Why chlorine is added to water?

Water comes from a variety of sources, such as lakes and wells, which can be contaminated with germs that may make people sick. Germs can also contaminate water as it travels through miles of piping to get to a community. To prevent contamination with germs, water companies add a disinfectant usually either chlorine or chloramine that kills disease-causing germs such as Salmonella, Campylobacter, and norovirus. Chlorine and chloramine are the major disinfectants used in public water systems.

Is chlorinated water toxic?

Even though chlorine is used to treat water and make it safe to drink, it’s important to understand that chlorine is still a chemical and can lead to some long-term health effects if you regularly drink water that contains too much chlorine. Since there is hardly any chlorine in drinking water, it’s not toxic to drink water that contains chlorine. The majority of municipalities choose to add chlorine to water because of how effective it is at killing bacteria and viruses. Swimming pool facilities commonly choose to add chlorine to their water for the same reason.

While there are other methods of disinfection, chlorine can disinfect water by breaking down the chemical bonds of the molecules that exist within viruses and bacteria. In the 1800’s, water went largely untreated until it was discovered that chlorine could be used as a disinfectant. Before this occurred, waterborne diseases like dysentery, cholera, and typhoid were common. Even though ultraviolet light is a great way to disinfect water without using chemicals, chlorine is still considered to be the most inexpensive option when used for large-scale treatment.

Despite its heavy use, chlorine doesn’t cause much harm to the environment. Chlorine can react with other types of chemicals once it has entered the water or air. When combined with inorganic materials in the water, chloride salts can be formed. When chlorine combines with organic materials, chlorinated organic chemicals will form. If animals have extended exposure to chlorine in the air, their respiratory systems, immune systems, and heart health may be adversely affected. Despite these issues, the harm caused to the environment by chlorine is low compared to other water contaminants.

Does chlorinated water cause corrosion?

Yes, it will, depending on its concentration. It will corrode steel and stainless steel due to chemical reactions between chlorine and water. Oxidation will occur and cause pipes to decay and over time will fail. Dilution with more water can assist in preventing this but it will still affect the metal in pipe to be corroded. Plastic types of pipe like PVC or CPVC will not be affected by the oxidation reaction of chlorine as is used in these applications instead of carbon and chromium-based metals.

Chlorine is strong oxidizing agent and it’s more corrosive than HCl. For example in reaction with iron metal:

2HCl + Fe → FeCl2 + H2

3Cl2 + 2Fe → 2FeCl3

chlorine oxidises iron directly to 3+ ion while HCl only to 2+ ion because hydronium ion is a weaker oxidising agent than chlorine.

Cheese tea emerged in the night markets of Taiwan in 2010, and its popularity has been spreading ever since. First, the sweet, salted cheese tea could be found only in Asian countries, but now this drink is making headway in the United States. The traditional version uses cheese: cream cheese, to be exact. However, the original Taiwanese version of cheese tea featured powdered cheese that was mixed with whipping cream and milk to get that frothy layer on top of iced green or black tea. The drink is finished with a dash of salt, which illuminates the flavours of earthy tea combined with the briny, sweet foam that has a bit of a savory edge. 

Buying and Storing

If you want to try cheese tea with your friends or family, there are many international tea franchises like Gong Cha and Happy Lemon in the United States you could go. Many fancy tea houses also serve it, so you can look for a place nearby and plan a date with the cheese tea this weekend.

What is Boba With Cheese Form Tea?

Both cheese tea and boba tea were found in Taiwan and spread in popularity through Asia. Today cheese boba tea is found in many places around the world, known for it's sweet, creamy liquid and chewy tapioca balls. Cheese tea hasn't garnered as much popularity, though it's only been around since 2010. Both teas can be made with any tea, but black or green tea are the signature flavors.

What's In Cheese Cream Tea?

There are four main ingredients in most cheese teas. The first is the tea itself, mainly black or green tea, but can also be herbal tisanes or oolong and white teas. The other main component is the cheese, which is either cream cheese or cheese powder. Then the cheese is whipped with milk or cream to make the frothy top the drink is known for. Finally, cheese tea gets sprinkled with salt to give it a savory flavor to play that plays against the creamy and sweetness of the cap and the earthy and floral notes of the tea.

Is it a Healthy Drink?

Cheese tea does not outrightly spell healthy but there are some advantages to having it. Cheese is known to help improve gut health, lower the risk of diabetes, and help maintain bone health. Green tea is an antioxidant-rich beverage that has protective effects against cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. However, the amount of sugar and calories in a single serving of this tea can affect your health if you drink it too often. 

As countries around the world started to open its door to tourism again after a long period of lockdown and closed borders, it is time for us to dive deeper into what travel will look like under this new normalcy of social distancing and which places are the best to travel to in the post-COVID-19 world.

See the five easiest places to travel for your first major trip post-COVID, which factor in accessibility, quarantine duration (if any), and vaccine requirements. But remember: No matter where you go, always check your destination's travel guidelines and COVID case numbers, since they're always changing.

1. The Pamir Highway, Kyrgyzstan & Tajikistan

The Pamir Highway is one of the best road trips you can do in your life. The highway stretches across Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan along the remote mountain region of the Pamir bordering Afghanistan. This beautiful scenic road is considered to be one of the highest international highways in the world with the highest point at 4,655m above sea-level. Along the way, you will be sleeping at local's guest houses in towns in the middle of nowhere, seeing what life is like out there along the Pamir, and interacting with the lovely people while being sandwiched between stunning landscapes and snowy mountains throughout your entire road trip.

The Pamir Highway is one of the most remote regions in the world and social-distancing will not be a problem at all while you are on this trip. Since the Pamir Highway connects the 2 countries, you will have to start your trip in Kyrgyzstan and end in Tajikistan.

The confirmed COVID cases in these 2 countries are relatively low compared to countries in Europe and America with only 3,700 cases in Kyrgyzstan and 5,600 cases in Tajikistan, mostly in urban areas. You will most likely be only arriving and departing from these cities but once you are on your way to the Pamir, you will be in a less affected region most of your trip.

2. Salar De Uyuni, Bolivia

South American countries are not doing as well when it comes to flattening the COVID curve as countries in Asia or Oceania but fortunately, there are a ton of regions that are less affected such as the Salar de Uyuni, the largest salt flat in the world in Bolivia. Bolivia confirmed cases sit at 26,389 as of mid-2020 and even though the number is high, the affected regions are usually the highly populated area which Salar de Uyuni isn't, making it a great place to go social distancing and away from the rest of the world.

To explore Salar de Uyuni, you will be traveling in a jeep with a maximum of 6 people through the salt flats, sleep in a hotel made out of salt, and relaxing in a high altitude hot spring in the remote mountain region of Bolivia. Most of the jeeps traveling the route will spread themselves out to different guest houses in the remote villages around Salar de Uyuni so you won't be around many people in a confined area during the trip making social distancing much easier.

3. Easter Island, Chile

Talking about islands, another great remote island that you should visit after COVID-19 is Easter Island located over 3,500 km away. To be honest, Chile is not doing so well with the containment of the spread of COVID-19 with whopping 250,000+ cases as of mid-2020 but since Easter Island is so far away from the mainland, they have only been seeing 5 cases which makes the island a great place to stay social distance while traveling.

The beautiful culture of Rapa Nui is one of the most interesting cultures out there and to be able to see the Rapa Nui statue with your own eyes is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that you will not regret. You can rent a quad bike and explore the island alone, away from people, or you can go off at night and see the stars as you have never seen before. I've never the Milky Way so visible in my life.

To get to the Easter Island, you will have to fly into Santiago and from there you can fly domestically with LATAM Airlines to get to Easter Island. When you arrive at the island, you can rent a car, a quad bike, or a bike and go out and explore the remote island by yourself.

4. The Outback, Australia

Australia is another country that is doing very well at containing the spread of COVID-19 with around 7,500 confirmed cases since mid-2020, making it another great place to visit after COVID-19. The Outback desert of Australia is the perfect place to maintain social distancing while traveling in Australia. With a vast unpopulated desert area, so remote that even the Australians rarely go, you will have all the beautiful aboriginal sacred spots like Uluru and Kata Tjuta all to yourself.

There are also some beautiful hiking trails like the Kings Canyon that will take your breath away at every turn or you can go and ride camels at sunset while looking at Uluru. Either or, there are more things for you to do in the Outback than you might think.

5. The Great Walks In New Zealand

New Zealand is one of the first countries in the world that was able to flatten the COVID curve successfully and they are way ahead of everyone else in terms of readying their country for tourism. Due to excellent policies by the prime minister, Jacinda Ardern, and the country's effort to control the spread of the virus, New Zealand only saw about 1166 confirmed cases, making it one of the safest places to travel to.

New Zealand was already a well-known destination for its untouched nature and great hiking spots even before the COVID-19, especially in the South Island where many of the most beautiful Great Walks are located.

They have managed a way to create and maintain several hiking tracks around the country where you will be able to hike through some of New Zealand’s most awe-inspiring landscapes with varying difficulties and duration. There is no better way to social distance ourselves from the world when traveling than to go hiking in New Zealand and they have a ton of scenic routes for us to choose from.

To do these great walks, first, you have to plan ahead and pick the dates you want to start and end the hike and then you will have to book the mountain huts on New Zealand's official website along the route. These mountain huts get booked out extremely fast so be sure to do it prior to your trip.

Most of the time, bad habits are simply a way of dealing with stress and boredom. Everything from biting your nails to overspending on a shopping spree to drinking every weekend to wasting time on the internet can be a simple response to stress and boredom.

But it doesn't have to be that way. You can teach yourself new and healthy ways to deal with stress and boredom, which you can then substitute in place of your bad habits.

Of course, sometimes the stress or boredom that is on the surface is actually caused by deeper issues. These issues can be tough to think about, but if you're serious about making changes then you have to be honest with yourself.

Here are the 6 way to stop your bad habits.

1.  Replace your behavior.

Research has shown that replacing unwanted behaviors with other activities is an effective way to break a bad habit. Clench your fists instead of biting your nails, or go for a short run rather than smoke a cigarette. Try to understand what needs your bad habit satisfied and then meet those needs with a healthier activity.

2. Don’t go it alone.

It’ll be much easier to break a bad habit if you have the help of a support network. Set a challenge with a friend to break a habit together. Share your plan with others and ask them not to engage in the habit around you.  Another option is to seek professional help.

3. Build a plan and plot your progress.

Once you’ve identified the problem, focus on the solution. What does success look like and how will you get there? Going cold turkey might work for some, but starting small and ticking off bigger and bigger achievements along the way may be a safer approach. No matter what your solution is, set a date as a goal for when you want to be completely free of your habit. Give yourself milestones along the way and track your progress as you go.

4. Analyze your habit.

When, where, why and how do you engage in your habit? How often do you do it? It’s crucial to understand your behavior if you want to change it. Use a journal to monitor your habit for a week or a month by taking notes. Look for any patterns. Awareness provides the foundation for change.

5. Get motivated.

To successfully break a habit, it’s important to identify why you want to change. Write down your reasons. What are the upsides of changing? What are the downsides of continuing the behavior? Keep this list with you in case you need to look at it for motivation

6. Treat your self.

Harness the power of positive reinforcement to build on your gains. After making small changes towards breaking your habit, reward yourself! Use the money, time or energy you’ve saved from opting out of your bad habit to buy or do something nice for yourself. These regular ‘rewards’ will inspire you to keep at it.

 

What is bubble tea?

Bubble Tea is known as boba milk tea, is a cold, frothy drink made with a tea base shaken with flavors, sweeteners and/or milk with tapioca pearls at the base of the drink. 

Boba tea was developed by Liu Han-Chieh and Lin Hsiu Hui in Taichung, Taiwan during the 1980’s. Lin Han-Chieh came up with the idea of milk tea after seeing how the Japanese added milk to their coffee. The new milk tea boosted the popularity of his teahouse immensely and Lin Hsiu Hui, who was product manager at the time, created the pearls by combining tapioca ball and sweetened pudding with the iced tea. Since then, the popularity of boba has spread from Southeast and East Asian countries to mainly the US and Canada.

Why it called as bubble?

An incredibly unique looking beverage, Bubble tea is a Taiwanese recipe made by blending a tea base with milk, fruit and fruit juices, then adding the signature “bubbles” - yummy tapioca pearls that sit at the bottom.

These delicious fruit or tea infusions can be served either piping hot or iced cold, making a delicious and ever-so-quirky drink and snack. Bubble tea is served in transparent cups with a fat straw so that - as you sip - the tapioca balls (also known as “pearls” or “boba”) come shooting up it and can be chewed as you swallow down the delicious liquid. It’s called bubble tea both because of the tapioca balls, and the floating “bubbles” created by the vigorous shaking involved in its blending.

Why is bubble tea trendy?

1. Unique taste 

The sweet taste of the tea paired with the chewy tapioca balls make up the unique element that boba provides. Drinks like iced coffee or juice have the same constant texture, but with boba, the pearls offer a sort of “break” from the same boring consistency. There really is no other drink like it.

Shops generally have a wide range of flavors to choose from as well. This includes the exotic ones like taro, matcha, lychee, guava, passion fruit, and even avocado boba. What other drink provides this many foreign flavors?

2.Variety

Aside from pearls, boba shops offer a wide variety of toppings like jelly (of many flavors), chia seeds, creama/crema, aloe vera, and popping boba. And again, there are many different flavors to choose from. At Boba Guys’, a popular San Francisco boba chain, Strawberry Matcha is a bestseller. And at Happy Lemon, another popular boba chain, they have a whole series of salted cheese drinks.

How unhealthy is a bubble tea?

bubble tea is high in sugar. Bubble tea is made by adding tapioca pearls, or boba, to tea with milk and flavored syrups. Although one unpublished study reported that bubble tea contains carcinogens, it misidentified several compounds. As such, bubble tea is unlikely to cause cancer. Nonetheless, you should enjoy it in moderation due to its high sugar content.

There are many benefits of reading books, including intellectual and psychological capacity increase. Every single book you read offers you endless opportunities of exploring and learning new ideas. When you read, you gain information and knowledge and you have a plethora of other benefits as well.

There are many benefits to reading, from making you smarter to improve your reading and writing skills. If you want to understand what benefits one could reap from developing the habit of reading, then we have enlisted the top 7 benefits here.

07 Benefits of Reading Books

01.Good For Stress Reduction

Everyday concerns will keep bothering you unless you do something to divert your mind. Reading gives you that mental space to occupy yourself with something more interesting. When you read a great story, all your stress seems to slip away and relax you since you tend to travel mentally in a different realm. Sometimes while reading, you come across valuable advice or solutions to your problems.

Research from the University of Sussex in 2009 found reading reduced stress by up to 68%. In fact, reading was found to be more stress-relieving than taking a walk or listening to music. Researchers speculate this is because reading invites you into another world, allowing your brain to become absorbed in a completely different subject matter or series of events in the present moment.

02.Reading boosts vocabulary.

According to researchers, children who regularly read books at an early age develop large vocabularies in the long run. When the child has the benefit of vocabulary, they affect their academic success by passing the different set tests, eventually getting college admissions, and have vast job opportunities.

Many employers are looking for people with soft skills, such as communicating clearly. Benefits of reading books include exposing the reader to new words directly from the read context, increasing your soft skills.

03.Improves Your Memory

Regular reading is a great exercise for your brain. If you read a fictional book, your brain is forced to remember the names and nature of various characters. Going back to their history and remembering events or plots is fun and improves your memory.

One of the greatest benefits of reading daily is that your brain becomes super powerful. An amazing fact about our brain is that it can retain a great amount of information, and with every new memory, your brain creates new brain pathways or synapses. 

Moreover, it strengthens your existing memory, helps to recall short-term memory, and stabilizes mood.

04.Fiction leads to greater creativity.

Some of the best self-help progress can actually come from what you learn inside a novel: Reading fiction can make you a better, more open-minded thinker. Researchers at the University of Toronto found by reading fiction, you're imagining things beyond your current reality whether you're reading contemporary fiction set in modern day life, historical fiction, or science fiction your brain begins to build new pathways. Basically, reading about things that aren't immediately tied to your view of reality makes you more open-minded, simply because your brain now realizes other options exist. Sure, it's unlikely you'll be battling aliens anytime soon just because you read about it in a sci-fi novel, but perhaps that story tangentially helps add some flair to your work presentation.

05.Reading makes you happier.

While reading clearly has plenty of health benefits, the real reason most of us are picking up a new book and diving in regularly is because reading makes us happy. There's a reason being a bookworm is a common personality trait, and why every town has a library. It's because reading is something we do for pleasure just as much as we do it to learn and gain knowledge. Survey after survey has found regular readers report feeling happier when they pick up a book. So, whether or not you care about the increased neural connections or improved longevity, it's also OK to simply read because it makes you happy.

06.Reading increases human understanding.

Whether it’s social media, the 24-hour media cycle, or something else, opinions have become quite divisive lately. It can feel like we're constantly being pitted against each other, and that every issue requires us to not only take sides, but also to judge the person on the opposing side. We're losing our ability to see other viewpoints and potentially empathize or simply engage with people who don't have the same views.

But research found reading fiction and getting into characters' minds and hearts, makes us more empathetic so we can accept that other people have other opinions. Being able to have that viewpoint may help foster more positive, useful conversations. Reading has also been shown to boost emotional intelligence by giving examples and adjectives that help you understand other people's emotions, and connect to characters rather than only seeing the world through your own emotions.

07.Better Writing Skills

If you read more, you will naturally become good at writing skills. Since your vocabulary and pronunciation improve by reading regularly, it eventually makes you a better writer.

We are not just talking about writing fiction, books, novels, etc. Even when writing something in everyday personal and professional life, your writing skills would have improved with regular reading.

The more you read, the better your writing skills will become. You would tend to focus on various aspects of writing that would allow you to write more effectively than others.

Final Thoughts

In conclusion, reading can improve your life in many ways, and the reading benefits are undeniable. Among the most powerful weapons you can ever have in the world is a book, as it gives you a chance to explore the different possibilities in the world and be inspired in the process.

 

Sleeping is one of the most important things we do every night. Getting the right amount of sleep has an untold number of health benefits and not getting enough sleep is a serious problem in many countries around the world.

So you should have heard of the benefits of getting adequate sleep, but did you know that you can get additional benefits by sleeping naked?

The benefits of sleeping naked:

1. Sleeping Naked Improves Sleep Quality

Sleeping naked may help you get better sleep because of its effect on your body temperature. One of the ways to get refreshing sleep is by making your sleep environment cool and comfortable. Experts suggest that the ideal temperature for sleep is between 60 and 68 degrees Fahrenheit. When you sleep naked, you can support your body’s ideal state for getting quality sleep. 

2.Decrease Stress and Stabilize Your Mood

There is a bi-directional relationship between stress and anxiety and sleep. Poor sleep may exacerbate a person’s stress levels and anxiety symptoms. In turn, stress and anxiety may impair a person’s sleep quality. If you share a bed with your partner: sleeping naked next to them may support the release of oxytocin, a love hormone known for its anti-stress effect, and may help reduce stress and anxiety.

3.helps you regulate your cortisol

Cortisol is a very strange chemical in the body but it can do a lot of damage. When you sleep naked, it helps keep your body temperature at the optimal ranges so your body can better create cortisol. If you sleep overheated your cortisol levels tend to stay high, even after you wake up. This can lead to increased anxiety, cravings for bad food, weight gain, and more terrible things. Sleep naked so you can keep your body temperature down and sleep well so your body can properly produce and regulate cortisol.

4.Improve the Look of Skin 

Whether you’re a man, woman, 25, or 65, everybody wants healthy, glowing skin. Did you know that deeper, more restful sleep helps your skin repair faster? It increases blood flow, which helps your skin heal any wounds. Increased blood flow also brightens your complexion and reduces swelling, particularly around the eyes where puffy circles can form.

5.Increase Male Fertility 

Studies, such as this one from the Journal of Andrology, have shown that the type of underwear a man wears (or lack thereof) can have a huge impact on sperm count and fertility. Tighter-fitting underwear creates higher temperatures that can damage sperm. Wearing no underwear to bed is recommended to maintain an ideal temperature but loose-fitting boxers are a close second.

The Drawbacks of Sleeping Naked

1.Could lower your body temperature too much.

Perhaps the most obvious reason not to sleep naked is that you could lower your body temperature too much, thereby weakening your immune system and making it easier to get sick. While you won’t get sick simply by being chilly, there are some studies that suggest that viruses like the rhinovirus can replicate more quickly at lower temperatures. So if you’re going to sleep naked in the winter, be sure you have some skin to skin contact to help warm you up.

2.Increase bacteria in bed

If there’s a major drawback of sleeping naked, it’s definitely in the hygiene department. “The average person passes gas 15 to 25 times a day, and this can happen while you're sleeping. Moreover, whenever you do pass gas, you are also excreting a small amount of fecal matter, which your underwear helps to catch. Without underwear (or any clothing), that fecal matter is going straight into your sheets.

3.Increase your chances of an allergic reaction

While your body could increase the amount of bacteria in your bed, experts also note that your bed itself could be home to allergens that might have a more pronounced effect on your health. Allergens like dust mites, mold, mildew, and pet dander can easily get into your mattress and trigger allergic responses. 

As time passes, our skin begins to show signs of ageing. It begins to lose its natural elasticity and becomes flabby. Unfortunately, this is a natural and irreversible process. But it can be reduced and delayed as much as possible. Often people turn to cosmetic surgery.

It is not very expensive, but it can have a lot of not very pleasant side effects.

Fortunately, there are home remedies to regain skin elasticity naturally. These remedies are easy to make with what you have in the fridge. And above all, they are super effective in reducing wrinkles and fine lines.

Why does the skin become saggy?

Skin that becomes saggy is one of the main signs of aging. It shows up particularly well on the face. Wrinkles and fine lines are also the first signs that appear. Slowly the skin on the cheeks, chin, neck and nose begins to sag. 

The main causes of this sagging skin are: -

• With age, collagen synthesis becomes slower, causing the skin to lose its elasticity. 
• The tissues that support various cartilages and bones weaken and fall off with age. 
• Fat that was once evenly distributed under the skin begins to lose volume. Hollow zones and solid zones are formed. These collapse due to gravity. 
•  Excessive sun exposure damages collagen and elastin in the skin. This phenomenon causes it to soften and fall off. 
• Cigarette smoke and air pollution are other aggravating factors. They can promote the process of wrinkle formation and sagging skin. 
• Rapid weight loss or pregnancy can also cause the same symptoms.

Anger is a normal, healthy emotion, neither good nor bad. However, anger can become problematic if it leads to aggression, outbursts, or even physical altercations. Anger control is essential for helping you avoid saying or doing something you may regret. Before anger escalates, you can use specific strategies for controlling anger.

Anger is a common response to frustrating or threatening experiences. It can also be a secondary response to sadness, loneliness, or fear. In some cases, the emotion may seem to arise from nowhere.

Healthy 7 ways to control your anger

1.Count down to 100

Thinking about something other than what’s making you upset for 100 seconds can help you avoid blowing a fuse. It gives you a chance to gather yourself and your thoughts before you do anything else.

2.Talk to someone

Talking to someone you trust about how you’re feeling can take a weight off your shoulders as well as your mind. That could be a trusted adult, friend or family member. If your anger is getting out of control, or you think you or someone in your life meets the criteria for a personality disorder, consider seeing a mental health professional.

3.Write a letter

Write a letter or email to the person that made you angry. Then, delete it. Often, expressing your emotions in some form is all you want, even if it’s in something that will never be seen.

4.Move your body

Exercise is an awesome way to let off steam. You could take a walk around the block, go for a run, or do something really high-energy like boxing.

5.Take a deep breath 

Your breathing becomes shallower and speeds up as you grow angry. Reverse that trend (and your anger) by taking slow, deep breaths from your nose and exhaling out of your mouth for several moments.

6.Change your surroundings

When you can’t quiet your thoughts, a change of scenery – even just going into the next room or stepping outside for five minutes – can disrupt the track that your mind is on.

7.Stay quiet

Sometimes anger makes you say and even do things that you don’t intend to and something that you will regret later. Try to stay quiet when you feel too angry.
