Overeating affects the liver, heart, pancreas, stomach, and intestines. It also impacts additional organs and tissues throughout the body. The scale of damage is extensive and should not be underestimated.

For example, poor liver function, a direct result of overeating, is linked to cancer, diabetes, arthritis, and osteoporosis . The excessive protein leading to a malfunctioning liver also causes kidney damage, pyorrhea, schizophrenia, atherosclerosis, heart disease, and cancer. When the liver malfunctions the intestines step in, but this excess workload may only speed up intestinal deterioration, leading to a further list of complications.

The proper functioning of every organ in the body is key for ultimate health. Once one is compromised a vicious domino affect is seen that affects multiple body systems and results in several serious complications. Excess eating can cause each, and over time possibly every, body organ to malfunction.
Eating anything in excess is dangerous. This includes even healthy foods--the over consumption of which results in disease and accelerated aging, just as their less healthy counterparts. Whether an individual eats too much fruit or too much pizza, excess calories from any source is not good for the system.

Treat Your Body Right
Problems can be prevented. Instead of stressing out the body with large meals, soothe the digestive tract by eating multiple smaller sized portions during the day . Each meal should be about the size of the consuming individual's fist and liquids should be drunk in quantities half that amount . To eat or drink more than this at a time exhausts the body and forces it to store whatever quantity is over consumed.

HOW ABOUT INDOMINE NIGERIANS ????Yahoo Health.

Holy hotplates! Instant ramen noodles, beloved cheap dinner of college kids and budget eaters everywhere, have been linked to heart attacks and diabetes. A study published in the Journal of Nutrition found that the ramen, along with other instant noodle products, may increase a person's risk for cardiometabolic syndrome — a risk factor for severe cardiovascular disease and stroke — especially in women.

"This research is significant since many people are consuming instant noodles without knowing possible health risks," said lead researcher Hyun Joon Shin, MD, in a press release. Shin, a clinical cardiology fellow at Baylor University Medical Center and a nutrition epidemiology doctoral student at the Harvard School of Public Health, could not be reached for further comment.

For the study, researchers looked at the data of 10,711 adults between the ages of 19 and 64, collected via the nationally representative Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey of 2007-2009. They found that eating instant noodles — ramen, lo mein, glass, Thai, or other — twice or more a week was associated with cardiometabolic syndrome, a collection of abnormalities affecting the body's cardiovascular, renal, and metabolic systems.

Although the specific cause of the problem was not immediately clear, Shin noted that it might stem from the fact that most instant noodle meals come packaged in Styrofoam, which contains bisphenol A (BPA), a known hormone disruptor — which is also why women could have been more affected in this study. But the food product contains plenty of unhealthy ingredients, including MSG and the chemical preservative tertiary-butylhydroquinone (TBHQ), and is also high in saturated fat.

The study focused on individuals in South Korea, Shin said, as the country has the highest per-capita number of instant noodle consumers in the world, and because, in recent years, health problems there, including heart disease and obesity, have been on the rise. But the findings appear to be quite relevant to consumers stateside too, as the United States ranked sixth globally in instant noodle sales, according to the World Instant Noodles Association, which found that the United States accounted for 4,300 billion units sold in 2013 (coming in just behind China, Indonesia, Japan, Vietnam, and India — and one spot above South Korea, in fact).

This is not the first time ramen noodles have been publicly maligned. In 2012, a viral video taken from inside the digestive tract, part of a small and inconclusive study by Dr. Braden Kuo, showed just what happened after instant ramen was ingested — and it wasn't pretty. The stomach worked overtime, struggling for hours to grind up the strands; TBHQ, a petroleum byproduct, was named as a possible culprit. Years earlier, Malaysian health officials issued a warning against eating instant noodles because of ingredients such as thickeners, stabilizers, sodium, and preservatives that have been linked to heart disease, stroke, and kidney damage.

Nissin Foods, maker of the first instant ramen noodle in Japan in 1958 (and the company that brought Top Ramen to the U.S. in 1972), did not respond to a request for comment from Yahoo Health.

The bottom line? Ingest the cheap and filling noodles at your own risk.

Does Having One Testicle Reduce Fertility?
By Richard Banks 09/28/2012 11:39 AM

In all honesty, this question is one I've thought about time and time again. If men have two testicles and both testicles produce sperm how would the removal of one testicle, or being born with only one testicle, impact fertility. The answer, to my shock, was that a man with one testicle produces just as much sperm as a man with two testicles.

Semen and Sperm Production
If a man is born with two testicles, he will produce sperm and semen in both. Tubes connect the testes to the penis where semen and sperm are moved out of the body during ejaculation. If one testicle is not present at birth or if one is removed at some point in life, the other testicle takes over semen and sperm production.

There could be reduced semen production as a result of having only one testicle, but fertility is not affected in most cases. Let's take a look at this in numerical terms. Sperm production in excess of 20 million per sample is considered normal. If a man produces 100 million sperm with two testicles and that number is cut in half due to the loss of one testicle, sperm production is still within normal levels. However, the remaining testicle will pick up sperm production so the total number of sperm may not be halved in a real life situation, so more than 50 million sperm could be produced in reality.

What About Those Rare Cases?
Sure, there are rare cases where testicle removal or being born with only one testicle affects fertility, but it takes only one sperm to fertilize the egg, so any production is good enough for conception with assisted technology, in most cases.

If you feel you could be producing less sperm than needed to conceive and you've been having problems with fertility, a spermanalysis can put your mind at ease. Sometimes, the cause of infertility has nothing to do with sperm production at all, but it's nice to see the normal numbers on paper and may be enough to reduce stress and increase your chances of natural conception.

Ebola prevention: How to protect yourself from Ebola
If you have recently travelled to an area that has been affected, such as Liberia, Ghana or Sierra Leone, or have come into contact with someone who may at risk, there are several ways of limiting your chance of catching Ebola
Despite the seriousness of the disease preventing it spreading is relatively simple

By Hannah Flint

EBola is spread by contact with the fluids of someone who is infected with Ebola, including saliva, sweat, blood and vomit. No vaccine or cure is available.

But there have been no reported cases in the UK, so coming into contact with the disease at this stage is really unlikely.

However, if you have recently travelled to an area that has been affected, such as Liberia, Ghana or Sierra Leone, or have come into contact with someone who may at risk, there are several ways of limiting your chance of catching Ebola.

Despite the seriousness of the disease, which causes bleeding from the mouth, ears and eyes, preventing it spreading is relatively simple.
According to the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, it is important to wash your hands thoroughly with warm water and soap or, if that is not available, a hand sanitiser can be used.
Avoid any contact with someone you believe is infected, especially with their bodily fluids, advises the World Health Organisation (WHO).
If you need to go near someone with the virus, use protective gear such as face masks and gloves.
Health workers in West Africa have taken full precautions, wearing protective suits that cover their entire bodies, as well as hosing down areas infected patients have used.
WHO states any areas an infected person could have had contact with, such as bed linens, should be disinfected.

If you believe someone you know has been infected, or if you think you might have contracted Ebola, the best thing to do is isolate yourself from any other people around you and call medical help immediately.

A sudden temperature, muscle aches, vomiting or a rash might indicate you have the disease.

Is There a Cure for Ebola?
There is no cure for Ebola to kill the virus; however, research scientists are working on a new vaccine that may prevent infection. When symptoms of Ebola do begin, healthcare providers can only offer supportive care.
Can Ebola Be Cured?
Time is the only Ebola cure. There are currently no proven Ebola treatment options that can kill the Ebola virus, and there is no Ebola vaccine that can prevent an infection.

Time as an Ebola "Cure"
A person will not feel sick for several days to a few weeks after being infected with the Ebola virus. When Ebola symptoms do develop, healthcare providers can only offer supportive care. Supportive care involves treating symptoms and complications of Ebola while the body fights the infection. Supportive care for Ebola can include:

 Good nursing care
 Oxygen and devices that help with breathing
 Intravenous (IV) fluids to maintain fluids and electrolytes
 Medications to control fever, help the blood clot, and maintain blood pressure
 Antibiotics to prevent secondary infections.

Despite supportive care, 50 to 90 percent of Ebola patients do not survive the infection.

Could a Vaccine Be a Cure for Ebola?
Some Ebola research scientists have focused their efforts on developing a new Ebola vaccine. This vaccine may prevent Ebola hemorrhagic fever from developing, but will not be a cure for Ebola. The Ebola vaccine is currently being tested in clinical trials.

HEALTH BENEFIT OF BITTER KOLA
Health Benefits Of Bitter Kola The bitter kola is a type of kola found in parts of Nigeria. Its biological name is "Garcinia kola" and it belongs to the family of "Guittiferal". Among the Yorubas, it is called 'Orogbo', the Igbos call it 'Agbilu', 'Adi' or 'Aki ilu' while among the Hausas, this very popular nut is known as 'Namijin Gworo.' It is a wonderful agricultural product with a wide range of applications in natural and orthodox medicine . informationng.com gathers that bitter kola is a potent antibiotic, which could be effective in the treatment of many ailments and infections. Dr Bartholomew Brai, Nutritional Biochemist at the Nigerian Institute of Medical Research, Yaba, Lagos, said that bitter kola was used in the preparation of herbal drugs either as nourishment, supplement or herbal remedy. Brai said, "If a patient on medication chews bitter kola, it will make the drugs ineffective. Aside this, I do not think bitter kola has any other side effect. "Bitter kola has lots of health benefits, like the treatment of cough, sneezing, cold, diarrhoeas, tuberculosis, bacterial infection and fever. "It improves lungs function by expanding the alveolar ducts and sac in the lungs thereby improving and strengthening the fibres in the lung tissue." He said that there was no recorded side effect to the regular intake of bitter kola, adding that it was all round medicinal. So, what are you waiting for? Look for the closest bitter kola seller and buy some for yourself, and even friends

Health 24

The 2014 Ebola outbreak in west Africa is the worst outbreak of the haemorrhagic disease since it was discovered in 1976.

In total, 1 201 cases including 672 deaths (case fatality rate 56%) have been reported during the 2014 outbreak.

Since Ebola was discovered in 1976, some 1 200 people have been killed by the virus from 3 147 cases - illustrating the virulence of the virus this time round.

Signs and symptoms of Ebola

Symptoms present themselves anywhere from 2 to 21 days after infection, but mostly between day 8 and 10. The symptoms are similar to the flu, cholera, typhoid and malaria.

Signs and symptoms: Fever, headache, joint and muscle aches, weakness, diarrhoea, vomiting, stomach pain and lack of appetite.

This is followed by vomiting, diarrhoea, rash, impaired kidney and liver function, and in some cases, both internal and external bleeding. Bleeding can occur from the eyes, ears, nose, mouth and anus.

The WHO reports that laboratory findings include low white blood cell and platelet counts and elevated liver enzymes.

People are infectious as long as their blood and secretions contain the virus. Ebola virus was isolated from semen 61 days after onset of illness in a man who was infected in a laboratory.

Science writer David Quammen, who has investigated the origins and spread of the virus, writes that "RNA viruses (of which Ebola is one) produce acute infections, severe for a short time and then gone. Either they soon disappear or they kill you."

Take a look: Symptoms from onset, from the US Centres for Disease and Control ebola path

Diagnosing the disease in someone who has been infected for only a few days is difficult because early symptoms, such as eye inflammation and skin rash, resemble symptoms of several other more common conditions.

If Ebola is suspected, laboratory tests should be done promptly. Only one laboratory in South Africa (the National Institute for Communicable Diseases NICD) is equipped to perform tests for Ebola.

This laboratory serves as a World Health Organisation reference centre for haemorrhagic diseases and also provides this diagnostic test service to many other African countries.

There is no treatment or cure. ajuglobalmediahttp://firstname.lastname@example.com://ajuglobalmedia.blogspot.com/2014/07/the-2014-ebola-outbreak-in-west-africa.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7831873805628609946.post-58664825314458559372014-07-28T17:50:00.001-07:002014-07-28T17:50:12.348-07:0010 PEOPLE WITH SHOCKING AND EXTREME DEFORMITIES

 Healthline
What is Albanism?

Albinism is a rare group of genetic disorders that cause the skin, hair, or eyes to have little or no color. Albinism is also associated with vision problems. According to the National Organization for Albinism and Hypopigmentation (NOAH), approximately one in 17,000 people have a form of albinism.

Who Is at Risk for Albinism?

Albinism is an inherited disorder that is present at birth. Children are at risk of being born with albinism if they have parents with albinism, or parents who carry the gene for albinism.

What are the Symptoms of Albinism?

People with albinism will have the following symptoms:

 an absence of color in the hair, skin, or eyes
 lighter than normal coloring of the hair, skin, or eyes
 patches of skin that have an absence of color

Albinism is associated with vision problems, which may include:

 strabismus (crossed eyes)
 photophobia (sensitivity to light)
 nystagmus (involuntary rapid eye movements)
 impaired vision or blindness
 astigmatism

How Is Albinism Diagnosed?
The most accurate way to diagnose albinism is through genetic testing to detect defective genes related to albinism. Less accurate ways of detecting albinism include an evaluation of symptoms by your doctor, or an electroretinogram test (that measures the response of the light-sensitive cells in the eyes) to reveal problems with your eyes associated with albinism.

How Is Albinism Treated?
There is no cure for albinism. Treatment for albinism is provided to relieve symptoms and to prevent sun damage. Treatment for albinism may include:

 sunglasses to protect the eyes from UV rays
 protective clothing and sunscreen to protect the skin from UV rays
 prescription eyeglasses to correct vision problems
 surgery on the muscles of the eyes to correct abnormal eye movements

What Is The Long-Term Outlook For Albinism?
Most forms of albinism do not affect lifespan. Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome, Chediak-Higashi syndrome, and Griscelli syndrome, however, do affect lifespan because of the co-occurring health problems associated with the syndromes. People with albinism may have to limit their outdoor activities because their skin and eyes are sensitive to the sun. UV rays from the sun can cause skin cancer and vision loss in some people with albinism.

But if you suspect you may have a more severe injury, use first-aid measures while you arrange for an evaluation by your doctor.
Immediate first aid for burns

 First, stop the burning to prevent a more severe burn.
 Heat burns (thermal burns): Smother any flames by covering them with a blanket or water. If your clothing catches fire, do not run: stop, drop, and roll on the ground to smother the flames.
 Cold temperature burns: Try first aid measures to warm the areas. Small areas of your body (ears, face, nose, fingers, toes) that are really cold or frozen can be warmed by blowing warm air on them, tucking them inside your clothing or putting them in warm water.
 Liquid scald burns (thermal burns): Run cool tap water over the burn for 10 to 20 minutes. Do not use ice.
 Electrical burns: After the person has been separated from the electrical source, check for breathing and a heartbeat. If the person is not breathing or does not have a heartbeat, call 911.
 Chemical burns: Natural foods such as chili peppers, which contain a substance irritating to the skin, can cause a burning sensation. When a chemical burn occurs, find out what chemical caused the burn.
 Tar or hot plastic burns: Immediately run cold water over the hot tar or hot plastic to cool the tar or plastic.
 Next, look for other injuries. The burn may not be the only injury.
 Remove any jewelry or clothing at the site of the burn. If clothing is stuck to the burn, do not remove it. Carefully cut around the stuck fabric to remove loose fabric. Remove all jewelry, because it may be hard to remove it later if swelling occurs.

Prepare for an evaluation by a doctor
If you are going to see your doctor soon:

 Cover the burn with a clean, dry cloth to reduce the risk of infection.
 Do not put any salve or medicine on the burned area, so your doctor can properly assess your burn.
 Do not put ice or butter on the burned area, because these measures do not help and can damage the skin tissue.

Home treatment for minor burns

 For home treatment of first-degree burns and sunburns:
 Use cool cloths on burned areas.
 Take frequent cool showers or baths.
 Apply soothing lotions that contain aloe vera to burned areas to relieve pain and swelling. Applying 0.5% hydrocortisone cream to the burned area also may help. Note: Do not use the cream on children younger than age 2 unless your doctor tells you to. Do not use in the rectal or vaginal area of children younger than age 12 unless your doctor tells you to.
 There isn't much you can do to stop skin from peeling after a sunburn—it is part of the healing process. Lotion may help relieve the itching.
 Other home treatment measures, such as chamomile, may help relieve your sunburn symptoms.

 Cares2
Keeps you hydrated. If you are too busy to drink enough water, munch on the cool cucumber, which is 96 percent water. It will cheerfully compensate!
 Fights heat, both inside and out. Eat cucumber, and your body gets relief from heartburn. Apply cucumber on your skin, and you get relief from sunburn.
 Flushes out toxins. All that water in cucumber acts as a virtual broom, sweeping waste products out of your system. With regular use, cucumber is known to dissolve kidney stones.
 Lavishes you with vitamins. A B and C, which boost immunity, give you energy, and keep you radiant. Give it more power by juicing cucumber with carrot and spinach.
 Supplies skin-friendly minerals: magnesium, potassium, silicon. That's why cucumber-based treatments abound in spas.
 Aids in weight loss. Enjoy cucumbers in your salads and soups. My favorite snack? Crunchy cucumber sticks with creamy low-fat yogurt dip.
 Revives the eyes. Placing chilled slices of cucumber on the eyes is a clichéd beauty visual, but it really helps reduce under-eye bags and puffiness.
 Cuts cancer. Cut down your risk of several cancers by including cucumber in your diet. Several studies show its cancer-fighting potential.
 Stabilizes blood pressure. Patients of blood pressure, both high and low, often find that eating cucumber brings relief.
 Refreshes the mouth. Cucumber juice refreshes and heals diseased gums, leaving your mouth smelling good.
 Helps digestion. Chewing cucumber gives the jaws a good workout, and the fiber in it is great for digestion.
 Smooths hair and nails. Silica, the wonder mineral in cucumber makes your hair and nails stronger and shinier.
 Soothes muscle and joint pain. All those vitamins and minerals in cucumber make it a powerful enemy of muscle and joint pain.
 Keeps kidneys in shape. Cucumber lowers uric acid levels in your system, keeping the kidneys happy.
 Good for diabetics. Patients of diabetes can enjoy cucumber while also reaping its health benefits: cucumber contains a hormone needed by the cells of the pancreas for producing insulin.
 Reduces cholesterol. A compound called sterols in cucumber helps reduce bad cholesterol.

GO ON AND GRAB THEM.

1. Improved Vision
Western culture's understanding of carrots being "good for the eyes" is one of the few we got right. Carrots are rich in beta-carotene, which is converted into vitamin A in the liver. Vitamin A is transformed in the retina, to rhodopsin, a purple pigment necessary for night vision.

Beta-carotene has also been shown to protect against macular degeneration and senile cataracts. A study found that people who eat the most beta-carotene had 40 percent lower risk of macular degeneration than those who consumed little.

2. Cancer Prevention
Studies have shown carrots reduce the risk of lung cancer, breast cancer and colon cancer. Researchers have just discovered falcarinol and falcarindiol which they feel cause the anticancer properties.

Falcarinol is a natural pesticide produced by the carrot that protects its roots from fungal diseases. Carrots are one of the only common sources of this compound. A study showed 1/3 lower cancer risk by carrot-eating mice.

3. Anti-Aging
The high level of beta-carotene acts as an antioxidant to cell damage done to the body through regular metabolism. It help slows down the aging of cells.

4. Healthy Glowing Skin (from the inside)
Vitamin A and antioxidants protects the skin from sun damage. Deficiencies of vitamin A cause dryness to the skin, hair and nails. Vitamin A prevents premature wrinkling, acne, dry skin, pigmentation, blemishes, and uneven skin tone.

5. A Powerful Antiseptic
Carrots are known by herbalists to prevent infection. They can be used on cuts – shredded raw or boiled and mashed.

6. Beautiful Skin (from the outside)
Carrots are used as an inexpensive and very convenient facial mask. Just mix grated carrot with a bit of honey. See the full recipe here: carrot face mask.

7. Prevent Heart Disease
Studies show that diets high in carotenoids are associated with a lower risk of heart disease. Carrots have not only beta-carotene but also alpha-carotene and lutein.

The regular consumption of carrots also reduces cholesterol levels because the soluble fibers in carrots bind with bile acids.

8. Cleanse the Body
Vitamin A assists the liver in flushing out the toxins from the body. It reduces the bile and fat in the liver. The fibers present in carrots help clean out the colon and hasten waste movement.

9. Healthy Teeth and Gums
It's all in the crunch! Carrots clean your teeth and mouth. They scrape off plaque and food particles just like toothbrushes or toothpaste. Carrots stimulate gums and trigger a lot of saliva, which being alkaline, balances out the acid-forming, cavity-forming bacteria. The minerals in carrots prevent tooth damage.

10. Prevent Stroke:
From all the above benefits it is no surprise that in a Harvard University study, people who ate more than six carrots a week are less likely to suffer a stroke than those who ate only one carrot a month or less.ajuglobalmediahttp://email@example.com://ajuglobalmedia.blogspot.com/2014/07/10-powerful-benefits-of-carrots-go-on.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7831873805628609946.post-57031043485460273522014-07-09T15:50:00.005-07:002014-07-09T15:50:56.292-07:00WHAT HAPPENS TO OUR BODIES WHEN WE FAST: THIS IS A SERIOUS NEED TO KNOW. By emel
During a fast, your body generates its own energy by burning stored resources made from excess fats, carbohydrates and sugars to produce energy. The liver is the most significant organ in this economical process; it converts the fats into chemicals called ketone bodies which are three water-soluble compounds that are then used as a source for energy.

Detoxification is one of the most important benefits of fasting. A regular body process, detoxification occurs as the colon, liver, kidney, lungs, lymph glands and skin eliminate or neutralise toxins. This process speeds up during fasting as the body breaks down fats. Chemicals and toxins absorbed from food and the environment are stored in fat reserves and released during fasting.

Fasting is also a healing for the mind, body and soul in more ways than one. At a physical level, energy and resources are diverted from the digestive system (which is constantly in overuse as we graze on food) to the immune system and metabolic processes allowing the body to heal, rebuild and replenish itself. Medical studies show that during a fast, abnormal tissue growths such as tumours become starved for nutrients and are hence more susceptible to being broken down and removed from the body. Fasting allows the body to tap its resources to their fullest potential and focus on rebuilding from a microscopic level as DNA and RNA genetic controls become more efficient in transcribing the proteins and tissues the body needs. This revamped protein synthesis results in healthier cells, tissues and organs.

Other changes in the body during a fast include a slight decrease in core body temperature due to a decline in metabolic rate and general bodily functions. Blood sugar levels also drop as the body uses the reservoir of glycogen in the liver and the base metabolic rate (BMR) is reduced in order to conserve energy. The digestive system, which is very often overloaded, and ceaselessly put to work, also cleanses itself for more efficient digestion and nutrient absorption. The lining of the stomach and intestines are allowed to restore glands and muscle, and remove waste matter. Other processes that sustain the foundational infrastructure of the body are increased during fasting, for example hormone production is increased as well as the release of anti-aging growth hormones.

MNT knowledge center and WEBMD

How many types of hepatitis are there?

The liver is the largest gland in the human body. It weighs approximately 3 lb (1.36 kg). It is reddish brown in color and is divided into four lobes of different sizes and lengths. It is also the largest internal organ (the largest organ is the skin). It is below the diaphragm on the right in the thoracic region of the abdomen. Blood reaches the liver through the hepatic artery and the portal vein. The portal vein carries blood containing digested food from the small intestine, while the hepatic artery carries oxygen-rich blood from the aorta.
Liver
Most liver damage is caused by 3 hepatitis viruses, called hepatitis A, B and C.

The liver has a wide range of functions, including:

 Detoxification (filters harmful substances form the blood, such as alcohol)
 Stores vitamins A, D, K and B12 (also stores minerals)
 Protein synthesis (makes certain amino acids - the building blocks of proteins)
 The production of biochemicals needed for digestion, such as bile
 Maintains proper levels of glucose in the blood
 Produces 80% of your body's cholesterol (cholesterol is vital)
 The storage glycogen (also converts glucose to glycogen)
 Decomposing red blood cells
 Synthesizing plasma protein
 The production of hormones
There are five main types of hepatitis that are caused by a virus, A, B, C, D, and E - plus types X and G.
Hepatitis A

This is caused by eating infected food or water. The food or water is infected with a virus called HAV (hepatitis A virus). Anal-oral contact during sex can also be a cause. Nearly everyone who develops Hepatitis A makes a full recovery - it does not lead to chronic disease.
Hepatitis B

This is an STD (sexually transmitted disease). It is caused by the virus HBV (hepatitis B virus) and is spread by contact with infected blood, semen, and some other body fluids. You get hepatitis B by:

 Unprotected sexual intercourse with an infected person (unprotected sex means without using a condom) Using a syringe that was previously used by an infected person (most commonly happens with drug addicts and people who inject steroids).
 Having your skin perforated with unsterilized needles, as might be the case when getting a tattoo, or being accidentally pricked. People who work in health care risk becoming infected by accident in this way. Sharing personal items, such as a toothbrush or razor, with an infected person.
 A baby can become infected through his mother's milk if she is infected.
 Being bitten by someone who is infected.

The liver of a person infected with hepatitis B swells. The patient can suffer serious liver damage due to infection, resulting in cancer. For some patients the hepatitis becomes chronic (very long-term or lifelong). Donated blood is always tested for hepatitis B.
Hepatitis C

Hepatitis C is usually spread through direct contact with the blood of a person who has the disease. It is caused by the virus HCV (hepatitis C Virus). The liver can swell and become damaged. In hepatitis C, unlike hepatitis B, liver cancer risk is only increased in people with cirrhosis and only 20% of hep C patients get cirrhosis. Feces is never a route of transmission in hepatitis C. Donated blood is also tested for hepatitis C.ajuglobalmediahttp://email@example.com://ajuglobalmedia.blogspot.com/2014/07/most-liver-damage-is-caused-by-three.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7831873805628609946.post-83679089597668025852014-07-04T23:25:00.002-07:002014-07-04T23:32:59.160-07:0010 TERRIFIC BENEFITS OF GINGER: 10 Terrific Benefits of Ginger

By Food Matters.

1. Haven't been feeling hungry? Eat fresh ginger just before lunch to stoke a dull appetite and fire up the digestive juices.

2. Ginger improves the absorption and assimilation of essential nutrients in the body.

3. Ginger clears the 'microcirculatory channels' of the body, including the pesky sinuses that tend to flare up from time to time.

4. Feeling airsick or nauseous? Chew on ginger, preferably tossed in a little honey.

5. Can't stop the toot-a-thon? Gas—oops—guess what?! Ginger helps reduce flatulence!

6. Tummy moaning and groaning under cramps? Munch on ginger.

7. Reeling under joint pain? Ginger, with its anti-inflammatory properties—can bring relief. Float some ginger essential oil in your bath to help aching muscles and joints.

8. Just had surgery? Chewing ginger post-operation can help overcome nausea.

9. Stir up some ginger tea to get rid of throat and nose congestion. And when there's a nip in the air, the warming benefits of this tasty tea are even greater!

10. Bedroom blues? Try adding a gingery punch to a bowl of soup. (Psst...the Ayurvedic texts credit ginger with aphrodisiac properties)

ODDEE

In 2010, this Indian boy, who was born with eight limbs and venerated as a god, underwent an operation to give him a chance at a normal life. Deepak Paswan, 7, was born with a parasitic twin conjoined to his abdomen, giving him four legs and four arms but one head.

Hindu pilgrims visited his home in the northern state of Bihar to worship him as an incarnation of the god Vishnu, who is often depicted with numerous limbs.

Deepak's family, uncomfortable with the attention, appealed for help to pay for an operation to have the extra limbs removed and a hospital in the southern city of Bangalore offered to do the procedure for free.

The pioneering surgery would normally cost around £50,000, a sum that his impoverished family could never have dreamed of affording. Happily, the grueling four-hour operation was a complete success.

It is precisely because air travel is so ferociously competitive that airlines are under such enormous commercial pressure to reduce costs wherever possible. This has led to cramped conditions and poor air quality which have important health implications for passengers.
In the U.S., for instance - where such statistics are carefully collated - there are around 14,000 medical emergencies a year and 350 in-flight deaths on the nine major U.S. airlines. This far outnumbers the annual toll of deaths caused by air accidents.
Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT), the condition that killed the apparently otherwise healthy Emma Christoffersen, is one of the most common and disturbing medical problems associated with air travel.
Although DVT - where a blood clot forms in the veins of the legs and can work its way into the heart or lungs - is often seen in patients undergoing surgery, studies have shown that about 25pc of all people who develop it have been on a long-haul flight.
And the reasons air travellers develop this problem are all too apparent; in particular, the conditions that exist in the economy class of most aircraft where passengers are packed into their seats like sardines.
Barely able to move, they remain sitting in a vertical position throughout the duration of their flights, a rigid stance that prevents the normal circulation of the blood from the legs back to the heart and lungs.
The high pressure that exists in the veins forces fluid out of the circulation and into the soft tissue of the lower legs, which leads to swelling and can increase the blood's tendency to form clots.
It has been shown that during a simulated transatlantic flight, as much as four kilograms of fluid can shift from the circulation to the legs.
These difficulties are exacerbated by a host of factors such as dehydration. On a long-haul flight, a passenger should consume about a pint of water every three hours.
This is certainly not provided by the tiny meals and limited range of drinks served by most airlines. Indeed, tea, coffee and alcohol only worsen the problem by promoting dehydration, while the lack of water makes the blood stickier and more likely to clot.
Moreover, the practice of compelling passengers to sit for long periods with their meals on trays, long after they have finished eating, only worsens the constriction on the body.
Air quality in aircraft is almost as serious an issue as seating arrangements. Here again, we see the negative influence of commercial pressures.
We all need a regular intake of fresh air, and in a plane, air is drawn in by the engine and channelled into the interior. But many airlines try to conserve fuel by recycling air several times.
This problem of air quality is often at its worst when the take-off is delayed. Instead of returning to the departure lounge, the passengers remain on the stationary aircraft.
Because the engines are not running, there is little ventilation and the air becomes increasingly fetid.
The airlines claim that, once airborne, there is not a problem, because there are filters to purify the air as it recirculates. But there is little proof that filtering systems perform this job effectively.
So what can be done to improve things? I believe the Government needs to take a more active interest in the deteriorating state of air travel.
For example, we need regulations to ensure a minimum requirement of space for seating. We have such legislation for the transport of animals - so why not for humans?
And if an aircraft is subject to delay before take-off, there should be the immediate disembarkation of passengers if the delay is longer than half an hour, as happens in the U.S.
There should be legislation to restrict the re-circulation of air and to lay down minimum standards on aircraft filtration systems, in addition to stronger guidelines on the use of alcohol.
Last but not least, passengers must be made more aware of the health problems associated with flying, particularly the risk of DVT and dehydration.
Air travel has been a wonderful boon for mankind, extending our horizons. But we are living with the consequences of trying to pursue the dream of global freedom too aggressively.

Leprosy is an infectious disease that causes severe, disfiguring skin sores and nerve damage in the arms and legs. The disease has been around since ancient times, often surrounded by terrifying, negative stigmas and tales of leprosy patients being shunned as outcasts. Outbreaks of leprosy have affected, and panicked, people on every continent. The oldest civilizations of China, Egypt, and India feared leprosy was an incurable, mutilating, and contagious disease.

However, leprosy is actually not that contagious. You can catch it only if you come into close and repeated contact with nose and mouth droplets from someone with untreated leprosy. Children are more likely to get leprosy than adults.

Treatment of Actinic Keratosis
Actinic keratoses commonly appear in areas of chronic sun exposure, such as the face and dorsa of the hands. Actinic cheilitis is a related condition that usually appears on the lower lips.[1] These conditions represent early epithelial transformation that may eventually evolve into invasive SCC. Actinic keratosis is a noninvasive lesion. The progression rate is extremely low. In a prospective study, the progression rate to SCC was less than 1 in 1,000 per year, calling into question the cost effectiveness...

Today, about 180,000 people worldwide are infected with leprosy, according to the World Health Organization, most of them in Africa and Asia. About 200 people are diagnosed with leprosy in the U.S. every year, mostly in the South, California, Hawaii, and some U.S. territories.

What Causes Leprosy?

Leprosy is caused by a slow-growing type of bacteria called Mycobacterium leprae (M. leprae). Leprosy is also known as Hansen's disease, after the scientist who discovered M. leprae in 1873.

What Are the Symptoms of Leprosy?

Leprosy primarily affects the skin and the nerves outside the brain and spinal cord, called the peripheral nerves. It may also strike the eyes and the thin tissue lining the inside of the nose.

The main symptom of leprosy is disfiguring skin sores, lumps, or bumps that do not go away after several weeks or months. The skin sores are pale-colored.

Nerve damage can lead to:

Loss of feeling in the arms and legs
Muscle weakness
It usually takes about 3 to 5 years for symptoms to appear after coming into contact with the leprosy-causing bacteria. Some people do not develop symptoms until 20 years later. The time between contact with the bacteria and the appearance of symptoms is called the incubation period. Leprosy's long incubation period makes it very difficult for doctors to determine when and where a person with leprosy got infected.

Forms of Leprosy

Leprosy is defined by the number and type of skin sores you have. Specific symptoms and treatment depend on the type of leprosy you have. The types are:

Tuberculoid. A mild, less severe form of leprosy. People with this type have only one or a few patches of flat, pale-colored skin (paucibacillary leprosy). The affected area of skin may feel numb because of nerve damage underneath. Tuberculoid leprosy is less contagious than other forms.

Lepromatous. A more severe form of the disease. It has widespread skin bumps and rashes (multibacillary leprosy), numbness, and muscle weakness. The nose, kidneys, and male reproductive organs may also be affected. It is more contagious than tuberculoid leprosy.

Borderline. People with this type of leprosy have symptoms of both the tuberculoid and lepromatous forms.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU ARE IN COMAWhat Happens When Someone Is in a Coma?
Someone who is in a coma is unconscious and will not respond to voices, other sounds, or any sort of activity going on nearby. The person is still alive, but the brain is functioning at its lowest stage of alertness. You can't shake and wake up someone who is in a coma like you can someone who has just fallen asleep.

What Can Cause a Coma?
Comas can be caused by different things, including:

a severe injury to the head that hurts the brain
seizures
infections involving the brain
brain damage caused by a lack of oxygen for too long
an overdose (taking too much) of medicine or other drugs
a stroke
When one of these things happens, it can mess up how the brain's cells work. This can hurt the parts of the brain that make someone conscious, and if those parts stop working, the person will stay unconscious.

what is coma

How Do People Take Care of Someone in a Coma?
Someone in a coma usually needs to be cared for in the intensive care unit (ICU) of the hospital. There, the person can get extra care and attention from doctors, nurses, and other hospital staff. They make sure the person gets fluids, nutrients, and any medicines needed to keep the body as healthy as possible. These are sometimes given through a tiny plastic tube inserted in a vein or through a feeding tube that brings fluids and nutrients directly to the stomach.

Some comatose people are unable to breathe on their own and need the help of a ventilator (say: ven-tih-lay-ter), a machine that pumps air into the lungs through a tube placed in the windpipe. The hospital staff also tries to prevent bedsores in someone who is comatose. Bedsores are open sores on the body that come from lying in one place for too long without moving at all.

It can be very upsetting and frustrating for a person's family to see someone they love in a coma, and they may feel scared and helpless. But they can help take care of the person. Taking time to visit the hospital and read to, talk to, and even play music for the patient are important because it's possible that the person may be able to hear what's going on, even if he or she can't respond.

What Happens After a Coma?
Usually, a coma does not last more than a few weeks. Sometimes, however, a person stays in a coma for a long time — even years — and will be able to do very little except breathe on his or her own.

Most people do come out of comas, however. Some of them are able to return to the normal lives they had before they got sick. On TV, someone in a coma usually wakes up right away, looks around, and is able to think and talk normally.

But in real life, this rarely happens. When coming out of a coma, a person will often be confused and can only slowly respond to what's going on. It will take time for the person to start feeling better.

Whether someone fully returns to normal after being in a coma depends on what caused the coma and how badly the brain may have been hurt. Sometimes people who come out of comas are just as they were before — they can remember what happened to them before the coma and can do everything they used to do.

Other people may need therapy to relearn basic things like tying their shoes, eating with a fork or spoon, or learning to walk all over again. They may also have problems with speaking or remembering things.

Over time and with the help of therapists, however, many people who have been in a coma can make a lot of progress. They may not be exactly like they were before the coma, but they can do many things and enjoy life with their family and friends.

Hematuria, or blood in the urine, can be either gross (visible) or microscopic (blood cells only visible through a microscope). Gross hematuria can vary widely in appearance, from light pink to deep red with clots. Although the amount of blood in the urine may be different, the types of conditions that can cause the problem are the same, and require the same kind of workup or evaluation.

People with gross hematuria will visit their doctor with this as a primary complaint. People who have microscopic hematuria, on the other hand, will be unaware of a problem and their condition will most commonly be detected as part of a periodic checkup by a primary-care physician.

What are the causes of blood in urine?

The causes of gross and microscopic hematuria are similar and may result from bleeding anywhere along the urinary tract. One cannot readily distinguish between blood originating in the kidneys, ureters (the tubes that transport urine from the kidneys to the bladder), bladder, or urethra. Any degree of blood in the urine should be fully evaluated by a physician, even if it resolves spontaneously.

Infection of the urine, (often called a urinary tract infection or UTI) stemming either from the kidneys or bladder, is a common cause of microscopic hematuria. Urine is naturally sterile and should not contain bacteria. Kidney and bladder stones can cause irritation and abrasion of the urinary tract, leading to microscopic or gross hematuria. Trauma affecting any of the components of the urinary tract or the prostate can lead to bloody urine. Hematuria can also be associated with renal (kidney) disease, as well as hematologic disorders involving the body's clotting system. Medications that increase the risk of bleeding, such as aspirin, warfarin (Coumadin), or clopidogrel (Plavix), may also lead to bloody urine. Lastly, cancer anywhere along the urinary tract can present with hematuria.

 blast injury
Blast injuries are divided into four classes: primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary.

Primary injuries
Primary injuries are caused by blast overpressure waves, or shock waves. These are especially likely when a person is close to an exploding munition, such as a land mine.[2] The ears are most often affected by the overpressure, followed by the lungs and the hollow organs of the gastrointestinal tract. Gastrointestinal injuries may present after a delay of hours or even days.[2] Injury from blast overpressure is a pressure and time dependent function. By increasing the pressure or its duration, the severity of injury will also increase.

In general, primary blast injuries are characterized by the absence of external injuries; thus internal injuries are frequently unrecognized and their severity underestimated. According to the latest experimental results, the extent and types of primary blast-induced injuries depend not only on the peak of the overpressure, but also other parameters such as number of overpressure peaks, time-lag between overpressure peaks, characteristics of the shear fronts between overpressure peaks, frequency resonance, and electromagnetic pulse, among others. There is general agreement that spalling, implosion, inertia, and pressure differentials are the main mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of primary blast injuries. Thus, the majority of prior research focused on the mechanisms of blast injuries within gas-containing organs/organ systems such as the lungs, while primary blast-induced traumatic brain injury has remained underestimated. Blast lung refers to severe pulmonary contusion, bleeding or swelling with damage to alveoli and blood vessels, or a combination of these.[3] It is the most common cause of death among people who initially survive an explosion.[4]

Secondary injuries
Secondary injuries are caused by fragmentation and other objects propelled by the explosion.[5] These injuries may affect any part of the body and sometimes result in penetrating trauma with visible bleeding. At times the propelled object may become embedded in the body, obstructing the loss of blood to the outside. However, there may be extensive blood loss within the body cavities. Fragmentation wounds may be lethal and therefore many anti-personnel bombs are designed to generate fragments.

Most casualties are caused by secondary injuries.[5] Some explosives, such as nail bombs, are deliberately designed to increase the likelihood of secondary injuries. In other instances, the target provides the raw material for the objects thrown into people, e.g., shattered glass from a blasted-out window or the glass facade of a building.

Tertiary injuries
Displacement of air by the explosion creates a blast wind that can throw victims against solid objects. Injuries resulting from this type of traumatic impact are referred to as tertiary blast injuries. Tertiary injuries may present as some combination of blunt and penetrating trauma, including bone fractures and coup contre-coup injuries.

Young children, because they weigh less than adults, are at particular risk of tertiary injury.

Quaternary injuries
Quaternary injuries, or other miscellaneous named injuries, are all other injuries not included in the first three classes. These include flash burns, crush injuries and respiratory injuries.

Traumatic amputations quickly result in death, and are thus rare in survivors, and are often accompanied by significant other injuries. The rate of eye injury may depend on the type of blast. Psychiatric injury, some of which may be caused by neurological damage incurred during the blast, is the most common quaterna.

UPDATED at 9:32 a.m. on Wednesday: JaQuay Williams commits to Auburn
After covering college football recruiting all these years, I should've known it was too good to be true.
Some mutual friends of JaQuay Williams reached out to me and said the state's No. 1 prospect at WR wanted to talk.
In the last few weeks, JaQuay had been bombarded with phone calls from college head coaches, college assistant coaches, friends, neighbors, and reporters from Rivals, Scout, 247Sports, ESPN and me — as he wrestled with the idea of sticking with his commitment to Auburn or flipping to UGA.
JaQuay had dodged many calls from coaches and nearly all of them from the media. But here it was Tuesday, one day before signing day, and JaQuay was finally read to break his silence. I think it's safe to assume that I was chosen because he was going to flip to UGA.
We arranged to meet at a "secret location" – his training facility near downtown Atlanta. I was actually early for once, arriving

Dr. Craig P. Kaufmann's Ratings
Dr. Kaufmann is a very bright, young doctor who graduated from and is affiliated with Brown University. Dr. Kaufmann is a great listener and has excellent ideas to help sort out troubling issues. He always asks how the medication is working for me and has taken the time over the years to tweak it when necessary. I recommend him highly. P.S. I didn't know how to answer the question about his staff--he doesn't have one--but he is very good about answering calls (not during appointments, of course) or calling back promptly, so I guess he is his own good staff.:-)

Nate and Del's Entryway Clipboards
Flickr Find
Okay, so this idea isn't exactly new. But we so liked how Nate and Del arranged these clipboards above the hooks in their tiny entryway that we wanted to show it to you anyway. It's a nifty small-space solution for managing mail, papers, notes, and all the other paper ephemera that can accumulate near the front door.
To see more of Nate and Del's incredibly stylish, incredibly tiny (350 square feet!) apartment, check out the tour of their home on Flickr.

Cuuuuuuuuuuute! One for each family member? I'd like them to be painted cool colors. :)
I'm sorry, but this doesn't look cute to me at all. I suppose it's resourceful and practical, but even a little attention to aesthetics with the clipboards or the hooks would make a big difference.
I think it's a great idea, but agree with the above comments that doing a lil 'sprucing up' might make a world of difference....colored clipboards perhaps? Or letting the kids decorate them in some way?...
Adding a painted cork to the clip board would make them a little more special and a little more useful.
Genius! I may try this out for me and my husband.
I actually kind of like how they look, in a retro office way. But clamping bits of paper to the board doesn't actually alleviate the clutter--you need to deal with the notes, the menus, the tickets, the flotsam, the jetsam, etc., rather than just looking for a way to display it.
Hmmmm......food for thought. My main source of clutter is all the tiny pieces of paper that accumulate from my purse, pockets, purchases, etc. I've tried keeping them in a box and sorting it out once a week/month, but they are always flying out of it. I like the idea of the clamp--a lot. I'll have to dig around and see if I can find a clipboard to do this with as I am currently on a non-buying kick.
Buy some cheap clipboards on Amazon.com, and cover them with contact paper, or paste on some scrapbook paper....the ideas are endless.
Check out local thrift stores - Goodwill, Salvation Army, etc - for an interesting array of office supplies or things to remake for the office. My son wanted a clipboard and found one for 99 cents. I found a bunch of nice portfolios for about 2 bucks that would have been $20 or more new. Keep an open mind as you search through the bins. Inspiration may strike.

TEAMS: Pittsburgh Steelers, Ohio State Buckeyes
Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post Gazette speculated on Wednesday of last week that rookie tackle Mike Adams might be able to attend the Pittsburgh Steelers third and final OTA session that gets underway this week after being told last Tuesday that players can attend once their course work ends, not necessarily when the semester ends. Unfortunately that will not be the case as Adams will not be in Pittsburgh this week according to Mark Kaboly of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. Adams should still be able to make the final mini-camp that runs June 12-14 as Ohio State graduates next weekend. Like Read more [...]

We will imagine how our lives would be blessed if we lived out God's intention for our church.

|Sermon 12-29-13
The wise men had to return by a different path. What does it mean that we have celebrated a different kind of Christmas?

Come think about some important questions as we consider a New Year together.

Have made this recipe several times. Glaze gives the turkey a beautiful burnished finish. Gravy is pretty darn tasty, too. My favourite part is gradually telling guests that coffee and amaretto (and sage) are the flavours they are enjoying. There's always a quiet surprise, and then we all keep eating.

Turkey Reubens
A traditional deli-style Reuben sandwich is high in fat and sodium because of the generous layers of corned beef, Swiss cheese, and sauerkraut. We've reduced the fat by using turkey, reduced-fat cheese, and reduced-fat dressing. Although it's still fairly high in sodium, our version has about half the sodium of a traditional sandwich.
