Dalam sebuah penelitian oleh Kimberly-Clark Professional, 39% dari survei
responden takut mengambil kuman di toilet umum lebih
daripada tempat lain. Apakah ada alasan yang bagus untuk rasa takut atau
orang terlalu khawatir? Dapatkah Anda mengurangi risiko?
WHAT'S IN THERE - DAPAT IT HURT ANDA?
Tanpa terlalu spesifik, ada banyak kuman yang dapat
berkembang di toilet. Bakteri hidup dari kelembaban dan organik
makanan (atau limbah) - yang dapat banyak di toilet umum.
Kekhawatiran akan menghubungi STD's (penyakit menular seksual) dari
toilet umum lebih berkaitan dengan rasa takut penyakit daripada
kemungkinan memungutnya dalam sebuah kamar kecil. Banyak
bakteri dan virus tidak hidup cukup lama di luar tubuh untuk
mudah menular. Namun, beberapa ahli mengakui ada
teoritis risiko herpes atau kepiting yang dikontrak di bawah
tertentu - tetapi tidak - kondisi. Beberapa fasilitas umum
menyediakan penutup toilet duduk flushable, antibakteri pembersih atau
Anda dapat baris tempat duduk dengan kertas toilet.
Perhatian yang lebih besar adalah bakteri salmonella dan shigella yang dapat
akan ditransfer melalui kontak dengan tinja. Yang terinfeksi dapat
menularkan bakteri di tangan mereka yang kemudian dapat
ditransfer ke memerah menangani, pintu menangani dan kran.
Kebersihan Toilet - melawan bakteri
Bau busuk, kurangnya pasokan dan genangan air di lantai semuanya dapat
tanda-tanda salah perawatan.
Bau yang berasal dari kamar mandi umum dapat disebabkan oleh air seni di
tile grout. Jika tidak benar lantai dibersihkan setiap hari (atau
lebih) maka garam asam urat tidak akan dihapus dengan teratur
pembersih. Garam ini menyediakan sumber makanan bagi bakteri yang
proses pencernaan mengeluarkan bau busuk.
Produk seperti MicroGuard (tm) dari AllDura dan bahkan stainless
baja dapat mengurangi pemeliharaan yang diperlukan untuk menjaga pertumbuhan bakteri
minimal.
Kurangnya persediaan (kertas toilet, mengeringkan tangan handuk atau sabun) dapat
juga meningkatkan kondisi higienis dari sebuah kamar kecil. Terlalu
toilet ramai dapat kekurangan persediaan atau kurangnya
tersedia wastafel, sabun dispenser atau alat pengering.

Kanker Serviks dan Pengobatannya
Kanker serviks, untuk beberapa orang, mungkin tidak akan menjadi sangat umum jenis kanker, tetapi sayangnya, tidak kurang berbahaya. Kanker jenis ini menempati posisi kedua setelah kanker payudara dalam jumlah kematian yang tercatat secara global, setiap tahun pada perempuan antara usia 35 dan 55. Meskipun prevalensi bervariasi dari satu negara ke negara, tergantung pada, aktivitas seksual; meskipun hal ini belum terbukti secara medis, sekitar 300.000 perempuan memiliki tahap berbeda kanker serviks secara global.
Penyebab kanker serviks jauh lebih rumit bila dibandingkan dengan kanker payudara dan dengan melakukan pemeriksaan Pap smear secara teratur, sering mudah untuk mendeteksi kanker pada tahap awal, apabila pengobatan akan lebih efektif dan kurang invasif. Penyebab paling umum dari kanker serviks telah terbukti menjadi manusia Papilloma Virus (HPV) yang ditularkan melalui hubungan seksual. Virus ini dapat menyebabkan luka di sel-sel dari leher rahim yang dapat berlanjut menjadi kanker. Namun, pemeriksaan Pap smear secara efisien dapat mendeteksi tanda-tanda awal kanker pra-perubahan dalam sel-sel ini.
Sayangnya, meskipun kesederhanaan jenis kanker ini, kebanyakan wanita tidak menyadari hal itu sampai tahap-tahap selanjutnya ketika kanker telah menyebar ke seluruh leher rahim dan kadang-kadang, ke organ terdekat. Hal ini dapat disebabkan oleh fakta bahwa perubahan kanker sel-sel serviks span suatu jangka waktu yang panjang dan seringkali tanpa gejala. Meskipun ini baik di satu sisi, karena memungkinkan Anda untuk mengobati secara efektif kondisi pada tahap pra-kanker, juga buruk, di lain pihak, karena tetap dalam tubuh yang sangat panjang selama periode waktu tertentu, tanpa bentuk tanda / peringatan, mendatangkan malapetaka pada sel-sel dari leher rahim dan membuat perawatan sangat sulit jika akhirnya ditemukan.
Jadi, pencegahan dan deteksi dini sangat penting dengan kanker serviks. Beberapa laporan medis mengatakan sekarang ada vaksin untuk mencegah kanker serviks. Vaksin dikatakan datang dalam tiga tembakan dan ketika diambil secara seri, itu diyakini benar-benar mampu mencegah kanker serviks dengan meningkatkan kekebalan tubuh terhadap HPV. Namun, vaksin harus diambil sebelum gadis menjadi aktif secara seksual untuk itu untuk bekerja secara optimal. Kau dan aku tahu bahwa bentuk pengobatan terbaik adalah pencegahan, jika Anda memiliki anak perempuan, saudara atau teman-teman yang masih di bawah umur seksual, membantu mereka mendapatkan vaksin ini akan membantu terbaik yang bisa Anda berikan kepada mereka. Tanyakan kepada praktisi medis untuk informasi lebih lanjut mengenai vaksin.
Pada tahap awal perkembangan kanker serviks biasanya diobati dengan kemoterapi atau radiasi atau kadang-kadang, kombinasi dari keduanya. Kemoterapi melibatkan penggunaan obat-obatan yang masuk ke dalam aliran darah. Ini mengandung zat-zat kimia yang dapat menemukan dan menghancurkan sel-sel kanker, tanpa merugikan sel-sel normal tubuh. Meskipun obat ini datang dengan beberapa efek samping, tetapi tubuh bisa mengatasi ini setelah perawatan telah selesai. Radiasi melibatkan penggunaan gelombang elektromagnetik yang kuat untuk mengecilkan tumor, membunuh sel-sel kanker dalam proses. Selama proses, organ-organ lain tubuh terlindungi dari radiasi.
Namun, dalam tahap lanjut kanker serviks, pembedahan biasanya merupakan satu-satunya alternatif. Tergantung pada seberapa jauh kanker telah menyebar, pengobatan mungkin memerlukan penghapusan parsial serviks dan rahim, yang dikenal sebagai parsial histerektomi. Ini cadangan indung telur dan bagian-bagian lain dari alat kelamin perempuan.
Jika penyebaran kanker telah mencapai beberapa bagian dari leher rahim dan rahim, radikal trachelectomy mungkin pengobatan alternatif. Ini melibatkan penghapusan serviks dan bagian bawah rahim dengan beberapa kelenjar getah bening di panggul yang mungkin telah terinfeksi. Pilihan perawatan ini dimaksudkan untuk mempertahankan kesuburan.
Namun, dalam kasus terburuk kanker serviks dimana kanker telah menyebar di luar rahim, radikal histerektomi adalah satu-satunya pilihan. Ini melibatkan menghapus sepenuhnya serviks dan rahim, ovarium, bagian dari vagina dan kelenjar getah bening di daerah. Ini adalah perlakuan yang sangat radikal dan sering menjadi alternatif terakhir ketika kanker telah keluar dari tangan. Karena nilai hormonal ovarium, pengangkatan ovarium sering memiliki implikasi kesehatan yang serius bagi wanita. Memperhatikan tubuh Anda, khususnya leher rahim, Pap smear secara teratur pengujian dan gaya hidup yang sehat adalah semua yang Anda butuhkan untuk memastikan bahwa Anda tidak pernah menderita seperti konsekuensi.

Mouth Cancer
Growth of benign (non-cancerous, benign) and malignant growth (cancer, malignant) can be derived from various networks in and around the mouth, including the bones, muscles and nerves.
Cancer originating from the mouth or the network layer is called surface carcinoma, a cancer that originated from a deeper jariangan called sarkoma.Meskipun rare, cancer is found in the mouth can come from other parts of the body, particularly lung, breast and prostat.Kanker with diameters of less than 1 cm can usually be treated easily.
But most cancers are not diagnosed until the cancer has spread to the lymph nodes jaw and neck.
Since the late discovery of this cancer, then 25% of oral cancers are fatal
CAUSE
Highest risk was found in drinking alcohol and smoking tobacco.
Approximately two-thirds of oral cancers occur in men.
Cigarette smoking are more likely to cause mouth cancer than smoking cigars or through pipes.
Stains smokers (the flat brown spots) can occur on the side where a cigarette or pipe is usually placed on the lips.
With a biopsy, can be known whether these spots are malignant or not.
Repeated irritation due to the sharp edge of broken teeth, fillings or dentures can be an additional risk for cancer of the mouth.
People who have suffered from mouth cancer have a higher risk for other cancers
SYMPTOMS
Most oral cancers occur on the edge of the tongue, floor of the mouth and soft palate (the back of the roof of the mouth).
Cancer of the tongue and floor of the mouth is usually a squamous cell carcinoma.
Kaposi's sarcoma is a cancer of the blood vessels near the skin.
Kaposi's sarcoma is often found in the mouth (usually on the palate) people with AIDS.
In people who chew tobacco and inhalation of tobacco, the inside of the cheeks and lips are often found where cancer.
This cancer is carcinomas verukosa slow growth.
Melanoma is a cancer that usually occurs in the skin, and more rarely occurs in the mouth.
An area in the mouth that turn into brown or darker than normal may be a melanoma and should be sent to the doctor or dentist.
Melanoma should be distinguished from normal areas berpigmentasi found in the mouth, which often occurs in some families, and especially in the Mediterranean people and blacks.
Tongue
In the early stages, tongue cancer did not cause pain and are usually found on routine dental examination.
Cancer usually grows at the edge of the tongue.
Almost never at the base of the tongue except the person who had suffered from untreated syphilis for several years.
Squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue often looks like an open wound (ulcer) and tend to grow into the tissue beneath.
Eritroplakia (red areas in the mouth) is a sign of cancer.
Someone with eritroplakia on the edge of his tongue should immediately went to the doctor or dentist.
Basic Mouth
In the early stages, the cancer floor of the mouth does not cause pain and are usually found on routine dental examination.
Floor of the mouth cancer is usually a squamous cell carcinoma, which looks like an open wound and tend to grow into the structure beneath.
Anyone who has a reddish spots (eritroplakia) at the bottom of his mouth, should immediately see a doctor or dentist because it could be an indication of the existence of cancer.
Soft palate
Cancer in the soft palate can be a squamous cell carcinoma or cancer that begins in the small salivary glands in the soft palate.
Squamous cell carcinoma often looks like an open wound.
Cancer that begins in the small salivary glands usually appear as small swellings.
Mouth coating
If the inner layer of moist mouth (mouth mucosa) become irritated for a long time, can form a flat white patches (leukoplakia).
Tersebit white spots because it is a thickening of the keratin layer, the material covering the outer layer of the skin and in normal circumstances there is in the amount not too much in the mouth mucosa.
Unlike the other white spots in mouth (because of a buildup of food, bacteria or fungi), leukoplakia can not be cleaned.
Most of leukoplakia is a response of protection against further injury.
But in the process of formation of this protective cover, some cells can become malignant.
Conversely, eritroplakia (reddish patches in the mouth) is the result of depletion of mucous membranes.
The area was flushed from the capillaries (small blood vessels) in the bottom more easily visible.
Eritroplakia more a sign of cancer worse than leukoplakia.
Someone with red spots on the mouth should immediately see a doctor or dentist.

Other causes are thrush and irritant substances, such as aspirin which is inhaled in the gums.
Benign ulcer is always painful.
An ulcer that does not feel sick and stayed for more than 10 days may be pre-cancerous or cancerous and should be immediately examined by a doctor or dentist.
In someone who has a habit of chewing tobacco or sucking tobacco, white bumps can occur on the inner cheek.
This lump can develop into carcinoma verukosa.
Gums
One lump or protrusion on the gums is not something that makes us wary.
If the cause is not a periodontal abscess or dental abscesses, may be a non-cancerous growth that is caused by irritation.
Non-cancerous growth is relatively common and, if necessary, usually easily removed through pembdahan.
In 10-40% of patients, non-cancerous growth occurs repeatedly because the irritation continues.
If irritation is causing the false teeth that are less precise location, it must be repaired or replaced.
Lips
Lips (especially the lower lip), is the scene of the damage due to sunlight (keilosis aktinik), so that the lips look chapped and red, white or a mixture of red and white.
To determine whether these spots are malignant or not, can do a biopsy.
Cancer in the outer lip is more common in hot climates.
Cancer on the lips or other parts of the mouth often feels hard like a rock and stuck to the underlying tissues, whereas the non-cancerous lumps in this area can be driven.
Abnormalities in the upper lip is less common than the lower lip, but more likely to be malignant and require medical attention.
In tobacco chewers or exploiters, white lumps can grow inside the mouth.
This lump can grow into verukosa carcinoma.
Saliva Glands
Salivary gland tumors may be benign and malignant.
Tumors can occur in one of the three pairs of major salivary glands:
- Parotid gland (at the edge of the face, in front of the ear)
- Submandibuler glands (under the edge of the jaw)
- Sublingual gland (at the bottom of the mouth, in front of the tongue).
Tumors can also occur in minor salivary glands spread over most of the mouth mucosa.
Growth in the early stages may not be painful.
Malignant tumors tend to grow fast and hard palpable.
Jaw
Various types of non-cancerous cysts cause pain and swelling of the jaw.
These cysts often grow on the side of teeth undergoing wisdom tooth impaksi (stuck in the jaw that can not grow out) and although not malignant, cysts can destroy some jaw bone area.
Certain cyst types tend to be recurrent.
Odontoma a non-cancerous growth of cells forming the teeth that looked like a small tooth with a changed form.
Odontoma can take the place of the normal teething or hinder the normal dentition, so often removed surgically.
Jaw cancer often causes pain and numbness.
X-rays are not always able to distinguish cancer from cysts, bone growth of non-cancer or cancer that has spread from elsewhere in the body.
X-rays usually show an irregular periphery of jaw cancer and may indicate that the cancer has undermined the roots of nearby teeth.
Biopsy performed to confirm the diagnosis of cancer jaw
Diagnosis
TREATMENT
Avoiding sunlight reduces the risk of lip cancer.
Avoiding alcohol and tobacco excess, can prevent almost all oral cancers.
Another prevention is to refine the edge of a broken tooth or a patch.
Anti-oxidant vitamins (vitamins C and E, beta-carotene) providing additional protection.
If the damage due to sunlight on a wide lip area, lip shaving can be done, where the outer layer all over the lip removed, either surgically or with lasers, to prevent the development of cancer.
Successful treatment of cancer of the mouth and lips is very dependent on how far the cancer has developed.
Oral cancers rarely spread to distant areas of the body but tends to infiltrate into the head and neck.
If all the cancer and normal tissue around the cancer removed before the cancer spread to the lymph nodes, the high recovery rate.
If the cancer has spread to the lymph nodes, rare healing.
At surgery, in addition to lifting the cancer in the mouth, also raised the lymph nodes under and behind the jaw and along the neck.
Patients with cancer of the mouth or throat can undergo radiation therapy and surgery or radiation only just.
Radiation therapy often damage the salivary glands and cause a dry mouth sufferers, which can lead to kavitasi (dental caries) and other dental problems.
Jaw bone exposed to radiation which would not heal properly, because it treated dental problems prior to radiation therapy
Teeth that allegedly would cause problems, it should be revoked.
Teeth and mouth hygiene is very important for patients who have undergone radiation therapy for cancer of the mouth.
Profits resulting from chemotherapy is very limited.
The main therapy is surgical and radiation
Cancer originating from the mouth or the network layer is called surface carcinoma, a cancer that originated from a deeper jariangan called sarkoma.Meskipun rare, cancer is found in the mouth can come from other parts of the body, particularly lung, breast and prostat.Kanker with diameters of less than 1 cm can usually be treated easily.
But most cancers are not diagnosed until the cancer has spread to the lymph nodes jaw and neck.
Since the late discovery of this cancer, then 25% of oral cancers are fatal
CAUSE
Highest risk was found in drinking alcohol and smoking tobacco.
Approximately two-thirds of oral cancers occur in men.
Cigarette smoking are more likely to cause mouth cancer than smoking cigars or through pipes.
Stains smokers (the flat brown spots) can occur on the side where a cigarette or pipe is usually placed on the lips.
With a biopsy, can be known whether these spots are malignant or not.
Repeated irritation due to the sharp edge of broken teeth, fillings or dentures can be an additional risk for cancer of the mouth.
People who have suffered from mouth cancer have a higher risk for other cancers
SYMPTOMS
Most oral cancers occur on the edge of the tongue, floor of the mouth and soft palate (the back of the roof of the mouth).
Cancer of the tongue and floor of the mouth is usually a squamous cell carcinoma.
Kaposi's sarcoma is a cancer of the blood vessels near the skin.
Kaposi's sarcoma is often found in the mouth (usually on the palate) people with AIDS.
In people who chew tobacco and inhalation of tobacco, the inside of the cheeks and lips are often found where cancer.
This cancer is carcinomas verukosa slow growth.
Melanoma is a cancer that usually occurs in the skin, and more rarely occurs in the mouth.
An area in the mouth that turn into brown or darker than normal may be a melanoma and should be sent to the doctor or dentist.
Melanoma should be distinguished from normal areas berpigmentasi found in the mouth, which often occurs in some families, and especially in the Mediterranean people and blacks.
Tongue
In the early stages, tongue cancer did not cause pain and are usually found on routine dental examination.
Cancer usually grows at the edge of the tongue.
Almost never at the base of the tongue except the person who had suffered from untreated syphilis for several years.
Squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue often looks like an open wound (ulcer) and tend to grow into the tissue beneath.
Eritroplakia (red areas in the mouth) is a sign of cancer.
Someone with eritroplakia on the edge of his tongue should immediately went to the doctor or dentist.
Basic Mouth
In the early stages, the cancer floor of the mouth does not cause pain and are usually found on routine dental examination.
Floor of the mouth cancer is usually a squamous cell carcinoma, which looks like an open wound and tend to grow into the structure beneath.
Anyone who has a reddish spots (eritroplakia) at the bottom of his mouth, should immediately see a doctor or dentist because it could be an indication of the existence of cancer.
Soft palate
Cancer in the soft palate can be a squamous cell carcinoma or cancer that begins in the small salivary glands in the soft palate.
Squamous cell carcinoma often looks like an open wound.
Cancer that begins in the small salivary glands usually appear as small swellings.
Mouth coating
If the inner layer of moist mouth (mouth mucosa) become irritated for a long time, can form a flat white patches (leukoplakia).
Tersebit white spots because it is a thickening of the keratin layer, the material covering the outer layer of the skin and in normal circumstances there is in the amount not too much in the mouth mucosa.
Unlike the other white spots in mouth (because of a buildup of food, bacteria or fungi), leukoplakia can not be cleaned.
Most of leukoplakia is a response of protection against further injury.
But in the process of formation of this protective cover, some cells can become malignant.
Conversely, eritroplakia (reddish patches in the mouth) is the result of depletion of mucous membranes.
The area was flushed from the capillaries (small blood vessels) in the bottom more easily visible.
Eritroplakia more a sign of cancer worse than leukoplakia.
Someone with red spots on the mouth should immediately see a doctor or dentist.
Ulcer is a hole formed in the mucosa when the top layer of mucosal cells were destroyed and damaged, so the tissue underneath looks.
An ulcer was white because of the cells that die in the pit.
Frequent mouth ulcers due to injury or irritation of the network, for example, if accidental inside of his cheek bitten or scratched.
Other causes are thrush and irritant substances, such as aspirin which is inhaled in the gums.
Benign ulcer is always painful.
An ulcer that does not feel sick and stayed for more than 10 days may be pre-cancerous or cancerous and should be immediately examined by a doctor or dentist.
In someone who has a habit of chewing tobacco or sucking tobacco, white bumps can occur on the inner cheek.
This lump can develop into carcinoma verukosa.
Gums
One lump or protrusion on the gums is not something that makes us wary.
If the cause is not a periodontal abscess or dental abscesses, may be a non-cancerous growth that is caused by irritation.
Non-cancerous growth is relatively common and, if necessary, usually easily removed through pembdahan.
In 10-40% of patients, non-cancerous growth occurs repeatedly because the irritation continues.
If irritation is causing the false teeth that are less precise location, it must be repaired or replaced.

Stroke
Stroke is a condition that occurs when blood supply to a part of the brain was suddenly interrupted. In brain tissue, lack of blood flow causes a series of bio-chemical reactions, which can damage or kill brain cells. The death of brain tissue can cause loss of function that is controlled by the network. Stroke is the third leading cause of death in the United States and many industrialized countries in Europe (Jauch, 2005). If you can be saved, sometimes the patient experienced paralysis in his limbs, loss of memory or verbal skills. To underline the seriousness of this stroke, recent years have been increasingly popular term brain attack. This term is in keeping with the terms already known, "heart attack". stroke occurs due to blocked blood vessels branch by embolism. embolism can be a cholesterol or may be air
Stroke was divided into two types of ischemic stroke and stroke hemorragik. In ischemic stroke, blood flow to the brain stops because atherosclerosis (cholesterol buildup in blood vessel walls) or a blood clot that has clogged the blood vessels to the brain. Most of the patients or 83% experienced this type of stroke.
In hemorragik stroke, broken blood vessels that block normal blood flow and blood seeped into an area in the brain and damage it. Nearly 70 percent of cases of Acute hemorrhagic stroke occurs in hypertension.
In ischemic stroke, blockage can occur along the arterial route leading to the brain. Blood to the brain is supplied by two arteria the internal carotid and two vertebral arteries. These arteries are branches of the aortic arch heart.
An atheroma (fatty deposits) may form in the carotid arteries causing reduced blood flow. This situation is very serious because each carotid artery normally provides blood to most of the brain. Fat deposition could also separated from the artery walls and flows in the blood, clogging arteries and smaller.
Carotid arteries and the vertebral artery and its ramifications could be blocked due to blood clots that come from elsewhere, such as the heart or a valve. This kind of stroke called a cerebral embolism (embolism = occlusion, cerebral blood vessels of the brain =) The most frequently occurs in patients who had heart surgery and people with heart valve abnormalities or heart rhythm disturbances (especially atrial fibrillation).
Fat emboli rarely cause stroke. Fat emboli formed when fat from a broken bone marrow released into the bloodstream and eventually joined in an artery.
Stroke can also occur when an infection causes inflammation or narrowing of blood vessels leading to the brain. The drugs (eg cocaine and amphetamines) can also narrow the blood vessels in the brain and cause stroke.
Blood pressure drops suddenly can cause reduced blood flow to the brain, which usually causes a person to faint. Stroke can occur if the low blood pressure is very heavy and chronic. This happens if one gets a lot of blood loss due to injury or surgery, heart attack or abnormal heart rhythms.

Coronary Heart Disease
This disease is usually experienced by people berusian productive and sudden attacks to cause death.
A. The symptoms of coronary heart disease
1. Chest pain and pressure
2. Prolonged headaches
3. Feeling her body on fire for no apparent reason
4. Complaint occurred around the chest and neck bones
5. But most people who suffer from coronary heart disease do not experience some of the symptoms above. All of a sudden heart trouble and the person in chronic conditions.
B. Causes of Coronary Heart
The disease is caused by the narrowing and blockages in coronary arteries. This is caused by the buildup of fatty substances (cholesterol, triglycerides) in the artery wall bottom (endothelium).
After the fat accumulated, blood flow will be blocked and unable to affect the heart so the heart in pumping blood. Most felt the effect was the loss of oxygen and nutrients to the heart because blood flow to the heart decreases.
C. The things that trigger coronary heart disease:
1. Smoking in greater numbers and for many years
2. Consumption of fatty foods or high cholesterol
3. Hypertension who has suffered
4. Diabetes mellitus is also provoke coronary heart disease
5. Obesity
6. Lack of activity and exercise
7. Drink alcohol
8. Drug abuse (drug)
D. The facts about coronary heart disease
1. Coronary heart disease is the number one killer disease in the United States who attacked both men and women
2. Every year in the U.S., more than half a million people died of coronary heart disease
3. Deaths from coronary heart disease can be prevented because it related to lifestyle. If the public good and ensure a healthy life free of coronary heart disease
4. Treatment for patients with coronary heart disease takes a very long time and continuous.
E. Prevention of Coronary Heart Disease
1. Balanced lifestyle and avoid the risk of stress is necessary for a person not affected by coronary heart disease.
2. Eating healthy foods and high in fiber. Reduce fatty foods and high cholesterol to prevent obesity.
3. Immediately stop smoking. Smoking causes reduced elasticity of blood vessels thus increasing the hardening of blood vessels that trigger stroke arterin.
4. Reduce or avoid alcoholic beverages
5. Regular exercise
6. Avoid using drugs
F. Tests to determine whether a person has coronary heart disease
There is no definitive measure to determine coronary heart disease. But following several types of tests can provide a picture if someone is suffering from coronary heart disease
1. Electrocardiogram
2. Stress test
3. Nuclear scanning
4. Coronary angigraphy
G. Some plant species that can prevent and deal with coronary heart disease:
1. God corolla
2. Noni
3. Garlic
4. Black ear BaJamur
5. RBunga roses
6. Siantan

Carbon Monoxide
Carbon monoxide, chemical formula CO, is a colorless gas, odorless, and tasteless. It consists of one carbon atom is covalently bonded to one oxygen atom. In this bond, there are two covalent bonds and a coordinate covalent bond between carbon and oxygen atoms.
Carbon monoxide is produced from incomplete combustion of carbon compounds, often occurs in internal combustion engines. Carbon monoxide is formed when there is lack of oxygen in the combustion process. Carbon dioxide is flammable and produces a blue flame, producing carbon dioxide. Although he is a poison, CO plays an important role in modern technology, which is the precursor of many carbon compounds.
Carbon monoxide is a very important compound, so many methods have been developed for production. [1]
Producer gas formed by burning carbon in oxygen at high temperatures when there is excess carbon. In an oven, the air flow through the coke. The first CO2 produced will have an equilibrium with the hot carbon, producing CO. O2 reaction with carbon to form CO called Boudouard equilibrium. Above 800 ° C, CO is the predominant product:
O2 + 2 C → 2 CO
ΔH = -221 kJ / mol
The disadvantage of this method is if done with air, he would leave the mixture consisting of nitrogen.
Synthetic gas or water gas is produced via the endothermic reaction of water vapor and carbon:
H2O + C → H2 + CO
ΔH = 131 kJ / mol
CO is also a byproduct of the reduction of metal oxide ores with carbon:
MO + C → M + CO
ΔH = 131 kJ / mol
Because CO is a gas, the reduction process can be accelerated by heating. Ellingham diagram shows that CO formation is favored than CO2 at high temperatures.
CO is the anhydride of formic acid. Therefore, it is practical to produce CO from formic acid dehydration. Production of CO in other laboratory scale by heating a mixture of zinc powder and calcium carbonate.
Zn + ZnO + CaCO3 → CaO + CO
Another laboratory method is by reacting sucrose with sodium hydroxide in a closed system.

Heart Rate
Adult heart in one minute is usually beats 70 times. If we stick our chest stethoscope to the left then we will listen to our own heartbeat. The sound is the sound of heart beats when the heart valves closing. Heart valve-shaped tissue is strong and thin layer attached to the heart muscle. The number of human heart valves have 4 pieces.
If your heart rate less than 40 but you are in good health, then you likely have a big heart can pump blood more than normal people who often found in sports athletes.

Stop Smoking Benefits
1. 20 minutes after quitting smoking, the number of heart rate you will decrease.
2. 12 hours after quitting smoking, pregnancy or chemical levels of carbon monoxide in the blood will be decreased to normal levels into.
3. 2 weeks - 3 months after quitting smoking, began to decrease the risk of heart and lung function begins to improve.
4. 1 to 9 months after quitting smoking you will experience a decrease in cough and shortness of breath.
5. 1 year after quitting smoking, increase the risk of coronary heart disease is half of that possessed by the smoker.
6. 5 years after quitting smoking, the risk of stroke disease is reduced by a nonsmokers 5-15 years after quitting smoking.
7. 10 years after quitting smoking, death rates for lung cancer at yourself in half of the smokers., Decreasing the risk of mouth cancer, esophageal cancer (esophagus), neck cancer, bladder (bladder), kidney and pancreas.
8. 15 years after quitting smoking, the risk of coronary heart disease return to normal until such risk is a non-smoker.
For more certainty, compare yourself with a cigarette addicts ... ... ..
1. Reduced risk of stroke up to like a man who never smoked after 5 - 15 years not smoking.
2. Mouth cancer, esophageal cancer (esophagus), cervical cancer in half after 5 years of quitting smoking.
3. The reduced risk of cancer in the larynx after quitting smoking.
4. The reduced risk of death from lung disease due to chronic occlusion (Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) after cessation decreases the risk of lung cancer by as much as half 10 years after quitting smoking.
5. Risk of ulceration / ulcers in the lungs decreases.
6. Risk of bladder cancer decreased.
7. The decline in peripheral arterial disease in (the bank) after quitting smoking.
8. Decreased risk of cervical cancer after quitting smoking.
9. Risk of birth with low body weight decreased to normal even if you quit smoking before pregnancy or while still in the first trimester of pregnancy.

Channel epithelium malfunction Breath Causes Allergies
Research on the mechanisms of allergy has focused on understanding the imunorespon abnormalities, but several recent new developments realized that the role of the epithelium as the first defense system against allergies started to realize. However, so far not known why and how the allergy is transported through the epithelium. Due to the above, two groups of researchers from the Finnish team reported that one possibility for the development of allergies caused by the malfunction (interference function) respiratory epithelium that allows allergy bound, signed and then browse the epithelium.Group of researchers from Helsinki University and Helsinki University Central Hospital in collaboration with Findlandia research group, conducted a study to clarify what happened to ygn epithelium, immediately after exposure to allergens and before the onset of allergic reactions.
The research team is using the exposure to pollen allergens (pollen pollen (birch (Bet v1) and show that these allergens are bound, in and browse through the conjunctiva and the nasal epithelium of patients within 1 minute after exposure, but this does not occur in healthy subjects .
In this study more clearly seen that during the spring, in patients allergic, pollen allergens were hundreds of genes changed expression in nasal epithelium, compared to samples taken in winter. Some of these genes associated with transport and regulatory proteins Cytoskeleton. An amazing discovery is that the immune response in healthy control group on exposure to pollen allergens is a strong character and hundreds of genes changed expression during the winter and spring. However, most of these genes associated with immune response functions.
Professor Risto Renkonen who led the study stated that they were not able to explain the mechanism of how the birch pollen allergen bet v1 browse through the epithelium in allergic patients, but not in subjects healthy.
Such transport mechanisms are also used by a variety of bakery and virus attacks when merke epithelium and infect the patient.
In this study used a systematic approach to biological and acquired data simultaneously through a variety of different methods and included in the massive data stored to allow analysis of the role of various proteins and tissues in the pathogenesis of allergic reactions.
Reductionistic analysis, such as those focused only on one or a few molecules gradually replaced by a systematic approach. The ability to find new mechanisms relevant etiologik, is the main motivation for exploration without bias.
Experimental losses are the top-down is that this method requires very expensive, However the yield more than the raw data-based approach to generate hypotheses that can be very much data.

Cervical Cancer
Heredity is the desire of each family. But often we blame other factors are the cause, for example: The husband is often out of pocket, tired body condition due to work every day, sperm or eggs are not fertile, and so forth.
If we go back to 25 or 30 years ago, we rarely hear of women who had cancer of the cervix (neck of the uterus) or breast cancer or disease that horrible disease other women.
Earlier times women did not know the pads. They use a cloth or small towel when they were having menstrual periods. Nowadays, no modern woman who does not know any pads.
Did you know, in Indonesia, Thailand, Philippines, Vietnam and developing countries more, the producers use paper or sawdust used in the recycling of used materials for dressings. They also use bleaching (bleach) to whiten the materials.
Whereas in bleaching materials that contain dioxin are very dangerous and can cause various diseases such as cancer Uterus, Breast Cancer, Cysts, Myom and many others.
Outside the country (developed countries) while the dressings are produced from cotton (not from the material used), they (producers) shall include on the packaging that is free of Sanitary Chlorin. Unfortunately this has not become an obligation for producers in developing countries.
So after a long usage (teen years) before the women feel the diseases. Starting from the whitish, yellowish, the difficulty of getting descent, cyst, Myom, even a deadly cancer.
I urge the young mothers, realize your health. Keep your crown. Because what good is a pretty face, out of money for hundreds of thousands of faces, but ignored the Crown health

Keeping Ears To Stay Healthy
Because not know, we often clean the ears of children at random. In fact, as described Prof. Dr. Noerbaiti from the ENT, RS Pondok Indah Jakarta, ears have parts that must be treated very carefully.
Outer ear consists of ear drum to the membrane. The middle ear consists of the drum membrane to limit the brain, and consists of the inner ear hearing devices and equipment balance. In this outer ear together the oil glands and sweat glands. Ears like the grime dirt that often appear in this area of oil actually produced these glands. Function block animals, like insects trying to enter into the ear.
Ear dirt will come out by itself thanks to encouragement mechanism when the child's cheek muscles to chew food. Estuary of the dirt that is earlobe, so we do not need to risk stirring up a child's ear to the middle and deep. "Just looking at the eye alone," said Noerbaiti.
EAR DISEASE
One of the habits of what we often do is to scrape the inside of his ears with cotton buds or "metal" which ends concave like a spoon. According Noerbaiti, "Liang inner ear may only be cleaned with special instruments that can play and be done by experts. The use of cotton buds instead pushing the dirt further into the ear into the back."
Discharge, he continued, it was trapped in the form of hollow ear hole like the letter S. As a result, the dirt can not get out himself and the sediment in the ear canal will be hardened and petrified.
On the other hand, we also recognize the disease called congek ear. Symptoms, from the ear, precisely from the membrane is perforated eardrum, fluid out. "The hole could be caused by anything. Usually due to various complications from the nose and throat."
In between the ears, nose, and throat, explained Noerbaiti, there is a channel that connects all three. Channel that connects the nose to the ear serves to keep the air pressure in the middle ear to be equal to the outer ear. When children got the flu or a cold, the channel that connects the ear and nose may be blocked, causing a runny nose fluid pain. In addition, the blockage causes the air pressure difference in the middle ear and the outside.
Like a well, this pressure difference will form a vacuum that can "pump" fluid out through the ears snot. "This is called congek. At first that came out only clear liquids only, but for long thickened, pus, and smell."
