Green tea will keep you from getting old
This drink is known for reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases, and thanks to the content of fluorine, it strengthens teeth and prevents caries. However, recent studies have shown that green tea also prevents cell aging. The powerful antioxidants contained in it reduce the so-called oxidative stress, or the process of cell damage as a result of oxidation. Oxidative stress disrupts the protective properties of cells and can lead to the development of diseases such as diabetes mellitus, atherosclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, stroke and cancer. This stress is also one of the components of the aging process. According to researchers, 4 cups of green tea a day can reduce the intensity of oxidative stress by 2 times, thereby slowing down the aging of our body.

Thanks to yoga, the body will quickly become toned
If you regularly practice yoga, follow the technique of performing each asana and know how to keep concentration throughout the practice, then your body will really change for the better: the internal muscles will tighten up, the relief of the body will be more clearly defined, and with stretching, there will finally be progress.

5 reasons why food should not be washed down with water
5 reasons why food should not be washed down with water. Drinking food, you excite the feeling of hunger, thereby reducing the stay of food in the stomach. If you have a habit of washing down fatty foods with cold drinks, this leads to an almost complete stop of the digestive system - when the temperature that cold drinks give decreases, the fat freezes right in the stomach. The only exception can be dry food, which can be washed down with a small amount of water. In no case should you drink food with such drinks: soda, sweet juice, tea, sour-milk drinks (nutritionists consider them to be a full meal, not drinks). The only exception is dry wine, which stimulates the digestion process and helps digest food. You can drink drinks no earlier than 40-60 minutes after eating and 30 minutes before.

Yoga is for women
Another common myth that yoga is only suitable for women is not true, although it would seem that most of the practitioners in the classes are still women. But the fact remains: some men are more enduring and patient than many women, and they perform asanas as if it costs them nothing. On the other hand, it may seem that yoga is too soft a “genre” for a man. But this is also the fruit of gender thinking with all the ensuing conclusions, most of which are far from the truth. If we approach the issue from a philosophical side, that is, from the one from which professionals see it, then yoga is primarily about the search for a person himself, so there is no need to talk about belonging to male or female.
