Exactly How Clean are Your Hands After Washing?

Image
Are you sure that your hands are perfectly clean because you wash them well? It is likely that you do it in a completely wrong way. Effective hand washing is important, since there are pretty dangerous bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Salmonella, MRSA staph and some viruses like influenza on them. However, what can be defined as a good hand washing? Is it recommended to rub them for at least 30 seconds? Jenny Ag decided to put different types of washing hands under UV light and look in detail which method is most appropriate and leaves least bacteria. Many of us often hastily wash hands with water and shake, but this way of washing leaves a lot of bacteria. The most common are fecal bacteria. This method of washing hands is especially practiced in dirty public toilets or the whole process of washing the hands is avoided, because you feel that you will get more bacteria than you can remove, but in fact, the opposite is the case. It was necessary to wash your hands in tho...

Mail polish for many women is an integral part of their everyday lives and their complete appearance, confidence, style and elegance. However, nail polish, and other products for the care of nails and cuticles can be extremely hazardous to health, and in drastic situations can even cause infertility and cancer. Scientists from Stanford University have warned women to carefully read the content of nail polish and other preparations for nails that contain some harmful substances. They contain numerous toxic chemicals that can leave serious consequences on health. These are: formaldehyde, toluene and dibutyl phthalate that together make the “poisonous threesome” and exposure to these chemicals can cause a range of health problems, of which the worst are infertility and cancer.

Simple Method to Detect Cancer, Which Only Includes Yogurt and Urine Test

Image
MIT scientists with their work came to another simple method to detect cancer, which only includes yogurt and urine test. Professor Sangeeta Bhatia managed to develop molecules that act as biomarkers in the detection of the colorectal cancer cells. If you drink these molecules with yogurt, they will find their way to the cancer cells, where enzymes dissolve to tiny particles and are deposed from the body through urine, says the “International Business Times”. Earlier methods for the detection of colorectal cancer included the entry of these molecules by injection and the new method removed the invasive part with modifying bacteria in yogurt. Tests are conducted on laboratory mice, while in clinical trials in patients this method would certainly be accepted as an extremely simpler and cheaper way in the discovery of this terrible disease. According to the American Cancer Society (ACS), only 40% of people with colorectal cancer had an early diagnosis of this disease du...

Why are the Fibers So Important – 5 Health Benefits of Fiber

Image
Fibers are the indigestible part of the food we eat. Fibers are mostly found in plant foods. Regardless of the fact that they are indigestible, fibers have a major impact on our health. They are divided into: Soluble fiber (they dissolve in water and convert into a viscous gel which slows the passage of food through the system)  Insoluble fiber (does not dissolve in water but absorbs it to speed up the digestion and increases the volume of stool) Both types of fiber have their own advantages and applications in the treatment or prevention of various diseases. To get a clear picture about which foods have fiber and to what extent, we made a list with the amount of fiber in a variety of food per cup capacity of 250ml: Foods rich in fiber Fruits (1.1 grams of fiber per cup) Dark-green vegetables (6,4g per cup) Orange vegetables (2,1g) Cooked beans (8,0g) Starchy vegetables such as potatoes (1.7g) Other vegetables (1.1g) Whole grains (5g) Meat (0.2 g) N...

Why You Should Consume Fish Oil and Which Diseases Can Be Cured with Its Consumption

Image
Omega 3 fatty acids are nutrients that are essential for human health as well as vitamins, but for some reason most people ignore this fact.  There are many people who have a deficiency of Omega 3 fats in their diet. This deficiency may adversely affect the physical and mental health. These fats can be divided into several types:  ALA, DHA and EPA fatty acids. DHA and EPA are found in animal sources, but mostly in fish. Fish oil capsules ALA are usually found in the seeds of various plants (walnuts, flax seeds, sesame and pumpkin). ALA is also an essential fatty acid. In the body, it can be converted into DHA and EPA, but the conversion is very inefficient (about 5%). For this reason, it is recommended a diet rich in fatty fish or supplementation of fish oil capsules. Fish oil has been studied for literally hundreds of different problems and diseases. In this article we will specify for what is fish oil proven as effective. Health of the heart This feature...

[VIDEO] She Boiled Egg Shells: After This You Will Never Throw Them Away

Image
A lot of people use the egg and throw the shell. But what are the benefits of the shell? Shells are 90% calcium, which is a mineral that is very important for the bones, muscles, and is able to make the enzyme healthier, but somehow the shell ends in a garbage can each time. The National Institute for Health proved that a shell from an egg is a great way to insert the required amount of calcium in the human body. Just half a teaspoon of egg shells gives you 90% of the daily requirement for calcium. Boil the eggs in water for 10 minutes to ensure that there are no more bacteria living on them. Some people bake them in the oven, but this step is optional. Let the shell cool down. When they have cooled down, grate them or put them in a coffee grinder and convert them into powder.
