After reading this, you’ll never look at a banana in the same way again!

Image
Bananas contain three natural sugars – sucrose, fructose and glucose as well as fiber. We know that bananas give us an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy. Although, energy alone isn’t the only way that bananas can help us keep fit and healthy. It has been proven to help overcome and even prevent a number of illnesses and issues, helping it become the number one fruit with the world’s leading athletes – after reading this we should be saying ‘a banana a day keeps the Doctor away’ Read on to learn how the humble banana can help in our every day lives and improve our physical and mental health: DEPRESSION: Following recent research by MIND (a well respected mental health charity) carried out on a group of people suffering from depression, they reported that the people surveyed said they felt much better after simply eating a banana.

Is Killbeat Parting ways with R2Bees?

Image
Talented and top Ghanaian producer, Killbeatz who has been with R2Bees since the inception of their career by producing their breakthrough song, “I Dey Mad” and countless hit songs for the group, seems to be looking elsewhere now. Killbeatz has been producing international hits for Fuse ODG which started with his “Azonto” song. Since, Killbeatz has been seen gallivanting with Fuse ODG to shows and tours around the world which probably led to the signing of Itz Tiffany to Fuse ODG’s label. Exclusive gist that just dropped on our desk has it that Killbeatz may or may not work with R2Bees anymore but signing as a full member of Fuse ODG’s Off The Ground squad. From what we know, business is booming for Fuse ODG and the Afrobeats scene is getting bigger everyday, moreover out there, the music scene is well-developed and planned so producers don’t just get respect but are paid good for their jobs unlike what we have here. Fuse ODG is currently signed to a major label...

The Rap Doctor get butterflies on Releasing his New Song..Okyeame Kwame

Image
 After doing mainstream music for over decade, and putting out chart-topping bangers,The Rap Doctor, Okyeame Kwame, still has butterflies in his tummy anytime he is getting close to the release of a new song. In an exclusive chit chat with him, he’s been telling me just how tensed he is ahead of the release of a new single It’s Your Time. To prepare the minds of his die-hard funs forsuch an eventual full blown anthem, he asked me  to continuously tell them about how he can’t really fathom why it is so even after years of doing professional music. A thorough act with numerous awards to his credit, he burst onto the scene in the late 90's, and became part of what would later become one of hiplife’s most revered group, Akyeame. Both acts has  gone their separate ways, with Kwame having a major career boost that has seen him become a favourable face for endorsements. He’s also grown into the top echelons of Ghana’s music industry, and is currently one of five people asked t...

Chop Better ...Live Longer

Image
Quickly ask yourself: What did you eat today? Now tell me how you actually feel. If you’re complaining of stress, anxiety, depression, aches and pains, foggy thinking, or just a general lack of energy, a new medical theory will blow your mind. The chances are that those disease-like symptoms are all the result of what’s called hidden food allergies. Reverse My Disease says there is a way to stop them: By Eating Right This is what Ken Drew found out when he was lucky enough to be recommended to medical practitioner Dr. Patel. Patel is considered something of a genius, and has been called a modern day Louis Pasteur. You’ve heard of him, of course—Pasteur figured out how to keep milk from getting spoiled. Dr. Patel is like a Louis Pasteur for keeping your body from getting spoiled from chronic diseases. “Foggy thinking, slightly constipated, heart pain, stiff joint, lack of libido…you name it. It’s part of getting old,” you say. “It’s just stress.” Is it though? Most ...

I Smell Wutah Koby and Wutah Afriyie coming together soon

Image
Daniel Morris, popularly known as Kobby, of Wutah fame has advised his former group mate, Kwadwo Osei Afriyie to come home if he misses him. Afriyie had said in an interview on Joy FM that he misses his former group mate, Kobby after some years of parting ways. Reacting to the confession in an interview during an interview on Showbiz Today on Hitz FM with Mic Gizo, Kobby urged his former group mate to approach him if he really misses him. He stressed that he has no issues with Afriyie and therefore if he truly misses him, he can give him a call or perhaps visit him at home. “He is my brother and I don’t have any problem with him but I believe that if he misses me he would give me a call or probably come home,” he said. Wutah separated just when they gained prominence on the Ghanaian music scene with several hit songs including 'Kotosa' which enjoyed heavy radio rotations. After they separated, there have been numerous calls for them to come back together...
