Why do women live longer?

Yes, this is a statistically proven fact: Women's average life expectancy is 74 years and 2 months, men's is 69 years and 8 months. But still, why? The main reason is genes🧬 Even male embryos die more often than female embryos. The X chromosomes (of which women have two and men have one) are much larger and contain more vital genes. The Y chromosomes (which only males have) have fewer of these genes.  Therefore, the occurrence of problems in the X-chromosome has greater consequences for men than for women☝🏻. After all, they have a "spare" X chromosome. It is this reserve that gives women that very advantage.  Besides, we should not forget about peculiarities of men's lifestyle and occupation.

More than 90% of diseases are related to failure to properly cleanse the intestines

Many people do not even realize that about 90% of diseases and weight problems are related to contamination of the intestines. After all, this organ plays a very important role in our body: it is responsible for removing all the waste, toxins and waste products that the body no longer needs, but if for some reason they remain, it can cause serious health problems. Toxins that accumulate in the intestines due to constipation go to the liver, and then through the blood spread throughout the body, causing serious skin problems, as well as the development of various chronic diseases.

Why don't people wake up from their own snoring?

Since even in sleep the brain analyzes sounds, and the sleeper wakes up if the sound is unexpected or has a signal meaning (call, name calling). A person may also be awakened by the absence of a sound, for example, if a night train, which constantly passes by his house at the same time, for some reason did not pass by. At the same time, the loud but familiar noise does not bother the person, which is known to anyone who has fallen asleep in the subway. Here, too, the snorer's brain does not perceive snoring as an unexpected sound. #Fact check

What is microneeding?

Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure, that involves puncturing or pricking the skin using sterilized needles. The micro wounds caused by this procedure stimulate your body to produce more collagen and elastin which repair the punctures made giving your skin a smoother more younger appearance.  Dermatologists would recommend microneedling to patients suffering from acne, hyperpigmentation, alopecia, scarring, stretchmarks and wrinkles. The procedure is non-invasive, cheaper than laser therapy and takes around 10-20 minutes depending on the area of skin required to be microneedled.  The Doctor first applies a numbing cream to the region of skin that is to be microneedled, next a roller or a pen containing sterilized micro needles is applied on the area, finally a cream or serum is applied to ease the pain and promote healing.  Most individuals require 4-6 sessions before seeing any difference, though considered as a safe procedure, since the skin is being pricked or punctu...

The weather of these days

🌞🔥 Heat Stroke (Sun Stroke):- Severe hyperthermia is defined as a body temperature of 104 F (40 C) or higher. The body normally generates heat as a result of metabolism, and is usually able to dissipate the heat by radiation of heat through the skin or by evaporation of sweat. 🟥 Complications :-  🔸Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). 🔹Brain swelling. 🔸Kidney failure. 🔹Liver failure. 🔸Metabolic dysfunction. 🔹Nerve damage. 🔸Reduced blood flow to the heart and other circulatory problems. 🩺 Treatments :-  ✅ Encouraging them to drink slightly salted fluids, such as sports drinks or salted water. ✅ Having them lay down in a cool, shady, well-ventilated environment. Immersing them in cool water, if possible. ✅ Misting them with water and blowing air across their bodies (evaporative cooling). ✅ Monitoring their breathing carefully and removing any airway blockages. ✅ Not giving any medications, including aspirin and acetaminophen. ✅ Removing any clothing that is tigh...

World TWorld Thalassaemia Day 2022 - 08 May:

 World TWorld Thalassaemia Day 2022 - 08 May: A blood disorder involving lower-than-normal amounts of an Hemoglobin protein. Thalassemia is an inherited blood disorder characterised by less oxygen-carrying protein (haemoglobin) and fewer red blood cells in the body than normal. ✅ Treatments:-  🩸 Frequent blood transfusions:- More severe forms of thalassemia often require frequent blood transfusions, possibly every few weeks. Over time, blood transfusions cause a buildup of iron in your blood, which can damage your heart, liver and other organs. 🩸Stem cell transplant. Also called a bone marrow transplant, a stem cell transplant might be an option in some cases. For children with severe thalassemia, it can eliminate the need for lifelong blood transfusions and drugs to control iron overload. 👨‍đź‘©‍đź‘§‍👦 This procedure involves receiving infusions of stem cells from a compatible donor, usually a siblings

How to get rid of muscle pain after a workout?

Muscle pain is caused by two factors: micro-tears, which cause poor circulation and the accumulation of metabolites. To improve circulation, doctors recommend massage and heat. It is also not superfluous to wear compression knitwear to restore venous blood flow. Drinking a moderate amount of coffee before exercise also improves venous blood flow, and cherry juice is useful after exercise because it contains antioxidants that reduce inflammation in the muscles.

Why is blood type B-negative the rarest?

The fourth positive type is much more common. The fourth group in general is a mystery, because it came from the fusion of two very different types, A and B. It is a young group, and people with it have a flexible immune system.  This group is unique in that it emerged not because of the influence of the external environment, but as a result of mixed marriages. It is worth mentioning that this group is the most biologically complex. ⠀ Antigens sometimes make it similar to the second, and sometimes even to the third. Occasionally, it also happens that this rare group is something like a combination of both of these groups.  Thus, the fourth blood group is thought to have appeared later than all the others, about a thousand years ago, as a result of the mixing of Mongoloid and Indo-European.

Osteoporosis is one of the inevitable diseases for all of us

Sooner or later our bones will become brittle and break more easily.  Osteoporosis affects all bones of the skeleton - there is a marked decrease in bone mass. This disease manifests itself at the age over 60 (which is when osteoporosis is usually diagnosed). Osteoporosis has severe consequences for patients: chronic pain and prolonged bed rest due to bone fractures. Bone mass peaks around the age of 30. Therefore, after the age of thirty it is necessary to maintain muscle tone and stimulate bone regeneration with strength exercises.

​​How do Blood Pressure monitors work?

A proper scientific name for a blood pressure monitoring device is sphygmomanometer. For many decades, physicians used a manually inflated air-bladder cuff and a listening device called stethoscope to listen to arterial wall sounds. This is known as auscultatory method of measuring blood pressure. Using this method required some practice and it was typically performed by trained medical practitioners. Recent advances in medical technology paved way for inexpensive, easy-to-use, digital BP monitors that anyone could use in the comfort of their homes without specialized knowledge or training. A digital BP monitor uses an inflatable air-bladder cuff, a battery-powered air pump and a pressure sensor for sensing arterial wall vibrations  to measure blood pressure in an artery. This is known as oscillometric method. There are two types of digital BP monitors: the upper-arm (shown above) and the wrist models (shown below). The upper-arm model has a cuff that ...

The reason behind stomach ache

This question is sometimes difficult to answer accurately, even for medical professionals. In about a third of patients, the cause of their ailments can't be determined at all. This is because there are so many possible causes. The pain may even be psychogenic, meaning that it is caused by stress or the psychological state of the patient. In the abdominal cavity there are many internal organs and tissues. Pain may be in the intestines, stomach, liver, kidneys, gallbladder and bladder, uterus in women, as well as blood vessels and muscles that cover the abdomen.  And sometimes the problem is not in them at all, but, for example, in the heart - then we talk about irradiating (reflected) pain. This is why it is so important not to engage in self-diagnosis, but to go to the doctor when you have alarming symptoms. A specialist will assess your well-being, take into account your lifestyle, eating habits, and events that preceded the onset of pain.
