Genetic  Risk Assessment of diabetes is the assessment to live long life. You can say this assessment helps you in leading the life with your ways just suggesting some great alternatives within the report depending upon your general details filled in the system which would help in reducing risk of complications of diabetes.

Now, you would think why it is so important to go for diabetes risk assessment scoring system, but this is really essential to find out your risk of diabetes developing in the body which can cause many complications of diabetes.

Specifically it found that lowering and maintaining more constant blood sugar levels reduced the risk of eye disease by 76%, kidney disease by 50%, nerve disease by 60% and cardiovascular disease by 35%. These complications are responsible for a reduction in the life expectancy of a newly diagnosed insulin dependent diabetic by about one-third.

From http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/topics/basic/index.htm 

HIV is spread primarily by:

• Not using a condom when having sex with a person who has HIV. All unprotected sex with someone who has HIV contains some risk. However:
  • Unprotected anal sex is riskier than unprotected vaginal sex.
  • Among men who have sex with other men, unprotected receptive anal sex is riskier than unprotected insertive anal sex.
• Having multiple sex partners or the presence of other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) can increase the risk of infection during sex. Unprotected oral sex can also be a risk for HIV transmission, but it is a much lower risk than anal or vaginal sex.
• Sharing needles, syringes, rinse water, or other equipment used to prepare illicit drugs for injection.
• Being born to an infected mother—HIV can be passed from mother to child during pregnancy, birth, or breast-feeding.

Less common modes of transmission include:

• Being “stuck” with an HIV-contaminated needle or other sharp object. This risk pertains mainly to healthcare workers.

• Receiving blood transfusions, blood products, or organ/tissue transplants that are contaminated with HIV.  This risk is extremely remote due to the rigorous testing of the U.S. blood supply and donated organs/tissue.

• HIV may also be transmitted through unsafe or unsanitary injections or other medical or dental practices.  However, the risk is also remote with current safety standards in the U.S.

• Eating food that has been pre-chewed by an HIV-infected person.  The contamination occurs when infected blood from a caregiver’s mouth mixes with food while chewing.  This appears to be a rare occurrence and has only been documented among infants whose caregiver gave them pre-chewed food. 

• Being bitten by a person with HIV. Each of the very small number of cases has included severe trauma with extensive tissue damage and the presence of blood. There is no risk of transmission if the skin is not broken. 

• Contact between broken skin, wounds, or mucous membranes and HIV-infected blood or blood-contaminated body fluids. These reports have also been extremely rare. 

• There is an extremely remote chance that HIV could be transmitted during “French” or deep, open-mouth kissing with an HIV-infected person if the HIV-infected person’s mouth or gums are bleeding.

• Tattooing or body piercing present a potential risk of HIV transmission, but no cases of HIV transmission from these activities have been documented. Only sterile equipment should be used for tattooing or body piercing.

• There have been a few documented cases in Europe and North Africa where infants have been infected by unsafe injections and then transmitted HIV to their mothers through breastfeeding.  There have been no documented cases of this mode of transmission in the U.S.

HIV cannot reproduce outside the human body. It is not spread by:

• Air or water.

• Insects, including mosquitoes. Studies conducted by CDC researchers and others have shown no evidence of HIV transmission from insects.

• Saliva, tears, or sweat.  There is no documented case of HIV being transmitted by spitting.

• Casual contact like shaking hands or sharing dishes.

• Closed-mouth or “social” kissing.

What are HIV and AIDS?

HIV is the human immunodeficiencyvirus. It is the virus that can lead toacquired immune deficiencysyndrome, or AIDS. CDC estimates that about 56,000 people in the United States contracted HIV in 2006.

There are two types of HIV, HIV-1 and HIV-2. In the United States, unless otherwise noted, the term “HIV” primarily refers to HIV-1.

Both types of HIV damage a person’s body by destroying specific blood cells, called CD4+ T cells, which are crucial to helping the body fight diseases.

Within a few weeks of being infected with HIV, some people develop flu-like symptoms that last for a week or two, but others have no symptoms at all. People living with HIV may appear and feel healthy for several years. However, even if they feel healthy, HIV is still affecting their bodies. All people with HIV should be seen on a regular basis by a health care provider experienced with treating HIV infection. Many people with HIV, including those who feel healthy, can benefit greatly from current medications used to treat HIV infection. These medications can limit or slow down the destruction of the immune system, improve the health of people living with HIV, and may reduce their ability to transmit HIV. Untreated early HIV infection is also associated with many diseases including cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, liver disease, and cancer.  Support services are also available to many people with HIV. These services can help people cope with their diagnosis, reduce risk behavior, and find needed services.

AIDS is the late stage of HIV infection, when a person’s immune system is severely damaged and has difficulty fighting diseases and certain cancers. Before the development of certain medications, people with HIV could progress to AIDS in just a few years. Currently, people can live much longer - even decades - with HIV before they develop AIDS. This is because of “highly active” combinations of medications that were introduced in the mid 1990s.

No one should become complacent about HIV and AIDS. While current medications can dramatically improve the health of people living with HIV and slow progression from HIV infection to AIDS, existing treatments need to be taken daily for the rest of a person’s life, need to be carefully monitored, and come with costs and potential side effects. At this time, there is no cure for HIV infection.

I was recently told by a very senior skin specialist to apply sunscreen when I go out in sun. I've applied sunscreen before but not regularly. So I thought of finding quality articles on sunscreen which I'm also sharing here for you in India and worldwide. Please note that I'll keep sharing related articles in the comments:

Please note that the following is an exact copy paste of the text from

http://www.aad.org/stories-and-news/news-releases/sunscreens-remain-safe-effective-form-of-sun-protection

I've highlighted points to try and make it easier for you to read the following text:
Sunscreens remain safe, effective form of sun protection

SCHAUMBURG, Ill. (May 23, 2011) -

The American Academy of Dermatology (Academy) today reiterated the safety and effectiveness of sunscreens to protect against the damaging effects from exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. As one component of a daily sun-protection strategy, sunscreen is an important tool in the fight against skin cancer, including melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer.

Unprotected sun exposure is the most preventable risk factor for skin cancer. More than 3.5 million new cases of skin cancer will be diagnosed in the United States this year, affecting 2 million people. At current rates, one in five Americans will develop skin cancer in his or her lifetime. About 75 percent of skin cancer deaths are from melanoma, and the incidence of melanoma has been rising for at least 30 years.

“Scientific evidence supports the benefits of sunscreen usage to minimize short and long-term damage to the skin from UV radiation and outweighs any unproven claims of toxicity or human health hazard,” said Ronald L. Moy, MD, FAAD, president of the Academy.“To reduce the risk of skin cancer and premature aging, dermatologists continue to recommend generously applying a water-resistant, broad-spectrum sunscreen ― that protects against both types of ultraviolet radiation (UVA and UVB) ― with an SPF 30 or higher, in conjunction with other sun-safe practices such as limiting sun exposure, seeking shade, and wearing sun-protective clothing, hats and sunglasses.”

Sunscreen products contain one or more active drug ingredients -- compounds that absorb, scatter or reflect UV light -- and are regulated as over-the-counter (OTC) drugs by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The FDA has several safety and effectiveness regulations in place that govern the manufacture and marketing of all sunscreen products, including safety data on its ingredients. However, recent media reports have questioned the health risks of some sunscreen ingredients, specifically oxybenzone and retinyl palmitate, as well as the use of nanotechnology in sunscreen.

Oxybenzone is one of the few FDA-approved ingredients that provides effective broad-spectrum protection from UV radiation, and has been approved for use since 1978. “Contrary to recent reports, available scientific literature and decades of public use does not support a link between oxybenzone in sunscreen and hormonal alterations, or other significant health issues in humans,” stated Dr. Moy. “The FDA has approved oxybenzone in sunscreen for use on children older than six months, and dermatologists continue to encourage protecting children by playing in the shade, wearing protective clothing and applying broad-spectrum sunscreen.”

Retinyl palmitate is a form of vitamin A (retinol), but is not an active drug ingredient in sunscreen. When used in sunscreen, retinyl palmitate serves cosmetic purposes as an antioxidant to improve product performance against the aging effects of UV exposure, or to enhance product aesthetic qualities. Despite recent concerns from in vitro (test tube) studies and one unpublished report using mice, “topical and oral retinoids are widely prescribed to treat a number of skin diseases, such as acne and psoriasis, and there is no published evidence to suggest either increase the risk of skin cancer in these patients,” said Dr. Moy. “In fact, oral retinoids are used to prevent skin cancers in high-risk patients such as those who have undergone organ transplantation.” Dr. Moy also added that “unlike more potent prescription forms of vitamin A, there is no evidence to suggest that use of sunscreen with retinyl palmitate poses comparable risks.”

The broad-spectrum sunscreen active ingredients titanium dioxide and zinc oxide leave a white residue on the skin following application when used in a larger particle form. However, when these active ingredients are converted into nanoparticles – smaller, lighter molecules – they appear to vanish on the skin, do not leave a residue, and retain and enhance their ability to block UVA and UVB light.

“While widespread use of nanotechnology in medicine is currently under evaluation, one of the main benefits of nanoparticles in sunscreens is that the small molecules can provide more protection and more even coverage on the skin’s surface than larger particles,” said Dr. Moy. “Considerable research on the use of nanoparticles on healthy, undamaged skin has shown that the stratum corneum – the outermost layer of the skin – is an effective barrier to preventing the entry of nanoparticles into the deeper layers of the skin. Titanium dioxide and zinc oxide have a long history of safe use in sunscreens and offer good options for broad-spectrum UV protection.”

There has also been concern that sunscreen use prevents the synthesis of vitamin D by the skin. Vitamin D is an essential nutrient that is vital for strong bones and a healthy immune system. The Academy recommends that an adequate amount of vitamin D should be safely obtained from a healthy diet that includes foods naturally rich in vitamin D (e.g., dairy products and fish), foods/beverages fortified with vitamin D (e.g., fortified milk and fortified cereals), and/or vitamin D supplements -- and not from UV exposure. The Academy recently updated its position statement on vitamin D based on the published review of the increasing body of scientific literature on this vitamin conducted by the National Academy of Sciences Institute of Medicine (IOM).

“Unprotected UV exposure to the sun or indoor tanning devices is a known risk factor for the development of skin cancer. Since sun exposure is responsible for vitamin D production in the skin, wearing sunscreen can decrease the skin's production of vitamin D, but alternative and safer options are available to obtain your vitamin D,” states Dr. Moy. “Individuals who properly and consistently wear sunscreen or use other UV protective measures, and are concerned about their vitamin D, should discuss obtaining sufficient vitamin D from foods and/or vitamin supplements with their doctor.”

The FDA is continuing to work on addressing requirements for UVA coverage in sunscreens and considering sunscreen labeling changes to help the public make knowledgeable decisions about protecting themselves from the dangers of sun exposure. “Dermatologists recommend the use of broad-spectrum sunscreen products to protect against UVA and UVB rays and we rely on the FDA to confirm the safety of the products,” said Dr. Moy. The American Academy of Dermatology currently awaits the FDA’s final ruling to provide the most current information.

“Despite any concerns over the use of sunscreen, they are an important component of a daily protection plan, as dermatologists understand the limitations of clothing and minimizing sun exposure. There are many sunscreen products available that meet the Academy’s recommendations, and consumers need to be comfortable with their choice of product in order to use it routinely”, Dr. Moy added. “Since allergic and other reactions can occur, individuals should read the product’s labeling carefully, use as directed, and seek the advice of their dermatologist in using sunscreens and any product applied to the skin. The American Academy of Dermatology will continue to monitor scientific evidence related to sunscreen ingredients and their effectiveness to help guide patients and the public.”

Headquartered in Schaumburg, Ill., the American Academy of Dermatology (Academy), founded in 1938, is the largest, most influential, and most representative of all dermatologic associations. With a membership of more than 17,000 physicians worldwide, the Academy is committed to: advancing the diagnosis and medical, surgical and cosmetic treatment of the skin, hair and nails; advocating high standards in clinical practice, education, and research in dermatology; and supporting and enhancing patient care for a lifetime of healthier skin, hair and nails.

Here’s an incentive to get your child off the computer, and out in the open. If all goes well, soon school students will be marked for physical fitness.

Three weeks after he mentioned this plan in book release function of HT, sports minister Ajay Maken on Thursday released the exposure 

    
“The aim is to bring about a change in attitude not only among the children but general public,” said Maken. He also said he hoped the programme would help groom future sporting stars of India.
 
According to the proposed draft, the top 10 percentage of gender wise performers shall be given an additional 3% to the marks obtained by him/her in academic disciplines in a given academic year.

Those between top 10 and 20 percentages will get an additional 2.5%, while performers between 20 to 30, 30 to 40 and 40 to 50 percentages will get an additional 2, 1.5 and 1% respectively.

Students will be evaluated on six parameters --- cardio respiratory endurance, muscular strength, muscular endurance, flexibility, explosive strength and body composition.

For each component, the ministry has proposed a physical test in January and June every year, with a marking scheme so that it can become part of 
the school’s yearly academic exercise.
 The proposed programme also prescribes a set of exercises to attain different levels of fitness including Surya Namaskara, an exercise adopted in all government schools in Madhya Pradesh.

A uniform assessment card and fitness assessment forms will be prepared by the Lakshmibai National University for Physical Fitness, Gwalior.

The sports ministry also aims to link the fitness programme with the Right To Education Act. The programme still needs the consent of the HRD ministry and state education departments. 

Dear All, I do think that both sweets and medicines have their values. However, are we having an unhealthy quantity and quality of sweets leading us to having more type of and expensive medicines? Today after gym, I went to a supermarket store in the same mall, however, it had closed because it was after 10 pm. There's a market next to the mall. I walked on the main road next to the market looking for a shop to be selling a kind of very healthy cereals. I walked till the end of the market but didn't see such a shop (perhaps there is but was closed). However, I saw some different sweets shops and medicine shops open. Also, how much regular healthy unadulterated food are we having? In this regard, you might also get value from http://www.healthfitnessindia.com/profiles/blogs/food-adulteration-in-india-issues-and-basic-to-advanced-solutions post. I wish that thinking of these would be of value. Best, Shakti

World Health Day

is celebrated on 7 April

to mark the anniversary of the founding of WHO in 1948.

The theme for 2013 is

high blood pressure.

From http://www.who.int/world-health-day/en/

About high blood pressure

High blood pressure – also known as raised blood pressure or hypertension – increases the risk of heart attacks, strokes and kidney failure. If left uncontrolled, high blood pressure can also cause blindness, irregularities of the heartbeat and heart failure. The risk of developing these complications is higher in the presence of other cardiovascular risk factors such as diabetes. One in three adults worldwide has high blood pressure. The proportion increases with age, from 1 in 10 people in their 20s and 30s to 5 in 10 people in their 50s. Prevalence of high blood pressure is highest in some low-income countries in Africa, with over 40% of adults in many African countries thought to be affected.

However, high blood pressure is both preventable and treatable. In some developed countries, prevention and treatment of the condition, together with other cardiovascular risk factors, has brought about a reduction in deaths from heart disease. The risk of developing high blood pressure can be reduced by:

• reducing salt intake;
• eating a balanced diet;
• avoiding harmful use of alcohol;
• taking regular physical activity;
• maintaining a healthy body weight; and
• avoiding tobacco use.

Goals: Greater awareness, healthy behaviours, improved detection, and enabling environments

The ultimate goal of World Health Day 2013 is to reduce heart attacks and strokes. Specific objectives of the campaign are:

• to raise awareness of the causes and consequences of high blood pressure;
• to provide information on how to prevent high blood pressure and related complications;
• to encourage adults to check their blood pressure and to follow the advice of health-care professionals;
• to encourage self-care to prevent high blood pressure;
• to make blood pressure measurement affordable to all; and
• to incite national and local authorities to create enabling environments for healthy behaviours.

March 22, 2014: "Main to expert ho gaya" (I've become an expert) said my four year old nephew. Today I was exercising at home on a mat while watching calisthenics videos on my laptop in front of me. I was doing push-ups and planks. During that time, my nephew visited with his parents. I also made him do exercises. He's an energetic person and liked doing the exercises. He was also watching the videos and liking them and even told me to play other videos that were showing on the side on YouTube. 

After exercising, I took him to the swings and slides in the park. I've taken him before and he likes that. When he tried getting on a slide, he said that he can't do it. I told that he can do it. He had to first climb a metallic mesh and then there was a slide on the other side. I showed him that how he has to grip the mesh and move up. He then tried it. My hands were below and above him in case his foot or hand might slip.

He was able to climb the first time itself with me guiding him. We did this few more times and then I stood a little back and let him do it. After a while of he doing it by himself, when he reached the top of the slide, he said that "main to expert ho gaya" (I've become an expert). 

I shared this with his parents on which they told me that he's learning new words at school. I wish that humans would learn increasingly well. 

God, please help me. I'm sure that if we'll support and guide the mankind increasingly well then there's seemingly infinite potential in humans to pursue the seemingly infinite value in our universe.  

I'll be sharing below calisthenics videos showing simple and more advanced body weight exercises I wish that you'll also share this blog post with your family and friends. Even if you don't have a good gym, you can do so many exercises with your body weight!

Calisthenics is the name given to repetitive exercises that use the resistance of your own body to build strength, increase flexibility and burn fat.

No equipment or weights are used in calisthenics, and the exercises can be performed anywhere there is a floor and enough space to move in. The benefits of calisthenics effects are wide-reaching.

Dearth of skilled and trained personnel is one the biggest challenges the healthcare delivery system of India faces today, according to the Third Annual Wellness Conference report 2011 brought out by the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI). The debate is likewise centered on the improper utilization of existing resources which is making matters worse.

According to data published in the Indian Journal of Medical Research in April 2013, seventy per cent of the posts of specialists like surgeons, physicians, paediatricians and gynecologists at Community Health Centers (CHCs) across the country are currently standing vacant¹.

 “As far as the talent crunch in healthcare goes there are two major issues leading hospital chains are facing today - inadequacy and underutilization. Not only are we faced with a massive shortfall of trained medical professionals, we are also having a tough time putting the available talent to use. Optimum utilization of available resources is a big issue”, says Dr. Vishnu Panigrahi, Group Head, Medical Strategy and Operations, Fortis Healthcare Ltd, New Delhi.

Experts believe that improper utilization of resources needs to be looked at in the context of the huge shortfall of medical professionals in India. According to WHO there are not even seven physicians per 10,000 patients in India. As of now, there is a net shortfall of 600,000 doctors in the country.

 “The current underutilization of skilled people in the healthcare industry is undoubtedly a concern about the evolution of healthcare delivery in the country. The sad reality is that healthcare professionals are many times placed inappropriately, not in accordance to their fit for the role. This needs to be addressed immediately”, says Arvind Pandit, CEO VIA Health Resources, a specialist healthcare focused executive search firm.

Although to combat the projected shortage, India plans to establish 200 more medical colleges, experts feel there is a lot more that needs to be done as the problem cannot be sorted out only at the primary health level. Moreover, the perception that there is no problem in the urban areas, and it is only the rural areas that need work is not entirely correct.

Dr. J. Kumar, a senior Neurosurgeon, and Practice Head, VIA Health Resources says, “It’s not just the rural areas, urban areas too face a critical shortage of doctors. Of course, the infrastructure is mostly in place in the urban areas but there are just not enough trained professionals to put it to proper use. The absence of a mechanism to put right people in the right roles complicates the situation further”.

So what’s the solution? Experts agree that in the long term the processes that have already been set in motion by the government will go a long way in helping deal with the problem. However, they point out that in order to provide infallible solutions it is also important to identify channels which could ensure that the proficiencies of existing healthcare professionals are utilized properly. In that context the development of a proper recruitment channel could bring about enormous benefits.

According to Swadeep Srivastava, CEO Via Media Health, “It’s not just about the talent crunch and the problems hospitals face in functioning smoothly. There is also the important question of hiring the right professionals so that healthcare delivery mechanisms function smoothly. Executive search channels which provide sustainable solutions to suit the needs of both the hospitals and the professionals coupled with optimum utilization of resources are the need of the hour.”

• 

• Spin technique or rotational technique
• 

• Glide technique

The
rotational or spin technique of shot put is a highly developed one and it is commonly cracked by the connoisseurs in the sport. When it comes to this technique, the one throwing the shot has to rest his leading leg at the center of the ring. The other leg should move back and forth and the person should spin the body when it is placed in the ground, the other leg reiterates the same process. After this the player flings off the shot.

If you wonder how to jog or run then watch this video presented by Dr. Andre Albrecht from Germany 

From http://www.urmc.rochester.edu/encyclopedia/content.aspx?ContentTypeID=1&ContentID=2035 

Which is better for you, jogging or walking?

Nearly all studies show that jogging provides slightly more benefits for your bones, muscles, heart, and lungs. But walking has gained a lot of ground in the last decade or so as a viable exercise. It strengthens bones, tones muscles, and helps your cardiovascular system.

Walking is easier on the body's joints. It causes far fewer injuries to heels, shins, knees, and hips than jogging or stair climbing, according to the American College of Sports Medicine.

And virtually everybody can walk.

Moreover, walking is linked to better physical functioning, even among older people who already suffer from chronic disease, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the American College of Sports Medicine. Both of these two groups call for getting at least 30 minutes of walking or a similar activity every day. This level of exercise burns at least 150 calories of energy.

For those of any age who can handle greater intensity and joint-pounding, however, jogging may be the way to go.

I like shoes, however, Christopher McDougall Talk from TED.com also has its values 

http://www.ted.com/talks/lang/en/christopher_mcdougall_are_we_born_to_run.html

From http://healthyliving.azcentral.com/jogging-night-2225.html "Because of certain physiological factors—including body temperature and the release of key energy-metabolizing hormones—some joggers may find they function better at night, according to Shawn D. Youngstedt, Ph.D., professor of exercise science at the University of South Carolina."

I'll keep sharing in the comments below!

Today at gym, IPL was going on the treadmill screen that I had got on and that I saw cheerleaders and that then thought of reading more about them since the little IPL that I've seen including due to being very busy, I've mostly seen international girls and that some weeks ago a girl at a dance school in Delhi had asked the salsa dance teacher whether he could help her work at IPL as a cheerleader on which I had also told her that I could try to find for her on how she could perhaps do that but that we didn't interact since then because I haven't been able to go to that dance school since then including due to being very busy. 

It's awesome that we've international girls including due to reasons mentioned in the article and that I wish that besides from a few nations mentioned in the article, even girls from North America and other parts of Europe and also Asia come to India as cheerleaders! There're several things of value mentioned in the article http://post.jagran.com/three-cheers-for-indian-culture-say-ipls-foreign-cheerleaders-1334241437 I also wish that several Indian girls if they want to then get awesome opportunities like these including internationally to perform as cheerleaders at top sporting events!
