Avoid Prostate Cancer With Coffee And Exercise

Posted by drg Ardyan Gilang Rahmadhan On 1:26 AM 0 comments

coffee
Two studies indicate that few more cups of coffee and exercising like running that extra mile each day can reduce a man's risk of dying of prostate cancer. Data from the Health Professionals Follow-Up Study show a clear association with both daily activities.

"I wouldn't recommend that people change their coffee-drinking habits based on this study," said Kathryn M. Wilson, a research fellow in epidemiology at the Harvard School of Public Health, and lead author of one report. "But if you like coffee, there is no compelling reason to cut back at this point."

In her study, there were stronger relationship between consumption of six or more cups of coffee a day and reduced risk of aggressive form (down about 41 percent). While there just only a weak relationship with a reduced risk of all forms of prostate cancer, just 19 percent.

Wilson also added that there was a clear relationship between the amount of coffee consumed and prostate cancer risk, the more coffee you drank, the more effect we saw.

She also said that the same reduction was seen for consumption of decaffeinated coffee, so the caffeine in coffee doesn't seem to be the link and it has something to do with insulin and glucose metabolism. "A number of studies have found that coffee is associated with a reduced risk of diabetes," said her.

"At this point, we would just like to confirm whether it exists in different populations," she said. "We hope that this study drives more research so that we really know what is going on."

The other study, a research associate at the Harvard School of Public Health by Stacey A. Kenfield, looked at the levels of physical activity among 2,686 men in the study who were diagnosed with prostate cancer. This study found, as many other studies have, that exercise is good for overall health, with a 35 percent lower death rate for men who reported three or more hours a week of vigorous physical activity, such as jogging, biking, swimming or playing tennis.

Nevertheless, "this is the first study to show an effect of physical activity not only on overall survival, but on prostate cancer survival," she said.

“…I love working out! I started swimming when I was 3 years old. I was a gymnast, a swimmer, a basketball player…To me, working out is literally like eating a meal or drinking water or breathing. If I don’t, I just feel like crap. Not physically, like, Ew, what’s hanging over my pants? But I just feel really ornery. I start punching actors. Not hard—I don’t get mean. I do Krav Maga, which is Israeli martial arts; I do pilates."

And what about her relaxation "workout" time? Hillary also put a fitness element while she try to relax.

“My relaxation has always been my animals—going to the dog park with them, going to the beach. I always try to carve out time in my day to be with them. On the last set I was on, I would just get a bike and ride around the studio with my dogs chasing me. It just gets me out of my head, you know what I mean?”

Teen Health: Too Much Exercise

Posted by drg Ardyan Gilang Rahmadhan On 9:10 PM 1 comments

Everyone knows that exercise could does many great things for your health. It can strengthen your heart and muscles, lower your body fat, and reduce your risk of many diseases. But, too much of a good thing doesn't always good for you.

Experts recommend that teens do some moderate to vigorous physical activity at least 60 minutes every day. Most young people exercise much less than this recommended amount (which also can be a problem for different reasons), but some people - such as athletes - do more than this recommended suggestion.

There are many reasons from young peoples by doing compulsive exercise. They are bombarded with images from advertisers of the ideal body: slim and thin for women; strong and muscular for men. To reach these goals, they sometimes develop eating disorder such as bulimia and anorexia. But some people who grow frustrated with the results from diets alone may overexercise to speed up weight loss.

To be healthy, your body needs exercise and activity. But, it also need rest. To much exercising could lead to injuries like fractures and muscle strains. Compulsive exercise, especially when it is combined with an eating disorder, can cause serious and permanent health problems, and in extreme cases, death.

How do you know that you have a compulsive exercise habit? Try to answer these questions below:
* force yourself to exercise, even if you don't feel well?
* prefer to exercise rather than being with friends?
* become very upset if you miss a workout?
* base the amount you exercise on how much you eat?
* have trouble sitting still because you think you're not burning calories?
* worry that you'll gain weight if you skip exercising for a day?

If the answer to any of these questions is yes, you may have a problem. Don't try to change your body into an unrealistically lean shape. Talk with your doctor, dietitian, coach, athletic trainer, or other adult about what a healthy body weight is for you and how to develop healthy eating and exercise habits.

Lack Of Sleep May Risk Diabetes Risk

Posted by drg Ardyan Gilang Rahmadhan On 2:29 AM 0 comments

Unhealthy aspects of the Westernized lifestyle, such as overeating, combine with inadequate amount of nightly sleep on a recurring basis may increase the development of diabetes, say a new study.

With his colleagues, Dr. Plamen Penev, of the University of Chicago, Illinois, and a senior author of the study, subjected 11 healthy but sedentary middle-aged men and women to two 14-day periods of sedentary living with free access to food and either 5.5 hours or 8.5 hours of sleep each night.

The participants went to sleep later and wake up earlier, resulting their average sleep duration was reduced by about two hours a day (nightly sleep times changed from 8.5 to 5.5 hours).

This condition changed their response to two common sugar tests, which were similar to those seen in people with an increased risk of developing diabetes.

Penev told reuters, "If confirmed by future larger studies, these results would indicate that a healthy lifestyle should include not only healthy eating habits and adequate amounts of physical activity, but also obtaining a sufficient amount of sleep."
