New Research Shows Increased Risk of Heart Disease in Women Who Drink More Than One Alcoholic Beverage a Day
How Alcohol Consumption Affects Women’s Heart Health
The relationship between alcohol consumption and heart health has long been a subject of debate. In the past, some studies suggested that moderate alcohol intake might have protective effects on the heart. However, new research conducted by Kaiser Permanente Northern California has found alarming evidence that challenges this notion.
The study focused on young to middle-aged women and their drinking habits. The findings revealed that women who consume more than one alcoholic beverage per day are at a higher risk of developing coronary heart disease compared to those who drink in moderation or less frequently.
“There has been an increasing prevalence of alcohol use among young and middle-aged women as women may feel they’re protected against heart disease until they’re older, but this study shows that even in that age group, women who drink more than the recommended amount…are at risk for coronary heart disease,”
The research indicated that women who reported drinking eight or more alcoholic beverages per week were 33% to 51% more likely to develop c

Unlocking the Secrets of Obed’s 13kg Diet Menu Habits
Two important factors in diet. Exercise and diet. This time I would like to talk about diet. If you want to lose weight and see dramatic results, diet is essential. Many people control their diet through raw foods and intermittent fasting. However, this will never help you continue the diet. (Please note that this is entirely my experience and opinion.) Rather, you may have difficulty carrying out your daily activities due to reduced energy, and in severe cases, your immune system may weaken, which could pose a threat for your health.
In the early stages of the diet, the speed of weight loss is high relative to time. It is also the time when you lose the most weight. Did you know that over time your body adapts to changes to return to its original state? By nature, the body has a habit of conserving and storing energy as much as possible, but as time passes, its efficiency gradually decreases. Therefore, the initial diet period is really important. Depending on how you attack, the results vary greatly. So what kind of starting diet should you decide on and implement?
Now Obed’s 13kg diet menu habits are revealed.

1. Maintain low-salt and low-sugar eating habits
When it comes to diet, sodium and sugar are enemies to be avoided as much as possible. When I decided to go on a diet, the first thing I left behind were noodles full of refined flour, bread full of sugar and cakes. This includes sodas and juices, which are rich in high-fructose corn syrup. And I ate simply, minimizing the seasoning of the food. Use low-salt, low-allulose soy sauce instead of salt and sugar to adjust the seasoning. It’s also a great way to enjoy it by focusing on the original taste of the ingredients.
2. Avoid fried foods and soup-based foods as much as possible.
I’m avoiding the snacks and fried foods I used to eat. And the thing you have to be most careful about is ramen and Chinese food. (Actually, I haven’t tried this food in over two months.) Other than that, I’m also saying goodbye to one of my favorite foods, Sundae Gukbap, for now. Did you know that the worst thing for a diet is soup containing sodium? No matter how much you choose to eat just the ingredients, you also consume the soup contained in the ingredients. So please put it aside for a while and go on a diet.
3. Drink plenty of water frequently
I sweat a lot after physical activity. Adequate water intake is very helpful in expelling waste products and sodium from the body through sweat and urine. Furthermore, water is an essential element in the body’s energy metabolism. Don’t forget to drink water frequently to gradually lose weight and recover from fatigue.
Along with your eating habits, the foods you eat are also very important. When we talk about losing weight, we often think of a diet centered around chicken breast and vegetables. I like the taste of light chicken breast and fresh vegetables, but wouldn’t I get bored if I ate it every day? I decided to propose a more varied menu. Food prepared using multiple recipes is enjoyable every time you eat it. With the diet menu I have developed so far I have lost 13 kg stea
