How to protect our families from inheriting habits which will inevitably come along with genetic chronic illness?

Regular nutrient-rich breakfast, eat sufficient amount of fruits and vegetables [two cups of each].

Encourage small portions of food at a time. However one can have another helping if not satisfied. Drink plenty of water daily [at least three litters a day].

Encourage physical activity during free time instead of TV. Use different cooking methods, including steaming, poaching and grilling instead of frying all the foods. Explain your choices i.e let your children know the value of the food they are eating so they don’t just eat anything.

Doctors tell us that a certain amount of vaginal discharge (mucus produced) is normal. They say that the vaginal walls and uterine cervix contain glands that produce small amounts of fluid that helps to keep the vagina clean.

The fluid is usually clear or milky white and does not have a horrible smell. The increase in the amount of vaginal discharge, and consistency of the fluid, pain, itching can be symptoms of infection.

Women have to make sure that their private parts are kept in good hygiene and if symptoms persist they need to see a physician for proper examination and treatment.

BSc Electronic and Computer Engineering Scholarships: The project offers international students the possibility to receive a scholarship and other benefits to graduate from the Politecnico di Torino attending a Bachelor of Science (BS) course in Electronic and Computer Engineering at the Vercelli campus.

Amount of the scholarship

The gross amount of the Vercelli Campus scholarship is 10.000 Euro per year (30.000 Euro for the complete period).

The exact net sum is dependent upon the individual tax conditions of each student, which can be verified only upon the arrival of the student.

The amount of the scholarship will not be increased in case the student will need more time to graduate than indicated.

The allocation of the scholarship is dependent upon the submission, within 10 days from the arrival in Italy of the student, of the original documentation, which must correspond with the documentation attached to the online form (see the “Selection outcomes” section below).

Payment of the scholarship occurs periodically. The first instalment is dependent upon the possession of the relevant documentation (residence permit, Italian fiscal code, and bank account in the name of the scholarship recipient), all obtainable upon arrival in Italy; for this reason, the first instalment is not paid at the moment of arrival at the Politecnico di Torino, but in the course of the following month.

Requirements to maintain the scholarship

• Given that it is not possible to combine the benefits received from more than one scholarship, students who are assigned another study grant while receiving the Vercelli Campus scholarship must promptly notify the Politecnico di Torino.
• Payment of the scholarship will be suspended if the academic performance of the recipient does not meet a satisfactory level.

Deadlines: February 10th and May 10th each year.

More questions should be emailed to: international.relations [at] polito.it

Several people wonder how they can deal with the problem of indigestion. If you are facing this health problem, drink water before or after a meal.

Chew ginger bites thoroughly and peppermint. Chewing ginger and peppermint in company of a cup of dry tea is good for the digestive system.

Relaxing reduces stress, add lemon juice, honey and ginger to lukewarm water and drink.

Eat small meals and slowly eat foods rich in magnesium (vegetables). Don’t lie down right after eating and avoid foods with high amount of acids.

Cut back on alcohol and smoking because they irritate stomach lining. Eat energy giving foods and food supplements.

The people who are fasting and sportsmen should eat foods that are rich in natural fibre and comprise other nutritional elements e.g.  calcium, potassium, oil, sulfur, iron, vitamins, iron, phosphorus, manganese and copper.
