Treating your scalp the same way you treat your skin is one of the most crucial life lessons. This reasoning is supported by the fact that your scalp is composed of skin and functions similarly. Thus, throughout the winter, the scalp experiences the same level of skin dryness as the rest of our bodies. Dandruff, flaking, and irritation develop as a result of your head. Winter dandruff, in contrast to summer and monsoon flaking, is a direct result of the scalp being dry from the chilly air. Add to that the fact that you always keep your head covered to stay warm. This creates a comfortable, warm environment for dandruff-producing microorganisms on the scalp. You need to take care of dandruff as soon as you can since it may be very uncomfortable, especially when those bothersome white flakes appear on dark woolen winter clothing. Here are some suggestions to help you get rid of dandruff: 1. Neem with coconut oil. The moisturizing benefits of coconut oil may be well known to you. These qualities come from its excellent fatty acid and vitamin content. Wouldn't the ideal defense against dandruff be created if coconut oil and neem, which has antibacterial and antifungal qualities, were combined? 4 teaspoons of coconut oil should be added to 1 teaspoon of neem powder. Depending on how long your hair is, change these amounts. Read More : https://medium.com/@tribalblackoil/top-5-hair-masks-to-treat-winter-dandruff-2a03163bb4f2

The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) on Thursday (30th November) announced the launch of a new suicide surveillance system, bolstering its efforts to tackle emerging methods of suicide and clamp down on those seeking to sell dangerous products to vulnerable people. For now, the DHSC will work with the National Police Chiefs' Council to gather near to real-time data from across the country on deaths by suspected suicide by gender, age group and method. The data will be obtained from individual police forces in England and the government will get it within three months of a suspected suicide, the DHSC said in its release.

The UK government will lay legislation today (13 December 2023) to allow the General Medical Council (GMC) to begin the process of regulating medical associates to expand their roles in the NHS. This will support plans to reduce pressure on doctors and GPs and improve access for patients, the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) said. Physician associates (PAs) and anaesthesia associates (AAs) will have the same levels of regulatory oversight and accountability as doctors and other regulated healthcare professionals once the regulations come into force, which is expected at the end of 2024. The GMC will design and deliver detailed regulatory processes for registration, education, standards and fitness to practise for both professions.

Are you attempting to eat healthy in order to prepare for your summer beach body? When it comes to achieving optimal body composition, following a healthy diet can be challenging. It's very easy to eat too many calories while eating foods that society considers to be healthy. It's important to remember that calorie counting isn't the only way to lose weight, and it won't be a long-term strategy either. So, here are some practical suggestions for maintaining a healthy weight while also toning your muscles. 1. LEARN ABOUT THE PROCESS OF PROTEIN-RICH FOODS Protein-rich foods are the most effective at curbing hunger and are essential for maintaining a healthy weight and body composition. An added benefit of caloric restriction is that it triggers the body's catabolic process, which results in the loss of both lean muscle and fat. Having a lower metabolic rate is one of the main causes of rebound fat gain when you lose a lot of muscle. Taking in a lot of protein throughout the day has been shown to help counteract some muscle loss and keep your metabolism going strong. As a bonus, high-quality protein can help control blood sugar and insulin levels, reducing the desire for sweets.
