Since the living standard grows fast, people care about their health condition more and more.

It means when you do exercise, exercise upper part of body once then lower part of body in turn rather than finishing all exercises for one part of body first and then do exercises for the other part of body.

Make sure the intensity of your workouts. Only enough intensity would kill calories in your body. And between each group of work

outs, no longer than 1 minute rest is necessary. Stretching your muscle after finishing all exercise is also necessary.

Keeping good mood is another basic factor for fat loss. So replace doing only one cardio by more workouts, you’ll find out that it’s joyful and interesting. It won’t be boring any more. And after while as you get thinner, you would get more motion for fat loss or fitness. Additionally, you should do some outdoor activities too besides indoor workouts. To get more joys from

Healthy Cholesterol Today Means a Better Brain Tomorrow | Mental Health

April 30th, 2010 annie No comments

You probably associate healthy cholesterol levels with a lowered risk of heart disease and stroke. And you’d be right.

But not totally right.

Healthy cholesterol also protects the brain – years before you even thought you needed to worry about something like dementia.

That’s the finding of the 40 year study conducted at Kaiser Permanente Northern California and published in the August 2009 journal Dementia & Geriatrics Cognitive Disorders. 

Thirty Years In Advance…

healthy cholesterol today means a better brain tomorrow mental health

healthy cholesterol today means a better brain tomorrow mental health

The link between heart and brain health is not new, but this is the first study to compare cholesterol levels with a later onset of dementia. And not just high cholesterol, but borderline cholesterol as well.

Researchers tracked 9,752 men and women in Northern California who had health evaluations in the sixties and early seventies when they were between the ages of 40 and 45. Four decades later, medical records were examined for the incidence of Alzheimer’s disease and vascular dementia.

hose participants who had high total cholesterol in their 40s – 240 mg or greater – increased their risk of Alzheimer’s by 66%. For those who merely had borderline high cholesterol – 200-239 mg – the risk was still 50% higher.

While Alzheimer’s is what we usually think of when we talk about dementia, those people with borderline high cholesterol also had a 52% greater risk of developing vascular dementia – the second most common type of dementia.(1)

Study author Alina Solomon, MD

Title › Healthy Cholesterol Today Means a Better Brain Tomorrow | Mental Health

, commented, “High mid-life cholesterol increased the risk of Alzheimer’s disease regardless of midlife diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity, smoking and late-life stroke.”(2)

The Californians in the study were an ethnically diverse group, including African Americans, Caucasians, Latinos and Asians, but “the association between high cholesterol and dementia was the same across all ethnic groups,” noted lead researcher, Rachael Whitmer.(3) 

The Disease of a Lifetime

These results are sobering since more than 106 million Americans have borderline high cholesterol levels. Dr. Gregg Fonarow, cardiologist and professor of medicine at UCLA, comments, “if anyone was ever on the fence about controlling their lipid profiles, this could be further reason to bring your numbers to an optimal level.”(4)

Since 30 years or more can pass between the onset of elevated cholesterol levels and the development of dementia, this is a risk factor that can definitely be modified. Lead researcher of the study Whitmer calls dementia the “disease of a lifetime.”(5)

You don’t just wake up one day with Alzheimer’s or vascular dementia – they develop over a long period of time. And that means the window for prevention is now. 

Two Types of Dementia

One of the hallmarks of Alzheimer’s is the accumulation of an abnormal protein in the brain called amyloid plaques. Researchers hope to use brain scans and test whether cholesterol-lowering drugs will prevent that buildup.

Vascular dementia is a bit different from Alzheimer’s and has more to do with the blood vessels in the brain. It can result when an artery in the brain is completely blocked, which may or may not cause a stroke. It can also be caused by a narrowing of blood vessels in the brain, reducing blood flow and starving portions of the brain of oxygen.

Risk factors for vascular dementia include high blood pressure, diabetes, smoking and high cholesterol.(6) 

Cholesterol-Lowering Foods

Besides being aware of lifestyle diseases that may contribute to future dementia, what can you do to lower your cholesterol?

The Mayo Clinic recommends the top five foods for lowering cholesterol, which is a positive change you can make. Try adding these things to your diet:

›› Oatmeal – 10 grams of soluble fiber a day will decrease cholesterol. 1 ½ cups of oatmeal has 6 grams of fiber, so add some fruit to make up the difference.

›› Walnuts – these have been shown to significantly reduce cholesterol and you only need a handful a day. Other nuts, such as almonds, peanuts and pecans will work as well. Try adding them to cereal or salad.

›› Fish and Omega 3s – two servings per week of salmon, sardines, herring or mackerel will give you the protective effects of omega 3 fatty acids. If you don’t like fish, you can use supplements or flaxseed.

›› Olive Oil – 2 tablespoons a day can lower your LDL cholesterol without bothering your HD

Diabetes Can be Cured-Scientists Agree | Diseases

23.6 Million Americans have diabetes in some form

Some call diabetes the “Silent Killer.” Many people are pre-diabetic (borderline) and some have reached the chronic stage: Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes—and they don’t even know it!

The American Diabetes Association says that 23.6 million adults and children (about 8% of the U.S. population has some form of diabetes.

An alarming 5.7 million people are undiagnosed diabetics, and 5.7 million are pre-diabetic.

For the most part, th

e medical community believes that diabetes is incurable, despite authenticated studies and testimonials showing that thousands of people around the world are free of all symptoms and are back to living normal lives.

Is there really a cure for diabetes?

So how can this be? If one person claims to be cured, if two or three claim to be cured, if hundreds claim to be cured by using natural processes—why isn’t medical science paying attention?

The truth is that only a fraction of healthcare

Too close to home

In my situation I have seen one good friend, a type 2 diabetic, develop congestive heart failure, kidney and liver complications. His slide down hill was rapid, and thank the Lord; the end came quickly for him.

Another family friend had one leg amputated as a result of poor blood circulation (a diabe

tic side-effect). He was awaiting a prosthetic leg when his medical team suggested that it may be necessary to amputate the other leg.

Closer to home, my wife was informed after a routine checkup that she was pre-diabetic. Well no way was this tough old gal going to live with that. God bless her, she went on a strict, low carbohydrate, no sugar diet, and began working out at the gym. In just three months her next blood sugar test—hemoglobin ALC reading had dropped from 6.8 to 6.0. 7.0 is considered chronic diabetes. An unexpected bonus is that she went from a dress size of 18 to a size 8!

Like I said if one person can do it or a thousand can do it, then why can’t you? Well that depends on which column of statistics you want to be on.

Four helpful tips

Here are just a few natural tips that she is following:

›› Exercise regularly. If you can’t get to a gym try a brisk walk several times each week.

›› Take two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar mixed in a glass of water. Flavor it if you wish—just don’t use sugar.

›› Cinnamon is also thought to be helpful on correcting a number of ills. My wife is taking cinnamon capsules, but two teaspoons of the powder works too.

›› Cut way back on the carbs and eliminate sugar all together.

These tips are just the tip of the iceberg. A great deal more information is available. This could be some of the most valuable, live-saving information you’ll come across. Follow the link below to get a real education on diabetes. Learn how many in the medical and healthcare field are appalled that it is taking the medical community so long to get with it! Drugs and injections of insulin are not a cure. The merely treat the symptoms.

Lung Injury and Disease Resulting From Asbestos Exposure | Cancer

April 30th, 2010 annie No comments

Asbestos dust exposure can result in the development of disease.  This fact has been a strong impetus for research.  One interesting study involving the disease development in the lungs of rats is called, “Hydroxyl radicals are formed in the rat lung after asbestos instillation in vivo.” By Schapira RM, Ghio AJ, Effros RM, Morrisey J, Dawson CA, Hacker AD – Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Medical College of Wisconsin, Milwaukee – Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol. 1994 May;

lung injury and disease resulting from asbestos exposure cancer

10(5):573-9.  Here is an excerpt: “The hydroxyl radical (.OH) has been implicated as a cause of lung injury following asbestos exposure. However, despite in vitro evidence associating asbestos with .OH production, there has been no demonstration of such generation in vivo.

We tested the hypothesis that .OH is formed in the lungs of rats exposed to asbestos in vivo by using salicylate as a free radical trap. Asbestos was instilled intratracheally, and control rats were sham-exposed. Six to se

There was significantly more 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid in asbestos-exposed lungs compared with control lungs (2.32 +/- 0.360 nmol/lung versus 0.292 +/- 0.125, respectively, P < 0.001) and 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (9.69 +/- 1.65 nmol/lung versus 2.63 +/- 0.274, respectively, P < 0.001).

onstrate that the dihydroxybenzoic acid was actually formed in the lungs, the lungs from asbestos-exposed and control rats were isolated and perfused with either salicylate or 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid. In the lungs perfused with salicylate, 2,3- and 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acids were detectable only in asbestos-exposed lungs. In the isolated lungs perfused with 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid, there was no significant difference in 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid between asbestos-exposed and control lungs. We conclude that asbestos stimulates .OH production in lungs in vivo.”

Another interesting article is called, “The consequences of exposure to asbestos dust in a wartime gas-mask factory.” By Jones JS, Smith PG, Pooley FD, Berry G, Sawle GW, Madeley RJ, Wignall BK, Aggarwal A – IARC Sci Publ. 1980;(30):637-53.  Here is an excerpt: “This further study of wartime gas-mask workers who were exposed to asbestos dust has shown that among those who worked with crocidolite there is a considerable excess of cases of mesothelioma, a more modest excess of bronchial carcinoma, but no excess of any other type of malignant disease. A dose-response relationship is established in the mesothelioma and bronchial carcinoma patients. It is not possible to base any conclusions on the limited data available for the small number of people exposed to chrysotile for a maximum period of five months. We believe that the identification and measurement of fibres in autoptic lung tissue from patients with accurately known occupational histories of asbestos dust exposure is useful, and a similar study on a population exclusively exposed to chrysotile would be of considerable interest.”

A third article worth looking at is called, “Predictions of mortality from mesothelial tumours in asbestos factory workers.” By M L Newhouse, G Berry – Br J Ind Med 1976;33:147-151.  Here is an excerpt: “Abstract – Using the accumulated data on deaths from mesothelial tumours among cohorts of male and female factory workers at a London asbestos textile factory, the mortality from this cause up to the year 2000 AD has been predicted. The limitations of the methods used are pointed out, but it is estimated that for men the mortality due to mesothelial tumours will be between 7% and 11% of the total mortality and somewhat higher for women. The highest number of deaths from mesothelial tumours will occur during the 1980s, thereafter the numbers will decline because of the decreasing size of the cohort resulting from general mortality.”

• Breast lift– Often times, the breasts can sag after pregnancy or breast-feeding because the skin has stretched during pregnancy and, for a variety of reasons, doesn’t regain its elasticity or firmness. In performing a “breast lift”, there are several approaches that a skilled surgeon can take to restore the look and feel of your breasts.
