			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are various people around the globe who are facing the problem of a dreadful disease called high blood pressure. Almost everyone has heard this name but few of us know the basic fact for the occurrence. The basic reason of high blood pressure is the level of cholesterol. If the level of cholesterol is high then you will face this problem. These cholesterol blocks the way of the proper blood flow within the body due to which the pressure of blood increases. The second main reason is the high level of stress. It is the stress which gives a great harm to the body. We usually face the issue of stress due to mismanagement of our work. If we organize the way we work then it will give us mental satisfaction and we can stay away from stress. The high level of stress gives you the high level of blood pressure and later on the consequences would be the heart attack. There are so many people in the world who are living with this outrageous disease of high blood pressure and they are not even aware about it.</p>
<p>The treatment is required within the time period else it can be life threatening. Genetic reason is also one of the primary reasons for this disease. The way we live our life also plays a significant role for high blood pressure. An unhealthy life style gives this disease. It is important to live a disciplined life so that we can stay away from this horrible disease.</p>

</script></p> <p>The basic and foremost symptom is the shortness of breath. This is because of the excessive fluid in the lungs. Fatigue is also another symptom. This happens when the heart pumps at a lower rate, the muscles and other parts of the body are not able to get proper blood supply. This results to lack of oxygen. The symptoms do not build over quickly. Heart tries to cope up with all these issues and adjust for the extreme conditions. But when it is not able to cope up, heart failure occurs.</p>
<p><span>A doctor can easily identify the risk of heart failures through his stethoscope. This instrument can pick up the abnormal sound beats in the heart. The physician can listen to a patient breathe which may be indicative for the heart failure. If he is not conclusive of this, he may recommend a laboratory test like electrocardiogram which will record the electrical activity of a patient’s heartbeat. Erroneous sound waves will be recorded as images which reveal about the abnormal heart size, shape. In some cases, chest x ray is also taken.</span></p>
<p><span> The disease can be diagnosed by identifying the causes. In case of excessive workload which caused heart failure, it can be cured by eating good food and treating for anemia. Any defects in heart value can be surgically corrected. Patients can minimize the risk of heart failure by quitting smoking, excessive drinking and becoming hyper sensitive. A balanced blood pressure level must be maintained. There are various medications available in the long term. Heart attacks may be life threatening at times. In such cases, heart transplantation is the only key. Researchers say that some patients improve their health conditions while waiting for a donor and thus can be successfully removed from the transplant list. Heart is an important organ for the human lives to sustain. Taking care of heart is very important and do not be playful in this issue. Take utmost concern for your health.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A woman’s life will be fulfilled when she delivers a baby. For most women, first time pregnancy would bring in fears which will overcome the happiness. Worries and pregnancy go hand in hand. But if proper care is taken at the time of pregnancy, one can avoid several problems. A healthy lifestyle is the key for a safe pregnancy. There are more issues concerned for the mothers on various matters such as the health of the baby, position of baby, labor pain, becoming tired often and much more.</p>
<p>Some precautionary measures have to be taken while pregnancy. One should follow a healthy diet and must be brisk. Should do physical activities to certain extent. One should avoid alcohol during pregnancy and quit smoking. Mothers should have a healthy eating habit as they eat for two. On an average they need 300 calories extra per day. Some special vitamins are needed for both mother and child. Vitamin B is very essential. Periodical tests have to be taken to ensure both are safe. Proper measures have to be taken to avoid any ill health effects for the child. Calcium and Iron are more important. Calcium will help the mother to get more strength for her bones as the baby would take minerals from mother’s bone for its development. Iron helps in carrying oxygen.</p>
<p>One should avoid taking improper medications during pregnancy. Women must consult the doctors on what medicine to be taken. For the baby to be healthy, the mother should be healthy. But very few medicines are tested safe for both. Because scientifically most medications are not tested on pregnant women. Drugs tested on animal fetus may not necessarily demonstrate the same on a woman. Doctors advice pregnant women to exercise at least for 20 minutes thrice in a week. But avoid deep knee bends, touching the toes and other exercises which will risk your tummy. Staying in shape will help in the reduction of labor pain. Ladies must take the advantage of present day technology during pregnancy period and stay healthy.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Imagine the day where you have decided to be the happiest person in this earth and started preparing for your works. But suddenly you get head ache and your vision gets blurred. Your speech becomes slurred and all of a sudden you lose your vision falling to the ground. You wanted to make a yell of noise calling out for help but unable to do that!! Yes. You have been attacked by stroke.</p>
<p>A stroke occurs when the brain cells are dead. When any brain cell does not receive blood and proper nutrients for more than 4 minutes, it may die resulting in the stroke. Brain deaths are so harmful and may even take lives. So one has to be very careful in preventing strokes. Brain cells need blood from which they intake oxygen and the respective nutrients. When there is any blockage in any of these cells, it results in poor circulation of oxygen leading to a stroke. In such cases, blood circulation has to be restored quickly. Ischemic stroke occurs due to the blockage in any of the blood vessels. Hemorrhagic Stroke occurs when the blood cells burst resulting in the death of brain cells. This occurs due to high blood pressure. Some of the symptoms of developing stroke are:</p>
<p>Dizziness<br />
Head ache<br />
Blurred vision<br />
Slurred speech<br />
Loss of balance and falling to ground</p>
<p>The impacts may have a short term and long lasting effects. And it heavily depends on which part of the brain is being affected and the speed with which other brain cells may substitute the work. The common and severe impact is the result of paralysis. Some may result in the problem of cognitive thinking. If the front part of brain is affected, persons will give extreme reactions and succumbed to emotional impacts. It may be hereditary for some to encounter with stroke. But normally lifestyle plays a vital role. Persons with diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease must be careful and do regular exercises to keep their body health.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Learning disabilities are one of the disabilities which cannot be obviously seen on others. It may not leave visible signs for others. But one has to carefully listen to the person with such disorder to understand the facts. Learning disability is a one which normally affects the way people interpret or their inability to interpret things and having a disturbed communication with the environment. One cannot communicate to the environment on what he thinks and the same can be applied while writing. This may affect their life seriously.</p>
<p>The learning disorder might be difficult to be subjected for treatment. Primarily it is difficult to identify such disorders unless you consult your physician. There can be so many reasons and causes. Hence it is difficult to pinpoint one cause and treat for that. The society has got a bigger impact on this issue. Therefore tailor made treatments are not available. The very first obvious sign while encountering problem will be in speech and writing. They cannot be expressive or will not find apt words while speaking. And for some, their brain will not function properly and have poor reception and will be bad in understanding things. They cannot grasp any information quickly. Their brain finds it difficult to match the nerves when they are told to do multi tasking. For example, if they have to study and simultaneously listen to music, they find it impossible to do so.</p>
<p>The worst effect of learning disabilities is that it will have an impact on other actions also. For example, the problem in understanding will have an impact while communicating the same with others. One kind of learning disability is that children may not be able to concentrate in the class. They cannot concentrate at a stretch for more than few minutes. This may lead to hyper activity among some cases. Adults may find it difficult to organize events due to lack of concentration and focused thinking. Also hyper activity will lead to restlessness which may provoke to do harmful things at times. Hence proper consultation must be done to cure persons with learning disabilities.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>High blood pressure is hypertension. Normally the heart pumps blood through arteries. The blood pressure tells us about the force with which it forces the blood on the walls of arteries. The pressure is high when it pumps out blood and lowers when heart is at rest between the beats. The rate between the two for a normal man is termed as 120/80.</p>
<p>Blood pressure normally increases when we do activities like running, jumping which involves physical activities and lowers while sleeping. But some people tend to have a high blood pressure even when they are normal. During the adult age, men have higher blood pressure and the reverse becomes true when they become older. The hereditary factors also play a vital role. If the grand parents and parents had blood pressure, then you are more likely to get it.</p>
<p>The impacts of high blood pressure are so bad. Most of the times, it will lead to heart attacks, stroke, kidney damage. When the arteries carrying blood are being blocked, then less blood is transported which means there is a scarcity of oxygen. Due to lack of oxygen, heart attacks occur. Kidney helps in filtering the unwanted substances from blood. Since the blood vessels are being blocked, the function of kidney is arrested leading to kidney failure.</p>
<p>The primary or essential blood pressure cannot be controlled or cured. But the secondary blood pressure like which are caused due to pregnancy, use of birth control pills, hormonal abnormalities can be cured if the cause is identified and stopped. It is highly essential to take preventive measures to lower the blood pressure. Some of them are:</p>
<p>Do not add too much salt content<br />
Maintain a healthy diet and weight<br />
Be active physically</p>
<p>By following these tips, am sure one can lower the risk of having high blood pressure. It is good to have a healthy diet and nutritious content in a balanced way.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Everybody needs sleep for the normal functioning of the body. There are 4 stages of sleep. Stage 1 involves the relaxation of muscles and the person can be easily awakened. Stage 2 is where the brain starts relaxing. Stage 3 and 4 involves deep sleep. The total body begins its relaxation now. Some people are deprived of sleep and many may have sleeping disorders. These are because of the irregular habits one may have. Some of the disorders are:</p>
<p>Sleep Apnea: This is the problem due to breathing problems. Some times there may be a pause in breathing due to the stoppage of air flow in the upper throat. This may prove fatal for the patient. It leads to less sleep at nights and more sleepy during the day time. It also leads to irritability, sexual dysfunction and much more problems.</p>
<p>Insomnia: This is a common disorder found in older age population. This leads to sleepless nights day after another. Hence people tend to feel sleepy during day times and may sleep heavily even when they do any jobs. This is bad and will lead to many harmful effects.</p>
<p>Snoring: This is yet again a common problem found mostly in men. This may also because of apnea. Proper consultation must be taken because this disturbs the persons sleeping the same room.</p>
<p>Terror dreams: There is no person in this world without dreams. Our wild imaginations and fantasies take up the form of dreams. Some may get terrific dreams because of any horrible incidents that they encountered. The sub conscious mind thinks about it and gives a terrific reaction. The nightmares can be a disturbing factor while sleeping and often wakes you up.</p>
<p>Waking up : This often happens in the older age persons. 50% of men and women suffer from this problem. They merely lose the stage 4 sleep of deep sleep. Less stress and a healthy body can overcome this problem to certain extent at this age.</p>
<p>Sleeping is very important for the body to function. If you find any sleeping disorder, it is advised to consult your physician as soon as possible. Because prolonged sleeping disorders will spoil your health.</p>
