WHY SIRT IS CONSISTENTLY PROVIDING THE BEST PLACEMENTS IN MADHYA PRADESH?
The Sagar Institute of Research & Technology is among top engineering colleges in Bhopal. It imparts top class education in Engineering, Management, Pharmacy, and Diploma. They organize a number of campus drives throughout the year for placement of their students, differentiating them as Top Placement College in MP. Sagar Institute of Research and Technology is one of the most renowned colleges of Central India. It is famed for being the top campus recruitments college in Bhopal MP as they always give more than 95% joining ratio. They have many renowned public and private industry giants in their recruiters and a number of training tie-ups.
Recruiters: HSBC, Infosys, Tata, Amazon, HCL, Adobe, Adani, Byju’s, Accenture etc.
Training Tie-Ups with Airtel, Eicher, MTNL, BSNL, BHEL, IndianOil etc.
The Entrepreneurship Development Cell (EDC) of Sagar Group of Institutions (SGI) aims to develop and reinforce entrepreneurial abilities in students who want to create their own businesses. The college generates new ideas and provides students with the infrastructure, amenities, and technical assistance they need to turn those ideas into new goods and services for the betterment of society. The EDC assists all applicants in converting their start-up ideas into viable businesses by providing planning, coaching, and time-related execution help. The EDC of SIRT has worked even harder to involve sponsors such as banks, state and national entrepreneurship training organisations, private investors, and Central Government schemes that benefit students, suppliers, and the market.
At SIRT, to encourage the learning and curiosity of students different teaching methods are adopted which include
Emphasis on Practical learning
Practical lessons are designed to guide and familiarise students with real-world scenarios so that they can apply their newly gained practical knowledge and abilities in the workplace. During the practical period, the SIRT organises special tests and reflection sessions to assess the students' learning.
Involvement in live projects
Our teaching methods place a strong emphasis on live projects, which allow students to learn and express the capabilities of current thinking and knowledge as needed in the real world.
Thinking Out Loud
Brainstorming is a technique for generating ideas in a group. It's most commonly utilized in the early stages of a project, when the project's potential isn’t fully known or specified. It allows you to quickly tap into the imagination of a small group of individuals to generate a large number of ideas.
Tutorials and Case Studies
To provide interactive classes in theoretical disciplines, SIRT supports case study and tutorial-based teaching methodologies. It allows students to solve issues, devise exercises, and improve critical thinking skills.
Industrial Visits for Learning
SIRT often hosts industrial visits for students in related professions in order to broaden their knowledge and skills in contemporary technology, which is critical for a student's professional development. It is taught as part of the college curriculum, primarily in engineering, pharmacy, and MBA programmes.
Apart from this, there are many ways for students to get involved on campus so, in Sagar Group of Institutions, we have formed Student Activity Centre (SAC) which serve as a connection point for the students in finding the niche that is right for them. It includes student activities dedicated to helping students in developing their personality, perception, learning and attitude which in turn make a positive impact on the environment of the Institution.
The T&P department of SIRT is what majorly distinguishes it from other colleges
SIRT College's Training & Placement cell is dedicated to assisting students in searching for employment and internships. The institution's Training and Placement section is a vital component. It prepares students for final placement by coaching, developing, brushing, and preparing them. Various industry experts and reputable firms were invited for campus recruitment visits in several departments. The department works closely with the business sector and provides a well-developed infrastructure to make campus selection programmes more efficient. The location department collaborates with other departments to adapt students to the needs of many sectors. They also hold various campus drives for their students throughout the year and have a number of potential recruiters and training tie-ups that majorly distinguish it as one of the Top Colleges.

MĂĄs razones para usar canela
Sabíamos que la canela puede ayudar a prevenir los picos de glucosa y proteger contra la resistencia a la insulina, uno de los mayores factores de riesgo para la diabetes. 
Tumblr media
Un nuevo estudio [1] presentado en el encuentro anual de la American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology sugiere un mecanismo potencial para estos efectos, sosteniendo aĂșn mĂĄs la idea de que la canela es un potenciador metabĂłlico. De hecho, los investigadores afirman que los beneficios de esta especia pueden ir mĂĄs allĂĄ del control de la glucosa en sangre.
Amy Sotckert, profesor asociado de bioquímica en la Ohio Northem University Raabe College of Pharmacy, ha estado estudiando la canlea durante años. En 2015 sus investigaciones [2] mostraron que pacientes con diabetes tipo 2 que tomaron suplementos de canela diariamente, mostraron las mås grandes reducciónes en la glucosa en sangre que aquellos que tomaban un placebo.
Algunos de sus efectos permanecieron incluso despuĂ©s de que los participantes dejaran de tomar los suplementos, lo que sugiere, segĂșn Amy Sotckert que estos cambios han quedado establecidos a nivel celular.
“Empezamos a sospechar que una de las proteinas relacionadas con la expresiĂłn gĂ©nica habĂ­a sido influenciada por la canela”.
Sus mĂĄs recientes investigaciones, que aĂșn no han sido publicadas, se centran en la Sirtuina-1 (Sirt-1), una proteina que es clave para la regulaciĂłn de la insulina.
“Sabemos que la Sirt-1 actĂșa sobre otras proteinas que afectan a cĂłmo se transporta la glucosa; asĂ­ que tiene sentido que pueda ser la clave principal”.
Sabemos que la Sirt-1 se activa con el resveratrol, un antioxidante que se encuentra en el vino tinto que se ha hecho popular por sus propiedades antienvejecimiento y por contribuir a bajar el colesterol. La canela contiene compuestos similares, conocidos como fenoles los cuales, cree Stockert que podrían también unirse a la Sirt-1 de la misma manera. Ella y sus colegas usan un modelo computacional para probar sus hipótesis y han descubierto que los fenoles de la canela realizan similares o, incluso, mås potentes interacciones con dicha proteina.
Esto sugiere que los fenoles de la canela también activan la Sirt-1 proporcionando una posible explicación para sus propiedades benéficas.
“Si esto es cierto, significa que la canela hace mĂĄs que simplemente bajar los niveles de azĂșcar. ActuarĂ­a tambiĂ©n sobre una proteina que afecta al metabolismo lipĂ­dico, cambios en el crecimiento celular y la expresiĂłn de varios genes”.
Las investigaciones previas de Stockert mostraron que las personas que consumen 1 gramo diario de canela mostraron reducciones de la glucosa en sangre comparables a las que se podrían esperar de las drogas de prescripción. Pero ella cree que incluso cantidades mås pequeñas, como aquellas usadas como codimento en la cocina, podrían también ser beneficiosas. 
“Si la canela interactĂșa con ciertas enzimas de la forma en que nuestro modelo sugiere, podrĂ­a relacionarse con efectos antienvejecimiento, control antioxidante y un montĂłn de importantes beneficios sobre la salud. Y bastarĂ­a 1 gramo diario para observar estos efectos”.
Stockert recomienda comprar canela, entera o en polvo, de una calidad confiable. Su equipo estå ahora estudiando los efectos de la canela en las células grasas y espera expandir sus investigaciones a las células musculares y hepåticas también.
AĂșn cuando queda mucho por estudiar sobre la canela, parece buena idea añadirla a la dieta diaria.

Study suggests how cinnamon may help lower blood glucose levels
New Post has been published on http://type2diabetestreatment.net/diabetes-research/study-suggests-how-cinnamon-may-help-lower-blood-glucose-levels/
Study suggests how cinnamon may help lower blood glucose levels

Scientists have long suspected that cinnamon can help prevent blood-sugar spikes and protect against insulin resistance, a risk factor for diabetes. But how, exactly, has remained a mystery—and while some studies have suggested a strong effect, others have been inconclusive.
New research presented Saturday at the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology annual meeting suggests a potential mechanism for these effects, lending support to the idea of cinnamon as a metabolic powerhouse. In fact, researchers say, the spice’s benefits may extend far beyond blood-sugar control.
Amy Stockert, associate professor of biochemistry at Ohio Northern University Raabe College of Pharmacy , has been studying cinnamon for years. In 2015, her research showed that type 2 diabetics who took daily cinnamon supplements saw greater reductions in blood sugar than those who took a placebo.
Some of these effects lasted even after participants stopped taking the supplements, says Stockert, which suggested that lasting changes had been triggered at the cellular level. “We started to suspect that one of the proteins involved in gene expression was being influenced by cinnamon,ïżœïżœïżœ she says.
Her new research, which has not yet been published in a peer-reviewed journal, focuses on Sirtuin-1 (also called Sirt-1)—a protein that’s active in insulin regulation. “We know that Sirt-1 acts on another protein that affects how glucose is transported,” says, “so it made sense that it might be the key player.”
Scientists know that Sirt-1 is activated by resveratrol, an antioxidant found in red wine that’s been touted for its anti-aging and cholesterol-lowering properties. Cinnamon contains similar compounds, known as phenols, which Stockert thought might also bind to Sirt-1 molecules in the same way. She and her colleagues used a computer model to test this hypothesis, and discovered that the cinnamon phenols had similar, sometimes even stronger interactions with the protein.
This suggests that the phenols in cinnamon also activate Sirt-1, providing a possible explanation for their beneficial properties. “If that’s true, it means cinnamon is doing more than just lowering blood sugar,” says Stockert. “It’s acting on a protein that affects lipid metabolism, cell growth changes, and the expression of a variety of genes.”
Stockert’s previous research found that people who consumed 1 gram a day of cinnamon saw blood sugar reductions comparable to what would be expected from prescription drugs. But she believes that even smaller quantities—like those used in cooking and seasoning—could also have benefits.
“If cinnamon interacts with this enzyme in the way our model suggests, it could possibly be linked to anti-aging, antioxidant control, a lot of really important health benefits,” she says. “And it shouldn’t take one gram a day to see those effects.”
Stockert recommends buying cinnamon—whole or ground—from reputable spice companies. Her team is now studying the effects of cinnamon on fat cells, and hope to expand their research to muscle and liver cells, as well.
Nancy Farrell, a registered dietitian and spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, says that while the research on blood sugar is still inconclusive, it’s encouraging that the topic is being studied further.
“Cinnamon, in moderation and in daily foods, is generally a good habit,” says Farrell.
Farrell recommends adding cinnamon to oatmeal, toast, butternut squash, chili, and more. She cautions that above-average doses can worsen liver function for people with existing liver damage, and “use of cinnamon supplements should always be discussed with your physician.”
This isn’t the first time cinnamon’s been touted for its health benefits beyond blood sugar control—and it's certainly not the final word. But given the low risk and reported benefits, it seems a worthwhile addition to your diet, if you like the taste.
