In order Radiation Therapy Success, Brain Cancer Patient Asked to Fasting


Radiation therapy is a standard treatment procedure for patients with cancer of any kind. But according to the condition of each patient, sometimes this therapy does not always produce the desired results.

A study from the United States also claimed to find ways to increase the effectiveness of radiation therapy for cancer patients is by fasting.

The team of researchers from the University of Southern California successfully concluded this after conducting a series of tests on rats suffering from an aggressive brain tumor.

According to researchers, fasting can increase the effectiveness of radiation therapy in mice with cancer, including extending life expectancy.

"Fasting for some time (short-term) may protect healthy cells as cancer cells are susceptible due to toxic effects from chemotherapy," explained researcher Valter Longo, a professor of gerontology and biological sciences and director of the Longevity Institute, USC Davis School of Gerontology.

Studies that have been featured in the journal PLoS One is the first to show that fasting seems to have an additional effect similar to radiation therapy in treating brain tumors are most often diagnosed glioma.

Moreover, for patients with gliomas is on average only live less than two years.

"When we did a study of chemotherapy, we wanted to see how to protect patients against the toxic effects of therapy. Study of radiation But with this comes the question of what conditions would make the cancer vulnerable to radiation? Then how do we optimize the conditions so that people with cancer need not must often undergo therapy at the hospital? " Longo said as reported by Medindia on Wednesday (12/09/2012).

Longo and his colleagues are also studying the effectiveness of the combination of fasting with a combination of radiation therapy and chemotherapy drug Temozolomide fast with the latter used as a standard treatment for brain tumors in adults after undergoing surgical removal of the tumor.

Researchers found that mice that were 'forced' to fast for no more than 48 hours each time after being irradiated proven to increase the effectiveness of radiation and chemotherapy to treat glioma experienced.

In spite of aggressive brain tumor growth observed in this study, rats were fasted once received radiation therapy in fact twice as likely to survive at the end of the trial than if only given radiation therapy alone or 'forced' fasting alone.

"The results suggest fasting beneficial for glioma patients when combined with standard treatment is chemotherapy and radiotherapy," added Longo.

Nevertheless, Longo cautioned patients to consult first with the handle oncologist before undergoing fasting.

"If you want to balance the risk then you should do it right. But if you seem to run out of ways to treat your tumor, short-term fasting may provide additional opportunities for some patients," he concluded.

Additives Substances in Food to Avoid During Pregnancy

Pregnancy
An expectant mother should be more careful to maintain good health during pregnancy, because the development of the child has been determined since the pregnancy. Pregnant women should also be picky about food because foods that contain added chemicals or certain additives can be bad for pregnancy and fetal conditions.

1. Artificial sweeteners

Several types of artificial sweeteners have recently also found in chewing gum, soft drinks, snacks and even healthy foods like yogurt though. The body can not recognize the substance contained in the artificial sweetener, so that when the body's metabolic processes to process these foreign substances will lead to various health problems.

2. Monosodium glutamate (MSG)

MSG is a flavor enhancer commonly used in dishes such as soups, snacks like chips and so forth. This additive is classified as an excitotoxin, which causes brain cells to become hyperactive in its activities to communicate with other cells.

MSG has been shown to increase the risk of cancer, heart disease, obesity, and behavioral disorders are dangerous if consumed by people who are pregnant.

Unfortunately, to recognize that it contains MSG in food packaging is quite difficult because it is disguised in many names. The best way to avoid MSG is to avoid fast food, processed food and food packaging that has a savory taste too strong.

3. Nitrate

Nitrate is often used additives in meat, hot dogs, and the like. When cooked meats containing nitrates, will release a carcinogenic compound that has been known to be associated with various cancers.

Research has also shown that consumption of these chemicals during pregnancy increases the risk of higher brain tumor in children. Nitrate was originally used to preserve meat and prevent botulism.

But the meat producers now use it to give a little reddish color to attract buying customers. Be careful in shopping for meat by shopping at the local market may be safer.

4. Pesticide

Fruits and vegetables that are sold commercially, is generally treated with pesticides and herbicides by farmers in order to get the results that many and great. However, these chemicals can have harmful effects on the fetus, especially during the development phase.

The best way to avoid this is to eat fruits and organic vegetables, use a carbon filter water to remove the additive from drinking water, and prefer not to use insecticides to rid the house of insects.

As reported Xinhua page on Tuesday (3/7), a type of protein that are overactive in cases of oral cancer and encourage the development of the tumor was used as a targeted treatment based on a study by researchers. According to them, the higher the level of permanent FRMD4A active protein on cancer, the more likely the disease is spread and return.

As the report has been published in Cancer Research Journal, by resisting the development of these proteins, then automatically the development of oral cancer can be reduced. "Really interesting study. We already have drugs that can potentially be used to target the protein or to compensate for the effect," said Stephen Goldie.

That said by researchers, the drugs can be used as a new offer to the patients, if surgery and chemotherapy did not work. "Or, it can also be used simultaneously," said Goldie.

However, these findings can not be mass produced. Researchers are still going to test with the discovery. Because new development could still occur. "Successful treatment of oral cancer at this time could be different with treatment success with these methods in the future," said the researchers.

Student with Myopia in Asia Rises

Myopia
More than 90 percent of children who left school in the cities of Asia had myopia or myopic eyes, according to one study. The researchers said the sharp increase in this problem because too many school students learn in school and at home so that the lack of sunlight outside.

The scientists said in the journal The Lancet, that one in five students can suffer eye damage and even blindness. They say the free time, the students also spend more time playing computer games and watching television at home.

Researchers say students should spend at least three hours a day to stimulate the production of dopamine, a chemical that prevents children having myopia.

According to Professor Ian Morgan, of the Australian National University who led the study, the average number of myopia in East Asia before about 20-30 per cent. "What we have done in the study of writing is all the evidence suggests that something extraordinary happened in East Asia in the last two generations," said Morgan told the BBC.

Experts say eye disorder where vision is impaired myopia over a distance of two meters. Based on research, the causes of these eye disorders due to various factors, due to the demands of education and lack of outside light.

The demands of education is also increasingly suppress the use of the eye, but the light may help maintain eye, said Morgan. "Exit the house between two to three hours, even though the sun does not shine, it is still important," he added.

So far, the researchers believe there is a genetic problem associated with this eye disorder. It was previously thought, the population of China, Japan, Korea and other countries prone to myopic eyes. However, this study suggests something else. In Singapore, with a large community of Chinese, Malay and Indian, myopia rate is also increasing rapidly.

Avoid foods that make you bloated and dizzy, like red meat, sugar, flour, and some dairy products.

3. Oxidation

Every cell in the body requires oxygen, but other reactive molecules can also make the process of merging. When that happens, unstable atoms or free radicals would appear that steal electrons from other atoms.

This process can lead to prolonged oxidative stress and cell damage and even the structure of DNA. The body has evolved in a variety of ways to manage oxidative stress. However, when we are exposed to high levels of toxins from the outside, such as alcohol, stress, UV, and chemicals in food and cleaning products will add to the burden that must be processed. Therefore, it has the potential to increase the amount of free radicals.

Eat vegetables and fruits that contain high levels of antioxidants. Intake of foods that provide the electrons free radicals so they do not need to steal from the other cells in your body.

Flushing Toilet
Modern toilet design is generally shaped toilet seat with cover. When using it, most people just close it when finished. In fact. number of bacteria-prone distributed if the cover is not closed when the toilet flush dirt.

Professor Mark Wilcox, Clinical Director of Microbiology at Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, said, opening the cover allows some bacteria to spread into the air and settled on the surface nearby. This increases the risk of infectious diarrhea germs to others.

"It is quite clear that the cover is there for a reason," said Professor Wilcox to Country Mail Online, Tuesday (3/1).

Professor Wilcox and colleagues from Leeds University conducted a study to see how to use the toilet lid could affect the spread of disease, particularly in hospitals. They used a sterilized toilet cubicle and created a 'diarrhea effect' in the bowl using stool samples that have been infected from hospital superbugs C. difficile. The bacteria is one of the bacteria in human feces that can trigger diarrhea.

They found C diff carried to a height of 10 inches or 25 centimeters when the toilet seat is open and still be detected in the air until 90 minutes later.

When the lid is closed, no C. difficile were found on any surface, but when it opens the bacteria found in the water tank, on the right side and the left side of the toilet seat and on the floor.

"We then give vegetable dye in the bowl water, lift, and put a plastic cap on top of the toilet seat. Once we flush the toilet, we sprayed it in large quantities. By placing the film on the filter paper, and we found that the toilet can deploy up to 50 points ( bacteria) per flush, "said Professor Wilcox.

The professor said that let the lid open will be a danger to health. From their findings suggest that although the patient may at least have a special toilet.

He added that their research also has wider implications. "It would be prudent to shut it down after flushing." Our advice, put the lid if it exists, and wash your hands afterwards. "
