About Me

My photo
I'm a simple Scottish girl with an unusual name and a strange obsession for nail polish! My aim is to capture what the eye sees, with a camera! Too much nail polish and never enough time. I have also started wildlife photography, which I enjoy very much. Welcome to my little world :-)

Health Update

Thanks everyone :-)

  1. ...Ananka, I'm sorry to hear of your health issues. I believe that I'm a great deal older than you are and I have a long list of health problems too. A few year years back I both of my eyes fixed by cataract surgery. My distance vision is great, but I need reading glass to see anything up close. Take care and I hope that you will be doing well soon.

    1. It is one of these things isn't it! I know age comes with health issues! Yes my distance in that eye is very good now! Thanks hoping all will be okay for 2023!

  2. Hello Ananka, goodness me it's certainly been quite a year for you health-wise, let us hope that 2023 will bring you much better health.

    There is a good article about "Turmeric, Ginger & Cinnamon: The Healing Power of Spices" which lists the benefits and the cautions needed when taking these spices. You can read it using this link:

    Hope the article helps ...
    Take care of yourself, my good wishes to you and your family.

    All the best Jan

  5. Yo tomaba cúrcuma es genial pero empezó mancharme los dientes. Eso si tomó canela todos los días es muy bueno para la diabetes.

  8. Dear Ananka! I'm so sorry you've been sick for almost all of 2022. I hope 2023 will be much happier for you.
    I'm glad that your whole family has recovered, especially your little daughter.
    I don't like Turmeric, Ginger and Cinnamon. I think they taste terribly.

    1. I know! It has been a bad year for me! I really hope so too. Thanks Irina, Ailith is a lot better :-D

  9. Tumeric is great but it causes diarrhoea and iron deficiency. Baby gingers are a better option and taste better

    1. It hasn't had the effect on me! I have to take extra iron anyway! Oh baby ginger? I must investigate :-D

  10. Tengo colesterol, no mucho, tomo la pastilla más pequeña que hay. Y me gusta la canela, dicen que ayuda a bajarlo. No sé si será verdad Ananka pero yo la echo en el yogur que tomo por la noche. De la cúrcuma, jengibre no se nada.
    Espero que el año que va a comenzar sea mucho mejor para tí y tu familia que este.
    Abrazos.

  12. My goodness. You have been through so much in such a short span of time. I'm so sorry. I really hope that 2023 is a better year health wise. I'm very happy to hear that you have been focusing on your health by taking tumeric and ginger. I've heard that this is good for the body and one of my friends has recommended I start doing something similar. <3

  14. I'm glad your health problems are improving. The truth is that I know turmeric as a cooking species, not as a medicine, but it sure has many benefits.
    I wish you that the new year comes full of health for you and yours.

    1. I am too! Thanks Fernando, I am feeling a lot better. Turmeric is great for cooking and has several health benefits too. Thanks :-D

  15. I've heard good things about turmeric too but have never taken it a supplement. I often wonder if that helps. They say different spices and whatnot have medicinal effects. I am sorry to hear it was a rough year health wise but you bring a lot of joy to others with your photos and stuff so thanks! And hope your daughter and partner are better soon!

  17. Lamento profundamente, que tenha tido um ano tão turbulento, Ananka! Eu desde a pandemia, também ainda não consegui recuperar as minhas rotinas de antes! Continuo a ter muito cuidado, com tudo o que entra em casa e pode infetar a minha mãe, com Covid! Ela tem insuficiência cardíaca e respiratória crónicas! Teve Covid este ano em Maio... e o mesmo deu-lhe dermatite que levou uma série de meses a tratar... apesar das vacinas em dia!
    Agora estamos numa fase de haver muitas infeções respiratórias combinadas... há que se ter cuidado! Todos nós andamos com o sistema imunitário alterado... com os efeitos do covid... e com o efeito do uso de máscaras, que nos tornam mais vulneráveis! No entanto eu nesta fase, não me posso dar ao luxo de adoecer... pelo que continuo usando mascara no Inverno!
    Eu bebo chá de maçã com canela... mas beber muitos chás, é um habito que me ficou dos tempos da pandemia... pois são um desintoxicante natural do corpo... mas realmente não estou a par dos efeitos da canela! Estou sempre a trocar de chás, pois mesmo sendo produtos naturais, todos apresentam prós e contras... mesmo apesar de tomar os mais inofensivos...
    Estimo as suas rápidas melhoras, Ananka, fazendo votos de que 2023 seja um ano bem mais sereno, relativo a problemas de saúde!
    Beijinhos! Bom final de domingo!
    Ana
