Alternative medicine to cure AIDS or Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome is a very sought lately.

AIDS is so difficult to treat it's been a scourge throughout the world population. Drug actually works has not been found and billions of dollars have been spent to fund the research study did not produce anything.

If the story had been sticking red fruit native Papuans of Irian Jaya which he said could cure diseases caused by HIV virus, then based on the latest health news mentioned that alternative medicine has been found to cure AIDS virus.

Really? Do not believe it before reading the article it. Previous posting about the types of food cause we did not lose too sleepy to pull lho:)

Perfume Could Treat AIDS Patients?

Whether true or not, a researcher from Kazakhstan claimed could cure AIDS using perfume. Perfume that can be estimated that the drug would have a very expensive price.

Until now there has never been a drug that could actually cure people with AIDS. Although the medical and science is now developing an HIV vaccine for the disease AIDS, but it is still in development stage.

Since AIDS was becoming a pandemic in the early 1980s, the global is more than 25 million people died of the virus. World Health Organization (WHO) estimates there are currently 33 million people who are already infected.

However Beime Larzjaibaeva convinced that his invention could work and is a miracle. "This perfume could be very costly later on," he said as quoted Larzjaibaeva from Austriantimes, Thursday (17/9/2009).

To the media in his town, saying that with Larzjaibaeva inject 'perfume' in people with AIDS, he could treat immune system disorders due to AIDS. But no one knows the exact composition or the content of what is in the perfume that is claimed to cure AIDS.

AIDS or Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome is a disease caused as a result berkembangbiaknya HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) in the human body.

HIV attacks white blood cells (CD4 cells) and cause damage to the immune system. The loss or reduction in body resistance to make the person very easily infected by various diseases, including even minor ailments.

Larzjaibaeva is a scientist from Kazakhstan who was ousted from the community of researchers in the country. Whether because of his discovery that sound crazy or what.

Even a medic who handle cases of AIDS said that the ideas and actions are illegal Larzjaibaeva. "It's very illegal. Inject perfume into the human blood can be very dangerous. Not only HIV patients, but also a healthy person," said Dr. Kozhahmet Mahirov, head of Kazakhstan's Center Against AIDS.

But if it is true there is a perfume that can cure AIDS, would be very much demand.

Our Bodies Nutritional Needs: Fat

The human body needs food to provide energy for the whole process of life and for growth, repair and maintain cells, tissues and organs. Foods containing from 3 groups of substances: carbohydrates, proteins and fats needed by the body in different amounts. In addition, the body also need fiber, vitamins and minerals. Fiber obtained from the food that comes and plants and is essential for improving health in the body and help prevent serious diseases that can be life threatening. Vitamins and minerals are chemical substances contained in foods and is needed in small amounts to take part in metabolic reactions in cells. It is best to fill the need for vitamins and minerals by eating a variety of foods. While supplements may be helpful in some circumstances.

FAT

Can be found both in animals and plants in an organic form called lipids. Lipids is important for high energy storage, increase carbohydrate calories and provides cushioning and insulation. Fat-free fatty acids can be saturated or unsaturated, depending on their chemical structure. Saturated fat is more dense than the unsaturated

3 fatty acids have a major function of the human body:
1. Vital component of the membranes that surround cells and regulate the entry of substances into the cell and remove it.
2. Function as hormones and chemical messengers into the cell and between cells, tissues and organs.
3. Stored in the cell as a backup fuel



Meat

Saturated fats eg cholesterol. Made in the liver and is needed in the production of bile salts and hormones-hormones, but the body needs only small amounts dlam. Foods high in saturated fat include: red meat, fatty dairy and eggs and is also found in many processed foods / canned. Must be balanced with fiber foods because fiber binds cholesterol and remove it from the blood. Blood cholesterol levels high mnyebabkan narrowing of blood vessels and lead to heart disease and circulatory disorders, especially if lack of exercise.


Unsaturated fats are divided into: Compound (Polyunsaturated) and Sole (Monounsaturated). This is the fat that can help improve health. Majemuknya forms including group 'essential fatty acids' that can only be obtained from foods such as fish oil and vegetable oil, can reduce the risk of heart disease. Even some types of oil also has anti-inflammatory effects and anti-allergic, and if we can help increase the consumption of suffering from eczema, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. Even also prevents ovarian and colon cancer. Maximum fat we consume 25-30% of total calories each day. Get used to baked goods or boiled / steamed and drinking low-fat milk every day. But remember, a diet that is too low-fat or no fat at all is very dangerous for the body.

Choosing a Good Hospital

Growth in Indonesian hospitals today can be said booming. After a lot of people complain about hospital services that are too long-winded, now appears many private hospitals with a mission to promote the service. Various efforts they take. Ranging from using tools that supercanggih to use foreign terms in the naming of these hospitals. For the price matters, is certain that such hospitals are more expensive than my level of public hospitals. Everything is done solely to attract enthusiastic patients. That way, expected to increase hospital revenues.

But, do they guarantee the quality of treatment for the disease you suffered. Or you'll get a more expensive facility? Do not until you "hit the ladder had fallen too". Therefore, there is nothing wrong if you start now to be critical in choosing a hospital that will determine the safety of your soul or your family members. How? Here are some tips that you can make reference to when to use hospital services.

Finding Info
So you do not either choose a hospital, surely the first thing you should do is to find information about the hospital you want to go. Information that you can get from anywhere. As a neighbor of the information, browsing the Internet, by asking the people who have used the hospital services, or by asking directly to some of his patients. Then, after getting a resource, what are the must you ask? Yes! You have to find out about the first service process when the patient came to the hospital. Here can be seen whether the patients are given direct service (which is recommended) or just "parking" patients for some time to come (which is not recommended). Find out if the nurse while the patient cool and whining as told in his song Jasmine Trias (who is very not recommended).

Five Great Service
Although not an absolute requirement, at least it can describe the site's ability to provide services in the health field. If for basic types of services alone was not available, whether you will believe in the quality of the hospital? A good hospital has at least minimal services "big five". Among other services in internal medicine, child services, surgical, gynecological, neurological, eye, ENT, skin and teeth. If necessary, consider also whether there subspesialistik services. For example, in the field of disease in a subspecialty of heart, kidney, hypertension, lung, and so on. Then in the field of surgery as a surgical urology, bone, and so on. Similarly, in other areas.

Having accreditation
Not only the school or college course that must be accredited. In order to improve hospital services to patients, the Ministry of Health has established Commission on Hospital Accreditation (Kars). As for the things that surveyed included 16 service. Among other things: 1) Administration & Management, 2) Media, 3) Emergency Emergency, 4) Record Media, 5) Nursing, 6) Radiology, 7) Laboratory, 8) operating room, 9) Pharmacy, 10) K3, 11) infection control, 12) Perinatal Risk, 13) medical rehabilitation, 14) Nutrition, 15) Intensive, 16) Blood. In conducting the survey, Kars will reduce the administrative Surveyor 1 team, 1 or 2 Surveyor Medical and Nursing Surveyor 1. So, you should not doubt that the hospital had put the accreditation certificate at one of the hospital walls. The certification is only valid for 3 years. So, look at all whether the certification is still valid or not? Do you actually stunned by the sight of his frame good.

Paramedics and Patient Communication
It is the right as a patient if you want as complete information about what actually happened to you. Therefore, when you search for information about the hospital, do not forget to ask also whether the communication between doctors, nurses, and nurse well enough? Do not you regret it after the treatment the doctor or nurse had just given the answer "yes and no" every time you ask.

Achievements
Like a soldier, he must fight to gain experience and know the ins and outs of the war. The same with hospitals. During the stand whether the proud achievements of the hospital? If no, it will be similarly equipped but never fought. Hospitals, too, though the tools that the latest super had never or rarely experience handling cases of the disease, you certainly do not want you to make an experiment?

Information Center
This is the part that should never be forgotten from a hospital. Because not everyone is so understanding about the world of health and other things that are still relevant. The role of information center is to help people who need good information concerning the medical and non-medical services.

Environtment Support
The hospital is the most convenient place for patients to rest and be free from interference from the surrounding environment. Therefore a good hospital, will consider environmental aspects as one of the aspects included in management control. This means that a good hospital will care for the environment and make it as comfortable as possible start in terms of cleanliness, tranquility, comfort, and so on.

nutrition in pregnancy

For a young couple just married, pregnancy is God's grace invaluable. We are given confidence by the Lord to give birth and care for God's creatures is the most perfect human being. Of course we should not be arbitrary in this noble task. We must prepare for the birth of that cute man in the best possible, so that what God entrusted to us we were wrong not to use aliases to be treated carelessly.

One of the preparations carried out during pregnancy is to maintain good nutrition for mothers and babies in the womb, because during pregnancy, the fetus inside the mother's body grew rapidly. This development was strongly influenced by maternal nutritional adequacy. when less nutrients, growth can also be affected.

Before we discuss more about the kinds of nutrition for pregnant women, we find out first how to know the nutritional status of pregnant women. One of the parameters to determine the nutritional status of this is to look at weight gain during pregnancy. Ideally, in the first 5 months there was 1 kg increase in maternal body weight per month. In the next month is expected to increase by 2 kg per month.

Confused? Okay, we conclude it. During pregnancy, an expected increase in maternal body weight of:

*
7 to 11.5 kg for those with weight> 65 kg during pregnancy began.
*
12 to 15 kg for those weighing 45 to 65 kg during pregnancy begin
*
12.5 to 18 kg for those with body weight <45 kg during pregnancy begin

After finding out the nutritional status of pregnant women, then now we are stepping into the subject of calculating nutritional needs of pregnant women. A pregnant woman needs for 2485 calories per day, which consists of:

1.
Carbohydrates: Carbohydrates are the source of power / energy (1g carbohydrate = 4 calories of energy), other uses of neural networks of health care and essential in the formation of red blood cells. Requirements: 1292 calories less or equal to 323 grams of carbohydrates (about 5 plates of rice). Sources of carbohydrates include rice, noodles, potatoes, bread, etc.. Advice: consume 9 servings of carbohydrate (1 serving = 1 slice of bread or a half cup of cereal) every day.
2.
Protein: Protein is needed as a building material to build alias fetal tissue (protein intake is less able to inhibit the growth of the fetus). Requirements: 60 grams per day. Source: meat, fish, milk, eggs, tofu, tempeh, and nuts. Recommendation: the consumption of 3 servings of protein each day (1 serving of protein = 2 eggs or 200 grams of chicken meat / fish)
3.
Fat: its usefulness among others as the body's energy reserves when the mother later gave birth (fat is the energy-rich nutrients, 1 gram fat = 9 calories), solvent vitamins a, d, e, k, in addition, fatty acids such as omega-3 fatty acids and 6 are also required for the development of the nervous system, visual function and growth of the baby's brain. The main sources of fat are meat, milk, eggs, butter, vegetable oils, etc.. Recommendation: consumption of less than 1 tablespoon of fat substances at each meal, in order to provide energy and increase in fetal brain development.
4.
Vitamins and Minerals: Sources of vitamins and minerals are vegetables, fruits and milk. Consumption of 4 servings of vegetables per day (1 portion = half a cup cooked vegetables or 1 cup raw vegetables) and 3 servings of fruits a day (1 serving = 1 medium apples or half a glass of strawberry). Do not forget to fill out with a glass of milk.

The function of vitamins and minerals alone are:

*
Vitamin A: Helps the growth of skin, bones and teeth. It is important for normal visual function.
*
Vitamin C: Helps the formation of fetal tissue. Important in the metabolism process.
*
Vitamin D: basic materials of bone and teeth formation.
*
Calcium: Building bones and teeth.
*
Iron: Helps the formation of red blood cells.
*
Folic Acid: Preventing congenital defect in the spine.
