Mushrooms for health and beauty

 Mushrooms not only taste good, but they also have many health benefits. They contain antioxidants and  have anti-inflammatory properties. They are used in skincare products, they help with blighting our skin, irritations or inflammations. There are many different types of mushrooms, not all of them have the same effects. Here are some examples:

- Finnish Chaga found in northern part of Europe, they help fighting infections and helped decrease the instances of tumors spreading.

- Shiitake, they help our immunity system and lighten our skin

-Reishi,  they contain beta-glucans that stop the spread and growth of cancer cells.

I’m not a huge fan of mushrooms, like many people. I think there are better ways to take care of our health. Maybe someday I’ll try cosmetics with mushrooms, not now because I don’t need anti-aging products.

Second spring in The UK?

  This November is the hottest of all time, the average temperature is 2,2 degrees warmer than average Novembers from the past 30 years. Some plants that flower in October still flower due to the warm temperature and frequent rains. Chain of meteorological events this year affects the life cycle of our gardens, disrupting it when we wouldn’t normally expect it. The drought that appeared this summer is one of key factors to this Fennomen. Extreme heat made many flowers became dormant like they do during winter. Many meteorologist say that soon weather will calm down and return to normal. People blame the climate change for frequency and intercity of extreme weather events such as drouths and floods.  source: https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-63754070

Does money buy happiness?

  Money can improve quality of our life and our wellbeing. Our happiness increase when our salary doubles. But are the rich people happier than people that earn average salary? Many studies show that wealthy people tend to be more pessimistic and stingy. The richer you get the less empathetic you are, you simply lose the ability to relate to “poor” people problems. I personally think that money can increase chances of being happy, but simply being rich cannot guarantee our happiness. With money we can treat ourself to little pleasures that can give us temporary satisfaction, plus we don’t have to worry about living paycheck to paycheck. In our capitalistic society money is key factor to our survival, so I don’t believe there are people that don’t care about money or that it doesn’t buy our happiness. source: https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2022/oct/28/how-much-money-makes-you-happy-we-ask-an-expert

Pumpkin pollution – danger for environment

  Pumpkins - symbol of Halloween or even Thanksgiving, who would expect that this autumn vegetable can be extremely dangerous to our climate? Their huge popularity also came with a huge pollution problem, every year millions pounds of pumpkins end up in land fields. When they decompose they emit methane gas, it warm the atmosphere faster than carbon dioxide that’s why it’s so dangerous. It’s sad because we can make so many things from them like bread, muffins, pies or even wine, not to mention that their seeds are edible. They can be used as food for wild animals like deer, moose or racoons. I think it’s sad to see how much food we waste. With foods like pumpkins it’s worse, people only buy them for decoration and they don’t reuse them. We should spread more awareness about this.  source:https://www.nationalgeographic.com/environment/article/pumpkin-pollution-is-a-problem-what-you-can-do
