Vabzdžiai ir jų keliami pavojai Kraujasiurbiai vabzdžiai paplitę visame pasaulyje. Žmogus jų ne tik nemėgsta – o kam gi bus malonus zyziantis, kartais nemaloniai ir skaudžiai geliantis bei sukeliantis nemalonių pojūčių, erzinantis padaras? Jie ir pavojingi. Kai kurie vabzdžiai perneša įvairių ligų sukėlėjus, tokiu būdu platindami užkrečiamąsias ligas. Su didžiausia tikimybe susirgti susiduriame šiltuosiuose, o ypač tropikų kraštuose, kur pastaruoju metu vis dažniau keliauja atostogauti ir Lietuvos gyventojai. Vis tik, tiek Lietuvoje, tiek kaimyninėse šalyse kai kurių rūšių vabzdžių įgėlimai taip pat gali sukelti sveikatos sutrikimus. Siurbiamas kraujas – giminei pratęsti Kraujasiurbių vabzdžių patinėliai nesiurbia kraujo ir juo nesimaitina. Gal ir juokingai nuskambės, …read full article

  PLANT WATERS, also known as hydrosols, have not in vain been called homeopathy of aromatherapy: this miraculous liquid has a particularly small amount of essential oil dissolved in it. The hydrosols are substances of a special composition, with a very long history which started even prior to that of the very essential oils and possessing extraordinary advantages in comparison to those of essential oils, undeservingly ignored and looked down upon by certain business spheres and suggesting unlimited ways of use. The terms “flower water” and “floral water” are quite descriptive, but now seriously outdated and misleading. They are used to describe the condensate water that remains after the …read full article

Evolution of Senses The ability to smell is one of the first senses human beings develop. All components required for a functioning of the sense of smell are operational as early as 26 weeks after fertilisation. Studies of premature babies reveal the ability to detect odours to babies of this age. A newborn’s eyesight is quite vague, so they lead their way to their mother’s breast by their ability of smell. Because the brain links smell with memory, babies remember the journey and repeat it whenever they want food and comfort. And as they grow into adults, their sense of smell has …read full article

  Let us talk about cosmetics for kids. Not only about body care, but also about make-up. Nowadays the latter one is becoming increasingly popular among kids of almost all ages. It concerns not only costume make-up sets, or teen girls who tentatively begin wearing make-up by brightening their eyes and lips, it also involves little girls who use special make-up sets for their games – indeed, the supply in the market is so wide it is difficult to refrain for both kids and adults who purchase those gifts for the children. Unfortunately, the quality is frequently questionable. For many years, various studies and laboratory tests have revealed that adolescent …read full article

Having congratulated our country in the events of February 16th, we would like to share our joy with you! After carrying out some experiments, we organised and conducted several educational events for children together with Gamtos Laboratorija: we made natural handcraft things that connect the hearts of kids residing in the city with natural, green and live stuff.

They give so much joy, enchanting light, tranquility, relaxation, spiritual and physical strength as well as the sense of harmony that …read full article

So how do we soothe ourselves? How do we cope with stressful situations? Aromatherapy is one of the ways to soothe yourself as well as to intensify other relaxation techniques used, such as meditation, yoga, …read full article

      Winter, February in particular, happens to be an especially favourable period for an outbreak of influenza. People usually choose different remedies to handle flu: vaccines, paracetamol, ibuprofen seeking to reduce fever or pain, ascorbic acid, tamiflu etc. Among other means  Į pagalbą pasitelkiami ir tokie patarimai kaip skysčiai, patalpų drėkinimas, racionali dieta bei vitaminai. Deja, turint tokį varganą arsenalą, net ir sulaukus ,,dėl visa ko’’ antibiotikų kurso, neretas pasijaučia atsidūręs aklavietėje – vien dėl to, kad sintetinė chemija paskelbtos ligos atveju yra mažai naudinga.
