“Obesity was an independent predictor of recurrence.  We found that the more obese a man was, the greater the chances that his cancer would return after the surgery. The chance of recurrence for very obese patients is 70% higher than for others. That’s a very significant difference.”

Christopher Kane, MD, associate professor of urology at the University of California, San Francisco, and chief of urology at the San Francisco VA Hospital

“The way you think, the way you behave, the way you eat, can influence your life by 30 to 50 years.”

Deepak Chopra (an alternative medicine practitioner)

Today our topic is future generations using healthier habits in their lifestyles with eating foods healthier overall for their bodies but still being able to treat yourself to foods not necessarily the best to be eating on a regular basis (Ex. Fast Foods.  Even though their trying to be healthier in fast food restaurants their still not an item to be eating every day).   I’m a female who is middle aged and am within my body mass index (BMI) and still with some muscle tone which ending line is doing well but if you think I have natural high metabolism you’re dreaming.  If you live on eating not 3 but 6 small meals a day that’s low in calories, carbohydrates, and fat you will allow your metabolism to stay at a steady level.  The key is it’s not for a few days, weeks or months but your regular way of living with still treating yourself to foods now & than that aren’t so healthy compared to your regular eating habits.  Know when you do that you because your regular dieting metabolism to go back 4 days since it slows down the metabolism.  If you’re in your regular body mass index at that point, great.  Remember to watch what you eat the next few days with going back on your regular healthy foods but if not in the therapeutic BMI and you want to lose weight than no treats yet.  Now we’ll tell you how you can learn the proper and improper foods to eat in one second.  Eating healthy foods in your regular life will help you not only with keeping your weight at a nice number but as you  grow older you decrease a lot of diseases caused by eating foods low in fat and cholesterol which allows in time blockages in the arteries  causing cardiac problems.  Eating foods high in carbohydrates, calories, fats and sugars daily will just put high probability that you will become overweight especially if you’re not doing any work-out or activity other than work and your regular daily activities.  Becoming overweight or just eating foods that are unhealthy or doing both can cause many problems as getting older  (Obesity, Diabetes II,  high B/P, blockages in the arteries=Coronary Artery Disease and more).  The younger you are the easier it is to change usually but even being older you can change for both age groups it just takes being a strong person, having discipline, and knowing this is what you want.   Remember when you slack off in your diet and activity/exercise you don’t persecute yourself but get right back on the healthy track and keep striving for a healthier body, longer life and possibly a change for the better with our health care system overall in society, in time.  A healthier country will in time show less disease, healthier population in America making overall a better place for everyone of any age.  Most important you will be healthier.  It is all up to you and if you want to know more about better eating habits (types of healthy foods to eat not just being salads & allowing foods you love in the diet, including knowing the foods healthy in all 4 food groups from the lean to leaner and the leanest) and what activity or exercise to do (which doesn’t mean you have to do a heavy work out ) than you need to look no further.  I’m not a hacker, this is not asking for donations, it is all in your control in what you want to do and learn.  You are the boss in making your decisions, no one else.  Join me by clicking onto healthierusa.tsfl.com to learn more about what we provide, including the foods healthy and not healthy, and no subscription fee to click on us just check us out.  Give us a glance and you just may like what you see. =====================.

^{” The global problem posed by osteoporosis, WHO sees the need for a global strategy for prevention and control of osteoporosis, focusing on three major functions: prevention, management and surveillance.“}

^{Harlem Brundtland (born April 20, 1939) is a former Prime Minister of Norway and a current Special Envoy with the United Nations.}

Its a progressive bonedisease that is characterised by a decrease in bone mass and density and that leads to an increased risk of fracture.   ^{In osteoporosis, the bone mineral density (BMD) is reduced, bone microarchitecture deteriorates, and the amount and variety of proteins in bone are altered.}

Osteoporosis causes bones to become weak and brittle —- so brittle that a fall or even mild stresses like bending over or coughing can cause a fracture.  Osteoporosis-related fractures most commonly occur in the hip, wrist or spine.  Bone is living tissue, which is constantly being absorbed and replaced.  Osteoporosis occurs when the creation of new bone doesn’t keep up with the removal of old bone.  Osteoporosis affects men and women of all races; but white and Asian women–especially after menopause–are at highest risk.  Medications, healthy diet and weight bearing exercise can help prevent bone loss or strengthen already weak bones.

A weight bearing exercise is any exercise that has your legs and feet holding all of your weight. An example of this would be walking, yoga or even dancing.

When is the form of osteoporosis most common inwomen?

^{After MENOPAUSE is the form of osteoporosis most common in women after referred to as primary type 1 or postmenopausal osteoporosis. Primary type 2 osteoporosis or senile osteoporosis occurs after age 75 and is seen in both females and males at a ratio of 2:1. Secondary osteoporosis may arise at any age and affect men and women equally. This form results from chronic predisposing medical problems or disease, or prolonged use of medications such as glucocorticoids, when the disease is called steroid- or glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis.}

The risk of osteoporosis fractures can be reduced with lifestyle changes and in those with previous osteoporosis related fractures medications. Lifestyle change includes diet, exercise, and ^{preventing falls.}

^{The utility of calcium and vitamin D is questionable in most. Bisphosphonates are useful in those with previous fractures from osteoporosis but are of minimal benefit in those who have osteoporosis but no previous fractures. Osteoporosis is a component of the frailty syndrome.}

Take the problem of Astronauts with osteoporosis:

Space travel has made it widely known that a stay outside the atmosphere – and thus outside the earth’s gravitational influence – disturbs the metabolism irreparably: the human body does not need any hard bones in zero-gravity, which leads to decalcification. A four year study of the ‘International Space Station’ showed that the bones of astronauts　did not regenerate after even one year past their return to earth.

Anti-gravitational  training is the key to osteoporosis if you can handle it (like jumping on a trampeline)  Actual studies show that physical anti-gravitational activity helps the effected patients to regain their mobility and lessen the risk of bone fractures .

Benefits of exercise

Women who have been physically active throughout their lives generally have stronger bones than do women who have led more sedentary lives. But it’s never too late to start exercising. For postmenopausal women, regular physical activity can:

Increase your muscle strength

Improve your balance

Make you better able to carry out daily tasks and activities

Maintain or improve your posture

Relieve or decrease pain

Improve your sense of well-being

Exercising if you have osteoporosis means finding the safest, most enjoyable activities for you given your overall health and amount of bone loss. There’s no one-size-fits-all prescription.

Before you start

Consult your doctor before starting any exercise program for osteoporosis. You may need some tests first, including:

Bone density measurement

Fitness assessment

In the meantime, think about what kind of activities you enjoy most. If you choose an exercise you enjoy, you’re more likely to stick with it over time.

” If the Cushing’s Syndrome is not curable, or if iatrogenic Cushing’s Syndrome     must remain, these individuals will have to cope with persistent fatigue,   muscle weakness, abdominal and facial weight gain, depression, mood swings,    and all the other signs and symptoms.

Xrays are beneficial of the adrenal and pituitary glands in finding tumors.
