"Antiperspirant" Not Cause Breast Cancer

So far, some argue, is it true that contain
antiperspirant deodorant
(antikeringat) to cause breast
cancer. Experts who support this
opinion, based on research in the
1990s that mention the plural aluminum compounds found in
deodorants, can cause DNA
damage that ultimately lead to
breast cancer. But there are also experts who
disagree, such as Dr Chris
Flower, Director General
Association of Cosmetics and
Perfumes, England. He said the
link between deodorant and antiperspirant with cancer is not
unreasonable. This substance has
been widely used for more than
50 years, not only on deodorant
products only. The data show,
these compounds are safe to use. Conflicting information is
certainly confuse you. However,
recently the American Cancer
Society states no longer wish to
extend these rumors. There are
five statements that they spend on antiperspirant product, that
is not true that: 1. Antiperspirants increase the
risk of breast cancer.
2. Applying antiperspirants
immediately after shaving
underarm hair makes chemicals
more easily enter the body, and increase the risk of breast
cancer.
3. Content of parabens in
antiperspirants cause disease.
4. Antiperspirants prevent
cancer-causing toxins out through the lymph nodes, so
that the toxins accumulate in
breast tissue.
5. Men tend not to be affected
by breast cancer as a deodorant
ingredient is usually stuck in their armpits, so it is not
absorbed by the skin. American Cancer Society also
includes a number of studies to
support this assertion.

Fed babies with breast milk, Babies Higher IQs

Adding a row of evidence about the benefits
of Air Susu Ibu (ASI), a most
comprehensive study in the UK
mentioned that babies who
receive breast milk will have a
brilliant brain and continue to survive until they are in junior
high school. A study of more than 10,000
children in the Bristol area to
find those who are breastfed
exclusively at least the first
five weeks of his life mostly
have higher IQ scores. All the children in this study
are those who have the same
aspect of his life, such as the
condition of the family and
their mother's IQ. The
researchers tried to "pair" the kids. What distinguishes one
thing only, and are not
breastfed. Then the researchers tried to
see the results arising from
these differences. Maria
lacovou, researchers from the
Institute for Social and
Economic Research, Essex, England, said that breastfed
babies have an IQ score
between 3-5 points higher. Conclusions are made based on
research that follows the lives
leblih than 14,000 women who
give birth in 1991 and 1992.
Their IQ scores measured at
ages 5, 7, 11 and 14 years. "We were not surprised when
the effect fades with age, but
it did not. Infants who are
breastfed her brain remains
bright," he said. Long chain fatty acid content
in milk, menuerut lacovous will
Formatting brain development.
Another benefit is the bonding
or emotional closeness
between mother and child. Another study states that
breastfed babies get sick less
often so this may affect their
intelligence.

Pill Make Women jealousy

birth control pills, if taken as directed, quite
effectively used as a tool for
planning a pregnancy. However,
sex hormones in birth control
can make women become more
possessive and jealous, due to high estrogen levels. The researchers said that
combining brands of
contraceptive pills, especially the
pill which has the highest
estrogen levels, can disrupt
female hormone that triggers suspicions are fueled by emotion.
If allowed, this is certainly going
to disrupt the relationship of
women and spouses. "It seems that women, and the
possibility of the provider
pharmacy, not really careful with
a range of psychological side
effects associated with pill use,
and in particular, about the choice of the brand," said Dr.
Craig Roberts, from Stirling
University, Scotland. Roberts doing research with the
Dutch psychologist to examine
275 women aged 17-35 years
who took the contraceptive pill.
There was a series of questions
designed to measure the level of trust between the women's self
with their partner. After comparing their answers
following contraceptive brand
choices these women consumed,
the research team found a clear
relationship between levels of
estrogen in the drugs and jealousy. On the other hand,
progesterone, did not result in
jealousy, because the pills
contain only progesterone was
not so confusing emotions of
women who eat them. From these tests, the
researchers also concluded that
women who use the brands with
the highest estrogen dose would
be more difficult to establish and
maintain relationships with their partner. The study, published in
the journal Personality and
Individual Differences is
supported by several previous
studies, which says that the
contraceptive pill can affect the way we choose a partner. In a study conducted Liverpool
University, said that women
taking birth control pills tend to
be interested in looking men
childish. This finding indicates
growing evidence that the hormones in birth control pills
affect the way women assess
male sexual attractiveness.

3 Personality of Children and How to deal with

Children aged 2-5 years have the ability to
communicate is still minimal and
unique temperament, most
explosive, most egocentric, and
so forth. "No wonder so many
parents who can not wait for his big fast and hard through the
ages that are sometimes also
funny that," said Lara Zibners,
author of If Your Kid Eats This
Book, Everything Will Still Be
Okay.

But parents who undergo this
period can try to deal with her
children in a way to track the
main personality of the child.
"Because of temperament to
explain why some of us can sleep in front of the television lights,
some can not sleep with any
noise, or why some people can
forgive easily and some are hard
to forget the mistakes of
others. Knowing the temperament of the child help
you when to treat, when to
push, "said Harvey Karp, MD, a
pediatrician at once the author
of The happiest Toddler on the
Block.

Experts agree, at least there
are 3 main personalities of
children; easy or happy, shy or
warm, and very excited. Easily type or Happiness According to Karp, the majority
of the children is the type of
easygoing, cheerful, and ready
to face the new day. This type is
an active child, and can adapt to
change, basically like a new person and situation is different.
This type is not ill-tempered, but
not coercive. However, this type
is very easy to neglect because
of his attitude that it is not
coercive. He was sometimes able to spend much time in front of
the television alone because no
one who accompanies, or not
getting enough time with their
parents because they are too
busy dealing with other children. Make sure the type of kids like
this are not neglected. Shy Type About 15 percent of children are
shy and slow to start something,
so the opinion of the experts. At
age 9 months, easygoing type of
child who will be able to smile at
strangers, but will shy type frowned and hugged caregivers,
may only be waving "bye-bye"
after the men went. The experts
say, children with this type have
a feeling that ekstrasensitif on
various things, ranging from the type of clothing worn want to
room temperature. This type of
child like this takes time of
transition from one activity to
another and not easy to deal
with change. The possibility also, kind of kid
like this will slowly begin the road
and will be watching the game
from a distance before finally
starting to come into play with
their peers. Moto child like this is, if in doubt, better not. Please
note by parents whose children
shy type, they are a very gentle
child, and the minimum as may
face criticism or made fun of,
because such a refusal to make children feel scared and
vulnerable shy throughout his
life. What's more, parents should
make sure the child has the
stability and time to process
something. They can not be forced or rushed when doing
something. Eager type (Wild) About 1 in 10 children is the
type of strong-willed, and likes a
challenge. This type has a sense
of fun which is very high and low
self-esteem is very deep. The
parents can assess a child like this in a way to assess
personality "more" of the child,
such as, more active, more
movement, more impulsive, more
daring, more sensitive, harder,
and more. One recommendation for parents who have children
have personality like this is to
keep it active. Let them play
outside and play as often as
possible. These kids need to burn
energy and move to meet their mood. This type is also a clear
need structure to keep them
stable and secure, and extra
patience.

Two out of five Indonesian people at risk
of osteoporosis. This happens
because most Indonesian
women lack calcium 50 percent
each day. Than 1,000 milligrams
of daily calcium requirement, most Indonesian women
consume only 270-500
milligrams of calcium every day.
Similarly, findings from
TROPMED SEAMEO Regional
Center for Community Nutrition, University of
Indonesia, and the University
of Otago, New Zealand. Bone mass reaches its peak at
age 25-30 years. After that
will be a decline in bone mass
dramatically. Actually, as long
as it also would have
regenerated bone. However, if you do not get enough calcium
intake, this regeneration will
not happen balanced. That's
when the risk of osteoporosis
increases. The condition of bone loss is
also not only occur in the
elderly, you know. Young
people today are also at risk
of contracting this disease,
due to a less healthy lifestyle. You will not like this condition,
because osteoporosis causes
the body bent, broken bones,
and reduction in height. "When the bone is porous,
while the compression occurs
in the vertebrae, the bones
could finally flattened. That's
what ultimately makes height
is reduced," said Dr. Tria Rosemiarti, Medical & PR

8 Signs You're Healthy!

When going to the hospital, the doctor will
usually issue a measuring
instrument. Start of measuring
blood pressure, heart rate,
until the sugar content. Under
certain conditions, doctors also often determine the health of
a person through various
tests in the laboratory. Basically there are a number
or a benchmark that we have
to remember in health affairs.
That is, we must know how
many numbers of normal blood
pressure or cholesterol levels. By knowing these figures, we
can take care of myself so no
need to suffer the
consequences of excessive and
far from pleasant. According to
experts, at least you need to get this important figure eight.
Please read and kept in mind
always! 1. Blood pressure: 120/80 According to Dr. Arthur Tan, a
heart specialist from
Gleneagles Hospital, high blood
potentially become the number
one killer in the world in 2020.
High blood often strikes without symptoms. Therefore,
routine blood pressure checks
obligatory. Do it once a month
with a personal digital
measuring devices, or two
times a year by a doctor. Make sure the blood pressure
less than 120/80 mmHg. "At
least 10 above or below
120/80. More or less than that
require medical treatment,
"said Dr. Ristanto Spb Wiwin, the surgeon and femininity
Oncology Hospital Surabaya. 2. Cholesterol: 2 to 1 According to Dr. John
Chandrawinata, MND, SpGK,
clinical nutrition specialist from
the hospital Melinda Bandung,
if your total cholesterol level
above 200 mg / dL, it is called high. Is normal if less than 200
mg / dL. By calculation, LDL
(bad cholesterol) below 100
mg / dL and HDL (good
cholesterol) above 45 mg / dL. In short, the ratio between
LDL and HDL is 2:1. The higher
levels of HDL, the higher the
protection against coronary
heart disease. 3. Waist circumference: less than 80 cm For adult women, waist size
should be no more than 80 cm.
If on top of that, it means
there is a pile under the belly
fat that is not necessary, and
make us overweight. There are two types of fat
accumulation in the abdominal
area: under the skin and in
organs. "What is dangerous is
the second type because it
can increase the risk of type 2 diabetes, hypertension, fatty
liver, stroke and coronary
heart disease," said Dr. John. 4. Inflammation: under 10,000 Inflammation occurs in our
body during inflammation. We
can determine the level of
inflammation of the body by
measuring levels of C-reactive
protein (CRP), produced by the liver and is part of the body's
defense system. According to Dr. Wiwin, CRP,
normal is under 10,000. This
means we get the risk of
heart problems low. The level
of inflammation over 15 000
should be treated and look for the source because there may
be a hidden disease. For
example, immune system
disorders. 5. Vitamin D: a minimum of 30 Vitamin D deficiency may
increase the risk of liver
disorders, multiple sclerosis,
immune disorders, and
osteoporosis. Risk of
osteoporosis is determined by lifestyle, gender, and age.
Women more prone to bone
fragility than men. The risk
increases when entering the
age of menopause. We can prevent osteoporosis
with calcium saving early. In
order for maximum absorption
of calcium, our bodies need
vitamin D. So the info from the
National Institutes of Health. To find out how our levels of
vitamin D, do the blood test.
Levels of vitamin D per day is
recommended for more than
30. 6. Blood sugar: less than 140 The Western Pacific Declaration
on Diabetes mention, diabetes
mellitus (non-derived) is
infecting adolescents and
children. The main factor is
obesity. The more fat tissue (especially in the abdomen),
and muscle cells more resistant
to insulin. In other words,
obesity may inhibit insulin, so
blood sugar rises. So, we must always keep blood
sugar levels remain normal. Still
according to Dr. John, high or
low blood sugar levels
depending on the condition of
our present review. Normal blood sugar levels after
fasting for 6-8 hours, is
70-100 mg / dL, while blood
glucose levels 2 hours after
eating a normal is below 140
mg / dL. 7. Bone density: -2.5 To find out how solid our
bones, perform a bone density
test or bone mass density
(BMD). Dr. Michael Triangto,
SPOK, from Slim + Health
Sports Therapy said that the restriction of osteoporosis is a
T-score of -2.5. If the value is
more than -2.5, meaning
including osteoporosis. If not, it
means osteopenia (before
getting osteoporosis.) Bone density test is recommended
for menopausal women, had a
broken bone, had a family
history of osteoporosis, and
abnormal spinal structure. 8. Resting heart rate: 60-80 Healthy or not our physical
condition can also be marked
with the heart rate at rest
(resting heart rate). The best
measure resting heart rate is
when just woken up. How, press the pulse at the
wrist or the neck below the
jaw with the index finger.
Count the pulse for 15
seconds, then multiply the
result 4. Dr said Wiwin, normal resting heart rate for adult
women is 60-80 per minute. If
a person's resting heart rate
exceeds the limit, means the
heart works too hard so more
at risk of heart attack or stroke.

7 Ways Simple Personal Health Monitor

Then thank the perceived problems of our body,
the body will actually speak to
us. However, we are sometimes
less sensitive when the body
complained of pain. To
understand the body language of complaint, we must first be
able to understand how to
monitor the health without
needing the help of a doctor. This is what can we do to
prevent and catch many
problems early on in the body,
making its handling easier. 1. Observe the pattern of consumption, exercise,
relaxation, and fiber every
morning. How? Make sure every day we eat vegetables
and fruit, this is a way of
monitoring consumption. Then for
the monitoring exercise should

keeps the body active. Even walking up and down stairs or
even counted as an opportunity
to move your body active. For relaxation, we must ensure

yourself every day. No need to
assemble a complex activity, if
the pleasure of listening or
powerful enough to sing discard tired, then do it! As for the

have enjoyed the best sleep
quality. First, we may need help
waking up without an alarm.
Second, during the afternoon we
still excellent stamina without excessive sleepiness attacks.
Third, after dinner we did not
feel sleepy. But if all this we feel
but still feel lethargic and lack of
stamina, it's good to see her
doctor sleep specialist. 3. How about the color of our urine? Believe me, the urine can be a clue there is a
problem in the body. If your body
healthy with enough fluids, then
the color of urine should be
clear. But if it is dark yellow and
smelly, it means your body is dehydrated. And if the color is
bright yellow, then we are
deficient in vitamin B. 4. Calculate your heart rate every time after
exercising. Journal of the American Medical Association
announced, women weak
heartbeat after exercise, risk of
heart attack the next 10 years.
How to calculate, before
exercising count our heartbeat for 15 minutes. Then finished
exercising, the number of
previous heart rate multiplied by

check the heart rhythm. 5. Fixed height measuring body, although we've aged
50 +. This is done by women is important to know whether
there is change in posture and

usually, bone disorders seen
from posture changed
dramatically. If we find from the beginning of the bone problems
can be overcome, including shy
away from bone loss. 6. Every 6 months, check our blood pressure. When this started many pharmacies
that provide blood pressure
testing facilities. Take advantage
of this to simply make sure that
our blood pressure is fine. The
definition of good is if the systolic pressure is not more
than 120, and pressure
diastoliknya not more than 80. If
you find that the figure is above
or below the reference, check
the next day, if it does not show significant change that means we
should see a doctor. 7. Do not forget to do breast self examination
(Realize) after each
menstrual period. Be aware of the simple steps to detect
early breast cancer hazard. At
least 15 percent of cases of
breast cancer is found at an
early stage thanks to Realize.
