Controlling Diabetes
DIABETES CONTROL ============================ WHAT IS DIABETES? WHY DO WE NEED TO SLASH DOWN OUR SUGAR INTAKE? Diabetics are hook to a medical condition known as diabetes which forces a person to have to give up sugars. According to the studies, there are already millions of individual that are diabetics and might exceed to 350 million by year 2030 which sounds alarming, doesn't it. As we all know, millions of people all over the world have tried to let go of their mouth-watering and tasty sugar products. Sugar is a natural substance and a basic food carbohydrate that provides us energy or fuel for everyday activity. People don't have any choice but to quit their in-taking of sweets because their health is at risk. TYPES OF DIABETES As a result, diabetes will require maintenance and permanent medication. If you gestational diabetes, you may also need to take medicine to control your blood sugar level. At this point, insulin therapy is necessary to maintain normal or near normal glucose levels. So be extra careful with your favorite food, though sugar is taste good, but too much of it will make us sick. Either of the 3 types of diabetes, if not properly treated and medicated and if not being implemented regularly may lead to heart attack, eye problems, nerve damage, gum disease, kidney problems and more. The term "type 1 diabetes" has universally replaced several former terms, including childhood-onset diabetes, juvenile diabetes, and insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. DIABETES TREATMENT Take maintenance medicine if necessary even when you feel good and get a routine check up to avoid problems. Educate yourself on how to care for your diabetes which will help you feel better today and in future. Quit your smoking and your excessive intake of alcohol. In no time you will be able to continuously enjoy life without the worries of your diabetes. ALTERNATIVE DIABETES CURES THROUGH THE HERBAL WAY When saying herbal, means to treat with components that are made from plant extracts. You have to be well aware of the foods you eat and enjoy outdoor physical activities which will strengthen your immune system and will result in you managing your diabetes condition better. Diabetes is a disease or illness that affects the metabolism of our body. When we digest our food, it is converted into a form of sugar for our body or what we may call as glucose. Since bitter melons are considered to have twice the potassium compared to bananas at the same time increase the amount of beta cells, these melons may help the pancreas to produce insulin. Failing to include physical activities into our schedule, is why most people have severe health problems or will soon have health related problems in the future. As we all know, it is still true that prevention is better than cure. ===========================================================

How to Manage Diabetes???
Diabetes is a disease that is being seen in a large number of populations today. My father-in-law is a diabetic, I knew that. A few days back I got to know that my aunt got a check up done and her blood glucose levels were too high and she is a diabetic now. She feels tired and nauseous all day which is a pain to watch. My father-in-law also feels tired when his sugar levels go high. Today, my mother-in-law and I went to the market and we met one of her friends there. She asked aunty why she has been out of touch and she told us that she was not well and after check-ups it was found that she was suffering from diabetes.
Today when I went to the doctor for my mother-in-law’s eye check-up, we found out that her number of spectacle has been increasing very fast. We asked the doctor why it was happening. He explained that this happens only when you have high blood pressure and also if you are a diabetic. We came home. We have a device at home that checks your sugar and we checked hers. Thankfully she is ok and not suffering from diabetes. Now tomorrow we will go for her blood pressure check-up. In the past few days I had been hearing a lot of diabetes cases and that made me write something about it.
I am not a doctor and do not know too much of medical science but with my experience at home, I want to share a few things:
1. Buy a machine that will help you check blood glucose every day. That ways you would know when you need to keep a check on your diet.
2. Avoid potatoes and rice.
3. No sugar. Sugar-free items aren’t good, if you think you can replace normal sugar by that. Just remember, you will not take sugar in any form.
4. Keep a check on physical exertion. But do take a walk in the morning or evening to keep fit.
5. Follow the diet chart that your doctor has advised and stick to it.
6. Take your medicines as and when told by your doctor. Do not be careless.
7. Smoking is not good for people suffering from diabetes.
8. When blood glucose rises, swelling can be seen on your body. So, take care if you see any kind of swelling or any other symptoms.
Take care of these small things and have a healthy life!

Health Fitness and Nutrition
Health Fitness and Nutrition
The health and fitness industry has exploded in popularity in the recent years. Promises of turning the average human into resembling a Greek god overnight or the magic pill that melts off lawyers of unwanted fat is, just a few of the lies that are released upon the public. Getting a healthier and fitter body is going to take dedication and some hard work to get the results desired. In this article I will give some advice on the proper exercises to do and touch on the proper diet that should be consumed.
Resistance is going to be a major factor in transforming the shape of the human body. Lifting weights or performing bodyweight exercise will both produce excellent resistance, that will build rock solid muscle mass. If you choose to lift weights for your resistance-building regime, make sure you are comfortable with whatever weight you may choose. Working with a weight that is too big of a load, will allow improper form and injury to become a major factor. Trust me, the last thing you want is to be sidelined, because you were using a weight that you weren’t conditioned for. It is important as you lift the weight or perform bodyweight exercises, to always have the proper form and the movement should be controlled and steady. After the first session of a workout program, your body the next day will be sore and likely hurt badly. No need to worry, because this is how your body should feel after an intense muscle building workout program. Regardless of which path you choose, adding resistance will make you lifestyle a lot more healthier than it was prior to not doing it.
Cardio is often overlooked, however it is a very important in order to achieve a healthier and fit lifestyle. There are many ways cardio can be done such as, jogging, running, walking, jumping rope, riding a bike, and the list could go on and on. While starting a new cardio program, I would at first shoot for about 15 or 20 minutes of cardio every other day and 35 or 40 minutes should be your goal to try and reach. By incorporating cardio into your workout program, you will notice rather quickly the pounds start to fly off and people will start commenting on your brand new look. Cardio is a pretty tough exercise to stick with, because of how intense it can be. For beginners your lungs will be working overtime to try and pump enough oxygen into your working body. This is not a desired feeling for most humans, but stick with cardio and you soon will look forward to every cardio session.
The most underestimated aspect of getting a healthier body is, the diet plan that most of have become accustom to over the years. Cutting out the unhealthy sweets and other fatty snacks at first is, going to seem like an impossible mission. Overtime it will become a lot easier to say no to these unhealthy foods. Add more fruit and veggies to your diet and eat as lean as meats as possible. Wonderful lean meats are fish, skinless chicken breast, venison or other wild game meats you have access to, turkey breast, and egg whites. Avoid eating at fast food places as much as you possibly can. Making your own healthier lunch will be much more satisfying in the long run. Eating wheat flour instead of white flour is, another great tip you may want to use.

Superfoods That Promote Good Health
Superfoods That Promote Good Health
Superfoods are foods which have a high concentration of vitamins and minerals to boost the immune system as well as help the entire body. Superfoods are also among the cheapest foods at the grocery store. These foods work best when they are combined. For example, a food that is high in Vitamin A should be combined with foods which are high in the B-complex vitamins, calcium, and anti-oxidants. Anti-oxidants are nutrients which help the body to shed pre-cancerous cells and fight illness.
So what are these cheap superfoods that promote good health? The least expensive are dried beans such as navy beans. Beans are versatile and can be used in different recipes such as baked beans, navy bean soup, and bean paste for tacos. The way to greatly reduce the amount of gas these beans cause is to soak them overnight and then discard the water. The ingredient in the beans which causes the gas leaches into the water during soaking.
Berries are among the superfoods high in anti-oxidants with blueberries at the top of the list. Blueberries offer good nutrition whether they are eaten raw or cooked, so go ahead and have that slice of blueberry pie. Raspberries, blackberries, and elderberries are also high in anti-oxidants.
Dark green leafy vegetables such as cabbage, brussel sprouts, and spinach help to promote good health by providing a variety of nutrients. They feed the brain and help memory, as much as they feed the body with calcium and an assortment of vitamins. Calcium plays an important role in helping the body to maintain proper weight. Protein plays an important role in helping the body to not feel hunger pangs and overeat.
Vegetable broth made from the skins of vegetables is a superfood that is packed with nutrients to promote good health. The broth takes only 15 minutes to cook and its ingredients usually include the skins of potatoes, yellow onions, carrots, and a whole tomato. It is then strained and ready to use. The reason that this particular vegetable broth is so nutritious is because root vegetables (potatoes, yellow onions, and carrots) have most of their nutrients in the skin. Simmering the skins will leach the nutrients into the broth. The acidic nature of the tomato will help with the process and it will also add flavor.
There are several fruits and vegetables in the superfood category. Some of the fruits which promote good health are citrus (oranges and grapefruit), apples, black grapes, bananas, and berries. Some of the vegetables which have not already been mentioned are eggplant, beets, broccoli, and garlic.
The health benefits from all of these superfoods can only be obtained when they are bought fresh, not processed. This is also the cheapest way to buy them. Include these superfoods in your diet to promote good health.

Berries are among the superfoods high in anti-oxidants with blueberries at the top of the list. Blueberries offer good nutrition whether they are eaten raw or cooked, so go ahead and have that slice of blueberry pie. Raspberries, blackberries, and elderberries are also high in anti-oxidants.
Dark green leafy vegetables such as cabbage, brussel sprouts, and spinach help to promote good health by providing a variety of nutrients. They feed the brain and help memory, as much as they feed the body with calcium and an assortment of vitamins. Calcium plays an important role in helping the body to maintain proper weight. Protein plays an important role in helping the body to not feel hunger pangs and overeat.
Vegetable broth made from the skins of vegetables is a superfood that is packed with nutrients to promote good health. The broth takes only 15 minutes to cook and its ingredients usually include the skins of potatoes, yellow onions, carrots, and a whole tomato. It is then strained and ready to use. The reason that this particular vegetable broth is so nutritious is because root vegetables (potatoes, yellow onions, and carrots) have most of their nutrients in the skin. Simmering the skins will leach the nutrients into the broth. The acidic nature of the tomato will help with the process and it will also add flavor.
There are several fruits and vegetables in the superfood category. Some of the fruits which promote good health are citrus (oranges and grapefruit), apples, black grapes, bananas, and berries. Some of the vegetables which have not already been mentioned are eggplant, beets, broccoli, and garlic.
The health benefits from all of these superfoods can only be obtained when they are bought fresh, not processed. This is also the cheapest way to buy them. Include these superfoods in your diet to promote good health.

Healthy cooking tips
Healthy cooking tips
There are many healthy cooking tips that can be used to make your favorite recipes better for you. Sometimes it is not necessarily what you are eating that is bad for you, but instead the problem lies in the way it is being prepared. Taking the time to learn about healthier alternatives and substitutes will pay itself off after you start feeling better and losing weight. Many of the tips are quite simple and do not require that you have to do a lot of thinking or learn a lot of facts like a scientist would have to. Simply knowing where the problems are suffices and this will help you to find targeted solutions and this will lead to you being able to cook healthy for yourself and your family.
What do I do wrong?
People make many mistakes, starting from the purchases made in the grocery store. It is sometimes difficult to make the right choice, because there are so many versions available of each item. Meat is a great example of where a bad choice can be made. If you want ground beef, which is not necessarily bad for you, then you of course go to the meat department of the supermarket. Once there you will see different packages, types and at different prices. Many just take the cheapest or what looks best, but this is where the mistake is being made. There are labels on every package of chopped beef and you should take the time to read it before putting something in your shopping cart. All chopped meats, regardless of whether it is beef, turkey or some other kind, are made from different parts of the animal. Whereas some chopped meats have a very high fatty content, others are from extremely lean cuts of meat and have almost no fat at all. One of the top healthy cooking tips is to watch the fat content and this means only purchase the lean versions of chopped meat or any other kind of meat for that matter. It may be more expensive, but saving a couple of dollars is not worth ruining your health. To solve the monetary problem, purchase wholesale and freeze up portions or wait until a local supermarket has the meat you want on sale and then go purchase a lot of packages and freeze the extra ones. If you like chicken meat, then purchase cuts without the skin.
Another major mistake made that prevents you from maintaining a healthy diet is that people cook their foods in the wrong oils or in ways that results in a substantial loss of vitamins and minerals. Cooking with excessive oil is one of the worst things that can be done. Even the leanest of meats will become greasy, health ruining bombs that only add to your weight on top of it all. Oil is necessary in small amounts for certain things, like pastry, but there is no reason to cook in a pan full of it still. There are electric grills which can cook meats, pancakes and many other items and these grills not only are quick, small and very practical, but they also are designed so that any fats from meats drip off. If you do not have the room or desire to invest in a grill, then at least use spray on grease or brush some oil onto a pan instead of pouring a lot into it. Steaming and baking are also intelligent alternatives to cooking in a lake of oil. Adding too much salt is also one of the actions that can turn and otherwise healthy food into an unhealthy one. All healthy cooking tips will say that salt is not that necessary and it not only has been linked to things like heart disease, but it enables your body to retain fluids and this makes you feel heavy and you do indeed put on the pounds.
There are many ways to eat healthier
learning to cook in a healthy manner is not impossible to do and for the most part there are only a few major mistakes. There are, however, many smaller mistakes that can still ruin the healthiest of dishes. Salting up foods is one of them, but also using too many other items for flavor is not good. By cutting down on the soy sauce and pre-made tomato or cheese sauces since these not only are full of salt, but also preservatives and calories. Mayonnaise is another very unhealthy, but often used, ingredient for many foods. If you absolutely have to use mayonnaise, then at least choose the reduced fat or fat free versions. Instead of salt or sauces, add more natural flavorings that are also very good for your health like olive oil, vinegar, lemon or lime juice or fresh herbs and spices. Other healthy cooking tips actual recommend that some foods be replaced, such as substituting some meat based meals with a fish dish. Another tip is to exchange the canned vegetables for frozen ones. This is because the canned vegetables have been processed in a manner that reduces the amount of vitamins and minerals and they are also so long lasting because of the high salt content of the water. Another healthy cooking tip is to prepare vegetables in a different way than you are probably accustomed to. With fruits and vegetables it is the skin or the layer immediately below it where all the valuable nutrients are found and for this reason you should not peel too much off. In fact, it is best to only scrub down and avoid peeling altogether. You should also not boil your veggies. Steaming or microwaving is healthier and quicker methods.
There are many healthy cooking tips which are simple to perform and not only make your cooking preparations easier, but also much healthier. There is no point in choosing good foods if you cook them in bad oils and saving money on the types of food is not worth what you later will have to pay on medical costs. There are many advantages to making the most out of these healthy cooking tips and foremost is a better overall health and regaining a normal weight.

White Patches on the Skin: What Causes Them?
White Patches on the Skin: What Causes Them?
White patches on the skin are a relatively common medical problem that can come from a variety of causes ranging from fungal infection to vitamin deficiencies. If you’re experiencing this problem, it’s best to see a doctor for a definitive diagnosis, but here are some of the most common causes of this rather frustrating symptom.
White Patches on the Skin Caused by Skin Conditions
Two of the most common skin conditions that cause white patches on the skin are psoriasis and eczema. With psoriasis, the patches are usually red in color, but they may be covered with a layer of silvery scales that causes them to appear white in color. Usually, people who with psoriasis have a prior history of psoriasis outbreaks or have a strong family history. Eczema, on the other hand, can happen to anyone although it’s more common in people with allergies or asthma. Eczema usually causes an itchy, scaly rash that may undergo color changes to form white patches on the skin. At times, it can be hard to distinguish psoriasis from eczema.
White Patches on the Skin Due to Fungal Infection
Another condition that can cause white patches on the skin is tinea versicolor – a skin condition caused by a fungus. The white patches of tinea versicolor are usually found on the chest or back and appear more pronounced with a suntan. If your skin isn’t tanned, the patches may be pink or light brown in color. The fungus that causes tinea versicolor normally lives on the skin without causing problems, but certain factors such as excessive sweating, hormonal changes, and decreased immunity can cause the fungus to proliferate and cause skin changes. It’s usually treated with topical or oral anti-fungal medications.
White Patches on the Skin Due to Depigmentation
White patches on the skin can also come from vitiligo – a condition where the skin loses its pigment in certain areas leading to patchy areas of white. No one knows what causes this condition, although it’s thought to be autoimmune. Unfortunately, there’s no cure for vitiligo, but there are treatments that can improve its appearance – although treatment is expensive and it can take a while to see results.
A Vitamin Deficiency That Can Cause White Patches
B12 deficiency can also cause white patches on the skin. B12 deficiency is most common in people with pernicious anemia, but it can also occur in long-term vegans. B12 deficiency can have serious neurological consequences, so it’s smart to get a level checked if you notice white spots or patches or have any unexplained neurological symptoms.
Keep these conditions in mind, but see your doctor for a definitive diagnosis.

How to Do a Patch Test to Check for Skin Allergies
How to Do a Patch Test to Check for Skin Allergies
Have you ever used a skin care product and developed an itchy rash? Chances are you were allergic to some ingredient in that product. You could have prevented this problem, if you had done a patch test before using it. A patch test is a way to determine if you're allergic to a product before you put it on a large area of skin. It's a particularly good practice to do a patch test before using a hair dye on the scalp since so many people have reactions to this type of product. Here's how to do a patch test to check for allergies.
To do a patch test, pour a small amount of the product in question onto a plate or small bowl.
Use q-tip to apply a small amount of the product on an inconspicuous area of the forearm. Along the inside of the wrist is a good spot to use for a patch test.
Leave the area untouched for forty-eight hours. Avoid exposing it to water when you take a bath and keep it out of direct sunlight.
At the end of forty-eight hours, check the area for signs that could indicate an allergic reaction to the product. If you're allergic to the product, you'll see redness, flaking, or a skin rash in the area where the product was applied. In addition, you may experience itching, irritation, or soreness. Generally, if any changes occur where the product was placed, the patch test is positive.
If a skin patch test is positive, avoid using that particular product in the future. If you use it, you could experience a serious allergic reaction. If you don't experience any skin changes, itching, or irritation at the site of the patch test, you can probably safely use the product.
Make it a practice to do a patch test before using any new product. Skin allergic reactions can be very uncomfortable and take a while to go away. Why take the chance of putting something on your skin you could be allergic to? Play it safe and do a patch test.
Have you ever used a skin care product and developed an itchy rash? Chances are you were allergic to some ingredient in that product. You could have prevented this problem, if you had done a patch test before using it. A patch test is a way to determine if you're allergic to a product before you put it on a large area of skin. It's a particularly good practice to do a patch test before using a hair dye on the scalp since so many people have reactions to this type of product. Here's how to do a patch test to check for allergies.
To do a patch test, pour a small amount of the product in question onto a plate or small bowl.

How Omega-3's May Help Breast Cancer Sufferers
How Omega-3's May Help Breast Cancer Sufferers
The omega-3 fatty acids found in fatty fish and fish oil supplements have an impressive list of possible health benefits. Not only do they lower the risk of heart disease, but they may prevent certain types of cancer – possibly due to their anti-inflammatory properties. One type of omega-3 called DHA may even be of benefit for women undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer.
Omega-3’s and Chemotherapy of Breast Cancer
According to a study published in the British Journal of Cancer, women who took a daily dose of DHA, an omega-3 found in fish oil, increased their breast cancer survival rate while undergoing breast cancer chemotherapy treatment. A group of twenty-five women with metastatic breast cancer were given 1.8 grams of the omega-3 DHA for two months to eight years in addition to their regular breast cancer chemotherapy treatment. The women continued to receive their regular chemotherapy for breast cancer while taking the DHA supplement.
DHA and Breast Cancer Chemotherapy Treatment
Did DHA affect their survival? The women who took the DHA omega-3 supplement survived an average of 22 months – and some survived significantly longer – despite having a poor prognosis. The women were only expected to survive for a little over a year – despite receiving breast cancer chemotherapy treatment. The breast cancer in most of these women had already metastized to the liver which carries with it a bad prognosis.
This study looking at DHA for women undergoing chemotherapy of breast cancer is small and more research is needed. If these results are supported by future studies, taking omega-3 supplements could be a safe and natural way to prolong survival of breast cancer patients who have cancer that has already spread to other parts of the body. In this study, none of the women experienced adverse side effects from the DHA.
Does DHA Prevent Breast Cancer?
Some studies have looked at the possibility that omega-3’s or a diet rich in fatty fish containing these fatty acids might lower breast cancer risk. While some of these studies have suggested a protective effect, the results have been mixed – so it’s too early to say.
How Does DHA Work?
Omega-3 fatty acids such as DHA have an anti-inflammatory effect alter the production of certain types of hormone-like compounds which may play a role in the growth of breast tumors. One animal study showed that DHA makes chemotherapy for prostate cancer more effective.
DHA for Chemotherapy of Breast Cancer: The Bottom Line
More research is needed to determine if DHA is beneficial for women undergoing breast cancer chemotherapy treatment; but this relatively low dose of DHA appears to be safe for most women and doesn’t cause serious side effects. Always talk to your doctor before taking a DHA or a fish oil supplement – particularly if you’re undergoing chemotherapy.

GO AHEAD,EAT THAT
GO AHEAD,EAT THAT
Don’t fret over how much you should eat, exercise or sleep. Most of us live healthier lives than we think
Have you had your five to nine servings of vegetables today? Exercised for an hour? Cut back on saturated fat and gotten eight hours of sleep?
Dictating the rules for healthful living has become a cottage industry, with websites, talk shows and books devoted to the dos and don’ts of staying healthy.
But when it comes to achieving these goals, many of us feel we are falling far short. Whether you’re a busy parent who can’t find time for exercise, a chronic dieter struggling to lose 20 pounds or a multi-tasker who gets by on six hours of sleep, it is virtually impossible to follow the rules.
Now, Dr Susan M. Love, one of the most respected women’s health specialists in the US, offers a new rule: stop worrying about your health.
In her new book, Live a Little! Breaking the Rules Won’t Break Your Health, Dr Love makes the case that perfect health is a myth and that most of us are living far more healthful lives than we realise.
Dr Love, a clinical professor of surgery at the David Geffen School of Medicine at the University of California, Los Angeles, says that failing to live by the various health rules is a major source of stress and guilt, particularly for women. For most of us, “pretty healthy” is healthy enough.
