ATTENTION GIRLS: Scientists Discovered The Reason Why You Should Burn Your Bras Immediately!

Bras are considered a necessity by most women. Although there are social media trends that sparked the ‘No-Bra Movement’, there are still women who prefer to wear these undergarments. 

Women find comfort when wearing a bra. However, a French sports scientist has claimed that it actually does more harm than good.

French sport scientist Jean-Denis Rouillon led a team that conducted a study about the real effects of not wearing bras.  

With the help of 330 participants aged 18 to 35, Rouillon and his team at the University of Franche-Comte discovered that bras do nothing to “help support the chest, reduce back pain or prevent breast sagging”. 

They claim that wearing bras causes collagen deficiency, resulting in the sagging of the breasts. They said that going bra-less improves the breasts’ elasticity and lift. The team also claims that bras restricts blood circulation.

“Medically, physiologically, anatomically – breasts gain no benefit from being denied gravity. On the contrary, they get saggier with a bra,” Rouillon said in an interview with French Info.

However, Rouillon clarified that generalization should not be drawn from their conclusions. He stated that they only used 330 women in their study. He stresses that what happened to this 330 women who underwent his study may not be applicable every woman. 

He claims that his 15-year-long study still needs further examination to fully understand the negative and positive effect of wearing bras.

Meanwhile, Healthy Journal PH suggested these reasons why wearing bras could pose a health risk.

1.)    Restricts Circulation

Tight bras may constrict the nerves found in the arms. This could affect blood circulation, especially if the bra has an underwire. Sports bras that are too tight may affect blood circulation when worn regularly.

2.)    Causes Irritation

Straps and hooks can irritate the skin, especially when the bra is worn in an improper way. A bra that is too tight could cause scratches and itchiness.

3.)    Hyperpigmentation

The irritated skin could easily darken.

Here Are the Reason to Never Shower With Your Partner, You Will Not Believe in #5!

Showering with your significant other: if you’ve never tried it before and you’re thinking about it… THINK AGAIN! 

Yes, you guys are in love, you want to explore new things with your partner, but keep it in the bedroom. 

You want proof? Fine. Here are 12 reasons why you and your special someone should NOT shower together.

1. Wet and wild shower s*x

While it sounds good on paper, realistically it's not all it's cracked up to be. Just imagine this: wet bodies, wet tiles, weird positions. 

That’s one recipe that would take you straight to the emergency room.

2. Shower time = Solo time

There are a lot of us who LOVE shower time. It’s a personal space haven where you’re bare and unleashed. If you love to think, reflect, and meditate in the shower, imagine trying to do that with another person rubbing you nonstop. 

Hint: It's not going to work.

3. Not all showers are made equal.

Sure, there are showers that are inviting and large. But if you have a shower room that can fit only one person, it’s best to keep it that way. 

Again, save yourself a trip to the emergency room.

4. You’re in there to get clean, not dirty.

Apart from some R&R, everyone goes to the shower to clean up. If there’s someone bugging as you clean yourself, you won’t get the job done properly.

5. Have you ever seen shower heads?

Most shower heads can service fit one person at a given time. It's best that you keep it that way.

6. Shaving gets trickier… and deadlier.

Imagine shaving with someone next to you, super close. The floor is wet and slippery. What if they trip? 

7. Your man will definitely want to wash your body.

You might have sparkly smooth boobs and butt cheeks after he’s done focusing on them, but that’s it. Everything else will just be soaked in water. 

You call that a bath?

8. Shower BJ? More Like Waterboarding!

Imagine your knees on a cold, hard, slippery floor as water flows down your face while you hold your breath. 

Sounds like torture? That's because it is.

9. Lifting against shower wall

You think that’s s*xy? Well, think about your trip to the hospital and how you’re going to explain it to the doctor.

10. Water ain't lube

Not everything wet is a lubricant. Actually, water can clean lubricants out. You think it’s gonna be slippery when wet? THINK AGAIN!

11. Water Preference

Some like it cold, some like it hot, some like it just right. Not everyone is Goldilocks, dear.

12. Passing Gas

Enclosed space + farts, need we say more?

What do you think about showering with your significant other? Yay or nay? Tell us what you think in the comments section below!

Here Are a Few Health Benefits You Can Get From Eating Bananas Twice a Day. We Didn't Even Know That #2 Exists!

There’s a saying that goes “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” What people don’t know is that there’s a fruit way better than apples which can truly keep you from visiting the doctor all the time.

Bananas are abundant in our country and are in fact used in a lot of our dishes here. Some examples include the famous desserts banana cue and turon as well as savory dishes such as pochero and arroz ala cubana. 

Apart from these delicious meals, bananas also contain plenty of nutrients upon consumption. Eating two bananas per day will give you all the benefits that this fruit can give to your body. 

Here are a few of the health benefits bananas can give you:

1. Energy source- people who work out on a regular basis eat at least two bananas an hour before hitting the gym. Due to the abundance of vitamins, minerals, and potassium in a banana, the fruit can help a person increase muscle endurance and prevent cramps. 

2. Prevents Depression- Due to the tryptophan found in bananas, the body converts the substance into serotonin, which is a chemical known to induce a happy feeling, once you eat the fruit. 

3. Lowers blood pressure- Because bananas are low in sodium and high in potassium, it is the perfect snack to consume if you suffer from hypertension.

4. Solves digestion problems- people who are either constipated or suffering from loose bowel syndrome are allowed to eat bananas in order to normalize their digestion.

5. Helps cure anemia- bananas are rich in iron which is why doctors suggest anemic patients to snack on this yellow fruit.

6. Soothes PMS- due to the B vitamins that bananas contain, women who are experiencing pain and mood swings from PMS are advised to eat plenty of this fruit.

7. Soothes stomach ulcers- since this fruit is soft and has a mushy texture, patients who have stomach ulcers eat bananas often since they are not allowed to eat a lot of other food. 

8. Provides relief from heartburn- Bananas are considered as a natural antacid. Eating bananas when you are suffering from heartburn has been proven to be effective in providing relief.

Her Belly Started Growing AFTER Giving Birth and What Doctor's Found Inside Her is Truly Terrifying!

Every woman goes through a life or death situation every time they give birth. Aside from the excruciating pain they feel, they could also suffer from complications which might lead to their imminent death. 

Yulia Selina, a 34-year-old from Saint Petersburg in Russia, was about to give birth and wanted to do it the natural way. However, doctors dismissed this once they saw that the child might not be able to survive if they push through with natural birth. Instead, they asked Yulia to agree to an emergency caesarean section. Yulia’s daughter, whom she named Dima, was born successfully after the procedure but they didn’t expect what would happen to her next. 

While recovering from the C-section, Yulia started to feel worse than the day before. “My belly started to swell. It even grew bigger than it was when I was 9 months pregnant. Every movement caused me horrible pain. At first, I thought it was just a natural reaction to the operation,” she said in a statement. “But then I couldn’t even sit up anymore. The pain would make me scream,” added Yulia. 

Despite these complaints, Yulia’s doctors convinced her that it was a normal thing for C-section moms to feel pain but Yulia knew that something was terribly wrong with her. 

“I understood that, if I waited any longer for the doctors to help me, my children would be left without a mother,” she noted.

After a day of consulting with medical experts, she was rushed to the emergency room where doctors were able to remove around 2.5 liters of pus from her abdomen together with an operating room sheet that has been accidentally left inside her belly. 

“I’m trying, I want to forgive and excuse those who did this to me, but then I think about how my family could have lost me forever. I would like to settle this in a civilized way,” she stated.

Yulia is now trying to recover and asked for the help of lawyers to file a case against the hospital in order to prevent a similar case from happening again.

Here is a video of Yulia’s ordeal:

Want to Know Why Women Poop Too Much When They’re On Their Period? Find Out Here!

Women go through menstruation every month. During this period, they experience mood swings, an erratic appetite, and lowered energy. 

However, another noticeable with women during menstruation is that they poop more than the usual. 

Here, we will tackle different reasons why women poop too much whenever they’re on their period. 

According to Dr. Rebecca Brightman, the uterus releases prostaglandin during menstruation. This hormone causes smooth muscles to contract, leading to uncomfortable cramps. 

During the menstrual cycle, another hormone called progesterone starts to build in the body during ovulation. It slows down the gastrointestinal tract’s motility causing a bloated and constipated feeling.

Taking Ibuprofen or any other similar nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) to inhibit the release of prostaglandin can help curb excessive pooping. It is better to take it before the first set of cramps hits. 

"Ibuprofen really helps pretty significantly, and that's oftentimes our go-to," according to Dr. Mira Kaga, an internal medicine physician in New Jersey.

"It'll help prevent the cramping, but also diarrhea," she added.

You Will Not Believe What Doctors Found in a Young Boy's Stomach After Eating Hamburgers!

Fiore’s family was spending a normal afternoon on one warm spring day. On that day, they decided to have hamburgers for dinner, but the normal day turned the other way around for them when an incident happened.

The younger son, Anthony, felt a tickle on his throat when he was taking in his burger. He felt an extreme pain in his stomach and said it was like there was a knife stuck in it. His parents then decided to rush him to the hospital as the pain was not getting any better. He went under a CT scan and they detected a small metal wire clogging his throat. The doctors said it may be from the metal brushes used to clean the grills.

When Anthony was taken to surgery, the metal wire turned out to be a BBQ grill brush bristle. Though the surgery went well and the bristle has been removed, Anthony still went under observation as the dirt from the bristle had caused bacteria on his stomach. He had to take in antibiotics for few days in order to eliminate the bacteria. Days after, he was given the permit to go home. According to the doctors, this is not a rare case as there are already cases wherein sharp bristles fall off on the clean grills. 

“Nobody knows the statistics, that's the problem. The only paper published talks about 6 or 7 cases and I believe it's much, much more common," Dr. Aziz Benbrahim of MidState Medical Center Connecticut, USA told CBS News.

There is also a safer way to clean the grill without using metal brushes. You can check it with this video:
