High temperatures in California and inconvenience

An alert for the heat was branched by the meteorological service to Arizona, Nevada; Then in California over twenty-nine million residents are subject to heat waves and some complain about the uncomfortable situation with burning sensation on the skin and full scale thermometers that report abnormal temperatures (probably for the formation of unhealthy islands of heat). In the capital of Arizona Phoenix were reached almost forty Celsius degrees and for extreme temperatures over fifty air flights were cancelled for operational difficulties. To be reported changing topic but remaining on issues that concern the well-being and inconvenience that in Italy an anticyclone of African origin is raising the columns of mercury on soils already withered by the long absence of precipitation, quantifiable in a third less in six months, with emergency in particular for the crops of Emilia, Toscana and Veneto.

Proper skin protection from the sun

When we expose yourself directly to the sun rays it is advisable to protect the skin from sunburn and some experts of the sector indicate for example when choose a bottle of milk-cream sunscreen to orient itself on a protection factor of thirty or more, with protection against UVB and UVA rays to broad-spectrum, which is hypoallergenic and does not irritate the skin, with a minimum of perfume or not perfumed and which allows a correct perspiration; then with regard to small children it is better to avoid any type of sun exposure. The choice is not easy and also the so-called "organic solar filters" even if they do not contain chemical components have always titanium and zinc oxide to be able to carry out their own action and those that indicate that they are water-resistant do not always actually guarantee this prerogative, however it is beter to repeat often the product applications.

Very polluting tobacco industry

The tobacco production chain has a high ecological footprint due to the extensive use of chemical agents, consumption of energy and water resources, pollution for the production and manufacture of cigarettes with serious consequences on the environment without considering the negative impact on global health quantifiable in seven million victims each year. The cultivation of tobacco plants requires large quantities of various pesticides harmful both to the environment and to the farmers so much that many of these chemicals are banned in some countries, then for the treatment of tobacco leaves it burns a lot of lumber contributing in this way to deforestation and China and Zimbabwe also use coal that emits carbon dioxide the main greenhouse gas. Every year millions of kilogram of cigarette butts are thrown, which are not biodegradable and contain thousands of harmful chemical components.

Improving sleep of young people with cystic fibrosis

A study carried out in Australia to monitor sleep quality and related habits regarding the time when they went to sleep of eighty-seven young patients with cystic fibrosis, comparing them with fifty-five healthy participants would have shown less sleep duration; in fact although the time spent in bed was greater the number of awakenings during the night was greater with inevitable consequences on the yields in the activities during the day since the young people have declared a decline in the attention feeling tired and grumpy. to try to improve sleep quality in patients with cystic fibrosis (for example with a low-fat diet, rich in vitamins and respiratory exercises) can improve lung function, considering also that for cause of the fibrosis and therefore a greater viscosity of glandular secretions can form inflammatory outbreaks in the lungs.

Rethinking man's relationship with plastic

Many utility objects are designed to last practically forever even if the duration of their actual use extends for a short period of time, for example a plastic toothbrush does not degrade in the environment and it would be more appropriate that it was manufactured with eco-friendly material since if it is not recycled properly it is destined to end up at sea. This consideration was made after observing the impressive amount of plastic waste that accumulated on the beaches of a small uninhabited island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean (Henderson Island, ten for five kilometers, halfway between New Zealand and Chile) that with thirty million and seven hundred pieces of plastic brought by the current South Pacific Gyre would have the highest density of documented plastic residues. The researchers also cleaned up part of a beach estimating that thirteen thousand pieces of plastic a day reach the island.

Reassuring statements on Chernobyl

With a speech that stressed the importance of protecting humanity from nuclear threat the authorities of Ukraine thanked the international supporters that with a large sum financed the construction of a new sarcophagus, designed to ensure at least a century of security, which will be implemented by the year above the reactor number four exploded thirty-one years ago, for what is considered the worst nuclear disaster happened in history in this first generation plant located one hundred and ten kilometres north from the capital Kiev. The new large metal arc-shaped cover (high one hundred and ten meters, two hundred and fifty-seven wide, one hundred sixty-four length) will block the radiation escaping from the old sarcophagus very deteriorated and was erected in November 2016 with four years of work at the side of the central on railway in order to slide it into position.

Smoking decrease but increase the victims

Although the percentage of smokers has decreased over the past twenty-five years, with a global trend quite bumpy depending on the country, that of the victims increases with more than six million and four hundred thousand cases, according to data provided by researchers in a new survey half of them occurs in only four countries: China, India, U.S. and Russia. Anti-tobacco strategies with images of diseased organs that cover much of the package as well as phrases that warn of the danger of cigarette smoking in general seem to work; indeed in Russia where only came into effect in 2014 there was an increase of four percent in the percentage of women smokers. The increase in world population allows companies that produce cigarettes with aggressive campaigns to find always new customers and it is estimated for example a fifty percent more smokers for 2025 in large parts of Africa.

Still problems in rare cases for breast implants

After the affair of bad French silicone gel breast implants happened five years ago now the case noted in nine women death communicated by an American Health Organization confirms the results of a study carried out previously by a possible link in a few cases between breast implants and a rare type of malignant lymphoma affecting a capsule of tissue that develops around the implant. It's not breast cancer and to prevent the progresses of the disease typically rather slowly just surgically remove promptly the aesthetic implant. On average this unhealthy situation occurs eight years after the application of the implant and in most cases it was realized that formed a tumor arising from the alleged pain of women in the area around the prosthesis, then it seems that textured implants are more likely than those with smooth surface although are always few cases.

Factors affecting the life expectancy

Analyzing women's conditions of life in South Korea where is achieved a record of longevity with an average of approximately ninety years a study had identified as this Asian country of fifty million inhabitants has managed to maintain (together with the nearby Japan) a low percentage of obese people and women who smoked, then in general the social and economic status of the population has gradually improved and managed to ensure good nutrition and early childhood easy access to health care equipped with modern medical equipment. A deciding factor seems to be also have a unique health care system and well organized to adopt strategies aimed at reducing the mortality rate in adults. Other studies focus on the importance of reducing pollution, improve the hygiene and ensure good conditions of social life since that also the murders are among the factors that influence the life expectancy.

When thin particulate levels increase up making the air unbreathable and detrimental to the health is trying to locate what are the causes and sources of pollution as is happening in Italy at Como where the units record values definitely out with about two hundred and twenty parts per million particulate matter also because of the long absence of significant precipitation (in all the North) that could clean up the air whereas in neighbouring Switzerland grappled with the same problem already have to take restrictive measures such as reduced speed on the highway, lower temperatures in buildings, regulated traffic with free tickets for buses and trains. Shifting attention to Mongolia in the world's most polluted capital Ulaanbaatar the situation is becoming untenable because for the cold the nomads in yurts in addition to coal burning also plastic and old tires.

Prolonged use of pain relievers and hearing loss

The quality of life could be considerably lower because of a rather frequent disturbance like hearing loss and a study by American researchers on nearly fifty-six thousand women in the country would have found a link between prolonged use for six years or longer periods of common pain relievers such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medicines (whose active ingredient is based for example on naproxen, ibuprofen, acetaminophen) and increased risk in small percentage of hearing problems; while he had previously been found also that of hypertension. When used for short periods of time there should be no problem, then it should be noted that the best way to protect the hearing is to avoid excessive noise; also, instead of taking pain relievers could make targeted physical exercise and appropriate physical therapy to get improvements in general.

Skin color tied to genes of Neanderthals

Only a little more than one percent of our entire genome derived from hybridization with the Neanderthals occurred between sixty and seventy thousand years ago, but since it was identified that DNA can be connected for example to the instructions that determine the skin color comes from a seventy percent by genes of Neanderthal according to researchers before telling someone who's a caveman's is better look in the mirror. The assumptions in this regard are varied; in fact some argue that the hybridization with Neanderthal happened when humans migrated from Africa about fifty thousand years ago others say that our genome is formed with different hybridizations have occurred at different times not only with Neanderthals, but also with Denisova. Populations that are not migrated from Africa shows few hybridization, while Asian populations would for some genes more hybridization rates compared to the European.

Smoking few cigarettes is equally harmful

Those who think to limit the negative effects of smoking on health by smoking a cigarette sometimes then actually gets poor results, at least from what emerges from a study performed in America who would take from data over two hundred and ninety thousand adults as people who smoke on average of less than one cigarette a day would have eight times the likelihood of death from lung cancer than non-smokers, then if is smoke between one and ten cigarettes a day the risk increases by twelve times. Other studies show that smokers not only have higher risk of lung cancer, but also to the mouth, throat, vocal cords, esophageal, stomach, kidneys, pancreas, liver, bladder, colon, and then for a type of blood cancer called myeloid leukemia; so is better quit smoking, however it seems that some progress has been made with desensitization campaigns to smoking.

At this time there is an ongoing conference in Cancun about environmental sustainability and how to try to adopt for example the lifestyle of indigenous peoples considered as environmentally friendly given the propensity to protect forests, the streams without damaging extractive activities and with a kind of culture that promotes solidarity with community tourism and handicrafts. If everyone were to adopt this lifestyle could combat the climate change.

Yet discussions about diesel vehicles

After being accused of being carcinogens, with various controversies about the low emissions of new models, diesel vehicles still suffer from a setback; in fact four of the largest and most polluted cities in the world (Paris, Mexico City, Madrid and Athens) decided in a convention to establish by 2025 a ban on diesel cars and trucks. Some argue that the affair linked to a large German car industry with rigged data has given the coup de grace to diesel engines, known for robustness and low consumption, but with issues emissions of Nitrogen oxide that can promote the formation of ozone at street level and therefore cause difficulty breathing in some subjects and then thin particulates can cause tumors and DNA damage. Seven million people lose their lives every year, according to international organizations, due to exposure to polluted air.

While international health organizations declared the emergency by Zika virus as over even if still needs an intense action fresh inquiries made over thirty children born in Brazil with a normal head circumference were subsequently diagnosed a congenital syndrome by Zika virus; then proceeding with the scanning of the brain were highlighted extensive malformations, inflammation and reduced volume. Eleven babies gradually in the months following the birth have shown a reduced cranial capacity, defect known as microcephaly, so this discovery opens the scenario about new concerns about prenatal exposure to infection by Zika virus whereas other anomalies have also been reported in some children such as epilepsy, some degree of irritability, hypertonia with defects of muscles control or not moved voluntarily the hands.

For some these guidelines are important and in line with the progress made to reduce emissions with the Paris agreements, while others more critics argue that the initiatives that had already been adopted in the past have brought the planet to a critical point and not have served to safeguard the environment, the biodiversity, to regulate the exploitation of land and the fertilizer use.

Meanwhile international organizations warn that the higher the chances of spreading of the virus Zika in Western Pacific Regions with uncertainties on the measures to be taken to cope with the situation, then with regard to the action plan adopted also to control Dengue and Chikungunya in these countries do not seem to have achieved the desired results. To note that in the Philippines were reported two new infections of Zika bringing the total number to seventeen.

A curiosity of the purifier is one that particulate matter is not end up to waste but collapsed to become some sort of precious stones to use for example in an artistic way to adorn rings and cufflinks, allowing at the same time that does not end up in the lungs of citizens thus avoiding serious damage to the health of the population.

It is estimated that each year there are three million victims because of pollution of the air although this figure goes back to the most recent surveys available that are of 2012; moreover the data collected this time in May this year shows that ninety-eight percent of the inhabitants of big cities breathe air too polluted. Other concern then derives from overheating with yet another hot record for the August month.

Selling toxic diesel and gasoline at pump of low quality standard will increase air pollution by favouring respiratory diseases and reducing the life expectancy of the population; moreover decreasing sulphur limits would not impact on the price at the pump without considering the lower medical costs and maintenance less onerous for vehicles over long distances.

Maybe the purification with chlorine was not effective enough or there was a proliferation of algae due to the intense lighting.

Young children and teenagers have not yet completely developed the airways and of lesser caliber than adults so an increased presence of mucus and inflammation may block badly, without considering that menthol products aren't really decongestants as meaning that they provide only the feeling of breath a little better.

Using a polymer based on silicon and oxygen molecules to form a kind of invisible and elastic film to be applied on the skin American researchers would be able to mimic the typical characteristics of a young skin; useful for now for cosmetic use to hide wrinkles and bags under the eyes, but with further developments also to administer medication and protect the skin from the sun rays. For example, instead of using surgery to remove the unsightly bags under the eyes, always exposing themselves to the risks associated with this type of cosmetic procedures, may use this film to resolve the problem (after the polymer will have exceeded to the health safety standards). With advancing years the skin becomes less elastic and firm, filled with wrinkles; then applying this film will bring youth with a smoother appearance.

Better to stop smoking abruptly with decision

Although most people prefer to quit smoking gradually apparently is best to stop abruptly decisively from one day to the next, at least according to a study made in England that also recommends to stick a date in the calendar convenient to permanently get rid of the expensive and unhealthy habit, not move it for any reason sticking some kind of rule of prohibition to drag on at later dates and get appropriately support. The test has been carried out on almost seven hundred volunteers divided into two groups, one in which participants had to quit smoking gradually and one suddenly, then after six months has been proceeded to verify that the fifteen and a half per cent of the first group did not start smoking again against twenty-two percent of the second. The participants were able to take advantage of the classic nicotine replacements like patches, gum and spray to be sprayed in the mouth.

Multiple sclerosis and vitamin D deficiency

A study carried out by testing laboratory data tracked in Finland about women serum samples taken during the first three months of pregnancy would have shown a correlation between vitamin D deficiency and multiple sclerosis; in fact, the researchers compared the cases of one hundred seventy-six patients with three hundred twenty-six control participants finding an higher risk than ninety percent of multiple sclerosis in children whose mothers had been found a vitamin D deficiency during pregnancy compared with mothers where levels were inadequate. International organizations estimate that about two and half million people in the world suffer from this serious disease that affects the central nervous system and previous studies showed how important it was for pregnant women a rational and controlled exposure of the skin to sunlight in order to synthesize enough vitamin D naturally.

Identified the gene responsible for grey hair

By analyzing the DNA of over six thousand volunteers of different ethnicity (Europeans, native Americans and Africans) an international team of researchers have identified on chromosome six the gene named "IRF4" that rule as it is distributed in the hair, eyes and skin the melanin pigment; so with genetic manipulation might be possible in the future to prevent the hair from becoming grey due to the loss of melanin. At the root of the hair located in the hair follicles cells called melanocytes produce the pigment that colors the hair but aging these cells maybe for genetic or environmental causes stop producing melanin so that hair turn grey. The researchers also identified a gene would be connected to the thickness of the eyebrows and beard and there is speculation that does not act alone in isolation but that is influenced by a number of factors and various causes.

Discussions and studies about Zika virus

As a result of various debates regarding the correlation between microcephaly in children and causes other than virus Zika international organizations indicated that there would be no evidence that the pyriproxyfen insecticide used to kill mosquito larvae in water containers may be the real culprit; in fact this larvicidal was used beginning in 1990 without being reported cases of microcephaly. The question was raised also due to the fact that in Brazil many drink water stored in large tanks placed around the homes, lack of drinking water forniture, and to avoid the reproduction of mosquitos adding small doses of insecticide that should be almost completely disposed through the urine in about two days. Regarding the studies on virus Zika Chinese researchers announced they would be able to sequence the entire genome, also useful to develop bacteria and reagents for diagnostic purposes.

Precautions against the spread of virus Zika

In countries where the virus Zika is rapidly spreading health authorities warn the population to adopt classical hygienic precautions such as avoiding to use glasses, toothbrushes and manipulate objects of personal use used by others since the virus was found by Brazilian researchers in the saliva and urine of patients with symptoms of the disease (perhaps potentially transmissible by coming into contact with these fluids) and then as always should wash the hands frequently. As regards pregnant women besides these precautions should avoid crowded places, then people who show any symptoms of the disease have more responsibility in case of contact with pregnant women. It is worth noting that in Colombia over twenty five thousand people now would have contracted the virus, then must take precautions to try to avoid the bite of mosquitoes.

The stature affects some healthy parameters

Tall people have a lower risk for cardiovascular disease and type two diabetes, but a greater risk of cancer than lower stature ones; at least according to German researchers who analyzed data from an epidemiological study would have noticed how six centimeters and a half size more means having a lower risk of death from cardiovascular disease by six per cent, but on the contrary increases by a four percent that for cancers. People would be more sensitive to higher insulin action with a lower percentage of fat in the liver and then a relative protection against lipid metabolism disorders, but activation of the system known as IGF 1 and 2 (insulin-like growth factor) and other signalling pathways may be linked to an increased risk for some types of cancers, so researchers should take account of these parameters to better prevention.

Partial reassurances about the Zika virus

Following the announcements on the possible spread of Zika across America (perhaps excluding Canada) and potentially in all those in all the countries where the Aedes mosquito can find a favorable environment to breed is growing in some areas the fear of being bitten by these insects also because then would be the possibility in small percentage of sexually transmitted virus, but apparently there wouldn't be not for the time being a danger comparable to other known virus apart as regards pregnant women for risk of microcephaly in unborn children. This virus was identified in 1947 in Uganda and cause among the various symptoms nausea, irritability, skin rashes, red eyes and joint pain is not so severe enough to require hospital care and the mortality rates are very low. There is no vaccine and the only way to defend is to avoid the bite of Aedes mosquito; the same that carries Dengue and other diseases.

Prevention in Brazil against mosquitoes

New record in 2015 in Brazil with 1.6 million cases of Dengue, viral disease transmitted by the Aedes aegypti mosquito species, with two hundred thousand cases more monitored than in 2013, since the disease is endemic in the country and more than eight hundred and sixty victims with the regions to the Southeast, the most populated areas, on top of this unhealthy standings with over five hundred and sixty victims. Also have many cases of zika and chikungunya fever, this time not potentially lethal and again caused from the byte of the Aedes mosquito, which still preoccupy the authorities since it was discovered that women infected in early pregnancy from zika fever are likely to have infants with microcephaly. Prevention usually is done avoiding the stagnation of water in various containers and with bollards; then some argue that mosquitoes prefer to spawn in reservoirs nearby to flowers.

China struggling with mudslides and smog

Would be over ninety people miss the call after the collapse two weeks ago of a group of dwellings in Hengtaiyu industrial park, in the city of Shenzhen in the southern of China, due to the failure of a big pile of construction debris accumulated over two years that caused a landslide that buried an area of approximately three hundred and eighty square meters by damaging a stretch along four hundred meters of a gas pipeline so that exploded for the hit. Teams of rescuers digging among the ruins with many mechanical excavators under the supervision of a team of geologists that controls the gas leaks, while would be fifteen hundred people evacuated whereas this is not the first time occurring little unhealthy landslides. Continue then the problems with smog after the second red alert declared for Beijing faced with a series of inspections on violations of regulations on pollution.

After three days of smog unbearable for the people the authorities decided to declare for the first time a red alert about air pollution (the highest level) with a series of drastic action to try to lower the particulate matter PM 2.5 that reached in some areas almost one housand micrograms per cubic meter; so factories and schools closed, stop the constructions and works outdoors, alternating plates for cars with increased public transportation, flexible hours of work as well as public warnings of caution. The air from the testimonials is unbreathable what is clear from even wearing mask and uncomfortable situation reaches to miss the forces, although it is not first time the metropolis by twenty-two and a half million inhabitants encounter a situation like that for this city known for the victims and hospitalizations from pollution as well as reduced visibility.

Sleeping eight hours to remember faces and names

Showing photos of twenty faces, from an archive of six hundred color photos that was associated with the corresponding name, at fourteen participants of a study to see if sleeping eight hours increases the percentage of correct recognition of the various faces after a certain period of time, American researchers have found an improvement of twelve percent compared to a control group. While other research had tested as a nap could influence the ability of recognizing faces apparently had not yet been verified as it could affect an entire night's sleep, then this time has been established for participants even a scale of one to nine confidence of the answer to the question of which name corresponds to the faces of the photo shown. With aging therefore sleep disorders and disruptions may cause memory difficulties.

Little wealth and poverty to climate change

Over one hundred million people could fall into poverty by 2030 according to international organizations if don't intervene to secure the territory from the devastation caused by climate change (resulting of the pollutants caused from the human activities). Families that do not have the means to face the new challenges imposed by climate change which make less productive soils and decrease revenues are intended to gradually decrease their level of well-being up to the poverty. This situation is already detectable for example in Uganda where heavy rains fed by cyclic global current "El Nino" forcing the population to live in difficult conditions since the houses are made of mud and water-saturated soil does not allow the normal outflow by dropping the houses; then this situation is unhealthy and the authorities do not have the means to set up shelters.

Strategies against cigarette smoking in China

China is one of the countries most affected by the damage caused to the health from cigarette smoke with nearly a million victims in 2010 related to this malodorous and expensive habit and with calculations that involve a doubling up to two million in 2030 (three million in 2050), and then one in three young people is destined to lose their lives to tobacco smoke cause unless it is shown that a significant proportion of them do not decide to stop. In Beijing was taken some initiative and in June it was decided to ban smoking indoors in public places especially after the invitation of international organizations to establish effective and cost-effective strategies against smoking to avoid in future a large amount of disability and premature deaths. A positive trend is that relating to women; in fact ten percent of those born in 1930 smoked compared to only one percent of those born in 1960.

May lose teeth who smokes too many cigarettes

Smoke hide the negative effects of gum disease and many people underestimate these issues until the situation becomes serious, at least according to a joint study by researchers in England and Germany signed on over twenty-three thousand participant for a long period of time and found that male smokers lose teeth 3.6 times more frequently than those who do not have the habit to light the unhealthy and expensive cigarettes; for women the risk is reduced to 2.6 times. Europeans remain the most hardened smokers (and drinkers) in the world although in general the proportion is gradually reducing and international organizations warn that more efforts should be done to convince people to stop smoking because it reduces the quality and life expectancy, then there are high costs to treat related conditions in health systems with fewer resources.

Air unbreathable for smoking in Indonesia

Air pollution levels are so high in large areas north of Indonesia, including the rich and Singapore attraction, that authorities have declared a State of emergency in particular in the province of Riau in Sumatra with over twenty-five thousand people affected by this unhealthy health issue caused by uncontrolled fires. Visibility is poor and in many cases the population is forced to wear protective masks to protect the respiratory tract; moreover there would be an invitation to limit outdoor activities with schools closed and some flights cancelled. Despite Indonesia being one of the wettest places in the world the vegetation turns out to be rather dry due to anomalous effects of a global atmospheric current called "El Nino", but the real cause is the illegal forest fire in order to clean up the soil and make it suitable for intensive cultivation, then it is difficult or nearly impossible to extinguish the fire.

Diminished well-being from climate change

In Europe the severe drought recorded in the months of June and July would have had a sensitive impact both on the environment that on population, at least from what is clear from the analysis of a dedicated Observatory; in fact there were heat waves of greater intensity compared to other years and longer coupled with scarce rainfall with inevitable consequences for the unhealthy perceived well-being and for the nature, since the land was gradually dried favouring fires and damaging the vegetation. Diminished also the production of hydro power with rivers reduced to rivulets and in some areas complete interruption of water supplies. Shifting attention to other scenarios to indicate the similar situation in Alaska where established a sort of vicious cycle between high temperatures and drought that have led to forest fires so that they have even attracted the attention of the authorities.

Warm climate between storms and refugees

Global temperatures continue to rise with the previous July that broke the previous record of 2014 and previous months are all very hot media results then the 2015 might be remembered as yet another very hot year, but this has consequences not only for the hardships that arise from having to live for example in cities that become hot due to the heat islands by asphalt and concrete but also for the humidity which increases due to intense evaporation favored by warm, resulting in storms and then relative damage. The sealing of the climate and especially the desertification in other areas forcing more people to abandon their lands and with the hottest years this phenomenon will increase also for the rising of seas, then we must consider pollution and soot that lower the levels of well-being.

Sleep well to remember better

Usually say that if can't remember something, maybe important, which escapes from any recovery method from your memory is useless to continue to put stress on the brain (at the risk of depressing confusion) and it is best to try again after a good night's sleep, and apparently this adagio was also shown by British researchers who claim that sleep protects memories from danger that they are forgotten and contributes to a easier to recall in the memory. The test has been carried out to remember in volunteers texts to recall both immediately that after a period of time, for an awake group and sleep for another, noting that rest enables almost to double the chances of remembering correctly the texts stored in a wide variety of contexts and then sleep makes them more clear and accessible for use in daily practice.

We should develop more pleasant lotions and sprays for the user with chemical formulas in addition to being waterproof to protect from UVA rays that have longer wavelength radiation of UVB and not cause sunburn but penetrate deep into the skin and are therefore dangerous to the skin and cause aging. Other problem should not be underestimated is the ecological impact of these chemical molecules dispersed in the water of the sea.

Women suffer chronic pain more frequently than men; moreover would have a different sensitivity to physical pain, at least from what resulted from a study carried out by Canadian and American researchers on mice that should have the basic structures of the nervous system similar to those of man, especially for a basic evolutionary function as pain (.. very controversially). In practice, the pain may be processed from different cells and this means that when it is understood well that mechanism will be able to develop targeted different medicines between males and females whereas a large number of people around the globe takes medicines among treatments for chronic pain and that caused by serious diseases. In studies in the past had already been shown that women were more susceptible to pain likely to hormonal, psychological, and genetic causes.

However if by inherited genes depends on the possibility of being chosen as a target by mosquitoes (in figurate manner the so-called "sweet blood") even the smell of the body remains a deciding factor, then apparently pregnant women and individuals with higher body temperature are more prone to being bitten.

These single-celled organisms belonging to the kingdom of Protists and then placed halfway between animal and plant kingdom occupy so in figured manner a surface two hundred times greater than that of the Earth by adjusting the metabolic cycles. Bactèrion meaning in Greek stick (bacilli) but the shape of these single-celled microorganisms may vary and for example cocchi are rounded, vibrioni are spiral called also spirillum if various wrapped and helically curved.

Air quality is global and not local

Residents of San Joaquin Valley in California suffer from asthma in double percentage compared to other areas of this State due to ozone pollution, considered one of the main components of smog; but the researchers argue that a ten percent of this smog comes from Asia and then the air quality is a parameter that should be evaluated as global and not local; in addition it follows as a consequence to a healthy level that we are all connected and compelled to share substances which are vital for us. It should be noted that previous studies had reported as in globalised markets generalised pollution travels on a large scale with foods, various ingredients, clothing, industrial products or components used to assemble in other areas; then, with aspects which will inevitably fall on the quality of life and healthy conditions more or less severe.

Ebola outbreak one year after the discovery

The situation regarding the outbreak of Ebola in the West of Africa is improved also if a few days ago a new case confirmed in Liberia of a woman after twenty days without had not been monitored no contagion has toppled [09/05 only temporary] the country's hopes of being declared out of danger (must pass forty-two days without any case of infection since the last confirmed case before a country is declared free from the epidemic according to international organizations) and so will need also to investigate those who have had contact with this woman to avoid propagate back the epidemic. One year away from the first cases reported, but some argue that for about two months the outbreak has been hidden so as not to damage the global economy and countries such as Guinea and Sierra Leone would not admit the seriousness of the epidemic, the reported victims would be beyond ten thousand and two hundred-fifty.

Detoxifying treatments and painkillers

In the Tamkrabok monastery in the mountains of Central Thailand Lop buri province which it is claimed only through donations the monks preparing a medicament detoxifying with one hundred plants and apparently more than one hundred thousand patients with various dependencies on drugs from all over the world have been subjected to this treatment with a vomiting plan after taking the herbal potion to cleanse the body. No medication is allowed during the detox treatment that would have proven to be effective in eighty percent of cases, then there are also benefits for the skin, lungs and eyes thanks to herbal tea and steam baths without neglecting the meditation. Regarding painkillers researchers in Australia have found in the venom of spiders peptides with properties superior to those of conventional medicines with fewer side effects.

Meanwhile the number of victims in the West of Africa would be more than nine thousand end seven hundred individuals and nearly twenty-four thousand contagions monitored; moreover, the authorities of the affected countries call for more aid to eradicate the virus and rebuild their shattered economies invited to establish a global plan and although there have been some progress in the fight against the disease will not be able to say that had won until there will be no case of infection.

Smoking tobacco is more harmful than expected

According to a study done in Australia over two hundred thousand individuals for six years, smokers and non-smokers with average age of forty-five years, more than two out of three cigarette smokers lose their lives because of harmful tobacco smoke and not one every two; then the mortality rate is much higher than previously thought even though it depends on how many cigarettes is smoke, with ten doubles the risk and smoking twenty cigarettes a day increases four times. Someone manages to have a long life expectancy even smoking but the quality gets worse because the smoke has several negative issues from the health point of view. By stopping smoking, after ten years the risk of dying from lung cancer halved and that for heart attacks becomes comparable to that of individuals who have never smoked, but according to some might remain long-term DNA and neurological damage.

After finding several times reduced levels of radiation and that the water contamination problems were resolved by the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant operator, the control international engineers of the atomic energy (the organization is based in Vienna) stated that progress has been made in securing the damaged plant although the overall time, quantifiable in thirty-forty years, determined to complete the expensive operation in practice do not change. The situation remains complex despite having been employed by April a new robot to search for the atomic fuel rods in the reactor core one and has been removed the spent fuel rods from the reactor four.

The so-called "swine flu" influenza viruses type A or H1N1 was first identified in Mexico in 2009 and has also caused a pandemic (according to some not real) and in the subsequent years cases have shrunk considerably, but now in India according to the health authorities over five thousand individuals were found positive to the virus with more than two hundred victims in the country primarily as the number of cases in Rajasthan, Gujarat, Telangana and the capital New Delhi. The symptoms are similar to those of seasonal flu, in some cases with the aggravating circumstance of nausea and diarrhea, as well as the infections occur in the same way due to coughing and sneezing; moreover like other viruses, antibiotics that are recording the abuse did not help to deal with the disease and even induce antibiotic resistance in the organisms, useful instead disinfection of hands, of the houses and when present in India of the bathrooms.

Children's deafness to misuse of antibiotics

A child is not a miniature adult and should be seen as an individual who requires special care that sometimes may also vary from the norm and thereby not just reduce the dose of a specific antibiotic because it has a positive effect in the small body with immune defenses not yet well developed, then we should avoid abuse of medicines since it speaks of "blunt weapons or a so-called post antibiotic era" because of uses untargeted and often unfair. In China, for example, there is a shortage of pediatricians and hospitals equipped for children care and happen many cases of deafness (and subsequent silence about the difficulty of learning the language) because of the abuse of antibiotics maybe even for little leaflets clarity in medicines package. To remember that antibiotics are useful against pathogenic microorganisms and then generally should not be used for viruses.

Blood test for smoking cessation

A large portion of people who try to quit smoking take up the unhealthy and expensive habit in the first week and this might depend on the body's ability to break down nicotine and then doing a blood test by a person being treated to test how fast is this process should be possible to get better results in the therapy, but some argue that it is necessary to verify the cost-effectiveness of these additional tests. When dropping the levels of nicotine in the body a smoker feels the urge to light a cigarette that has the effect of alerting a false nice sense; in fact there are ways to help stop smoking aimed at rebalancing this aspect. To note that even in Italy there are proposals to ban smoking in cars with children, on beaches and in places frequented for the consequences of passive smoking.

In a situation of antibiotic resistance to broad range making difficult to treat many common infections and therefore impossible the surgery, the chemotherapy, and organ transplants, a new class of antibiotics currently in experimental stage is hope researchers, at least it appears from an American study which focuses in particular on the feature of being able to eradicate microbes by one of this group of twenty-five antibiotics that take advantage of a new technique for bacterial culture in laboratory. The new class of antibiotics targets fats that are essential to construct the bacterial cell wall. Antibiotics are normally able to act only against pathogenic microorganisms without damaging tissues, but that their properties that made them indispensable to treat many infections and in many cases formidable lifesaving was almost exhausted because of misuse.

A cheap method to quit smoking

A study carried out in New Zealand over one thousand and three hundred adult smokers shown to double the chances of quitting smoking using a vegetable-based method of cytisine for twenty-five days; moreover this natural method is cheap compared to the classic nicotine replacement therapy that costing at least four times more too also if are experiencing mild side effects (nausea, vomiting, trouble sleeping). The cytisine used in the method to help stop smoking works because the brain recognizes as nicotine by reducing withdrawal symptoms, then saw the low cost of the remedy could be used effectively in emerging countries. To note that the alkaloid cytisine contents in seeds of leguminous plants of Cytisus laburnum is poisonous (as nervine), it is a small tree of the Fabaceae family with petiolate leaves and generally yellow flower clusters.

Quitting smoking is as always the best thing to do to avoid a dangerous lung cancer or emphysema, and even take dietary fibre may be useful since it reduces lung inflammation, at least according to a study carried out by researchers in New Zealand that would have shown how this benefit may be derived from the small chain fatty acids produced by the gut bacterial especially abounds with high-fiber foods; in fact it has been seen that in individuals who had a diet poor in fibers the gut bacterial flora was characterised by less favourable bacteria. Another study, this time of American researchers may explain why males become ill more than women with cancer because of smoking; this would result from the loss of the Y male chromosome, but thankfully just quit smoking to repair the damage to the body.

By comparing different parts of the body of many individuals, researchers have noticed that the face has many more variables, at least from what appears to be an American study that linked this phenomenon to genetics since the structure of DNA and the genes that contribute to give a face the specific features vary more than those in other parts of the body, this maybe because evolution has ensured that individuals were more easily recognizable without any confusion that may occur. If for example a face of a person belonging to a community had been exchanged with that of an enemy would have resulted in high evolutionarily costs and for this reason of particular distinction happens that some species of wasps have a livery that makes them easily recognizable that helps to identify each insect maintaining their specific hierarchy.

Some argue that fruit bats may be at the origin of the epidemic, but note that do not need to exterminate them since in the past to control their population is not served to stop the spread of virus and indeed emphasizes their ecological role, however is correct the prohibition in Guinea to chase and eat them.

Bees prefer pristine environments and their population continues to decline due to climate change, pests and pesticides, especially neonicotinoids, then beekeepers do not take enough hives rich in nectar and pollen so can make selections and try to compensate for the losses considering the vital role of bees in pollination.

Consume too many resources also means a lot of pollution, product prices on average higher and economic instability towards the poorest in the world who can not have efficient access to resources but seek to improve their living conditions; then have to consider that can recover many raw materials that are not available in Europe.

It's probable that outbreaks of the epidemic which are located in many densely populated areas often can still kill many people, so local authorities should send medical staff to cope with the disease, but are poor countries that do not have sufficient equipment; moreover are areas where the population tends to move frequently spreading the infection.

Little sleep affects the activity of many genes

Comparing blood samples from a group of individuals who had slept over ten hours a night for a week with a group of those who had slept less than six British researchers have found that the activity of over seven hundred genes was altered, whereas each gene is used for the formation of a protein based on its specific genetic code, and then the chemistry of the whole organism may change because of sleep deprivation. We must also take into account that health suffers as if the body can not renew their cells this can cause degenerative diseases; and even cardiovascular problems, diabetes and obesity, and may be linked to an insufficient duration of sleep, while the immune system is weakened by this unhealthy condition which is known to have implications on the overall well-being of the organism.

Hopes for the treatment of melanoma

Using a combination of medicines that allow the immune system to recognize and target melanoma with a type of therapy still experimental, but that would seem to be very effective, the researchers would be able to treat patients lengthening life expectancy whereas until a few years ago the hopes of survival were reduced to about six months since skin cancers tend to spread quickly to other organs in the body. An interesting aspect of this pharmacology strategy based on the immunotherapy is that it could also be used in other types of tumors by blocking the biological pathway that cancer uses to prevent the immune system assaults him even if must evaluate with advanced stages of the trial (as happens for each medicine) the side effects and benefits of real long-term care.

Lignite extraction mining in depth little convenient

Continued the discussion about the safety of work in the mine following the accident happened in Soma ten days ago that would have caused more than three hundred victims and therefore classified as the worst incident ever occurred in the mines in Turkey, while the miners have placed on one of the inputs mine says "Work Safety First" and some argue that the accident occurred in a lignite mine that is usually extracted from surface mines having a low energy density since it is inconvenient pull it out in depth, and then to lower the cost managers would have saved on safety. There is talk of poor equipment, inexperience and incompetence, and as the production of the mines pushed to the highest levels in order to increase profits is incompatible with the safety, with acceptable working conditions that ensure the health of the miners.

Precautions for rising cases of Mers coronavirus

Following the increase in cases of individuals infected by the so-called Middle East respiratory syndrome (Mers coronavirus) Brunei's health authorities have warned travelers to take precautions such as vaccination against the flu two weeks before the trip, avoid areas crowded, to have contact with people who show any symptoms, the animal farms, wash the hands with disinfectant after the toilets and before touching food and possibly consider whether it would be better to choose another period of time to travel for example in Saudi Arabia. It would not have been found an increase in the virulence of the virus even after a case not serious infection occurred in America apparently for a simple handshake, but in the meantime the total number of people infected is about six hundred with one hundred seventy-five deaths and for the moment there are no effective treatments.

Irritability can be connected to pain sensitivity

People who are particularly sensitive to pain often become easily irritable and for example the lights become too bright, sounds too loud and too be just slightly touched can become unpleasant (normally many individuals have experienced this unpleasant feeling sick) and a study carried out with injured squid would have shown that this hypersensitivity could result from a primitive defense mechanism to enhance survival. The pain would act on the peripheral sensory system causing it to become hyperactive and this would have been tested in animals as a primordial feature to be very vigilant to defend themselves from predators. In the past some searches on individuals suffering and for this reason too sensitive to pain argued that to perform biofeedback and relaxation techniques would be useful to find some relief.

Predictions about ground-level ozone unhealthy

While ozone in the stratosphere plays a beneficial life by blocking the action of ultraviolet rays coming from the sun at ground level can cause a number of health problems that can be mild such as coughing and throat irritation, but also more serious as bronchitis, asthma, emphysema, as well as damaging the plants and crops; then it should contain global warming also to prevent pollution by ozone in the summer seasons may become an unhealthy factor in the coming decades. These predictions (with different scenarios) were made by American researchers analyzing the levels of ozone on the ground in their country considering the chemical reactions between nitrogen oxides and volatile organic components in the presence of solar radiation, and improvements to the air we breathe obtained by reducing the precursors responsible for the formation of ozone.

Strong increase of melanomas and prevention

Comparing the data of individuals affected by severe forms of melanoma in England it was found that in the seventies had been about eighteen hundred cases each year and now there are more than thirteen thousand each year; then a strong increase possibly due to the fashion of the package holiday in the sun in Europe or the use of sunbeds and sunlamps whereas melanomas are the fifth most common cause of cancer with more than two thousand people lose their lives every year to this form rather aggressive of tumor pathology. When it burns staying too long exposed to the sun means that the DNA of the cells of the skin has been damaged and this occurs more easily in the case of the classic clear complexions, with many moles and therefore it is advisable to avoid sunburn putting the shade , wearing a T-shirt or using a good cream (with UVA protection) for the sun.

Lifestyles more healthy for the planet

Pollutant emissions have continued to increase from 2000 to 2010, and faster when compared to previous decades, a percentage greater than two percent a year and then the planet's average global temperatures in 2100 could be higher by about four degrees Celsius above the pre-industrial levels; so to avoid disastrous consequences for the planet according to experts it is necessary to move away from the model very polluting of economic development that has been adopted and preferred lifestyles more environmentally friendly, more sober and healthy. One of the areas to make more efficient is that of the energy that counts for a forty-seven per cent on the amount of greenhouse gas emissions, then the industry responsible for thirty percent and transport for an eleven percent. Innovation and technology in addition to the recycling and reuse of all raw materials used can help to reduce emissions.

Severe forms of obesity unhealthy

The most severe forms of obesity in America would be on the rise with a body mass index (BMI) between one hundred and twenty and one hundred and forty percent higher than people of the same social status and this can lead to serious disorders such as diabetes and cardiovascular problems, then teenagers are more difficult to treat; moreover a relationship pediatric highlights in contrast to other studies that generally all forms of obesity would be increased. The research was based on nearly twenty-seven thousand children and young people from two to nineteen years of age in the period from 1999 to 2012 in a plane of nutrition and public health, and then with a look of wider range than previous studies also aimed to find solutions to improve the quality of life of all families, since it is unthinkable that a condition in the complex unhealthy is the normality in a progressed country.

Regulations on use of electronic cigarettes

Due to the rapid market penetration of electronic cigarettes health authorities in Wales would be willing to regulate its use in public places also to avoid weakening the enforcement of ban on smoking in these places already in force since 2007; Moreover, there would be concern that the use of these cigarettes of technological type powered with battery can increase the number of smokers, since the nicotine contained in the liquid charging is still a very active substance and should avoid that the new generations could inhale. Electronic cigarettes have been put on the market for the first time in China in 2004, and their use has steadily increased over the years supported by a strong and lucrative industry (sometimes to compensate the decline of "traditional" ones), but there are some who feel that the health risks remain and even of new forms of addiction.

Restrictions on tobacco also useful for children

Analyzing the results of eleven studies conducted in six countries between America and Europe, it was noted that the laws that were intended to restrictions on tobacco control had a positive effect for innocent victims of a little salutary habit related to the inhalation of cigarette smoke such as the young children, in the sense of a remarkable reduction in the number of premature births, low birth weight and asthma hospitalizations of children, then these laws are useful for public health to reduce the risk for diseases that can be connected to smoking. Only sixteen percent of the world population can enjoy the benefits of anti-tobacco rules whereas usually there are no special restrictions and a forty percent of children around the globe could be exposed to secondhand smoke. Worth noting that the cigarette smoke is released into the air even pesticide residues used on a large scale in the cultivation of tobacco.

Advanced age of life and well-being

It is generally thought that old age is inevitably connected to a happy little moment of existence, but from a British study of psychological type performed on ten thousand adults in England shows that the more difficult to deal with the problems of daily life and the reduction of the state well-being do not affect the average level of satisfaction, which remains quite high at least according to the statements of older people although it is the perception of one's own frailty and feelings related to the end of life. The very concept of "happiness" tends to change with the various stages of life from the moment that change the fundamental values and priorities considered important enough for a state of well-being. Other studies showed to the contrary, as for young people in Europe struggling with generational conflicts were not a good time, at least with regard the happiness.

Teens and use of electronic cigarettes

More and more teenagers around the globe make use of electronic cigarettes advertised as useful for quitting smoking, but from research done on adolescents in America it seems that the consumption of conventional cigarettes has increased in children who use these devices that emit an aerosol of nicotine and other chemicals powered by batteries, moreover may be the primary route of access to the market of tobacco for the eye-catching and innovative image of the product. The chocolate and strawberry flavors prohibited for ordinary cigarettes since they can attract the attention of young people are allowed to electronic cigarettes (in non-regulated markets in general), then there are components considered carcinogenic such as propylene glycol and smoke particles are very fine with the risk that they can penetrate deep into the lungs.

Unhealthy frequent nightmares in children

In general it is quite normal for children to have nightmares or fits of terror during sleep (Pavor nocturnus) that often there is no trace in the memory upon awakening, but researchers warn that if these events are frequent and tend to recur for several subsequent years may be a sign of unhealthy psychotic disorders, especially in cases where these nightmares are accompanied by uncontrolled movements of the limbs and other gestures with screams of excitement. It is not clear the relationship between nightmares and psychotic disorders, and it is speculated that might arise from the fact that children have been bullied or traumatic events in the early stages of their lives, whereas usually one in every ten children have nightmares between the ages of three and seven years. Some studies in the past showed brain activity intense dreams useful to a normal mental and reorganization of the organism.

Examination of lymph nodes to detect melanomas

With a sentinel lymph node biopsy should be possible to identify patients at risk for dangerous melanomas in order to increase the survival rate of individuals affected by these skin cancers rather aggressive, at least from what appears from an Australian international study lasted two decades which showed that in these cases in which a lymph node showed the proliferation of tumor cells may be helpful to remove all nodes of the area concerned. This preventative technique can also help to avoid that the disease can spread throughout the body thereby increasing the chances for survival of about ten years in the forty-four percent of cases (changing in practice the treatment guidelines), but biopsy sentinel lymph nodes is a method that some found them a bit controversial although there are now a lot of evidence favorable to its use.

Improper use of hydrangea

The hydrangea is a shrub (kind of saxifragacee) native to Asia and North America by the shape rather globular that produces characteristics ornamental inflorescence colored with shades ranging from pink to blue, white, and for this also cultivated in parks, and for some time especially in France and Germany apparently stealing hydrangeas from the gardens to make some kind of cigarettes to smoke, but burning it produces hydrogen cyanide which is very toxic and inhibit the oxidation cellular process. This hydrogen cyanide, whose molecule is much exploited in the chemical industry, is a volatile liquid smelling of bitter almonds highly flammable irritating to the respiratory tract and can cause seizures, loss of consciousness and even death, and misused to simulate the effects of a narcotic for the effects of stunning and mental confusion.

Examining the compounds emitted by the breath with a silicon microprocessor and a mass spectrometer in individuals with suspected lung cancer American researchers have identified carbonyl compounds including aldehydes and ketones which may be predictive of the disease, in fact, have elevated levels of the three components on four of these carbonyl groups can be useful to detect any tumors in ninety-five percent of patients, whereas otherwise it would be predictive of a benign mass in eighty percent of the cases. The results of the study are preliminary, but it was noted that surgically removing the malignant nodules from patients sick concentrations of these volatile organic compounds called "VOC" return to normal levels, and then instead of proceeding in invasive biopsies should be possible with a simple breath test to identify the cases at risk.

According to the Chinese health authorities there wouldn't be for the moment the danger of large-scale outbreak of avian influenza H7N9 has not been identified and no mutation of the virus, but in the meantime there are several victims in the new year and the investigation about how disseminated the infections in individual cases revealed that there may be some live poultry markets contaminated and therefore the public should maintain good hygiene habits and stay away from these markets with a high risk of infection. A man from the Jiangsu province in China has recently died in Taiwan and then should pay attention to any epidemic spreads in spite family members or anyone who has had contact with him has been identified positive to the virus. The provinces of Shanghai and Zhejiang would be the most affected by the new wave of infections possibly due to the increased consumption of poultry.

The studies carried out on laboratory animals for decades would show as triclosan and similar substances interfere with hormone levels and encourage the growth of drug-resistant bacteria to be able to have effects on fertility and even carcinogenic, whereas typically think of using an antibacterial product exactly for cause of the health effects and prevention.

According to other studies, smokers tend to make the decision to quit smoking from a Monday or the first days of the week and then this contradicts the popular belief that is stop smoking in unpredictable days, and even suggests how to enhance the strength will be preferable to set a precise day upon which to throw the pack of cigarettes that in addition to skin aging throughout all the body.

There would be no danger to humans and to food level even if the authorities had already established the rules ban transportation of chickens in the area with veterinary checks. As for the most dangerous H7N9 strain of avian flu according to the Chinese health authorities should intervene and stop any possible source of infection within the autumn before the virus can spread easily.

Sleeping to increase a little the learning

Is common belief that sleep consolidates the learning, but still do not know why this happens and what are the mechanisms involved in the brain during the night to facilitate and enhance the learning of the previous day, and now researchers spotted in a modification of the waves and brain rhythms a possible explanation to this particular storage option. During the night, the brain can also have more energy and at the same time not to be distracted by the many stimuli that by day continually disrupt learning. Previous studies had already identified changes in the brain during the sleep of the so-called "nictemerale rhythm" characterized by waves with frequency more regular and slow and therefore more suitable to process the information stored some time in chaotic times during the day.

Test of promising malaria vaccine

Malaria is becoming resistant to the medicines and this infectious disease conveyed by the bite of the Anopheles mosquito poses a threat to the health and overall well-being whereas in 2010 two hundred and twenty million people infected causing six hundred and sixty thousand victims and researchers have carried out tests on a promising new vaccine that would guarantee one hundred percent protection of volunteers who have lent themselves to receive several injections necessary for the immunization. Dissecting the salivary glands of mosquitoes steps would be taken to isolate the sporozoites, then we proceeded to weaken these parasites immature so they can be used in vaccines that will require a long time, however, and further criteria before they are actually available on a large scale. The experiments were probably suggested by the observation of the results of previous studies of 1970 in which volunteers had been immunized by many mosquito bites previous irradiated to weaken the parasite Plasmodium falciparum responsible for malaria.

Last goodbyes to the director of Fukushima plant

There have been in part favorable opinions on the work of Yoshida, director of the Fukushima nuclear plant at the time of the tragic nuclear accident in March of 2011 and who died at the age of fifty-eight years for esophagus cancer, in fact his decision to cool the reactors with sea water has probably prevented more serious damage to the environment (and to the population health) even if the plant operators did not want this operation to be carried out since it would compromise the functionality of the reactors. The Japanese authorities have stated that the tumor was not due to radiation, although by now there are many doubts about the real health situation of the staff who worked in difficult conditions in the early stages of an emergency, while still trying to remedy the uncontrolled leakage of the decommissioning process that produces four hundred tons of radioactive water per day.

Sensors for testing the hand washing

The lack of hand washing in care is considered a major cause of infections that can also have serious consequences, and to try to improve the level of hygiene have long used various tricks with signs and written notices of reminders, but given the poor effectiveness are now studying technological systems like sensors that detect chemical vapors and if the cleaning solution was used to wash the hands make change the color of the identification badge or devices that emit an audible warning if is forget to use the dispenser soap. In the case of intensive care units (where weakened patients may suffer from in the slightest infection) are also used for more complex systems that trace the path of health personnel and check if they have actually proceeded to wash thoroughly the hands with surveillance cameras.

Unbreathable air and dengue cases in Singapore

The citizens of Singapore are facing a period of not just healthy locked in the house with the windows closed to avoid being intoxicated by the smoke feed from the fire that is devouring fed the Indonesian forest that has plunged the city into a kind of dense fog, and trying to prevent infection by dengue epidemic typical of these latitudes that would reach an unusual number with more than eight hundred and fifty of cases monitored in a week. In 2005, fourteen thousand infections were recorded and twenty-five victims because of this tropical disease, but now the population is concentrated mainly to find a way to breathe without becoming intoxicated the air thick with smoke that emanates from illegal fires on farms. Also noteworthy the uncomfortable situation for the population in India for the territory devastated because of the monsoon floods with the army still busy trying thousands missing.

Preventive diagnosis for gastro-oesophageal reflux

Being able to identify the early symptoms which then tend to become annoying with burn over the stomach related to gastroesophageal reflux may be for the opinion of British researchers very useful to decrease the percentage of individuals who develop almost without realizing a type of cancer difficult to treat, moreover with new tests and less invasive alternative to endoscopy will be able to take samples of the esophagus to be tested to the genetics of cancer cells. The men seem more prone to these ailments that women are often perceived as a kind of heartburn, whereas also have acid indigestion is not normal and therefore it is necessary to conduct thorough checks. Typically maintain a weight form with balanced nutrition avoiding excess of alcohol and smoking can be useful for preventing gastroesophageal reflux and a large number of other disorders more or less serious.

Sunscreens help maintain youthful the skin

The new solar products of various kinds to protect the skin from exposure to harmful ultraviolet rays have filters much better than those that were used in sunscreens twenty years ago, and according to Australian researchers should use them not only for health reasons to do that does not form dangerous melanomas, but also to keep young the skin preventing wrinkles and blemishes may make it age prematurely. The daily use of sunscreens by exposure to the sun can also be useful for individuals not just young and still in testing it was found that after four and a half years of regular use of sunscreen was found in twenty-four percent of the cases a better appearance of the hands, as regards the typical signs of aging, as compared to those who did an intermittent use. Little evidence, however, of the usefulness of the beta carotene in the nutrition to limit the photoaging.

In case of psoriasis may be useful to lose weight

Psoriasis is a skin disease that can have debilitating consequences annoying the psychophysical balance and it is estimated that about the three percent of the world population has those unsightly red spots on the skin with whitish patches sometimes of squamous type caused by the disease, and a small study carried out in Denmark that still needs further investigation would have shown that losing weight can be useful in case of psoriasis also to improve the quality of life of the individual suffering from the disease. Among the advantages to undergo a diet should also consider the best body's response to certain medicines as well as health benefits for the cardiovascular system. Studies conducted in the past on psoriasis had focused attention on the photo-active substances and DNA synthesis of epidermal cells that resulted accelerated.

Feet colonized by a large number of fungi

Analyzing the population of the various fungi that colonize the human body and also proceeding to their DNA sequencing American researchers have found that the feet are home to almost two hundred types of fungi in "peaceful" cohabitation, and in particular the heel with about eighty kinds would be the more complex habitat for these fungi followed as for number by the areas under the nails and toes. Since the feet would be sensitive to the diversity of the population of fungi is recommended that walking barefoot does not mix with the fungi of some other person wearing appropriate footwear whereas an imbalance of microbes can promote the proliferation of dangerous microbes and therefore some related diseases. In a twenty percent of volunteers subjected to analysis of the microbial population were found infections caused by fungi which can also be caused by a weakened immune system.

Reassessed the benefits of sun exposure

The sun's rays help to lower blood pressure due to the action of ultraviolet rays on the skin and as a result the risk of heart attacks and strokes then for British researchers should be re-evaluated the benefits of exposure to the sun, at least given the many notices of caution because of the danger of favoring the formation of melanomas on the skin, but further studies are also needed to verify these relationships risk/benefit. Usually is remember how the sun's rays favor the production of vitamin D (food and supplements do not have the same effectiveness) without taking into account that of nitric oxide which apparently reduces the pressure, and dermatologists have tested it on volunteers with the exposure on the skin of UV rays actually found that after an hour the blood pressure was reduced significantly, whereas the only heat shall not have any appreciable effect.

Admissions and discharges in China for H7N9 virus

The infections caused by the H7N9 "avian" flu virus led to one hundred and eight individuals the number of patients, twenty-three [26/04] of which have died and twelve were discharged, the largest number of cases is now in Jiangsu province but in Shanghai has the highest number of victims, according to authorities there would be no the evidence of infection from person to person and it would be isolated cases but lately has been sent a commission of experts to give an opinion on the matter. Be noted that three cases of infection have been reported in Anhui province (where there is a victim) and Henan, then a case in Beijing, while the last two deaths occurred in east of China in the Zhejiang province despite the efforts of medical personnel in treating people infected [a case also in Taiwan of a man that had travelled in China]. The main symptoms would be high fever, cough and expectoration.

Preventive measures against H7N9 flu in China

According to the authorities, there would be for the moment no danger of infection from man to man the new bird flu called H7N9 and recommend to the population as precaution to reduce the contact with live birds, wash the hands frequently and to the first flu symptoms undergo undergone medical checks also to control adequately the situation in which for now twenty-four cases of infection and seven victims are reported, then there would not be an easy transmissibility of the virus and spread to a wide area. A vaccine would be to the study after it has been isolated the strain of avian flu H7N9 although still not well understood its origin (perhaps migratory birds), its virulence and transmission capacity, whereas there is a doubt case of possible family contagion. In the meantime, have been adopted restrictive measures on the sale of some processes of poultry in China.

Loneliness not assisted for the elderly unhealthy

The condition of loneliness of the elderly is a parameter that affects the physical and mental health of many individuals that are isolated, apparently independently to feel lonely, and the cuts to the budget for home care for cause of the economic crisis in Europe has aggravated the situation, at least given the evidence from a British study that calculated a percentage of the death of twenty-six percent greater over seven years in men and women of the age of over fifty-two years that have been isolated from family and friends. Often the worst conditions occur in older women and in individuals who also have difficulty moving, arthritis or lung disease, then, according to researchers not only affects the emotional or the fact that they have little contact with others, but also the lack of family warmth or someone who warn to take medication or aids to do something.

Bedbugs resistant to any repellent

The Cimex lectularius is an insect spread across the globe and in the homes where it nestles in cracks, carpets and especially in bed (hence the name) and feeds on blood and according to the researchers is becoming resistant to any repellent since it has developed mechanisms genetic defense with thicker skin and enzymes that metabolize pesticides or other tricks of chemical type. In these cases usually provides to ventilate the rooms, clean the cracks and sunning the rooms and then to wash at a suitable temperature all the linen, bed linen, blankets.. also useful to decrease the population of dust mites (Dermatophagoides), which are the species of very small arachnids that feed on flakes of skin falling off continuously from the human body and generally do not give any trouble but some people are allergic to their droppings.

Sleeping pills and fracture risk in elderly

One of the major causes of disability in the elderly is the hip fracture, and since the pills to help the sleep would be associated with an increased risk of falling, before taking them should carefully consider the risk/benefit ratio, then insomnia is not a problem that affects only nursing homes but also some professional categories and according to some experts should analyze and resolve issues that may interfere with the individual while sleeping rather than take easy various medicines. Not sleeping well is definitely due to illness during the day, poor attention, memory disturbance, imbalance, increase in the percentage of risk of accidents at work and while driving, but this does not mean that just take a hypnotic pill to solve the situation and sometimes just remove the sources of "noise" that disturb sleep at night to get improvements.

Genes changed during a sleep of poor quality

In a study comparing blood samples of a group of individuals who previously could sleep ten hours a night for a week and in the second phase of the English research less than six hours has been found that over seven hundred genes were altered and since the same composition of the body is controlled by these genes it follows that the instructions for the formation of new proteins may be unregulated. If the biological rhythm of the body suffers the effects of sleep deprivation is affected the entire immune system with important effects on health, such as issues affecting the cardiovascular system, diabetes, obesity, inflammation levels, poor performance of brain function and ability to respond to stress, until to cause degenerative diseases. The study also has been conducted for hypothetical medicines or other gimmicks that can counter these negative effects.

Sugar for wound healing

One of the characteristics of sugar is to capture slowly the water molecules and in this way prevent the breeding of bacteria and a remedy to cure the wounds seen by a girl working from his father grew up in Zimbabwe and now nurse in England was just what granulated sugar to sprinkle on wounds to cure them. The first tests of this simple method would be successful, but first be sure that really work further studies are needed even if at first glance it seems that the bacteria end up dying after sugar has attracted the water and dried wounds by decreasing the bacterial load. A patient in whom it was necessary to practice surgical amputation above the knee was treated with this natural method (salutary also for the morale) and although the wound was remarkable is being treated with decreasing "doses" of sugar.

It has long been known to be healthy holiday periods it possible to detach a little the normal rhythms and now a British study has shown that the health benefits last for at least a fortnight from the end of the holidays and may be longer in some cases for months, in fact, comparing the characteristic data related to the health of two groups of individuals, one of which gone in places frequently chosen for leisure trips and one remained at home to work were found some differences. For example, the blood pressure would be decreased by six percent in the group of vacationers and risen of two in that stayed at home, then the quality of sleep improved by a seventeen percent against a deterioration of fourteen, also improved compared the energy levels, the humor and resilience to stress by reducing the risk of diabetes and overweight due to a lower level of blood sugar.

Link between cleaning products and asthma

Individuals who during cleaning operations are exposed to the action of chemicals such as bleach or other cleaning products are likely to irritate the airways due to fine particles inhaled and therefore favor the onset of symptoms of asthma, at least according to the results of an English study carried out over seven thousand people who showed this link as a risk factor in one out of every six cases of asthma in adults. The grater category exposure to this type of pathology bronchial would be the farmers (flour and grain are together detergents as causes of risk), then there would be the mechanics of aircraft, but there is a possible link to all individuals who inhale particles detergents. Generaly during the cleaning operations is advisable to protect themselves with appropriate masks, gloves and dedicated clothing in addition to air the rooms in order to favor the air exchange.

Simple preventive measures such as washing hands frequently and coughing bringing the arm to the mouth (inside the elbow) rather than a hand could be useful to prevent the spread of influenza can spread as apparently is happening in America in cities such as New York and Boston who have declared a state of emergency public health due to the high number of admissions and the authorities recommend vaccination that would prove effective in more than sixty percent of the cases for an H3N2 strain considered quite aggressive. Would be found almost twenty thousand of influenza infections in New York and then four times those of last winter, and even tripled in Boston where advise patients to stay home if sick. Avoid crowded places and to bring the hands to the face are the other simple preventive measures to still apply in the case of influenza epidemics.

If the circadian rhythms of the body are not in sync with the time zone of the place chosen as the destination of the journey may be impeded connected to the so-called jet lag, but according to a Canadian study it is possible to reduce or prevent the malaise that usually occur when crossing multiple time zones with the right exposure to light before the trip or shortly thereafter. If there is no sunlight, is possible to use appropriate portable lamps that simulate it, then on the other hand may need to stay a bit in the dark in order to adapt the biological rhythms and these conditions apparently vary from person to person and is also can be calculated depending on the duration and direction of travel at a suitable exposure to light. According to previous studies with a type of enough light nutrition can reduce the symptoms of jet lag or with supplements of melatonin.

Because of dermatitis the optical image for example of the thumb can appear with many more cuts and white lines compared to normal jeopardizing scanning computed; therefore, in these cases it is appropriate to use creams for topical use and avoid irritants on the workplace.

Cars traveling in Asia continue to increase and consequently the fine particulate matter PM10 pollution blamed for causing at least eight hundred thousand deaths every year, and we expect a further worsening in 2035 providing that cars can exceed one billion, with an increase of emissions of four hundred percent compared to 2005 levels. The metropolis of Asia are often shrouded in an unhealthy smog and the situation generally tends to worsen even if there are initiatives to improve air quality as in Hong Kong where it seems that the government has approved measures to limit emissions from production plants and diesel-powered vehicles and other measures to raise the standard of quality of the air. Some argue that it is possible to reduce the harmful particulate matter of ten micrometers emitted by diesel engines with particle filters as well as with a better design.

Some have reported that there are new forms of persuasion that lead to smoke cleverly hidden in so-called "apps" to download to your smartphone, bypassing in this way the anti-smoking legislation, without considering that smoking is a source of many carcinogens and recent studies have shown that if you smoke in the car does not even turn down a window to reduce the charge harmful.

Gondola fed with manure of cows

A ski lift for skiers of a Vermont area with several lines of descent that uses a gondola to transport tourists in quota was modified to be powered completely with manure of cows, in a process that uses the manure of ten thousand cows which is then mixed with the water that comes from the production of milk and then pumped into an anaerobic digester. The action of bacteria on the material heated at a temperature of forty degrees Celsius for about three weeks converts it into biogas (sixty percent of methane and forty percent of carbon dioxide) which is then used to produce electricity through a motor specially modified to operate with this type of power supply. It seems that the process also allows a reduction of odors caused by manure, healthy for the tourists in the warm summer season.

The possibility of these reactions could include stressful natural tendency in women to identify hazards that may threaten their children, however, followed in succeeding even to neutralize the negative effects on the cardiovascular system.

Recently it has been pointed out that boys tend to be exposed even to the rays of sun on the beach with no special precautions or respecting safety times, causing sunburn and redness that if at first may seem irrelevant then, over the years reveal all their position of danger, in fact, the skin has a "good memory" of the damage, without considering that the uncontrolled exposure favors the formation of unsightly wrinkles and brown spots.

A Canadian study found that individuals undergo restricted diet lost more weight if they slept eight hours instead of six, although this consideration should not lead to think that it is enough to sleep more to lose weight, but to encourage to a balanced weight loss program as well as control diet also treat sleep hygiene (not to mention adequate bodily exercise). Bad sleep is linked to the difficulty of losing weight or type of food riots, in fact, there is evidence that would indicate a greater feeling of hunger in people deprived of sleep for a couple of days. To improve the quality of sleep according to German researchers should not smoke because they note differences in negative way than non-smokers, noting that if an individual has difficulty sleeping should stop smoking.

A vaccine for allergies and runny nose

A new type of vaccine for the so-called hay fever would study in England cheaper and more effective than the usual treatment with antihistamines or subcutaneous injections of pollen in increasing doses over a period of three years to get used to the immune system and increase tolerance to pollen; infact with the new technique the injection is really shallow with a quantity of pollen two thousand times less than that hitherto used and also with fewer calls of the vaccine. Despite the body's response not wait to face to the first injection with a conspicuous lump on the skin, over time tends to fade and the allergic reaction to grass pollen tends to zero, then the researchers are also trying to reduce other symptoms such as sneezing. This new vaccine being tested should be useful (in the mechanism of organic functioning) also for asthma and allergy to food.

Some argue that the so-called Eastern water pipe are less harmful than cigarettes because it would filter toxins from tobacco, but from a study carried out in Iran would instead found the same respiratory problems of those who inhale deeply cigarette smoking, with significant effects on the functional values of the lungs, and indeed by comparing the data with those of normal cigarette smoking some value is sometimes higher. The study was performed on various groups of individuals including a non-smoking of control verifying the typical unhealthy effects on the organism that have inhaling the smoke such as coughing and wheezing, considering also that the smoking of water pipes usually inhale more of these fumes that emanate from tobacco usually sweet-smelling fruit, which have high concentrations of toxic components, cancer causing chemicals and various additives.

For cause of the negative effect on the intestinal flora the antibiotics given to children may be responsible for weight gain in later years, at least as shown in a study carried out on over eleven thousand and five hundred American infants who had been given antibiotics until the age of five months and then check an overweight at about three years of age, but it is a link that would require still more research to be confirmed. The intestinal bacterial flora can have significant effects on the state of well-being of individuals and the number of bacteria present (considered healthy) far exceeds the same cells of the human organism, so that for the treatment of certain infections in extreme cases one tries to introduce particular bacteria in the gut and has long been noted the role of some of these microbes vary in caloric intake as well as adjust various intestinal functions.

Globally some discuss the new "unusual" record for the month of July recorded in America with the first seven months of the year, on average, all very hot both day and night because of global warming apparently increased by human activities.

Firewalking sometime unhealthy

People who can walk on hot coals does not have a special right to resistance compared with "ordinary" individuals, but simply a good dose of recklessness and the whole procedure can not go always for the better, as happened to a dozen California that were badly scalded her feet on the smoldering embers while trying to complete the test, and apparently this happened because they have waited long enough time to make sure that the coals are sufficiently cool off. The coals are poor conductors of heat and usually just walk briskly to avoid burning the feet by getting at most a few blister, but do not use the charcoal made from wood (like olive) that develop too much heat in the combustion, then it seems that it is also necessary to level this sort of trail blazing, leaving a little cool off.

Living near the sea improves the health

According to a British study on a statistical basis live less than a kilometer from the sea improve a little the health conditions and this probably for the opportunity to exercise and to be encouraged to take a walk along the coast at least as results from answers to questions about personal health than people who lived far from the coast. The improvements monitored would be small but not indifferent considering the overall health of the entire population, then individuals from social situations less favorable benefit more of the relaxing and healthy environment that can be enjoyed near the coast. To get the health benefits do not need to live in coastal areas, but is enough to "transfer" in other places the same health-conscious attitudes and practice in promoting physical exercise and outdoor activities.

Protect children from the sun exposure

Infants under six months of age should not just be exposed to the sun, since they lack the ability to sweat and then even the more older children have thinner skin than adults and if want to use to protect them a sunscreen (cream, milk, spray..) the different active chemical components in the product could be easily absorbed by the skin. Children have a considerable body surface area in proportion to the weight and thus a greater risk of allergic reactions and inflammation due to sunlight; also, in case want to use a solar filter given the delicate skin of children would be appropriate to first apply a bit of product for example inside of the wrist to feel any reaction, then maintain a good hydration and avoid the reddening of the skin using umbrellas and opportune clothing in hours that should be safe for the sun exposure.

In preparation a vaccine against the nicotine

One of the best ways to avoid the intake of nicotine produces addiction when smoke tobacco according to the researchers would be to have in the blood of antibodies products from a vaccine, still being tested, that can cleanse from nicotine that can produce effects that result in a sensation in the body then perceived as pleasant and therefore may push the individual to the not salutary habit of smoking several cigarettes. The techniques to study this kind of future vaccine, which would act by the same mechanism as is used against common diseases, are of different types and also use gene therapy (whose security is yet to be verified); also may be useful for those smokers who have tried many times unsuccessfully to stop smoking using various products on the market.

Less health care for people living alone

People living alone with heart disease could make harder to take medicine regularly or have medical care and then there would be a higher death rate than individuals who share their home with others, although there may be other factors not yet fully elucidated to be taken into account in these cases that worsen the situation. Researchers with a four-year study on over forty-four thousand people in many countries around the globe have found a higher incidence of cases with fatal cardiac problems in people younger than sixty-five years living alone than older people (which sometimes prove to be more independent and with healthier living conditions), but in an emergency situation we must consider that a person that live alone, would not have anyone fot to call help.

Sleeping less than six hours and symptoms of stroke

A study of about five thousand and six hundred people for three years would have shown that sleeping habitually less than six hours favors significantly the symptoms of stroke in both middle-aged individuals both advancing age; moreover, a brief sleep duration would be a precursor of other risks of stroke are considered traditional. Individuals who participated in the study had no previous stroke, transient ischemic attacks, stroke or symptoms of a high risk due to obstructive apneas during sleep and researchers having first investigated on body mass index found then an association between a period of time of duration less than six hours dedicated to sleep and a higher incidence of stroke in addition to other risk factors. Other studies indicate that morning people (usually young) seem happier being able to enjoy even more exposure to the light.

Drink only a quarter of a glass of wine a day

According to a British study of the amount normally recommended for a healthy consumption of alcohol every day (about two glasses of wine for men and one for women) are too high and to save many lives every year by the damage caused by the consumption of beverages should reduce alcohol intake to a half units of alcohol per day, corresponding to about a quarter of a glass of wine a day. The list of diseases that could be avoided by reducing the consumption of alcohol is quite lengthy: cancer, cardiovascular problems, stroke, high blood pressure, liver cirrhosis, diabetes, epilepsy.. and therefore should be limited to use within a week one full glass of wine. Previous research has highlighted the health benefits of certain antioxidants present in wine (especially that red of quality varieties) but for people who do not drink is not the case that start to drink alcohol beverages.

Researchers do not know if the children with specific brain structures are more likely to play computer games or if this kind of dependency can be the cause of major brain changes and point out how is necessary to compare the time spent watching television or various video games with the amounts of salt or alcohol consumed in the nutritional diet.

Caution in exposure to the sun for the young

Young people should be more careful not to burn yourself when taking the sun, according to results of a study of individuals aged between eighteen and twenty-nine years old since it was found that in fifty percent of the cases complained of having taken at least one sunburn the last year with the risk that some melanoma with time can attack the skin. Very frequent also the use of tanning beds (apparently to a greater extent for girls) or other devices for home localized tanning that according to previous revelations statistics increase significantly the skin cancers, so should inform young people about what is important to protect the skin, which has a kind of long-term memory for burns (especially those that are experiencing cracking and irritation), with all the series of small strategies to minimize the damaging effects of ultraviolet rays.

Hair pigmentation in Melanesian population

The population of Melanesia (named for the dark color of the skin, so black islands) of the Solomon Islands, located to the east of the Papua New Guinea, was unusually the blonde hair in ten percent of cases, and the researchers have proceeded to analyze genetically the blonde hair to see if there was any difference from blacks and found that there is a mutation in the gene called "TYRP1" that could be causing the blonde color, so even though in general the darkens pigmentation is to protect from ultraviolet rays, there would also be a cause genetic and hereditary. Other studies in the past have shown that in the genetic transmission of the black color dominates in order on red and blond even if the color depends on the distribution of the melanin in the hair structure and also varies a bit in function of its cross section.

With a questionnaire on dietary habits of almost seventy-five thousand Swedes aged between forty-five and eighty-three who had no cardiovascular problems and cancer has been highlighted by the results of a study which lasted ten years that individuals who received milk and yogurt with low-fat had a lower risk of heart attacks and strokes (respectively, twelve and thirteen percent) than people who ate their food whole. Milk and dairy products low in fat that are not "totally low fat" are considered healthy foods for their supply of calcium, magnesium, potassium and especially vitamin D that may be useful to protect the cardiovascular system, but many previous studies have shown that it is also necessary exposure the skin to controlled sun to ensure that the action of sunlight can contributes to suitably synthesize the vitamin D.

Diabetes and obesity linked to disturbed sleep

Disrupting the circadian rhythms that regulate sleep-wake rhythms and decreasing the number of hours of sleep, according to results of an American study carried out on twenty-one individuals, would increase after a meal the concentration of glucose in the blood due to a reduced secretion of insulin from the pancreas with the consequence of an increased risk over time of obesity and diabetes. The test was carried out comparing the metabolic values of subjects first slept for a period of about ten hours at night and then halved the amount of restful sleep sleeping at different times of day and night in order to modify the body's circadian rhythms, then the study was concluded with a period to restore normal sleep by the subjects in order to "re-stabilize" the rhythms. It is estimated that the weight gain in a year could be quantified in almost five kilo with a disturbed sleep did not change diet and activity.

A million years ago the first use of fire in Africa

By analyzing the remains of ashes, burnt bones and stone work typical of Homo erectus in a cave in South Africa researches speculate that it may be a test of how man has used fire frequently about one million years ago, perhaps leading material taken from natural fires burning as a trigger for homes on which to cook or keep warm even if it is more likely to find evidence of habitual use of fire must go back four hundred years ago. There were other caves in South Africa with remains of ancient hearths but it's hard to establish how it was lit a fire or whether it was inside the caves due to natural events, then recently it has also been found in East Africa a bone of a foot of a hominid skeleton comparing similar to that of that famous of Lucy, but which retained the characteristic of the primates to be able to easily climb the trees.

Two other women to undergo a test for food intolerances have swallowed a bottle of sorbitol (a natural sugar more easily assimilated of the common sucrose) would be out of danger and seems to have been saved with an antidote against poisons that would neutralize the components toxic present in this type of sorbitol probably of industrial origin and not purified.

The bus was modern and equipped with the latest security systems, even if it is possible that there may have been a technical glitch, but the dynamics of the accident is likely that the driver of the vehicle has had a hit of sleep at the moment which presented an obstacle (not following the straight path). Many studies have shown that if we do not sleep well even if have the impression that have the ability to drive may happen to fall asleep for a few seconds, or have serious distractions "with eyes wide open".

For cause of enlarged tonsils or adenoids children snoring during sleep and somebody of these (in small percentage) according to a new study could suffer from obstructive sleep apnea that can cause cognitive deficits, behavioral problems with symptoms of fatigue or to opposite hyperactivity that ceasing quickly when we begin to treat their sleep hygiene. Obstructive apneas that often are not easily noticed by the person who does not notice the interruption of breathing during sleep, in adults may be due to unexplained distractions at work and driving, degenerative brain disease, stroke, sometimes of the silent type that cause hazardous microtrauma, and according to some sleep badly could also profoke the Alzheimer's disease since during sleep a proportion of soluble amyloid protein would tend to decrease or could aggregate the plaques in certain areas of the brain.

Infections linked to circadian rhythms

Depending on how the biological rhythm of the organism is able to scan the correct time also varies the immune system's ability to cope with the infection and if this mechanism does not work properly decreases the possibility of eliminating possible pathogens; moreover, researchers are studying the role of a particular receptor that could activate the genetic code in order to combat viruses and bacteria, but influenced in his action by the specific "temporal" zone of circadian rhythm. Able to identify links that molecular regulate the immune system on the basis of circadian rhythms would be useful for both the prevention and for the treatment of certain diseases since it has been noted that a serious risk to health for example in case of infection increase in a precise shift and the same medicines should be administered by the appropriate phase of the biological rhythm of the body.

Because of cold winds coming from the Siberian steppes and from the north (Burian, Borea, Bora..) the perceived temperatures could be in these days much lower than the real ones and then the situation really uncomfortable and decidedly unhealthy from the moment that cold peaks were reached over minus twenty centigrade degrees in northern Africa. Anticyclonic cells that usually allow to maintain fro example in Italy temperatures of Mediterranean-type with air dry and temperate, but probably due to changes in climate in the world give way to cold currents supported by the icy wind that can make in minutes unbearable live outdoors and have at least one hundred and sixty victims in Europe.

Following the sinking of a large cruise ship in an area considered vulnerable from the naturalistic point of view as happened to the Island of Giglio in Tuscany authorities should establish safety standards to regulate the routes of these giants of the seas that often pass close enough to bathers on the beaches, such as on the islands, to allow passengers to observe the coast and close-up pictures or to greet. If the cruise ship sank due the incoming tides and to slip from the step over that is poised and to lose the about two thousand four hundred tons of heavy fuel into the sea the damage to the beautiful beaches of the island of Giglio (Grosseto province in Italy) and the entire area affected by the potential environmental pollution would be very serious, and local tourist operators are concerned about the next bathing season since bookings usually start a few months before.

A test done by comparing the hearing of a group of adult musicians with another group of individuals who were not playing musical instruments has been noted by Canadian researchers less loss of normal hearing sensitivity and hearing loss typical of a certain age in adults who could play a musical instrument. Hearing loss that occurs with aging seems to make it more difficult to understand speech in situations with background noise that make the confused voices of the interlocutors (such as happen in crowded rooms) and the musicians would be able to better recognize words in speeches despite the background noise that disturbs the conversations. Use the ears regularly may help to prevent changes in the brain caused by aging in addition to exercising that kind of "control center" that allows to distinguish the auditory speech.

Other studies showed how the elderly in which there is a shallow sleep there could be a risk of hypertension, with heart consequences that can also serious caused by the negative effect of high pressure on the cardiovascular system that over the time can cause many health problems and of healthcare in general.

Considerations of calories labels and nutrition

To use labels showing calorie informing consumers of energy intake contribution of the food seems to be useful in some cases to ingest fewer calories, and along with initiatives that promote physical activity, health standards at work and about the contribution of alcohol those programs are part of the mass of information that can help to more informed choices even if can not really talk about a sudden changes of direction on behaviors. The information provided to the consumer can influence the eating habits such as pushing the consumption of larger portions than necessary, whereas on the meal plan, there are significant imbalances in the globe with areas where food is abundant or is wasted and others like Kenya and Somalia where resources are scarce mainly because of climate change caused by states with big industrialization.

Stop smoking with words of encouragement

A research on a group of smokers who were motivated to stop with words of encouragement to give up the unhealthy habit showed after six months a higher percentage of positive results compared to a control group without any messages or varied warning , and using a saliva test was possible really verify if smokers had really stopped smoking. The technique takes advantage of appropriately spaced series of posts, moreover, seems to be useful to try to distract in the case of the temptation to smoke and not get discouraged if sometimes can not just resist, since that falls can happen between the phases of the program smoking cessation. In some countries try to discourage in any way the buyers of cigarettes sometimes are adopted provocative choices, such as to fill almost the entire package with to dissuade texts and images.

Smoking increases the risk of prostate cancer

Patients who smoke several packs of cigarettes each year seems to run a much greater risk in percent for a diagnosis of prostate cancer as aggressive compared to patients that not smoking, then would increase the risk of death especially in the case of diagnosis of non metastatic tumor or that the disease may recur after treatments. Individuals who have stopped smoking for ten years or fewer years, but smoking a few packages have about the same percentage of risk of non-smokers; however in the case of individuals who have smoked a lot of packages despite having stopped smoking less ten years the percentage of risk would be quite high. New anti-tobacco advertising campaigns in some countries would build on shock images type, but it would seem clear that for patients who smoke increases the progression of the tumor and the risk of death.

To properly design a shoe must respect the fundamental relationship of length of form with height and tilt of the heel, since these parameters affect the walk and the type of poise (which can become overly undulating in shoes with high heels); important also the mark that identifies that part of the foot that sticks to the ground, also called triangle of support.

There may be, according to the researchers, a single control gene for cascade variations of other genes that ultimately promote metabolic disorders such as diabetes and metabolic disorders such as high cholesterol; therefore able to act on the activity of this "main" gene would also be able to change the predisposition to obesity, heart disease, high blood glucose and other metabolic problems typical of industrialized societies, is in rich countries than in developing countries (like a way of life). Therapies to treat for example obesity and diabetes have a high cost in and around the globe would be enough in theory, a medicine to control the action of a single gene that affects a whole series of chain events on the behavior of the subcutaneous fat or causes changes in muscles and liver, which would be detrimental to health in general.

Possible correlation between diabetes and cancer

To have high levels of blood sugar is a condition unhealthy for the body and a new study shows that for individuals with diabetes become ill with cancer as a percentage higher than normal and especially in danger of dying from some form of cancer in a greater extent to those that not have diabetes, although the cause (probably due to the level of the hormone insulin in the blood) has not been well elucidated, in addition, there is a difference between men and women. Beyond the excessive intake of calories and lack of physical activity also a lack of vitamin D linked to lack of controlled exposure to sunlight could be responsible for increased occurrence of type two diabetes, high blood pressure, cardiac risk and of some cancers, and this type of deficiency has been noted particularly in adolescents who often have a fairly sedentary lifestyle and unbalanced nutrition.

Radiation unhealthy even for robots

The radiation measured by the robots within the structures of the Fukushima nuclear plant would be enough highin about ten to over fifty milliSieverts per hour, and therefore dangerous for the technicians who work to secure the damaged nuclear power plant, but it seems circuits that robots can not operate if they crossed a certain threshold quantity of ionizing particles. To measure radiation using various scales depending on the type of use and quantities, such as Becquerel for with regard to nuclear "accidents" and those that may be harmful to the cells of organisms was chosen Sievert and sub-Sievert. Making an X-ray exposes the body to a one milliSieverts and a scan until up to twenty milliSieverts (also depending on the equipment used), and some tips to avoid making too many Tac and scans.

Safer nuclear energy

Studies carried out in the '80s had shown that was possible to build nuclear plants much safer, assuming that nuclear energy can be considered safe, thanks to small and medium sized power plants equipped with closed circuit cooling without the use of pumps and closed in concentric circles of protection build with pre-stressed concrete that still allow access for maintenance. The main feature of these systems more secure was a limitation on the power output of the reactor and emergency (passive) facilities that commenced operations without human intervention in a mechanical way, then the research was oriented towards the so-called "cold fusion", which seemed be very promising, but inexplicably the projects were not developed, although it is shown that is possible replicate the basic chemical processes that allow these nuclear safer reactions.

The levels of triglycerides in the blood according to a new study would be the indicators to be monitored to help to reduce the risk of stroke due to the formation of a clot that obstructs the normal blood flow for example to the brain, while the classic examination of cholesterol would not be so predictive as believed in the past, at least for women, while in men need up to twice the average level of cholesterol in the blood to detect a real increase in risk. In particular, should monitor the overall levels of blood fats that can lead to the formation of unhealthy compounds for the body as well as plaques of cholesterol that can thicken the walls of the arteries. Other studies report that high blood pressure, high cholesterol and other metabolic problems can cause cognitive disorders and of memory in middle-aged individuals.

The prices of many basic foodstuffs to feed millions of people worldwide estimated to have reached a new peak, whereas last year forty-four million people have fallen into poverty because of rising prices of wheat and other cereals as well as the oil, with an increase in global food type of the twenty-nine percent (almost to the level of the other global food price occurred in 2008). The trend in prices was partly affected by adverse weather conditions and export bans, in addition, some analysts predict that the cost of food could continue to grow. Another type of global issue that affects millions of people not only in "poor countries" is the quality of sleep rather disturbed, a condition that can also be unhealthy for the body and with the potential risk of heart attacks and strokes.

A particular method of working has allowed to German researchers to derive from the seeds of lupins a protein very creamy and thick suspension suitable to replace all the meat in dishes that require consistency of food allowed by the large amount of fat normally present in food source animal. With the addition of ten percent of proteins to lupins is also possible to give a taste similar for food "rich", allowing the mouth to replace the meat that in the supply chain requires the use of a large quantity of grain, water and fossil fuels for fertilizers and various processes including transport, in addition, the cultivation of lupines uses less land and can also provide fiber (suitable for technology products) and energy. According to previous studies, a regular consumption of lupins may be useful for the wellbeing of the organism with the possibility of being able also to reduce the level of cholesterol.

Sweating more efficient in men

The secretion of perspiration from sweat glands is useful for body temperature regulation and a research confirms that men have a kind of sweating more efficient than that of women probably because they are more accustomed to physical exercise and then also have more body fluids, so feel a less hardship in the case of high temperatures or heavy training. Sweating is also useful for removing toxic substances and waste in small doses even any heavy metals, but in some subjects there may be an incorrect secretion of sweat for cause of neurovegetative "dystonic" problems with smell not properly pleasant for the presence of acid fat conveyed by the intense sweating. Typically with custom workout is possible to stabilize a little perspiration and then there are specific products or perfumes to prevent bacteria on the skin can form a chemicals smell.

The air purifiers that use ozone to decrease the smell of tobacco smoke from the environment could worsen the situation from the standpoint of air quality due to ultra-microscopic particles that tend to be formed by the reaction of ozone with smoking or with parts of combustion of the cigarettes that persist long in the rooms even after a long time. These particles and chemical substances vehicles as "aerosols" easily throughout the respiratory tree to cause of their small size (less than one hundred nanometers in diameter) seem especially harmful to asthma sufferers as a cause of oxidative stress. Others studies have shown that percentage drops in the bad habit of smoking in closed areas, probably due to the recent anti-smoking campaigns and to the smaller presence of individuals who smoke in recently films recorded.

Humidity, temperature and well-being

One of the most important factors for effective well-being is the humidity and thus the amount of water vapor present in it, because the sweating is hampered if the humidity is excessive and in the opposite case with the air too dry may experience an unhealthy dehydration and in any case the temperature plays a significant factor on body temperature regulation. In case of muggy heat with high humidity the perceived temperature can be higher than that real and for elderly or debilitated individuals is advisable to use a dehumidifier, but also the micro environment (and the amount of ozone in the air) can affect the overall well being, causing headaches and discomfort in organisms unaccustomed. The preventive physical training of a certain intensity, to play before the weather conditions get worse, can gradually get used to changes in temperature and humidity.

A new and thick substitutive skin

To improve the living conditions of burn patients, scientists have developed a new type of substitutive skin thickness about a centimeter and half and made it grow in the laboratory on a synthetic base that tends to reproduce the entire structure of the dermis due to stem cells taken directly from one part again healthy of the patient's skin. With this technique was replaced not only the surface layer of the skin, the dermis but all full of the deepest part, and then sprayed with blood vessels, supported by nerves, and like the natural skin with sweat glands and their hair follicles. The damage caused by burns are usually underestimated and often not paid enough attention to how we "fiddles" with the fire, for example, to revive the flame spraying alcohol with a plastic bottle or when the pots full of water bubbles are located on the outer edges of the kitchens.

Obesity caused by domestic issues

The serenity of the domestic environment can affect mental and physical characteristics of the individual and now a research has shown that children of abused mothers were significantly higher obese than normal, in addition females were more prone to this type of problems and usually affects also the security of the neighborhood where the family lives, then we must also consider the socio-economic conditions, education and unhealthy habits like smoking or lack of exercise. In these cases, prevention is taken attempting to intervene on all these factors, and in the past other studies have shown that relaxation-meditation practices could cause some benefit in disadvantaged situations, but always after solving the root cause of the malaise that can provoke imbalances in food that over the time can cause many related diseases.

Experimental cold that dissolves the fat

The problems related to what many define as a kind of epidemic of obesity not only involve the well-being of the individual but also the health of adolescents and if it is not advisable to proceed with invasive surgery, so are to the study other systems such as dissolving the fat with the cold with equipment that can bring down the temperature in the treatment area to about five degrees for an hour. This experimental method would eliminate fat cells in two - three months without damaging the cells of the skin that can withstand to these cold temperatures, but in the case of severely obese patients does not seem to fit. In others researches focuses on nutritional reeducation also to avoid that after an initial weight loss will return quickly to its previous state to have adopted a diet very low.

Lose weight quickly or gradually

Usually it is always recommended in a reduced and balanced diet to lose weight gradually to avoid damage to the organism, but a new study (which still require further validation) it seems that might be helpful to lose weight fast, at least initially and in obese individuals while retaining the weight reduction of about ten percent for an year or more to avoid retrieve it later. Previous research has shown that each individual responds differently to a proper diet combined with exercise to lose weight, but however for very obese people it is better to start with a program rather decided, considering that global imbalances are very important and many people are forced to hunger and starvation for lack of food while other are turbocharged to the excess.

Healthy habits that extend the life

Comparing two control groups including one formed by individuals who did not smoke, drank moderately or teetotalers, regular eating fruit and vegetables three times a day and were at least two hours per week of physical activity with a group that did not follow to the contrary these salutary habits the researchers noted the possibility that in the first case is verified the conditions for a life expectancy estimated at about twelve years older. Individuals who add smoking, alcohol abuse (more than two drinks per day for the women and three for the men), eat few vegetables and also doing little movement, raise a significant share of the risk at least for a long lifespan, so it is advisable to adopt healthy habits, step by step without exaggeration even starting with small improvements in a rather unruly or unhealthy table.

Spring and pollen

Spring is a stunning natural wonder unparalleled even though it may cause some discomfort for the clouds of pollen that are released into the air and now there are many studies that show how the allergens in the molecules of these granules are released from anthers of the stamens of many plants are becoming more aggressive and increasingly long periods of time (probably due to changes in climate on the planet), estimated at around six - eight weeks to pass between sneezing, mild burning eyes and throat, always very soft tissues hand not to irritate too the nose.. Trying to cope with rhinitis (allergic rhinopathy or "hay fever") is quite complicated because just a few of the thousands pollen a plant produces to trigger the allergy, but is possible for example try to intercept them with special oils applied in the nasal cavities.

Hot water that freeze before than cold

The water is a chemical compound whose formula has been written from Henry Cavendish (and the Lavoisier) thanks to his experiments on the synthesis in this case of hydrogen 11.19% of weight and oxygen 88.81%, that they have concurred to define the hydrogen oxide that it covers approximately the seventy percent of the terrestrial surface with the famous formula H2O. Now from a research it is uncovered that the cause for which the hot water freeze before that cold (in some circumstances) is to charge to accidental impurities presents in the compound, to notice also that the ice introduces the characteristic to float on the surface of the water preventing in this way the freezing of the below mass forming a species of lighter layer crystalline reticule insulator with hexagonal symmetry to smaller less compact structure and density. To remember also the importance of the water for the life and the survival of all the creatures.

Qualities of the sleep and economic conditions

Some researches signal that the quality of the sleep generally is diminished in relation to the changed economic conditions and to the difficulties that from some time are putting to hard trial the "nerves" of the population, with the consequence that many individuals try to find a deceptive shelter in little salutary habits like alcoholic, smoke and medicines that in the majority of the cases they get worse the situation and render the nocturnal rest disturbed and intermittent. To stabilize the sleep generally is rather complicated, from the moment that enters in game a great number of factors, but in any case the "classical good habitudes" like drink a few of milk, to read a little and to meditate before sleep, can give a small aid; without to consider that it would be opportune to change the air (in the limits of the possible one and the just hours), to detach the electrical equipment and to avoid to sleep in overheated ambiences.

Every individual has a different answer to a detail type of alimentary regime and an effective diet for an organism could not be apt for an other, these differences for a long time are studied from the "nutrigenomic" and now a small study would have demonstrated that with a normal test of the DNA is possible to understand if a woman more better answers to a diet to low carbohydrate tenor respect to one to contained minor of fat. Is an interesting research even if on small scale, that demand ulterior studies from the moment that is not very clearly which specific gene is been involved; but also in other cases it had been noticed like was a various answer of organisms with different genotype to rich diets in Omega 3 fats (instead for other types of surveyings in the past the results had been often conflicting), the lines and the rules base for being able to become thin remain however unchanged.

Mimic the architecture of termite mounds

Termites are insects that live in tropical castes with a type of society in which tasks are very different (polymorphism), also known as white ants for their resemblance to these insects but are larger and sometimes with wings, then build complex termite nests that are characterized by great architecture shaped tower, cupola or fungus that lurk within mazes of tunnels and arches with a ventilation system that keeps a constant temperature, such as air forcing and even air-conditioned since the moisture content remains stable. Mimic this type of architecture that not consumes energy and is completely biodegradable according to some scientists may help improve the environmental sustainability of human cities, but still not are well known the building techniques like "chaotic" model of these amazing insects.

Profit apparently even the classical nap, but since each person responds differently to sleep deprivation is difficult to quantify how much sleep is necessary to accumulate a good reserve.

Along with traditional cigarettes, cigars and rolling tobacco are apparently also the "tablets of dissolvable tobacco" sold in small packages are very colorful (in some markets) looking as attractive and from flavors as that of the candies that could mislead consumers young people causing a very unhealthy addiction to nicotine, also, as the industry tries to find alternatives because of some decrease in sales of cigarettes seems that new products on the type of tobacco chewing gums and the like these may in future be placed on the market. As regards the "shocking" warnings placed on packets to discourage from the use of tobacco for any damage to the health seems to be, in reality, little effective and indeed is more useful the physical exercise as a practice to distract from the unhealthy habit of smoking.

Despite lung cancer is one of the most frequent cancers in the world, aggressive and difficult to treat many patients fail to quit smoking even after discovering that the body is sick, but at least in the initial stages to continue to avoid inhaling the harmful smoking can double the chances of survival, whereas before it was thought that the benefits were not so significant and indeed is tend do not remove this defect to the patient in trouble (since quitting smoking always requires some effort). As regards the new electronic battery "aromatic" cigarettes does not seem that there are particular advantages apart from the problem of disposing the pollutants cigarette butts, but from the point of view of the health some governments have decided to hinder the spread (not in Italy where it seems they sold several copies free from prohibitions).

Women with blond hair more aggressive

The hair has a structure inside bone marrow, then a layer of cuticle and outer cortex, and the color of the hair depends on the presence of melanin in different layers, so if they are blacks or brown granular pigments are present in the inner layer, fair if present only in the cuticle, where the red pigments of melanin are quite soluble and disseminated. The amount of melanin produced is regulated by specific genes (probably only one) that determines the color and typically varies depending on climatic conditions as well the skin in function of protection from sunlight. A small study indicates that blonde women seem more competitive than brunette for cause that would be best treated (as they were "princesses") and can also serve to gain more attention and courtesy from the males, but from a different angle might make fewer career and earn less.

Now a study would verified how certain smells and aromas that are released while chewing food can give a feeling of fullness, which varies depending on the power of food energy, and this might be useful to develop foods that release those aromas useful to help obese individuals lose weight.

Warnings for smoking cessation to the study

One of the most effective methods adopted to persuade smokers to health-conscious lifestyles is to be affixed to cigarette packages several deterrent warnings, but apparently the call to danger of death could have an opposite effect to that intended because the most hardened smokers contend as pretext the inevitability of death, so it would be more appropriate to take warnings like "smoking makes you less attractive or cause serious harm to you and the people in your life". In fact everyone works differently, and while some might find a reference to the deterrent threat of death while others find ways to continue to smoke will "auto convince" with all sorts of excuses and on the other hand also regarding the charm that exudes the smoke enough to see how many images appear normal despite being a smoking habit is unhealthy and expensive.

Unhealthy smoke just woken up

The damage caused by nicotine may be more heavy for those individuals who just woken up before to eat breakfast lighting a cigarette, this probably occurs due to the fact that early morning is greater the intensity with which he inhales the cigarette smoke, and this was verified by monitoring the levels of a nicotine derivative potentially carcinogen (although more studies are needed to further clarify these cases, since each smoker tends to puff in different ways). In the past, some studies have shown that the desire to smoke, for example in the early morning was indicative of a strong dependence, and one of the methods for testing a real progress in individuals who wished to quit smoking was just to record every day on a table the minutes that passed before it occurred, the desire to light a cigarette.

In particular it seems that is the staphylococcus (a bacterium with spherical cells arranged in clusters) to do a protective function against other strains not quite healthy, while also carrying an anti-inflammatory function that allows more rapid healing of injuries.. that should be clean and protect without touching everyday objects to try to prevent infections caused by each type of bacterium also normally harmless.

To keep the skin healthy and luminous instead of the Sun suntan is preferable to eat fruits and vegetables rich in carotenoids (assuming to have the availability to the purchase of these essential goods always more expensive in stores, but for a complex industrial system that do not allow the survival of small farmers); in fact a study has shown that for to have shades of pink color and pale yellow that give brightness and a more healthy aspect is better to abound with vegetables than with the tan that stimulating the melanin pigment that makes your skin darker and yellow, but overall the effect would look less pleasant than a slight color "natural" that comes from a healthy diet.

The causes of this decrease heart problems seem to be due to the fact that passive smoking facilitates the formation of blood clots blocking the action of "sweeper" of the arteries of HDL cholesterol and may also affect heart rhythm. Other studies have linked the life expectancy of smokers to data about cholesterol and high blood pressure observed that declines by about ten years (middle-aged males) often due to heart problems.

Smokers sometimes are simply attracted by the fascinating colors of cigarette packets and ignore anti-smoking signs, even if given in evidence on the box, becoming distracted by possible indications of "light" tobacco (still permitted in some countries).

High temperatures and ozone

The average temperatures recorded in these days is pretty high, so that levels of radiation typically of the summer and in some cities in Italy is also taking the alarm ozone near the upper limit of attention to 175 micrograms per cubic meter, since this gas allotropic of the oxygen penetrating the perfume is formed as a result of an endothermic process. For the elderly in addition to controlling the pressure may be useful to frequently drink small sips of water at room temperature even if do not feel the stimulation of thirst, than to abound with seasonal fruits, but avoiding sugary or alcoholic drinks. The causes of this rather hot suffocating, not just unusual, it seems to be due to high atmospheric pressure of African type and the climate changes taking place on the planet.. a hardship to be faced without daunted (especially for younger children).

Vegetarian for a day or forever

The recent proposal to suggest to the people as healthy advice to follow for a day a week a type of vegetarian diet to safeguard the health and the environment, though certainly positive (just to start) raises the question whether it would be healthy to eat meat almost every day, considering that especially the red according to many studies could promote the formation of tumors, in addition to "drain" the territory of resources since it requires for the forage of intensive cultivation and irrigation, use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides, medicines and sometimes even hormones for the industrial production. A typical mediterranean diet (classical, very simple or of old style, milk - egg vegetarian) can be followed every day without any kind of nutritional deficiencies, even in terms of protein through the combination for example of cereals, legumes and Parmesan cheese.. [but none prejudice against the meats].

The French sleeping a little more on average

According to a study carried out by monitoring the time that people from different countries dedicate themselves to sleep and food that was on average the French dedicate about nine hours to sleep each night and spend an average two hours a day to eat (apart from those forced to eat a sandwich in a small lunch break at work). The Americans "to surprise" sleep on average over the Spaniards, while those that seem to devote less time to sleep are the Japanese and Korean, with about eight hours on average. Mexican spend an average to the food only a little over an hour, instead the Japanese almost two hours in third place after the inhabitants of New Zealand. As for leisure Turkish citizens appear to spend much time with friends, while the most disadvantaged are the Italian women who devote themselves to domestic cleaning much of their free time, unlike the males that have about eighty free minutes.

Rather aggressive chemicals used to clean and degrease end discharges by factories and homes and collected directly into sewers, and then diluted to arrive without being properly cleaned in rivers in concentrations such that certain bacteria (that usually succumb) become resistant and therefore also with antibiotic-resistant genes that could be dangerous to humans; without consider the antibiotics used in massive doses in farms which could then contaminate the whole food chain.

Easy access to water resources is one of the parameters for the assessment of well-being, but for cause of the climate change and works made by man to harness and channel the water, the situation in some parts of the globe is becoming critical with impact on agriculture and quality of the crops, and are under consideration projects on how to optimize the resources both with less waste and with technologies that make use of every precious drop.

Exercise to prevent the asthma

Conducting a healthy physical activity accompanied by deep breathing (and complete) could be useful in preventing asthma in young people especially, from the moment that a study had revealed as children who spent more than two hours in front of the TV doubled the risk of diagnosing of the disease that often is linked to a kind of sedentary lifestyle with little muscular exercise and overweight. Trying to train the muscles of the airways with regular breathing exercises would seem useful to improve the muscular tone that allows the lungs to maintain full efficiency in the respiratory tree and in this way also prevent asthma and the consequent contraction of the muscles of the bronchi which causes the reduction of the caliber of the airways, and consequently a number of disorders and problems which could decrease the level of general well-being.

Crystalline hearing of the children

It can happen that children are suffering from an infection of the middle ear often secondary to infections that might result from simple colds, infections in the throat.. and that can cause hearing loss and related difficulties in learning, but some researches has highlighted how is little correct to treat all these cases of media otitis with antibiotics, since they sometimes can damage the bacterial flora present in the nose and the throat as well to resistant bacteria, without considering that in most cases the "disorder" resolves spontaneously (if carefully monitored and trying to free from any middle ear fluid formed). The prevention is in every case important avoiding swimming with colds.., taking into account that every infection leads to a small thickening of the mucous that protects the middle ear and frequent cases are not very healthy.

Sleep well also helps the immune system, the health of the cardiovascular and nervous functions, in addition, keeps the weight without feeling too stimuli of hunger during the day (also favored by the advertising), so it should reenter within the global salutary rules also for the health associations.

That high stress was harmful to the health was known for some time, but now a study on many identical twins and that in theory for the genetic should seem very similar in terms of aging and relative appearance seems to have showed that in cases where had been a particularly stressful event or a painful separation seemed apparently older, perhaps for cause of the use of antidepressants that cause a relaxation of the muscles that allow a proper face "tonicity" or for the changes in weight that can modify the look. Previous studies had shown that a moderate stress was rather positive and could stimulate the body to react to difficult situations (accompanied by proper diet, rest, meditation..), but clearly in times of crisis with the loss of many jobs positions is unnecessary discussions of aesthetics.

The quality and hygiene of sleep are important parameters to consider in order to promote global prosperity and the results of a new study shows that individuals who sleep less than seven hours, or that suffer from frequent awakenings during the night could be affected by common cold in a percentage also three times above-average, this seems to happen for cause of changes in the release of histamine, mediators and cytokines (proteins used for intercellular communication freed in circulatory stream as with hormones for example in case of inflammation) that the body uses to fight infection. Other researches showed that was unwise to put on a diet in winter, or take few calories compared to the individual needs for the most vulnerable people, to avoid weakening the immune system and their lymphocytes, which should counter the onset of influenza.

Melatonin is a hormone that regulates the sleep - wake rhythm and although previously have been identified other genes and receptors related to blood glucose, it seems that there is a relationship between a melatonin receptor with the increased risk both of diabetes is for high blood sugar levels. Be reported by other behavioral surveys that parents of obese children often underestimate the problem as if not concerned they and the little boy find themselves surrounded in almost all the ambiences from other kids obese and in this way fail to perceive real differences in physical form, behavior that over the years could affect the health.

Obesity linked to sleep in childhood

Some studies in the past indicated it was important to cure the sleep hygiene to prevent obesity and now it also makes the hypothesis that there may be a link between the hours dedicated to sleep during childhood and obesity by adults, perhaps because of the imbalance in the release of hormones that regulate the appetite and the fatigue that does not promote physical activity in children that sleep little. Was also noted that new generations tend to neglect the hygiene of sleep than precedent for cause of little healthy habits, and infants should sleep at least about eleven hours a day (instead of about 8.5 - 9.5 for the older children), and according to other researches children exposed to many chemicals and dyes could become obese as adults in greater proportion to those who have played in childhood in a healthy and natural ambiences, not too many contaminated by industrial pollutants.

One of the reasons for this kind of imbalance could be linked to that of certain hormones that regulate the appetite and to the sleep-wake rhythms, with the result that some diseases like having high blood pressure or diabetes could be exacerbated for example by a lack of sleep.

The tendency of some persons to being particularly "early-rising or larks" or "nocturnal or owls" could depend on the action of a specific gene said Period3 and the main central that scan the rhythm of all other biological clocks would seem to be localized in the hypothalamus.

Alcohol to the steering wheel and security

Many asked some times which it is the reason for which sure persons would seem to tolerate the alcohol enough well, while others to get drunk easy with consequences on the security in the case a vehicle must be guided and also on the health in a generalized manner. The answer derives from the different presence in the liver according to the subjects of the alcohol-dehydrogenasi, an enzyme that transforms the alcohol in the "toxic" acetic aldehyde and then in sugars, fats.. or burnt completely until obtaining water and carbon dioxide, but in the case the alcohol is introduced in excess the liver could not burn it correctly and therefore it will pass then in the blood and in the lungs (with the well-known effects for the breath). To drink alcoholic could also give the false feeling to be ready, therefore it is advisable drink always with moderation during the meal and then to make one pause adapted before guiding. To signal moreover that to assume during the pregnancy also minimal alcohol amounts it could expose the fetus to malformations of the brain and of other organs.

When we leave for the summery vacations is useful to arm itself preventively with a good dose of patience in order to succeed to support the unavoidable queue that an exodus of approximately seven million persons can involve in Italy, to remember moreover the usual recommendations on the maintenance of the vehicles, on the respect of the limits of speed, the distances of security and the pauses in order to rest (to drive uninterruptedly for hours and hours can put to hard trial the driving abilities). It could also happen of having to dodge readily some "pilot" that even has drunk alcoholic or it could have made use of some drugs, from the moment that to how much by now seems come make an use decidedly exaggerated (always then these toxic substances do not come cut with vary medicinal with also lethal effects).

Probably this result can depend on the fact that the red one is associated to the errors and the prohibitions in the education (but as an example for other studies this color has the property to upgrade the circulation, exciting the nervous system ..maybe a lot depends from the type of situation).

To sleep with an overwhelming warmth

The quality of the sleep is usual a rather important healthy index and the rooms overheat do not favor one corrected perspiration and respiration, with the consequence that to try to sleep also only some hours could become nearly impossible. To smoke and to be in overweight without to carry out some type of sport activity could moreover hinder the sleep and to provoke obstructive apneas in who has the tendency to snore of night; therefore in these cases in order to guarantee an acceptable hygiene of the sleep it can be tried to follow of the healthy norms like as an example a poor light fiber supper (to assume to the morning), to avoid spices foods and do not drink superalcoholic, then not to occupy if possible the rooms where then it will be slept and to air them before going to bed not forgetting to wash the teeth and eventually refreshing the legs in the shower with little cold water.. "to relax" itself and to sleep on a flank.

Approaches the time in which the mosquitoes will begin to fly in the air ready to provoke annoying and itchy punctures fortunately even if in Italy generally are innocuous, however beyond the not always effective electronic devices that use the ultrasounds in order to remove the bugs seem exist also natural remedies thanks to the extracts of some vegetables as an example the instilled of Azadirachta indicates a plant of Indian origin of the family of the Meliacee (said Neem used a lot also for medicines uses). To signal also the increase of the allergies for the climatic changes that have caused in practical an extension of the spring period with pollens more problematic than those of the Gramineae like that one of the Ambrosia artemisiifolia, and in these cases would seem that a salve made up of "petrolatum" applied in the nostrils can capture the pollens.

To sleep well of night with a sleep without too many interruptions concurs to face the days with adequate energy and for this purpose it could be useful to follow of the healthy councils on the hygiene of the sleep being tried to stabilize the every day biological rhythms, as an example going to always sleep and waking up themselves to the same hour, the timetables of the meal and for the physiological requirements, the hours of solar light (trying to become accustomed itself slowly to the changes of timetable, climatic or because of long travels). Who snores or lives in polluted zones from the acoustic point of view, endures many awakenings during the sleep that consequently could turn out less refreshing; with consequences also for the complex "nervous central" situated in the hypothalamus that would have to regulate the rhythm of the organism assuring the well-being. To notice that during the sleep the pressure is lowered, the cardiac frequency and also the cerebral activity modification concurring to a positive energetic recharges.

From the moment that really effective therapies for the Alzheimer would still not exist even if are to the study molecules that would have to prevent the deposition of amyloid proteins, the training of the mind with aimed exercises (for other studies) would remain the only possible preventive practice.

Often are felt to extol from the media the salutary qualities of the red wine, to drink with moderation during the meal until to a maximum of approximately a pair of glasses for the men and one only for the women, however wines richer anti-oxidants they would have to be those gains from the black grapes of the Sardinia and South-West of France thanks to the procianidine present in the peel of the grape that would have to contrast the action of an agent like the endotelina-1 between the responsibles of the arteriosclerosis. To signal that in commerce exist also the kit for to adulterate the Italian wine as was a drink, in compensation it seems that the pure fruit juices to 100% conserve a remarkable quota of anti-oxidants present in the fruits from which they derive (but those to long conservation are sure lacking of the thermolabile vitamins).
