I have used aloe vera all my life. Besides the uses you mentioned it is antiseptic and a piece can be placed over a wound and it heals without a scar.
-
I must remember that. Thanks for that added information. Personal experience is the best teacher.
-
same here is a very lovely product have try aloe gel from foverever living product
-
-
I used to drink aloe vera juice and it was quite nice.
-
Which brand did you go for. So many brands are floating in the market these days.
-
-
You are so right about the gel being good for minor skins or your skin. In Miami, those plants were everywhere! Lots of people had them in their yards. If the neighbor wanted they would break off a piece and share. The aloe plant is a miracle plant! They are easy to grow as they practically grow themselves. It has lots of medicinal purposes.
-
I have a few pots but sadly I do not use them the way I should. I have a dry scalp. I am now thinking of applying the gel on my scalp before going for my bath.
-
-
I agree with what you said. Aloe Vera is a ONE SOLUTION FOR MANY PROBLEMS.
I have joined a multinational company which manufactures the products like creams, soaps, gels, moisturizers, lotions, tabs for slimming body, powders, ointments for burns, skin products, Hair Oils etc. which are all based on Aloe Vera. They work very effectively.There are many people who are doing a lucrative business and earning good money with the Aloe Vera plantation.
A person who has a land of 1 acre can easily get 1 lakhs per 1 Aloe vera crop.But he should provide necessary water and good manure for getting a good variety of Aloe Vera. If the soil is good like in Andhra region of Andhra Pradesh with good water facility he can reap a crop in a year.
This is the only plant which makes one energetic even when there is loss of blood. I drink Aloe Vera Juice regularly and I recommended this plant for many ailments.
-
I have a few plants in pots but do not make good use of them.
-
-
i use Aloe Vera gel on my eyelashes to keep them long and nourished and it does work—i also use on my scalp as well—good stuff.

I just found out that my HDL is low and my LDL is high but my triglycerides were normal. I know I need to make a change but I just don’t know where to start.
-
If you like wine go for red wine and see the difference. My doctor recommended that i take 190 ml on five days of the week. You can increase your exercise as well among other things that i have written about.
Good wishes are on their way.

yes agree with you.and thank you for sharing useful information ,now a days because of the unhealthy food these kind of problems occurs in our body.

We have so many pleasant choices and yet we choose the wrong path.

I feel bad that I was ignorant about cholesterol. My husband now has a heart condition and I worry if I could have changed our eating habits earlier on and prevented it. The thing is there were no warning signs. He was hardly ever sick. Even though heart disease is in his family, I thought his chances were minimal because he did not have the same bad habits as his father (mainly drinking and smoking). When he was diagnosed, I was completely taken aback. But I’ve since then adjusted and our diet has changed quite a bit. I had to change my diet to make sure he would change his. What are wives for? 🙂 We always look for natural ways to attack health problems.
-
There are so many happy ways to keep our health in check. Nature is kind.

I really wonder whether our old people really followed the tips that are mentioned in the article? No . Definitely ‘No’ is the answer as we all know. But how could they live for 80 and 90 years. What is the secret behind their living for good length of time? There is no answer that can give satisfactory explanation. THE IGNORANCE IS A BLISS THAN HAVING A KNOWLEDGE.
The tips MENTIONED in the Article may be useful for keeping us fit because we do not do physical exercise. There are people who do not walk properly. All bad habits. Besides this we got a fear complex of Diabetes, blood pressure, kidney problem.Unfortunately, the Doctors are having do not having good standard. They know how to refer a patient for a medical tests and get their commission.
I think doing some yoga regularly and nourishing the body with the tips enumerated in the article above will definitely keep one live long.
-
That is what I said in my post. My mother never knew there was such a thing as cholesterol and she lived beyond 90. Now that we know a bit about it, it haunts us.
-
-
Yes, it be cured naturally by everyone at home talking many positive exercises at homes on daily basis. Cholesterol is not a deadly poison, but a substance vital to the cells of all mammals. There are no such things as good or bad cholesterol, but mental stress, physical activity and change of body weight may influence the level of blood cholesterol. A high cholesterol is not dangerous by itself, but may reflect an unhealthy condition, or it may be totally innocent.
I think that In certain aspects low cholesterol is worse than high cholesterol. Already fifteen years ago, American researchers found that low cholesterol predicts an increased risk of dying from diseases of the stomach, the intestines and the lungs.
Children with allergic problems, such as asthma and hay fever, have lower cholesterol than healthy children. As allergic diseases have become more common and is still increasing in the Western world it is tempting to suggest that the cause is the increasing consumption of the polyunsaturated vegetable oils of the omega-6 type, because these oils are known to stimulate inflammatory processes, and allergy is a kind of inflammation.

Once upon a time, I had no idea what to write on my blog. Coming up with blog article titles was slow and painful.
That was 10 years ago.
Now, thousands of articles later, coming up with topics is easy. Not only do I publish articles on my two blogs, but I also publish hundreds of guest posts for dozens of publications.
Wondering what happened along the way that made this process so much easier?
I’m going to pull back the curtain on how I’m able to generate so many topics, and explain what it means to choose great article topics. I think you’ll find it helpful.
Know your target audience.
Let me deal with first things first — the “best possible blogging topics” are the best ones for your audience.
Everything comes down to your audience. In fact, there is nothing more important, essential, and critical to blog success than knowing your audience.
The story of my own blog is a testament to this fact. The longer I write my blog, the better I understand my audience. I read and respond to blog comments. I take time to read emails from my readers. I listen to what they have to say.
Make relevance your guiding light.
I’m going to introduce a concept, and then explain how to do it: Relevancy.
Relevancy is nothing new. It’s popular to talk about relevancy and the need for relevancy in content marketing … but hang on a second.
Find a blog to steal from.
Someone once said, “Good artists copy. Great artists steal.”
If you want to pick absolutely stellar topics, then go to the blogs that are already doing it and pilfer them. Lest you think I’m going nefarious, allow me to explain …
I absolutely oppose anything remotely connected with stealing content or intellectual property. What I do suggest, however, is to identify a blog that is doing it right, and follow their example. Here’s the process:
-
-
-
So the blame is on Google? That makes no sense at all. A writer should know that it can take months if not years for their articles to be de-indexed from Google. Is that Google’s fault? No. That is just how things work. Now a writer can ask Google to de-index their articles earlier but they are not obliged to do so. Why would anyone want to share the same article from one site onto another site? All material should be fresh and new. Even if it is just your blog.
On EliteWriters, for example, if someone claims an article is plagiarized the owner wants to see proof of such claim. The owner will then check to see the links if any is given and go from there. If an article is found to be indexed on another site then it can be deleted without any warning. That is why it’s good to read the rules before a person gets started on any site.
-
When sites do not pay and the account there is deleted those sites where those Blogs are reposted could check. Barring the title the article does not show on the net. That much patience site owners should have.
-
-
The write of this article says right that posts are deleted by saying plagiarism giving no proof of plagiarism to the writer. It is not a good thing for the writer. I give my example, I posted my own written Sonnet and Ode but I was told that is is plagiarism. I request my humble readers that anyone can write my name in Google (jhsayyar) and find mind Urdu and English block on which I have written 463 Sonnets, 53 Odes and couple of hundred articles written on cricket matches prediction and songs how my own poetry may be plagiarism?
-
The writer is the backbone of a writing site and when accusations are hurled documentation is necessary
-
-
The site owners forget that it is the writers that sustains them. And they have to respect writers that they fully deserve.
-
Many sites do have plagiarism checker. Thee is a separate software also. It scans every article and co relates the source of the text of it is plagiarized. I do not know why these social blogging sites are not entertaining them. They need some additional staff also for this job as you said.
But one thing is acceptable that plagiarism is not advisable under any circumstances. If some sites show discrimination in the payment like 1st, 2nd, and 3rd it is left to their own conscience. They definitely one day or the other will be paid in the same coin as happened to Bubnlews. The site is no more now.
-
I think writing sites ought to invest a bit in persons who sometimes randomly check posts for duplicated content apart from checker softwares.
At times, huge volumes of posts or articles can present issues but then keeping users happy should be the topmost priority. -
Excellent post. As indicated, Bub had it’s pets. These pets were the Shills who brought in warm bodies. These pets would race from site to site shouting; “I always got paid!”
Hubpages suffers the kind of ‘pet’ situation in which other ‘writers’ will mark down your work so that it is ‘unfeatured’. This prevents you from earning revenue and allows them to write an almost plagiarised version of your work.
Where writing sites abuse their writers, by not paying, low paying, long moderation periods, the writer will contribute elsewhere, which, of course creates the cycle of decline.

Yes. I do accept that memory loss may be due to many problems like diseases, vitamin deficiency, improper bone growth, improper diet, depression etc.
Nearly 90-92 cases constituting Insomnia, obsessive anger, high blood pressure, memory loss, Alzheimers are due to only depression as per the Massicheutus University study report.Of all the memory 53% people approach a doctor with a complaint of low memory .
The only tool to halt this problem is meditation. The study report says that this is the meditation that has got the power to control depression.
How to do it?
Just take a mantra or a word of any deity of your choice and recite it for 10 times regularly. It will control the brain reaction to the weird problems.Besides this, taking a good food can also work as an effective tool.
Taking Almonds, using herbs like Belladonna, Saraswati Churna etc. will definitely control the memory loss.
-
Thanks for adding more tools. Keeping our mind active to my mind is one of the best ways besides ofcourse eating the right kind of food.
-
-
I know that people who use brain and sharpen it with any activity that includes thinking, observing and memory have their brains not only trained but also maintain mental health longer.
-
Brain exercise like any other is essential to take care of loss of memory
-
-
When we look around and see those who are inflicted with bad memory they are those who never exercise their brain.
-
My kids love to play the card games, they just enjoy it without care about any intention. However, for the aging group, these kid of card games or even Mahjong, which is famous in Chinese group, heard can help them in brain exercise, thus prevent memory loss or Alzheimer’s disease.
However, I believe, physical exercise with sweating, i.e at least 30 minutes per section can help in making our mind fresh and healthy, and enhancing our memory power.
-
i agree with you. There are many more activities that can help retain memory including a proper diet.
-

Hello.Thank you very much its a very useful information you shared with us.Mostly we dont know how to overcome these problems and now a days most of the people i my self has the same problem.I hope your tips will be useful for me.

Sweet Potatoe is very rich in Iron which is very useful for Red Blood cells in the body. It is not a vegetable preferred by Scheduled castes and Scheduled Tribe people. Everybody likes it very much.
The correct method of cooking is to boil it along with Jaggery. Jaggery is also rich in Iron. One works on blood cells and the other improves the flow of blood.
-
I like to eat sweet potato cooked in jaggery and coconut. Sweet potato was considered food of the poor once upon a time.

i love sweet potato even when I was a child, and until now I still eat kamote– I read a book that sweet potato is good for ulcer. There are more than varieties of sweet potato as I see it everyday, that includes the yellow, purple and even the skin have different colors also, it also differs with sizes. There are sweet potato best for its young leaves though most are for it root crop. My favorite is the yellow skin with an orange color, this is the sweetest kind of them.
-
Thank you for reminding me about leaves. I have a few creepers and must remember to cook them.

You heard Oprah Winfrey singing the praises of the sweet potato? I was watching a TV chef cooking contest and the chefs were invited to pick anything from the White House garden and prepare it for the judges. The chefs also met with First Lady Michelle Obama – she’s the reason there is a White House veggie garden – and one of the chefs asked if she had a “favorite” from the garden. Guess what she said? Sweet potato! Not just a fave her but for her whole family. I love sweet potato too!
-
Sweet potatoes are VERY common in the US as a dish to eat, and they are sold on every corner in every grocery store, even way before Oprah said anything about them.
They are a very common dish. People eat sweet potatoes all the time, especially around November for Thanksgiving where there are thousands and thousands of sweet potato pies sold and eaten during this season. Which reminds me, I need to go and get some for myself soon!

Before going on a foreign holiday we all have to go through medical check ups. I was referring to short term irritants that can affect our health due to lack of proper planni
ng. -
yes. A good list giving almost all the required and essential items. Above all health is the first and foremost factor which one should pay attention to before taking up a travel to foreign countries. A healthy person can get along with any kind of situation and can come out successfully. It is here most of the people fail to pay proper attention and they will have all sad memories of their travel experiences.
But, getting a companion of equal tastes, hobbies, and habits is the most important among all. But the chances for getting a good companion are only 2-5%. You can get anything . You can manage anything by saving. But you can not get a good companion. It is always your luck and depends on how you reciprocate with others during a tour. So do not build any expectations regarding this aspect. You have to search for a good friend or companion while you are on the go only.

I love that you wrote this post about seniors. The congregation where I attend worship services has a group that often gets together to do things and stay active. They used to call themselves “The Old Bunch”. Now they call themselves “The Fun Bunch”. 🙂
Wow!! You thought I was in my twenties? That must be the mind you are talking about 😀
Seniors can do great if they look after themselves.
Sorry for extra comments. I meant to also add that I didn’t know you were a senior. For some reason I had in mind that you were in your twenties. 🙂
wow! this is an amazing article. I am extremely happy there is somebody who is taking and talking about seniors who are most often viewed as neglected creatures on the planet Earth.
You have rightly said that keeping oneself busy and preoccupied is always a good way . This makes one busy throughout his day. He will be concentrating on various things. He can take up;
walking
joining in a club
laughing club
reading
writing
moving with friends and occasionally visiting them.
playing with children
doing yoga
and maintaining a good and regular diet
Just recently I read a post. A Turkish Guru is now living a comfortable life. He is aged 95.He looks as 45. The secret behind his health he says that he does Prayer to the Sun early in the morning. and do some difficult yoga postures. Is it not amazing? How can Praying the Sun will give good health?
He says that by doing Yoga he will always have control over his body and the brain has got the power to regenerate the dead cells and active the destroyed muscles even. Totally unbelievable.
nice article…
This is an eye opener for I am also a senior citizen. I have just turned 65 recently. Though I take a maintenance medicine for the stabilization of my blood pressure, I take early morning a brisk walking to keep myself healthy fit. I feel really good. I am not free from stress of supervising my teachers in school, in handling problems created by our school children and their parents as well.
I have no vices whatsoever. I never drink. I never smoke. I am very selective of what I eat. I usually eat leafy vegetables, sparingly eating meat. My wife is a good cook. She knows what is good for me and she always prepares it. My wife and I are already in our senior age. We maintain a better relationship and go to Church together with our grandchildren. We do have time to date at the public plaza, eat outside, play our favorite songs, sing and dance. We do what we are doing when we are teenagers.
Yes, it is a good and informative article that how seniors make their health good in extra time especially in old age. People in my country are living longer than ever before. Many seniors live active and healthy lives. But there’s no getting around one thing: as we age, our bodies and minds change.
There are things you can do to stay healthy and active as you age.It is important to understand what to expect. Some changes may just be part of normal aging, while others may be a warning sign of a medical problem. It is important to know the difference, and to let your healthcare provider know if you have any concerns.
Last night I read that Canadians are enjoying longer life spans and better health than ever before. The proportion of seniors in the Canadian population is expected to double by 2025. Health Canada is proactively conducting research and planning to better understand the needs of Canadian seniors and to ensure that programs and services respond to Canada’s demographic aging.
If old men and seniors tale exercise daily they may save from these diseases as
vCommon chronic conditions include:3
Heart Disease
Cancer
Chronic bronchitis or emphysema
Stroke
Diabetes mellitus
Alzheimer’s disease
