As the yoga discipline that combines physical and mental balance, relaxation will be given by both sides, which is very important. It is always better to aim for both sides that only one of them.

The positions are proposed through the asanas can be very beneficial to make clear body and mind, work on the relaxation of the muscles but also on the control of anxiety. In fact, there is a discipline called hatha yoga with its emphasis on this aspect.

The renowned yogi Indra Devi said some time ago that “the science of yoga has a section devoted exclusively to the proper care of the human body and all its functions, from breathing until excretion. That’s how you disconnect from your routine to achieve through your practice.

Since ancient times its primary use has been designed to fight the discomfort and any gastrointestinal problems, from diarrhea, cramping, swelling… But not only its use has focused on the digestive system, but also a good ally of the attacks of arthritis because it helps us to mitigate the effects of this disease due to the diuretic and draining the body you have.

Another common use has been given to turmeric has long been the energizing and restorative nature, which makes it an ideal supplement for people who suffer from exhaustion or low energy. Its great medicinal effect is due to its high antioxidant content are substances that make it an ally to protect our cells from the degenerative effects of the environment.

Precisely these antioxidants are dotting the turmeric a highly recommended type of herb in preventing certain diseases like cancer. That is why their intake is recommended at any time, whether or not we sick and as a preventive tool that is very appropriate. Consume turmeric is generally recommended to prevent breast cancer, skin and colon.

Its effects are not only those, but their consumption is associated with the prevention and control of heartburn, prevention of gallstones and kidney. Its effect is beneficial for purifying the body and is responsible for regulating the levels of bad cholesterol that affect our arteries and is an effective remedy against inflammation. Recent studies have concluded that it may be an important way to prevent the onset of Alzheimers.

Mary Wolff of Mount Sinai School of Medicine (New York) and colleagues conducted the study in 1151 with girls aged 7 to 9 years living in three different regions of the United States.

The three categories of substances tested were largely detectable in urine and high exposures to phthalates and phytoestrogens in particular were associated, albeit modestly, to a premature development of breasts.

A phenol, 2 phytoestrogens, and a subset of phthalates were associated with delayed puberty.

“We believe that there are certain periods of vulnerability in the mammary gland development, and exposure to these chemicals may affect the risk of breast cancer in adulthood. Eating habits may also have an impact” says Dr. Woof. The study confirmed a link that had been shown by previous studies, between the body mass index and early puberty.

Research must continue to determine the importance of different factors, says the researcher.

Prof. Charles Sultan, CHU Montpellier, whose remarks have been collected by the doctor’s Daily, said that these pollutants can affect pubertal development. In certain regions, he says, of “epidemics” of puberty at the age of 8 years are reported. And the ‘window of susceptibility’ organic products tends to grow, for if the age of onset of breast development is more precocious than menarche has not changed much.

Signs and symptoms of potassium deficiency are:

* Muscle weakness, muscle pain,
* Fatigue,
* Confusion and irritability
* Digestive problems,
* Heart problems.

What are your chances of suffering a potassium deficiency?
Although potassium is easily absorbed and available in abundance, some people may suffer from a deficiency of potassium:

* Athletes: because they sweat a lot, athletes lose more potassium than anyone else. Athletes should work with a nutritionist or a doctor specializing in sports to monitor their electrolyte levels and consider taking supplements of potassium,
* People suffering from digestive diseases: Any person suffering from celiac disease, Crohn’s disease or syndrome irritable bowel have more difficulty to absorb potassium,
* The drinking of alcohol: the more you drink alcoholic beverages, you need to urinate more and more so your body lose potassium,
* Persons under medical treatment, on diuretics or laxatives as: because some medications cause Diarrhea or loss of fluid, any person taking the drug daily doses should consult their doctor to ensure that their levels of potassium remain normal.

A cardiac arrest can occur especially if the changes in serum potassium have been abrupt.

Contrary to popular belief, calcium not only prevents osteoporosis. An estimated increase its consumption would also reduce the frequency of hypertension, colon cancer, premenstrual syndrome, baby blues and spasmophilia.
Which calcium intake?

Different ages, contributions are different:

- For children: Dietary advice is about 800 mg of calcium per day.
- To an adolescent: the A.N.C. are from 1200 to 1500 mg per day.
- For adults, the recommended amount varies between 1000 and 1500 mg per day.
Facilitate its absorption

Consuming enough calcium is one thing. But it is still necessary to help him, once in the body, set out on the bones. For this, it is essential to have good vitamin D, which we will return in the liver, eggs, tuna, sardines, salmon. Regular physical activity and sunlight also contribute to a better absorption of calcium.
Making milk more digestible

It is quite normal for most adults have trouble digesting milk as infants. It is not in itself an intolerance to milk, but its sugar: lactose. The latter, to be digested, requires the presence of an intestinal enzyme, lactase, whose activity decreases in all mammals after weaning. If sensitive people do not want to give as much milk, they simply do not drink on an empty stomach but with a solid meal to delay its passage through the stomach. Better to choose a qu’écrémé whole milk, the presence of lipids favoring digestion of lactose. Or buy the trade a specific depleted milk lactose.
There are not that in milk

Dairy products are of course the champions of calcium with lead, the hard cheeses, followed by spreading cheese, yogurt, milk, ice cream. But calcium is also present in quantities in shellfish, egg yolk, nuts, soybeans, dry beans, watercress, parsley, cabbage. The mineral waters with a calcium content between 100 mg and 500 mg per liter (Hépar, Contrex, Salvetat, Quézac …) associated with dairy products, are also an interesting alternative for those watching their waistlines.
Examples of equivalences

300 mg calcium equivalent:

- Bread: 500g wholemeal bread, 2 kg of white bread
- Dairy: ¼ liter of milk (one cup) 300 g cottage cheese, 2 yogurts, 80 to 150 g gromage soft (pie …), 50 g of pressed cheese cooked (Emmental …)
- Fruits and vegetables: 500 g of vegetables, 500 g of dried fruit, 1 kg oranges 1 kg of fresh fruit
- Meat and fish: 3 kg of meat, 1 kg of fish
- Drink one liter of water Wattwiller

The preparation of honey begins in the same plant. The nectaries, two glands located near the base of the flower, are secreted into the nectar that bees extract with their long mouths. So, helped with his tongue, bees seeking nectar, keeping it in their crops or honey bags to return to the hive below. Incredibly, a bee must visit a million flowers to prepare only one hundred grams of honey.

Over the centuries, honey has been praised for its antibiotic properties and used in many pharmaceutical preparations to treat from rickets, anemia, inflammation of the bowel, constipation and stomach problems. In addition, honey poultices placed on burns and wounds, have served to provide rapid relief of pain, and itching.

In material of beauty, honey has been for centuries an important ingredient in many creams and masks.

It is incredible to imagine that the parasites are capable of curing several human diseases, and even some disorders.

It has been discovered, for example, that within the small intestine is a parasite round, which you may be able to cure people who have asthma.

There is even a pig parasite, which although at present is in research, could greatly assist in the healing of colon disease and intestine.

Thus we can state that parasites are not only our body but also for animals, which either studied can help us to eliminate many diseases.

One problem, though it does not seem, is now trying to eliminate any parasite that exists in our body so that could help are not there to protect us. And thus, the diseases come faster in our body.

The first treatment attempt with parasites is to place the microscopic worm on the skin of the patient, to make it into the body and proceeded to reach in order to combat infection.

We know that some parasites living inside the body for a period of 15 to 20 years, but still seeks to discover is what is the way we can help eliminate the disease.

So far it’s good to know that treatment exists to cure some patients and that with rapid advances in medicine is uncertain whether we can find some time to fully experience the qualities of these bodies.

There are also medications long-term control. These are used continuously to control chronic symptoms and prevent asthma episodes. These include inhaled glucocorticoids. These are anti-inflammatory drugs are considered the most effective. Inhaled glucocorticoids help reduce the frequency of asthma episodes and reduce the dose of other drugs used to relieve symptoms. Because they travel directly into the airways is a risk of side effects is greatly reduced. Can still cause some problems such as thrush in the mouth and pharynx, atrophy of the muscles of the larynx which causes speech problems caused by irritation and coughing. Using low doses or a holding chamber are reduced these effects. Inhaled glucocorticoids may also affect the growth of some children. In addition there may be a slight increased risk of skin bruising and it becomes thin and susceptible to damage. The use of spacer is recommended as well as mouthwash and gargle after throwing water used. This reduces the amount of glucocorticoid that can be swallowed and absorbed through the digestive system. It also reduces the possibility of infections such as candidiasis already mentioned and the irritation of the mouth and throat.

Other drugs are long-term control beta-2 agonists. These are bronchodilators whose action can last up to 18 hours. Some of these are salmeterol (Begles Serevent INASP Betamican) and formoterol (Oxis, Neblik, Foradil). These drugs are used in combination with inhaled glucocorticoids.

The leukotriene modifiers or inhibitors are other medicines for long-term control. Leukotrienes are substances secreted by cells in the lungs during an asthma attack that cause inflammation in the lining of the airways. Some are leukotriene modifiers montelukast (Singulair) and zafirlukast (Accolate). Usually are not as effective as inhaled glucocorticoids but are an option when there is a mild attack of asthma and want to avoid the use of glucocorticoids. Leukotriene modifiers are also used in combination with inhaled corticosteroids or other medicines to help prevent asthma episodes.

The chromones – including cromolyn (Intal, Frenal) and nedocromil (Tilade, Ildor, Brionil, Cetinil), inhibit the degranulation of mast cells, immune cells that release histamine which in turn takes part in the inflammatory process. In some patients these drugs can control asthma and prevent asthma attacks of mild to moderate. In some cases they can help prevent exercise-induced asthma when used one hour before strenuous physical activity.

Methylxanthines (theophylline and aminophylline) act as bronchodilators. Its mode of action is unknown and at high doses can cause side effects such as headache, nausea, vomiting, severe abdominal pain, diarrhea, reflux, confusion, fast or irregular heartbeat, nervousness and even coma. The doses of these drugs must be tailored to each person through blood tests. Currently these drugs are falling into disuse.
Immunotherapy is another treatment. This is used for desensitization injections against allergens that can cause an asthma attack. They are administered as a vaccine the same substances that cause asthma, but in small quantities so that the body gets used and not reject them. This is a long-term therapy based on subcutaneous injections. The desired effects may take two or three years to produce.

Anti-IgE monoclonal antibodies – In allergies the body produces antibodies called IgE that attack substances that generally are harmless, like pollen, dust mites or hair from domestic animals, causing the typical symptoms of this condition . A drug called omalizumab (Xolair) blocks the action of these antibodies and thus reduces the number of episodes of asthma caused by allergies. This medicine is provided based on injections. Among the risks is the possibility of a severe reaction that can produce up to two hours after injection. It is also believed that this drug may be related to cancer development. Pregnant women should or lactating should consult their doctor and that Xolair may cause complications.

Asthma Symptoms

Caution: Asthma is a serious condition and is a medical emergency. If you or someone around you suffers from acute asthma attacks consult your doctor or go to an emergency room quickly.

Symptoms of asthma include coughing, wheezing, runny in the form of phlegm, and dyspnea or fatigue (short breath). The severity of symptoms varies from a whistle may occur to a lesser severe difficulty breathing. Sometimes we think of asthma as a condition annoying but not life threatening. However, thousands of people die each year because of an asthma attack.

Asthma symptoms occur more frequently during the night. In some cases, asthma presents with long periods in which there are no symptoms until a crisis occurs or what many people call an asthma attack. In other cases the symptoms are more or less continuously, producing occasionally a sharpening of these. There are cases in which only show a persistent cough and tightness in the chest area. In some children appear to be a recurring bronchitis, coughing and phlegm without fatigue on breathing or other symptoms that occur in adults.

Incidence
Asthma has a higher incidence in children than in adults. It is estimated that in children the incidence is about eleven percent. However, in some cities with a high incidence of environmental pollution can be up to twenty five percent. About 80 percent of children with asthma develop symptoms before five years of age. By school age is more common among men. Fortunately, the trend is toward healing and that among adults the incidence is reduced to between four and six percent. People who were breastfed as children have a lower incidence of asthma.

Diagnosing Asthma
The diagnosis of asthma may be difficult due to the variety of symptoms and the need to rule out other conditions that can cause some similar symptoms. Conditions that can cause asthma-like symptoms include pulmonary emphysema, the beginnings of congestive heart failure and a vocal cord dysfunction known as episodic laryngeal dysfunction that affects mostly women. To reach a diagnosis is used in many cases to a medical history and various tests. One test used is known as pulmonary function test which determines how much air enters and leaves the lungs when we breathe.

To measure lung function are mainly used two instruments. One of them is called a spirometer and the other as meter peak. Another test used is the bronchial provocation. In this methacholine used an agent known to cause asthma. If you have asthma this agent will cause a small constriction of the airways, which can be measured with a pulmonary function test. In young children can not perform pulmonary function tests and diagnosis is done by careful collection and analysis of medical records and observation of patient response to an inhaled bronchodilator medication. If the patient improves with this drug is as safe as it is asthma. Exposure to cigarette smoke.

• Exposure to asthma triggers present in the workplace. These are chemicals used in agriculture, beauty salons and in the manufacture of electronic components, paints, steel and plastics.
• Having the parent (or both) asthmatics
• Low birth weight
• Obesity
• GE Reflux

In people whose asthma began before or two years of age whose mother also suffers or suffered from asthma, as well as those with a positive allergy test in which there are persistently impaired respiratory function the probability that the asthma is sustained after arrival adulthood is higher.

Complications of asthma
Allergy to which often starts asthma can be gradually replaced by inflammation. Over the years this can lead to tissue destruction of the bronchi. In these individuals occurs because of chronic inflammation, an irreversible obstructive airway and pulmonary function may decrease rapidly.

CAUSES

The germs involved are numerous:

• Bacteria : Escherichia coli, Shigella, Salmonella.
• Virus : enterovirus, adenovirus.
• Parasites : Entamoeba histolytica amoebae-, Giardia lamblia.
• Fungi : Candida albicans

The food toxic infection also common, is caused by the ingestion of a toxin produced by a bacterial germ rate, which typically originates from consumption of spoiled food. The toxin-producing microorganisms are staphylococci, clostridia, E. Coli.

The indiscriminate use of certain drugs, mainly antibiotics, laxatives, and some toxic irritant foods such as alcohol, arsenic, lead, mercury and others can cause severe diarrhea. Less common are food allergies, appendicitis, gastrointestinal bleeding and others.

SYMPTOMS

The main symptoms include abdominal cramps, feeling urgent bowel movements, nausea and vomiting, along with the emission of soft or watery stool, sometimes accompanied by mucus or blood. There may be fever and muscle aches. In severe cases, symptoms of dehydration.

TREATMENT

The treatment of acute diarrhea consists primarily of managing a soft diet and astringent (made from rice, carrots, apples, bananas, chicken) and if there is dehydration, give plenty of fluids orally or intravenously depending on the seriousness of the case.

Most episodes of acute diarrhea of viral or bacterial cause does not require specific treatment because they are self-limiting. In cases caused by parasites or if the infection is widespread, antimicrobial treatment is needed. Nonspecific antidiarrheal preparations, abused in many cases are rarely indicated.

In acute gastroenteritis are unnecessary and may even be as harmful as it prolongs the course of the disease in some cases when produced by Salmonella or Shigella uncomplicated. In Chronic diarrhea with antidiarrheal treatment can mask the process and delay the correct treatment of the causative agent of the disease.

REMEMBER…

Acute diarrhea can be accompanied by signs and symptoms such as high fever or condition of the general state, blood in stool, painful bowel movements or intense thirst, dry mucous

Persistent diarrhea or worsening of signs and symptoms associated with it may require a microbiological examination of stool and in some cases, antibiotic treatment and even hospitalization.

The presence of chronic diarrhea suggests a serious condition that requires monitoring by a specialist. Often accompanied by weight loss and anemia.
