Most of the information we perceive comes to us by sight. We see more than we smell, feel, hear or taste. This is common knowledge. But just try to imagine how your life would be without sight. Just try to imagine living your life in darkness. And all of that because you weren’t able to take care of the sense you so much value. Indeed, most people say that the sense of sight is their most important sense. Of course the sense of sight is not the most important one, according to scientists, who say that losing your touch could mean losing your life. But the loss of sight is undoubtedly a tragedy.

Nevertheless, we seem not to give too much attention to the way we look after our eyes. We seem not to care that we strain them a lot, in the detriment of our vision, given the condition that maintaining good vision is not that big of a deal. I have written an entire chapter on this topic inside the my book, but let’s give it a glance here.

Besides all the things, eye exercises, techniques and instruments that are available all over to maintain or improve eyesight and eye health, food is one of the most important and maybe even the most ignored. Many still think that what they eat only affects their belly. Wrong!

Everything you eat is transformed into fuel that makes your organs work. In order to have a healthy body you need to eat healthy food. So if you want to keep your sight the way it is and even improve it in time, you must consider what reaches your belly. Here is a list of things that you can consume in order to do so.

Green tea benefits the eyes. It has Vitamin C and Vitamin E, carotenoids zeaxanthin and lutein. This sort of tea is also known to be beneficial for the entire body.

Carrots are a cliché not to be avoided. All the myths about carrots (which are for the eyes pretty much what spinach is to Popeye) came to exist because of various benefits they have on our health (and the propaganda fed to the Nazis  during world war two!) .

Indeed, carrots help maintain good eye health. Carrots contain lots of Vitamin A – so much, in fact, that just one carrot a day can help a person meet his daily requirements. Some prefer to drink carrots, as juice, which is ok.

Tomatoes are not just for ketchup. They are a great source of lycopene. But you don’t know what that is, now, do you? Well, lycopene is an antioxidant that also aids eye health. Lycopene is proved – by researchers all over the world – to lower the risk of macular degenerative disease, which, as explained more detailed in the book, can cause blindness. Lycopene is concentrated in tomatoes, which makes them a great food choice.

Garlic keeps away not just vampires, but eye diseases two! Garlic is recommended for heart health, but it is undoubtedly useful to eye health. Garlic contains healthy, reliable amounts of selenium.

Spinach and other alimentary plants like it (lettuce etc) have plenty of Vitamin C and other phytonutrients and carotenoids important for the good health of the eyes as well as other parts of the body. There are few foods like them, and it’s best to include a portion of these foods every day in one’s diet.

Pure argan oil recently revolutionized the cosmetic world with its huge impact on skin and hair care. The oil has been around for thousands of years and was actively used by Moroccans as a part of their cuisine. But in recent years, researchers have noted that the oil has tremendous benefits on skin and hair due to the large range of nourishing compounds that it contains.

A little history of Moroccan Oil

The argan tree has been around since the Tertiary age and that makes it a really ancient variety of tree. The tree grows wild in the deserts of Asia and Africa and it is little known outside this region. The Berbers of morocco were the first to recognize the nutritive value of the tree and its nuts. The goats that they herded seemed to really like the fruit from the argan tree. The trees were about 8-10 meters in length they generally grew wild with no need for cultivation. The goats loved the tree so much that the goats actually climbed the trees to eat the fruits and the nuts. The fruits were green with a fleshy exterior like olives and with a mildly sweet taste.  The goats then excreted the nuts which were collected by the Berbers and ground up to collect their oil. The nutty oil was used as a dipping sauce by the local farmers and as a cheap source of cooking medium.

Production of Argan Oil

Argan oil is now produced commercially by roasting the seeds. The then acquires a nutty flavored taste. However, for cosmetic care, the nuts are collected and dry ground without roasting. This retains the essential skin and hair nourishing compounds in the oil. The roasted oil is preferred for cooking and is produced extensively in Morocco, but cosmetic production of the oil is only done by a few companies.

Health benefits of Argan Oil

•           Creams and lotions produced from the oil are supposed to soothe psoriasis and acne. The skin nourishing compounds present in the oil can soothe irritated skin and reduce excessive skin peeling.

•           Argan oil contains large amounts of beneficial compounds that can control bad cholesterol levels and triglycerides. According to a recent clinical study, it was noted that a daily 25mL consumption of Moroccan oil could be effective in controlling high blood pressure and cholesterol levels. In fact, in recent years, it has been actively promoted as a better alternative to extra virgin olive oil.

•           Argan oil can also increase skin and hair hydration levels as it tends to draw moisture into the body. Skin shows lesser wrinkles and hair appears softer and shinier with frequent use. The beneficial saponin products in the oil are supposed to be responsible for this action but research is till on.

•           Internal consumption of the roasted oil can aid in digestion and reducing inflammation in inflammatory diseases like arthritis.

Buying Argan Oil

Ensure that you buy unroasted oil for cosmetic use and roasted oil for cooking.

What is the first thing that comes into your mind when you hear the word “military”? Big, sturdy, strong, efficient? Like the men who wear them, Police watches have all these qualities. Generally intended as timepieces for men, these watches were manufactured in the early part of the 20th century for people who were associated with defence and the police.

However, once made for military personnel, these watches have come a long way, and have value-added features for civilian wearers. People of today wear military watches for the sake of fashion and as style statements. The market and the demand for these watches are growing every day.

People (both men and women) are finding these watches useful, especially those people who are involved in outdoor pursuits, such as trekking, rock climbing, diving, running, jogging, and so on. People who work as wildlife photographers and explorers love these watches as they incorporate a compass. They also have an inbuilt light source, water resistant capacity and long battery life. These watches also come with shock resistance to withstand extreme conditions.

If your activities involve an outdoor location, these watches come with a GPS system for direction, and they also have an embedded compass. Take your military watch on any expedition and utilize its night vision facility too.

There are a number of stores where you can find military watches for men and ladies watches. Manufacturers are going out of their way to customise watches to meet the demands of consumers. It could be difficult to choose a military watch if you don’t know exactly what you are looking for.

When you go to a watch store, you will find many different watch manufacturing companies. These are big brand names that attract millions of consumers.

Don’t fall prey to fake watches; they can look exactly like the originals. Make sure that you choose the genuine item. You need to be able to tell the difference between a fake watch and a genuine timepiece. But how will you do that? Your solution is right here: look for the features given below. Authentic military watches should have the following features:

Clear night vision – These watches have the ability to glow at night without light exposure, using H3 tritium technology.

Highly durable – Military watches should be super-durable. They should have the power to work even under extreme conditions. They will be made of sturdy materials, and their strap mostly of titanium. Anything else is not acceptable.

Check the hands – When buying your military watch, check the hands and make sure they have an exact chronograph movement.

Water resistant – Being water resistant, a military watch usually has the capacity to work properly even under 500 feet of water.

Swiss made – Most military watches have Swiss components, and are Swiss engineered.
