Alcohol or life?

Canadian scientists found: alcohol can reduce the risk of brain damage in head injuries.

Researchers from the scientific and medical center “Sannibrok” found that people who were under the influence of small quantities of alcohol have more chances of survival in the disaster: it reduces the risk of secondary hemorrhage and formation of brain hematoma. It would seem that great news! But the main reason of  car accidents is still drunk drivers.

Green tea copes with bacteria and viruses better than antibiotics

Green tea helps action for the effect of important antibiotic preparations in struggle against proof bacteria and can increase their efficiency to three times, and in some cases this drink is even the best medicine. To such opinion the Egyptian scientists from the Alexandria University have come, having checked up properties of green tea in combination with antibiotics against 28 illnesses caused by microorganisms.

Green tea is a widespread drink in Egypt and many patients drink it also during medical therapies. Such grade of tea as the research of experts has shown, is capable to kill bacteria more reliably than antibiotics and at the same time almost on a 90 percent probability to improve their effect on dangerous viruses. Besides, green tea even in low doses reduces resistibility of bacteria to properties of antibiotics. Further, the experts intend to study structures of grasses of marjoram and a thyme and to find out the extent of their effect against proof bacteria.

Mobile phones render more harm to health than smoking and bad ecology, the Australian professor is assured

The doctor Winey Kurana from the National Australian University, one of leading and world famous neurosurgeons, has declared, that mobile phones give even bigger threat to human health, than smoking and bad ecology. Having conducted the 15-month’s review of connections between occurrence of malignant brain tumors and use of cellular telephones, doctor Kurana has drawn a conclusion, that these electronic communication devices double risk of cancer of a brain. In this connection the professor considers, that manufacturers of mobile phones and the international services of public health services should take measures on reduction of levels of the electromagnetic radiation rendered by mobile phones.

Also as he said it is necessary to carry out the careful and long-term scientific research including people which often talked by a mobile phone within, at least, 10-15 years. The doctor has expressed special excitement concerning young generation of users of cellular communication which use now a mobile phone from the earliest age. As all over the world there are three billion users of the mobile phones, the risks connected with it can affect health of much bigger number of people, than at smoking.

However the representatives of the Australian telecommunication association have disagreed with results of the doctor Kurana’s research - they state that mobile phones are developed with accurate observance of strict principles of safety for human health. Meanwhile, according to the World Health Organization, it is necessary to estimate better the risks for health from such electrical devices. Some European countries, such as France and Germany, have already started to issue preventions of use of mobile phones.

Ageing: natural process or result of wrong way of life?

Researchers have raised the question: whether the process of weakening of intellectual activity of the person in advanced age is the natural phenomenon or the reason of ageing consists in susceptibility to harmful influence of some chemical substances during many years of life? Lead can be such “wrecker”, as experts declare.
This provocative idea has been put forward by the group of the American researchers from Johns Hopkins University after generalization of results of many previous analyses of influence of lead on health of the person. As it is known, lead emissions in atmosphere make essential negative impact on children and adults. However new data specify that a cause of infringement of mental faculties of older persons and losses of memory by them also is susceptibility to action of lead during the certain period of time.
The most dangerous, according to results of the carried out research, is the fact, that destructive action of the polluted atmosphere continues to be shown even in twenty years since that moment when the person has moved to more ecologically clean place, or the situation with harmful emissions of industrial complexes has been normalized by the state. “We tried to prove, that process which is usually referred to as “natural process of ageing actually is not so natural”, - says doctor Brian Schwartz, one of authors the research project

Medicines for psychoses are powerless against low intellect

The researches conducted by the British scientists, have shown, that two most popular preparations, used against psychoses do not render due action on people with low I.Q.
Experiment, in which 86 adult people with low IQ have taken part, conducted in England, Wales and Australia has shown, that use of placebo (placebo - physiologically inert substance used as a medical product, positive medical effect of which is connected with subconscious psychological expectation of the patient) was the same, and possibly more effective, than application of Haldol and Risperdal - two most popular preparations applied at schizophrenia and other behavioral deviations.
These medicines were applied last years as demulcents at aggressive behaviour, and also were given to children suffering from deficiency of attention.
Researchers have found out, that after one month of treatment, 79 % of participants of the experiment, accepting tablets not containing active substance (actually medicines) showed decrease in aggressive behavior while 65 % of participants accepting medical products of antipsychopathic action showed the same decrease in aggression.
Doctor Peter J. Tyrer, the professor of psychiatry of the Imperial London College, heading the research, considers, that it is possible that results were affected by that factor, that the examinees were paid attention which they usually try to attract by aggressive behaviour and which is required to them in much bigger degree, than to people with normal I.Q.

Skimmed doesn’t mean useful

Nobody argues: decrease in quantity of fat in a diet is good. But is it necessary to do it with dairy products? If to drink exclusively skim milk, we will lose some fat-soluble vitamins. If we will have a snack with light yoghurts, we will only stir up appetite. It is good if we will satisfy it with useful products. And if the first comer under a hand will be fast-food?

The much bigger advantage will be brought by selective tactics. Alternate and combine products with different fat content not to break a metabolism and digestion of the important vitamins.

Yoghurt, milk and cottage cheese with usual fat content - here is my breakfast. And I advise you to do the same. Then you’ll keep vivacity and working capacity till the evening.

And at supper, in the week-end and at preparation of pancakes, batches, baked puddings, sauces, cocoa use cottage cheese, sour cream and milk of the lowered fat content. If at you cholesterol level is a little raised, choose less fat grades of cheese, sour cream, cottage cheese and milk 1-1,5 %-s’ fat content. And necessarily eat them together with “long-playing” carbohydrates – grain small loafs or bread with bran that saturation lasted longer.

If there are signs of ischemic illness of heart, fat-free products with zero on packing – is literally a rescue. The diet with the lowered maintenance of fats will be recommended to you by any cardiologist. Skim milk is also necessary to women after 30 years, when shortage of calcium starts to be felt. In the presence of fats its digestion from food decreases. It does not mean that you should eat exclusively dairy products. It is enough to drink twice a day a glass of milk of the lowered fat content enriched by calcium.

Skim milk is not released in soft packages, so take long-playing, and ultra pasteurized. Yes, this milk is with the big useful life, but don’t be frightened: there are no preservatives in it.

About it speaks such a badge on packing (to show a badge) All the matter is in technology. Milk is quickly heated up to a high temperature about 140 degrees, and also quickly cooled. Thus harmful bacteria will be neutralized, and minerals and vitamins remain in safety. And some layers of polyethylene, foil and a cardboard of this packing protect milk from external influences, therefore it is stored long. In general, you were convinced, that even dietary products demand care and observance of feeling of measure.

Dieticians have listed the most dangerous products

For today adiposity became a global problem of mankind. Dieticians tend to the idea, that excess weight in most cases is consequences of a wrong food. The most hazardous food to health, according to researchers, is fast-food.

In the black list of products scientists have included the aerated drinks. They render special harm to an organism because of the raised maintenance of colorants, aromatizing and concentrates. There are drinks with taste of a lemon, every possible berries and even cappuccino. It is easy to over persuade yourself not to drink this poison if to recollect, that because of the sweet they only cause thirst and do not satisfy it at all.

The second in a rating are chocolate bars. Widely advertised sweets have a huge popularity, however their unforgettable taste gives a large quantity of sugar and various chemical additives.

Dieticians consider that a sausage is also dangerous. As it has appeared, sausages contain up to 40 % of the latent fats and a set of flavouring additives. Fat grades of meat also do not render significant advantage. Not without purpose Moslems and Jews do not eat pork . This meat renders huge blow to the stomach, especially in a fried variant.

In the list of the products, which it is necessary to avoid, chips are also included. Unfortunately, this delicacy consists of a mix of carbohydrates and fat, plus – notorious flavouring additives. The early researches of scientists have proved that the frequent use of chips fatally affects the female organism. In particular, the Dutch experts assert, that products of fast food and especially chips have a negative an effect on a female organism. If women like to use such products in the diet they have raised chances to have cancer of uterine cervix or ovaries. The products, which are better for excluding from a food to women, are crackers and cookies, and also fried potatoes.

The matter is that all listed products of fast food contain the substance called acrylamide. The group of researchers from the University in Maastricht has decided to establish interrelation between this chemical element and cancer development. For this purpose the scientists have made the analysis of diets of 120000 women and could reveal a relationship of cause and effect between this substance and oncological disease.

It is necessary to notice, that acrylamide is a chemical, which is formed in some products during thermal processing. It possesses, under the assumption of scientists, cancerogenic properties.

Thus, during researches, the scientists have managed to find out, that women, who consumed 40 mg of acrylamide daily, had risk to be ill with cancer of uterine cervix or ovaries twice more than women who avoided food from fast food.

Cigarettes reduce IQ

As it is known, smoking causes chronic bronchitis and an atherosclerosis, provokes development of a cancer of lungs and ischemic illness of heart. But, it appears, the list of possible consequences of predilection for cigarettes is not limited to it at all. As last researches have shown, smoking also negatively influences on a brain and reduces mental abilities of the person.
Research of influence of smoking on intelligence was conducted at University of Aberdeen (Scotland). To understand, whether they are connected among themselves, scientists surveyed 465 volunteers at the age of 64 years among which there were approximately 50 % of inveterate smokers. The set of psychological tests for an estimation of mental abilities and memory was offered to each of them. Then scientists have compared results of participants with the results of similar tests conducted in 1947, stored in archives, when they were only 11 years.
Comparison has shown, that smokers “have lagged behind” the non-smoking contemporaries by all kinds of the tests offered to them. For some decades which have passed from the first inspection, the ability to logic thinking at them, both ability to storing and reproduction of information have much more strongly decreased also. And, that is interesting, when scientists have excluded influence of various “third” factors (social status, educational level, type of work, alcohol consumption etc.), distinction all the same remains statistically significant though it has decreased in several times.
Scientists cannot tell yet why smoking breaks brain work. According to most plausible of the hypotheses put forward by them, under the influence of nicotine and cigarette pitches nervous cells become more sensitive to action of free radicals – the toxic connections formed in cells during oxidation-reduction processes. Besides, cigarette pitches increase the maintenance of free radicals in an organism that also increases risk of damage of cells of еру brain.

Owners of cardio stimulator have been warned about hacker attacks

The researchers from the Massachusetts and Washington Universities have managed to crack remote control system to implanted cardio stimulators. Scientists could get access to personal data of the patient and cause dangerous failures in the operation of the device.
Modern models of implanted medical devices are supplied by systems of the remote data transmission, allowing the attending physician to supervise a condition of the patient and to change device options in remote mode. During increase in radius of action of such systems including by means of wireless Internet connections, the probability of extraneous intervention in their work will increase, the authors of the research are assured.
Scientists, which have made a demonstrative attempt of “breaking”, used defibrillator/cardio stimulators Maximo, developed by Medtronic Company. By means of the equipment in the total cost of 30 thousand dollars they have got access to the data, intended for sending to the attending physician, and also could make changes to device options, having changed a rhythm of rendering of electric impulses, regulating the work of heart of the patient. We will notice that during the experiment the device was only in several centimetres from burglars.
Organizers of the experiment have informed on its results Food and Drug Administration (FDA), supervising safety of the medical equipment. The researchers have also offered some ways of protection of medical devices from possible hacker attacks.
As the experts of FDA mark, department has not received any message on extraneous deliberate intervention in work of the implanted devices for more than thirty years of supervision. In turn, representative of Medtronic Robert Clark has underlined, that the last versions of cardio stimulators and defibrillators are equipped by advanced systems of protection of the personal data of the patients.
