Know your portion size
'You are what you eat' some say, and to eat healthy you need to eat the right amount. Often you may have come across the word 'portion' in articles related to healthy eating, e.g. one portion of veggies and two portions of fruits, etc. But like many you wonder what is the difference between servings and portions and how best can it be used it in your diet?
Clinical nutritionist and director, Whole Foods, Delhi, Ishi Khosla clarifies the concept of 'portion' and incorporating it in your diet.
Expert speak: There's no concept of good or bad food in nutrition science. What matters is the amount of food you consume, something that can be measured in terms of portion or size of serving.
Incidentally, portion sizes have undergone a considerable change over the years and continue to do so even today. The trend, in general, has been towards consuming larger and larger food portions (the expanding waistlines are proof of this!). The human mind seems to count the number of portions rather than the portion size. For example, when people say they have only one chapatti for lunch/dinner, they rarely ever discuss its size.
Short-term studies have also shown that people eat more when confronted with larger portion sizes. A study by Diliberti et al in a restaurant setting showed that when a pasta entrée was served in different portion sizes on different days, people ate larger amounts on being served larger portions, regardless of the taste! Also, studies show that people do not adjust or eat less in subsequent meals, if they have already had larger portions.
Technically, a 'portion' means the amount of food you choose to eat at one time-at a restaurant, from a package or at home. A 'serving' size indicates the calories and nutrients in a certain serving listed under a product's 'Nutrition Facts' or a single unit or a commonly regarded unit of food.
The serving size is not the recommended amount of food to be eaten. Sometimes, the portion size and serving size match; sometimes, they don't. For example, one slice of bread=one serving of bread. But the number of slices you eat would be the number of portions you have eaten. So, if you have two slices, you would have consumed two portions. So, how do we recognise what's the right amount of food to eat on a regular basis? Learn to recognise standard serving sizes as they help you judge how much you are eating. It may also help to compare serving sizes to common objects. For example, 100 g of meat or poultry is about the size of a deck of cards or the palm of your hand.

When tomorrow starts without me
When tomorrow starts without me,
And I'm not there to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
All filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry
The way you did today,
While thinking of the many things,
We didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you,
And each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too;
But when tomorrow starts without me,
Please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name,
And took me by the hand,
And said my place was ready,
In heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave behind
All those I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away,
A tear fell from my eye
For all my life, I'd always thought,
I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for,
So much left yet to do,
It almost seemed impossible
That I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays,
The good ones and the bad,
I thought of all the love we shared,
And all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday,
Just even for a while,
I'd say good-bye and kiss you
And maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized,
That this could never be,
For emptiness and memories,
Would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things,
I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did,
My heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through heaven's gates,
I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me,
From His great golden throne,
He said, "This is eternity,
And all I've promised you.
Today your life on earth is past,
But here life starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow,
But today will always last,
And since each day's the same way
There's no longing for the past.
You have been so faithful,
So trusting and so true.
Though there were times you did some things
You knew you shouldn't do.
But you have been forgiven
And now at last you're free.
So won't you come and take my hand
And share my life with me?"
So when tomorrow starts without me,
Don't think we're far apart,
For every time you think of me,
I'm right here, in your heart.

Why 'World No Tobacco Day' is observed
Wednesday, May 25, 2011
World No Tobacco Day (also popularly known as World Tobacco Day, and Anti Tobacco Day) is observed worldwide on 31st May every year to encourage tobacco users to abstain from consumption of all forms of tobacco for a period of 24 hours. World Tobacco Day was initiated in the year 1987, when the World Health Assembly (WHA) of World Health Organization (WHO) passed a resolution WHA40.38 which ultimately formed World No Tobacco Day (WNTD). The primary objective of WNTD was to enlighten people about the deadly components of tobacco and its repercussions.
World No Tobacco Day is ardently supported by governments, individuals, non-profit organizations, public health organizations, tobacco industry and even smokers. Tobacco Day is celebrated as an awareness day to draw people’s attention about the negative effects of tobacco. Seminars and events on World Tobacco Day are organized by health organizations and governments while emphasizing on punch lines and pictures to persuade people to quit consuming tobacco permanently. Creating and distributing brochures, posters, fliers, press releases, websites and videos are also considered an integral part of the World No Tobacco Day.
Each year, on this day, the WHO chooses a theme for the day that carries global messages to quit smoking. Many of the themes are intended to reveal facts about tobacco which is usually believed to perplex or mislead people by the tobacco industry through advertisements. Because of such reasons, WHO declared a complete ban on tobacco advertising on May 31, 2008.
Opinions differ on celebration of World Tobacco Day 2011. For many, WNTD is a challenge to create a tobacco free society. On the contrary, some consider it as a futile effort to curb smoking. However, WHO in January 2011, has selected ‘The WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control’ as the theme of Tobacco Day 2011 which is considered the world’s primary tobacco curbing instrument.
World No Tobacco Day 2011 will be celebrated on Tuesday, 31st May. On this specific day, various health organizations, governments and World Health Organization exhibit the latest tobacco-related information and research to create awareness among the public. Also, the WHO presents awards to individuals or organizations that have performed exceptionally performed or contributed to reducing the consumption of tobacco.
In India, World No Tobacco Day is celebrated with in varied ways with great zeal. Health organizations, government and Groups organize camps and events on this occasion to apprise people of early death and other ill-effects of consuming tobacco.
