Soya Proteini Nedir?

Soya fasülyesi kullanılarak elde edilen bir protein tozu çeşididir. Vegan insanlar düşünülerek üretilmiştir.  Hayvansal protein kaynaklarına kıyasla kolesterolü ve tansiyonu yükseltmez, aksine düşürmeye yardımcı olur. Bir çok insan "et olmadan kas mı gelişir" diye düşünse de vücut geliştirme tarihince vegan bir çok başarılı sporcu bulunmaktadır. Ayrıca bunun yanı sıra soya proteinin kas gelişimine faydaları yapılan araştırmalar ile de kanıtlanmıştır.

Tavsiye : Soya proteini whey protein ile birlikte kullanıldığında etkisi daha fazla olacaktır. Maliyeti düşürmek ve kas gelişimini desteklemek amacı ile whey protein tozu ve soya proteini ile shakenizi hazırlamak oldukça mantıklı bir seçenektir.

Kimler Tercih Ediyor? : Çoğunlukla vejeteryan vücut geliştirmeciler tarafından kullanılmaktadır. Ancak fiyatları diğer protein tozlarına oranla daha düşük olduğundan protein tozu kullanmak isteyen kişiler için de iyi bir alternatif.

Nasıl Kullanılmalı? : Kutu içerisinden çıkan ölçek yardımı ile günlük protein ihtiyacınızın eksik kalan miktarı kadarını suya katarak veya protein shake hazırlayarak tüketebilirsiniz.

Soya Proteini Fiyatları : 2000 gramlık kutusu yaklaşık 150 tl gibi bir fiyata sahip. Diğer protein tozlarından çok daha uygun. Ancak pek tercih edilmediğinden bulmak o kadar kolay değil.

Önemli Uyarı : Protein tozu satın alırken eğer niyetiniz soya proteini almak değil ise dikkatli olun. Ne istediğinizi bilin. Satıcı kişiye ona göre bilgi verin. Çoğu insan sırf fiyatı uygun diye soya proteinini yanlışlıkla almakta. Tercihiniz bu yönde ise saygı duyarım. Ancak yanlışlık, bilmeden soya proteini alıp 250 liralık protein tozunu 150 liraya aldım diye böbürlenmeyin.

MESSAGE FROM THE HIGH COMMISSIONER - UPDATE ON BREXIT PREPARATIONS

Message from the High Commissioner: Update on Brexit preparations

I thought it might be helpful to provide an update on recent developments linked to the UK’s future departure from the European Union, now that formal negotiations have now begun.

As I travel around the island meeting British residents here – most recently in Paralimni in May and in Pafos earlier this month – I know you have a range of concerns about what Brexit will mean for you. Until negotiations progress further, we are unlikely to have all the answers to those concerns but I hope it’s helpful for me to set out what we know so far; and for those unable to attend recent meetings to hear the kinds of concerns that were raised by others.

On 26 June, the Prime Minister announced in parliament details of the UK’s opening offer in the negotiations on the rights of EU citizens in the UK post-Brexit. This is an important development as the expectation is that whatever is finally agreed will also apply reciprocally to British nationals resident in other EU countries, such as Cyprus.

The core elements of the offer are as follows:

·     -    No EU citizen living in the UK before a ‘cut-off date’ (to be determined) will face the threat of being asked to leave after our exit;

·       -  There will be equal treatment between UK nationals and EU citizens entitled to reside in the UK;

·      -  EU citizens’ rights will be robustly and properly enforceable, but in UK law, not through the European Court of Justice (ECJ);

·     -    The offer has been made seeking reciprocity for UK nationals living in EU Member States. 

The UK hopes that by setting out its offer in this way, it is demonstrating its willingness to work positively and productively with its European partners.  Full details of the offer can be found here:

https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/safeguarding-the-position-of-eu-citizens-in-the-uk-and-uk-nationals-in-the-eu

As you will see, the UK offer includes many of the issues (healthcare, pensions, education and benefits) of concern to UK nationals in Cyprus, as well as Cypriots in the UK.

The next step will be for the UK and the EU27 to start formal negotiations on these opening positions on citizens’ rights, and the other priority issues for the negotiations agreed on 19 June, namely:  the budget and the border with Ireland.  Once we have made sufficient progress on those issues, the negotiations will turn to the UK’s future relationship with the EU.  The UK’s outline plan is to move to those “future” issues by October 2017.

During my recent meeting with British nationals living in the Pafos area, I stressed that, while any negotiations are difficult, we start at a point where there is quite a lot of common ground between the UK and EU27 in at least two of the three priorities for the negotiations. This is positive.

The Cypriot government have also been supportive to date, reflecting the excellent relations between our countries. I am reassured that Cyprus wants to make Brexit work, and the authorities are alive to the implications of it for British nationals here. The intention of both our countries is to keep the process of negotiation well intentioned, positive and productive.

I also noted at the meeting in Pafos that the exit process is likely to be complex, as apart from the main Brexit negotiations, there are at least 1000 other agreements covering trade, health, air service and taxation and other fields which will need to be negotiated with other countries.

As stated previously, a period of uncertainty is inevitable as we agree the changes from one state of affairs to another.  Until negotiations are concluded, it will not be possible to say with certainty what the impact of Brexit will be on British citizens living in Cyprus, or indeed Cypriots living in the UK. But until new arrangements are agreed, I expect there will be no changes to your current circumstances.

On issues of importance to you such as access to health care and pensions, I hope the position paper above will at least begin to show you the direction of travel of the negotiations.

The information below may also be useful to you, in light of the type of enquiries we are currently receiving:

1.    British nationals living in Cyprus as residents should apply for their MEU1 form (yellow slip), as proof of residency. Further information on how to do this can be found here: http://www.moi.gov.cy/moi/CRMD/crmd.nsf/All/69E690A161D174D6C2257D2C0045750B?OpenDocument

2.    If you have been living in Cyprus and have yet to register as resident you should visit you local Citizen Service Centre who will advise you on what you need to do.

3.    The Immigration Department has advised that British nationals who have been living in Cyprus since before its accession to the EU (2004) should arrange to have their Alien Registration Card (ARC) converted into an MEU1(yellow slip).  This may affect those, in particular state pensioners, who are renewing the medical cards. 

4.    Information about applying for Cypriot citizenship is available from the Ministry of Interior through the following link. If you have been on the island for 7 or more years you may be eligible to apply:

Et Proteini Nedir?

Et vücut geliştirmeciler için vazgeçilmez bir protein kaynağıdır. Lezzeti ve besin değerleri oldukça yüksektir. Kas gelişimine destek olur. Bu protein çeşidini direkt olarak et tüketerek veya et proteini içeren protein tozlarını tüketerek vücudunuza alabilirsiniz. Beef protein olarak da bilinen bu protein çeşidi diğerler protein tozu çeşitlerine oranla daha az popüler olmasına rağmen bir çok besin takviyesi satan firma tarafından satılmaktadır.

Et Protein Tozu Nasıl Üretilir? : Etin kaynatılır ve daha sonra içerisindeki protein ayrıştırılarak toz haline getirilir. Proteinin yanı sıra etin içerisinde kas gelişimine destek olan kreatin ve bcaa gibi besin öğeleri de et protein tozunun içerisinde mevcuttur.

Diğer Protein Tozlarından Farkı Ne? : Besin değerleri diğer protein tozlarından çok daha yüksektir. Özellikle kas gelişiminde önemli rol oynayan bcaa ve kreatin bakımından zengin olması et proteinini diğerler protein tozlarından ayıran en önemli özelliktir.

Neden Kullanmalıyız? : Vücudun kas gelişimi için et proteinine ihtiyacı vardır. Bunu direkt olarak et tüketerek ya da et proteini tozu ile karşılamanız gerekmektedir. Bu sayede antrenman sırasında oluşan kas tahribatlarını tamir ederek daha büyük ve daha güçlü kaslar inşa edebiliriz.

Et Protein Tozu Fiyatları : Artan dolar kuruna bağlı olarak fiyatları değişebilir. Güncel fiyatı 2000 gr protein tozu baz alınarak 250 tl dir.

Besin Takviyeleri kategorimizdeki diğer yazılara göz atmak için buraya tıklayabilirsiniz.

Not : Ülkemizde kırmızı et fiyatları da oldukça yüksektir. Et protein tozunun da ondan aşağı kalır bir yanı yok. Bu nedenle ihtiyacımız olan protein miktarını tavuk ve balık gibi ürünlerden karşılamak (hatta mümkünse arada balığa gitmek) en mantıklı seçenekler arasındadır.

Kavunun Faydaları

Sıcak yaz günlerinde bolca tükettiğimiz kavun, A ve C vitamini, folik asit, potasyum, bakır açısından oldukça zengin bir besin öğesidir. Kalorisinin büyük bir kısmı karbonhidrattan gelir ve lif oranı düşüktür. Vücut için oldukça faydalı bir meyvedir. Özellikle oruç tutacak kişiler gün boyu susuzlukları gidermek amacıyla sahurda kavun tüketmeliler.

Tansiyonu Dengeler : Potasyum ve C vitamini bakımından zengin olan kavun tansiyon riskini azaltmaktadır. Vücudunuza gün boyu yeterli potasyum alımı tansiyonun dengede kalması için önemlidir. Aynı zamanda potasyum kalp krizi riskini azaltır, böbrek taşı oluşumunu engeller ve kas kaybı yaşamanızın önüne geçer.

Astımı Önler : Kavun tüketen insanların nefes darlığı olarak da bilinen astım hastalığına yakalanma ihtimali daha düşüktür. İçerisinde "beta karoten" bulundurur.

Not : Kavun tek başına astım hastalığı için sizi bir sonuca götürmez. Sağlıklı beslenme ve yediğiniz besinlerin içeriğini bilmek sizi asıl sonuca götürerek hastalıklara karşı korunmanızda yardımcı olur.

Kanseri Önler: Toprakta yetişen meyve ve sebzelerden alınan "beta karoten" maddesi başta prostat kanseri olmak üzere bir çok kanserin oluşumunu önüne geçer.

Sindirim Sistemine Faydalı: Posalı ve sulu bir meyve olduğundan dolayı bağırsaklara iyi gelir ve kabızlık gibi problemlerin önüne geçer.

Kavun Hakkında Merak Ettikleriniz

Kavunun Cilde Faydaları : İçerisinde A ve C vitamini bulunduran kavun cilde oldukça faydalıdır. Bir çok cilt maskesi tarifinde ve cilt bakım kremlerinin içerisinde kavun bulunmaktadır.

Kavunun Zararları : Oldukça sağlıklı bir besin olan kavun dikkatli tüketilmediği taktirde zararlı olabilir. Çünkü kavunun kabuğunda bulunan bakteriler kesme işlemi sırasında kavunun içerisine temas ederek vücuda girer. Bu da sağlıksız bir tüketim yolu olur.

Kavunun Cinsel Faydaları : Güzel kokusu sebebi ile afrodizyak etkisi oluşturarak cinsel arzuyu artırdığı yönünde araştırmalar mevcuttur. Ancak sanılanın aksine etkisi o kadar kuvvetli değildir.

Not : Bu besin ile ilgili merak ettiğiniz başka bir soru var ise yazının altına yorum olarak bırakabilirsiniz.

ETERNAL VOYAGES - Paphos Harbour - 1 July

From Cyprus Mail - article by Maria Gregoriou 28 June 2017

According to the organisers of European Capital of Culture Pafos2017, the highlight of the summer events will peak on Saturday with an outdoor performance based on one of the prevailing themes of the cultural programme, world travellers.

The spectacular outdoor event, which will take place on and around Paphos castle and harbour, uses natural elements as its dramatic backdrop to tell the stories of three travellers descending on Paphos by land, sea and air.

The piece Eternal Voyages was created by UK outdoor arts company Walk the Plank, who also created the opening ceremony for the Pafos2017 events entitled A Work of Art in January, in partnership with artists from Paphos.

Eternal Voyages tells a dramatic narrative through projection, high quality digital animation and mapping accompanied by heightened dramatic moments of live performance including poetical text and song – both in English and Greek.

Celebrating the rich cultural heritage of Paphos, the show also includes dance, mass choreography, processional performance, acrobatics, a water spectacle, dynamic lighting and sound design accompanied by an original musical score and special effects including a pyrotechnic final. All this in just one show proves why it is rightly named the highlight of the summer events.

Eternal Voyages
Live performance including poetry, song and dance. July 1. Paphos Castle Square. 8.30pm. Free. Tel: 26-932017

Bathroom Trim

Well, here it is! Trim! I can't get over how much it has changed the presence of the window. And it is so pretty and white now! I know they say all white bathrooms are not in favor right now, but I love all the clean whiteness.

 I don't think I ever shared our latest window covering. I decided it was time to get something lighter then the picture frame we had propped in the window. After much thought and discussion, I finally decided a simple piece of fabric in the window was what we needed. After combing the fabric store for something to co-ordinate we finally settled on this black and white print (which is actually flannel, but who can tell?!). I ironed heavy weight interfacing (for extra stiffness and privacy) onto the back, hemmed up the edges and stuck Velcro in the corners to hold it in place. It has worked perfectly!

 Oh how I love the new window sill!! After looking at exposed framing for close to four years it is so nice to have clean painted wood.

I really was just hoping to get window sills here and in the kitchen this summer and possibly work on the rest of the trim this fall. But one thing led to another and before we knew it, it was an all out carpenter's shop for a week. Of course, replacing (and replicating) 1920's trim is not as simple as going to the home improvement store. We had to do it like it was originally done, custom made. Fortunately, my brother specializes in custom milled trim. He milled the baseboards out of 1 x 8 boards, the window sills were cut out of 5/4 x 4, the window trim was just standard 1 x 4 with a custom milled back bend (corner piece) out of 5/4 x 3. That is a lot of wood around the window!

It took Mandy and I a full Sunday plus mornings and evenings for three days to get is all installed. (Mitered corners are tricky!) It might not be the most professional job, but it is done! And we are rather proud we did it.

The baseboard doesn't have as much of an impact on the room as the window trim. Or maybe I should say the window trim out shines the baseboard? But it is lovely to have it finished off. Though I hadn't thought about the trim being 3/4" thick and sticking out more then we are use to around the tub (to the left in the above picture). I have already cracked my toes three times on it! This picture shows very well how snug everything fits in the bath. Cozy isn't it? 

Here is the before trim post, before the medicine cabinet, new tile floors, and mid construction.

Another picture showing just how cozy the bath is. The raw wood just behind the tub wall is the linen closet. I have thought long and hard over how to finish it off and finally come to the conclusion it is working just fine the way it is now and adding a curtain or door would just complicate things. And since you can't see the linen closet from the doorway, it doesn't glare out at us. I will just need to get a trim board and get it in and that should be done.

We also got the back bend on around the outside of the doorway and the baseboard on either side. I am so excited to have finally got this project done! There are a few more windows to restore and then, I think all the original projects will be done! Amazing!
