Is Stress Bad for You?

Chronic stress depresses the immune system and increases the risk of several types of illnesses. It raises the level of hormones called catecholamines. Being stressed out leads to increased levels of suppressor T cells, which suppress the immune system. When this branch of the immune system is impaired, you are more susceptible to viral illnesses including respiratory conditions like colds and flu. Stress leads to the release of histamine, a molecule involved in allergies. Combat stress with strategies like deep breathing, meditation, exercise, and relaxation.

"We have to listen with love to Our body's Messages".


I listen and realise my body's message. Are you do this?.

 You believed or not all of us create every  so - called illness in our body. The body, like everything else in life, is a mirror of our inner thoughts and beliefs. The body is always talking to us, if we will only take the time to listen. Every cell within our body responds  to every single thought we thinking and every word we speak.

   Continuous modes of thinking and speaking produce body behaviors and postures and "eases" or de - ease. The person who has a permanently scowling face did not produce that by having joyous, living thoughts. Older people's faces and bodies show so clearly a life time of thinking patterns. How will you look when you are elderly?.

   Here is few example of probable Mental Patterns that create illnesses in the body as well as the New Thought Patterns or Affirmations to be used to creat health.

     1) The Ears
                Represent  the capacity  to hear. When there are problems with the ears, it usually means something is going on you do not want to heare. An earache would indicate that there is anger about what is heard.
      Earaches are common with children. They often have to listen to stuff going on in the household they really don't want to hear. Household rules often forbid a child's expression of anger, and thebchild's inability to change things creates an earache.
   Deafness represents longstanding refusal to listen to someone. Notiethat when one partner has a hearing impairment, the other partner often talks and talks and talks.

      2) HEADACHES 
 Come from invalidating the self. The next time you get a headache, stop and ask yourself where and how you have just made yourself worng. Forgive yourself, let it go, and the headache will dissolve back into the nothingness from where it came.

    Migraine headache are created by people who want to be perfect and who create a lot of pressure on themselves. A lot of suppressed anger is involved. Interestingly, migraine headaches can almost always be alleviated by masturbation if you do it as soon as you feel a migraine coming on. The sexual release dissolves the tension and the pain. You may not feel like masturbating then, but it certainly is worth a try. You can't lose.

Anorexia Nervosa. !!!

The self-starvation that is a hallmark of anorexia nervosa is caused by a complex psychiatric disorder.

It is estimated to occur in approximately 0.5% of Australians and New Zealanders, mostly adolescent girls or young women.  

(Only about 10 per cent of people with anorexia are males; they are often weight-conscious adolescent boys who are dancers or athletes.)
  The cause of anorexia nervosa --
A medical term for a relentless pursuit of extreme thinness and refusal to eat so as to maintain normal weight ---is unknown. Researchers belive that a combination of hormonal, social and psychological factors are responsible. The disease often begins in adolescence, a time of hormonal and psychological change. Convinced that she is too fat, regardless of how much she actually weight, a girl beings obsessive dieting. Some girls adopt a very restricted diet while others become overly preoccupied with food, often planning and preparing elaborate meals that they then refuse to eat. When the girl with anorexia does eat, she may resort afterwards to selfimduced vomiting or laxative abuse to avoid gaining weight. Many also exercise obsessively.

  Take note of telltale signs. --
   
   As the disease progresses, menstruation ceases and nutritional deficiencies develop. Many girls with anorexia try to hide their thinness by wearing oversized clothes; physical indications of anorexia include fatigue, nervousness or hypersctivity, dry skin, hair loss and intolerance to cold. More serious consequences include cardiac arrhyrhmias, loss of bone mass, kidney failure and in about 6 per cent of cases, death.

CONSUME --

• A Variety of nutritious foods in small amounts.
•  High-protein liquid supplements and   multivitamin  supplements, if approved by   a doctor or dietitian.

AVOID --

•    Diet soft drinks and low-kilojoule or low-fat diet foods.
• Appetite suppressants, diuretics and laxatives.

C  A  U  T  I  O  N : -

 Younger women are particularly vulnerable to eating disorders like anorexia nervosa, a serious, often chronic and life-threatening condition. Although the term 'anorexia ' literally means loss of appetite, people with anorexia nervosa actually ignore hunger and deliberately control their desire tobeat.

   Constant obsessive dieting may result in severe anorexia and sufferers may be at risk of death from starvation.

   Should someone you know exhibit the following warning signs, contact a doctor knowledgeable about eating disorders immediately.

• Preoccupation with food
• Distorted body image, thinking they are fat when they are actually bone-thin
• Intense fear of gaining weight
• Refusal to eat
• Deliberate self-starvation
• Denial of hunger
• Obsessive exercise
• Loss of scalp hair
• Brittle nails and hair
• Constant complaining about feeling cold (due to low body temperature) 
• A fine layer of hair on the body or face (like on a newborn baby)
• Depression
• Irregular or absent periods.

Alcohol protects the brain---? Is this posdible???

Alcohol protects the brain --

But howmuch--?

Several studies report that people who imbibe moderately daily are about 70 per cent less likely than nondrinkers to develop dementia,an age-related decline in mental ability ; they are also more than 30 per cent less likely to develop Alzheimers disease. Alcohol seems to offer a number of brain-related benefits. It thins the blood and helps prevent clots from jamming tiny blood vessels in the brain ; and it seems to stimulate the release of acetylcholine, a brain chemical involved in learning and memory.
However, you should consume no more than two drinks daily. Alcohol s protective effects are indeed impressive,

     But studies show that overconsumption maysignificantly raise the risk of developing a number of health problems, ---

High blood pressure, Cardiac arrhuthmias, liver disease, stroke, dementia and several kinds of cancer, including liver, pancrras, oesophagus and mouth.

What causes a hangover?

Overconsumption of alcohol invariably  results in a hangover ; just how much alcohol is necessary to produce a hangover depends  on the biochemical individuality of the consumer, and the type of drink consumed. Distilled liquors, such as whisky and gin, have a more immediate impact than wines or beers, and all alcohol is absorbed more quickly  when mixed with a carbonated beverage. Once in the bloodstream, alcohol reaches the brain  in minutes. At first it acts as a stimulant, producing euphoria. This soon gives way to central nervous system depression and feelings of nubmness, and then finally to sleep or unconsciousness. A rapid ingestion of a large amount  of alcohol can be fatal. The severity of a hangover is partially influenced by congeners, which are the by-products of the fermentation process that contribute to the taste and aroma of an alcoholiic beverage. The more congeners in a drink, the more severe a hangover may be. Brandy has the greatest number of congeners, followed by red wine, rum, whisky, whote wine, gin and vodka.

ALcohol

What is alcohol?

Ethyl alcohol (ethanol), which is the main active ingredient of alcoholic beverages, is made by the yeast fermentation of starch or sugar.Almost any sweet or starchy food - potatoes, grains,  honey, grapes and other fruit, even dandelions - can be turned  into alcohol.

Unlike most foods, alcohol is not digested; 95 per cent of it is absorbed into the bloodstream from the stomach and small intestine within an hour. (The other 5 per cent is eliminated through the kidneys, lungs or skin) The liver breaks  down, or metabolises, alcohol ; the time this takes depends upon whether the alcohol is ingested  with food and upon the persons sex, weight, body type and tolerance level, which  increases with and use. On average,  however, it takes the liver 3 to 5 hours to completely metabolise 30 ml of alcohol. 

BENEFITS 

• Moderate consumption cuts the risk of heart  attack by rising HDL Cholesterol and reducing the risk of blood clot formation.
• May protect the brail against age-related dementia.
• In small amounts, it can aid digestion and improve appetite.

May foster a happy mood.

DRAWBACK

• Can provoke mood swings, aggression and hangovers. Can be addictive.
• Interacts with many medications.

Over time, moderate to high intake increases the risk of cancers, ad well as heart and liver disease. 

Liver cancer due to exceive drinks.

Hangover due to over drinking.
