When we talk about weight loss, we can have weight loss in many forms such as total body mass, loss of fluid (water), in the form of muscles. The weight loss seen in majority is mostly found in extreme overweight people. For example, being 20-30 kg more than age (whether in man or woman), the weight loss is mostly in the form of muscle and water loss. Now let's talk about fat loss which is very important. Fat loss is the reduction of extra fat deposited over muscles in fat loss.

In simple words, when you reduce the amount of carbohydrates in your diet, the carbohydrates (which are the fuel of your body that give you glucose), cause to very low, the body to start eating its stored fat (which is your extra fat). Then, your body loses fat. On the other hand, When your body starts taking below maintenance calories, you mean that you used to take 2000 calories to maintain 85 kg weight and now you will take less calories than 1700,1800 or 1900 calories, then your body will lose weight.

Now let's talk about what is better weight loss or fat loss. The fat percentage should be 15 to 20% in a mail body and 17 to 25% in a female. If there is more fat in your body, then pay attention to the fat loss and bring it normal. Because if it is more than this, then you may have diabetes, heart attack and high blood pressure. If you bring it down, then the cells that are in the body are made from fat, that body will not get. Also, your brain is made up of 75% fat and water, so your body functioning and brain functioning will be greatly affected. If your fat percentage is between 15-20, then you do not need to think about fat loss. 

Weight loss is measured by ideal number. This ideal number depends on your age and your height. If you are overweight by 10-20%, then you can control it by exercising or dieting. It does not matter if you do not want to reduce it, but make sure that it does not go more than 10-20%. If it goes beyond 20% then you are very much at risk of heart attack and diabetes. Even the bodybuilder, who has an ideal weight of more than 20%, has a lot of problems in his body in the future.

Psoriasis: Symptoms, Causes, Diagnosis, Prevention & Treatment

World Psoriasis Day: If you are also troubled by psoriasis, know it's symptoms! 

[A complete guide of psoriasis]





World Psoriasis Day is observed on 29 October worldwide. This time the global theme has given a lot of emphasis on its symptoms. Let us tell you that around 1250 million people are affected by this serious disease, 3% of the population worldwide. You will be surprised to know that it cannot be eradicated from the root. Know everything about the symptoms of psoriasis as well as the disease.


Today, skin disease is a common problem, one of these skin diseases is psoriasis. Psoriasis is a skin disorder in which skin rash is not an infectious disease. It is a recurrent disease that can get worse and worse over time. Psoriasis has been characterized by an autoimmune reaction. Disturbance of the immune system of the body is considered to be the reason. Our skin takes about 28 days to replace cells and to form new cells, but the skin of people suffering from psoriasis produces new cells in just 4 to 5 days. This causes the cells to freeze, this causes red, dry and itchy patches on the skin.


Symptoms of Psoriasis

Psoriasis is a recurring disease that affects your skin. It is very itchy on the skin and sometimes the skin can become inflamed if the condition gets worse. Sometimes you can also feel pain. As a result of this, you may also have to face small flaky spots on the skin, dry, torn skin from which blood can come out. Many times blisters start forming on your skin. The need for constant itching can be very annoying. Psoriasis also affects the joints and can also cause inflammation in the joints. Arthritis is a car in which there is swelling and pain in the joints.This disorder may have some mental effects.






Causes of Psoriasis

Some of the main reasons may be:

  1. Genetic Causes: Genetics is considered the most popular cause for psoriasis. It is believed that if a parent has psoriasis, then the child is likely to develop this disease up to 15%. If both parents have this disease, then the children can get this disease up to 60%.
  2.  Immunity System: The immune system experiences an abnormal reaction in which it begins to attack healthy skin cells. Our immune system is usually responsible for attacking viruses and bacteria, but due to many reasons, the body's immune system starts damaging its own body parts and causes many diseases. This produces new skin cells that are ready to form this scale patch.
  3.  Bacterial Infection: Sometimes viral or bacterial infection can also be a reason for psoriasis. Sometimes, psoriasis can occur at the place of injury or around it due to injury to the skin. Activation of genes in some environmental conditions may also be a reason behind psoriasis.
  4.  Stress and Food: In Ayurveda, it is believed that eating too much uneven food together (curd and fish) can cause dosha imbalance. Therefore, excessive consumption of garlic, oil-rich food, seafood or spicy food, junk food can also cause psoriasis. Stress and mental disorders can also play a major role in psoriasis.




Prevention of Psoriasis


You can reduce this skin disorder with some effective measures:

  1. Food to Eat: In this problem, you should use green leafy vegetables, legumes, pulses, fruits etc. These foods have anti-inflammatory properties and some foods are rich in fiber which help in getting the body out of dirt. You should avoid eating too much salty food. Do not consume rust food at all and eat easily digestible food. Very sour food is not suitable for you. Do not drink alcohol and smoke at all.
  2. Skin Care: Protect your skin especially. When there is a cut in the open part of your skin, it becomes a way for bacteria and virus to enter. Do not let your skin dry. To keep it healthy, do a moisturizer so that the skin remains moist all the time.
  3. Stress Management: Psoriasis is not caused by stress, but there is a risk of developing psoriasis disease when there is stress in psoriasis. For this you can also do yoga and exercise which will improve blood circulation in your body. It also helps in keeping the skin healthy.

Diagnosis of Psoriasis


Two tests are necessary to diagnose psoriasis:

  1. Physical examination: Most doctors diagnose psoriasis with a simple test. During this test, show your doctor the skin with psoriasis and also tell if any family member has got psoriasis.
  2. Biopsy: If the symptoms are not clear or doctors want to confirm their suspected diagnosis then they take a small sample of skin. This is known as a biopsy. The skin is sent to a laboratory where it is examined under a microscope. The test can diagnose your type of psoriasis. It also diagnoses other possible disorders or infections. Most biopsies are done at your doctor's office on the day of your appointment.




Psoriasis Treatment


There is no cure for psoriasis. The aim of treatment is to reduce inflammation, slow the growth of skin cells. There are three categories of psoriasis treatment:

  1. Topical treatment: Cream and ointment are applied directly to the skin to reduce mild to moderate psoriasis.
  2. Systemic medicines: People with severe psoriasis through the medium and those who have not been affected by other lazos are required to use oral or injected medicines.
  3. Light therapy: It uses ultraviolet natural light to treat psoriasis. Both UVA and UVB can be useful in reducing mild to moderate psoriasis symptoms. Most people with moderate to severe psoriasis benefit from a combination of treatments. More than one type of treatment may be used to reduce symptoms in this type of treatment. Some people use the same treatment throughout their life. If the effect of treatment used on their skin ends, then sometimes they need to change the treatment.

Hair Fall or Baldness

Hair fall: How to stop hair fall immediately? 

 Falling hair is not just a problem of the weather, but also indicates disease!








We are often troubled by the problem of hair loss due to the changing weather, increasing pollution and side effects of hair products, but sometimes our wrong eating and wrong habits also cause a lot of problems. In such a situation, if we can improve our habits in time, then within a few days we can easily get rid of problems related to hair as well as health.


If there are 70 to 100 hairs of a person everyday, then it is not a situation of panic. This is a normal process and so many hair falls every day. But if the hair is falling in large numbers and constantly, then you need the advice of experts.

 

There is no need to worry about 70 to 100 hair loss every day. But if you are losing much more than this, then not only do you need good hair care products but you should also do a checkup on the advice of a doctor. Because many times, fast falling hair is a sign of diseases growing in our body ...


Body swelling

The problem of swelling in the body at all times is known as Lupus in the medical world. Lupus is an autoimmune disease. In this, swelling remains in the body for a long time. Due to this inflammation, facial skin and hair roots are mainly affected. This is the reason why not only head hair but also eyebrows and eyelid hair start falling. At the same time, the hair of the beard and mustache also falls rapidly in men suffering from this disease.


Depression

Depression also causes rapid hair loss. Depression is a serious level of anxiety. A person is surrounded by anxiety and stress for a long time before he gets caught in depression. Due to this, there is a deficiency of Happy Hormones in his body. Digestive problems start occurring. When digestion is not done properly, the body does not get complete nutrition. It first affects hair and skin.



Blood pressure problem

People who have high blood pressure for a long time also have problems of falling hair rapidly. Whether women or male BP can cause hair fall in all. This is because in this case there is a high pressure of blood flow on the blood arteries. During this time there is a high amount of sodium in the blood, which cannot flow properly in the body. This condition causes hair and heart damage. This is the reason why hair loss is very common in BP patients.


Hair falls due to thyroid

Severe and prolonged thyroid problems may also be the reason for hair falling rapidly. While the right treatment of thyroid disorder is taken at the right time, hair loss can be prevented. It is also helpful in growing new hair. Keeping the doctor's advice in mind, taking medicines and healthy diets at the right time reduces hair loss.




Cancer is also the reason

Hair loss is a very common problem in cancer patients. Many times, fast falling hair is also an indication that the chances of developing a serious disease like cancer are increasing in the body. For example, some cancers such as Hodgkin lymphoma can cause hair loss. But rapid hair loss is mainly due to chemotherapy.


Eating disorder

Often young girls and boys succumb to an eating disorder such as anorexia and bulimia. This is due to their dieting in the desire of skinny body or using supplements. The majority of these youth are girls and women. Eating disorders are becoming a major cause of hair loss along with other health problems. Because of this, the necessary nutrients are not able to reach the cells of our body and hair starts falling fast.


Tips to get rid of falling hair:


1. Avoid tying tight hair

If you like to tie your hair tight, then change this habit quickly, because tightly tying hair is also a main reason for hair breakage and loss. This causes excessive strain on the hair. Due to which they start breaking and falling quickly.



2. Lack of iron and nutrients in the body

In today's era, people often prefer to eat junk food and fast food from outside the home. Due to which the body starts gradually lacking nutritious elements and its effect is seen in the form of our falling hair with health. In such a situation, if you want to avoid hair loss, then for that you should adopt a diet that contains nutritious elements.


3. combing wet hair or use hair dryer

If you also like to comb your wet hair or use hair dryer often, then change your habit, because hair follicles are weakened by doing this continuously. Due to which hair fall starts.




4. Washing hair with hot water

Often people like it, which is also very beneficial for health, but strong hot water causes great damage to hair. This causes the hair to become dry, and gradually fall.


 5. Tension

Stress has become another name in our life today. The effect of stress also damages our health as well as hair. Due to which hair fall starts. If you want to avoid falling hair, then adopt meditation, yoga and happy habits to reduce your stress.
