			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://healthheap.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/obesity_surgery1.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-398" title="obesity" src="http://healthheap.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/obesity_surgery1.jpg" alt="" width="258" height="345" /></a><a href="http://www.healthheap.com/tag/obesity" target="_self">Obesity</a> is one of the major health issues rising, day by day. Number of obese persons is rapidly increasing every year. If obesity will not be treated, it can cause other medical health problems for example hypertension, <a href="http://www.healthheap.com/tag/diabetes" target="_self">type 2 diabetes</a>, <a href="http://www.healthheap.com/tag/cardiovascular-disease" target="_self">heart diseases</a> etc. So you must take care of your health and don’t let obesity to spoil your life.</p>
<p>“It’s never too late,” in this modern era you can find lot of information to loss weight online. If you really know the value of your health, you have to pay much heed to keep yourself fit, healthy and smart.</p>
<p>Increasingly people are taking advantages of herbal remedies and <a href="http://www.bestdietpills-1.com/list_of_best_diet_pills.html" target="_blank">diet pills that work</a> for them regarding weight loss.</p>
<p>Many people have already switched to herbal medicines from prescribes remedies since these medications are expressing some side effects, that is why people are getting away from such remedies which put a long lasting effect on their health.</p>
<p><span id="more-397"></span><strong>Mechanism</strong></p>
<p>If we go through <a href="http://www.bestdietpills-1.com/diet_pill_reviews.html" target="_blank">diet pill reviews</a>, anti-obesity drugs work through one or more of the following mechanisms:</p>
<ul>
<li>Suppression of the appetite: Some herbal remedies are used to suppress the appetite. These contain such substances which send impulses to brain that you are full whether you are not. These substances block the cannabinoid receptors and make such feeling that you have taken enough of your meal.</li>
<li>Some anti-obesity drugs increase the metabolic rate. In this way body start to burn its own stored fat.</li>
<li>Some medicines prevent fat breakdown and thus prevents absorption of fat in the gut. The OTC fiber supplement usually used for this purpose to minimizing calorie absorption. This type of drug inhibits fat digestion up to 30 % and does not harm to hypertensive patients as it has no effect on <a href="http://www.healthheap.com/tag/brain" target="_self">brain</a> or nervous system. This product has better safety and tolerance for cardiac patients along with low fat diet for better results.</li>
<li>Anorectics (also called anorexigenics) are mainly suppressing the appetite, but most of the drugs in this class also act as stimulants.</li>
</ul>
<p>In order to get better results, you have to make intervention in the process of weight loss.  Behavior intervention is the most important along with lifestyle change and eating and exercise habits. You have to stick to a balanced healthy diet. Eat healthy foods with proper <a href="http://www.healthheap.com/tag/nutrients">nutrients</a> as per requirement of the body. There are number of physical exercises that you can do such as walking, dancing, running, jogging, swimming and so on. While choosing weight loss program, select the one that suits you and associate it with healthy eating and physical work out.</p>

In fact, smoking, in women can cause heart attack fourteen years earlier than women who don&#8217;t smoke.</p>
<p>For men, the gap is not as big as in women. Male smokers have risk of heart attacks about six years earlier than non-smoker men.</p>
<p>&#8220;This is not a minor difference,&#8221; said Dr. Silvia Priori. &#8220;Women need to realize they are losing much more than men when they smoke,&#8221; she said.</p>
<p><span id="more-42"></span>Dr. Morten Grundtvig and colleagues from Norway based their study on data from 1,784 patients admitted with first heart attack at a hospital in Lillehammer.</p>
<p>Researchers found that, the average age is 72 in non-smoker men when they got first heart attack and 64 if they smoke. On the other hand women had first heart attack at an average age of 81 if they didn&#8217;t smoke, and at age 66 if they did.</p>
<p>After adjusting other risk factors for heart attack such as hypertension, high cholesterol and diabetes, researchers conclude that the difference for women was about 14 years and for men, about 6 years.</p>
<p>Grundtvig said that smoking enhance the chances of early menopause, leaving them least protected against heart diseases. With growing rates of smoking in women, compared with declining rates in men, Grundtvig said that doctors expect to see increased heart attacks in women.</p>
<p>&#8220;Smoking might erase the natural advantage that women have,&#8221; said Dr. Robert Harrington, a professor of American College of Cardiology.</p>
<p>&#8220;The difference in how smoking affects women and men is deep,&#8221; Harrington said. &#8220;Unless women don&#8217;t smoke or quit, they risk ending up with the same dreadful diseases as men, only at a much earlier age.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://healthheap.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/shot1.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-157" title="Pre-pregnancy diabetes" src="http://healthheap.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/shot1.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a>ATLANTA &#8211; Pregnant diabetic women have three to four times more probability of delivering a child with birth defects than non-diabetic women, according to new government research.</p>
<p>The study is the largest of its own type, and gives the most latest and detailed information to date on birth defects that occur to infants of diabetic mothers, including heart defects, omitted kidneys and spine disfigurement.</p>
<p>Nearly 40 types of birth defects enlisted during study, which found to be considerably more common in the infants of diabetic mothers than normal or who were diagnosed with diabetes after conceiving.</p>
<p><span id="more-11"></span>The study&#8217;s list of diabetes-associated birth defects is astounding. It is much longer than was previously understood, said Janis Biermann, senior vice president for education and health promotion at the March of Dimes.</p>
<p>&#8220;It adds more information about the specific types of birth defects associated with pre-gestational diabetes and gestational diabetes,&#8221; he added.</p>
<p>Birth defects affect one out of 33 babies born in the U.S, and cause around one in five infant deaths. Causes of most birth defects are not known but some risk factors may involve including obesity, alcohol, smoking, infections, gestational and pre-gestational diabetes.</p>
<p>From decades, doctors know about the threat diabetes poses to pregnancies. Previous research has focused on threats to the infant by the excessive amounts of glucose (sugar) circulating in the womb of a diabetic mother. Studies upon rats and mice have clearly shown that high sugar level harms fetal tissue development, said Dr. E. Albert Reece, a study co-author and dean of the University of Maryland school of Medicine, who directs birth defects research there.</p>
<p>The study concentrated on the 13,000 births involving a major birth defect, in comparison with nearly 5,000 arbitrarily selected healthy births from the same locations.</p>
<p>Mothers were asked if they had been diagnosed with diabetes before or during their pregnancy. The researchers said those who were diagnosed during pregnancy either had pregnancy-induced condition called gestational diabetes or had undiagnosed pre-pregnancy diabetes.</p>
<p>The study found that in 93% of birth defect diabetes was not involved. About 2 percent of the infants with single birth defects were born to mothers who had pre-pregnancy diabetes. About 5 percent of the children with more than one defect were born to mothers with same condition. The percentage of healthy births was much lower in those mothers who were diabetic before pregnancy.</p>
<p>&#8220;Diabetes is not discriminating&#8221; in which birth defects it&#8217;s linked to, said Dr. Adolfo Correa, a CDC epidemiologist who was the study&#8217;s lead author.</p>
