10 Shocking facts behind the sweetness of sugar

10 Shocking facts behind the sweetness of sugar
At the time of drinking tea, coffee, or even during cooking, it feels incomplete if it does not insert sugar in it. But unfortunately, most people tend to consume a sugar in excess amount. Without realizing it anyway, there are some things which enough shocking about sugar.

Here are ten things the surprising that are stored behind sweetness of sugar, such as:

1. Sugar can damage the heart

Although already known that excess sugar can increase the risk of heart disease, a study in the Journal of the American Heart Association in 2013 show is strong evidence that sugar can really affect the pumping mechanism of the heart and increase the risk of heart failure. The study found a molecule of sugar as well as starch called glucose of metabolic glucose 6-phosphate (G6P) which is responsible the changes in protein on the heart muscle. In the end, the protein changes it is can resulted heart failure. Approximately half of the people diagnosed with heart failure die in time of 5 years.

2. Sugar can weaken the brain

A 2009 study found a positive relationship between sugar consumption and aging cells which can result simple things such as wrinkles or even of chronic diseases. But there is another proof, more worrying that sugar can affect the aging brain. Studies in 2012 show that excess sugar consumption associated with reduced memory and overall cognitive health.

3. Sugar 'hidden' in foods that do not you think

Many people try to avoid foods that contain a lot of sugar such as cakes, soft drinks, and candy. But, without realizing it, some one's favorite foods also contain a lot of sugar. For example, tomato sauce, pickled food, fat free sauce, carbonated water, crackers, and bread. Specifically sugar add fat in the abdomen.

4. Sugar is the real silent killer

Sugar turns out to be the highest silent killer. A 2008 study found that excessive fructose consumption is associated with leptin resistance condition, a hormone that tells a person at the time of the body already enough get food intake. With the disruption of the hormone leptin, then you could consume food more a lots and culminate in obesity. Sugar is called the silent killer because of the disruption of the hormone leptin did not show any symptoms. If in the last year gain weight and you do not know the cause, you should check how much fructose that is consumed.

5. Sugar is associated with production of cancer cells and affect the survival of cancer cells

Sugar is closely associated with insulin. At the time of consuming excess sugar, the body will experiencing a condition called insulin resistance. The relationship between insulin resistance and cancer already noted in the literature. A study in 2013 found that the sugars in the intestine trigger the formation of a hormone called GIP. GIP controlled β-catenin protein that is really dependent on sugar levels and at times can increase pancreatic insulin that is released.

The researchers found that β-catenin maybe actually affect susceptibility to the formation of cancer cells. Further research has found a negative relationship between high sugar and starch intake with a survival rate of patients with breast cancer and colon cancer.

6. Sugar addiction can be because of genetic factors

A recent study involving 579 people show that those who have a genetic alteration in a hormone called ghrelin consume more a lots sugar than which have other gene variations. Ghrelin is a hormone that tells the brain at the time of the body is hungry. Researchers think that genetic components that influence the release of ghrelin more a lots maybe associated with the amount of sugar that is consumed.

7. Sugar and alcohol have the same liver toxic effects

Study in 2012 in the journal nature shows proof that fructose and glucose have a toxic effect on the liver as the metabolism of ethanol. Ethanol in alcoholic drinks has a similarities with the metabolic pathways that is done by fructose. In addition it, the sugar also increase the risk of several chronic conditions that are also caused by alcohol. If your body stay slim, it does not mean you are immune from liver damage caused by fructose. A study in 2013 found that liver damage can occur without excess calories or weight gain.

8. Sugar is specifically cause fat in abdominal

Levels of obesity in adolescents already increased threefold in the last 30 years. One of the factors that appears to play an important role in child obesity and adolescent is the accumulation of fat in the abdominal area. Why? one of the causes maybe because of the many consumption of fructose-rich drinks. The studies in 2012 found that children with excessive intake of fructose (not glucose) cause the development of visceral fat cells that can make a big abdominal with the risk of heart disease and diabetes are more big too.

9. Excess sugar are especially in the drink can shorten life

A study in 2013 estimated that 180,000 deaths worldwide related to sweet drinks. United States itself, accounted for 25,000 deaths in 2012. The study authors conclude that death is closely related to sweet drinks and risk of chronic diseases such as diabetes, cancer, and heart disease.

10. Sugar makes fat

You probably already know that too many calories from any source will cause fat deposits if the calories are not burned. But if sugar is consumed excessive whereas the other nutrient are less then calories in the body increases, the glycemic index increase up to your body be fat. Simple sugars from milk or fruit can be a option of sugar intake better.

These are some of the animals are:


1. Poisonous frogs
Dangerous animals that his poison can be used for medicine
Poisonous frogs
Poisonous frogs secrete a neurotoxin is called batrachotoxin through his pores. This substance does not appear directly from the body, but rather from food eaten. Usually these toxins smeared into arrows for hunting and war.

However, the researchers believe toxic compounds in the frog could be used to treat heart attacks and potentially save lives. Batrachotoxin also potentially be used in anesthesia, however further research is still needed.












2. Scorpion
Dangerous animals that his poison can be used for medicine
Scorpion
These animals use the poison to capture prey, dispels rivals during the breeding season and fight bigger predators. One stings alone can make people experiencing heart failure and lung damage.

Researchers at the University of Alabama at Birmingham have found that scorpion toxins could potentially be used to treat brain cancer. When a medicine are made ​​from scorpion venom is injected to the brain cancer patients, poison destroys cancer cells and letting healthy cells.











 3. Shells clam cone

This clams have a unique colored shells with intricate patterns. These animals have organs resemble arm that equipped with sharp teeth and poisonous. This arm is used to immobilize and kill prey.

The shellfish poison it is called conotoxin. Turns studies have found these toxins could potentially be used as a paregoric that is not make addiction. In 2005, pharmaceutical companies in Ireland, has been marketing the painkillers made ​​of these toxins called Prialt.











 4. Viper snake

"We've done various of activities including prevention, increase research, as well as cooperating with governments in several countries, but the most main is need for cooperation with the community. For that we conduct this seminar," said Prof. Dr. Tjandra Yoga Aditama as Director General of Disease Control and Environmental Health (DG P2PL) Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia.

In commemorating the 4th year of world hepatitis day, held seminars for increase the introduction of hepatitis in the community.

This seminar with the theme is 'Care for Hepatitis' Know, Prevent, and Treat is housed in the room building mena Prof J Adyatma MoH Block C 2nd floor, Jl HR Rasuna Said Kav Block X.5. 4-9 brass, Jakarta on Monday (08/04/2013).

Well, This are the types of hepatitis and his transmission:

1. Hepatitis A: Hepatitis A is an inflammation of the liver caused by the hepatitis A virus, including Picornaviridae which is an RNA virus. This virus characteristically are resistant to acidic, thermostable and resistant to bile. Transmission usually occurs by the fecal-oral (enter in the digestive tract through food and drink which contaminated feces sufferers hepatitis A virus).

2. Hepatitis B: Hepatitis B is a DNA virus. This virus beside infects humans, can also infect chimpanzees. hepatitis B virus can be found in body fluids (blood, saliva, sperm fluids and vaginal), but not all have high levels of virus which infectious. In general, can occur horizontally or vertically (at the time of transmission the perinatal, such as mother to her newborn child).

Transmission through parenteral such as: joint use personal tools sufferers (toothbrushes, razors) also hypodermic needles that is not sterile.

4. Hepatitis D: Hepatitis D virus this is an RNA virus with a defect, meaning this virus is not able to be replicate with perfectly without the help of another virus, ie virus Hepatitis B. Transmission is with follows the journey of hepatitis B disease (parenteral), meaning if the virus Hepatitis B acute that suffered recover, then the VHD will also be lost.

5. Hepatitis E: Hepatitis E is caused by the Hepatitis E virus, a RNA virus which spherical shaped. This virus was initially is called as the cause of enterically transmitted non-A non-B Hepatitis (ET-NANB). VHE is transmitted through lane the fecal-oral.

Half of the participants are descendants of European-American and some other are African-American or indigenous population from South Africa.

From it, researchers found that the bigger the volume of the nasal cavity, then the greater his maxillary sinus or sac on each side of the nose which is located under the eyes, in both populations. It shows that the maxillary sinus was plays an important role in forming the nose shape variation. According to researchers seem this sinus provide a separate room for the nose.

In addition researchers also found that it there is related to a person's face shape overall. However, when researchers found a number of participants who his face almost the same size, maxillary sinus seen giving a real difference between the participants of European ancestry with African ancestry.

Because the maxillary sinus of participants descendants from European 36 percent bigger than Africa because the Europeans tend to have nose shape which more narrow. "Variations in the nose, this is seems related with the process of person's adaptation towards climate her residence, thing this because the nose must can heat and humidify air that we breathe with good," said Holton.

"That's, why when living in the area that cold climate is fortunately the people who have a nose more narrow so that when he breathes (Inhale), will more much air which enters and make contact with the mucosal surface of the nose that gave him humidity. Nose which more narrow that is which maximize the surface area of the mucosa so that they can keep survive in areas with low temperatures, "he continued.

The study has been published in the journal The Anatomical Record.

The blood group can determine sports that match for your body

The blood group can determine sports that match for your body
The blood group
Blood type is not only important known for the purpose of blood transfusion only. Recently known apparently the blood group also can determine sports what that match with the body.

"Every blood type is genetically reflection of your own," said Dina Khader, a registered dietitian and nutrition consultant in Mt. Kisco, New York, USA.

"As a result, the food that you eat and the exercise you do all must be different. Thing this makes sense," augment him.

As is known, there are four types of blood groups A, B, O, and AB. Group of this blood is made up of different antigens, and react to the body's immune system.

Based on the research of Dr. James D'Adamo, author of the book,'Food that is Right for Your Blood Type', each the blood group has been evolved over the centuries and therefore he has a different reaction to the food consumed and exercise that is done.

Well, here is the type of sports that can be done accordance with your blood type:

1. Blood Type A

In people with blood type A, the more he is doing intense exercise only will add to the stress on the muscle. "Muscles on the blood group A will tighten and will produce a lot of lactic acid if given training. This also will increase cortisol in themselves so that eventually they will feel very tired and even will gain weight," said Dina.

People with blood type A is more suitable given exercises such as yoga, tai-chi or exercise the like.

2. Blood Type B

Different with the blood group A, those who have blood type B should be balanced. Blood type B is very good if you do yoga or some exercise that rather heavy. Lifting weights and cardio exercise is very good for them.

3. Blood Type AB

According to Dina, people with blood type AB must do a combination of aspects of the exercise performed blood group A and B.

4. Blood Type O

People who have blood type O will be very evolve if the doing exercises an intense. "The more intense the exercise they do they will feel her body better and they will get better results are also," said Dina.

They get a good result because can lose weight more much with exercise performed. Other than that a lot of burning fat to be energy. "This is a release of endorphins that is big in the brain," said Dina.

With doing rigorous program during 6 weeks, as well as diet and proper exercise, a person will get maximum results without the need to feel stress in the formation of the body.

Human teeth stone age more healthy, than human teeth in the modern era

Although the human who living in the stone age are not yet know with toothpaste and the dentist, teeth and mouth turned out much better than the human of age now. This is because changes in bacteria that inhabit the human mouth in every generation.

Researchers said that the human of today, a lot more facing Health problems the mouth than people who live in the stone age. Decline in oral health over the last 7,500 years is due to the change due to the evolution of human oral bacteria and industrialization.

As quoted from HealthDay, Thursday (21/02/2013), the results of the study are published February 18 in the journal Nature Genetics, who wrote that the changes in oral bacteria has been cause a variety of chronic oral health problems.

"The composition of oral bacteria have changed significantly with the familiar agricultural science 150 years ago," said Alan Cooper, leader of the study and a professor at the University of Adelaide's Australian Centre for Ancient DNA.

After human know sugar and refined flour in the food industry, the researchers noticed that as there is a diversity of bacteria that inhabit the human mouth. The existence of various bacteria, allowing the human experiencing some problems in the mouth, such as cavities.

The research team also looked at the DNA of tartar (dental plaque) 34 primordial man skeletons have been preserved. Primordial man skeleton it is found in northern Europe. Of these samples, researchers can analyze how oral bacteria have changed since the Stone Age, a period of hunting and gathering in the middle ages, on the period where humans began to recognize food.

"Dental plaque is the only object of research that is easily accessible for know the bacteria that inhabit the human mouth in the past. Genetic analysis of plaque can show the impact of eating patterns, health changes, and evolution of the genomes of pathogenic oral health in the stone age it," said Christina Adler, author of the study from the University of Sydney.

Cooper added that the changes caused by the bacteria are also the evolution of human behavior and the consumption of certain foods that have a negative impact on oral health. The study was expanded to include other periods, other regions of the world, and the species of other primordial man.

But according to Professor Andrew Lotery, ophthalmologist at the University of Southampton, it happens because of muscle fatigue on the eyelid. If it appears too often, it could also be caused by irritation in the surface of the eye and the conjunctiva membrane.

Blepharospasm or weakening eye muscles can also cause a twitch at the age of 50-70 years. Similarly, the side effects of botox injections, can also trigger twitch. Even drinking too much coffee can also be a cause.

2. Twitch in the neck and head

In the medical world is known as spasmodic torticollis or cervical dystonia. Twitch in the neck or head is often caused by uncomfortable sleeping positions triggering neck muscle injury. In these conditions a bit heavy, neck and head can suddenly turned without desired when writing or reading.

Sometimes, Botox injections could also cause side effects like this. Putting a finger on the chin or face can ease it although there is no scientific explanation

3. Twitch on one side of the face

Dr. Raj Kapoor, consultant neurologist from the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery refer to these symptoms as hemifacial spasm. The cause is irritation of spontaneous facial nerve. Could be due to pressure on nerves and blood vessels of the face, or other unknown causes. Bell's palsy or temporary paralysis on one nerve can also trigger it.

Generally not hazardous and can be appeased with reducing stress. Get enough rest can also prevent the emergence of a twitch on one side of the face.

4. Extreme twitch in the foot

It often happens during sleep, suddenly leg kick out of control. Sort of twitch but an extreme version because if regarding the specified object can be very painful. Though no injury, sensation of twitch in the foot feels very uncomfortable and disturbing to sleep.

Called periodic limb movement, this disorder could appear repeatedly every 20-40 seconds. The impact was reducing the quality of sleep. In 60 percent of cases, reduce the consumption of coffee and pain relievers can relieve symptoms.

5. Twitch in the arm after sport

This condition is called fasciculation and most occur in the arms, although it can also occur in other parts of the body. The cause is fatigue on the muscle fibers. Movement of the most trigger twitch in the arm are bench presses, pull-ups and press-ups.

Sports health expert, Dr. Roger Henderson suggests there is a pause, minimum of 48 hours in each weight training. At least if exercise every day, then the in 2 days consecutive do not exercise on the same muscle.

6. Twitch in the palm of your hand


Put a piece of paper in hand with the palm facing up. Often occurs small vibration on paper and it is generally harmless. Dr. Raj Kapoor, consultant neurologist from the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery said it was triggered by stress and lack of sleep.

Side effects of some asthma medications, can also cause hand twitching like that. Similarly, mild stimulants such as coffee.

7. Twitch in arm

The arms are stretched, such as holding a newspaper, for example, often great tremble without desired. A kind of twitch, but just when the arm stretched and will back to normal after being rested.

Called essential tremor, and often occurs at age 40 years upward. The cause is an error signal from the brain into specific muscles. Alcohol consumption is also often exacerbate this condition. can not be cured, but if it is very disturbing can be relieved with drugs beta-blockers.
