Shisha addiction may be stronger than Cigarette addiction

Shisha addiction may be stronger than cigarette addiction Not the healthy choice.  HelgaBragina/Shuttersto Smoking shisha is  very popular , particularly among young people. And despite what many people believe, it is highly  addictive . In fact, a drug commonly prescribed to help people quit smoking cigarettes doesn’t seem to work for shisha smokers, our  latest study  shows. Given that shisha is often smoked with friends and family, its addiction may be more than just physical. This strong social element to the addiction may be the reason the smoking cessation drug, varenicline, which is effective for cigarette smokers, doesn’t have the same effect on daily shisha smokers. Traditionally smoked by older men in the Middle East and South Asia, shisha has now gained popularity around the globe. Shisha cafes and bars have opened in most cities in Europe and the US in recent years. Flavoured brands, such as fruit shisha, have become particularly popular with young people who

LOW CARB DIETS COULD SHORTEN LIFE, STUDY SUGGESTS

Low-carb diets could shorten life, study suggests By Alex Therrien Media caption Taking out food groups not beneficial, says nutritionist A low-carb diet could shorten life expectancy by up to four years, a study suggests. Low-carb diets, such as Atkins, have become increasingly popular for weight loss and have shown promise for lowering the risk of some illnesses. But a US study over 25 years indicates that moderate carb consumption - or switching meat for plant-based protein and fats - is healthier. The study relied on people remembering the amount of carbohydrates they ate. 'Gaining widespread popularity' In the study,  published in The Lancet Public Health , 15,400 people from the US filled out questionnaires on the food and drink they consumed, along with portion sizes. From this, scientists estimated the proportion of calories they got from carbohydrates, fats, and protein. After following the group for an average of 25 years, researchers

HOW YOUR AGE AFFECTS YOUR APPETITE

We all need food every day, but our changing relationship with it through the years can have a big impact on our health. Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Reddit Share on LinkedIn Share on Google+ Share by Email By Alex Johnstone   From  The Conversation Do you eat to live or live to eat? We have a complicated relationship with food, influenced by cost, availability and even peer pressure. But something we all share is appetite – our desire to eat. While hunger – our body’s way of making us desire food when it needs feeding – is a part of appetite, it is not the only factor. After all, we often eat when we’re not hungry, or may skip a meal despite pangs of hunger. Recent  research  has highlighted that the abundance of food cues – smells, sounds, advertising – in our environment is one of the main causes of overconsumption. Our appetite is also not fixed, it changes across our lifespan as we age. As Shakespeare might have put

NEW GENERATION OF DEODORANT 'ON THE WAY'

New generation of deodorants 'on the way' Image copyright GETTY IMAGES Experts believe they have found a better way to tackle body odour (BO). The key, they say, is understanding how skin bacteria create the smell from virtually odourless armpit sweat. Two teams, at the Universities of York and Oxford, say they have now deciphered the first step in this molecular process. It could pave the way for a new generation of deodorants designed to block this unpleasant chain of events, the journal  eLife  reports. Sweat Sweat is made by two types of glands on the skin: Eccrine glands, all over the body, produce sweat associated with exercise, which helps us keep cool and does not smell Apocrine glands, in the hairy armpits and genital areas, produce sweat containing a number of complex molecules - including proteins - that are odourless when secreted but can be turned into BO by bacteria Even very small traces of the BO chemicals these bacteria produce can smell c
