Posted on by City Today News (City today.media)

Bangalore, 04 March 2019: After making Delhi, Pune and Bengaluru, drool over good food and groove to incredible performances, the first season of Zomaland comes to an end on a spectacular note. The carnival brought together top-rated eateries from across the country, a stellar line-up of music artists from around the world, India’s top comedians, stunning installations, fascinating photo booths, vibrant food parades, a giant Ferris wheel, and enthralling street performances, all under one roof.

Riding high on the mission of ‘better food for more people’, Zomaland offered a splendid mix of eateries curated into as many as seven food zones (Flavours of India, Oriental Trail, American Avenue, European Eateries, Mexican Mania, Healthy Hub and Dessert District) for everyone to enjoy their favourites, as well as try something new. The two live stages – Zomato Live Arena and Theatre Bizarre – were marked by the footprints of some of the top artists in the country, and the presence of thousands of people who gathered to enjoy their shows. The artists’ list included names like Lucky Ali, Divine, Jay Sean, Nucleya, Ritviz, When Chai Met Toast, Rohan Joshi and Varun Thakur.

As the last leg of the season, Zomaland debuted in Bengaluru, witnessing an incredible turnout of over 50,000 people. What stood out were the various cuisines and performances by artists like Divine, Jay Sean and Rohan Joshi who kept everyone hooked till the end.
Celebrating the success of the first season, Gaurav Gupta, Co-Founder and COO, Zomato, said, “Zomaland was a testimony to the power of simplicity and perseverance; we wanted to build a product that would speak for itself and be a credible source of consumer delight. The team spent over six months planning every element, including for all possible contingencies. Over one lakh foodies attended the event in the three cities, making it a huge success for its real heroes – users, restaurants, entertainers and the team who executed it. Zomaland helped us build a more tangible connection with our users and restaurant partners and gain access to more user-centric data, as we continue in our journey to improve accessibility, assortment and quality of food.”
Besides the obvious love for food and performances, Carnival City stood out as the most treasured zone. It witnessed the presence of visitors from every age group, equally enjoying the collection of carnival games; which has become a major addition to the carnival theme. What’s more, Zomaland offered a special zone for kids; designed for their comfort, and palates.
“Zomaland was the result of months of hard work, dedication, brainstorming and food-sampling to create a mixed itinerary of eateries, fun activities and performances, for everyone to enjoy. We wanted to bring to life the carnival everyone has grown up enjoying – mixing nostalgia with newness – to create a unique experience. As we conclude the first season, we are already looking forward to taking it to more cities. The first step is to collect feedback from everyone who visited Zomaland across the three cities, and then work on the components to bring forth an even better show next time,” added, Chaitanya Mathur, Global Head, Zomato Events.

In addition to the overwhelming response to the carnival, Zomaland also saw tremendous participation from the restaurant community. It served as a great platform for them to showcase their culinary prowess and reach a larger audience base.
“Zomaland helped us reach out to our core customers, serving as a great platform to interact with them and get first-hand feedback. We participated in the Bangalore edition but for the upcoming seasons, we have now decided to go wherever Zomaland goes. We are already part of Zomato through online ordering and restaurant listings but Zomaland is one step ahead of everything it has to offer,” said Hamilton, Promoter, BBQ@52.
“Zomaland, New Delhi, as a fest was very successful in attracting wide audiences especially families, who had a great time. We have some of the best food in the world in India, and carnivals such as this one will go a long way in supporting the culinary atmosphere in our country,” said Rakshay Dhariwal, Managing Director, Pass Code Hospitality.

“We were extremely delighted to be part of the Pune edition of Zomaland. The carnival had a great vibe, it was systematic and had something for everyone. We were delighted by how even the smallest details were taken care of, and will definitely be a part of more events by Zomato,” added Priya Kriplani Mehtani and Dheeraj Mehtani, Owner, Asian Box.

‘Blenders Pride Magical Nights arrives in Bengaluru’ ‘Yami Gautam enthralls the city with her charisma’

Posted on by City Today News (City today.media)

The evening was a celebration of the authenticity and uniqueness of style delving into the idea of ‘Pride’ through one’s choices, style and legacy. It was all about rejoicing in individuals who have created their own distinct tales of style, and are instilled with a strong sense of positive pride, for their self-earned achievements.

Blenders Pride Magical Nights believes in celebrating ‘Pride’ which is a hallmark of today’s generation, as a meaningful expression of their accomplishments.

During exams, students can be constipated, due to change in life like sleeping patterns, eating patterns and stress.

Posted on by City Today News (City today.media)

Stress is a very common cause of constipation. Stress affects the body in many different ways, including activating the sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight response). Certain body types will react to stress by decreasing the movement of the bowels (peristalsis). In stressful situations, people sometimes will eat unhealthy diets, decrease the amount of exercise they perform, and drink less water, which often lead to constipation. Aside from taking laxatives when stressed, people should consider taking long walks, and doing deep breathing, meditation, taking a break, exercising and massage therapy These are safe and healthy forms of stress management, and wil likely improve the symptoms of constipation. Other causes behind constipation are a regime of certain medications, dehydration, anda poor diet. To prevent constipation, evaluate your diet and if necessary, consider increasing the amount of fibre in the diet by eating more leafy greens, fruits and vegetables high in fibre, and decrease your intake of cheeses, high fat foods, and simple sugars. If these measures do not improve constipation, and your symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable that you visit a primary care physician because there may be other underlying causes for constipation that can only be evaluated by a professional. A thorough evaluation of a patient’s history and a medical examination are essential to make a diagnosis.

The patient may complain of hard, painful stools when the stool consistency has changed (e.g., caused by poor diet or lack of hydration) or difficult, strained passage of soft stool when suffering from altered defecatory behaviour (e.g., anatomical obstruction, motility disorder). In the absence of organic disease, constipation may resolve itself with regular exercise, better hydration, and fiber supplementation. Osmotic or secretary laxatives may be considered in patients with unrelenting constipation. Long-term use of laxatives may result in dependency and paradoxical constipation, which can only be relieved with adequate lifestyle changes. In addition to a general physical exam and a digital rectal exam, doctors use the following tests and procedures to diagnose chronic constipation and try to find the cause:

Blood tests: Your doctor will look for a systemic condition such as low thyroid (hypothyroidism).

Examination of the rectum and lower, or sigmoid, colon (sigmoidoscopy): In this procedure, your doctor inserts a lighted, flexible tube into your anus to examine your rectum and the lower portion af your colon.

Examination of the rectum and entire colon (colonoscopy): This diagnostic procedure allows your doctor to examine the entire colon with a flexible, camera-equipped tube.

Evaluation of anal sphincter muscle function (anorectal manometry): In this procedure, your doctor inserts a narrow, flexible tube into your anus and rectum and then inflates a small balloon at the tip of the tube. The device is then pulled back through the sphincter muscle. This procedure allows your doctor to measure the coordination of the muscles you use to move your bowels

Evaluation of anal sphincter muscle speed (balloon expulsion test): Often used along with anorectal manometry, this test measures the amount of time it takes for you to push out a balloon that has been filled with water and placed in your rectum.

Evaluation of how well food moves through the colon (colonic transit study): In this procedure, you may swallow a capsule that contains either a radiopaque marker or a wireless recording device. The progress of the capsule through your colon will be recorded over several days and be visible on X-rays.

In some cases, you may eat radiocarbon-activated food and a special camera will record its progress (scintigraphy): Your doctor will look for signs of intestinal muscle dysfunction and how well food moves through your colon.

An X-ray of the rectum during defecation (defecography): During this procedure, your doctor inserts a soft paste made of barium into your rectum. You then pass the barium paste as you would stool. The barium shows up on X-rays and may reveal a prolapse or problems with muscle function and muscle coordination.

MRI defecography: During this procedure, as in barium defecography, a doctor will insert contrast gel into your rectum. You then pass the gel. The MRI scanner can visualize and assess the function of the defecation muscles. This test also can diagnose problems that can cause constipation, such as rectocele or rectal prolapse.

LIFESTYLE AND HOME REMEDIES

Increase your fiber intake: Adding fiber to your diet increases the weight of your stool and speeds its passage through your intestines. Slowly begin to eat more fresh fruits and vegetables each day. Choose whole-grain breads and cereals. Your doctor may recommend a specific number of grams of fiber to consume each day. In general, aim for 14 grams of fiber for every 1,000 calories in your daily diet. A sudden increase in the amount of fiber you eat can cause bloating and gas, so start slowly and work your way up to your goal over a few weeks.

Exercise most days of the week: Physical activity increases muscle activity in your intestines. Try to fit in exercise most days of the week. If you do not already exercise, talk to your doctor about whether you are healthy enough to start an exercise program.

Don’t ignore the urge to have a bowel movement: Take your time in the bathroom, allowing yourself enough time to have a bowel movement without distractions and without feeling rushed
