[www.keralites.net] Does High Uric Acid in Blood causes Kidney Stones?

 

 Does High Uric Acid In Blood Cause Kidney Stones?
Uric acid is a waste product from our human body, the excess of which causes medical problems like Gout. Gout is a disorder in which uric acid builds up in the blood and gets deposited in joints.
Gout causes painful inflammation in one or more joints. A gout attack typically causes pain, swelling, redness, and warmth (inflammation) in a single joint, usually the big toe.
High Uric Acid 
Uric acid comes from the breakdown of substances called purines. Purines are found in our body's tissues. They are also found in many foods we eat such as dried beans and peas and liver, for example. Uric acid normally dissolves in the blood, processes through the kidney, and leaves the body in the urine. When the body makes extra uric acid, or if the kidneys cannot clear enough of it, then uric acid levels in the blood hikes leading to hyperuricemia.
There are two main factors that lead to high amount of uric acid build up in the body.
When the body makes too much of uric acid
When the body finds it difficult to get rid of the uric acid
Gout is a condition which develops as concentrations of uric acid in the blood get so high resulting in the acid starting to solidify itself. This results in the formation of salt like crystals. When the concentration of uric acid gets as high as about 7 milligrams per deciliter and above, these crystals start getting formed.
In such cases, the excess uric acid crystals get deposited in the kidneys. This can form large stones there.
These stones are very painful and can cause permanent kidney damage. They can –
Form an obstruction which prevents the kidneys from removing wastes resulting in infections
Scar the kidneys as they have rough and sharp edges
Both these problems can lead to chronic kidney disease and even kidney failure.
Kidney Stones
Kidney stones are abnormal, hard, chemical deposits that form inside the kidneys. This condition also is called nephrolithiasis or urolithiasis. They are often as small as grains of sand and can pass out of the body in urine without causing discomfort.
However, the deposits can be much larger, sometimes the size of a pea or even a marble.
How to reduce Uric Acid levels in blood
The first step of treatment is to bring about a change in one's eating habits.
One must eat fresh fruits and vegetables and take a whole grain rich diet every day.
Consumption of foods rich in purines like fatty red meats, poultry and seafood (tuna, codfish) must be reduced.
Medium purine foods like shrimp, lobster vegetables like cauliflower, spinach, mushrooms and green peas must be limited to a great extent.
Alcohol must be avoided altogether as it increases risk for gout attack. Intake of water must be increased as it helps flush out the excess uric acid.
Aim to drink at least 8-10 glasses of water on a daily basis.
Consult your dietitian and doctor and get a customized diet plan as some purine rich foods are also good sources of proteins.
Preventing a repeat gout attack is very important as it leads to a higher risk of heart elated disorders.

[www.keralites.net] Acupressure Weight Loss Programme

 

 Acupressure Weight Loss Program for Appetite Balancing, Eating Disorders & Food Cravings using Deep Breathing & Self-Massage
The Acupressure Weight Loss and body image program provides an easy daily routine to balance your metabolism, appetite, and body's energy system. Dieting alone is not enough. By actually working on your body – through gentle stretches, deep breathing, and self-massage on the acupressure points – you can transform your metabolism, eating imbalances, and cravings.
How does it Work? I produced the Acupressure Weight Loss Audio Program that guides you to gently stretch and move your body, which stimulates acupressure weight loss points. The program consists of 12 weight loss techniques, which activate the most important parts of your body for balancing your appetite, digestion, and elimination. This weight loss and body image program offers an effective approach to losing weight using three natural modalities:
Deep Breathing Exercises relax and calm you, gathering healing energy for reducing stress and improving your digestion.
Movement Stretches stimulate circulation in your abdominal area, regulating your appetite.
Self-Acupressure on key digestive points, increase your body's awareness, decrease your food cravings, and balance your appetite through self-massage.
Acupressure Weight Loss Points: One of these twelve techniques, for instance, presses an acupressure point in your lower abdomen, three finger widths below your belly button, to increase the strength and function of your intestines. This point (CV 6) alone can enable you to lose weight by stimulating your body's energy to eliminate properly. This routine includes massaging key ear points for eating disorders. By practicing this routine twice daily, you'll have less stress, better appetite balance, and a greater sense of wellness.
Weight Loss Ear Points are illustrated in this e-audio program. Dieting alone is not enough as an effective weight-loss program. Focusing on a specific diet with less calories and more fiber is excellent for temporarily losing weight, but does not get at the causes of food addictions, obsessions, yearnings and carvings. People can lose weight on low-calorie diets, but they tend to gain it back.

[www.keralites.net] Early Colon Cancer screening....

 

 
News Picture: Early Colon Cancer Screening Advised for Some



FRIDAY, March 9, 2018 (HealthDay News) -- From age 50 on, most people are advised to get a colonoscopy every 10 years to screen for colon cancer. But others may need to start screening earlier due to certain risk factors, an expert says.
People most at risk for colon cancer are those with a first-degree relative (parent, sibling or child) who has had the disease.
Someone with more than one family member who has had colon cancer is three to 12 times more likely to develop the disease than the average person, said Dr. Walter Koltun. He is chief of colon and rectal surgery at Penn State Health Medical Center.
Also at increased risk for colon cancer: those with a family history of gynecological cancers, such as breast, ovarian or endometrial cancer; men who've had radiation treatment for prostate cancer; and people with inflammatory bowel disease or colitis, Koltun said.
A personal or family history of colon polyps also raises your risk of colon cancer.
So it's important to know your family history and to follow colon cancer screening recommendations, he advised.
According to a March 2017 study from American Cancer Society researchers, the rate of colon and rectal cancer is increasing disproportionately in young and middle-aged adults.
"You should talk to your doctor sooner rather than later," Koltun said in a medical center news release.
