Cycling in The Highway Breathe More Pollutants

noreply@blogger.com (kemploners) — Sun, 9 Oct 2011 18:46:00 +0700

This was revealed after the researchers took saliva samples from 10 people in London consisting of 5 people 5 people cyclists and pedestrians. In general, no significant difference between the two groups on other factors, including age, distance from home to the highway, lung function, exercise duration even.

However, when tested, the cyclists had higher levels of carbon black up to three times higher than pedestrians.

Carbon black is produced from the combustion of gasoline and diesel fuel associated with decreased heart rate, heart disease, asthma, and other adverse effects.

"Exercise is healthful, but the sport is conducted in an area of low pollution levels is recommended," said Dr.Chin Nwokoro from the London School of Medicine, UK.

He added, more in-depth research will be conducted to determine whether people at high risk, such as patients who are recovering from a heart attack, may be cycling in urban areas.

Facing Cancer in Children

noreply@blogger.com (kemploners) — Sat, 8 Oct 2011 16:07:00 +0700

Facing Cancer in Children

Having a child with cancer is very sad, even for families who brave though. The best approach is to be honest with children about illness and always give support.

Cancer most often affects children is leukemia, lymphoma, retinoblastoma (eye cancer), and bone cancer is a type of cancer that generally attacks children.

The goal of cancer treatment the children not only cope with cancer but also helps the child can continue to behave normally in accordance with his age level. Even though your child is important to be supported and comforted, it is also important to maintain life as normal as possible.

That means the child continues to follow the schedule, rules, and family activities. This means parents are not being overprotective or overly protective of her.

"The key word is just one, give the fullest support possible. Do not ever shunned and ostracized. Fixed view of him as the children in general, without having to be protected, "Erwin said Fauzi, coordinator of volunteers Yellow Ribbon Kids Foundation Indonesia, who met in Dharmais Hospital on Wednesday (07/06/2011).

According to Erwin, protection will encourage excessive psychological and emotional condition of a child to become unstable. So rather than cure, but it will generate a cancer cell.

"If the mood is not comfortable it will encourage the cancer cells in the body become more active," he added.

Facing Cancer in Children

In addition to providing support and freedom, one thing is no less important is being honest about the child's illness. "Children who are not informed about the disease would imagine something totally untrue," he said.

For example, a child may be thinking that his cancer illness is a punishment for him due to a delinquency or a specific error.

"It was agreed with that by telling, would make the child become less stressed and feel guilty. Children are entitled to know about his illness. Regardless of age, "he explained.

Furthermore, Erwin said, children who know the real situation will be easier to be invited to cooperate especially in the treatment process that must be lived. Additionally, discuss cancer with children will bring the atmosphere of the family become closer and simple way to deal with it.

Eating Fast Can Lead To Diabetes

In this fast-paced world we seem to be required to do things in haste for the sake of an efficiency. These habits often carry over when we're eating food. In fact, some studies show that eating in a hurry can be bad, one of them overweight.

Eating Fast Can Lead To Diabetes

A recent study proves that eating fast can lead to diabetes in the elderly. That's because someone who used to spend a meal with a number of chewed slightly and then immediately swallowed up will increase the amount of sugar in the blood stream immediately. As a result, the body will be easier to have impaired glucose tolerance, also known as prediabetes.

Dr. Pradeep Ratnaparkhi, researchers are testing the topic outline, "The level of glucose in the blood in people with impaired glucose tolerance is higher than normal, so they are at high risk of diabetes," he said

Eating Fast Can Lead To Diabetes

Condition prediabetes who are not controlled quickly will lead to type 2 diabetes. "In the past 10 years these people are at risk of developing type 2 diabetes with the percentage of 50 percent," he explained.

Pradeep adds, eating too quickly can also lead to an increase in the number of calories consumed. This condition will eventually lead to weight gain which in turn is associated with pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes. Instead, by eating slowly seseoran usually will feel full sooner.

Ratnaparkhi suggested, "Eating healthy and exercising regularly can help people with pre-diabetes to maintain glucose levels under control. So eat slowly to stay slim and fit," he said.

Steve Jobs, Pancreatic Cancer, Smoking and Diabetes

noreply@blogger.com (kemploners) — Fri, 7 Oct 2011 12:57:00 +0700

Steve Jobs is pancreatic cancer, just like actor Patrick Swayze, who died of pancreatic cancer in September 2009. Here is a little about pancreatic cancer who quoted from Sol Goldman, John Hopkins Medical Center and WebMD. This article is part of the book Fat Loss Weight Loss DIABETES notes which will be released shortly. Diabetes is associated with the pancreas.

Steve Jobs's health was observed to be interesting, because the stock price of Apple shares Steve's health is influenced by rumors. For example, when Steve did not seem healthy at a MacWorld show in 2009, Steve said he "was in a hormonal imbalance". Then when he announced it will undergo maintenance, Apple's stock price fell. Every time a rumor circulated, whether genuine or fake about Steve's health, then the share price will fall.

Steve Jobs is known pancreatic cancer. And the following is a general idea of pancreatic cancer.

The pancreas is a gland that shaped tube, about 15 cm which is located at the back of the abdomen. The main task for the human body produces an enzyme that helps adalh intestines break down food, and produce the hormone insulin, which helps blood sugar regulation.

Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer death of both men and women and is one of the most deadly cancers, also known in medical circles as the "silent killer" America 38,000 people will be diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and 34,000 of them will die of it.

This cancer can be treated if in fact discovered in the early stages of cancer but the problem is difficult to diagnose early stage. In the early stages of cancer do not feel any symptoms. However, along with the magnitude of the growth of cancer, then it will feel pain in your upper abdomen that spreads to the back left.

The pain becomes when people affected by cancer eating or lying down. Another symptom that appears is the alias of yellow jaundice. Ability to survive for 5 years is 25 percent if the cancer surgery and was appointed as a child and has not spread.

Anyone who is at greatest risk for pancreatic cancer? The following are the factors that influence the incidence of pancreatic cancer:

1. Heredity. If there are 2 or more relatives who suffer from pancreatic cancer.

2. Ashkenazi Jewish descent

3. BRCA mutations

4. Age above 50 years

5. Heavy smokers.

6. Diabetes

7. Others, such as chronic liver disease, obesity, lack of exercise.

The first three factors mentioned above is that most can not be controlled. Yet a fourth factor that aging is not controllable, because the chronological age of the person continues to grow. However, the age of the body can be restored. One way is to conduct a comprehensive hormone therapy.

The fifth factor is smoking is a factor which I give special attention. According to John Hopkins, smoking is a risk factor for pancreatic cancer, and as we know, cigarette consumption in this country is enormous. Requires attention to all the people in Indonesia, that due to smoking is more than just lung cancer.

Premature deaths resulting from smoking is to worry about. Premature death means the loss of valuable talent that needed a very expensive enterprise, institution, organization in this country to move forward.

The sixth factor is diabetes. Patients with pancreatic cancer, 10-20 percent are diabetic. Diabetes is a risk that can fakor in "managed" with a healthy lifestyle. Key words diabetes is heredity, and lifestyle. Heredity certainly can not be changed, but the lifestyle can always be modified.

Several risk factors for diabetes is the originator of an overdose of sugar which causes fatigue pancreas, and foods rich in fat, especially trans fats found in palm oil, and sold at various fast food. Consumption of both the "back up" by monosodium glutamate, aka MSG, which reinforces a sense.

However, if you want to trace a bit, we need to think critically, what motivates people to become like the food, which eventually lead to diabetes.

One is the stress (suitable for the condition of Steve Jobs), either in the form of job stress, stressful romantic relationships, financial stress. One solution is to actually find a solution to this stress, teaches new healthy lifestyle. That is, who needs to be changed is mindsetnya, demonstrated a new way, and given examples of how to do it.

All companies, organizations, ionstansi, should make healthy living training mindset changes. Because if negligent, could make an impact for the overall team strength, especially if the affected are executives in high positions such as Steve Jobs.

Either smoking or diabetes, to change lifestyle, it takes more than just an appeal. But the need of conditioning. Because it takes is a change in mindset. Changes in behavior, which has been heralded, will not give any results without a change in mindset. The change means changing the subconscious mindset that needs special techniques to do it. Not just an appeal. Should be standard procedure. Part of the obligation.

If the organization still wants changes to improve performance, it's time to corporate health strategy to be one competitive advantage that is applied in the company. Changing the mindset, change the behavior so change the results. Thus, we can reduce the risk of premature loss of talented people like Steve Jobs of Apple lost.

Pattern of Eating For Honey Bone

noreply@blogger.com (kemploners) — Fri, 7 Oct 2011 12:46:00 +0700

Bone disease or osteoporosis in the future will be one of serious diseases among the inhabitants of Asia. By 2050 an estimated 50 percent of cases of osteoporosis in the world will occur in Asia. In addition to its life expectancy, higher population, unhealthy lifestyles are also a trigger.

In fact, osteporosis actually very easily prevented, by maintaining bone health since a young age. By running the sports activity and good nutrition, calcium, plus a morning sun exposure sufficient to produce vitamin D in the body, it can strengthen bones.

According dr.Fiastuti Witjaksono, Sp.GK, a nutritionist from the Faculty of Medicine, University of Indonesia, to maintain bone health should begin since childhood. "Once we entered the age of 30 years, bone density will decrease as the speed of bone regeneration cycle more slowly than on the process of destruction," he said.

Associated with nutritional needs, nutritional diasup Fiastuti explained should not be excessive and the principles of balanced nutrition. "When we are eating too much fat, it will bind with calcium, thus inhibiting the absorption of calcium," he explained in the Warning event with 10 Years of Cooperation Anlene Perwatusi in Jakarta some time ago.

Protein also should not be excessive because it will cause excess calcium expenditure. "Also avoid foods that contain high sodium or salt because it will increase spending on calcium," he said.

Strong bones should also be supported with calcium and vitamin D intake is adequate. In Indonesia, the calcium intake is still considered low. Until now, the average calcium intake of Indonesian society is known about 254 mg per day, still far below international standards that recommend the consumption of calcium for adults of 1000-1200 mg per day.

"Calcium is plentiful source, but is easily absorbed by the body are derived from milk because of lactose," added the doctor of Siloam Semanggi MRCCC this.

However, consumption of calcium alone is not enough, without a corresponding offset sport. Appropriate exercise is to support the body weight (weight bearing), for example walking or lifting weights.

Stay away from Osteoporosis, Avoid These Foods

noreply@blogger.com (kemploners) — Fri, 7 Oct 2011 11:44:00 +0700

In addition to support the body, bones also serves as a place to store important body minerals. Because of the bone must be maintained, one with attention to food intake.

Foods that are high in calcium is needed to increase bone density, but there are some foods and beverages should be avoided because it accelerates bone loss by releasing minerals. What are these foods?

1. Soft Drinks

Carbonated beverages contain phosphoric acid which will increase the rate of expenditure of calcium through the urine. Plus, most of the soda enthusiasts in general avoid calcium-rich beverages like milk.

2. Salt

Salt, or more specifically sodium, causing loss of calcium and slowly reduce bone density. According to experts, you will lose about 40 milligrams of calcium in the urine for every 2,300 milligrams of sodium, the amount of sodium that must be met in a day.

In a study of postmenopausal women found that women who undergo high-sodium diet lost more bone mineral than those who do not.

Need to be aware that salt also appears in almost all processed foods such as whole wheat bread, sausage, cereal and fast food that contains 75 percent of the total daily sodium intake.

3. Caffeine

Caffeine also has the effect of increasing spending on bone calcium. In addition to coffee, quite a lot of foods and beverages that contain caffeine high, such as energy drinks (about 80 mg per can). The issue has put on weight because caffeine addiction effects so it is difficult to switch to healthier choices.

4. Alcohol

Research shows that excessive intake of alcohol affects bone health and increase the risk of osteoporosis later in life. Excessive alcohol consumption will affect the pancreas and the absorption of calcium and vitamin D.

Some studies also found that alcohol lowers the female hormone estrogen and can cause irregular periods. Decreased levels of estrogen will trigger the process of remodeling or bone remodeling.

5. Vitamin A

Vitamin A is found in eggs, liver and milk fat is very good for the immune system and eyesight. But a study published in The New England Journal of Medicine found that excessive intake of vitamin A may increase the risk of fractures as much as seven times, especially those who took supplements of vitamin A. Even so vitamin A in small doses is still important for the body.

6. Trans fat

Research shows that vitamin K will be destroyed when a liquid vegetable oil is converted into solid oil hydrogenation process. Vitamin K is needed for calcium absorption and strong bones. She can be obtained from green leafy vegetables and vegetable oils like canola and olive oil.

When Should Our Bones Need to be Checked?

noreply@blogger.com (kemploners) — Fri, 7 Oct 2011 11:34:00 +0700

Bone density will decrease as the age of 30 years and stepped on will continue to decline gradually with age so that the risk of increased bone fragility and fracture.

Bone disease or osteoporosis, according to orthopedic specialists from Ciptomangunkusumo Hospital (RSCM) Jakarta Errol Hutagalung goes unnoticed because it does not cause symptoms.

"In fact, one of three women and one in five men will develop osteoporosis over the age of 50 years," he told a press conference at the Personalized Health Care Osteoporosis Jakarta (6 / 10).

Therefore, he suggested that those who suffer from osteoporosis at high risk of early detection to check their bone density.

"According to WHO, the raw standard diagnosis of osteoporosis is by examination of bone density or BMD measurment. Unfortunately, in Indonesia the tool is only 50 pieces and 40 of them exist only in Java," he said.

For that, now the Indonesian Doctors Association (IDI) has conducted training to the health center to locate patients at high risk of osteoporosis and take precautionary action to avoid fractures.

"Conducting BMD screening is rather difficult, therefore, health center doctors are empowered to give treatment in patients at high risk of osteoporosis," he added.

He explained there are two categories of osteoporosis, namely primary and secondary. Primary osteoporosis is partly due to factors over 70 years of age and postmenopausal. While secondary osteoporosis are those who suffer from osteoporosis due to illness or long-term steroid treatment.

"For those at high risk do not need to check the bone, directly given preventive medications such as calcium," he said.

Meanwhile, for women who are still menstruating are advised to take precautions by maintaining high calcium diet and doing regular physical activity.

"As long as menstruation, meaning the hormone estrogen to maintain bone density is still a lot. Not needed check bone, but lifestyle must be changed for healthy bones," he said.

Listening to Cancer That Suffered by Steve Jobs And The Prevention

noreply@blogger.com (kemploners) — Thu, 6 Oct 2011 22:38:00 +0700

One of the founders of Apple Inc, Steve Jobs has died after battling pancreatic cancer since 2004. Just how great a life expectancy of pancreatic cancer patients?

"Very little chance of his life, because it is usually found after the cancer in an advanced stage, so little chance of his life," said Dr. Drajat Ryanto Suardi, SpB (K) Onk detikHealth when contacted on Thursday (10/06/2011).

Dr. Drajat said this is because the location of the pancreas is an organ located in the stomach making it difficult to do early detection (early detection). If the cancer is still in an early stage then it will not appear symptoms, but if the cancer is already large and pressing the pancreatic lymph channels emerging pain.

"But sometimes the pain is often regarded as stomach pain because it was close, so people often think it's an ulcer or gastritis," said the doctor who served as Chairman of the Oncology Society of Indonesia.

Until now the cause of pancreatic cancer is not known with certainty and is still in the stage of conjecture. But there are theories that say that genetic factors play a role although not a major factor, as well as an imbalance in cell growth factor.

Pancreatic cancer usually begins in the pancreatic tissue that lies horizontally on the back of the lower abdomen. This organ serves secretes enzymes that help digestion and the hormone insulin to regulate sugar metabolism.

This cancer can spread quickly and are rarely detected at an early stage, so it often becomes a major cause of cancer death. Besides the signs and symptoms of this cancer is most likely not appear until the cancer is large enough and surgery to his appointment has also been difficult.

"If you often experience heartburn symptoms are intermittent, often we are led there. To diagnose it is usually performed as well as endoscopic ultrasound," said the doctor, who also serves as Chairman of the Community Palliative Indonesia.

As for treatment depends on the stage, location of the cancer, patient's age and overall health. If possible the treatment of pancreatic cancer through surgery, but if not possible then the treatment is done to prevent pancreatic cancer continues to grow and spread to other areas

"Prevention is difficult, but the most important is a healthy lifestyle, it's the same as primary prevention for other types of cancer," said Dr. Drajat.

10 Tips to Prevent Diabetes Mellitus

noreply@blogger.com (kemploners) — Tue, 4 Oct 2011 06:55:00 +0700

If you are aged over 45 years, or younger, but at high risk for diabetes (eg, because one or both of your parents have diabetes or your weight above normal) ... beware! Diabetes is always stalking you. Increasingly, more and more people in Indonesia who suffer type 2 diabetes (diabetes that starts during adulthood). According to estimates by the World Health Organization (WHO) the number of type-2 diabetics in Indonesia increased three-fold increase in 10 years and in 2010 reached 21.3 million people. Compare with 2000, the number of sufferers has just reached 8.4 million people.

Type-2 diabetes is associated with a condition known as insulin resistance. Although there are elements of impaired insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells, its main flaw is the inability of the body to respond to insulin properly. Pancreas has been working hard to produce more insulin, but the body tissues (eg, muscle and fat cells) do not respond and not sensitive to insulin. At this point, diabetes occurs in which blood sugar levels rise above normal. Blood sugar levels are constantly high in the end will lead to many health complications serius.

Fortunately, you can prevent type-2 diabetes through lifestyle changes. Making some simple changes in your lifestyle now can help you prevent and control diabetes. Consider the following 10 tips on diabetes prevention:

1. Do more physical activity

There are many benefits of exercising regularly. Exercise can help increase your body's sensitivity to insulin, which helps keep blood sugar levels within normal range. According to a study conducted in men who were followed for 10 years, for every 500 kcal burned per week through exercise, there is a 6% reduction in relative risk for developing diabetes. The study also noted a greater benefit to men who are more obese.

With increasing exercise, the body use insulin more efficiently to 70 hours after exercise. So, exercising 3-4 times a week will be beneficial to most people. Research shows that both aerobic exercise and resistance exercise can help control diabetes, but the biggest benefit comes from a fitness program that includes both. It should be noted that many of the benefits of exercise independent of weight loss. However, when combined with weight loss, profits increased substantially.

2. Get plenty of fiber in the diet

Fiber diet not only reduces the risk of diabetes by improving blood sugar control but also lowers the risk of heart disease and maintain ideal weight by helping you feel full. Foods high in fiber include fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts and tubers. One high-fiber foods that are proven to control diabetes is rice bran or rice bran.

3. Eat nuts and seeds

Although it is not clear why, whole grains may reduce the risk of diabetes and help keep blood sugar levels. In a study of more than 83,000 women, consumption of peanuts (and peanut butter) seems to indicate some protective effect against the development of diabetes. Women who consumed more than five one-ounce servings of nuts per week reduce the risk of developing diabetes than women who do not eat nuts at all.

4. Lose weight

About 80% of diabetics are overweight and overweight. If you are overweight, diabetes prevention may depend on weight loss. Every kg you lose weight can improve your health. In one study, overweight adults reduce their diabetes risk by 16 percent for every kilogram of body weight lost. Also, those who lost some weight at least 5 to 10 percent of initial body weight and exercising regularly reduces the risk of diabetes almost 60 percent in three years.

5. Drink low-fat dairy products

Data regarding low-fat dairy products appear to vary, depending on whether you are obese or not. In obese people, the more low-fat milk is consumed, the lower the risk of metabolic syndrome. In particular, those who consume more than 35 servings of dairy products a week had a much lower risk than those who consumed less than 10 servings a week. Interestingly, the relationship is not so strong in people who are slim.

6. Reduce animal fat

In a study of more than 42,000 people, a diet high in red meat, processed meat, high-fat dairy products, and candy, was associated with an increased risk of diabetes almost twice of those who eat a healthy diet. This was independent of body weight and other factors.

7. Reduce sugar consumption

Sugar consumption was not associated with the development of type 2 diabetes. However, after adjusting for weight and other variables, it seems there is a relationship between drinking sugar-laden beverages and the development of type 2 diabetes. Women who drank one or more sugary drinks a day had nearly double the risk of developing diabetes than women who drank one or less per month.

8. Stop smoking

Smoking not only contributes to heart disease and cause lung cancer but is also associated with the development of diabetes. Smoking over 20 cigarettes a day can increase the risk of diabetes for more than three times that of nonsmokers. Exact reasons for this are not well understood. The possibility of direct smoking lowers the body's ability to utilize insulin. In addition, there is also the relationship between smoking and body fat distribution. Smoking tends to encourage the body shape "apple" which is a risk factor for diabetes.

9. Avoid trans fats

Avoid consuming trans fats (hydrogenated vegetable oils) are widely used in processed and fast food. They have been shown to contribute to heart disease and may also lead to type-2 diabetes.

10. Get support

Get friends, family or group of people to assist you in preventing diabetes. They can support you in memempertahankan your new healthy lifestyle.

Dental Health in Pregnancy

noreply@blogger.com (kemploners) — Mon, 3 Oct 2011 19:01:00 +0700

Are you being pregnant?

Be careful with your teeth. During pregnancy, there are two things that have an impact on your teeth.

First and foremost, there are hormonal changes that tend to weaken the teeth and gums. Inflammation of the gums (gingivitis) often occur and result in pain, swelling, bleeding, and sometimes in rare cases, loosening of teeth. Some women may develop "pregnancy tumor" on their gums are sore gums bumps and reddish purple.

The second change is diet. Pregnant women often experience nausea and vomiting as well as changing eating habits. They also often crave sweet things that cause cavities and decay. Several studies showed that the bacteria that cause tooth decay are transmitted from mother to child. So be careful of what you eat. It is important to reduce the snacks and sweets to eat after a big meal, rather than between meals.

If there is a dental problem during pregnancy, tell your dentist if you are pregnant. Dental care during the first trimester should be avoided as much as possible. It is an important period of growth and development of the baby so the mother should avoid actions that could affect the baby. However, routine dental care may be performed during the second trimester. All actions can be delayed teeth should be delayed until after delivery.

Most drugs are not recommended during pregnancy, including medications such as ibuprofen, aspirin, or piroxicam. Certain drugs such as tetracycline can affect your child's dental development and should not be administered during pregnancy. Tell your dentist of all medications you are taking. Your dentist may have to change your dental treatment plan based on such information.

Nutrition is very important during pregnancy because your baby get the nutrients from your body. By eating right, you can start caring for your baby's teeth from early in pregnancy. Your baby's teeth begin to develop at about three months of your pregnancy.

Be sure to include foods with calcium and vitamin D in your diet. Dairy products, cheese and yogurt are important sources of minerals and good for perkembagan teeth, gums and bones of your baby. Your doctor can provide information to help you eat well during pregnancy.

Dental Care Can Prevent Heart Disease?

noreply@blogger.com (kemploners) — Mon, 3 Oct 2011 18:52:00 +0700

How could the tooth, part of the body that are relatively unrelated, affect the heart?

People who regularly check their teeth and take care of their teeth tend to have fewer heart problems. This conclusion was discovered by Professor Howard Jenkinson from the University of Bristol, England. Jenkinson was accidentally get the findings when examining how blood cells are affected by bacteria.

Bacteria in the mouth

The mouth has almost 700 species of bacteria that live in it. These bacteria help break down food particles. Every time you eat, drink or even open your mouth, the number of bacteria in your mouth will increase. Most of them are the type of bacteria that are safe, but there are also dangerous. Brushing your teeth properly and take care of keeping the bacterial growth remained under control.

However, poor dental care can lead to gum infections, gingivitis and other oral diseases. This can cause harmful bacteria enter the bloodstream and becomes an independent factor that causes heart disease. The bacteria are spread through your arteries from the mouth can also lead to increased plaque formation, as well as foods rich in saturated fat increases the production of plaque on artery walls. This is contributing to increased blood pressure and decreased blood flow leading to heart disease and even stroke. Streptococcus Gordonii and Streptococcus sanguinis are some bacteria that cause mouth infections and identified the factors that cause heart disease.

Prevention is better

Certain antibiotics appears to be ineffective against heart disease. It is possible that oral bacteria cause. Professor Jenkinson and Dr Steve Kerringan still working to find solutions. Until found, prevention of oral disease and maintaining oral hygiene is the best method to protect yourself. Protection can be further enhanced by using dental care products such as anti-bacterial spray and mouthwash. This helps to prevent infection of the mouth and, in turn, protects against one cause of heart disease.

9 Tips on Caring Milk Teeth Care

noreply@blogger.com (kemploners) — Mon, 3 Oct 2011 18:40:00 +0700

Milk teeth or primary teeth is a bunch of first gear. There were 20 in number, namely 10 in the upper jaw and 10 in the lower jaw (each 4 incisors, 2 canines and 4 molars). The number is much smaller compared with 32 permanent adult teeth.

Second Tooth Gonephoto © 2007 Matthew Exley | more info (via: Wylio) Baby teeth begin to form in the womb and begin to appear at age 5-8 months, although it can vary from child to child. Boys are generally slower to develop than girls milk teeth. Last milk teeth usually appear at age 2-3 years. At the age of 6-12 years, baby teeth on one by one permanent tooth to be replaced. At age 13, a child usually does not have milk teeth remaining, and already has 28 of the 32 permanent adult teeth in his mouth. Last permanent teeth are usually the third molars or wisdom teeth, which appear from late teens to mid-twenties.

The role of milk teeth

Some parents believe that baby teeth do not need to be treated because they will be dated in a few years. This is wrong understanding. Baby teeth are very instrumental to the development of the jaw, facial muscles and permanent dental health. Although baby teeth will be replaced by permanent teeth, it needs to happen at the right age. If a milk tooth is lost too early, permanent teeth tend not positioned properly, grow sideways or even blocked another tooth. Damage and diseases in milk teeth can also easily switch to permanent teeth. Some baby teeth still survive until the age of 10-12 years, so many opportunities to transmit the decay into their new neighbors are permanent. If the decay spreads to the root, tooth root infection in the milk can infiltrate into the roots of permanent teeth. Therefore, it is important for parents to watch their child's dental health.

Here some tips on caring for milk teeth

1. Baby teeth need the same care with permanent teeth. They need attention from an infection or injury directly or indirectly. Rapid and appropriate treatment should be given to the milk teeth are decayed or injured by a fall or trauma.

2. Immediately after the first baby teeth appear, you should begin brushing your child's teeth. At first, you simply use your finger or cotton to clean your child's teeth. At the age of about one year, you can begin brushing your child and then supervise and guide children to brush their teeth. Lead children to brush their teeth until the age of 3-4 years or until the child is able to brush his own very well. Then, you simply watch.

3. Choose a toothbrush a good boy, who has rounded and soft fur. Brush head should be small in order to reach all corners. The handle should be quite thick but fit, comfortable and safe in the hands of children.

4. Toothbrush rinse well and dry in the air after use. Replace your toothbrush every three months.

5. Use a special toothpaste children with materials that are not harmful if swallowed. Look for toothpaste with fluoride content of 600 ppm maximum. Starting school age, children can switch to an adult toothpaste, with fluoride levels of 0.1% or 1,000 ppm (maximum 1500 ppm). Fluoride is very important for the formation of healthy teeth.

6. Use toothpaste sparingly, just enough for peanuts. Do not be taken in the influence of advertising that suggests the application of toothpaste to cover all surfaces of the toothbrush. An overdose of fluoride during tooth formation can lead to a problem called fluorosis. Children's teeth become brown with white spots permanently. Children under age six are vulnerable to this problem.

7. Give examples of good brushing habits in children. Brush your teeth in the morning and afternoon. This motivates the children to imitate you. Brush teeth in sufficient time (about three minutes) so that the entire surface of your teeth really clean.

8. Visit your dentist regularly at least once in 6 months. Dental care is not only done against damage or injury, but also when there are child dental malocclusion. Regular visits allow the dentist to detect and correct problems early.

9. Stop thumb sucking habit. Thumb sucking is normal until the age of about 3-4 years. If thumb sucking continues after this age, should be an effort to stop it because it can be bad for your teeth. (The traditional way to break this habit is by the application of something bitter (eg brotowali) in the child's thumb).

Sensitive Teeth: What, Why and How to Overcome It

noreply@blogger.com (kemploners) — Mon, 3 Oct 2011 15:45:00 +0700

Sensitive teeth is a common problem that is very unpleasant. Why do teeth become sensitive and what should you do if have it?

Sensitive teeth is a condition in which the teeth react to food or drink hot, sweet or sour. If you have sensitive teeth, drink a cold soda or eating chocolate can cause sudden severe pain in your teeth. The pain was sharp (pain), such as electric shock and usually only lasts a few seconds.

Cause

Sensitive teeth are caused by the depletion layer is reduced or email on our teeth. Teeth are formed from the dental pulp, living tissue that contains blood vessels and nerves, the dentine which is the largest structure of dental tissue and email (enamel), a very hard outer coating. (See the tooth anatomy)

Under normal conditions, the dentin is covered by email or gums. Dentin has small pores (called tubules) on the surface that leads into a pulp that has a lot of nerve. If a tooth is worn or eroded gums (gum recession), dentin can be stimulated by the food hot / cold, sweet, or sour. Stimulation of the dentine is passed through the tubules to tooth nerves, triggering pain.

Email depletion mainly due to poor eating habits. Email demineralized experienced when in contact with acids, such as soft drinks (with or without sugar), tomatoes and oranges. Very sweet foods also promote bacterial activity, which then produce acids and exacerbate the problem. Mechanical stresses such as bruxism (teeth grinding during sleep) or brushing with whitening toothpaste that is too aggressive can also damage the email.

What can you do?

Sensitive teeth can be faced with two approaches, reducing the things that cause problems and reduce tooth sensitivity.

1. Use a special toothpaste for sensitive teeth. Change your toothpaste to control plaque and whiten teeth with special toothpaste sensitive teeth. This particular toothpaste has active substances such as potassium nitrate, citrate or oxalate which helps inhibit the sensation from the tooth surface to the nerve, thereby reducing pain associated with sensitive teeth. Brush your teeth twice a day and do not brush your teeth for one hour after consuming acidic foods or beverages.

2. Brush your teeth properly. Brushing correctly is very important to maintain your dental health. Brushing too hard can make teeth more sensitive. Choose a fluffy brush and keep brushing at a 45 degree angle against your gum line with short strokes and soft, especially on a meeting place of teeth and gums.

3. Use a fluoride toothpaste. Although today almost all fortified with fluoride toothpaste, you need to make sure. Fluoride in toothpaste will help to gradually resurface your email (remineralization) and strengthens the tooth surface that has been demineralized by acid bacteria. Mouthwash containing fluoride is also a good choice for sensitive teeth.

4. Reduce foods and beverages trigger. If you are accustomed to drinking tea or coffee sweetened, reduce the sugar in your drink. If you are accustomed to chewing gum at all times, reduce the amount of candy that goes into your mouth. For a while, cut fruits such as oranges, pineapples, tomatoes and sour soursop, replace with fruits that are less acidic and not too sweet.

5. Get protective gear. If you often wake up with headaches or jaw pain, you may have a habit menggeretukkan teeth during sleep (bruxism). This habit makes the teeth wear out and cause tooth sensitivity. To fix this, you need to visit a dentist to get a mouth guard can protect your teeth during sleep.

6. Ensure adequate calcium. Eat calcium-rich foods such as milk, yogurt, and cheese. Calcium is needed for healthy bones and teeth.

If you've done good dental care, but you still continue to wince in pain when sipping hot or biting wedang lunkhead is legit, consult with experts. Your dentist can evaluate your condition and help determine the best way to reduce your tooth sensitivity.

Sports At The Right Time When Menstruation?

noreply@blogger.com (kemploners) — Mon, 3 Oct 2011 08:12:00 +0700

When was your period, we often become lazy to exercise. The reasons vary, from the discomfort of having to wear pads, uneasy because a moist vaginal area, or because of stomach cramps that occur. When abdominal pain and bloating, very difficult to motivate yourself to go to the gym.

So that menstruation does not hinder your intention to exercise, you should figure out the right time to do so. Jade Teta, holistic expert, personal trainer, and founder of the Metabolic Effect, saying that you need to know the phases of the menstrual cycle.

Menstruation is divided into three phases, namely the follicular phase, phase ovulatior, and the luteal phase. According to the site www.siklusmenstruasi.com, follicular phase occurs when levels of FSH (folicle stimulating hormone) increases slightly, thus stimulating the growth of ovarian follicles (egg sacs wall). Ovulatior phase occurs when levels of LH (luteinizing hormone) increases and the mature follicles will stand out to the wall surface of the egg to release an egg (ovulation). While the luteal phase is the release of eggs from the ovary for 14 days, and ovary sacs will close again and form kopus luteum produces large amounts of the hormone progesterone.

"Follicular phase was associated with higher levels of estrogen, compared with progesterone, luteal phase while the opposite," said Theta.

Then how we should use this cycle to maximize our training?

Teta says, estrogen increases the amount of fat burned during exercise, but makes less efficient burning of sugar. While progesterone is opposite to that of estrogen. Because exercise with relatively lower intensity burns more fat, and higher intensity triggered more by burning sugar, women can change their exercise habits according to these fluctuations.

So in the first half of your menstrual cycle, select a slow but steady exercise, such as walking, cycling, or jogging. For the second half of the menstrual cycle, just do a sprint workout or interval training. The definition of interval training is a short workout with high intensity, followed by a longer period to recover. For example, you ran sprints for 20 seconds, then you walk for 60 seconds. Sprints and interval training exercises can increase your metabolism for hours or even days after you exercise.

If you like to do strength training, workout with weights is also very beneficial. "Even so you should focus on traditional weight training during the follicular phase, and more weight training that affect metabolism, which is performed in the luteal phase and during menses," said Theta.

In addition to physical exercise, do not forget to keep watching what we eat.

"Research shows that women who consume lots of carbohydrates will tend to wipe out the benefits of the menstrual cycle. So, all of the above exercise would be more beneficial for women who consume fewer carbohydrates, "he said.

Post-Married, People Tend Lazy Getting Sports

noreply@blogger.com (kemploners) — Mon, 3 Oct 2011 08:02:00 +0700

The latest survey shows that couples who are married tend to get less time exercising that indirectly make them at risk of disease.

A poll in Britain found that married couples do not get enough time to do physical activity for 150 minutes, rather than those who are still single.

"Because people who are married feel old and have more responsibility for their children and limit their activity patterns. Last weekend was a golden opportunity to take them out and enjoy the natural environment that has been shown to provide additional benefits," said Dr. Len Almond, a visiting professor at St. Mary's University College.

Meanwhile, Professor Dame Sally Davies, said, doing little physical activity every day will provide great benefits. "Adults can now get the time for 150 minutes a week to stay active in ten minutes. This can be obtained from daily activities such as fun runs or even cleaning the house," he said.

An academic study published the previous year showed that married couples are twice as likely to be obese than their peers who are single.The latest survey shows that couples who are married tend to get less time exercising that indirectly make them at risk of disease.

Importance of Children's Eye Health Check

noreply@blogger.com (kemploners) — Mon, 3 Oct 2011 05:13:00 +0700

Many children who threatened to have impaired vision. Early detection is crucial in order to fix it before it's too late. Eyes of the children have their own schedule so that when growth has reached a certain stage it becomes difficult to correct eye disorders. In addition to examination by the pediatrician or eye doctor, the parents play an important role to detect abnormalities in their children's eyes, provided that they sufficiently understand the signs.

Development of the child's vision

Child's visual system develops very rapidly in the first 18 months, which then become perfect at age 5 or 6 years.

At birth, infants can see patterns of light and dark, but the focus is still blurry. Baby world consists of "confined space" is no farther than about one meter. Sighted infants who will respond to people's faces, especially her mother, who stared at him from close range.

Between the ages of 4-6 months the baby will move his head, not only to follow moving objects, but also when looking at other objects.

At the age of 6-8 months infant vision must be steady and straight. At this age your baby can see in full color, grab objects, and his eyes have coordinated well controlled so that the eye movement began. Your baby will be able to obtain visual information with eye movements alone, so that head movements follow the body is reduced.

At 8-12 months your baby will use both eyes together to judge distances and develop depth perception.

As the growth of children at ages 1-3 years old, hand-eye coordination will improve and the child begins to better understand their environment. At this stage, children begin to explore their environment.

Child's eye health problems

There are a variety of eye problems that can befall a child at each stage of growth. Abnormalities of the eye at the age under one year generally are innate / congenital.

Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a condition where the retina has not been perfect and the only part of development that overwhelmed so easily damaged blood vessels and detached, causing blindness. This condition is more common in babies born prematurely.

Conjunctivitis gonorrhea infection in infants born vaginally to mothers exposed to gonorrhea.

Infantile cataract is cloudiness in the eyes of newborns.

Congenital glaucoma is congenital condition where the eye drainage channel is not formed correctly before birth.

Abnormalities in a more advanced age due to developmental disorders or diseases. Here are some eye health problems that can befall a child:

Amblyopia (lazy eye) is the lack of visual acuity defect that can not be fully corrected with eyeglasses or contact lenses. Two common causes of amblyopia is a cross eye refraction and refractive difference between the eyes. If left untreated, amblyopia can cause permanent vision loss in the affected eye. Amblyopia must be corrected in the pre-school age.

Strabismus (crossed eyes) is a visual defect in which the two eyes point leads to a different focus. One eye can lead to the right, left, upward, or downward, while the other eye fixed on the other. Strabismus causes the loss of stereoscopic depth perception. With early detection, strabismus can be corrected by closing the eye that focuses completely thereby forcing the eye that does not sync to work. Operations or special glasses can also help eye alignment.

Abnormalities of refraction so that the lens of the eye does not refract or reflect light properly, so images appear blurred. Nearsightedness, farsightedness and Astigmatism / cylindrical refractive error is the most common.

Retinoblastoma is a malignant tumor that usually appears within the first 3 years of life. The affected eye may lose visual and white pupils.

Signs of eye disorders

Rarely moving the eyes, do not turn a blind eye when in bright sunlight, or lack of consistent response to the mother's face is a sign of a baby having vision problems in both eyes. Delay stages of vision, eye complaints, watery eyes, likes to squint / blink or frown, and squint eyes are another common sign. Examination by an ophthalmologist who trained highly recommended if these signs are present. Especially, watch out for the following developmental delays in your child:

In the first week after birth, the baby does not direct the view towards the light or vice versa, just avoid the light.

At the age of one to two months have not looked at his mother's face.

At the age of three to four months did not see his hands. He did not smile on the faces are familiar.

At the age of six months does not capture the object to be brought to the mouth. He seems not to distinguish faces familiar with strangers.

At the age of nine months did not react to sudden movements. He did not look for objects that disappear from view.

In children of school age, the following signs may be present:

The inability to see objects from far away

The inability to read the blackboard

Frequent squinting

Difficulty reading

Sitting too close to the TV

How to test your child's vision?

Try putting an interesting object in front of one eye and observe how your baby reacts to the object. Objects can face you or a small toy, such as brightly colored dolls. Reaction would indicate the presence and quality of vision in the eye being tested. In this case you should not use an object that reads, for example, small bells, because it will be difficult to determine whether the baby to see or hear the bell.

Once toddlers begin to speak, he could be invited to participate in the testing process. The pictures or familiar objects, such as toys, dolls, and others can be used for testing. Children are asked to identify the object shown. Each eye must be tested separately, with the other eye closed, because that's the best way to find out whether there are differences in the ability of vision.

If a child shows the presence of vision problems, immediately consult a professional eye of experts to identify and deal with visual problems that exist. Early diagnosis of eye problems is the key to the success of correction or healing.

600 000 Passive Smokers Die in Each Year

noreply@blogger.com (kemploners) — Mon, 3 Oct 2011 03:44:00 +0700

Approximately one out of 100 causes of death in the world caused by passive smoking, which killed an estimated 600,000 people per year, according to the findings of the researchers the World Health Organization (WHO) on Friday.

In the first study to assess the effect of passive smoking, the WHO experts found the children are more exposed to cigarette smoke of others than any other age group, and consequently approximately 165,000 of them will die.

"Two thirds of these deaths occur in Africa and south Asia," say the researchers, led by Annette Pruss-Ustun of WHO in Geneva, who wrote his findings.

Exposure of children to secondhand smoke often occur at home, and infectious diseases and tobacco is a deadly combination for children, they said.

Commenting on the findings, written in the journal Lancet, Heather Wipfli, and Jonathan Samet of the University of Southern California, said many policy makers try to motivate families to stop smoking in the house.

"In some countries, a lot of smoke-free home but still far from common," they write.

WHO scientists using data from 192 countries for their research. In order to get comprehensive data from around 192 countries, they should return in 2004.

They use a mathematical example to estimate mortality and duration of death in good health.

Globally, 40 percent of children, 33 percent of male non-smokers and 35 percent of women non-smokers exposed to passive smoking in 2004, according to their findings.

The results of this exposure is estimated to cause 379,000 deaths from heart disease, 165,000 lower respiratory infections, 36,900 from asthma and 21,400 from lung cancer.

For the full effect of smoking, these deaths could increase from an estimated 5.1 million deaths per year of active users of tobacco, said the group's researchers.

Children

Although the mortality of children is common in poor countries and middle, mortality in adults spread across the country with different income levels.

High-income countries such as Europe, only 71 children who died, while 35,388 deaths occur in adults. In Africa, an estimated 43,375 child deaths than 9514 deaths in adults.

Pruss-Ustun urged many countries to strengthen the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control belongs to the WHO, such as raising tobacco taxes, create a plain cigarette packets and bans on tobacco advertising.

"Policy makers should be aware that enforce tobacco-free law is likely to greatly reduce mortality caused from exposure to passive smoking in the first year of implementation, accompanied by a reduction in illness in health and social system," he wrote.

Only 7.4 percent of world population who live in smoke-free laws shade, and the law is not always enforced.

Places that have enacted smoke-free legislation, the study showed that exposure to passive smoking in high-risk places such as bars and restaurants can be cut by 90 percent, and generally up to 60 percent, the researchers said.

The study also showed regulation helps reduce the number of cigarettes that were burned by a smoker and produces a high success rate in people who want to quit smoking.

Laughter, Exercise for the Heart

noreply@blogger.com (kemploners) — Sun, 2 Oct 2011 23:11:00 +0700

Want to know the secret of a healthy heart? Maybe the doctor will write a prescription for laughs 1 x 15 minutes each day. One study showed that laughter can improve blood circulation which will, if done regularly can be a protector of the powerful heart disease. Not believe?

Right! The researchers of Maryland Medical Center asked 20 healthy adults to watch scenes from two different movies, a comedy film and the other war movies. As they watched, the researchers monitor the work function of their arteries. After watching a funny video, the volunteers' blood vessels dilated by 22 percent and 35 percent narrowed after seeing the battle scenes.

Widening will keep the blood flowing through blood vessels without any pain and makes the heart and arteries contract. "It also happens when we do aerobic exercise," said Michael Miller, MD, one of the researchers.

Laughter can trigger the release of nitric oxide, are compounds that will create a relaxing blood cells, "added Miller. Plus, these compounds will also release endorphins, the hormones in charge of repairing blood vessels. Advice from Miller, spend at least 15 minutes to really laugh every day.

Positive Thoughts Relieves Pain

noreply@blogger.com (kemploners) — Sun, 2 Oct 2011 22:48:00 +0700

Postive minded people who enjoy life more generally positive. However, whether they be healthier? The answer is, yes. Optimism is a source of healing, helps reduce pain and help us manage stress.

As is known, our bodies actually respond to thoughts, emotions, and actions that we do. Therefore, expectations that arise can also affect the results of treatment performed. The placebo effect proves this theory. Drug or placebo containing no medical benefit except beliefs often affect patients heal.

Changing our expectations from negative to positive significant impact on a person's health status. Here are some things we can do to invite positive energy overwhelms us.

1. Stop all negative talk, such as gossiping or complaining. Make positive statements to support the recovery.

2. Flood your mind with affirmations. Affirmations are words or phrases which give strength or positive statements about ourselves, for example, "I am someone who can be counted" or "my legs strong and flexible".

3. Visualize a healthy condition and fit to support the positive affirmations.

4. Do not feel guilty. Still open opportunities to reduce the effects of disease due to some diseases remain arise, no matter what we've done. Try all ways possible.

5. Be open to humor, friendship, and love as this will increase creativity, reduce pain and accelerate healing.

Oversleep is Danger For Your Life

noreply@blogger.com (kemploners) — Sun, 2 Oct 2011 22:08:00 +0700

We know that it is difficult to sleep or commonly known as insomnia are not good for health. Likewise with the "opponent", ie, oversleeping (excess sleep) or hypersomnia, it is equally bad for the body.

Although sleep is an activity that must be met to help the process of rejuvenation of body, if done excessively, it will have a negative effect on health. Experts also recommend against sleeping more than nine hours each night.

What are the possible cause of oversleeping or hypersomnia?

• Sleep apnea, type of sleep disorder in which people stop breathing for a moment when sleeping and can lead to increased need for sleep as it makes the normal sleep cycle is disturbed. The patient will feel tired and weak even after sleeping for 10 hours. Respiratory problems began to occur because the wall of the throat tend to stop the move, while the individual is in a state of relaxation (sleeping). As a result, the air flow inside the body stops and the individual immediately awoke to breathe.

• Narcolepsy, which causes neurological problems oversleeping. Narcolepsy affects parts of the brain that controls and regulates sleep. Patients (narcolepsy) failed to identify and distinguish sleep time with time to stay awake. Sufferers can fall asleep anywhere and anytime.

• Stress and depression. These two things had to be avoided because it can cause many mental health disorders, as well as mental, not least oversleeping.

• Fatigue. Fatigue caused by working too hard, sleep disorders, pregnancy, or lack of sleep is one of the main causes of oversleeping. When feeling tired, you tend to decide to sleep longer, even more than nine hours, to try to get fresh again.

What are the health effects of oversleeping?

• Diabetes. Research shows people who slept more than nine hours each night and 50 percent greater risk of developing diabetes than those who slept seven hours per night. The study also found, oversleeping can indicate a medical disorder that increases the likelihood of the effect of diabetes.

• Obesity. Research shows that those who slept for 90-10 hours each night 21 percent more likely to be obese than those who only sleep for 7-8 hours.

• Heart disease. A study showed that women who slept for 9-11 hours each night and 38 percent more likely to develop coronary heart disease.

• Headache. The researchers believe, headaches can be an effect of oversleeping. Those who sleep too long during the day often experience problems when you go to sleep at night, thus causing the onset of a headache the next day.

• Back pain. As you lie in bed for hours, often times there is pain in his back. People who suffer from back pain or back pain were susceptible to the doctor ordered to remain active, often do not lie down or sleep.

• Death. Several studies have found that people who sleep nine hours or more each night have higher mortality rates than those who slept seven to eight hours per night. The researchers speculate, depression and low socioeconomic status (also associated with sleep longer) may be associated with increased mortality (death).

What treatment options to cope with oversleeping?

Long sleep usually do not require treatment unless symptoms indicate a more serious disorder. In such cases, the cause must be known in advance. The biggest problem they have any old sleeping habits is to adjust the daily schedule for bedtime. If it does not meet the required quantity of sleep, they usually will feel upset and have exhausted the next day. They also face problems in social relationships.

Tips to overcome oversleeping:

• Select an alarm tone or sound right. Choosing the right voice is important to return you to reality, even from your deepest sleep.

• Do not be tempted to light sleep or snooze after you wake up. Avoid the use of the snooze button on the alarm because the alarm will only mess up your schedule.

• Maintain a regular sleep schedule. Make a habit that makes your body rest and come back regularly to be ready to move on the next day. Plan program activities until late only when you are free from the deadline the next day.

• Consult with your doctor. See your doctor if you experience symptoms of chronic oversleeping. It's important to know the disorders or diseases that cause you to experience oversleeping.
