life becomes more threatening when people indulge themselves in the compulsive use of substances or behavior that includes alcohol, tobacco, drugs, gambling, shopping and the internet trying to relieve their day to day stress.

Metabolism

Every moment of everyday, our body is performing a delicate dance of converting, storing & burning energy, known as metabolism. It's when our body converts nutrients into usable energy source like amino acids, fatty acids, glucose and at a fundamental level electrons.

• citrus fruit shouldn't be taken with the meal

• apples are more effective than coffee at waking you up in the morning.

• caffeine inhibits the iron absorption as well as vitamin-c helps the body to absorb it.

• having dinner 3hours before going to bed, gives our body sometime to digest it.
