Stomach Disorder

The stomach is an important organ in the body. It plays a vital role in digestion of foods, releases various enzymes and also protects the lower intestine from harmful organisms. The stomach connects to the esophagus above and to the small intestine below. It is intricately related to the pancreas, spleen and liver. The stomach does vary in size but its J shape is constant. The stomach lies in the upper part of the abdomen just below the left rib cage.

Examples including the name gastropathy include portal hypertensive gastropathy and Ménétrier’s disease, also known as “hyperplastic hypersecretory gastropathy”. However, there are many other stomach diseases that don’t include the word “gastropathy” such as gastric or peptic ulcer disease, gastro paresis, and dyspepsia.

Many stomach diseases are associated with infection.

 Historically, it was widely believed that the highly acidic environment of the stomach would keep the stomach immune from infection. However, a large number of studies have indicated that most cases of stomach ulcers, gastritis, and stomach cancer are caused by Helicobacter pylori infection. One of the ways it is able to survive in the stomach involves its unease enzymes which metabolize urea (which is normally secreted into the stomach) to ammonia and carbon dioxide which neutralizes gastric acid and thus prevents its digestion. In recent years, it has been discovered that other Helicobacter bacteria are also capable of colonising the stomach and have been associated with gastritis.

Having too little or no gastric acid is known as hypochlorhydria or achlorhydria respectively and are conditions which can have negative health impacts. Having high levels of gastric acid is called hyperchlorhydria. Many people believe that hyperchlorhydria can cause stomach ulcers. However, recent research indicates that the gastric mucosa which secretes gastric acid is acid-resistant.

Gastritis and stomach cancer can be caused by Helicobacter pylori infection.

There are many types of chronic disorders which affect the stomach. However, since the symptoms are localized to this organ,

The typical symptoms of stomach problems include:

 nausea, vomiting, bloating, cramps, diarrhea and pain.

Your stomach is an organ between your esophagus and small intestine. It is where digestion of protein begins. The stomach has three tasks. It stores swallowed food. It mixes the food with stomach acids. Then it sends the mixture on to the small intestine.

Most people have a problem with their stomach at one time or another. Indigestion and heartburn are common problems. You can relieve some stomach problems with over-the-counter medicines and lifestyle changes, such as avoiding fatty foods or eating more slowly. Other problems like peptic ulcers or GERD require medical attention.

You should see a doctor if you have any of the following:

• Blood when you have a bowel movement
• Severe abdominal pain
• Heartburn not relieved by antacids
• Unintended weight loss
• Ongoing vomiting or diarrhea

Disorders of the stomach are very common and induce a significant amount of morbidity and suffering in the population. Data from hospitals indicate that more than 25% of the population suffers from some type of chronic stomach disorder including abdominal pain and indigestion. These symptoms occur for long periods and cause prolonged suffering, time off work and a poor quality of life. Moreover, visits to doctors, expense of investigations and treatment result in many days lost from work and a colossal cost to the financial system.

In the stomach there is a slight balance between acid and the wall lining which is protected by mucus. When this mucus lining is disrupted for whatever reason, signs and symptoms of acidity result. This may result in upper abdominal pain, indigestion, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting and heartburn. When the condition is allowed to progress, the pain may become continuous; blood may start to leak and be seen in the stools. If the bleeding is rapid and of adequate volume it may even result in vomiting of bright red blood (hematemesis). When the acidity is uncontrolled, it can even cause severe blood loss (anemia) or lead to perforation (hole) in the stomach which is a surgical emergency. In many individuals, the progressive bleeding from an ulcer mixes with the feces and presents as black stools. Presence of blood in stools is often the first sign that there is a problem in the stomach.

Another very common long term problem which is now more appreciated is gastroparesis. Gastroparesis affects millions of individuals and is often never suspected and most patients have a delay in diagnosis. Basically in gastroparesis, the stomach motility disappears and food remains stagnant in the stomach. The most common cause of gastroparesis is diabetes but it can also occur from a blockage at the distal end of stomach, a cancer or a stroke. Symptoms of gastroparesis includes abdominal pain, fullness, bloating, nausea, vomiting after eating food, loss of appetite and feeling of fullness after eating small amounts of food.

During digestion, food is stored in the liquid present in the stomach. The food that is not digested travels to the large intestine and colon in liquid form. These organs begin to absorb the water turning the food into a more solid form. Different viruses or bacteria can increase the amount of liquid that is secreted and moves too quickly through the digestive tract for the water to be absorbed. Diarrhea comes in two types: acute diarrhea and chronic diarrhea. The acute diagnosis can last for a few days up to a week of time. Chronic diarrhea lasts for several days or longer periods of time lasting a few weeks. The difference in diagnosis will help determine the cause of the illness.

Crohn’s disease is an inflammatory bowel disease that can affect any part of the digestive tract, even the stomach, although it’s a rare presentation. Its main feature is inflammatory ulcers that can affect the total thickness of the stomach wall and can bleed but rarely perforate. Symptoms include abdominal pain, loss of appetite, and weight loss. Diarrhea is also a symptom that can develop, so checking stools for the appearance of blood is important. It is possible for symptoms of Crohn’s disease to remain with a person for weeks or go away on their own. Reporting the symptoms to a doctor is recommended to prevent further complications.

Cancers of the stomach are rare and the incidence has been declining worldwide. Stomach cancers usually occur due to fluctuations in acidity level and may present with vague symptoms of abdominal fullness, weight loss and pain. The actual cause of stomach cancer is not known but has been linked to infection with Helicobacter pylori, pernicious anemia, Menetriere’s disease, and nitrogenous preservatives in food.

Smoking has been linked to a variety of disorders of the stomach. Tobacco is known to stimulate acid production and impairs production of the protective mucus. This leads to development of ulcers in the majority of smokers. Chronic stomach problems have also been linked to excess intake of alcohol. It has been shown that alcohol intake can cause stomach ulcer, gastritis and even stomach cancer. Thus, avoidance of smoking and excess alcohol consumption can help prevent the majority of chronic stomach disorders.

One of the most causes of chronic stomach problems is use of medications. Use of aspirin and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs to treat various pain disorders can damage lining of the stomach and cause ulcers. Other medications like narcotics can interfere with stomach emptying and cause bloating, nausea, or vomiting.

The majority of chronic stomach problems are treated medically. However, there is evidence that a change in life style may help. Even though there is no specific food responsible for causing chronic stomach problems, experts recommend eating a healthy diet which consists of fruits and vegetables. Lean meat should be limited. Moreover, people should keep a diary of foods that cause problems and avoid them.

There are many tools for investigating stomach problems.

 The most common is endoscopy. This procedure is performed as an outpatient and utilizes a small flexible camera. The procedure does require intravenous sedation and takes about 30–45 minutes; the endoscope is inserted via the mouth and can visualize the entire swallowing tube, stomach and duodenum. The procedure also allows the physician to obtain biopsy samples. In many cases of bleeding, the surgeon can use the endoscope to treat the source of bleeding with laser, clips or other injectable drugs.

Other radiological studies frequently used to assess patients with chronic stomach problems include a barium swallow, where a dye is consumed and pictures of the esophagus and stomach are obtained every few minutes. Other tests include a 24-hour pH study, CT scans or MRI etc.

Tib-e- Nabvi

\

In Islam, Prophetic medicine is the advice given by the prophet Muhammad with regards to sickness, treatment and hygiene as found in the hadith, and the writings undertaken primarily by non-physician scholars to collect and explicate these traditions.^[1] It is distinct from Islamic medicine, which is a broader category encompassing a variety of medical practices rooted in Greek natural philosophy.

Allah almighty has created Prophet MuhammadSAW blessing for all mankind .TIB E NABVI is filled with a lot of diseases with its cure human problems and troubles guideline. ImmamQayum’s real name is Al Imam Sham Suldin Muhammad BinAbi baker Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyya which is translated by Hakim Aziz Ul Rahmanuzma.In this translated book he has describe different disease with its cure,instructions,precotions,wounds healing and many other treatments belong to human beings .He has also describe health precautions and psychological disease etc. He advised patients for cure find a good physician; told physician confidently what they feel?After that use the medicine which a physician recommendedalso pray for health and recovery to allah almighty because He is the one who can do anything as said in quran;innallah ala qulishainqadir.hazrat Muhammad saw told some best treatments like,

Honey is a natural cure for pesky colds. At times the cough just doesn’t go away even after long courses of antivirals and antibiotics. All you need to do is eat 2 tablespoons of honey 30 minutes before bed. It coats and soothes down your throat. It is also used to treat respiratory tract infections. Honey is known as an antibiotic. It can be applied directly on the wounds and burns for disinfecting them. The anti-microbial property of honey makes it easier for the wounds to heal. The proteins present in honey aid in collagen formation and quick healing as well. Struggling with remembering all those important notes for the upcoming quiz? This natural sweetener is rich with antioxidants, which prevent cellular damage within the brain. Honey is known to improve short-term memory loss in women if taken regularly.

Anjeer helps cure minor zits and pimples. Apply mashed figs all over your face and let it dry for15-20 minutes. This remedy is useful to cure acne. This helps blister get dried and leaves no scar behind. Fig is also used for beauty purpose when blended with milk. It helps remove blemishes and spots.  Applying fig paste over the face helps tighten the pores and control excess sebum secretion, while keeping skin pores unclogged. Anjeer is a natural laxative that helps prevent constipation and other digestive problems such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). Soak 2-3 dried fig in water and leave themovernight. Consume them in the morning and do this daily for a month, every morning, to relieve constipation. The fiber content in Anjeer helps lose weight in the obese people. But don’t overdo it. Consuming more than recommended may cause you to gain weight. One slice of dried fig gives you 47 calories, and you obtain 2 grams of total fat per dried fig. So, whoever wants to lose weight, shed pounds with Fig.

 Dates are best for Anemia patients suffer from a lack of iron within their systems, which affects the quality of blood and in turn causes a drop in energy levels. The high proportion of iron in dates helps to rectify the lack of iron in the body and subsequently enhances energy levels and reduces feelings of lethargy. The sweetness of dates can be directly attributed to the variety of natural sugars that the fruit inherently contains. If you feel tired or sleepy during the day, dates serve as the perfect cure to replenish your energy levels. Dates contain potassium and diarrhea, two compounds that can help to regulate bowel movements and prevent diarrhea. If you are already suffering from chronic diarrhea, dates can help to alleviate the severity of the illness.

TiB-e-Nabvi.and.Henna
In Tirmidhi and Ibn-e-Majah, Salma UmmeRafay (Prophet’s maid) narrates, “Whenever Prophet Muhammad was blighted by a spike or wound, he would apply henna paste on it.”Similarly, in Sunan Abu Dawood, Salma (wife of Abu Rafay) narrates, “Whenever someone complained to the Prophet about pain in the limbs, He recommended them to use Henna”.

Putting castor oil on our facial moles is very effective in removing several skin problems such as; moles, warts and also skin tags. This treatment does not leave any marks however, the cost of this treatment is the time it takes. It might be months before the mole completely vanishes or drops off.

• Mix castor oil with baking soda and make a paste
• Apply that paste on the mole
• Leave it on for a few hours and remove it
• Just don’t do it more than twice a day.

These are some remedies that are told by hazart Muhammad saw there are many more treatments like these which is beneficial for humans. Now although science has too much progress yet they are accepted TIB E NABVI.

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَالنَّجْمِ إِذَا هَوَى مَا ضَلَّ صَاحِبُكُمْ وَمَا غَوَى وَمَا يَنطِقُ عَنِ الْهَوَى إِنْ هُوَ إِلاَّ وَحْيٌ يُوحَى عَلَّمَهُ شَدِيدُ الْقُوَى

By the Star when it goes down, your Companion is neither astray nor being misled, and neither does he speak out of his own desire, that which he conveys to you is but a divine revelation with which he is being Inspired, something that a very Mighty One Has Imparted to him. (Surah Najm ~ Verses 1 to 5)

Prophetic medicine is only suitable for good and pure bodies, just as Quran is only suitable for righteous souls and feeling hearts. Therefore, when the people ignore Prophetic medicine, it is like ignoring the help with the guidance of Quran, which is the most effective medicine. Again, when the medicine (Quran and the Prophetic medicine) do not work, it is due to the negativity in the body and soul that are not suitable for accepting the medicine, not because the medicine does not work. All success comes from ALLAH.

The relationship of (scientific) medicine to the Prophetic medicine is similar to scientific thought in comparison to divine revelations (to the Prophets). Indeed there are scientific phenomena and medical therapies to which even the best scientist and doctors have no real answers. Even to this day despite the advances made by science and technology, many mysteries remain. The results and comfort of spiritual therapies comes only from faith and trust in ALLAH. They come through charity, prayer, repentance and seeking ALLAH’s forgiveness. They are aided by doing good deeds, helping the helpless and relieving the afflicted. The causes for these cures are varied and defy logical analysis. And the resultant cures cannot be explained by scientific experimentation and analysis. All this is in accordance of the law of ALLAH and nothing outside it.

When a person’s heart becomes attuned to the Lord of the world, and trusting of the Creator of all ailments and their remedies, medicines which would otherwise be ineffective in an individual who is unbelieving and indifferent of heart become effective,. It has been experienced that when a man’s belief is strong, his body and soul are strengthened and they co-operate in repelling disease and overcoming it. This cannot be denied except by the most ignorant of people.

Pray is the main and vital instruction given by ibneqayum whom most of the people forget because some people only be medicated some only pray. Cure with both(pray, medicine) is Sunnah RasoolSAW.RasoolAllah SAW whenever treats his own disease and someone else health problems Hazrat Muhammad saw recommends them some medical tips from which people definitely get benefits.

Every disease has cure.

Drinking water

 Water is one of the most important substances on earth. All plants and animals. must have water to survive. If there was no water there would be no life on earth.

It is most important that the water which people drink and use for other purposes is clean water. This means that the water must be free of germs and chemicals and be clear .Water that is safe for drinking is called potable water.Disease-causing germs and chemicals can find their way into water supplies. When this happens the water becomes polluted or contaminated and when people drink it or come in contact with it in other ways they can become very sick.

Water that is not safe to drink is said to be non-potable. Throughout history there have been many occasions when hundreds of thousands of people have died because disease-causing germs have been spread through a community by a polluted water supply.

Drinking water is one of the most overlooked ways of staying healthy. We take a look at the importance of water in maintaining good health, including some health benefits of water you may not know about.

Water is your body’s essential daily ingredient and is found in every cell in the human body. It’s involved in all bodily functions from respiration and digestion, to temperature regulation and waste removal. Water is also the medium through which chemical reactions can take place, and allows transit, absorption, and transformation of oxygen, hormones, and nutrients.But we are constantly losing it. Our bodies have no means of storing large amounts of water and constant chemical processes demand that we keep replenishing our stores regularly. When the rate of water loss exceeds that of intake, dehydration occurs. The performance of nearly all our bodily systems suffer as a result.

What Is Dehydration in Adults?

Dehydration Facts

Dehydration is a condition that occurs when an individual has lost so much fluid that the body can no longer function normally and develops signs and symptoms due to the loss of fluid.

Adults should seek medical care for suspected dehydration if experiencing decreased production of urine, fever over 101F, seizures, difficulty breathing, or chest or abdominal pain.

Medical treatment of dehydration in adults may involve drinking fluids that contain electrolytes and carbohydrates, in addition to water. In cases of severe dehydration, it may be necessary to administer IV fluids.

Dehydration is a condition that can occur when the loss of body fluids, mostly water, exceeds the amount that is taken in. With dehydration, more water is moving out of individual cells and then out of the body than the amount of water that is taken in through drinking. Medically, dehydration usually means a person has lost enough fluid so that the body begins to lose its ability to function normally and then begins to produce symptoms related to the fluid loss. Although infants and children are at highest risk for dehydration, many adults and especially the elderly have significant risk factors.

People (and animals) lose water every day in the form of water vapor in the breath we exhale, and as water in our sweat, urine, and stool. Along with the water, small amounts of salts or electrolytes are also lost. Our bodies are constantly readjusting the balance between water (and salts or electrolytes) losses with fluid intake. When we lose too much water, our bodies may become out of balance or dehydrated. Most doctors divide dehydration into three stages: 1) mild, 2) moderate and 3) severe. Mild and often even moderate dehydration can be reversed or put back in balance by oral intake of fluids that contain electrolytes (or salts) that are lost during activity. If unrecognized and untreated, some instances of moderate and severe dehydration can lead to death. This article is designed to discuss dehydration in adults.

Dehydration symptoms include:

Fatigue or exhaustion

Thirst and hunger

Dark urine

Mood changes

Weakness and slow responses

Confusion or headaches

To prevent dehydration, experts have suggested that we drink between 2 and 3 litres of water per day, although there really is no prescriptive volume that suits everyone. It is especially important for older people to stay hydrated, as the feeling of thirst dampens with age and kidney function declines. However, if you have a heart condition check with your GP first. The easiest way to measure your level of hydration is through the colour of your urine – it should be almost colourless and odourless.

Moreover there is some apps that will remind you to drink water like:

• My water balance
• Drink water reminder
• Drink water log
• Water time
• Aqualert

Ways to Drink More Water Every Day

• Add flavor to your pitcher.

2. Drink a glass after every bathroom break.

3. Sip before every meal.

4. Use an app to track your cups.

5. Or take it a step further and get a high-tech water bottle.

6. Dilute sugary drinks with water and ice.

7. Keep a gallon jug nearby.

8. Eat water-rich foods.

9. Use a marked water bottle.

10. Anytime you drain your glass or bottle, fill it back up.

11. Keep water bottles filled up around the house and in your car and all your bags.

12. Drink a glass of water every time you’re waiting for coffee to brew.

The media is an important ally in any public health situation. It serves the role of being a source of correct information as well as an advocate for correct health behaviors. But before the media can take on that role, it needs to understand the virus, the issues surrounding it, policy and practices, and finally, recommended correct behaviors.”

The local and international media play a vital role as the link between health workers and the larger public. Health authorities educate and entrust the media with essential health information, which is then relayed to the public in readily accessible formats through a variety of media channels.  For instance, in order to disseminate information about the avian influenza to the wider public, the Government tasked the Academy for Educational Development with the responsibility of developing a training program to help the local media understand the complexity of this disease so that they would be able to report about it effectively

Being an important social organization mass media has wide reach and access that can influence the public by improving their health education level. … In other words, media is instrumental in bringing behavioural changes in knowledge, beliefs, and attitudes about alth and healthy behaviours.

Try to drink water regularly throughout the day, rather than loading on huge amounts in one go – although extremely rare, drinking huge amounts of water in a short period of time can actually cause water intoxication

Thalassemia

Thalassemia (thal-uh-SEE-me-uh) is an inherited blood disorder characterized by less hemoglobin and fewer red blood cells in your body than normal. Hemoglobin is the substance in your red blood cells that allows them to carry oxygen. The low hemoglobin and fewer red blood cells of thalassemia may cause anemia, leaving you fatigued.

If you have mild thalassemia, you may not need treatment. But if you have a more severe form of the disorder, you may need regular blood transfusions. You can also take steps on your own to cope with fatigue, such as choosing a healthy diet and exercising regularly.

Symptoms:

Thalassemia signs and symptoms may include:

Fatigue

Weakness

Pale or yellowish skin

Facial bone deformities

Slow growth

Abdominal swelling

Dark urine

Several types of thalassemia exist, including alpha-thalassemia, thalassemia intermedia and Cooley anemia. The signs and symptoms you experience depend on the type and severity of your condition. Some babies show signs and symptoms of thalassemia at birth, while others may develop them during the first two years of life. Some people who have only one affected hemoglobin gene don’t experience any thalassemia symptoms.

Causes

Thalassemia is caused by mutations in the DNA of cells that make hemoglobin — the substance in your red blood cells that carries oxygen throughout your body. The mutations associated with thalassemia are passed from parents to children.

Thalassemia disrupts the normal production of hemoglobin and healthy red blood cells. This causes anemia. With anemia, your blood doesn’t have enough red blood cells to carry oxygen to your tissues — leaving you fatigued.

Types of thalassemia

The type of thalassemia you have depends on the number of gene mutations you inherit from your parents and which part of the hemoglobin molecule is affected by the mutations. The more mutated genes, the more severe your thalassemia. Hemoglobin molecules are made of alpha and beta parts that can be affected by mutations.

Alpha-thalassemia                                                                                                         

Four genes are involved in making the alpha hemoglobin chain. You get two from each of your parents. If you inherit:

1 mutated gene, you’ll have no signs or symptoms of thalassemia. But you are a carrier of the disease and can pass it on to your children.

2 mutated genes, your thalassemia signs and symptoms will be mild. This condition may be called alpha-thalassemia trait.

3 mutated genes, your signs and symptoms will be moderate to severe.

4 mutated genes. This type is rare. Affected fetuses have severe anemia and usually are stillborn. Babies born with this condition often die shortly after birth or require lifelong transfusion therapy. In rare cases, a child born with this condition may be treated with transfusions and a stem cell transplant, which is also called a bone marrow transplant.

Thalassemia minor                                                                                                                              

Two genes are involved in making the beta hemoglobin chain. You get one from each of your parents. If you inherit:

1 mutated gene, you’ll have mild signs and symptoms. This condition is called thalassemia minor or beta-thalassemia.

2 mutated genes, your signs and symptoms will be moderate to severe. This condition is called thalassemia major, or Cooley anemia. Babies born with two defective beta hemoglobin genes usually are healthy at birth but develop signs and symptoms within the first two years of life. A milder form, called thalassemia intermedia, also may occur with two mutated genes.

Risk factors

Factors that increase your risk of thalassemia include:

Family history of thalassemia. Thalassemia is passed from parents to children through mutated hemoglobin genes. If you have a family history of thalassemia, you may have an increased risk of the condition.

Certain ancestry. Thalassemia occurs most often in African-Americans and in people of Mediterranean and Southeast Asian ancestry.

Complications

Possible complications of thalassemia include:

Iron overload. People with thalassemia can get too much iron in their bodies, either from the disease or from frequent blood transfusions. Too much iron can result in damage to your heart, liver and endocrine system. This system includes hormone-producing glands that regulate processes throughout your body.

Infection. People with thalassemia have an increased risk of infection. This is especially true if you’ve had your spleen removed.

In cases of severe thalassemia, the following complications can occur:

Bone deformities. Thalassemia can make your bone marrow expand, which causes your bones to widen. This can result in abnormal bone structure, especially in your face and skull. Bone marrow expansion also makes bones thin and brittle, increasing the chance of broken bones.

Enlarged spleen (splenomegaly). The spleen helps your body fight infection and filter unwanted material, such as old or damaged blood cells. Thalassemia is often accompanied by the destruction of a large number of red blood cells. This causes your spleen to enlarge and work harder than normal. Splenomegaly can make anemia worse, and it can reduce the life of transfused red blood cells. If your spleen grows too big, your doctor may suggest surgery to remove it (splenectomy).

Slowed growth rates. Anemia can cause a child’s growth to slow. And thalassemia may cause a delay in puberty.

Heart problems. Heart problems — such as congestive heart failure and abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias) — may be associated with severe thalassemia.

Prevention

In most cases, you can’t prevent thalassemia. If you have thalassemia, or if you carry a thalassemia gene, consider talking with a genetic counselor for guidance if you’re thinking of having children.

Health and fitness

Physical fitness is a state of health and well being and more specifically, the ability to perform aspects of sports occupation and daily activities. Physical fitness is generally achieved through proper nutrition, moderate physical exercise and sufficient rest before the industrial revolution the physical fitness is considering the capacity to Carry out the day’s activities without undue fatigue. However with the changes in lifestyles physical fitness is now considered a measure of the body ability to function efficiently and effectively in work and leisure activities, to be healthy, to resist hypo kinetic disease ( the disease which can be held by insufficient movement and exercise in a day in result much of chronic diseases such as coronary heart disease, diabetes, heart disease, obesity, and lower back pain est. should occur.

If you are a physically active you should reduce the risk of heart attack. You should manage your weight better. You should have a lower blood cholesterol level, lower the risk of diabetes and some cancer, lower the risk of blood pressure, have stronger bones, muscle and joint lower risk of developing osteoporosis. Recover better from periods of hospitalization or bed rest. Feel better with more energy, a better mood feel more relaxed and sleep better. It can block your negative thought or distract from daily worries. It provides an opportunity to increase in social contact and boosted your confidence. It also change levels of chemical in your brain such as serotonin, endorphins and stress hormones.

If you are doing regular exercise you should be resist more chronic diseases. Such as regular exercise can help improve your heart health recent studies have shown that interval framing in often tolerated well in people with heart disease, and it can produce significant benefit for people with high blood pressure , exercise can lower your risk of dying of heart disease and lower the risk of heart disease progressing . Regular exercise can help insulin more affect able lower your blood sugar level. Physical activities can also help you control your weight and boosts your energy. If you are diabetes mellitus exercises can lower your risk of dying of heart disease. Exercises can also control the frequency and severity of asthma attacks. Regular low impacts aerobic activities can strength and endurance in your black and improve muscle function. Abdominal amen back muscle exercises (core-strengthening exercises) may help reduce symptoms by strengthening the muscles around your spines. Exercise can reduce pain, help to maintain muscle strength in affected joints and reduce joints stiffness. It can also improve physical function and quality of life for people who have arthritis. Exercise improves the quality of life for people who have cancer and it can also improve their fitness. Exercise can also lower the risk of dying from breast, colorectal and prostate cancer. Exercise can improve cognition in people with dementia and people who are active on a regular basis are all less risk of dementia and cognitive impairment.

In current situation about physical activities in Pakistan has been seen in researches that 72% of people were found physical inactive. According to world health organization (WHO)1.5 billion adults are overweight of these over 200 million men and 300 million women are obese worldwide obesity in particularly high among south Asian population according to national health survey of Pakistan (1990-1994) prevalence of overweight and obesity were estimated to be 25% and over 10% respectively and this tend continuously rising and overweight and obesity are the fifth leading risk for death globally about 3.0 million adult death each year are attributed to these. It has been seen that due to more trending urbanization in last 10 year cause to over populated in urban area due to this due to this majority people live in very small home the crossing of air in home would be reduced and people like rest as compared to physical activity which moor cause of obesity. Moreover, there was a significant interaction between family structure and gender; females living in extended families were about twice more likely to be in active whereas male from extended families were six times more likely to be inactive relative to families from nuclear families lack of information, motivation and skills spouse and family support accessibility to places for physical activity, cost effective facilities and time were found to be important barrier to physical activity.

Doing any physical activity is better than doing none if you currently do no physical activity, start by doing some and gradually build up to the recommended amount be active preferably all days in every week. Accumulate 150to 300 minutes of moderate intensity physical activity or 75 to 150 minutes of vigorous intensity physical activity or an equivalent combination of both moderate and vigorous activities each week. Do muscle strengthening activities on at least two days each week. You can also plan physical activity by doing things such as going to gym or playing sports. There are a lot of everyday activities that provide an opportunity to be active and provide health benefit for example make habits of walking or cycling instead of using car or other vehicles or do thing yourself instead of using labor- saving machines and give that time to your physical activity. Think about your day how would you spend it, make plans about your day and think positively for example if you’re thinking “I am too busy to workout” rephrase the thought more positive empowering terms such as “I chose to make myself a priority” or,”I do have to be healthy “, or,” I am willing to do some thing active today”. Overtime those positive thought patterns will elbow out the negative ones.

If u are actively TV watches you should see health TV Chanel a lot of segment which would be held regarding to health and fitness as well as tauseeq haider morning show has also a segment about health and fitness and this morning show is very positive morning about our norms and value and our tradition as well. The people who prefer for reading who must read Media search magazine that is quarterly health and fitness magazine founded by Mar khan. It focuses on medical research, including activities articles and tips on how to carry a well balanced lifestyle. The people who is mostly active on social Media and phone can use the app “weight lost in 30 days” it is very beneficial app for weight lost people also used the YouTube Chanel ” walk at home ” the Chanel for those people who has no spare time to exercise and walk outside the home and consists of easy walk without any more risk of injuries. Evan. Sandy, United States. Health and fitness journalism writer, to help people from his journal how to fit their body.          

Physical activity carries risks as well as benefits. The most common adverse effects of physical activity are burnout and musculoskeletal injury. Depending on the type of activity, injury risk can be augmented with increased intensity, frequency and duration of activity. To minimize the risk of activity-induced injuries, you should be aware of the signs of over-exertion (such as breathlessness and muscle soreness), and take reasonable precautions.

Here are some exercise precautions and safety tips:

Wear comfortable clothing and well-padded shoes that can protect the heels and arches of the feet;

Put on appropriate gear for the activity, such as helmets and protective pads for cycling;

Always warm up before doing exercise and cool down afterwards to lower the risk of strains and sprains;

Take appropriate breaks during the activity;

Do not exercise with an empty stomach. Eat something light (such as toast with jam or skimmed milk) to give you some stamina. Do not exercise immediately after a full meal because this will affect digestion;

Replenish extra fluids before, during and after physical activity, especially for prolonged exercise like hiking;

Beware of the weather and environmental conditions. Avoid doing outdoor vigorous exercises in hot or humid weather;

Listen to the body. Do not exercise when unwell. If there is dizziness, shortness of breath, chest pain, nausea or vomiting, or muscle and joint pain during exercise, stop the activity and seek medical advice as soon as possible.

In last it should be say that health and fitness perceived by self determination and planning that,” I will do this”. By seeing the example in our societies that most of people have  not focus on their physical activity causes severe diseases and most of people who pursue the physical activity have their organ oxygenated and they are fit in all aspect of their life, so be active and stay healthy.

Skin Infection

Skin is a complex organ; an average square inch of skin contains 650 sweat glands, 20 blood vessels, and more than 1,000 nerve endings. Despite being just a few millimeters thick, skin makes up around one-seventh of our body weight.

Skin layers:

The skin has three basic levels — the epidermis, the dermis, and the hypodermis: Epidermis-Main roles: makes new skin cells, gives skin its color, and protects the body.

Dermis-Main roles: makes sweat and oil, provides sensations and blood to the skin, and grows hair.

A skin infection occurs when parasites, fungi, or germs such as bacteria penetrate the skin and spread. When this happens, it can cause pain, swelling, other types of discomfort, and skin color changes. A skin infection may be mild or serious. Skin infections are different from rashes. A rash is an area of swollen or irritated skin. While rashes can be symptoms of some skin infections, a person with a rash does not necessarily have an infection.

There are four types of skin infection:

▪bacterial

▪viral

▪fungal

▪parasitic

Cellulitis:This common bacterial skin infection occurs when bacteria infect the deep layers of skin and nearby tissues. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, doctors diagnose 14.5 million cases of cellulites in the United States each year: Before causing complications, cellulites appear as swollen skin that is a different color from a person’s usual skin tone. The area is sometimes warm and tender to the touch.

Treatment: The most typical treatment is oral antibiotics. Some people require this medication intravenously. A person should also rest, elevate the affected area, and cover it to aid healing.

Herpes: The herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is responsible for causing a herpes gladiator infection on the skin.

According to the New York State Department of Health, 30–90 percent of all people are exposed to HSV-1 by adulthood, but many never developed symptoms. After infection, a person will always have the virus in them, similar to herpes that occurs on the genitals and around the mouth. No symptoms may occur for several months or years between flares.

Symptoms-When herpes gladiator flares, it can cause:

▪Swollen glands

▪fever

▪a tingling sensation in the affected area

Treatment-some cases of herpes require no treatment. However, a person with an active infection should avoid activities, such as sports and sex, that put them in direct contact with others.For people with moderate to severe infections, a doctor may prescribe an antiviral medication

Scabies:

 Scabies is another parasitic skin infection.

When a person has scabies, tiny mites burrow into the upper layer of skin to lay their eggs. An infestation affects the outer layers of the skin.

Symptoms-When infected with scabies, the most common symptoms are:

When infected with scabies, the most common symptoms are:

▪intense itchiness

▪a pimple-like rash

The rash can appear nearly anywhere on the body. Some of the most common sites include the:

▪Elbows▪wrist▪armpits.

Treatment-Scabies treatment involves medications called scabicides. These kill adult mites, and some also kill the eggs. Tested and approved scabicides are only available by prescription. Also, it is important to keep the living environment clean and to wash and bag clothing and bedding for 2–3 weeks. What it looks like?

Scabies causes a pink, pimple-like rash that may contain small blisters and areas of scaling. Additionally, a person with scabies may notice burrows in the skin.

The infection is most likely to appear on the hands or feet.

Aging skin:

As we get older, our skin changes; it becomes thinner and more easily damaged. Also, the process of healing slows. Overall, we have less skin, and it is less elastic. There are a number of reasons why the skin goes through these changes. One important factor is exposure to UV rays, which also increases the risk of skin cancer. When to see a doctor “It is especially important to contact a doctor if the rash occurs alongside a fever or symptoms other than itchiness or pain.

Many skin infections require medication or other forms of treatment.

Prevention-Since many skin infections are easy to contract, people should use caution in public area.

For example, wearing shoes in public bathrooms and showers can help prevent athlete’s foot. Avoiding physical contact with people who have scabies or an active herpes infection can prevent exposure. It is also important to care for wounds carefully.

Takeaway-Skin infections are a very common occurrence throughout the world. Anyone is at risk, and these infections can spread easily. It is important to take precautions .If an unexplained rash appears, seek medical attention as soon as possible.

Osteoporosis

Osteoporosis is a condition that weakens bones, making them fragile and more likely to break. It develops slowly over several years and is often only diagnosed when a minor fall or sudden impact causes a bone fracture.

The most common injuries in people with osteoporosis are:

1: Wrist fractures

2: Hip fractures

3: Fractures of the spinal bones (vertebrae)

However, they can also occur in other bones, such as in the arm or pelvis. Sometimes a cough or sneeze can cause a rib fracture or the partial collapse of one of the bones of the spine.

Osteoporosis isn’t usually painful until a fracture occurs, but spinal fractures are a common cause of long-term pain. Bone is living tissue that is constantly being broken down and replaced. Osteoporosis occurs when the creation of new bone doesn’t keep up with the removal of old bone.

Osteoporosis affects men and women of all races. But white and Asian women especially older women who are past menopause are at highest risk. Medications, healthy diet and weight-bearing exercise can help prevent bone loss or strengthen already weak bones.

Causes, symptoms and risks:

Losing bone is a normal part of the ageing process, but some people lose bone density much faster than normal. This can lead to osteoporosis and an increased risk of fractures.

Women also lose bone rapidly in the first few years after the menopause. Women are more at risk of osteoporosis than men, particularly if the menopause begins early (before the age of 45).

Symptoms:

Back pain, caused by a fractured or collapsed vertebra

Loss of height over time                                                            

A stooped posture

A bone fracture that occurs much more easily than expected

Many other factors can also increase the risk of developing osteoporosis, including:

Long-term use of high-dose oral corticosteroids

Long-term use of certain medications which can affect bone strength or hormone levels

Having a low body mass index (BMI) 

Heavy drinking and smoking

Your sex: Women are much more likely to develop osteoporosis than are men.

Age: The older you get, the greater your risk of osteoporosis.

Race: You’re at greatest risk of osteoporosis if you’re white or of Asian descent.

Family history: Having a parent or sibling with osteoporosis puts you at greater risk, especially if your mother or father experienced a hip fracture.

Body frame size: Men and women who have small body frames tend to have a higher risk because they may have less bone mass to draw from as they age.

Hormone levels

Osteoporosis is more common in people who have too much or too little of certain hormones in their bodies:

Sex hormones

Thyroid problems

Other glands

Dietary factors

Osteoporosis is more likely to occur in people who have:

Low calcium intake

Eating disorders

Gastrointestinal surgery

Steroids and other medications

Long-term use of oral or injected corticosteroid medications, such as prednisone and cortisone, interferes with the bone-rebuilding process. Osteoporosis has also been associated with medications used to combat or prevent:

Seizures

Gastric reflux

Cancer

Transplant rejection

Medical conditions

The risk of osteoporosis is higher in people who have certain medical problems, including:

• Celiac disease
• Inflammatory bowel disease
• Kidney or liver disease
• Cancer
• Lupus
• Multiple myeloma
• Rheumatoid arthritis

Prevention: Good nutrition and regular exercise are essential for keeping your bones healthy throughout your life.

Protein: Protein is one of the building blocks of bone. And while most people get plenty of protein in their diets, some do not. Vegetarians and vegans can get enough protein in the diet if they intentionally seek suitable sources, such as soy, nuts, legumes, and dairy and eggs if allowed. Older adults may also eat less protein for various reasons. Protein supplementation is an option.

Body weight: Being underweight increases the chance of bone loss and fractures. Excess weight is now known to increase the risk of fractures in your arm and wrist. As such, maintaining an appropriate body weight is good for bones just as it is for health in general.

Calcium: Men and women between the ages of 18 and 50 need 1,000 milligrams of calcium a day. This daily amount increases to 1,200 milligrams when women turn 50 and men turn 70. Good sources of calcium include:

Low-fat dairy products

Dark green leafy vegetables

Canned salmon or sardines with bones

Soy products, such as tofu

Calcium-fortified cereals and orange juice

If you find it difficult to get enough calcium from your diet, consider taking calcium supplements. However, too much calcium has been linked to kidney stones. Although yet unclear, some experts suggest that too much calcium especially in supplements can increase the risk of heart disease. The Institute of Medicine recommends that total calcium intake, from supplements and diet combined, should be no more than 2,000 milligrams daily for people older than 50.

Vitamin D: Vitamin D improves your body’s ability to absorb calcium and improves bone health in other ways. People can get adequate amounts of vitamin D from sunlight, but this may not be a good source if you live in high latitude, if you’re housebound, or if you regularly use sunscreen or avoid the sun entirely because of the risk of skin cancer.

Exercise: Exercise can help you build strong bones and slow bone loss. Exercise will benefit your bones no matter when you start, but you’ll gain the most benefits if you start exercising regularly when you’re young and continue to exercise throughout your life.

Combine strength training exercises with weight-bearing and balance exercises. Strength training helps strengthen muscles and bones in your arms and upper spine, and weight-bearing exercises — such as walking, jogging, running, stair climbing, skipping rope, skiing and impact-producing sports — affect mainly the bones in your legs, hips and lower spine. Balance exercises such as tai chi can reduce your risk of falling especially as you get older.

Swimming, cycling and exercising on machines such as elliptical trainers can provide a good cardiovascular workout, but they’re not as helpful for improving bone health.

Hepatitis

Your liver is the largest organ inside your body. It helps your body digest food, store energy, and remove poisons. Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver.

Viruses cause most cases of hepatitis. The type of hepatitis is named for the virus that causes it; for example, hepatitis A, hepatitis B or hepatitis C. Drug or alcohol use can also cause hepatitis. In other cases, your body mistakenly attacks healthy cells in the liver.

Some people who have hepatitis have no symptoms. Others may have

• Loss of appetite
• Nausea and vomiting
• Diarrhea
• Dark-colored urine and pale bowel movements
• Stomach pain
• Jaundice, yellowing of skin and eyes

Some forms of hepatitis are mild, and others can be serious. Some can lead to scarring, called cirrhosis, or to liver cancer.

Sometimes hepatitis goes away by itself. If it does not, it can be treated with drugs. Sometimes hepatitis lasts a lifetime. Vaccines can help prevent some viral form

Types of hepatitis

Hepatitis A is a highly contagious liver infection caused by the hepatitis A virus. The virus is one of several types of hepatitis viruses that cause inflammation and affect your liver’s ability to function.

You’re most likely to get hepatitis A from contaminated food or water or from close contact with a person or object that’s infected. Mild cases of hepatitis A don’t require treatment. Most people who are infected recover completely with no permanent liver damage.

Practicing good hygiene, including washing hands frequently, is one of the best ways to protect against hepatitis A. Vaccines are available for people most at risk.

Symptoms

Hepatitis A signs and symptoms typically don’t appear until you’ve had the virus for a few weeks. But not everyone with hepatitis A develops them. If you do, hepatitis signs and symptoms can include:

• Fatigue
• Sudden nausea and vomiting
• Abdominal pain or discomfort, especially on the upper right side beneath your lower ribs (by your liver)
• Clay-colored bowel movements
• Loss of appetite
• Low-grade fever
• Dark urine
• Joint pain
• Yellowing of the skin and the whites of your eyes (jaundice)
• Intense itching

These symptoms may be relatively mild and go away in a few weeks. Sometimes, however, hepatitis A infection results in a severe illness that lasts several months.

When to see a doctor

Make an appointment with your doctor if you have signs or symptoms of hepatitis A.

Getting a hepatitis A vaccine or an injection of immunoglobulin (an antibody) within two weeks of exposure to hepatitis A may protect you from infection. Ask your doctor or your local health department about receiving the hepatitis A vaccine if:

• You’ve traveled out of the country recently, particularly to Mexico or South or Central America, or to areas with poor sanitation
• A restaurant where you recently ate reports a hepatitis A outbreak
• Someone close to you, such as a roommate or caregiver, is diagnosed with hepatitis A
• You recently had sexual contact with someone who has hepatitis A

Causes

Hepatitis A is caused by a virus that infects liver cells and causes inflammation. The inflammation can affect how your liver works and cause other signs and symptoms of hepatitis A.

The virus most commonly spreads when you eat or drink something contaminated with fecal matter, even just tiny amounts. It does not spread through sneezing or coughing.

Here are some of the specific ways the hepatitis A virus can spread:

• Eating food handled by someone with the virus who doesn’t thoroughly wash his or her hands after using the toilet
• Drinking contaminated water
• Eating raw shellfish from water polluted with sewage
• Being in close contact with a person who’s infected — even if that person has no signs or symptoms
• Having sex with someone who has the virus

Risk factors

You’re at increased risk of hepatitis A if you:

• Travel or work in areas of the world where hepatitis A is common
• Attend child care or work in a child care center
• Live with another person who has hepatitis A
• Are a man who has sexual contact with other men
• Have any type of sexual contact with someone who has hepatitis A
• Are HIV positive
• Are experiencing homelessness
• Have a clotting-factor disorder, such as hemophilia
• Use any type of illegal drugs (not just those that are injected)

Complications

Unlike other types of viral hepatitis, hepatitis A does not cause long-term liver damage, and it doesn’t become chronic.

In rare cases, hepatitis A can cause a sudden loss of liver function, especially in older adults or people with chronic liver diseases. Acute liver failure requires a stay in the hospital for monitoring and treatment. Some people with acute liver failure may need a liver transplant.

Prevention

The hepatitis A vaccine can prevent infection with the virus. The vaccine is typically given in two shots. The first one is followed by a booster shot six months later.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends a hepatitis A vaccine for the following people:

• All children at age 1, or older children who didn’t receive the childhood vaccine
• Anyone age 1 year or older who is experiencing homelessness
• Infants ages 6 to 11 months traveling internationally
• Family and caregivers of adoptees from countries where hepatitis A is common
• People in direct contact with others who have hepatitis A
• Laboratory workers who may come in contact with hepatitis A
• Men who have sex with men
• People who work or travel in parts of the world where hepatitis A is common
• People who use any type of illicit drugs, not just injected ones
• People with clotting-factor disorders
• People with chronic liver disease, including hepatitis B or hepatitis C
• Anyone wishing to obtain protection (immunity)

Hepatitis C is a viral infection that causes liver inflammation, sometimes leading to serious liver damage. The hepatitis C virus (HCV) spreads through contaminated blood.

Until recently, hepatitis C treatment required weekly injections and oral medications that many HCV-infected people couldn’t take because of other health problems or unacceptable side effects.

That’s changing. Today, chronic HCV is usually curable with oral medications taken every day for two to six months. Still, about half of people with HCV don’t know they’re infected, mainly because they have no symptoms, which can take decades to appear. For that reason, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends a one-time screening blood test for everyone at increased risk of the infection. The largest group at risk includes everyone born between 1945 and 1965 — a population five times more likely to be infected than those born in other years.

Symptoms

Long-term infection with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) is known as chronic hepatitis C. Chronic hepatitis C is usually a “silent” infection for many years, until the virus damages the liver enough to cause the signs and symptoms of liver disease. Among these signs and symptoms are:

• Bleeding easily
• Bruising easily
• Fatigue
• Poor appetite
• Yellow discoloration of the skin and eyes (jaundice)
• Dark-colored urine
• Itchy skin
• Fluid buildup in your abdomen (ascites)
• Swelling in your legs
• Weight loss
• Confusion, drowsiness and slurred speech (hepatic encephalopathy)
• Spider-like blood vessels on your skin (spider angiomas)

Every chronic hepatitis C infection starts with an acute phase. Acute hepatitis C usually goes undiagnosed because it rarely causes symptoms. When signs and symptoms are present, they may include jaundice, along with fatigue, nausea, fever and muscle aches. Acute symptoms appear one to three months after exposure to the virus and last two weeks to three months.

Acute hepatitis C infection doesn’t always become chronic. Some people clear HCV from their bodies after the acute phase, an outcome known as spontaneous viral clearance. In studies of people diagnosed with acute HCV, rates of spontaneous viral clearance have varied from 14 to 50 percent. Acute hepatitis C also responds well to antiviral therapy.

Causes

Hepatitis C infection is caused by the hepatitis C virus. The infection spreads when blood contaminated with the virus enters the bloodstream of an uninfected person.

Globally, HCV exists in several distinct forms, known as genotypes. The most common HCV genotype in North America and Europe is type 1. Type 2 also occurs in the United States and Europe, but is less common than type 1. Both type 1 and type 2 have also spread through much of the world, although other genotypes cause a majority of infections in the Middle East, Asia and Africa.

Although chronic hepatitis C follows a similar course regardless of the genotype of the infecting virus, treatment recommendations vary depending on viral genotype.

Risk factors

Your risk of hepatitis C infection is increased if you:

• Are a health care worker who has been exposed to infected blood, which may happen if an infected needle pierces your skin
• Have ever injected or inhaled illicit drugs
• Have HIV
• Received a piercing or tattoo in an unclean environment using unsterile equipment
• Received a blood transfusion or organ transplant before 1992
• Received clotting factor concentrates before 1987
• Received hemodialysis treatments for a long period of time
• Were born to a woman with a hepatitis C infection
• Were ever in prison
• Were born between 1945 and 1965, the age group with the highest incidence of hepatitis C infection

Complications

Normal liver vs. liver cirrhosis

Liver cancer

Hepatitis C infection that continues over many years can cause significant complications, such as:

• Scarring of the liver (cirrhosis). After 20 to 30 years of hepatitis C infection, cirrhosis may occur. Scarring in your liver makes it difficult for your liver to function.
• Liver cancer. A small number of people with hepatitis C infection may develop liver cancer.
• Liver failure. Advanced cirrhosis may cause your liver to stop functioning.

Prevention

Protect yourself from hepatitis C infection by taking the following precautions:

• Stop using illicit drugs, particularly if you inject them. If you use illicit drugs, seek help.
• Be cautious about body piercing and tattooing. If you choose to undergo piercing or tattooing, look for a reputable shop. Ask questions beforehand about how the equipment is cleaned. Make sure the employees use sterile needles. If employees won’t answer your questions, look for another shop.
• Practice safer sex. Don’t engage in unprotected sex with multiple partners or with any partner whose health status is uncertain. Sexual transmission between monogamous couples may occur, but the risk is low.

Hepatitis B is a serious liver infection caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV). For some people, hepatitis B infection becomes chronic, meaning it lasts more than six months. Having chronic hepatitis B increases your risk of developing liver failure, liver cancer or cirrhosis — a condition that permanently scars of the liver.

Most adults with hepatitis B recover fully, even if their signs and symptoms are severe. Infants and children are more likely to develop a chronic (long-lasting) hepatitis B infection.

A vaccine can prevent hepatitis B, but there’s no cure if you have the condition. If you’re infected, taking certain precautions can help prevent spreading the virus to others.

Symptoms

Signs and symptoms of hepatitis B range from mild to severe. They usually appear about one to four months after you’ve been infected, although you could see them as early as two weeks post-infection. Some people, usually young children, may not have any symptoms.

Hepatitis B signs and symptoms may include:

• Abdominal pain
• Dark urine
• Fever
• Joint pain
• Loss of appetite
• Nausea and vomiting
• Weakness and fatigue
• Yellowing of your skin and the whites of your eyes (jaundice)

When to see a doctor

If you know you’ve been exposed to hepatitis B, contact your doctor immediately. A preventive treatment may reduce your risk of infection if you receive the treatment within 24 hours of exposure to the virus.

If you think you have signs or symptoms of hepatitis B, contact your doctor.

Causes

Hepatitis B infection is caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV). The virus is passed from person to person through blood, semen or other body fluids. It does not spread by sneezing or coughing.

Common ways that HBV can spread are:

• Sexual contact. You may get hepatitis B if you have unprotected sex with someone who is infected. The virus can pass to you if the person’s blood, saliva, semen or vaginal secretions enter your body.
• Sharing of needles. HBV easily spreads through needles and syringes contaminated with infected blood. Sharing IV drug paraphernalia puts you at high risk of hepatitis B.
• Accidental needle sticks. Hepatitis B is a concern for health care workers and anyone else who comes in contact with human blood.
• Mother to child. Pregnant women infected with HBV can pass the virus to their babies during childbirth. However, the newborn can be vaccinated to avoid getting infected in almost all cases. Talk to your doctor about being tested for hepatitis B if you are pregnant or want to become pregnant.

Risk factors

Hepatitis B spreads through contact with blood, semen or other body fluids from an infected person. Your risk of hepatitis B infection increases if you:

• Have unprotected sex with multiple sex partners or with someone who’s infected with HBV
• Share needles during IV drug use
• Are a man who has sex with other men
• Live with someone who has a chronic HBV infection
• Are an infant born to an infected mother
• Have a job that exposes you to human blood
• Travel to regions with high infection rates of HBV, such as Asia, the Pacific Islands, Africa and Eastern Europe

Complications

Having a chronic HBV infection can lead to serious complications, such as:

• Scarring of the liver (cirrhosis). The inflammation associated with a hepatitis B infection can lead to extensive liver scarring (cirrhosis), which may impair the liver’s ability to function.
• Liver cancer. People with chronic hepatitis B infection have an increased risk of liver cancer.
• Liver failure. Acute liver failure is a condition in which the vital functions of the liver shut down. When that occurs, a liver transplant is necessary to sustain life.
• Other conditions. People with chronic hepatitis B may develop kidney disease or inflammation of blood vessels.

Prevention

The hepatitis B vaccine is typically given as three or four injections over six months. You can’t get hepatitis B from the vaccine.

The hepatitis B vaccine is recommended for:

• Newborns
• Children and adolescents not vaccinated at birth
• Those who work or live in a center for people who are developmentally disabled
• People who live with someone who has hepatitis B
• Health care workers, emergency workers and other people who come into contact with blood
• Anyone who has a sexually transmitted infection, including HIV
• Men who have sex with men
• People who have multiple sexual partners
• Sexual partners of someone who has hepatitis B
• People who inject illegal drugs or share needles and syringes
• People with chronic liver disease
• People with end-stage kidney disease
• Travelers planning to go to an area of the world with a high hepatitis B infection rate

Nutrition

Nutrition  in food is related to maintenance, growth, reproduction, health and disease of an organism. It includes food intake, absorption, assimilation, biosynthesis, catabolism, and excretion. Good nutrition is an important part of leading a healthy lifestyle. Combined with physical activity, your diet can help you to reach and maintain a healthy weight, reduce your risk of chronic diseases (like heart disease and cancer), and promote your overall health.

Unhealthy eating habits have contributed to the obesity epidemic in the United States: about one-third of U.S. adults (33.8%) are obese and approximately 17% (or 12.5 million) of children and adolescents aged 2—19 years are obese.1 Even for people at a healthy weight, a poor diet is associated with major health risks that can cause illness and even death. These include heart disease, hypertension (high blood pressure), type 2 diabetes, osteoporosis, and certain types of cancer. By making smart food choices, you can help protect yourself from these health problems.

The risk factors for adult chronic diseases, like hypertension and type 2 diabetes, are increasingly seen in younger ages, often a result of unhealthy eating habits and increased weight gain. Dietary habits established in childhood often carry into adulthood, so teaching children how to eat healthy at a young age will help them stay healthy throughout their life.

The link between good nutrition and healthy weight, reduced chronic disease risk, and overall health is too important to ignore. By taking steps to eat healthy, you’ll be on your way to getting the nutrients your body needs to stay healthy, active, and strong. As with physical activity, making small changes in your diet can go a long way, and it’s easier than you think! A good nutrition improve well being ,help to maintain immune system , delay the effect of aging ,healthy eating positively effect mood , increase focus ,healthy diet may lengthen your life .

Infection and malnutrition have always been intricately linked. Malnutrition is the primary cause of immunodeficiency worldwide, and we are learning more and more about the pathogenesis of this interaction. Five infectious diseases account for more than one-half of all deaths in children aged <5 years, most of whom are undernourished. Micronutrient deficiencies have effects such as poor growth, impaired intellect, and increased mortality and susceptibility to infection. The worldwide magnitude of parasite infection is enormous. It is understood that parasites may lead to malnutrition, but the extent to which malnutrition causes increased parasite infestation is not known; thus, the conditions need to be addressed together. Nutritional deficiencies associated with pregnancy are associated with poor immune response to infection. Because this immune deficiency is partially compensated by breast-feeding, this is the single best way to protect infants from infection. Malnutrition and nutritional alterations, common complications of human immunodeficiency virus infection, include disorders of food intake, nutrient absorption, and intermediary metabolism and play a significant and independent role in morbidity and mortality. The 21st century provides new information and new challenges. With new technologies and political changes, it is hoped that a healthier, more disease-free, and better-nourished population will emerge.

The 21st century will bring better knowledge of the dynamics and kinetics of specific immune responses; discovery of and better understanding of newer cytokines in the control of nutritional status and immune activation; more real-time noninvasive sampling methods, such as saliva or urine tests for analysis, gene sequencing, and proteomics to examine individual susceptibilities; and improvements in mass vaccination. It may be possible to determine the specific mechanisms by which individual nutrients affect the immune system and thus to directly target activation and regulation of immune pathways.

Controlling malaria, measles, diarrhea, and parasitic infections can also help the body to absorb and retain essential vitamins and minerals. The estimated ratios of benefit to cost for such nutrition interventions range from 4:1 to 520:1

Children, who typically have less nutritional reserve than adults, are particularly susceptible to malnutrition and contaminated water. In addition to potability, water quality is also important for personal sanitation, to prevent contact spread of diarrhea and other infections. Currently, malnutrition is to blame for more than one-half of all deaths of children around the world, primarily deaths caused by diarrhea, pneumonia, malaria, and measles. Poor nourishment leaves children underweight, weakened, and vulnerable to fatal and nonfatal infections. It is estimated that feeding all children worldwide an adequate diet would prevent ∼1 million deaths per year caused by pneumonia, 800,000 caused by diarrhea, 500,000 caused by malaria, and 250,000 caused by measles . These conditions are preventable, providing that the insight, coordination, political will, and funding are available.

Good nutritional habits and a balanced diet aren’t developed in one day, nor are they destroyed in one unbalanced meal. Healthful eating means a lifestyle of making choices and decisions, planning, and knowing how to make quick and wise choices when you haven’t planned .What you learn about eating in these  on your own will help establish good dietary patterns for the rest of your life. Making the break from home cooking and becoming responsible for choosing the foods you eat is part of the challenge of becoming a mature and an independent adult. It is a challenge that should not be taken lightly. The nutritional habits you develop now will be difficult to change in the coming years when your body stops growing and your lifestyle may become more sedentary. Learning to make sensible choices from a confusing array of options is not easy, but the rewards are great. Eating nutritious and healthful food while maintaining your proper body weight will contribute to a better performance in the classroom, in the gym, and on the dance floor. You will feel and look your best. In contrast, a poor diet can lead to insidious health problems that can interfere with success in academic and social performance and may eventually mean confronting a serious long-term illness, such as heart disease or diabetes. Knowing how much and what to eat is important knowledge.
