Chewing Your Food 40 Times Is The Key To Weight Loss
Scientists say munching food for longer could help you cut flab.
Chewing each mouthful for a longer time significantly lowers the amount of calories you consume during a meal.
Chinese researchers found that volunteers who munched each mouthful forty times ate 12% less food compared to those who munched just fifteen times.
It’s believed chewing food for longer checks over-indulging as the brain gets ample to receive signals from your stomach that it’s full.
Besides, it also apparently reduces the ghrelin levels. Ghrelin is a hormone which stimulates the appetite by either increasing it or reducing it.
Harbin Medical University researchers believe eating slowly may be a simple & effective way of dealing with weight problems.

Shellac would benefit women who find it very difficult to maintain a long lasting manicure. With Shellac there’s no peeling, chipping, or fading and since the “polish” is cured by UV lights rather than air drying, it bonds instantly and is strong.
Besides, this “shield” lets the natural nail to grow, which is a real blessing for women with brittle or weak nails.
In the Shellac manicure, a base coat, 2 color coats & a top coat are applied by a technician.
Shellac comes in a variety of shades – from hot & bright colors, deep darks to natural pales.
