Be informed! What makes you more attractive to mosquitoes isn't how good you taste

For some, mosquito bites are an annoyance on our arms and legs and all parts of the body. While some people are plagued by mosquitoes, others seem immune to it.

As it turns out, how attractive you are to a mosquito might have less to do with how your blood tastes and more to do with how you smell.

There are a trillion or so microbes that live on our skin that play a huge role in body odor. Without those bacteria, human sweat wouldn't smell at all. However,for everyone, the bacteria vary widely. While we share 99.9% of DNA with other humans, our microbes are much more diverse, in part because they're influenced by our lifestyle. A small 2011 study found that those microbes produce different chemicals. And some of those smell more attractive to the insects.

To demonstrate this, researchers asked 48 adult male volunteers to refrain from alcohol, garlic, spicy food, and showers for two days, as these factors could interfere with the kinds of microbes that thrive on the men's skin.

The men wore nylon socks for 24 hours to build up their collection of unique skin microbes, which the researchers then used to collect their scent as bait for some malaria-carrying Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes.

Out of the 48 men, nine proved to be especially attractive to mosquitoes. Another seven men were largely ignored by the insects.

So the researchers looked at the microbe profiles for each of the men. Not surprisingly, the "highly attractive" group had more than twice as high a concentration of one common skin microbe, and more than three times higher concentration of another common microbe compared to the "poorly attractive group."

Overall, that poorly attractive group had a more diverse bacterial colony on their skin, findings that suggest some people's smell may act as a natural deterrent for mosquitoes.

Scientists have also looked into how smells influence the behavior of the mosquito species that's responsible for transmitting Zika and dengue — the Aedes aegypti.

For one of these studies, researchers analyzed the chemicals produced by skin microbes and found that some of them appear to attract particular mosquitoes. One they found is lactic acid. (In addition to being produced naturally by our bodies, it's also found in milk and cheese.

When mixed with the carbon dioxide we breathe out, lactic acid makes for a potent combination that attracts female A. aegypti mosquitoes. In particular, Limburger cheese, which tends to smell like body odor, was a definite mosquito attractant.

So in conclusion, being attractive to mosquitoes is all about smells, and the kinds of microbes that produce them. Source: Business Insider

Here are The Most Overlooked Cause Of Belly Fat

This is a sponsored post. Read below... If you’ve been working out regularly and watching what you eat, but you still can’t seem to get rid of that stubborn belly fat, there may be a “hidden” cause - and it has nothing to do with diet or exercise. So, today I want to talk about why it’s so hard for you to get rid of belly fat, explain what could be the hidden cause (most people never consider this), and give you simple and effective ways you combat your stubborn “ab flab” Alright, let’s dive right in… www.healthandwellnessplan.org The reason stomach fat is so difficult to get rid of is because it’s heavily influenced by your hormones. Don’t get me wrong…your stomach fat isn’t the only area that’s controlled by your hormones, but it happens to be the most sensitive. > >So what does this mean? >It means that exercising and eating right may not be enough to get rid of your stubborn belly fat. > >And here’s one hormone in particular, that most people don’t even consider…which could be causing you to retain belly fat. Your cortisol hormone. >Cortisol is your stress hormone. It’s an important hormone that’s essential for human survival. > >Whenever your body experiences any type of stress (whether it be mental or physical) your body secretes cortisol, which then initiates a cascade of other physiological responses necessary for your body to keep functioning. > >You can look at it like an emergency generator. If the main source of electricity goes out in your area from some unforeseen incident, the emergency generator kicks in to give you power until the main source is fixed. But the emergency generator isn’t meant to provide power for the long term. And that’s a lot like your cortisol. Cortisol turns “off” many of the normal physiological mechanisms and turns “on” many temporary physiological mechanisms (the operative word being “temporary”). > >In a normal situation, cortisol production only lasts for a short period of time and afterwards, all metabolic functions go back to normal. But this is where things can go wrong, because in many cases these stresses that cause your body to secrete cortisol occur way too often and stay “on” for way too long. > >When you’re body experiences constant stress, it continuously secretes cortisol and that’s when cortisol becomes counterproductive to your body. > >And depending on how long and how much cortisol you have circulating in your body, it can seriously compromise your health and alter your metabolic process causing you to gain stubborn unrelenting belly fat! Researchers at Yale University found slender women who had high cortisol also had more abdominal fat. > >So, if you tend to gain belly fat easily and have a difficult time getting rid of it, there’s a strong likelihood that you’re producing too much cortisol. > >Here are 2 questions I want you to ask yourself to see if there’s something other than diet and exercise that may be hindering your progress: > >Are you sleeping enough? Getting enough quality sleep is the most important thing you can do to minimize stress, optimize your health and help your body to burn more fat! During your sleep, your body utilizes fat as it’s primary source of fuel. So getting enough sleep is key to making sure that your body burns off more fat! If you have a hard time sleeping, try reading a book (non-fiction or self improvement type of books tend to work best). Sleeping in complete darkness also helps you sleep more soundly. Get rid of electrical equipment like phones, computers, TV’s, and radios in your bedroom (or at least switch them off when you go to sleep). Studies have found that the less electrical magnetic field you’re exposed to, the better your mind and body rests. > >Do you feel tired all of the time? If you’re constantly feeling tired, it means you’re not recovering enough. Inadequate recovery means that your body still has cortisol coursing through your body. In situations like this, it’s best to give yourself a break and and let your body rest. Your only going to do your body more disservice by pushing through the fatigue. In fact, you’ll only be increasing your cortisol production and making your belly fat even more difficult to burn off. > >If you answered yes to any of these questions, cortisol may be to blame. And if so, the solution is pretty easy…sleep, rest and recover! Improving these three seemingly unrelated (but very important!) factors can help reduce your cortisol, so you can finally start burning fat off your stomach. > >And if you feel like you’re already getting enough sleep & rest, then let me reveal to you A Natural Method To Get A Flatter Belly, Lose Weight, Overcome Food Cravings, Enjoy Nutritious Nigerian Diet, Achieve A Dream BodyIn 4 WeeksWithout Ever Starving Yourself. >Quickly visit: => www.healthandwellnessplan.orgon that page, you will Discover… How you can get a Flatter Bellywithin 4 weekseven if everything else that you have tried didn't work for you. > www.healthandwellnessplan.org How to lose weight Naturallywithin 4 weeksusing some Natural plants. > www.healthandwellnessplan.org How to get rid of unwanted Fat And its Toxin from your body by detoxifying with a special natural plant extract.
