Silkworm carcasses which have been dried and still overgrown with fungi are usually consumed by mixing into the cereal for breakfast. Some people choose to use other means, namely menyeduhnya like tea.

Residents in the vicinity of the Himalayas including Tibet, Nepal and India know this herb for generations since hundreds of years ago. In the local language, silkworm carcasses herb is called yarsagumba or dong Chong Xia Cao.

Yarsagumba is a concoction made from carcasses which had been dried silkworms. Silkworm silk used must come from a height of 3500 meters above sea level and have died of certain fungal infections, because it is said that the fungus is actually more nutritious.

In addition to treat impotence, yarsagumba also useful for treating other diseases. In lower doses, this herb is also used to solve various problems in the respiratory system, especially in asthma attacks or shortness of breath.

Soy consumption reduces risk of lung disease

February 20, 2011 · 0 comments

People who eat lots of soy products not only have better lung function but also are less likely to develop chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and other respiratory symptoms.
The researchers, led by Andy Lee, worked with a team of respiratory physicians to gather 300 patients with COPD of six Japanese hospitals and 340 control subjects matched by age in the same areas as the patients in relation to their consumption of soy. The results of the study of Curtin University of Technology in Australia published in the journal Respiratory Research.
As pointed out by Fumi Hirayama, coauthor of the study, “Soy consumption correlated positively with lung function and was inversely associated with risk of COPD. It has been suggested that flavonoids in soy foods act as an antiinflammatory agent in lungs and that protect against carcinogens snuff for smokers. However, more research is needed to understand the underlying biological mechanism. “
Soy is the basis of many Japanese foods, including tofu, natto, miso soup, sprouts and soy milk. It is claimed that soy foods lower cholesterol and relieve symptoms of menopause. This is the first study to demonstrate the association between the consumption of healthy food and a reduced risk of developing COPD.
COPD is characterized by a progressive decline in lung function and includes chronic bronchitis and emphysema. The smoking of cigarettes in the long run produces almost 90 percent of COPD cases. Research shows only an association between soy consumption and reduced risk of developing the disorder, but the best way to avoid it is still full of snuff refrain.

High Blood Pressure, Migraine Headaches and NUCCA

February 16, 2011 · 0 comments

Recently, we took a look at what the research is showing regarding the connection between the upper cervical spine and blood flow to and from the brain and how that is an important factor in how trauma can induce conditions like Multiple Sclerosis and Migraine Headaches. And how when the traumatically induced upper cervical spine injuries are corrected and the underlying cause is identified frequently all or most of these debilitating conditions go away.

Well now we look at another major health issue in America...High Blood Pressure. In my own office I have seen patients blood pressure drop by over 30 points in the systolic when the upper neck misalignment is corrected.

Looking again at what the Upper Cervical Research Foundation (ucrf.org) found in their research with Phase Contrast Magnetic Resonance Imaging (PC MR). It demonstrated the change in blood flow from the brain in Migraine patients and how all Migraines went away when the upper neck misalignment was corrected...they stated "These results coupled with previously documented normalization of blood pressure in a randomized double-blind study indicate a casual physiologic and measurable effect occurs after the correction of an Atlas misalignment....Possible Atlas misalignment interaction with the Trigeminovascular System via decreased intracranial compliance may produce neural influences on cerebral circulation as proposed by Dr. Goadsby providing impetus for further study..."

So what is the research that they are referring to regarding blood pressure?

Researchers at the Hypertension Center at the University of Chicago Medical Center reported stunning reductions in the blood pressure of patients afflicted with hypertension following NUCCA chiropractic care. In the study - published in the March 2, 2007 issue of The Journal of Human Hypertension and featured on WebMD, Good Morning America and other sources - 50 patients with hypertension were divided into two groups of 25 each. One group of 25 received a NUCCA spinal correction to the atlas vertebra (uppermost bone in the neck). This vertebra holds up the head and only relies on soft tissue to maintain alignment. Misalignment, also known as subluxation, usually goes undiagnosed and causes no pain or discomfort. The other group of 25 received a similar procedure but with no adjustment being given. Researchers called this procedure the "sham adjustment." Since the type of adjustment given was very light force, the patients involved in this study did not know if they were receiving the real or sham adjustments.

After 8 weeks of care, the 25 people in the group receiving the real chiropractic adjustments all showed a significant reduction in blood pressure compared to the group that received the sham adjustment. Those patients who got the real adjustment showed an average of 14 mm Hg greater drop in systolic blood pressure (the top number in a blood pressure count), and an average of 8 mm Hg greater drop in diastolic blood pressure (the bottom blood pressure number) over those who got the fake or sham adjustment. X-rays confirmed that the adjustments actually changed the position of the atlas vertebra among those in the study group. The study leader reported that the procedure had the effect of not one, but two blood pressure medications given in combination. And, his team reported no side effects whatsoever from the adjustment.

So if this NUCCA Procedure has been shown to reduce blood pressure, affect the blood flow from the brain in Migraine patients and influence Multiple Sclerosis and many other conditions that effect millions of Americans...why hasn't hardly anyone heard of it?

Good question...Tell a Friend about NUCCA today!

February 15, 2011 · 0 comments

Boston, hypertension or high blood pressure is a risk factor for heart attack is tricky to control. In addition to medication, blood pressure can also be controlled with good habits that is listening to people vent.

Researchers from the University of Massachusetts, Dr. Thomas Houston revealed that in an experiment done recently. The experiment involved 230 adults with a history of high blood pressure or hypertension.

The volunteers were divided into 2 groups, one of which was given three pieces of DVD that contains the outpouring of the heart (vent) of hypertensive patients about its efforts to maintain health. The other group was also given a DVD, but its content is not related to health.

After 3 months, the researchers found differences in blood pressure profiles in both groups of volunteers. The group who watched the DVD 'vent' on a daily basis have lower blood pressure and controlled than the group who watched a regular DVD.

Volunteer group of people who watch DVDs vent has a systolic pressure from 6.53 to 11.21 points lower than the other groups. As for pressure diastoliknya, the group was observed from 3.05 to 6.43 points lower than other groups.

"I think this study strengthens the evidence that positive communication can help people to more easily control their health," said Dr. Houston as quoted by Time, Tuesday (18/01/2011).

However, the effects of listening to vent for hypertension do not survive in the long run much less permanent. In the 6 months since the experiment was stopped, blood pressure returned volunteers uncontrolled and should be taking drugs to normal.

Beware When Exercising Hard Heart Cramps

· 0 comments

Jakarta, Sports such as football, futsal, badminton, tennis, running track and field sports including examples of hard because it has the explosive movements that can quickly raise the pulse. In order not to cause harm to the body of the sport's match with a dose and your age.


Sports doctor who has extended experience dealing with PSSI and KONI DR.med.Suhantoro, SpKO, FACSM (K) said that sports can cause problems if not done according to the dosage, type of exercise and age.

"People who ignore the problem of safe sport doses according to age, so many cases of people who died after the sport," said DR Suhantoro in discussion with detikHealth, Saturday (05/02/2011).


When people are aged 20-25 years or up to a maximum of 30 years, the body can still do to compensate for a heavy sport activities.

But when one's age is above 30 years then one needs to know the dose and type of exercise is safe according to age.

When exercising, says Dr Suhantoro, heart rate, systolic blood pressure (top), and cardiac output (amount of blood pumped per heart beat) all increase.

Blood flow to the heart, muscles, and skin also increased. As a result, the body's metabolism becomes more active in producing CO2 (carbon dioxide / oxide acid) and H + (proton ion) in the muscle.


Eventually people will breathe faster and deeper to supply more oxygen due to this increased metabolism. But vigorous exercise that makes the body's metabolism can no longer rely solely on the supply of oxygen but the use of biochemical processes.

This biochemical process to produce lactic acid which then enters the bloodstream. This buildup of lactic acid will make the body feel tired during exercise. Oxygen levels are also declining due to the accumulation of carbon dioxide in the blood. If the oxygen down the body's cells would die.

"So there are billions of blood off when you are exercising, because when people exercise the body will become sour, Ph should be around 6.7 to 6.8. But it should be in the alkaline condition of pH 7,"said DR Suhantoro.

There is a threat of death if the Ph of the body during exercise due to exhaustion reached Ph 6.3. This is what causes muscle cramps and cramps occur heart that makes a lot of people having a heart attack after exercising.


The body needs about 30 minutes to neutralize this acid by means of rest. "So that if the body is struggling should rest first, not be forced to run and hold it for recovery," said the doctor Suhantoro who is now 67 years old.

How dose a safe sport?

According to DR Suhantoro safe way is to measure the pulse maximum (DNM). DNM is a maximum pulse rate, calculated with the formula DNM = 220 - age, then multiplied by the intensity of 60-70 percent DNM burn fat.

DR Suhantoro exemplifies the 40-year-old man who when he exercise the DNM is 220-40 = 180. Then the number 180 multiplied by 60 percent to limit light and 70 percent for the upper limit of 108-126 per minute results.


By knowing the pulse, the 40-year-old man who must pause from exercise when his pulse has exceeded 126 per minute. If it still happens is that cramps forced the heart that makes a heart attack.

To calculate your heart rate can be a way to calculate pulse near the hand or a more practical use of existing clock pulse.

"Once again, to note the condition of the heart rate during exercise should not exceed the maximum limit that can harm the heart," remembers Dr. Suhantoro.

If it is felt beyond the dose when running in futsal for example, just give the balls to other people who are still strong. One more moment of rest drink water with a temperature of 15-16 degrees or drinks manisdengan sugar levels from 2.5 to 5 percent. "Drinks that are too cold will be difficult absorbed body because the body temperature after moderate exercise in hot conditions,"explained Dr Suhantoro

However, similar benefits are not found in women. In women, sex flight of increasing the sensitivity of the sense of smell due to the release of the hormone prolactin in addition to immunity.

While researchers from the University of Pennsylvania found that people who have sex 1-2 times a week have levels of antibody immunoglobulin A 30 percent higher than people who rarely have sex.

People who have a healthy heart characteristics are:

1. Having a normal blood pressure, which has a systolic (the upper limit when the heart contractions) 120 mmHg and diastolic (the lower limit when the heart is relaxing) 80 mmHg or often referred to 120/80 mmHg.

2. It has a total cholesterol that is normal under 200 mg / dL and high if above 239 mg / dl. Total cholesterol, LDL (bad) should be below 150 mg / dl. Total cholesterol, HDL (good) must be above 35 mg / dl. Total triglyceride levels should be below 200 mg / dl.

Consult your doctor if you consistently rate above 100 bpm (tachycardia) or below 60 bpm (bradycardia), especially if accompanied by other symptoms such as dizziness, shortness of breath or frequent fainting

To get the maximum heart rate is done by reducing the age from 220. Suppose the age of 40 years, then the maximum amount is 180 bpm.

By doing these simple tests, one can find out whether pulsation jantunya normal or not. It is also useful as an initial diagnosis of the presence or absence of cardiovascular disorders.
