The bitter reality of sweet sugar

The bitter reality of sweet sugar


Although sweet in taste, sugar is considered a very bitter food in terms of health. That is why modern nutritionists have put it on the list of things to give up rather than eat. Also, many have begun to give up, but most junk food, fast food, and processed foods contain sugar, so we are unknowingly eating sugar. Sugar is added to most commercial foods as it enhances the taste, attractiveness, age, and texture of the food. There are more disadvantages to sugar than sweet sugar. But when we consume sugar, we do not pay attention to all these facts. As a result, we unknowingly run into many problems. Sugar consumption can lead to the following health problems.



Diseases caused by sugar intake:

1. Heart disease:


Sugar is also a risk factor for heart and vascular disease, which is said to be the number one killer of 17.7 million people in the world every year. Prolonged consumption of sugar can lead to weight gain, swelling of the lining of blood vessels, increase in cholesterol and triglycerides, increase in blood glucose and blood pressure, and increase the risk of heart diseases, such as stress, anxiety, depression, and coronary heart disease. Similarly, high sugar intake or high-fucose-diet can lead to a disease called atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis of the coronary arteries that supply blood to the heart is called coronary heart disease.


2. Diabetes:


About 450 million people worldwide suffer from diabetes, a number that has multiplied in the last 40 years. Thus, the consumption of sugar and processed fats is one of the major factors contributing to the increase of this problem at the rate of twice a day and four times a night. Long-term insulin resistance caused by sugar consumption is the main reason for the development of diabetes, while obesity and stomach problems caused by sugar consumption are considered to be another reason.


3. Insulin resistance: 

Consuming sugar raises our blood glucose levels. At the same time, the blood volume of insulin also increases. If this action is repeated for a long time, it develops insulin resistance. Insulin resistance leads to diabetes.


4. Fatty liver:


The problem of fat accumulation in the liver has become a problem in every household today and the consumption of processed carbohydrates containing sugar and high fructose is the main factor in making this problem so frightening. Consumption of sugar increases the problem of fat accumulation in the liver. This is because sugar contains high levels of fructose. Fructose is a harmful element for the liver. This is because fructose is digested only in the liver while glucose is digested in all the cells of the body. When you consume high amounts of fructose, the liver stores fructose as glycogen, but if it exceeds the limit, this fructose accumulates in the liver in the form of fat, which we call fatty liver disease.


5. High weight and obesity:


Of the 7.8 billion people in the world today, 2 billion (200 million) are overweight. Of those 2 billion, 650 million are obese. Thus, our diet has a major hand in unexpectedly gaining weight and even in food, sugar intake has been taken as a major factor in high weight and obesity. The biggest hand in this is the carbonated drinks like Coca-Cola, Pepsi-Cola, Fanta, Mirinda, Dew, soda, bazaar juice, energy drinks, etc., which are sold as soft drinks all over the world. These soft drinks contain high amounts of sugar or high-fucose-corn-syrup or high-fucose-rice-syrup.


These syrups or sugars produce high levels of fructose after digestion. People tend to gain weight by eating a lot of fucoses, which causes hunger and reduced satisfaction after eating. Similarly, when you consume more fructose than you need, high fructose develops resistance to the hormone satiety called leptin, so people eat more and gain weight. Similarly, eating sugary or high-fructose foods can cause fat to build up in the soft tissues of the body. Gentle body fat is considered to be the causative agent of many diseases.


6. Tea, poto, and anaphora coming:.


Of course, tea leaves and dandiphora come for many reasons. But consumption of sugar and processed carbohydrates are the main cause of dandruff. The main reason for this is the high glycemic index of sugar and processed carbohydrates, which increase blood glucose levels when consumed. As blood glucose levels rise, so do blood insulin levels, and as insulin levels rise, blood levels of androgens increase, excess fat is produced, and dandruff occurs.


7. Risk of cancer:


Similarly, long-term consumption of sugar also increases the risk of some cancers. The main reason for this is that long-term consumption of sugar leads to weight gain and development of obesity, unexpected inflammation in the body, development of insulin resistance, and as a result various types of cancers develop.


8. Depression:


Worldwide, 265 million people suffer from depression. If the problem of depression persists for a long time, people's desire for suicide increases. There are also many causes of depression. Consumption of sugar and processed carbohydrates is one of the major causes of depression. When we consume sugary tea, soft drinks, bazaar juice, bakery products, junk food, fast food, etc., these foods continue to spoil our mood and eventually people become depressed. Thus, the intake of sugar and processed carbohydrates causes depression, which is the amount of blood-insulin and high blood-insulin androgen hormone that accompanies the increase in blood glucose after sugar consumption. Androgens are also called stress hormones. Similarly, high sugar intake can lead to neurotransmitters, which can lead to depression.


9. Premature ejaculation


Aging is an event that happens in everyone's life. But for many people, premature aging is associated with sugar intake and processed carbohydrates. Symptoms of aging include skin rashes, hair loss, tooth loss, and loss of sensory function, and various health studies have shown that consumption of sugar or refined carbohydrates can help to alleviate these symptoms. Thus, the biochemical called advance-glycation-and-product, which arises from the reaction of sugar and protein after sugar consumption, is responsible for causing aging. Advance-glycation-and-products specifically destroy the collagen and elastin proteins that keep skin tone, complexion, and radiance alive, and the skin looks aging faster.


10. Cellular degradation:


Our body has about 10 blue cells. These cells also have their own age and these cells are also prone to old age and death. The process of shortening the cellular structure called telomerase is responsible for the aging of such cells. Telomeres typically cover every side of the chromosomes and prevent the chromosomes from being distorted by other elements and the chromosomes from merging with each other, but when the telomeres are shortened, the chromosomes deform quickly and the cells age quickly. Various scientific studies have shown that prolonged consumption of sugar or shortening of telomeres causes cells to age faster.


11. Weakness of power:


When you eat foods high in sugar, sugar raises both blood glucose and insulin. Thus, a rise in blood glucose for a few moments after sugar intake also raises energy levels, but this condition does not last long. Therefore, sugar and processed carbohydrates should not be consumed to maintain energy levels for a long time. If you need to eat, you should also eat protein and fiber-rich foods.


12. Kidney damage:


Consumption of sugar also affects the health of the kidneys. In this case, the sugar causes inflammation in the blood vessels and also damages the small blood vessels of the kidneys, which can lead to kidney damage.


13. Tooth decay:


Consumption of sugar and processed carbohydrates can lead to tooth decay. This is because when you eat sugar, it attracts bacteria that are harmful to your teeth. These bacteria produce acid that causes tooth decay and tooth decay.


14. Increased uric acid:


Consumption of high amounts of sugar breaks down sugar into glucose and fructose after digestion. Of the glucose and fructose formed after digestion of sugar, glucose is metabolized in all cells while fructose metabolism occurs only in the liver. In the liver, fructose is converted to fructose 1 phosphate. In this process ATP is used to make ADP and ADP is also converted to AMP and AMP is also converted to inosine to make uric acid. Therefore, the more sugar we consume, the more uric acid we suffer from.


15. Forgetfulness and loss of comprehension


As sugar intake increases blood glucose levels and increases blood glucose levels, so does insulin resistance. Similarly, sugar intake increases the production of amyloid protein in the brain, which can lead to Alzheimer's disease. Therefore, consumption of sugar reduces forgetfulness and cognitive ability.

Symptoms and treatment of urinary tract infections

Symptoms and treatment of urinary tract infections


Infections of the urinary system occur for a variety of reasons. This problem is more common in women. 77% of women suffer from urinary problems. Due to negligence and shame, they do not say this openly. Urinary tract infections are caused by not paying attention to genital hygiene.



Symptoms of urinary tract infection


 Irritation during urination.


- Frequent urination.


- Feeling of pain in the back.


-Sometimes bleeding during urination.


- Urine is foul-smelling.


Caution to adopt in this way


1. Do not stop urinating too much


Some people stop urinating for long periods of time, either because of work or because they are lazy. This is a very bad habit. If urine is coming in and is stopped for three to four minutes, the toxin goes back to the kidneys. This is called the retention of urine. If this action is repeated many times, kidney stones will start to freeze. So do not suppress urine to get rid of such problems.


2. Urination after sexual intercourse


It is very important to urinate after sexual intercourse. This causes the bacteria inside to come out. The risk of infection is reduced. Women, in particular, must urinate after sexual intercourse.


3. Do not keep wet


The vagina should not be kept moist. After urinating, the vagina should be thoroughly cleaned. Also, it should be kept dry, so that bacteria do not spread in the urinary tract.


4. Cleaning in menstruation


During menstruation, you should pay more attention to the cleanliness of the vagina than at other times. Sanitary pads should be changed every 6 hours.

Regular exercise is the best life

Regular exercise is the best life


"The risk of cancer is as high as the risk of cancer for those who smoke one cigarette a day, and for those who live a sedentary life by avoiding labor, exercise, and hard work."


In fact, those who lead sedentary lives are more likely to get cancer and other diseases. Among them are cardiovascular disease, hypertension, diabetes, high blood cholesterol, obesity, osteoporosis, osteopenia, kidney stones, osteoporosis, intoxication, shoulder joint jam, colon cancer, mental stress, anxiety, and depression. Diseases such as atherosclerosis, deep vein thrombosis, constipation, acidosis, indigestion, and insomnia are prominent.



Increasing urbanization, the abundant availability of luxury and recreational materials, comfortable transportation, well-equipped, and computer-connected workplaces, and work-related tasks in a chair are making our lives inactive day by day.


Because of the need to spend time sitting on a sofa at home and in a chair in the office, the patient is also called couch potato in satirical language. With the practice of modern lifestyle, the number of such couch potatoes in the society is increasing day by day and the outbreak of diseases related to physical inactivity has increased exponentially, resulting in death which cannot be prevented by exercise alone.


In Nepal too, our lives are becoming more and more inactive due to increasing urbanization and the practice of living a modern lifestyle.


Due to physical inactivity and unhealthy lifestyle, heart attack, stroke, high blood pressure, diabetes, cancer, uric acid, back pain, osteoporosis,, and drug addiction are becoming household problems in our country. The outbreak of these diseases has skyrocketed after the Nepalese people, who were accustomed to indispensable labor and exercise due to geography and natural lifestyle, became accustomed to lazy and inactive lifestyles along with the use of amenities and resources. We cannot give up technology to avoid problems due to amenities and problems caused by the use of science and technology, but we can get rid of these problems by promoting physical activity such as labor, exercise, and sports somewhere in our daily routine.


What can be done


Morning Walk, Running, Skipping, Beating, Sports, Swimming, Trampoline Jumping, Taekwondo, Dancing, Yoga, Aerobics, Zumba, Ballet, Salsa, Hiking, Bata Cycling, static cycling, going to the gym, climbing stairs, kumfukrante, playing usu, boating, doing water exercises, engaging in chores or gardening.


What should exercise be like?


The World Health Organization (WHO) considers the following features to be indispensable in scientific exercise for health protection:


1. Intensity: Exercise needs to be as fast as you can increase your heart rate and respiratory rate and break a sweat.


2. Elongation: Exercise should be done continuously for at least 15 to 30 minutes without stopping.


3. Regular: Exercise should be repeated at least 3 times a week.


As the Eastern Health Sciences have shown, the inclusion of the following dimensions in scientific exercise is considered inevitable


1. Exercise should break the sweat once and increase the speed of the heart and breathing.


2. Once all the joints of the body should be used.


3. Exercise should not only be for the muscles and skeletons but also for the soft organs inside the body, such as the intestines, intestines, kidneys, liver, feces, lungs, heart, and brain.

How to exercise:


Exercising should not be the only way to start. It should also be prepared. You should choose a place that is full of natural beauty, free from pollution, has enough air and light. Enough half an hour before the start and two sips of water just before the start, but do not drink water immediately after the exercise. Patients with special diseases and conditions, such as heart disease, diabetes, and high blood pressure, should exercise only as prescribed by their physician.


Exercise should be done only to the best of your ability, do not try to be competitive, zealous. Warming-up and relaxation exercises should be done before starting. Exercise-specific clothing, such as shoes, belts, T-shirts, should only be worn. Also, these materials must be comfortable. When exercising with special tools and materials, the materials should be handled carefully. Special care should be taken as exercise can cause injuries. Do not panic while exercising. You should be sure to set a regular time and relax for a while after exercising. In the beginning, the pain of life should not be left.


Benefits:


1. Exercise helps to balance body weight. Exercising regularly reduces the weight of obese people and increases the weight of lean people.


2. Exercise helps keep the heart, blood vessels, and respiratory organs healthy. Regular exercise has been shown to lower bad cholesterol and increase good cholesterol in the blood, thus reducing the risk of heart and vascular disease. Exercise helps to reduce high blood pressure and increase low blood pressure and also plays an important role in controlling diabetes.


3. Exercise has a big hand in stress control. Exercise can help control mental problems, such as anxiety, depression, fear, and depression. Exercise improves mood, boosts confidence and creativity, and improves mental processes such as memory, rhythm, meditation, and concentration. Exercising for a long time does not reduce the cognitive capacity of the brain.


4. Strengthens muscles, skeleton, and nervous system. Purifies the blood. Increases digestive capacity. Helps to solve problems like indigestion, indigestion, acid bile, gastric, and constipation.


5. Exercise also helps to get rid of addiction.


6. Exercise increases physical, mental, and sexual ability.


7. Exercise also helps increase cancer resistance.


8. Helps in the prevention of non-communicable diseases.


9. It is especially beneficial for people with insomnia.


10. Don't get old fast.
