It's National Donut Day!!

Every year on the first Friday of June, Canadians honour the doughnut and the Salvation Army Lassies by celebrating National Doughnut or Donut Day. During WWI, the ladies who served doughnuts to troops were known as Salvation Army Lassies.

The first "Salvation Army Doughnut" was served by Salvation Army ladies in 1917. During WWI, the Salvation Army Lassies fought on the front lines of Europe. The home-cooked meals provided by these brave volunteers bolstered the troops' morale.

Doughnuts were frequently baked in oil inside the metal helmets of American soldiers. At the time, American infantrymen were referred to as "doughboys." The phrase is usually spelt "donut."On this day, several bakeries and coffee shops in the United States give doughnuts to their customers.




HISTORY OF NATIONAL DOUGHNUT DAY

To remember the ladies who fed doughnuts to soldiers during World War I, the Salvation Army founded National Doughnut Day in 1938. This day began as a fundraiser for the Salvation Army in Chicago. During the Great Depression, their 1938 fundraiser attempted to help the impoverished.

Water is not the best hydrating beverage. Do you know why?

Water isn't the best hydration drink, according to the conclusions of a 2016 study published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, at least in terms of long-term physiological fluid balance. The solution, which may surprise you, is milk. Even when the intrinsic water content of the drink is taken into account, both skim and whole milk can be more hydrating than still water. Hydration is distinguished not only by fluid balance, but also by retention, which indicates that the advantages of the beverage are not lost quickly due to pee. Milk contains nutrients like fat, lactose (or milk sugar), and sodium (or salt) that help it stay in the body longer and provide more hydration. Sodium is the most common electrolyte in the body, according to the Cleveland Clinic. Electrolytes are extremely important in maintaining body fluid balance. The St. Andrews University School of Medicine in Scotland researchers conducted studies to develop a beverage hydration index. The study comprise...
