Top 8 problems with Snoring

My husband have not had any health problems just snoring in sleep at night, be sure that the regular one? However, change your mind. Snoring can be caused by heart disease. Blood may pressure rise. Might may be affected by road traffic accidents on the morning of the absence of sleep.  Don’t neglect about snoring, consult a physician for treatment.

Healthy people were sleep without any disturbance. If they wake up 4,5 times in night immediately they can sleep again. Such this people don’t have any problem. But those who are suffering with snoring, they can’t sleep perfectly even ten minutes also. In general we breathe air through nose. When air entrance area becomes narrow in nose then the air will intake from your mouth. If the mouth gate also narrow and air will pass from that small area only, As a result, the air is the sound of a trip there.

How to Survive With Lung Cancer?

Lot of people will start smoking as fashion. They don’t know at that time smoking will leads to lung cancer. Some time ago there are no better treatments available for lung cancer. But better treatments are currently available for this disease.  However, an early stage detected of cancer there is chance to survive.

Lungs will provide oxygen to body, If cancer attacks at lungs total body system will collapse. Those people were stricken to lung cancer difficult to recover. Lungs will absorb oxygen which we take from air and it will send to blood flow. From blood flow oxygen will supply to the total body.  Lungs have much priority in our body, but it getting infection through smoking and other causes of infection begins. It can lead to cancer. Lung cancer have for stages.

How to Live Long Life?

I know you have already read several times about exercises for good health. Then what is the new here?

 

Just Read This....

 

As per Stanford university researches, Running or jogging will increase life span. They are selected 440 persons for this research. Lot of people was in nearly 50 years age. Stanford University Researches for 19 years on this people. 

As per their researches, just 15% people were passes way in early stages in these two decades, those who are walking and jogging daily.  

What about HIV?

TODAY WORLDS AIDS DAY

Immune Deficiency is caused by Human Immuno Deficiency Virus (HIV). this virus reduces the strength of  immune system. The immunity system depends upon CD4, Positive T cells, and Macrophages count. As immunity power decreases, HIV effected person can’t tackle several minor infections, which may cause life threat.  

How to recognize HIV?

AIDS means “Acquired Immuno Deficiency syndrome”. Symptoms may not found in the people those who effected with HIV in early stages, Even them self or other persons also will not  recognize about  HIV infection. But in some persons after some time of period and at the time of seroconversion (at the time of anti bodies merging period in blood flow because of infection) “Anti retro viral Syndrome” will be recognize.

At this time patient will suffer like with Fever, Rash on skin, swelling in the limp nodes.  This type of symptoms will appear in HIV effected persons in period of 1 week to 6 weeks. At this time we will know that person is having HIV anti-bodies or not with blood test . 

HIV Symptoms.

• Fever, throat pain, headache, Muscles pain, Arthritis (This symptoms may continue up to 2 weeks)

• Swelling appears in some body organs mainly in limp nodes, which have situated at both sides of throat. (This symptom will be appear in persons those who suffering with HIV from long period)

• Rash on the Face, Neck, Chest.

HIV Symptoms in those who suffering from long period:

• Fever, Stomach Pain, Vomiting, Nausea, Loose Motions, Immediate weight loss.

• Other Infection like, Infection in Lungs, Infection in Brain, Eye infections, East infection in the mouth, White patches on the tongue.

After all these stages…. Immunity system power will be slowly come down. With the loss of immunity system, HIV effected person’s body could not ---------------- any small infection also. This situation leads to life’s risk. This is condition of AIDS.

How HIV leads to AIDS…..

CD -4 cells will provide immunity power to our body. HIV will reduce the CD-4 count. If treatment  is not provided to HIV affected person, his immunity will reduce slowly, as result of which his body cannot tackle minor infections, and this will eventually lead to AIDS. If the CD – 4 count reduces below 200/mm³ the situation is called AIDS.

  

HIV leads to other infections and diseases, such as

·         HIV – Associated Nephropathy (Kidney related diseases)

·         Changes in brain functioning

·         Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C,

·         TB (Tuberculosis)

Bariatric Surgery is One of the way for reduce Obesity

Lot of people will eat regularly something junk foods like, chips, pizzas, Burgers and fat foods also. At the time of eating they will drink cool drinks.  Like this habits calories will hike in their body. Even people they don’t know they are going to suffer with obesity. Those persons who are suffering with diabetes, High Blood Pressure, Arthritis and more will be lead to obesity.

I am writing this article today, on the occasion of “World Obesity Prevention Day” (26-11-2012). 

Better Prevention Options for Heart Diseases....

Now a days lot of people working with brain, because body relaxing, means body is not involving proper hard work.We have to choose some work for body also. Some work outs like walking, swimming, Jogging and more... 

Each and every person should workout minimum 30 minutes per day. Running and Swimming will give good health to heart for those who are in young age. Those  who suffering with diabetes, blood pressure they must to do walking, jogging or indoor exercises like skipping, mild dance, yoga etc.

FAQ's for diabetes people about physical activity

Why is it important for people with diabetes to be physically active?

Physical activity can help you control your blood glucose, weight, and blood pressure, as well as raise your “good” cholesterol and lower your “bad” cholesterol. It can also help prevent heart and blood flow problems, reducing your risk of heart disease and nerve damage, which are often problems for people with diabetes.

FAQ's (Frequently asked questions) About Diabetes

What are the most important things to do to prevent diabetes?

A study of Diabetes Prevention Program showed that people can delay and possibly prevent the disease by losing a small amount of weight (5 to 7 percent of total body weight) through 30 minutes of physical activity 5 days a week and healthier eating.

So, Don’t do delay to work out something to reduce your weight up to 7% , This is the major activity to you.

More on VITILOGO

Vitiligo - is the most common chromatosis, 3-4% of people with skin diseases.


Frequency in the population is 0,14-8,8%. Can occur at any age in both sexes and all races. In 25% of cases for the first time begins at the age of 12, 50% - up to 20 years.

Vitiligo white patches appears on different parts of the skin. The disease is often seen as a cosmetic defect, but the evidence of irregularities of the body as a whole system.

Degree and rate of development of the process of depigmentation usually depend on compensation related chronic diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, liver, neurosis and pathology of endocrine glands. In the latter case, the most frequently observed dysfunction of the thyroid gland and the adrenal cortex.

The appearance of white spots due to the destruction of melanocytes, cells located in the basal layer of the skin, with numerous processes.

Education skin coloring agent melanin - a complex biochemical process. It begins with the hydroxylation of essential amino acid phenylalanine to tyrosine, which is activated by the action of tyrosinase by copper ions is oxidized to dihydroxyphenylalanine and then dioksidenilalaninhinon.

As a result of spontaneous oxidation last turns into melanin. Melanin is the melanocytes, which are unicellular glands. From melanocytes are distributed pigment in keratinocytes, moving it to the outer layers of the epidermis, where it has a protective function

from harmful solar radiation and irradiation.

Vitiligo occurs when the destruction of melanocytes not only in the lesion, but also in the surrounding intact skin.

Currently, there are three main hypotheses to explain the development of vitiligo - neural, and autoimmune augodestruktivnaya.

According to the neural hypothesis, high concentrations of neurochemical substances (acetylcholine,

norepinephrine, epinephrine) around the pigment cells reduces the production of melatonin.

The content of acetylcholine in the skin regulates enzyme cholinesterase. With age, the level around

hair follicles is reduced, which leads to an increase in local concentrations of ACh, causing graying hair. By analogy allows for the loss of skin pigment at lower cholinesterase in the microenvironment of pigment cells.

In the occurrence of vitiligo is important, some authors give the neuro-psychological, psycho-emotional factors, stressful situations. A role in this case have metabolic catecholamines. With nervous excitement norepinephrine and other mediators released from nerve endings involved in the destruction of melanocytes. Catecholamine levels in the urine of patients with vitiligo increased. They have a direct cytotoxic effect on melanocytes due to the presence in their structure of the phenolic ring. These

substances are readily oxidized to form toxic radicals. In the skin and mucosal vasoconstriction occurs, leading to hypoxia of the skin and the accumulation of free radicals.

Augodestruktivnaya hypothesis in the origin of vitiligo basic knowledge ¬ chenie gives phenol and its derivatives, which have a cytotoxic effect on pigment cells. Substances with an aromatic or aliphatic chains can cause depigmentation of the skin. Vitiligo is common among workers employed in the manufacture of rubber and plastic products, household chemicals, with various contacts with phenol

and its derivatives. Supposed hereditary sensitivity to phenols.

According to the autoimmune theory, vitiligo considered an autoimmune disease. The basis for this are due to a number of immune disorders - tireiodit Hashimoto, diabetes, thyrotoxicosis, Down syndrome, disgammaglobulinemiya, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, adrenal insufficiency. Attempts to identify antimelanotsitarnye antibodies and cytotoxic lymphocytes were unsuccessful, have been identified as any immunootvetstvennyh genes. Some authors have noted in patients with vitiligo high activity of natural killer cells, with normal T and B lymphocytes. When duration of the disease over 5 years null cells are involved in the process of destruction of melanocytes, although the effect of killer

not specified.

In the pathogenesis of the disease has a significant role the endocrine system, especially the function of the thyroid gland. In some cases, after surgical skin pigmentation is restored.

Uncertainty of the etiology and pathogenesis of insufficient knowledge, persistent chronic disease, susceptibility to the spread of the process cause difficulties in treating vitiligo.

To date there are no radical chemotherapy reducing skin pigmentation. Traditionally appointed agents copper, B vitamins, benzonal, FHG and others do not give the severity of clinical outcome, and the side effects of medication stops the doctor from any destination

therapy, because can lead to iatrogenic diseases.

What is Bariatric Surgery?

Gastrointestinal surgery for obesity, also called bariatric as surgery , this alters the digestive process so that patients lose their weight safely and effectively. 

There are three types of  laparoscopic bariatric surgical options now a days famous hospitals are offering.

ie. stay in hospital short period and a faster return to work and activity.

1.Gastric Banding: Gastric Banding is a restrictive operation in witch a band is placed around the upper portion of the stomach to decrease the amount of food the stomach can physically hold. it does not interfere with the normal digestive process. Weight loss achieved by decreased food intake. Currently requires one night stay in hospital

ROLE OF NONI IN KIDNEY DISEASES

 Chronic renal failure (CRF) is the progressive loss of kidney function. The kidneys attempt to compensate for renal damage by hyper filtration (excessive straining of the blood) within the remaining functional nephrons (filtering units that consist of a glomerulus and corresponding tubule). Over time, hyper filtration causes further loss of function.

Chronic loss of function causes generalized wasting (shrinking in size) and progressive scarring within all parts of the kidneys. In time, overall scarring obscures the site of the initial damage. Yet, it is not until over 70% of the normal combined function of both kidneys is lost that most patients begin to experience symptoms of kidney failure.

Cardiovascular System

The heart, blood vessels, and blood comprise your cardiovascular system. Blood (shown in red) moving from heart delivers oxygen and nutrients to every part of the body. On the return trip, the blood (shown in blue) picks up waste products so that your body can get rid of them.

Your heart is a muscle about the size of a clenched fist. It contracts and relaxes about 70 times a minute at rest (more if you are exercising), beats about 30,000,000 times a year, and pumps about 4,000 gallons of blood daily through its chambers to all parts of the body. Your blood travels through a rubbery collection of big and small vessels. If strung together end to end, they can stretch 60,000 miles (enough to circle the globe 2 1/2 times)!

As you inhale, air is sent down to your lungs. Blood is pumped from the heart through the pulmonary artery to your lungs where carbon dioxide is removed from it and oxygen is mixed in with it. The oxygenated blood is carried back to the heart through the pulmonary vein. The arteries carry blood away from your heart under high pressure to smaller and smaller branched tubes called capillaries. This delivers oxygen to all the cells in your body including bones, skin, and all organs. Veins bring oxygen-depleted blood back to the heart.

Your blood is mostly comprised of a colorless liquid called plasma. Red blood cells (which give blood its red appearance) deliver oxygen to cells and carry back waste gases in exchange. White blood cells attack and kill germs and Platelets cells help your body repair itself after injury.

Your cardiovascular system is a beautiful symphony which sustains your life. Often it is taken for granted and little is done to ensure its long-term performance. Lack of preventive care will transform your cardiovascular system into a time bomb.

Cardiovascular Disorders

In 2004, cardiovascular diseases claimed 869,724 lives in the United States (36.3% of all deaths). 148,000 lives belonged to Americans under 65. According to 2005 estimates from the American Heart Association, 80,700,000 people in the United States have one or more forms of cardiovascular disease:

1) High Blood Pressure - 73,000,000

High blood pressure puts added force against the artery walls which overtime damages the arteries making them more vulnerable to the narrowing and plaque build up associated with atherosclerosis.

2) Coronary Heart Disease (caused by atherosclerosis, the narrowing of the coronary arteries due to fatty buildups of plaque which blocks the flow of blood to heart muscle thus depriving the heart of oxygen. It is likely to cause Chest Pain and / or Heart Attack) - 16,000,000

Myocardial Infraction (acute heart attack occurs when a clot or spasm blocks an already narrowed coronary artery, restricting oxygen to a portion of heart muscle resulting in permanent injury) - 8,100,000

Angina Pectoris (chest pain or discomfort caused by reduced blood supply to the heart muscle) - 9,100,000

An estimated 1,200,000 Americans will have a new or recurrent coronary attack this year, and about 310,000 will die as a result.

3) Stroke (occurs when a blood vessel in the brain is blocked or bursts) - 5,800,000

Without blood and the oxygen it carries, part of the brain starts to die and the part of the body controlled by the damaged area of the brain won't work properly.

Brain damage can begin within minutes of a stroke.

4) Heart Failure (the heart does not pump as well as it should) - 5,300,000

About 550,000 people are diagnosed with heart failure each year.

It is the leading cause of hospitalization in people older than 65.

5) Arrhythmia (Abnormal Heart Rhythm) - more than 850,000 Americans are hospitalized for an Arrhythmia each year. It is caused by many factors including:

Coronary Heart Disease

Electrolyte imbalance in your blood (such as sodium or potassium)

Changes in your heart muscle

Injury from a heart attack

Healing process after heart surgery

6) Aortic Aneurysm (bulge in a section of the aorta which can burst causing serious bleeding which can lead to death within minutes) - approximately 176,000 Americans are affected annually leading to 15,000 deaths per year.

Medical problems such as high blood pressure and atherosclerosis weakening artery walls as well as wear and tear that occurs with aging can result in outward bulging of the aortic wall.

The slower flow of blood in the bulging area can cause clots to form. If a blood clots breaks off in the chest area, it can travel to the brain and cause a stroke. If blood clots break off in the belly area, they can block blood flow to the belly or legs.

cardiovascular disease Risk Factors

Risk Factors

As of 2006, 51% of men and 40% of women at age 50 in the United States will develop cardiovascular disease during their lifetime. The primary determinants of risk are:

Smoking - Smokers' risk of developing coronary heart disease is 2–4 times that of nonsmokers. Cigarette smoking also acts with other risk factors to greatly increase the risk for coronary heart disease.

High Cholesterol - As blood cholesterol rises, so does risk of coronary heart disease. When other risk factors (such as high blood pressure and tobacco smoke) are present, this risk increases even more. A person's cholesterol level is also affected by age, sex, heredity and diet.

High Blood Pressure - High blood pressure increases the heart's workload, causing the heart to thicken and become stiffer. It also increases your risk of stroke, heart attack, kidney failure, and congestive heart failure. When high blood pressure exists with obesity, smoking, high blood cholesterol levels or diabetes, the risk of heart attack and stroke increases several times.

Physical Inactivity - An inactive lifestyle is a risk factor for coronary heart disease. Regular, moderate-to-vigorous physical activity helps prevent heart and blood vessel disease. The more vigorous the activity, the greater your benefits. However, even moderate-intensity activities help if done regularly and long term. Physical activity can help control blood cholesterol, diabetes and obesity, as well as help lower blood pressure.

Obesity / Excess Weight - People who have excess body fat (especially if a lot of it is on the waist) are more likely to develop heart disease and stroke even if they have no other risk factors. Excess weight increases the heart's work. It also raises blood pressure and blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels, and lowers HDL ("good") cholesterol levels. Diabetes is more likely to develop. By losing even as few as 10 pounds, you can lower your heart disease risk.

Diabetes Mellitus - Diabetes seriously increases your risk of developing cardiovascular disease. Even when glucose (blood sugar) levels are under control, diabetes increases the risk of heart disease and stroke. The risks are even greater if blood sugar is not well controlled. Roughly 67% of men and 57% of women with diabetes at age 50 will develop cardiovascular disease by age 75. About three-quarters of diabetics die of some form of heart or blood vessel disease. If you have diabetes, it's extremely important to work with your healthcare provider to manage it and control any other risk factors you can.

Stress - Individual response to stress may be a contributing factor. Some scientists have noted a relationship between coronary heart disease risk and stress in a person's life, their health behavior, and socioeconomic status. These factors may affect established risk factors. For example, people under stress tend to overeat, smoke more, and increase alcohol consumption.

Alcohol - Drinking too much alcohol can raise blood pressure, cause heart failure, and lead to stroke. It can contribute to high triglycerides, cancer and other diseases, and produce irregular heartbeat. It contributes to obesity, alcoholism, suicide, and accidents. However the risk of heart disease in people who drink moderate amounts of alcohol (an average of one drink for women or two drinks for men per day) is lower than in nondrinkers. One drink is defined as 1-1/2 fluid ounces (floz) of 80-proof spirits (such as bourbon, Scotch, vodka, gin, etc.), 1 floz of 100-proof spirits, 4 floz of wine or 12 floz of beer. It is not recommended that nondrinkers start using alcohol or that drinkers increase the amount they drink to lower risk of cardiovascular disease.

If you reach the age of 50 with none of the above risk factors, the lifetime risk of cardiovascular disease is just 5% for men and 8% for women. There is a good chance the you will live into your 90s.

If the age of 50 is reached with two or more risk factors, then lifetime risk of cardiovascular disease jumps to 69% for men and 50% for women. The median survival rate for men and women with two risk factors is a decade shorter than the ones with none.

Dr Ralph Heinicke: Xeronine and Cell Regeneration

In the latter part of the 1900s, Dr. Ralph Heinicke discovered a special substance, called xeronine, produced in the body of a substance found in abundance in noni fruit. As a research in Hawaii, Dr. Ralph Heinicke became aware of the marvellous benefits of the NONI Fruit and set out to find the pharmacologically active ingredient of the NONI.

 

Paan, Gutca also causes Cancer

The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence has issued new guidelines aimed at helping people in South Asian communities to stop using smokeless tobacco products, the BBC reported.

NICE says too often people using these products are ignorant that they contain tobacco.

Awareness is also low among health professionals, it said.

And, unlike cigarettes, many smokeless products carry no warnings on packs, it added.

Not only these products contain tobacco, they have as much, if not more nicotine in them as smoked tobacco products do. So, like cigarettes, they are highly addictive, it advised.

They may also contain other unhealthy ingredients such as areca nuts - a mildly euphoric stimulant, known to be addictive and cancer-causing - and slaked lime, a chemical used to make cement, the guidelines said.

It's thought that using smokeless products is one of the main reasons why South Asian women are nearly four times more likely to develop oral cancers than women from other ethnic groups in England, it said.

"We hope that this guidance will inform health professionals of the risks posed by these products, so they can take action by asking patients of South Asian origin if they use smokeless tobacco, making sure they are aware of the health risks, and where appropriate referring people for support to help them stop using these products," said Professor Mike Kelly, director of the NICE Centre for Public Health Excellence.

According to the guidelines, smokeless tobacco products include - Tobacco with or without flavourants: misri India tobacco (powdered) and qimam (kiman); Tobacco with various alkaline modifiers: khaini, naswar (niswar, nass) and gul ; Tobacco with slaked lime as an alkaline modifier and areca nut: gutkha, zarda, mawa.
