The main use of vegetable oils are of course cooking. What are the common oils that you use? Sunflower oil, canola oil, mustard oil, coconut oil, palm oil, etc etc. However have you ever pondered upon the benefits of these oils? Or researched which oil has maximum nutrients and is much beneficial to your health? Here I would like to elucidate the benefits of palm oil and bust the myths surrounding it. There are two types of palm oil: Crude palm oil and crude palm kernel oil. Both these oils are chemically and nutritionally different from each other. Also the uses of these two oils are different.  Now there are many uses of palm oil.  Nutritiona l: Palm oil is very rich in calories. One teaspoon (4.5 gms) gives 40 calories. So it's an important component of daily diet. It is rich in Vitamin E in the form of tocotrienols. The distribution of Vitamin E in palm oil is 30% tocopherols and 70% tocotrienols. Crude palm oil contains 500-700 mg/kg of carotenoid

Title: A drop of you Author: Krishna Chhetri Genre: Romance Pages: 271 Before starting this book, ask a few questions to yourself. Do you believe in love? Do you believe in unconventional love? ie falling in love blindly, without thinking of the repercussions? Does love only mean marriage to you? Do you swear by 'and lived happily ever after?' As the name suggests, this book is a love story. The tagline says: Loving, with or without you. But hold on, you don't need to be a hardcore romantic to enjoy this book.

My mantra to a healthy life is simple... Include as many natural colours as possible in your diet. That's I why I love salads!

How many of you love fine arts? I bet most of you. Not necessarily painting something significant but just the activity of drawing and colouring. But how many of you have actually taken classes for it? I bet very few. The reasons maybe many. From hearing art is 'unimportant' from elders to being 'not good enough' to pursue arts as a profession. Or worse, you being told that one cannot sustain one's life with art. Sounds familiar? It did with Mr Ashwani too. Now who's this person? Mr Ashwani Kumar Prithviwasi deserves to be called a living legend because of his contribution in the field of fine arts. A person who is totally self made with no family background in Arts but who went on to become not only a successful artist but a great teacher and an entrepreneur with a chain of Art colleges under his belt. He believed that everyone should have the right to draw and paint and his institutes provide professional degrees to hobby classes, irrespective of age

The protagonist of the story is a very young multi millionaire Gyan but he doesn't believe in the Almighty. This story is about the journey of Gyan to self realisation. This story is especially worth a read because it shows how a person who just doesn't believe in anything metaphysical undergoes a transformation. The author Pankaj Rajput is a financial advisor by profession but his interest lies in metaphysics and spirituality. No wonder he has ventured into the world of Vedic fiction penned down such a mystical story.  The narration starts with the protagonist Gyan, looking at the pictures of a recently excavated 4000 year old fort. He is one of the most successful and youngest start up guys but is a historian at heart. His company imparted education at very affordable prices. His heart lies in the excavation site and waited  for everyone to vacate it. They thought the discovery to be a fort but folklore believed something else. They said that it was a temple and it
