 times a week. Constipation may occur very commonly, but if the problem persists very frequently for several weeks or more it is considered to be chronic. You can get fast relief from constipation with your lifestyle and diet changes that you will learn in this article.

Smoking is an habit that is very difficult to break but yet possess a very damaging effect on the body. It is the major cause of cancer to all part of the body especially the lungs. That is why it’s written on the pack of cigarettes that smokers are liable to die young. Today we want to exploit the hazard one causes to the body when they smoke after meal. Smokers have great urge to smoke after every meal. They says it helps their digestion process, someone told me his balance diet is solid, liquid and gas, meaning without cigarette his digestion process is not complete. But these are believes for smokers to attend to the huge urge of taking cigarette after meal. This is absolutely incorrect. Taking a stick of cigarette after every meal is equivalent to taking 10 sticks of cigarette. This act damages the entire body. Taking cigarette after a meal increases ones chances of contracting bowel and lungs cancer. Nicotine from cigarettes have the ability to bind with the oxygen i

Today is ash Wednesday, it begins the Christian lent where they have to undergo a forty days fast to share in the suffering of what Jesus did on the cross to save mankind. Though they don't fast on Sunday but in their congregation of worship for the period of the lent, the atmosphere of worship depicts mourning. Some congregation don't use the drum when it's time to play music and the music played during that period usually sound sorrowful. Nevertheless, not all Christians observe lent or understands lent. Christianity in my part of the world is divide into four that I can remember, Roman Catholic, Protestant churches, Pentecostal and traditional religious churches. Lent I guess is mainly practice by the Roman Catholic and Protestant Christians. Our concern today is to tell us how this fast can bring natural healing to the body. Fast is a practice used in the old times to heal one-selves but still relevant in our modern day. Medicine helps alleviate the outer symptom of s

                            Fig1: Rod of Asclepius The rod of Asclepius takes its name from a greek God Asclepius who is associated with healing and medical art. Looking closely, you notice most medical organizations uses it as a symbol. It is sometimes confused for caduceus which some medical organisations also use in North America. Fig 2: caduceus The staff all have their greek history but according to philosophy, I learnt the oldest book in the world is the Bible. So whatever mythology associating a fiery snake upon a pole should be a copy cat. In the Bible, referenced Numbers 21:8-9, Moses a servent of God who was tasked with taking the Isrealite out of Egypt the land they were held captive, to their promised land. On their journey, guess God wanted to teach them faith (read Num 21:4ff for details) so they were inflicted by a fiery serpent that claimed the lives of many. They needed a doctor or a clinic or a medicine to save them from the serpent's venom, so Mo
