HI
Here is the recipe

Oats - 1 cup (U can use as it is, but better if u make it to powder)
Rice flour - 2 tbsp
Rava/Sooji - 2 tbsp
Buttermilk - 1/4 cup (U can use water also to make it to batter, the butter milk gives a different sort of flavour. I mostly use water only)
Green Chilli - 1 finely chopped
Coriander leaves - 1 tbsp finely chopped
Cumin/jeera seeds - 1 tsp (optional)
Pepper powder - 1/4 tsp(optional
Salt as required.

Mix everything and make dosa. It will be very soft, so while flipping should be a bit careful. It would be better to make small dosas

Thank you Srilatha

Walking for that long with your normal footwear???????:rant
Puleeeeeeze,.... don't hurt yourself.console1

Keep your legs immersed in salt+lukewarm water for 10 minutes.Wipe out.Give a gentle massage with moisture cream/lotion.

Don't let yourself into walk for next 2-3 days till you completely relieved from pain.

If you are keen in,carry walking shoes to office and it won't hurt you that much.

Thanks.

The Effects of Drinking Hot Water

For those who like to drink cold water, this post is applicable to you. It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion. Once this "sludge" reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine . Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer . It is best to drink hot soup or hot water/tea after a meal.

Most people do not consider drinking hot water refreshing or to have any health benefits in addition to those gained by drinking cold water. Although drinking cold water on a regular basis is good for your health, some experts believe that drinking hot water can be equally beneficial, but in slightly different ways. Both hot and cold water hydrates you, which is the main benefit of drinking water. Cold water sounds more appealing to most people, and does help burn a few extra calories after a work out than lukewarm water. It is also absorbed into the bloodstream easier, which helps hydrate your body, especially if you have been sweating, which dehydrates your body. However, some people are drinking hot water as a way of purifying their bodies, very much like going to a sauna.

If you drink a glass or two of hot water, you increase your body temperature slightly. Your body, in order to maintain your temperature around 98.6 degrees, will begin to sweat to cool itself down. The sweating induced by drinking hot water helps purify your bloodstream by flushing toxins out of your body. It is reported that drinking hot water also helps remove deposits in the nervous system that have a negative effect on your thoughts and emotional responses. By drinking hot water, you are able to purify your body and mind, creating a balance that will make you feel healthier and think more clearly.

You can use hot water to purify yourself simply by drinking a glass of hot water once or twice a week. The water should be quite warm so that it causes you to sweat, but does not burn your mouth when you drink it. You should begin to sweat quite a bit as your body tries to lower its temperature. After you stop sweating, wipe away the perspiration and begin drinking another glass of hot water to balance your temperature.

Drinking hot water is also extremely useful in clearing your nasal cavities, especially if you are sick. The water vapor causes the buildup to loosen and make you feel less congested. Using hot water is preferable to tea or coffee, since their caffeine will dehydrate you, and that is the last thing you need when you are sick. In addition, sweating some can help you to remove some toxins from your body and hopefully get better sooner, and improve your overall health.
