<p>1. Drink plenty of water because nothing is better than water. Keeping your body well hydrated by drinking plenty of water each day (6-8 glasses) is essential to maintaining a healthy voice. Foods containing large amounts of water are excellent hydration-conscious snacks, including apples, pears, watermelon, grapes, plums, etc.</p>
<p>2. Stop smoking as smoking is irritating to throat and vocal tissues. Smoking also causes inflammation and polyps of the vocal cords that can make the voice very husky, hoarse, and weak.<span id="more-138"></span></p>
<p>3. Don’t abuse or misuse your voice. Avoid yelling or screaming, and try not to talk loudly in noisy areas.</p>
<p>4. When giving a speech or presentation, consider using a microphone to lessen the strain on your voice.</p>
<p>5. When you are sick, spare your voice. Don’t talk when you’re hoarse due to a cold or infection. Listen to what your voice is telling you.</p>
<p>6. Consider voice therapy. A speech-language pathologist who is experienced in treating voice problems can provide education on healthy use of the voice and instruction in proper voice techniques.</p>
<p>7. Include plenty of whole grains, fruits, and vegetables in your diet. These foods contain vitamins A, E, and C. They also help keep the mucus membranes that line the throat healthy.</p>

<p>When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 Beers.<br />
<span id="more-134"></span><br />
A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.</p>
<p>The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.</p>
<p>The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full.. The students responded with a unanimous &#8216;yes.&#8217;</p>
<p>The professor then produced two Beers from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar effectively filling the empty space between the sand.The students laughed..</p>
<p>&#8216;Now,&#8217; said the professor as the laughter subsided, &#8216;I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things&#8212;your family, your children, your health, your friends and your favorite passions&#8212;and if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full. The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house and your car.. The sand is everything else&#8212;the small stuff.</p>
<p>&#8216;If you put the sand into the jar first,&#8217; he continued, &#8216;there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life.</p>
<p>If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff you will never have room for the things that are important to you.</p>
<p>Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.</p>
<p>Spend time with your children. Spend time with your parents. Visit with grandparents. Take your spouse out to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time to clean the house and mow the lawn.</p>
<p>Take care of the golf balls first&#8212;the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.</p>
<p>One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the Beer represented. The professor smiled and said, &#8216;I&#8217;m glad you asked.&#8217; The Beer just shows you that no matter how full your life may seem, there&#8217;s always room for a couple of Beers with a friend.</p></div>

<p>This is interesting. After reading this, you&#8217;ll never look at a banana in the same way again.</p>
<p>Bananas contain three natural sugars &#8211; sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy.</p>
<p>Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world&#8217;s leading athletes.<span id="more-103"></span></p>
<p>But energy isn&#8217;t the only way a banana can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.</p>
<p>DEPRESSION:<br />
According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.</p>
<p>PMS:<br />
Forget the pills &#8211; eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.</p>
<p>ANEMIA:<br />
High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.</p>
<p>BLOOD PRESSURE:<br />
This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit&#8217;s ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.</p>
<p>BRAIN POWER:<br />
200 students at a Twickenham (Middlesex) school ( England ) were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.</p>
<p>CONSTIPATION:<br />
High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.</p>
<p>HANGOVERS:<br />
One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system.</p>
<p>HEARTBURN:<br />
Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.</p>
<p>MORNING SICKNESS:<br />
Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.</p>
<p>MOSQUITO BITES:<br />
Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation.</p>
<p>NERVES:<br />
Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system..</p>
<p>Overweight and at work? Studies at the Institute of Psychology in Austria found pressure at work leads to gorging on comfort food like chocolate and chips. Looking at 5,000 hospital patients, researchers found the most obese were more likely to be in high-pressure jobs. The report concluded that, to avoid panic-induced food cravings, we need to control our blood sugar levels by snacking on high carbohydrate foods every two hours to keep levels steady.</p>
<p>ULCERS:<br />
The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in over-chronicler cases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.</p>
<p>TEMPERATURE CONTROL:<br />
Many other cultures see bananas as a &#8216;cooling&#8217; fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. In Thailand , for example, pregnant women eat bananas to ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.</p>
<p>So, a banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare it to an apple, it has FOUR TIMES the protein, TWICE the carbohydrate, THREE TIMES the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals.. It is also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around So maybe its time to change that well-known phrase so that we say, &#8216;A BANANA a day keeps the doctor away!&#8217;</p>
<p>PS: Bananas must be the reason monkeys are so happy all the time!</p>
