Magical underwear Vs Onnara
Magical underwear from Japan. Magic ? Yeah ... it's quite different from the usual cotton or nylon underwears. It's more durable, absorbs sweat , and it is better. For more, please go to :
But you all would agree with me that the ONNARA is much more magical !!
Wearing bra makes breasts sagging
Wearing bra makes your breasts sag ! It's not just a contrarian view. Research shows that this is TRUE !! For more, please go to http://in.screen.yahoo.com/wearing-bra-makes-breasts-sag-131411042.html
For generations, women have been advised that wearing a bra would keep breasts from sagging, prevent back pain and improve posture.
Wrong, wrong and wrong, according to a study conducted by Jean-Denis Rouillon, a sports medicine specialist from the Centre Hospitalier Universitaire in Besancon, France.
"Medically, physiologically, anatomically — breasts gain no benefit from being denied gravity," Rouillon said. "On the contrary, they get saggier with a bra."
