This presentation shows the aspect of healthy aging. How to age gracefully without any much effort, Slight changes in daily diet and lifestyle can help to slow down aging process.
Iron cannot be substituted by anything else.
Iron is an important part of the red blood cells that carry oxygen to all the cells of the body. If we don´t have enough we easily run short of breath, get tired and have problems concentrating. Our bodies contain 4-5 grammes of iron. It may be difficult to get enough of this important nutrient unless meat courses are part of the diet. Fruit, cereals and vegetables contain relatively little of useful iron. If you’re suffering from low iron, no amount of vitamins or any other supplement is going to change it.
MSUD is metabolic genetic error . It happens due to lack of an enzyem that degrades specific amino acids
Homocystinuria is also a metbolic genetic error due to an enzyme defficiency it leads to an accumulation of homocystein and related chemical in the blood

Folic acid and vitamin B9, is one of the B vitamins.The recommended daily intake level of folate is 400 micrograms from foods or dietary supplements.Folic acid is used to treat anemia caused by folic acid deficiency.It is also used as a supplement by women during pregnancy to prevent neural tube defects (NTDs) in the baby.
Ageing is a gradual process that takes place over many decades. Most theories of ageing relate to impaired DNA replication and loss of cell viability and hence the viability of the body’s organs. Ageing is often accompanied by socioeconomic changes that can have a great impact on the nutritional needs and status of elderly individuals. The incidence of disability increases with ageing, with over a third of the elderly population limited by chronic conditions and unable to carry on normal daily living activity
ED refers to erectile dysfunction that happens in males. It is an inability to keep an erection of the penis during sexual intercourse and is also called as impotence.
This presentation is about the introduction to Diabetes Mellitus. This lifestyle disease has become common in the current generation. This presentation is about diabetes, its classification, the definition of DM, individual types with causes, events, changes, symptoms and treatments.
Glutathione is the essential antioxidant for body health help, a strengthener, and Immune stimulant. This small protein, naturally produced in the body, keeps these three protective functions.
Glutathione is used to counteract some of the side effects of medical treatments. For example, it is used for the side effects of cancer chemotherapy, including diarrhea, pain and inflammation within the mouth (mucositis), nervous pain (neuropathy), and muscle and joint pain caused by the medication for Texel cancer.

Nutrition is the science that interprets the nutrients and other substances in food in relation maintenance,growth,reproduction, health and disease of an organism. It includes food intake, absorption, assimilation, biosynthesis, catabolism
and excretion.
Liposomal vitamin c: Also referred to as L-ascorbic acid, soluble in water (hydrosoluble) and powerful antioxidant. It is essential for tissue repair and growth and collagen synthesis in blood vessels, bones and cartilages.
Alcohol is a toxin in higher doses, when it is associated with polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA)
induces oxidative stress & hepatotoxicity Alcohol destroys the cells lining in the stomach and intestines that
mediate the absorption of nutrients. Alcohol greatly increases lead absorption. Low concentration of lead may
disturb normal biochemical process in the hepato billary system. Lead overload causes liver cells to become
enlarged into hyperplasia (initiating the formation of tumours in the liver); Liver cells die more rapidly and are
replaced by fatty deposits. Acetaldehyde, a major toxic metabolite, is one of the principal culprits mediating
fibrogenic and mutagenic effects of alcohol in the liver.
Liver cirrhosis leads to depletion of nutrients The by-products of alcohol metabolism generate oxidants that
can contribute to cell damage. An imbalance between oxidants and antioxidants (substances that neutralize
oxidation) can create oxidative stress, a state marked by continued production of oxidizing agents and
escalation of cell damage,
The cumulative result is that hepatotoxicity develops, liver becomes unable to neutralize oxidants’ scavenging
capacity is lost. There is escalation of cell damage leading to degeneration of liver cells; regenerative capacity
is lost under such critical situation. we need the drugs which have scavenging capacity to detoxify the liver,
bioavailability is high,and is anti oxidant, Such compound can’t be synthesized easily in laboratory .In
Indigenous Medicine System ,there are sevsral herbs which are effective in liver disease.

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine.

What is glutathione deficiency
1. What is glutathione
deficiency?
Glutathione deficiency is a disorder that prevents the body from
producing glutathione. Glutathione is a molecule that constitutes
three amino acids and is essential for the maintenance of
normal functions of the body's immune system.
Quicksilver Scientific
5/24/2018
2. Glutathione prevents cell damage by destroying harmful or unstable
molecules in the energy process. It also helps in the construction of DNA
and protein and plays an important role in the treatment of ingested drugs
and carcinogens...
This disease is mainly caused by the mutation or mutation of the
glutathione synthesize gene and is hereditary.
However, metabolic disorders such as diabetes and various congenital
diseases may also lead to glutathione deficiency.
The occurrence of glutathione deficiency involves three phases, namely
mild, moderate and severe. The initial symptoms of deficiency include
vomiting, diarrhea, anemia, and abdominal pain.
These are similar to the symptoms of multiple sclerosis or vitamin B12
deficiency. When glutathione deficiency occurs, a compound called 5-
oxoproline accumulates in blood, urine, and spinal fluid.
Other symptoms include hemolytic anemia caused by red blood cells and
metabolic acidosis. Symptoms of moderate deficiency are the same as mild
symptoms but are more severe.
Severe glutathione deficiency involves neurological disorders such as
psychomotor retardation, characterized by physical reactions, delays in
movement and speech.
3. Epilepsy, loss of coordination and mental retardation may also
occur. More severe bacterial infections may also occur.
The metabolic acidosis was mainly corrected with a proper dose of sodium
citrate and citric acid, and the antioxidants vitamins E and C helped treat
glutathione deficiency.
Depending on the time of discovery, sooner or later, these methods can
often be used to repair glutathione levels.
Alpha-lipoid acid and N-acetylcysteine are also used to treat this
deficiency. Alpha-lipoid acid is a more effective antioxidant than vitamin
E and C.
Although a rare disorder, glutathione deficiency is a chronic and life-
threatening disease. Mild or moderate patients usually need to live under
the supervision of a doctor, while patients with severe deficiencies are not
optimistic.
Even with treatment, patients still face serious problems such as mental
retardation, seizures, and neurological deterioration.
4. Side effects of glutathione
Glutathione can be produced either by the body or from food. It is a
nutrient that helps the body prevents various diseases.
Because they provide many health benefits, some people take this health
supplement to help improve their health.
Although most people have a good tolerance for glutathione, it has some
side effects like other nutrients. The most common of these are shortness of
breath, itching and allergy symptoms... In addition, taking glutathione
occasionally causes chest pain and skin whitening.
Glutathione is a protein molecule that can be naturally produced by the
human body. In addition, many natural foods including fruits and
vegetables also contain it.
Many scientists believe that most people can get enough glutathione from
their daily diet. But malnourished people may need to supplement this
nutrition.
In most cases, there is no need to worry about the adverse effects of
glutathione supplements, but some people may experience itching and
rash, and even swelling and other allergic symptoms.
5. In addition, there are occasional side effects such as shortness of breath
and chest pain. Immediately after finding adverse reactions, stop taking
this health supplement and seek medical assistance.
Although rare, some people may experience glutathione side effects such
as skin discoloration or zinc absorption.
Especially in the case of large doses, it is more likely to cause skin
whitening. In addition, there are reports that zinc deficiency is also
associated with the use of this nutrient.
Some nutrition experts claim that oral glutathione is not well absorbed by
the body and therefore does not bring health benefits to the body.
Because of this, some people are more inclined to use the precursor form
of nutrition, that is, to help the body produce its own glutathione health
products. In addition, intravenous injection, although it produces faster
results, is not ideal for most people.
Male infertility and glutathione
It is a well-known fact that the number of male sperm has been reduced
by an average of half in the past 50 years. And modern men have reduced
their semen volume by more than 20% compared to their fathers.
6. The relevant content was published in Volume 305 of the British Medical
Journal, 1992. A recent report from a study in Aberdeen showed that
men's sperm concentration has decreased by 29% over the past 14 years.
Continuing organic pollutants and chemicals that interfere with endocrine
secretion are known. Daily plastics can cause damage to the reproductive
system...
Exposure to chemicals such as alcohol, pesticides, and food additives is
one of the causes of mental retardation and disorders in children.
Dangerous lifestyles known to reduce sperm quality include smoking,
alcohol consumption, long-term stress, and nutritional deficiencies.
Other causes of male infertility include congenital factors. Health
conditions such as prostitutes and diabetes can also affect sperm
production.
Pollution is a theft of our future, and not many people can avoid it. We
are almost at a loss about the toxins that we face.
However, certain measures can also be taken to minimize environmental
pollution and the effects of toxins on the body. For example, they can
prevent and repair their damage to the body through better lifestyles and
nutrition.
7. Some nutritional therapies and antioxidants have proven beneficial in the
treatment of male infertility and increase sperm count, sperm morphology
and motor function. They include carnation, argentine, zinc, selenium,
vitamin B12, vitamin C, vitamin E, glutathione, and coenzyme Q10.
Studies have shown that supplementing with antioxidants (especially
glutathione) can improve sperm quality and increase muscle growth.
Therefore, if you smoke, drink, have stress, chemicals, radiation,
pesticides, or take drugs that affect fertility, such as acetomazole,
salicylic acid, anabolic steroids and marijuana, etc., you should consider
adding antioxidants to reverse damage.
Why are antioxidants important for improving
sperm quality?
Mammalian sperm is covered with a layer of polyunsaturated fatty
acids. These unsaturated fatty acids are easily destroyed by free radicals
or reactive oxygen species. Lipid per oxidation damages the sperm cell
membrane, which is considered to be a key mechanism for reactive oxygen-
induced sperm damage and leads to loss of sperm viability, abnormal
sperm morphology, decreased acolyte infiltration capacity, and infertility.
In order to protect sperm from damage, the body relies on powerful in
vivo antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase, catalane and
glutathione peroxides/reeducates. There are several antioxidant enzymes
in seminal plasma and sperm, including glutathione peroxides,
8. glutathione reeducates, and superoxide dismutase. Proper antioxidant
enzyme activity can protect sperm from oxidative attack. Glutathione
peroxides/reeducates enzymes play a central role in protecting against
damage to human sperm by oxidation.
Why is glutathione important for sperm quality and
fertility?
The reduction in prototypical glutathione levels, due to increased oxidative
stress, disrupts sperm membrane integrity during sperm production.
Decreased levels of glutathione in sperm are one of the causes of
infertility in men. There is clear clinical evidence that men suffering from
infertility have high levels of oxidative stress, which may hamper their
sperm quality.
Why glutathione helps treat male infertility?
The results of the study indicate that glutathione treatment may be an
effective treatment, especially when reactive oxygen or exposure to toxic
substances may cause infertility.
