3rd Regional Course on Nutrition in Emergencies (NiE-3)

Emergencies put affected populations at a much higher risk of becoming malnourished, and this in turn leads to an increase in disease and death. Yet, malnutrition is not an inevitable consequence of emergencies; effective strategies exist for preventing and treating malnutrition in these settings. Implementing such strategies requires people on the ground who can anticipate and respond to nutritional needs of communities, even when working in demanding and constantly changing environments. It also requires coordinated action by those working in a range of sectors, including health, food security, livelihoods, water, sanitation and hygiene and logistics.

Nutrition plans reveal stunted growth

Belgaum tops the list with 7,587, followed by Raichur (6,089), Bellary (5,258), Koppal (4,496), Gulbarga (4,436) and Bidar (1,216). Those figures, however, contrast with the data provided by Karnataka minister for women and child development Umashree in the assembly on July 22, that the state has only 3,549 children suffering from malnutrition. Though more than 90% of kids under the age of six are in areas covered by anganwadis, only 36% of them actually received services of some kind from these centres, according to UWBe. The government is doing its bit as far as spending money on various schemes is concerned.

Survey: Employer health plan costs rose modestly in 2012

The relatively slow rate of growth in costs also means fewer plans will be subject to a special tax on high-cost Cadillac plans, which takes effect in 2018, the journal Health Affairs said in its breakdown of key findings. According to Kaiser , 149 million non-elderly Americans are covered by employer-based plans. Notably, the survey found lower-wage workers tended to shell out more in worker contributions for their coverage than workers at higher-wage firms did. This underscores how much, sometimes, lower-wage workers struggle, said Gary Claxton, a vice president at Kaiser .

Succession, health doubts loom over new Mugabe term in Zimbabwe

There was speculation at the time that Mugabe penalized Mnangagwa for his leadership ambitions and that Mujuru’s husband, ex-army commander Solomon Mujuru, had prevailed on the president to promote his wife. This week, breaking with party tradition that individuals do not actively promote themselves for leadership, Mujuru attacked party rivals and presented herself as the moderate leader ZANU-PF needs after Mugabe, local media reported. “We know that the president will soon be 90 and God might decide to call him … I am best placed to succeed Mugabe if he departs whether by natural wastage or voluntary retirement,” she told a private weekly newspaper in surprisingly frank comments. ZANU-PF insiders say Mujuru may have been frustrated by Mugabe’s statement that he plans to serve his full term to 2018. Far from mellowing his anti-Western and nationalist rhetoric, Mugabe has told his critics since the election to “go hang” and promised to increase the pace of “indigenization” policies forcing foreign-owned firms to sell majority stakes to black Zimbabweans.

Postal health plan would save USPS money, but workers could pay the price

USPS, which lost $15.9 billion last year, would likely realize large financial gains from its proposed health care plan, primarily by increasing retirees use of Medicare, GAO said. Yet, some elements of USPSs proposal would add uncertainties that could reduce funds available for its employees and retirees future health care. GAO listed three points in the USPS proposal that could lead to less money being available for employee and retiree health care. The Postal Service plan to invest health-plan funds in something other than U.S. Treasury securities increases risk. Investments may experience losses in a market downturn and would thus have reduced assets available for health care. It is not fiscally prudent for USPS officials to spend health-fund money for other purposes when the fund has more money than is needed, as they have suggested.

Fitness does not mean having eight packs: Shaleen Malhotra

He says, “Being fit is a state of mind it’s not important for an actor to be physically fit even if his character does not demand. More than anything else it’s a person’s personal wish how he would want to look. I personally feel that I feel good when am both physically fit and mentally fit and stable to do my work with full efficiency, it’s also a feel-good factor and being physically fit doesn’t mean having a eight pack abs and bulging muscles and am not saying because I don’t have them as of now it varies from person to person how he interprets his fitness and how he wants to see himself. Martial arts is something that really attracts me and is also a stress buster and a superb way of being fit while learning a new art.” Shaleen, tells us that a role is a role whether its on TV, stage or on the big screen.

“It’s pre-season, you’ve got to get your players fit, so it is a plus that he is getting a bit of a go tonight.” Hodgson insisted Moyes fully supported his decision to select Rooney, but he admitted he was determined to avoid over-working the former Everton star. “We have been in constant contact with Manchester United and they were happy for Wayne Rooney to play, but we have to be careful with him,” Hodgson said. Given his lack of match practice, it was inevitable Rooney, often a sluggish performer when returning from injury, would find it difficult to stamp his authority on proceedings. His first contribution was to completely miscue an attempted shot as he met a Leighton Baines cross at the near post in the opening moments. He showed flashes of inspiration, clipping two perfectly-weighted passes into Theo Walcott in the penalty area, but his touch let him down too often and betrayed his rustiness. When Rooney finally got a shot away in the closing stages of the half the 20-yard strike never seriously threatened to beat Allan McGregor as it curled harmlessly wide.

Smartphones become fitness coaches with new wearable activity trackers

To that end, the company has built an entire platform (called Anytime Health ) for clients to track their progress and connect with other members. Ideally, the Anytime Health platform is more than a series of tools to download new workouts and track food, though it has those in droves: Its an ecosystem of gym-goers and franchise operators to share their progress and exchange feedback on the Anytime Fitness experience. Runyon is hoping the site can engage clients beyond their weekly sweat sessions, something few fitness brands have been able to accomplish. We have a five year plan to really get outside our clubs, its one of our two main goals including expansion.

‘DWTS’ fave Louis Van Amstel joins the dance-fitness scene with LaBlast

Dance Champion and coach Louis Van Amstel has created a new dance fitness program which encompasses many favorite ballroom dance rhythms.

Snoring, mouth-breathing tots more likely to develop behavioral problems

Snoring: A New Tip-Off To Stroke and Heart Disease

By study’s end, the researchers found children whose sleep-disordered breathing peaked at 6 or 18 months old were between 40 and 100 percent more likely to develop behavioral problems by age 7, compared with kids who breathe normally during sleep. What’s more, kids who had the worst behavioral problems had breathing problems throughout their infancy, which peaked when the child was 30 months old. “This is the strongest evidence to date that snoring, mouth breathing, and apnea [abnormally long pauses in breathing during sleep] can have serious behavioral and social-emotional consequences for children,” study author Dr. Karen Bonuck, professor of family and social medicine and of obstetrics & gynecology and women’s health at Einstein, said in written statement . “Parents and pediatricians alike should be paying closer attention to sleep-disordered breathing in young children, perhaps as early as the first year of life.” According to the American Academy of Otolaryngology-Health and Neck Surgery, nearly one in 10 children snore regularly and 2 to 4 percent have sleep apnea. Common causes of sleep-disorder breathing are enlarged tonsils or adenoids. What does snoring have to do with bad behavior?

Snoring Can Affect The Carotid Artery

The study which has been submitted to the journal The Laryngoscope, will be presentedin Scottsdale, Arizona on Friday at the 2013 Combined Sections Meeting of the Triological Society . The researchers looked at the carotid arteries in snorers and found increased thickening of the artery walls, indicating damage already setting in. The researchers suggested that the damage could be due to the trauma and inflammation caused by the vibrations of snoring. However, previous research on the connection between sleep apnea and artery disease has found a reverse connection the arterial damage comes first, lowering the amount of oxygen in the blood, leading to breathing interruptions. It could be that thickening of the arteries is contributing to the snoring as well, not just the other way around.

Yourwellness Magazine Follows Up Launch of Anti-Snoring Device

Hungarian researchers in 2008 reported in the journal Sleep that loud snorers are considerably more likely to develop stroke and heart disease compared to those who never or very rarely snore . Their study, involving 12,643 Hungarian adults, found that about 40% of males and 24% of females snore regularly. Snoring causes cardiovascular disease, long before OSA does OSA ( obstructive sleep apnea ) has been linked to the development of cardiovascular disease, as well as some other illnesses. The scientists believe that for cardiovascular disease, the problem probably starts with snoring, long before OSA sets in. So far, very few studies have demonstrated an association between snoring and cardiovascular disease risk. Dr.

Snoring May Be a Warning of Serious Health Risk

Australian researchers conducted a long-term study of nearly 400 adults and found no increased risk of cardiovascular disease or death from snoring. Other studies have suggested that snoring is associated with other risk factors for cardiovascular disease, but that there is no direct relationship between snoring and cardiovascular problems. Among these risk factors are obesity, smoking and alcohol consumption. Still other research indicates a more direct link between snoring and cardiovascular disease. This study conducted in Hungary found increased risk of cardiovascular disorders among men and women who snore. Researchers in this study adjusted for other common risk factors, such as obesity, in order to isolate the effect of snoring on cardiovascular health. The latest research appears to offer new evidence of a direct connection between snoring and the development of cardiovascular problems.

Perhaps you spent the night tossing and turning, fighting for space on the bed or struggling to tune out the distractions. One of those distractions might just be you. Snoring by both you and your partner may not only be keeping you up at night but it could also be contributing to problems with your health. David Jack, a wellness coach and contributing editor at Mens Health Magazine, says that many couples that experience inadequate sleep as a result of one persons snoring often find larger problems in the relationship.

It can even be a bit of problem if you snore a many people are known to wake themselves up with their own snoring.

Cleanse your digestive system the easy way by eating kitchari

Parts of the Digestive System

Ayurvedic doctors swear by this hearty dish made of basmati rice, mung dal, and aromatic Indian herbs; because it is super easy to digest, highly nourishing, and purifying, it is the ideal food for cleansing an overworked digestive system clogged up by fats and chemical-laden processed foods. According to Ayurveda, India’s ancient wholistic healing system, proper digestion is essential to good health. Eating kitchari for a period of time gives the digestive system the break it needs for it to devote itself to healing. This staple of the Ayurvedic diet is eaten regularly (as the sole food in a mono-diet cleanse) and as part of a Panchakarma (a comprehensive Ayurvedic detoxification program that uses techniques such as oil massage, sweating, and enema to evacuate toxic materials from the body). Dr. Vasant Lad’s mini-Panchakarma cleanse consists mostly of eating kitchari for a few days along with ghee (clarified butter), another healing food that Ayurvedic practitioners believe increases agni, the internal fire that powers digestion and metabolism. With many years of trial and error to its credit, Ayurveda has demonstrated that simple combination to effectively detoxify the body.

A series of muscular contractions, called peristalsis, transports food through the rest of the system. The esophagus empties into the stomach. The stomachs gastric juice, which is primarily a mix of hydrochloric acid and pepsin, starts breaking down proteins and killing potentially harmful bacteria. After an hour or two of this process, a thick semi-liquid paste called chyme forms. At this point the pyloric sphincter valve opens and chyme enters the duodenum, where it mixes with digestive enzymes from the pancreas and acidic bile from the gall bladder. The next stop for the chyme is the small intestine, a 20-foot (6-meter) tube-shaped organ where the majority of the absorption of nutrients occurs.

Digestive System: Facts, Function & Diseases

What about coffee, which is high in caffeine yet always seems to help us “go?” King says coffee is powerful for triggering peristalsis — the term for movement of food through the intestines — it does contain caffeine, which means it can still cause reflux. But it could help someone who is struggling with constipation, she notes. WORST: Acidic Foods Like Soda Like spicy and caffeinated foods, acidic picks like soda can also trigger reflux, King says. WORST: Foods High In Saturated Fat Fatty foods can induce heartburn and diarrhea due to poor absorption of fat, Bechtold says. King adds that you can tell if your diet contains too many high-fat foods because your stool will float to the top of the toilet.

Content about Digestive system

Peristalsis is the process of moving food forward within the canal. This is done within the small and large intestines. The outermost layer of the alimentary canal is the serous layer, or serosa. It serves as a protective covering and secretes serous fluid so that the abdominal organs can move freely within the abdomen. Accessory Organs The digestive system also consists of accessory organs including the salivary glands, gallbladder, liver, and pancreas. Salivary glands secrete saliva into the mouth. Saliva contains enzymes that begin chemical digestion.

What Can I do About My Husband’s Snoring?

Stop Snoring Indianapolis are simply the best

Dr. Hibberd’s answer: Snoring usually reflects some degree of airway obstruction. Be sure his doctor is aware of this. Appropriate screening for sleep apnea is advisable, especially if your husband has pauses in breathing, awakens at night, or if he seems tired or has a headache in the morning. Sleep apnea is a very serious life-threatening condition that is responsible for significant adverse effects, including stroke, heart attack, and even sudden death when untreated. Your doctor may elect weight management or other interventional management strategies.

Sleep apnea should be evaluated by a medical professional. A new study in the International Journal of Prosthodontics reports on the efficacy of an oral device individuals can wear while sleeping to help eliminate snoring. The device, called a mandibular repositioner appliance, was found to be helpful in reducing snoring and treating obstructive sleep apnea. Some people find the use of such devices to be uncomfortable or otherwise undesirable. Obstructive sleep apnea is not the only cause of snoring. Other factors, such as being overweight, alcohol consumption, allergies, cold or flu, sleep positions, abnormal anatomy of the mouth and/or sinuses, or a combination of these options, may be involved.

Restrictive dieting harms your health in seven major ways

Why Dieting Must Die

Rebound overeating It’s expected that you will use your willpower to overcome cravings while dieting. Yet in fact, cravings are actually the body’s way of saving itself from what it perceives as starvation and malnutrition. In the face of continued dieting, your body will continually escalate food cravings until they’re too loud to ignore. This can happen as early as a few weeks into dieting.

For a final example, if you actually weight 170 lbs the scale will show your weight anywhere from 161.5 lbs to 178.5 lbs. Can you begin to imagine how you would feel seeing your weight bounce around like that. What if is says, 170 lbs? It means it got lucky that day. This is true of all scales, they will tend to weigh you close to your real weight, but the scale is not broken if it gives you some crazy number, as long as that crazy number is within 1%. Read the box The reason that doctor-style scales cost so much is that because an error of 0.1% requires more expensive manufacturing that an error of 1%. When you buy a bathroom scale, read the box and find the error value.
