Speed of time is a fluid thing

December already

The last month of the year is upon us, quick and slow in equal measure.

It is said that time flies when you are having fun. And drags on leaden feet at other times. Everything is fluid, and what we think, it becomes. The speed at which time passes is directly related to what we have been doing with it.

The world in fact is nothing but a manifestation of our own thoughts. It is our perception that creates the world – good, bad or indifferent. Or a medley of all three in reality.

The last month is one for thoughtfulness and reflection on the year that’s ending, and a reminder to quickly roll up your sleeves figuratively and complete unfinished agendas, the tasks and goals you had set for yourself at the start of the year.

December – the month for taking stock and tying up loose ends. Make the most of it, and make it quick, before it runs out.

GETTING AROUND TOWN

Tour operators, forex, visa assistance, helplines...

Bengaluru is a traveller’s delight. It starts with the air conditioned Volvo buses and the pre-paid taxi counter at the airport. Not to mention, the pre-paid auto counters at the city’s railway stations. But the finest example is the ease with which you can navigate the central business district of MG Road and around with the Big 10 buses. You can hop on and hop off at any point after your shopping expedition. But the finest experience will be the first reach of the Namma Metro train running from Old Madras Road to MG Road. Happy travels.

Parks, landmarks, places of religious interest...

WithBengaluru, the sobriquets keep getting added up. From Air Conditioned City to Aviation Capital to Garden City, this small town turned technopolis has added a new word to the American lexicon: ‘Bangalored’. It means ‘to lose one’s job’ as a result of off shoring work to India. That’s not all. The city is emerging as a medical tourism hub in India by offering ‘First World Service at Third World Cost’. What’s more, the best and the brightest multinationals are spicing up the retail scene by test-marketing large format stores like Reebok, Levi’s, Adidas, Esprit and Nautica. It’s become a ‘yuppie heaven’. Now that’s yet another sobriquet for the city. With the Metro Rail opening in phases, things are getting better by the day. Visit the city and be bowled over.

HIT THE HIGH NOTES

Pubs, clubs, lounge bars...

The

city is famous for its bars and pubs.

It’s called the Beer Capital of India. With good reason. But the best reason to pub hop?

It’s cosmopolitan crowd and the niche pubs that serve a select clientele. There are lounge spaces for the ladies, retro lovers and jazz enthusiasts. Not to mention, resto-bars, sports bars, roof-top bars, hookah bars, dance bars and cigar lounges for the casual and adventurous. Not to mention, the city’s first wine boutique pub. Reason enough to rewind, reboot and restart.

•Alcohol may not be served at some of these places, as per Supreme Court regulation. Please call the pub/restaurant to confirm.

ExErcisE & Vitamin B dEficiEncy

Perfect Bounce, helmed by Dr. Richa Singh throws light on the function of Vitamin B12 in the body.

Perfect Bounce, the renowned physiotherapy centre in Bangalore, has been playing a key role in the wellness segment.

Now its Founder, leading physiotherapy exponent Dr Richa Singh explains the significance of Vitamin B12 and the role it plays in a number of different processes in the body, including energy production, amino acid and DNA synthesis, blood cell formation, and brain and nerve cell function.

“A lifestyle that consists of physical activity and proper nutrition is important to your overall quality of life, more than just the benefit of weight loss. The truth is that physical activity and nutrition are essential to a healthy body and a healthy mind,” explains Dr. Richa.

She further details, “Food gives you energy, and you need energy to exercise. After you exercise you need food to restore your energy. The best energy comes from glucose, which your body extracts from carbohydrates. The body requires several nutrients to function properly and respond well to your exertion in the gym or the outdoors.”

Feeling unmotivated to work out? You might be exhausted, but there’s also a chance that a deficiency in the different forms of vitamin B makes exercise especially difficult for you.

Symptoms of Vit B deficiency:

When you exercise with a Vitamin B deficiency, you might feel fatigued or weak. In especially bad scenarios, you could injure yourself or not recover properly.

WELLNESS FEATURE
BANGALORE 2022 | DECEMBER FIRST HALF | 66

The relationship between Vitamin B9 (Folate) or Vitamin B12 deficiency and exercise is an especially important one to consider if you’re someone who is prone to being deficient, such as vegans or people with digestive problems.

Symptoms of anemia that could negatively affect your exercise routine include fatigue, shortness of breath, muscle weakness, trouble walking, nausea, diarrhea, dizziness, trouble balancing and an irregular heartbeat.

When you’re not getting enough Vitamin B and you exercise, weak muscles or dizziness could increase your chance of injury, and lack of oxygen to your cells means a longer recovery time between workouts.

In addition, Vitamin B12 deficiency can increase your chances of having skin numbness and tingling, poor mental health, as well as decreased cognitive function, and poor coordination.

Food sources of Vitamin B:

Most adults need about 400 micrograms of folate a day. Foods that are rich in Folate/ Vitamin B9 include:

• Dark leafy greens

• Liver

• Rice

• Barley

• Sprouts

• Wheat Germ

• Nuts & Fruits

• Fruit Juice, esp Orange Juice.

Foods rich in Vitamin B12 include:

Eggs, milk, meat, shellfish and fortified breakfast cereals.

One of the reason vegans and strict vegetarians run the risk of being deficient in vitamin B12 is that most of its sources are animal-based foods. Adults need approximately 2.4 micrograms of vitamin B12 a day.

Why should older adults pay more attention to vitamin B12? The physiology of vitamin B12 is complex. In order for your body to absorb naturally occurring vitamin B12, digestive processes in the stomach and small intestine must break down the proteins that bind the vitamin. Gastric acid releases vitamin B12 from the food that you consume, which becomes a problem for some older adults because they produce less stomach acid as they age, thereby increasing their risk for B12 deficiencies. Specifically, the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey estimated that 3.2% of adults over age 50 have seriously low levels of B12, and up to 20% may have a borderline deficiency.
