నాలుకతో శ్వాస తీసుకోవచ్చా?

సాధారణంగా నాలుకతో రుచి చూడటమే మనకు తెలిసింది. నాలుకతో శ్వాస తీసుకునే జంతువులు కూడా ఉన్నాయని పరిశోధనల్లో తేలింది. తాబేళ్ళలో ఒకరకమైన స్టెర్నో థెరస్ ఓడోరాటస్ అనే తాబేళ్ళు నీటి అడుగుభాగాన ఉన్నప్పుడు నాలుకతో శ్వాస తీసుకుంటున్నాయట.

ఆస్ట్రేలియన్ పైడ్ నెక్ వంటి తాబేళ్ళకు వాటి శరీరం వెనక భాగాన ఒక ప్రత్యేక కుహరం ఉంటుంది. ఇవి నీటి అడుగున ఉంటే, పరిసరాల నుంచి ఆక్సిజన్‌ను ఈ కుహరం గ్రహించడానికి తోడ్పడుతుంది. నాలుక కూడా వాసన చూడటంలో తాబేళ్ళకు ఉపయోగపడుతుందని శాస్త్రవేత్తలు గుర్తించారు.

కింగ్‌ఫిషర్ (Belted Kingfisher)


ఇవి అలస్కా, కెనడా, అమెరికా, మెక్సికో, వెస్టిండీస్, పనామా, మధ్య అమెరికా ప్రాంతాలలో కనపడతాయి. ఇది బాగా సోమరిగా ఉంటుంది.దీనికి నెత్తిమీద నల్లని ఈకలు పైకి దువ్వినట్లుంటాయి. మెడభాగం తెల్లని ఆభరణంగా, పొట్టమీద తెల్లని నల్లని చారలుంటాయి.

LOOSE WEIGHT BY DRINKING WATER

http://ak7.picdn.net/shutterstock/videos/2192314/preview/stock-footage-healthy-young-student-drinking-a-glass-of-water-while-studying-at-home-in-his-study.jpgRecent research suggests that water is an essential component of the human body. It helps in maintaining the balance of the body. Therefore if drank correctly it works miraculously in the process of loosing weight. Water increases the metabolism rate of the human body and helps in weight loss. Drink a glass of hot lemon water in the morning, this helps in loosing weight three times faster than simple exercising and thus helps to burn out large amount of calories from body. Consuming lots of water, fills up the stomach, thus it reduces appetite and cuts down on food intake. Water also helps in cleaning the body parts, by flushing out waste with the help of kidney.
Water helps in smooth functioning of the system and therefore it is essential for survival. Human body contains 65% of water. According to a research performed by the German scholars, they opine that water boosts the metabolism and burns extra calories in the body. The study has further claimed that a person who drinks about 1.5 liters of water everyday will loose some five pounds each year.
Objective of drinking water
  • Water fills up the stomach easily and give a feel of full stomach and eat less
  • Drinking plenty of water helps in flushing out the impurities of the body
  • Helps in smooth kidney operation
  • Boost up the metabolism system of the body
Loose weight by drinking water:
Drinking plenty of water, about 8 glasses per day helps in hydrating the body, boosts up body metabolism. Consuming lots of water helps in weight loss. Water allows the body to quickly burn the extra calories almost 3% faster than its normal process of burning. As said earlier, drink 8 glasses of water daily to maintain a healthy system. To maintain good health, always include glass of water in your daily diet.

How Many Glasses of Water a Day?

It’s the question that everyone seems to ask. And if you follow the standard advice (drink 8 to 10 glasses of water every day), your next request will be for directions to the restroom. Because unless you’re a strenuous exercise or a desert dweller, you’re unlikely to need that much water—and unless you’re carrying a horse’s bladder, you won’t hold onto it for long. No one’s quite sure where the 8-to-10 glasses factoid started. However, medical professionals do agree on quite a few things about fluids:

• Six glasses is usually enough. If you must count, 6 glasses of water a day is probably a good rule of thumb (not a bare minimum). But the average person, doing gentle activity in a gentle climate, can probably get all the fluid they need from solid food alone (although it’s not recommended).

• Follow your thirst. Your need for water varies greatly depending on your activity level. Fortunately, your body is surprisingly good at telling you when to drink. And the idea that we’re chronically (and unknowingly) dehydrated is little more than science fiction.

• Don’t fear coffee and tea. Despite the diuretic properties of caffeine, you’ll still retain a large amount of the fluid in every cup—and even more if you’re a regular drinker of caffeinated beverages.

• Dehydration may worsen constipation. If you’re straining to pass stool, you might benefit from increasing your water intake a bit. However, results vary, and a more likely cause of constipation is inadequate fiber in your diet.

So why are we so easily misled by drinking myths that don’t hold water? Quite simply, in the era of modern science, we’re used to hearing (and accepting) startling facts. But when it comes to water, medical research is in an unusual position: proving that our common sense was right all along.
