The YouTube channels that gained the most subscribers in 2019 show the platform's current trends and the areas that are growing rapidly.

YouTube's top stars, like PewDiePie and MrBeast, continued to dominate, obtaining tens of millions of new subscribers in a single year.

But PewDiePie was dethroned this year in total subscriber count by Indian record label T-Series, which also topped the list of fastest-growing channels, gaining a massive 42 million new subscribers in 2019. The success of T-Series — and the six other Indian channels that cracked this list of 21 channels with the most subscriber growth — shows the rising importance of India for YouTube.

Multiple Russian-speaking kid YouTube stars also made this year's list, including Anastasia Radzinskaya, the face of "Like Nastya Vlog." The 5-year-old star, who was born in Russia and lives in Florida, earns an estimated $18 million yearly from her online success, according to Forbes. With the booming success of her YouTube channels, Radzinskaya's family plans to extend her YouTube empire by launching toys, mobile games, and even publish a book, Forbes reported.

Two of her Radzinskaya's channels made the list: "Like Nastya Vlog" (which gained 27 million) and "Stacy Toys" (which gained 13 million).

TURMERIC TEA RECIPE FOR A HEALTHY THYROID [INFOGRAPHIC]

Turmeric has been historically known for its many health benefits, and this simple turmeric tea recipe may help you optimize your thyroid treatment plan. Turmeric health benefits include improved oxygen intake and low cholesterol levels which makes this recipe extremely good for your thyroid. Find out how to make the most out of turmeric in this tea recipe!

Ingredients
Turmeric powder (1-2 tbsp)
Black pepper powder (1 tsp)
Boiling water (1 cup)
Virgin coconut oil (1 tsp)
Sliced ginger
Cinnamon

Step 1: Prepare Turmeric Powder

Prepare your turmeric powder, about half a teaspoon. Put this in a small cup.

Step 2: Add Black Pepper Powder

This additional ingredient may help enhance the benefits of the turmeric. Black pepper has been known to increase the bioavailability of the turmeric powder by allowing your body to make the most of the turmeric’s curcumin content.

Step 3: Fill the Cup with Boiling Water

Once the turmeric and black pepper are in a small cup, fill the cup with boiling water. The boiling water will dissolve the pepper and turmeric. Make sure to stir the tea to let the ingredients mix together in the cup.

Step 4: Add in Virgin Coconut Oil

Add a teaspoon of virgin coconut oil. This oil may also help your body absorb the curcumin with ease because turmeric has been known to be better absorbed when taken with fat soluble. Virgin coconut oil may also help you maintain a healthy thyroid gland because of its fatty acids.

Step 5: Mix in Ginger

To add some extra taste and thyroid health benefits to this turmeric tea recipe, put in a few slices of ginger. Ginger is especially great for inflammation and improving thyroid function. It may also help your thyroid regulate your metabolism.

Step 6: Add Cinnamon for Taste

Sprinkle some cinnamon powder on top of your turmeric tea. The cinnamon will add some taste to the tea and help with your hypothyroidism. Just like the ginger, it also has anti-inflammatory properties. It may also help regulate your body’s sugar levels to prevent diabetes.

Step 7: Drink this Tea Regularly

You may try this turmeric tea recipe twice a day, once in the morning and before you go to sleep. Try it for two weeks then take a two-day break before continuing this routine.

Tip: The best pair to any thyroid treatment plan is consistency and patience. It’s better to take this drink 30-40 minutes after your thyroid medication.

This turmeric tea recipe may help with weight loss as a counter to thyroid symptoms of weight gain. It may also boost your body’s immune system while it accelerates your metabolism. Turmeric is filled with health benefits for your thyroid, and these added ingredients may help enhance the turmeric powder’s effectiveness.

Now that you’ve got your tea ready you can sip on it while skimming these turmeric health benefits!

9 Ways Turmeric May Benefit Your Thyroid Function

Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) Definition: It stimulates the thyroid gland to reduce hormones.

Curcumin Definition: An active compound in turmeric. It has potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

Serotonin Definition: A neurotransmitter in your blood platelets. It transmits feelings referring to mood, libido, and even sleep.

Cortisol Definition: A hormone the body produces when it’s under stress. When produced in rare occasions, it can help the body decide between fight and flight. But when the body constantly produces large amounts of cortisol, it may have negative physiological and psychological implications.

1. Has Powerful Anti-Inflammatory Properties

Inflammation is a major cause of many thyroid complications such as Grave’s disease and Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis.

In most cases, inflammation itself is not the root cause of the problem. Rather, it aggravates and worsens the thyroid diseases over time.

While the objective in treatment is to determine and resolve the cause of the problem, using anti-inflammatory compounds can help suppress the pain and speed up the healing process.

One of the most common turmeric health benefits includes suppressing inflammation in the body.

Ask your doctor about using turmeric supplement for curcumin’s anti-inflammatory properties. It’s a holistic natural alternative to many chemical-infused drugs thyroiditis patients use.

2. Boosts the Immune System

One of the main reasons the turmeric root and plant helps with many thyroid problems is because it’s a powerful antioxidant.

With autoimmune diseases, the patient’s body attacks its own organs and glands, including the thyroid. When this happens, the body stops functioning normally, and this affects the patient’s day-to-day life.

Luckily, you may avoid autoimmune diseases by strengthening your immune system with turmeric. Taking turmeric regularly allows curcumin to regulate the activity of immune cells and cytokines.

Along with a healthy lifestyle, learning how to use turmeric properly may boost your immune system.

If you have a healthy immune system, the chances of you developing thyroid diseases drop significantly. Keep in mind that other factors such as your genetics and environment heavily affect the development of thyroid complications.

3. Protects and Heals the Intestinal Barrier




The intestines serve as barriers protecting the bloodstream from harmful bacteria and toxins. Your body functions properly because your guts keep these disease-causing compounds at bay.

But when your intestines malfunction, these toxins and bacteria may permeate the wall and enter the bloodstream. In layman’s terms, we call this the leaky gut.

A healthy diet and regular exercise can help maintain proper intestine function. But if you really want to help your gut, you might want to consider supplementing with turmeric.

Some of the health benefits of turmeric include protecting and healing the intestinal barrier.

Products such as turmeric tea, turmeric powder, and turmeric capsules, among others, can prevent and potentially cure the leaky gut.

4. Turmeric Curcumin Has Tumor-Inhibiting Properties

Curcumin is a natural polyphenolic compound in the turmeric plant. It’s a powerful antioxidant widely used in herbal medicine.

Recent studies show that the curcumin in turmeric supplements may prevent the worsening of thyroid cancer. Researchers found that curcumin suppresses the growth and spreading of tumor in thyroid patients.

Keep in mind that the curcumin in the common turmeric dosage is relatively low. You should not use it as a substitute for proper treatment.

What you can do is experiment with turmeric recipes as a precautionary measure to prevent thyroid cancer. Remember: prevention is always better than cure.

5. Reduces Goitrogenesis or Goiter

Goitrogenesis refers to the inflammation of the thyroid gland. This occurs when the patient’s immune system attacks the host’s own thyroid.

As a result, the thyroid cannot produce enough thyroid hormones and starts secreting thyroid-stimulating hormones instead (TSH). With an imbalance of TSH and thyroid hormones, the thyroid gland starts to inflame causing goiter.

By using turmeric, patients can maximize both its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

Its antioxidant properties can help fight damage-causing free radicals which harm the immune system. This prevents goiter from happening in the first place.

At the same time, its anti-inflammatory effects can help reduce thyroid inflammation in the case of a damaged immune system.

6. Improves Cognitive Function



When suffering from hypothyroidism, you may experience some difficulty with your memory and cognitive skills. This is especially true for older patients with thyroid complications.

Luckily, apart from maintaining good thyroid health, patients can also use turmeric to ease the damage these diseases do to their cognitive skills.

Turmeric’s active ingredient curcumin increases the levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). It’s a protein that plays an important role in stimulating the production of new brain cells.

This benefit of turmeric is useful for elderly patients who can no longer produce a sufficient number of brain cells regularly.

Plus, it doesn’t take much to maximize this benefit. In fact, you can already increase your cognitive skills just by sprinkling a few pinches of turmeric powder in your morning toast.

7. Removes Heavy Metal Toxins

We expose our body to different types of heavy metal toxins on a daily basis. If you take in too much, it can spell disaster for the different organs and glands that maintain your bodily functions.

Plus, it can disrupt your hormones and increase inflammation in your thyroid.

A solid way to fight this is to supplement with turmeric and curcumin.

Apart from balancing your hormones and reducing inflammation, it can rid your body of these toxins fast. That way, these heavy metal toxins won’t even get the chance to damage your body.

Tip: Apart from supplementing with turmeric, reduce the pollution in the air you breathe and water you drink. People consume a lot of heavy metal toxins through these.

8. Alleviates Depression

Despite being two different complications, hypothyroidism may lead to depression. The imbalance in your hormones affects your overall mental health as well.

Most patients who suffer from these symptoms take medication to ease the pain. But, a lot of these chemical-infused drugs have harmful side effects.

That’s why some patients opt for turmeric instead. Turmeric helps decrease brain fog and confusion by improving the oxygen flow into your brain.


Studies also show that curcumin eases the symptoms of depression by increasing serotonin levels while simultaneously reducing the amount of cortisol in the body.

9. Detoxifies the Body

Turmeric is a powerful compound that helps the liver flush out toxins in the body. You may not know it, but you take in a lot of toxins from the food you eat.

Unhealthy food choices can really build up the toxin and cholesterol level in your body. If this continues, your liver will not be able to flush out all the impurities and may eventually lead to gut and thyroid complications.

Try to include turmeric into your daily diet to reduce the number of toxins in your body. Make sure to follow a healthy thyroid-friendly diet to maximize its benefits.

Tip: Are you suffering from gastrointestinal diseases? Then try supplementing with turmeric. This helps remove gas and reduce inflammation in the digestive tract.

How to Take Turmeric



You can take turmeric by mixing the spices in your meals or grinding it into tea, then follow the recipe above! But if you really want to improve thyroid health through turmeric, then you need to use an effective supplement.

The best turmeric supplement to use would be one that pairs it with other ingredients that prevent thyroid complications.

For example, Thyroid Support System by Dr. Seeds is a powerful supplement that maximizes the benefits of turmeric, vitamin K2, and iodine, among others. Order a bottle today to see if it will help you with your thyroid health.

Note: Before undergoing any medication or supplementation, make sure to seek the advice of a medical professional.

A Staggering Article About How Blind We Can Be to Other’s Feelings

Sometimes, we say words to other people that don’t mean much to us, just to avoid an awkward silence. Just to say something. And we have no idea how people will react to these words. Writer Nadirah Angail published a moving entry in her blog about how easy it is to hurt other people and not even notice it. She wants to make us more attentive and sensitive.

Somewhere there is a woman: 30, no children. People ask her, “Still no kids?” Her response varies from day to day, but it usually includes forced smiles and restraint. “Nope, not yet,” she says with a chuckle, muffling her frustration. “Well, don’t wait forever. That clock is ticking, ya know,” the sage says before departing, happy with herself for imparting such erudite wisdom. The sage leaves. The woman holds her smile. Alone, she cries...

Cries because she’s been pregnant 4 times and miscarried every one. Cries because she started trying for a baby on her wedding night, and that was 5 years ago. Cries because her husband has an ex-wife and she has given him children. Cries because she wants desperately to try in vitro but can’t even afford the deposit. Cries because she’s done in vitro (multiple rounds) and still has no children. Cries because her best friend wouldn’t be a surrogate. “It would be too weird,” she said. Cries because her medication prevents pregnancy.

Cries because her husband blames himself, and that guilt makes him a hard person to live with. Cries because all of her sisters have children. Cries because one of her sisters didn’t even want children. Cries because her best friend is pregnant. Cries because she got invited to another baby shower. Cries because her mother keeps asking, “Girl, what are you waiting for?” Cries because her in-laws want to be grandparents. Cries because her neighbor has twins and treats them terribly. Cries because 16-year-olds get pregnant without trying. Cries because she’s an amazing aunt. Cries because she’s already picked out names. Cries because there’s an empty room in her house. Cries because there is an empty space in her body. Cries because she has so much to offer. Cries because he’d be a great dad. Cries because she’d be a great mother, but isn’t.

Preview photo credit Rabbit Hole / Odd Lot Entertainment

Somewhere else there’s another woman: 34, 5 children. People say to her, “5? Good lord, I hope you’re done!” And then they laugh... because those types of comments are funny. The woman laughs too, but not in earnest. She changes the subject, as she always does, and gives the disrespect a pass. Just another day. Alone, she cries... Cries because she’s pregnant with another and feels like she has to hide the joy. Cries because she always wanted a big family and doesn’t see why people seem so disturbed by it. Cries because she has no siblings and felt profoundly lonely as a child. Cries because her Granny had 12 and she’d love to be just like her.

Cries because she couldn’t imagine life without her children, but people treat her like they’re a punishment. Cries because she doesn’t want to be pitied. Cries because she and her husband are perfectly capable of supporting their family, but that doesn’t seem to matter. Cries because they assume she’s just irresponsible. Cries because she’s tired of the “funny” comments. Cries because she minds her own business. Cries because sometimes she doubts herself and wonders if she should have stopped 2 kids ago. Cries because people are rude. Cries because all she wants to do is live in peace.

Another woman: 40, one child. People say to her, “Only one? You never wanted any more?” “I’m happy with my one,” she says calmly, a rehearsed response she’s given more times than she can count. It’s pretty believable. No one would ever suspect that alone, she cries... Cries because her one pregnancy was a miracle. Cries because her son still asks for a brother or sister. Cries because she always wanted at least 3. Cries because her second pregnancy had to be terminated to save her life. Cries because her doctor says it would be “high-risk.” Cries because she’s struggling to care for the one she has.

Cries because her husband died and she hasn’t found love again. Cries because her family thinks one is enough. Cries because she’s deep into her career and can’t step away. Cries because her postpartum depression was so intense. Cries because she had to have a hysterectomy. Cries because she wants another baby, but can’t have it.

These women are everywhere. They are our neighbors, our friends, our sisters, our co-workers, our cousins. They have no use for our advice or opinions. Their wombs are their own. Let’s respect that.

Are Going on Tour Together to Bring Emo Back

Whether we like to admit it or not, we all went through that emo phase in our adolescence.

Thick black kohl eyeliner, snake-bite piercings, energy drink running through the veins... being emo was pretty cool back in the day.

But it turns out, being emo is still pretty cool, and it's about to make its biggest come-back yet.

3 of the biggest names in the emo music genre have announced a huge mega-tour and it's going to be wonderfully nostalgic for all of us emo kids out there, so keep scrolling to find out more...

Everyone has been emo at some point in their lives...

Whether that was dying neon pink strips into your hair, over-doing the liquid eyeliner, or wearing spikes as jewelry – being emo defined many individuals and it was a way of life.

Being emo isn't a bad thing...

Emo stands for “emotional,” and despite the stereotype of emos being depressed all the time, people who identify as emo are generally very happy and loving people.

And it isn't just about the eyeliner and facial piercings...

Emo has an entire music genre that is still pretty popular to this very day.

The emo genre goes a lot further back than one would expect...

via: Getty Images

The first wave of emo music began in the 1980s, with it tracing back to the hardcore-punk scene.

The term "emo" was rejected in the music world...

via: Getty Images


According to NME, it was the infamous punk-rock band The Rites of Spring who made a call out against it, with singer Guy Picciotto saying in an interview: “I’ve never recognized ’emo’ as a genre of music.”

“I just thought that all the bands I played in were punk-rock bands. The reason I think it’s so stupid is that – what, like the Bad Brains weren’t emotional? What – they were robots or something? It just doesn’t make any sense to me.”

Emo was having a hard time being heard in the music industry...

via: Getty Images

The skate magazine Thrasher renamed the genre emo-core, in which Ian McKaye from Embrace branded it as “the stupidest f****** thing I’ve ever heard.”

The 1990s brought emo into their second wave...

As NME outlined, it’s an era that captured the hearts and minds of global youth, with a generation of teenagers quickly becoming enamored with emo’s woeful sound.

The third wave of emo was when things really exploded...

By the time the Millenium came around, the boundaries of emo had been pushed even further.

It became intertwined with pop-punk with the likes of Jimmy Eat World, Saves the Day, and Brand New – but it is MySpace that we truly have to thank for the rise in emo music.

MySpace took emo from a music genre to a culture.

This is when the emo giants made an appearance with their poker straight hair and skin-tight jeans.

My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, Panic! At The Disco, and Paramore were amongst the many large bands that quickly dominated the emo music scene.

It wasn't everyone's cup of tea...

Newspapers such as The Daily Mail declared that it was a “cultural crisis point” and to many, the sound of emo music certainly came across this way.

Icons were made overnight...

Bands such as Fall Out Boy, Green Day, and Weezer became iconic faces in the emo music scene.

The true faces of emo...

All 3 bands have been around since the late 1990s through to the noughties and have each made their own impact on the world of emo music as we know it.

It's been a fairly quiet few years for these bands...

via: Getty Images

Green Day has been off the road since their Revolution Radio tour in 2017, as have Fall Out Boy with an exceptionally quiet year apart from 3 one-off festival dates.

Weezer, however, has been extremely active since their cover of Toto’s “Africa” went viral and became a huge hit… weirdly.

A major announcement has been made...

The 3 bands have recently announced a combined tour in 2020 to officially bring emo music back.

The Hella Mega tour will kick off June 2020 in Paris...

via: Rolling Stone


Fall Out Boy, Green Day, and Weezer will be truly joining forces to bring us the best of emo.

They will begin the European leg of the tour in Paris before moving onto North America the following month.


ADVERTISEMENT





They have released a full month's worth of dates in the U.S...



The first U.S date is the 17th of July 2020 at Seattle’s T-Mobile park and the tour is wrapped up at Citizen’s Bank Park in Philadelphia on August 29th.


ADVERTISEMENT





Weezer will perform first, followed by Fall Out Boy and then Green Day who will close the show...

via: Getty Images

Billie Joe Armstrong, the vocalist of Green Day, spoke to Rolling Stone and said: “We talked about how we weren’t really wanting to do stadiums and do something that was like a throwback to the Monsters of Rock Tour,” in reference to a series of metal tours in the 1980s and ’90s.

It's safe to say that all bands involved cannot wait to get the show on the road...

via: Getty Images

“There was, of course, Fall Out Boy and Weezer, and now we’re stoked,” he went on to say.

The bands aren't the only ones excited for the tour...

I can't even begin to say how excited I am for this!!! Fingers crossed I can get tickets :-D HELLA MEGA TOUR w/ Green Day, Fall Out Boy, Weezer + The Interrupters https://t.co/iJTbJDNB69 via @YouTube— Melissa Russo (@MJam76) September 12, 2019

Especially for Green Day and Fall Out Boy fans, who haven’t had the opportunity to see their favorite bands live for a few years, fans all around the world cannot contain their excitement for the Hella Mega tour.

A lot is to be expected...

Am I ready to drop hundreds of dollars on a Green Day, Fall Out Boy, and Weezer concert?

HELL YEAH I AM #hellamegatour pic.twitter.com/NiHxAkbNUE— derrick crecelius (@D_Crecelius) September 7, 2019

Tickets for the tour will go on sale at 10 am ET on Friday the 20th of September and can be purchased on their website.

Jaycee Dugard Was Kidnapped For 18 Years

Here’s What She Looked Like After Her Rescue

via: Daily Mail

When she was just 11 years old, Jaycee Lee Dugard was abducted near Lake Tahoe, California.

While she was walking to her school bus stop, Phillip Garrido shocked her with a stun gun and took her back to his cabin.


For 18 years, she was held by Phillip and his wife Nancy.

via: ABC News

Search efforts proved fruitless, but after years of suffering, she found her way free.

See how she did it and what she looks like now.

Here's the photo of her that made national news when she was reported missing.

via: NJN

This appeared on news broadcasts throughout the US.

Here are her captors, Phillip and Nancy Garrido.

via: The Times

Phillip was a drug addict and had a dark history of sexual deviancy.

As you can tell from this pic, things didn’t work out too well for them.

Here's an aerial view of the home.

via: Daily Mail

The diagram shows the shed which housed not just Jaycee, but also her daughters (that she unwillingly had with Garrido) as well.

They were allowed outside, and utilized a swing set on the house's property.

via: Daily Mail

The children were also kept in this tent as well.

via: Telegraph

It seems far from secure, but the children were likely so scared that they never thought to run away due to the risk of harm should they have been caught.
