The statements made about women's breasts in this Big Brother Show makes me sick
Some think that a person's body count is shown by breast sagging
I see adults who say "Olympus has fallen" disgracing their ancestors thinking they're shaming her
That's just not how it works
Breasts contain mainly fat, glands that produce milk, and Cooper ligaments
It is commonly thought that these ligaments is what give support to these breasts making them firm and supple nd giving them their shape
However, with age, these ligaments become lax and breasts fall
There are major things that make might make a your breasts sag
1. Cigarette smoking(Shisha): Smoking breaks down elastin in the skin which can invariably cause breasts to fall
2. The more pregnancies a woman has, the more chances that her breasts are going to fall.
3. Large breasts: it is common sense that large structures need more support, the larger your breasts are the more support they would need.
So naturally, they would sag because of their weight
4. Gravity: Gravity plays a large role.
5. Higher body mass index: remember that breasts are largely composed of fat>more BMI, more fat>more weight >sag
6.Significant weight gain or loss(23 kg) If you lose a lot of weight too soon, without giving your body time to adjust, breasts may sag because you have extra skin
Age: as a woman gets older the ligaments weaken, hence, breasts will sag.
Breast feeding will NOT make your breast fall!
Also, there is no evidence that wearing A bra will affect the sagging of your breasts,
A BRA WILL ONLY CHANGE THE SHAPE OF YOUR BREAST WHEN IT IS WORN.
Exercise will NOT improve the shape of your breasts, they contain fat not muscle
Vit C helps in connective tissue, may help minimally, but there is no evidence that this works in breast shape
For a more permanent if you're uncomfortable with the way they look get a breast lift

Till today, a lot of Nigerians on the streets still believe that former president Sani Abacha died from an apple that a lady gave him to eat.
Meanwhile, there were reports it was from liver cirrhosis, a condition where a lot of liver cells die and is replaced by scars.
Your liver does a lot of jobs for you, from making sure that it removes toxins from your body, to making proteins that allow your blood clot properly, some drugs become active or inactive in your body thanks to your liver
It's an important organ. One of the most important
Funny enough, the liver has this insane ability to regenerate new cells when it loses old ones
You can cut off a part of the liver and it'll try and grow back
But unfortunately, some chemicals eg alcohol and diseases like hepatitis can cause widespread injury of the liver cells
Our hospitals are filled with people who cannot pay their medical bills.
Unfortunately, many of them die because they do not get access to funds on time. Some have emptied their life's savings and yet it does not even start to sort the bills.
People are going through a lot
"Well, get health insurance" easy to think this sorts the issue.
It is not that simple, while health insurance helps with emergency medical bills, how many Nigerians can afford proper health insurance, the basic one that many Nigerians have access to do not cover cancer etc
Or even major surgeries.
Let us also consider that many Nigerians currently have health insurance because their employer puts in as part of their remuneration package.
That's why we pray a lot! A lot of things are outside our control.
Okiriki is back, Ikegwuru will soon annoy the gods

Epilepsy is a disorder in the brain that causes seizures that are recurrent.
These seizures happen when there is a sudden haphazard rush of electricity or impulses in the brain.
For simplicity, Seizures can either be generalized or focal
Involving all the brain or just part.
I messed up. I have been stupid with my finances for the past 3 years, as someone who comes from the kind of background I come from it was stupid thing to do
One of the mistakes we make is using the same banks we opened as students, without realizing it might be a costly mistake
One day i sat down and calculated all the monies I had spent on back transfers, card charges, plus how much value my money was losing just by sitting in a bank and I realized I may end up exactly where people in my background were: Struggling to make ends meet, one of my fears
At the end of the day, I am losing money just by keeping it in the traditional banks we know.
Some said "invest" which is good advice, but you can't invest everything you have, you still need to keep some in the banks to move around and stuff.
Then it finally hit me. Even though I was a doctor, I was not exempt from getting this disease.
That is one of the reasons I shout on this app, your age is not protection against high blood pressure. Can happen to anyone.
Hypertension, happens when your blood pressure increases to high levels.
Your blood pressure measurement takes into account how blood is passes through your blood vessels and how much resistance the blood meets while the heart is pumping.
Drinking water is good, but if you drink unclean water, you could get stomach ulcers.
Many people think that fasting or not eating enough causes stomach ulcer, but it's either bad water or abusing drugs like Ibuprofen in the class of NSAIDS that caused theirs
Let me explain:
Your stomach secretes an acid known as gastric acid with a pH of less than 3.5 enough to burn through your skin, why doesnt this burn your stomach?
This is because your stomach is protected by a sheet of mucus like substance that protects it from being destroyed by this acid
When you get infected with H Pylori, it can survive the harsh environment of the stomach by netutralizing the acid around it
It is able to colonise the stomach, sometimes for years, this can lead to inflammation and create a chance for acid to reach the stomach wall
