Drinking Cold Water After a Meal

My Mom and my husband has been telling me and the kids not to drink too much cold water but I always answer that I feel incomplete whenever I eat and then drink room temperature water. I'm talking about lunch and dinner as cold water is really a no-no in the morning. I remember my Mom's cough stopped when she starts drinking slightly warm water. Now I just browse upon an email from a friend sharing me information that drinking cold water after a meal can cause cancer! Really! Can you believe this?

Here’s what I learned from the emailed information. I know how it’s nice to drink a glass or two of cold water after a meal but you have to read the process in order to believe this one. The cold water will solidify the oily foods that we consumed and it will slow down the digestion. Then once this reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will definitely line the intestine and soon this will turn into fats and lead to the deadly disease cancer.

So it’s best to drink warm water or maybe hot soup after the meal to help digestion of the food. So now it will also help my constipation problem and my weight loss goal.

Fashionable Medical Uniforms



I’ve been seeing the modern uniforms for health care staff in the hospital near us and I must say it’s a lot different from what I used to see. It’s a refreshing sight to see and makes them look more attractive. It’s not that I don’t like the clinical white uniform that they used to wear but the colors make a friendlier look. I always think that hospitals shouldn’t be all white in color as it make me somewhat nervous seeing all white in walls, ceilings, floors and medical uniforms. It makes them look cool and very approachable.

I really like this new trend in uniforms because nurses and doctors can look more stylish while working especially when they get if from Blue sky scrubs. I’ve been browsing the site for discount nursing scrubs for my niece and was delighted to find various colors and style available. With nice stitching at the pockets and tapered waist it flatters the figure. Now these medical staff can be fashionable at work.

Now for those who want to dress their kids like little nurses or doctors for playing Blue sky have scrubs for kids which has the same fashionable stitching at the pockets and available in ceil blue color. I suddenly remember my cousin’s nursing uniform when we were kids. She loves playing with her uniform and always pretends to be a nurse. She didn’t pursue being a nurse and she’s now a teacher.
