Hungry Blood

Our body needs carbohydrates proteins and fats for normal growth. If they are in excess harmful equally. Let us consider the carbohydrate, Starch has the harmful effects are diabetics, obesity etc. My doctor said that I should reduce my weight by 10 kg. But it is very difficult to control weight, even after fasting and reducing oil in food. I developed hunger at a particular time and I used to eat more sweet at that time as blood shows deficiency of sugar. As I consulted my doctor he said that please use whole grain products, which will release sugar at low pace showed some amazing results. Yes it worked out I lost 3 Kg after 7 months!!!

synthetic fruits

Vegetables and Fruits we eat are safe today? Obviously not so it may contain hazardous chemicals we spray on them in their production pathway. The vegetables and fruits we consume today may contain toxic residues. Last day one of my friends Mr.Anil Kumar came and asked me to suggest a pesticide for the control of Mango fruit fly? I told him to avoid spraying and a trap was advocated. He was satisfied. In my experience people want a quick remedy for pest Management. Pesticide application suddenly kills pest population and natural enemies of pest and may be congenial for development of another pest again we have to go for another pesticide finally the result is pesticide rich fruits and vegetables. In nature for every organism natural enemies exist and our task is to find out it and How to exploit them for pest management.

MIND IT

In Childhood students are cursing Mathematics Are they are devoid of mathematics in lifetime? Squares with length and breadth with 1.62 ratio (like T.V Screen Credit cards) appeals all of us, which is the average number obtained by dividing adjacent numbers in fibonacci series, Which has many biological implications. Humans unlike animals have the ability to quantify things around him and appreciate the value of things we are making objects with certain Geometric Shapes, houses, posts or in Art or find in natural things and we appreciate them. Our traders in local market are selling products and have calculations of life. So Daily life without mathematics is Zero

The Clock

Last week I had an urgent meeting at Thodupuzha, at 11Am In Idukki District, Which is of 7 hours journey from my home District. My train starts from Trivandrum at 5 o clock morning. I had forgotten to set my alarm but I woke up early at 3 o clock.Thanks to my biological clock in my body I could reach the destination in time. Plants and animals have the inbuilt mechanism of biological clock in them for their survival. In plants a bluish protein called phytochrome can sense the Light and can manifest light associated activities. Think of periodic activities exhibited by organisms.
