Vegetarian diet to help relieve rheumatoid arthritis

Health for human | It turned out that a gluten-free vegetarian diet of nuts, sunflower seeds, fruits and vegetables offer protection against heart attacks and strokes for people who suffer from rheumatoid arthritis. It seems that this diet lowers cholesterol and also affect the immune system so that alleviate some symptoms associated with joint pain.

Researchers writing in the journal Arthritis Research and Therapy, 18 March 2008 said that this finding is in line with previous findings that a vegetarian diet regimen results in patients with arthritis who showed a decrease in blood pressure, decreased body mass index and lower incidence of cardiovascular disease.

About 20 million people have rheumatoid arthritis in the entire world, an autoimmune disease caused our bodies confused recognize foreign material and attacks its own healthy tissues.

In this study, Johan Frostegard and colleagues provide a gluten-free vegetarian food for the 38 volunteers and 28 other people are given a balanced diet but non-vegetarian diet for one year.

People with a diet without animal products and gluten, commonly found in wheat, rye and barley, have cholesterol levels of 'bad' or LDL (low density lipoprotein) lower. Cholesterol 'bad' can inhibit arterial blood vessels. They also lost weight while the volunteers with no other dietary changes. The researchers said further studies are needed to determine the role of different foods can have protective benefits against heart attacks and strokes.

In March 2008, researchers from Finland said that generic pills 1 time a week to handle the disease, were significantly lower risk of heart attacks and strokes in people with this condition. Recent studies also indicate that the newer drugs that block the inflammatory protein called tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is also effective to reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes in people with this condition.

The researchers said in its report, the evidence suggests that LDL may be involved in the activation of the immune system is wrong. The volunteers with a vegetarian diet have levels of C reactive protein (CRP) is lower, which is an indicator of levels of inflammation in the body and are associated with heart disease.

NATURAL HEALING MEDICINE CORONARY HEART DISEASE

Health for human | My first experience of a little story that I experienced on my idap disease is Coronary Heart Disease (CHD), at the age of 33 years old I had a heart attack while driving in the car. This is how I feel without any specific complaints in advance but, in fact my sudden shortness of breath with the cessation of breathing a few seconds (do not reach 1 minute) followed by back pain and a cold sweat off his entire body, I had time to panic I thought dying will fetch me, but Praise God still protects and gives me the opportunity to live in the moment. Because pain and shortness of breath that does not stop a few hours, my wife and I decided to go to one of the private hospital of international standard in Bandung (Bandung happened to my people)

at that time I dealt with the ER doctor. The doctor asked me what happened to my wife, immediately take action also in the stomach and given injections of drugs that have been opened recently placed under the tongue that I knew it was to thin the blood also to dilate coronary blood vessels in the heart, then installed the tool ECG in ECG after I tested positive for CHD, because my wife did not believe I am finally on the ECG is the second time, and the results remain positive CHD.

To further make sure I was rushed to the ICU for treatment and better outcomes. After blood was taken in the laboratory, but the result showed very high levels of total cholesterol where LDL levels (bad cholesterol) and high levels of HDL (good cholesterol) is very low, normal triglycerides, CKMB levels are very high anyway. These results are enough to prove that I am suffering from CHD.

My doctor advised me to dikateterisasi for the pairs of ring (ring) in the blood vessels are blocked, at that time in 2008 for the cost of a drug ring plus have to pocket 35 million dollars, because my curiosity dikateterisasi proceed with above instructions your doctor if the blockage is less than 40% then no need to be installed simply by taking the drug ring and a healthy lifestyle. My guess would be missed if the blockage of blood vessels that I experienced there was a five-point with each - each 90% in fact there are already 100%. Automatic immediately anyway I thought about trying to multiply it cost 35 million dollars multiplied by 5 rings to be paid, instead of calm even so stressed I had to pay 175 million dollars plus the cost of care has not been long in the hospital, I finally decided not to proceed with its own mounting ring (the ring) had been at the heart of assuming a very large cost and outage I haven't enough money for it all.

Coming home from the hospital I was advised consume the drugs doctors prescribed which must be redeemed approximately 1.5 million for each month.

Health for human |  Apparently eating fruits are very beneficial for health, including preventing heart and blood vessel disease. you need to know the latest research indicates, consume in the form of juice or fruit juice, it gives greater efficacy than eating it in the form intact.

Dr. Decorde Kelly of the University of Montpellier France and his team report on a study to prove that peratmakalinya processing the fruit into juice or fruit juice has important implications for health. So far, said Decorde, people eat fruit in the form of processed products like juice, but information on the nutritional composition limited to the shape intact.

To analyze the extent to which the process of "Juicing" This affects the content of powerful antioxidants called phenols in fruit, Decorde and his team carried out tests using hamster.

The animals were divided into groups and let them have a diet with high levels of fat and cholesterol to trigger the onset of atherosclerosis or the formation of fatty plaques in arteries that can cause heart attacks and strokes. Groups of hamsters fed no apple, purple grape, apple juice, grape juice and water.

Of animals A control group to undergo a normal diet. The amount of fruit the hamsters consumed balanced view of human normal consumption averages about three apples and three series of wine per day. Hamsters given juice drank the equivalent of four glasses per day for a person weighing 70 kilograms (154 pounds).

Apples and grapes according to the study the researchers have same phenol content, while the purple grape juice had 2.5 times more phenols than apple juice.

At the end of the study revealed, compared with animals given water, fed hamsters the fruit and juice had lower cholesterol levels, less oxidative stress, and less fat accumulation in the vessels of the aorta, the main channel of supplying oxygenated blood throughout the body. Purple grape juice was recorded to give the greatest influence followed by purple grapes, apple juice and fruit.

"These findings indicate that the amount of phenols contained in the diet has a direct effect on its antioxidant properties," wrote the researchers who load their research in Molecular Nutrition and Food Research April 2008 issue.

Other antioxidant compounds in fruits such as vitamin C and carotenoids, could also contribute to their effects. The results of this study said, Decorde, give advice and encouragement that fruit and fruit juices may have significant relevance and could diapliasikan for public health.
