Essential fatty acid deficiencies can cause skin problems like dry, scaly rashes and slower wound healing. They may also lead to cognitive issues like learning deficits and increased dementia risk due to lack of important fats like DHA for brain and eye development. Consuming too much fat can result in obesity, constipation, atherosclerosis, and increased cancer risk due to factors like high cholesterol, low fiber intake, and overweight conditions straining the body. Maintaining a well-balanced diet is important to avoid deficiencies or excesses of fats.

Preserving Nutrients in Food/Preservation of NutrientsMansi Langalia
Nutrients often diminish as soon as they are picked from farm till they reach consumer and decline till they are eaten.
In this presentation we will look into various unit operations and how they affect level of nutrition in Finished Goods.
Let's have a look on some Do's and Dont's for technical professional as well consumer.
Most of the foods we eat, provide several nutrients. So to make a wiser diet plan, it is prudent to select a combination of foods that deliver a full contingent of nutrients for good health. Our major focus should be on selecting foods that will deliver all the essential nutrients without excessive energy intake. Food choices made over years influence the body’s health, and consistently poor choices increase the risks of developing chronic diseases.

Hello everyone,
The aim of this powerpoint presentation is to raise the self awareness concerning th use of sugar. If you want to leave longer , you just have to omit sugar from your life !
I hope you will enjoy my humble work :)
DID YOU KNOW THAT-The Bitter Truth About Sugarkevinmounts
The Bitter Truth About Sugaris one of the three kinds of carbohydrate: starch, fiber and sugar. Sugar is found only in foods of plant origin. In food, sugar is classified as either naturally occurring or added. Naturally occurring sugars include lactose in milk, fructose in fruit, honey and vegetables and maltose in beer. Added sugars originate from corn, beets, grapes, and sugar cane, which are processed before being added to foods. The body cannot tell the difference between naturally occurring and added sugars because they are identical chemically. Although, food sources of naturally occurring sugars also provide vitamins and minerals, while foods containing added sugars provides mainly calories and very few vitamins and minerals. For this reason, the calories in added sugar are called “empty calories”.
Since the average American consumes 56 gallons of soda each year, it's important to evaluate how soft drinks can influence a person’s health. With a little research, it becomes clear that even moderate consumption of soda can be dangerous.
Water is vital for our survival. Our body loses its fluids during various processes and intake of enough fluids is crucial for maintaining a healthy body. The imbalance of fluids due to low water intake causes dehydration which can have severe consequences. Staying hydrated is imperative in order to stay healthy.

Being a metropolitan, the city is filled with towering building and beaches but the sad part as with almost every Indian city
Defecation
Normal defecation begins with movement in the left colon, moving stool toward the anus. When stool reaches the rectum, the distention causes relaxation of the internal sphincter and an awareness of the need to defecate. At the time of defecation, the external sphincter relaxes, and abdominal muscles contract, increasing intrarectal pressure and forcing the stool out
The Valsalva maneuver exerts pressure to expel faeces through a voluntary contraction of the abdominal muscles while maintaining forced expiration against a closed airway. Patients with cardiovascular disease, glaucoma, increased intracranial pressure, or a new surgical wound are at greater risk for cardiac dysrhythmias and elevated blood pressure with the Valsalva maneuver and need to avoid straining to pass the stool.
Normal defecation is painless, resulting in passage of soft, formed stool
CONSTIPATION
Constipation is a symptom, not a disease. Improper diet, reduced fluid intake, lack of exercise, and certain medications can cause constipation. For example, patients receiving opiates for pain after surgery often require a stool softener or laxative to prevent constipation. The signs of constipation include infrequent bowel movements (less than every 3 days), difficulty passing stools, excessive straining, inability to defecate at will, and hard feaces
IMPACTION
Fecal impaction results from unrelieved constipation. It is a collection of hardened feces wedged in the rectum that a person cannot expel. In cases of severe impaction the mass extends up into the sigmoid colon.
DIARRHEA
Diarrhea is an increase in the number of stools and the passage of liquid, unformed feces. It is associated with disorders affecting digestion, absorption, and secretion in the GI tract. Intestinal contents pass through the small and large intestine too quickly to allow for the usual absorption of fluid and nutrients. Irritation within the colon results in increased mucus secretion. As a result, feces become watery, and the patient is unable to control the urge to defecate. Normally an anal bag is safe and effective in long-term treatment of patients with fecal incontinence at home, in hospice, or in the hospital. Fecal incontinence is expensive and a potentially dangerous condition in terms of contamination and risk of skin ulceration
HEMORRHOIDS
Hemorrhoids are dilated, engorged veins in the lining of the rectum. They are either external or internal.
FLATULENCE
As gas accumulates in the lumen of the intestines, the bowel wall stretches and distends (flatulence). It is a common cause of abdominal fullness, pain, and cramping. Normally intestinal gas escapes through the mouth (belching) or the anus (passing of flatus)
FECAL INCONTINENCE
Fecal incontinence is the inability to control passage of feces and gas from the anus. Incontinence harms a patient’s body image

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.
2. Effects of Fat Deficiency on Humans
SKIN PROBLEMS
• When essential fatty acids are missing from our diet it can
cause skin problems.
• An essential fatty acid deficiency increases the loss of water
from your skin, which results in dry, scaly rash.
• This type of deficiency can also make it harder for your
wounds to heal.
3. • Not having enough DHA may result in learning deficits and
increase the risk for certain types of dementia.
COGNITIVE PROBLEMS
• Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)
are essential for brain.
4. VISION PROBLEMS
• EPA and DHA are also important components of the retina.
• DHA helps form the pigment rhodopsin, which you need for your
brain to turn the light hitting your retina into the images you see.
5. Effects of Excess Fat in Humans
OBESITY
• Taking in more calories than you can
expend in an average day makes you
gain weight, placing strain on your
cardiovascular, respiratory and other
body systems.
6. CONSTIPATION
• Diets that are high in fat can affect your digestive organs.
• If a diet is high in saturated fat to the detriment of your fiber
intake, you may become constipated frequently.
7. ATHEROSCLEROSIS
• Consuming a lot of saturated fat affects your blood cholesterol
and arterial health.
• When blood cholesterol rises, arterial bleeding and damage can
occur that encourages the build-up of plaque on artery walls.
8. CANCER
• An excess of fat and shortage fiber in your diet can cause
cancerous cellular growth.
9. • Overweight conditions resulting
from too much fat consumption
also increase the risk of
developing cancer of the colon,
gall bladder, kidney and other
reproductive organs.
