Dandruff
Dandruff has beenblamed on a multiplicityof causes,includingdry skin,oily skin,toomuch or toolittle hair washing, diet,stressor hygiene. However, the real causeof dandruffis actually a yeast-like fungus, Malasseziaglobosa,whichliveson your scalp, feedingon skinoils.
Dandruff is sheddedskin; dandruffsufferersshedskinmuch more rapidly than other people.This happens becausethe fungususes enzymescalledlipasesto metabolizethe oils, whichcreatesa by-product called oleic acid. The acid penetratesyour skinand triggersskincell shedding.
A teamof researchersfor Procter& Gamble (manufacturersof Head & Shouldersanti-dandruff shampoo) has sequencedthe DNA of the fungusand analyzed the lipasesit produces.They hope theseinvestigations will eventuallylead to new treatmentsfor dandruff.
Dr. Mercola answer:
This is another classic exampleof blaming an infectiousagent for the “cause” of a disease. Whilethis informationis useful and can be very helpful in treating the problemonceyou have it, thisknowledgereally doesn’t help you understandhow to changethe underlyingreasonswhy you gotthe infection.
You can easily treatthe dandruffinfectionby usingSelsun Blue, whichhas seleniumin it, and leaving it on your scalp overnight.Alternatively you couldalso use Head and Shoulder’sshampoo(zinc is the active ingredient). The key is leaving it on your scalp overnightas the seleniumor zinc will actually kill thisfungus.
However if you eliminatethe fungusyou still needto correctthe reasonwhy they choseyour scalp to invade and multiply.Typically thatis relatedto an imbalancein the fats you are eating.
Dandruff, as well as other dry-skin conditions,can oftenbe a sign thatyou have a fatty acid imbalance. This is a very commonproblem,as your standardAmericandiet(SAD) is far higher in omega-6 than omega-3.
Your ideal ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fats is 1:1. But the currentratio of omega-6 to omega-3 in the averageAmericandietvaries from 20:1 to 50:1!
Your primary sourcesof omega-6 are corn, soy, canola, safflower, and sunfloweroil; theseoils are overabundantin your typicaldiet,whichexplains your excessomega-6 levels. Omega-3, meanwhile,is typically foundin flaxseed oil, walnut oil, and fish.
More than 2,000 scientificstudieshave demonstratedthe vast array of healthproblemsassociatedwith omega-3 deficiencies.Usually I talk aboutomega-3 in the contextof improvingbrain function,and preventingchronicdiseaseslike diabetes,arthritis,heart diseaseand cancer.
However, omega-3 deficienciescan also have a negativeimpacton your skin,creatingskin-related problems,suchas:
Eczema
“Alligator” skin
Crackedheels
“Chickenskin” on the backof your arms
Dry, unmanageablehair
Dandruff
Supplementingyour dietwith goodquality omega-3 in the form of krill oil or fish oil couldhelp alleviate thesetroublesomeand uncomfortablesymptoms.
In addition to that,keep in mindthateverythingyou slatheron your skin,and puton your scalp goesinto your bloodstream,and can affect your overall healthand internalbalance. Virtually all of your regular
shampoosand conditionerscontain harmfulchemicalsthatcan createskinirritation,contributingto dry scalp and excessivedandruff.
I recommendbuying organicpersonal-careproductsthatdo notcontain parabensand sodiumlaureth, or lauryl sulfate. The latter two are knowneye and skinirritants.
Instead, look for productsthatcontain naturalantimicrobialand antifungalingredients,suchas grapefruit seed extract,or antioxidantvitamins (A, C and E) thatact as naturalpreservatives,without dangerousside effects.
Following a healthydiet,modifiedto fit your nutritionaltype can also help you balance outyour internal system,and eliminateexcessivefunginaturally.

Sublageal haematoma
sub-galeal haematoma describes bleeding in the potential space between the periosteum and the galea aponeurosis .It most commonly occurs after vacuum assisted delivery,but may also be seen following head trauma. In patients with intracranial haemorrhage or skull fractures,the incidence of subgaleal haemorrhageis increased.
Open head wounds
The first principlein an open head wound is thatwhat may look like a simplescalp wound may have a tear in the dura underneathit. The dura forms an excellentbarrier to infection,so thatwoundswhichgo through it are much more seriousthan thosewhichdo not. Even the mostseeminglytrivial head wound is potentially dangerous.If you neglecta wound of the dura, meningitis,a brain abscessor osteomyelitismay follow. X–rays are useful-much more so than in fracturesof the base. So X–ray all butthe mosttrivial open head injuriesin search of: (1) An open fractureundera penetratingwound. (2) A depressedfractureneeding elevation. (3) A spiculeof bone going throughthe dura whichneedsto be removed.(4) A foreign body.

Psoriasis
Symptoms of scalp psoriasis
Psoriasis is a disorder that affects skin at the cellular level, rapidly accelerating the production of cells and causing them to build up on the surface of the skin. Before long, silver, scale-like patches form, and are often accompanied by dryness, itchiness, inflammation and pain. While psoriasis can occur anywhere on the body, scalp psoriasis characterizes this condition when it occurs on the scalp, along the hairline, on the forehead or face and behind the ears. Scalp psoriasis is a form of plaque psoriasis and often, as the result of the buildup of dry, dead skin, flaking will occur or the patches will thicken to form scale-like plaques.
The severity of scalp psoriasis varies from person to person. Some will experience one or a few small patches while others may develop patches across the entire surface of the scalp. Some lesions cause little discomfort and can go unnoticed, while others may become painful, swollen, itchy, dry and/or inflamed. In rare cases, temporary hair loss may occur as the result of excessive scratching or harsh treatments.
Causes and risk factors
Unfortunately, scientists haven’t determined a specific cause for psoriasis, but genes are likely to play a role. According to Mayo Clinic, one in three individuals affected with psoriasis has a close relative that also suffers from the disease. Other factors can increase the risk of developing psoriasis and/or scalp psoriasis, including:
- obesity
- HIV
- strep throat
- smoking
- stress
Treatment options
Scalp psoriasis can easily be misdiagnosed as dandruff or seborrheic dermatitis, so it’s important to visit the doctor or dermatologist if you experience any unusual symptoms. He or she will likely do a small skin biopsy in order to properly diagnose the condition. Even though there isn’t a cure for scalp psoriasis, there are treatments and lifestyle remedies that can significantly improve symptoms. Treatment depends on the severity of the condition and most medications intended to treat scalp psoriasis contain similar ingredients as those that treat psoriasis on the body.
- Mild to moderate: For a mild case of psoriasis, using specially formulated shampoos or topical creams that contain coal tar and non-coal tar is an effective treatment that hydrates skin while relieving itchiness and inflammation.
- Product picks: Tarsum Shampoo/Gel from Summers is a therapeutic shampoo that features a special applicator cap to apply the product directly on psoriasis plaques. For a moisturizing and healing cream, Mushatt's No. 9 Scalp Cream blends urea, sweet almond oil, sesame seed oil and salicylic acid to relieve itching, stop flaking and restore moisture for a healthier scalp.
- Severe cases: For severe cases of scalp psoriasis, your doctor may prescribe a topical treatment. Prescription medications including Anthralin, Calcipotriene (Dovonex), Tazarotene (Tazorac) or corticosteroids. These treatments vary in strength and each has different potential side effects. In addition, your doctor may recommend biologics, which are oral drugs that work to improve immune function and may relieve the symptoms of scalp psoriasis. Talk to your doctor about which medication is right for you.
All forms of psoriasis, including scalp psoriasis, are often accompanied by mental and emotional challenges that only make dealing with the physical symptoms more difficult. Many find the visible plaques, scales and flaking to be unattractive, uncomfortable and embarrassing, causing stress, social anxiety and depression. When treating the physical symptoms of psoriasis, be sure to talk with your doctor about coping mechanisms to help deal with the mental stigma as well. Although there is no cure, with a diligent treatment plan, you can control the symptoms and prevent future outbreaks of scalp psoriasis for skin that looks and feels better.

Scalp Folliculities
How to identify scalp folliculitis
Folliculitis is the term for inflammation of the hair follicles and can occur anywhere that hair grows on your body. Since follicles are densest on the scalp, this is a common place for inflammation to develop. It typically shows up as itchy white or red pimples on the scalp or hairline.
Scalp folliculitis may resemble acne, but there is a difference between the two conditions: acne is a noninfectious form of folliculitis triggered by oil or bacteria clogging pores, while scalp folliculitis is usually due to infection with staphylococcus bacteria or a fungus that infects the damaged hair follicle.
Symptoms of scalp folliculitis vary according to the type of infection:
- Superficial folliculitis, which affects the upper part of the hair follicle, is characterized by:
- Red, inflamed skin
- Clusters of tender or itchy red bumps that develop around hair follicles
- Pustules that open and crust over
- Deep folliculitis, which starts deeper in the skin and affects the entire hair follicle, includes the following symptoms:
- A swollen bump or mass on the scalp
- Pus-filled blisters
- Possible scars once the infection is clear
Causes and risk factors
Scalp folliculitis can affect anyone, but some factors make people especially susceptible. Possible causes include:
- Chronic skin conditions, such as eczema or dermatitis
- Diseases that lower your resistance to infection, such as diabetes or HIV
- Friction from shaving
- Sweating
When folliculitis is severe, the inflammation is so intense that it can permanently destroy the hair follicles, leading to hair loss. Deep folliculitis can also result in scarring.
Home treatments
Mild folliculitis typically heals on its own within about two weeks, with the aid of over-the-counter antibiotic ointments if necessary. To treat scalp folliculitis at home, try the following options:
- A warm, moist compress or washcloth made with white vinegar can relieve itching and ease discomfort.
- Shampoo frequently using a medicated shampoo or one with tea tree oil – an essential oil that has effective germicidal and antibacterial properties, according to Dr. Andrew Weil.
- For a natural approach, Dr. Weil recommends supplementing your diet with GLA (gamma-linolenic acid) and omega-3 fatty acids, which promote healthy growth of skin, hair and nails.
- Apply an oatmeal lotion, or an over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream, to the affected area to ease itchy skin.
Tips for prevention
Scalp folliculitis may not always be preventable, but there are ways to help stave off possible infection or keep it from recurring.
- Bathe or shower daily, especially after exercise.
- Use a clean towel every time you bathe, and don’t share towels with others.
- Avoid scratching the bumps.
- Don’t use oils on your skin and scalp, since they can trap bacteria in your hair follicles.
- Only use hot tubs that have been properly disinfected.

Ginjal II
- Control the balance of water in your body
- Tell your body when to start and stop making oxygen-carrying red blood cells
- Control how acidic your blood is
- Filter your blood and pass the waste products on to your bladder as urine
- Control your blood pressure
- Carry blood to and from the filters inside the kidney
- Filter blood
- Carry waste to your bladder
Symptoms of Kidney Disease
Kidney diseases can cause abnormalities in each kidney function, for example:
- Abnormal control of the amount of water in your body causes accumulation of too much water resulting in swelling (edema)
- Telling your body to stop making red blood cells causes too few red blood cells in the blood (anemia)
- Abnormal control of how acidic your blood is causes too much acid in the blood (acidosis)
- Reduced filtering of blood causes accumulation of waste products (such as urea) in blood (uremia)
- Abnormal control of your blood pressure causes higher than normal blood pressure (hypertension)
The Nephron
NEPHROS is the Greek word for kidney. Your kidney doctor is called a NEPHROLOGIST because he treats kidney diseases.The tiny structures that do the work in your kidneys are called NEPHRONS. Each of your kidneys contains about one million nephrons. Each nephron has a small blood vessel that brings in unfiltered blood, a GLOMERULUS (glow-mare-Yule-us) that filters the blood, a tubule that caries away filtered waste materials in the urine, and a small blood vessel that returns filtered blood to the body.
The Glomerulus
Glomerular Disease
Diseases that injure GLOMERULI (plural for glomerulus) are called GLOMERULAR DISEASES. Laboratory analysis of the urine from people who have glomerular disease often shows protein in the urine (proteinuria) and blood in the urine (hematuria).

Mengolah daging babi dengan sehat
| Raw fresh Pork
Daging merah
seperti daging babi merupakan salah satu menu sumber protein yang sehat. Dalam
setiap 100 gr daging babi mentah terkandung 18-32 gr protein (variatif,
tergantung jenis bagian-bagian tubuhnya). Kadar proteinnya menandingi kandungan
protein di setiap 100 gr sapi yaitu 36 gr. Namun, perlu diingat juga, tingkat
kolesterol yang tinggi pada daging merah (khusunya daging babi), jadi jangan berlebihan mengkonsumsinya.
Meski demikian,dalam 3 oz (28gr) sirloin
roast pork (daging bagian punggung) hanya terkandung 3 gram lemak (66mg kolesterol)
dan 116 kalori serta 23 gram protein sementara dalam sirloin roast sapi
terkandung 19 gr protein. Kandungan lemak yang rendah ini membuat daging babi menjadi
salah satu menu sumber protein yang sehat. Selain itu, cara pengolahannya
juga mempengaruhi kandungan lemak didalamnya. Agar tidak menambah kandungan
lemak dan kalori pada olahan daging, jangan tambahkan minyak saat memasak.
Tips mengolah
daging babi yang sehat
Selamat
memasak..
cuap-cuap:
Daging
merah memiliki kualitas protein yang baik dan beragam dengan nutrisi yang
tinggi dibandingkan daging ayam. Namun, karena tingkat kolesterol yang tinggi jangan
berlebihan mengkonsumsinya.
Telur juga
memiliki tingkat kolesterol yang tinggi (160 mg/telur). Jadi, gak sehat
dikonsumsi berlebih, maksimal 2 telur/hari. Batas konsumsi kolesterol
200mg-250mg perhari.
Ikan
sangat sehat, tapi tergantung pengolahannya juga.
Daging
ayam tergolong rendah kolesterol dan tinggi protein dibandingkan daging
merah, namun kualitas protein dan nutrisinya lebih rendah dari daging merah.
Kolesterol
dibutuhkan dalam pembentukan hormon, vitamin D, melindungi sel dan dibutuhkan dalam pencernaan. Namun, tingkat kolesterol yang tinggi dapat
menyebabkan gagal jantung. Darah yang begitu kental dan lengket juga dapa
menyebabkan tekanan darah tinggi dan stroke. Selain itu, hati juga memproduksi kolesterol sehingga kita hanya membutuhkan sedikit saja tambahan kolesterol dari makanan.
Jadi kalau kamu pecinta daging merah,
jangan lupa untuk mengkonsumsi cukup sayur dan buah. alpukat, kiwi dan buah 2
lainnya sangat bagus dikonsumsi sebagai counter attack kolesterol.

Bukan Untuk Ahli Bedah Plastic
Sungguh saya tidak punya maksud apa-apa.
Saya bingung kenapa wanita tergila-gila dengan
payudara besar. Padahal itu kan hanya seonggok lemak. Payudara besar
memang indah dibalik sweater, tapi
sekali lagi itu hanyalah seonggok lemak, yang bahkan tidak gunanya.
Ya, memang tidak ada gunanya, selain memberimu sakit punggung, sakit
leher, goncangan yang berlebihan ketika bergerak dan iritasi akibat gesekan saat
bergerak diantara kedua payudara besar akibat beban yang dimilikinya.Oh girl, just embrace your self, the way it is. Your big fascinating, medium pretty, small cute and comfort. They are all beautifull!
Keep Healthy and happy, guys.
i'm proud to be an indonesian and i love my country and i pray for my country.

- Get your blood and urine checked for kidney disease.
- Manage your diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease.

- What is my GFR?
- What is my urine albumin result?
- What is my blood pressure?
- What is my blood glucose (for people with diabetes)?
- Don’t smoke; it’s the only thing you can do directly to affect the health of your kidneys. Smoking furs the artery to the kidney, which can cause kidney failure. Smoking also affects the blood vessels to the heart and brain in the same way, causing heart attacks and strokes. Unfortunately when damage has occurred, stopping smoking has little effect, so it’s important not to start in the first place.
- Keep to a healthy weight. Obesity leads to type 2 diabetes which is the most common cause of kidney failure.
- Make sure your blood pressure is normal. High blood pressure can damage the kidneys. Make sure you have it checked regularly, and that it is consistently below 130/80 mmHg. If you’re in an ‘at risk’ group, you should make sure it’s checked regularly, and start treatment if it goes up.
- Family history. If you know that someone else in your family has kidney failure, or has ever had dialysis or a transplant, get your kidneys checked with blood and urine tests, and an ultrasound. There are several inherited forms of kidney failure, the commonest being polycystic kidney disease.
