About cooking n life

This is all about cooking and my life! I just love to cook but in my own way. With my mother before, I always cook at home but she will always complain since she wanted me to cook her way. And guess what I said to her? If she wants to have the taste that she needs, well, no choice but she needs to cook food for herself. I’m not perfect to do those perfect things for her and for the whole family. I’m not a super human. I’m just an imperfect human being that’s having a hard time correcting my imperfections. And now that I’m married, it’s the same! I’m still having a hard time in cooking. If I can make it right this time, I will forget it the next time I will cook that same recipe. Hmmm! Just so hard to become a human!

Tato and chicken

My baby is not getting any smaller and that’s the reason why I always cook some foods for him during noon time. And this photo, I cooked potato and stir fry chicken. I intended to make it color brown because he will run and hide when he will see some white colored foods. His words every time he will see some white foods are EWWW and YAKI.


When your heart needs to be made whole again

This article has been provided by the Virginia vascular surgery and thoracic surgery specialists.

When you suffer a heart attack or undergo risky heart surgery, your doctor may suggest that you enroll in a cardiac rehabilitation program. That recommendation might be made to patients who have undergone coronary artery bypass grafting, had a pacemaker implanted, or had an angioplasty performed. The goal is to improve your overall health, help you recover, and manage related risk factors, such as high blood pressure or diabetes.

In this article, we’ll explain how cardiac rehab works. You’ll learn about the four primary components of the system, and what you can expect during the program. We’ll also describe the benefits you’ll enjoy by participating.

The Four Components

The complete cardiac rehabilitation program includes four elements: periodic medical exams, exercise, advice regarding proper diet, and personal support. Once a rehab team has been assigned to you, they’ll perform regular examinations in order to measure your progress. This also lets them monitor any risk factors that may impede your recovery or pose a danger to your health.

You’ll also be provided with a regular exercise routine that includes a variety of activities to strengthen your cardiovascular system. Depending upon your health, that may include jogging, strength training, or swimming.

Because obesity is a major risk factor after a heart attack or surgery, your cardiac rehab team will work closely with you to modify your diet. They’ll focus on limiting the amount of cholesterol and fat in the foods you’re eating. Your team will also answer any questions regarding pain management, smoking, and other related issues. Some patients experience difficulty making an adjustment after surgery or a heart attack. This can often lead to feelings of depression or anxiety. Your cardiac rehabilitation team can provide counseling to help you adjust.

What Patients Can Expect

Most rehabilitation programs will last for up to three months. During this time, you’ll improve your physical health, increase your activity level, and make necessary changes to your diet. One of the main goals of rehab is to reduce the likelihood that you’ll experience future problems with your heart. So, your rehab program might include medications in order to control high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and other risk factors. If you’re an habitual smoker, your team will also encourage you to quit.

Overall Benefits Of The Program

There are many benefits to participating in cardiac rehabilitation, including an improvement in your health as well as your overall quality of life. Surgery is usually followed by pain in the chest area. Medication can be prescribed to limit it. Also, there’s less chance that you’ll experience another heart attack if you participate. The physical activity and healthy diet will reduce the likelihood of future problems. Cardiac rehabilitation requires time, effort, and patience. But, the investment can lead to a substantially improved quality of life.


Frutista :D

This is the first time I tried this FRUTISTA slurpy drink from Taco Bell. This is mango flavored which is mixed with ice and real fruit strawberry. I can compare this to the shake that I love so much in PH. Though hmmm the one in PH is a little bit yummier in taste since it is real mango fruit plus other mix! But the only store that I love in PH when it comes to mango shake is Orange Brutus. Anyway, I’m so glad husband decided to surprise me with this FRUTISTA. It reminded me of my good old days during warm summer days in PH.
