WHAT HAVE WE DONE

They call it technological development,they want to make the world a better place but they only succeeded in poluting the world with sicknesses and diseases,they have only created things that they cannot control people are dying daily in the world and they can do nothing about it.Is God there Or is He just angry at the foolishness of the world.?Is He waiting for us to retrace our steps back to him?

I believe in the later,because he is a merciful God ,but the people just refuse to bring Him in to the situation of the world.

Then we talk about the tsunami disaster which i believe was caused because of polution to the sea.Ask the oil companies,all for the sake of money.look at the earthquake killing millons of people.

These are some of the problems facing the world, and there are others such as inflation,poverty, war and many more .who is responsible for all these?. we are and we really have to find a solution to the problem of the world.It starts with you and me.We can make the world a better place,if we try

STARDOM AND DRUG ABUSE

Growing up in the 1980's i fell in love with music most especially the music of Micheal Jackson,Bobby Brown,Whitney Houston and many more. As a matter of fact Bobby brown became my idol and Whitney became my main girl, all of their music and everything about them appeal to me.You can then imagine how i felt in 1988 when Whitney and Bobby got married it was as if i won a lottery, as if i will be leaving in the same house with them enjoying all the luxury that they have at their beck and call.

If you have succeeded in imagining how i felt then then it will be possible for you to now imagine my sadness when i began to get the news of their marriage failing and the fact that they are both drug addict. It was as if the world will end

But the world did not end, if at my age i feel this way about this couple i wonder how the younger ones will feel.What i now came to realise is the fact that it is as if drug use is not a taboo in the world of stars.Imagine the numbers of those stars that have been hooked on drugs some have successfully win the battle while some are still fighting the battle.Some have not even realise that it is a problem, some believe it is just a way of life.

Whitney and bobby are musicians, let us talk about the movie world.Many of the popular movie stars are coming out to admit their addiction to this disease killing the society little by little. Sport stars are getting disgraced every now and then simply because they have spike their system with drugs.I wonder what we will do about stardom and the tendency to destroy lives is it that the devil is giving them fame and taking their souls in return or is it just lack of discipline?.

The pictures above is convincing enough to show the damage the use of these drugs can do to human beings. You can see the transformation of these music stars. what do we talk about is the fact that some people make money from destroying the lives of others by selling this destructive substance to their fellow human beings.

We can talk about Stars and the popular people, but what about those unknown people dying of drug abuse and addiction every day. The devil is destroying the world and we are helping him to succeed. God is good to us all but according to the bible "what shall it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loose his soul". The world is nothing but vanity upon vanity, that is why we have to think about how we will live our lives in the life after,are we going to be proud of the legacy we will be living behind when we die.Let us think on these.

I pray for those who have been caught in this web that the good Lord will intervene and bring healing to them. but you need to turn to him first because when all treatment fails he alone can bring you what is called Divine healing.And for those who are in denial, you need to come out,seek help, talk to people and most importantly talk to God.

AGING AND ITS FACTORS

One thing that all human beings and animals have in common is aging which eventually leads to death, some of us have the pleasure of living to the ripe old age of 70,80 90, and above. No one in life prays to die young we all wake up everyday asking for the protection of God. For some of us who have lost loved one we know how painful it is. The lost of a mother, father and even pets affects us greatly and we wish that is nothing like death.

As time goes on we realize that aging or growing old is an inevitable part of life and all we can do is to accept this fact and try to either slow down the aging process or avoid the many diseases associated with growing old. We cannot reverse the process. Aging but there are factors that can be establish which can help us in slowing down this process.

It is no longer news that the average death age of people nowadays falls in 40s and the 50s, people are no longer leaving to the age of seventy and above. But the amazing revelation now is that there are developments that can help us to get to the age of 70 and even get to the age of 120. These as a lot to do with the things we know and not only knowing but the things we are ready to do. Leaving a well balanced life can help us to get to this old age and not only getting there but maintaining that youthfulness you crave.



Many of us neglect one major factor that beauty radiates from within and the more effort you make towards self happiness by having peace of mind and avoiding the stressful lifestyle you live can help you in achieving your youthfulness. There is hope for people to live healthy and more fulfilling life because of the advancement in technological development that encourages researches in the field of human health. Many companies have been able to discover the cause of aging quicker than normal and efforts are being made to slow down this Aging process.


Food or what goes in to your body is a determinant factor in your Aging process. The input you body receives can prevent some of the degenerative diseases associated with growing old, the nutrients and vitamin supply your body receives will enhanced the vitality of your body and prevent the acceleration of aging.

There are factors responsible for aging and they can be avoided if the right steps are taken. Some of the factors include: Free radicals, Glycation, Methylation, and Inflammation. To some people this terms will be strange but people with medical orientation will know what all these means. For the sake of the others I will take time in explaining what this terms means.

Free Radicals: human being needs the presence of oxygen to survive and for as long as we are exposed to oxygen then a process called oxidation will occur, which bring about the emit ion of substance called the free radicals in the body. These free radicals in the body quicken the aging process and can create a lot of damage to our health. Free radicals are just molecules in the body with an incomplete electron and through the process of searching for the electrons they affect the chemical structures of our body.

The body cannot avoid the free radicals because they are necessary evils, the small quantity of these radicals in the body can help the body develop but ones it is becoming excess then we have to take steps in addressing it.

Glycation on the other hand is much more dangerous than free radicals because this a process that use what the body needs to attack the body. The body needs protein to survive because protein helps the cells in the body to function properly meaning that protein should exist on it own not in conjunction with many other substances or what we call molecules. But this is not really possible because of the existence of some substances called the glycation agents these substances include: glucose molecules, sugars, and similar chemicals known as aldehydes. These chemicals attach themselves to the protein thereby preventing it from performing it primary function. These attachment leads to the formation of bio chemicals which attacks the body and speed up the aging process.


Methylation: This can simply be explained as the addition of the methyl group substances to the various constituents of protein, DNA and other molecules in the body. These is an important aspect of body metabolism which helps the body to function well the absence of methylation in the body can lead to death. This is how important methylation is to human existence. Methylation is an important aspect of the body but too much of it or the inadequate amount of it can lead to diseases such as Alzheimer and Dementia. The most dangerous effect of methylation is that it can lead to heart attack.
Inflammation is another factor that has to be monitored to prevent it negative effect on the human body. The cause of inflammation cannot be narrowed down to one thing but it can really destroy the human body because it has been proven that inflammation is responsible for almost all the diseases associated with old age. The fact that all the above mentioned factors are interrelated makes it difficult to actually trace the cause of this factor.

Preventing the negative impact of these factors: We have taken the pain to explain some of the factors that can accelerate the aging process, we now need to know how to handle these factors and make use of them to the benefit of our body.
The effect of Free radicals, Glycation, Methylation and Inflammation can be minimized by doing the following: we need to maintain a very clean environment devoid of pollution and radiation, though the technological advancement that we are witnessing all over the world will not make this easy but we really need to put a lot of effort into doing this. In the olden days I have read about people living to a very old age simply because they maintain their natural habitat, so the price of technology is what we are witnessing. The use of antioxidants can also help in reducing the negative effect of these factors in our body, the anti oxidant will help in eliminating the damaged cells in the body caused by factors. Anti-oxidants are available in unprocessed foods which are very difficult to come about now-a-days. The anti- oxidants are also available in the common vitamins that we take such as: Vitamin A, C, and E and other vitamin supplements. Avoid the intake of food that act as glycation agents, the consumption of food rich in carbohydrates and sugar can cause glycation and this will have a negative impact on the body. The cures and prevention of the negative impact of these factors on the body are interwoven simply because their actions on the body are also interwoven

Live your life without stress

Taking care of a pregnant woman for the required period before the birth of the baby takes a lot from both the woman and the husband, both financially and otherwise.taking all these into consideration, it will then be a sad thing to now give birth to this baby and now discover that there are(is) a deformity with this child.We all no what parents with heart deformities in their baby go through, it is not a pleasant thing at all not for the baby or the parent who will do any thing to prevent the death of the baby.

Babies are special gift from God and nobody will pray to have a deformed baby that is why all care must be taken to prevent infections that can affect our babies after birth.The major way to prevent this sort of deformity lies with the woman,Because research has shown that pregnant women with UTI(urinary tract infections)that has not been properly treated stand the risk of having babies with abnormal heart. I read this and i believe it will be wonderful for others to know

''Pregnant women with a UTI infection from one month before conception through the first trimester of pregnancy(three months of pregnancy).Are 70% likely to have such defect than women without UTI.Urinary tract infections are a serious problem that affect a lot of people worldwide.they are the most common type of infection in the body and according to the experts women are more prone to this infection, but reason for this is still being studied.One woman out of five develops a UTI during her lifetime.

Men are not that prone to having this infection but whenever they do it is always very serious because of the symptoms.But not every one that has this infection exhibits the symptoms.the most common symptoms include frequent urge to urinate and a painful,burning feeling when urinating.

According to research the use of vitamins,folic acid and other factors such as age ,race,ethnicity,exposure to sulfonamidedrugs or even the exposure of such babies to various environmental factors such as alcohol had no effect on determining which baby may end up having this defects.

Birth defects can affect any part of the organ such as the brain, heart,lungs,liver,bones and the intestines and there are many reasons for such defect which include inherited conditions,toxic exposures of the unborn baby, birth injury and in many cases for unknown reasons.

But from researches carried out on women in the university of Arkansas for Medical Sciences headed by doctor Mario Cl eves and his team it was established that mothers of children with this deformities are more likely to report having UTI at some point in their pregnancy.

PREVENTION:

Doctor therefore suggest that to prevent this urinary tract infection, a woman should do the following:

DRINK PLENTY OF WATER EVERY DAY

URINATE WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE ; DO NOT RESIST THE URGE TO URINATE.

WIPE FROM FRONT TO BACK TO PREVENT BACTERIA FROM AROUND THE ANUS FROM ENTERING THE VAGINA.

TAKE SHOWERS INSTEAD OF TUB BATH

CLEANSE THE GENITAL AREA BEFORE SEXUAL INTERCOURSE

AVOID USING FEMININE HYGIENE SPRAYS AND SCENTED DOUCHES,WHICH MAY IRRITATE THE URETHRA.

KEEP THE VAGINAL AREA CLEAN, WIPING FROM FRONT TO BACK AFTER A BOWEL MOVEMENT TO PREVENT CONTAMINATION OF THE URINARY TRACT.

USE TAMPONS AND CHANGE EVERY THREE TO FOUR HOURS,INSTEAD OF SANITARY PADS(THE PADS CAN ACT AS A CULTURE MEDIUM FOR FAE CAL BACTERIA,WHICH MAY THEN BE RUBBED AGAINST THE URINARY OUTLET AND INVADE THE BLADDER)

WEAR COTTON UNDERGARMENTS, WHICH ALLOW AIR CIRCULATION AND DISCOURAGE THE WARM ,MOIST ENVIRONMENT NEEDED FOR BACTERIA GROWTH,NYLON PANTYHOSE SHOULD HAVE A COTTON CROTCH.

AVOID WEARING TIGHT CLOTHES IN THE GENITAL AREA SUCH AS CONTROL -TOP PANTYHOSE AND SKINTIGHT JEANS,AS WELL AS EXTENDED WEARING OF A WET BATHING SUIT.

URINATE BEFORE AND AFTER INTERCOURSE AND MAKE SURE THAT THE PARTNER'S HANDS AND PENIS ARE CLEAN''.

These are some of the things we can do to prevent this infection and have healthy,beautiful and wonderful babies
