Is it ok to drink overnight milo


I offered my friend a cup of iced milo that he bought from a fast food chain in the fridge overnight. Probably with all the health buzz around and the realization that hey, we are not that young anymore (Remember those days we can survive with instant noodles and potato chips), he expressed his reservations on drinking the overnight ice milo.

I checked online, there's not much information explaining whether it is ok to drink overnight milo. But hey, common sense tell you it should be fine drinking a mixture of water, sugar, and milo powder (probably some milk elements as well). To convince myself of my common sense, I drank 100ml worth of it.

Verdict of drinking overnight milo

Well, it definitely does not taste as good as it is freshly brewed. I could taste that some of the residues are no longer mixed in the water and lingered in my mouth, but overall, you can't go wrong with a sweet drink.
Also, I am fine, No stomach issues or detectable discomfort with my human senses.

(Do note that the milo was left in the fridge for one day. If it was left out in the open or under the sun, or for extended periods, probably not such a good idea to still drink it.)

Beginner Yoga and Meditation videos I use and some tips

Beginner yoga and meditation videos


There has been much talk on what benefits of yoga and meditation can bring to a person’s well-being.

One year ago, I embarked on a journey to test it out. Especially in a high-pace city I am living in, yoga and meditation has presented me with a different realm which helps to completely calm the mind. Experienced practitioners of yoga and meditation will be able to relate to what I mean.

How to start:
I have listed below some of the clearer videos I found online. They provide a step-to-step narration and are easy enough for beginners.

Meditation:

20 min meditation - can do it before bed or in the morning
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=HutgMrYMbfE
10 min before sleep - can do this at least before sleeping 

Yoga:

20 min yoga quite easy and revitalizing to do in the morning

Relaxing 6 min simple yoga for better sleep

Other tips:
  • Both meditation and yoga focuses on deep breathing techniques which i feel is the key of making you feel better. If you are lazy to move, do meditation. If you want abit of activity, do yoga.
  • You need not follow strictly the videos, once you learn the moves and meditation techniques, can do by yourself. I find the 20min meditation too draggy and has since meditate in a way that works for me.
  • Wake up early to do this! You'll find it quite refreshing
  • Discipline is important. Even if you are really tired, do a simple 5 min stretching yoga. Remember, if you know and do not do, it is as good as not doing – then there is no point knowing. This post is a call to action!
  • There are lots of free videos available online, these videos I shortlisted worked for me, but feel free to browse other videos and find something that work for you.

Hope this was useful for you
