Alcohol

We all are interested in loosing weight. But there are many things that affect weight loss which make the process more complicated than it seem. When we eat different kind of food or take different kind of drinks our body produces different hormones in respond to those foods. Loose weight not only depends on the calorie consumption but also depend on the type of food we eat or drinks we take. Alcohol is one of the worst culprits when it comes to inhibiting weight loss because it disrupts the delicate balance of nutrition, fluid & hormones needed to lose fat. Because alcohol has very little nutritional value but it is very high in calories. For example, it is very easy to drink 200ml glass of wine but it is equivalent of eating 5 teaspoons of butter. Seldom people stop at one glass of wine or one beer; sometimes they mix sugary mixers such as lemonade or other sugary drinks which make thing lot worse.

Calcium

We need calcium for the development and maintenance of strong bones and teeth, and that’s where about 99% of the body's calcium is found. Calcium also helps the heart, nerves, muscles, and other body systems work properly. It is probably best known for helping prevent osteoporosis. Our body needs several other nutrients in order for calcium to be absorbed and used properly, including magnesium, phosphorous, and especially vitamins D and K.

Calcium is important for overall health. Almost every cell in our body uses calcium in some way. Some areas where our bodies use calcium are in our nervous system, muscles, heart and bone. Our bones store calcium in addition to providing support for our bodies. As we age, we absorb less and less calcium from our diet, causing our bodies to take more and more calcium from our bones. Over time this aging process can cause or contribute to osteopenia or osteoporosis.
