 현대 사람들은 의자 생활에 익숙해졌습니다. 집안이나 직장, 학교 그리고 여러 교통 수단에서도 주로 앉거나 눕는 자세를 유지하며 많은 시간을 보냅니다. 이런 긴 세월 동안 의자를 사용하는 것은 혈당 조절 및 심혈관계 건강에도 좋지 않습니다. 그렇다면 어떤 방법으로 이러한 의자의 위험성부터 줄일 수 있을까요? 요즘에는 당뇨병이 있는 사람들이 일주일에 적어도 150분간 운동한다면 사망률이 감소한다는 연구 결과들이 발표되고 있습니다.
 
 
 
 
 오늘의 당뇨 뉴스レター를 간략히 정리하면 다음과 같습니다: 1) 새로운 혈당 조절 방법에 대한 연구 결과; 2) 일상 생활에서 실천할 수 있는 건강 관리 팁.
 
 
 1. 장시간 앉아 있는 생활을 하더라도 주당 150분의 운동은 사망률을 줄일 수 있습니다.
 
 
 2. 하루하루 조금씩 걸을 수 있도록 노력하거나 주말에는 빼곡히 운동해 보세요!
 
 
 
 
 
 긴 좌석 시간 후에도 운동을 하면 사망 위험이 감소합니다.
 
 
 
 컬럼비아대학교의 미국 연구진은 2007년부터 2018년까지 국민건강영양조사를 이용하여 성인당뇨병환자 6,335명을 대상으로 평균적으로 5.9년 동안 지속적인 모니터링을 실시했습니다. 조사에 참가한 사람들 중에서 34%는 이미 당뇨병 진단 후 10년 이상 경과했으며, 다른 사람들은 그보다 짧게 걸린 경우였습니다. 모든 참가자는 일반적으로 어떤 활동을 하는지와 몸을 움직이는 빈도를 스스로 보고하게 되었습니다. 앉아 있는 시간은 하루에 ▲8시간 초과 ▲6-8시간 미만 ▲4-6시간 미만 ▲4시간 미만 이렇게 구분되었습니다. 그리고 운동량 또한 비슷하게 ▲불활성(주당 10분 미만) ▲운동부족(주당 150분 미만) ▲ hoạt 적(주당 150분 이상)로 분류되어 진행되었습니다.
 
 
 추적 관찰 기간 동안, 모든 원인으로 인한 사망자는 1278명, 심장질환으로 인한 사망자는 354명이었습니다. 분석 결과, 평소 앉아있는 시간과 관계없이 주당 150분 이상 중등도 강도 이상으로 운동하면 모든 원인에 의한 사망 위험이 낮아졌습니다.
 
 
 
 운동 실천 팁
 
 
 
 주당 150분의 운동은 대한당뇨병학회, 미국당뇨병협회(ADA), 세계보건기구(WHO) 같은 보건 전문 기관에서 연구 결과에 근거해 추천하는 양입니다. 중등도 강도라는 것은 약간의 땀이 나며 호흡이 가쁘게 되는 수준으로 활동한다는 의미입니다. 만약 운동 세기가 이보다 더 높다면, 운동 시간을 짧게 하여 주당 총 75분 동안 수행할 수도 있습니다.
 
 
 실제 어떻게 해야 하는지 알아봅시다. 가톨릭대학교 성바오로병원(구 성VINCENT)의 내분비내과 전문가인 이재성 교수가 참여하여, 우리에게 가장 쉬운 방법 중 하나인 걷기를 통해 적절한 운동량을 추정하도록 돕습니다. 매일 꾸준하게 일주일에 다섯 번, 한번 당 삼십 분 동안 또는 일주일에 세 번, 한 번은 오십 분 동안 조용하지만 친구들과 이야기할 만큼 충분히 빠르게 걸어야 합니다. 평균적으로 어린이는 여덟деся번이나 팔백 센티미터 정도이며, 이를 고려하면 우리는 열 분간에 천걸음을 맞추며, 시속 사점팔킬로미터의 속도로 진행하는 것입니다. 달리면서 움직인다면 이보다 더 빠른 속도로 나아가는 것이 좋습니다. 이재성 교수님께서 말씀하신 바에 따르면 "현재 건강상태나 신체능력을 기반으로 가능하다면 하루에 마ilog단계 이상, 최소한 만 단계까지 걷도록 노력한다면 그 결과는 혈당수치 낮춤 및 체중감소라는 큰 진전을 이루게 될 것"이라고 설명하셨습니다.
 
 
 
 주말에 몰아서 해도 될까?
 
 
 
 평소 운동할 시간이 부족하다면 주말이나 여유가 생기는 때라도 꾸준히 운동해보세요. 매일운동하기 어려워도 가능하면 자주 하는 것이 좋지만, 일정하게 쉬면서 몇 번에 나눠서 해도 유사한 효능을 기대할 수 있어요. 이 사실은 미국의 하버드대학교 연구진이 5년 동안 약 8만 9천 명의 성인들을 대상으로 조사를 진행하면서 확인되었습니다. 참가자들의 34%는 전혀 운동을 하지 않은 반면, 66%는 주당 최소 2시간 30분 이상 활발하게 체육활동을 했어요. 이러한 사람들 사이에서는 특히나 주말에 집중적으로 운동하거나 매일 규칙적으로 하는 두 가지로 구별되었답니다.
 
 
 따라서, 주말에만 운동하는 그룹은 그렇지 않은 그룹보다 심장 세동, 심근 경색, 심부전, 그리고 뇌졸중 같은 질병들의 발생 확률이 21~38% 줄었어요. 하루에도 꾸준히 운동하는 사람들은 운동하지 않는 사람들 대비 동일한 질병들로 인해 걸릴 가능성이 17~36% 적게 나타났죠. 이런 결과를 보면 일주일 내내 운동하거나 주말에 한 번에 몰아서 하는 것 사이에는 건강상의 이점 면에서 크게 다르지 않았다고 볼 수 있습니다.
 
 
 
 자리에서 틈틈이 일어나세요
 
 
 
 좌식 생활을 하는데 매 30분에서 한 시간마다 일어나서 스트레칭이나 간단히 움직이는 것을 추천합니다. 만약 운동 시간이 부족하다면 이렇게 해보세요. 윤재승 교수가 "쉬운 활동조차도 계속 앉아 있는 습관의 문제점들을 완화시킬 수 있음을 보여주는 많은 연구들이 있습니다"라고 언급하며, 이러한 행동을 돕기 위한 기기를 활용하는 것도 좋은 방법이라고 강조했습니다.
 
 
 다른 활동으로는 일상에서 쉽게 수행 가능한 경량 체육 activities를 계속해서 하는 것이 중요합니다. 예를 들어 사무실이나 집 안 치우기를 하고, 서있는 작업을 유지하거나 혹은 간단한 주방 일을 해보세요. 이런 것들은 모두 좋은 시작점이 될 수 있습니다. 윤 교수님께서 바쁜 스케줄 때문에 특별히 time slot 을 마련해 운동하기 힘든 당뇨병 환자를 위해 제시하신 몇 가지 방법 중에는 출근 및 퇴근 시 걸어서 이동하고, 그리고 계단 이용하기가 포함되어 있습니다. 특히 계단 올라가는 것은 심장 건강에도 좋고 하체 근력도 증진시키므로 하루 두 번씩 최소 10층 이상의 계단을 오르라고 권유됩니다.

 Top 25 Most Stunning Flags Worldwide Today
</h2>

 Across time, countries have altered their flags to represent the strength of spirit among those who relate to the emblem.


 These flags act as symbols of national pride, particularly when their citizens are abroad. Although many nations claim to possess the finest flag design, we've ranked the top 25 countries known for having the most attractive flags.

<h3>
 1. Kenya
</h3>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pEq9J" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pEq9J.jpg"/>

 In 2024, the Kenyan flag might be considered one of the most stunning globally. Since 1963, this emblematic banner has displayed a central shield flanked by two intersecting spears, set against a tri-colored band in black, red, and green with white stripes. Green symbolizes Kenya’s lush environment and abundant resources.


 Black symbolizes the Kenyan population and the broader African continent. The color red stands for the blood shed during the fight for independence. White embodies peace and cohesion, whereas the shield and spears signify Kenya’s protection of these values along with everything else depicted.

<h3>
 2. South Africa
</h3>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pEnzn" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pEnzn.jpg"/>

 Since its adoption and use starting in 1994, the South African flag ranks amongst the top five most attractive globally. It encapsulates hundreds of years of the nation’s heritage. Despite its elegant design, the official meanings behind the colors of South Africa's flag have remained unexplained.


 The belief is that the black, green, and yellow hues were adopted from Nelson Mandela's African National Congress (ANC) banner. Conversely, the shades of red, white, and blue came from the Transvaal flag. It’s thought that the 'Y' pattern symbolizes the blending of various cultures into a single nation.

<h3>
 3. Mozambique
</h3>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pEq9T" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pEq9T.jpg"/>

 The Mozambican flag stands out due to its inclusion of an AK-47 rifle, serving as a reminder of the sacrifices made during their fight for freedom from colonial rule. In 2024, this distinctive banner ranks within the top 10 most aesthetically pleasing national flags globally.


 Official use began in 1983. Displayed on the flyside are a djembe, an AK-47, a book, and a star. The book signifies the significance of education. The djembe stands for the crucial role of agriculture as the foundation of the nation’s economy.


 The green color symbolizes Mozambique's abundant natural resources; white stands for peace, black represents the African continent, yellow indicates the nation's mineral wealth, and red signifies the blood shed during the fight for independence.

<h3>
 4. Malaysia
</h3>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pEsCV" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pEsCV.jpg"/>

 Malaysia’s flag ranks among the ten most stunning flags in Asia. It is widely recognized as
 
 Jalur Gemilang
 
 (Marks of Honor) has been in use since 1963. The Malaysian flag includes 14 alternating stripes of white and red. Additionally, it incorporates a blue canton containing a crescent and a fourteen-pointed star known as the Bintang Persekutuan (Federal Star).


 The alternating white and red stripes stand for Malaysia’s 13 states along with its federal territories. The 14 spikes of the star embody the solidarity among these regions. Meanwhile, the crescent moon alludes to Islam as the nation's official faith. Finally, the color yellow represents the regal hue associated with the Malay rulers.

<h3>
 5. Nepal
</h3>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pEeiT" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pEeiT.jpg"/>

 The Nepalese flag ranks as one of the world’s ten most attractive flags. Its beauty lies in its distinctive and uncommon design, which differs from typical rectangular shapes. This uniqueness stems from the inspiration drawn from Mount Everest’s majestic peaks.


 Two themes, the moon and sun, embody serenity and determination. The predominant color is deep crimson red, symbolic of the nation’s official flower—the rhododendron. The borders are adorned with blue, representing tranquility.

<h3>
 6. Kyrgyzstan
</h3>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pEltc" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pEltc.jpg"/>

 Kyrgyzstan was formerly a member of the Soviet Union before its collapse. This country never used its flag until 1992, six months after declaring independence. The Kyrgyzstan flag features a bold red background to represent the bravery of the country's people.


 A yellow symbol of a scorching sun at the core represents peace and wealth. The forty rays around the sun are symbols of the Kyrgyz tribes that formed a union to fight against the Mongols. The inner lines on the sun represent a tunduk, the top part of the Kyrgyz yurt and family home.

<h3>
 7. Australia
</h3>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pEgYX" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pEgYX.jpg"/>

 The Australian flag is stunning not only visually but also symbolically. It ranks within the top 20 most attractive flags globally. The presence of the Union Jack in the upper left corner signifies a significant recognition of the Commonwealth.


 Beneath the Union Jack lies a prominent seven-pointed star similar to the Commonwealth design. To the right side of the Australian flag, there are five differently sized stars representing the Southern Cross constellation visible from Australia.

<h3>
 8. Argentina
</h3>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pEnzW" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pEnzW.jpg"/>

 Argentina boasts one of the world's top ten most stunning flags. This national symbol features two light blue stripes at the top and bottom, sandwiching a single white stripe in between. In the center of this design shines a striking golden "Sun of May."

<h3>
 9. Brazil
</h3>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pEnA0" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pEnA0.jpg"/>

 Auriverde became Brazil’s national flag in 1889 and stands out as one of the most beautiful country flags due to its rich symbolic elements. The green hue symbolizes the nation's vast landscapes and woodlands, whereas yellow signifies the abundance of gold within the country.


 In the center lies a blue area shaped like a celestial sphere symbolizing the nighttime sky over Rio de Janeiro. Small white stars represent individual Brazilian states within this sphere. The phrase "Ordem e Progresso" (Order and Progress) spans the globe, inspired by French philosopher Auguste Comte’s positivist slogan.

<h3>
 10. Cuba
</h3>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pEnA1" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pEnA1.jpg"/>

 The Cuban flag was conceived well ahead of the nation’s liberation. Its creation was inspired by the vision of a sovereign Cuba. Designed in 1849 by Narciso López, despite him not witnessing it raised above Cuba, his creation stands as a timeless emblem of the country's fortitude and the fight for freedom.


 The white stripes signify the purity of thoughts, whereas the corresponding blue stripes stand for the three governing sections of Cuba. The red section at the edge embodies bravery, with the star within the red triangle representing the sovereignty of the recently established nation.

<h3>
 11. Greece
</h3>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pEu7G" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pEu7G.jpg"/>

 The Greek flag brings to mind images of the nation’s enchanting azure seas and picturesque shorelines. Despite appearing rather simple, its symbols carry significant meaning. In 2023, it ranks among the world’s most stunning national flags.


 The color blue stands for the ocean and the heavens. White signifies the unblemished nature of the fight for freedom, distinct from the prominent structures along the coastline. The sequence of nine alternating blue and white stripes embodies the nation's slogan.
 
 Eleftheria I Thanatos
 
 , signifying liberty or sacrifice.


 The cross located in the farthest corner symbolizes the nation's official faith, which is Eastern Orthodox Christianity.

<h3>
 12. Canada
</h3>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pEnA7" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pEnA7.jpg"/>

 Canada boasts one of the most impressive flags globally, distinguished by its iconic red maple leaf at the center. Historically, the British Empire colonized Canada. The country adopted its official flag in 1965 from among three proposed designs; the final choice proved to be the optimal design. This emblematic flag features just two colors: white and red.


 The maple leaf serves as a symbol of Canadian identity, embodying values such as bravery, faithfulness, and dignity. This iconic image includes 11 points; ten points stand for the Canadian provinces, with the eleventh point signifying the nation’s three territories.

<h3>
 13. New Zealand
</h3>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pEgZ5" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pEgZ5.jpg"/>

 For much of its history, New Zealand flew the Union Jack flag, acting as both a British colony and dominion. In 1902 though, it adopted its present-day flag. Nonetheless, the country’s current design retains the British emblem in the top-left corner.


 New Zealand's flag features three colors: royal blue, red, and white. The deep blue shade aligns with the Royal Navy’s Blue Squadron Ensign. The red stars represent the nation's position in the Southern Hemisphere and honor traditional Māori legends.


 In 2016, New Zealand residents had the option to choose between retaining the current flag design or adopting a new version with the recognizable silver fern emblem. However, the original flag prevailed and continues to serve as the country’s official banner.

<h3>
 14. Bosnia and Herzegovina
</h3>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pEnAh" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pEnAh.jpg"/>

 Although Bosnia and Herzegovina may not be among the top countries people think about globally, it likely boasts the finest national flag worldwide. This elegant emblem combines deep symbolic meanings alongside its aesthetic appeal. The colors featured on the flag of Bosnia and Herzegovina are yellow, blue, and white.


 The vertices of the yellow triangle symbolize the three principal ethnic communities: the Bosniaks, Croats, and Serbs. The diagonal row of white stars stands for numerous European nations, highlighting Bosnia & Herzegovina’s position as part of a community of friendly neighbors.

<h3>
 15. The USA
</h3>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pEjkb" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pEjkb.jpg"/>

 The United States' flag stands out for its historical significance and widespread recognition. Among global banners, it ranks highly in popularity. Since 1960, following the admission of Hawaii into the Union, this emblem has flown proudly. Its design features 50 stars, each signifying one of the present-day American states. Meanwhile, the alternating thirteen red and white stripes pay homage to the original British colonies that formed the foundational units of the nation.


 The American flag could stay unchanged for now, as both Washington D.C. and Puerto Rico express interest in achieving statehood status within the U.S. Should this occur, adjustments would be necessary to include additional stars symbolizing these newly admitted states.

<h3>
 16. Denmark
</h3>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pEu7V" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pEu7V.jpg"/>

 The flag of Denmark displays a red field adorned with a white Nordic cross extending from edge to edge. This cross embodies the Christian faith of the Danish populace, whereas the crimson backdrop signifies the nation’s monarchical heritage. In use since the 13th century, this banner stands as the world's most ancient continually employed national flag.

<h3>
 17. Mauritania
</h3>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pEejC" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pEejC.jpg"/>

 Mauritania’s national flag features a green background adorned with a central yellow crescent and star. Green represents Islam, whereas the crescent and star stand as emblems of this religion. Additionally, these colors signify the nation's principal populations: the predominantly Black community and the Arab-Berber population. This distinctive emblem was formally embraced in 1959 and stands as an exclusive marker of Mauritanian heritage.

<h3>
 18. Tanzania
</h3>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pEqau" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pEqau.jpg"/>

 The Tanzanian national flag features a diagonal band with yellow borders that splits the flag diagonally from the bottom left corner towards the top right. The upper segment (left side) is colored green, whereas the lower section is blue. This design was formally accepted on June 30, 1964, following the independence of the Tanganyika territory.


 The black stripe with yellow borders signifies the African continent and the Tanzanian populace. The green section depicts the nation’s abundant plant life and fertile farmlands. Meanwhile, the blue segment stands for the Indian Ocean as well as Tanzania’s ambitions for advancement.

<h3>
 19. Guyana
</h3>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pEu7Z" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pEu7Z.jpg"/>

 The national flag of Guyana features five colors: green, gold, white, black, and red. The green edging represents the nation’s agriculture and forests, whereas the gold stands for its abundant minerals.


 White symbolizes Guyana’s numerous rivers, coastlines, and majestic waterfalls; black embodies resilience and dedication, while red conveys the passion and energy of its citizens. The flag includes the country’s coat of arms featuring a sugar mill and an indigenous canoe equipped with paddles, which highlight Guyana’s rich legacy in industry and agriculture.

<h3>
 20. North Macedonia
</h3>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pEu83" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pEu83.jpg"/>

 The flag of North Macedonia features a horizontal tricolor of red, yellow, and green. Red stands for courage, yellow signifies the nation’s riches and splendor, while green embodies the country’s natural assets as well as aspirations for economic growth. This official banner was established in 1995 after the dissolution of the previous federation, Yugoslavia.

<h3>

 The presence of ancient structures within the city demonstrates that Matera has been inhabited by humans for nearly 12,000 years. Although officially established as Matheola by a Roman official in 251 BC, the town has provided refuge to various groups throughout history up until the 15th century.
 
 th
 
 Throughout the centuries, various groups such as the Lombards, Byzantines, Arabs, and Ottomans inhabited the city. Each group introduced their distinct cultures and lifestyles, leaving behind enduring impacts that outlasted themselves.
 


 
 In 1514, Matera began playing a significant part in history. Owing to its distance from principal Italian urban centers, the nobility abandoned the area, leaving the residents to fend for themselves amidst severe economic hardship. Consequently, they were compelled to organize collectively to survive this challenging era. Thus, the community relied on their age-old traditions and systems.

 The residences underwent redevelopment, and new caves called

 were constructed directly on the mountainside. For over four hundred years, the

 Introduced in 1950 by the Italian government, the Matera urban renewal initiative has revitalized the city. The primary aim was to rejuvenate the area while maintaining its distinctive charm and beauty. Upon arriving in Matera, one immediately notices its distinct ambiance. Winding pedestrian-only lanes showcase an array of architectural styles among the homes. Standing atop the ramparts offers stunning vistas of Italy’s rural landscape—a harmonious blend of expansive verdant fields and dramatic mountain ranges.

Adding soy milk to your cuppa cuts the risk of blood pressure risk

DIWIDA.NEWS coffee, diet and nutrition, food and drink, health, milk

It might not be the obvious choice when it comes to making a morning cuppa. But using soy milk instead of standard cow's milk could lead to improved blood pressure and lower levels of inflammation, a study suggests.


 Soy milk – made from soybeans – became popular in the 1990s as an alternative to drinking traditional dairy milk.


 However, sales have declined in recent times after it was classed as an 'ultra-processed food', due to the frequent addition of sugar. Dairy alternatives such as almond or oat milk have also proved to be generally more popular.


 Researchers at the University of Toronto investigated the health effects of substituting cow's milk with soy milk by conducting a large analysis of 17 previous trials involving more than 500 people.


 The average duration of each trial was four weeks and participants drank an average of 500ml of milk – either dairy or soy – a day.

<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pd7u4" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pd7u4.jpg"/>
<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1pd9Vf" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1pd9Vf.jpg"/>

 The team discovered that across all studies, substituting cow's milk with soy milk was linked to reductions in cholesterol levels, as well as lowered blood pressure and lower markers of inflammation.


 As a result, the authors recommend that policy makers consider exempting fortified soy milk from being classed as an ultra-processed food as this ranking 'may be misleading'.


 They added that on average, across the studies, the total sugar content of soy milk was around 60 per cent less than that of cow's.


 Writing in the journal BMC Medicine, the Canadian team said: 'Current evidence provides a good indication that replacing cow's milk with soy milk… may result in advantages for blood lipids [fats], blood pressure and inflammation in adults.'


 Previous studies have suggested that pea milk is the only vegan option that provides anything close to as many nutrients as cow's milk.


 Scientists looked at the amount of vital nutrients in cow's milk, as well as 85 samples of pea, soy, almond, cashew, coconut, hemp, oat and rice milk.


 Pea milk had the highest levels of phosphorus, zinc and selenium, while soy had the most magnesium. All the plant milks were inferior to cow's milk.


 Plant milks are produced when a crop is ground down and soaked in water with emulsifiers and stabilisers.

 Berdasarkan studi, buah tropis yang berwarna kuning tersebut sudah dimanfaatkan dalam praktik medis turun-temurun sejak jaman dulu.


 Walau begitu, mengkonsumsi terlalu banyak nanas bisa menimbulkan beberapa dampak negatif bagi kesehatan tubuh.


 
 Maka, apakah yang akan terjadi pada tubuh kita bila mengonsumsi nanas secara rutin tiap harinya?
 



<h2>
 Kegunaan mengonsumsi nanas secara rutin setiap harinya
</h2>
<h3>
 1. Bagus untuk kesehatan saluran cerna
</h3>

 Nanas memiliki zat gizi seperti karbohidrat, serat, kalsium, kalium, vitamin C, serta beberapa mineral yang bisa mendukung proses pencernaan.


 Buah ini memiliki zat pengurai makanan bernama bromelain, yang berperan dalam pemecahan protein-protein besar. Zat tersebut bisa membantu proses pencernaan serta meningkatkan kinerja usus.

 Di samping itu, buah-buahan tropis ini bisa menunjang daya tahan tubuh, memperlancar proses pencernaan, serta membantu dalam pengaturan berat badan dikarenakan kadar kalorinya yang rendah.



<h2>
 Dampak negatif dari mengonsumsi nanas secara rutin setiap harinya
</h2>

 Biasanya, nanas disenangi oleh sebagian besar orang.


 Tetapi jika dikonsumsi dengan berlebihan, nanas dapat menyebabkan dampak negatif pada kesehatan, terutama untuk orang-orang yang memiliki alergi.


 Beberapa dampak negatif yang timbul dari konsumsi nanas secara berlebihan antara lain adalah sebagai berikut:

<h3>
 1. Kejadian pedas di mulut serta bengkaknya area tersebut
</h3>

 Sebagian orang mungkin merasakan sensasi terbakar di mulut ketika menyantap nanas. Keadaan tersebut dapat menimbulkan bengkak pada area mulut serta lidah, sehingga membuatnya menjadi tak nyaman.


 Perasaan tersebut timbul akibat adanya bromelain, yaitu enzim pemecah protein. Karena alasan ini, diingatkan agar tidak berlebihan saat memakan buah naga.



<h3>
 2. Gangguan pencernaan
</h3>

 Enzim bromelain pada buah nanas bisa menyebabkan beberapa dampak negatif seperti diare, ruam kulit, mual, serta periode menstruasi yang tidak normal atau lebih banyak dari biasanya.


 Di samping itu, kandungan asam sitrat yang tinggi di dalam buah nanas bisa memicu ketidaknyamanan pada perut apabila dimakan secara perut kosong.


 Keadaan itu bisa memperparah masalah pada sistem pencernaan, sebagaimana diambil dari

<h3>
 3. Korosi pada gigi
</h3>

 Asam yang ada di dalam nanas mampu menimbulkan kerusakan pada lapisan enamel gigi serta gusi. Zat asam tersebut pun bisa mengakibatkan peradangan pada gusi dan kadang-kadang merusak gigi hingga berlubang.


 Di samping itu, konsumsi nanas berlebihan bisa mempengaruhi kondisi kulit serta bibir. Untuk mencegah dampak negatif tersebut, sebaiknya kendalikan porsi pengonsumsian nanas Anda.



<h3>
 4. Perdarahan pada wanita yang sedang mengandung
</h3>

 Pengonsumsian nanas secara berlebihan perlu dijauhi, khususnya bagi wanita hamil. Hal ini disebabkan karena nanas bisa mengakibatkan refluks asam atau heartburn, kondisi yang lumrah timbul selama masa kehamilan.


 Di samping itu, konsumsi nanas secara berlebihan bisa mengakibatkan diare serta kram yang mirip dengan rasa sakit pada proses persalinan.


 Perempuan dengan alergi lateks biasanya lebih berisiko mengalami alergi terhadap nanas. Oleh karena itu, perlu adanya kewaspadaan ekstra pada kondisi semacam ini.

Experts reveal the seven odd behaviors linked to a high IQ

</ul>

 Some of the greatest minds, such as Albert Einstein and Charles Darwin, exhibited strange behaviors like solitude and burning the midnight oil.


 And while the world may have found those habits as odd, numerous studies have linked them to having high IQs.


 That is because
 
 our daily practices have a big impact on our intelligence - and can even change the way we think.
 


 
 And
 <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-3519065/What-does-music-taste-say-online-quiz-caring-sociable-obsessive-stickler-rules.html">
 psychologists have pinpointed
 </a>
 at least seven strange behaviors that they believe are signs of a genius.
 

<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1oIZ4I" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1oIZ4I.jpg"/>
<h2 class="mol-para-with-font mol-style-subhead">
 
 
 1. Talking to yourself
 
 
</h2>

 
 If you talk to yourself, you're not crazy. It may actually be a sign that you're smarter than the average person.
 


 
 Even though this behavior is somewhat irrational, a growing body of evidence has suggested that it has big cognitive benefits - including better memory recall, confidence, focus and more.
 


 In a 2012 study, a team of American researchers showed participants 20 pictures of various objects and asked them to find a a specific one.


 Scientists found that people who talked to themselves while looking at the images were able to identify the object faster.


 Another study, conducted in 2017 by UK researchers, discovered that our brains act much like those of monkeys when we stop talking to ourselves - activating separate visual and sound areas of the brain for each task.


 In the experiment, researchers asked participants to repeat meaningless sounds out loud, such as 'blah-blah-blah,' while performing visual and sound tasks.


 'Because we cannot say two things at the same time, muttering these sounds made participants unable to tell themselves what to do in each task,' Paloma Mari-Beffa, senior lecturer at Bangor University, wrote in
 <a href="https://theconversation.com/is-talking-to-yourself-a-sign-of-mental-illness-an-expert-delivers-her-verdict-77058">
 The Conversation
 </a>
 .


 'Under these circumstances, humans behaved like monkeys do, activating separate visual and sound areas of the brain for each task.'


 So the next time you're caught muttering to yourself, don't be embarrassed. That strange habit is helping you process information and stay sharp.

<h2 class="mol-para-with-font mol-style-subhead">
 
 
 2. Staying up late
 
 
</h2>

 
 The early bird may get the worm, but evidence has suggested that night owls actually have higher IQs.
 


 
 <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-13620635/Night-owls-sharper-brain-function-morning-people.html">
 A study, published in January, analyzed
 </a>
 data from 26,000 adults, finding those who stay up late scored significantly higher on cognitive tests than early risers.
 

<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1oIX5B" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1oIX5B.jpg"/>

 
 Night owls scored about 13.5 percent  higher than morning types in one group and 7.5 percent higher than morning types in another group.
 


 
 Many brilliant minds have been known to have nocturnal habits, including Darwin and Marcel Proust.
 


 
 If your mind is most active while the rest of the world sleeps, you may have a high IQ.
 

<h2 class="mol-para-with-font mol-style-subhead">
 
 
 
 3.  Daydreaming
 
 
 
</h2>

 
 
 Getting lost in daydreams is often perceived as absent-mindedness. But scientists have said that this is actually a sign that you're smart and creative.
 
 


 
 
 'People with efficient brains may have too much brain capacity to stop their minds from wandering,' said Eric Schumacher, a Georgia Tech associate psychology professor, said in a statement.
 
 


 
 
 His research found that people who report more frequent daydreaming score higher on intellectual and creative ability tests.
 
 


 
 
 MRI scans also showed that these people had more efficient brain systems.
 
 


 
 
 This evidence suggests that daydreaming is actually a great workout for your brain. So if you find your mind wandering, that's a good sign.
 
 

<h2 class="mol-para-with-font mol-style-subhead">
 
 
 
 
 4. Thriving in clutter
 
 
 
 
</h2>

 
 
 
 Some people can't stand a messy room or desk. But the highly intelligent don't seem to mind it - or perhaps even prefer it.
 
 
 


 
 
 
 A team of researchers set out to determine why that is. They put study participants in either a messy or tidy office space and asked them to come up with new uses for ping pong balls.
 
 
 


 
 
 
 Though both groups came up with a similar number of ideas, the researchers found that the participants in the messy room came up with more creative and interesting ideas.
 
 
 


 
 
 
 'Disorderly environments seem to inspire breaking free of tradition, which can produce fresh insights,' said Kathleen Vohs, lead scientist behind the experiment, in a press release.
 
 
 

<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/image/AA1oIPBa" data-reference="image" src="https://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AA1oIPBa.jpg"/>

 
 
 
 'Orderly environments, in contrast, encourage convention and playing it safe.'
 
 
 


 
 
 
 So, leaving your space untidy may help you think outside the box.
 
 
 

<h2 class="mol-para-with-font mol-style-subhead">
 
 
 
 
 
 5. Asking lots of questions
 
 
 
 
 
</h2>

 
 
 
 
 If you're constantly asking how things work, where they come from, and dozens of other questions that pop into your head, you're probably highly intelligent.
 
 
 
 


 
 
 
 
 Curiosity is one of the most common signs of brightness. It's a sign that your mind is always seeking to understand the world around you.
 
 
 
 


 
 
 
 
 It also means that you're always learning and storing new information. The more questions you ask, the more your understanding expands.
 
 
 
 


 
 
 
 
 To some, it may seem annoying. But for people with high IQs, this insatiable curiosity is natural.
 
 
 
 


 
 
 
 
 As Einstein once said, 'I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.'
 
 
 
 

<h2 class="mol-para-with-font mol-style-subhead">
 
 
 
 
 
 
 6. Being introverted
 
 
 
 
 
 
</h2>

 
 
 
 
 
 Many geniuses have been known to hide themselves away to work or think in peace and quiet.
 
 
 
 
 


 
 
 
 
 
 It makes sense - it can be difficult to focus while surrounded by the constant chatter and stimulation of a social environment.
 
 
 
 
 


 
 
 
 
 
 Plus, studies have shown that introverts tend to engage in deeper cognitive processing than extroverts. They tend to think more thoroughly and critically, which can be associated with a higher IQ.
 
 
 
 
 


 
 
 
 
 
 Introverts also tend to prefer activities that require concentration and sustained mental effort, such as reading and research, which can foster intellectual development.
 
 
 
 
 

<h2 class="mol-para-with-font mol-style-subhead">
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 7. Devouring books
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
</h2>

 
 
 
 
 
 
 Avid readers are constantly learning new information, vocabulary words, complex ideas and different perspectives. It's like a workout for the mind.

 From lush tropical rainforests to the unending expanse of snow atop Kilimanjaro, Africa’s tallest summit, every step of the ascent showcases distinct and breathtaking vistas.


 
 From lush tropical rainforests to icy permafrost, every step of climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, the tallest mountain in Africa, offers distinct and breathtaking vistas. In celebration of the launch of the new Air France Paris-Charles de Gaulle (CDG) - Kilimanjaro (JRO) service beginning on November 18, 2024, we present five extraordinary natural scenes you can encounter during your journey up this majestic African landmark.
 


 <h2 class="wp-block-heading">
 Between 1,800 meters and 2,800 meters lies a thick and moist montane woodland.
 </h2>


 
 From the outset, you find yourself enveloped in the vivid environment of the dense mountain forest surrounding Kilimanjaro’s base in Tanzania. This warm and moist region, situated between 1,800 and 2,800 meters elevation, boasts an abundant variety of flora including towering ferns, cascading lichens, and stately trees. As you progress, expect to encounter the lively calls of colorful avian species as well as glimpses of frequently seen blue monkeys and colobus monkeys native to these woodlands.
 


 <h2 class="wp-block-heading">
 Between approximately 2,800 and 4,000 meters above sea level, one can find heath and moorlands.
 </h2>


 
 When you exit the rainforest, you arrive at a moorland plateau blanketed with heather, situated between 2,800 and 4,000 meters above sea level. Here, the air turns cooler by several degrees, transforming the scenery entirely; forests yield to resilient bushes and native flora like colossal groundsel and towering lobelias. Meandering paths traverse undulating terrain dotted with flowering heather, providing unobstructed vistas of the valley floors beneath.
 


 <h2 class="wp-block-heading">
 Between 4,000 and 5,000 meters lies the alpine desert region.
 </h2>


 
 As elevation rises, plant life becomes sparse. Situated between 4,000 and 5,000 meters lies the alpine desert zone, characterized by its dry, stony terrain dotted with volcanic stones. Harsh climate patterns, remnants of old lava eruptions from the nearby volcano, along with insufficient oxygen levels lend this region a lunar appearance. Notably, within this section resides one of the most striking landmarks on your journey: the awe-inspiring Barranco Wall—a towering rock formation measuring nearly 300 meters in height—which can only be navigated via a slender trail, proceeding in a line as climbers hold onto the precipice for support.
 


 <h2 class="wp-block-heading">
 At an altitude of 5,000 meters, you'll find glaciers and permanent snow cover.
 </h2>


 
 As you approach the peak, climbing higher than 5,000 meters, you reach an area covered with eternal snow and ice fields. Despite their recent retreat due to climate change, Kilimanjaro’s glaciers remain awe-inspiring. Particularly striking is the sight of the Rebmann Glacier on the mountain’s southern slope, offering climbers some of the most unforgettable moments during their ascent.
 


 <h2 class="wp-block-heading">
 Around 5,895 meters high, the crater along with the breathtaking panorama from the summit offers a stunning vista.
 </h2>


 
 After several hours of hiking, you're nearly at the top of Mount Kilimanjaro. Often, the journey to the Kibo crater begins during the night so that climbers arrive at the edge of the caldera just as the sun rises. From there, it’s merely a 200-meter stroll across the crater—a short one-hour walk—to get to Uhuru Peak, which stands tall at 5,895 meters above sea level. The vista from the peak is absolutely stunning. With good visibility, you can gaze out over vast expanses below.

6 Dinge, die ein Kind von seinen Eltern erbt – und nie ahnt, dass es sie hat (Magyarország)

Az általunk végzett genetikai vizsgálataknak eredményeképpen ma megszámláltuk néhány olyan csodálatos információt, ami mindegyikünktőlörökkedhet!

 Műholdázásban vagyunk? A tekinteted hasonló ahhoz, amilyen volt az apukádnek? Vagy talán a lábad ugyanezen alapján hasonlítható meg az anyukádnével? Ugye mindannyian emlékszik rá!
 fizikai jellemzőinek legtöbbjét szüleinktől
 
 örököl
 
 jük
 , vagy
 ritkább esetekben nagyszüleinktől
 . Ezeken felüli és más rengeteg dolgunk van, ami a
 
 gén
 
 Itt azon alapján múlik. Milyen ezek a személyes tulajdonságok?

<h3>
 1. Magas koleszterin
</h3>

 Többnyire mindenki úgy gondolja, hogy az
 magas koleszterin
 A koleszterinszint és az étkezés közötti kapcsolat létezik. Hosszan és boldogan élvek, szükségünk van nagyszerűen teli napi diétára felváltva friss zöldbizottságokkal és gyümölcssal, amely természetesen rendben van, de ezzel semlegesítenénk azt, hogy bizonyosaknak tekinthetjük volna arra, hogy mindez elhárítja a problémát. Ugyanis néha más tényezők - például genetika - befolyásolhatják a vércsereünket is. Ez állapotot körülbelül 500-ből 1-en tapasztálható meg. Ők eseten sosem segítne csökkenni a kolesterolértékükre csak zöldségektől és gyümölccsektől alkoholtalan étrendnek követése.

</div>
<h3>
 2. Tanulmányi eredmény
</h3>

 Amikor a szüleiddel egyetértenek abban, hogy lecsökkentették az õrséget, mert rossz jegyű jelentsél a suliban, valójába egyszerûen megengedes lehette volna elmondani nekik, hogy ezektõl köszönheted. Kutatások alapján viszont a tanulmányi sikeres része csak annyi százaléknak tekinthetõ meg, ahányadika az örökleges
 genetikától függ
 Százezer gen tisztában van veled abban, hogyan alakíthatod ki sporttervezési képességeiddel a suli mezszámokon, tehát ha az apukaidék rendben mentek át a tantárgyat, te is magasabb valósszennyezetű leszel ennek elérére, ami természetesen megfordult irányba is érvényesül.

<h3>
 3. Kopaszodás
</h3>

 A
 kopaszodás
 Azért tennék bele a listát, mert bár mindannyian tudjuk, hogy ez örökliséges kérdés, sokan még mindig csak az atyákat vállalják felelőségre, közöttük olyanok is, akiknél a anyák jól megmutatkoznak ebben a tekintetben. Az általunk látogatható kopaszodás-gén egyszerűen megtalálható az X kromoszónán belül; viszont természeti hatású faktorok valamint a napi életmód is jelentősen befolyásolja ennek a folyamatnak az eredményét.

 4. Az autóvezetési képességek
</h3>

 Amire eddig gyanusagunk volt, az ténylegesen bebizonyosodott a vizsgálatainkkal: nem mindenki rendelkezik ugyan abban mértékben a készségkönyveléstől szükséges emlékenyitessel vagy odafigyelés-konzentrációval kapcsolatosakkal amilyet a járművet vezeteni igénybevételez. Akár tudnivaló lehet minden forgatóhazi előírásot és elérhetséget is, de ha nincsenek megfelelő genetikai feltételeid ami következtében sérülnek információfelfogása, fókuszálási- és jelentőségiértelmező képtelenséged, valamint válaszképesed, ez esetben sajnálom, hogy bár ott lenned kellene a irányító kerék utánuk, talán mégsem leszel kiemelkedő játékos ebben a területen. Ezen belül ennélfogva annyi mint háromszázaddel teszi igazzá a statisztika, ahogy azt a mérlegük alapján mutatják.

<h3>
 5. A kávé szeretete
</h3>

 Igazából ez nem azért van, mert így látod a szüleiddel kapcsolatban. A kutatók megvetették ilyen típusú emberek közötti hasonlíthatóságot.
 akiék nem képesek kávét fogyasztani aznap
 , és olyanokat találtak meg, akik igazából rendelkeznek egy specifikus genetikai profilmal. Ezzel az izolált csoport tagjainak lassabb folyamatú volt a szervük által koffein bőséges előállítása. Így alapján nincsenek abban az elvi állapotban, hogy érezniuk legyen a koffein impulzszerű hatásait; eztért sem sejtik be a lehetőséget arra, hogy hozzáfordulnaknálakunk a kávéhoz egyszerűen csak energia feltöltésére.

</div>
<h3>
 6. Népszerűség
</h3>

 Először is találkozhassunk egy ilyen furcsa gondolattal: a populációs siker mögött lehet genetika rejljen. Esetleg nem hisznéd el, de a Harvard-i kutatók sok évig álldogáltak ezzel az elképzeléssel és végül arra jutottak, hogy az első emberi társadalomban az olyan tagok – akik például megértenek az élelmiszertermesztést vagy felismernék a melegen lógó fenyegetéseket – nagyon valószínű volt, hogy közepén játszanak szerepet. Ezek az emberek tehát termelték majd tovább gyerekeit, akik egyszerűen csak többen kívánták volna legyenük. Ez azt jelenti, hogy a mai napon annyi népek van, akinek a génjeivel kapcsolatos előnyös tulajdonságainkat örököltem, amire mi magunk sincsenek stimmelhetoek. Természettelenül érdekes dolog, ugye? De mindez alapján továbbra semmerült ki pontos okokkal, így a kutatóknak még rengeteg dolgot kell tanulnianak ennek teljes történetéből.

How Many Galaxies Dot Our Universe?

 The Milky Way is merely a tiny fragment within a vast universe teeming with countless galaxies. However, if we were to venture an informed estimate, approximately how many galaxies might be out there?


 That appears to be an easy query, yet it’s far from straightforward. The primary issue is that despite having access to our strongest telescopes, we are still able to observe just a minuscule portion of the cosmos.


 As per an astrophysicist, the observable universe refers solely to the portion from where light has managed to arrive at our location.
 Kai Noeske
 , who currently serves as an outreach officer at the European Space Agency, told Live Science.


 The universe is
 13.8 billion years old
 However, the observable universe extends over 13.8 billion light-years in all directions. This occurs due to the expansion of the universe; initially, when the cosmos were smaller, light had an earlier beginning.

<img data-document-id="cms/api/amp/video/AA1oaE0N" data-reference="video"/>

 Currently, the overall dimension in every direction is approximately 46 billion.
 light-years
 ," Noeske said.


 That's significantly smaller than what we anticipated for the whole universe. As we understand it, 'We can observe only up to 3 percent of the universe,'
 Pamela Gay
 , a senior scientist at the Planetary Science Institute, told Live Science.

 The second issue is that due to the vast number of galaxies, we can only estimate the overall count by examining limited areas within the observable universe.


 As Gay explained, you observe a tiny section of the heavens, tally all objects within that segment, and then extrapolate those findings across the entire sky.


 However, this still necessitates a threshold. “How do we classify something as a galaxy?” asked Noeske. “We’ve got truly massive galaxies that must be at least ten times heavier than ours,” he noted, “and then there are numerous smaller galaxies, including those with lesser masses—about one-tenth that of our galaxy—and extending right down to dwarf galaxies.”


 At times, researchers must establish a lower limit for a galaxy’s mass to enable accurate estimations.


 "Noeske stated that if we establish a mass threshold and aim for it to be conservative, such as one million solar masses, then the estimated total number of galaxies from the early stages until now would be roughly between one and two trillion." Experts believe there were more galaxies present during the earlier periods of the universe compared to what exists currently, hence these estimations represent an averaged figure across different epochs.


 However, those findings originate from the Hubble telescope—the James Webb Space Telescope is beginning to provide insights into these observations—which focus on regions close to Earth within our solar system and are constrained by everything in between.
 solar system
 That illuminates the sky," Gay stated. "We do possess one spaceship equipped with a camera that has managed to travel outside of all the debris within our solar system, and that’s the
 New Horizons spacecraft
 ."


 A 2021 study
 utilized the onboard camera of New Horizons to gauge the overall quantity of light across different sections of space and then calculated the number of galaxies required to produce such luminosity.


 “And then, as they find themselves beyond all the light sources within our solar system, they conclude that we might not require as many galaxies as previously believed,” Gay stated. “As a result, their calculations suggest there could be around 200 billion, perhaps even down to 100 billion, galaxies observable in the universe.”


 "Somewhere between 2 trillion galaxies at the higher end and 100 billion galaxies at the lower end lies the estimated number of galaxies within our observable universe," she explained.


 If you estimate that this accounts for approximately 3%, or possibly even less, of our universe, then you could scale up this galaxy count to determine the overall quantity of galaxies in the cosmos. Should our observable portion represent an even lesser fraction of the entire universe, the cumulative number of galaxies would consequently decrease as well.


 However, since we lack knowledge about the actual dimensions of the universe, these calculations remain uncertain. "In the case of an infinitely vast universe, you would expect to find limitless galaxies," explained Gay.
