From navigating policy options to staying informed about industry trends, this comprehensive guide explores everything you need to know about the health insurance market.
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

WEIGHT LOSE
1. FIRSTLY YOU SHOULD CHECK OUT THE LINKS:
https://linktr.ee/muhammadhassan11031996
Healthful meals and snacks should form the foundation of the human diet. A
simple way to create a meal plan is to make sure that each meal consists of
50 percent fruit and vegetables, 25 percent whole grains, and 25 percent
protein. Total fiber intake should be 25–30 grams (g) daily.
Eliminate trans fats from the diet, and minimize the intake of saturated fats,
which has a strong link with the incidence of coronary heart disease.
Instead, people can consume monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) or
polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), which are types of unsaturated fat.
The following foods are healthful and often rich in nutrients:
fresh fruits and vegetables
fish
legumes
nuts
seeds
whole grains, such as brown rice and oatmeal
Foods to avoid eating include:
foods with added oils, butter, and sugar
fatty red or processed meats
baked goods
bagels
white bread
2. processed foods
In some cases, removing certain foods from the diet might cause a person to
become deficient in some necessary vitamins and minerals. A nutritionist,
dietitian, or another healthcare professional can advise a person how to get
enough nutrients while they are following a weight loss program.
2. Keep a food and weight diary
Self-monitoring is a critical factor in successfully losing weight. People can
use a paper diary, mobile app, or dedicated website to record every item of
food that they consume each day. They can also measure their progress by
recording their weight on a weekly basis.
Those who can track their success in small increments and identify physical
changes are much more likely to stick to a weight loss regimen.
People can also keep track of their body mass index (BMI) using a BMI
calculator.
3. Engage in regular physical activity and exercise
3. Shar e on Pi
nt
er
est
Regular physical activity can help a person lose weight.
Regular exercise is vital for both physical and mental health. Increasing the
frequency of physical activity in a disciplined and purposeful way is often
crucial for successful weight loss.
One hour of moderate-intensity activity per day, such as brisk walking, is
ideal. If one hour per day is not possible, the Mayo Clinic suggests that a
person should aim for a minimum of 150 minutes every week.
4. People who are not usually physically active should slowly increase the
amount of exercise that they do and gradually increase its intensity. This
approach is the most sustainable way to ensure that regular exercise
becomes a part of their lifestyle.
In the same way that recording meals can psychologically help with weight
loss, people may also benefit from keeping track of their physical activity.
Many free mobile apps are available that track a person’s calorie balance after
they log their food intake and exercise.
If the thought of a full workout seems intimidating to someone who is new to
exercise, they can begin by doing the following activities to increase their
exercise levels:
taking the stairs
raking leaves
walking a dog
gardening
dancing
playing outdoor games
parking farther away from a building entrance
Individuals who have a low risk of coronary heart disease are unlikely to
require medical assessment ahead of starting an exercise regimen.
However, prior medical evaluation may be advisable for some people,
including those with diabetes. Anyone who is unsure about safe levels of
exercise should speak to a healthcare professional.
4. Eliminate liquid calories
5. It is possible to consume hundreds of calories a day by drinking sugar-
sweetened soda, tea, juice, or alcohol. These are known as “empty calories”
because they provide extra energy content without offering any nutritional
benefits.
Unless a person is consuming a smoothie to replace a meal, they should aim
to stick to water or unsweetened tea and coffee. Adding a splash of fresh
lemon or orange to water can provide flavor.
Avoid mistaking dehydration for hunger. An individual can often satisfy feelings
of hunger between scheduled meal times with a drink of water.
5. Measure servings and control portions
Eating too much of any food, even low-calorie vegetables, can result in weight
gain.
Therefore, people should avoid estimating a serving size or eating food
directly from the packet. It is better to use measuring cups and serving size
guides. Guessing leads to overestimating and the likelihood of eating a larger-
than-necessary portion.
The following size comparisons can be useful for monitoring food intake when
dining out:
three-fourths of a cup is a golf ball
one-half of a cup is a tennis ball
1 cup is a baseball
1 ounce (oz) of nuts is a loose handful
1 teaspoon is 1 playing die
1 tablespoon is a thumb tip
6. 3 oz of meat is a deck of cards
1 slice is a DVD
These sizes are not exact, but they can help a person moderate their food
intake when the correct tools are not available.
6. Eat mindfully
Many people benefit from mindful eating, which involves being fully aware of
why, how, when, where, and what they eat.
Making more healthful food choices is a direct outcome of becoming more in
tune with the body.
People who practice mindful eating also try to eat more slowly and savor their
food, concentrating on the taste. Making a meal last for 20 minutes allows the
body to register all of the signals for satiety.
It is important to focus on being satisfied after a meal rather than full and to
bear in mind that many “all natural” or low-fat foods are not necessarily a
healthful choice.
People can also consider the following questions regarding their meal choice:
Is it good “value” for the calorie cost?
Will it provide satiety?
Are the ingredients healthful?
If it has a label, how much fat and sodium does it contain?
7. Stimulus and cue control
7. Many social and environmental cues might encourage unnecessary eating.
For example, some people are more likely to overeat while watching
television. Others have trouble passing a bowl of candy to someone else
without taking a piece.
By being aware of what may trigger the desire to snack on empty calories,
people can think of ways to adjust their routine to limit these triggers.
8. Plan ahead
Stocking a kitchen with diet-friendly foods and creating structured meal plans
will result in more significant weight loss.
People looking to lose weight or keep it off should clear their kitchen of
processed or junk foods and ensure that they have the ingredients on hand to
make simple, healthful meals. Doing this can prevent quick, unplanned, and
careless eating.
Planning food choices before getting to social events or restaurants might also
make the process easier.
9. Seek social support
8. Shar e on Pi
nt
er
est
Having social support is a great way to stay motivated.
Embracing the support of loved ones is an integral part of a successful weight
loss journey.
9. Some people may wish to invite friends or family members to join them, while
others might prefer to use social media to share their progress.
Other avenues of support may include:
a positive social network
group or individual counseling
exercise clubs or partners
employee-assistance programs at work
10. Stay positive
Weight loss is a gradual process, and a person may feel discouraged if the
pounds do not drop off at quite the rate that they had anticipated.
Some days will be harder than others when sticking to a weight loss or
maintenance program. A successful weight-loss program requires the
individual to persevere and not give up when self-change seems too difficult.
Some people might need to reset their goals, potentially by adjusting the total
number of calories they are aiming to eat or changing their exercise patterns.
The important thing is to keep a positive outlook and be persistent in working
toward overcoming the barriers to successful weight loss.
Losing weight
Successful weight loss does not require people to follow a specific diet plan,
such as Slimming World or Atkins. Instead, they should focus on eating fewer
calories and moving more to achieve a negative energy balance.
10. Weight loss is primarily dependent on reducing the total intake of calories, not
adjusting the proportions of carbohydrate, fat, and protein in the diet.
A reasonable weight loss goal to start seeing health benefits is a 5–10 percent
reduction in body weight over a 6-month time frame.
Most people can achieve this goal by reducing their total calorie intake to
somewhere in the range of 1,000–1,600 calories per day.
A diet of fewer than 1,000 calories per day will not provide sufficient
daily nutrition.
After 6 months of dieting, the rate of weight loss usually declines, and body
weight tends to plateau because people use less energy at a lower body
weight. Following a weight maintenance program of healthful eating habits
and regular physical activity is the best way to avoid regaining lost weight.
People who have a BMI equal to or higher than 30 with no obesity-related
health problems may benefit from taking prescription weight-loss medications.
These might also be suitable for people with a BMI equal to or higher than 27
with obesity-related diseases.
However, a person should only use medications to support the above lifestyle
modifications. If attempts to lose weight are unsuccessful and a person’s BMI
reaches 40 or over, surgical therapy is an option.
