Abrasive nail files

Abrasive nail files   purchased for home use most often. They are plastic or wooden plate, which is glued rough paper.

Abrasiveness (the amount of abrasive, "rough" particles per 1 sq. Cm) in these nail files - is different, it is marked in the grit. For example, the package can be labeled as 100-150 grit or 180 grit, etc.

There is a special technique through which manufactured abrasive nail files . High-quality nail file, made in strict accordance with this technology, has a number of distinctive features:

- Between the paper and the rough ground at a nail file has a special gasket

- A good nail file to be flexible - depreciation is not allowing it to break down too quickly, and besides sawing less aggressive effect on the nails,

- Sawing on a plastic base considered more reliable than wood, and besides, they are easier to clean.

Natural nails, artificial nails

The abrasive nail file should be determined depending on what nails - natural or artificial. For artificial - acrylic or gel nails - nail file you will need with the lowest abrasion. This must take into account its future function:

- For correction of artificial nails, select nail file with an abrasive grit to 100,

- For filing - nail file with an abrasive from 100 to 180 grit.

For natural nails nail file with low abrasiveness are not suitable. In order to give them the desired shape or to file, look for a saw with marking of not less than 240 grit. Emery higher abrasiveness have a milder impact - they are suitable not only for correction as polishing. For example, abrasive saws from 900 to 1200 grit and make nails more brilliant.

Nail Polishing

How often should pass Nail polish ? Professional manicure argue that nail polish should be no more than 2-3 times a month. This in no case can not use other people's tools. The structure of the nail at a very difficult - it is necessary to carry infection, and the treatment can last for years.

Once the oil is dripped onto the surface of the nail, it is pounded nail file. Such polishing can have a small effect on the nail burn.

Nail files, nail polish that "dry running" - preferably for home use. When you work with them stands a small, invisible to the naked eye, the amount of silicone that is then polished. This is more secure, although they should not be abused.

Glass nail files

Ceramic Nail File

Ceramic Nail File   - Salvation for women whose nails are constantly exfoliate. When processing marigold tiny particles of crystals, which are made of such nail files remain on the edge of the nail, as if sealing them.

Please note only that the rasp very long nails or hard ceramic nail file can not. Such nails recommended to abrasive nail file to file and complete manicure already healing ceramic.

Jig polishing nails

Jig polishing nails   remind matchboxes - every side they covered with abrasives of varying degrees of hardness. With a nail file, you can restore the color of nails and make them completely smooth.

What is important: the most hard-sawing side of the box can not be used in the processing of natural nails - it is only for acrylic or gel only artificial nails maintained its onslaught without Accept.

The diaphragm of the stethoscope, which is pressed against the patient's skin, were infected much stronger than the hands of the doctor. Among the bacteria found there were microbes Staphylococcus aureus   - Deadly for some patients whose immune system is greatly weakened.

"Given the fact that the doctor uses a stethoscope throughout the day and night, constantly bringing it to the skin of different patients, it is not surprising that after each such examination on the surface of the device are found thousands of bacteria, - says Dr. Pete. - In order to monitor the spread of infections   Stethoscope be subjected antiseptic treatment after each patient contact!

70% of plastic surgeons using Lipofilling

70% of American plastic surgeons use a technique of fat grafting in operations for breast reconstruction. Such data are contained in the July issue of the journal Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.

Lipofilling

Although transplantation of fat ( Lipofilling ) Is an excellent alternative to the use of silicone implants and saline breast, most plastic surgeons use the technology not in the cosmetic and reconstructive surgery. Researchers surveyed 456 surgeons about how they use lipofilling, and 70% said yes.

As it turned out, in recent years the interest of professionals in this methodology has steadily increased. Fat transplant is extracted during liposuction, so this operation is like a double effect - it allows the patient to get rid of "surplus" in the same place at the same time increasing or reconstruct the breast. Most often, doctors perform liposuction of the abdomen and thigh area.

88% of plastic surgeons performing Lipofilling   in the chest, do it at reconstructive operations, often using fat patients with implants. Doctors believe the technology is particularly useful for transplantation to achieve the effect of changing the shape of the breast, including reconstruction after lumpectomy in the early stages of breast cancer.

You may recall that in the late 1980s in the professional community of plastic surgeons United States strongly recommended the use of fat grafting, because after these procedures worsened the possibility of early detection of breast tumors. But recently, scientists have proved that the task of diagnosis of cancer after transplantation excellent job mammography. (READ MORE)

But experienced dermatologists are required to offer you before going to the beauty clinic to try simple and effective skin care regimen, with which Victoria Beckham completely got rid of scarring of the skin . It includes a total of three points: exfoliation, cleansing and proper nutrition of the skin, which is necessary to ensure that the tissue was able to restore itself.

Exfoliation stimulates the production of natural proteins in the upper dermis, and increases the flow of oxygen promotes the release of enzyme protein in the stratum corneum, the most profound. This is what starts the process of recovery. Use the cleaners can remove the remnants of the dermis, and applying moisturizers with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory ingredients will nourish and soothe the skin.

True, there are about 10,000 different brands the most, producing products for skin care, and each of them claims that only its products gives the most spectacular results. A high price does not always mean high quality, and we look for those same products that will give the maximum effect.

In a good exfoliant should be present sodium bicarbonate, magnesium oxide, and quartz crystals, as well as components of the enzyme protein, such as pomegranate or pumpkin. The nourishing cream should be retinol (a form of vitamin A), ascorbic acid and vitamin E - a powerful antioxidant.

Scientists have abolished aspirin - it is dangerous to life

Regular aspirin will not protect a person from heart attack, as established by British scientists. Therefore, the existing recommendations need to be reviewed.

Aspirin

In the UK alone over a million victims Arrhythmia hearts   regularly taking aspirin   on the recommendation of his doctors. This is believed to provide anti-inflammatory drug prophylaxis of heart attacks and strokes in people at risk. But now British Medical Office issued new recommendations that repeal of the Council aspirin. Furthermore it is not considered a reliable means of prevention.

The recommendations said that aspirin is ineffective Protection of Victims cardiac arrhythmia And that little benefit that brings them health taking this medicine outweigh its side effects. Instead of aspirin Scientists recommend taking a new generation of drugs which, by their calculations, It could prevent up to 7,000 strokes and up to 2000 premature deaths annually.

We are talking about medicines from the so-called Group "new oral anticoagulants," which among other things includes dabigatran etexilate and rivaroxaban. These drugs are called the most efficient and effective for victims of cardiac arrhythmias. All patients encouraged to consult a general practitioner before to change the medication.

Aspirin is used as a means of diluting the blood and prevents the formation of blood clots, which is particularly important in the prevention of strokes. However, scientists have once again seen that the drug seriously increases the risk of internal bleeding, and its role in protecting against stroke not too impressive. (READ MORE)

Why do you constantly feel so tired? Perhaps this phenomenon is hiding a serious illness.

You can be excruciatingly difficult in the morning to get out of bed? You're not alone - from Chronic Fatigue   It is affecting millions of people, and this is one of the most common reasons for visits to doctors in many Western countries. Overall, one in five people now feel unusual fatigue, and one in ten suffers from a protracted, ongoing fatigue.

Of course, this may be due to the crazy pace of modern life, the violation of sleep. However, a professor of medicine from Birmingham Steve Field, believes that doctors should examine with special attention to such complaints from patients. " Chronic fatigue   may be a sign of serious illness - says Professor Field. - By itself, fatigue is not a disease, but a symptom of a condition. Perhaps the physical, mental and physical or social. If the reason is different, you should look for with bated medical problem. "

That explains the possible causes of some of the characteristic symptoms of fatigue Dr. Field:

Fatigue, weakness, shortness of breath: cardiomyopathy   or heart muscle disease. Inherited or acquired disease, which can be treated with inhibitors or beta-blockers.

Feeling cloudy, osolovelosti, shakiness, dry mouth, constipation or diarrhea that many believe that this is an allergic reaction, although often seen as the body's response to drugs from the group antihistamines . They cause a feeling of drowsiness in the brain. That is why children should not be given the old generation antihistamine x tablets to combat allergies.

Fatigue and pain in the muscles, loss of hair and bone mass, reduced libido, difficulties in concentration: male This can cause a fall in testosterone levels, which in turn is a symptom   hypogonadism   (a pathological condition caused by insufficient secretion of androgens). Affected by it five out of every thousand men.

Exhaustion after minor physical activity, "creeping" fatigue, vision problems, thirst, frequent urination, slow healing of cuts: undiagnosed type 2 diabetes.

Prevention of stroke rat poison no longer supercedes

One tablet daily rivaroxaban will provide patients with atrial fibrillation of the heart protection from stroke. Experts say the drug works no worse than the anticoagulant warfarin.

Warfarin   It was originally a rat poison (pictured), and as a means of preventing stroke, it is used with the 1950s. In rivarokasabana, according to scientists, fewer side effects. In the UK alone, up to 900 thousand patients with Atrial Fibrillation   We could go on rivaroxaban to prevent strokes.

This drug belongs to a new generation of anticoagulants - drugs that prevent the formation of blood clots. With atrial fibrillation   heart works much faster laid, because of which blood clots may form tiny capable of developing into thrombi and cause a stroke. Atrial fibrillation is responsible for one in seven cases of stroke.

Many patients with "mertsalkoy" have to take the rest of my life anticoagulants, so the question of drug development, "friendly" to patients, is very important. Rivaroxaban is much easier tolerated by patients, which is a strong argument in its favor.

However, a significant disadvantage is possible to name its price. In Britain, the monthly rate warfarin   It costs only 1 pound, excluding the price of doctor visits, and a month's supply of rivaroxaban - 64 pounds. But doctors believe that this change is worth the money. Because warfarin is badly combined with other drugs, alcohol and certain foods, including green vegetables and grapefruit.

With the threat of blood clots aspirin safer

Aspirin is safer in preventing deep vein thrombosis than warfarin, the researchers found both from Australia. However, this medicine is not an ideal or preferred.

Aspirin

Scientists from the University of Sydney We found that aspirin is a safer means of prevention deep venous thrombosis   (DVT) than Another popular anticoagulant warfarin . Aspirin should be people who react very badly to the long-term the use of anticoagulants. Note that the GW is a condition directly life-threatening to the patient, so that the increased tendency to it the emergence of receiving these drugs is absolutely necessary.

With long-term use warfarin   Internal threat grows bleeding and hemorrhagic stroke caused by hemorrhage brain. Therefore, patients should be tested regularly clotting blood, by which physicians determine the dose of warfarin or any other anticoagulants. New drugs in this group, such as dabigatran Rivaroxaban and more effective, and their admission Regular blood tests are not necessary. However, these drugs are much more expensive, and some patients are immune to them.

Scientists have found that taking Aspirin reduces the risk of DVT without increasing the danger of internal bleeding, which makes one of the most popular drugs in the world safer alternative to warfarin. Thus, with a daily intake of aspirin (100 mg daily) the risk of blood clots is reduced by 42%. However, anticoagulation allows to reduce the risk of thrombus formation by 80-90%, but the drugs in this group good is not perceived by all patients. The final conclusion researchers is: Aspirin is not ideal or preferred choice for patients at risk, but it can be used if people for some reason it does not take the anticoagulant. (READ MORE)

Admission anticoagulants deadly

Medication from the group anticoagulants is not only useless in preventing strokes, but also dangerous for good health. Some people taking these medications are dying because of them, as British expert.

Anticoagulants

Medicines from the group anticoagulants   take millions people worldwide. These drugs thin the blood, do not let the form in it clots, which can turn into a deadly blood clots and cause stroke, deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism. That is why these drugs so actively prescribed by doctors. Most often, these pills drunk middle- and older.

However, the known vascular surgeon from the UK Dr. Ander Cohen said anticoagulants On the contrary, increase the risk of stroke, but other type. If ischemic stroke occurs due order to thrombus shuts off blood flow to some parts of the brain (they account for 85% of all strokes), when hemorrhagic life-threatening situation arises due to cerebral hemorrhage. But anticoagulants contribute to this, as it does not give blood to clot. Their method also increases the risk of internal bleeding areas of the gastrointestinal tract.

Even 10-15 years ago, tens of thousands Russians died of a pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis and ischemic strokes - all these diseases develop because of blood clots. Active use anticoagulants reduced the mortality rate is very noticeable. But, according to Dr. Cohen, drugs from this group is used too broadly. They can only be prescribed to those patients who are at high risk. Such well, who runs the risk of blood clots is not too much, or not at all is at risk, should not take anticoagulants. But many doctors prescribe them very well.

Each year in British hospitals for surgical treatment delivered two million patients, and 800 thousand receiving anticoagulants. According to Dr. Cohen, drugs give even 20% the remaining 1, 2 million, although there is no evidence that they need them. Criteria for discharge anticoagulants too blurred. (READ MORE)

Typically, this operation is performed under local anesthesia, so the patient remains conscious. The process itself takes 90 minutes, and a few days later you can return to daily activities and work. The only limitation - you must abstain from sex for at least six consecutive weeks.

It tells the plastic surgeon from United States Louis Barnouti, already 20% of its clients are women who want to do labiaplasty . The youngest of them was 14 years old, and the most age - more than 65. The statistical report for 2010 said about the increase in the number of these procedures which were not carried out for cosmetic and medical reasons. It was nearly 100% in a few years.

So why do women go to labiaplasty? According to Dr. Barnouti, there are several reasons. First, a sense of "social inferiority," when you can not wear certain swimsuits. A sense of unease in intimate moments. There is a purely medical reasons - hypertrophy of the labia minora is unhygienic and unhealthy phenomenon.

A new way to replace the old silicone

Methods of so-called "reverse liposuction" allows plastic surgeons to replace old breast implants patients own fat. This solved the problem and remove it from those places that need to be adjusted.

The technique called simultaneous replacement implant fat (SIEF). With the help of plastic surgeons removed Obsolete breast implants But they do not change on a new batch of the silicone, and fat cells on their own patients. This is a new alternative to re- breast augmentation Which is often chosen women had once decided to make a bust of a lush.

Creator SIEF is a plastic surgeon from Boston, Dr. Daniel Affairs, who invented this technique to maintain the desired amount of breast patients and create a more natural form after removal of the implants. In the three weeks before surgery women wear a special device Brava, like a bra. It uses gentle negative pressure (vacuum) to gradually expand the chest.

On the day of surgery liposuction procedure is performed with the collection of fat cells from the hips and abdomen of the patient. Then, the collected oil is introduced into the area around the implants. The surgeon is able to re-create a new form of the bust, and she breast tissue becomes like clay sculptor. This allows quite substantial correction.

At the last step is to remove the old breast implants After which the remaining "pockets" filled with additional injections of fat. They are carried out at precisely the place under the skin, and which is formed by the use of Brava. Control monitoring one year after surgery showed that the patient's chest has the same volume, which had sown the original Breast Augmentation . But aesthetically bust looks more pleasant.

4 main questions about liposuction

Someone calls liposuction miraculous solution to all the problems with being overweight, while others believe that it only brings only a temporary effect, but the rest of his life leaving scars. Here are four questions, the answers to which will help you go through a safe and effective procedure with a maximum duration of effect.

Liposuction   It was presented to the world by the French surgeon Yves-Gerard Heloise in 1982. It was a new and radical treatment for those who would like to correct is not the most pleasant areas of the body, saturated excess fat. The simplicity and amazing effectiveness of the operation quickly made liposuction one of the most popular plastic surgery. Such it remains today. However, the success, effectiveness and sustainability of results   Liposuction   It depends on the readiness of the patient. Here are the four most popular issue associated with this procedure.

Who is a good candidate for liposuction? These are patients with isolated areas of fat that are clearly out of the general proportions of the body and are not corrected through diet and exercise. Since liposuction removes only fat, but excess skin, the area should have a good tension of the skin.

What is the best method of liposuction?   Despite the large number of procedures, their main principle is the same. The metal tube is placed in an adjustable zone and a special suction begins to pump out the unwanted fat. This so-called suction assisted liposuction method. To improve the results achieved can be applied to other methods, such as "melting" fat laser, freezing, ultrasound, etc.

How safe is liposuction?   Safe enough, if it holds a certified doctor who has experience in this matter. But she has a lot of risks, like any similar operation, such as bleeding, infection, nerve damage and a long rehabilitation. Make sure that you really trust a professional.

How long does the effect after liposuction? It all depends on the patient and his lifestyle. If after surgery you continue to adhere to the same irrational diet, not giving time to sports, it rolled out the fat will come back very quickly. If you're keeping calories, the result can be maintained indefinitely.

Choosing the right diet, rich in fruits, vegetables and fish significantly reduces the risk of a second heart attack. That is the conclusion drawn by researchers from McMaster University in Canada.

These people have a 35% reduced risk of developing cardiovascular disease by 14% reduces the risk reinfarction And 28% - congestive heart failure. Finally, the risk of stroke supporters healthy diet   It declined by 19%.

"Very often, patients who have had a heart attack, they find that they do not need to sit on some special healthy diet , Since they already receive drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels, - said study author Mahshid Degan. - It is fundamentally wrong. The correct diet brings added health benefits, along with aspirin, angiotensin modulators, lipid lowering agents and beta-blockers. "

Study participants with cardiovascular diseases who regularly answered questions about how often they consume milk, vegetables, fruits, grains, fish, nuts, meat and poultry.   Healthy Diet   He called one in which there was a high content of fruits, vegetables, whole grains and nuts, as well as a large number of fish.

Spouses who do not sleep together!

  An important part of married life takes place in the bedroom. And even in the same bed where the couple sleep together. Meanwhile, many physicians and psychologists are convinced that sharing a bed is bad for the health of the husband and wife and their relationship.

Married life   in the past it had their own traditions, and very strong. In ancient Rome, for example, the marriage bed is not used to sleep, and was intended solely for lovemaking. In the Victorian era among the British, family ties, it was also not accepted sleep together in one bed . In Russia until the revolution in the privileged and aristocratic circles of society it was considered normal to have separate double bedrooms. And even in peasant huts husbands and wives slept in different places.

It is believed that the tradition sleep together in one bed   It has evolved with the advent of the industrial revolution, when people began to move to the city. Tiny apartments provide spouses living space is very limited, and they were vnuzhdeny share a bed for two.

Bedroom - a reason for neurosis

Does it makes sense sleeping separately ? We know that Ayurveda recommends spouses sleep in the same bed . A number of modern scientific studies also show that when the couple sleep together, it often causes various disorders of psycho-emotional health - neuroses, stress, insomnia.

When the couple sleep together Their nervous systems are not fully rest, and people can not fully relax. Symptomatic women suffer this inconvenience is much easier than men. For the male psyche need to share his bed is a potential irritant. The men laid the unconscious desire to protect their place of accommodation from possible enemy - this quality is something of an instinct (which, incidentally, makes a man a defender of family, country, etc.) and even in a dream a man continues to perform the function of energy protection. Therefore, the presence of another person near him annoying, makes it impossible to relax until the end. According to experts the man needs a few years to his subconscious got used to the fact that close to someone is sleeping.

When the couple sleep together Physiological needs and characteristics of each of the partners also have consequences. For example, most young women cold at night, but with the age of the female body begins to heat up because of menopausal hot flashes. A man over the years may begin to wake up frequently at night to use the toilet - affected prostate problems. Because of such "trifles" Partners often wake up, fall asleep out of time and as a result suffer from lack of sleep. Meanwhile sleep deficit   It can cause depression, irritability, fatigue, vision disorders (itching, burning eyes), heart disease.

Bad habit

Author of numerous studies on the topic of marital "hanging out" in the bedroom, an American professor Paul Rosenblatt interviewed dozens of couples. And he came to the conclusion that part of the bedroom is "a hotbed of tension," where between husband and wife regularly flare up disputes and quarrels. For example, the couple arguing and cussing because if you can start up to your bed pets, or from the fact that someone in bed smoking, snoring, watching TV, kicking, pulling the blanket over himself, rustles newspaper, or, say, does not turn off your mobile phone. Often bitter disputes erupt because of the open vent or not completely closed the door to the bedroom, air conditioning included night go radiator. Or, for example, the couple arguing on the hour to have an alarm clock, if they need to go to work at different times.

According to the professor, in many cases, the problem could be solved simply live in different beds. "But the people sitting in the minds of stereotype - says Rosenblatt. It is believed that the couple sleep together so naturally! "In many cases, the couple asleep in bed just by habit, although physical and mental ease it would be better to change this habit.

Experts advise: in bed together for some reason, the couple denied the healthy and full of sleep, it makes sense to try sleeping separately . However, before you make a choice, is to talk with each other and work together to look for compromises. Perhaps the partners agreed to revise its behavior in bed and corrected, - to still sleep together.

Insomnia is stronger medicine

Perhaps the problem is insomnia, which affects millions of people will soon be forgotten like a bad dream. Scientists have come close to the creation of a powerful drug, opening the enzyme responsible for the process of awakening

American scientists have discovered a substance that inhibits sleep, and came to the logical conclusion that blocking production of the enzyme, it is theoretically possible to solve the problem   insomnia That is relevant to 40% of the inhabitants of our planet. It gives hope for the creation of new, revolutionary methods of struggle for a healthy sleep.

"The phase of sleep is one of the most mysterious in the human mind, - said study author Dr. Subimal Dutta, whose work was published in Journal of Neuroscience. - It is governed by a complex balance between biological processes, the environment and behavior, but we do not fully understand the mechanisms involved in this regulation. The ultimate goal of my research was a better understanding of how sleep is regulated at the cellular level, which could eventually lead to the elucidation of the causes of many disorders of sleep and create new ways treatment of insomnia ".

According to Dr. Dutta, blocking the enzyme is as a stage of REM (rapid eye movement) and non-REM sleep stage, which is necessary in order for us to stay healthy. "Existing treatments for insomnia and other sleep disorders, as a rule, do not reach the ideal result, causing a variety of undesirable side effects, - says Dutta. - We need a more specific therapy."

Gambling will soon medicate

Scientists from Cambridge University figured out what part of the brain responsible for the development of unhealthy craving for gambling. In the future, this discovery can be used as the basis the creation of new medical treatments for gambling.

Treatment of gambling addiction

Currently treatment gambling   It conducted mainly by psychologists. In the West the victims of this dependence attend group therapy sessions, which are divided their stories with other similar gambling and try to overcome the cravings roulette machines. Several researchers have noted success in hypnosis treatment gambling But this method can only be among people who respond well to hypnosis, and their less than 50%.

Scientists from Cambridge University made a discovery, which may become the basis for development of medicines against gambling. In the experiment, they asked for victims different brain injuries, as well as healthy people play on the machines and roulette computer. It turned out that people with gipereaktivnoy insular lobes in the literal sense is disconnected common sense when they can not win, so they tend to play again and again.
