Don’t Get Too Worried About Cancer

Posted by Rais | Health | Saturday 22 August 2009 7:44 am

cancer2Far too many people get far too worried about getting cancer, and this adds unnecessary and unhelpful stress, real stress, and stress that could actually cause health problems, perhaps not cancer, but such negative biofeedback is not good for anybody.

We have a mass media psychological crisis going on these days in America when it comes to cancer; there are far too many Big Pharma advertisements on TV, and far too many ads from cancer research nonprofits, attempting to scare people into donating. Yes, I know that bad news travels fast, and therefore, this is why they are using this method, unfortunately, it is scaring people into ill-health.

Yes, maybe medical insurance companies or even ObamaCare might also benefit from all this, but it’s not right what we are doing to our citizenry on this issue. Indeed, cancer is a horrible disease, and depending on the type of cancer far too serious to even wish to talk about it, and yes, we should have a national dialogue and 15 Billion Dollars in cancer research spent in the next 5-years to wipe it out.

10 Reasons For Not Drinking Softdrink

Posted by Rais | Health | Friday 21 August 2009 3:13 am

softdrink1There are several reasons why Softdrink can damage our health. I have some articles that i get from several sources:
hopefully useful.

1. Softdrink depleted water in our body. Like the diuretic which does not provide water for our bodies, but even deplete it. Processing high level of sugar in softdrinks requires a large amount of water in our bodies. To replace this water, people should drink 8-12 glasses of water for every glass of Softdrink.

2. Softdrink never to lose thirsty feelings because Softdrink is not the water needed by the body. With no permanent water supply in our bodies to continue - will cause the chronic cellular dehydration, a condition that weakens the body on the serious level. In turn will cause a weakening immune system and cause various diseases.

3. Level of high phosphate contents in softdrinks can destroy important mineral in the body. Softdrink made of pure water can also destroy the essential minerals in the body. Lack of minerals that can cause serious heart disease (magnesium deficiency), osteoporosis (calcium deficiency) and more. Most vitamins do not work in the body, without the minerals.

What Is Diabetes?

diabetes1Diabetes is an endocrine disorder that is an imbalance in the way the body metabolizes carbohydrates, fat and proteins. Diabetes expresses itself in high blood sugar.

If the blood sugar is not controlled then what happens next? Diabetes can affect every organ in your body.

Kidney Failure - Over years the kidneys tend to fail if the blood glucose is not kept under control. It is usually a slow process and can go undetected for years. Early signs are too much protein found in the urine which can be found by a lab test in the doctor’s office.

Another complication could be high blood pressure; if you keep the blood pressure under control then you will also help your kidneys.

What to do? Take control of your diabetes. Do let any of this happen to you or your family member.

The Controversial Cancer Cure - Asparagus

Posted by Rais | Health | Wednesday 19 August 2009 11:12 am

cancer1All of us fear cancer. Why? The reason is many of us who have heard of someone having cancer have died. However, not all did. You may have heard of someone who was cured medically by doctors. Or you might have heard of miracle cancer survivors who were cured by natural means - which is often controversial. One of those controversial cancer cure or cancer treatment is the intake of asparagus. This is nothing new. It has been rumored that asparagus can cure cancer and has saved countless lives. Before we go on further, let us give cancer a bit of introduction.

Well, cancer is the out of control abnormal growth of abnormal cells. Our cells normally grow, divide and then die at some time. On the other hand, cancer cells do not follow this pattern. They continue to grow and divide thus creating more abnormal cells. Not only that, these abnormal cancer cells attack other healthy cells which in turn make them cancer cells as well (much like zombies creating other zombies by biting them…). Cancer cells are abnormal because of the stated things above plus the fact that their DNA is damaged. Each of our cells has DNA (the “thing” which defines a cell and our body as a whole combined…) and when damaged to a certain degree becomes cancerous. That is why cigarette smoking is bad for us since it can damage our cells’ DNA and will cause cancer.
