Those who suffer this type of sudden onset headaches also complain of accompanying nausea, vomiting, and extreme sensitivity to light and sound.&nbsp;
Speaking of Cupping therapy, in this method special cups are placed on the skin which creates suction and acts as a type of deep-tissue massage. It is believed that these suction cups when placed on strategic acupressure points help stimulate the flow of energy.
Many studies have also supported the role of acupuncture in helping with migraines. Acupuncture produces natural substances in the body such as pain-relieving endorphins. It is considered as effective as prophylactic drug therapy for migraine and is safe.

Cheers, caffeine lovers! A few cups of coffee a day might keep death at bay

Drinking three cups of coffee a day could help you live longer, according to new research.

Here's some good news for all the coffee lovers out there! Your morning cup of coffee could help you live longer, according to new research. &nbsp; Data of more than 1,70,000 adults in the UK has revealed that those who drink between two and four cups of coffee each day, appear to live longer lives compared to those who don&rsquo;t sip java. The analysis was published in the journal of Internal Medicine.
For about seven years, the researchers tracked the coffee consumption and health of participants. They found that those who regularly drank 2 to 4 cups of coffee a day, regardless of added sugar, were 30% less likely to die in that time frame from any cause.&nbsp;
Over the years, research has also revealed a variety of health benefits of coffee, linking its consumption to a reduced risk of Type 2 diabetes, Parkinson&rsquo;s disease, depression and more.

Hitting the gym won’t help people deal with unhealthy eating habits, according to a new study.

New study proves exercise can’t compensate for a poor diet

Hitting the gym won&rsquo;t help people deal with unhealthy eating habits, according to a new study.

If you think you can counter the ill-effects of daily takeouts, and ordering out by hitting the gym regularly, we have some bad news for you! According to a new study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, exercise can&rsquo;t compensate for the adverse and long-term impact of unhealthy food on our health. The findings come from a 11-year-long study which assessed the diet patterns of 360,000 adults. According to the study, a &lsquo;bad&rsquo; or &lsquo;unhealthy&rsquo; diet was one comprising &ldquo;low fruit and vegetable intake, no fish, and lots of red meat, especially processed meat.&rdquo; The results suggested that the participants who engaged in high levels of physical activity while practicing a healthy diet had the lowest risks of death compared to their counterparts who were not only physically inactive but also had poor diets. Lead researcher of the study Melody Ding claimed that while many people may think that they could offset the impacts of a poor diet with high levels of exercise or offset the impacts of low physical activity with a high-quality diet, data has shown that this is not the case. Long story short, the study suggested exercise and a good diet go hand in hand, and balance is the key to a healthy life!

Is it time to let go of your favourite pillow?

It is a product and brand most associate with babies, the Johnson & Johnson baby talcum power, but it will soon be taken off the shelves globally as the company faces a legal battle on the components and its impact. The company faces about 38,000 lawsuits from consumers and their survivors claiming its talc products caused cancer due to contamination with asbestos, a known carcinogen. J&J though denies the allegations, saying decades of scientific testing and regulatory approvals have shown its talc to be safe and asbestos-free had stopped selling the product in the United States and Canada in 2020 itself. The health conglomerate also announced that going forward a 'commercial decision' was made to use cornstarch instead of talcum powder. Talcum powder has long been used in baby products because the mineral keeps skin dry and prevents diaper rash. The mines that produce the powder, however, can also yield asbestos, a mineral once used in products such as building insulation that researchers have linked to cancers. In one talc case, Johnson & Johnson was ordered to pay $4.69 billion to 22 plaintiffs in one of the largest personal-injury verdicts ever.

Emotional exhaustion: The feeling of deactivating all the social media platforms when things go down might not be depression, know what the psychotherapist has to say about it. 

Why do you feel like deactivating Instagram? Is it depression or emotional exhaustion?

The pattern of getting on and off on social media platforms when things go down in your life might not be depression but emotional exhaustion, here's what psychotherapist has to say about it.

Do you deactivate Instagram quite often? Here's what you need to know

When you feel overwhelmed in life and just go ahead with the option of deactivating Instagram, it might not be depression but emotional exhaustion; here's what you need to know about it.&nbsp;

Everytime you feel low or when things go down, do you feel like deactivating Instagram? Your go-to options are to isolate yourself, limit your interactions and prefer to take time away from social media. If yes, then that might not be depression but emotional exhaustion!
Emotional exhaustion happens when you extend yourself more often and these things take a toll on your mental health. It also happens when you feel overwhelmed by the things that are happening in your life.&nbsp;
Alaokika Motwane, Mumbai-based psychotherapist, said that stress has now itself become an epidemic. She further said that people have become used to the constant mix of adrenaline and cortisol because of the uncertainty that is happening within them and in the outside world.&nbsp;
Women are more likely to feel emotionally exhausted and this happens due to cultural conditioning. It is because time and again they have been suppressed and are shamed when they can't multitask in their daily life.
<h3>How to cope with emotional exhaustion?</h3>
According to the psychotherapist, our generation thrives on solutions but for this, there is no five-point solution that can quickly help you out. She said that there is a pattern of behaviour that needs to be read so that the underlying struggle with mental health issues can be dealt with and in this therapists can help you out.
So, next time when you feel overwhelmed and think of deactivating Instagram, book yourself a therapy!
