Health Things: Quinoa: nutritional value and action
2024-02-16 10:57:29
The quinoa or quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa) is not a cereal in itself, although it forms grains or seeds, but rather a pseudocereal of the chenopodiaceae subfamily, which in turn belongs to the amarantaceae family, which is the same as beets, spinach or chard. Centuries ago it was already used by Incas for its basic diet, and is currently grown in Peru, Bolivia, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador and even in countries like the United States and England. In fact, in Bolivia (the largest producer in the world) its cultivation is very important for farmers.
Its flavor is quite similar to whole grain ricel, however its texture is much finer. In South America its consumption is quite widespread, both for its easy digestion and for its high nutritional value, with a large number of beneficial properties for health. In addition, it also stands out for its great conservation, since it has great resistance to parasites or insects, thanks to a very resistant saponin that protects the quinoa. In addition, it has a large number of beneficial properties.
The contribution of proteins It is much higher than in any cereal, with an average of 16 to 23% in the grain.
The Controversial Exit of Roberto Mancini in the 2023 Saudi Arabia vs. South Korea Match
2024-02-16 10:39:01
One of the most eye-catching scenes in the match between Saudi Arabia and South Korea in the 2023 Asian Nations Cup is: The moment when Italian coach Roberto Mancini left the field before the end of the match sparked a lot of controversy in the arena among fans and critics.
This is what Muhammad Al-Deayea commented on on the Dorina Ghair programme. He pointed out that such an act is enough to kill the players morally, saying, “If I were in Al-Kassar’s place and the national team coach left the field, I would be morally finished.”

MENOPAUSE: The trio of migraines, hot flashes and night sweats should be a warning
#MENOPAUSE #trio #migraines #hot #flashes #night #sweats #warning
The study tells us in particular that this higher risk of heart problems and stroke is mainly observed only in women suffering from hot flashes, night sweats and long-term migraines. In terms of cardiovascular prevention, the priority is to
focus on reducing cardiovascular risk but also on possible migraine treatment.
The history also raises the question: Are middle-aged women plagued by migraines, hot flashes and night sweats ‘predisposed’ to a higher risk of heart attack or stroke?
The studies are based on an in-depth analysis of data from a long-term cohort (Cardia) of more than 1,900 women who had regular physical examinations, blood tests and completed annual health surveys, between the end of adolescence and early thirties. These participants, now in their 50s and 60s, provided researchers with a long-term view of the factors that shape health in the years before and after menopause. These two new studies provide a first answer:

Parsi and aortic dissection, what is the very serious (and potentially fatal) disease that has struck the political scientist breaking latest news
by Laura Cuppini
It occurs when the internal layer of the aorta tears, causing blood to enter the wall and causing the formation of a false “lumen”, the rupture of which leads to an often fatal hemorrhage.
Vittorio Emanuele Parsi, full professor of International Relations at the Catholic University of Milan, underwent emergency surgery for dissection of the aorta, as he said in an interview with Corriere. On December 27, while speaking in public in Cortina, he had a strong pain in his chest. A few hours later he was in the operating room.
The true light and the false light
Aortic dissection (or dissection) is a very serious pathology characterized by the passage of blood between two layers of the aorta wall, which are separated with the formation of two “lumen” (internal cavities of the artery): the true lumen of the aorta and the “false lumen”. The outer wall of the false lumen is very weak and its rupture leads to fatal aortic hemorrhage. Aortic dissection carries high mortality rates within the first 48 hours of symptom onset.
The causes and role of hypertension
Aortic dissection can be caused by Marfan syndrome (systemic connective tissue disease) or by atherosclerosis (pathology characterized by alterations of the artery wall,
New Lyme Disease Tracking Methodology Reveals Sharp Increase in Reported Cases, but CDC Cautions it may Overestimate Actual Spike
The Rising Concern of Vector-Borne Diseases in the United States
Diseases spread by ticks and other insects are becoming more common in the United States. However, recent findings suggest that the significant spike in reported Lyme disease cases may not be a true reflection of increased disease risk.
In 2022, there were over 62,000 cases of Lyme disease reported to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). This represents a nearly 70% jump from the annual average between 2017 and 2019. But according to the CDC, this sharp increase is more likely due to changes in surveillance methods rather than an actual change in disease prevalence.
The majority of Lyme disease cases in the US are concentrated in just over a dozen jurisdictions primarily located in the Northeast, mid-Atlantic, and upper-Midwest regions. These areas have a higher prevalence of ticks that transmit the disease. The Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists revised their reporting criteria for Lyme disease cases in 2022. This revision allows high-incidence jurisdictions to report cases based solely on laboratory evidence without collecting additional clinical information from patients.
According to the CDC’s report, health departments before 2022 faced challenges confirming clinical information required for reporting Lyme disease cases.
New Drug Quadruples Survival Rates for Aggressive Form of Cancer, Scientists Say
New Drug Quadruples Survival Rates for Aggressive Form of Cancer, Scientists Say
In a groundbreaking development, scientists at Queen Mary University of London have announced the discovery of a new drug that has the potential to revolutionize the treatment of a hard-to-treat and aggressive form of cancer. This new treatment has been found to “quadruple” three-year survival rates and increase average survival by 1.6 months. Mesothelioma, a type of cancer that affects the lining of the lungs and is usually linked to asbestos exposure, has seen little progress in treatment options over the past two decades. However, this new drug, which works by cutting off the tumor’s food supply, is the first of its kind for mesothelioma in 20 years.
The study, led by Professor Peter Szlosarek at Queen Mary, involved administering chemotherapy every three weeks for up to six cycles to all patients. Half of the patients were also given injections of the new drug, ADI-PEG20 (pegargiminase), while the other half received a placebo for two years. The trial, known as the ATOMIC-meso trial and sponsored by Polaris Pharmaceuticals, included 249 patients with pleural mesothelioma, with an average age of 70, and was conducted at 43 centers across five countries from 2017 to 2021.
Cyberattack against Viamedis and Almerys: what precautions should be taken?
Viamedis and Almerys announced in recent days that they had been victims of a computer hack: between them, these companies provide the third-party payment mechanism on behalf of the supplementary health insurance of several million social security holders in France. In a press release published Wednesday February 7, the National Commission for Information Technology and Liberties (CNIL), the policeman of personal data, specified that “this data leak concerns more than 33 million people”.
However, the exact extent of this compromise remains very unclear: at this stage, it is not possible to say how many policyholders saw their data sucked up by the hackers. This figure of “33 million” is indeed an estimate. “At first glance, it appears that this volume represents the actual number of people whose data was compromised during the attack. The people concerned are those who are insured and whose names appear on the complementary health cards, this can be the main subscriber as well as the members of his family insured with him, specifies the CNIL, requested by The world.
“This volume may be revised upwards or downwards once the CNIL has completed its investigations,

Oysters are rich in omega-3s, which increase blood flow and can help with erectile and testicular function. [사진=게티이미지뱅크]Even food, which is the starting point for health, can help increase sexual desire. This food is considered an aphrodisiac. First of all, it’s not about chocolate, which is a symbol of sweetness. A study that tested chocolate and women’s sexual desire found no difference in sexual desire between chocolate eaters and those who did not eat chocolate. The American portal “AOL” has introduced seven aphrodisiac foods.
Oysters that increase blood flow
Oysters are one of the best known aphrodisiacs. “Oysters are rich in omega-3s, which increase blood flow and may help with erectile and testicular function,” said Dr. Lisa Young, a member of the American Council of Medical Experts. “They are rich in the mineral zinc, which may play a role in regulating testosterone production. “That’s why it got the name “strengthening sexual desire.”” Zinc has been found to improve dopamine levels in the body. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter linked to pleasure,
New therapy for heart valve insufficiency: tricuspid valve replacement successfully carried out via the groin for the first time in Austria 2024-02-15 20:28:25
Vienna (OTS) – Severe heart disease or pulmonary hypertension often leads to a leak in the tricuspid valve, the valve between the right atrium and the right ventricle. But tricuspid regurgitation can occur even without a clearly identifiable cause. So far, this leak has been treated primarily with medication using water-propelling agents and, for several years now, with clips in the heart valve. This meant that serious leaks could not be sufficiently remedied. With catheter-based valve replacement, a minimally invasive procedure is now available as a new treatment option for severe cases. At the University Clinic for Internal Medicine II of AKH Vienna and MedUni Vienna, the procedure was successfully carried out via the groin for the first time in Austria. It was the third implantation of this new heart valve worl dwide.
If the heart valve between the right atrium and the right ventricle no longer closes, every time the right ventricle contracts, blood flows back into the right atrium. This pendulum flow in the right heart leads to heart enlargement and right heart failure. Shortness of breath, water retention in the stomach and legs and even kidney dysfunction are the consequences. Tricuspid insufficiency has so far mostly been treated therapeutically with water-propelling agents.
