Cancer transplantation. The disease cancer is a scare and those who have been there will tell you that better prevention than cure

Cancer transplantation: Eliminating substance abuse

In case of malignancies, we are using patented methods of treatment with stem cells. These methods have proved their efficacy, and have been approved by the Ministry of Health on April 20, 1999 and have been recommended for use in clinical practice. And according to the experts at AWAREmed health and wellness resource center under doctor Dalal Akoury MD Cancer transplantation of fetal stem cells is possible at all stages of oncological diseases like for instance:

If surgery (tumor removal) cannot be started due to such complications as anemia, weakness, wasting, thrombocytopenia, depression, etc., transplantation of fetal stem cells prior to the tumor removal operation provides for the best preparation of the patient to surgery and best tolerability of the latter; it also accelerates the postoperative wound healing process, minimizes consequences and complications of anesthesia, and reduces the duration of the post-surgery rehabilitation period that allows for more rapid continuation of comprehensive treatment. In patients treated with the method of fetal stem cell transplantation prior to the operation, best tolerability of chemotherapy courses had been observed. Probability of metastatic process development diminishes as a result of increased anti-tumor immunity.

During the course of chemotherapy and radiotherapy (irradiation)

In case of such complications as leukopenia, agranulocytosis, thrombocytopenia, anemia, hepatitis, enteropathy, wasting, depression, alopecia, etc., transplantation of fetal stem cells promotes rapid (5 to 7 days) restoration of peripheral blood parameters after chemotherapy, improvement of the overall condition, and helps prevent complications. Transplantation of fetal stem cells provides an opportunity for carrying out more large-scale and intensive chemotherapy with a minimum risk without violating its timeframe.

Cancer transplantation: After chemotherapy and radiotherapy (irradiation)

Transplantation of fetal stem cells is instrumental in restoring anti-tumor immunity and haemopoesis; it contributes to improvement of patient’s overall condition, decrease in weakness, as well as to improvement of their psycho-emotional status and quality of life.

Cancer transplantation: Post-transplantation effects

Solid experience in cancer treatment allowed us to distinguish two stages in post-transplantation period that are different in time of development and clinical manifestations.

The first stage lasts for about one month and is characterized by emergence of early clinical symptoms that develop within a few hours after transplantation of fetal stem cells. We have described the early post-transplantation improvement syndrome: improvement in overall condition and appetite, decline in body temperature, diminishing weakness and sweating, restoration of self-care ability and increase in performance. This syndrome mostly occurs in patients with symptoms of severe intoxication and is often observed in patients with severe clinical course of the disease.

Also, a syndrome of psycho-functional changes is observed: reduction of somatic depression, improvement of emotional status, cognitive abilities, memory, and conative component.

The second stage of cell effect begins within one to two months after transplantation. It is related to reduced clinical manifestations of the disease and is characterized by stabilization of haemopoesis, improvement of the immunological profile, reduction of inflammatory effects, elevation of Karnovsky index, and improved quality of life.

Finally, doctor Akoury reiterates that stem cell therapy contributes to formation of anti-tumor immunity; that can be used for preventing oncological diseases, as well as avoiding relapse and metastatic process. But even before we get there, most of the cancerous complications are as a result of substance abuse. This means that if we were to deal the prevention of substance abuse, cancer complications will be reduced greatly. Therefore as you consider taking the above treatment course, we also want to encourage you to talk to us about the major cause of cancer (drug addiction) so that we can fight the problem from all angles.

Deep wrinkles elimination with the right mindset towards healthy living

Deep wrinkles elimination: Health and revenue from cigarette production

Smoking tobacco is not only addictive but also life threatening. Produces of this substance are aware of the dangers and will do what it takes to justify their advertisement to make more sales. Nonetheless, revenue accruing from the deadliest product won’t just let this commodity be listed under the illicit drugs. I ask why spend heavily on the medication of illness associated with smoking when all we need is to have it listed as an illegality? Is there anything valuable more than good health? This is what the authorities are insinuating. With that insinuation, we want to focus our discussion on deep wrinkles elimination. We’re not ignorant of the many effects of smoking.

She will be giving us insight about smoking cigarettes which is not just harmful to the skin but also very addictive and not easy to stop.

Being addictive as it is there are many health concerns that are associated with smoking. Many people in the society may not be keen about is the development of smoking wrinkles. These wrinkles have been associated with lines that form around the mouth, yet smoking is known to cause wrinkles around the entire face and even to the whole body. Smoking wrinkles are caused by a number of factors; not just the squeezing of the lips to breathe in smoke from a cigarette. Doctor Akoury says that smoking wrinkles can be prevented by quitting. And it is important to understand the facts behind formation, effects and causes of smoking wrinkles. Why we need to know this is because unlike wrinkles caused by aging skin, the moment smoking wrinkles sets in, eliminating them can be very difficult if not impossible. This becomes harder to treat because the content of tobacco smoke can cause irreversible damage to skin tissue on a cellular level. That is why talking to doctor Akoury on the best way to handle this situation would be very important. You can schedule for an appointment with her today and your skin health will never be the same again.

Deep wrinkles elimination: Causes of wrinkles

Much as smoking is known to form several wrinkles on the skin, the most evident one is that which is formed around the eyes. This is formed from the consistent rhythmic expressions made while smoking. Such expressions causes the collagen to weaken in the affected areas resulting in skin sagging. Collagen is the natural protein in your skin enabling the skin to keeps it elasticity and firmness. As we age, the production of collagens reduces resulting in the formation of wrinkles.

When you smoke you create repetitive creasing motions to inhale the smoke, in the process creases begin to form around your mouth and under your nose gradually and invisibly at the beginning, just in the same way wrinkles develops when you’re constantly exposed to the scorching sun. It is important to note that while these wrinkles form over time, the effects and causes of smoking wrinkles begin to appear at a more rapid pace than crow’s feet and other types of wrinkles because of the toxins that contained in cigarettes. Chemicals like benzene and carbon monoxide deplete skin cells of essential nutrients, and constrict blood vessels in the skin. Doctor Akoury says that besides what you already know, toxins in cigarette smoke also deplete the skin of vital moisture which makes it drier and more prone to premature aging. Smoking wrinkles usually deepen quickly once they are formed, giving the skin around the mouth a puckered, saggy appearance. Now that you know where to get help from, why allow saggy appearance on your face? Be on the safe side of life and schedule for that appointment with the experts (Dr. Akoury) today.

Controlling blood pressure

Controlling blood pressure

Controlling blood pressure effectively will involve being physically active

Controlling blood pressure: Eating healthy diet

If you want to succeed in controlling blood pressure, you need to be mindful of what you’re eating. Experts at AWAREmed health and wellness resource center under the leadership of doctor Dalal Akoury MD agrees that foods rich in whole grains, fruits, vegetables and low-fat dairy products and skimps on saturated fat and cholesterol can be very helpful in lowering your blood pressure by up to 14 mm Hg. We appreciate that it isn’t easy to change your eating habits all over sudden; the following suggestions can help you cope:

Keep a food diary – having a record of what you eat is very important, it can shed surprising light on your true eating habits. Keenly observe what you eat, to what quantity, when you eat and why.

Consider boosting potassium – Potassium can lessen the effects of sodium on blood pressure. The best source of potassium is food, like fruits and vegetables, rather than supplements. This is one area where doctor Akoury will advise about the potassium level that’s best for you.

Be a smart shopper – Make a shopping list before heading to the supermarket to avoid picking up junk food. Read food labels when you shop and stick to your healthy-eating plan when you’re dining out, too.

Controlling blood pressure: Reducing sodium in your diet

Sodium can be very unhealthy in this line and its reduction is important. Take note that even a small reduction of sodium in your diet can reduce blood pressure significantly (by 2 to 8 mm Hg). The recommendations for reducing sodium are:

  • Limit sodium to 2,300 milligrams (mg) a day or less.
  • A lower sodium level 1,500 mg a day or less — is appropriate for people 51 years of age or older, and individuals of any age who are African-American or who have high blood pressure, diabetes or chronic kidney disease.

The following guide lines will be helpful in decreasing sodium in your diet:

Track how much salt is in your diet – Keep a food diary to estimate how much sodium is in what you eat and drink each day.

Read food labels – If possible, choose low-sodium alternatives of the foods and beverages you normally buy.

Eat fewer processed foods – Potato chips, frozen dinners, bacon and processed lunch meats are high in sodium.

Don’t add salt – Just 1 level teaspoon of salt has 2,300 mg of sodium. Use herbs or spices, rather than salt, to add more flavor to your foods.

Ease into it – If you don’t feel like you can drastically reduce the sodium in your diet suddenly, cut back gradually. Your palate will adjust over time.

Controlling blood pressure: Limit your alcohol consumption

Finally, alcohol can be both good and bad for your health. In small amounts, it can potentially lower your blood pressure by 2 to 4 mm Hg. Nonetheless, that protective effect will be lost if you drink too much alcohol. Because of the addictiveness of alcohol, one shouldn’t start drinking as a way to lower your blood pressure if you’ve not been drinking. There’s more potential harm than benefit to drinking alcohol. Finally, the key of unlocking the problem of blood pressure rest in losing weight. This is what the experts at AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center does best. All you need to start the journey of recovery is to schedule an appointment with doctor Akoury today.

Diagnosing Eczema and timely treatment

Diagnosing Eczema

Diagnosing Eczema and timely treatment for the delivery of good skin complexion

Diagnosing Eczema and timely treatment: Medications available

Eczema is a medical condition in which portions of skin become rough and inflamed. Normally it is also accompanied with blisters that cause itching and bleeding. Sometimes resulting from a reaction to irritation (eczematous dermatitis) but more typically having no obvious external cause. From the definition you can visualize the impact this medical condition will have on your the general beauty of your skin. That explains why diagnosing eczema early is important. Whenever the skin becomes rough and inflamed, beauty takes the most available flight out of that body leaving an ugly looking skin structure. It is imperative that we take corrective measures to ensure that all the flight bookings are canceled and beauty is retained. For us to achieve this, we must be knowledgeable of all the factors that cause skin to look ugly. Like for instance eczema described above. Focusing on diagnosing eczema and treatment for a glowing skin, doctor Dalal Akoury MD President and founder of AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center will take us through the discussion detailing on all the possible treatments procedures available.

At the moment eczema diagnosis is based on the doctor’s observation of individual’s case. Meaning that the doctor, will interrogate you about the kind of symptoms you’re seeing and the available medical history including your family history of rashes and other allergy-related medical condition like asthma and high fever. These medical histories are what the doctor will use to come up with an eczema diagnosis and treatment for a glowing skin since because there is no single test to diagnose eczema. That further explain why you shouldn’t wait in scheduling an appointment with doctor Akoury now.

Diagnosis Eczema and timely treatment: Treatment for eczema

Having attained the eczema diagnosis treatment begins immediately. It must be noted that a good skin care is key in controlling eczema. Therefore for effective treatment of eczema, the majority of people will only need modification of their skin care routine and making a few lifestyle changes while those with more severe eczema may need to take medications to control their symptoms. The following are some of the non-drug treatments for eczema:

Mild soap and moisturizer – It’s best to use a mild soap or soap substitute that won’t dry your skin. There are several brands of gentle soaps available at the drugstore, however, brand names can be recommended by your doctor or pharmacist. Nonetheless, a good moisturizer either in cream, lotion, or ointment forms will help conserve the skin’s natural moisture and should be applied immediately after a shower or bath as well as one other time each day. Besides these certain individuals with severe eczema may benefit from taking baths with a small unit of bleach dropped to the water. The bleach, in this case, will help in killing bacteria living on the skin of people with eczema.

Short, warm showers – People with eczema should avoid taking very hot or very long showers or baths, which can dry out your skin.

Reduce stress – Like I have said before, stress is one of the greatest enemies of a beautiful skin. Therefore make all the necessary arrangements to reduce stress as humanly possible by getting regular exercise and setting aside time to relax. Medications and other treatments for eczema include:

  • Hydrocortisone – Over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream or ointment may help mild eczema. Prescription steroid cream may be needed for more severe eczema.
  • Antihistamines – Oral antihistamines such as Benadryl are available over-the-counter and may help relieve symptoms. Some of these cause drowsiness, which may be of benefit if nighttime itching is a problem.
  • Ultraviolet light therapy – People with very severe eczema may benefit from therapy using ultraviolet light under the strict advice of the skincare professional.
  • Immunosuppressant – Drugs that suppress the immune system such as cyclosporine, azathioprine, or methotrexate, can also be administered particularly when other treatments have failed.
  • Immunomodulators – This type of medicated cream helps treat eczema by controlling inflammation and reducing the immune system reactions.
