  • Herbal Cure for Hepatitis B

    INDIAN HERBAL SCIENTISTS claim to have found an effective and cheap treatment for the Hepatitis B, the dreaded disease that has some two billion infected people (infected with HBV – Hepatitis B virus), out of which more than 350 million have chronic (lifelong) infections, across the globe.

     Luck now based International Institute of Herbal Medicine (IIHM), headed by Dr Namenda Singh has developed an extract of traditional Indian plants (liver-kidney cure), which catalyses the generation of interferon in the cells.

    The low generation of interferon in the cells reduces the liver’s capacity to fight with the viral infections. The liver-kidney cure for hepatitis is a combination of BohrrivaDeffusa (Panera), PicorhizaCurova (Kutki) and PhylynathusHirruri herbal extracts, which has been found highly useful in treating the deadly disease.

    Singh says that scientists and clinicians from 12 Asian countries were a part of the intensive research and the drug was recently given recognition by Orthodox Union, an agency from USA and Israel. Companies from USA, France, Israel and Canada have already entered into an agreement with IIHM for the bulk production of the drug.

    The Herbal formulation has the capacity of raising both the hemoglobin and interferon. “We are going ahead with more trials of the drug and discussions with other agencies were on,” says Dr. Singh. Timesnewsexpress

    “The herbs were raised in the Botanical garden of Banaras Hindu University and Central Institute of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants (CIMAP), thus giving boost to the prospects of being recognized in a big way,” he pointed out.

    Hepatitis B is preventable with safe and effective vaccines that have been available since 1982. It is 95 per cent effective in stopping chronic infections from developing. It is the first vaccine against a major human cancer. Ventsmagazin

     The World Health Organization (WHO) called for all children to receive the hepatitis B vaccine, in 1991. 116 countries have added this vaccine to their routine immunisationprogrammes.

    However, India, where the vaccine is needed most, has not been receiving it because the government cannot afford it.

    WHAT IS VIRAL HEPATITIS?

    Viral Hepatitis: This is the inflammation and necrosis of the liver caused by a virus or group of viruses.

    There are other types of hepatitis including hepatotoxic and drugs related hepatitis and alcoholic hepatitis. Naturfriseur-claudia

    Types of Viral Hepatitis

    There are many types of viral hepatitis

    Hepatitis A, B, C, D, E and G etc.

    HEPATITIS B: It is caused by the Hepatitis B virus. A DNA headman virus with a partially double-stranded DNA genome.

    HEPATITIS C: This is a serious and often-silent liver infection caused by the Hepatitis C virus – a single stranded RNA virus. At least six major genotypes have been identified.

    MODE OF TRANSMISSION

    Hepatitis B and C viruses are transmitted by contacts with infected blood or blood products

    For example, via contaminated needles (including unsterilized tattoo needles), accidental needle-sticks in healthcare workers, and unprotected sex, sharing nail clippers, razors, or toothbrushes .

    OTHER MODES OF TRANSMISSION

    It can also be present in saliva, semen and vaginal secretions and through HbsAg positive mothers to child (maternal-neonatal transmission). Hepatitis B is prevalent in homosexuals and intravenous drug users but most cases result from heterosexual transmission. The incubation period of hepatitis B is 6 weeks to 6 months (average of 12 – 14 weeks). That of Hepatitis C is between 6-7 weeks and clinical illness is often mild, usually asymptomatic.

    Signs and Symptoms

    Hepatitis C has been called “the silent killer” because the virus often hides in the body for years, escaping detection as it attacks the liver. Since most people don’t have warning signs of hepatitis C (or don’t know how or when they were infected).

    They don’t seek treatment until many years later. By the time hepatitis C symptoms appear or a diagnosis is made, the damage often is well underway.

  • Fitness Motivation for the Soul

    I gave you the first part on how to crank up your fitness inspiration, and cheers to the second part of these exciting tips.

     What folks get into their bodies is so important that I can’t emphasize, I think we could classify consumers into two broad families: Those who know (have a lot of knowledge) and those who don’t know/or have little knowledge. It’s all about applying the knowledge that you have received. I don’t want you to just read these pointers and then leave them for the dead. Let this words change your life, live this words, then you would have done yourself a favor. If you never intend to put these words to test, then don’t even bother reading dear sister/brother. I love you, but I can’t facilitate irresponsibility. Btc-tw

     If you are going to have an apple/celery stick and yogurt as snack. Add some walnuts, hazelnuts or flax seeds into the whole picture. It helps in keeping you satisfied and it helps in extracting the nutrients from the fruits.

     Please do not use bottled dressing on your salads, instead use extra virgin oil and fresh lemon juice. Bottled dressing has more chemicals than your local dry cleaners.

    Keep a fresh supply of natural nuts in your freezer (unsalted), for fatty acids and their slimming effect. Choose old fashioned oat meal instead of instant oat meal, the latter is highly processed.

    There has been a long debate over the years as to whether it is motivation or inspiration that drives an individual best towards their goal. On the one hand, motivation is great for immediate action and more tangible outcomes in the short term.

    On the other hand, inspiration, because of its intrinsically desired based nature, is powerful at getting you to access your true desires and you’re most authentic drives towards a goal like a fitter, stronger body for the long term. Chiicmagazine

     I’m on the side of inspiration especially when it comes to fitness. Fitness is a long term part of life and the last things you want to rely on in your fitness are fleeting and undependable motivations. So, it makes sense to have intrinsic and internal reasons to get fit rather than extrinsic and external motives that will have no effect the following day, let alone weeks and months. There is a caveat with inspiration though. Likemanga
