HEALTH BENEFITS OF EATING TOMATO 🍅

 Tomatoes are a nutrient-rich food that offers numerous health benefits when consumed. 

Here are some of the key health benefits of eating tomatoes:

2. Heart Health: Tomatoes' potassium content helps lower blood pressure, reducing the risk of heart disease, strokes, and cardiac arrhythmias.
3. Cancer Prevention: Lycopene and other antioxidants in tomatoes may reduce the risk of certain cancers, such as prostate, breast, lung, and colon cancer.

8. Bone Health: Tomatoes contain calcium, vitamin K, and potassium, supporting bone health and reducing osteoporosis risk.
9. Anti-Inflammatory: Tomatoes' antioxidants and polyphenols reduce inflammation, alleviating conditions like arthritis and asthma.
10. Lowers Cholesterol: The fiber, potassium, and antioxidants in tomatoes help lower LDL (bad) cholesterol levels.

CERVICAL STENOSIS(BLOCKED CERVIX) AND TREATMENT

CERVICAL STENOSIS(BLOCKED CERVIX) AND TREATMENT The cervix is the doorway between your vagina and uterus. It’s the bottom part of your uterus located at the very top of your vagina and looks kind of like a small doughnut.  The opening in the center of the cervix is called the os. The cervix works like a gatekeeper, controlling what is allowed and isn’t allowed through the os. When you aren’t pregnant, your cervix produces mucus, known as vaginal discharge. During most of the month, your cervix produces a thick mucus that clogs up the os, making it difficult for sperm to enter your uterus. When you ovulate, however, your cervix produces a thin, slippery mucus. Your cervix may also soften or change position, and the os may open slightly. This is all a calculated effort to make it easier for sperm to enter your uterus. In the days before your period begins, your cervix may harden or change position. The os may narrow and prepare to close in the event of a pregnancy. If there
