Soybeans and the Menopause of Women

September 1st, 2010 by studtles

The Brazilian medical experts found that the plant hormone called as “isoflavin” in soybean can ease all kinds of the common symptoms of menopause in women. What’s more, it is not the same as the estrogen therapy which is widely used in the medical community recently, because it will not cause any side effects.

The obstetrics and gynecology experts from the Federal University of Sao Paulo in Brazil have carried out follow-up texts on 80 menopausal women for more than 6 months. After the tests, the experts found that, after taking the plant hormone isoflavin, 85% of the subjects have got some improvement on their menopausal symptoms; and for 75% of the women who have taken isoflavin, the cholesterol level in their body have decreased along with the improvement of the menopausal symptoms.

What makes the researchers excited is, isoflavin is effective for the treatment of all the symptoms which are originally cured by estrogen. Although the efficacy of isoflavin is a little lower than estrogen, however, it doesn’t have the side effects as the estrogen.

After women enter in menopause, the function of producing hormone of their body begins to weaken gradually. This can lead to a lot of symptoms such as insomnia, depression, loss of the sclerotin and so on, which will greatly affect the quality of their life. Generally speaking, after taking estrogen, about 90% to 95% of the women can have some improvement on their symptoms during the menopause. But the problem is, estrogen will bring a various kinds of side effects, making the women much easier to suffer from some diseases such as cancer of the uterus or breast cancer.

Researchers have replaced the traditional estrogen with isoflavin, and provided it to the women taking the tests. The results have not found any symptoms of breast or endometrial swelling. As a result, the researchers deducted that, soybean products do not have the side effects and medical risk brought by estrogen.

The researchers also said that, up to now, soybean is one of the foods which have the most complete nutrition and most abundant function. In addition to its high nutritional value, the high-protein component in soybean is also the best substance for the treatment or prevention of cancer, osteoporosis and other diseases. In addition to the large content of protein, soybean is also rich in selenium, which can improve the body’s resistance against diseases. What’s more, the soy saponins contained in soybeans has an inhibiting effect on ADIS virus.

Factors to Consider Before Getting a Wall Mounted Soap Dispenser

August 26th, 2010 by studtles

The wall mounted soap dispenser has become an extremely popular device and is commonly found in most restaurants, hotels and even gas stations. These are a much better hygienic solution compared to using a regular bar of soap which tends to get cross contaminated. Fortunately, these devices are readily available for purchase at online retail stores but be sure to keep these factors in mind.

When getting a dispenser that mounts on the wall, you can choose from either an automatic unit or one that requires you to push a button. The fewer objects you touch generally mean less germs that get spread around so if you are concerned about your health, consider getting a hands free unit. In addition, there are also many different styles available whether you want a chrome or stainless steel finish.

Just be sure that the unit you purchase has a window or a clear reservoir so you can easily determine when you need to refill it. Consider getting a dispenser that is able to hold a decent amount of liquid especially if you plan on having used on a regular basis such as in a restaurant setting. This shouldn’t really be much of a problem though as long as you quickly refill it when it’s getting low.

When searching for a wall mounted soap dispenser, be sure that it also has some type of drip free technology to prevent it from making a mess on your counter or floor. Having to clean up the left over soap can be rather inconvenient at times. Lastly, be sure that the unit is simple to install as there are some that install via double sided tape and others that require you to screw it on the wall.

Baby Backpack Carriers - Need to Be High Quality

August 25th, 2010 by studtles


Image : http://www.flickr.com

It can be difficult to figure out the best baby carrier backpack to buy in the market. While there are many options out there today, not all are the best for you or your child. There can be many issues that people are generally unaware of, and picking a low quality baby carrier can not only be uncomfortable, but can be hazardous to you and your child’s health. Here are some health risks of low quality baby carrier backpacks.

Improper support can cause bad weight distribution on your back when you are carrying your child. This can cause back problems, neck problems, and spinal alignment issues. If your child carrier, backpacks specifically, is uncomfortable you may begin to try and adjust your backpack, this can cause parents to trip, fall, or rattle their child around in their pack. Ultimately this could result in injury to you or your child.

Recently high lead levels were found in many child toys, and did you know that baby backpack carriers fall into that same category according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission? Although low quality baby carrier backpacks can be a health risk (because babies/children tend to put their mouths on the straps, and various pieces of the backpacks) the Consumer Product Safety Commission is allowing until 2010 for companies to comply with their lead standards.

This means that sub-standard child carrier backpacks can still have potentially toxic levels of lead in their materials and still be able to sell them until 2010. Good companies such as Deuter (who have a great line of child carrier backpacks) have already complied with the lead standards and are tested safe. But many have not passed these lead safety standards…

Strapping your child into a backpack is essential to safety, and not all backpacks have a safe, and secure way of doing this. The best thing to do is to find backpacks that have a 5-point harness that is color coded so that parents know which straps to buckle up, so they don’t miss a strap. You don’t want your child coming lose out of the backpack.

There are many other considerations to think about when choosing a baby carrier backpack. That being said, when you find a high quality, well made backpack, from a trusted brand and store. Then you’ll find that baby carrier backpacks are absolutely wonderful, and you will never go back to any other type of carrier ever.

How To Improve Your Odds Of Crash Survival

August 16th, 2010 by admin

You might ask, what does this headline have to do with chiropractic?  It’s often said case management or patient care is much more than just what we do to our patients (such as in chiropractic, applying a spinal adjustment). The patient education portion of our care plan can frequently make or break a successful outcome in a case.  It is the goal of this Health Update to potentially save your life by empowering you with the knowledge needed when it’s time to purchase your next car.  This is about what specific automobile features contribute to crash survival - hence, saving lives!

Did you know the car you choose can improve the odds of crash survival by 400%? In the popular magazine Consumer Reports, they wrote, “Ultimately, safety is active and passive, balancing the ability to avoid an accident and to survive one.” Typically, the first thing we do as consumers when we consider safety in a particular car is to look at the crash-test results.  While this is important, we must first consider the size and weight so we compare crash-test results between cars in the same weight class since statistics show there are two times as many occupant deaths annually in small vs. large cars. Keeping size and weight in the foreground, when evaluating crash-test results, the front and rear end “crumple zone” of the car should be designed to absorb crash forces by buckling and bending in a serious collision. If you’ve ever watched race cars crash, you usually see car parts bend and break off as they bounce off the guard rail or other cars, sometimes to the point where all that is left is the cage surrounding the driver.  Amazingly, the race car driver often climbs out of the cage and walks away, seemingly unharmed.

The next important car feature to consider is a car with a structurally superior passenger compartment. Look for a high quality “restraint system” made up of 3 components: seat belts, airbags, and head restraints. These work together to keep us safe and in place during a crash while the outside of the car crumples, absorbing the energy of the crash.

So where do you look to get this information?  There are several resources available:

  • The NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) tests front end impacts at 35 mph, and in 1997 added side impact tests at 38 mph. They also test for the rollover potential for SUVs and trucks and grade the results for each category from 1 to 5 stars representing the likelihood of suffering a life-threatening injury in a crash.
  • Since 1995, the IIHS (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety) has used a method reviewed by Consumer Reports as being more realistic by crashing only half of the vehicle at similar speeds into fixed barriers, since most crashes are not direct, whole car strikes.
  • Consumer Reports is a 3rd option. They integrate the data from both NHTSA and IIHS and gives us their “CR Safety Assessment,” and run 40 new cars each year through numerous individual tests.

Other important “accident avoiding” features often overlooked include: Tires - greatly impact braking and emergency handling so REPLACE them as needed; Braking-check for the distance required to stop the car at different speeds- the shorter, the better; Emergency Handling-data about accident avoidance and choosing a vehicle with electronic stability control (ESC), especially in SUVs is wise; Acceleration-the quicker a car can get to highway speeds, the better; Driver position and visibility-a good view of the surroundings, especially the “blind spots” is important.  We realize you have a choice in where you go for your health care needs and we truly appreciate your consideration in allowing us to help you.

Fibromyalgia: Dietary Guide

August 16th, 2010 by admin

Fibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic condition affecting multiple body systems is not limited to any one aspect of health. Because of this, there is no ONE diet that works the same for all FM patients. Since most dietary guidelines that address FM are based on general healthy eating principles utilized for many conditions such as hypoglycemia, diabetes, food allergies, headaches, digestive disorders, and fatigue, let’s review some of the most popular and successful dietary approaches that have been reported regarding FM.

Basic Guidelines:

  • Carbohydrates: AVOID all refined carbs (white flour products). Eat whole grain bread, oatmeal, granola, nuts. Avoid artificial sweeteners and limit sugar intake to a max. of 40g/2000 calories. Eat roughly 14 grams / 1000 calories consumed of soluble dietary fiber such as apples, oats, and legumes vs. insoluble fiber such as bran. Your total carb intake from all sources should be between 30-55% of your total calories.
  • Fats: AVOID saturated fats (these clog up circulation, lead to inflammation and pain). That means <10% of total calories consumed, so limit or eliminate foods such as cheese, beef, milk, oils, ice cream, cakes, cookies, mayonnaise, margarine, chips and chicken skin. Eat mono- and poly-unsaturated fats and include regular amounts of omega 3-fats. Eat < 300mg/day of cholesterol; Try to avoid ALL trans fats such as cakes, cookies, crackers, pies, bread, margarine, fried potatoes, chips, shortening. Take omega 3 fatty acids like alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) as these help make other omega 3 fats like EPA and DHA, and are very helpful for the brain. ALA is found in flaxseed, linseed oil, or cod liver oil. Limit total fat intake to 20-35% of calories consumed.
  • Protein: Go easy on red meat as they are high in saturated fat. Instead, eat more fish and vegetable protein (legumes and soybeans are great). When eating meat or poultry, remove all visible fat and skin before eating. Maintain protein at 20-40% of total caloric intake. AVOID: processed meats, especially salt-cured, smoked or nitrate-cured.
  • Fruits & Vegetables: Whole fruits are superior to juices. Include blackberries, strawberries, raspberries, kiwis, peaches, mango, cantaloupe melon and apples. Some FM sufferers cannot tolerate citrus fruits but if you can, fruits like oranges and grapefruits are great. Vegetables are crucial. Good choices include carrots, squash, sweet potato, spinach, kale, collard greens, broccoli, cabbage, and Brussels sprouts. These foods reduce the risk of developing chronic diseases (diabetes, heart disease, stroke and cancers).
  • Dairy Products: Choose reduced or fat-free varieties of cow or soy milk. This also applies to yogurt and cheese.
  • Healthy drinks: Drink 8 glasses of water a day or diluted fruit juices, or herbal teas. Drinking water helps flush out toxins. Avoid coffee, tea, and alcohol as these increase fatigue, increase muscle pain and interfere with normal sleeping patterns. Limit or eliminate alcohol.
  • Healthy Snacks: Chopped vegetables, unsalted nuts and/or seeds; AVOID ALL commercial snack foods (except salt-free air-popped popcorn) as these are high in trans fats & salt. Avoid chocolate and candy.
  • Junk Food: Regular consumption of this is BAD for FM patients due to the high levels of fat, sodium, calories and general lack of nutrition.
  • Artificial Sweeteners: AVOID them! Examples: aspartame, NutraSweet, & saccharine.
  • MSG: (monosodium glutamate (MSG) and Sodium (Salt) can aggravate FM!
  •  QUANTITY: Eat smaller light meals, especially in the evenings.

We recognize the importance of including chiropractic in your treatment planning and realize you have a choice of providers. If you, a friend or family member requires care for FM, we sincerely appreciate the trust and confidence shown by choosing our services and look forward in serving you and your family presently and, in the future.

Simple “On The Go” Low Back Exercise

August 16th, 2010 by admin

            “Doc, I try to do my exercises but I have to hit the ground running in the morning….to get the kids ready for the school bus….I have morning meetings….I’m not a morning person….I’m pulled in 100 directions during the day….I forget about them until I’m in bed….I exercise on my job and that’s enough….”

            I’m sure we’ve all rationalized our inability to keep up with exercises, especially after our episode of low back pain (LBP) subsides. In fact, only about 4% of LBP patients continue doing their exercises after their pain subsides. That means 96% of us with chronic, recurring low back pain DO NOT exercise even though we know we should.  We feel bad, even guilty for not exercising.  So, what can we do to “trick” ourselves into being more compliant with our low back exercises?

            First, let’s accept the fact that most of us cannot consistently “fit in” exercise into our busy schedules.  With that said, the TIMING of when to do the exercise may be more important than even doing them at the same time every day. In other words, do a few exercises when you need them the most. For example, if you’re working at a computer for more than 1 hour, and you start to feel back pain from the prolonged sitting - especially if your work station set up is less than ideal - do one or two sitting exercises right at your work station, BEFORE your back pain gets any worse. If you wait too long, the exercises may not be of much benefit. Setting a timer next to your screen that beeps every hour is a good reminder to do one or two simple exercises and only takes a minute or two.  Many inexpensive digital watches can be set to beep on the hour/every hour or, you can set a “timer” to beep after 60 minutes as a “gentle” reminder.  Some cell phones also have a timer feature. Here are three sit down low back exercise options (try them all and decide which one(s) feel most productive/helpful):

  • 1. “Crossed Knee Stretch”: Cross your legs; pull the crossed knee towards your opposite shoulder (feel the pull in your buttocks); arch your low back and at the same time, twist or rotate to the side of the crossed knee. Hold for 5-10 seconds and repeat up to 3 times. Repeat this on the opposite side.
  • 2. “Sit Twists”: Reach across with your right hand and grasp your left leg at mid-thigh. Twist/rotate your back to the left and pull with your arm. Hold 5-10 seconds / repeat 3 times. Repeat this on the opposite side.
  • 3. “Sit Floor Touches”: Bend over as if to touch the floor or tie a shoe. Hold 5-10 seconds.

            If you do the math, it would take a minute for #1 and #2, 30 seconds for #3 (total 2.5 min.).  If that’s too long, hold for 5 seconds.  If that’s too long, do 1 rep, not 3.  You get the idea…..MAKE IT WORK!  Modify the dose to fit your schedule or ability to stretch.  If you do this AT THE TIME you start to feel tight or sore, you can PREVENT a LBP episode!

            We realize you have a choice in where you choose your healthcare services.  If you, a friend or family member requires care for low back pain, we sincerely appreciate the trust and confidence shown by choosing our services and look forward in serving you and your family presently and, in the future.

Electric Shavers - Pros and Cons

August 8th, 2010 by studtles


Image : http://www.flickr.com

For every man that shaves his beard sooner or later comes a question which to choose, regular razor blade or electric shavers? Of course each one of those has its advantages and disadvantages. We are going to go over a few of those in order to establish which might be better for regular use, but I think that it is almost impossible to come to a concrete answer because every man has different needs.

What does every man want when shaving his beard? Regular answers would be a clean cut, smooth surface and no irritation. Well we have all that covered with razor blades and with new high tech shavers. Technology has advanced in all fields, the proofs of that are also new models of shavers and trimmers which give us results that we could only get by a razor blade. A classical razor like Gillette Mach 3 or any newer model of razors gives you a clean cut which covers more surface than a regular razor blade. That helps you save time with your shaving and also causes less irritation due to lower number of strokes needed to shave your chin. But there is always a chance of cutting yourself, and we all know how difficult those cuts can be. Now every commercial will show that new models of razor blades guarantee no cuts, but those blades dull over time and sooner or later we are going to cut ourselves. But if you change the blades often you will probably avoid that. But that leaves razor blades to a great disadvantage over electric shavers, not just that it is almost impossible to cut yourself with an shaver but when you calculate your expenses in the long run it’s quite cheaper to buy an electric shaver that will last for years, than maintaining your razor blade and buying new blades twice a month.

While some of the electric shavers can’t deliver the same results like a regular razor blade, new technology shavers can, and they have a lot of other features that make them better. New model electric shavers like Braun Pulsonic 760cc offer a clean shave with just a minute of shaving. You can get the same result in just a minute that you could get with regular razor blade in 5. Aside from that new electric shaver have trimmers, shapers, they are easy to use, and most of them are cordless and rechargeable so you can take them anywhere. They are also easy to clean and waterproof, what makes them tempting is the lifelong warranty you get when you buy one. That should say something about the quality of those electric shavers.

Well it all comes down to your needs and habits. For a guy that used to get up in the morning and rush to work electric shaver are the best option. But for some other guys that prefer the old style nothing can compare to a good old razor blade. But we can say for certain that new electric shavers offer the same quality of shaving and a lot of other features, Which makes them more tempting to buy.

If you prefer electric shavers over razors you can find them online, for the best possible price.

What Are Men’s Tights In The Lingerie World And Is There A Market For Them?

August 6th, 2010 by studtles

Most people do not know much about men’s tights other than the ones worn by Shakespearian actors. They actually do exist. These are not the panty hose that women wear. These tights are designed for a man’s unique body proportions. These are made for men who participate in sports to help increase endurance in their legs. These tights are perfect for men who are active in soccer, golf, running, skiing, football, and biking. They have been created to stimulate blood flow and increase circulation to the legs.

These specially designed tights can help a man’s tired, achy leg muscles recover more quickly from sports or job related activities. Any man can wear them beneath his trousers without anyone knowing. They may well prevent circulation problems caused by from sitting or standing for long periods at work. While there is little spoken of or seen about men’s tights there appears to be a huge market for them. Not only do they give a man that streamline effect under his clothing and added support for sports they also provide health benefits as well.

Men can appreciate the extra layer of warmth that tights provide during the cold months of winter. Long johns can be bulky, and ride up under your pant legs, especially under jeans and dress pants. Men’s tights are breathable and do not hold in moisture so they can be comfortably worn indoors and won’t cause chafing or ingrown hairs. Any true outdoorsman knows that synthetic fibers are the best to hold in heat and repel moisture which makes these tights the perfect choice for hunters. They will leave a man’s skin warm and dry instead cold and clammy.

Men’s tights can also work to reduce excess heat in hot weather. No more sticking to car seats, furniture, or anything else. You can guarantee that you will be able to stay dry and comfortable no matter how warm it gets. Most men’s tights are extremely lightweight without the glossy finish of the women’s variety. They usually have a matte finish, reinforced toe and heel to withstand the hard work and sports a man may participate in. The comfort panel in the front of the tights has a manly fly opening for comfort and convenience. The crotch is designed specially for a man’s physique and comfort level no matter what his activity level.

For active sports, men’s tights will help to keep your body thermo-regulated. You can maintain the same comfort level throughout your workout. Men’s tights also create a barrier between the skin and irritating, yet warm, fabrics like wool. For outdoors activities, they provide added protection against the wind as well as ticks and other insects. They will also help reduce the risk of blisters by helping to eliminate friction in your shoes.

The majority of men’s tights are very comfortable and work well with any type of clothing; you will barely notice they are there at all. They help clothes fit better and have a smoother look. For men who prefer not to wear socks there is a sheer version that will provide a man with the foot protection he needs while being barely detectable. This will help to keep feet dry and odorless while maintaining the barefoot look. Men’s tights are a great way for any man have healthier, more comfortable legs and keep his body temperature regulated all year long.
