Exercise is one of the best ways to manage type 2 diabetes. It makes your cells use insulin better and can help keep your blood sugar in a healthy range. It also helps your cells take in that sugar. But if you take insulin or certain diabetes medications, a workout can send your levels too low, a condition called hypoglycemia. Take these steps to keep it in a safe range. Check It Out Before. Test your sugar prior to a workout. It’s generally OK if it’s between 100 mg/dl and 250 mg/dl. If it’s below 100, you’ll need a snack.

As the most common cancer in the United States, skin cancer attracts lots of media exposure, especially during the sun-kissed summer months. But here's a fact that often escapes notice: Melanoma can surface in some of the most unusual places. Like under your toenails. Or behind your ears. Many of us know that cancerous spots can appear in areas that get direct sun, like the face, arms and neck. But body parts that aren't so visible, or as closely inspected, can also harbor unseen spots that may go undetected and, therefore, escape early intervention. "Under the nails is a very concerning area, especially with the common use of gel manicures," which use a product that hardens by curing under ultraviolet lamps, says Dr. Laura Farrington , Medical Oncologist at our hospital outside Chicago . "The direct exposure of UV rays to the hands and nails, especially regularly, may increase the risk of melanoma and other skin cancers in those areas." Even the bottoms

Anita Ebodaghe , the estranged wife of Christ Embassy’s founder, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome , has talked about false prophets who in turn win souls falsely for God. Anita Ebodaghe In her blog article, Anita cautioned many to not be an instrument in the hands of these false prophets who sit down in a place of convinience but tell their members to toil day and night just to get new converts and also to get ‘God’s work’ done. Read the mind blowing blog article she titled “Soul Winning’ below: When people talk about winning souls these days, I feel absolutely concerned for the so-called souls. It looks to me like a lion on a breakfast mission, in search for his hunt; he hides behind the grass for an unwise lamb that would wander away from the herd in search of fresh grass.
