Beykoz University Gastronomy and Culinary Arts Department academic staff member Prof. Dr. Y. Birol Saygı says that aging alone is not the cause of cognitive decline. Respect, “When significant memory loss occurs among older people, it is often not due to aging, but to organic disorders, brain damage or neurological diseases.

Where did the hot pepper come from? Why do we love it so much? What are the benefits?
Those who eat the crispy fresh. They pour the powder over all kinds of dishes, from rice to salad. It is indisputable that hot peppers have an important place in almost all cuisines of the world. Some dishes cannot be considered without pain. We know that it is also beneficial for our health. There are those who make their diet and even drink their pills.

Still, the first question that comes to mind is: why do we eat something that burns our tongue and hurts physically? What do we have, what are we talking about?

Let’s first look at its physical effects. The moment pain touches our tongue, a signal is sent to our brains that our mouth is on fire. Adrenaline is starting to be secreted, our heart beats faster. Our lips swell, our cheeks turn red. At the same time, we start to sweat as the body goes into cooling mode. Then, endorphins are spreading in our body to deal with the pain. We may be in pain, but we are excited and happy.

Apple shapes, rejoice! We’re here right now to chat about how you, yes you can dress your shape and play up your most favorite features. Before we get started, let’s get one thing straightened out—inverted triangles and apple are somewhat synonymous. Both shapes are known for their broader shoulders, but typically, true apple shapes carry a little more in their midsection while inverted triangles do not. No matter what features you want to flaunt (or conceal), we’ve got you covered with this 5-step guide for dressing your apple-shape figüre.

SO WHAT’S AN APPLE SHAPE, ANYWAY?

• You are generally well-proportioned
• Your shoulders are broader than your hips
• You are not necessarily as curvy through your hips
• You don’t have a well-defined waistline (If you do, you’re likely an hourglass!)

GUIDELINES FOR DRESSING THE APPLE SHAPE

When it comes to styling the apple shape, life is sweet! Apple and inverted triangle shapes look best when playing up their full bust, their amazing legs and/or their arms. In general, silhouettes that don’t rely on a traditionally structured waistline are your hardest working pieces.

1. START AT THE TOP!

Must-Have Tops For Apple and Inverted Triangle Figures

Good news! The world’s most comfy tops also happen to look amazing on the classic apple frame. Your power pieces include:

• Breezy A-line silhouettes
• Flowy tunics
• Relaxed, boyfriend button-ups
• V-neck anything

Looking for more structure? Choose a substantial fabric that will streamline your look from your bust through your hips. Fabrics like raw silk, linen, tweed, gabardine and thicker cotton (avoid jersey—it can be thin!) will all do the trick.

So, what about sleeve length?

This is where rules go out the window. If you love your arms and shoulders and are proud of those push-ups, go strapless or sleeveless! If you prefer to cover up, try a more fitted sleeve to help balance your fuller bust and midsection.If you’re on the curvy side, elongate your neck with plunging (or shallow) V-neck or scoop-necks. More of a “downplay” kind of girl? Look for a higher neckline in a dark shade like black or navy.

2. THEN, ADD LAYERS

The Best Jackets For Apple and Inverted Triangle-Shaped Figures
As is true with every shape, where your jacket hem hits will make all the difference. Apple shapes look great in any vest, coat or jacket that hits at the hip or upper thigh. A-line coats or straight, knee-length trench styles (without the waist belt) will be super and you can pull off a poncho like it’s your job.

3. SAY YES, TO THE DRESS(ES)

Perfect Dresses For The Apple Shape
If you love a great dress—you’re in luck! Strapless styles look great on you. Maxi styles with a lower neckline are super flattering, and a wrap dress can be your secret weapon (avoid “wardrobe malfunction” moments by wearing a cami underneath). If you like your legs, go mini all the time. If not, then knee-length shift and sheath styles look great too! A-line styles are great for curvy apples. And when in doubt, diagonal stripes and darker colors are always slimming.

4. LAST—BUT NOT LEAST

The Apple-Shapes Favorite Jeans & Pants
Take your pick! Skinny jeans and leggings look great on your shape, especially when paired with a breezy tunic, oversized sweater or generous button-down. Flares with heels are great for elongating your silhouette. If you have long legs, feel free to wear bootcut or flared pants with flats. Remember that the hem should either come to the top of your heel, or all the way to the ground.

Classic trouser fit, cropped, ankle… you can pretty much pull them all off! As a good rule of thumb, if your top is very breezy, you’ll want to grab a more structured or skinny pant to balance your look.

5. DON’T FORGET ACCESSORIES

Outfit Toppers For Apple and Inverted Triangle Shapes
Love bracelets? Statement rings? Oversized earrings? You’re in luck! Necklaces too, but since dressing for any shape is all about balancing proportions, you’ll want to make sure to draw the eye up and down with a longer length, or keep it light and delicate.

One Last Thought On Body Shapes

Everybody and everybody is different. If you’re not an apple shape through and through, think of mixing and matching shapes to find the right fit for you. These dressing guidelines are best used as a starting point!

Yes – you heard us right. This creamy beverage is made from a combination of nut milks and raw cacao and retains its ‘raw’ state by being gently warmed via the friction of a high-speed blender. The recipe is from Sigourney’s personal trainer, the raw food guru, Sigourney tells us about this skin-loving, beauty-giving hot chocolate…

“I first met Ricardo when I interviewed him for a  and I’ve been training with him ever since. By adopting some of his suggestions – like minimizing dairy, sugar, and processed foods, and incorporating as much raw food as possible into my diet, I feel better than I ever have. This “hot” chocolate is not exactly steaming as it’s gently warmed in the blender, but it’s such a delicious option for chilly nights when you crave something sweet and indulgent post-dinner. I love that it’s dairy- and sugar-free and you don’t have to heat anything in the microwave or on the stovetop. It’s also jam-packed with antioxidants to protect your cells from ageing and skin-loving vitamins and minerals.

‘Raw cacao is one of the strongest antioxidants around – it’s stronger than acai,  macqui, blueberries, and most superfoods!’ says Ricardo. ‘It’s the mother of all beauty foods – it’s high in iron (great for hair growth) and magnesium which helps put your body into an alkaline state. It also contains nuts that are also rich in magnesium and contain vitamin E which is great for the skin,’ he says, adding that he gets the models he trains to have three tablespoons of raw cacao a day when he’s getting them primed for fashion week.

Happy blending!”

INGREDIENTS

Ricardo recommends using organic ingredients where possible. You can find them at organic stores.

• ¼ cup of hazelnuts
• ¼ cup of brazil nuts
• ¼ cup of almonds
• ¼ cup of macadamias
• 1 tablespoon of raw mesquite powder
• 1 tablespoon of raw cacao powder
• ¼ teaspoon of raw vanilla powder
• ½ teaspoon of cinnamon powder
• 1 tablespoon of raw coconut oil
• 3 tablespoons of raw honey
• 2 cups of raw coconut water.

RECIPE

1. Blend all the ingredients in a high speed blender, such as a for 2 minutes.
2. Serve it straight away. Makes three servings.

Hot tips:

If you don’t have a high speed blender to really pulverise the nuts properly, instead you can use any nut milk and raw cacao powder, or 2tbsp of nut butter with some water.

If you keep this recipe in the fridge it makes an amazing chocolate sauce.

You are what you eat, right? For women over 50, eating the right foods becomes even more important to avoid health problems.

Jason Ewoldt, RDN, LD, a wellness dietitian at Mayo Clinic Healthy Living Program, often helps women modify their diets to stay in step with the changes taking place in their bodies. Decades of research have armed medical professionals like him with the nutritional knowledge that can help women stay vibrant as they age.

Ewoldt suggests that women over 50 target three important nutrients to combat the most common changes caused by aging.

1. Calcium for bone health

Osteoporosis gets a fair amount of attention, and most older women understand that the risk of developing this bone disease increases with age. In fact, 1 in 3 women over 50 is at risk of a bone break caused by osteoporosis. Osteoporosis affects men, too, but not at such high rates.

“We absorb less calcium as we age, and some women’s ability to tolerate dairy — the best sources of calcium — also decreases as they get older,” Ewoldt says. “Dark leafy greens and calcium-fortified orange juice are other good sources.”

Women over 50 need 1,200 milligrams of calcium daily. Use the Nutrition Facts label on food products to keep track of your intake.

2. Protein for healthy muscle mass

Older women tend to sit more, exercise less. That compounds a natural aging process called sarcopenia, which is the loss of muscle mass. By the time women near 80 years, they may have lost as much as half of their skeletal muscle mass. Eating enough protein reduces the impact of that muscle wasting.

“Healthy plant-based diets that don’t include meat, a major source of protein, can still provide plenty of protein if you make savvy choices,” says Ewoldt. He recommends choosing more soy, quinoa, eggs, dairy, nuts, seeds and beans.

Your protein needs depend on how much you weigh. For women over 50, experts recommend 1 to 1.5 grams of protein per kilogram of weight (1 kilogram = 2.2 pounds). If you weigh 140 pounds, for instance, you would need at least 63 grams of protein a day.

3. Vitamin B-12 for brain function

Ewoldt says that as women age, they absorb fewer nutrients from their food. One key nutrient they may not be absorbing enough of is vitamin B-12, which is essential for maintaining both healthy red blood cells and brain function.

“The best sources of vitamin B-12 are eggs, milk, lean meats, fish and fortified foods like cereals and grains,” says Ewoldt. “Vegans, in particular, will need to choose more fortified foods, but even elderly people who eat all foods may have difficulty absorbing enough vitamin B-12.”

While the recommended daily intake of vitamin B-12 for women over 50 is 2.4 micrograms a day, Ewoldt suggests you talk with your doctor to see if you also need a supplement.

Ewoldt offers three tips to help women over 50 get the nutrition they need.

• Make whole foods the foundation of your diet. “Focusing on whole grains, fruits and veggies will help avoid a lot of common problems that come with age,” says Ewoldt.
• Drink before you’re thirsty. The way your body detects thirst changes as you age. Says Ewoldt, “Make sure to drink plenty of water, even if you don’t feel thirsty. Carry a water bottle, and drink a glass with every meal.”
• Make an appointment with food. (And keep it.) Ewoldt often suggests that his clients create concrete plans that lay out exactly how they’ll get key nutrients. He adds, “Write the plan on a calendar. By simply making an ‘appointment’ with that apple, you’re more likely to eat it.”
