WHAT THE DEBT DEAL MEANS TO YOU.


Investors: It sure seems a plus for global stock markets, as Asian stock markets and U.S stock futures rose after the deal was announced. It is difficult to see why .Though the U.S stock market isn’t a barometer on the U.S economy anymore. The typical member of the S&P500 already gets about half of its revenues (and almost all its growth) from overseas. It’s a truism that equity market hate uncertainty. And the quick positive reaction is the latest example of the risk-on/risk-off trade. When bad things happen or investors think bad things are going to happen, they sell stocks. When anxiety fades, they buy stocks. That’s what is happening now.
Bond market: It does and the action of the U.S bond markets has been odd in recent weeks. As the U.S move toward a debt crisis, people and institutions around the world continued to buy U.S government bonds, pushing interest rates down further. In fact, last Friday, the 10-year bond closed at 2.8 per cent. Investors never really believe that the U.S will not pay it’s debt. They did believe that large budget cuts would slow growth in an economy whose rate of growth is already slowing . And that tends to put interest rates down. So bonds may fall as investors embrace risk again. But over the long term, this deal in and of itself, is likely to act as downward pressure on rates.
Slower growth and negative factor for stocks
While the deal takes uncertainty over debt payments off the table, it does contribute to other type of uncertainty for stocks in general and certain classes of stocks. For example, the deals calls for real cuts in defense spending (with the prospects of much more), which would be negative for large defense contracting/aerospace complex. And as a general rule, actions that reduce domestic demand (as across the board budget cut would) are a negative for companies that derive a disproportionate share of their revenues from the U.S.


HEPATITIS;, TREATMENT AND PREVENTION


I have yellow fever doctor, said a patient. How do you know you have yellow fever? The doctor asked. The patient reply “Doc, I have fever and my eyes are yellow.”
Here in lies the sea of confusion between Yellow fever, Jaundice and Hepatitis. There seems to be a great deal of confusion about the trio of Yellow fever, Jaundice and Hepatitis. To many people , it would seem that fever along with yellow discoloration of the eyes and mucous membranes and skin (technically called Jaundice) must be yellow fever.
However in the science of medicine, there is a great gulf between these diseases. The yellow fever virus causes yellow fever. A wide range of viruses or toxins on the other hand may cause hepatitis. Both diseases cause inflammation of the liver. An inflamed liver is unable efficiently the breakdown of red blood cells. This results in the accumulation of bilirubin in the blood and connective tissues leading to what is called jaundice. The subject of yellow fever is beyond the scope of this article. Suffice it to say that it is a very deadly ailment with high mortality but totally preventable by an affordable yet very effective yellow fever vaccine which is taken once every ten years.
The specific viruses that cause viral hepatitis include Hepatitis A virus (HAV); Hepatitis B virus(HVB); Hepatitis D virus (HDV) delta agent; Hepatitis E virus (HEV) transmitted in epidemic form in Asia, North Africa and Mexico. There are other viruses that have been implicated in causing hepatitis such as Hepatitis G virus (HGV) SEN-V virus, TT virus (TTV) and other virus.
HEPATITIS A
The HAV causes the sporadic or epidemic causes of hepatitis. The virus is transmitted or spread through contaminated food and water sources which may therefore lead to outbreaks in large population groups. Its spread is therefore favored by overcrowding, poor sanitation and personal hygiene. The incubation period is usually a few days, 30 days on the average. The illness is usually self-limiting with complete recovery within two weeks. Long lasting infection does not occur. Infections may be severe in adults but may occur in children without any symptoms or indeed ill health. Death from hepatitis A is very rare.
HEPATITIS B
Hepatitis B is usually spread through the inoculation of infected blood or blood products or by sexual intercourse. The virus (HBV) may be found in blood, saliva, semen and vagina fluids in infected persons. A mother who is infected is able to transmit the HBV to the child at the time of delivery. The risk of chronic infection in such cases is very high. HBV tends to occur very commonly in homosexual or gay men and intravenous drug users (IVDUs). Certain groups of people are at higher risk of contracting the infection; doctors, nurses, dentists, blood bank staff, patients and staff of haemodialysis centers etc. Sadly, it takes less blood to transmit HBV than HIV which causes AIDS.
From the time of infection, it takes 6 weeks to 6 months (average 12-14 weeks) for the infected person to become clinically ill. Hepatitis B may also present as very severe form of hepatitis called fulminant hepatitis in about 1% on infected persons. In this group, death may occur in as many as 60% of them. In yet another group, the illness may persist as chronic hepatitis B. In this group, the infection persist for years and then the patient go on to develop liver cirrhosis and liver cancer.
HEPATITIS D (DELTA AGENT)
Hepatitis D is a detective virus that is unable to cause hepatitis on its own except in association with HDV. HDV may therefore co-infect a person with HDV or super infected a person with chronic hepatitis. When it occurs concurrently with acute hepatitis or severe chronic hepatitis leading rapidly to cirrhosis.
HEPATITIS C
May be transmitted by blood transfusion, intravenous drug use, sexual contact and from mother to child. Having multiple sexual partners would therefore increase the risk of infection by hepatitis C virus. Incubation period is around 6-7 weeks.
HEPATITIS E
This is a waterborne hepatitis virus. Outbreaks occur in India, Burma, Afganistan, Algeria and Mexico. The illness is self-limiting with no carrier state. But mortality is usually high in infected in infected pregnant women (up to 10-20%).
HEPATITIS G
This virus has been detected in blood donors, intravenous drug users, haemodialysis patients, haemophiliacs and patients with chronic hepatitis B or C does not appear to cause important liver disease.
CLINICAL PICTURE OF HEPATITIS
The onset of illness may be abrupt or insidious. There is usually a flu-like illness with generalized malaise, fever, muscle aches, joint pains, easy fatigability, sore throat, nasal discharge and loss of appetite, nausea and vomiting. Frequently there is diarrhea, constipation and aversion to smoking for those that smoke. Then as the fever begins to ebb, jaundice sets in 5-10 days. Chill or chillness may occur. The liver is enlarged and painful to touch. The spleen and lymph node may become enlarged also. Gradually the patient begin to feel better. Appetite returns and jaundice also begins to clear off. Abdominal pain also reduces. The diagnosis as to which type of hepatitis is aided through various laboratory tests.
TREATMENT
The treatment of hepatitis includes bed rest where applicable. Diet should consist of palatable meals as identified by the patient. Fluid replacement and multivitamin supplements are adjuncts to the treatment. The drug Alpha Interferon has been used in patients with acute hepatitis C and found to reduce the risk of progression to chronic hepatitis C.
PREVENTION
In general, the careful handling of needles and the screening of blood before transfusion are useful ways to prevent hepatitis. Hepatitis A may be prevented by vaccination and the use of immunoglobin in close contact of patient with HAV infection. Hepatitis B has a very potent and effective vaccine, which gives a lifelong protection and requires only intermittent booster doses. Hepatitis B immunoglobulin may also protect or attenuate the severity of illness, if given within seven days of exposure to the HBV.


PSYCHOLOGICAL DANGERS OF PIMPLES

KNOWLEDGE, KEY TO DEALING WITH PIMPLES
Acne vulgaris, commonly known as pimples, is prevalent among adolescents and some adults. It is mild in some cases and severe in some others. Ache vulgaris is a common human skin disease characterized by scaly red spots, blackheads, whiteheads, pimples and possibly scaring, acne could be mild or moderate. When mild or moderate, your skin turns greasy or spots (whiteheads or blackheads) appear on your face, back and chest. Most spots come with no other identifiable symptoms. Spots that have become inflamed and infected ( papules, pustules, nodules and cysts) could at times be painful.
Generally, the disease is believed to be diet-induced and found only among teenagers. This couldn’t be farther from the truth as a known victim was identified to have started suffering pretty severe acne from age 24; nowithstanding the fact that prior to then, she never had a single pimple on her face. She was also not known to have changed diet in any way before then. Impliedly, that squashed both myths. For most victims, its effects on self esteem are paramount. They vary from absolute depression, lack of any self worth or confidence, being sad always and low self esteem. Others include constant anger and frustration, inability to sleep as well as a victim is always worried over what his or her skin would look like the next day, reclusiveness and lack of interest in social activities, self hate and suicidal inclinations. In fact a recent study in Sweden shows that among others “ Acne is the cause of suicidal thoughts”.
There are numerous solutions to this nightmarish skin infection. There are lots of creams out there for treating acne. The most important thing about having clear skin, or acne-free skin is to find products and skin care regime that works for you and stick to it religiously.


DIABETICS AT HIGHER OF TB

DIABETICS AT HIGHER RISK OF TB INFECTION
People living with diabetes may need to tighten their seat belt as a new study from the World Health Organization (WHO) has shown that people with diabetes face a much higher risk of contracting tuberculosis (TB) than non-diabetics.
According to the results of the study published in the May issue of the Bulletin of WHO, the study was done in medically-undeserved communities on both sides of the border of Mexico and United States of America (USA). It found that people with diabetes face three to five times the risk of contracting TB than non-diabetics living in the same settings.
Although the link between diabetes (primarily type 1) and TB has been known since the beginning of the 20th century, it had largely been forgotten by the 1950s as diabetes could be controlled by insulin and drugs to treat TB became available.
The researchers say with the massive increase in diabetes in
TB-epidemic areas, the findings highlight the emerging impact of type 2 diabetes on TB control in regions of the world where both diseases are prevalent. People with diabetes who have had recent contact with a TB patient are prime candidates for preventive treatment.
The researchers also recommend screening TB contacts for diabetes to improve detection and management of both diseases. This study has implications in particular for countries with high prevalence of both diseases such as Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Pakistan and Russia.

DO YOU WANT TO PREVENT CANCER? TAKE COFFEE


“Let thy coffee be thy medicine” is a common slogan these days. With cancer, stroke and heart disease rates climbing, conventional medicine’s so called “cures” aren’t working, regardless of billions spent in research and development. However several new studies suggest coffee prevent breast, prostrate, head and neck cancers.
While too much coffee can cause health problems, such as ulcers, new research suggests generous amount of it are strongly linked to lower cancer rates- between two to five cups daily, or even more, depending on the study and cancer type.
In one analysis, researchers pooled data on regular coffee drinkers and non-drinkers from nine studies collected by the a International Head and Neck Cancer Epidemiology Consortium. People who drank about four or more cups a day had a 39 per cent decreased risk of oral cavity and pharynx cancers combined, the investigators found. Data on decaffeinated coffee was too sparse for detailed analysis, they added, but indicate no increased risk. Tea intake wasn’t associated with head and neck cancer risk.
In another study, Havard University researchers presented data showing that men who drank the most coffee had an up to 60 per cent decreased risk of advanced prostrate cancers.
Results of a third study showed a decrease risk of brain tumors, associated with coffee. This link was found among those who drank five or more cups of coffee or tea a day, according to researchers from Imperial College, London.
And yet a fourth study found that at least two or three cups a day either can reduce the of breast cancer or delay its onset.
This effect is related to oestrogens, female sex hormones. Certain metabolic products of these hormones are known to be carcinogenic and various component of coffee can alter the metabolism so that a woman acquires a better configuration of various oestrogens, investigators said. Caffeine also hampers cancer cell growth.
In the study, researchers studied the coffee-drinking habits of women including nearly 460 breast cancer patients at Lund.
Women who had one of the C variants, and who had drunk at least three cup of coffee a day, developed breast cancer considerably more seldom than women with the A/A variant with the same coffee consumption. Their cancer risk was only two-thirds of that of the other women.
The study by Havard School of Public Health, showed drinking more than six cups of coffee daily can reduce the risk of getting prostrate cancer significantly. From 48,000 men and 12 years study, researchers discovered that those in this category had 60 per cent less chance of developing lethal prostrate cancer compared with non-drinkers when they drank six cups of coffee every day.




THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF MILK


Do you know that milk is a near perfect food source loaded with nine essential nutrients needed daily to keep bodies healthy and strong. Milk and dairy products are so important that they are one of the four major food groups. It is recommended that we try to get at least two serves of dairy each day (substitute with a high-calcium soy alternative).
Milk is an essential source of calcium and calcium intake is essential to developing the strongest bones we can when we are growing ( up to our mid-20s) and also to maintaining their strength throughout their lifetime. Calcium is stored in bones, so if we don’t get enough calcium, these stores are used for other essential functions, and our bones can be weakened.
A 250ml glass of whole milk provides around 290mg of calcium; reduced-fat and super-trim milks around 350-375mg; and calcium-fortified milks range from 400-500mg. Check the label of your favorite milk to see how much calcium it has.
Children 1-3 years need 500mg of milk each day. Girls and boys 9-13 years need 1,000-1300mg daily same as women 19-50 and men 19-70 years.
Milk contains protein, riboflavin and vitamin B12. But the most important thing about milk is that it is very high in calcium compared to other foods, so milk is the easiest way to get the calcium your body needs.
There are also range of milks with added vitamins and minerals aimed at people at different life stages.
Flavored milks can be a useful way of getting kids to drink milk, but be aware they do have added sugar and therefore extra energy.
Milk is a good source of nutrients and energy for toddlers, but they shouldn’t have too much or they won’t have capacity in their small stomachs for other foods they need to balance their diet. Think of milk as a food rather than ‘just a drink’.
Unlike other high-energy drinks, it provides a range of vitamins and minerals and it’s filling. People who drink sweetened carbonated drinks often add extra kilojoules to their diet without realizing it because these drinks don’t make them feel full. The moral is this: If you are hungry drink milk, if you are thirsty, drink water.
