Health Tips - Introcuction to antioxidants

               

Why the South Koreans ,Chinese,United States players pick up Gold Medals is Olympics ? Mainly due to their diet which keeps them fit and strong. We shall be discussing as to how to maintain Body's Immune System to fight against Ageing Process.

Anti oxidants are the most essentials for slowing down the ageing process. Take the example of iron bars or rods bearing all the seasons rains, sunny days, winter etc. Iron gets oxidized to form Rust (Iron oxide) and this process is called oxidation .To save the iron from rust we paint it with enamel and rust proof primers. Similarly our Body is exposed to polluted air, polluted water and scorching sun under Global Warming atmosphere.Our Body gets rusted (oxygen radicals) that is we are ageing faster than ever before and we need Antioxidants to save our Body from rusting or we may call it ageing. Antioxidants that act to detoxify oxygen radicals that have been linked to body cell degeneration and ageing. It has been suggested that vitamin and micro nutrient deficiencies may be responsible for some aspects of human ageing.

Vitamin C, Zinc and Selenium are some of the antioxidants. Nutritious diet can supply all the Vitamins and Minerals required to boost immunity and remain healthy. 

Health Tips - Forget Your Age to Look Younger Live Longer

Health Tips Vitamin C to build Immunity

STRAWBERRIES 

KIWI FRUIT

Also called ascorbic acid, is an antioxidant that protects your cells from harmful chemicals and toxins and stimulates your immune system. Vitamin C affects several parts of your immune system. Vitamin C stimulates production and function of white blood cells(TLC), particularly lymphocytes, neutrophils, and phagocytes. These cells accumulate high concentrations of vitamin C to protect against oxidation damage. Vitamin C may increase interferon, a protein that can stop the growth and spread of cancer cells and viruses. Foods rich in Vitamin C are Guavas, Broccoli, Cauliflower, Sprouts, Kiwi Fruits,  Papayas, Oranges, Lemon and all citrus fruits, Strawberries.

Health Bulletin - Build Up Your Bodily Resistence

By building up your bodily resistance you can fight infections which are inevitable in the second half of your life after you turn up 50 years.Our bloodstream is the river of life which nourishes every part of our body. Blood stream is a two way river - one is arterial blood stream carrying nourishment along with oxygen for its utilisation by the body cells and the other is venous blood stream which removes carbon dioxide and other waste matter from our body cells. Believe it or not this Blood Stream RIVER in the body is more than 60000 miles long. For proper nourishment of every organ in our body ,the arterial blood stream must contain essential Daily Supply of Nutrients. PROTEIN,containing all essential amino acids, is the main nutrient which can produce its own ARMY of antibodies and cells which destroy bacteria and viruses invading our body. High protein diet can improve by one hundred times the producing of ANTIBODIES within a week and we may not need antibiotics to fight infections and viruses as our defence mechanism will be strong enough to fight.  In addition to PROTEIN we need Vitamin A and Vitamin C for building up bodily resistance and to fight infections. Vitamin A is found in all yellow and green vegetables and fruits,butter and cream. Vitamin A can be supplemented by taking fish liver oil capsules (25000 to 50000 units) immediately after meals. Fish liver oil capsules are available in the market without prescription.If Vitamin A is taken in excess say up to 100000 units ,it is not harmful and it is stored by the body system for future protection. By taking Vit A as above and Vitamin C tablets (500 mg per day) for 60 days ,before COLD WINTER season sets on, one can ward off troublesome infections such as cough, cold, sore throat ,sneezing etc.We shall be discussing how to prevent infections and and other problems faced by body's main ORGANS.

Health Tips - Vital Organs - Kidneys

KIDNEYS : Like the heart , the Kidneys are sturdy and can take abuse. We must   understand the role of Kidneys and its basics.Role of Kidneys in emergency is magnificent. Our kidneys are bean-shaped organs, each about the size of our fist. They are located near the middle of our back, just below the rib cage. The kidneys are sophisticated trash collectors. Every day, our kidneys process about 200 quarts of blood to flush out about 2 quarts of waste products and extra water. The waste and extra water become urine, which flows to our bladder through tubes called ureters. Our bladder stores urine until we go to the bathroom. The kidneys remove wastes and extra water from the blood to form urine. Urine flows from the kidneys to the bladder through the ureters.

The wastes in our blood come from the normal breakdown of active muscle and from the food we eat. Our body uses the food for energy and self-repairs. After our body has taken what it needs from the food, waste is sent to the blood. If our kidneys do not remove these wastes, the wastes would build up in the blood and damage our body. The actual filtering occurs in tiny units inside our kidneys called nephrons. Every kidney has about a million nephrons. In the nephron, tiny blood vessels called capillaries intertwine with tiny urine-carrying tubes called tubules. A complicated chemical exchange takes place, as waste materials and water leave our blood and enter our urinary system.

At first, the tubules receive a combination of waste materials and chemicals that our body can still use. Our kidneys measure out chemicals like sodium, phosphorus, and potassium and release them back to the blood to return to the body. In this way, our kidneys regulate the body's level of these substances. The right balance is necessary for life, but excess levels can be harmful. In the nephron (left), tiny blood vessels intertwine with urine-collecting tubes. Each kidney contains about 1 million nephrons.

In addition to removing wastes, our kidneys release important hormones  which stimulate the bones to make red blood cells, regulate blood pressure and the active form of vitamin D, which helps maintain calcium for bones and for normal chemical balance in the body.

What Is "Renal Function"?

If you have two healthy kidneys, you have 100 percent of our renal function. This is more renal function than you really need. Some people are born with only one kidney and these people are able to lead normal, healthy lives. Many people donate a kidney for transplantation to a family member or friend. Small declines in renal function do not cause a problem. In fact, you can be healthy with 50 percent of our renal function if it remains stable.

But many people with 50 percent of their renal function have a kidney disease that will get worse. You will have some serious health problems if you have less than 20 percent of our renal functin. If our renal function drops below 10 to 15 percent, you cannot live long without some form of renal replacement therapy - either dialysis or transplantation.

How to keep Kidneys healthy: Through adequate diet and nutrition, the kidneys can be depended upon to do their share and to function faithfully throughout your long life.There is a definite relationship between good Kidney fuctioning and good Heart functioning.Normal blood pressure of the kidneys is higher than that of other parts of the body so as to force blood plasma into the kidney tubules. Abnormally high blood pressure on the already high but normal pressure in the kidneys can deteriorate the delecate tissues of the kidneys.Kidney Stones is another are another cause of Kidney troubles in addition to ther causes such as infections etc.Vitamin A deficiencies are one of the major cause to produce Kidney stones. In kidney infections Blood Proteins, which can't pass into urine normally, pass through the damaged tubules and are lost. Maintainence of Blood Proteins is VITAL for the human body.These proteins attract into the blood stream to wash out waste materials from all body tissues.When Blood Proteins are lost in urine or the diet is deficient in proteins, the normal amount of protein can't be maintained and liquids tend to accummulate in the body especially in the feet,ankles and legs. When kidneys are damaged to an extent that too much blood proteins are lost, wastes can't be collected resulting into uraemic poisioning through failure to excrete uric acid.

In the prevention of kidney troubles, a high resistance to infection through strong immune system (Read our articles and Health Tips on Immunity ) must be maintained. Diet must be well planned with plenty of B Vitamins for example (brewers' yeast) ,to keep the blood pressure normal, Milk and cereals to keep the urine acidic, food to supply essential proteins and above all fish-liver oil capsules, carrots, and leafy green vegetables for supplying the indispensable Vitamin A.

Food Sources rich in PROTEINS: Non-Veg foods are not discussed.

Milk, Cheese, and Yoghurt

Not only are dairy foods -- like milk, cheese, and yoghurt -- excellent sources of protein but they also contain valuable calcium, and many are fortified with vitamin D. Choose skim or low fat dairy to keep bones and teeth strong and prevent osteoporosis. 

Eggs

Eggs are one of the least expensive forms of protein. The American Heart Association says normal healthy adults can safely enjoy an egg a day.

Beans

One-half cup of beans contains as much protein as an ounce of broiled steak. Plus, these nutritious nuggets are loaded with fiber to keep you feeling full for hours

Soya

Fifty grams of soy protein daily can help lower cholesterol about 3%. Eating soy protein instead of sources of protein higher in fat -- along with a healthy diet -- can be heart healthy

Protein at Breakfast

Research shows that including a source of protein like an egg or Indian yoghurt at breakfast along with a high fiber grain like whole wheat toast can help you feel full longer and eat less throughout the day.

Drinking Water Immediately after Meals can be Injurious to Health

सबसे पहले आप हमेशा ये बात याद रखें कि शरीर मे सारी बीमारियाँ वात-पित्त और कफ के बिगड़ने से ही होती हैं !

अब आप पूछेंगे ये वात-पित्त और कफ क्या होता है ???

बहुत ज्यादा गहराई मे जाने की जरूरत नहीं आप ऐसे समझे की सिर से लेकर छाती के बीच तक जितने रोग होते हैं वो सब कफ बिगड़ने के कारण होते हैं ! छाती के बीच से लेकर पेट और कमर के अंत तक जितने रोग होते हैं वो पित्त बिगड़ने के कारण होते हैं !और कमर से लेकर घुटने और पैरों के अंत तक जितने रोग होते हैं वो सब वात बिगड़ने के कारण होते हैं !

हमारे हाथ की कलाई मे ये वात-पित्त और कफ की तीन नाड़ियाँ होती हैं ! भारत मे ऐसे ऐसे नाड़ी विशेषज्ञ रहे हैं जो आपकी नाड़ी पकड़ कर ये बता दिया करते थे कि आपने एक सप्ताह पहले क्या खाया एक दिन पहले क्या खाया -दो पहले क्या खाया !! और नाड़ी पकड़ कर ही बता देते थे कि आपको क्या रोग है ! आजकल ऐसी बहुत ही कम मिलते हैं !

शायद आपके मन मे सवाल आए ये वात -पित्त कफ दिखने मे कैसे होते हैं ???

तो फिलहाल आप इतना जान लीजिये ! कफ और पित्त लगभग एक जैसे होते हैं ! आम भाषा मे नाक से निकलने वाली बलगम को कफ कहते हैं ! कफ थोड़ा गाढ़ा और चिपचिपा होता है ! मुंह मे से निकलने वाली बलगम को पित्त कहते हैं ! ये कम चिपचिपा और द्रव्य जैसा होता है !! और शरीर से निकले वाली वायु को वात कहते हैं !! ये अदृश्य होती है !

कई बार पेट मे गैस बनने के कारण सिर दर्द होता है तो इसे आप कफ का रोग नहीं कहेंगे इसे पित्त का रोग कहेंगे !! क्यूंकि पित्त बिगड़ने से गैस हो रही है और सिर दर्द हो रहा है ! ये ज्ञान बहुत गहरा है खैर आप इतना याद रखें कि इस वात -पित्त और कफ के संतुलन के बिगड़ने से ही सभी रोग आते हैं !

और ये तीनों ही मनुष्य की आयु के साथ अलग अलग ढंग से बढ़ते हैं ! बच्चे के पैदा होने से 14 वर्ष की आयु तक कफ के रोग ज्यादा होते है ! बार बार खांसी ,सर्दी ,छींके आना आदि होगा ! 14 वर्ष से 60 साल तक पित्त के रोग सबसे ज्यादा होते हैं बार बार पेट दर्द करना ,गैस बनना ,खट्टी खट्टी डकारे आना आदि !! और उसके बाद बुढ़ापे मे वात के रोग सबसे ज्यादा होते हैं घुटने दुखना ,जोड़ो का दर्द आदि !

भारत मे 3 हजार साल पहले एक ऋषि हुए है उनका नाम था वाग्बट्ट ! उन्होने ने एक किताब लिखी जिसका नाम था अष्टांग हृदयं !! वो ऋषि 135 साल तक की आयु तक जीवित रहे थे ! अष्टांग हृदयं मे वाग्बट्टजी कहते
हैं की जिंदगी मे वात्त,पित्त और कफ संतुलित रखना ही सबसे अच्छी कला है और कौशल्य है सारी जिंदगी प्रयास पूर्वक आपको एक ही काम करना है की हमारा वात्त,पित्त और कफ नियमित रहे,संतुलित रहे और सुरक्षित रहे|जितना चाहिए उतना वात्त रहे,जितना चाहिए उतना पित्त रहे और जितना चाहिए उतना कफ रहे|तो जितना चाहिए उतना वात्त,पित्त और कफ रहे उसके लिए क्या करना है!

उसके लिए उन्होने 7000 सूत्र लिखे हैं उस किताब मे ! उसमे सबसे महत्व पूर्ण और पहला सूत्र है :

भोजनान्ते विषं वारी (मतलब खाना खाने के तुरंत बाद पानी पीना जहर पीने के बराबर है | )

अब समझते हैं क्या कहा वाग्बट्टजी ने !! कभी भी खाना खाने के तुरंत बाद पानी नहीं पीना !! अब आप कहेंगे हम तो हमेशा यही करते हैं ! 99% लोग ऐसे होते है जो पानी लिए बिना खाना नहीं खाते है |पानी पहले होता है खाना बाद मे होता है |बहुत सारे लोग तो खाना खाने से ज्यादा पानी पीते है दो-चार रोटी के टुकडो को खाया फिर पानी पिया,फिर खाया-फिर पानी पिया ! ऐसी अवस्था मे वाग्बट्टजी बिलकुल ऐसी बात करते हे की पानी ही नहीं पीना खाना खाने के बाद ! कारण क्या ? क्यों नहीं पीना है ??

ये जानना बहुत जरुरी है ...हम पानी क्यों ना पीये खाना खाने के बाद क्या कारण है |

बात ऐसी है की हमारा जो शरीर है शरीर का पूरा केंद्र है हमारा पेट|ये पूरा शरीर चलता है पेट की ताकत से और पेट चलता है भोजन की ताकत से|जो कुछ भी हम खाते है वो ही हमारे पेट की ताकत है |हमने दाल खाई,हमने सब्जी खाई, हमने रोटी खाई, हमने दही खाया लस्सी पी कुछ भी दूध,दही छाझ लस्सी फल आदि|ये सब कुछ भोजन के रूप मे हमने ग्रहण किया ये सब कुछ हमको उर्जा देता है और पेट उस उर्जा को आगे ट्रांसफर करता है |आप कुछ भी खाते है पेट उसके लिए उर्जा का आधार बनता है |अब हम खाते है तो पेट मे सब कुछ जाता है|पेट मे एक छोटा सा स्थान होता है जिसको हम हिंदी मे कहते है अमाशय|उसी स्थान का संस्कृत नाम है जठर|उसी स्थान को अंग्रेजी मे कहते है epigastrium, |ये एक थेली की तरह होता है और यह जठर हमारे शरीर मे सबसे महत्वपूर्ण है क्योंकि सारा खाना सबसे पहले इसी मे आता है ये |बहुत छोटा सा स्थान हैं इसमें अधिक से अधिक 350 Gms खाना आ सकता है |हम कुछ भी खाते सब ये अमाशय मे आ जाता है|

अब अमाशय मे क्या होता है खाना जैसे ही पहुँचता है तो यह भगवान की बनाई हुई व्यवस्था है जो शरीर मे है की तुरंत इसमें आग(अग्नि) जल जाती है |आमाशय मे अग्नि प्रदीप्त होती है उसी को कहते हे जठराग्नि|ये जठराग्नि है वो अमाशय मे प्रदीप्त होने वाली आग है |ये आग ऐसी ही होती है जेसे रसोई गेस की आग|आप की रसोई गेस की आग है ना की जेसे आपने स्विच ओन किया आग जल गयी|ऐसे ही पेट मे होता है जेसे ही आपने खाना खाया की जठराग्नि प्रदीप्त हो गयी |यह ऑटोमेटिक है,जेसे ही अपने रोटी का पहला टुकड़ा मुँह मे डाला की इधर जठराग्नि प्रदीप्त हो गई|ये अग्नि तब तक जलती हे जब तक खाना पचता है |आपने खाना खाया और अग्नि जल गयी अब अग्नि खाने को पचाती है |वो ऐसे ही पचाती है जेसे रसोई गेस|आपने रसोई गेस पर बरतन रखकर थोडा दूध डाल दिया और उसमे चावल डाल दिया तो जब तक अग्नि जलेगी तब तक खीर बनेगी|इसी तरह अपने पानी डाल दिया और चावल डाल दिए तो जब तक अग्नि जलेगी चावल पकेगा|

अब अपने खाते ही गटागट पानी पी लिया और खूब ठंडा पानी पी लिया|और कई लोग तो बोतल पे बोतल पी जाते है |अब होने वाला एक ही काम है जो आग(जठराग्नि) जल रही थी वो बुझ गयी|आग अगर बुझ गयी तो खाने की पचने की जो क्रिया है वो रुक गयी|अब हमेशा याद रखें खाना पचने पर हमारे पेट मे दो ही क्रिया होती है |एक क्रिया है जिसको हम कहते हे Digestion और दूसरी है fermentation. फर्मेंटेशन का मतलब है सडना और डायजेशन का मतलब हे पचना|

आयुर्वेद के हिसाब से आग जलेगी तो खाना पचेगा,खाना पचेगा तो उसका रस बनेगा|जो रस बनेगा तो उसी रस से मांस,मज्जा,रक्त,वीर्य,हड्डिया,मल,मूत्र और अस्थि बनेगा और सबसे अंत मे मेद बनेगा|ये तभी होगा जब खाना पचेगा|

अब ध्यान से पढ़े इन् शब्दों को मांस की हमें जरुरत है हम सबको,मज्जा की जरुरत है ,रक्त की भी जरुरत है ,वीर्य की भी जरुरत है ,अस्थि भी चाहिए,मेद भी चाहिए|यह सब हमें चाहिए|जो नहीं चाहिए वो मल नहीं चाहिए और मूत्र नहीं चाहिए|मल और मूत्र बनेगा जरुर ! लेकिन वो हमें चाहिए नहीं तो शरीर हर दिन उसको छोड़ देगा|मल को भी छोड़ देगा और मूत्र को भी छोड़ देगा बाकि जो चाहिए शरीर उसको धारण कर लेगा|

ये तो हुई खाना पचने की बात अब जब खाना सड़ेगा तब क्या होगा..? अगर आपने खाना खाने के तुरंत बाद पानी पी लिया तो जठराग्नि नहीं जलेगी,खाना नहीं पचेगा और वही खाना फिर सड़ेगा और सड़ने के बाद उसमे जहर बनेंगे|

खाने के सड़ने पर सबसे पहला जहर जो बनता है वो हे यूरिक एसिड (uric acid ) कई बार आप डॉक्टर के पास जाकर कहते है की मुझे घुटने मे दर्द हो रहा है ,मुझे कंधे-कमर मे दर्द हो रहा है तो डॉक्टर कहेगा आपका यूरिक एसिड बढ़ रहा है आप ये दवा खाओ,वो दवा खाओ यूरिक एसिड कम करो|यह यूरिक एसिड विष (जहर ) है और यह इतना खतरनाक विष है की अगर अपने इसको कन्ट्रोल नहीं किया तो ये आपके शरीर को उस स्थिति मे ले जा सकता है की आप एक कदम भी चल ना सके|आपको बिस्तर मे ही पड़े रहना पड़े पेशाब भी बिस्तर मे करनी पड़े और संडास भी बिस्तर मे ही करनी पड़े यूरिक एसिड इतना खतरनाक है |इस लिए यह इतना खराब विष हे नहीं बनना चाहिए |

और एक दूसरा उदाहरण खाना जब सड़ता है तो यूरिक एसिड जेसा ही एक दूसरा विष बनता है जिसको हम कहते हे LDL (Low Density lipoprotive) माने खराब कोलेस्ट्रोल (cholesterol )| जब आप ब्लड प्रेशर(BP) चेक कराने डॉक्टर के पास जाते हैं तो वो आपको कहता है (HIGH BP )हाय बीपी है आप पूछोगे कारण बताओ? तो वो कहेगा कोलेस्ट्रोल बहुत ज्यादा बढ़ा हुआ है |आप ज्यादा पूछोगे की कोलेस्ट्रोल कौनसा बहुत है ? तो वो आपको कहेगा LDL बहुत है |

इससे भी ज्यादा खतरनाक विष हे वो है VLDL(Very Low Density lipoprotive)|ये भी कोलेस्ट्रॉल जेसा ही विष है |अगर VLDL बहुत बढ़ गया तो आपको भगवान ही  बचा सकता है | खाना सड़ने पर और जो जहर बनते है उसमे एक ओर विष है जिसको अंग्रेजी मे हम कहते है  triglycerides. जब भी डॉक्टर आपको कहे की आपका triglycerides बढ़ा हुआ हे तो समज लीजिए की आपके शरीर मे विष निर्माण हो रहा है |

तो कोई यूरिक एसिड के नाम से कहे,कोई कोलेस्ट्रोल के नाम से कहे,कोई LDL - VLDL के नाम से कहे समझ लीजिए की ये विष हे और ऐसे विष 103 है |ये सभी विष तब बनते है जब खाना सड़ता है |

मतलब समझ लीजिए किसी का कोलेस्ट्रोल बढ़ा हुआ है तो एक ही मिनिट मे ध्यान आना चाहिए की खाना पच नहीं रहा है ,कोई कहता हे मेरा triglycerides बहुत बढ़ा हुआ है तो एक ही मिनिट मे डायग्नोसिस कर लीजिए आप ! की आपका खाना पच नहीं रहा है |कोई कहता है मेरा यूरिक एसिड बढ़ा हुआ है तो एक ही मिनिट लगना चाहिए समझने मे की खाना पच नहीं रहा है |

क्योंकि खाना पचने पर इनमे से कोई भी जहर नहीं बनता|खाना पचने पर जो बनता है वो है मांस,मज्जा,रक्त,वीर्य,हड्डिया,मल,मूत्र,अस्थि और खाना नहीं पचने पर बनता है यूरिक एसिड,कोलेस्ट्रोल,LDL-VLDL| और यही आपके शरीर को रोगों का घर बनाते है !

पेट मे बनने वाला यही जहर जब ज्यादा बढ़कर खून मे आते है ! तो खून दिल की नाड़ियो मे से निकल नहीं पाता और रोज थोड़ा थोड़ा कचरा जो खून मे आया है इकट्ठा होता रहता है और एक दिन नाड़ी को ब्लॉक कर देता है जिसे आप heart attack कहते हैं !

तो हमें जिंदगी मे ध्यान इस बात पर देना है की जो हम खा रहे हे वो शरीर मे ठीक से पचना चाहिए और खाना ठीक से पचना चाहिए इसके लिए पेट मे ठीक से आग(जठराग्नि) प्रदीप्त होनी ही चाहिए|क्योंकि बिना आग के खाना पचता नहीं हे और खाना पकता भी नहीं है |रसोई मे आग नहीं हे आप कुछ नहीं पका सकते और पेट मे आग नहीं हे आप कुछ नहीं पचा सकते|

महत्व की बात खाने को खाना नहीं खाने को पचाना है |आपने क्या खाया कितना खाया वो महत्व नहीं हे कोई कहता हे मैंने 100 ग्राम खाया,कोई कहता है मैंने 200 ग्राम खाया,कोई कहता है मैंने 300 ग्राम खाया वो कुछ
महत्व का नहीं है लेकिन आपने पचाया कितना वो महत्व है |आपने 100 ग्राम खाया और 100 ग्राम पचाया बहुत अच्छा है |और अगर आपने 200 ग्राम खाया और सिर्फ 100 ग्राम पचाया वो बहुत बेकार है |आपने 300 ग्राम खाया और उसमे से 100 ग्राम भी पचा नहीं सके वो बहुत खराब है !!

खाना पच नहीं रहा तो समझ लीजिये विष निर्माण हो रहा है शरीर में ! और यही सारी बीमारियो का कारण है ! तो खाना अच्छे से पचे इसके लिए वाग्भट्ट जी ने सूत्र दिया !!

भोजनान्ते विषं वारी (मतलब खाना खाने के तुरंत बाद पानी पीना जहर पीने के बराबर है )

इसलिए खाने के तुरंत बाद पानी कभी मत पिये !

अब आपके मन मे सवाल आएगा कितनी देर तक नहीं पीना ???

तो 1 घंटे 48 मिनट तक नहीं पीना ! अब आप कहेंगे इसका क्या calculation हैं ??

बात ऐसी है ! जब हम खाना खाते हैं तो जठराग्नि द्वारा सब एक दूसरे मे मिक्स होता है और फिर खाना पेस्ट मे बदलता हैं है ! पेस्ट मे बदलने की क्रिया होने तक 1 घंटा 48 मिनट का समय लगता है ! उसके बाद जठराग्नि कम हो जाती है ! (बुझती तो नहीं लेकिन बहुत धीमी हो जाती है )

पेस्ट बनने के बाद शरीर मे रस बनने की परिक्रिया शुरू होती है ! तब हमारे शरीर को पानी की जरूरत होती हैं तब आप जितना इच्छा हो उतना पानी पिये !!

जो बहुत मेहनती लोग है (खेत मे हल चलाने वाले ,रिक्शा खीचने वाले पत्थर तोड़ने वाले !! उनको 1 घंटे के बाद ही रस बनने लगता है उनको एक घंटे बाद पानी पीना चाहिए !

अब आप कहेंगे खाना खाने के पहले कितने मिनट तक पानी पी सकते हैं ???

तो खाना खाने के 45 मिनट पहले तक आप पानी पी सकते हैं ! अब आप पूछेंगे ये 45 मिनट का calculation ????

बात ऐसी ही जब हम पानी पीते हैं तो वो शरीर के प्रत्येक अंग तक जाता है ! और अगर बच जाये तो 45 मिनट बाद मूत्र पिंड तक पहुंचता है ! तो पानी - पीने से मूत्र पिंड तक आने का समय 45 मिनट का है ! तो आप खाना खाने से 45 मिनट पहले ही पाने पिये !

तो यहाँ एक सूत्र समाप्त हुआ ! आपने पूरी post पढ़ी बहुत बहुत धन्यवाद !!

इसका जरूर पालण करे ! अधिक अधिक लोगो को बताएं post share करे !!

बहुत बहुत धन्यवाद !

Health Tips - Venous Blood - circulation

Leech

The organs of our body can function properly and stay young and healthy only if inflow of life giving arterial blood to the organs and the outflow of waste venous blood is uninterrupted and balanced. When the circulation in any organ is thrown out of order due to retarded venous outflow, the cells of that organ do not get their share of nutrition and oxygen. The organs starve and their capacity to resist bacterial poisons and germs is reduced and organs fall prey to disease. As such the interruption in the outflow of waste venous blood is the root cause of poor arterial blood supply to the organs.  Disturbance of any organ's blood circulation can be due to one and the same cause that is venous congestion. One of the major reasons can be infected veins as focal primary infections of teeth and tonsils spread their toxicity via small connecting veins to jugular vein and from their to the rest of the body, especially the veins of the legs. To correct the inflamed veins of the legs pressure bandages are applied and in the olden days since the dawn of history - the Leech (Hindi meaning Jonk Lagana) therapy was used to draw venous blood so as     to  get rid of toxic blood from the venous veins. Here it is am amazing story of 1960's about the horse named SILENT, an Australian race horse  who broke down in a race. One day the horse was standing in a Leech infested swamp and many leeches climbed to his legs and the horse developed a liking for the leeches to suck its venous blood from the veins in the legs. In a short time the horse began to show marked improvement in health. What a Horse Sense ! the horse turned into a Winner in the Horse Race. Improve the blood circulation, get rid of toxins and wastes in the body and see miracles to happen.

Health Tips - Vital Organs - Heart

Structure diagram of the human heart from an anterior view. Blue components indicate de-oxygenated blood pathways (Venous Blood)  and red components indicate oxygenated pathways (Arterial Blood) .

HEART is the most dependable and sturdiest organ in our body.Heart disease is Public Enemy No.1 which can be captured by strong will power. Our Heart wants us to Live up to at least One Hundred Years. Listen its calm and quiet inner voice and co-operate with it .It requires Vitamins especially B Vitamins and more particularly Vitamin B1 or thiamine. Thiamine deficient person quickly becomes aware of palpitation or conscious of heart beats. While Vitamin D is essential for absorption of Calcium, Calcium is necessary for relaxing the muscle tissues during heart beat.

Vitamin E is intake is also good for heart as shortness of breath and chest pain disappear after massive doses of Vitamin E for 2-3 days. 100 mg per day of Vitamin E for indefinite period are recommended by the researchers. When cholesterol , a hard wax type substance, gets deposited in arteries due to our eating habits and life style the arteries diameter carrying the blood gets reduced resulting into higher Blood Pressure. When arteries get completely plugged the inflow/outflow of the blood gets stopped leading to attack. Under supply of Vitamin B particularly choline, betaine and inositol in the diets appears to be the offending cause of hardening of the arteries as these three B vitamins help the body in using and transporting fat and cholesterol in the body.We shall be discussing whole Vitamin B family in the later parts of our articles on Look Younger and Live Longer diet plans to suit every individual Thin or Fat, Diets after Surgery, Bollywood/Hollywood Stars to maintain their figure and glamour.

Ginseng - Wonder Herb - Build Immunity and Stamina

Ginseng Root

Ginseng is a slow growing herb, which consists of a light colored root, a single stalk and long oval green leaves. Ginseng contains complex carbohydrates called saponins or ginsengsines. It possesses anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-cancer elements. 

Ginseng's original name was "man root" since the ginseng root resembles the shape of a human body. Ancient Chinese doctrines state that a plant that resembles a human body part will have a healing effect on that body part. Therefore it is believed ginseng is able to restore harmony to the entire body.

For years, the Chinese have used ginseng as an energy tonic.Today, the western world is exploring its benefits in treating stress and levels of mental lucidity.Asian research has found that ginseng helps mental improvement, eliminates anemia, and helps prevent diabetes, neurosis, coughs, tuberculosis and asthma. It was also found to strengthen the gastrointestinal system and help with liver regeneration. It is even able to reduce the effects of alcohol and decrease hangovers. People taking regular ginseng were found to be able to handle higher levels of stress on both an emotional and physical level.If you are interested in trying ginseng, the best supplements to buy are those which have not been subjected to excessive processing, thereby rendering them ineffective. Also, make sure you purchase authentic ginseng products since wide variations in quality exist today. It was found 15% of ginseng  products contained no ginseng when tested.

Biological E.Limited

Your best guarantee of quality would be to purchase the whole root.In India almost all leading Pharmaceutical Companies are blending Ginseng in their Food Supplements e.g. Revital by Ranbaxy .My experience says that Ginseng preparations in Capsule form by the manufacturers are marked with expiry date which is more that the preservation time .The author has tested the formulation in Capsule Form ,which at normal room                                  temperature and in rainy season (humid conditions), is spoiled by worms as worms infest any root of a plant.It is my opinion that 


drinks made from Ginseng Raw Root Extracts can yield the results claimed by the manufacturers.In India,as per literature about Ginseng sent to me by by Biological E.Limited, in 1980 , Ginseng was brought to India by them and the company had claimed that Indira Gandhi, the late Prime Minister of India and a world leader regularly used the Ginseng Extracts. Ginseng builds strong stamina and that is why the Chinese and Koreans take away Olympic Medals - as per literature of the above company supplied to me in 1980. It is said that in ancient times the Kings used the extract of Ginseng and its was sold @ its weight in grams = weight of gold in grams. But now due to commercial production now it is available everywhere .Natural Form of any herbal supplement is the best.  

Although it is best known and successful at boosting the immune system, improving mental function, and enhancing the ability to deal with stress, there are still studies being done to determine what other areas ginseng can be beneficial.

There are different kinds of ginseng that cure certain medical problems. Some of the ginsengs have anti-cancer effects in the body. The most common kinds are Chinese ginseng, Korean ginseng, and many more. Each of these has individual features.

Korean Ginseng

Korean Ginseng, or Panax Ginseng, is a brown, gnarled root about the size of a little finger that resembles the shape of the human body. It is sometimes referred to as a "man root" or "root of man." Korean Ginseng grows primarily in South Korea, China, and Japan. It has been used for over 5,000 years and is considered the strongest form of ginseng. Korean Ginseng is used in China as a preventative tonic to stimulate the entire body to overcome stress, fatigue and weakness. It helps the body to adapt to stress and to regenerate and rebuild the sexual centers.

Nutritional Role of Korean Ginseng

Korean Ginseng contains thirteen different ginsenosides. Panaxans help to lower blood sugar, polysaccharides work to enhance the immune system and its antioxidant properties are immune-stimulating to protect the body from illness, disease and stress. Korean Ginseng helps to stimulate production of immune cells called "killer T-cells" that destroy viruses and bacteria. It balances the release of stress hormones by supporting the organs that produce them (the hypothalamus, the pituitary, and adrenal glands). Korean Ginseng helps produce endorphins to make people feel good. Its other benefits work to increase testosterone and sperm count.

Traditional Uses of Korean Ginseng:

For antioxidant properties 

For immune system 

For circulation and cardiovascular system

For blood sugar, cholesterol, and blood pressure

For depression and well-being

For menopause

For male and female reproductive systems

For vision and hearing

For physical and mental energy and performance 

People who are pregnant or taking MAO inhibitor drugs should not use this herb. Korean Ginseng is very stimulating so it should be taken early in the day. High dosages could make some jittery. Check with your doctor before taking if you have high blood pressure. In rare cases, postmenopausal women may experience vaginal bleeding due to its mildly estrogenic effect.

Umbilical cord stem cell banking - Futuristic approach

Stem cells are the body's "master" cells that regenerate and turn into the cells that form all of the tissues, organs, and systems in the human body. The different cell types within the body are all derived from such cells- and hence the name. Stem cells are undifferentiated, "blank" cells that do not yet have a specific function. Characteristically, stem cells have a high capacity for self-renewal.

Stem cells have the unique ability to differentiate into a variety of cells. When a stem cell divides, each new cell has the potential to either remain a stem cell or become another type of cell with a more specialized function - such as a muscle cell, a red blood cell or a nerve cell.

Given the right environment, stem cells can give rise to a number of tissues that constitute the different organs. Also serving as a kind of repair system for the body, stem cells can divide repeatedly and then differentiate and replenish cells within the body. These unique characteristics are the reason why stem cells are considered a breakthrough in regenerative medicine. They have the potential for providing cells and tissues to treat various debilitating, life-threatening diseases.

Stem cells can be derived from various sources such as the bone marrow, embryos obtained by in vitro fertilization, amniotic fluid, umbilical cord blood and menstrual blood.

There are three main types of stem cells, which are usually considered for their potential use in research and medicine. They differ in their ability to self-renew:

TOTIPOTENT:

These stem cells have the potential to become any kind of cell in the body. After an egg is fertilized, it undergoes a series of divisions to become an embryo and later a fetus. The cells that are formed during these first few divisions are totipotent i.e. they can become any cell in the body. Human cells have this capacity only during the first few divisions of a fertilized egg. After 3 - 4 divisions of totipotent cells, these cells will not be able to differentiate into any cell type.

PLURIPOTENT:This type of stem cell has the ability to become almost any kind of cell in the body-except the cells of the placenta or other supporting tissues of the uterus. Pluripotent stem cells result after totipotent stem cells undergo the first few divisions. Embryonic stem cells at the blastocyst stage and fetal stem cells are pluripotent.

Totipotent and Pluripotent cells are essential for the development of an entirely new organism, which is why they are found in the early stages of development.

MULTIPOTENT:These cells can give rise to several other cell types, but those types are limited to mostly cells of the blood, heart, muscle and nerves. These cells function as a repair system for damaged tissue. Adult stem cells are a good example of multipotent stem cells.
