Culture of India

Culture may be defined as the forces whether they are social or political which influence the growth of us. To be brief it is known as the state of manners. In this regard Indian culture is rich in its own way.

From the medieval periods there are diverse cultural diversities in the form of languages, religions, festivals and many more. Every state of India has its own language and own distinct culture. In spite of too many differences in their languages and cultural diversities, Indians are closely attached to each other. Traditional Indian culture is very strict. The Indian caste system properly describes the social stratification and social restrictions in Indian culture. Even we have entered into a modern world, move side by side with western countries but our culture has not lost its uniqueness. This uniqueness directly signifies to the manners or our culture which is given by our ancestors to us.

Elders and the respect for elders is the best feature of Indian culture. The respect for elders is not driven from anybody but it come from within itself. Elders pass on this culture to next generation as we enter into it. India has also the birth place of many religions such as Hinduism, Sikhism, Jainism, Budhism and many more are there. The various traditions which are formed by these amalgamations have influenced the other parts of the world too.

When there is turn to be a hosting an event or some guest is there Indian culture is at its peak. Indian culture treats their guests as God and takes care of them as they are part of their own family itself. Another thing that is beautifully learned from Indian Culture is respect each other. Right from our early days we are taught to help another in need or distress.

There is too much diversity in India's geography, culture, and food. Indian cuisine varies from one state to another reflecting the varied demographics of the ethnically diverse place. Cuisine across India has also been influenced by various cultural groups that entered India throughout history, such as the Persians, Mughals and European powers.

Goat's milk:A blessing for ageing people

If you have crossed your golden jubilee anniversary or touching it then you have probably noticed some disturbing changes in your daily routine, the way your body reacts to foods.

In today's world doctors agree that getting minerals from foods in this age is a better choice than getting them from manufactured and inorganic products.

Goat milk also contains less lactose than cow milk which is helpful in preventing the development of allergies. Because goat milk is easier to digest, we can tolerate it better and experience less frequency of smelly, uncomfortable and embarrassing gas. Goat milk is an alkaline food so it doesn't produce unnecessary and potentially dangerous acids in your blood or intestines. Goat milk contain vitamins, especially riboflavin, to help heal your skin, minerals to help you maintain healthy blood pressure, bioorganic sodium to help settle upset stomachs and other serious digestive disorders like chronic indigestion, intestinal irritation, constipation, diarrhoea or even ulcers and bloating.

Goat milk not only contains less fat than cow milk but it also has less of the enzyme called xanthine oxidase which generates the superoxide free radical molecule, which creates scar tissue on the heart if it enters the bloodstream. It's also been proven to cause your body to produce excess cholesterol, which can lead to arteriosclerosis.

With goat milk you can help to soothe your digestive system and intestinal tract, strengthen your immune system and help fight off nasty bugs, ease painful joints, encourage healthy bone growth and even avoid further bone loss and above all balance and regulate blood sugar levels.
