5 scientifically proven facts (NOT WANT TO HEAR)
- Exercising you will not help you lose weight
If you think that you can eat all the cakes today, practice tomorrow - and lose weight - you are wrong. Two recent studies have proven that you exercise will help you lose weight and magically melt all the cookies you ate the previous day.
Research has shown that our metabolism, which determines how our day can burn calories, decrease in daily exercise. Which means you should exercise to burn excess calories only slows down the process of burning excess calories. Conclusion: the faster you will lose weight if you eat less than if you exercise more. (However, regular exercise is important for overall health.)

night
Chronic exposure to artificial light at night is associated with an increased risk of breast cancer, obesity and depression, so that the TV, computer, cell phone, or any other device that stare until the early morning hours should be turned off at night.
Exposure to artificial light before bedtime interferes with the natural rhythm of the body, which leads to suppression of the hormone melatonin, which helps us fall asleep, according to scientists from the American Medical Association.

People who use tanning showed changes in the brain that are clearly visible with drug addiction. According to a study from May 2012 in the Journal of Addiction Biology, our brain can tell the difference between natural light and UV tanning beds.
A beautiful spray tan? Research suggests that even this seemingly safe alternative to tanning salons also risky, because the spray contains chemicals that cause genetic mutations in the cells of the body. There are still no studies that have confirmed all the harmful effects of sprays, although it is speculated that there are many.
- Think before you buy vitamin pills
vitamins
A recent study conducted on 200,000 people has shown that vitamin supplements do nothing to prolong life, but to actively increase the risk of dying.
This conclusion in 2010 was so amazing that researchers have done several studies. And each gave the same results: Vitamins create "apparent invulnerability," the authors wrote in the journal Psychological Science. To make it easier to explain, people who take vitamin supplements are the same as those who choose unhealthy hamburger next to a healthy summer salads.
- Sharing the bed with a dog or cat is a bad idea
cat
Sleeping with pets is a good way of getting the fever, meningitis, worms or other bacterial infections, according to a study published in February in 2011 in the journal Emerging Infectious Diseases.
The study gives the example of a man whose dog is licking his sleep early, which is why the man was diagnosed with meningitis and nine year old boy whose cat is picked up and transferred the plague is the owner while they slept in the same bed. The author, a professor of veterinary medicine at the University of California, poručije that regular visits to the vet can greatly reduce the risk of any diseases your pet, which is transferable to the owner.
