Commonly believed healthy habits that are not healthy/ 03.

When you want to be Healthy and fit, we opt for the habits that help us for the same. However, there are some commonly believed habits that are not healthy. Today we will talk about the additional three habits that are considered healthy bit are actually not. these are,
  • Pregnancy results in a baby brain and may make you aphonic: This is an established fact that pregnancy results in cognitive function and memory impairment in 80% of the women. This is due to the shrinkage of the brain in the later stage of pregnancy.

Due to this change, the pituitary gland increases its secretions to counter the effects. The situation is true and clear but the case is that cognitive function impairment is not because of pregnancy but due to the associated life changes that pregnancy carries with itself. These are stress, sleep deprivation, depression of upcoming labour and major schedule shifts. So, the baby brain concept is not true in its actual cause.
  • Running is not good for your knees: Those who opt for exercises other than running advocates the concept the running is not good for your knees and it is causing pain and damage within it. But this is not true.

The data available at the Stanford University research has also found that the knees of runners are not less healthy not those who opt for exercise other than running. One additional point for runners is that to keep up there knees strength they should do some strength training as well, in addition to running. This will balance the strength in between there quadriceps and hamstrings.
  • You lose most of your body heat through your head: The phenomenon is behind the habit of wearing a warm hat in winter so as to keep your brain warm. But this is not true. The actual scenario is that you lose your Body Heat equally from all body parts and the same is true both in summer and winter.

    But what about you feel more warmer when you have your head covered? the correct reply is that when the rest of your body is covered the heat will escape more from the exposed parts and the same is true for ha dead as well. If you are fully covered with shorts at your legs, most of your body heat will escape from your legs.
