Many cases of hypertension have shown minor symptoms and sometimes none at all, thus calling it the silent killer. I am suffering from it and I thought sharing some information about hypertension or high blood pressure could save some lives. What is Blood Pressure? Blood pressure is what keeps us alive.

I used to fry with coconut oil, since it is most commonly used by Filipinos and is the most available in any mini-store, until someone told me to use Canola oil instead. They say it is healthier and that you won't be worried of having a heart disease because you are using a healthy cooking oil. Was it any different from coconut oil or vegetable oil that are commonly seen in stores? How does it

Here's what I learned from my girlfriend about boiling eggs. Fill the pot with water, enough to cover the whole egg. Turn on the fire at maximum so that the water boils faster. When the water starts boiling, wait for exactly 12 minutes before turning off the stove. I've been doing this since I learned about it and every time I get perfectly boiled eggs. Thanks Chawa! P.S.

The largest by far of our body organs, skin ranks among the least understood by most people. Most of us know about UVB radiation causing skin cancer, but not so many know that that is only when an excessive amount of sunlight strikes the skin over a long period of time. At that, only after many years does the cancer appear, often as much as two decades. Skin cancer mostly appears at the former

To burn kilojoules at work, take the stairs, not the lift, or hang up the phone and walk to your colleague's office. Great advice, but when you're in an uncomfortable suit and tie or toe-crunching high heels, taking even one step can feel like climbing Everest. Dress less restrictively and you're more likely to move, according to a study at the University of Wisconsin. They gave 53 people who
