Health tips: What is ADHD and how to solve ADHD

1. Low progesterone

2. High insulin.

3. Adrenaline

Over-production of a single hormone, insulin is associated with many metabolic problems. Insulin is the number one hormone that creates fat, especially around the middle of the body. It is number one hormone that causes ‘Type 2 diabetes’ and in many physicians’ opinion, it is the hormone that participates ADD and ADHD. Low progesterone is almost always associated with the over – production of insulin.

ADHD starts out some way – too much insulin leading to a low sugar levels. But ADHD have another hormone disorder: Adrenaline. Brain cannot function without sugar, and the body’s amazing capacity pours out adrenaline to raise sugar level and the process is called Gluconeogenesis. Adrenaline, which is natural speed, causes these kids to be hyperactive. Most ADHD child often carries type A personalities (Workaholics) in their adulthood and are at risk for developing bipolar disorder. They frequently develop chemical dependencies on Alcohol, Cigarettes, Methamphetamine and some other addictions. Very often hormonal problems lead to depression. So, you are probably in a situation like this;

· High Sugar – High insulin, hyperactive.

o Sugar droops abnormally.

o Adrenaline takes sugar from brain and you cannot focus.

o You take sugar again and the insulin is double. A vicious cycle.

How to solve your problem: Balancing the hormone is very important through diet, moderate exercise and visiting an endocrinologist who can adjust your hormone levels. Kids with ADHD are treated with drugs - such as Ritalin, Adderall and Strattera. In your case Ritalin has been prescribed. You can visit your doctor and explain your situation. He might adjust or withdraw your medication slowly.

Health Tips: Autoimmune Disease

Many clinicians believe that every disease is essentially the result of a breakdown of our immune system. But in the bizarre case of auto immune disease, the immune system actually becomes the body’s worst enemy itself by attacking normal cells and tissues. If it attacks the joint space we call it Rheumatoid Arthritis; if it attacks, our bowels, we call it Crohn's disease or Ulcerative Colitis; if it attacks the myelin sheath of our nerves, we call it Multiple Sclerosis; and when it attacks the connective tissue of our body, we call it Lupus or Scleroderma.

Medical practitioners believe that autoimmune disease is the result of an “Overactive” immune system that begins attacking “self” instead of “non-self”. But it made more sense that, in the case of autoimmune disease, the immune system, rather than being overactive, had instead become confused and was now attacking the body rather than foreign invaders as it was designed to do.

Many researchers not only believe that Oxidative Stress is the underlying cause of every autoimmune disease, but that it also could be the culprit that causes our immune system to actually attack us. The fact of the root cause of autoimmune disease is Oxidative Stress and your Gene.

The root cause of autoimmune disease is Oxidative Stress. The antioxidant level in persons with Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus, MS, Crohn’s and Scleroderma are significantly decreased. Low antioxidant levels have also been slow to increase one’s risk of developing Rheumatoid Arthritis. The clinical indicators of oxidative stress are also very high in these patients, especially during a flare-up period of these diseases.

Antioxidant Supplementation would therefore be ideal for patient with these autoimmune diseases. Not only can antioxidant supplements optimize the natural antioxidant defense system but they can also enhance our immune system and help control and the circumvent this entire vicious cycle.

The basic traditional treatment of both Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis is the use of Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) and aspirin. While these drugs reduce inflammation in joints, they are also responsible for frequent adverse side effects of stomach ulcer and upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding.

Risk of physical inactivity: What should we do?

Howdy! Today we're going to observe the dangers of being inactive. Okay so before discussing the risks of Physical activity, how about we first know what physical idleness is? It is as any substantial development created by skeletal muscles that require vitality use. Physical fitness can be characterized as a vital piece of general soundness of a person, which incorporates everything from physical wellness to general prosperity. Do you consider yourself as a physically active person? Before the end of this article you can assess your exercises well and answer to this question. Give me a chance to go up against you with a certainty:

We all are under the control of an inactive way of life. It is a kind of way of life with no or sporadic physical action. A man who carries on with an inactive way of life may conversationally be known as a couch potato. Do you know an inactive way of life and absence of physical action can add to or be a danger component for Anxiety? I’m sure you won’t like it for you. Physical inactivity largely affects our health. Truth be told, its effect is practically identical to that of cigarette smoking.

By examination, specialists call attention to that cigarette smoking is evaluated to bring about around 5 million deaths worldwide every year and Physical inactivity has been recognized as the fourth driving danger element for worldwide mortality creating an expected 3.2 million deaths all inclusive. 3.2 million is a gigantic number and difficult to accept yet tragically this is true and I trust none of you needs to be one of these 3.2 million individuals. This is not to scare you rather this is to spur towards being physically active.

Sleep Apnea : The reason why one cann't sleep enough

Many persons who suffer from poor quality rest at night suffer from Sleep Apnea, a condition in which breathing is disrupted during sleep… but very few recognize this. They often find that their sleep is often disturbed but are unable to put a finger on the cause for the disruption. When Sleep Apnea becomes a suspect cause of their rest problems, those facing the diagnosis often wonder what factors may have led to the problem.

There are a number of things that can cause Sleep Apnea. Some of them are related to the structure of the body or genealogy while others are associated with other medical conditions. Being masculine increases one’s likelihood of facing the condition. Another cause is excess weight or a thick neck. Age is also a contributing factor with individuals over forty years old being more likely to have the ailment than those who are younger.

Medical conditions such as GERD or Gastroesophageal Reflux can cause the development of Sleep Apnea. Sometimes the condition is triggered by issues in the oral cavity or throat area: larger than normal tonsils, for instance, or a deviated septum, may affect breathing during sleep. Some persons though, are genetically predisposed to the condition.
