Preventing Cancer by Grape Seeds

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Tue, 25 Jan 2011 13:28:00 +0000

Preventing Cancer by Grape Seeds - So far, people familiar with wine as a delicious and healthful fruit. Did you know, eating grapes while its seeds are much more nutritious because the content of antioxidants that can reduce risk of skin cancer?

Some people would think twice if asked to eat grapes with seeds at once. It might seem strange because during the person intentionally discard seeds. In fact, while being engrossed in enjoying, would feel uncomfortable if there are seeds that get caught. No wonder, people are looking for fruit wine with little or no seed.

From now on, throw it reluctantly. The reason, various studies reveal, in addition to antioxidant-rich, the wine was developed as potential anticancer natural remedies, especially reducing skin cell abnormalities due to exposure to sunlight. That is, such as skin and flesh, the seeds were abundant grape efficacious compounds.

That's the conclusion of researchers from the University of Alabama, United States, against mice. In his research, a group of mice without hair is exposed to ultraviolet light (UV). Some were given additional food (extract) contain chemicals derived from the seeds of grapes (grape seed proanthocyanidins/GSPs), whereas other rats given regular diet without supplements.

Based on the observations and results of laboratory tests, mice given the extract additional GSPs enough to react positively and effectively inhibit the harmful effects of UV, which can trigger carcinogenic (cancer originator.) Tumors in the body of the mice were 78 percent smaller than those not given the grape seed extract.

Press the formation of estrogen

In a presentation delivered Dr. Santosh K Katiyar in an annual conference of the American Chemical Society, mentioned that GSPs have antioxidant active. As is known, UV light can inhibit the immune system and these problems can be avoided thanks to GSPs.

He recommends regular consumption of GSPs extract as a daily supplement to enhance immune from attack of free radicals as well as reduce risks and avoid the dangers of skin cancer.

Meanwhile, researchers Shiuan Chen PhD from the Beckman Research Institute of the City of Hope explained that the grape juice (with seeds) effectively suppress the growth of cancer cells by preventing the synthesis of the hormone estrogen plays a major role in the development of breast cancer.

Through lab tests, fruit juices and grape seed proved able to stop the production of the hormone estrogen in cells. Recent research using mice that planted tumor cells showed a tumor the size of mice given 0.5 ml of grape juice for five weeks only a third of which are not given the grape juice. Research last year showed that extracts of red wine (not white wine) contains compounds similar to those in grape juice and can suppress the formation of estrogen.

Choose a dark color

In the country I have found no formal studies, perhaps because our country is not a big wine producer and consumer. However, empirically, recognized the benefits of grape seed and fruit for health.

It was as disclosed Pudji Rahayu, developer of medicinal plants in Depok, West Java. It has long been his use of grape seed as a mixture of juice for immune-enhancing herbs.

"Do not a lot, just five to ten grains grapes when used as a mixture of fruits or other herbs. We suggest choosing a dark colored, like purple and blue, because more seeds. This method allows for the ability to chew it began to decrease, especially the elderly, "she said.

Even so, it should be noted that the consumption of wine with the skins of fruits and seeds can create irritation in patients with gastric disorders. Therefore, if your digestion, including sensitive, you should not eat when the stomach is empty. Train your digestion by eating them in limited quantities while watching the reaction.

So, from now of course there's no reason to refuse to eat grapes with skins and seeds because they are more useful and efficacious.

Health experts dr. Handrawan Nadesul said that culture shaped the behavior of healthy living since childhood. Health education starts from how healthy habit is formed. ne of the culture of healthy lifestyle behaviors is an important early inculcated from childhood is washing hands with soap (CTPS).

Currently, diarrhea has become the second highest cause of death in children after respiratory illnesses or pnuemonia. In one of the most important effort to prevent diarrhea is CTPS action. Based on research studies by Curtis V. Cairncross, wash hands with soap can reduce the risk of diarrhea by 47%.

Oral Sex Causes Head Cancer and Neck?

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Sun, 23 Jan 2011 11:37:00 +0000

Oral Sex Causes Head Cancer - The main drivers of cancer is human papilloma virus (HPV). The virus can be transmitted through certain types of sexual activity.

"There seems to be pretty good relationship with the increasing number of sexual activity, especially oral sex, is associated with increased HPV infection," said Dr. Greg Hartig, professor of ENT and head and neck surgeon at the Faculty of Medicine and Public Health University of Wisconsin, in Madison.

While Dr. William Lydiatt, professor and chief of head and neck surgery at the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha, said that the overall incidence of head and neck cancer will come down, mainly because fewer people smoking. Tobacco and alcohol are the major traditional risk factors.

But the incidence of tonsil and base of tongue cancer has increased over the last decade, he said. And they are the ones who are more likely tested positive for HPV.

"Until now, 60-70% of all cases of thyroid cancer in the U.S., associated with HPV," said Lydiatt.

Although the relationship between HPV and these cancers can not be denied, but the relation with oral sex is still a speculation among experts.

A study in the New England Journal of Medicine (2007) found that young people head and neck cancer are positive for oral HPV infection, more likely to have multiple sex partners vaginal and oral sex in their lives.

In the study revealed that a person who has six or more oral sex partners during lifetime associated with a 3.4 times higher risk of oropharyngeal cancer - base of tongue cancer, throat or back of the tonsil.

The researchers also reported that the tonsils and base of the tongue cancer has increased every year since 1973. And all the researchers wrote that the widespread practice of oral sex among teenagers may be a contributing factor in the increasing case.

The researchers conclude that in their study, oral sex is 'strongly associated' with oropharyngeal cancer. But they noted that can not 'rule out transmission through direct mouth' as the French habit of kissing.

In 90% cases of HPV infection in the body, the immune system naturally clear HPV within two years. However, in some cases, several types of HPV can cause cervical cancer or oropharyngeal cancer.

"HPV tends to be in specific locations," explained Dr Amesh A. Adalja, additional instructors in the spread of infectious diseases at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.

In other words, HPV tend to stay anywhere else when you first enter the human body, both in the vagina (which in some cases can cause cervical cancer), or the mouth and throat.

So is increasing the incidence of this means that a new generation of more sex than their grandparents.

"Baby Boomers - generation of the 1970s and early 1960s - may have more freedom in sexual relations in general, including oral sex," added Dr. Bert W. O'Malley, Jr., chairman of Otorhinolaryngology - head and neck surgery at the University of Pennsylvania.

U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported that in 2002, about 90% of men and 88% of women aged 25-44 years reported having oral sex with opposite sex couples.

This figure is comparable with the data in 1992 showing that about three-quarters of men aged 20-39 and approaching 70% of women aged 18-59, never giving and receiving oral sex.

10 TIPS HEALTHY WITHOUT DRUGS

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Thu, 20 Jan 2011 18:34:00 +0000

10 TIPS HEALTHY WITHOUT DRUGS - Multicomplex life today so I can be knocked-down "disease" strange that difficult to overcome, either by itself or immune drugs. How tricks to keep us healthy without frequent treatment.

It is no secret that our bodies have immune systems that can protect the body from disease attack. That is if the system works! Sometimes like to crash. If it were so, so what can make! We are forced to seek treatment. However, it would also not hurt, trying various tricks to prevent disease to live without depending on drugs. Everywhere, which can be used to it: to prevent before it happens is better than cure that was already rife.

Here are 10 tips that can help you:

1. Know yourself, whether physical or psychological

This is somewhat philosophical, indeed, but in fact it is precisely here lies the key to everything. By knowing ourselves, we can know the physical weakness of our bodies, and then can decide what is good and don'ts for the body, and what is not. The person who has unwittingly eat foods that are salty delicacy unnecessarily, for example, over time felt his body change, as quickly felt dizzy, his balance is reduced, and often feel various symptoms of not feeling well.

After a doctor examined the body, known to his body began to develop a new "disease" of high blood pressure. If it ever since he tried earnestly to reduce salty foods and fatty foods, while doing moderate exercise regularly, then the "disease" it is not easy to recurrence, and he does not need frequent trips to the doctor again.

2. Not in a hurry to feel pain

Just because a sneeze, cough, or a slight fever, people have decided to take medicine. Though often after left three days, the symptoms of the disease go away. The body does have the ability to heal itself. Only with enough rest, pain symptoms were gone themselves. Dizziness symptoms can sometimes disappear simply by inhaling the fresh air in the park that are not contaminated exhaust air.

3. Eat a varied

Doing variation meal, start from the assumption that there are certain foods that are more useful than ordinary foods daily. If we use this as a distraction to the kind of daily food, then the two groups of materials that can complement each other.

4. Adjusting consumption by age level

The amount of nutrients the body needs varies depending on age, type of activity, and body condition (in sickness or health). In children and adolescents who are aggressive, grow jealous, the five elements in food (carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins and minerals, and water) is necessary, so it does not need to be restricted. Conversely, in adults and elderly, the restriction is absolutely necessary. Carbohydrate and fat as energy producers should be reduced in number, given their physical activity has decreased.

How to reduce carbohydrates and fat is to reduce the portion of rice and fried. In contrast, vitamins and minerals and should be eaten with just water enough. These substances are very necessary to facilitate the body's metabolism, and increase durability. Just keep in mind that the best is to use natural vitamins, such as that contained in fruits and vegetables fresh.

5. Exercise regularly according to ability

6. Always keep cleaning

Clean environment at home, page, and residential complexes to give fresh and comfortable atmosphere.

7. Taking the time to relax

Spending time ask for a break does not mean much more than working productively until beyond propriety. No! Taking the time to break it up a little while, and this is necessary, to set the kendo for a while in between the tension at rush hour to work everyday. This should be done routinely.

8. Back to nature

Trends in the early 1990s in Western countries is based on experience that lifestyle in modern times to encourage people to change their eating habits, such as more frequent eating canned food, bottled chili sauce, or fruit preserved. To return close to nature, we instead have to come into martial arts warriors, but at least avoid canned food, and even multiply eat fresh vegetables and fruit.

9. Treat respiratory

Treat respiratory means regulate the manner and frequency of breathing to be more efficient. By inhaling air (oxygen) slowly in a matter of 15 then slowly release it also in a matter of 15, we can keep the oxygen in the body longer than usual. Oxygen will be used by the body's organs in an effective, albeit only slightly.

10. Fond of reading health

The phrase "Do not know it was love, not love then no love" is very fitting to satirize people who want a healthy body, but did not bother reading about health approach.

Until now there is no scientific evidence that supports the penis enlargement ways, either as pills, creams, injections, or surgery. Indeed, most men expect the size of "combat tool" they can be changed despite the fact that their partner has never complained about the size of its short length.

Dr. Hernando Chaves, an expert in clinical sexology from Beverly Hills, California, said that penis size is not the answer to a woman's sexual satisfaction. "It is important to raise the size of the penis, which must be satisfactory to learn techniques and stimulation points of the body of the couple. Besides course also enhance emotional closeness and communication techniques," he explained.

He said the man who is always worried about the size of its combat equipment would be more likely to experience erectile barriers. "Love yourself, bear in yourself that you are sexy and exciting. Be positive and always confident," he said.

First Week Pregnancy

First Week Pregnancy - Here is a description of the development process as well as a pregnancy that your baby's growth every week. Please remember that every pregnancy is different and growth rate varied, so you can talk to your doctor.

Actually a bit strange too, if we count the weeks of gestation from last menstrual period. But because most women almost can not be sure exactly when they started to contain (and that's fair), so it's better doctors calculate from your last menstrual period even though you are not pregnant at least until 2 weeks later. For example, if your physician says that you are pregnant 12 weeks (based on your last menstrual period), then you begin to contain 10 weeks ago.

This is a very early weeks, if you are planning a pregnancy, you should start by thinking that you are pregnant. This means eating healthy foods, take vitamins for pregnancy that contain folic acid quit drinking and drugs, smoking, alcohol and other unhealthy foods.

Understanding about Ovulation

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Tue, 18 Jan 2011 02:05:00 +0000

Understanding about Ovulation - When ovulation is one of the most important thing for a woman to understand about her body, because it is a determining factor in getting pregnant or prevent pregnancy. The process can be a bit confusing, hopefully the text below can help you to understand.

Ovulation occurs when a mature egg is released from the ovaries, down into the fallopian tubes, and ready to be fertilized. Lining of the uterus has thickened to prepare for a fertilized egg. If no fertilization occurs, uterine lining and blood will be whole. Decay that has not been fertilized egg and uterine lining is called menstruation.

Ovulation facts about what you need to know:

• An egg lives 12-24 hours after leaving the ovary
• Usually only one egg is released each time of ovulation
• Ovulation can be affected by stress, illness or disruption of daily routines.
• Some women may experience some light blood spotting during ovulation
• Implantation/attachment of a fertilized egg usually occurs 6-12 days after ovulation
• Every woman is born with millions of eggs that mature to wait for the start of ovulation
• A menstrual period can occur even if ovulation does not occur
• Ovulation can occur even if menstruation does not occur
• Some women may feel a little pain or pain near the ovaries during ovulation called 'mittelschmerz', in German meaning "middle pain"
• If the egg is not fertilized, it split and absorbed into the lining of the uterus

Knowing When Ovulation:
A woman's monthly cycle is measured from the first day of her menstrual period until the first day of the next period. The average woman's monthly cycle normally is between 28-32 days, but some women may have shorter cycles or much longer.

Ovulation can be calculated from the first day of last menstrual period (HPHT) or by calculating 12-16 days from the next expected period. Most women ovulate anytime between day ke11 - 21 st day of their cycle, counting from the first day of last menstruation. This is what many people refer to as "fertile period"of the woman's cycle, because sexual intercourse during this period increases the possibility of pregnancy. Ovulation can occur at various times during the cycle, and may occur on different days each month.

Ovulation Cycle divided into two parts:
The first part of the ovulation cycle is called the follicular phase. This phase begins the first day of last menstrual period (HPHT) and continues until ovulation. This first half of the cycle, this can be very different for every woman that lasted approximately 7 days to 40 days.

The second part of this cycle is called luteal phase and lasts from ovulation until the next period begins. Luteal phase have a better time and usually only 12-16 days from ovulation. This shows that the day of ovulation will determine how long your cycle. It also means that outside factors like stress, illness, and the usual routine disruption, may cause the occurrence of ovulation which then effect changes in your menstrual period to come.

So the notion that stress can affect the menstrual cycle is only partially true. Stress can affect ovulation which ultimately determines when your period will come, but stress around the expected time period (luteal phase) will not make your cycle too late, because it was determined when it would come 12-16 days earlier!

From Menstruation to Ovulation (the details you may not know!)
When your menstrual cycle begins, your estrogen levels low. Your hypothalamus (which is responsible for maintaining your hormone levels) sends out a message to the pituitary gland which then sends the hormone FSH (follicle stimulating hormone). This FSH triggers some of your follicles to develop into mature eggs. One of these will develop into the dominant follicle, which will release a mature egg and the other will be destroyed. Once the follicles mature they send out another hormone, estrogen. High levels of estrogen will tell the hypothalamus and pituitary gland that there is a mature egg.

Luteinizing hormone (LH) is then released, referred to as the LH surge. Surge of LH causes the egg burst through the ovary wall within 24-36 hours and begin its journey down the fallopian tube for fertilization. Egg follicle is released is called the corpus luteum, and it will release progesterone that helps thicken and prepare the uterine lining for implantation. The corpus luteum will produce progesterone for about 12-16 days (the luteal phase of the cycle you are.) If the egg is fertilized, corpus luteum will continue to produce progesterone for the developing pregnancy until placenta takes over. You can begin looking for pregnancy symptoms as early as one week after conception. If no fertilization egg dissolves after 24 hours.

At this time your hormone levels will decrease and your uterine lining will begin to shed about 12-16 days from ovulation. This is menstruation (menstrual cycle) and bring us back to day 1 of your cycle. The journey then begins again. ayahbunda.net

Children Eating Pattern Following Parental

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Mon, 17 Jan 2011 20:15:00 +0000

Children Eating Pattern - Many parents are giddy with her eating habits like picking out food (picky eating). However, you need to be careful if you think your child a picky eater, because your perspective can affect nutritional intake.

If a mother already branded her as a picky eater, usually the child will rarely eat fruit and vegetables. "Perceptions of parents that their children prefer picky food can make parents do not offer their children healthy food," said Mildred Horodynski, researchers from Michigan State University's College of Nuring.

One way to encourage children to eat healthier, according to Horodynski, is changing the eating behavior of parents. That is, if the father-mother used to eat healthy foods, children will usually follow.

"What children eat a diet reflects his mother, and unfortunately most women are also rarely eat vegetables or fruit," he said.

In order for children to love healthy foods, the mother or the father should not only serve, but also to eat together. "When you try something food, children will be interested to try it too," he said.

He suggested, if the child refused to taste the vegetables are served, parents should not immediately branded her vegetable hater. "Research shows that children need to try 15 times before going to eat a type of food," he explained.

The key for children like fruit and vegetables were introduced as early as possible, ie at 7-8 months of age when children begin to recognize solid food. "At age 24 months children already know what she likes. If the mother does not give vegetable, he would not like it," he explained.
