Notes from readings

- pancreas either produces insufficient amounts of insulin or body cells become resistant to the hormone’s effects.

- Type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes.

- Although dietary measures are also important, it must be treated with insulin injections. About 60,000 people in the UK have this type of diabetes.

- The pancreas continues to secrete insulin but cells in the body become resistant to its effects.

- Diabetes mainly affects people over the age of 40 and is more common in overweight people.

- Condition may be treated with dietary measures only.

- Diabetes mellitus can sometimes develop during pregnancy. This is called gestational diabetes and is usually treated with insulin to maintain the health of the mother and baby.

- Type 1 diabetes is usually caused by an abnormal reaction in which the immune system destroys insulin-secreting cells in the pancreas.

- Type 2 diabetes are less well understood, but the genetics and obesity are important factors.

- The symptoms of type 2 may not be obvious or may go unnoticed until a routine medical check-up. The main symptoms of both forms may include:

- Excessive urination

- Thirst and a dry mouth

- Insufficient sleep because of the need to urinate at night.

- Lack of energy

- Blurry vision

- Weight loss

Symptoms of type 2 may go unnoticed until routine medical check up.

The main symptoms of both forms may include:

- excessive urination

- thirst and a dry mouth

- insufficient sleep because of the need to urinate at night.

- Lack of energy

- Blurry vision

- Weight loss

The main symptoms of ketoacidosis include:

- nausea and vomiting, sometimes with abdominal pain.

- Diabetes is a growing healthcare challenge worldwide.

-A considerable proportion

of people either have impaired glucose tolerance with a significant

risk of development of diabetes, or have undiagnosed Type 2

diabetes.

-Pivotal to reducing the risk of morbidity and the development

of complications and mortality is the normalisation of both fasting

and postprandial blood glucose levels.

-diabetes is reaching epidemic proportions

worldwide, with between 5 and 10% of the world population

affected.

- People with diabetes have approximately twice

the prevalence of hypertension compared with non-diabetic

patients

-40% of subjects were defined as hypertensive on entry

(receiving antihypertensive treatment or with a mean systolic

blood pressure ? 160 mmHg and/or a mean diastolic blood

pressure ? 90 mmHg)

-People with diabetes are 17 times more prone to kidney disease,

with diabetic nephropathy being the most common

complication [11]. Diabetic nephropathy may eventually

lead to end-stage renal disease and thus significant mortality.

-Approximately 30-40% of people with diabetes develop

retinopathy, and diabetes is the most common cause of blindness

in the working years of life in developed countries

-According to a 1997 estimate [12], 120 million people

have Type 2 diabetes (approximately 2% of the world population)

and an additional 4 million have Type 1 diabetes.

Type 2 diabetes accounts for more than 85% of all cases of

diabetes in developed countries and almost all cases in developing

countries. It appears to be epidemic (affecting a high

and increasing proportion of the population) in many parts

of the world, and represents a serious and growing global

health challenge primarily as a result of increased obesity,

ageing populations, increasing urbanisation and a more sedentary

lifestyle [34, 35]. However, data from many parts of

the world with high and increasing prevalence (Asia, Latin

America, China) are not broadly based, and so this estimate

is likely to be markedly low.

-Type 1 diabetes

is one of the most common childhood diseases in developed

European countries and the incidence has increased dramatically

in some newly prosperous countries

-The incidence of Type 2 diabetes in particular is expected

to increase considerably as developing countries become

more Westernised in terms of availability of healthcare and

modernisation of existing resources, as well as a result of

substantial improvements in diabetes surveillance and

screening. Growth is projected to be greatest in Asia and

Africa, where diabetes could become 2-3 times more common

than it is today [12]. By 2025, more than 75% of people

with diabetes will be from developing countries, compared

with 62% in 1995

-Type 2 diabetes suggests a need for continuing

attention to control of blood glucose, blood pressure

and blood lipids through medication, diet and exercise.

People with Type 1 diabetes, and increasingly those with

Type 2 diabetes, have the additional burden of subcutaneous

insulin injections, self-monitoring and care of their insulin

supplies and equipment.

Direct Quote

Dr Miriam’s definition of diabetes is:

“the inability of the body to use glucose for energy due to inadequate amounts of or loss of sensitivity to, the hormone insulin.”

Dr Miriam Stoppard. 2002, Family Health Guide, Dorling Kindersley Ltd, England, Page 504

Paraphrase

The body uses glucose as energy in order to perform work and if it fails because of insufficient amount of insulin (which is essential for the absorption of glucose) or because the body cells become more resistant to the hormone’s effect then we end up with the non-healthy state called diabetes.

Summary

Dr Stoppard states that “Glucose from the blood stream is the main source of energy for the body’s cells. Its absorption is enabled by the pancreas, which produces insulin. Among people suffering from diabetes mellitus, a build up of toxic by- products, like acetone with a pear drop smell, in the body occurs. This is caused by the use of other sources of energy than glucose. Hence the unused glucose accumulates in the blood and urine, causing high blood sugar levels. 1 in 10 diabetes depends on self administered injections of insulin and the rest take oral drug and are careful about their diet. These treatments are vital in preventing the symptoms of high blood sugar level like frequent passing of urine, thirst and loss of weight as well as complications leading to peripheral nerve disorders which may affect the eyes, kidneys, the cardiovascular system. The weakening of the immune system may also cause infections like cystitis.”

Introduction

Diabetes mellitus is developing in epidemic proportions in today’s world with 5 to 10% of the worldwide population affected. This disease is defined by Dr Stoppard, “as the inability of the body to use glucose for energy due to inadequate amounts of or loss of sensitivity to, the hormone insulin”. Which means that the body uses glucose in order to perform work and if it fails because of insufficient amount of insulin or because the body cells become more resistant to the hormone’s effect then we end up with the non-healthy state called diabetes.

There are two types of diabetes:

1- Type 1 which is caused by the abnormal reaction in which the immune system destroys insulin secreting cells in the pancreas. It is more common in childhood.

2- Type 2 which causes are less understood. However, genetics and overweight are important factors.

Causes

Diabetes of Type 1 is usually caused by some viral diseases which affect the immune system of the child, though the genetic factor of one parent suffering from type 1 diabetes may have some effect, however most children who develop type 1 diabetes do not have parents with diabetes. As for Type 2 diabetes it is the increase in food intake which leads to overweight and obesity as well as the living of a sedentary lifestyle and it mostly affects adults.

Symptoms

Both types of diabetes have the same symptoms where there is excessive urination which account for the thirst and dry mouth but also for the insufficient sleep at night because of the need to go to the toilet. This state is paralleled by the lack of energy; blur vision and quick weight loss, abdominal pain, deep breathing and acetone smell breath may also consist of symptoms of diabetes.

Treatment

While the Type 1 diabetes have to submit themselves to the burden of insulin injection, self monitoring and the care of their insulin supplies and equipments, though the Type 2 diabetes have the need to control their blood glucose, their blood pressure and their blood lipids these may be done through medication, diet and exercise but sometimes in addition the Type 2 diabetes have to make insulin injections as the Type 1’s diabetes with all the inconvenience attached to it. As for treatment by insulin Dr Stoppard states that “Glucose from the blood stream is the main source of energy for the body’s cells. Its absorption is enabled by the pancreas, which produces insulin. Among people suffering from diabetes mellitus, a build up of toxic by-products, like acetone with a pear drop smell, in the body occurs. This is caused by the use of other sources of energy than glucose. Hence the unused glucose accumulates in the blood and urine, causing high blood sugar levels. 1 in 10 diabetes depends on self administered injections of insulin and the rest take oral drug and are careful about their diet. These treatments are vital in preventing the symptoms of high blood sugar level like frequent passing of urine, thirst and loss of weight as well as complications leading to peripheral nerve disorders which may affect the eyes, kidneys, the cardiovascular system. The weakening of the immune system may also cause infections like cystitis.”

Hence, no complete cure of diabetes exist, for it is a chronic disease but it can be controlled so as not to cause more severe damage to the body which is affected by it. For that a healthy diet with special attention to avoid excessive drinking of alcoholic beverages and smoking. Special care should also be taken with the feet and the eyes. Medical check up as well as blood pressure measurement should be regular. While sports should be practiced excessive strenuous exercise should be avoided.

Short Term and Long Term effect

If left unattended the diabetes mellitus may give rise to both short-term and long term complications. In case of Type 1 neglect of treatment may lead to nausea and vomiting accompanied by abdominal pain and deep breathing, while an acetone smell breath is noted. If left untreated the subject quickly enter in a confusion state where dehydration may lead to coma and death. As for the Type 2 diabetes if left untreated as is often the cause long term diseases like cardiovascular diseases occurs which may end up in a stroke. These are consequences of high blood pressure and elevated cholesterol in the blood. There is an increase risk of cataracts in the eyes and symptoms of dizziness upon standing and poor circulation because of nerve damage may lead to ulcers and gangrene.

Conclusion

In conclusion it can be said that the Diabetes mellitus is a disease that compel the one suffering from it to adopt a healthier lifestyle so as to control the devastation that the disease may cause to the body and to avoid the shortening of one’s life.

And over the years, most of my employees have been single moms because I haven’t been able to attract, well, I would say single moms that I’ve had to train in the workplace and bring them under my wing and teach them the fundamentals of dental science.

Behavioral health resources are institutions set up to reform people. They could be alcoholic’s anonymous, mental institutions, rehabilitation centers, orphanages, counseling centers, etc. The aim of behavioral resources is to improve a person’s life by sharing his or her problem and finding a solution to overcome the problem. It involves sessions to induce positive thoughts in the person, quality services for mentally afflicted patients, thus leading them to lead healthy and happy lives. Helping people with compassion and going to the core of the problem is a part of any behavioral resource centre.

Mental health resources could be mental health institutions, mental health counselors, rehabilitation centers, etc. At such places, mentally retarded patients or mentally affected people get the required assistance. Some mental diseases are curable and with regular therapy and medication, the patient can be brought to his or her normal state of mind. Mental diseases like attention deficiency disorder, various phobias, depressive disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, etc. can be treated at such institutions. These diseases are curable because they are a state of mind and no damage has been done to the brain. However, mental diseases like Alzheimer’s, dementia, schizophrenia, etc. can be difficult and sometimes impossible to revert back as they are caused due to damage done to the brain.

Community health resources are organizations that encourage the people of a particular area or community to join as a member of the community health resource centre and aid in providing medical care to others from the same area. These community health centers also aim at providing unpaid healthcare to people who cannot afford expensive health care. Such centers are basically non profit organizations that aim at the welfare of the people. They provide for all kinds of healthcare such as pediatric, family healthcare, cosmetic care, all kinds of surgeries, cardio care, cancer care, ENT care, Ophthalmology, mental care, etc. They also educate other people on health, spread awareness, campaign for important health issues, etc.

Kid’s health resources are websites or institutions, which inform how to protect your children from newer diseases, about the nutrition of children, counseling, new researches and studies, preventive medicines, etc. These websites offer help with pediatric care too. Therefore, those mothers of newborn babies don’t have to go too far looking for help.

Women’s health resources are organizations, which offer diagnosis, treatment and healthcare tips to women. These organizations also provide help with domestic violence, coping with pregnancy, diet, etc. There are different health resources for men and women because each suffers a completely different set of problems. Conditions like menopause, breast cancer, and pregnancy are only seen in women and are difficult to deal with. While heart diseases, obesity, etc. are common in both. Also, in most parts of the world women form the neglected part of the society. So we need to pay more attention to them.

Men’s health resources are also organizations, which offer diagnosis, treatment and healthcare tips to men. Men deal with different problems like prostate cancer, impotency, etc. These healthcare centers give pointers about which health issues are more important and need to be focused on. They give information about regular check ups to be done if men are suffering from some serious illness. Men are generally not open when it comes to talking about their problems, because men are supposed to be tough. With the help of such organizations, they might be able to discuss their problems more freely and try to battle them.

doctors and nurses know how badly we need reform. We have broad agreement in Congress on about 80% of what we’re trying to achieve. And we continue to work on the other 20%. We have an agreement from the drug companies, who violently opposed reform in the past, to make prescription drugs more affordable for seniors. The AARP supports this policy, and agrees with us that reform must happen this year. But because we’re getting close, the fight is getting fierce. And the history is clear: …

Medicare to extend the life of this critical program, but also help those on Medicare pay for prescription drugs. Right now the payment for prescription drugs runs into a wall, seniors or disabled Americans who use prescriptions on a regular basis have help with Medicare Part D for a portion of those drug costs, and then there’s a, there’s a gap. So the drug companies have come forward as part of health reform and said they’re going to fill that doughnut hole, go, lower it by about 50%, …

The following are a set of well fundamented suggestions appliable to both the suffering and the healthy one in order to lower the blood pressure in his body. This not a drug based treatment, but merely natural principles that go with any medicine your doctor prescribes. Tip no1. Anyone who is seeking to lower his blood pressure should first consider stopping smoking. The carve for nicotine can be reduced by eating sunflower seeds, and nettle and oat infusion is also widely recognized as a great help. You should also try to quit smoking not all of a sudden, but do it gradually, in the course of 4 to 6 weeks. Tip no2. Another good way to lower blood pressure is to consume a lot of seaweeds. They are great because of their special property to lower the blood pressure by leveling the concentration of triglycerides, phospholipids and colesterols. In addition to this, seaweeds contain substances that dissolve the ‘fatty build-ups’ on the blood vessels, helping to create a steady heart beat. Tip no3. Beta-carotens do miracles when it comes to cutting the risk of a stroke attack, so foods with a high concentration of such compounds should definitely be part of your regular diet. Some of the most common examples are carrots, cabbage, dark leafy greens, apricots, winter squash and sweet potatoes. Natural food does play an important role in lowering blood pressure. Tip no4. Garlic is yet another remedy Mother Nature offers, very benefic for lowering the blood pressure. In addition to its other good effects on health, studies state that garlic has the abilities to reduce phospholipids and cholesterol, increasing immunity of the organism and reducing chances of strokes.

The following are a set of well fundamented suggestions appliable to both the suffering and the healthy one in order to lower the blood pressure in his body. This not a drug based treatment, but merely natural principles that go with any medicine your doctor prescribes.

Tip no1. Anyone who is seeking to lower his blood pressure should first consider stopping smoking. The carve for nicotine can be reduced by eating sunflower seeds, and nettle and oat infusion is also widely recognized as a great help. You should also try to quit smoking not all of a sudden, but do it gradually, in the course of 4 to 6 weeks.

Tip no2. Another good way to lower blood pressure is to consume a lot of seaweeds. They are great because of their special property to lower the blood pressure by leveling the concentration of triglycerides, phospholipids and colesterols. In addition to this, seaweeds contain substances that dissolve the ‘fatty build-ups’ on the blood vessels, helping to create a steady heart beat.

Tip no3. Beta-carotens do miracles when it comes to cutting the risk of a stroke attack, so foods with a high concentration of such compounds should definitely be part of your regular diet. Some of the most common examples are carrots, cabbage, dark leafy greens, apricots, winter squash and sweet potatoes. Natural food does play an important role in lowering blood pressure.

Tip no4. Garlic is yet another remedy Mother Nature offers, very benefic for lowering the blood pressure. In addition to its other good effects on health, studies state that garlic has the abilities to reduce phospholipids and cholesterol, increasing immunity of the organism and reducing chances of strokes.

A host of medical services that insurers must pay for in California — from cancer screenings to diabetes treatment to two-day hospital stays for delivering mothers — could be weakened or lost if the health care measures pending in Congress become law.

Currently, any health insurer selling policies in California must comply with the state’s extensive consumer protections. The reform measures would allow insurance firms to sell policies across state lines if certain conditions were met, bypassing California’s rules in favor of the requirements in the state where the policy is issued.

The result, critics warn, would be a “race to the bottom,” in which insurance companies set up shop in states with the weakest consumer rights and skirt California’s lengthy list of mandated health care services.

“This has the potential to wipe out all of these hard-fought protections,” said Rep. Jackie Speier, D-San Mateo, who led the drive for several of those mandates as a state legislator earlier in her career and is now threatening to vote against a health care overhaul that weakens California’s standards.

Speier and 28 other Democratic House members from California outlined their concerns about interstate health insurance sales in a letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-San Francisco, and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., last week.

“Practically speaking, insurers will domicile their plans in states with less stringent regulations and market to the population in more protective states like ours, just like nationally chartered banks have done,” stated the letter, which was signed by several other Bay Area Democrats. “California residents will lose out if state protections are undermined.”

California could take steps to preserve the state’s protections, but that could be tricky given the power of the insurance lobby.

Selling insurance across state lines has long been touted by Republicans and insurance firms as a way to spur competition and reduce premiums. More interstate sales, they say, would mean more choices for consumers.

“One of the challenges and barriers to competition is all the varying and conflicting state mandates that exist across the country,” said Robert Zirkelbach, a spokesman for the industry trade group America’s Health Insurance Plans, arguing that the patchwork of rules contributes to higher premiums.

The health care reform legislation would create a few avenues for interstate insurance sales. Under one scenario envisioned by the Senate bill, insurers could sell so-called “multistate” policies with benefits meeting minimum standards that would be defined by federal regulators after health care legislation passes.

If California wanted to mandate benefits that exceed federal standards — including those now in place — it would have to add them back through new legislation passed in Sacramento. Moreover, California would have to pay the extra costs of any additional benefits it mandated — either by compensating individuals enrolled in the plans or by paying insurance companies directly.

That could lead to a situation, critics say, in which many of the state’s current consumer protections are stripped away. To get them back, “We would have to go back and fight these battles again, one by one” in the state Legislature, said Jerry Flanagan, a health care advocate for Santa Monica-based Consumer Watchdog.

Under another scenario, states could enter into compacts in which insurance companies would be subject to the regulations of the state where they issue policies instead of the customer’s home state. For that to happen, California leaders would have to voluntarily enter into agreements with other states, knowing that California’s own health care protections could be ignored.

Although that might seem far-fetched, it’s not inconceivable, Speier argues, given the insurance industry’s political influence in Sacramento.

Allowing health insurance to be sold across state lines could affect California’s top insurers in different ways. Those owned by large national companies, such as Anthem Blue Cross and UnitedHealth Group, would likely benefit from the ability to sell streamlined policies to customers in many states, while potentially avoiding California’s strict rules.

But the change could mean more competition for insurers concentrated in California, such as Kaiser Permanente.

UnitedHealth declined to comment, while representatives for Blue Cross and Kaiser Permanente did not respond to requests for comment. The list of mandated benefits in California numbers in the dozens, ranging from asthma care for children to post-mastectomy reconstructive surgery. Aside from such benefits, state laws give consumers other protections designed to boost their leverage with insurance companies. For example, if a medical procedure is denied or delayed by an insurer, patients can seek an independent third-party medical review.

According to Speier, more than half of the 7,000 denials or delays of care reviewed through that appeals process since 2000 have been reversed.

“There really is a lot at stake,” she said.

A vote in the Senate on health care reform is scheduled Thursday morning.

In another potential detriment to California, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger on Tuesday said that the health reform measures would saddle the state with an additional $3 billion to $4 billion in annual Medicaid costs to provide insurance to low-income residents. In a letter to Pelosi and other California congressional members, he warned that the health care measures would impose a “crushing new burden” on the state and urged the lawmakers to amend the legislation before final votes in Congress.

“As the partner responsible for implementing this program,” wrote Schwarzenegger, who has been generally supportive of the push for national health care reform, “I am telling you that our Medicaid program is already at the breaking point, and if federal health care reform is passed without addressing the underlying faults in the system, health care reform will fail

For generations the health benefits of garlic has been preached as a natural remedy to curb disorders such as high blood pressure – even bad breath! What are the health benefits of garlic and garlic supplements that we don’t hear about on a regular basis? Did you know that garlic can keep away mosquitoes and prevent acne?

Garlic has been known as a boost for the immune system as it has been a common key in prevention of the common cold and flu viruses present in the air throughout the winter and fall seasons. Many take garlic in preparations for these season changes and the germs in the air. Experts look to garlic as a broad spectrum antibiotic that can prevent bacteria from becoming a cold or flu. It boosts the immune system to disallow the onset of bacteria and viruses. Used as a preventative measure, garlic is effective in preventing cold and flu symptoms and onset.

Are you seeking clearer skin? Garlic could help everyone from teenagers to pregnant mothers suffering from fluctuating hormones that can cause acne symptoms and breakouts. The symptoms of acne can be decreased when garlic is ingested into the body. Garlic should not be applied directly to the skin, as it can cause redness and swelling. It should be ingested, as it can reap the benefits of clearer skin.

As a treatment for high blood pressure garlic is popular. Supplements taken daily can decrease bad cholesterol levels (HDL). In this case, garlic supplements are used to determine the effects of the supplements on the levels of cholesterol within the body. Garlic can be used to offset partial damages caused by eating foods that are bad – cholesterol wise.

Should you use fresh garlic as a remedy or stick to garlic supplements? Using garlic supplements comes without the bad breath that can be associated with garlic. Did you know that the stronger the odor and taste of the garlic clove, the more sulfur in it? The higher the level of sulfur within the clove, the better the effects that the garlic can have on the body. The benefits of raw garlic are thought to be higher than those of garlic supplements.

Garlic is important part of the nourishment in the body which could help to prevent cancer cells in the body. Research has shown that the use of raw garlic on a regular basis reduces the amount of free radical cells within the body. These cells have been linked with cancer and are undergoing research on a daily basis.

If you are looking for a way to decrease the attraction of mosquitoes than garlic is the answer. Allicin is the compound in garlic which can deter the natural attraction of our skin to those pesky mosquitoes. It has been speculated that the mosquitoes are overpowered by the scent of the garlic, which can escape from the pores and unable to bite.
Garlic is beneficial for our health and should be implemented into a diet for a healthy bodily system.

Sri lankan Government is meting all health needs of about 600 expectant mothers who had fled from the grip of the terrorists.. They were provided necessary treatment after being admitted to the Vavuniya Hospital. A group is still receiving treatment at this Hospital. Gynaecologist Dr. Meera Mohideen of the Vavuniya Hospital said all necessary treatment will be provided to these expectant mothers until and after deliveries. He said that the expectant mothers are treated well. They are also …

Many people think they have no need to worry about their health or that of their team or assume their health insurance will cover if necessary. However, staying healthy usually takes more than just common sense. Furthermore, life may not go as planned; how we handle illnesses when they occur before and after seeing doctors can mean life or death. There is NO health insurance that covers our medical bills, absenteeism, time, effort, opportunities and lives altogether. As a physician, I want first to share a story with you.

My mother and I were involved in a tragic auto-accident. Although she did not have any health issues prior, she could not breathe without a ventilator after five weeks of intensive care. The ICU physicians “concluded” that she would be ventilator dependent for the rest of her life; she refused to live on a machine. I had never doubted the ICU physicians — they were my physicians at that time as well. At that moment, I had to hold in my tears and do my own assessment. To my surprise, I found my mother did not breathe efficiently, so I taught her a new way of breathing and practiced with her. Within three days, my mother was taken off the ventilator successfully. Had I not questioned the ICU doctors, my mother would have chosen to die.

Later in her rehab, my family worked with nine other specialists, including acupuncture and herbs, and achieved what most rehabilitation experts cannot imagine — my mother now is not only able to cook, shop and enjoy her interests fairly independently, but also reminds me of my tax return!! Her entire care cost almost $300,000, not to mention the time and effort and her suffering. In the end, I am very lucky that I can still have a healthy and happy mother.

To stay healthy, we need basic overall medical knowledge, proper thinking and the ability to stay calm and enjoy life under any level of stress. In order to save other people from similar and other preventable suffering and losses, we have set up a 2-day Comprehensive Health Program, based on our dual medical training, clinical and teaching experiences.

The basic medical knowledge enables us to stay healthy and handle illnesses properly before and after we see doctors. Many common illnesses are preventable, for example, sexually transmitted diseases. In my mother’s case, the Para-medic did an excellent job in securing her injured neck. Otherwise, she could have died right at the accident scene. Some parents like to use toothpaste to ease the burned skin of their children. However, the toothpaste can make it much harder to clean the burned skin later in Emergency Room and increase the chance of severe infection.

Improper thinking in health can lead to severe consequences, directly or indirectly, before or after seeing doctors. Some people use food as “anti-depressants” or “de-stressors” and gain weight rapidly. Being overweight is a big health hazard, and can lead to and worsen many health problems, such as Diabetes and Hypertension. Some people give up treatment due to self-doubt; some people develop massive myocardial infarction because of the delay in coming to the hospital secondary to their denial.

My mother’s case is a good “after” example. One gentleman lay in bed, “totally paralyzed,” for one year due to a wrong diagnosis of one hospital until he met Dr. Milton Erickson — Dr. Erickson “made him so angry” that he walked out of the doctor’s office the same day! Humans tend to believe in “authorities figures” that can be our parents, school principles, judges, doctors, attorneys, etc, and turn off our own judgment. All of these are samples of internal restrictions. What makes it worse is that the improper thinking or internal restrictions can be so familiar to us that we are not aware of their existence!

As proven by Harvard studies, stress can cause an inability to think clearly or make the right decisions, decreased creativity as well as other cognitive, psychological and physical symptoms; over 50% of adults in the U.S. experience high daily stress. Stress can also worsen many chronic diseases, such as heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, depression and Fibromyalgia.

Knowing more and seeing the big picture, besides having a strong spirit, will strengthen our confidence and help us stay in better control. We do not have to wait until we or our loved ones get sick. Without entering a health career, we can learn to stay healthy and fit and avoid getting sick. We can learn to avoid making mistakes when handling emergency illnesses, reduce hospital stays and recover faster and better. We can learn to know ourselves more, utilize and evaluate different medical systems and knowledge, including herbs and acupunctures. We can learn to build our personal relaxation hierarchy (including deep breathing and meditation used in Harvard’s program), manage different levels of stress, proactively reduce and prevent stress, enjoy life better and more. To have the big health picture all at once, instead of piece by piece, will help us better solve individual problems as they arise.

Comprehensive self-care at different medical stages helps us and our businesses stay in charge of not only our health, but also the potential losses in time, money, effort, opportunities or even lives. Comprehensive self-care helps to maintain healthier and more efficient productivity at significantly reduced costs, so we can compete better in this increasingly challenging global market. There is NO insurance that can insure all of them for us. The best medicine is not only about making diagnoses and delivering treatments, but also staying well, preventing sickness and recovering swiftly. Everyone can make the health system more efficient and cost-effective.

Let’s start learning now to take charge of our health, control our future medical and subsequent costs in time, effort, opportunities and life. We can live better, compete better and protect our successes and future!

 

Music is a creative pattern of auditory communication incorporating instrumental or vocal pitch in an organized and relentless manner. How about in health? Based on the study held by Journal Heart, the researchers discovered that listening to music is healthy for your heart whether you are seeking arousal and serene or relaxation. Listening to fast and convoluted tempos of music like classical and techno will increase the degree of physiological arousal. Meanwhile, listening to slower music such as love song, raga, and etc. could create induced calmness and fall in heart-rate. These are the reasons why the researchers said that these two kinds of music are could be helpful to decrease the risk of heart disease and stroke aside for boost immunity, ease muscle tension, and more.

In music treatment this is the use of musical intervention, such as listening, making music, recital composing, or improvising with instruments in order to reach a person’s therapeutic goals. According to the data from the MD Anderson Cancer Center at the University of Texas; it occupies neurotransmitters that would otherwise be used to drive pain messages to the brain, thus decreasing your perception of pain. These are the reasons why it’s been one of the 8 natural options to relieve cancer-related pain.

Benefit for your brain

Another beneficial effect of music is that for your brain. Based on the study in year 2004 by the journal Heart & Lung even discovered proof. People who those listened to music while they workout, researchers said, it performed more than two times as well on a verbal fluency test than persons who listened to no music.

As said by the study’s lead author, Charles Emery, “… Listening to music may influence cognitive function through different pathways in the brain. The combination of music and exercise may stimulate and increase cognitive arousal while helping to organize cognitive output.”

The used of music therapy

The following are some of the used of Music therapy, the clinical and evidence-based use of music interventions to complete individualized goals within a therapeutic relationship, is a growing field. According to the American Music Therapy Association, music therapy can be used to help:

• Children, adolescents, adults and the elderly with mental health needs, developmental and learning disabilities.
• Alzheimer’s disease and other age-related conditions
• Substance abuse problems
• Brain injuries
• Physical disabilities
• Acute and chronic pain, including mothers in labor

As certified music therapists extend to burst up in psychiatric hospitals, rehabilitative facilities, medical hospitals, outpatient clinics, day care treatment centers and more all over the country, it is just clear how music therapy was a helpful tool for staying or becoming healthy.

 

Dental decay is the most common form of disease known to mankind. It is a known fact that any food that contains carbohydrates, when left in contact with teeth for a prolonged period of time, can cause cavities. The normal micro organisms present in the mouth produce acid through fermentation of the carbohydrate. Unfortunately, we see this happen often. As a practicing dentist, I routinely advise my patients to maintain a healthy diet to prevent such problems.

It is important to remember that altering the diet alone cannot guarantee good oral health. But diet does make a difference when it comes to oral health.

The Dos and Don’ts

Food that contains too much sugar, like candy, leads to acid formation. That, in turn, causes cavities. Repeated exposure to such food can be just as bad as prolonged exposure. Sticky food, chips and taffy, can stay stuck to the teeth and be equally bad. The need for brushing teeth after every meal cannot be emphasized enough. Have children brush their teeth right away after they have candy. Flossing on a daily basis provides extra protection for the hard-to-reach surfaces.

Frequent snacking between meals should be avoided. Diets that contain too much acid can cause damage to the tooth structure. Even healthy foods, like milk and orange juice, contain a lot of acid. Soda or any other carbonated drink can be caustic. Also, when combined with the water in the saliva, these carbonated drinks produce carbonic acid. Both forms can cause chemical erosion and a breach in the enamel layer of teeth.

How to Combat Acid

Don’t let any of the acidic food to stay in your mouth for long. Rinse out your mouth immediately. Drink plenty of water throughout the day to neutralize any acid that might be produced in the mouth. Remember, there is no significant difference between the harmful effects of regular soda and diet soda. The difference between the two is only in the amount of calories and not in the degree of damage to the teeth.

Hard food

If you chew a lot of hard foods, like pretzels or ice, you may develop symptoms consistent with teeth grinding. Chewing too hard may also crack the teeth.Fillings and other restorations can become loose because of the constant flexure of the tooth structure. Eat hard food in moderation.

Avoid Extreme Temperatures

Extremely hot or cold food should be avoided. Both metal and resin fillings expand and contract with extreme changes in temperature. As a result the teeth may crack and the fillings may leak.

Do not eat ice cream and then rinse out your mouth with hot water. Even water at room temperature might not be ideal in this situation. Use cold water to rinse out your mouth and allow the teeth to shift to the body temperature gradually. Sudden changes in the temperature produce minute fracture lines in the teeth. Similarly, do not rinse out your mouth with cold water after drinking a cup of hot tea or coffee. Use warm water to do so.

During Pregnancy

A mother’s intake of calcium is crucial to ensure strong bones and teeth in the fetus.

During Childhood

It is necessary to have adequate amounts of calcium in children’s diet. However, a parent’s responsibility does not end there. In terms of improving dental health, a comprehensive approach has to be taken. On top of ensuring good oral hygiene and adequate diet, children have to be encouraged to brush their teeth after every meal.

Changing the Outlook

I would like to mention that we should not be focused on dental health as an isolated entity. We should start thinking about how dietary habits can affect oral health and most importantly, overall health. Some behaviors that are bad for the body also negatively affect oral health. Drinking too much alcohol can lead to oral cancer and liver failure. Smoking can lead to periodontal disease, oral cancer and lung cancer. Eating too much junk food not only increases the risk of cavities, there is likelihood of obesity, diabetes and cardiac problems. Untreated eating disorders can lead to dental problems like chemical erosion of teeth. Skipping meals also result in increased acidity, and therefore, chemical erosion of teeth and Halitosis.

Women have a lot to worry about when they are pregnant. Unfortunately, studies show that they now have another worry: the likely link between low birth weight babies and gum disease. This problem is distressingly more prevalent than a lot of expecting mothers may even realize. For your health and the health of your unborn child, you need to familiarize yourself with gum disease, its risks, and how to prevent them.

In the United States alone, as many as ten percent of babies are born prematurely. Naturally, premature babies tend to have a lower success rate. It is more difficult for these babies to thrive and survive. Their development could be at risk as well. Out of all the infant deaths in this nation, almost sixty percent of them are due to the babies being premature with low birth weight.

Such high numbers of afflicted mothers and babies demanded research. Tons of studies are still being done. Some of the results already stumbled upon an astonishing, downright chilling fact. There is a surprisingly strong link between mothers who have gum disease during their pregnancy. The study done suggests that these mothers were an astounding 7 times more apt to give birth to babies with low weights at birth.

Thus, a little more than eighteen percent of all babies born prematurely can be attributed to maternal gum disease. If the results are correct, that means that gum diseases causes low birth weight more than smoking or drinking during pregnancy.

A primary reason for these disturbing findings is due to the fact that, in general, if a mother has an infection during her pregnancy, her baby is more at risk for being born prematurely. This all begs the question, how can expectant mothers stop this from happening?

This article is part of a series on Natural Health Therapies and Cancer. The material presented is meant to inform you of complementary cancer therapies that are available in the medical community. These therapies are to be used in cooperation with other cancer treatment methods. They are not meant to be done in place of your physician’s care. In the last article, we covered the basics of cancer – what it is, what causes it, what are its various types and stages. This article will focus on the aspect of Dietary Changes and Nutritional Supplements as a form of cancer therapy.

Aside from tobacco and smoking, there is no greater factor for triggering and promoting cancer than diet and nutrition. When used correctly, diet and nutrition are also the factors that have the highest ability to reverse cancer. According to the National Academy of Sciences, 40% of all cancer in men may be directly related to diet. The statistics are even worse for women; 60% of all cancers in women may be linked to nutritional factors.

As I’ve pointed out in other articles, what we eat is important to our health. Equally important is what we don’t eat. Our society has turned from a natural, raw food diet to a highly processed and refined diet. The average American meal consists of high-fat, high-protein, low-fiber foods in oversized portions. Our fast-paced society even calls some of them a ‘Value Meal.’ Where’s the value? The nationwide increase in cancer has been parallel to the decline in our eating habits.

Several areas of our society’s diet are excessive. In clinical studies, these excesses have been found to significantly increase cancer risks. The key sections of the American diet that contribute to cancer are:

· Excessive intake of animal protein (meat, cheese, dairy) – can increase the risk for cancer in the breast, colon, pancreas, kidney, prostate, and endometrium; certain preparation and cooking techniques (such as pickling, smoking, frying) add to the cancer risks; fatty meats contain higher levels of carcinogenic pesticides

· Intake of contaminated fish – mercury, nickel, oil, and PCBs found in many marketplace fish; 1/10 of a teaspoon of PCBs is enough to cause illness or cancer

· Excessive fat intake – can increase risk for cancer of the breast, colon, rectum, uterus, prostate, and kidney; partially hydrogenated vegetable oils are considered major problems along with insufficient intake of healthy Omega-3 fats

· Excessive intake of refined carbohydrates and table sugar – lowers immune system function; elevates insulin levels (which can promote breast cancer); tumors thrive in a high-glucose environment

· Excessive intake of iron – associated with red meat, fortified breads and pastas; cooking in iron pots and skillets can add to your iron exposure

· Excessive intake of alcohol – can increase risk for cancer in the breast, mouth, throat, pancreas, liver, head and neck; alcohol suppresses Natural Killer cells that help repel cancer

· Excessive intake of caffeine – cancer rates are higher for those who drink more than 3 cups of coffee a day; caffeine can cause DNA damage, adding to cancer risk

Although it looks like our diets doom us to destruction, there are steps we can take to reduce the cancer risk. Here are some ways to combat and prevent cancer through some simple changes in your diet –

· Eat more fruits and vegetables

· Drink green tea, fresh juices

· Eat nuts, seeds, legumes

· Avoid all red meats, dairy products, eggs and shellfish

· Avoid refined, sugary foods

· Avoid caffeine and alcohol

· Avoid all vegetable oils especially hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils

· Use olive, pumpkin seed, flaxseed, walnut, and sesame oils

· Avoid margarine, fried foods, creamy sauces and dressings

· Eat salmon, halibut, red snapper, and flounder for healthy Omega-3 fats

· Avoid cooking in iron or aluminum cookware

· Use stainless steel or glass cookware

· Avoid microwave use, particularly with plastic containers

· Eat organically-grown foods when possible

More advanced nutritional therapies include Vegan and Macrobiotic diets. These nutritional

regimens consist of raw, natural foods and specific food preparation techniques. These diets are used to help cleanse the digestive system, allowing the elimination of excessive toxins.

Nutritional supplements can play a major role in cancer prevention and cancer therapy. There are many different approaches being practiced successfully. For example, antioxidants, such as Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and Alpha-Lipoic-Acid combat the free radical damage associated with cancer. Sea vegetables such as kombu are linked to a lower breast cancer rate in Japanese women. Garlic appears to boost the Natural Killer cell function and block cancer cells in the bloodstream. Certain types of digestive enzymes can be used to break down the protective coating on certain cancer cells. Minerals such as selenium, magnesium, calcium, and zinc are also used in varying dosages for certain cancer therapies.

As you may know, my PhD research is on the connection between nutrition and health. I’m concentrating on the importance of 8 basic carbohydrates called glyconutrients that help the cells communicate properly. ‘Glyco’ means sugar and these 8 simple sugars are involved in every cell interaction. The relatively new scientific field of glycobiology is making amazing discoveries on the impact of these simple sugars on our health. The studies show that many of these glyconutritional sugars, such as fucose, inhibit growth and/or tumor cell metastasis in certain cancers. The inhibition of cancer growth by glyconutritional sugars, such as mannose, appears to be partially related to immune system activation of Natural Killer cells, the white blood cell that destroys cancer cells. Research also demonstrates that glyconutritional sugars appear to inhibit tumor cell metastasis by preventing the attachment of tumor cells to normal cells. They do this by competing for glyconutritional sugar binding sites on the cell surfaces.

I personally know individuals that have had outstanding results against cancer with the use of these nutrients. Various glyconutrients are traditionally found in mother’s breast milk, pectin from apples and oranges, specific types of mushrooms, and limu. However, most of these glyconutrients are not in our diets. Luckily, our bodies can manufacture many of these nutrients through a lengthy metabolic process. Unfortunately, the effects of stress, medications, and other environmental factors make this process difficult and prone to errors. For that reason as well as the nutrition lost from the over-processing of our foods, the only way to insure that you get all 8 glyconutrients is through nutritional supplements. For additional information on glyconutritional supplements, you may also refer to material posted at www.glycoscience.com or at www.glycoinformation.com. You can also research these nutrients on PubMed under glycobiology or by name of the sugar such as fucose, mannose, etc.

A couple of good books for Cancer and Nutrition that I recommend are:

“Education is the best provision for the journey to old age” – Aristotle

With the daily increases in health insurance, it makes sense to consider alternative approaches for maintaining our health. Men are especially negligent in keeping a healthy lifestyle.
The best defense against the health issues that men face such as prostrate health is detoxification and cellular rejuvenation. One of the best approaches for doing this is actually the mother of all the healing sciences. It provides far more effective assistance than the health benefits of acai and other so-called super juices. This ancient marvel is called Ayurveda.

t is only part of the examination findings that lead the ayurvedic doctor to a course of treatment. This survey introduces you to yourself. There are many surveys to complete in a lifetime because they are a convenient way of objectively knowing yourself.The eternal benefit is you are taught your ayurveda body type with this survey. This is the first step in the bell tones of ayurveda..

When the temperature goes up, the toxins already absorbed by the body clog the blood channels. This blocks the nutrients to get to the cells, thereby the immune systems become weak to resist allergens spread by flowers, carpets, dogs, cats, insects etc. Even some particular food or fruit can cause allergy for some people.
Ayurveda knows it is the toxins in the body and the weak nervous system that causes allergies. Ayurveda teaches how one can avoid toxins or how to get rid of these toxins and strengthen the total nervous systems. Read further how Ayurveda manages Allergies.

Many conventional Docotrs now study Ayurveda and recommend Ayurveda treatment to their patients. When two or more types of medications are used, there is the potential for them to interact with each other. As a result, the effectiveness of at least one may increase or decrease in the body.. It is always better to inform your Ayurveda doctor about conventional medicine you use.

Broadly speaking, the annals of Ayurveda fall into three clear stages down the ages. They are the golden ancient stage, the desecration period and the post-independence rejuvenation age.

The ancient stage was the golden age of Ayurveda. This stage extended over years encompassing the age of the independent kingdoms when Ayurveda was the sole dependant means to effectively diagnose and treat illnesses of plants and also animals. There were royal and public patronages. Ayurveda flourished. Ayurveda treatises were composed. Study of Ayurveda occupied a pride of place. Brilliant students pursued Ayurveda with zeal and vigour.

Skin is a sense organ. The senses of touch, pain, temperature, pressure are felt by it. The seven layers of skin get their nutrition from Muscle tissue. Skin mirrors the qualities of the blood and body’s plasma tissue of a person. Hence it is said ‘glowing’ skin is the result of good quality blood and and plasma. No external skin care treatment and facial massage or application of make-up through dexterity of a skilled beautician can hide the shallow look if the skin is unhealthy. A healthy skin need no makeup.
