Cannabis use has risen with legalisation and Covid-19 lockdowns: UN report

Places across the world that have legalised cannabis appear to have increased its regular use, according to a &nbsp;UN report.&nbsp;

According to a recent UN report, Cannabis use has widely increased in countries that have legalised the drug. The regular intake of the drug also rose during the Covid-19 lockdowns, raising the risk of depression and suicide, the report added.&nbsp;
Various U.S states have legalised non-medical the use of cannabis including Washington and Colorado. Other countries including Canada have taken similar steps.&nbsp;
While cannabis has been the world&rsquo;s most widely used drug, the content of the drug is also getting stronger. As per the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) annual World Drug Report, roughly 284 million people or 5.6 per cent of the world&rsquo;s population consumed drugs such as heroin, cocaine and ecstasy in 2020. Of those, 209 million used cannabis.&nbsp;
The consumption of cannabis among teenagers has not changed much but the drug use has majorly increased among young adults, the report concluded.&nbsp;

Sitting for more than six hours daily can put you at high risk of heart disease: Study

Trade the chair for fresh air! Here's why sitting too much is bad for your health

People who sit for six to eight hours daily have 13 per cent higher risk for heart disease, early death, says a new study.

According to a study published &nbsp;in the journal Jama Cardiology, people who sit for six to eight hours a day have a 13 per cent higher risk of early death and cardiovascular disease. The risk went up to 20 per cent for those who sit for more than eight hours daily.&nbsp;
For the study, researchers analysed more than 1,00,000 people from 21 countries for a period of 11 years. The team found that participants who sat the most and were the least active had the highest risk of heart disease, up to 50% while those who sat the most but were also the most active had a significantly reduced risk of around 17%.
However, replacing half an hour of sitting with exercise can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease by two per cent, researchers concluded.&nbsp;

Work-life affecting your health? Tips to reclaim control

Here’s a list of things you can keep in mind if you’ve been feeling victimised by the endless rat-race that life may seem to be.


Long working hours affecting your health? Freight not! Here are a few tips that employees should follow in order to de-stress and take care of themselves.

If you're struggling to achieve a work-life balance, you're not alone. Understand how to better manage your time, detach from work and care for yourself. &nbsp;
A stressful work-life can harm you in more ways than you think, impacting both your mental and physical health. Here are a few tips that employees should follow in order to de-stress and take care of themselves.&nbsp;
Prioritise your health&nbsp;
A healthy lifestyle is essential to cope with stress and to achieving a work-life balance. Eat well, include physical activity in your daily routine and get enough sleep. &nbsp;
Set goals and priorities &nbsp;
Set achievable goals by implementing time-management strategies, analysing your to-do list and cut out tasks that have little or no value. Structuring your day can increase productivity at work, allowing you more free time to relax outside of work.
De-stress 
The anxiety and the panic of meeting deadlines gradually becomes a habit for corporate employees. It's important to practice deep breathing twice at least for 5 minutes while travelling to and back from work.
Make time for yourself 
Regularly set aside time for activities that you enjoy, such as practicing yoga, gardening or reading. Hobbies can help you relax, and take your mind off of work which helps you to recharge.
Seek professional help 
If your life is too chaotic to manage, talk to a mental health expert or a councilor. If you have access to an employee assistance program, take advantage of the available services.&nbsp;

Pregnancy loss or infertility can increase risk of stroke in women: Study

New research shows women who have had a miscarriage or stillbirth, have an increased risk of stroke in later life.&nbsp;

Women with a history of miscarriage or stillbirth have a higher risk of stroke in later life, a Queensland-led study has found.&nbsp;
For the study, the team analysed data of 6,20,000 women aged between 32 and 73 for a period of 11 years. Researchers found that the risk increased with each miscarriage or stillbirth.
As per the findings, more than 13,000 participants experienced a stroke, including 4,000 who died, during the study. Women who had miscarried once had a 7 per cent higher risk of strokes compared to those who had never experienced a miscarriage in pregnancy.
The risk was 26 per cent higher for a deadly stroke after two miscarriages. And after three or more miscarriages, the risk spiked by 82 per cent for a deadly stroke.

Actor Shenaz Treasury diagnosed with Prosopagnosia; Know all about this disorder

Actor Shenaz Treasury says she suffers from Prosopagnosia; a disorder that leads to an inability to recognize faces.

Actor Shenaz Treasury recently revealed that she has been diagnosed with prosopagnosia. Here's all you need to know about the disorder.&nbsp;

Actor Shenaz Treasury recently revealed on social media that she is suffering from Prosopagnosia. The actor explained in her post that the condition is a neurological disorder that prevents her from recognising faces.
Let's find out what this disorder is all about and how it affects a person's ability to function in their day-to-day lives.
What is Prosopagnosia?&nbsp;
According to doctors, Prosopagnosia or face blindness is a condition in which people are unable to recognise family members, partners or friends by their faces. &nbsp;
Normally, an individual can recognise and remember 5000 plus faces throughout their lifetime. However, people who suffer from this condition have difficulty recognising people's faces out of context. Patients use techniques such as voices and face shapes to identify people easily.&nbsp;
Causes of Prosopagnosia
Prosopagnosia can be acquired or hereditary. Acquired cases can result from ischemic stroke, traumatic brain injury and certain kinds of neuropsychiatric illnesses like Alzheimer's disease, depression and schizophrenia.&nbsp;
Treatment for Prosopagnosia
As of now, there is no specific treatment for the disorder but alternative techniques are taught to patients to identify people. If left undiagnosed, Prosopagnosia can lead to anxiety, depression, functional impairment and extreme social isolation.&nbsp;
