New biodegradable cosmetic products The microplastics present in cosmetic products are very dangerous in the environment and end up in the food chain and in practice in our dishes, tissues and organs; so to try to solve the problem researchers would have developed a glitter biodegradable and even edible based on eucalyptus tree cellulose. The small vegetable flakes reflect light at different angles with colored effects that shine in a varied way simulating the same effect given by plastic materials without polluting the environment and any toxicity in case of involuntary ingestion. This type of cosmetic can be used as well as makeup for skin, nails and hair shine for parties and recreational purposes also for any type of object to shine such as food and cakes (subject to food certification not yet obtained). e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Dec 16, 2022

 Keep the nose warm to defend against viruses When go outdoors with low temperatures from a warm environment you expose the body to the attack of respiratory infections and according to researchers the immune system is more effective against these attacks for example if the temperature of the nose does not drop from thirty-seven and thirty-two degrees Celsius (about five degrees due to the effect of the change from indoor to outside); in fact, laboratory tests would have shown how nasal cells are better able to counteract viruses by maintaining the body's temperatures at the right level, at least with regard to two rhinoviruses and a non-COVID coronavirus typical of the winter season. The experimental tests were carried out using a substance that mimics a viral infection to stimulate the reaction of the nasal mucosa by volunteers who had this thin layer in the nose removed to surgically remove polyps. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Dec 07, 2022 n°: 5203 A planet unsuitable for eight billion people For many regions of the world that are already struggling with the scarcity of resources due to climate change, the increase in the world population will only make the situation worse, since every person needs energy, food, water and a place to live and the planet can hardly offer sustainable solutions to eight billion individuals, considering that only eleven years ago probably seven billion was already too much. For example further clogging for overpopulated cities increases emissions due to queues, lack of fluidity in activities, difficulty maintaining balance with nature and sustaining biodiversity in a fragile ecosystem; then among the areas most at risk regarding an unhealthy imbalance is talk about African countries and in general the coastal areas of the world also threatened by rising seas. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Nov 16, 2022 n°: 5184 Camouflage of the tobacco industry It is estimated that tobacco is responsible for more than seven million victims a year plus over a million for indirect smoking due to unintentional exposure to cigarette smoke, so many more than the SARS-CoV-2 virus; but the tobacco industry apparently tries to disguise itself with a so-called "greenwashing" (washing with fake environmentalist colors) by distributing, for example, hand washing soaps in anti-Covid function, leaflets and disinfectant kits. Even more questionable is the adoption of charitable and philanthropic initiatives with the profits deriving from the sale of cigarettes while in reality child labor is often exploited, deforestation and pesticide use are increased. International health organizations warn that victims from tobacco smoke could increase to ten million a year by 2050; in fact, it is estimated that half of smokers become seriously ill from diseases related to smoking. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Jun 01, 2022 n°: 5041 A cigarette-free future in New Zealand It is estimated that every year there are five thousand victims in New Zealand due to cigarette smoking, fourteen a day with two out of three smokers who will lose their lives for this reason, one of the main causes in the country on which to intervene in the prevention of premature deaths; so the authorities would have decided to ban young people from 2027 the purchase of cigarette packets in addition to reducing the number of authorized tobacco resales and cutting nicotine levels in all products, in stages starting from 2024 - 2025. With these measures is aim at a generation free from tobacco from 2027 (it will also be necessary to agree with the Maori health authorities from the end of 2022) considering that four out of five smokers start before eighteen years even if it is feared in the black market for this type of sales. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Dec 10, 2021 n°: 4891 Harmful effects of air pollution Air pollution has harmful effects on the body to a greater extent than previously thought, at least according to a report by international organizations that highlights how ninety percent of the world's population already lives in areas where there is at least one dangerous air pollutant; moreover, a picture has been drawn up of the health consequences of the six main pollutants in the air. It is estimated that seven million people lose their lives every year due to pollution (against four million seven hundred thousand in total for the 19-nCoV pandemic) in addition to affecting the health of millions of individuals every year, then air pollution is now comparable to other global risk factors such as improper diet and tobacco smoke; moreover, a parallel has also been made with global warming and the impact of fossil fuels. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Sep 24, 2021 n°: 4826 Many more victims due to smoking than to Covid It is estimated that in 2019 well over seven million people lost their lives due to cigarette smoking and related causes, so many more than because of the SARS-CoV-2 virus; but apparently no one talks about vaccines that allow to get rid of this unhealthy vice considering that even those who do not smoke often fail to protect the respiratory tract from the passive smoking of the many people who do not comply with the prohibitions (without considering children and young people who can hardly protect themselves by moving easily like adults). Among the most affected countries China with over two million four hundred thousand victims counts thirty percent of the total followed by India, with over one million and the United States with over five hundred thousand. Of note changing the topic the increase in 19-nCoV infections monitored lately in the United States and Israel that can be linked to the virulence of the Delta variant. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Aug 20, 2021 n°: 4795 Effects on the body of heat waves It is estimated that heat waves on the planet will become more and more frequent with a large number of people (especially the elderly, frail and with pathologies) who will lose their lives due to suboptimal temperatures and in particular researchers focus attention on hot nights with over thirty degrees Celsius in the environments; in fact, subjects who suffer from cardiovascular problems, asthma and respiratory diseases may not be able to rebalance body temperatures and the homeostatic mechanism, a bit like what happens to air conditioners that if subjected to mechanical stress accumulate too much frost frozen outside until they stops working. Animals and plants do not escape this reasoning, so measures should also be taken to protect the ecosystem from heat waves, for example by identifying the areas most at risk. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Jul 27, 2021 n°: 4774 Choice of plants for mini gardens To improve air quality and well-being, increase biodiversity and the aesthetic appearance of cities, attract useful pollinating insects many decide to buy seedlings for a mini garden; but some say that to be sustainable there should be a careful choice since often seedlings are imported with very polluting air flights, wide use of pesticides also not allowed depending on the country of production (sometimes even harmful to health) without considering the slow-release chemicals that generally serve only aesthetic purposes. Needless to say to beautify balconies and gardens it is better to prefer seedlings from certified supply chains that in some cases also indicate the type of pesticides and the environmental impact of cultivation plants and the use, for example, in greenhouses of photovoltaic panels and other ecological solutions. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: May 28, 2021 n°: 4722 Smokers risk 19-nCoV complications Comparing the data of those infected with SARS-CoV-2 virus a study would have found that smokers risk severe symptoms and complications that can be linked to contagion in higher percentages and for a longer period of time. Among the various symptoms monitored and aggravated by cigarette smoking would be coughing for a long time, feeling burning in the chest, loss of smell and taste as well as muscle aches, confusion, diarrhea, fatigue even until the impairment of vital functions since smoking reduces the ability of the immune system to respond and lung capacity, already compromised by Covid-19. The risk figures in general are high given the pandemic numbers with over eighty-five million people infected worldwide and one million eight hundred and fifty thousand victims. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Jan 09, 2021 n°: 4603 Salutary and Well-being * The author doesn't assume some kind of responsibility for the bad use of the articles councils (all rights are reserved) |
