The study has been published in a journal of neurology, which is more than a decade of research involving more than 37.000 men who like to eat chocolate.

Measures of male chocolate eaten in the study is equivalent to one-third cup filled with chocolate chips.

This is not the first study to indicate the benefits of chocolate on the human cardiovascular health.

Previously many other studies show chocolate aficionados have lower risk of system-related diseases such as heart disease, stroke and high blood pressure.

"What these chocolate fan to reduce the risk of stroke is the flavonoid content in it," said Susanna Larsson, a researcher from the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, who is also head of the research involved.

"But if the piles are not terrified, half body surgery done under local anesthesia.

"Usually the surgery using a laser to reduce the pain and the blood," he said when met at his office recently.

Dr. Jonah adding that there was also a physician using staples or staples or rubber band to tie the hemorrhoid to stop the blood flow.

This technique will cause hemorrhoids off on their own within two to four weeks.

"Hemorrhoids or hemorrhoidal disease is a disease that occurs in the anus. It occurs when the blood vessels and swelling around the anus (rectum and anus)," he said.

According to her, hemorrhoids can strike anyone, regardless of age and gender.

"Normally, the early signs occur during straining, especially when constipated stools cause cell swelling superimposed anal canal," he said.

Back pain at the young age

credit science photo library

QUESTION:

DOCTOR, I always have back pain on reaching age 25 this year. Do I have osteoporosis. Is this bone disease can be cured?



ANSWER:

Back pain is a common problem in all ages except children. Virtually every person will experience at least once in their lifetime. If the problem persists, they may experience symptoms should immediately consult a doctor. At least they have to get the doctor's opinion the cause of back pain experienced.

Sometimes back pain can be caused by common problems such as lifting, posture while working at the office and so on. When lifting things, many are often bent down, but they should bend the legs to carry the required motion. The office workers sitting at the table and facing the computer for hours without stretching.

SeriusWalaupun serious diseases such as cancer and spinal infections, is rare in young women, but other diseases can also cause back pain such as coral reefs should be considered. Patients should not be dependent on painkillers because it can cause side effects in the long run, such as damage to the kidneys and the risk of gastric pain.

Osteoporosis is rare in young women without other causes that may be experienced at the same time. Factors that may increase the risk for developing osteoporosis are among the professional athletes that use energy at optimum levels such as marathon runners, women lack of exercise and a low calcium diet, women who are too skinny and have a small body frame of bones, women with a family history of osteoporosis , women who smoke, have trouble absorbing the nutrients, have low estrogen levels may be due to premature menopause (menopause at a younger age), chemotherapy and suffer from a lack of vitamin D.

PerubahanSakit back is generally divided into two groups. Nearly 90 per cent of cases are in the 'function' of back pain without detectable changes in X-ray or scan Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Many of these patients were women working or married. Most of them work and sit in a chair for too long. As I have been informed that inappropriate sitting posture contribute to back pain.

Another feature of this group is their lack of exercise or recreational activities because of busy with office work and home. They are not physically and mentally healthy. Fatigue, stress and pressure somehow make them feel lower back pain more than the average person. Work lifting heavy objects that rarely do trigger symptoms of severe back pain because of the wrong technique and physical weakness.

In the meantime, another 10 per cent suffer from natural back pain with changes detected in X-Ray and MRI. Most of them suffer from the problem of deteriorating spinal cartilage structure known as degenerative disk disease;, and sometimes slip disc (intervertebral disc prolapse).

Disk is cartilage between spinal segments. It works as a shock absorber and allows movement (mobility) of the spine. It declined with the age of the disk loses moisture. This can be detected by MRI. It should be noted that not all of the degenerate disc causing back pain. This is because the slip disk occurs when the disk decline, prominent and pressing on the spinal cord. The signs are back pain accompanied by pain head to toe and below the knees.

From my observation, insha-Allah you experienced back pain are not serious, because most likely due to back pain from the first batch of 'function'. Of course, this pain can be cured. It is not due to osteoporosis. Nice to see a specialist bone (orthopedic) for further examination and appropriate course of treatment can be given.

Fatty liver diet

Most cases of fatty liver due to obesity and body shape like an apple shape. credit Utusan

Did you know that the liver function is for storing energy, vitamins and minerals? Liver or liver also produces proteins, and remove waste from the body through urine, perspiration and so forth.

In fact issued by the American Liver Foundation, liver disease attack about one out of 10 Americans. In Malaysia, we find the figure of 20 people suffering from heart related diseases.

To ensure that we are suffering from heart or not, people are advised to undergo screening, and then followed by surveillance, if it can be detected early so treatment can begin earlier.

World Hepatitis Day this month, the President of Malaysian Liver Foundation (YPM), Prof Tan Sri Datuk Seri Dr. Mohd. Ismail Merican advised Malaysians to eat a balanced diet and high fiber.

Eat less fat, calories and be sure to have the ideal body weight.

This is because a healthy lifestyle is the cause of liver disease such as hepatitis and fatty liver.

Hepatitis

According to Dr. Mohd. Ismail, Sabah, Sarawak and Kelantan is a state that had the most number of people with hepatitis that may expose them to liver cancer. Liver cancer also is among the five most common cancer among men in Malaysia.

He said they are part of the 2.5 million people in this country who was diagnosed with the disease are mostly men.

"Based on statistics released by the foundation, Sabah and Sarawak had the highest rate in the country for people with hepatitis B virus and hepatitis A. Kelantan for five to eight per cent of Malaysians are carriers of Hepatitis B.

Dietary and lifestyle factors to be among the main causes of the disease increased among the population in the state, "he said.

The disease affects about 350 million people around the world. According to statistics, men are more people suffering from liver cancer and it may be due less concerned about hygiene and healthy eating is not as women.

The rest, they are found to be suffering due to infectious disease from mother to child, the sharing of drug needles, blood, mostly involving hepatitis B.

Dr. Mohd. Ismail said he seeks to intensify awareness campaigns about the disease can be life threatening in the country and also targeted to schools to enable the detection and treatment should be performed earlier.

In addition to hepatitis, YPM also stressed the danger of fatty liver is often associated with liver disease such as hepatitis.

What is fatty liver? The disease is caused by obesity and diabetes, but teenagers as young as 15 years are also at risk for heart disease as a result of both these problems.

Dr. Mohd. Ismail explained, also known as fatty liver NFLD (Non-Alcoholics fatty liver disease).

It is a condition in which a large amount of saturated fat membranes accumulate in liver cells through the process of steatosis.

Fatty liver is divided into two main groups, the normal fatty liver (steatosis), and fatty liver associated with inflammation (steatohepatitis).

PuncaSecara basis, the disease arises due to alcohol consumption, especially in Western countries. However, the situation is changing.

Today, cases of fatty liver in the absence of alcohol (NAFLD) is increasing. Changes in liver enzymes in an imbalance of abnormal metabolism leads to fatty liver problem.

Without specific symptoms, the disease usually affected those aged 40 years and above other people with obesity or diabetes. Most patients do not realize it. Because the disease is associated with metabolic syndrome (diabetes, extreme pressure and obesity), regular screening can not detect the presence of fat in the liver.

Add Dr. Mohd. Ismail, progress steatohepatitis can cause liver fibrosis, cirrhosis and liver cancer. As a result, it increases the risk of death for sufferers. Fibrosis or cirrhosis in the liver faced by between 15 to 50 percent of patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver steatohepatitis (NASH).

Rapid weight reduction is also invited to the existence of fatty liver. Thus, those who want to lose weight are urged to do it in stages.

"If you are suffering from obesity, chances are you have a problem of fatty liver is high," he said.

Diagnosis and treatment of ultra-sound test, followed by biopsy of the liver can detect the presence of fat.

Dr. Mohd. Ismail stressed that only by leading a healthy lifestyle and proper eating helps prevent the spread of the disease.

Although fatty liver is not a chronic disease, but this condition should be treated. Treatment depends on the cause. For example, if the patient is an individual who is a lot of drinking, he must reduce the land acquisition.

If the patient is an individual who is obese, she should be eating and weight control.

Guide to overcome arthritis

To alleviate the symptoms of osteoarthritis, patients should minimize any heavy activity. Patients can also do exercise to maintain and improve mobility of joints and hardening regimes.

In addition to lifestyle changes, dietary habits and taking proper supplements is also important for the relief of osteoarthritis disease. Health experts consider Glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate as a popular supplement for arthritis. The study proves the ability of Glucosamine in improving symptoms of osteoarthritis and delays the development of osteoarthritis.

Studies show that consumption of 1500 milligrams of Glucosamine a day may reduce symptoms of mild and moderate levels of osteoarthritis. Glucosamine effective for relieving pain and inflammation, increase mobility and assist in the repair and maintain cartilage. This is because the Glucosamine has been shown to stimulate bone formation and repair of cartilage.

Meanwhile, the combination of Glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate were found to be more effective as a treatment of osteoarthritis in moderate and serious level, rather than Glucosamine alone or Celecoxib (a medicine non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAIDs)), which provides temporary relief. These findings are from GAIT (Glucosamine / Chondroitin Arthritis Intervention Trial) conducted in the United States of sponsoring the National Institutes of Health (NIH).

To know the facts when the leftover recovered and turn into something nice, are really unacceptable. I still can't forgive myself by eating those craps, especially when I knew the fact about salami;

Salami, the mystery meat: Is it cow? Is it pig? Well, if you’re talking Genoa salami, like you’d get at Subway, then it’s both. Most salami is made from slaughterhouse leftovers that are gathered using “advanced meat recovery,” which sounds like a rehab center for vegans but is actually a mechanical process that strips the last remaining bits of muscle off the bone so nothing is wasted. It’s then processed using lactic acid, the waste product produced by bacteria in the meat. It both gives the salami its tangy flavor and cures it as well, making it an inhos­pitable place for other bacteria to grow. Add in a bunch of salt and spices—for a total of 15 ingredients in all—and you’ve got salami. But now that you know what’s in there, you might need to check yourself into an advanced meat recovery center. ...read the rest

Acute diarrhea is a common cause of death in developing countries and the second most common cause of infant deaths worldwide. The loss of fluids through diarrhea can cause severe dehydration which is one cause of death in diarrhea sufferers. A study with partial results released in October 2009 suggests diarrhea is now estimated to cause 3 times more deaths than previously thought, at 1.1 million annually for people aged 5 and over, up from 300,000 assumed in a 2002 study. According to UNICEF, diarrhea kills some 1.5 million children under the age of 5 annually. Also, according to WHO statistics, some 50 million children have been saved thanks to the low cost treatment of oral rehydration salts in the past 25 years.
