How can jeopardize the health the lime juice

Lime juice is known for its high percentage of vitamin C and potassium. Because of antioxidant and antimicrobial effects, it is often used for local treatment of acne, while smoking stimulates the immune system. However, rarely mention the health risks of lime juice.

Gastroesophageal reflux
Gastroesophageal reflux occurs when stomach contents back into the esophagus. This disease often manifests itself as painful heartburn and changes in the feed. Heartburn, excessive feelings of satiety and nausea are symptoms of return of gastric acid into the esophagus. Citrus fruits like lemon exacerbate irritation of the esophagus and further aggravate the uncomfortable symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux, but can also intensify the irritation of the stomach ulcer. Treatment of gastric ulcer is aimed at reducing stomach acid that can heal ulcers, and acid lime does not contribute at all to this. Symptoms of developing gastric ulcers may include nausea and abdominal pain.
Dental erosion
Dental erosion is the irreversible loss of dental hard tissue due to the action of acids, while exactly Lime juice can do irreversible damage to the teeth. Lime juice acids can ruin the enamel, glittering upper surface of the teeth which protects teeth from decay. The weakening of the tooth enamel can lead to changes in the color of the tooth surface, the appearance of caries and increased sensitivity if it continues long-term exposure of teeth to acid. One way to avoid this situation is to drink lemon juice in combination with other foods and beverages, and to avoid direct drinking pure lemon juice.
Interaction with medicines
US FDA has clearly defined the relationship between drug metabolism and citrus fruits. Drug metabolism refers to the way in which the body breaks medicines, absorbs and uses them, distribute Koha.net. A small amount of lime juice, 120 ml of fluid containing even 5.9 grams of citric acid that reduces blood levels klorokuinit. Klorokuinin take travelers, soldiers and all those who travel in areas with high levels of contracting malaria. Precisely because of the misunderstanding of the metabolic effects of food and medicines, medicines, rarely threatened.

Losing weight and medicines against cancer, increase fertility in men

Two studies on increasing fertility in males were presented at the annual meeting of the Endocrine Society.

The first has suggested that obese men to lose weight, are more likely to leave their partners pregnant.
The second has discovered that a drug against cancer, has helped some infertile men have children.
Experts have said that these studies provide some good alternatives to IVF and create new opportunities for real men.
Losing weight has long been suggested that women with fertility problems and obesity from previous studies is suspected as the cause of this problem in males.
A group at the University of Sherbrooke in Canada, have already launched a new study that assist men fall in weight, to see if it will increase their sperm fertility.
Of the 65 couples who had run the fertility clinic, overweight men underwent treatment issued by nutritionists and physical activity for a year, writes Annabel. In the end, it turned out that they were pregnant partners of men who lost more weight.
While the second study focused on letrozole component that is used in the treatment of breast cancer and fertility problems in women. Excessive fat in men, affecting the balance of sex hormones, which then affect sperm fertility and letrozoli, promotes testosterone. 

Obese people live longer

The research, which was published in the journal of the American Medical Association says that people who have excess body weight actually live longer.

It is a comprehensive research about how weight affects longevity.
The research took into consideration more than 100 previous research, which included 2.88 million people and 270,000 cases of mortality in the world. However, according to the parameters of the World Health Organization considered normal weight when you body mass index between 18.5 and 24.9, while people are considered obese, body mass index of which is between 25 and 29.9, while people obes those body mass index of 30 and more.
The survey dealt with how long people lived, what health they had when they died and how they evaluate their quality of life. Obese people, it was shown that five percent had lower rates of premature death than those with normal weight.
This is not the first time scientists have shown that excess body weight has its advantages. Similar results were communicated after the 2005 survey, but many have been skeptical. Such research is published "rubbish".

How does zinc protects us from infections?

Many people take supplements of zinc to prevent the creation of flu or colds, and research new American scientists reveals in detail the action of zinc.

"Zinc helps the body to fight infections so that the immune system turns on balance" conveys "EverydayHealth" Prof. statement. Daren KNOELL.
Unfortunately, many people do not consume enough zinc, which is particularly dangerous for elderly people, and those with weakened immunity.
Foods that are rich in zinc are red meat, chicken, beans, fruits, nut, some fish and shellfish species, integral cereals and fortified dairy products, transmits Koha.net.
In the experiment they used human monocytes are involved in the recognition of pathogens. When pathogen known activation occurs a large number of cells powering the immune system. Proteins in the body stimulate the release of zinc transporters, which scientists have called ZIP8. When the carrier enters the cell walls, he directs zinc from the blood circulation in the cell line. In this way prevent the spread of inflammation which can be dangerous for the whole body.
For scientists to this research was not clear ways in which zinc operated infection. Thus, zinc plays an important role in almost all bodily functions and interaction with thousands of proteins, which are important for the proper functioning of the body. However, the total amount of zinc in the body only 10 percent is used in the fight against infections.
Most adults should consume during the day 8 to 11 milligrams of zinc.Scientists point out that it is possible, but extremely rare, deal great amounts of zinc which then becomes toxic. 

Do parents want all children alike

Although difficult to accept the parents in front of family or friends, research shows that nonetheless favor one child than another.

Research by Canadians has shown that the more different style of raising children from the same family, the more negative would be that the impact on the mental health of all family members.
"This discovery is very surprising," said Jenny Jenkins, professor of applied psychology and human development at the University of Toronto and leader of the study. "We expected that the so-called" differential growth "only affects the dynamics between parents and children. However, it is shown that it affects the whole family ".
"Increase or differential education" is actually fancy name for what it actually represents favoring one child versus another.
The research, which was published in the journal "Child Development" lasted four years. For this period, followed 400 Canadian families with survey method and direct observations.
Prof. Jenkins and her team have found that children of parents who did not treat their children the same, had more problems with care and social relations that have continued well into adulthood.
Researchers have discovered that the growth or differential education is also associated with several factors, such as poverty, mental illness and history of abuse in the family, transmit Koha.net.
Equally so, research has shown that women who have been under emotional stress longer and were less financial rights of their children.

Is the mobile phone dangerous during pregnancy?

Today, it has become almost inevitable to live without phones, but pregnant women should not be forgotten that the radiation gives rise to various risks.

Ass. dr. Memli Morina, mr. sci
-gynecologist - obstetrician
wire. 045725725
Now when you are pregnant, are much more careful about what medicines you take, ask questions which foods are recommended and which should be avoided during pregnancy, a baby compromised if you continue to work etc. Sometimes pregnant women also make other questions to be secure that they will not harm the baby they have within themselves, for example, want to know whether it can color the hair during pregnancy. Can be washed in the pool, can you ride a bike, can skijojnë etc. However, a question which make pregnant women more often is that a compromised baby if she uses the mobile phone?
Pregnant women are usually very careful and do not use drugs, choose foods and beverages that are healthy, but forget that cell phones emit radiation.
Unfortunately we can not say with complete certainty that cell phones are safe to be used by a pregnant woman. In the mobiles are being used more these last 10-15 years and it is difficult to track the effects of mobile phone radiation that emits.
There is no denying that for most of us have mobile that is the center of the universe. Each of us uses not only as a phone, but sends SMS, video messages, check email, are about uninterrupted friends, explore the Internet and retrieve information once it occurs anywhere in the world, the use as a photo camera and take pictures of each pleasant moment with their loved ones, the use to listen to music, has GPS navigation, and much else.
Mobile phones emit non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation. This type of radiation emitted by the devices that we use every day such as TV, computer or microwave.
Non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation is much easier than ionizing radiation (X-ray radiation that is). Most experts believe that non-ionizing radiation is unlikely to harm the baby inside the womb.
Phones ranked depending on the degree of radiation that emit. Do you know how many phone emits radiation that you have on hand? This radiation is called SAR (Specific Absorption Rate). The SAR value indicates which is the maximum amount of radiation absorbed while you are using the handset.
All phones that are sold in Europe must have a SAR value of less than 2 watts / kg. The higher the SAR value of your phone so you absorb more radiation.
The SAR value is also dependent on signal strength. The stronger the signal is, the lower will be the SAR. So, it is best to use the handset only when strong signal in order to reduce the radiation to which exposed.
Whatever you say should also be proved and in this case is there evidence that mobile is harmful if used by pregnant? In fact it is difficult to monitor the impact of only one environmental factor (in this case the phone) in the development of the fruit, because pregnant women are exposed to many environmental factors and it is difficult to determine the effect it can have only one of these factors.
It made a study at Yale University, where Dr. Hugh Taylor and his colleagues tried to observe the impact that mobile in the development of the embryo. They took two groups of pregnant rat; Each group had 42 mice. The first group of mice exposed handset which was lit, but was in "silent mode" (ie, do not alarm) and the phone constantly received signal.The second group of rats exposed to a mobile phone which was stopped and can not receive the signal. All other environmental conditions, including food and accommodation were exactly the same for both groups of mice. Pregnant rats were exposed to the impact of mobile throughout pregnancy and after birth juvenile rats were followed until they reached adulthood. Compared with mice who were not exposed handset, mice who were exposed to the impact of reduced handset had Remembrance, were more hyperactive and according to the description of the doctor "did not head to the world around crying."
Dr. Taylor compared the behavior of mice who were exposed handset with signs that have children who have hyperactivity with decreasing concentration (Attention Deficit Hyper-Activity Disorder - ADHD or ADD).ADHD is diagnosed more frequently which was put children. Moreover, rats were exposed to the influence of another type handset electrical activity of the brain.
According nurologe pediatrician Dr. Maya Shetreat-Klein about 11% of American children are diagnosed with ADHD. Also, it states that one in five children diagnosed with mental illness. Normally that parents ask "why?", "Why has my child this problem?". It is understood that these disorders are very complex and can not be linked to just one factor, but the scientific evidence increasingly linking exposure within the womb with these behavioral problems in children.
Another finding of this study was that short exposures are associated with changes not (that were similar as not to have any exposure) and that changes were becoming more pronounced the longer the duration of exposure was. Consequently, limiting the duration of exposure to pregnant handset protects child has within himself.
In conclusion we can say that more studies are still needed to document the impact of handset Pregnancy health of her baby. Apparently the exposure of the fruit is low, but still not known with certainty how it impacts on the development of the embryo.
Today, it has become almost inevitable to live without phones, but exposure to radiation can reduce if:
• Use the phone as little as possible
• If possible do not use mobile phones or send messages (and not call) or static phone use to communicate with someone.
• Conversations do much shorter
• Find a place where the signal is strong (for SAR will be lower)
• Do not leave the stomach phone and use earphones during the conversation in order to keep the phone as far away from yourself.

People with blue eyes have the same ancestor

The scientists analyzed the DNA of 800 people with blue eyes and concluded that all people with blue eyes share the same ancestor.

Eyes are the most complex organ in the human body and is often referred to as "the window of the soul". Also, blue eyes are one of the variations of the color of the eyes, which has intrigued more people.
However, if before 10 thousand years ago there would have been a genetic mutation, today we had only people with brown eyes.
In a study at the University of Copenhagen (Netherlands) it was concluded that all people with blue eyes share the same ancestor.
Of all the participants in the study 99.5% had the same mutation in the gene that influences our eye color. In other words, they share the same DNA.
This also indicates that a person has been responsible for the mutation.
Mutations can occur for a variety of reasons, writes Annabel. Some believe that blue eyes make people more attractive as partners, based on natural selection.
