Prostat, prosthate

Bila prostat membengkak ia akan menjadikan saluran kencing tertutup.Air kecil sukar dikeluarkan dan pesakit akan terasa kesakitan yang amat sangat.Terapi di hospital ialah menggunakan tiup yang dimasukan melalui saluran kencing.Prostat yang asalnya hanya 8 gm kini membesar menjadi 100 gm.Jika peradangan ini dibiarkan ia akan menjadi kanser dan merbahaya. Bila berlaku pembengkakkan prostat jauhi makanan berlemak dan daging.Makanan yang bergoreng dengan minyak juga perlu dijauhi dan lakukan riadah di waktu petang.Tekanan juga boleh menyebabkan pembengkakkan prostat . Herba utama yang dicadangkan ialah shark cartilage(buka 2 kapsul,masuk dalam gelas di bancuh bersama air suam 3 kali sehari). Selain daripada itu boleh menggunakan produk HPA yang lain seperti :- 1. Grapeseed oil soft gel 2. Minyak zaitun soft gel 3. Flaxseed oil soft gel 4. Omega 3.soft gel

How Cancer Cell Develop and Multiply, Bagaimana Sel Kanser terjadi dan membiak

Acidosis Acidosis is a condition in which there is too much acid in the body fluids. It is the opposite of alkalosis (a condition in which there is too much base in the body fluids).(Asidosis adalah keadaan dimana terlalu banyak kandungan air dalam sel tubuh yang bersifat Asid. Ianya disebalik keadaan Alkalosis - dimana keadaan air sel tubuh banyak bersifat Alkali) Causes The kidneys and lungs maintain the balance (proper pH level) of chemicals called acids and bases in the body. Acidosis occurs when acid builds up or when bicarbonate (a base) is lost. Acidosis is classified as either respiratory acidosis or metabolic acidosis. (Penyebab - Buah pinggang dan Paru paru berfungsi sebagai penyeimbang paras PH cecair dipanggil Asid dan Alkali. Asidosis terjadi apabila jumlah asid bertambah atau apabile bikarbonat (ALkali) menurun. Asidosis dikategorikan sebagai Asidosis pernafasan atau asidosis metabolik.) Respiratory acidosis develops when there is too much carbon dioxide (an acid) in the body. This type of acidosis is usually caused when the body is unable to remove enough carbon dioxide through breathing. Other names for respiratory acidosis are hypercapnic acidosis and carbon dioxide acidosis. Causes of respiratory acidosis include: (Asidosis Pernafasan terjadi apabila terlalu banyak karbon dioksida ( sifat Asid) didalam badan. Asidosis jenis ini biasanya disebabkan apabila tubuh tidak berkemampuan mengeluarkan karbon dioksida secukupnya dari badan semasa proses pernafasan. Nama lain Asidosis pernafasan juga dikenalai sebagai hypercapnic asidosis dan Asidosis Karbon dioksida. Sebab sebab terjadi Asidosis pernafasan adalah;) Chest deformities, such as kyphosis Chest injuries Chest muscle weakness Chronic lung disease Overuse of sedative drugs (Rangka Dada yang tidak normal seperti Kyphosis, Kecederaan di Dada, Otot Dada yang lemah, Mengalami penyakit paru paru kronik dan penggunaan dadah sedatif berlebihan) Metabolic acidosis develops when too much acid is produced or the kidneys cannot remove enough acid from the body. There are several types of metabolic acidosis: (Asidosis metabolik terjadi apabila Buah pinggang gagal berfungsi mengeluarkan bahan bahan Asid dari tubuh. beberapa jenis Asidosis Metabolik dikenali sebagai) Diabetic acidosis (also called diabetic ketoacidosis and DKA) develops when substances called ketone bodies (which are acidic) build up during uncontrolled diabetes. Hyperchloremic acidosis is caused by the loss of too much sodium bicarbonate from the body, which can happen with severe diarrhea. (Asidosis Diabetes juga dikenali sebagai Diabetes Ketoasidosis dan DKA membentuk setelah bahan yang dikenali sebagai badan Keton terjadi semasa kejadian paras Diabetes yang tidak terkawal seperti Hyper glycemia atau Hypoglycemia. Heperchloremic asidosis adalah keadaan dimana terlalu banyak kehilangan Sodiu,m Bikarbonat daru tubuh, ini terjadi apabila pesakit mengalami cirit birit yang teruk.) Lactic acidosis is a buildup of lactic acid. This can be caused by: Alcohol Cancer Exercising vigorously for a very long time Liver failure Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) Medications such as salicylates MELAS (a rare genetic disorder that affects energy production) Prolonged lack of oxygen from shock, heart failure, or severe anemia Seizures Other causes of metabolic acidosis include: (Laktik Asidosis terjadi apabilaAsid laktik mengumpul didalam tubuh disebabkan oleh; Pengambilan ALkohol, Kanser, Bersenam dengan jangkamasa yang lama, Kegagalan fungsi hati, Kandungan Gula rendah atau Hypoglycemia, mengambil ubat Salicilat, Sindrom MELAS iatu masaalah genetik menyebabkan kegagalan mengeluarkan tenaga, Keadaan dimana kekurangan oksijen yang berpanjangan seperti sawan.) Kidney disease (distal renal tubular acidosis and proximal renal tubular acidosis) Poisoning by aspirin, ethylene glycol (found in antifreeze), or methanol Severe dehydration (Lain lain sebab berlakunya Asidosis adalah, penyakit buah pinggang (Distal renal tubular acidosis dan proximal renal tubular acidosis, Keracunaan Aspirin, keracunan ethylene glycol (terdapat dalam anti penyejuk) atau methanol dan dihidrasi yang terlampau.) ACIDOSIS is not in itself a specific disease; it is a general condition of the blood and thus the root of many different diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure, arthritis, cancer, tumors and many more. Many people today have this blood condition without knowing it. ALKALOSIS is not as common as acidosis, but also indicates an unbalanced condition of the blood. (Asidosis adalah bukannya sejenis penyakit tetapi ianya adalah kondisi darah yang menjadi punca utama pelbagai penyakit degeneratif iatu penyakit berpunca dari pola kehidupan kita seperti Kencing manis, Darah Tinggi, Sakit Sendi, Kanser,Ketumbuhan dan macam macam lagi penyakit degenaratif. kebanyak orang tidak menyedari keadaan ketidakseimbangan darah dan cecair tubuh ini. Manakala Alkalosis pula tidak begitu sering berlaku seperti keadaan Asidosis tetapi kedua dua nya adalah keadaan ketidakseimbangan cecair darah tubuh kita.) All natural foods contain both acid and alkaline forming elements. In some, acid forming elements dominate, in others alkaline forming elements dominate. According to modern biochemistry, it is not the organic matter of foods which leave acid or alkaline residues in the body. The inorganic matter (sulphur, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, magnesium and calcium) determines the acidity or alkalinity of the body fluids. Food comparatively rich in acid forming elements are acid forming foods, those comparatively rich in alkaline forming elements are alkaline forming foods.(Semua bahan maknan semulajadi kita mengandungi kedua elemen bahan asid dan alkali. Disesetangahnya, bahan membentuk Asid melebihi dari bahan pengelaur Alkali. Menurut Biokimia moden, ianya bukanlah bahan makanan bersifat asid atau alkali yang menyebabkan keadaan Asidosis atau Alkalosis tetapi bahan inorganik (Sulphur, phosporus, potassium, sodium, magnesium dan kalsium) menentukan keadaan cecair itu bersifat asid atau alkali. Bahan makanan yang mengandungi bahan berasid atau makanan tersebut bersifat asid adalah punca utama keadaan cecair tubuh menjadi asidosis atau sebaliknya - Oleh sebab itulah Rasullullah sering memakan makanan yang seimbanga sifatnya contohnya apabila Rasulullah saw memakan makanan bersifat panas ia akan memakan makan bersifat sejuk pula, sekiranya makanan itu berasid Rasulullah akan memakan makanan bersifat ALkali dan sekiranya salah satunya tiada Rasullullah saw akan hanya memakannya sedikit cukup untuk mengalas perut. Allah juga memberi petunjuk didalam Surah Yassin mengenai kehidupan yang diciptakan oleh Allah berpasang pasangan, walhal Al Quraan mempunyai pengantin perempuannya - MasyaAllah) Acidic condition inhibits nerve action, alkalinity stimulates nerve action. One who has a balanced condition can think and act (decide) well. A balanced food plan is a great help in maintaining the pH balance of the blood; however it does not reveal results in a day or two. It takes a longer time to show the effect. Cold showers make the blood alkaline, while hot showers make the blood acid. If the blood develops a more acidic condition, then our body inevitably deposits these excess acidic substances in some area of the body such so that the blood will be able to maintain an alkaline condition. As this tendency continues, such areas increase in acidity and some cells die; then these dead cells themselves turn into acids. However, some other cells may adapt in that environment. In other words, instead of dying as normal cells do in a acid environment, some cells survive by becoming abnormal cells. These abnormal cells are called malignant cells. Malignant cells do not correspond with brain function nor with our own DNA memory code. Therefore, malignant cells grow indefinitely and without order.(Keadaan ber Asid menyebabkan saraf kurang berfungsi manakala keadaan Alkali menstimulasi saraf berfungsi sepenuhnya. Seseorang yang mempunya keseimbangan boleh bertindak dengan cergas, berfikir dengan waras dan berkelakuan baik dan lemah lembut. Makananan yang seimbang boleh membantu sepenuhnya menyeimbangkan PH darah, walaupun kadangkala keseimbangan mengambil masa sedikit. Mandian dengan air sejuk membuatkan darah menjadi alkali manakala mandian air panas meneyebabkan darah menjadi asid, apabila darah menjadi asid, bahan asid yang berlebihan akan disimpan dibahagian tubuh tertentu bagi tujuan penyeimbangan tubuh secara automatik. Lama kelamaan bahagian ini akan menyebabkan sel nya mati kerana keadaan asid yang berterusan. Sel sel yang mati ini juga akan bertukar menjadi bahan unsur punca asid. Walaupun sebahagian sel boleh hidup bertahan lama didalam keadaan berasid tetapi menjadi tidak normal. Sel sel abnormal inilah dipanggil Sel Malignant. Sel sel ini tidak berfungsi dan bertindakbalas terhadap arahan Otak atau Hormon atau Kod Memori Asid DNA sel tersebut. Inilah keadaan dimana Sel abnormal bertumbuh dan membesar tanpa kawalan.Rasullullah saw menganjurkan kita mandi sebelum masuk waktu Solat Subuh) This is Cancer, and cancer develops in the following stages: 1. Ingestion of many acid forming foods, fatty foods, refined foods, carcinogenic substances such as nitrates, and chemically treated foods in general. X-ray scans contribute even at this stage. 2. Increased constipation 3. Increase of acidity in the blood. This causes an increase of white cells and a decrease of red cells, which is the beginning of leukemia. 4. Increase of acidity in the extra cellular fluids. 5. Increase of acidity into the intra cellular fluids. 6. Birth of malignant cells. This is the stage of cancer called initiation. 7. The further consumption of many acid foods. Receiving high levels of radiation, chemical and drug treatment. This stage is called cancer promotion. (Inilah keadaan kanser peringkat permulaan pembentukan kanser didalam beberapa peringkat; 1. Tabiat memakan makanan punca bahan asid, maknaan berlemak, makanan diproses dan makanan mengandungi karsinogen seperti nitrat dan makanan yang diproses secara kimia secara umumnya. Sinar- X adalah punca utama diperingkat ini. 2. Mengalami sembelit. 3.Pertambahan bahan asid dalam darah menyebabkan pengurangan sel darah putih dan mnurunkan sel darah merah, inilah punca utama penyakit Leukimia. 4. Pertambahan bahan asid didalam cecair diantara sel. 5. Pertambahan bahan asid didalam cecair didalam sel. 6. Keadaan ini melahirkan sel malignan. Inilah peringkat pertama kanser yang dipanggil inisiasi. 7. Sekiranya pola kehidupa tidak berubah, semakin memakan makanan berasid, menerima radiasi, bahan kimia (seperti ubat darah Tinggi, ubat Kencing manis) dan pengambilan dadah (Panadol. Paracetamol) dipanggil peringkat membantu pertumbuhan kanser.) There are two types of acid and alkaline foods. 1. One is acid or alkaline foods, which means how much acid or alkaline the foods contain. 2. The other is acid or alkaline forming foods, which means the acid or alkaline forming ability of foods to affect the body or to say differently, the pH condition foods cause in the body after being digested. This is the one that will be the focus in changing the body's pH. A neutral pH is considered 7, so a pH above 7 is alkaline and a pH below 7 is acid. The pH of blood is 7.4. This means that it is slightly alkaline. This alkalinity has to be kept almost constant; even minor variations are dangerous. If the blood lowers to pH 6.95 (barely over the line of the acid side), a coma and death result. And if the concentration in the blood changes from 7.4 to 7.7, tetanic convulsions occur. Although only a blood test can reveal the blood pH, it is possible to monitor the pH of the body with a simple home test kit of litmus or nitrozine paper. Testing a saliva and urine daily average for three days should reveal a pH of between 6.8 and 7.1. Some variation will occur depending on recent type of food and drink intake. Different body pH values are:stomach juice = 1.5, urine=7.0, saliva=7.1, and blood=7.4. (Ada 2 jenis makanan berasid and beralkali; 1. Makanan berasid dan makanan beralkali adalah menunjukkan betapa banyak kandungan asid atau alkali didlam makanan tersebut. 2. Makanan yang mengandungi bahan yang menggalakkan pembentukan bahan berasid atau beralkali iatu bahan makann selepas diproses boleh menjadi bahan berasid atau bahan beralkali. Bahan makanan inilah menjadi fokus utama kita kerana menjadi punca utama menjadikan tubuh badan kita asidosis atau alkalosis. Bermakna apabila badan kita mempunyai PH 7.4 ianya adalah sedikit atas dari paras nutral menjadi alkali dan apabila badan menjadi PH 6.95 walaupun ianya hanya turun sedikit dari paras nutral ia tetap berasid, keadaan ini boleh menyebabkan kematian atau keadaan koma, manakala Keadaan Alkali badan seharusnya sentiasa dijaga, jika berlebihan tubuh menjadi kancing gigi atau sawan (tetanic convulsion). Untuk menentukan keadaan ini ujian darah dapat membantu tetapi secara ringkas keadda asid atau alkali badan boleh ditentukan dengan mengguna kertas Litmus atau kertas Nitrozine dengan menguji air liur atau air kencing setiap hari. Untuk pedoman Darah - PH7.4, Enzim usus=PH1.5, Air kencing PH7.0, Air liur PH7.1) Acid-Alkaline Forming Foods Foods may be classified in relation to the metabolic process as acid alkaline. Alkali's are soluble salts and acids are corrosive agents which have trouble combining with other things. A balanced diet contains 35% acid forming foods and 65% alkaline. Highly Alkaline Beans String, Banana speckled, Dandelion greens, Dates, Figs, Prune, Raisins, Swiss Chard. High Alkaline Almonds, Avocado, Banana-Yellow, Bean Fresh, Beet, Blackberries, Carrot, Chives, Cranberries, Endive, Grapes Sour, Kale, Peach dried, Persimmon, Pomegranate, Plum, Raspberries, Spinach.

Acid FatsButter, Cream, Margarine, Lard (Although acidic, due to the synergism of digestion kombucha becomes an alkaline forming food). Acid/Alkaline (pH) are the two characteristic conditions of blood and cell solution. Any solution is either more acid or more alkaline. If Acidic Characteristics dominate, the solution is acid. However there is no absolute acid or alkaline. An Acid solution always containssome alkaline factors, and a alkaline solution always containssome acid factors. Neutrality is an ideal condition in which the amour of acid and alkalinity is equal. It is an idealstate, and not realistic. In reality, what we eat or drink is always more acid or alkaline.

Back Pain - Slip Disc (Sakit Tulang Belakang - Slip disk)

Back pain can be caused by many different things. Only about 1 in 25 people with pain in their lower back have a slipped disc. If you have a slipped disc, the pain is caused by the damaged disc pressing on a nerve. The main symptoms of a slipped disc are back pain and sciatica. Sciatica is a pain that spreads down through your buttock and your leg. (Sakit Tulang Belakang disebabkan oleh banyak faktor. Hanya 1 orang diantara 25 orang yang menanggung kesakitan bahagian abdomen bawah disebabkan oleh Slip Disk. Slip Disk adalah keadaan dimana kesakaitan akibat saraf yang tersepit dan tertekan. Tanda utama slip disk adalah kesakitan bahagian tulang belakang dan Sciatika. Sciatika adalah kesakitan yang menyeluruh kebahagian bawah abdomen melalui punggung dan bahagian kaki) Back pain The pain from a slipped disc can start in different ways. You might feel an ache in your lower back after you do something that you're not used to, even something like raking autumn leaves. Some hours later, the pain gets so bad that you can't move about easily. Or you may get severe pain all of a sudden, without warning. Some people say it can feel like being stabbed with a knife. Serious pain can stop you carrying out your normal activities. It's worth seeing your GP about it. To find out whether you have a slipped disc, your GP will need to find out if doing different kinds of movements hurts you. (Sakit Bahagian Tulang Belakang - Kesakitan akibat Slip Disk bermula dari pelbagai cara. Anda akan merasa sakit dibahagian bawah tulang belakang selepas aktibiti yang jarang anda lakukan, seperti menyapu. Selepas beberapa jam kemudian anda mengalami kesakitan yang amat sangat sehingga anda tidak dapat bergerak dengan selesa. Kadangkala anda mendapat kesakitan secara tiba tiba seolah olah ditikam dari arah belakang dengan pisau. Kesakitan ini boleh menghalang aktibiti biasa anda.Di tahap ini berjumpalah Doktor anda untuk pemeriksaan sekiranya pergerakan amat terbatas akibat kesakitan ini.) Sciatica If you have a slipped disc, you'll almost always get pain in your buttocks, thighs, legs, and feet. Usually the pain is only on one side. You may also get numbness, weakness, or tingling in the same area. These symptoms mean the damaged disc is pressing on a sciatic nerve. These nerves travel from the base of your back through your buttocks and down the back of each leg to your feet. Sciatica can come on at the same time as the back pain or it may come on later. The pain may move from your lower back to your leg. With sciatica you can find it uncomfortable to sit down, stand up, or bend over. You will also find it painful to lift the affected leg while you're lying down. This is one of the tests doctors use to diagnose sciatica. You can often get relief by getting into certain comfortable positions, such as lying down. Although 9 in 10 people with sciatica do have a slipped disc, having sciatica doesn't prove that you have a damaged disc. About 1 in 10 people with sciatica get it because of other problems. (Sciatika - Sekiranya anda mengalami Slip Disc anda juga akan merasa kesakitan dibahagian punggung, peha dan kaki serta bahagian telapak kaki dan kesakitan itu hanya berlaku disebelah badan sahaja.Tanda tanda lain adalah kekebasan, kelemahan atau terasa seperti mencucuk dikawasan tersebut. Tanda tanda ini menunjukkan bahawa saraf tulang belakang anda tersepit akibat dari disc yang rosak. Saraf ini menjalar dari tulang belakang melalui punggung terus kebawah abhagian peha dan kaki. Sciatika boleh terjadi bersama sama dengan kesakitan tulang belakang ataupun berlaku pada masa yang berbeza. Kesakitan biasanya terjadi secara menjalar atau keseluruhannya dari tulang belakang sehingga peha dan kaki. Sciatika menyebabkan anda tidak selesa untuk duduk, berdiri atau membongkok. Anda juga akan terasa kesakitan apabila cuba mengangkat kaki yang sakit semasa didalam keadaan baring. Ini adalah salah satu cara ujian yang lakukan. Anda akan berasa selesa dengan beberapa posisi seperti berbaring lurus dilantai rata. Pada kebiasaanya hanya 9 orang dari 10 orang yang mengalami sciatika juga mempunyai tanda slip disk, tetapi pesakit yang mengalami sciatika tidak semestinya mempunyai tanda tanda kerosakan disk. Hanya 1 orang dari 10 orang yang didapati mengalami sciatika juga mengalami Slip Disk disebabakan oleh faktor faktor lain.) Warning signs of something more serious If you have back pain and you also lose control of your bowels or bladder, or if your arms or legs feel numb or weak, you need to get medical help at once. These symptoms can mean one of two things. Your slipped disc could be pressing on the spinal cord (doctors call this spinal cord compression). Your slipped disc could be pressing on the nerves that run down from the bottom of the spinal cord. Doctors call these nerves the cauda equina. If these nerves are being damaged, it is called cauda equina syndrome. We don't talk about treating spinal cord compression or cauda equina syndrome here. But they are medical emergencies. If you have these symptoms, you may need urgent surgery to relieve the pressure on the affected nerves. (Amaran sesuatu yang Lebih Serius - Sekiranya kesakitan bahagian belakang anda menyebabkan anda tidak dapat mengawal usus besar dan pundi kencing anda atau keseluruhan tangan atau kaki berasa kebas, lemah.... anda perlulah berjumpa dengan Doktor anda dengan segera, Ini sebab tanda tanda diatas boleh terjadi akibat 2 perkara, Slip Disk anda telah pun menyebabkan saraf tersepit atau didalam takrifan Doktor sebagai Spinal Cord Compression. Atau Slip disk anda menyebabkan saraf yang melalui peha dan kai tersepit ini dikenali sebagai Cauda Equina Sindrom. Sekiranya anda mempunyai tanda ini teruslah ke Hospitak untuk mendapatkan rawatan kecemasan.) Rawatan 1. Kiropraktik 2. Acupunture Definitions of Back pain Kidney Chi Deficiency According to Traditional Chinese Medicine theory, the Kidney and Bladder acupuncture meridians govern the back. When there is a deficiency in Kidney Yin or Kidney Yang this may have a negative effect on the acupuncture channels on the posterior of the body resulting in weakness, stiffness and/or pain in the back. _Wb9jg/USwJ5eY28pI/AAAAAAAAFoU/azcQqLAGV5M/s1600/kidney+meridian.gif" imageanchor="1" > Liver Chi Stagnation The body's Chi (Vital Energy) must flow freely for abundant health. In TCM, the Liver organ governs the free flow of Chi in all areas of the body including the upper and lower back. Any impediment to the free flow of energy in the back will result in moderate pain and stiffness. As the Liver organ in TCM is closely associated with emotions such as stress, frustration and anger – we would often observe case histories where back pain is triggered or exacerbated by emotional triggers such as premenstrual syndrome. Blood Stagnation in the Lower Back As a severe form of Chi stagnation (above), blood stagnation or blood stasis in the lower back can result in severe stabbing pain on movement or rest. This is a result of long term Chi stagnation which eventually causes the flow of blood in the affected area to effectively become stuck. In TCM theory, the Chi (especially Liver Chi) moves blood in the acupuncture channels – any impediment to the free flow of Chi results in internal "friction" which almost often transforms into severe pain and stiffness. Blood stagnation in the lower back may form as a result of physical issues such as injury due to a fall, impact, exposure to cold wind or overwork, and emotional issues such as long term stress. Invasion of Wind Cold According to acupuncture theory, the Kidneys are susceptible to invasion of wind cold or damp cold. This occurs when the lower back is frequently exposed to cold or damp weather resulting in depletion of the Kidney Yang energies and as cold obstructs movement the eventual stagnation of Chi in the affected area. Invasion of cold may be accompanied by symptoms such as feeling of cold, tightness in the lower back, frequent urination and low energy. 3. Herbs
