How healthy is Yarsagumba?

 How healthy is Yarsagumba?

We have heard and seen that people risk their lives to pick Yarsagumba in the Himalayas of Nepal. Yarsagumba is sold in foreign countries from Nepal at the price of lakhs.

It can be understood that Yarsagumba is precious. It is full of health-enhancing, strength-enhancing and disease-fighting abilities. Many diseases that can affect the body can be cured with the correct use of Yarsagumba. It is used not only in Ayurveda but also in allopathic medicine.

Is Yarsagumba a plant or an insect?

Yarsagumba is made from a combination of Jhusilkeera and Dhusi. In summer it is like a weed, in winter it remains as an insect. There is an influx of mushroom species in Jhusilkeera. After this mound grows, it is called Yarsagumba. Therefore, it is also called a combination of flora and fauna.

Yarsagumba is the name given by the Himalayan language. Yarsa means plant and Gumbu means insect. Some people call it the second form of Sanjeevani Booti. Some have even named it the sexually stimulating Himalayan Viagra. The scientific name of Yarsagumba is 'cardiac sinuses'.

What elements are found?

Yarsagumba contains cordycepin and other chemical substances such as nucleoside, cordycepic acid, amino acid, fatty acid, polysaccharide, vitamin B12, B, B1, carbohydrate, glucose, protein, sterol, melanin.

Recent scientific research has confirmed that some of the chemical elements found in it are also useful in cancer and tumor treatment.

How is it prepared as an herb?

When living underground as an insect, the infection is caused by the spores of Ophicordiceps sinensis. After the spore enters the body of the larva, the spore turns into a filamentous cell (like a thread) and starts spreading throughout the body of the larva.

The mycelium absorbs food from the larva's body and makes it hollow and spreads its body inside the larva's body. Finally, the larva dies after attacking the head. From the head of the dead larva grows a stalk-like part, which averages two to four inches long, and is brown in color. When the snow starts to melt in the spring, people collect such stems.

During collection, the parts with insects are removed from the ground by digging with a stick or finger. And after cleaning it can be prepared as a medicine by drying it in cold for some time.

In which area is it found?

It is found at an altitude of 3,600 meters to 5,000 meters above sea level. There are 100 species of Yarsagumba all over the world, while only 21 species of Yarsagumba are found in China, 7 in India and 2 in Nepal.

Yarsagumba is found in Taplejung, Sankhuwasabha, Gorkha, Darchula, Bajhang, Bajura, Jumla, Humla, Mugu, Dolpa, Manang, Sindhupalchok, Rasuwa, Dolakha and other districts of Nepal.

Which is exported from Nepal to Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Myanmar, Thailand, Singapore, Japan, UK and USA.

How did you find it?

The existence of Yarsagumba has been found in Nepal since mythological times. It was used by the Sherpas of the Himalayas. Yarchagumba, which is being used as a different herb, has not been discovered for the first time.

The credit for collecting Yarsagumba for the first time goes to Polunin Cycle and William who came to collect plants on behalf of the British Museum London in 1952. They found a very valuable yarsagumba from Chakhur Lake at an altitude of 4,200 meters and took it away.

In Tibet, it has been pounded and used as a medicine for hundreds of years. It has been used in asthma, liver, heart and kidney diseases under Chinese medicine.

At that time, its discussion was limited. There is an interesting anecdote in the spread of the discussion of Yarsagumba.

In 1993, three Chinese women athletes won the title at the World Track and Field Championships in Germany. They maintained five world records in the 1,500, 3,000 and 10,000 meter races. After the coach revealed that the secret of such a player's excellent performance is to consume Yarsagumba during daily practice, its discussion spread around the world. Along with its discussion, its price has also increased.

Legend

There is a legend that when Lakshmana was injured by an arrow in the battle between Rama and Ravana, Hanuman woke up Lakshmana by feeding him Sanjeevani booti from the northern Himalayas of Nepal. The Sanjeevani Buti is compared to the current Yarsagumba.

Uses of Yarsagumba

Earlier in Nepal, it was used locally in the Himalayan regions for the treatment of diarrhea, headache, hand and knee pain. Eating it mixed with bee honey and milk is believed to increase stamina. Also, it is believed that if its powder is eaten with boiled milk, it will fulfill the deficiency of vitamins.

However, it is now used as an anti-cancer drug, kidney, semen quality, cholesterol, metabolism regulation, back pain, blood circulation, swelling reduction and heart medicine. It is also used as a medicine for anemia, chronic asthma, tumor patients, bone marrow problems.

Yarsagumba is also used in some people who are taking radiotherapy and chemotherapy. It is also used in male and female infertility. As mentioned in WebMD, it is used for respiratory problems, lung infections, frequent urination at night, high cholesterol and ringing in the ears.

Hepatitis B virus, drug-induced kidney damage It is also used in cases. It is also used in mental problems. But how much is used in mental problems? No substantial evidence has been received.

It is also used as an aphrodisiac. Regular intake of yarsagumba by men increases the amount of ketosteroid in the urine. This element increases the production of sex hormones, including androgen and testosterone, which increase sexual arousal in men.

According to experts, if Yarsagumba is mixed with 13 other herbs and consumed continuously for three years, one becomes strong, agile and beautiful.

How much can be eaten?

Yarsagumba is available in the market in both tablet and powder forms. Yarsagumba 500 mg tablets can be mixed with milk twice a day and consumed. Similarly, dust can be taken from three to six grams.

It is only in Nepal that Yarsagumba is not registered in the Drug Administration Department. However, Yarsagumba is also found mixed in the production materials like Chewanprash as a supplement.

Yarsagumba is considered a safe herb and medicine. However, taking yarsagumba may cause side-effects during breastfeeding, pregnancy, blood related problems and surgery. Diarrhea, constipation and stomach related problems can sometimes occur while consuming Yarsagumba.

How healthy are you? It can be detected by the color of urine

 How healthy are you? It can be detected by the color of urine

Red, yellow, pink and green. Sometimes the color of urine can be like a rainbow. It can also be purple, orange or blue in color. Many such changes in the color of urine cannot be considered a normal condition.

Our body removes waste through urine. It also flushes out the nitrogenous wastes that are formed by mixing proteins, muscles and red blood cells in the body.

In addition, many other substances such as vitamins and medicines that we eat are excreted from the body through urine.

There are some elements which should not be present in urine. So, when you have a health problem, the question that the doctor often asks is, 'What is the color of your urine?'

From the answer to this question, what is the health condition of the doctor and what kind of treatment can be given? It is easy to guess roughly.

red color

If the color of the urine is red, it indicates that there is blood in it. It can cause problems in any part of the body related to the urinary system. If there is blood in the kidney, bladder, prostate or any tube connected to the ureter, the urine may be red.

Similarly, how blood is excreted through urine depends on many physical conditions. For example, what is the amount of blood in the urine? Looking at how fresh? And, are there other problems while urinating?

If there is a lot of bleeding, the color of the urine looks like 'red wine'.

Such bleeding can be due to many reasons. For example, kidney stones, cancer, trauma, any infection in the urinary tract. Even if you eat beetroot more than necessary, the color of urine can be red.

Under normal conditions, our urine looks like yellow color and orange color. It also depends on how much water we drink.

As water becomes less, the color of urine becomes dark yellow and sometimes orange in color.

If you drink enough fluids, the color of urine will be thin and pale yellow. The substance that makes urine yellow is called 'urobilin'.

Its production process begins with the breakdown of old red blood cells in the body. Those blood cells that are not in good shape need to be removed from the body system.

In this process, a compound called bilirubin is formed. It exits the body to some extent through the urinary tract and to some extent through the intestines. Bilirubin is used in our liver to produce bile that is released when we eat. This pitta is important for digestion and helps break down fat in the body.

Bile stays in the intestines and passes out through the stool. Due to this pitta, the stool looks brown in color. Bile can also be unable to reach the intestine, which indicates gallstones or cancer blocking the bile ducts. In this case, bilirubin returns to the bloodstream. And it comes out through urine.

Therefore, the color starts to darken, appearing orange or brown. If the amount of bilirubin increases, the color of the skin also starts to turn yellow. This condition of the body is called 'obstructive jaundice' i.e. a type of jaundice.

In this case, if the amount of bilirubin increases, the color of the face becomes yellow. Some medications, including the antibiotic rifampicin, can cause orange urine.

Green and blue

Green and blue colors are rarely seen. If the color of the urine is green or blue while urinating in the toilet, the person may be surprised.

If green or blue dyes are used to color any food, the color of urine may be green or blue. Eating such foods in excess can cause such urine.

Taking some medicines like anesthetics, vitamins, antihistamines can also cause the color of urine to be green or blue. Some bacteria also make compounds, which are green in color.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria produce blue and green colored pyocyanin.

Urinary tract infection can be seen in rare cases. In such a situation, urinating may cause burning and pain.

female stomachache because poisonous food

purple

This situation is also rare. One possible cause of this is porphyria. It is a genetic disease that affects the skin and nervous system.

The second reason for this is a rare disease called Purple Urine Bag Syndrome. Which is due to urinary tract infection.

In this case, using a catheter (a device used medically to remove urine from the body) also makes the urine purple.

pink

A small amount of beetroot can cause the color of urine to be pink instead of dark red. In such cases, urologists compare it to red wine.

There may be other colors of urine, which are not part of the rainbow. Some are dark in color. Usually brown or black. When this happens, doctors may compare it to Coca-Cola.

other diseases

The color of the urine can be brown or black, which the doctor can compare to Coca-Cola. Sometimes this color appears when muscles are broken down and converted into a compound called myoglobin. Which is a sign of a serious disease called rhabdomyolysis. Therefore, excessive exertion or the use of some medicines may be necessary.

Similarly, bilirubin can also cause black and gray color. Bilirubin makes the urine so dark that it appears both black and brown in color.

Kidney swelling

This color can also be seen in acne (glomerulonephritis). Due to this, when passing through the urinary tract, the urine changes from red to brown in color and sometimes the urine can be colorless.

Urine should not be dark yellow in color. Likewise, a large amount of thin urine can also indicate some diseases. Whether it is due to diabetes or excessive alcohol consumption.

It shows how many different colors our urine can be and how many different problems it can indicate. And, this is by no means a list of every problem.

But understanding the reason for the change in urine color will help you decide whether to drink water or see a doctor.

Is frequent urination at night a sign of diabetes?

A night's sleep acts as a medicine for the tiredness of the day. If something disturbs the sleep, there will be many problems. Frequent urination at night is one of the reasons that disrupts sleep.

If you have to go through this problem every day, it is not normal. This problem is related to diet and lifestyle, Dr. Veer Hospital's chief consultant Eurosurgeon. Ravin Bahadur Basnet says.

"Frequent urination at night can also indicate diabetes, urinary tract infection or prostate disease," he says.

Drinking a lot of water makes you urinate frequently?

Many people think that because they drink a lot of water before going to bed, it is normal to urinate a lot at night. But it doesn't always happen. This can be a symptom of diabetes and other serious problems. Vinay Bhattarai says.

If you drink a lot of water before going to bed, sometimes you may urinate frequently at night. But if there is a problem of frequent urination at night, drinking water before going to sleep or drinking too much water may not be the reason, he says.

Dr. Bhattarai continues, “Diabetes increases blood sugar levels, which puts a lot of pressure on the kidneys and they cannot absorb the extra sugar completely. As a result, excess sugar is excreted through urine, but at this time, a large amount of water is also absorbed from the body. As a result, more urine starts coming out. In such a situation, when you feel very thirsty, the amount of water increases and you urinate frequently.

In diabetes, there is frequent urination not only at night but also during the day. If there is a problem of dry mouth and frequent urination, Bhattarai suggests getting diabetes checked.

Other causes of frequent urination

Dr. If you do not urinate frequently during the day, but you have to urinate frequently at night, it may also be due to heart problems. Basnet says. "If the heart is not working properly during the day, water accumulates in the lower part of the leg while standing and sitting," he says. Makes and may urinate frequently at night.'

Frequent urination in men can be a symptom of prostate problems. As the age increases, the prostate gland increases and frequent urination occurs not only at night but also during the day.

"Urinary tract infection (UTI) due to the infection of the urinary tract, the problem of frequent urination at night also appears," said Dr. Bhattarai says, "Even if there is an infection in the kidneys, urine can come many times during the night."

He says that a woman's frequent urination at night is also a common early sign of pregnancy. He says that this problem appears when the growing fetus puts pressure on the bladder.

If you urinate frequently at night, you should first have a urine test to identify whether there is any health problem. If there is no identification from that, other tests such as ultrasound should be done," said Dr. Bhattarai says, "We find out whether there is any problem in the test. If a problem appears, it should be treated on the advice of a doctor.

Getting up before sunrise in the morning, thinking, exercising, meditating, having breakfast is the beginning of a good routine.

Have a fresh and nutritious breakfast in the morning. This is because not eating anything overnight slows down our metabolism, which in turn increases stress hormones. It can lead to heart disease, weight gain, and diabetes. When we don't eat for a long time, our body is deficient in nutrients. That's why you should get up in the morning and have breakfast.

It is not right to eat food just to satisfy hunger or to have breakfast. Some people eat junk food for a quick snack. It is an inedible substance for our body, which contains trans fat (the worst type of fat). It raises the level of LDL cholesterol in the body and lowers the level of HDL cholesterol. As a result, there is a risk of heart disease. So breakfast should be healthy, nutritious, and fresh.

Vitamins are needed to keep your skin, hair healthy, and bones strong. Therefore, proper consumption of vegetables at mid-day and dinner is essential.

If you feel lazy to do any work, if you spend a lot of time sitting, your body will become weak. Muscles and bones become weak, which increases the chances of osteoporosis. Your body does not function properly. As a result, many diseases can occur. To avoid such dangers, adopt an active lifestyle. Increase regular exercise, walking, running, and work.

Our body needs to be hydrated to keep its functioning smooth. If the amount of water in our body is insufficient, we feel tired and many kinds of problems start appearing. Because drinking enough water helps the body get rid of toxins. We need at least two liters of water per day.

Everyone needs enough sleep. If you can't sleep well, your body becomes ugly. Our routine becomes chaotic. Mental fatigue is felt. It also causes a variety of diseases. So get enough sleep.

Every day you have to set aside some time for yourself. During that time, you can enjoy yourself. Whether it is by entertaining, by watching movies, by massaging, by doing make-up, you have to give extra time for yourself.

Some eating conditions

They die without knowing how to eat more than they do without food. More food than the hospital is essential for health. Because the food itself is disease-free. The same food, to make sick. Eating right, balanced and healthy food keeps you healthy. If food is eaten indiscriminately, it makes the body a reservoir of disease.

It sounds unpleasant, but we don't know how to eat.

We are not aware of the food that is directly related to public health. Not everyone has to eat at a standard hotel or restaurant. We are also careless in our own food.

Eating is for both the tongue and the stomach. When we put food on a plate, we have to keep in mind that it reaches the stomach. From the moment it is chewed, it must undergo various stages of digestion. Finally, the nutrients in the food reach the organs of the body. The rest is excreted as feces.

In that sense, we emphasize healthy eating. We choose nutritious food. At the same time, we eat as much as the body needs.

Eating is not just about filling the stomach. Eating is also a culture. It is also a celebration. In some communities, it is customary for family members to sit together and have fun. We should also follow such a food culture.

Why eat

Many think so. To fill the stomach. For the same reason, we are always thinking of filling our stomachs. While eating is very important for overall health. The body has a direct sign of food. The sign of the body is with the mind and the brain. We need to eat healthy to keep all these parts of the body fit and healthy. Balanced and accurate.

Why right

Because we don't even have a way to eat. This is true even if it sounds unpleasant. We don't know how to eat. Our mythological scriptures have taught us to eat. How to live, how to eat, what to do while eating, what not to do?

However, we are rejecting it as a pretense. Modern civilization has repeated the same thing that our mythological scriptures said. Eating is for both taste and health. That is why it is said that one should eat with a pure heart while consuming food. Happy heart To be happy To be satisfied

Cooking

Food does not always have to be varied. There doesn't always have to be meat. Pulses do not have to be pickled. Even if it's just Gundruk, it has to be made in the right way. He ate gundruk in the morning and dal in the evening. In another dish, add vegetable juice and eat. Change new taste in every meal.

In the morning, the cumin seeds are sifted and the lentils are sifted. It adds something new to the taste. If potatoes and greens are cooked in the morning, gravy can be cooked in Raj at night.

Art can also be mixed in eating and serving food. In fact, cooking is a kind of art. That is why it is also called 'Culinary Art'.

Catering etiquette

Modern society has called it a 'dining manor'. This is a matter of civilization, how to eat food.

Catering etiquette shows how civilized we are. Because food is the basis of life. When it comes to eating, you need to know how to eat.

Let's put the same food on our plate that sucks us. It tastes good. Let's put as much food on the plate as we need.

Put a little rice on the plate, a little dal, a little nuts, a little, vegetables, a few pieces of meat.

Hand in hand with nature: Life is happy and healthy

The body is amazing. It is a beautiful creation of nature. And, it is an advanced form emanating from the soil. Like a beautiful plant, a sparkling flower, a succulent fruit growing from the soil. Likewise, the body is made of clay.

The body that grows in the soil becomes a cat in the soil. If we realize this, we will not keep disorders like ego, pride, greed, anger in this holy body. But, being unaware of the anatomy of the body, we defile the body by storing these disorders. We pollute.

Just as polluting the atmosphere causes many problems, so polluted emotions inside the body make the body sick and chronic. Most of the diseases that have spread in the modern lifestyle have grown inside our bodies.

There is immense power within the body. There is an amazing beauty. But, we never enter the body. We neglect our bodies in the cycle of external pleasures. We eat what we need or not. We enjoy an unnatural lifestyle. In this way, we despise our own bodies. Insult What is the result?

Many diseases, sufferings, pains are added to the body.

 "Living with a sick body is not life, it is just a state of pain."

Yoga-science has called living with a sick body 'committing suicide in installments'. Therefore, living a sick or painful life is a punishment in itself. Is torture You don't have to go into custody for torture. We are living a torturous life even in the comfort of our own home.

Therefore, to live a happy, energetic, happy life free from such pain and torture, we must be one with nature. It should be uniform with the soil. The more we become alienated from nature, the more pain we have to endure.

Play in the soil, wander in the forest, eat the fruits and grains given by nature. Nature produces various fruits, grains, etc. at the right time to keep our bodies balanced and healthy. But, we go against nature.

We try to grow the fruits that nature grows. We try to eat the food given by nature by roasting, cooking, and frying. We clear the forest and decorate the house with artificial plastic flowers. Thus, while being detached from nature, we are falling into the swamp of disease.
