It is believed that alcohol accelerates the metabolism of cancer cells and this causes it to develop a more aggressive cancer, experts say.

The new study was conducted by doctors in Holland Center and Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research recently published in the journal Cancer. It pointed out that excessive consumption of alcohol, especially beer, cause it to quickly develop a highly aggressive prostate cancer, whose chances of survival are less than 50%.

The study involved more than 10,000 men in the Netherlands, the United States and Germany, and found that those who drank a lot, about four glasses of hard liquor, five or more days a week, were more than twice as likely as those who drank than the disease.

“Most prostate cancers are low grade, ie, they grow very slowly, and all the men who have lived up to ten years. Most men die of something else. With prostate cancer of high grade, the ten-year survival is only 50%, “said Kristal Allan, director of research.

The most common prostate cancer is so slow that it is much easier to treat and patients who survive him. If the cancer is described as highly aggressive, it develops within six months and is more difficult to save a life.

In this study, the researchers did not determine the effect of alcohol consumption on prostate cancer, but rather to evaluate the efficacy of finasteride, a drug prescribed to prevent and treat prostate cancer.

The scientists found that excessive consumption of alcohol reduces the effect of finasteride for prevention and treatment of cancer.

“This time not only means that those with alcohol problems are more prone to this cancer, if not the drugs prescribed to them will not have the same effects. This doubles your chances of death, “concluded Kristal.

Being more sensitive skin than other parts of the body, should pay more attention when removing hair from the face area. There are several tips to make your skin suffer less shaving.

1. Shower or bathe before shaving. Wash your face and neck with warm water and mild soap to help remove oils and perspiration that inhibit water penetration into the skin.

While facial hair can be as thick as a copper wire, apply warm water causes hair to expand, making it smoother and easier to shave.

The force required to shave their beards falls to 70% after application of warm water for about two minutes.

How to Get a Good Shave

2. Apply a reasonable amount of shaving cream. Although water is the main softening of facial hair, it absorbs water quickly evaporates, leaving hair in its original rigid state.

The shaving cream provides a protective layer that prevents evaporation and keeps the hair soft beard for shaving. Furthermore, the lubricating characteristics of shaving cream to reduce friction between the razor and skin, improving razor glide for a smoother shave.

3. Perform slow movements and light. Rinse the razor frequently to prevent accumulation of hair and shaving cream on the edge of the razor and cartridge.

4. Leave the most difficult areas for the final. Shave cheeks, sides of face and neck first. Usually, growing thicker hairs on the chin and around the lips.

Shave these areas last, as they remain covered by the shaving cream will soften longer hairs over the area.

5. After shaving, rinse face and neck with warm water and dry with smooth skin. After each shave, rinse the razor and shake off excess water before storing. Do not clean the knife with anything other than water, this can damage the edge.

A researcher from the University of Amherst is making systematic physical education classes outdoors and thirty minutes at preschool, to assess whether weight problems or suffer health and prevent suffering from heart disease, high blood pressure and diabetes Type 2.

Junk food, video games and television are among the factors that are causing an epidemic of obesity in preschool children. Sofia Alhassan, University of Massachusetts, is investigating how to radically change this trend by immersing preschoolers in a program to make physical activity a fun activity.

While kids imitate animals and crawling under a giant parachute, Alhassan investigate whether the systematic practice of school exercise program can be linked to encouraging children to be active during the day, which will have an effect very important for your health.

According to Alhassan, the critical age range for the development of obesity in children has been found between 3 and 5 years. Children begin to gain weight after age 6, during the growth process. If they do that before, the risk of obesity increases so future potential.

Given this evidence one of the lead agencies in the area, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA, according to its acronym in English) United States Government convened an expert committee to evaluate the scientific rigor of published papers on the subject .

A study by a group of scientists from the School of Biochemistry and Biological Sciences at the Universidad Nacional del Litoral (UNL), Santa Fe, Argentina and the Tufts School of Medicine in Boston, has attracted the attention of U.S. authorities.

The study has found that bisphenol A, is released when heating food in some plastic containers such as bottles, either in microwave or double boiler and can cause tumors.

The research was published recently in Endocrinology and commented on by the prestigious journal Nature.

The study found that after exposing mice to low doses in pregnancy and study of the chemical changes that occur in their offspring, “Bisphenol A, long-term effects in the mammary gland that are evident long after exposure has ended.”

In adults, exposure to BPA (bisphenol A) may not be harmful. But the fetus during pregnancy and the newborn are much more sensitive. This stage is critical for growth, development and differentiation of organs and tissues.

A group of scientists from the University of Southampton (southern England) studied the effects of additives on children’s behavior changes in a group of nearly 300 children, 153 of them in 3 years and another 144, 8 and 9.

Children were given in some cases two different drink mixes that include various additives, in others a placebo.

Among these substances contained the preservative sodium benzoate (E211), used in soft drinks as “Pepsi Max”, “Fanta” or “Sprite” and artificial coloring E110, E102, E122, E124, E129 and E104, present in many sweets and sweets consumed daily by British children.

For example, the E110 is used in corn snacks “Doritos” and E122 in the “Fanta”.

It is not the first research that links between additives and hyperactivity in children, but its importance is that this time has been studied in children older than three years and not all with the conduct disorder.

They detected evidence of hyperactive children who had consumed drinks that include additives, such as a rowdy behavior, loss of concentration, inability to play with one toy or complete a task and increased talkativeness.

The mixture A, which included higher levels of additives, caused “significant adverse effects” in all three year olds, who, however, reacted more variable to the mix B, containing the daily average of additives consumed by British children.

Children in the older group showed a significant adverse effect when they took either combination.

The British Food Control Agency (FSA) has rejected calls for a ban on these additives, but has issued a warning to parents about the risks of these ingredients if their children show signs of hyperactivity.

The FSA says it is for the European Union authorities to legislate on these additives.

In presenting the report’s findings, the research director, Jim Stevenson, found that early action could be taken against artificial coloring, but that would take longer to phase out the use of sodium benzoate as a preservative.

The global additives business is valued at more than 25,000 million dollars annually, according to British newspaper “The Guardian”

Aerating well the body is essential to keep it healthy. And the way we can to H elping our bodies to absorb enough from oxigneo is proper breathing. Most people are used to breathe in a wrong way because they are tainted by bad habits such as stress, lack of exercise, poor posture, a contaminated environment or affected by snuff, and so on.

It is necessary to oxygenate the body and many body functions that depend on this element.

A good breath:

• Improvement and frotalece the nervous system, the brain stays healthy (which is the first recipient), the spine, the nerve centers and nerves.
• Relaxes and loosens the body, allowing it to absorb nutrients effectively and helping to eliminate toxic wastes in the body.
• Rejuvena glands, especially the pituitary and pineal.
• Breaks down waste material in the body
• Helps maintain body temperature.
• Assists in the proper combustion of food.
• It helps to have an adequate management of emotions and altered states such as anxiety, stress, nervousness, anger, depression, ectétera.
• Indispensable for the construction of the structures of the body.
• Promotes the increase in the amount of blood. This helps to eliminate toxins from the system.
• Rejuvenates the skin, becomes softer and reduces the appearance of facial wrinkles.
• Mitigate the changes or imbalances of our vital energy.
• Helps control your weight because the extra supply of oxygen helps burn fat esxtras.

Through the movement of the diaphragm during deep breathing exercises, abdominal organs such as stomach, intestine, liver and pancreas, they receive a massage. In addition, a proper movement of the diaphragm provides a healthy and delicious heart massage, which stimulates blood circulation in cardiovascular oórganos.

Proper Breathing

There are many breathing techniques. Yogic Breathing, for example, is slow and deep, and reduces the workload on the heart also helps strengthen the lungs, to irrigate oxygen to the brain and help weight down, so as to loosen the body and focus on deep relaxation.

The practice of yoga is recommended to learn to breathe properly, but there are other techniques you can learn how to abdominal breathing. The Kundalini Yoga, for example, teaches this kind of long, deep breath as the first step in learning to breathe they demnominan of Fire, as this helps you become aware of the full distension and contraction of the diaphragm.

However, if you prefer something very “home” or simple, with that walk, go swimming or bike or do some physical activity daily for at least 20 minutes is needed to make your body absorb the necessary oxygen.

If you want to know if you breathe well, you can see Breathing technique, which has become fashionable in the United States. There are some pages on the Internet where you can take a test and see if you breathe properly.

What causes osteoporosis?

• An inadequate diet, low in important vitamins and minerals like calcium, phosphorus and vitamin D.
• The decline in estrogen at menopause.
• diets contained excessive animal protein as meat, eggs, cheese, etc. These diets cause calcium excretion through the urine.
• The lack of physical activity causes demineralization of the body.
• The imbalance in the levels of the hormone calcitonin, which controls calcium levels.
• Medications such as antibiotics, anti-inflammatories, birth control pills, steroids and corticosteroids can make a person prone to osteoporosis.
• toxic habits such as excessive coffee, alcohol or refined sugar.
• Imbalances in the thyroid or parathyroid.

Natural Remedies:

There is no better cure than prevention. And to start, nothing like a good diet, which must be careful since we are in the womb, as from this very young age the bones begin to form and require no doubt that “support” the mother feeding still provides us while we grow and develop.

However, never too late to take matters into our system and help bone to be strong and healthy. So if we give you a list of beneficial foods for bones should not miss in your diet:

RECOMMENDED FOOD: sprouts, almonds, walnuts, dark green leafy vegetables, seaweed, alfalfa, yeast, pollen, soy sprouts and fresh cheeses, tofu (prevents softening of the bones), ginseng (this root strengthens the system immune, and protects and prevents deterioration of bones and teeth), chickpeas, beans, lentils, lemon and orange.

EXERCISE: there are so many benefits of exercise on bone and general health that we should not let a day pass without moving and strength for at least 30 minutes. It is not necessary to have a set routine, you can get away with walking, jogging, dancing, swimming or doing home exercises that you enjoy at home exercises for flexibility, but keep in mind that outdoor exercises are very beneficial because in addition to contributing to good oxygenation helps to absorb vitamin D from sunlight, the macula is essential for bone health.

Emotional causes of osteoporosis:

The bones are the backbone of the body, without them we could not move. The body speaks what we feel and think so, osteoporosis reflects a mood which prevailed in the sense of not being supported in life, or feel that our life has no firm structure in which to trust feel actually incurred.

If you want to eradicate osteoporosis or weak bones, you might consider that you are mostly your best support in life and who better knows how to give a structure that really satisfies. So maybe if you feel more confident in you, to be more firm with the things you want and trust that life provides everything you need if you have really strong will. You never too late to begin to structure the lives of our greatest pleasure there is always something, if you look closely, from which you can begin to move your life with more firmness, strength and great flexibility.

The study was funded by the Regional Program of Assistance to the Sector herbalist and the National Institute of Yerba Mate (INYM) of Argentina, and led by Luis Brumovsky chemical engineer from the Universidad Nacional de Misiones.

This is a pioneering research as it is the first to be made with the mate priming infusion made with the mate and is consumed as tea.

According to their results, the infusion has a high amount of polyphenols that improves the human body’s natural defenses, protecting against cell damage and thus preventing the deterioration of the body and the development of disease.

Brumovsky established in the study that the major polyphenol intake of the 25 that make up the yerba mate is obtained with 50 grams of grass and half a liter of water at 70 degrees Celsius, which is achieved between 500 and 600 milligrams of antioxidants, a number much higher than that obtained with the same amount of green or black tea, for example.

This discovery may lead to the expansion of the mate, especially in first world markets, because in them there is a growing demand for antioxidants and natural products.

According to the chairman of INYM, Luis Prieto, this study provides the scientific endorsement infusion needed to “support your kindness”, but believes that it is the people that looks really benefited from the discovery, because, he said, from Now you can eat for pleasure not only kill but also to benefit their health.

The study was conducted in the province of Misiones, in northeastern Peru, the largest producing area of Argentina yerba mate, which is leading exporter of this product, with Syria as its main market

The coordinator of the National AIDS Programme, Ministry of Public Health and Welfare, Mariel Castro, said in a meeting with reporters organized by indigenous organizations, that 27 percent of all patients with the deadly disease belongs to the Mayan people.

While 0.8 percent belongs to the Garifuna people settled in the Caribbean Guatemala and 0.3 percent Xinca in the east, said the official.

According to the source, about 58,000 people in Guatemala are infected with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), of which 16 895 have developed AIDS.

A total of 10 731 patients were men and 6164 women, but only 8560 receive antiretroviral treatment.

The official complained about the lack of information to know the actual statistics of those infected with the deadly disease, because, as he said, “talking about sex with indigenous peoples is hard to be a taboo subject.”

The lack of knowledge of the cultures of these peoples and illiteracy are also constraints and the smaller the group the harder it is to address the issue of AIDS, he added.

An indigenous woman said they only know so far that there condoms to prevent disease, and regretted that the state does not have an information campaign on AIDS.

However, Castro said that for a year there is an awareness campaign in different Mayan languages, in order to raise awareness and prevent AIDS, but acknowledged that there are weaknesses to be performed within the rural area.

The official described as “worrying” that has been underestimated by 58 percent of official cases, and announced that it will develop a studio next year to update the figures.

He explained that this gap is because the first AIDS case was discovered in Guatemala in 1984, but the program was created in 2000 as “implies” a “delay” of 16 years in defining policies to counteract the evil.

For its part, the director of Naleb Agency, the Indian Álvaro Pop, commented that “the most alarming is the lack of preventive policies and information.

Pop said that many Guatemalans deported from U.S. arrive are infected with HIV but are unaware of and spread to his family.

The Centre for Legal Action, Juana Batzibal, sued health authorities to launch an awareness campaign on the issue, but considering that this country is multicultural and multilingual.

That is, at least, the effect was achieved on the metabolism of 16 male volunteers who lived a sedentary lifestyle, according to a study conducted by Professor James Timmons and researchers from Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh which is published in “BMC Endocrine Disorders.”

According to the study, a table of three-minute workout performed with intensity and regularity has a significant effect on the ability to process sugar metabolism.

“We found a few exercises that make muscle of 30 seconds each with intensity dramatically improves the metabolism in just two weeks,” says Timmons.

With this, the British researchers claim not detract from the benefits of the practice of sport for several hours each week, but to find “an alternative” for those who can not.

It is well known that the risk of developing cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes substantially reduced with regular practice of physical exercise.

However, according to Timmons, the guidelines are currently designing exercise programs to improve health may “not be optimal and require further reflection.

“The training of low volume and high intensity used in our study substantially improved the action of insulin and glucose disposal in young men who lived a sedentary life, indicating that does not fully value the traditional relationship between exercise and diabetes, “he said.

During the experiment, volunteers used exercise bikes to make a sprint to the greatest possible intensity, but any strenuous activity carried out several times a week will cause the same metabolic protective effect, according to the study.

“This new perspective can help people lead healthier lives, improve the health of the population and save the health system millions of pounds, simply by making it easier to find time for sport,” said Timmons
