Your glass of fruit juice can up cancer risk

ANI | Oct 5, 2011, 12.00AM IST

A glass of juice in the morning is believed to be the healthy way to start a day, but Australian scientists have claimed that some fruit juices contain so much sugar that they actually increase the risk of certain cancers, rather than preventing them.

They said, in fact, by the time the drink has been processed and packaged, many of the ingredients in fruit that protect againsttumours have been lost, the Daily Mail reported.

The researchers wanted to establish how effective different fruits, vegetables and juices were at preventing the development of bowel cancer.

They examined the diets of 2,200 adults, who filled in a questionnaire detailing their daily eating habits. The team then tracked the participants for two years to see how many of them developed the disease.

Unsurprisingly they found that eating apples, sprouts, cauliflower or broccoli on a daily basis all reduced the likelihood. However, those who consumed lots of fruit juice had a higher risk.

The research found that those drinking more than three glasses a day were more likely to develop rectal cancer, a form of bowel cancer.

Scientists believe the high sugar content in juice may trigger certain tumours.

The Perth team also said that many things found in fruit which help protect against bowel cancer - including fibre, vitamin C and chemicals known as antioxidants - are lost during the juice's processing.

The findings were published in the journal of the American Dietetic Association.

Kelshi : Possible to be place of one of the oldest civilisation!!

I am from village Kelshi in Ratnagiri District. 

As a child I often visited the seashore near my village and spent hours and hours looking at - and sometime digging with my hands- into the sand to find bits and remains of human civilization (such as coins, potteries etc., raw bricks etc.)  We also witnessed the remains of houses and water wells.  These remains often surfaced as the sand was washed away by the Arabian Sea waves and were mostly found below the current sea level.  

I wondered how the water in the Arabian Sea went up in the past and was now going down washing a civilization lower than the Sea Level!!  My elder brother told me that it was possible a tsunami that washed away a civilization and I laughed at him. 

It was certainly like a mystery!  I still proudly retain some of those coins and pieces of pottery. 

If this article is true, we are sure to discover a great civilization older than the Indus???

I will be proud to show case some of the coins during any upcoming KCR event that I am having with me even in Riyadh.

Mohsin.

A civilisation as old as Indus valley? Published: Friday, May 27, 2011, 1:28 IST By DNA Correspondent | Place: Mumbai | Agency: DNA

Did the coastline of the Konkan, from Shrivardhan in Raigad to Vengurla in Sindhudurg, have human habitation around 8,000 years ago? Did that population have well-developed engineering skills? Was there a unique Konkan culture in existence in 6,000BC? The latest discovery in the field of archaeology, below the sea waters of Konkan coast, could answer these questions with a big resounding‘Yes!’ In what could turn out to be a major discovery,researchers have found a wall-like structure, which is 24km long, 2.7m in height, and around 2.5m in width. The structure shows uniformity in construction. “The structure is not continuous from Shrivardhan to Raigad, but it is uniform. It has been found 3m below the present sea level. Considering the uniformity of the structure, it is obvious that the structure is man-made,” said Dr Ashok Marathe, department of archaeology, Deccan College Postgraduate and Research Institute, Pune. This joint expedition carried out by Deccan College, Pune and Department of Science and Technology, Central Government, has been in progress since 2005. “We were actually studying the impacts of tsunami and earthquake on western coast when we first found this structure in Valneshwar,” said Marathe. However, the age of the structure was decided on the basis of sea level mapping. “There have been exhaustive studies about the sea water coming inside the land. Based on the calculations, experts from the National Institute of Oceanography (NIO) pegged the age of the wall at around 6,000 BC,” Marathe informed. The discovery has raised a number of questions, such as how these huge stones were brought to the shore? What was the purpose behind building this wall? If the date of the wall is accurate, then is it the same age as the Indus civilisation? Why have none of the researchers till date, found or made any mention of this civilisation? Marathe, who will be retiring in July 2011, has asked more people to try to find answers to these questions. In the wake of power projects coming up on Konkan’s coastline and the growing discontent, this discovery could prove vital. Marathe, though, displays little faith in the government.

Gravity Hill

Gravity Hill

A gravity hill, also known as a magnetic hill (and sometimes a mystery hill or a gravity road), is a place where the layout of the surrounding land produces the optical illusion that a very slight downhill slope appears to be an uphill slope. Thus, a car left out of gear will appear to be rolling uphill due to gravity.^[1]
There are hundreds of gravity hill locations around the world. See list of magnetic hills.
