Periodontal Gum Disease and Smoking

Periodontal Gum Disease and Smoking
Smokers should know the dangers of tobacco use. Researches
also have found that the following problems occur more
often in people who use tobacco products: Bad breath, oral
cancer, stained teeth, tooth loss, loss of taste, bone
loss, gum recession, mouth soars and facial wrinkling. The
research also indicates that there is less success with
periodontal treatments and dental implants.

There are also other medical problems associated with
smoking including lung disease, cancer, heart disease and
low-birth-weight infants.

If you are a smoker who is concerned about the effects
smoking can have on your health, and on your gums and teeth
in particular, at least by reading this article you are
learning all the negative impacts of tobacco use, and you
are taking the first step toward quitting.

According to the American Academy of Periodontology recent
studies have shown that tobacco use may be one of the most
significant risk factors in the development and progression
of periodontal disease. And following periodontal treatment
or any oral surgery, the chemicals in tobacco can slow down
the healing process. This makes treatment results less
predictable.

Here are some of the ways that one Los Angeles dentist who
specializes in periodontal gum disease and oral implants
believes smoking increases your risk for periodontal
problems. "Smokers are more likely than nonsmokers to have
calculus, otherwise known as plaque, which hardens on the
teeth," said Dr. Bijan Afar. "When calculus is not removed
it often remains below your gum line, and the bacteria in
the calculus can destroy your gum tissue and cause gums to
pull away from your teeth."

Smokers are also more apt to get deep pockets between the
teeth and gums and they also have loss of the bone and
tissue that supports teeth. Periodontal disease progresses
when these pockets between the teeth and gums grow deeper,
allowing more bacteria to destroy tissue and bone. This
result is that your gums shrink away from your teeth, and
if they are not treated by a periodontist, your teeth may
begin to hurt, become loose, and fall out. It has been
proven that smokers loose more teeth than nonsmokers.
According to data from the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention, only about 20 percent of people over age 65 who
have never smoked are toothless, while a whopping 41.3
percent of daily smokers over age 65 are toothless.

In addition, research shows that current smokers don't heal
as well after periodontal treatment as former smokers or
nonsmokers. But these effects are reversible if the smokers
kick the habit before beginning treatment.

Furthermore, all tobacco products can be harmful to
periodontal health, such as smokeless tobacco (nicotine gum
products) also can cause gums to recede and increase the
chance of losing the bone and fibers that hold your teeth
in place. In a study of cigar and pipe smokers that was
published in January, 1999 in the Journal of the American
Dental Association it was stated that cigar smokers
experience tooth loss and alveolar bone loss at rates
equivalent to those of cigarette smokers. Pipe smokers
experience tooth loss at a rate similar to cigarette
smokers.

Losing Weight Safely

Losing Weight Safely
Those that want to lose weight usually think about reducing
the amount of food they eat. This may seem like a
reasonable solution but not necessarily the safest. Fact
is, the amount that you reduce in your food intake to lose
weight, may be dangerous to your health. So how do you lose
weight safely? Here are some pointers to consider before
you try to lose weight:

Losing Weight Safely: Crash Diets

Most people think that losing weight means eliminating the
calories alone can shed off their excess weight. What
people don't realize is that this is a dangerous mentality
to losing weight because when they decrease their calorie
intake below the required levels, the body begins to digest
the fats. Sounds great but it doesn't work that way.
Burning fat requires a lot of energy. Since there is not
enough energy in the body to facilitate the metabolism to
burn fat, losing weight will progress at a very slow pace
and result in fatigue, illness and a weak immune system.

Low-calorie diet is also compensated for by burning muscle.
People on this type of diet who revert back to their old
eating habits end up gaining back their weight loss, if not
all the weight fat they lost. And since fats have more
volume per mass than muscle, they end up with the same
weight as before but more bulky. In losing weight, you
should keep in mind that you should lose excess body fats
only.

However, you can try out eating small meals at more
frequent intervals. The body will not think that it is
being starved and will not store food as fat. Losing Weight
Safely: Eat Properly

You may have considered junking the crash diet option but
he should also not forget to watch what he is eating. A
variety in diet must always be considered so that you may
be able to get the necessary nutrients from your diet. It
is also healthier to eat foods that are roasted, steamed or
broiled rather than fried. It is also important to include
a lot of fiber in the diet. Frequent re-hydration is also
necessary while losing weight safely.

Losing Weight Safely: Pump up lean Muscle Mass

Muscles burn calories when they work; they even do so at
rest. Unlike fats, muscles burn calories all-day round.
With this fact, you can start weight loss by increasing
muscle mass. The more muscles, the less fat will be left.
This is attainable starting with working out with
resistance exercises.

Losing Weight Safely: Engaging in Aerobics

Aerobics are good for the heart by increasing
cardiovascular endurance. Aerobics also help in developing
lean muscle mass while simultaneously decreasing excess
body fat. Aside from these, aerobics make the metabolic
process more efficient and its rate high, even after a long
while.

Losing Weight Safely: Extra "Push"

Some people believe that smoking and caffeine can actually
help in losing weight. This can perhaps be true; however,
they do the body more harm than good because of their
side-effects. For that extra "push", you can try out taking
food supplements. After all, 95% of these products out in
the market actually do some good.

Losing Weight Safely: On Taking Diet Pills

While diet pills affect the amount of weight loss as well
as how long you can keep that weight off. However, you must
be concerned of the side-effects of these diet pills.
Furthermore, diet pills are only of benefit to losing
weight as long as you are taking them. Once you have
terminated the use of diet pills, the weight loss usually
returns.

Losing weight safely does not have to entail sacrifice and
suffering. It actually means opening up to a new outlook in
a lifestyle that benefits a full and healthy life. Losing
weight might entail a little adjustment in your beginning
efforts, but as the old saying goes, "no pain; no gain."

Neurophathy and the Diabetic

Neurophathy and the Diabetic
Neuropathy is a functional change or pathological
disturbance in the peripheral nerves. Know anymore than
you did? Probably not. Let's see if we can get a better
understanding of what all that mumbo-jumbo means!

The human body's nervous system has two main parts with the
Central Nervous System being the one we hear the most
about. This is the part of the nervous system that
includes the brain and spinal cord. The one we hear less
about is also a very important one. The Peripheral Nervous
System is made up of the nerves that connect the Central
Nervous System to the other organs and muscles in the body.
As you can imagine, the peripheral nerves affect a lot of
areas of the body. Now back to our original definition of
neuropathy, a functional change or pathological disturbance
in the peripheral nerves, one can see how neuropathy can
become a big problem.

The peripheral nervous system is made up of three different
types of nerves. They are motor nerves, which are
responsible for voluntary movements such as waving goodbye,
walking, etc. Another is sensory nerves which allow us to
feel pain, hot and cold, etc. The third type is the
autonomic nerves. As the name implies, these nerves
control our involuntary movements such as breathing, heart
beats, etc. Obviously, the nervous system is very complex
and one of more nerves may be involved in neuropathy.

Symptoms of neuropathy can come on suddenly or gradually
over time, depending on the types of nerves involved.
Unfortunately, diabetes is the most common cause of
neurophathy so we diabetics need to be aware of the
symptoms because early intervention is important in
treatment and recovery. In most cases, the early symptoms
are weakness, pain, or numbness. Symptoms such as
difficulty walking, stumbling or tiring easily, muscle
cramps, trouble holding onto objects, an unsteady gait,
dizziness when standing up may be symptoms. Some people
complain of their hands and feet feeling as though they are
wearing gloves or slippers when they are not. Because the
peripheral nerves involve so many areas, there are many
different types of symptoms. This can lead to problems
getting a diagnosis since so many of these symptoms also
relate to other illnesses. If you notice one or more of
these symptoms for an extended time, check with your
doctor. He or she may refer you to a neurologist, a doctor
whose specialty is the brain and nerve disorders. A
complete history of the symptoms should be presented and
such tests as an EMG (electromyography), blood tests and
urine tests will probably be done.

The key to recovery is to seek help as soon as you suspect
problems. Recovery time depends on how much damage has
been done and if nerve damage is left untreated for a long
period of time, the symptoms could become irreversible.
Don't ignore the symptoms! This is your life, your future
and your comfort we are talking about here. Most of us
human beings have a tendency to think it's our imagination,
it will get better on its own, the doctor will think I'm
just a complainer, I'll mention it when I see the doctor in
six months, etc. Wrong! At the risk of repeating myself,
I feel that I must stress early diagnosis and treatment is
important for this one. Don't let yourself have permanent
nerve damage because you waited too long to admit you had a
problem.

Who's Holding a Gun to Your Head?

Who's Holding a Gun to Your Head?
Several years ago I had the opportunity to work in an
assisted living community. My job involved talking to
people who had nutrition problems (diabetes, heart disease,
high blood pressure) and to give short lectures to the
residents.

The talks were always fun, because the topics were
interesting (to me anyway). They included how taste
changed with age, how to be active while sitting in your
chair, ways to add fruits and vegetables to your daily
diet. Then there would be a question and answer
session-again, always fun, because I got to think standing
on my feet.

One question that seemed to arise on a regular basis was
"why do they always serve dessert?" Usually followed by
the comment "I have gained ten pounds since I moved here!"
After the first few talks, I felt like I was dealing with
college freshmen, although now I understand that, with
inflation, the "freshmen ten" is now the "freshmen 15."

I could understand their frustration, because, after having
worked in several facilities, I felt like I was on a cruise
ship. Along with three meals a day, there was always some
type of snack around-cookies, fruit, cake. And, along with
salad, vegetables and a main course, the meals always had
dessert.

You probably feel this way as well, especially when you eat
at a restaurant, or at a friend's house. You want to eat
what is in front of you, and you feel as though there is no
choice. Then, when you discover you have gained weight,
you wonder why.

Let me tell you what I used to tell the folks at the
assisted living facility-and it is this:Did someone put a
gun to your head and tell you that you had to eat dessert?

I realize this is a bit harsh, to you, and to the folks I
was lecturing. But it makes a point-no one is forcing you
to eat dessert. In fact, no one is forcing you to eat
anything. My concern for the elderly is that they eat
adequate amounts of food to stay healthy, and if they eat
dessert, it's their choice. Well, my friends, when you are
at a restaurant, or at your friends' house, the same hold
true-it's your choice. You may feel guilty for not wanting
to eat dessert, but no one is holding a gun to your heading
and forcing the food down your throat.

My suggestion, to you, and to my former residents, is to
watch what you eat-that's all. If you know you are going
to have dessert, then cut back a bit on some of the foods
you eat during the day. Or try to be more active.
Activity helps to increase your metabolism and to burn
calories. Whatever you consider, though, do NOT skip meals
the next day-that sets up a dangerous cycle of starving and
overeating.

The folks at the assisted living needed a bit more advice,
because dessert was offered at every meal. We did need to
discuss more strategies for watching their intake during
the day, especially if they weren't active. The bottom
line still holds-no one is forcing you to eat, you are
responsible for what you put into your mouth. Unless, of
course, someone is holding a gun to your head.

Alpha Lipoic Acid - The New Antioxidant

Alpha Lipoic Acid - The New Antioxidant
Antioxidants are known for their anti aging properties.
They fight free radicals created in our bodies from stress,
aging, pollution and bad diets that can create cell damage
and contribute to chronic disease. Alpha Lipoic Acid is a
fairly new antioxidant and shows promise as being one of
the most important discoveries in the antioxidant field.

Although Alpha lipoic acid has been known since the 1950s,
it was originally thought to be a vitamin and wasn't
classified as an antioxidant until 1988.

All antioxidants basically work the same - they are
chemicals that get rid of free radicals -- destructive
chemicals produced by the body and thought to contribute to
aging and ailments ranging from heart disease to stroke.

What's Different About Alpha Lipoic Acid?

Alpha Lipoic Acid is soluble in both water and fat, which
means it can move into all parts of the cell to neutralize
free radicals. It's the only antioxidant that can reach the
brain.

It is a metabolic antioxidant, which means it is important
for cell metabolism or the energy of the cell.

The body actually makes enough alpha-lipoic acid for cell
metabolism,however it acts as an antioxidant only when
there is an excess of it and it is in the "free" state in
the cells. There is little free alpha-lipoic acid
circulating in your body, unless you consume supplements.

It is readily absorbed when taken orally, and once inside
cells is shortly changed to its most powerful form,
dihydrolipoic acid.

What Are The Benefits of Alpha Lipoic Acid?

*It is currently utilized in Europe to treat peripheral
nerve degeneration (neuropathy) resulting from diabetes.
*It helps make Vitamin C and Vitamin E work better. *It is
used to treat and detox the liver. *Protects and repairs
cells. *Scientists are discovering it may be helpful in
treating or preventing cataracts, atherosclerosis, strokes
and heart attacks, and memory and brain function.

What's the Best Form of Alpha Lipoic Acid?

Actually, there are two forms of Alpha Lipoic Acid and if
you're not vigilant, you could be taking the wrong form.
Most supplements are selling a type of Lipoic Acid that
consists of BOTH forms of the antioxidant, called S and R.
You should be looking for R - Lipoic Acid which is the only
form of lipoic acid that your body synthesizes and can
safely metabolize. Unless the label specifically states
that it is R Lipoic Acid, you are most likely getting the
blend.

Are there Any Side Effects?

Alpha Lipoic Acid seems to have very few side effects. The
recommended dosage is between 50 - 100 mg per day. Higher
doses can result in nausea and upset stomach.

Alpha lipoic acid may benefit blood sugar control, so
people with diabetes who are taking medication to lower
blood sugar should only take it under their physician's
supervision.

Animal studies indicate that alpha lipoic acid may alter
thyroid hormone levels, so it could theoretically have the
same effect in humans. People taking thyroid medications
such as levothyroxine should be monitored by their
healthcare provider.

As always, you should check with your physician before
taking any supplements and also look into hormone and
vitamin deficiency testing.

The Truth About Protein, Carbs and Fats

The Truth About Protein, Carbs and Fats
People know that by eating a high protein and low carb, low
fat diet, they will lose weight. But it is not worth it.
When you eat too much of carbs or fats, you store it as
body fat. When you eat too much protein, where do you store
it? Your body cannot store it. The body has to get rid of
it. It breaks it down. People eat way too much protein.
When the protein is broken down, it creates toxins and
acids.

The acids cause your body to remove calcium from your bones
to neutralize the acids. The toxins from the breakdown of
protein, attacks your arteries and can lead to high blood
pressure, heart attacks and strokes. College textbooks on
nutrition say that protein deficiency is rare in the world
and does not exist in this part of the world. That means
that while there are millions of people starving because
they are not getting enough carbs and fats, it is rare to
get enough of them but not enough protein.

The brain needs lots of carbs. If a person does not get
enough, he can get depressed. This can lead to someone
killing themselves. So it is not worth it to lose some
weight and end up dead. Also the brain needs plenty of
carbohydrates for you to sleep well. If you are not getting
enough carbs, that can make it hard to sleep leading to
mental problems and even a nervous breakdown.

Of course the good carbs from foods made by nature like
fruits and vegetables are good for you. The bad carbs from
foods made by man are bad for you, like cookies, donuts and
candy. These foods are designed to make you fat and
addicted to food. The unholy grains, like wheat and rice
are also bad for you. The whole grains like whole wheat,
brown rice, wild rice, millet, barley, buckwheat, kamut,
spelt and quinoa are good for you.

Fats are needed to lubricate the brain, arteries and skin.
A lack of good fat (like omega-3) can cause you to become
depressed. It can also lead to high blood pressure, heart
attacks and strokes. Also it can cause skin problems. The
bad fats are bad for you. But the good fats are good for
you. Fish cannot be included as good fats since there is
too much mercury in them from pollution. But you can get
good fat from avocados. It is 60% fat and it is great for
you. It is even anti-inflammatory which can help your
joints.

When they are soft but not mushy, they are good to eat.
Sometimes they have brown in them and they are not good so
it is like a gamble buying them. But it is well worth it.
Other good fats are olives, olive oil, canola oil, nuts and
seeds. Studies with olive oil show that it helps your
arteries and helps you to be thinner. Flaxseeds, walnuts
and pumpkin seeds are good sources of omege3s, a fat that
people do not get enough of.

Keeping off the Weight Once it is Lost

Keeping off the Weight Once it is Lost
So how do you keep off weight once it has been lost? When
you lose weight as part of a weight loss plan or diet, you
want to ensure that weight stays off for good.
Unfortunately although people lose weight, most tend to put
back on within a couple of months. Repeating these
behaviours over a long period results in a permanent
"yo-yo" dieting, weight constantly being lost then put back
on again.

The secret is to break up that behavioural pattern of "yo
yo" dieting and replace it with a new pattern which will
allow you to lose and then maintain your weight.

Following the 5 steps below willgive you a clear direction
to being able to maintain any weight you have lost.

Step 1 Stick to a routine:

It is very important to keep that routine in your life,
which made you lose weight in the first place. The problem
starts when you lose weight, achieve the weight loss target
and just relax. The main purpose of the diet and fitness
routine was designed to allow you to lose weight in the
first place. Try to stick to your diet / weight loss plan
but occasionally eat in between, enjoy parties go to
restaurants from time to time. However keep a sensible
limit to it. Do the same for your physical activities. But
now you can reduce the time and duration. For example if
you used to have exercises 5 times a week, now you can do
it three times a week.

Step 2: Check your weight on a regular basis:

Make sure you have a weight scale, keeping it in a place
where you can see it on a regular basis, for example the
bathroom ,bedroom or even your workplace. Also weigh
yourself everyday where possible. Try to do this in the
evening or before going to bed. This is because that is the
time when you weigh your maximum. In the mornings your
weight is always reduced, this would then give you a false
impression that you've lost weight and consequently you
would eat more that day. Doing this checking of weight on
a regular basis keeps your body in shape. So if you need
lose weight it only tends to be a few pounds you need to
lose.

Step 3. Have routine medical check ups:

Make sure you get your routine medical checkups, and when
you get your check up, make sure you get checked for those
things that tend to increase weight. These include thyroid
problems, hormonal imbalances, water retention and stress.
With women Pregnancy and Pre Menstrual Syndrome (PMS) can
have a dramatic increase in weight. All these factors must
taken into consideration when trying to maintain your
weight.

Step 4. Stick to your size:

Make sure you do your best to keep the same clothes size.
Whether you are size 10, 12 or 14 , stick to it like glue.
If you buy a dress or suit in your size and you think it is
too tight or uncomfortable . Don't alter your clothes, what
you need to do is to alter yourself. Trim your body and
lose some pounds. This will stop you getting into the
habit of altering your clothes to disguise your weight.

Step 5. Ask your partner or friends to help you:

Having a support group of friends and family to lose pounds
and maintain weight is an effective way to encourage you,
and increase your chances of succeeding. Your friends and
your family will appreciate you for you trying to improve
your life for the better. Friends and family will be
reluctant to offer you something to eat that is not healthy
for you. If you want a honest opinion about your weight you
are more likely to get it from friends and family than
complete strangers.

I hope these 5 key steps to maintain lost weight will help
you through the rest of your life.

Good luck for maintaining that lost weight.

Proven - Lack of Certain Nutrients Leads to Numerous Unnecessary Illnesses

Proven - Lack of Certain Nutrients Leads to Numerous Unnecessary Illnesses
My wife and I were just looking for a safe, effective way
to help our sons' "un-curable" health challenge, but we've
learned some amazing tidbits and facts along the way. I
hope you will feel like you've learned something helpful
via this article about "subtle and typically unknown", yet
absolutely profound, nutrient deficiencies all around us.

Did you know that USDA scientific studies show that in
1951, an adult women could consume just 2 peaches and
receive the current RDA of vitamin A, yet today, that women
would have to consume over 50 peaches to receive the same
amount of vitamin A? (USDA Study results noted in
Pediatrics Journal, 1998, 133(5): 593-600.)

Actually USDA nutrient charts show an average of greater
than 25% nutrient losses for all fruits and vegetables.
Even the broccoli in the grocery store that you think is
chocked full of excellent nutrients for you and your family
has about 40% less nutrients than broccoli grown
organically and on mineral rich soil of just a few decades
ago.

These kinds of nutrient deficiencies in both vitamin and
mineral content have been noted in many studies and,
because of this the USDA has now changed their 5-7 servings
of FRESH fruits and vegetables to 10-12 servings daily and
both they and the AMA (JAMA, Jun 2002) have added the
recommendation to include a quality supplement in your
diet. They recognize we are not getting all of what our
bodies need from modern grown food.

There are lots of reasons for these nutrient decreases,
some of them being:

Green picking, failure to let the soil rest, chemical
fertilizer dependence including just the minerals NPK
(which is all that's needed to grow good looking crops, yet
our bodies need 50+ minerals to function optimally) and the
widespread usage of toxic chemicals.

Quoting U.S. Senate document #264: "The alarming fact is
that foods (fruits, vegetables, and grains) now being
raised on millions of acres of land that no longer contain
enough of certain minerals and are starving us. No matter
how much of them we eat, no man today can eat enough fruits
and vegetables to supply his system with the minerals he
requires for perfect health because his stomach isn't big
enough to hold them. The truth is that our foods vary
enormously in value, and some of them aren't worth eating
as food."

To Your Health & Longevity.
