Fatty Liver – Easily reversible with Diet & Exercise

July 14, 2020cTcHealth & Wellness Article#fattyliver#lifestylechanges
Fatty Liver – Easily reversible with Diet & Exercise

Your liver is the largest organ inside your body. It helps your body digest food, store energy, and remove poisons. Fatty liver occurs when too much fat builds up in liver cells. Although it is normal to have a tiny amount of fat in these cells, the liver is considered fatty if more than 5% of it is fat. There are two main types:

  1. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)
  2. Alcoholic fatty liver disease, also called alcoholic steatohepatitis

Major risk factors for Fatty Liver include obesity, high triglycerides and type 2 diabetes, though it’s also associated with excessive alcohol consumption. Other risk factors include certain medications such as glucocorticoids, and hepatitis C. Eating excess calories causes fat to build up in the liver. When the liver does not process and break down fats as it normally should, too much fat will accumulate. So Diet plays a major role.

Often there are no or few symptoms. Most individuals are asymptomatic and are usually discovered incidentally because of abnormal liver function tests or hepatomegaly noted in unrelated medical conditions. Occasionally there may be tiredness or pain in the upper right side of the abdomen.

Just because simple fatty liver is harmless, it doesn’t mean it is not a serious condition. As the disease is linked to being overweight or obese, people with any stage of the disease are more at risk of developing a stroke or heart attack.

1.Stage/Grade 1: simple fatty liver (steatosis)

This is where excess fat builds up in the liver cells but is considered harmless. There are usually no symptoms and you may not even realise you have it until you receive an abnormal blood test result.

2.Stage/Grade 2: nonalcoholic steatohepatitis

Stage 2 is a more aggressive form of the condition, where the liver has become inflamed.

3.Stage/Grade 3: fibrosis

This fibrous tissue replaces some of the healthy liver tissue, but there is still enough healthy tissue for the liver to continue to function normally.

Prevention & Management-

  1. It is recommended that people with fatty liver disease do not drink alcohol.
  2. Treatment of NAFLD is generally otherwise by dietary changes and regular exercise to bring about weight loss. Decreasing caloric intake by at least 30% or by approximately 750–1,000 kcal/day results in improvement in hepatic steatosis. For people with NAFLD, weight loss via a combination of diet and exercise was shown to improve or resolve the disease.
  3. It is important to make lifestyle changes to prevent the disease progressing to a more serious stage and to lower your risk of having a heart attack or stroke.
  4. Stop smoking
  5. Treatment of underlying cause if any.
  6. Care Towards Cure have treated successfully many patients of Fatty Liver with combination of Best suited Homeopathy Treatment, Dietry – Lifestyle changes & Life coaching.

6 foods to avoid if you have a fatty liver

  1. Alcohol as Alcohol is a major cause of fatty liver disease as well as other liver diseases.
  2. Added sugar-Stay away from sugary foods such as candy, cookies, sodas, and fruit juices.
  3. Fried foods as these are high in fat and calories.
  4. Salt.
  5. White bread, rice, and pasta & other Starchy food
  6. Red meat.

Eat a Balanced diet

  1. Select foods from all food groups: Grains, fruits, vegetables, meat and beans, milk, and oil.
  2. Eat food with fiber. Fiber helps your liver work at an optimal level. Fruits, vegetables, whole grain breads, rice and cereals can take care of your body’s fiber needs.

26th June, International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking 2020

June 26, 2020cTcHealth & Wellness Article#26june#addiction#drugabuse#rehabilitation#sickness2
26th June, International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking 2020

The International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking is a United Nations International Day against drug abuse and the illegal drug trade. It is observed annually on 26 June, since 1989. The UN Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) has, over the years, been actively involved in launching campaigns to mobilize support for drug control.

The theme for the 2020 International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking “Better Knowledge for Better Care” emphasizes the need to improve the understanding of the world drug problem and how in turn, better knowledge will foster greater international cooperation for countering its impact on health, governance and security.

According to the UNODC, nearly 200 million people are using illicit drugs such as cocaine, cannabis, hallucinogens, opiates and sedative hypnotics worldwide. They are leading miserable lives, between life and death.

Drug abuse is a global phenomenon, affecting almost every country, but its extent and characteristics differ from region to region. India too is caught in this vicious circle of drug abuse, and the numbers of drug addicts are increasing day by day. Problems of drug dependence produce dramatic costs to all societies in terms of lost productivity, transmission of infectious diseases, family and social disorder, crime, and excessive utilization of health care. Cannabis, heroin, opium, and hashish are the most commonly used drugs in India after alcohol and tobacco. Tobacco is mentioned in substance abuse to highlight that it should be remembered as the primary licit substance of abuse in our country. Drug users are mainly young and predominately male. The damage to the physical, psychological, moral, and intellectual growth of the youth is very high.

For any individual to become an Addict, he does have contributing factors like, biological, social, cultural and environmental. You often have a person who feels ashamed, insecure, inferior and ill equipped to negotiate his or her way in the world. They believe they can only face their fears or feel any better when they use their drug. He uses his substance to escape reality and live in the world he wants to live in by ignoring his real life and the problems he has to deal with. When an addict is abstinent from his substance, he/she would experience withdrawals.

Addiction treatment & Rehabilitation

  • Yoga is becoming increasingly popular worldwide, for Addition treatment. Yoga helps in breaking the addiction patterns and heals the body and mind in a gradual way. It addresses the disharmony on body, mind and spirit. Yoga cultivates physical awareness bodily in a soft, nurturing way. It teaches the individual new way to deal with stress, leading to a positive outlook.
  • By addressing the underlying causes and learning new coping skills, the addict can move from the dark dungeons of abuse to the light of recovery and life.
  • Rehabilitation, as defined by the WHO, refers to the measures that help individuals with a disability or a disabling health condition achieve and maintain optimum functioning in interaction with their environments.
  • Care Towards Cure with Homeopathy medicine helps you to strong your will power for De-addiction & reduce withdrawal symptoms.

Helping addicts recover and rebuild their lives by helping them restructure their personality with psychotherapy and medical interventions is a paramount priority in process of Addiction treatment & Rehabilitation.

अंतर्राष्ट्रीय योग दिवस की शुभकामनाएं

June 21, 2020cTcMedical Articles#health#internationalyogaday#yogacalorie restrictionDietdietingphysical activitysedentry lifestyleweight reduction
अंतर्राष्ट्रीय योग दिवस की शुभकामनाएं

योग अर्थात संयोजन, जैसा की आप जानते है कि शरीर का निर्माण पञ्च तत्त्व (अग्नि, वायु, आकाश, जल व पृथ्वी) से हुआ है, अर्थात इन तत्वों के संयोजन की अवस्था में संतुलन लाने के लिए किया गया व्यायाम योग क्रिया कहलाती है, जिसके फलस्वरूप मन शरीर से संतुलन बना हमें स्वस्थ रखता है।

योग का अभ्यास 5,000 साल पहले उत्तरी भारत में सिंधु-सरस्वती सभ्यता के दौरान शुरू किया गया था। ऋग्वेद में इसका उल्लेख पहली बार किया गया था, जिसमें ग्रंथों का एक संग्रह था जिसमें मुख्य रूप से ब्राह्मण, वैदिक पुरोहितों द्वारा अनुष्ठान, मंत्र और गीत शामिल थे। तीसरी शताब्दी ईसा पूर्व में, जैन, हिंदू और बौद्ध लेखन जैसे अन्य धर्मों में “योग” शब्द आम हो गया। महायान बौद्ध धर्म में, आध्यात्मिक और ध्यान दोनों के लिए योग के अभ्यास को योगाचारा के रूप में जाना जाता था जिसमें ध्यान के आठ महत्वपूर्ण चरण शामिल थे, जिसे “अंतर्दृष्टि” कहा जाता था। योग परंपरा के अपने अनुकूलन के साथ 19 वीं और 20 वीं सदी की शुरुआत में स्वामी विवेकानंद की सफलता के बाद, आसनों को छोड़कर, भारत के योग गुरुओं ने बाद में पश्चिम में योग की शुरुआत की।

भारत के बाहर, यह एक मुद्रा-आधारित शारीरिक फिटनेस, तनाव-राहत और विश्राम तकनीक में विकसित हुआ है। भारतीय परंपराओं में योग, हालांकि, शारीरिक व्यायाम से अधिक है, इसका ध्यान और आध्यात्मिक कोर है। आज, योग दुनिया भर में कई रूपों और विविधताओं में लाखों लोगों द्वारा अभ्यास किया जाता है। ‘मुक्ति की स्थिति’ (मोक्ष) या ‘स्वतंत्रता’ (कैवल्य) के लिए आने वाले सभी प्रकार के कष्टों को दूर करने के लिए योग का उद्देश्य आत्म-साक्षात्कार है।

योग को आमतौर पर स्वास्थ्य और फिटनेस के लिए एक थेरेपी या व्यायाम प्रणाली के रूप में भी समझा जाता है। जबकि शारीरिक और मानसिक स्वास्थ्य योग के प्राकृतिक परिणाम हैं, योग का लक्ष्य अधिक दूरगामी है। योग ब्रह्मांड के साथ स्वयं को सामंजस्य बनाने के बारे में है। यह ब्रह्मांडीय के साथ व्यक्तिगत ज्यामिति को संरेखित करने की तकनीक है, जो उच्चतम स्तर की धारणा और सामंजस्य को प्राप्त करता है।

स्वास्थ्य और कल्याण के लिए योगिक अभ्यास, व्यापक रूप से प्रचलित योग साधनाएँ (अभ्यास) हैं: यम, नियमा, आसन, प्राणायाम, प्रत्याहार, धारणा, ध्यान (ध्यान), समाधि / संयम, बंध और मुद्राएँ, शत-कर्म, युक्ता -धारा, युक्ता कर्म, मंत्र जाप, आदि। यम संयम हैं और नियमा पालन हैं। दुनिया भर में लाखों और लाखों लोगों ने योग के अभ्यास से लाभ उठाया है जिसे प्राचीन काल से आज तक महान प्रख्यात योग मास्टर्स द्वारा संरक्षित और प्रचारित किया गया है। योग का अभ्यास हर दिन और अधिक बढ़ रहा है।

Care Towards Cure अपने सभी मरीज़ो को Homeopathy के साथ नियमित योग करने की सलाह देता है।

सिर्फ योग दिवस पर योग न करे, रोज योग करने की आदत बनाये, योग को अपने जीवन का हिस्सा बनाये।अंतर्राष्ट्रीय योग दिवस पर बधाई। स्वस्थ रहें, सुरक्षित रहें।
