Body odour is important for everyone to consider because most people who have it do not even know-Except you tell them. Body odour, also known as Bromhidrosis happens at puberty because of increasing hormones called androgens. While sweat itself is virtually odourless, BACTERIA use it as a breeding ground and multiply rapidly. What you smell is the products related to bacteria breakdown of keratin protein on the surface of your skin. Body odour is usually associated with the armpits, however bacteria can also produce odour in the groin, anus area, upper thighs, and feet, among other places. Thoroughly washing your skin with a wet washcloth and soap — especially those areas prone to sweating — can help prevent body odour. If you want to be "odour-free" consider the following tips: 1. Apply an antiperspirant at bedtime. This gives the product a chance to work while you sleep and are not sweating. If you apply antiperspirants after showering in the morning, the sweat y...

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has described the performance of President Goodluck Jonathan as far below average. He stated this on Friday while speaking with book writers in Abeokuta, Ogun State, as part of activities marking the popular Ake Festival. When asked of his view on Jonathan's administration so far, Obasanjo said: "His performance is below average. I will not accept responsibility for his performance. There is nobody that gets such a position without being helped." The former President also debunked the insinuations that he had selected Jonathan as the running mate to the late President Musa Yar'Adua because he knew the latter was sick. "Yar'Adua told me he was well. He showed me his medical report and I even consulted experts," he said. He said he had only supported the idea of a South-Southerner succeeding Yar'Adua to extend the sense of belonging that the emergence of a Southern President in 1999 represented. When the...

Surveys say that one of the things that make people lose their confidence is hair loss. This is because many people cannot be confident in front and even around with others knowing that these people are openly staring into his or her bald spots. Experts say that hair loss or baldness can be inevitable to people especially if their families have a history of it. These people—whose genes came from older generations who are prone to hair loss— cannot really do much about it since the condition runs in their genes. But for those who don't have it in their genes and still lose so much hair, now is the time to worry. WHAT CAUSES HAIR LOSS? More and more people are becoming prone to hair loss because they don't pay much attention to the signs and symptoms of the condition. If you think you are prone to baldness, the first thing that you need to check—aside from the family's history of hair loss—is the number of strands of hair that you lose ...

You probably already know how important it is to eat a well-balanced diet, but it is even more important when you are pregnant. Keep in mind now you are eating for two. Whatever you eat, the baby eats as well. In fact the baby actually takes your nourishment so you must eat enough for both of you. The healthier you eat the better it is for the pregnancy and you. Never miss a meal while you are pregnant, especially breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and your baby has probably been waiting since he/she woke up in the middle of the night. You may learn that if you wait so long before eating you start to feel sick, this is your body telling you to eat. Do it! Make sure you are getting enough of the food you need daily. It takes 4-6 servings of dairy produce a day for a healthy pregnancy, this can include some cheeses, milk, yogurt. This provides the baby with calcium which it'll need to develop healthy growing bones. Adding extra calcium to your diet woul...

Some pastors now engage in wife snatching too? Daily Gister gathered that a jilted husband, one Mr. Ifeanyi Kenneth Okpoko, has sent a petition to Bishop David Oyedepo, the general overseer of Winners Chapel, asking him to tell one of his pastors, Kelvin Ugwuoke, to leave his wife alone. In a letter dated November 14 2013, titled: "Case of Adultery, Snatching Of My Wife And Secret Marriage Engagement", an embittered Mr Okpoko alleged that Pastor Ugwuoke snatched his wife, Blessing Ifeanyi Okpoko and went secretly to Dubai and engaged her in marriage. He stated that both Pastor Ugwuoke and Blessing are ministers in Winners Chapel, noting that, before she left his house, she was the pastor-in-charge of House Fellowship in his house at Ajao estate . He said he legally married Blessing, a banker, according to the marriage act and when he discovered she had a secret marriage arrangement, he confronted her with some photographs while Blessing was still living with him. Thi...

American-born queen Ahneva Adeniyi Adegeye, one of the wives of King Sunny Ade, they've been married for 30 years - in a recent interview with Encomium mag says no man has one woman. "Once you see any man, you see polygamy. No African man has one wife. I don't care if he's an indigenous African American or African Caribbean, it's in their nature to spread love across and to have more than one woman they love. Polygamy only puts a stamp on it to make legal. Most men have a wife, a mistress and a concubine. So, in a way, polygamy is every where in Africa and all over the world" She said. .........................................................................................

The News Agency of Nigeria just gave a report that a bomb explosion just occurred in Azare Town of Bauchi State, North-Eastern Nigeria. The agency quotes the Bauchi State Police Commissioner, Lawal Shehu, as stating that the casualty figure is yet to be ascertained. He also said rescue operation is ongoing. This would be second explosion in the town within a week following an earlier one on November 7 that killed 13 people. The North-Eastern part of Nigeria has been the most affected by the Boko Haram insurgency which has caused the death of over 13,000 people and has displaced hundreds of thousands of others.

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has asked President Goodluck Jonathan to apologise to Nigerians for wasting the mandate they gave him rather than asking them for another. Describing the Jonathan administration as the worst government ever in Nigeria, the party said so many Nigerians cannot wait to elect a better President that will have positive impact on them. The APC said: "Mr. President, Nigerians have asked themselves a simple question: Are we better off today than we were before President Jonathan assumed office, and they have unanimously answered in the negative. This is why your declaration failed to resonate, despite the hired crowds you ferried to Abuja." The party also said it has weighed the President's claims in his declaration speech against the reality on the ground and decided to present to Nigerians the true scorecard of President Jonathan in the critical spheres of life, including security, education, job creation, corruption, power sector, and ...

The world's tallest and shortest man in the Guinness Book of World Records, met each other for the first time on Thursday November 13 at an event in London. The tallest man, 31 year-old Sultan Kosen from Turkey, a part-time farmer, is 8 feet 3 inches tall and can reach a basketball hoop without jumping. He became the world's tallest living man in 2009. He also holds the record for largest hands on a living person. His hands measure 11.2 inches from the wrist to the tip of his middle finger. The shortest man, 74 year-old Chandra Bahadur Dangi, from Nepal, is just 21½ inches tall and is the shortest adult human ever verified by Guinness World Records. He works as a weaver who also helps look after buffaloes & cows in his remote mountain village of Reemkholi. He weighs just 32 pounds. The occasion the unique men met was the 10th annual Guinness World Records Day, which celebrates record-setting achievements around the globe.

A chemical produced by intestinal bacteria has been linked to heart failure, according to a new study. The chemical and heart risk link has been established previously, but the association with bacteria is new. The chemical is called trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO). The chemical has an association with heart disease. However, more importantly in the context of disease prevention, the chemical may prove to be significant as a signal for diagnostic tests for predicting future heart attacks. The connection between the chemical and bacteria came about after researchers tracked 720 heart failure patients over a five-year period. The researchers discovered that patients who had high levels of TMAO then they had more than a 50 percent mortality rate over 5 years. Taken this correlation, the researchers then found that TMAO is produced when certain intestinal bacteria (such as species of the bacterial genus Acinetobacter) digest certain dietary components that are found in red meat, egg...

University of Liverpool microbiologists are working on a new treatment against antibiotic resistant bacterial infections. The treatment is designed to be an alternative to current antibiotics. The growing menace of antibiotic resistance is, arguably, the single biggest threat faced by the world's population. Some new research presents an encouraging new angle. The research is based on the use of specially engineered lipid (fat) bodies, called liposomes, These appear to prevent bacterial toxins from killing human cells. Liposomes are artificially-prepared spherical vesicles, they are often used to deliver drugs into the human body (as well as delivering of dyes to textiles.) A study has shown that bacterial toxins, produced by major human pathogens like Methicillin Resistant Staphlycoccus aureus (MRSA) can be neutralised if they bind to liposomes instead of human cells. Therefore, introducing liposomes into infection sites could confuse bacteria into binding to these artificia...

Researchers have developed a special gel that is made up of a power virucidal chemical (to kill viruses) and a special nanofiber mesh. The device, designed to fit into a woman's body, can stop the transmission of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The risks associated with HIV infection are well known and having the virus can lead to AIDS-related diseases. To date there is no cure for HIV infection (although the virus can be suppressed in the body). There are various devices designed to minimize the risk of HIV infection through sexual intercourse. However, most of the anti-HIV drug delivery methods available are in the form of gels and suppositories. These tend to lack appropriate vaginal retention; they are also prone to medicine leakage; and often cause uncomfortable wetness. A team of researchers have developed a new device that overcomes these problems. Specifically the new device is made up of a microbicide that contains hyaluronic acid (HA) nanofibers. The dev...

Polio has almost been eliminated from the world and just two countries remain endemic: Afghanistan and Nigeria, with cases also high in parts of Pakistan. A new report considers how the final steps can be taken to eliminate the disease. Bethesda - According to the World Health Organization (WHO), polio is nearly eradicated, with the number of cases limited to a few hundred each year. Poliomyelitis (polio) is an acute, viral, infectious disease spread from person to person, primarily via the fecal-oral route. In around one percent of infections, poliovirus spreads along certain nerve fiber pathways, preferentially replicating in and destroying motor neurons within the spinal cord, brain stem, or motor cortex. This leads to the development of paralytic poliomyelitis. With global cases there are two of the remaining endemic countries: Afghanistan and Nigeria. Health agencies are taking steps to eliminate the virus from these territories. The main obstacle to this, according to a rep...
