Bee Propolis

Tuesday, November 3, 2009

Whenever we go to work, make a trip to the supermarket, or just step outside to smell the roses, we risk picking up germs and bringing them back to the nest. It’s darn near impossible to avoid. 

The same goes for bees. As tens of thousands of bees traipse in and out of the hive each day, they pick up germs along the way and take them back to the colony. Thanks to a sticky brown substance called propolis, however, bees keep the insides of their hives germ-free. 

Bee propolis is the resin that bees collect from the buds and wounds of trees and other plants and mix with beeswax. In warm weather, propolis is sticky and soft and can be used to fill holes or spread over surfaces like a shellac. In cool weather, the propolis hardens and becomes brittle. The bees use it to caulk, seal, line, and strengthen the hive, but they also use it to ward off contamination and germs in the hive. That’s because propolis, also known as Russian penicillin, has antibacterial properties. 

It’s this ability to fight bacteria that makes it an intriguing supplement for humans. The use of propolis as medicine dates back to the time of Aristotle, about 350 b.c.

The Greeks used propolis for abscesses, while the Assyrians used it to heal wounds and tumors, according to Steve Nenninger, N.D., a naturopathic doctor in New York City. 

The Egyptians used it for mummification—and so do bees, says Theodore Cherbuliez, M.D., a physician in Scarsdale, New York, and president of the American Apitherapy Society, a nonprofit organization that advances the investigation of the healing use of products from the beehive. If a mouse crawls into the hive for warmth in the winter, bees will sting it to death. Then, since they can’t physically remove the mouse, they will mummify it with propolis to protect the health of the hive. "Imagine the inside of a beehive, says Dr. Cherbuliez. "It’s hot, humid, and an ideal milieu to grow bacteria on that dead mouse. Propolis prevents this from happening." 

Proponents today use propolis to treat a variety of illnesses, including colds, flu, and sore throats; skin problems; wounds and bruises; stomach ulcers; burns; hemorrhoids; gum disease; high blood pressure; bad breath; and tonsillitis. They also promote it for boosting immunity. But even the strongest supporters rely on stories of healing, rather than on statistical studies, when they claim that it’s a nutritional supplement. No carefully controlled studies exist to back these claims. 

There are more than 300 components in propolis, including bio flavonoids, says Dr. Cherbuliez. Because propolis comes from a variety of plants, the amount and type of these components can vary by season and region. 

Collecting propolis for human use is an arduous task. To get the purest product, beekeepers place small inserts into the hives. To bees, the inserts look like cracks. Thinking that their hive needs repair, the bees fill the inserts with propolis. Propolis can also be scraped out of the hive, but this yields an inferior product that may contain unwanted by-products. 

Bee propolis is available in tablets, throat lozenges, chewable tablets with vitamin C, cough syrup, toothpaste, mouthwash, skin lotions, lipstick, throat spray, salve, and tincture. It’s best to buy propolis from a supplement manufacturer that specializes in bee products.

Green Tea The Alternative Remedies

Green tea the alternative remedies is not new to people living in the eastern countries. Green tea is one of the popular drinks in eastern culture especially for people in rural area in beside traditional tea. Green tea is a type of tea made solely with the leaves of Camellia sinensis that has undergone minimal oxidation during processing.

Green tea is palest in color, generally light green or yellow and after the tea leaves are picked, the green tea leaves, they undergo lightly process to prevent some natural changes from taking place such as auto –oxidation catalyzed by enzymes present in the freshly plucked leaves. If allow this oxidation would convert the tea progress to Oolong and then the black tea. Light steaming will prevents this oxidation thus preserved the natural antioxidants in the leaves, this result is green tea.

Green tea originates from China and has become associated with many cultures in Asia from Japan to the Middle East. Green tea has become more widespread in the West, where black tea is traditionally consumed. Many varieties of green tea have been created in countries where it is grown. These varieties can differ substantially due to variable growing conditions, processing and harvesting time.
Green tea become popular in the West after scientific research in both Asia and the west is providing hard evidence for the health benefits long associated with drinking green tea. For example, in 1994 the Journal of the National Cancer Institute published the results of an epidemiological study indicating that drinking green tea reduced the risk of esophageal cancer in Chinese men and women by nearly sixty percent.

University of Purdue researchers recently concluded that a compound in green tea inhibits the growth of cancer cells. There is also research indicating that drinking green tea lowers total cholesterol levels, as well as improving the ratio of good (HDL) cholesterol to bad (LDL) cholesterol.

Green tea can be used as the alternative remedies for infection, cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, high cholesterol levels, cardiovascular disease and impaired immune function. The ability of green tea act as alternative remedies is in the fact that it is rich in catechin polyphenols, particularly epigallocatechin gallate. Epigallocatechin gallate is a powerful anti-oxidant besides inhibiting the growth of cancer cells, it kills cancer cells without harming healthy tissue. It has also been effective in lowering LDL cholesterol levels, and inhibiting the abnormal formation of blood clots.

The latter takes on added importance when you consider that thrombosis (the formation of abnormal blood clots) is the leading cause of heart attacks and stroke. Drink Green tea also is good for healthy teeth and gums because the ability green tea to help reduce symptoms of periodontal disease may be due to the presence of the antioxidant catechin.

Previous research has demonstrated antioxidants' ability to reduce inflammation in the body, and the indicators of periodontal disease measured in this study, PD, CAL and BOP, suggest the existence of an inflammatory response to periodontal bacteria in the mouth. By interfering with the body's inflammatory response to periodontal bacteria, green tea may actually help promote periodontal health, and ward off further disease.

Periodontal disease is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects the gums and bone supporting the teeth, and has been associated with the progression of other diseases such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes.

Periodontists believe that maintaining healthy gums is absolutely critical to maintaining a healthy body," says Dr. David Cochran, DDS, PhD, President of the AAP and Chair of the Department of Periodontics at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio. "That is why it is so important to find simple ways to boost periodontal health, such as regularly drinking green tea – something already known to possess certain health-related benefits."

Thus try green tea today and feel the different .

Wonders of Honey Bees

Friday, October 30, 2009

Ever imagined magic honey bees? Apparently these animals are stored in so many miracles.

These bees make honey storage in a hexagonal shape. Where this form is the most effective form for storage of honey when compared with other geometric gentuk.

Many researchers suggest that honey bees use the form that it is possible for them to save the maximum amount of honey, but with the use of the material making up the least.

Mathematicians made amazingly amazed by the magic of the honey bee bees since calculations very carefully. Besides that, the way of communication between the bees is very difficult to believe, where the workers after finding the food sources of nectar flowers for making honey flew straight into the nest. Then the worker-bees to tell other bees the angle and distance of food source from the nest with a special dance body and wings. The other worker bees take a hint and can identify where the food sources and can find it without difficulty.

Wonders of the other bees is how when they build nests. Worker bees start to build the cells where the honey from the corners of a different, and so on until at last they meet in the middle and after the work was over, did not seem the incongruity or patchy in these cells. In this modern era, human beings will not be able to make the perfect design of this building without a complex geometric calculations and software support, but the bees do it very easily.

Does magic other honey bees? honey bees are capable of producing ten times more than they need, why? So that people can benefit from the drug-containing honey for human beings. For Muslims would often hear about the bees and the translation as follows: From inside them comes a drink (honey) of varying colors, inside there is healing for mankind. Verily in this is really a sign (the greatness of your Lord) for people who think. (Surat an-Nahl, 16: 69)

Is the magic of the honey bees produce honey? Honey is one source of food which God provided for man through these tiny insects, which consists of several sugar molecules such as glucose and fructose and minerals like magnesium, potassium, potassium, sodium, chlorine, sulfur, iron and phosphate. One also contains vitamins B1, B2, C, B6 and B3 that composition changes according to the quality of nectar and pollen that the bees consumed, and also contain copper, iodine and zinc in small quantities, as well as several types of hormones. So it is not surprising when the honey is "healing for mankind".

Miracle of scientific facts and properties of honey bees has been confirmed by scientists who met at the World Conference Apikultur (World Apiculture Conference) held on 20-26 September 1993 in China. Where the conference was discussed treatment using ingredients derived from honey.

American scientists say that honey, royal jelly, pollen and propolis (bee resin) can treat various diseases. A researcher, a doctor from Romania, said that he tried to use honey to treat cataracts, and 2002 of 2094 patients recovered completely. Polish doctors also said the conference was that the resin bee (bee resin) can help cure many diseases such as hemorrhoids, skin diseases, gynecological diseases and other diseases.

BREAST CANCER THERAPY AND HERBAL
Cancer is the result of changes in cells that have abnormal growth and uncontrolled. Increasing the number of abnormal cells form lumps are usually called tumors or cancer. Not all tumors are cancerous. Cancerous tumor called a malignant tumor, whereas the non-cancerous tumors called benign. Benign tumors usually a lump of fat that encased in a bag-like container, benign tumor cells did not spread to other parts of the patient's body.

Through the blood stream or lymphatic system, often the tumor cells and the toxins they produce out of the herd and spread to other parts of the body. The cells are then spread will grow in a new place, which eventually form a malignant tumor cell pack or a new cancer. This process is called metastasis.

Breast cancer, including cancers among the most widely discussed because keganasannya which often ended in death.
Breast cancer will show kekhasannya in attack sufferers. This cancer Kedanasan demonstrated by attacking normal cells around it, especially the cells of the weak. Ajan cancer cells grow very rapidly, so that the patient will enlarge your breasts is not as usual.

While attacking normal cells surrounding the cancer also produce toxins and removing cancer cells from a broken parent. Toxins and cancer cells will spread with the flow of blood. Hence we often find cancers that grow in other places as a result metastasisnya. In severe cancer often occurs Indonesia pendarahan.Di number of breast cancer patients occupy the second level after cervical cancer.

Why someone has cancer, she said DO NOT KNOW
But medically it can be said that a person likely to get cancer because of carcinogens, immune and psychological aspects. That cancer cells constantly develop and can not die. That cancer cells can not return to normal (irreversible).
How to cure: by surgery, radiation and chemical therapy.
Opportunity recovered from cancer pain is relatively very small.
The symptoms that indicate the presence of Attack Cancer
general can be seen and felt:
1. Arising lump in the breast that can be touched by hand, more and more and more hardened lumps and irregular shape
2. The shape, size or weight of a breast change
3. Small lump arising under the armpit
4. Out of blood, pus, or fluid from the nipple dilute
5. Breast skin crinkled like an orange peel
6. Shape or direction of nipple changes, such as depressed nipples into

Cancer as Abnormal cells
Breast cancer cells arise as a result of abnormal cells formed on the breast with uncontrolled speed and irregular. These cells is the result of gene mutations with changes in shape, size and function, as the cells of our bodies the original.

This gene mutation is triggered by the presence of a foreign substance into our body, including food preservatives, MSG, radioactive, oxidants, or carcinogenic properties produced by the body's own naturally. But the latter is very rare because the body naturally neutralizes carcinogenic substances produced by the body.

Together with the flow of blood and lymph flow, cancer cells and the toxins they produce can spread throughout the body such as bone, lung, and liver by the patient unconscious. Therefore not surprising that in breast cancer patients found a lump in the armpit or bump other nodes. Even appears also in liver cancer and lung cancer as metastasisnya. Patients often cough that never healed or prolonged shortness of breath.

When we are given by the doctor tested positive for cancer, the first reaction is fear appears extraordinary and desperate, especially if the cancer is already in an advanced stage. We recommend that excessive fear of this should be avoided, because this fear can be debilitating psychologically we are finally able to lower the body's immune or immunitas resources that naturally exist in the body. Resignation and began to understand the following cancer treatments who want to do, would be very helpful in the treatment of this cancer.

Prevention
Breast cancer can be prevented by:
1. Avoid using a bra that is too tight for a long time
2. Avoid smoking and consuming lots of alcohol
3. Perform breast self-examination, every month
4. Avoid too much exposed to x-rays or radiation types other
5. Keep your health by consuming fruits and vegetables fresh. We recommend that you frequently consume soy and processed products, such as tofu, tempeh, and soy milk, because soy contains estrogen Phyto, namely genistein, which is beneficial to reduce the risk of breast cancer
6. Perform regular exercise
7. Avoid eating too many high fat foods
8. Handle stress well, such as through relaxation and meditation
9. Eat turmeric lalap puti (see mango) about two finger joints every day
Sense of tremendous pain in cancer is one of prolonged suffering that must be borne by cancer patients. The handling of this pain, in the modern medical world it is one of the most difficult problems to overcome. From observation, the difficulty of handling the problem of pain is caused by the subjective and psychological factors. Besides that some drugs used to overcome the pain can cause drug dependence and trigger atherogenic disease.

The most at risk of breast cancer disease, namely:
1. If the family have breast cancer
2. The first got my period at a very young age, or late experience manepause
3. Never menyusi children
4. Overweight
5. Never have children
6. Never received hormone therapy
7. Never received radiation to the breast

The results of the study, found a slight decrease in risk of breast cancer in pre-menopausal women who breastfeed their children the longest.
The material is thought Trigger Cancer.
Trigger cancer basically NOT KNOW for sure, but there are ingredients suspected as a trigger cancer. The material is called carcinogenic.

The materials included in the group of carcinogens, namely:
1. Senayawa chemicals, such as aflatoxin B1, ethionine, saccarin, asbestos, nickel, chrom, arsenic, charcoal, Tarr, smoke cigarettes, and oral contraceptives.
2. Physical factors, such as solar radiation, x-rays, nuclear, and radionukleide.
3. Viruses, such as RNA viruses (fam. retroviruses), DNA virus (papilloma virus, Adeno virus, herpes virus), EB virus
4. Chronic irritation and chronic inflammation may develop into cancer
5. Genetic weakness cells in the body, so as to facilitate the emergence of cancer.

Stage Breast Cancer
In breast cancer is early stage (0, 1 and 2) and advanced stage (3 and 4). Stage 0 means there are cancer cells in the mammary gland layer or saluransusu but has not spread into surrounding fatty tissue. In stage 1 and 2, the cancer has spread from the mammary glands or milk ducts to nearby tissue around it. In stage 2 cancer sometimes has started to interfere with the lymph nodes. Stage 3 breast cancer may be spelled in local advanced stage, where the tumor diameter of more than two inches, and often has spread to the lymph nodes near the breast. In stage 4 metastatic cancer, meaning the cancer has spread from the breast and lymph nodes around the armpit, to other parts of the body such as bone, liver, lung and brain.
Breast cancer can swell and burst, when it's so rotten and rancid smell coming out of breasts. Another complaint is the shortness of breath due to cancer of lung pressure.

Prohibition or Pantangan Breast Cancer Patients.
If we had developed breast cancer, we should avoid or reduce the intake of some types of food consumption. Because there are times when certain foods or beverages will spur the growth of abnormal cells, including breast cancer. There is such a substance containing that if the growth will stimulate the enlargement diasup cancer. There is also a result of containing carcinogenic preservation process. And some are, if consumed will reduce the effects of the drug in the body of work.

Some foods and beverages is recommended to avoid or reduce their consumption:
1. Bean sprouts
2. MSG
3. Tape
4. Es
5. Chili
6. Reduce salt
7. Longan
8. Alcohol
9. Pineapple
10. Chicory
11. Red meat
12. Cigarettes
13. Jackfruit
14. Durian
15. Soft drinks
16. Kangkung
17. Salted fish

The recommendations in Breast Cancer Treatment.
There are a few recommended foods to be consumed on a regular basis. Consumption may only be one type of material or a mixture of several ingredients. If we are attacked by breast cancer, it is recommended to drink the juice of ingredients below, do one glass twice a day.
1. Carrots
2. Radish
3. Plantain
4. Carambola sweet
5. Celery
6. Broccoli
7. Cabbage
8. Apple
9. Garlic

Soy milk drink half a glass, do two times a day, or 100 grams of consumption always tempeh every day.
Green Vegetables variety Cancer Prevention:
1. Beans
2. Cassava leaves
3. Bean
4. Papaya leaf
According to Drs. Vivi K. Tjahjadi, from Karyasari, Obot for breast cancer is sambiloto stew, white turmeric, grass and taro pearl mice, drunk in the morning afternoon and evening. This potion if taken 12 days, gradually the pain will fade away and the lump is also lost. The breasts will return as before without any pain. With a drink this potion chance of breast cancer was cured.

Healthy eating

Tuesday, October 20, 2009

We, as Indonesian citizens are accustomed to eating three times a day, with rice as a "menu compulsory". Can not be said if no rice to eat. Eat without rice is classified as a snack, no more.

The problem is, whether such a pattern of healthy eating?

A few days ago I was chatting with a friend from Bandung Rukyat Center (Institute of Ala treatment Prophet), and the results of these conversations, quite surprised me:

Diet three times a day with rice as the main menu was not well.

Why? Because the supply of carbohydrates to be excessive. If judging long-term effects, blood sugar levels will be high if the accustomed way.
No wonder many people with diabetes in Indonesia.

Eating healthier: Five times a day.
     * Breakfast is bread and milk. Just a little carbohydrate. Avoid a full meal in the morning because it would make drowsy. If you eat well in the morning, the energy which should instead be used for activities up to your stomach.
     * 3 hours after breakfast, eat a light snack such as bread. Every 3 hours, the stomach must feel hungry
     * Lunch, please complete meal. Rice, side dishes and vegetables. But always remember: Stop before you are full!
     * In the afternoon, Ba'da ashar, food - snacks again. Afternoon snack such as compote, green bean porridge, or maybe fruit - fruit could be an option.
     * Evening, a full meal. Try dinner 3 hours of your bedtime, so before bed to digest the food has been completed and not interfere with your sleep.
If you notice, there is the pattern: Eat every 3 hours, because the stomach has been feeling hungry every 3 hours, but levels are associated with time.

Postscript:
If you want to eat fruit, eat fruit before you eat a full meal. Indonesian people used to eat the fruit - fruit after a meal of rice, and this pattern was not good. Eat fruit first before a heavy meal. When I asked this to the food chemist, was indeed no scientific reason: Fruit should be the first to eat from the fruit mikronutrisi go in first.

Well, I hope helpful!

Noni fruit

Noni fruit Know
This tree-shaped plant with 4-8 cm high. Stem woody, round, rough skin, branching monopoidal. Single leaf, oval, pointed tip and base. Length of 10-40 cm. Compound interest, the form of knob, stemmed, stamens 5. Fruit knob, irregular surface, fleshy, 5-10 cm long, yellowish green. Noni fruit grows on chalky soil height of 1.000m above sea level.

Gynecology and efficacy
Scopoletin, these compounds serve regulate blood pressure. When high blood pressure, help lower scopoletin. Conversely if blood pressure is low, he will increase it. In addition to antibacterial indicated, these compounds also regulate hormone serotonin, which helps reduce levels of anxiety and depression.

Morindin, this substance efficacious in improving the body's defense system. In addition to the above two substances, pace also contains gum, malate acid, citric acid, and antiseptic compounds.

Research Results
Based on the research, there are about 61 more potent compounds contained mengkudu. They work synergistically and mysterious. For example, some compounds that play an active role in the treatment of certain diseases, it does not mean only the compounds that contribute to it. But it is supported also by the other compounds. That's why eating a compound extracted Khasiatnya be any different than if we drank the juice mengkudu overall.

Say in treating blood pressure. Mengkudu juice can increase blood pressure for people with low blood but on the other side of the blood can lower blood pressure for hypertension. This phenomenon is not going to happen to mengkudu extracted fruit.

According to research dr. Mona Harrison of the faculty of Medicine, University of Bolton, the consumption of fruit juice will help provide mengkudu xeronine hormone. Xeronine of fruit mengkudu contradictory work. In people with high blood pressure, lowering blood pressure xeronin be normal. In people with low blood pressure, fruits mengkudu increase blood blood pressure. In other words, mengkudu juice serves as adaptogen, balancing function of body cells.

Lemon pulp mengkudu provide very significant change in heart, namely reducing the strength of heart muscle contraction, heart rate slowing down and increasing the number of heart coronary blood flow per minute.

Preclinical tests on cats showed limb hipotensif influence, namely reducing the blood flow resistance (vasodilatation) limb blood vessels but also have a cat hipertensif effect. research by A.M. Djojosugito et al. (1975-1976) showed, in the juice mengkudu there are at least two components are opposite.

Noni fruit juice also contains scopoletin. One of its functions, clean sediment arteroklerosis causes the blood vessels. Thus, a flexible blood vessels so the heart pumps blood work is not so heavy.
noni fruit has the effect of lowering blood glucose levels of white mice. Mechanism of hypoglycemic work through the barriers in intestinal absorption of glucose and increase insulin secretion.

So the fruit of work noni fruit indirectly lower blood sugar levels. But increase the presence of insulin that regulates blood sugar.
Noni fruit also contains antiseptic and antibacterial pathogen of Eschericia colli, Salmonella and Staphylococcus aureus.

Anne Hirazu, I in his doctoral thesis to prove that noni fruit contain gum arabic mature and various types of glucose that has the power and stimulate antitumor immunity. Aerta contain the active compounds stimulate the pineal gland serotonin and endorphins issue (morphine body). So mengkudu often used in drug therapy.

Overcoming high blood pressure

Monday, October 19, 2009

High blood pressure or hypertension has become a common disease for many people today, especially for those who live in urban areas. High blood pressure or hypertension be a risk factor for stroke, heart attack, and kidney failure. And the worst of this disease is death. Therefore, if you can, this disease must be prevented. If you have high blood pressure, you can control this disease. How to prevent and control high blood pressure or hypertension?

Blood Pressure
Before discussing about high blood pressure or hypertension, you should first know about blood pressure. When you perform a physical examination or clinical examination to a doctor, there is usually a special tool used by doctors to check blood pressure. Tools to check the blood pressure is also known sphigmomanometer with Tensimeter. There are digital and there Tensimeter Tensimeter mercury is also still commonly used for clinical examination.

Checking Blood Pressure
When checking blood pressure, there are two numbers that are usually referred to as 120/80. What is these numbers? Systolic
The first number (120) is the systolic blood pressure, the pressure when the heart beats or beats (systole). Often called the pressure on.
Diastolic
The first number (90) is diastolic blood pressure, the pressure when your heart rest in between while pumping. Often referred to under the pressure.

The doctor will perform blood pressure checks by having you sit or lie down, because it was the best position to measure blood pressure. Then the doctor will usually be binding on the air bag on the right arm on the arm unless there are injuries. After that, blood pressure measurements were taken. The difference between systolic and diastolic pressure is called pulse pressure.

What is blood pressure? Blood pressure is blood pressure on the arteries when the blood vessels in the heart to pump by all members of the human body. Blood pressure is created by taking two sizes and usually there are two numbers to be called by the doctor. For example doctors call 140-90, then the meaning is 140/90 mmHg. The first number (140) shows the upward pressure due to pulsation of the arteries when the heart or heart beat or beating, and is called the systolic pressure or the pressure is often called. The second number (90) shows the pressure when your heart rest in between pumping, and is called diastolic pressure, or often also referred under pressure.

Once you know your blood pressure, would you want to know whether your blood pressure, including low, normal or high. The following blood pressure classification based on the number of measurements with Tensimeter for systolic and diastolic blood pressure:

Blood pressure systolic (first number) diastolic (second number)
Low blood or hypotension Under 90 Under 60
Normal 90 to 120 60 to 80
Pre-hypertension from 120 to 140 80 to 90
High blood pressure or hypertension (stage 1) 140 to 160 90 to 100
High blood pressure or hypertension (stage 2 / dangerous) Above 160 Above 100

Why Blood Pressure Rising?
What causes blood pressure to rise? As an illustration, if you're watering the garden with a hose. If you press the end of the hose, the water will come out faster and faster. That's because the water pressure increases when the hose is pressed. Also, if you zoom in tap water, the flow of water through the hose will become faster due to the increased flow of water.

The same thing happens with your blood. If your blood vessels constrict, the blood pressure inside the blood vessels will increase. In addition, if the amount of increased blood flow, blood pressure will also increase.

Causes of High Blood
There are several things that can cause a person has high blood pressure. There are factors causing high blood pressure you can not control. There is also that you can control that can handle high blood diseases. Some of these factors include:

Heredity
This factor can not you control. If someone has a parent or relative who has high blood pressure, then it is likely he suffered from high blood pressure is greater. Statistics show that the problem of high blood pressure is higher in identical twins than identical twins are not. One study showed that there is evidence derived genes for high blood pressure problems.
Age
This factor can not you control. Research shows that as age increases a person's blood pressure will rise. You can not expect that your blood pressure will be the same as young as you get older. But you can not pass control to the normal upper limit.
Salt
These factors can you control. Salt can increase blood pressure rapidly in some people, especially for diabetics, people with mild hypertension, people with old age, and those who were black.
Cholesterol
These factors can you control. Excess fat in your blood, can cause cholesterol deposits in blood vessel walls. This can make blood vessels constrict and blood pressure consequently increases. Take control of your cholesterol as early as possible. For tips on controlling cholesterol, please see the following articles: cholesterol.
Obesity / Overweight
These factors can you control. People who weigh over 30 percent of ideal body weight, are more likely to suffer high blood pressure.
Stress
These factors can you control. Stress and emotional conditions that are unstable can also trigger high blood pressure.
Cigarettes
These factors can you control. Smoking also can increase blood pressure was high. Smoking habits may increase the risk of diabetes, heart attack and stroke. Therefore, a habit that continued smoking as having high blood pressure, is a very dangerous combination that will trigger diseases related to heart and blood.
Caffeine
These factors can you control. Caffeine found in coffee, tea or cola drinks can cause increased blood pressure.
Alcohol
These factors can you control. Excessive alcohol consumption also causes high blood pressure.
Poor Sports
These factors can you control. Lack of exercise and move can cause blood pressure increases in the body. Regular exercise can lower your high blood pressure but do not do heavy exercise if you suffer from high blood pressure.

Preventing and Overcoming High Blood
To prevent high blood for you who still have normal blood pressure or high blood overcome for those who already have high blood pressure, then the following practical suggestions you can do:

Reduce consumption of salt in your diet. If you already suffer from high blood pressure you should avoid foods that contain salt.
Consumption of foods containing potassium, magnesium and calcium. Potassium, magnesium and calcium can reduce high blood pressure.
Reduce drinking alcoholic beverages or food. If you suffer from high blood pressure, should avoid excessive alcohol consumption. For men who suffer from hypertension, the amount of alcohol is permitted a maximum of 30 ml of alcohol per day while women 15 ml per day.
Regular exercise can lower high blood pressure. If you suffer from high blood pressure, choose light exercise such as walking, cycling, running relaxed, and swimming. Apply for 30 to 45 minutes a day 3 times a week.
Eat vegetables and fruits are high in fiber such as green vegetables, bananas, tomatoes, carrots, melons, and oranges.
Run anti-stress therapy to reduce stress and you are able to control your emotions.
Quitting smoking also plays a major role to reduce high blood pressure or hypertension.
Control your cholesterol level.
Take control of your diabetes.
Avoid drugs that can increase blood pressure. Consult your doctor if you are receiving treatment for certain diseases, to ask for drugs that do not increase blood pressure.

High Blood can be controlled
High blood pressure or hypertension is not a disease that can not be eliminated. You can control and prevent high blood pressure.

How to Prevent Breast Cancer By Nature

How to prevent breast cancer naturally be more secure. The following are tips to prevent breast cancer by nature:

1. Exercise regularly.
Research shows that in line with increased activity, the risk of breast cancer will be reduced. Exercising will lower estrogen levels produced by the body to reduce the risk of breast cancer.

2. Reduce fat.
You must have often heard the clash of opinion on the relationship between breast cancer with fatty foods. Some studies show that low-fat diet help prevent breast cancer. Other studies show that there is no relationship between fat and breast cancer .. The latest research states that the more important is the type of fat is not the amount of fat consumed.
Type of fat that trigger breast cancer is the saturated fat in meat, butter, foods that contain full-cream milk (whole-milk dairy foods) and fatty acids in margarine.
As for the type of fat that helps prevent breast cancer is the unsaturated fats in olive oil and omega-3 in salmon and other cold water fish.
Saturated fats in meat and dairy products and fatty acids in margarine increases estrogen levels in the blood, whereas unsaturated fats in olive oil and omega-3 in fish does not cause an increase in blood estrogen levels.

3.Bila you eat meat, not cooked too well.
Apart from saturated fats found in meat, the way you cook the meat will affect the risk of breast cancer. Meats cooked / baked produce carcinogenic compounds (amino heterocyclic). The longer cooked, the more these compounds are formed. Heterocyclic Amino most numerous in the layers of grilled meat outside (skin) and charred black.

4.Makan more fruits and vegetables.
The more fruits and vegetables you eat, the less risk for all cancers, including breast cancer.
Foods from plants contain anti-oxidants are high, such as vitamins A, C, E and the mineral selenium, which can prevent cell damage that could be causing cancer. National Cancer Institute (NCI) recommends to consume fruits and vegetables at least 5 (five) times a day. But to avoid fruits and vegetables that contain lots of fat, like fried potatoes or banana cream pie.

5. Eat anti-oxidant supplements.
Supplements can not replace fruits and vegetables, but an anti-oxidant formula could be a food additive that can prevent breast cancer.

6. Eat more fiber.
In addition to functioning as anti-oxidants, fruits and vegetables also contain lots of fiber. Fiber foods will bind estrogen in the digestive tract, so the levels in the blood is reduced.

7. Eat more tofu and soy-containing foods.
Foods derived from soy contains plant estrogens (Fito-estrogen). Like tamoxifen, this compound similar to estrogen the body, but much weaker. Fito-estrogen receptor bound to the same cells with estrogen the body, tied it out of breast cells, thereby reducing the effects of breast cancer triggers.
In addition to blocking estrogen the body to reach the cell receptor, soy-containing foods also accelerate the expenditure of estrogen from the body.

8. Eat more beans.
In addition to soy, Fito-estrogen is also present in species other nuts.

9. Avoid alcohol.
Many studies have shown that the more alcohol consumed, the risk of breast cancer increased because of alcohol increases estrogen levels in the blood.

10. Watch your weight.
Weight gain per pound after the age of 18 years will increase the risk of breast cancer. This is because in line with increased body fat, the hormone estrogen as a trigger in the blood of breast cancer will increase.

11. Avoid xeno-Estrogens.
Xeno-estrogen means estrogen that comes from outside the body.
Women taking estrogen from outside the body especially from oestrogenic hormone residues found in meat and residues pesitisida oestrogenic. Suspected xeno-estrogens may increase blood levels of estrogen thereby increasing the risk of breast cancer.
The best way to avoid xeno-estrogen is to reduce the consumption of meat, poultry (chickens, ducks) and dairy products (whole-milk dairy products).
But you do not need to worry about eating lots of fruits and vegetables, because the effect of anti-oxidants and fiber content more than pestisidanya residual effects.

12. Bask in the sun.
The increasing incidence of skin cancer (malignant melanoma) make us afraid of the sun. But a little sunlight can help prevent breast cancer, because at the time the sun on the skin, the body make vitamin D. Vitamin D helps absorb calcium breast tissue, thereby reducing the risk of breast cancer. In order to get the sun for 20 minutes / day, it is recommended to walk under the sun in the afternoon or evening. But if you want to get calcium or vitamin D from the sun is not, you can try to consume food supplements.

13. Do not smoke.
Smoking increases the risk of breast cancer.

14. Breastfeeding / breastmilk to give your child
For reasons still unclear, breastfeeding associated with reduced risk of breast cancer before menopause.

15. Consider again before using hormone replacement therapy (Hormone Replacement Therapy = HRT).
There are several good reasons to do HRT after menopause, which reduces the risk of heart disease, osteoporosis and Alzheimer's disease. But HRT will increase the risk of breast cancer. Talk with your doctor and consider the risks that may arise, because most women a higher risk for heart disease than breast cancer.

One more thing that can affect the risk of breast cancer is stressful.
Medical literature states that stress can boost the risk of breast cancer. But research on this is still controversial. But it never hurts to start how to overcome stress in your life through meditasai, yoga, tai chi, gardening or other leisure activities.

Know the types of stroke

Stroke was divided into two types of ischemic stroke and stroke hemorragik. In ischemic stroke, blood flow to the brain stops because atherosclerosis (cholesterol buildup in blood vessel walls) or a blood clot that has clogged the blood vessels to the brain. Most of the patients or 83% for this type of stroke.

In hemorragik stroke, broken blood vessels that block normal blood flow and blood seeped into an area in the brain and damage it. Nearly 70 percent of cases of Acute hemorrhagic strokes occur in people with hypertension.

In ischemic stroke, blockage can occur along the arterial route leading to the brain. Blood to the brain is supplied by two arteria the internal carotid and two vertebral arteries. These arteries are branches of the aortic arch heart.

An atheroma (fatty deposits) may form in the carotid arteries causing reduced blood flow. This situation is very serious because each carotid artery normally provides blood to most of the brain. Fat deposition could also separated from the artery walls and flows in the blood, clogging arteries and smaller.

Carotid arteries and the vertebral artery and its ramifications could be blocked due to blood clots that come from elsewhere, such as the heart or a valve. This kind of stroke called a cerebral embolism (embolism = occlusion, cerebral blood vessels of the brain =) The most frequently occurs in patients who had heart surgery and people with heart valve abnormalities or heart rhythm disturbances (especially atrial fibrillation).

Fat emboli rarely cause stroke. Fat emboli formed when fat from a broken bone marrow released into the bloodstream and eventually joined in an artery.

Stroke can also occur when an infection causes inflammation or narrowing of blood vessels leading to the brain. The drugs (eg cocaine and amphetamines) can also narrow the blood vessels in the brain and cause strokes.

Blood pressure drops suddenly can cause reduced blood flow to the brain, which usually causes a person to faint. Stroke can occur if the low blood pressure is very heavy and chronic. This happens if one gets a lot of blood loss due to injury or surgery, heart attack or abnormal heart rhythms.

For example, at the beginning of the rainy season many people have flu. Conversely, why some people do not get? One of the most common reason given was the difference in the system imunnya. Someone with a strong immune function can be protected from infection.

But a more precise answer is that the interference caused a balance of overlapping symptoms. Many of the causes behind a person terinfeksinya, among others, due to fatigue, bad nutrition, stress and other factors that led to the decline in immune function. By knowing the benefits of food supplements to help achieve that balance back, will help to answer questions at the beginning of this section.

Joseph Pizzorno, ND explained that the relatively easy to remove symptomatic disease, but for basic imbalance or disruption is still there, it would appear syndrome, another syndrome which then must be removed also. Many diseases have multiple causes, for example, are easily recognizable enfeksi symptoms and triggers (bacteria or viruses). Although the trigger was gone, for example with antibiotics is the basis of the therapy system infections in general, as long as the body's immune system has not improved, other infections are likely to happen. In addition, side effects of antibiotic use can destroy intestinal flora balance.

New approach based on holistic treatment efforts to improve the basic system of health supporting the body to function effectively, in order to ensure good health. In this way we prevent the disease before it occurs.

Overcoming Allergy Drugs

Are Like eating fruit simalakama, drug allergies are very troublesome. If not taken, the disease is not cured and more rampant, if taken will cause allergies.
Research on drug allergies is often done. Some studies reveal an unwanted reaction in the use of drugs occurred about two percent of the number of patients taking the drug. Allergic drug reactions are usually mild.
But there were also to life-threatening. Allergy drugs have many differences in each person. For example in patients udem larynx (swollen), anfilaktik shock, and Stecvvens-Johnson syndrome. Udem larynx or suffering shortness of breath, if you have drug allergies will feel like someone choking.
In shock patients anfilaktik decrease blood pressure and in people with Stevens-Johnson syndrome will feel the skin and mucous membrane changes shape. Death due to allergies, not only in developing countries, also in developed countries which supermaju health facilities. Even in European countries still occur because of allergy drug deaths.
Therefore, the European monitoring network established drug allergy recording all events and provide information on drug allergies are common.
"Allergy medication usually occurs because the body is very sensitive that a person to overreact to the drugs used. The body tried to reject the drug, but the rejection reaction is very much to the detriment of his own body. Reactions that can include itching, shortness of breath, decreased blood pressure, skin reactions accompanied by abnormalities in the gastrointestinal mucous membrane, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, respiratory and genitals, "says skin specialist Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital (RSCM), Dr. Ahmad Abdillah.
Abdillah said, the drug increased the risk of allergies in people who have an allergy or talent in medical terms is called atopy. To avoid the occurrence of drug allergies, need cooperation between patient and doctor. The patient must bring his experience to use for this drug, whether a particular drug makes the body causing allergy or suspected allergy.
"It would be nice if every person has a written record of the use of drugs and what happens to her body. It would be convenient if a drug treatment when needed," he said.
Drugs suspected allergens should be avoided and if necessary, choose a safer drug. Although can also occur, although not often, a previously not allergic to a drug could later also be allergic to the medicine.
"Avoid taking the drug if it is not necessary. Vitamin allegedly safe, though it may cause allergies, not because of the active substance vitamins, but because the additives in the manufacture of drugs such as dyes in it," the doctor called minus the glasses.
Patients who experience an unwanted reaction because the use of drugs, should be immediately to the doctor to get help. To stop the allergy medicine, there is only one way is to stop using the drug, and overcome the situation arising from allergies. Currently drugs circulating in the community millions.
Each year hundreds of new drugs introduced to the public. Before the drug was allowed in circulation, must go through rigorous testing and Drug Administration Food (BPOM). Of drugs given permission supply useful and safe. However, there are no useful drugs and a hundred percent safe.
Further Abdillah added Dr. Achmad, an allergic reaction to the drug appeared unexpectedly. Someone who was not anything particular medication, at one time could have been itching all over her body after taking the drug.
"Allergy emergence period could be fast, can be very slow, it all depends on the body's reaction," he said.
Similarly, severity of allergic reactions. One may immediately shocked into unconsciousness shortly after taking medicine that made her allergic. While others just itching, a few moments and then disappeared itch. For the layman, allergic reactions are considered poisoned.
This is different. Allergic reaction is excessive body's reaction to certain ingredients (in this case the drug), while poisoning (intoxication) is a reaction that occurs because of excessive use of drugs to exceed limits based on pharmacological toksis.
In the modern era like now, it's easy medical record. Can use any device, word processors, spreadsheets, databases or other devices such as PIM (Personal Information Manager, with a few modifications) or special devices such as Medibank. If the doctor does not give a history of allergy medication record, patient entitled to ask for it.
While some parties argue that the case of allergic equated with malpractice, especially if it resulted in severe effects such as Steven Johnson Syndrome or death due to fatal eg. Apart from the constraints related to drug allergies, the doctors are properly equipped (private practice or working in the medical care institutions) with medical record device.
At least use the pieces of the status of the patient to a drug allergy can be avoided. One patient allergic to any medications, Goddess Andika Pratama, was deeply shocked when he suffered because of drug allergy. Whereas previously admitted Goddess no problems with any drug consumed.
"I'm allergic to the medicine, recently only. Usually my skin itch immediately and the swelling when taking pain medication. It makes me come to the doctor and consult," said Dewi met in RSCM some time ago.
