Morning sunlight may be secret of staying lean

New Delhi, April 04 (ANI): A new study has revealed that people who are exposed to earlier sunlight are leaner than other people. The study has found that that the timing, intensity and duration of light exposure affects one's weight, as people exposed to even moderately bright light in the morning have a significantly lower body mass index. The study states that light is the most potent agent to synchronize one's internal body clock that regulates circadian rhythms, which in turn also regulate energy balance and about 20 to 30 minutes of morning light is enough to affect BMI. If a person doesn't get sufficient light at the appropriate time of day, it could de-synchronize the internal body clock, which is known to alter metabolism and can lead to weight gain. The study is published in the journal PLOS ONE. Apr 5, 2014

His younger brother, Syed Yahya Bukhari, who is the president of the Jama Masjid United Forum was very critical of the meet and his brother’s move. He on Thursday said that Law Minister and senior Congress leader Kapil Sibal is an Israeli agent and his aim has always been to weaken the roots of Muslim community in India since ages. Apr 3, 2014
