Healthy Tips : ABOUT CHOLESTEROL...?

ABOUT CHOLESTEROL...?


Cholesterol is a type of fat made in the liver and found in animal foods.

CHOLESTEROL IS NEEDED FOR IMPORTANT BODY FUNCTIONS. Such as...
* Building cell walls
* Protecting nerves
* Making hormones.

THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF CHOLESTEROL.
* THE GOOD. (HDL or High Density Lipid)
* THE BAD and the UGLY!! (LDL or Low Density Lipid.)

A higher level of HDL is needed to carry LDL from the BLOOD back to the
LIVER to be ELIMINATED from the body.

If there is a higher level of LDL cholesterol in the BLOOD this may:
* Cause high blood pressure!
* Raise your risk of heart attack!
* Raise your risk of stroke!
* Cause the kidneys to fail!

HOW ??

Cholesterol is broken down into LDL which is needed by the body cells. Once
The cells are satisfied the unused LDL remains to become what is known as
Blood cholesterol.

The main danger of high blood cholesterol is that fatty plaques may form
Which will decrease the diameter of blood vessels. This leads to a
Restriction of the flow of blood and oxygen to the tissues of the body.

* If an artery supplying blood to the HEART becomes blocked you may have a
Heart attack!

* If an artery supplying blood to the BRAIN becomes blocked you may have a
Stroke!

* If an artery supplying blood to the kidney becomes blocked you may suffer
Kidney failure.

Dogs can smell cancer and low blood sugar

The Pine Street Foundation, a cancer-education and research center in San Anselmo, Calif., published a study showing it was possible to train dogs to identify, based on breath samples, which patients had lung and breast cancer.

Now the organization is recruiting ovarian cancer patients and dogs for a new study. In diabetics, the presence of ketones—substances made by the body during the metabolic process—can be smelled in urine and on the breath when blood sugars are high. Dogs can pick up on other smells that humans can’t when glucose levels drop.

Is Anxiousness tends to anxiety ?

Worrying about things occasionally isn’t the same as having an anxiety disorder. All the anxieties are perfectly normal, but they’re usually overcome once the problem disappears or is faced by your child.

In contrast, a child with anxiety experiences the symptoms more intensely and more often, and it can seriously affect day-to-day school, home and social life. He/She can't immediately recover after experiencing a fearsome situation, such as going to school, and the symptoms can cause significant distress.

Anxiety is sometime tends from anxiousness / over anxiousness for any definite tasks and failure to recover anxiousness.

But this is not main reason of anxiety. Anxiety grabs us by many ways. Anxiety is one of the effects of depression and stress in life.
