The new respiratory coronavirus COVID-19 is particularly worrying for the 2.7 million Australians who already suffer from asthma. That's roughly  one in nine  people. Viral respiratory infections, in particular those that cause the common cold, typically trigger flareups of asthma. They are the main reason for asthma episodes in both children and adults during autumn and winter. So it's natural for asthmatics to fear they may be more at risk during the coronavirus pandemic. We do not yet know if asthma sufferers are at risk of more serious problems than others in the event of an infection, but they can do some things to reduce the impact of infection, whether catching a cold or a coronavirus infection. Good asthma control Asthma causes inflammation in the lining of the airways of the lung, and the condition is long-term for most asthma patients, adults or children. It can lead to a progressive narrowing of the alveoli, and normal lung function may no longer return. Good asthma ...

Coronavirus causes hepatitis! A woman was transferred to the emergency department at Northwell Health Hospital in New York, where her laboratory tests showed high levels of liver enzymes with a dark color of urine, then her temperature rose on the second day of her care so that doctors would then discover her infection with the new Coronavirus, according to a report of researchers from the hospital. This is the first documented case of a patient with COVID-19 who suffered acute hepatitis symptoms as the first symptom of the disease before respiratory symptoms appeared, according to the report, which was published on the website of the American Journal of Gastroenterology. According to previous data on the disease, most of the early signs of COVID-19 infection are symptoms affecting the respiratory system such as fever, shortness of breath, sore throat and cough, in addition to pneumonia that is inferred by radiographs, although disruption of liver enzymes is not an uncommon symptom of ...

Coronavirus «coronaviruses» belong to a group of viruses that infect animals, and its name is derived from its crown-like or aura-like appearance, as it contains bulbs of bulbs that emerge from its surface and give it a distinctive look. COVID-19 disease was caused by the new coronavirus, SARS-Cove-2. Coronavirus infection is in one of two ways: either an infection in the lungs causes some cases that people call colds or an infection in the intestine that causes diarrhea. COVID-19 disease begins in the lungs, as is a common "cold" that is also caused by coronaviruses but then causes immune system sabotage which can lead to death or long-term lung damage. Genetically, the SARS-Cove-2 virus is very similar to other coronaviruses that affect the human respiratory system, such as the Coronavirus associated with the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS-Cove), and the Coronavirus associated with the Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS-Cove virus). However, subtle genetic diff...

Shed baby weight with these simple (and sensible) weight loss tips Looking after a little one is rewarding yet exhausting, so it's important to take it easy when it comes to fitness. Although it's tempting to revert back to your pre-baby workout straight after giving birth, it's important you give your body adequate time to recover from labour - this is usually around 6 weeks after giving birth!

Introduction: In one of the ancient Egyptian papyrus leaves dating back to around 3000 B.C., a Pharaonic doctor talks about 8 cases of breast cancer he tried to eradicate, and then concludes that this disease is untreatable! Today, after 5,000 years of bitter struggle, people still consider breast and other cancers to be a death sentence, and they are often right. Breast cancer begins, as with other malignant tumors at the microscopic cellular level, when the living cell is exposed to environmental or genetic mutations sufficiently and long enough, these cancers trigger changes in the cell nucleus at the genetic material level ( DNA and RNA, thus transforming the natural cell into an abnormal malignant cell, and begin to grow and reproduce in an out-of-control way that is contrary to the previously established cellular life cycle and death. Cancer can begin in any part or component of the breast, but the majority of malignant tumors in the breast begin in ducts, small ducts that transp...

Fed up with counting those calories? Balance your body with our easy-to-follow weight loss diet plan If you want a slimmer physique, why not try the  pH  diet? The diet uses what we eat to restore our body to its naturally  alkaline  state. pH (potential of hydrogen) indicates how acidic or alkaline a solution might be. The higher the pH, the more alkaline it is. When the food we eat ‘burns’ with oxygen in our cells to produce energy a residue is made that is acidic, alkaline or neutral, which is a pH 7. Our kidneys, skin, and lungs try to get rid of the residues left by acid-forming foods through urine, sweat, and breath. The PH diet suggests that acidic residues in the body accumulate and this slows the body down, causing low energy, lifeless skin, and weight problems. ‘Acid-forming foods, such as meat, dairy, and sugar, can cause and aggravate inflammatory conditions in the body,’ explains Yvonne Bishop-Weston, nutrition consultant at the Foods for Life clinic in Harley Street. This...
