Bitter Kola Cannot Cure Ebola — Health Minister

The Minister for Health, Prof. Onyebuchi Chukwu, has said there is no scientific evidence of Garcinia kola, popularly known as bitter kola curing or preventing Ebola virus disease.

The research work that people are laying claims, to according to the minister is inconclusive.

It would be recalled that in 1999, a former Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and Professor of Pharmacognosy, Maurice Iwu, alongside some American researchers conducted a research that showed that extract from bitter cola tend to neutralize the effects of virus. But the outcome of that research work has not been

Experts Say Transmission Of Ebola Virus By Air Possible

THE Ebola Virus is essentially transmitted from human-to-human through direct contact with infected patients, or through contact with body fluids of a victim. However, scientists are not ruling out the possibility of transmission by air through aerosolised particles.

Previously, Canadian scientists have shown that the deadliest form of the Ebola virus (the Zaire Ebola) could be transmitted by air between species. Although no human over-ther-air transmission of the lethal viral disorder has been recorded, but the Patrick Sawyer incidence in Lagos, Nigeria, has reopened worries over the implications of the possibility of its transmission in an enclosed environment such as an aircraft cabin.

Why You Need To Go On A Detox Diet

A detox diet is very important for neutralizing as well as eliminating toxins from the body. If the toxins become so much in the body, they can harm the body tissue and also hinder normal cell activity. These toxins might also put stress on other internal organs and create physiological problems that will be manifested as mental and physical problems. The toxins usually come from the unhealthy junk foods and drinks that we take every day. The sedentary lifestyle that most of us live which is coupled with lack of exercise also contributes to the increase of toxins in your bodies.

Even though the liver, intestines, lungs, kidneys, blood, the skin as well as the lymphatic system actively work together to make sure that the toxins are converted into less toxic substances and also excreted from the body, it is important to detox once in a while so that these organs are not overwhelmed by the toxins. The detox diet is a short term diet that reduces the amount of chemicals ingested in the body, for instance when you consume organic foods. It usually emphasizes on foods that provide vitamins, antioxidants and other nutrients that the body needs to carry out the detoxification

So What's So Special About Arabica Coffee?

What's So Special About Arabica Coffee Beans?

Have you ever wondered why it is that Arabica coffee is mentioned as a selling point on some coffees and why it seems to attract a higher price as well? A quick online search will return hundreds of results for coffees boasting '100% pure Arabica beans' or 'blended using Arabica coffee'.

The answer is a lot more simple than you might think. Most coffee blends are made using either Arabica or Robusta, and most of the time, a mixture of the two in varying ratios. Robusta cherries contain, on average, just over twice the caffeine of Arabica cherries (which you might think is a good thing!) and more caffeine that almost any other major coffee type. Caffeine itself has a slightly bitter taste, and this shows up in the blending process when Robusta is used, resulting in a bitter and slightly burnt taste. Arabica, by contrast, contains far less caffeine and therefore results in a smoother and less bitter flavor.

Blurred Vision - Coping With The Diagnosis

Blurred Eye Vision
Blurred Eye vision occurs when a person lacks the sharpneScheduless and detail in their vision. Often this results in not being able to make out fine details. It can also occur because of a degenerative disorder, birth defect, etc. While most people can get away with blurred vision by using corrective lenses, others cannot find relief.

As a person who has dealt with low vision for the last 25 years, I urge you to take your blurry vision seriously, as it can be an indication of a far greater issue.
