Judging by Silicon Breast Implant Safety

2011-12-20T21:20:00.000-08:00

French Health Ministry said they would ask the women who perform breast augmentation with silicone implants to remove the implants and was likely to cause cancer.

Poly Implant Implant Prothese production (PIP) which is used in France, and probably also many other countries due to be exported, last year found using low-quality silicone gel material which is a carcinogen and is also prone to rupture.

"Production of PIP implants should be removed. All of the women who use these implants must meet their surgeon as soon as possible," said Valerie Pecresse government spokesman in an interview with French television.

The results of investigation of the French association of plastic surgeons in 2010 found the PIP implants rupture more easily than others and silicone implants are used not for medical use. Price implant is also the most expensive on the market.

Silicone breast implants were first introduced in 1962. Since then the safety of these implants continues studied.

In the 1980's the popularity of breast enlargement with implants increased rapidly, accompanied by health risks. Quite a few experts who claim a link between silicone gel with increased risk of immunological diseases such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, and other diseases.

Some women who wear silicone implants also reported their health symptoms disappeared after the implants removed. Some also choose to sue the manufacturer of implants for illnesses they suffered.

Because there is no scientific evidence that strongly about the safety of silicone implants, in 1992 the U.S. drug regulatory agency (FDA) stated that breast augmentation with silicone implants are only allowed in the women who perform breast reconstruction after breast cancer surgery.

Since then a 14-year-old woman who is only interested in raising breast using breast implants containing sterile saline or salt water.

New in 2006 the FDA declared silicone implants safe. The decision was based on research for 14 years found no association between this disease and silicone implants. Yet the FDA ordered two manufacturers of silicone implants to examine the security of its products to 10 years.

Silicone implants are basically fairly safe as long as the materials used in accordance with medical safety standards. What is prohibited is the injection of liquid silicone injected into the breast because it can lead to infection and difficult to lift.

Top 10 Work Trigger Depression

2011-12-20T18:28:00.000-08:00

Stress or depression is a common problem experienced by almost all workers, whether in the office there and in the field. Deborah Legge, PhD, a mental health counselor in Buffalo, New York, United States, reveals, there are several aspects that contribute to or exacerbate the stress on the job. One of them is uncertain working hours.

Of the many types of jobs, there are certain jobs which are very susceptible to stress and pressure. What job is it? Here is penjabarannya:

1. Special nurse elderly and young children

People who work as personal care providers are at the top as a group at risk for developing depression, which nearly reached 11 percent.

Christopher Willard, a clinical psychologist from Tufts University, said, "the nurse will stress more often meet people get sick and not enough positive support from patients who were treated," he said.

2. Waitress

4. Health-care workers

Doctors, nurses, therapists, and other health professionals are at-risk category of the type of work because of depression tend to have irregular working hours and have a great responsibility related to the safety of another person's life. "Every day they see the disease, trauma, and death, as well as dealing with family members of patients," said Willard.

5. Artists, "entertainer" and author

Workers in this field tend to have irregular income and working hours are not sure. Creative people may also have a higher risk of mood disorders (about 9 percent). "One thing more I look at the entertainment and arts worker is bipolar disorder (mood changes abruptly)," said Legge.

6. Teacher

Demands on teachers or teachers seem to be growing. "There are different pressures they receive from children, parents, and school-related compliance value. All the groups have different demands," said Willard.

7. Administrative staff

"Workers in this group generally are at the forefront and received many orders from all directions. However, they also are at the bottom in terms of control," said Legge.

In fact, they are also more likely to experience an unexpected day and not get the recognition related to all the work they do.

8. "Maintenance"

They must work with odd working hours, schedules varied, and often work the night shift. Even this group of workers often received little reward even though the work they are doing quite difficult, such as cleaning up other people.

"They are in the condition when subjected to the uncertainty of income, tremendous pressures and long working hours. This condition can make them experience high stress," said Legge.

Want Enough Fiber? Eat three servings of vegetables and two fruits

2011-12-15T00:24:00.000-08:00

To get any easier. Any kind of vegetables and fruits contain fiber. With the average body needs about 25 grams to 40 grams per day, eating three servings of vegetables and two servings of real fruit is enough.

"The amount is equivalent to 300 grams of vegetables at each meal and two stone fruits, it is sufficient to meet the needs of fiber," teaching Haryati, nutritionists Mediros Hospital, Central Jakarta.

True, each type of vegetable and fruits do have different fiber content. Watermelon contains 0.3 grams of fiber per 100 grams, 2 grams of red apples, starfruit 0.9 grams, 2.3 grams of green pear, 7.3 grams of red guava, and papaya 1.3 grams per 100 kg. As for vegetables, like kale, carrots, eggplant, cabbage, spinach, green beans, young jackfruit, papaya leaves, on average have 1.2 grams per 100 gram.

Fiber in vegetables and fruits is water-soluble fiber or soluble fiber. This fiber will be mixed with water and form a dense tissue such as agar-agar. The fiber is not soluble in water are called insoluble fiber.

Best source of whole grains, cereals, vegetables, and fruits are eaten with the skin and nuts. Insoluble fiber is hygroscopic, that is able to withstand 20 times the weight of water.

"It can prevent the digestion of water shortages and the resulting stool remains soft," said Haryati. Apart from vegetables and fruits, fiber can also be obtained from taking the supplements.

Fiber is known as instant fiber. It's known extra supplements are made from herbs that are rich in fiber, such as seaweed. However, experts are better advised to choose foods that are natural fibers, ie originating in vegetables and fruits. In addition contain no chemicals, fruit and vegetables was not merely contain fibers.

"But as well as other food components numb be beneficial for the body, such as vitamins and minerals," said Susianto, nutrition experts Indonesia Vegetarian Society. How, ready to eat lots of fiber?

Otoritas Barang Antik, Israel berhasil menyita kotak tua berusia 2000 tahun dengan ukiran pesan di permukaannya. Peristiwa itu terjadi 3 tahun lalu. Namun kotak tua itu ternyata berharga sebab ditengarai terkait dengan cerita mengenai kematian Yesus. "Di luar semua keraguan, pesan yang terukir di atas kotak tua itu otentik," kata Yuven Goren, arkeolog dari Tel Aviv University yang memimpin upaya otentifikasi kotak tua berbahan batu gamping dan berhiaskan ukiran bunga roset itu. Ukiran pesan di kotak tua itu menyebut nama salah satu imam besar yang bertanggungjawab dalam penyaliban Yesus, yakni Kayafas. Tulisan pesan itu sesuai publikasi Foxnews, Rabu (31/8/2011), "Miriam anak perempuan Yeshua putra Caiaphus (Kayafas), imam besar Maaizah dari Beit Imri." Goren menerangkan, Maaizah merupakan klan terakhir yang disebut dari 24 ordo imam besar dari periode gereja kedua. Sementara Beit Imri menurut Goren adalah tempat dimana klan tinggal sebelum menyebar ke Galilea pada tahun 70 AD sesuai riwayat dalam Kitab Talmud. Menurut Goren, kotak tua itu kemungkinan berasal dari komples pekuburan Lembah Elah, barat daya Yerusalem. Lokasi tersebut diketahui merupakan tempat legendaris dimana pertempuran Daud dan Goliath berlangsung. Beit Imri mungkin berada di lereng Gubung Hebron. Penemuan kotak tua dengan ukiran pesan ini bukan pertama kalinya. Pada tahun 2002, benda serupa pernah ditemukan namun akhirnya terungkap bahwa hanya hoax. Goren sendiri menekankan bahwa kotak tua yang diotentifikasi olehnya benar, ia mampu menerangkannya secara ilmiah. "Ketika batu terpendam selama ribuan tahun, ia dipengaruhi oleh lingkungan dan mempengaruhi lingkungannya," jelas Goren. Proses erosi, pengasaman, tumbuhnya bakteri, alga dan lumutr kerak, merupakan proses yang tak mungkin ditiru di lab. Penemuan kotak tua ini dipublikasikan di Israel Exploration Journal.

Colorectal cancer or cancer that attacks the colon and rectum cancer properties as other properties can be grown relatively quickly, or roots can infiltrate (infiltration) into other tissues and cause damage.

Although not yet known exactly what causes it, but a recent analysis showed a specific diet can reduce the risk of this cancer. Research shows a diet high in vitamin D may reduce colorectal cancer risk. The findings are reported in the Journal of Clinical Oncology.

In 18 studies involving more than 10,000 people, it is known that those who have higher vitamin D intake, the risk of colorectal cancer is 33 percent lower than the group that little intake of vitamin D. Meanwhile, the group who received the highest intake of vitamin D through supplements and food has 12 percent lower risk of colon cancer.

However, Dr. Huanlong Qin and colleagues from The Sixth People Hospital and Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Shanghai, said the findings are not entirely true, because the studies that analyze the relationship between vitamin D with colorectal cancer have not been many. "It needs additional studies to gain an understanding and a more precise estimate of the role of vitamin D in colorectal cancer carcinogenesis," he said.

Vitamin D has previously been associated with protection from various cancers, heart disease, diabetes and asthma. According to Qin, how to provide the beneficial effects of vitamin D is still poorly understood. However, some evidence suggests, to benefit the people may need more vitamin D.

He added that, although the mechanism is quite plausible biological relationship exists between vitamin D deficiency with an increased risk of colon cancer, but it remains to be investigated further.

Many men complain more and Masculinity

2011-07-06T00:06:00.000-07:00

Experts estimate that more than 100 men around the world also experienced sexual dysfunction. In the United States, 30 percent of men experience premature ejaculation, while in Indonesia, an estimated 20 percent of men who came to the clinic complaining of impotence juniors who completed more quickly. Why more men are now in trouble with the "macho?"

According to the dr. Andi Sugiarto, Sp.RM, from Citarum Pantiwilasa Hospital, Semarang, in many cases of premature ejaculation (ED), psychological factors are very influential. "Nowadays people are very high pressure, especially from work and social life. People also tend to be more anxious and hasty," he said in an online seminar to Overcome Premature Ejaculation (25 / 2).

Another factor to premature ejaculation is the low levels of serotonin (a substance that are on our nerve function who deliver the nerve impulses.) "Today the lack of factors that increase serotonin can also be caused by high consumption of foods containing preservatives," says dr.Andi.

In addition, the general number of people with diabetes mellitus and patients with neurological disorders are also more so that the frequency of premature ejaculation more often. As he got older, the physical factors (health problems) are becoming increasingly play a role. Meanwhile, in ED patients who were younger, usually caused by psychological factors.

Premature ejaculation can make a man feel disillusioned and low self-esteem because they can not satisfy your partner. "Especially in sex, older woman up her passion. How could satisfy a partner that has not anything been premature," he said.

Because the feeling of inferiority, according to dr.Andi consequently many men who feel lazy to have sex. If this lasts for a long time, not just ED, men also experience erectile problems. "Feeling depressed, he can not erect anymore," he said.

In addition to the drugs, ED can be treated with sex therapy and Kegel exercises. "Therapy should be done a man's sex with their partner. Starting from consultation to the therapy, the husband and wife must cooperate," he explained. The success of therapy will certainly improve the quality of life together.

Men Tend Voice in cheating

2011-07-04T00:18:00.001-07:00

Many people say, the physical character can not be used as a benchmark if a man is likely having an affair. Therefore, many men are quiet exterior impression, it also had an affair. However, recent studies it might be you make a handle for selecting men who could not easily tempted to cheat.

The study, published in the Journal of Evolutionary Psychology found that women tend to mark a man as cheaters if it has a deep voice. In the study, men were asked to make a sound by saying the vowels. Then, based on the voice, women were asked to choose which sounds most interesting and potentially cheating. From there found a picture of the man's voice and tendency to cheat.

How do we tell a swinger may not be rational, but according to a study conducted by Jill O'Connor from the Department of Psychology, Neuroscience, and Behaviour, McMaster University, Ontario, Canada, it is evolutionary. The theory is this: the deeper the voice, the higher the testosterone levels of men. Like the women who are entering the fertile period, so he looks more and more attractive in the eyes of the opposite sex. And it opens up opportunities for cheating.

But can we make this sound as a marker in the male "johns"? Do we also have always relied on these features?

"We're not saying that someone will cheat just because they have a deep voice; only, this observation supports our evolutionary hypothesis," said O'Connor. "We do not recommend changes in behavior just because the (research) is. People are not slaves of biology."

The opposite of the link between male voice and a tendency in the affair, the study also found that men are actually attracted to women who speak out loud.

Not because Most Sugar Diabetes

2011-06-27T00:44:00.000-07:00

The world is facing an explosion of people with diabetes. The most recent data says the figure reached 350 million people worldwide, far exceeding the predictions of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) which projected the year 2010 there are 285 million people worldwide who will become victims of diseases that can be claimed eyesight, and even death.

Although diabetes experts agree is the biggest health problem in the 21st century, in fact there are still many people who shrugged when asked about the possibility of suffering from this disease. In addition because the symptoms are not visible, not a few who still think the disease is caused by too much sweet food mengasup.

In fact, according to dr.Budiman Darmowidjojo, Sp.PD, diabetes mellitus is not related to overeating sugar. A person diagnosed with diabetes when the body does not produce enough insulin or does not use insulin properly there. "Not true if the disease is caused by overeating sugary foods," he said.

Factors causing the high number of sufferers is due to changes in a high-fat diet and physical inactivity. The linkage of this disease with sugar may stem from the fact diabetics must limit their sugar intake.

"That should actually be limited not just sugar, but the total calories because most of what we eat for energy will be converted into glucose. In diabetics, diet is not controlled glucose levels will increase," said a doctor from the Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism Department of Science Internal Medicine Faculty of medicine / RSCM Jakarta.

In a healthy person, glucose is automatically absorbed by the cells. Body to use insulin produced by pancreatic B cell receptor to open the cells so glucose can enter. However, in people who suffer from diabetes, insulin resistance occurs so that blood sugar can not enter.

Excess sugar is accumulated in the bloodstream and in the long term can cause complications. "Actually that's not dangerous high blood sugar, but the complications it brings," he added.

Complications of Diabetes is a disease that strikes silently but it will eventually be a disaster. Increasingly common disease that annually kills three million people around the world.

According dr.Budiman, cause of death in diabetic patients is not because the disease itself but its complications. "Nearly 40 percent died of heart disease, the remainder due to kidney failure, stroke, or cancer," explained the chairman of the Jakarta Diabetes Meeting to be held this coming November 2011.

Complications that may result from diabetes there is an acute, such as hypoglycemia (too low blood sugar) or hyperglycemia (blood sugar is too high), or chronic complications.

"Complications of chronic own there that affect large blood vessels such as coronary heart disease or stroke, or which affects the small blood vessels so that patients suffering from neurological disorders, kidney, impotence, or blindness," he explained.

Blood sugar levels are high, bright Budiman, would also disrupt the hormonal system so that the increased levels of certain hormones that lead to increased blood pressure. "Approximately 60-80 percent of diabetic patients suffer from hypertension," he said.

That's why it is important to check blood sugar levels rise to mawaspadai blood sugar, especially if the family history of anyone suffering from this disease, your age exceeds 40 years, suffering from obesity or showing symptoms of the disease.

Fix your diet

One way to avoid diabetes is to maintain body weight remained normal, exercising regularly, and improve your diet. This means eating a healthy diet that focuses on fruits and vegetables.

Research shows for every extra 40 grams of fat you eat in a day, the risk for diabetes has tripled. And if you already have diabetes, you are most likely to experience complications.

"This happens because body fat makes the cells resist insulin," said Frank Q. Nittal, MD, in a report published in the American Journal of Epidemiology.

Meanwhile, people with diabetes are advised to eat every four or five hours in small portions. "The important thing is to set the total calories," said Budiman. Nevertheless diabetics are still advised to be cautious in consuming sugar. The need for sweet foods that can be satisfied with low-calorie artificial sweetener.

Currently there are no drugs to treat diabetes. That's why care about yourself by maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including diet, exercise, rest and avoid stress. In people with diabetes had a healthy lifestyle can keep the blood sugar remains stable so that the disease can be controlled.

Patients with Alzheimer's, Beware of Antipsychotic Drugs

2011-06-23T21:39:00.000-07:00

USE Antipsychotic drugs are widely used to control behavioral and psychosocial disorders in people with Alzheimer's. However, the use of these drugs can cause side effects that exacerbate the cognitive abilities of patients. To that end, treatment should be done only to relieve psychotic disorders.

"The use of antipsychotic drugs in patients with Alzheimer's just to alleviate behavioral and psychosocial disorders," says psychiatrist from the Department of Psychiatry Faculty of Medicine, University of Indonesia (Faculty of medicine) Suryo Dharmono, when contacted Tuesday (1 / 4), in Jakarta.

Antipsychotic drugs are drugs that work on the regulation of neurotransmitter systems (such hormones on the brain) by blocking dopamine receptors or neurotransmitters in certain areas in the brain to dopamine levels stable. It aims to alleviate psychotic symptoms.

In the case of Alzheimer's, patients often experience behavioral and psychosocial disorders such as depressed, discouraged, withdrew from the social environment, anxiety, hallucinations and paranoia. "To control the disorder so as not to endanger themselves sufferers, need to be given antipsychotic drugs," said Suryo.

Giving the drug is situational or just relieve behavioral and psychosocial disorders, rather than settle for therapy. If taken long term, these drugs cause anticholinergic side effects, namely a decrease in cognitive function of patients. Side effects can be minimized with a new generation of antipsychotic drugs with anticholinergic levels low, he said.

Asthma Patients Avoid Fan

2011-06-06T15:22:00.000-07:00

Patients with asthma and dust allergy are advised not to sleep using a fan because it can cause a recurrence of asthma attacks.

"The fans make the dust and mites in the room continues to spin, eventually dust inhalation and cause coughing or asthma relapse. This can be a vicious circle," said dr.Iris Rengganis Sp.PD from the Department of Medicine Faculty of Medicine, University of Indonesia Ciptomangunkusumo Hospital (FKUI / RSCM) in the seminar titled 'Beware of Disease in transition season' in Jakarta (03/30/2011).

To cool the air in the room, Iris recommend the use of air conditioning or air-conditioning with temperature is not too cold. "Set the temperature around 25 degrees. At this temperature mites do not like it," he said.

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways and bronchial hipersensitivas accompanied to various stimulus. Patients with asthma should know and be aware of allergy triggers in order to avoid attacks.

"As long as there allergens, asthma will continue to arise. Therefore, recognize and avoid the originators," he explained.

In addition to dust mites, asthma sufferers are also sensitive to cold air, animal dander, cigarette smoke, and many more.

Freedom Coffee Prostate Cancer?

2011-05-20T15:48:00.000-07:00

Who says coffee bad for health? A study mentioned frequently consume coffee for men can reduce the risk of getting prostate cancer by 60%.

Researchers from the Harvard School of Public Health explains, men who consumed coffee as much as six cups or more per day will face 60% lower risk of esophageal cancer and 20% lower in the face of the formation of the type of prostate cancer compared with people who do not drink coffee.

Even just one to three glasses per day was associated with the risk 30% lower in the development of deadly prostate cancer.

"Not many studies have examined specifically the relationship of coffee consumption with the risk of deadly prostate cancer, the most important form of the disease prevented," said Wilson, a researcher in epidemiology at the Harvard School of Public Health, Boston, as quoted from News.yahoo.

Impact is the same whether the coffee was caffeinated or not, so the researchers suspect that lower risk can be associated with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits of coffee.

Prostate cancer is the most common form of cancer found in men in the U.S., but not always lethal.

Blood tests can detect cancer at an early stage, and the cancer can be categorized in what is known as the Gleason score the higher the score, the more likely the cancer spread.

There are 16 million survivors of prostate cancer worldwide, and one of six men in the United States will develop prostate cancer during their lives. Risk factors specifically associated with the Western diet, rich in fats, heredity, alcohol and exposure to chemicals.

For the study, Wilson's team collected 7911 American men who reported every four years how much coffee they drank from 1986 to 2008. During the study, a total of 5035 prostate cancer cases were reported, including 642 cases of death, or metastatic.

Lower risk seen in coffee drinkers remained there even after the researchers considered other factors that specifically encourages risk and more often seen in coffee drinkers compared to people who do not drink coffee, such as smoking and no exercise.

"This adds to evidence coffee does not seem dangerous," said Wilson.

4 Ways to Effective Avoid Heart Disease

2011-05-19T15:49:00.000-07:00

Pain of heart is the most sadistic killer. Every year, tens of millions of people worldwide die from this disease and there are millions of people convicted as new carriers. Unfortunately, most people do not know that heart disease is preventable through diet and natural settings.
Changes in diet can reduce the risk of heart attack up to 81 percent.

The experts from Europe who joined in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) in recent years to study the pattern and nutrient intake in 10 European countries. The research also develop ways or strategies to reduce risk of heart and blood vessel disease.

According to researcher and author of Your dietitian Healthy Weight Loss Plan, John Phillip, the results of various research shows that heart disease can be formed since the beginning of one's life and later developed into a deadly threat when they grow up. The good news is the risk of heart disease can be controlled and avoided by making simple changes in lifestyle and diet person.

EPIC Research published in the journal Archives of Internal Medicine suggests that a change in diet can reduce the risk of heart attack up to 81 percent. By setting the right diet, the risk of inflammation can be reduced and blood pressure under control.

The experts stressed four important factors that one can do in order to avoid the risk of heart disease:

1. Reduce foods containing refined carbohydrates, sugar, and grains.

Processed foods have now become the main menu every day. In fact, these foods contain simple carbohydrates that easily processed into glucose, causing blood sugar increase in a short time. This is the trigger of insulin resistance and cause a thickening of the endothelial lining of coronary vessels. It is recommended to gradually reduce your intake of types of bread, pasta, rice, sugary foods, and all foods made from wheat or corn.

2. Limit the Omega-6 vegetable oils.

Vegetable oil or vegetable oil is relatively stable at room temperature and used in nearly all the roasting and processing of food to add flavor and make it more durable. According to experts, excessive consumption of vegetable oil can also trigger the release of chemicals that increase oxidative stress and trigger damage to the vascular system. But avoid the use of vegetable oils for cooking and limit eating fried foods.

3. Do not forget the Omega-3 fatty acids

Modern diets are almost never incorporate healthy foods that contain Omega-3 fatty acids, which in fact never been part of human diet for centuries. According to experts, the ideal ratio between fatty acid content of Omega-6 and Omega-3 in the 1:1 diet.

The experts also agree that most people in Europe today mengasup diet with a ratio of 20:1. As a result, this phenomenon causes an imbalance and trigger a systemic inflammation. Advice from the experts, enter the types of fish, like tuna, salmon, and sardines, nuts, and grains to balance the ratio of your fat intake or by taking supplements of fish oil.

4. Avoid oxidative stress

Akitivitas normal body such as breathing, eating, and moving can generate free radicals that damage the genetic structure and cause bad cholesterol (LDL) oxidation. We can not prevent this process fully. However, we can mute it by way of fresh vegetables, fruits, berries of the species, and certain supplements to reduce the effects of free radicals on heart health and other organs.

Alternatives to Soy Nuts Komak

2011-05-17T08:46:00.000-07:00

Peanut komak (lablab purpureus, sweet L) have the potential to be used as an alternative food soybean prices soared today, with not much different nutrient content and lower prices.

"Appearances bean komak not much different from soy. Even compared to local soybean, peanut komak softer texture," said researchers at the Faculty of Agricultural Technology, Bogor Agricultural University (IPB), Ir Arif Hartoyo, MSI in Bogor as quoted by Antara on Thursday (17 / 1).

"Productivity komak range 6-10 tons of nuts per hectare, much higher than soy which on average only 1.3 tons per hectare," he added.

The high productivity is because commodity komak bean is a tropical plant, while soybean is a subtropical plant. "The productivity of soybeans, even if encouraged will not be far from the numbers 2-3 tons per hectare," he said.

Researchers at the Department of Food Science and Technology has been trying to manufacture peanut komak know. The result know more gentle, but it feels a bit "unpleasant" (less tasty). However, to eliminate the sense of "unpleasant", the beans can be treated komak heating or with a bit of sense, he said.

As the material making out, can be used composition of 20 percent and 80 percent soybean komak to know is not easily destroyed. As for tempeh, can be used 100 percent peanut komak.

"In terms of nutrient content, the protein in soy is still higher. But it has the advantage komak nuts because it proved capable of lowering cholesterol and blood sugar," he said.

According to him, applications for food such as peanut komak for the manufacture of tofu, tempeh, soy sauce, composite flour, protein concentrates or isolates, as well as functional food ingredients. Komak bean can be grown in marginal lands that do not require a lot of production inputs such as fertilizer and water, and more resistant to pests. Planting beans komak on marginal lands will actually improve the soil structure because the roots of this plant nitrogen binding elements.

Currently komak bean widely planted in the area of East Java and West Nusa Tenggara (NTB), although only as intercropped plants. "There has been no large-scale planting. But for intercropping alone, peanut production could reach 1.5 komak tons per hectare," said Arif Hartoyo.

During this time many people take advantage komak beans for vegetables. In NTB, the community has always been consumed tempeh from komak nut ingredients. While in China, this commodity is used as a mixture of powerful drugs because they contain substances aprodisiak.

"Certainly not the origin of the selected food is filling but should be healthy and support the nutritional needs," said Prof.Dr.Made Astawan, a lecturer in the Department of Food Science and Technology, Bogor Agricultural University, in an event organized by Soyjoy in Jakarta (9 / 12 .)Snacks such as chocolate, wafers, biscuits, nuts or chips may be seen "light" but according to Madeleine, these foods actually contain glycemic index (GI), high or rapid increase in blood sugar levels. "Usually the calorie content too high so they can make fast weight rose as well," he explained.Conversely, foods with low GI levels are less starch and high fiber content will be metabolized slowly so that your body creates a feeling full longer. Foods with low GI, such as fruits and vegetables.However, not all good food with low GI. "There are also foods that are low GI but high fat, such as chocolate. This type of food should be avoided if you do not want her weight go up," said Made.Actually quite a lot of kinds of snacks that are not only delicious but also can make body weight did not increase.

Complications Increase Risk of Stroke Death

2011-05-08T15:22:00.000-07:00

Stroke is one of the highest cause of death. Even if the patient survives, there may be some complications of stroke repetition or diseases that can reduce the life expectancy of patients up to two years.

"Various studies have shown post-stroke complications will increase the risk of death and disability," said lead researcher Dr.Keun-Sik Hong, a neurologist from South Korea. In his research, he has shown a link between complications of disease with reduced life expectancy pasisen.

In their study, Hong and his team followed the health of 1200 patients with stroke for several years. Patients' health was evaluated using the method of measuring disability-adjusted life-year (DALY) made by WHO to calculate the burden of deaths from disease or disability. By using the DALY, Hong can calculate the approximate age of the lost due to stroke or its complications.

In general, the incidence of post-stroke complications, such as pneumococcal disease or stroke repetition, would reduce the life expectancy of patients up to two years. Meanwhile, in stroke patients who are not exposed to complications, life expectancy can be up to three to five years.

As many as 34 percent of patients had complications within four weeks post stroke. This complication such as stroke are deteriorate, pneumonia (pneumonia), urinary tract infections, seizures, or heart attack.

The best way to increase life expectancy, says Hong, is to prevent the stroke itself. Risk factors for stroke such as diabetes mellitus, excessive alcohol consumption, lack of exercise, elevated levels of cholesterol, hypertension, smoking, and obesity. The possibility of stroke will increase with the presence of these factors.

In the United States there are approximately five million people who have had a stroke, including four out of five American families. Meanwhile, in Asia particularly in Indonesia, every year is estimated 500,000 people suffered a stroke, about 2.5 percent or 250,000 people died and the rest mild or severe disability.

According dr.Zakiudin Munasir, Sp.A (K), an allergist and immunologist, in addition to seeing the genetic history and clinical symptoms such as itchy skin and red or diarrhea, there are several ways you can do to make the diagnosis of cow's milk allergy.

"It could be done skin prick tests for specific IgE test. However, this test is more effective for children aged 3 years and over," he said.

If the positive test results, should be avoidance or abstinence from food containing milk protein. If the results come back negative then can be given foods containing milk protein.

According to the recommendations of Indonesian Pediatric Association, the exclusively breastfed infants, nursing mothers are advised to restrict protein cow's milk and its derivatives. For that mother, consider taking calcium supplements.

In infants who are not breastfed, if positive allergic to cow's milk, formula milk is the main choice of hypoallergenic milk or milk and infant formula terhidrolisat extensive amino acid.

Enjoying Life as Hemophilia Patients

2011-04-14T20:04:00.000-07:00

Everyone will want to be born in perfect condition. However, it is not experienced by Teddy (35), one patient blood disorder hemophilia. Teddy has been sentenced to suffer with hemophilia since she was eight months old.

Suspicion is already in infancy, in which when the umbilical cord off. Teddy takes a longer time to recover, unlike normal babies in general. Although not worried about his illness, Teddy knew very well that he should always take care of myself.

Keeping yourself means not doing something that could be bad for her body. Because, for someone who is suffering from hemophilia, the body will be extremely vulnerable to collisions and injuries at all.

"My life as a normal child yes. Time to play, play. Play with friends, both at school and at home. There are times when I relapsed disease. Like there was a recurrence of bleeding at the ankle. Haemorrhage was under the skin, it feels pain, so the blood out of baseball, "he explained.

Section joints are the areas most susceptible to bleeding. In addition to the ankle, joint bleeding occurs most often in the knees, elbows, hands, ankles, and hips. Frequent bleeding at Teddy's ankle was no longer make a steady and a little bit limp. But it all does not reduce the morale and determination to continue to survive.

As time passed, friends and teachers Teddy finally found out that he mendeita hemophilia. But there was no change in attitude and differential treatment it receives either from friends or school. "The treatment my friends that in principle the same. Nah discrimination, baseball dikucilin, remained normal," he added.

Hemophilia is a bleeding disorder, in which the body does not have any blood clotting factors. In the book Mayo Clinic Family Health Book is mentioned, hemophilia consists of three types, namely hemophilia A, B, and C.

Common types of hemophilia are hemophilia A (classic hemophilia), caused by lack of clotting factor VIII. The rest, if not suffering from hemophilia A, usually suffering from hemophilia B (Christmas disease), caused by lack of clotting factor IX. While hemophilia C, is better known because of lack of factor XI, are rarely found.

Prof. Dr. MZ Moeslichan SpA (K) of the Association of Indonesian Hemophilia Society said, someone who has been affected by hemophilia must undergo lifelong treatment. The cost of treatment for this disease is still quite expensive. No wonder so many patients complain hemophiliac care costs, including Teddy, who was found suffering from hemophilia type B.

Once a week, usually a patient with hemophilia will have the treatment FFP (fresh frozen plasma). FFP injection, according to Teddy, desperately needed in order to move normally.

"I am much FFP transfused 750 cc of blood bags. In it there are drugs called plasma. Each bag varies his cc. There are 120, 200, if In total there are about five pockets," he said.

One bag FPP is currently sold at around USD 200,000 and were not coupled with other tools. The high cost of treatment makes Teddy tried to get public health insurance facilities from the government. This is not an easy matter to get this facility.

"To be able to get Gakin, socializing with my first doctor's care at the clinic afterwards. Puskesmas ask for proof that I am suffering from hemophilia. I shall take it that so many medical records to doctors in the clinic," said Teddy, who said he had difficulty when the clinic not believe that he suffered from hemophilia.

Never despair, and always open to bring Teddy on the perfection of life as a hemophiliac. In the midst of his shortcomings, Teddy is able to prove that everyone has equal opportunity in any way.

Today, Teddy worked as an employee at a hotel in Jakarta. All colleagues in the office already knows that he is suffering haemophilia. Not much different like when in school, friendly treatment was received from colleagues and the company where she worked.

"In the workplace, after I know that my love of hemophilia, they are still welcome as normal," he said.

Mention of a life partner, Teddy claimed never to have difficulty securing means. Since the beginning of courtship the first time, he did not cover his status as persons with hemophilia. To his wife, Teddy opens everything about herself and her illness.

"At the time I love books about hemophilia. She (wife) read and understand. So, I do not have the story at length, he had understood," he said.

Three years of courtship, barriers and a number of problems still exist. Teddy admitted relationship with her lover had experienced little resistance from women.

"If the women's families had no statement, ie whether the disease will spread? What could have offspring? Maybe because they do not know," he said.

Teddy said he initially had doubts and fear that do not get the blessing. But with the often met and talked a lot about hemophilia, parents of his future wife can know and understand the condition.

Now, her life feels complete. Work and life has got friends. Although must continue to live with the shadow of her illness, Teddy never feel annoyed or disappointed. What happened this time he considers as a normal thing and not something to be feared or avoided.

Bad Stress Effects on Memory

2011-04-08T08:27:00.000-07:00

Do not allow yourself to always experience stress. Long-term effects it can reduce the memory level at old age. Researchers from Edinburgh University in England shows how the two receptors in the brains of old, reacted to the hormone cortisol, the stress triggers.

The condition was associated with memory decline in old time. The study found that one of the receptors of the brain will be in active state if low cortisol levels, and to help the working memory. However, when levels of the hormone cortisol is too high, it will lead to a second receptor, which activates the brain triggers a memory disorders.

This study attempts to explain why long-term stress, can damage brain memory storage on a daily basis. Although in some ways, a little stress can help people remember emotional memories better.

"While we know that stress hormones affect memory, this study explains how the receptor can alter the function of either a bad memory in old age," said Dr. Joyce Yau, one of the researchers, was quoted as saying by the Daily Mail.

According to Yau, with a known mechanism in the brain, affecting memory with age, can help to find a way to prevent memory decline. The team is now looking for new chemical compound that can close the 11beta-HSD1 enzyme.

Enzymes are known to produce stress hormones within the cell. They hope the results of this study can be used for drug development, to slow memory loss in older people.

Most dialysis patients are usually people with diabetes and high blood followed," said Saksono Harbuwono Disease Specialist Division of Metabolic and Endocrine University of Indonesia in talk show about diabetes Women's Health Expo on Friday (05/02/2010).

Just to illustrate, in American studies, from 100 percent of dialysis patients, about 43 percent of whom are diabetics, 28 percent of people with high blood pressure, and the rest for other diseases.

Another complication is the disruption of the heart. Approximately 75-80 percent of deaths in diabetes because of abnormalities of the heart and blood vessels. This is because the incidence of fatty deposits in blood vessels so that blood flow is hampered. If it occurs in coronary arteries, heart attack can occur. In addition, complications can happen to other blood vessels in the eye (blindness), genitals, legs, and brain.

About Diabetes

Diabetes is not curable but can be controlled blood sugar levels so that various complications can be prevented. Key diabetes management is to keep blood sugar levels. How to keep blood sugar levels and blood pressure among others, proper diet, regular exercise, and consumption of drugs if necessary.

Dante said, type II diabetes is increasingly becoming a serious problem. The number of sufferers is growing. In Jakarta, for example, in 1980 the prevalence of diabetes by 2.8 percent and in 2005 to 12.1 percent.
