There are enormous benefits of taking a vegetarian diet from physical health to mental well-being of mind.



There have been various researches done by a number of scientists describing the benefits of a plant-based diet.
Vegetarian diets are generally low in cholesterol and other harmful components.

Normally Vegetarian diets are followed by light species contrary to Non-Veg diets which are normally accompanied by strong species. And we all know, consuming too much spicy food isn't good for health.

When it comes to digestion, it takes a shorter time to digest a plant-based diet compared to a meat-based diet.

Effects of thoughts on your physical body

We all have heard this statement  "A thought is more powerful than any weapon", we can make or break our lives by thoughts. Now, it's just a theory let me get you some scientific details about how does it happen?

Whenever we create a thought (any thought) be it a positive, negative, or neutral thought corresponding to that thought, hormones in our body release some chemical which in turn affects our mental & Physical well-being.

For instance, thoughts of happiness & joy lead to the release of Endorphins.
Thoughts of anger & hatred lead to the release of cortisol in your body.

Bacteria Buster Spray


Fruits and vegetables are good for your health-but the germs, wax and pesticide residue on them are not. Before taking a bite out of that juicy apple, give it a good wash. Right before consuming any produce, make sure it's clean by using this all-natural solution. Simply mix 1 cup water with 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 1 tablespoon vinegar; place in a spray bottle. Spray all over produce and let sit for 5 to 10 minutes, then rinse under running water. For fruits coated in wax such as apples and grapes, it's best to peel off the skins after washing since water alone cannot remove the sticky chemical residue.
