7 Reasons Why You’re Not A Millionaire



If you’re not a millionaire, don’t give up hope that you will become one someday. Take note of the reasons you aren’t a millionaire and resolve to make changes that will make a million dollars obtainable, even for the average person.

1. You’re Not Your Own Boss

Although there’s no guarantee that self-employment will earn you a million dollars, it’s really unlikely that working for someone else will get you there either. There are very few jobs that pay million dollar salaries.

Don’t quit your day job tomorrow to launch a business, however. Instead, consider keeping your day job while you start a business on the side. You’ll have the security of your current salary along with an opportunity to create a business where you can earn extra cash.

2. You Avoid Taking Risks

People don’t become millionaires without taking any risks. Taking a risk doesn’t mean you need to invest all your money into a single investment or that you need to gamble earnings foolishly.

However, taking calculated risks is often part of good money management. No one gets rich on the interest they earn from the bank. Instead, millionaires know how to invest their money wisely.

3. You Never Act on Your Good Ideas

It’s one thing to come up with million dollar ideas, but a completely different thing to act on them. If you are more a dreamer who never puts his money where his mouth is, you’ll never get rich. Millionaires don’t sit around and watch others advance in life. They take action to help them reach their goals.

4. You Don’t Manage Your Money Wisely

The average person has the potential to become a millionaire in today’s world. Sound investments, a solid budget, and clear goals can mean that a person who earns an average salary can become a millionaire by retirement.

If you don’t manage your money wisely now, however, it’s unlikely that you’ll be able to handle a million dollars with good sense. Establish a budget and create goals for yourself to help you save money now.

5. You Don’t Set Clear Goals for Yourself

People who don’t have clear goals aren’t going to make smart money decisions. You need goals to help you save money and invest wisely.

Create goals, such as getting out of debt or saving up for a vacation home. Creating goals will help you determine whether or not you should spend your money on other things that come up in the meantime. If you’re saving with a specific goal in mind, it’s much easier to say no to tempting opportunities to spend money.

6. You Don’t Put in Enough Time, Effort, and Energy

No one makes a million dollars by watching TV or sleeping 12 hours a night. Unless you’re lucky enough to win the lottery or inherit a windfall, becoming a millionaire takes hard work.

Millionaires consider the time and energy they put into a project to be an investment. They understand they won’t get immediate results but are willing to put in the hard work it takes to see the fruits of their labor. Learn how to manage your time wisely so you can become more productive with your efforts.

7.  You Aren’t Networking with the Right People

You won’t become successful in life if you spend time with lazy people who aren’t interested in managing their money wisely. However, if you surround yourself with energetic, successful people, it will rub off on you.

Develop relationships with successful people in your community. Look for people who can mentor you in your efforts to manage your finances, invest wisely, or build a business. Spending time with others who share your goals can help fuel your passion and efforts to become a successful millionaire.

The Best Network Marketing Company

Every day, dozens of people ask me what I think is a good company or if I would review one they are looking at. I am neutral and don't make recommendations like that, but let me give you a good basic criteria for picking a home in the Network Marketing Profession:



1. The company ownership. I've found the CEO and/or owner is the most important factor in any business. If you have a good one with a good mind and good heart, that will solve almost any problem. A good leader will always find a way to create a great opportunity for you. If you have a bad leader, it doesn't matter how good the product or compensation plan is, they will find a way to mess it up

2. The product. Is there a need for the product? Does the company's product meet that need? Is it competitively priced in the marketplace? Is there enough margin so the field and the company can thrive long term? Most of all, do you LOVE IT? If you don't love it, you shouldn't do it.

3. The financial opportunity. I don't think one comp plan is vastly superior to another, even though everyone likes to say there plan is best. There are dominant companies with breakaway plans, Uni-level plans, Binary plans, even forced Matrix plans. Today everyone seems to be a hybrid of all of the above. See if other people in the company are enjoying the level of success that you are looking for. If they are, then you should be fine.

4. Support structure. This is less important for strong leaders who can create their own culture, systems, training, events and tools, but for the lesser experienced, a good solid support system is very important. Are there good tools available? Are there events you can plug into? Is there a good communication platform that will keep you in the loop? If you've followed me for some time, you'll know I don't think your upline is a factor in your long-term success. You should always consider yourself front-line to the company, at least in your mind, and act accordingly.

5. Timing. Yes timing is important, but it's not the only factor. On one side you'll have stability with mature companies. On the other side you have the newness and excitement of a new company. I can make a good case for both.

EVERY company has problems, challenges and faults. Every single one. You won't find a perfect company out there. Some people get frustrated with that, switch companies and find out they traded one set of problems for another.

I will tell you this, I have a unique view of our profession and get to work with a lot of different companies around the world. Overall, I've never witnessed a better time to get involved and go to work in the Network Marketing Profession than right now.

4 Reasons Nigerians Run Away From Network Marketing Business

At the mention of Network Marketing business lots of Nigerians flee. Their running away could be as a result of bad experiences or wrong information and mis-information about the business.
I will be sharing in this thread 3 REASONS Nigerians missed in the Network marketing business and how it is the best investment you can ever put your money into in life.

1. Network Marketing is all about HAWKING DRUGS:
2. They tried selling to Nigerians who are not Health Conscious but Wealth Conscious
3. Dealing With Rejection in Network Marketing
4. They don't work as a team. Everyone is working independently and selfishly striving to outdo each other

1. Network Marketing is all about HAWKING DRUGS
Network Marketing is far away from anything like selling or hawking drugs. Nigerians who started this business did so on a wrong note. I guess they started the way they did based on our get rich quick mentality and short time perspectives in planning. Network Marketing Business is not about buying and selling products, because selling products will not get you rich, as the profit margin is very minimal. NETWORK MARKETING IS ALL ABOUT YOUR SOCIAL CAPITAL- WHAT IS SOCIAL CAPITAL AND WHAT DO YOU DO WITH YOURS :
SOCIAL CAPITAL is the money that exist in the pockets of your social circle, the question is, what do you do with that money? Do you guys just go clubbing or hanging out in joints or smoking cigarettes? Network Marketing harness the power of your social capital to provide an ideal PLAN B stream of income for you. Network Marketing helps you and your Social Circle to work together to build a fortune you can enjoy at a later age.
Network Marketing Company according to Harvard Business school should produce wide range of repetitive ordered products , so for those of us that has been mislead the business is about drugs, please be better informed. Most of those products that looks like drugs are actually foods compressed into tablets, caplet, capsules and syrups as the case may be. So what most of these products do is to supplement the nutrients that are either absent or deficient in the food we consume especially in a age of synthetic food.

2. They tried selling to Nigerians who are not Health Conscious but Wealth Conscious

That Nigerians are not health conscious is stating the obvious. It is evident in the way and manner we handle our immediate environment.It is only in Nigeria that people will leave the garbage bin to drop and litter refuse in water drainage or worst still litter roads with refuse. Nigerians can defecate anywhere they deem convenient anytime. Nigerians hardly visit Doctors for medical check-ups unless they are quarter-to-die or have turned vegetable.
The fall out of the above explanation is further ignorance about organic and in-organic products. Most of the supplements produced by these companies are usually expensive because they are products extracted from nature.
Let's use a simple example, imagine you sell different types of drinks. You tell a Nigerian, Drink A has no label, it contains 25 cubes of sugar and is sold for N 100 and DRINK B is from XYZ company, it's fresh natural juice, squeezed from the source and is organic, promotes good health, and the cost is N 200, which one will a typical Nigeria go for? Your guess is as good as mine. NOTE: It can work in other developed countries but in Nigeria, it's better you don't focus on buying and selling

3. Dealing With Rejection in Network Marketing
Let's face it. You are going to come across some rejection in your network marketing business. But dealing with rejection is simply a state of mind. It's actually a myth. The situation after someone told you they were not interested is the same afterward.
Before you contacted them, you did not have them as a business partner and after you contacted them, you did not. So your situation stayed the same. It did not get worse. When you look at it this way, you haven't really lost anything, now, have you?

I love this quote by Earl E. Graves:
"We keep going back, stronger, not weaker, because we will not allow rejection to beat us down. It will only strengthen our resolve. To be successful there is no other way."

Here are some famous rejections that may help you in dealing with rejection: After 130 rejections, the "Chicken Soup For The Soul" manuscript was published and went on to sell 8 million copies.
Colonel Harlan Sanders rejected rejection over 300 times and there are now 11,000 Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurants in 80 countries around the world.

My all time favorite famous rejection is the following:
John Creasy, a British mystery novelist, received 743 rejection slips before he sold his first book! Over the next 40 years, he went on to publish 562 full length books! Wow, 743 rejections until he achieved his goal! Imagine that! And now look at how successful he has become.
Dealing with rejection becomes easier when you know others have gone through it as well and have come out on the other side, knowing that nothing will stop them from achieving what they want.
"Never give up on your dream-Perseverance is all important. If you don't have the desire and the belief in yourself to keep trying after you've been told you should quit, you'll never make it." -Tawni O'Dell

Food for thought: I say Network Marketing is the best thing that capitalism has produced because you now own your own economy. And in Nigeria I have colleagues who are earning over 3.6m in network marketing monthly in less than a year through focus and deliberate work and so many other Nigerians who hardly share their financial or earning from Network marketing. So don't allow anybody mis-inform you because in my team I have produced more than 3 millionaires who earn in dollars weekly and that's the greatest satisfaction I get apart from my earning because Network Marketing have given me the privilege to power many family financially and we are happy and better friends and partners in success today. .

(News:)
“The NBS estimates that Nigeria’s population grew by 3.2 per cent in 2011, from 159.3 million people in 2010 to 164.4 million in 2011, reflecting rapid population growth. In 2011, Nigeria’s unemployment rose to 23.9 per cent compared with 21.1 per cent in 2010.”

It said the labour force swelled by 2.1 million to 67,256,090 people, with just 51,224,115 persons employed, leaving 16,074,205 people without work.

My Best financial advice to anyone is to join a good Network Marketing with a product or service that will sell even if it was not in Network Marketing.

Cayenne Pepper Alias Chilli Pepper

Cayenne pepper is simply Chilli Pepper and is common in Nigeria market mostly sold in the market by the Northerners. I will be attaching the picture but before that its an amazing pepper and I will like to share some of the health benefits: 

Cayenne stimulates digestion and muscle movement in the intestines, which helps restore deficient digestive secretions and aids absorption of food nutrients. (Stomach acid tends to decline with age, and some cases of poor digestion are related to a lack of this acid.)

Cayenne also stimulates circulation and blood flow to the peripheral areas of the body. Because it stimulates digestion and circulation, cayenne is often added to a wide variety of herbal remedies; it improves the absorption and circulation of the other herbs throughout the body.

Have you ever gone after the chips and salsa with gusto and then felt flushed and drippy in the nose? Cayenne warms the body and stimulates the release of mucus from the respiratory passages. Anyone who has eaten cayenne knows that hot peppers can clear the sinuses and cause sweating.

Cayenne actually can raise the body temperature a bit, as it stimulates circulation and blood flow to the skin. An herb such as cayenne or ginger that promotes fever and sweating is considered to have a diaphoretic (sweat-inducing) action. This action can help reduce fevers and relieve such the congestion of colds and sinusitis.

Cayenne has become a popular home treatment for mild high blood pressure and high blood cholesterol levels. Cayenne preparations prevent platelets from clumping together and accumulating in the blood, allowing the blood to flow more easily. Since it is thought to help improve circulation, it's often used by those who have cold hands and feet.

You can use cayenne peppers topically as a pain-relieving muscle rub and joint liniment. The source of the heat is capsaicin, the fiery phenolic resin found in most hot peppers. Capsaicin causes nerve endings to release a chemical known as substance P. Substance P transmits pain signals from the body back to the brain.

When capsaicin causes substance P to flood out of the cells, you experience a sensation of warmth or even extreme heat. When the nerve endings have lost all of their substance P, no pain signals can be transmitted to the brain until the nerve endings accumulate more substance P. For this reason, topical cayenne pepper products are popular for the treatment of arthritis, bursitis, and for temporary relief of pain from psoriasis, herpes zoster, and neuralgia (nerve pain). These cayenne preparations are most appropriate for long-standing chronic conditions, not acute inflammations.

Cayenne often is found in diet and weight-loss formulas. But can eating hot peppers really help you lose weight? Probably not, but cayenne may support your diet and exercise efforts. Because it aids in digestion and absorption of nutrients, cayenne can reduce excess appetite that is due to malabsorption, a common condition in overweight people.

16 Benefits of Lemon You May Not Know About

Bright, flavorful, and juicy; lemons are the most popular citrus fruit in the world. From Indian Ayurveda, to Italian cuisine (where lemons are practically a culture themselves), lemons are used all across the world to enhance the flavor of food, soothe a sore throat, and even cure certain diseases. Lemons are rich in many nutrients, such as Vitamin C, pectin, flavonoid antioxidants, B-vitamins, potassium and calcium. It’s no wonder these little yellow fruits have so many different uses! Below you’ll find several benefits of lemons you may not know about that can make you healthier, improve your appearance and simply make certain tasks easier.

Balance Your Body’s pH

According to the Ayurveda philosophy, we should always start our day by aligning our body with nature’s rhythms. This includes restoring the pH balance in our bodies which often becomes acidic due to the stresses of modern life: junk food, pollution, lack of exercise and other toxins. It is important to keep the body slightly alkaline to prevent illnesses and chronic diseases like as cancer. Although lemons are indeed acidic, the nutrient content found in lemons is alkaline-forming. Lemons are one of the most alkaline forming foods around, which is why they are great for alleviating a number of health problems. Kick-start your day with a morning ritual of drinking a cup of lukewarm water with half a lemon squeezed in.

Relieve Indigestion and Constipation

Lemons are little antibacterial powerhouses. Their bacteria-fighting properties destroy bad bacteria and allow good bacteria to flourish in the body, which can relieve indigestion and constipation. Sipping a warm glass of water mixed with the juice of one lemon can stimulate peristalsis, as well as the production of saliva and stomach acids that start the digestion process.

Lose Weight Faster

If you’re on a diet, lemons can be your best ally. Several Hollywood starlets swear by the Lemonade Diet when they need to lose weight fast. Lemons aid with weight loss in several ways:
  • Pectin, a type of soluble fiber found in lemons, can help you feel fuller and eat less. Drinking a cup of hot tea with half a lemon squeezed in before meals is a great way to prevent the overeating.
  • Pectin also works double duty to slow the rate of glucose or sugar absorption in the body, thus preventing blood sugar spikes that are common to Type 2 Diabetes.
  • As an added bonus, lemon juice also happens to be a natural diuretic! This means it helps the body flush out excess water weight through increased urination. Less water weight means less bloating and puffiness, so you look slimmer and fit into your jeans better.
  • If you want to quickly shed some pounds before a big event, use this technique: In the mornings, you can make a diet lemonade drink by mixing about 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, a pinch of cayenne pepper and 2 teaspoons of honey in a large glass of water. For the remainder of the day, fill a large water bottle (about 500mL) with a mixture of purified water and the juice of 2 to 3 freshly-squeezed lemons. Carry the bottle with you wherever you go and take frequent sips throughout the day. You’ll feel fuller throughout the day, experience less cravings, and gently flush out extra water weight accumulating around your midsection. Just be prepared for frequent trips to the bathroom!

Kill Parasites

If you’ve ever suffered from parasites and intestinal worms, you know that they can be difficult to get rid of. The key to destroying parasites once and for all is creating an environment where they can’t survive. Parasites love acidic environments, so the best way to kill them is to make your digestive system alkaline. Eating a lemon or drinking the juice from a lemon is one of the fastest ways to make your intestines alkaline and kill off pesky parasites.

Improve Your Oral Care

Whether you suffer from bad breath or canker sores, lemons can alleviate a host of oral health problems. Got a toothache? Applying fresh lemon juice to the area can eliminate the pain. Can’t stop your gums from bleeding? Massage freshly squeezed lemon juice into your gums to stop bleeding and keep bacteria that causes gum disease at bay.

Boost Your Concentration

Lemon balm essential oil, which gives off a gentle lemon scent, has been scientifically proven to have a calming effect. One study revealed that sniffing lemon essential oil had the ability to boost the mood of the study’s participants. If you want to increase your concentration and alertness at work, keep lemon balm essential oil handy.

Exfoliate Your Skin

The vitamin C found in lemons is not only good for your health, it’s great for your skin. Vitamin C is a key ingredient in many skincare products because it neutralizes free radicals and stimulates cell renewal by exfoliating your skin. Try slicing a lemon in half and using it as a facial scrub at least once a week. This removes stubborn dirt and dead skin cells that build up on the surface of your skin and reveals a fresher layer of skin underneath. Your face will look healthier and younger, and the best part is, you used something fresh from Mother Nature!

Detoxify Your Liver

According to herbalists and naturopaths, the sourness of lemons signals the nerves and hormones of the body to activate the liver and kidneys. The antioxidants in lemons also help enhance your kidney and liver function, enabling them to detoxify your body. As previously mentioned, lemon juice is also a mild diuretic which encourages your body to let go of stored water weight and flush out accumulated waste products. You will feel cleaner, lighter and more energetic than ever before. Detoxify your liver with a glass of lemon-water each morning. Simply add freshly-squeezed lemon juice to the first glass of water you drink each day.

Treat High Blood Pressure

Pectin found in lemons can help lower cholesterol which causes high blood pressure. Flavonoids in lemons as well as vitamin P help strengthen the blood vessels. Lemons are also rich in potassium which helps prevent high blood pressure.

Get Rid of Dandruff

If you want a simple do-it-yourself treatment for dandruff, you can combine lemon juice with other natural ingredients like coconut oil to make a hair mask that heals and moisturizes your dry scalp, leaving you dandruff-free. Just don’t overdo this treatment because lemon juice also has the ability to lighten your hair.

Make Your Feet More Attractive

Do you have rough, scaly or calloused feet? The solution might be right within your own kitchen. Lemons contain citric acid or vitamin C which acts as a natural exfoliant to slough off dead skin cells, enhance skin renewal, and brighten dark areas. To harness the power of lemons to make your feet pretty and sandal-worthy, there are two things you can do:
  • Make a lemon foot soak by combining the juice of 2 to 3 lemons with about 2 tablespoons of olive oil and ¼ cup of milk. Add this mixture to a basin full of warm water. Soak your feet for about 20 minutes,then use a foot file to file off any dead skin from your feet, especially on areas like your heels and the balls of your feet.
  • You can also create a lemon and sugar scrub to exfoliate your toes. Combine two cups of brown sugar with about ¼ cup of olive oil. Make sure the mixture is soft but not too oily. Then add several drops of lemon essential oil. Use this as a scrub after soaking your feet, and top off the homemade foot spa with some lemon-scented lotion! Not only will you have amazingly soft feet, but they’ll smell like summer as well.

Get Rid of a Fever and Chills

Lemon juice can help break fever and chills by naturally increasing the rate of perspiration. To help alleviate a fever, add lemon juice to a cup of hot water or tea with honey. Drink the concoction once every 2 hours or until the fever subsides. If symptoms persist, consult your physician.

Get Glowing Skin

The Vitamin C found in lemons are one of the gentlest and most natural ways to lighten dark spots and even out your skin tone. Vitamin C is also a key component when your body produces collagen and elastin, the tissues responsible for giving your skin a plump and youthful appearance. Without adequate vitamin C, your skin can’t repair these connective tissues, which results in fine lines and wrinkles.

Cure Acne

If you suffer from acne, lemon juice makes a great natural antibacterial treatment for acne. Simply wet a cotton ball in lemon juice and apply it to your face once at night on areas with acne, blackheads and eczema as an alternative to topical acne treatments. Wash the solution off with water the following morning, and follow your regular skincare routine.

Keep Insects at Bay

There’s no need to turn to commercial insect repellents and bug sprays with harmful chemicals if you have lemons on hand. To make a simple yet effective bug spray, simply combine 1 part of lemon essential oil to 10 parts of carrier oil like olive or sunflower oil or ethyl alcohol.  You must use a carrier oil to formulate this concoction because water simply won’t mix with the essential oil.

Alleviate Pain

Lemon essential oils create an aroma that relaxes blood vessels and reduces inflammation, which are key factors in pain relief. If you’re suffering from sore joints due to arthritis, rheuma or other inflammatory diseases, drinking a glass of lemon water each day could help ease your symptoms. Lemon extract can also help alleviate pain associated  with sunburn if applied to the skin with water. Got PMS or premenstrual syndrome? Believe it or not, drinking the juice of a few lemons each day could help relieve your symptoms.

Reduce the Appearance of Varicose Veins

Tired of unsightly varicose veins and spider veins? Use the blood-vessel strengthening properties of lemon to make your legs look younger and more beautiful. Mix several drops of lemon essential oil with a moisturizing oil of your choice, such as jojoba or avocado oil. Massage the mixture into the affected area on a regular basis and watch your unsightly varicose veins slowly disappear.

Whiten Your Teeth

Store-bought teeth whitening treatments are expensive and contain plenty of strong chemicals that could leave your teeth painfully sensitive. Save money and go natural route with a homemade lemon juice and baking soda formula to whiten your teeth. Simply combine the two ingredients in equal proportions to create a bubbly concoction that you can rub onto your teeth using a Q-tip. Leave on for 45 seconds, but no more: the acids in the lemon juice and baking soda can weaken your tooth enamel, then gently scrub off with a toothbrush and clean water.
As you can see, lemons pack a lot of benefits in such a tiny package. Refreshing, invigorating,cleansing and detoxifying, lemons can make a great addition to your home life.

  Interestingly, Lemon  is one of the 174 natural Ingredients contained in TREVO FOOD SUPPLEMENT. If your diet includes TREVO, that is a general healthy lifestyle.

‘How HarvestPlus tackles malnutrition, hunger with biofortification

BOTH children and adults need micronutrients for good health. Yet, one in three people in the world does not get enough of these crucial vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin A, zinc and iron, resulting in hidden hunger, since its effect are usually not visible. People suffering from hidden hunger may seem healthy, but they are often tired and weak, easily falling prey to illness and infections. In more severe cases, hidden hunger can leave children blinded, stunted or with a reduced intelligence quotient (IQ.) And without micronutrients that they need, women face a greater risk of dying during childbirth.

To tackle these challenges, HarvestPlus and its partners are developing six micronutrient-rich staple food crops for Africa and South Asia. These micronutrient-rich crops, developed through bio-fortification, are being released in countries with similar agro-ecologies.

Crop bio-fortification implies infusion of necessary vitamins and other nutrients into a crop. Advantages of bio-fortification of crops include reaching rural communities often missed out in other nutrition interventions such as supplementation and fortification; one up-front investment in breeding the nutrient into a crop variety for subsequent multiplication and use of staple foods already eaten by the people.


According to the Country Director for Nigeria, Mr Paul Ilona, “HarvestPlus focuses on three critical micronutrients recognised by the World Health Organisation (WHO) as the most lacking in the diet of the poor.”

He said the micronutrients include Vitamin A, zinc and iron. He said “about 127 million pre-school children are vitamin A deficient; about one-third of the world’s population is at high risk of zinc deficiency and iron deficiency is the most common micronutrient deficiency in the world,” adding that anaemia, often caused by iron deficiency, affects more than 1.6 million people globally.

In December 2011, the Federal Government approved the release of three yellow varieties of cassava that had been fortified with Vitamin A, given the importance of cassava to the people of the country, in order to tackle the challenges. The first wave of yellow cassava, he said, contains enough Vitamin A to provide 25 per cent of the daily needs of children and women.

Ilona said cassava is chosen first as the fortified crop being multiplied because almost all farming households in Nigeria produce and consume cassava or cassava products, with higher percentage of the urban dwellers also consuming one or two of the products, giving HarvestPlus the opportunity to tackle hidden hunger and vitamin deficiency in the country with pro-Vitamin A cassava.

With the help of the government and donors, he said, HarvestPlus had been able to distribute pro-Vitamin A cassava stems to 90,000 households in Nigeria, with the target of reaching no fewer than 100,000 households by December this year.


“Although Vitamin A can be found in many foods, including green leafy vegetables, carrots, mango, and eggs, these are rarely eaten in the quantity needed. So, strategies to provide additional Vitamin A exist. To address Vitamin A deficiency (VAD), Nigeria provides Vitamin A supplements to children less than five years during immunisation days and has mandated the fortification of wheat and maize flours, vegetable oil and sugar with Vitamin A since 2000.

“The development and dissemination of the pro-Vitamin A cassava has complemented current efforts to address VAD by delivering Vitamin A through a staple food that consumers eat every day in Nigeria,” Ilona said.

HarvestPlus country director also revealed that similar efforts were being simultaneously made in other parts of Africa to reduce VAD. Iron beans, he said, is being multiplied in Rwanda, where the crop is widely eaten daily; pro-Vitamin A potato is being multiplied and released to households in Uganda, and pro-Vitamin A maize is being multiplied in Zambia, where they are commonly eaten.

He added that the cassava being multiplied in Nigeria had been distributed in about 15 states of the federation, more than initial plan of zonal introduction and distribution of the stems.

A farm supervisor at HarvestPlus stem multiplication farm, said the varieties are high-yielding and virus-resistant, saying there was a record of a stick of the variety yielding 61KGs of fresh tubers of cassava.




HarvestPlus country director reiterated the commitment of the United States of America-based group towards tackling VAD, hunger and poverty in Nigeria and other parts of the Africa.

How soft drinks impact your health

Check out this graphic to see how drinking a soda affects your health, from the moment it enters your mouth to the time it is absorbed into the rest of your body, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake.


Free Radicals - Why Free Radicals May Be The 21st Century Most Silent But Deadly Killer In Our Bodies



Free Radicals - Why Free Radicals May Be The 21st Century Most Silent But Deadly Killer In Our Bodies

Cancers, diabetes, infertility, High Blood Pressure, weak erection, strokes, and cataracts seem as different from one another as any diseases could be. It's hard to imagine them sharing a single cause. Yet a growing body of research suggests that they do. The causal chain behind these and many other diseases, perhaps behind aging itself, includes a common link: a class of molecules known as free radicals.
Imagine that inside your body, there are a bunch of little monsters carrying hammers. And these monsters decide they don't like you, so they begin beating away at your DNA and cell membrane. Because of this, your cells are now damaged and this has opened the pathway for diseases. In essence, this is what free radicals do to our body. Instead of little monsters though, they are actually groups of atoms with an odd number of electrons. If you can recall from chemistry (one of my favorite subjects), electrons like to be in pairs. Whenever an atom has an unpaired electron, it goes crazy trying to find another electron to pair up with. Because these atoms often times cannot find a free electron, they bounce around our body and damage our DNA and the cell membrane. Now one unpaired electron may not cause much damage, but what about a large number of them? To put it in perspective, imagine a 3 followed by 23 zeros. This is what it would look like:
300,000,000,000,000,000,000,000. It is believed that this is the number of free radicals an average person has in their body. Now, imagine that many atoms (three hundred sextillion) damaging our cells constantly.
You may be telling yourself, "Okay that's bad, but how do they get in my body?"


Where do these free radicals come from?

It's absolutely impossible to avoid free radicals. They come from:
  • Sun- or any other type of radiation
  • Pollution- this includes cigarette smoke, which is a MAJOR source of free radicals
  • Food- in 2 ways: 1) the pesticides, chemicals and metals that are in our foods today and 2) the digestion of fats makes a lot of free radicals
  • Stress- both physical and mental. Ironically, those who exercise too much are actually increasing the oxidative damage to their bodies. That's why you hear about the marathon runner who drops dead of a heart attack. Don't use this as an excuse to not exercise though :) Moderate exercise is of course good for you.
  • Your own body- yes, just the act of breathing and creating energy for your body makes free radicals.

            Some researchers believe that the discovery of the effects of free radicals may be as big an advance as Pasteur's insights into infectious disease. In a sense, free radicals take medical theory one level deeper. While the mechanisms of infectious disease involve microorganisms and cells, free radicals involve something more fundamental: the subatomic realm of electrons.
Free radicals are molecules, usually of oxygen, that have lost an electron. That loss makes them unstable (in chemical terms, reactive). They begin to covet their neighboring molecules' electrons. In stealing an electron, they operate as terrorists in the body. They can attack DNA, leading to dysfunction, mutation, and cancer. They can attack enzymes and proteins, disrupting normal cell activities, or cell membranes, producing a chain reaction of destruction. Such membrane damage in the cells that line our blood vessels can lead to hardening and thickening of the arteries and eventually to heart attacks and strokes. Free-radical attacks on collagen can cause cross-linking of protein molecules, resulting in stiffness in the tissue.
Diseases linked to oxy radicals and reactive oxygen species
· Cancer.
· Arteriosclerosis, atherosclerosis.
· Heart disease.
· Cerebrovascular disease.
· Stroke.
· Emphysema (Cross et al 1987).
· Diabetes mellitus (Sato et al 1979).
· Rheumatoid arthritis (Cross et al 1987, Greenwald & Moy 1979, 1980, Halliwell 1981, 1989, Del Maestro et al 1982, Fligiel et al 1984).
· Osteoporosis (Hooper 1989, Stringer et al 1989).
· Ulcers.
· Sunburn.
· Cataracts (Niwa & Hansen, 1989, Yagi 1977).
· Crohn's disease (Niwa & Hansen 1989).
· Behcet's disease
· Aging
· Senility

If exercising doesn't help, then what does?
One way in which we can reduce the number of free radicals is to consume antioxidants. Antioxidants are typically found in foods such as dark chocolate, blueberries, cranberries, apples, black plums, black beans, etc. What is the problem with this? Well, for starters, antioxidants can only reduce free radicals on a one to one basis. This means that if you consume one antioxidant serving, you get rid of one free radical. Now, even if I consumed 100 servings of blueberries, would I even be making a dent in the free radical number? Unfortunately, the answer is no.
