Rinsing hair in rice water is a traditional beauty treatment popular in many regions in Asia.

HOW TO MAKE RICE WATER

Soaking is the quickest way to make rice water.

To use this method:

• take ½ cup of uncooked rice
• rinse thoroughly
• place rice in a bowl with 2–3 cups of water
• leave to soak for 30 minutes
• strain the rice water into a clean bowl

Fermented vs. plain rice water

Some rice water advocates claim fermented rice water has more benefits than plain rice water.

According to a 2012 study, fermented substances have a higher amount of antioxidants. Antioxidants may combat hair and skin cell damage, which is why they are typical ingredients in beauty products.

To ferment rice water, follow steps 1–4 of the soaking method. Before straining, leave the rice water to stand at room temperature for up to 2 days, allowing it to ferment. Strain the rice water into a clean bowl before use.

Boiling

Another way to make rice water is by boiling the rice.

Cover ½ cup of rice with double the water typically used for cooking. Cook the rice in boiling water and strain the rice water into a clean bowl before use.

How to use rice water

Rice water can replace a commercial conditioner. To do this, a person should:

• wash hair with shampoo
• rinse thoroughly with water from the tap
• pour rice water onto their hair
• massage the rice water into the hair and scalp
• leave on for up to 20 minutes
• rinse hair thoroughly using warm water from the tap

Are carbs really the enemy? In this video, we explore the science behind complex carbohydrates – particularly whole grains and fruits – and their impact on cardiovascular health and all-cause mortality. Despite popular misconceptions, the research on this topic is overwhelmingly positive. In fact, studies consistently show that consumption of these foods is associated with lower risk of chronic diseases like heart disease, diabetes, and even dementia. So why the confusion? Tune in to learn about the one-sided debate surrounding carbohydrates, the importance of whole foods, and the real culprits behind common health issues. Don’t miss this enlightening discussion on the truth about carbohydrates!

The Brain Docs wrote two comprehensive reviews, which were published last year on the importance of Omega 3s for the brain.

• Some 2,380 middle-aged Americans completed a food questionnaire

• Researchers in Finland suggest bacteria desulfovibrio is a cause of Parkinson’s
• They say the bug cause proteins to clump, resulting in the injury or death or cells

As part of their study, they took faecal samples from ten Parkinson’s patients and their healthy spouses. 

Lab tests showed that all of the Parkinson’s patients had the bacteria in their faeces, along with eight of their partners.

DSV strains were then fed to organisms called nematode worms — which are known for making copies of protein alpha-synuclein. A build-up of this protein is believed to trigger the condition.

Results showed worms fed DSV strains from Parkinson’s patients bore ‘significantly’ higher levels of the protein, compared to ones fed the same bacteria from healthy individuals or E-coli.
