  1. Products that can help you eliminate excess calories while your body rests Losing weight is one of the most widespread challenges in today's society. In search of a healthier life, many people seek to reach their optimal weight. To achieve this, it is important to eat a healthy diet and lead an active lifestyle. A good exercise routine is essential to lead a lifestyle beneficial to our body. In addition, rest is a fundamental part, so we have to sleep the recommended hours to avoid getting irritable or sleepy. The key to losing weight is none other than living a healthy lifestyle, although there are some complementary tricks that can help us. Thus, you can drink the following drinks, which activate your metabolism while you sleep and, in addition, they are delicious! Chamomile infusion The chamomile infusion, widely used to combat stomach pain, is one of the best drinks that we can drink before going to bed because it is very easy to digest and, thanks to its antioxidant and purifying properties, contributes to cleaning the body. In addition, chamomile is known for its ability to help relax the body and help you fall asleep. Its high levels of glycine act as a muscle relaxant, which contributes to a better rest. Infusion of ginger and lemon Ginger and lemon, separately, activate metabolism, so the union of both ingredients results in an excellent drink to drink every night before going to bed. It is a good option to speed up our metabolism while we sleep while strengthening our immune system. To prepare this infusion you must add lemon juice and a few slices of fresh ginger to a cup of hot water. Let it rest for a few minutes and we would have our drink ready. Milk Although it is one of the most consumed drinks before going to sleep, perhaps not many people know that, despite facilitating rest due to its calcium and tryptophan content, milk also facilitates fat loss while sleeping. . This product contains casein, a nutritious protein that is slowly absorbed by the body, forcing the metabolism to remain active. It also helps prevent muscle loss. Kefir Kefir is a dairy product similar to liquid yogurt that comes from the fermentation of milk through a specific fungus. Its flavor is more sour than that of yogurt and contains high levels of probiotics that improve intestinal flora and nutrient absorption. A glass of this protein-rich product before going to bed will be an optimal food that will help us burn fat. Cranberry infusion Due to its properties, blueberries reduce blood glucose levels, preventing the body from storing sugars that could be converted into fat. These small berries have an exceptional nutritional value, in which its high content of antioxidant compounds stands out. To prepare it you must crush the leaves and the blueberries and place them in a teapot. Heat water until it boils and pour it into the kettle. Let stand ten minutes and strain the infusion with a strainer.

  2. The launch of the Mazda MX-30 has marked a turning point in the Hiroshima home. With its development they entered fully into electrification, the paradigm that will rewrite the history of the automotive sector. But also, they do it by entering their style, which has nothing to do with what their competitors wear. Thus, the MX-30 presents a series of peculiarities and characteristics that make it an exclusive as well as innovative product. The downside that perhaps could be put has to do with its autonomy. Still, when you understand its approach, the 200 kilometers it offers are justified. Also, we were all looking forward to the birth of the range extender version with a rotary generator. However, we have found an unexpected surprise in the form of a mild hybrid version: with all of you, we present to you the new Mazda MX-30 e-SKYACTIV-G. The technique of the Mazda MX-30 e-SKYACTIV-G is shared with the "3" Yes, yes, you have not misread: Mazda MX-30 e-SKYACTIV-G. This model debuted yesterday afternoon at an event called the Automobile Council that took place in Tokyo. As announced by the brand, this version is presented as part of a multi-solution strategy to apply a different type of energy in each region of the world. This is included in the "Sustainable Zoom-Zoom 2030 Declaration" and seeks to reduce CO2 emissions. And you will wonder how is the technique of the Mazda MX-30 e-SKYACTIV-G? The answer is simple and you already know it. Specifically, it makes use of the SKYACTIV-G 2.0 block, allied to the mild hybrid M HYBRID system. The electrical part is carried out by a 7 CV motor that is powered by a 24 V lithium ion battery with a 0.17 kWh capacity. To steal the least space, the firm's engineers have installed it under the rear seats. For now we do not know the final performance that this combination will offer. Mazda has limited itself to announcing that this powertrain will offer a smooth and quiet start in addition to offering a high-quality driving feel. All in all, and although we expected an electric version with a higher level of autonomy, this is the logical step. When we have more data we will tell you, because we still do not know if it will arrive, or not, in Europe.

  4. Eating this type of food therefore increases the risk of heart disease in old age. Researchers from the University of Colorado Boulder (United States) have shown that a compound produced in the intestine when eating red meat damages the arteries and, therefore, increases the risk of heart disease in old age. The study, published in the journal 'Hypertension of the American Heart Association', suggests that people can prevent or even reverse such an age-related decline through dietary changes and targeted therapies, such as with supplements nutritional. "Our work shows for the first time that this compound not only directly impairs artery function, but may also help explain the damage to the cardiovascular system that occurs naturally with age," the researchers explained. By eating a piece of steak or a plate of scrambled eggs the resident gut bacteria immediately go to work to break it down. As they metabolize the amino acids L-carnitine and choline, they produce a metabolic by-product called trimethylamine, which the liver converts to trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) and sends it through the bloodstream. Previous studies have shown that people with higher levels of TMAO in their blood are more than twice as likely to suffer a heart attack or stroke as well as die, although the reasons have not been known until now. Given this scenario, the researchers measured the blood and arterial health of 101 older adults and 22 young adults, discovering they found that TMAO levels increase significantly with age. This coincides with a previous study in mice that shows that the intestinal microbiome changes with age, generating more bacteria that help to produce TMAO. When the researchers fed TMAO directly to young mice, their blood vessels rapidly aged. And it is that, the 12-month-old mice (the human equivalent of about 35 years old) looked more like the 27-month-old mice (80 years old in people) after eating TMAO for several months. Preliminary data also shows that mice with higher levels of TMAO exhibit declines in learning and memory, suggesting that the compound may also play a role in age-related cognitive decline. On the other hand, old mice that ate a compound called dimethylbutanol (found in small amounts in olive oil, vinegar, and red wine) saw that their vascular dysfunction was reversing, so scientists believe this compound prevents the production of TMAO. "The more red meat you eat, the more you feed the bacteria that produce it. The study is an important advance because it sheds light on why our arteries erode with age, even in the healthiest of people," the researchers said. experts.

  5. Since its appearance, the Mazda CX-5 has been a best seller. The Japanese SUV has managed to conquer the hearts of the public by offering a very successful design, more than convincing quality and really high reliability. However, the number of all roads in the brand has been increasing and they have had to find a place. The proof is in the new CX-30, which gains a zero and is positioned between the small CX-3 and the CX-5. Well, to reorganize this structure of nomenclatures and models, Mazda could be thinking something. Some time ago we learned that they had registered in Europe all the declinations «CX-X» from number 10 to 90. The fact is that there is one that is raising rivers of ink in the last weeks. We refer to the CX-50, which could be the basis to cement the future of the SUV range of the house of Hiroshima. Is it true or not? The Mazda CX-5 could keep its name, but also receive a coupe version called the CX-50 According to several sources, including Spyder7, Mazda could use the CX-50 designation to replace the CX-5. Reviewing the US Patent and Trademark Office we have verified that the registration of this name has also been filed there by the brand. It took place last year, and coincidentally it is still pending adjudication. Therefore, they would be waiting to receive the approval to give, or not, the expected surprise. However, this theory could have another reading. If we review the positioning of the CX-3 and CX-30 we can see differences. In the first place, that one and the other militate in different segments, but also present different lines. The first is more "round" and the second seeks to offer a coupe imprint. Therefore, Mazda could propose this same strategy with the replacement of the CX-5, that is, offer two different versions. Thus, we would have the Mazda CX-5 and a second model with a more streamlined design called the CX-50. It would be a similar path to the one used by BMW with the X2, X4 and X6, doubling its offer depending on the audience to which they are directed. However, we will have to wait for news, because until 2021 or 2022 it does not touch a complete generational relay. It could be the right time, especially since the new SkyActiv platform and powertrains would debut.

  8. Aimed at 2.6 million young people The new image offers financial and non-financial products, including digital content and experiences. CaixaBank transforms imagin, the leading mobile-only bank in Spain among young people, into a digital platform dedicated to creating digital services for young people, financial and non-financial. The objective is to promote the growth and loyalty of younger clients, especially interested in using new technologies in their daily lives and in their future projects. The financial institution chaired by Jordi Gual and whose CEO is Gonzalo Gortázar has today presented the new stage of imagin, embodied in a groundbreaking corporate image, a new model of customer relations and an offer of three new mobile applications, which multiply the service proposal: imaginKids (aimed at children from 0 to 11 years old and very focused on financial education through games), imaginTeens (designed for adolescents from 12 to 17 years old, with content and services designed for young people who are beginning to need solutions for their first purchases and to start managing their personal finances) and imagin (with a complete financial and non-financial offer for users over 18 years of age), as reported by the entity. A 2.6 million user base The imagin business will be developed through imaginTech, a new digital business subsidiary 100% owned by CaixaBank that is chaired by Juan Antonio Alcaraz, CEO of the entity, and who has Benjamí Puigdevall as CEO. imagin starts its activity with 2.6 million clients, including both the users of the imaginBank mobile-only bank and the clients of the children's and youth segment of CaixaBank. The prospects for expanding the customer base in the short term are high, thanks to the growth in the offer of services and the creation of various levels of linkage, which, unlike traditional banks, do not necessarily imply registration as a financial customer. From mobile only bank to lifestyle community In the presentation, Puigdevall explained the keys to the new model: "imagin takes a step forward to evolve into something far beyond a financial app. From being the leading bank in the young segment, we became a user community, with a focus on lifestyle. In this way, our relationship with customers does not start with registering with a bank account, as with any bank, but when the user decides to register with the platform by registering with their email and By downloading the application, the client will no longer only come to imagin in search of financial products, but also because of their interest in valuable content and unique experiences. " For Benjamí Puigdevall, this radical transformation means reinforcing the commitment to innovation that has characterized imagin since its launch: "imagin first appeared in 2016 as the first mobile-only bank in Spain and the market immediately recognized it as an absolutely innovative project. During This time, Imagin has been the first bank to apply such advanced services as the customer service chatbot, at a time when there were practically no chatbots in the financial sector, or artificial intelligence to help customers finance their purchases. We believe the time has come to go one step further and bring innovation to the very heart of the business model. " From the user's point of view, the transformation of imagin is especially visible in three aspects: the offer of products, which includes financial and non-financial services and which may vary depending on the relationship of the client; the relationship model, given that to register, it will only be necessary to download the application and register with the email; and the range of mobile applications available, which has been expanded to accompany customers since childhood with three completely new apps (imaginKids, imaginTeens and imagin), reports the entity. All imagin applications are designed so that users are children and young people, which fundamentally determines both the user experience and the range of services and content, financial and non-financial. Hence, the imaginKids app, aimed at the youngest age group, is designed so that parents can decide when and how to use it, and it offers all its content for free, even if the family is not a CaixaBank customer. The main axis of imaginKids is financial education. The app uses gamification techniques, aimed at promoting savings and basic financial education concepts. For example, imaginKids has a digital challenge service, through which parents can set tasks for their children to complete, with the possibility of associating rewards within the same app (for example, unlocking episodes of their favorite series, new stickers, etc.) The app also offers entertainment resources ranging from drawing templates to mini-games, to digital "avatars" that users can customize by choosing a character, a costume, gestures or colors. Similarly, imaginBank has developed agreements with partners such as Super 3, Boing, Hiru3 and La Banda, who will collaborate by providing content and offering imaginKids users events and experiences. imaginTeens: young people's first shopping experiences The imaginTeens app for teens is also intended for direct use by young people, with resources, games and content adapted to the age group of 12 to 17 years. They include, for example, memes to share with parents or friends, craft ideas, puzzles or quizzes, as well as news and digital resources related to music or gaming and offers of experiences in collaboration with brands such as Rakuten, Meller or Original Gift. Much of this content can be enjoyed simply by registering as a user, without the need for further links. As for financial services, the basic modality has a free family pay management tool. Parents can periodically or punctually make a transfer to the "virtual piggy bank" that their children have in the application. The child can also open savings challenges to share with their relatives or, directly, ask for money for some purpose. The imaginTeens contractable financial offer consists of a prepaid card with activated parental control function so that parents can have full knowledge and control of the operations carried out by their child. Due to its characteristics, in no case could the minor make purchases for an amount greater than the balance of the prepaid card, but, even so, parents have the option of establishing weekly or monthly spending limits. In the case of young holders of an imagin checking account contracted by their parents, there is the option of linking to the imaginTeens application exclusively so that the teenager can see the balance, without the possibility of carrying out operations. imagin: accompanying the lifestyle and projects of young people From being a purely banking app, the imagin application, aimed at those over 18 years of age, becomes a platform that includes financial and non-financial services, such as digital content and experiences. Part of this offer is available to any user registered on the platform, regardless of their degree of banking. Specifically, depending on their degree of connection to imagin, three user profiles are distinguished.

  9. Subaru is not a brand with a high volume of sales in Europe. It is a niche brand, for a very particular client. However, the data shows that whoever buys a Subaru has a good chance of repeating the brand when it is time to renew their vehicle. At least in North America. According to the J.D. Power, the Japanese brand is the one with the highest loyalty index in the North American market. Data from the annual study says 60.5% of Subaru customers are loyal to the company when it comes time to change cars. That is, when they decide to sell or dispose of their Subaru model, they buy another car from the brand. Subaru's strength in North America is important. During the first half of 2020, which you already know has been very convulsed by the Covid-19, Subaru of America has sold more than 250,000 units. These sales have allowed it to position itself in that market with a 4.18% share, which is not bad at all. The brand says that, among other things, customers are attracted by the reliability and versatility of their products. Subaru is the first but what are the next ones? If we take a look at the list of the study, we find that it is very persecuted by another Japanese firm. Toyota has a loyalty index of 60.3%, that is, practically traced. Honda appears in third position, with 58.7%. Outside the podium, in fourth and fifth position in this ranking we have the American RAM and Ford, achieving rates of 57.3 and 54.3%. On the other hand, there are hardly any European brands in the top20 when we talk about general companies, with Volkswagen appearing in tenth position, MINI in sixteenth and Fiat in nineteenth. If we look at the automobile firms considered as luxurious or premium, we see that Lexus leads with 48%, closely followed by Mercedes with 47.8%. The third place within these more sophisticated brands is BMW, which reflects a brand loyalty rate of 45.1%.

  11. Study finds modifiable lifestyle factors, along with treatments, may be beneficial A new study, which analyzed 40 years of data from the Framingham Heart Study, has found an association between decreased rates of hip fractures and decreased smoking and excessive alcohol consumption. Although some experts attribute this change primarily to improved bone health treatments, a new study supported by the National Institutes of Health in the United States suggests other factors. These results, published in the journal 'JAMA Internal Medicine', indicate that modifiable lifestyle factors, along with treatments, may be beneficial for bone health. The analysis included information from 4,918 men and 5,634 women who participated in the Framingham Study. These individuals were followed by a first hip fracture between January 1, 1970 and December 31, 2010. Hip fracture rates, which were adjusted for age, decreased by 4.4 percent each year to throughout the 40 years of the study period. The decrease was observed in both men and women. In this group, the smoking rate decreased from 38 in the 1970s to 15 percent in the period from 2006 to 2010. During the same period, excessive alcohol consumption (defined as three or more drinks per day) fell from 7 to 4.5 percent. Rates of other hip fracture risk factors, such as low weight and early menopause, did not change during the study period. "This study points to the continuing need for public health interventions to address modifiable lifestyle factors, such as smoking and drinking, in addition to considering osteoporosis treatments in individuals at risk for hip fracture," explains the leader. from the investigation, Timothy Bhattacharyya. The Framingham Cardiac Study was started in 1948 to determine the factors that contribute to cardiovascular disease. The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute assumed responsibility for the project in 1949. Although many of the original participants have died, the study continues to examine two other generations of residents in and around Framingham, Massachusetts. The study authors note that since the data came exclusively from white individuals, it is unclear whether other po[CENSORED]tions could show a similar correlation based on lifestyle factors. Another limiting factor was that the Framingham participants had lower obesity rates than the national average. Furthermore, the study did not include measurements of bone mineral density, because those tests were not available until the 1990s.

  12. A few days ago we presented the first images of a model that, suspiciously, looked very much like the Ford Bronco. Obviously it could not be the American all-rounder since its official presentation took place days ago. Specifically, we reveal the advancement of the new model that the Chinese manufacturer Wey has been developing. And we say "has been developing" in quotes because of the similarities between one and the other. So many that it seems they have waited for the Blue Oval to present the Bronco to copy the basic lines of its design. Be that as it may, the arrival of the Wey Tank 300, which is what this model will finally be called, is official and we want to tell you what secrets it hides. Yes, because we must all recognize something important to the brand: its bravery in copying a concept that was not known if it would succeed. Although the Wey Tank 300 copies the Bronco and Wrangler, it adds its own design elements At an aesthetic level, we already told you about the main characteristics days ago. Not surprisingly, we will review what elements maintain a closer air with the Ford model. Thus, we have the optical groups in a circular format crossed by an LED strip that, in this case, are oriented towards the outside. Secondly, the verticality and width of the grille dominate the front, although this element is interspersed with the brand's logo and disguises it. But best of all, there are design elements that come straight from the Jeep Wrangler. The most striking has to do with the black plastic wheel arches. Still the best combination is in its bodywork: here the lines intermingle, presenting features of the Bronco and Wrangler in equal parts. And so far, because if we go inside, we have a cabin and cabin of our own design that will convince the most skeptical. The dashboard of the Wey Tank 300 is simple and minimalist cut. Both adjectives perfectly define its essence, but its creators have not wanted to fall into the simplistic either. For this, it integrates a double front screen that serves as the instrument panel and controls the infotainment system. The air vents are circular and mimic the design of aircraft turbines, such as the circular climate control. At a technical level, the only thing known about the Wey Tank 300 is that it is based on the Haval H9 platform. Therefore, it includes elements such as reduction gear, differential lock and all-wheel drive. For now, there are no mechanical details, although there are some equipment items. Among the most prominent are LED headlights, a 360-degree vision camera, hands-free access and start, or dual-zone automatic climate control.

  13. Effective ideas to introduce vegetables into our daily diet without even noticing The various health benefits of vegetables are known to everyone. They provide a large amount of nutrients, minerals, fiber and vitamins, among many other things, that contribute to improving the functioning of our body. That a diet rich in vegetables is essential to lead a healthy lifestyle is no secret. However, on many occasions it is difficult to resist temptations. Throughout the day, there are many advertising stimuli to which our brain is exposed and many times what we are offered is usually not the best option for our body. Therefore, the brain is in a constant struggle to choose between foods, for many, more appetizing, or healthier. Therefore, in this article we have put together a few tricks for your brain to fight against temptation with extra weapons. Add vegetables to your favorite dishes A good option to eat vegetables in a simple and tasty way. You can add vegetables to the dishes that you usually eat and that are to your liking. For example, if you usually cook meat lasagna, you can add carrot or a slice of zucchini. You can sprinkle the pasta with broccoli or add chopped squash to the Bolognese sauce. There are many formulas to make your favorite dishes healthier with vegetables. Pass the vegetables through the mixer Sometimes, what people do not like about the vegetable is the texture or the touch with the palate. To avoid this, a good idea may be to pass it through the mixer to eat it with a spoon. It is a simple way to get used to the flavor of, for example, pumpkin, and gradually add it to our diet. In the end, we may get used to the taste and end up making new ways to eat vegetables. The grill is a good option Grilled vegetables is a pleasant way to eat vegetables if they are not your favorite foods. It is a simple way to enjoy vegetables that does not require much preparation. If we are going to roast meat, we can also introduce some vegetables to accompany it. With cheese, everything goes better Although this trick should not be abused, we can also, at times, enjoy a vegetable dish with an irresistible cheese cream. The special touch that the cheese provides hides the flavor of the vegetables and makes it easier for people who do not like vegetables to eat this food that is so beneficial to health. Take advantage of eating vegetables in restaurants Eating away from home is usually a hobby with many followers in Spain. Not having to cook, preparing or clearing the table and washing all the cutlery is something that helps you be in a good mood. For this reason, we can use the good mood to ask the waiter for a rich and healthy dish that contains vegetables. It will be easier to eat something better elaborated than we could do in our kitchen. The name of the dish always helps Although it may seem like a minor thing, we eat with all five senses. Everything influences when it comes to tasting a meal, from taste to smell, through to texture or sound. Among all of them, we could include the name of the dish. And, it is not the same to eat a plate of artichokes, than a plate of artichokes in bloom with arbequina oil and a subtle lemon juice. The presentation of the dish and its name play a key role when facing the dish. A healthy pizza Pizza is usually the star dish of many children and not so children. Without a doubt, it is a simple food that is liked by a large part of the po[CENSORED]tion, which makes it an ideal dish to add vegetables to. Eggplant, cucumber or broccoli, among others, can go great on our pizza. Sauces are our friends Sauces and spices are great protagonists of kitchens. In a large number of dishes, the best is the sauce itself. Therefore, to trick our brains and eat more vegetables we can always play with the flavors and add some sauce of our liking to adapt the flavor of the vegetable to our liking. A dash of balsamic vinegar or honey and mustard juice can enhance the flavor of many dishes.

  14. If you do a little memory you must remember the flirtatious and special Bugatti Baby II. We talked about it a little over a year ago, since it came to the world to celebrate the 110th birthday of the French firm. His presentation was unexpected since we all had the development of a special version on one of his street models. Be that as it may, the expectation it raised was so great that those responsible for the brand have decided to go one step further. The Bugatti Baby II is, at the base, designed as a scale toy of the Type 35 Grand Prix of 1924. However, between the conceptual model and the one we present today there is a small difference: size. Yes, the first Baby II was designed for children up to 8 years old, that is, it had a 1:50 scale. In this case, the scale is 1:75, allowing children up to 14 years old (or more) to be accommodated inside. The Bugatti Baby II has gone from being a concept to being a real toy But be careful, it is not the only novelty that it incorporates ... The range will be made up of three finishes and depending on the chosen one, its manufacture and composition will be different. The Baby II Base One features a body made of composite materials as well as a 1.4 kWh capacity battery. Plus, enjoy two driving modes that essentially alter the power delivery and top speed they can reach. The Baby II Vitesse version features a body made of carbon fiber. In this case, the motor has more power and the battery has a capacity of 2.8 kWh. Finally there is the most exclusive and personal finish: the Pur Sang. The powertrain is the same as the Vitesse, but its body is made of hand-modeled aluminum. The procedure for its manufacture is so laborious that it requires more than 200 hours of work. At a technical and performance level there are no differences that we have at the time. Among the items to note, we cannot overlook the limited slip differential or replaceable battery pack. As a curiosity, mention that although it is a faithful replica of the Type 35 Grand Prix, the fuel pressure gauge now measures the battery capacity and the oil gauge shows the power used. Regarding production, it is still limited to only 500 units so if you want one for your children (or for yourself), you will have to be very fast. Of course, go preparing the portfolio, because its official price exceeds 30 thousand euros and we do not believe that the brand will apply many discounts.

  15. Exercise can help both to avoid boredom and to strengthen the immune system. Soon we will all enter a preventive quarantine and many of us will telework. And if you had an active life before the coronavirus arrived, used to go to the gym to do your exercise routine, go to yoga classes, or just loved running outdoors, chances are you are not at all comfortable in this new life in which the covid-19 has immersed us. But take it easy, you don't have to quarantine your training. There's a solution. Exercising does not require large spaces, but efficient routines; And many of those routines can be done perfectly in the home environment. If you put the following tips into practice, you will be able to keep your cardiorespiratory activity, your muscles and your immune system in shape, and, in addition, you will be able to reduce the levels of stress and anxiety that confinement brings. And in case you are not in the habit of exercising your body, this article is also for you, as it will make your new permanent life at home more bearable. Build Your Gym If, obviously, you do not have any type of discomfort, that is, you feel good, find a space inside your home where you can lie down. So you can exercise comfortably and with the proper technique. In this space, locate a mat or blanket on which you can lie comfortably. That is going to be your ‘gym’ for the next few weeks, so make it enjoyable for yourself and take it as a place that will give you well-being and make you feel better. The routines They are only 30 minutes a day, and surely your usual routine will have to vary, especially if you do not have the equipment of a gym, but the options to train from home are innumerable and very powerful in terms of effectiveness. Many gyms decided to do their group classes through their social media profiles, others have apps where you can see simpler routines to do at home and if you have a personalized trainer ask them to do a routine for you at home. Of course, on platforms like YouTube and Instagram you can also find videos with many options to exercise without using anything other than your body. The important thing is that you know how to choose a routine according to your physical goals and keep in mind that, although the routine changes, it is better to move a little than do nothing: that is the worst possible scenario. High intensity, an ally In the case of cardio routines, I assure you that these days your best ally will be high-intensity cardiovascular exercise, which is done in circuits of 3 to 4 exercises without stopping, for periods of 5 to 10 minutes and with breaks of between 1 and 2 minutes per lapse. This will allow you not only to supply that part of the workout, but to continue burning fat and calories for the next 48 hours of normal activity. It is just a matter of choosing those exercises that you can do in the space of your home that you chose to train. Be creative You may be wondering if you need to buy something for your exercise routine, because not everyone has bands or weights at home. But that's not a problem, because you can use almost anything like weights, from filled water bottles to reams of paper. But the best advice is to use the weight of your own body. There are many exercises for this. For example, in routines that allow you to work with jumps in the post and isometric exercises, which are those that put stress on the muscle in a stationary way: scissors, sustained squats, pushups (push-ups), planks. These exercises, while not involving a large range of motion, do require muscle and allow you to keep it in shape. Don't do it alone Invite your family members to stay as active as you are. Prevent them from training to manage the tension of the confinement and so that, through training, they can achieve the levels of concentration that telework requires. This health emergency that the coronavirus poses to our country and to the world is a favorable moment to experience the advantages of physical activity. Sitting for 15 days or more in front of a computer or television, watching news that is not exactly positive, makes us more vulnerable, stressful and stressful. And faced with that reality, exercise not only frees us from anguish but also keeps our immune system strong and gives us the mass and bone density that we all need to be healthy, especially older adults and growing children. These days of isolation are perfect to kick-start your creativity when it comes to training. Remember that, in addition to working the physical part, exercise also has a mental dimension because it strengthens our discipline and our will. Staying at home doesn't have to be tedious or boring. Exercise and a balanced and healthy diet will make this health emergency more bearable and you will be able to keep fit while you return to the gym. Don't do it alone Youtube. One of the easiest ways to build an exercise routine at home is using the multiple videos on the subject on this platform. There are many that use only body weight and are very effective as well as high intensity in tight spaces. PPPs are another possibility: most are paid, but they are not expensive and have the advantage of being more complete and structured programs, which will take you step by step and on a path of progress if, of course, it is constant. Gyms like Bodytech, for example, have apps for their members with multiple exercises without machines that are explained in detail in short videos. Instagramers are another way. In addition, almost all of them usually have their YouTube channel. A personal trainer who designs a training plan for you and explains the routines, although these days it will have to be by videoconference and digital media, is one of the best ideas. And it sure does. We all need to keep working.

  16. For a firm like Lamborghini, brand image is vital. Thanks to this intangible, it can be located in one of the most minority and exclusive market segments: that of supercars. This situation, which would be disastrous for another manufacturer, is a gold mine that continues to explode. The last example is the birth of the Lamborghini Essenza SCV12, a very sporty and radical model that we have been talking about for some time. Its technical development has been carried out by the engineers who work in the Squadra Corse department. For its part, the design is the work of Lamborghini Centro Stile, giving it an imprint that is spectacular. The combination of both aspects has resulted in the model with the most powerful V12 block in the history of the Italian firm. If you like it, don't miss a detail, because you would like to have one in your garage. The engine of the Lamborghini Essenza SCV12 delivers 830 hp The aesthetics of the Lamborghini Essenza SCV12 has been devised with a basic premise: aerodynamics. That is why it has technical solutions that we can only see in competition models. The aerodynamic package that it assembles includes elements such as a front splitter, a double-profile rear spoiler or various air intakes that give it an aerodynamic load of more than 1,200 kilos at 250 kilometers per hour. Nor can we ignore the decoration of your body. Here we find the Verde Silvans, Grigio Linx, Nero Aldebaran Gloss and Arancio California colors. To decorate them, they have placed the logos of, among other collaborators, Pertamina, Pirelli and Roger Dubuis. Behind the scenes, we have a minimalist interior inspired by competition. In it, the FIA carbon seats or the Formula 1-type sports steering wheel stand out. On a technical level, the Lamborghini Essenza SCV12 represents the maximum in the Italian house. Its chassis is made of carbon fiber helping to maintain the final weight at just over 1,300 kilos. All in all, the real secret to his rage lies under the hood, which we take for granted is the 6.5-liter V12 atmospheric aspirated block. Its power is 830 hp that reaches the ground directly through the rear axle. For its management, the brand has relied on a sequential transmission of six relationships signed by X-trac. As a curiosity, the push-rod suspension is mounted on the gearbox, since it serves as a structural part of the chassis. Another of the goodies of the Lamborghini Essenza SCV12 is in the exhaust tails, which have been created by Carpisto to reduce the pressure of the exhaust gases and improve performance. When will the Lamborghini Essenza SCV12 hit the market? The Essenza SCV12 arrives to replace the Diablo GTR or Miura Jota. Therefore, it is a machine designed to roll in a closed circuit, which is where its potential can best be squeezed. That being the case, it is not uncommon for him to mount 19-inch magnesium wheels front and 20-inch rear that open up a Brembo Motorsport brake kit. To dress them, they have relied on slick-type tires designed by Pirelli. In short, only 40 units will be manufactured at a price to be determined. Customers who get a unit will be part of an exclusive club that will provide special activities from 2021. Therefore, if you want one, break the pig because it will surely not be cheap.

  17. Bariatric and metabolic surgery manages to extend the life of obese patients by ten years, in addition to considerably improving their quality of life by managing to remit diseases such as hypertension, dyslipidemia or sleep apnea Changes in lifestyle, sedentary lifestyle, lack of physical exercise and the abandonment of the Mediterranean diet have led to an increase in overweight and obesity among the po[CENSORED]tion. The figures speak for themselves: Spain has 16.7% of its adult po[CENSORED]tion over 18 years of age with a Body Mass Index of over 30 kg / m2; the EU average is 15.9%. Also, from 2008 to 2014, this percentage increased by 1% in Spain. It is worth noting a fact that is alarming at best, and that is that since 1975 people with overweight and obesity have almost tripled worldwide. In 2016, more than 1.9 billion adults 18 years of age and over were overweight, of which more than 650 million were obese. The consequences of obesity, also called the 21st century epidemic, have associated health problems as serious as ischemic heart disease, high blood pressure, cardiovascular diseases, respiratory failure, osteoarthritis, the appearance of certain types of tumors and type 2 diabetes. , obese people have a three times higher risk of diabetes than people who are not obese. Diabetes, like obesity, can be cured with surgery, and the data is clear: More than 80% of obese patients who undergo bariatric or metabolic surgery stop being diabetic. Endoscopic surgery: intragastric balloon The intragastric balloon technique consists of a latex sphere filled with physiological serum that is placed endoscopically in the stomach under sedation and without the need for patient admission. "Its main effect", explains Dr. Juan Antonio Casellas, specialist in endoscopic techniques at the Obesity Unit in Alicante, "is the decrease in the motility of the stomach, reducing the emptying time after food intake and causing, in most of the cases, a feeling of early satiety during meals. " This technique is indicated in those patients who are overweight or called type I obesity, that is, their BMI is less than 29 and who have already tried to lose weight with diets previously and have not achieved results. According to different studies, the average loss of a balloon patient is between fourteen and sixteen kilos after six months. The specialist also warns that the weight loss achieved with an intragastric balloon is only permanent in those patients who have managed to change their eating and exercise habits in a sustained manner over time, without these two premises there is a high possibility of recovering the lost weight in less than three years, so Dr. Casellas recommends the continuous supervision of a team of professionals in order to maintain weight loss. Bariatric and metabolic surgery as a solution The disease that is most frequently associated with excess weight is type 2 diabetes, which appears in overweight and obese adults because the increase in body fat increases the resistance to the action of the insulin it produces. the pancreas, which has to work harder than necessary in these cases, and ends up running out. The association of type 2 diabetes with overweight-obesity is so consistent that it has led to the definition of the concept of diabetes. Bariatric and metabolic surgery prolongs the life of obese patients by ten years, in addition to considerably improving their quality of life by managing to remit diseases such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension or dyslipidemia, and decrease the risk of developing tumors, especially colon or breast, according to Dr. Carlos Sala, specialist of the Obesity Unit of the Quirónsalud Hospitals Alicante and Valencia. Among the techniques that have been most effective and safe to date are tubular gastrectomy and gastric bypass. "Both methods have already proven low mortality, a reduced number of complications and high efficacy in solving diabetes and associated diseases," says the doctor. These interventions are performed laparoscopically, using minimally invasive surgery, which reduces pain and possible complications. The patient is prepared to leave the hospital 48 hours after the intervention. Both vertical laparoscopic gastrectomy and laparoscopic gastric bypass are effective against diabetes, which remits in 80-90% of patients, improving in the remaining 20%. however, bypass seems more effective against hypertension and dyslipidemia. both techniques also facilitate weight loss. Currently the best and most promising is vertical laparoscopic gastrectomy or gastric tube, which reduces the volume of intake and also causes a metabolic effect correcting diabetes. Since 2014 it is the most widely performed technique in the world. It is very physiological because it does not produce malabsorption, avoiding nutritional deficits. It is indicated in patients with BMI between 35 and 45, with mild comorbidities, and with ease for dietary compliance. in patients with gastroesophageal reflux (heartburn) and severe esophagitis, we preferably recommend bypass because it also corrects it. In addition to reducing the volume of intake, they associate controlled malabsorption. The best and most accepted of all bariatric techniques against morbid obesity is laparoscopic gastric bypass. It is considered the Gold Standard or Gold Standard Technique against which the other techniques are compared. It is particularly recommended in candy-eating patients, in patients with gastroesophageal reflux and esophagitis (heartburn), and in patients with Metabolic Syndrome. These types of techniques are especially indicated in the treatment of patients with a body mass index greater than 35 or even if it is lower but causes associated serious diseases, such as diabetes with poor metabolic control, high blood pressure, dyslipidemia or obstructive apnea syndrome. of the dream. These methods help reduce between 70-80% of the excess weight of patients with obesity and offer highly satisfactory results in patients with type 2 diabetes, allowing them to completely abandon their medication, and preventing the appearance of any type associated disease.

  18. Maserati is one of the most luxurious and exclusive firms of all those that form the premium sphere in the automotive sector. True, its sales level should be higher, but if the FCA Group knows how to exploit this position, it can find its rightful place. All in all, the trident house is a specialist in creating high performance versions and sporty aesthetics to cheer up its faithful. One of the most acclaimed is the Trophy family. The last model to wear this badge was the Levante all-rounder and, things as they are, their sales improved. Now it is time to improve the lineage and, if the teaser that the brand has published does not deceive us, expand it with new models. If you want to know what they are up to, pay attention, because they are also immersed in a renewal of the mechanical range that will bring us great surprises. Maserati will present the new Trophy range in August If everything goes according to plan, the debut of the renewed Trophy family will take place in a matter of days. It will be on August 10 when we know the news that this version experiences, but it seems that there will be more surprises. In the teaser the Ghibli and Quattroporte appear, two models that until now had not enjoyed such a finish. Therefore, the trident house would be thinking of expanding the family to attract a greater number of clients. At the moment it is all we know, although with the arrival of this image the rumor-making machine has got down to business. Until now, the Levante Trophy used the 3.8-liter V8 block of Ferrari origin. However, with the breakdown of their collaboration agreement, they will have to house another drive unit under their hood. In this case, it is speculated with a new 4.0-liter V8 of its own development. If we delve a little deeper into the rumors, we could announce even the performance it would have from this new engine. Apparently, this would reach 440 kW (600 hp) although we do not know if it is the base power or if it will be the maximum and below there will be other alternatives. All in all, the presentation is only days away, although we are convinced that before that we will have new data. That is sure.

  19. Some meals can cause us not to sleep or it costs us more to fall asleep Today, society is increasingly aware of the importance of leading a healthy lifestyle. Being physically active during the week, respecting sleep schedules and eating a varied and healthy diet is something that many people propose. Eating healthy, low-fat foods that contain the nutrients that our body needs is essential to get the most out of our body. However, many people who set out to acquire beneficial habits and eat a healthy diet do not know certain aspects that make them make some mistakes. For example, not indulging in a little whim from time to time can make following the diet for a long period of time tiring and we end up quitting. Another of the most common mistakes is that of the food eaten at dinner. First of all, we must remember that we must ensure that dinner is two hours before going to sleep. It is also important not to forget that the intake of a food at 10:00 am and at 9:00 pm fattens exactly the same. However, there are foods that we must avoid at night for the sake of our digestion and to get a good rest, something essential to be able to enjoy 100% of our day to day. Fruits that contain a lot of water will not help us Not a few people believe that eating fruit is something light and beneficial for the body. And yes, they are right. The negative part is that if we eat fruit with a lot of water such as melon, watermelon, pineapple, etc. it can happen to us that throughout the night we have to get up several times to the service. Being diuretics, these foods will make us eliminate liquids, something that is not negative, but that will reveal us at dawn. Therefore, it is not the best option if we have to get up early the next day. Red meat will make our digestion heavier The high amount of protein contained in red meat makes it difficult for our body to digest it more. Not to mention that Health recommends not to take this food more than twice a week and even less processed meat. If we seek to supply our body with protein, we can obtain it from other foods, such as fish. Pasta is not a good option Possibly it is known to all that pasta is not a good companion for the night. But, despite everything, many people turn to it when they get home tired, for its simple elaboration. In addition, since we hardly dirty utensils for its preparation, it is a very comfortable meal for before bed. But, its high level of carbohydrates makes this food difficult to eat. The same goes for bread. If we still want to have delicious spaghetti or macaroni for dinner, we can opt for whole grains. Chocolate will make it difficult for us to sleep Without a doubt, chocolate is one of the most tempting foods. Finishing dinner with a piece of chocolate is usually a very appetizing custom, but not recommended. If we avoid drinking coffee at night to fall asleep, we should do the same with this food. And is that chocolate contains caffeine and other stimulants such as theobrine, which causes an increase in heart rate and makes it difficult for us to relax. Mushrooms and mushrooms can give us the night Despite the fact that mushrooms are a very complete food, we must consume them in small quantities, even more so if we do it before going to bed. And, this food is very indigestible. If we consume too much, we may find it difficult to fall asleep. But neither should we be alarmed. For a few mushrooms that we add to a salad, nothing will happen.

  20. The Mercedes-Benz Citan was one of the great surprises that the Stuttgart house gave at the beginning of the last decade. This model was born as a result of the collaboration agreement that Daimler AG signed with the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance. In this way, the Gauls were guaranteed a partner who put part of the capital to give life to the Renault Kangoo. Furthermore, the Germans could jump right into a segment that was unknown to them. This collaboration agreement was losing strength over time and we all feared for the new Citan. However, this section seems to be the only one that remains strong, because they have worked together to shape it. However, we did not expect to find the surprise that comes these days: as a result of this work a new star will be born: the Mercedes-Benz T-Class, the playful and adventurous sister of the Citan. The Mercedes-Benz T-Class wants to be an alternative to the Berlingo and Rifter The last time Mercedes-Benz did an experiment and created a new Class was with the "R". The result was not as successful as they expected, as it disappeared from the market without making much noise. Now, they take advantage of the pull that the Citroën Berlingo or Peugeot Rifter has to expand the Citan range. In this way, they will have a version intended to transport goods and another to serve a broader and more adventurous audience. To announce the birth of the Mercedes-Benz T-Class, the German firm has released a teaser. In it we can only see the basic lines that define the limits of its bodywork and some tension line located on the side. We are aware that we are dealing with a mere sketch, but everything indicates that you will enjoy marked wheel arches. Maybe they are targeting crossover fashion offering off road aesthetics? “The T-Class will meet the needs of families and leisure-oriented people at an attractive value for money. It offers a large amount of space and is suitable for a variety of different uses, including passenger transportation as a reference within shared services, all without compromising comfort. Wide-opening sliding doors on the left and right sides of the vehicle, for example, allow easy and comfortable access to the interior » The new Mercedes-Benz T-Class is scheduled to hit the market in the first half of 2022. There is still a long time to go, but we are sure we will have new information and more data soon. The thing is to know how far it will differ from its Renault brother and if it will benefit from all the benefits of its platform, such as the 100 percent electric version.

  21. Following a Mediterranean diet and eating meals at the correct times influences health and weight Today's society operates at a dizzying pace that forces many citizens to plan strategies to get to the end of the day with all tasks completed. Thus, people are forced to perform their daily duties quickly and biological needs are sometimes relegated to the background. All these factors negatively affect our health causing different problems. The circadian system, a kind of internal clock, can be affected by disruptions caused by our lifestyle and lead to various diseases. This deregulation also has a certain impact on the effect produced by ingested food, something that mitigates chronic nutrition. The Spanish Nutrition Foundation (FEN) explains that chronic nutrition is "the discipline that consists in respecting the body's natural rhythm and eating food when the body is more prepared to assimilate it." The changes in this kind of clock that our body possesses "condition the effect that food produces according to the time of day that we consume it." Importance has always been attached to the type of food we eat and the energy and nutrients we provide to our bodies. But, the time of day when the food is eaten has been more unnoticed until a few years ago. However, several studies show the relationship that exists between meal times and the predisposition to suffer certain diseases, such as obesity, diabetes, cancer or even premature aging. "Circadian control of cardiovascular function, of the hormones involved in metabolism, such as insulin, glucagon, growth hormone and cortisol, is well known," says the entity. The usual times in Spain do not favor the correct maintenance of circadian rhythms, since "people usually eat and eat late, they are times that are not beneficial for the correct hormonal secretion, which poses a health risk," warns the FEN . However, not all is bad news. Spain has an advantage: the Mediterranean diet. If we also add the practice of physical activity, a quality sleep, if we avoid high levels of stress and enjoy nature, we will improve our quality of life. Another benefit of chrononutrition is its usefulness for people who want to lose weight, since it is a useful tool to lose weight more effectively. However, Spanish customs also do not contribute to weight loss. In fact, "a study carried out by Marta Garaulet in 2013 shows how eating in Spain after three in the afternoon means less weight loss compared to those who ate before three, this effect being independent of caloric intake", informs the Spanish Nutrition Foundation.

  22. The Peugeot 3008 is one of the heavyweights within the C-SUV segment in Europe. The PSA Group had good judgment when it gave the green light to this second generation and therefore the development of the third installment will be reviewed with a magnifying glass. We told him some secrets a few days ago, as there are already rumors that point to where his evolution will go. But while it arrives and no, we are going to tell you what plans they have to keep the current one attractive. The arrival to the market of the Peugeot 3008 took place in 2017. Today its commercial journey is very satisfactory, but its main rivals have been updated. This forces the Gallic consortium to authorize a face lift that improves everything that has been overcome. The aesthetics, despite being modern and sporty, will also be reviewed and, if this filtration is good, it will evolve to a new level. The Peugeot 3008 will match its aesthetics to that of the new 508 Thanks to the guys from Cochespias we have had access to a series of snapshots. They are of low quality, but in them we can see how the Peugeot design team applies certain changes to the front of the 3008. In it, we can see some optical groups similar to those that premiered the last installment of the 508. They will no longer be broken in the central area and the LED daytime running light will become embodied by two large fangs. The grill and the bumper are also under review, although compared to the previous ones its evolution is more restrained. We must emphasize that the air inlets are more generous, including two sides that provide strength to the set. Finally, we cannot overlook a detail: the number "3008" will be located on the grill, following the path marked by the last 508 and 208. Another aspect that will evolve in the renewed Peugeot 3008 is its interior. The basic design lines will not change, although it will adopt the latest evolution of the i-Cockpit system. Where there will be changes is in size and quality of the screens available for the instrument cluster and infotainment system. The rest of the elements seem to remain as we know them, although there could be more changes that are not yet appreciated. We will have to wait for Peugeot to rule on it, either confirming the evolution or denying it by presenting other material. In any case, it gives us in the nose that this is the good one, so it will not take us long to have fresh and official information, which is also important.
