How does a pressure cooker work?

Those who claim to suffer from bad memory often have not developed interest in the subject being taught and therefore cannot concentrate. The second reason for poor memory is unresolved mental problems and conflicts. SO long a a problem weighs heavily on your mind, you cannot concentrate and unless you concentrate, you cannot remember. Speaking to your mother or a close friend will provide some relief.

The third reason for poor memory is the inability to relax. That is why I often say that youngsters must be taught relaxation techniques at school and college. A learning experience taken in a relaxed state leaves a deeper impression than a learning experience taken when the mind is tense.

Relaxation is not difficult, You can visit a temple, by doing shavasana. Or rhythmically repeating any mantra fort 10 minutes a day, before sitting down to study. What you say is not important, you can even say words like Ding Dong Dang. Even counting your pulse beats or concentrating on your breath can do the magic. Then begin your study session. You are welcome to report back to me.

Who are the East Indians?
East Indians were the original inhabitants of the Salcette Island, constituting the northern suburbs of today8217;s Mumbai which itself consisted of seven islands, during high tide, in those days.

The Mughal Emperor Bahadur Shah had ceded Bassein to the Portuguese. Out of these three, Mumbai was ceded to England by the Portuguese, in 1661, as part of the dowry of Catherine of Braganza when she was married to Charles II.

The East Indians belonged to four main groups: Kunbis, Bhandris, Agris and Kolis fisherfolk. My friend Roger Pereira tells me that in addition to these, there were the Marathas too. Though Mumbai came under the British, Salsette Island continued to be under the occupation of the Portuguese, who converted the locals to Christianity.

Even today, a majority of the East Indians speak The womenfolk wear nine yards sarees and wedding rites are similar to those at Hindu weddings. Among prominent East Indians are Michael Fereira, the great Billiard champion, former Cardinal and Arch Bishop, Simon Pimenta; and kaka Baptists, who defended Lokmanya Tilak in a court case, was also an East Indian. The Portuguese referred to these locals as East Indians, since with reference to Portugal, Salsette is in the east.

I am 22 years old and weighs only 45 kgs. I am 5 ft 10 inches tall. How can I increase my weight? The height and weight have much to do with heredity. It is commonly believed that those who eats more weighs more. This is not true. Just by eating more you cannot put on body weight. The hormonal balance has a lot to do with the Basal Metabolic Rate BMR, and there body weight.

The BMR of a person is determined by measuring his oxygen intake in the basal state the state during which he is at absolute rest, but not asleep. The higher the amount of oxygen consumed in a certain time interval, the more active is the oxidative process of the body and higher is the rate of metabolism. This method was formerly widely used to measure the functioning of the thyroid. Since the thyroid hormones are prime regulators of tissue oxidation and metabolism. Now BMR measurements are being replaced by radioactive isotope tests.

Jogging, exercising etc do help increase the oxygen consumption and increase the BMR. This is helpful in reducing weight, not adding weight. If the BMR is high, in spite of eating well, you may not add weight. But so long as you are healthy, you need not worry about adding weight.

Nutrition experts say that high protein breakfast helps to put on weight. You should have high protein content food first thing in the morning. Bengal gram chana or groundnuts, soaked overnight in water or a glass of milk is recommended.

But in the case of groundnuts, the skin has to be removed, as the skin has an enzyme called phytase which interferes with carbohydrate metabolism.By heating groundnuts, this phytase is destroyed. Consult a nutrition expert.
