ប៊ីចេង - Food enhancer

2008-07-01T21:32:00.000-07:00

តើអ្នកទាំងអស់គ្នាប្រើប៊ីចេងសម្រាប់បង្កើនរសជាតិរបស់ម្ហូបរបស់អ្នកដែរឬទេ?

ខ្ញុំបានលឺមនុស្សជាច្រើននិយាយអំពីវា។ មានអ្នកខ្លះនិយាយថា មិនគួរបរិភោគវាទេព្រោះវាធ្វើឲ្យពុកខូចឆ្អឺង។ អ្នកខ្លះទៀតនិយាយថា វាផលិតមកពីឆ្អឺងខ្មោច ឬមកពីឆ្អឺងសត្វផ្សេងៗ ។ល។ តើធាតុពិតវាយ៉ាងណាទៅវិញ?

ធាតុពិតរបស់ប៊ីចេងគឹវាយ៉ាងនេះ៖ ប៊ីចេងវាមានសារធាតុផ្សំសំខាន់នោះគឹ Monosodium Glutamate។ វាជាប្រភេទដែលបានមកអាស៊ីតអាមីន Glutamic Acid ដែលជាប្រភេទអាស៊ីតផលិតឡើងដោយវិធីអ៊ីដ្រាតកម្មប្រូតេអីនម្សៅរបស់ស្រូវសាលី (gluten)។ ប៉ុន្តែបច្ចុប្បន្ននេះគេច្រើនតែផលិតវាដោយវិធីឡើងមេពពួកមិក្រូសារពាង្គកាយដូចជា៖ Corynebacterium glutamicum, Brevibacterium flavum, B.divaricatum។ ប៉ុន្តែក៏មានក្រុមហ៊ុនមួយចំនួនក៏បានផលិតប៊ីចេងពី ទឺកកាកសំណល់ដែលសល់ពីរោងចក្រផលិតក្រដាស់។

ការផលិតប៊ីចេងក៏មិនមានអ្វីពិបាកនោះទេគឺគ្រាន់តែ យក Glutamic acid ហើយបន្ទាប់មកអោយវាមានប្រតិកម្មជាមួយនិង Sodium carbonat ឬ Sodium hydroxide នៅ pH = 6,8 - 7,0។ បន្ទាប់មកយកវាទៅ ធ្វើប្រតិកម្មដើម្បីឲ្យអស់ធាតុដែក (Fe) និងធ្វើការសំអាត់ពណ៌, បន្ទាប់មកយកវាទៅសម្ងួតក្នុងឆ្នាំងសុញ្ញាកាស ហើយត្រូវថែមបន្តិចមេប៊ីចេងដើម្បីឲ្យវាឡើងមេ។ ចុងក្រោយគឺគ្រាន់តែយវាទៅសម្ងួតដល់ស្ងួតជាការស្រេច។

ចំពោះការដែលថាវាមានឥទ្ធិពលមិនល្អដល់សុខភាពរបស់អ្នកប្រើប្រាស់នោះ បើតាមការពិតមកទល់និងពេលនេះគឺមិនទាន់មានអំណះអំណាងណាមួយដែលអាច់បញ្ជាស់ឲ្យច្បាស់លាស់នោះទេ។ ប៉ុន្តែនៅប៉ុន្មានឆ្នាំមុននេះក៏មានការប្រកាសឲ្យដឺងអំពីករណី Chinese restaurant syndrome (មិនដឺងថាប្រែយ៉ាងមិចឲ្យត្រូវ)។ មានមនុស្សមួយចំនួនមានអាការៈនេះក្រោយពីបានបរិភោគអាហារនៅក្នុងភោជនីយដ្ឋានរបស់ចិនមួយកន្លែង។ ប៉ុន្តែគេនៅតែមិនអាចធ្វើ់ការបកស្រាយបានថា តើវាបណ្ដាលមកពីប៊ីចេងមែនឬយ៉ាងណា។

គួរចាំថា ប៊ីចេងវាមានធាតុផ្សំមកពី Glutamic acid ដែលជាសារធាតុមួយក្នុងចំណោមសារធាតុដែលមានក្នុង ណឺរ៉ូន របស់ខួរក្បាលរបស់យើង។

ហេតុនេះប៊ីចេងនៅតែជាគ្រឿងផ្សំដ៏សំខាន់ក្នុងរូបមន្តធ្វើម្ហូបរបស់ជនជាតិអាស៊ីក៏ដូចជាជនជាតិដទៃទៀតលើសកលលោក៕

Diabetes Could Be Delayed or Prevented

2008-05-24T16:09:00.000-07:00

Everyone know about Diabetes right? It's one of the most widespread diseases of the moment. Type two of the diabetes usually see at adult people who drink and eat alot. It's usually see in the most case of diabetes.
A recent such study took place in China and showed that a sensible diet and regular exercise reduced the incidence of diabetes by an impressive 43% over 20 years in the 577 adults who participated in the research. "This study has shown that group-based interventions targeting lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise produce a durable and long-lasting reduction in incidence of type 2 diabetes".
So, what we have to do to avoid or delay the onset of this disease?
According to the Chinese and Japanese researchers who contributed to the study, the key words are "improved diet" and "better exercise". Drinking less alcohol and eating more fresh fruit and vegetables is a first step,and it's essential to turn these healthy diet habits into an everyday routine. The struggle against diabetes is a long-term process, so eating fresh vegetables for a month every year won't do the trick. Exercise is also a key factor, but it has to be done regularly for the rest of our lives. "The challenge is to translate research findings into substantial clinical improvements for patients", the researchers wrote in their published work. It may not be a certified cure, but it's a very promising beginning.

Cambodia Ramping Up Hydro

2008-05-20T04:26:00.001-07:00

Cambodia is speeding ahead with plans to expand its hydropower sector – spurred on by a voracious demand for electricity, yet seemingly impervious to environmental and agricultural concerns.

Renewed Chinese investment is bankrolling the plan, which has long been stalled due to war, political uncertainty, and the Asian economic crisis more than ten years ago. However, now the time is right, and Cambodia’s Foreign Minister Hor Namhong recently declared that his government plans to turn the country into the “battery of Southeast Asia” – ambitious words indeed for a country that struggles to adequately power even itself.

Cambodia’s power consumption is among the lowest anywhere, and its annual consumption of about 125 million kilowatt-hours is easily the lowest in Southeast Asia – in fact, less than one-sixth of Fiji’s. And that lack of electricity is reflected in Cambodia’s gross domestic product, which ranks 155th in the world, making it one of the world’s poorest countries. However, its economy is picking up and recent growth has been more than 10 percent annually. Now this country – with its rugged beauty and brutal history, smaller than the state of Oklahoma – desperately needs the energy sources to power this continued growth.

Cambodia’s outdated, predominantly diesel-fueled power plants only meet 75 percent of the country’s demand. That has resulted in frequent blackouts, with power costs more than double those of neighboring Thailand and Vietnam.

Just 20 percent of Cambodia’s 14 million citizens have access to cheap and reliable electricity, and demand is growing at about 20 percent a year. To address that demand, the Cambodian government has agreed to construct at least four Chinese-funded hydropower projects as part of a $3 billion scheme to boost power output.

I lost "everything"

2008-05-11T03:16:00.001-07:00

This Sunday, it's must be my terrible holiday. This Sunday evening, the day that I lost everything on my computer. I lost my favorite music, pictures of my friends and everything more.

This recent days, my stupid PC did not working well. Every time when I turn it on, there is a sound beep came from my computer's mother board and it became slower. So, I borrowed my friend's boot CD to check it out. Unfortunately, PQ Magic detected that my HDD had some problems and it demanded me to fix it by click "OK". When it done, it demanded me to restart my computer again. I did what it tell me. So, when I log into my computer again, WOW!, I lost my entire drive "D". What happen??

So, the best way to fix this out, I have to reformat the whole hard drive again and then I lost everything.

Anyway, I wrote some of them into DVDs. But all my favorite music and pictures was gone :(

Gastric Ulcer (Stomach ulcer)

2008-04-09T10:32:00.000-07:00

Causes: Non-cancerous (benign) gastric ulcers are caused by an imbalance between stomach acid, an enzyme called pepsin, and the natural defenses of the stomach's lining.This imbalance leads to inflammation, which can be made worse by aspirin and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen.

Risk factors for benign gastric ulcers include:

Use of aspirin and NSAIDs
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection
Chronic gastritis
Smoking
Increasing age
Mechanical ventilation
Certain blood clotting problems

Symptoms:

Abdominal pain:

May wake you at night
May be relieved by antacids or milk.
May occur 2 or 3 hours after meal
May be worse if your don't eat

Nausea
Abdominal indigestion
Vomiting (vomiting blood)
Blood in stools or blacks
Unintentional weight loss
Fatigue

Treatments:

If causes by Helicobacter pylori infection

Antibiotics
H2 receptor antagonist (Omeprazol)

If the ulcer bleeds, endoscopy can control bleeding in most cases.
Surgery may be recommended for persons who do not respond to medicines or endoscopy
Self-help measures include eating several small meals a day at regular time periods and avoiding the following:

Smoking
Tea, coffee and soft drinks containing caffeine
Alcohol
Aspirin and NSAIDs

Surgical procedures for gastric ulcers include:

Vagotomy : cuts the vagus nerve (which control the stomach's production of gastric acid)
Partial gastrectomy : removes part of stomach.

Tobacco is worse than alcohol or drugs

2008-04-08T17:01:00.001-07:00

The adverse health and social effects of tobacco account for more than half of all drug costs to the community, a report due to be released on Wednesday reveals.

Tobacco, alcohol and illicit drugs are responsible for $56 billion a year worth of ill health, accidents, premature death, crime and lost productivity.

The figure outstrips the annual $45 billion health budget, Fairfax has reported.

Federal Health Minister Nicola Roxon is expected to cite the costs detailed in the government-commissioned report to try to counter unhealthy habits that trigger chronic disease.

On its own, tobacco accounts for more than half the costs, $31.5 billion, while alcohol comes with a bill of $15.3 billion annually and illicit drugs lead to $8.2 billion in social and health costs.

Ms Roxon said she did not expect to change people's habits soon."This won't be simple and it won't be quick," she told Fairfax."Cultural shifts are complex and difficult to achieve."

Eat Eggs For Healthy Boobs

2008-04-05T11:16:00.000-07:00

You may associate eating too many eggs with health issues. But a new research to be published in The FASEB Journal shows the contrary. The dietary consumption of choline, an amine included in the group of vitamins B and considered an essential nutrient, abundant in eggs, has been found to decrease the risk of breast cancer with 24%.

A 2003 Harvard research showed that women who ate one egg daily during adolescence had a 18% decreased risk of developing breast cancer when adults. A 2005 Chinese study found out that women reporting the consumption of at least six eggs weekly had a 44% lower risk of developing breast cancer, compared with those who ate two or less eggs weekly.

The new research was made on more than 3,000 adult women. Those considered to have the highest choline intake consumed at least 455 mg of this amine daily, mainly from coffee, eggs and skim milk. A daily amount of less than 196 mg was considered low choline intake.
"Choline is needed for the normal functioning of cells, no matter your age or gender. Increasing evidence shows that it may be particularly important for women, particularly those of child-bearing age," said co-author Dr. Steven H. Zeisel of University of North Carolina.

Adequate daily choline intake is considered 550 mg for men and breastfeeding women, 425 mg for women, and 450 mg for pregnant women. Only 10% of the Americans achieve this.
One egg yolk (only this part contains choline) deliver 125.5 mg of choline, thus four eggs would make the daily dose. Choline is to be found in abundant quantities in liver, wheat germ and cauliflower.
Choline is essential in the functioning of the brain cells (it is involved in memory and learning abilities), liver cells and nutrient transport throughout the body. Choline deficits are believed to increase by 4 times the risk of spina bifida in newborns, even when supplements of folate have been taken. Like folate, choline degrades homocysteine, a blood amino acid connected to an increased risk of heart disease. This explains why egg consumption does not increase the risk of heart disease.

Back Pain - Low

2008-04-01T20:45:00.001-07:00

Pain felt in your lower back may come from the spine, muscles, nerves, or other structures in that region. It may also radiate from other areas like your mid or upper back, a hernia in the groin, or a problem in the testicles or ovaries.

Common Causes:

The specific structure in your back responsible for your pain is hardly ever identified. Whether identified or not, there are several possible sources of low back pain:

Small fractures to the spine from osteoporosis.
Muscle spasm.
Ruptured or herniated disk.
Degeneration of the disks.
Poor alignment of the vertebrae.
Spinal stenosis.
Strain or tears to the muscles or ligaments supporting the back.
Spine curvatures.
Other medical conditions like fibromyalgia.

You are at particular risk for low back pain if you:

Work in construction or another job requiring heavy lifting, lots of bending and twisting, or whole body vibration
Have bad posture
Are pregnant
Are over age 30
Smoke, don't exercise, or are overweight
Have arthritis or osteoporosis
Have a low pain threshold
Feel stressed or depressed

Back pain from organs in the pelvis or elsewhere include:

Bladder infection
Kidney stone
Endometriosis
Ovarian cancer
Ovarian cysts
Testicular torsion

2. Home Care:

Many people will feel better within one week after the start of back pain. After another 4-6 weeks, the back pain will likely be completely gone. A common misconception about back pain is that you need to rest and avoid activity for a long time. In fact, bed rest is NOT recommended. If you have no indication of a serious underlying cause for you back pain, you should reduce physical activity only for the first couple of days.

Some tips for how to handle pain early on:

Stop normal activity of the first few days.
Apply heat or ice to the painful area. Try ice for the first 42 to 72 hours then use the heat after that.
Take over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB) or acetaminophen (Tylenol).
While sleeping, try lying in a curled-up, fetal position with a pillow between your legs. If you usually sleep on your back, place a pillow or rolled towel under your knees to relieve pressure.

AVOID the following exercises during initial recovery:

Jogging
Football
Golf
Ballet
Weight lifting
