SLEEPING FOR NINE HOURS A NIGHT LINKED TO HIGHER RISK OF EARLY DEATH THAN GETTING LESS THAN SIX HOURS OF SLEEP - STUDY

Image
Sleeping for nine hours or more every night could be linked to a higher risk of early de@th, according to a new study. Researchers tracked the sleeping habits of more than 3,000 people over 30 years and found that those who slept seven to eight hours nightly had the lowest mortality rate. The study recorded 10.57 de@ths per 1,000 people among those sleeping seven to eight hours. The figure rose slightly to 10.97 among those getting fewer than six hours of sleep, while people sleeping more than nine hours recorded the highest rate at 11.27 deaths per 1,000. The researchers said sleeping for longer was associated with a 17 per cent higher risk of dying from any cause, although the precise reasons remain unclear. They noted that people who sleep for longer may be more likely to have high blood pressure and increased inflammation, while excessive sleep could also affect the body’s internal clock, hormonal regulation and immune system. The Taiwanese researchers said sleep durati...

A BIRD AT HAND IS WORTH MORE THAN A MILLION IN THE BUSH - VICTOR TOMBARI URGES OGONIS TO DEMAND AN OGONI GOVERNOR FOR NOW

Image
Ogoni leader and political stakeholder, Victor Tombari Pidomson, has responded to growing calls for the creation of Ogoni State, describing the demand as a brilliant idea but noting that achieving state creation through Nigeria’s democratic system may be a difficult and lengthy process. Speaking with RwGBlog News, Pidomson commended Ogonis for advocating for the creation of an Ogoni State but urged them to first channel their efforts towards producing an Ogoni governor. According to him, securing the governorship would be a more immediate political objective, after which the agitation for state creation could be pursued more vigorously. He stressed that Ogonis should focus on what he described as an achievable political goal before pursuing the longer-term demand for state creation. “A bird at hand is worth more than one million in the bush. The Ogoni should demand for a governor for now,” he said.

NUTRITIONISTS WARNS NIGERIANS AGAINST BOILING EGGS AND RICE TOGETHER

Image
Registered dietician-nutritionists have urged Nigerians to stop boiling unpeeled eggs and rice together in the same pot, warning that the practice could increase the risk of cross-contamination and foodborne infections. The experts explained that Salmonella and E. coli may be present on eggshells and could contaminate rice as both foods cook together. They noted that bacteria may survive while the water is still warming before reaching boiling point. Speaking with PUNCH Healthwise, Registered Dietitian-Nutritionist James Oloyede said rice begins absorbing water as soon as it is placed in the pot, meaning bacteria in contaminated water could be absorbed along with it. Oloyede said, “Cooking egg and rice together in the same pot has been found to be a risk factor in cross-contamination of certain bacteria, especially Salmonella, that can be found on the shell of the egg even after washing with the rice that is being cooked.” “The safest way of cooking egg and rice is to boil ...

Image
An Ogoni filmmaker, Idum Felix, has narrated how he rejected a $40,000 deal to produce adult-content films after discovering the true nature of the project. Felix, while sharing his experience, said the opportunity began in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic when he met a man on Facebook who introduced himself as a filmmaker. According to him, they remained in contact until 2021, when the man offered him a production contract. Felix said the offer initially appeared attractive because he was expected to produce about 10 minutes of a series every week. «“It was indeed a nice deal. I needed money, and I needed to make that money with my craft,” he said.» He explained that after a video call to confirm his identity, they finalised the deal, after which the man sent him $355 along with an agreement. Felix admitted that, excited about the opportunity, he did not initially read the agreement carefully. He said the producer later sent him details of the type of actors he wanted for...
