How to avoid fat

During the Eid celebrations, what we all need to specially take into account is our +health. Here few tip to maintain health on Eid.

Red meat, beef and lamb, contains high cholesterol. Do not indulge in excessive intake of these kinds of meat as they will harm your health in the long-term, and your heart can get adversely affected.

Try to distribute as much meat on this Eid as possible. Keep a proportion for yourself and eat healthy which means taking proportional amounts of meat along with vegetables. If you are conscious of your health, then you can even count the number of calories that your are acquiring. 2000 calories in a day are more than sufficient. This can then be divided into four various meals.

Even the leanest cuts of beef can become high-fat diet-busters if you prepare them in unhealthy ways. Here are a few simple ways to control the fat. Cut off any visible, solid fat from meat before preparing, and then remove any remaining visible fat before eating. After cooking ground meat, put it into a strainer or colander and drain the fat.

 Then rinse the meat with hot water. Blot the meat with a paper towel to remove the water. After cooking, chill beef juices so that you can skim off and discard the hardened fat. Then add the juice to stews, soups and gravy.

Avoid the fatty part of meat to maintain your health. The tip is to refrain from having brain, fat and stomach of a goat.

If planning to eat meat on this Eid, the healthy tip is to take it in the boiled, charcoaled form and avoid taking it in oily/fried form as these increases the calories intake in a day. For example, kebabs are an excellent choice of food on Eid.

Include plenty of salads when having large meals of meat on Eid. Take small quantity instead of piling plates with unhealthy food. Limit the quantity of desserts too. Too much sweet does not let you remain healthy.

If you know pre-hand that you’ll be invited to places on Eid and thus cannot avoid meat, then allow yourself a better diet plan. Asking for a cup of lemon juice or green tea can help increasing the metabolism rate. Tea can also be taken but without sugar.

Causes of dry joints

Usually there are 3 major causes of dry joints, including articular cartilage is damaged, the bones under the cartilage damage and joint fluid secretion. Increasing age, the increasing aging, so, in some elderly may be the eroded articular cartilage causes the cartilage tear and how organizations cartilage deformation (in their teens can dry joints due to the uneven development of the ligaments, tendons, muscles and bones during the growing joints). During the development of human cartilage has always been innovative, but over the years the gradual recovery will decline and be destroyed.

 So increasingly articular cartilage thinning, leaving a fractured bone beneath. The bones when no protective layer of cartilage rub against each other will cause the cry of Contents Department. Besides, in addition to cartilage, to the joint position works well, need to have a synovial fluid (also called mucus, synovial fluid) that lubricates the joints and cartilage head. As age increases, the amount of mucus secreted in the joints decreases.

 This makes the joint operation is not "smooth" and cries. Because aging will lead to a series of changes in the key factors in the body such as the viscosity of the joint, the elasticity of the ligaments, the cartilage tissue by dry deposition of crystals salt causing a dry joint.

 Besides matching phenomenon is limited both in quantity and in quality caused by aging contribute to drying the match due to injury or aging, arthritic degeneration also increased joints, which implies degeneration of articular cartilage, intervertebral discs make joint surface dry, rough, not smooth, convex and concave when movement occurs cries

Stomach Cancer

Stomach cancer, also called gastric cancer, is a malignant tumor arising from the lining of the stomach. There has been a significant decrease in the number of people diagnosed with stomach cancer in the past 60 years. According to the American Cancer Society, the estimated numbers of new cases (people diagnosed with the condition) and deaths from gastric cancer in the United States in 2012 will be:

New cases: 21,320
Deaths: 15,070
Stomach cancers are classified according to the type of tissue where they originate. The most common type of stomach cancer is adenocarcinoma, which starts in the glandular tissue of the stomach and accounts for 90% to 95% of all stomach cancers. Other forms of stomach cancer include lymphomas, which involve the lymphatic system and sarcomas, which involve the connective tissue (such as muscle, fat, or blood vessels).

There are many known risk factors for stomach cancer, but it is not known exactly how these factors cause cells of the stomach lining to become cancerous. This is the subject of ongoing research.
Several changes thought to be pre-cancerous can occur in the stomach lining.

In chronic atrophic gastritis, the normal glands of the stomach are either decreased or absent. There is also some degree of inflammation (the stomach cells are damaged by cells of the immune system). Atrophic gastritis is often caused by H pylori infection. It can also be caused by an autoimmune reaction, in which a person’s immune system attacks the cells lining the stomach. Some people with this condition go on to develop pernicious anemia or other stomach problems, including cancer. It is not known exactly how this condition might progress to cancer.

Another possible pre-cancerous change is intestinal metaplasia. In this condition, the normal lining of the stomach is replaced with cells that closely resemble the cells that usually line the intestine. People with this condition usually have chronic atrophic gastritis as well. How and why this change occurs and progresses to stomach cancer is not well understood. This might also be related to H pylori infection.

Recent research has provided clues on how some stomach cancers form. For instance, H pylori bacteria, particularly certain subtypes, can convert substances in some foods into chemicals that cause mutations (changes) in the DNA of the cells in the stomach lining. This may also explain why certain foods such as preserved meats increase a person’s risk for stomach cancer. On the other hand, some of the foods that might lower stomach cancer risk, such as fruits and vegetables, contain antioxidants that can block substances that damage a cell’s DNA.

During the past few years, scientists have made a lot of progress in understanding how certain changes in DNA can cause normal stomach cells to grow abnormally and form cancers. DNA is the chemical in each cell that carries our genes — the instructions for how our cells function. We look like our parents because they are the source of our DNA. But DNA affects more than how we look..
The exact cause of stomach cancer is unknown, but a number of factors can increase the risk of the disease, including:

Gender -- men have more than double the risk of getting stomach cancer than women.
Race -- being African-American or Asian may increase your risk.
Genetics -- genetic abnormalities and some inherited cancer syndromes may increase your risk
Geography -- stomach cancer is more common in Japan, the former Soviet Union, and parts of Central America and South America.
Blood type -- individuals with blood group A may be at increased risk.
Advanced age -- stomach cancer occurs more often around ages 70 and 74 in men and women, respectively.

Family history of gastric cancer can double or triple the risk of stomach cancer.
Lifestyle factors such as smoking, drinking alcohol, and eating a diet low in fruits and vegetables or high in salted, smoked, or nitrate-preserved foods may increase your risk
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection of the stomach. H. pylori is a bacterium that infects the lining of the stomach and causes chronic inflammation and ulcers.
Certain health conditions including chronic gastritis, pernicious anemia, gastric polyps, intestinal metaplasia, and prior stomach surgery.

Work-related exposure due to coal mining, nickel refining, and rubber and timber processing and asbestos exposure.

 In more advanced cancer, you may have:
Discomfort in the upper or middle part of the abdomen.
Blood in the stool (which appears as black, tarry stools).
Vomiting or vomiting blood.
Weight loss.
Pain or bloating in the stomach after eating.
Weakness or fatigue associated with mild anemia (a deficiency in red blood cells).
Some treatments:
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is the use of drugs to destroy cancer cells, usually by stopping the cancer cells’ ability to grow and divide. Chemotherapy is given by a medical oncologist, a doctor who specializes in treating cancer with medication.

Systemic chemotherapy is delivered through the bloodstream to reach cancer cells throughout the body. Common ways to give chemotherapy include an intravenous (IV) tube placed into a vein using a needle or in a pill or capsule that is swallowed (orally). A chemotherapy regimen (schedule) usually consists of a specific number of cycles given over a set period of time. A patient may receive one drug at a time or combinations of different drugs at the same time.
The side effects of chemotherapy depend on the individual and the dose used, but they can include fatigue, risk of infection, nausea and vomiting, hair loss, loss of appetite, and diarrhea. These side effects usually go away once treatment is finished.

Targeted therapy
Targeted therapy is a treatment that targets the cancer’s specific genes, proteins, or the tissue environment that contributes to cancer growth and survival. This type of treatment blocks the growth and spread of cancer cells while limiting damage to healthy cells.
Recent studies show that not all tumors have the same targets. To find the most effective treatment, your doctor may run tests to identify the genes, proteins, and other factors in your tumor. As a result, doctors can better match each patient with the most effective treatment whenever possible. In addition, many research studies are taking place now to find out more about specific molecular targets and new treatments directed at them. Learn more about targeted treatments.
A patient with later-stage cancer whose stomach tumor has too much of the protein HER2, called HER2-positive cancer, may benefit from receiving trastuzumab (Herceptin) with chemotherapy.
Talk with your doctor about possible side effects for a specific medication and how they can be managed.

Getting care for symptoms and side effects
Cancer and its treatment often cause side effects. In addition to treatment to slow, stop, or eliminate the cancer, an important part of cancer care is relieving a person’s symptoms and side effects. This approach is called palliative or supportive care, and it includes supporting the patient with his or her physical, emotional, and social needs.

Palliative care can help a person at any stage of illness. People often receive treatment for the cancer and treatment to ease side effects at the same time. In fact, patients who receive both often have less severe symptoms, better quality of life, and report they are more satisfied with treatment.

Palliative treatments vary widely and often include medication, nutritional changes, relaxation techniques, and other therapies. You may also receive palliative treatments similar to those meant to eliminate the cancer, such as chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation therapy. Talk with your doctor about the goals of each treatment in your treatment plan.

Before treatment begins, talk with your health care team about the possible side effects of your specific treatment plan and supportive care options. And during and after treatment, be sure to tell your doctor or another health care team member if you are experiencing a problem so it is addressed as quickly as possible. Learn more about palliative care.

Metastatic stomach cancer
If cancer has spread to another location in the body, it is called metastatic cancer (stage IV in the Stages section).

Patients with this diagnosis are encouraged to talk with doctors who are experienced in treating this stage of cancer, because there can be different opinions about the best treatment plan. Learn more about seeking a second opinion before starting treatment, so you are comfortable with the treatment plan chosen. This discussion may include clinical trials.

OverSleeping

Have you ever feel that you are really tired and sleepy even when you didn't do much activities in a day?

 Or you always feel like you don't have enough sleep even you already sleep more than 8 hours a day?

Well, you might be have a potential to be the sleeping beauty on fairy tale, or in medical terms call Oversleeping.

Here is the information that I've got from many resources :

Oversleeping means the conditions that make you sleep longer or later than one intended. The amount of sleep you need varies significantly over the course of your lifetime. It depends on your age and activity level as well as your general health and lifestyle habits. For instance, during periods of stress or illness, you may feel an increased need for sleep. But although sleep needs differ over time and from person to person, experts typically recommend that adults should sleep between seven and nine hours each night.

There is another condition named sleep apnea, which is a breathing problem that causes people to stop breathing for short periods of time when they are sleeping. This in turn brings them out of their deep sleep cycle for several times throughout the course of a night which leads to an increased need for sleep.

There is some method that could help you to stop oversleeping :

1. Reset your body clock.
You can change your sleeping pattern by simply going to bed at the same time every night and getting up at the same time every morning.
Set an a alarm clock for an early hour, eferably leaving enough time to prepare for the day without being rushed. Eventually, your body will naturally and habitually wake up at this time, cooperatively productive with falling asleep as well.

2. Tell yourself that you will wake up on time.
This may sound simplistic but you need to make a decision that you won't oversleep, so that this decision enters your subconscious mind and becomes a choice to get up on time.

3. Find a reason to get up on time every day.
Find something you'd like to be doing and make the time to add it in first thing in the morning, even if this means an earlier bedtime.

4. Reduce your level of hours spent sleeping gradually.
If you have been sleeping 11 hours and you want to get down to 8 hours of sleep per night, do this in increments over periods such as a week.

5. Don't overwork yourself.
Take short breaks when necessary, organize your workload, and go outside for fresh air if you start to feel tired.

6. Get some sunshine every day.
This will help to regulate your sleep cycle because the sun sets your body clock.

7. Exercise.
It's not only good for you, but studies have shown it helps to regulate sleep cycles as well, and it boosts your mood and lifts your energy, more reasons to help you to seek less sleep.
Hopefully this informations are work for you :)

Star Without Iron Inspires Galactic Archaeology

The most metal-poor star ever found is helping astronomers learn about the early universe in which it formed.

Just last month, astronomers announced that the star SDSS J001820.5-093939.2 showed signs of being spawned by early supernovae. As evidence, they noted that it has only 1/300th of the sun's iron, and a distinctive pattern of deficient odd-numbered elements compared to those next to them on the periodic table.

While that research was taking place, a star with orders of magnitude less iron was found, bolstering the study of the first stars—a field that is sometimes refered to as “galactic archeology.”
The early universe lacked elements heavier than lithium. Most elements further along the periodic table have been produced in supernovae and then mixed into subsequent generations of stars. The concentrations of these elements reveal a lot about the explosions that preceded them. Iron is commonly used as a shorthand measure for heavier elements in general.

So to discover a star that has no measurable iron spectral lines at all was truly a surprise. The iron of SMSS J031300.36-670839.3 cannot be more than one ten-millionth of that of the sun. This is a hundredth the concentration of the previous record-breaking star. "We received the news of the most iron-poor star with a great excitement," says Ken'ichi Nomoto of the University of Tokyo, "since this star may be the oldest fossil record and may elucidate the unknown nature of the first stars."

"The impact of stars on the surrounding environment depends critically on their masses when they were born," says team leader Miho N. Ishigaki, also of Tokyo University. "However, direct observational constraints of the first stars' masses are not available since most of them likely died out a long, long time ago."

Although SMSS J031300.36-670839.3 has almost no iron or calcium, it does have quite a lot of carbon. Ishigaki and Nomoto modeled the sort of supernova explosion required to leave the surrounding region with plenty of carbon but little else.

In The Astrophysical Journal, they propose that a star with between 25 and 40 times the mass of the sun exploded in a highly asymmetric fashion, with a huge jet expelling the contents of the star's core in such a way that these elements fell back into the remnant black hole. On the other hand, the outer layers of the star were pushed out in all directions, enriching the surrounding gasses and becoming incorporated into stars such as SMSS J031300.36-670839.3.

"If such supernovae are actually possible," Nomoto says, "the result supports the theoretical prediction that the first stars could be typical massive stars rather than monster-like objects with masses more than several hundred times that of the sun."

There is great debate as to whether or not the first stars were much larger than anything that can exist in the universe today. While his work suggests that may not have always been the case, Ishigaki acknowledges there may have been a range of star sizes at the time

The dangers of consuming excessive supplements

 

The following health problems that arise when you are consuming too much vitamin supplements, as reported by Magforwomen.
Cause health problems

Vitamins and minerals in foods are absorbed by the body naturally. But if there is a vitamin supplement that is too excessive, the body can reject it. Vitamins A, D, E, and K are stored in the body and gradually can cause harmful side effects, such as nausea, cramps, diarrhea, hair loss, fatigue, and mild nerve damage.

Dangerous when consumed with drug
Some vitamin supplements will react with other drugs that leads to severe consequences. If you are taking any medicine diabetes or kidney disease, vitamin supplements may not be a good choice when it is consumed at the same time. Therefore, before taking any vitamin supplements, you should consult a doctor.

Cause side effects
If you are consuming too much vitamin supplements every day, then your chances of experiencing side effects that can be much higher. It is proven that long-term high-dose vitamin C may cause kidney stones, calcium supplements can cause dry mouth, urinary problems or make you nauseous. In addition, vitamin E supplements can increase the risk of bleeding, so that people who are taking blood thinning drugs should be very careful.

Likely to contain toxins
According to new research, mostly vitamin supplements contain many harmful contaminants, including heavy metals, chemicals, even vitamin supplements. This can cause a variety of health problems, ranging from mild to severe, such as heart attacks and cancer.

Benefits Of Honey

 

1. honey for energy sources
In the past, athletes of ancient Greece and the Romans drank honey before and after a match as a remedy for stamina and restorer of energy. Honey is known for centuries as fuel the sportsmen because honey contains sugar that is quickly absorbed by the digestive system so honey is a source of instant energy.  in the world of sports honey given before the game and as a substitute for carbohydrates used during exercise.

2. Honey is as effective as glucose

Research results issued a health journals mention the levels of glycemic index (GI size to measure the negative impact blood sugar in the food) is low in honey slows the absorption of sugar in the blood resulting in more healthy digestive system and ensures the availability of carbohydrate during exercise. In the meantime, the nutrition Laboratory at the University of Memphis States that honey is as effective as glucose carbohydrate replacement during the warm-up.

3. honey for wound Healer
In the world of Greece and Roman society treatment pioneered the use of honey to treat nasal congestion while the ancient Egyptians became the pioneers of the utilization of honey to treat wounds. They made ointments from honey to treat burns and cuts from sharps puncture.

4. Honey as an antibiotic
After thousands of years of use, the benefits of honey as medicine cuts revealed scientifically. Honey works as a natural antibiotic that overcome deadly bacteria. Honey is very acidic so it is not suitable for the growth and proliferation of bacteria. Honey produces hydrogen peroxide which is an anti septic is incredible. The process of osmosis in honey eradicate bacteria viscosity honey contains water produces a little osmosis process absorbs water from the bacteria in wounds and Burns will look, not a sponge absorbs water. Honey draining bacteria so that bacteria are difficult to grow.

5. honey to kill germs
Nutrient content is outstanding among other free amino acids in honey is able to help cure the disease. Honey contains antibiotic substances useful for defeating the germs of infectious pathogens cause virus. Follow the ancient Egyptians after a study to discover the scientific facts, honey ointment for cuts now in production in Australia.
