9 Health Benefits of Chocolate

Superfoods don't just come from your supermarket's produce aisle. In fact those chocolate candy bars next to the gummy bears now qualify. Study after study proves that dark chocolate—sweet, rich, and delicious—is good for more than curing a broken heart. The secret behind its powerful punch is cacao, also the source of the sweet's distinct taste. Packed with healthy chemicals like flavonoids and theobromine, this little bean is a disease-killing bullet. The only problem? Cacao on its own is bitter, chalky, nasty stuff. Enter milk, sugar, and butter—good for your taste buds, not always good for your health. Besides adding calories, these can dilute the benefits of cacao. So snack smart: Stick to healthy chocolate with at least 70 percent cacao (or cocoa, which is cacao in its roasted, ground form). As long as the content is that high, says Mary Engler, Ph.D., a professor of physiological nursing at the University of California at San Francisco, you can reap the be...

indian man gives birth twins Brothers - Sanju Nagpur India

-

It is a story of 29 August 2009, when Indian Doctors reviled a news that an amazing thing happened to Sanju Bhagat, a 36-year-old farmer living in a small village near Nagpur city in India. He had an unusually large stomach for as long as he could remember but because he was a very thin man; his odd complexion reminded everyone of a pregnant woman. According to the man’s own account all the neighbors used to laugh at his stomach’s size.

Finally the belly had become so huge that the poor farmer could barely breathe, and the issue was no longer a cosmetic one. When the ambulance finally brought him to the hospital he was immediately sent to the operation room.

The doctors assumed that what he had was a gigantic tumor and were very concerned about all sorts of complications during the operation.

They were prepared for the worst as they set off to remove the malignant formation, and no one dared to imagine what kind of thing they would soon discover. As soon as the surgeon cut deeper into the belly, almost a bucket of liquid spilled out onto the surface.

Then the extraordinary thing happened. The doctor placed his hand inside and announced that there were many bones. “First one limb came out, then another. Then a genitalia fragment, hair, limbs, jaws…” – recalls one of the surgeon’s assistants.

Out of Sanju’s stomach came forth a weird half-formed creature with well-developed arms and legs and quite long nails.

 As it turned out Bhagat had one of the rarest medical anomaly: fetus in fetu, and the horrific-looking creature pulled out of him in actuality was a mutated body of his twin brother. According to the doctors’ reports there are only 90 known cases in the history of medicine when a twin sibling gets trapped by the second one and continues its development as a parasite.

 This tends to happen very early in pregnancy and usually both of the twins die before birth. In rare times, however, the twin survives with the other inside and goes on living while carrying and feeding an underdeveloped parasitical fetus through their shared umbilical chord.

 Usually there is medical intervention at the point when the parasite becomes so big that it causes harm to its host. Immediately after the surgery Sanju began to feel a lot better. When the doctors told him what (or rather whom) they removed from his body, he refused to take a look at his “brother.” The man ended up going back to his village and continues a normal life there. But he still gets teased a lot when people tell each other that the farmer went to the city to have a baby. Oddly they are somewhat right…

Experts Warn It's 'Too Sexual' to Smooch Your Kids on the Lips

Just when you think it was cool to show your little one some TLC, here comes the fun police. As much as you want to love up on your kid, experts now say kissing your child on the mouth is bad because it's "too sexual." if you can stop laughing for a second, you'll see that Dr. Charlotte Reznick, author of The Power of Your Child's Imagination: How to Transform Stress and Anxiety Into Joy And Success, is trying to be serious. She believes a "kiss on the lips can be stimulating" and that might confuse a child. Dr. Reznick even goes as far to remind us how lips are an erogenous zone. "If mommy kisses daddy on the mouth and vice versa, what does that mean, when I, a little girl or boy, kiss my parents on the mouth?" Dr. Charlotte questions.  So what's a parent supposed to do when their child walks up (or stumbles, depending on their current level of coordination) and tries to plant one on the kisser? Do some funky Matrix move or swat ...

8 Qualities Woman Has that Her Man Can’t Just Resist!

Ladies, if you’re interested in having a quality relationship with your man, or finding a man to have a quality relationship with, read on! Always remember that men and women are different. So to attract a man, and keep him, it is imperative that you understand men (especially your own man!). As mentioned in the book, Act Like A Lady, Think Like A Man, many women are clueless about how men think. A man desires a woman he can respect and trust- a woman of good character and integrity. Depending upon your goal and behavior, you can become for him the “marrying type” or the “plaything”.  Men are more likely to fall in love with a modest woman – modest in behavior, dress, and in the way she talks. They may lust after the “hot” woman, but she is not likely to be the one to meet his mom.  A smile is always an excellent start to any relationship. So, if smiling does not come naturally to you, start practicing and perfecting your smile. Your intent will show too, so pract...
