Tips to eat healthy during self-quarantine

25th January 2022
"For good health and normal immune function, eating a healthy balanced diet is still necessary."

Basically, no foods can 'boost' our immune system or prevent or treat COVID-19. However, for good health and normal immune function, eating a healthy balanced diet is still necessary.

Here are some tips to help you and your family both physically and mentally:

Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables

Fruits and vegetables are among the most important foods for providing our bodies with the vitamins, minerals, and fiber they require for good health and normal immune function.

Every day, we should aim to consume at least 5 servings of fruits and vegetables. Fresh, frozen, canned, dried, and juiced versions all count as a portion.

Because different colored fruits and vegetables contain different combinations of vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals, try to vary your daily meals as much as possible.

Stay hydrated

Staying hydrated is critical for overall health. The amount of water we require is determined by our age, gender, weight, height, level of physical activity, and environmental conditions.

This is the healthiest and cheapest drink if you have access to safe tap water. Slices of lemon, cucumber, mint, or berries can be added for a refreshing boost.

Other hydrating beverages include unsweetened coffee, sparkling water, unsweetened tea, iced tea, and unsweetened infused or flavored water.

Set an Eating Schedule

It is natural to feel anxious, sad, stressed, and scared during times of uncertainty.

Maintaining a regular daily routine can help relieve some of the stress. One way we can do this is to stick to regular mealtimes and plan meals ahead of time.

This can help us better control our hunger, meet our nutrient needs, and make the most of the food we have, reducing food waste.

We may eat more than we need during prolonged periods of stress.

Mindful eating can be a helpful strategy for maintaining a healthy relationship with food and balancing our energy intake.

Stay active at home

Physical activity is beneficial to both the body and the mind.

Healthy adults should aim for at least 30 minutes of daily physical activity, while healthy children should aim for at least 1 hour.

Make time in your day for physical activity. Take regular breaks from sitting by standing up and stretching, or if possible, going for a quick walk.

Take part in an online exercise class. Consider activities such as dancing, playing active videogames, cleaning the house, or playing with your children to be physical activities.

Nutrition and proteins

Protein is essential for the healthy functioning of our body and immune system.

We can get protein from both animal- and plant-based sources, such as beans, pulses, fish, eggs, dairy products, and meats.

Our protein requirement changes depending on our stage of life.

Eating consistently every 3-4 hours is a great way to manage mindless eating and your energy levels.

Essential tips before selling your car

25th January 2022
"It is never easy to sell your vehicle. After all, it is an asset that has provided you with many happy memories."

It is never easy to sell your vehicle. After all, it is an asset that has provided you with many happy memories. Aside from the emotional attachment, you have with your car, the actual process of selling it can be quite challenging.

Use this step-by-step guide to assist you with the process of selling your car:

Study the Market Conditions

First and foremost, you must determine the true market value of your vehicle.

You can compare the prices of similar vehicles on commercial sites. Your car's market value is also an important factor in your car insurance policy.

Keep in mind that just because you see a listing doesn't mean the car will sell for that price.

The final price is determined by key factors such as the vehicle's condition and mileage, as well as elements such as the season and region.

Inspect It

Potential buyers may wish to test drive a vehicle to ensure it is working properly.

Similarly, before you list your current vehicle for sale, you should take it to a dealership or independent mechanic for a professional inspection.

That way, you can fix issues like body damage, broken headlights or taillights, and chipped windows that would otherwise force you to sell for less money.

The inspection will help you command a higher price for the vehicle because prospective buyers will know it has a clean health record.

Get all the paperwork together

When it comes to selling used cars, potential buyers will pay close attention to the service history.

If your vehicle has been well maintained, that is a major selling point, so gather all of your service records and include the phrase 'full-service history' in your advertisement to help boost its value.

Everything from oil changes to major repairs and routine maintenance should be kept in chronological order. Nothing beats a neatly organized stack of service receipts.

Never accept cheques, banker’s drafts, or IOUs

Don't hand over your keys until you've received payment for your vehicle.

This applies to both private buyers (who may attempt to pay by cheques or promise to transfer funds later) and car dealers or buyers.

Any reputable buyer will understand that you must be paid in full before they can take possession of the vehicle – either by bank transfer or cash on collection if selling privately.

And if they can't digitally confirm that funds have been transferred, they should always be able to provide you with proof of completion, such as a receipt or a digital transaction statement.

Simple Ways to Remove Smoke Odor from Car

25th January 2022
"Smoke isn't a timid creature. Its scent has an incredible ability to find its way into our clothes, carpets, and furnishings."

Smoke isn't a timid creature. Its scent has an incredible ability to find its way into our clothes, carpets, and furnishings.

Despite this, most people think that it has one of the most terrible fragrances, comparable odors like petrol and sulfur. With no doubt, its scent also doesn’t go easily.

So here are some basic ways to remove the smoke odor from the car:

Remove the culprit

Remove any traces of cigarette residue or ash from your vehicle. That's correct, clean out your car, even the contents of your ashtray.

Spray your ashtray with a multi-surface cleaner and place it outside your car.

Recirculate the air

Spray freshener on the soft parts in your car, particularly the seats and seatbacks, to help remove the smoke odor.

Then, open all of your car's doors and turn the vents to "recirculate." Allow at least an hour for the air to circulate throughout the system.

Sprinkle some baking soda

Baking soda is an excellent odor absorber. Begin by sprinkling it on all of your car's soft spots (even between the seats and on the interior side of the roof).

You might feel a little like you're vandalizing your own car here but go with it. Allow the baking soda to rest for 36 hours before vacuuming it up.

Because baking soda tends to adhere to your seats, you'll probably need to vacuum repeatedly.

Replace your in-cabin air filter

If you've never changed your air filter, you'll be surprised at how much dirt, dust, and odor it collects within.

To replace it, first, remove everything from your glove box, then slide the glovebox off its pivots to completely remove it.

You shouldn't need any tools for this on most car models. Remove the smoke-saturated air filter and replace it with a new one. It's really that simple.
