Main causes of liver damage



The main causes of liver damage are: 
1. Sleeping too late and waking up too late are main cause. 
 2. Not urinating in the morning. 
 3 . Too much eating.. 
 4. Skipping breakfast. 
 5. Consuming too much medication. 
 6. Consuming too much preservatives, additives, food coloring, and artificial sweetener
 7. Consuming unhealthy cooking oil
As much as possible reduce cooking oil use when frying, which includes even the best cooking oils like olive oil. Do not consume fried foods when you are tired, except if the body is20very fit.
 8. Consuming raw (overly done) foods also add to the burden of liver. 
Veggies should be eaten raw or cooked 3-5 parts. Fried veggies should be finished in one sitting, do not store...
 We should prevent this without necessarily spending more. We just have to adopt a good daily lifestyle and eating habits. Maintaining good eating habitsand time condition are very important for our bodies to absorb and get rid of unnecessary chemicals according to 'schedule.'

BRAIN DAMAGING HABITS

BRAIN DAMAGING HABITS 
1. No Breakfast 
People who do not take breakfast are going to have a lower blood sugar level. This leads to an insufficient supply of nutrients to the brain causing brain degeneration.
. Overeating=2 0
It causes hardening of the brain arteries, leading to a decrease in mental power.
 3 Smoking 
It causes multiple brain shrinkage and may lead to Alzheimer disease.
 4. High Sugar consumption 
Too much sugar will interrupt the absorption of proteins and nutrients causing malnutrition and may interfere with brain development.
 5. Air Pollution 
The brain is the largest oxygen consumer in our 20 body. Inhaling polluted air decreases the supply of oxygen to the brain, bringing about a decrease in brain efficiency.
 6 Sleep Deprivation 
Sleep allows our brain to rest.. Long term deprivation from sleep will accelerate the death of brain cells..
 7. Head covered while sleeping 
Sleeping with the head covered increases the concentration of carbon dioxide and decrease concentration of oxygen that may lead to brain damaging effects.
 8. Working your brain during illness 
Working hard or studying with sickness may lead to a decrease in effectiveness of the brain as well as damage the brain.
 9. Lacking in stimulating thoughts 
Thinking is the best way to train our brain, lacking in brain stimulation thoughts may cause brain shrinkage..
 10. Talking Rarely 
Intellectual conversations will promote the efficiency of the brain

"Importance of having Breakfast"



"Importance of having Breakfast" 
Breakfast can help prevent strokes, heart attackand sudden death. Advice on not to skip breakfast!
Healthy living.. For those who always skip breakfast, you should stop that habit now! You've heard many times that "Breakfast is the most important meal of the day." Now, recent research confirms that one of the worst practices you can develop may be avoiding breakfast.
 Why?
Because the frequency of heart attack, sudden death, and stroke peaks between 6: 00a.m. and noon, with the highest incidence being between 8: 00a.m. and10:00a.m.What mechanism within the body could account for this significant jump in sudden death in the early morning hours? We may have an Answer.Platelet, tiny elements in the blood that keep us from bleeding to Death if we get a cut, can clump together inside our arteries due to Cholesterol or plaque buildup in the artery lining. It is in the morning hours that platelets become the most activated and tend to form these internal blood clots at the greatest frequency.
However, eating even a very light breakfast prevents the morning platelet activation that is associated with heart attacks and strokes. Studies performed at Memorial University in St.Johns Newfoundland found that eating a light, very low-fat breakfast was critical in modifying the morning platelet activation. Subjects in the study consumed either low-fat or fat-free yogurt, orange juice, fruit, and a source of protein coming from yogurt or fat-free milk. So if you skip breakfast, it's important that you change this practice immediately in light of this research. Develop a simple plan to eat cereal, such as oatmeal or Bran Flakes, along with six ounces of grape juice or orange juice, and perhaps a piece of fruit. This simple plan will keep your platelets from sticking together, keep blood clots from forming, and perhaps head off a potential Heart Attack or stroke.. So never ever skip breakfast

Apa itu H1N1?



Apa itu H1N1? 
Viral Novel Influenza type A H1N1. Ianya berasal dari Virus Avian Flu(Selsema Burung H5N1) yang telah menjangkiti itik @ Khinzir dan telah bergabung dengan Swine Flu (yang sepatutnya hanya menjangkiti ternakan itik sahaja) dan telah evaluasi (Mutasi) untuk penyesuaian diri di dalam 'host' yang lebih tinggi didalam rantaian makanan @ manusia Dan semasa didalam badan manusia, sekali lagi ia berevolusi supaya ia menjadi 'air born' dan menjangkit dari manusia kepada manusia. 
Jangka Hayat Virus 
Oleh kerana ia adalah Virus yang 'air born', ia hanya boleh bertahan di udara selama 2 hingga 8 jam sahaja. Jika selepas tempoh tersebut ia tidak mendapat perumah @ host( badan manusia) ia akan mati. Maka bilik yang dibiarkan selama 24 jam dengan air ventilation yg baik....akan 'bersih' dr virus tersebut. 
Apa Yang Perlu Tahu 
Asal virus ini: 
Sebenarnya telah terdapat outbrake di US sebelum terjadi outbrake di Mexico tapi tidak dilaporkan kepada WHO. Kemungkinan outbrake ini telah dikesan dan US mahu 'baling batu sembunyi tangan' lalu tercetus la outbrakedi Mexico. 
Virologi Virus H1N1 
Incubation Period yang singkat pada purata 2 hari dengan julat 1 - 4 hari 
ini bermakna ia cepat menyerang badan manusia setelah ia menjangkiti pesakit
pesakit akan menunjukkan simptom selepas 1 hari dijangkiti paling cepat dan selewat-lewatnya hari ke - 4 
H1N1 sebenarnya adalah Selsema Biasa namun kepada pesakit yang berisiko, ia dapat membunuh. Jika pesakit adalah seorang yg normal, ia hanya akan memberi kesan seperti demam selsema biasa dan batuk. 
Cara Serangan 
Virus ini boleh disebarkan melalui batuk, bersin dan percakapan.Virus ini akan menyerang sistem pernafasan (seperti selsema burung dan SARS) peringkat awal, ia hanya pada 'trakea' jika tidak mendapat rawatan awal, ia akan menyerang paru-paru dan boleh menyebabkan kematian akibat 'lung collapse' ia amat merbahaya kepada golongan yangg berisiko tinggi. 
Siapa yang berisiko: 
1. Orang yg ada masaalah 'obesiti' @ gemuk 
2. Perempuan yg mengandung 
3. Orang yg ada astmatic 
4. Orang-orang yang bermasalah dengan sistem imunisasi ( menjalani 'operation yg besar', kanak2 yg belum cukup suntikan imunisasi, golongan2 yg rendah tahap imuniti eg. HIV ext.) 
*kematian yg telah dilaporkan terdiri drpd golongan-golongan di atas. 
Simptom-Simptom 
day 1 - rasa kurang sihat, tak bermaya 
day 2 - selsema, batuk dan demam yg kekal ( demam tidak turun walaupun telah makan ubat demam) 
day 3 - rasa kurang selesa di bahagian dada dan sesak nafas 
day 4 - sakit dada yg teruk jumpa doktor dengan segera 
day 5 - and above lung collapse @ koma 

Langkah-langakah kawalan 
1. Golongan-golongan yang berisiko, elakkan daripada kesesakan ( kawasan yg padat dgn orang ramai) 
2. Menjaga kebersihan diri, basuh tangan selalu dan dgn betul, jaga kebersihan rumah dan persekitaran . 
3. Elakkan diri jika terdapat 'orang batuk, bersin dan kurang sihat' . 
4. Jika kurang sihat, elakan diri dr beraktiviti (sosial dan berkumpulan) 
5. Jika kurang sihat dan ada ILI( influenza light illness @ selsema biasa) jgn hadirkan diri di kawasan orang ramai. jika terpaksa, pakai 'mask' (sekurang2 nya 3 ply mask) 
6. Untuk orang yang sihat, elakkan dari kawasan yang padat. 
7. Jika ada tanda2 simptom diatas, segera ke hospital untuk pemeriksaan dan rawatan 
8. Jika sihat, jgn ke hospital atau klinik utk 'checkup' kerana di kawasan tersebut mengandungi bnyk virus. 
9. Tak perlu ambil anti-viral @ apa2 ubt influenza!!! !!!!!!!. jika sihat dan mengambilnya, akn mengakibatkan resistan kpd vaksin @ ubt2 untuk merawat jika terkena jangkitan. ini adalah kerana berlakunya resistansi virus terhadap persekitaran badan yg telah mengambil ubat-ubat tersebut terlebih awal. 
10. Vaksin hanya akan 'wujud' seawal2nya pada oktober dan hanya utk 'frontliner' shj. dan utk awam selewat2nya pada 2010. 
11. Untuk makluman, influenza test hanya dijalankan di 2 makmal shj di malaysia. mengambil masa 6 jam utk run test kpd 1 batch sample. jika klinik menyatakan mereka boleh jlnkan ujian, itu tidak betul. tak perlu ambil suntikan seasonal influenza kerana ia tidak berkaitan. 
12. Tahap kesedaran dan pengetahuan yg tinggi amat perlu utk kita sama2 menghadapi outbrakeini. sama2lah kita berdoa kpd ALLAH s.w.t agar bala ini cepat berlalu. 
Amin...
