Health
Health
The
World Health Organization defines health as a state of complete physical,
mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or
infirmity. Eating right, exercising, and sleeping well play an equal role in
the prevention of infections and diseases. However, a good sense of self, a
loving support network, and the potential for continued personal growth is also
important to our overall wellbeing.
Many of us are not in control of the factors that cause us to become ill whether they be genetic, environmental, or something else entirely. There are many avenues we can take to improving our health, which include the use of traditional and modern medicines when we are ill.
However, most people cannot access or afford proper health care such as healthy sanitation and hygiene, which is necessary to prevent the spread of disease.
Moreover, a large proportion of the global population are disenfranchised because of poverty, geographic location, disability, or social stigma against those who are ill. In addition, sexual health continues to be a highly contentious issue around the world particularly with concern to the method of transmission of some of the world's deadliest diseases such as HIV/AIDS. Furthermore, one of the most pressing issues in terms of health and wellness is the education, prevention and treatment of HIV/AIDS. The Millennium Development Goals seek to address this issue specifically in Goal 5: Improve maternal health and Goal 6: Combat HIV/AIDS, Malaria and other diseases.
While people of all ages should maintain good health, young people face special challenges as they transition from childhood to adulthood. With the onset of puberty, the body changes to accommodate physical and emotional growth, but it also marks one of the most vulnerable stages in a young person's life. During this time, females tend to struggle more than males with body image and self-esteem issues which can lead to dangerous eating disorders and even death. On the other hand substance abuse, depression, self-mutilation and suicide have higher incident rates in males than females and if left untreated these health concerns may lead to permanent mental and physical damage.
Given that everyone’s body and medical history is different, it is important to be aware of what makes you sick and even what makes you feel better on a personal level.
There is extensive international research documenting the ways in which the health status of individuals or groups is significantly determined by social and economic conditions as well as by therapeutic care or personal health behaviours. Social determinants of health (SDOH) are social and economic conditions that influence the health of individuals and communities. A wealth
of research on SDOH provides evidence that: health follows a social gradient; stress damages health; the health impacts of early development and education lasts a lifetime; poverty and social exclusion cost lives; stress in the workplace increases the risk of disease; job security improves health;
unemployment causes illness and premature death; social supports and supportive networks improve health; alcohol, drug and tobacco use are influenced by the social setting; healthy food is a political issue; and healthy transport means walking and cycling and good public transport. Other basic determinants of health, such as genetics, interact with SDOH to present a broad overview of why
some individuals and communities are healthy while others are not.

Foods to beat stress: -
Foods to beat stress: -
1) Nuts:
contain selenium, a mineral whose deficiency
causes crankiness, anxiety and fatigue. Therefore, a handful of nuts help you
stay calmer.
2) Chocolate: Give in to your darkest desire by indulging in
chocolates. Their anandamine content keeps the dopamine levels of the brain in
check, thereby ensuring the mind stays relaxed and free of stress
3) Spinach: Popeye’s favourite food is also rich in
magnesium, which keeps the mind from overreacting. The correct dosage of
vitamins A and C as well as iron ensures a healthy diet intake as well.
4) Pasta: made from whole grain is rich in magnesium,
the deficiency of which increases stress levels.
5) Bread: made
from whole grain has the same effect as
pasta, that is, the reduction of magnesium deficiency. So, make sure you
include toasts or sandwiches in breakfast to lead a stress-free day.
6) Blueberries: A delicious fruit, blueberries are also packed
with antioxidants, which are known to be highly effective in relieving stress.
7) Almonds: The zinc and vitamin B12 content of almonds
makes them super-eligible to make it to this list. These nutrients help
maintain a balanced mood and keep anxiety at bay.
8) Green
tea: Nothing can have a calmer effect on the
human mind than a cup of green tea to kickstart the day. In fact, it is known
to have an immediate relieving effect on many.
9) Milk: Surprised again? Well, milk contains
tryptophan, which helps in the build-up of serotonin, thereby helping the mind
stay relaxed.
10) Broccoli: Go green! With broccoli, you get your required
dose of potassium, the low levels of which can cause tiredness and stress.
11) Kiwis are also known to convert tryptophan into
serotonin, thereby inducing anxiety-relieving experience for the brain.
12) Bananas: Low in fibre, bananas reduce the risk of gas,
thereby increasing chances of staying calm and stress-free through the day.
13) Rice: A carbohydrate that has an immensely calming
effect, rice is also easy to digest and low in fat.
The above is a list of some
of the foods you can include in your daily diet to ensure your levels of
anxiety stay low. In addition, remember to drink plenty of water to keep
flushing out those toxins and stay healthier and happier.

Are you thinking about your knee?
Are you
thinking about your knee?
When was the last time you skinned your knee?
It's probably been a while since you experienced this commonplace ailment of
rough and tumble youthful times. But even if your grown-up ways have made
frequent knee scrapes a thing of the past, your habits in adulthood could still
be damaging your knees. The only difference now is that the damage may be a
little harder to see.
W
e put an enormous amount of mechanical stress on our knees on a daily
basis. And, typically, the knee is designed to take it. However, certain bad
habits could be shortening the life of your knees and opening the door to
chronic pain and disability. The way you stand, walk, and move can have a
tremendous impact on the health of your knee joints. Taking time now to
evaluate some basic choices, such as your stance, your shoes, and your level of
overall health and fitness, may help you side-step debilitating knee conditions
like osteoarthritis and help keep your knees healthy, inside and out. Ask
yourself the following five questions and find out if you're being nice to your
knees.
1. How much
weight are you carrying? - Your knees bear the brunt of
your body weight, so it's crucial that you maintain a healthy body mass index
(BMI). Every extra pound you carry adds up to 3 pounds of pressure on your knee
joints when you walk, and 10 pounds when you run. So, if your BMI is 25 or
more, you may be compromising the health of your knees. In fact, obesity is one
of the biggest risk factors for developing osteoarthritis because it speeds the
breakdown of cartilage. Dropping extra weight -- particularly body fat -- may
be the single most important thing you can do to reduce the risk of developing
a serious knee problem. In a study reviewed by the National Institutes of Health,
overweight people who lost an average of 11 pounds cut their risk of
osteoarthritis in half.
2. Are you
exercising? - Regular exercise is
essential to maintaining knee strength. Without it, your muscles weaken,
leaving your joints without ample support and leaving your muscles, bones,
tendons, ligaments, and joints vulnerable to misalignment. Your best bet is to
choose activities with a low risk of knee injury. A knee injury cans double the
risk of developing osteoarthritis. Daily moderate exercise is much better for
your joints than occasional strenuous exercise. Focus on low-impact activities
that build stamina, strength, and flexibility, such as yoga, walking,
biking, swimming, and weight lifting. These types of exercise can help
enhance circulation, improve your range of motion, and build the muscles that
surround the knee joints. One study revealed that a relatively small increase
in quadriceps strength (20%–25%) can lead to a 20%–30% decrease in the chance
of developing knee osteoarthritis. Aim for a minimum of 30 minutes of exercise
on most days of the week.
Knee-Friendly
Exercises: Water workouts provide low-impact resistance and add a
strength-training aspect to aerobic exercises such as walking or jogging. T'ai
chi can help increase your range of motion, lengthen your muscles, and make
your ligaments and tendons more resilient. Isometric exercises and yoga
strengthen core body muscles as well as leg muscles that support the knee.
3. Are you
overusing some muscles and joints? -: Staying active is one of the best things you
can do to protect your knees, but you should avoid repetitive strain on muscles
and joints. For example, repeatedly engaging in the same activity -- whether
for work, recreation, or exercise -- may loosen tendons or damage cartilage and
eventually lead to injuries and possibly even arthritis. Determining if you are
overusing a joint requires listening to your body. When you feel pain or
discomfort during or after exercise, household chores, or other activities,
don't ignore it. Take a break and consider ceasing the activity altogether
until you can perform it without pain. In the meantime, stay active by focusing
on other activities that do not stress the injured joint. If the pain does not
go away in 2 weeks, see your healthcare provider. To help avoid overuse
injuries, spend 5–10 minutes warming up before you exercise and
another 5–10 minutes cooling down afterward.
4. Is your
body properly aligned? -: Just as driving a car when the wheels are out of
alignment causes the tires to wear irregularly, the same principle holds true
for your knees. If your body is not properly aligned, your muscles, joints, and
ligaments take more strain than they are able to endure healthfully. Here are
some general principles of correct standing posture: Your back is straight.
Don't slump forward at the shoulders or waist. Your knees are slightly bent -
they should not be locked. Your abdominal muscles are tight - gently suck in
your stomach. Your head is centered over your body. Check yourself in the
mirror from side to side. Your weight is evenly distributed between your feet.
Do not jut one hip out to the side. A physical therapist can help you assess
your biomechanics and teach you proper standing, sitting, walking, running, and
lifting techniques that can help spare your joints from extra wear and tear.
5. Are you
wearing the right shoes? -: Shoes that cause your body
weight to be unevenly distributed place extra stress on your knee joints. In
addition to avoiding obviously uncomfortable or impractical shoes that can
throw your stride off and stress your knees, you also should consider a visit
to a specialty store if you have special anatomical considerations. As they
say, nobody's perfect. Flat or rigid arches, uneven leg length, and bowed legs
are fairly common in the general population, and each can contribute to an
awkward stride and put pressure on your knees. Consider purchasing at least one
of your main pairs of shoes or sneakers at a specialty store where the staff
can advise you on which shoes provide the appropriate support for your foot and
body type. Before you go, consider a visit with a podiatrist. He or she can
help diagnose any additional foot concerns, such
as overpronation or supination, and prescribe orthotic inserts
that go into your shoes and correct your gait. High-heeled shoes might add to
the risk of osteoarthritis or other knee problems: A Harvard University study
found that women who wear high heels have stress across the part of the knee
where osteoarthritis usually develops.
Be Good to
Your Knees Now-: Arthritis of the knee is common, but it is not necessarily an
inevitable consequence of aging. Taking care of your knees now will cost you a
lot less time and effort than rehabilitating them down the road.
