Health Products (Introduction)

noreply@blogger.com (Boyon) — Sat, 23 Jul 2011 18:26:00 +0000

Health products is a product that support one self to be healthy. Nowadays, there are so many health products that can be found in the market. Why? I am not really sure about that. But for me, I think it's because they want to help us. Or maybe they want to be rich. Who knows?
In the next posts, I am going to review some of the biggest health product companies in the world.

Simplicity

noreply@blogger.com (Boyon) — Fri, 14 May 2010 12:39:00 +0000

As I look into my life for the past few months, I realized that there is something missing in it. I try to search for what is missing, and I found it. It was simplicity. The element of simplicity is lacking in my life. Whatever things I do, I have missed to put the simplicity in it.

Here, in this post, I would like to emphasize and share my thoughts that simplicity in life is among the tool that helps us to be healthy or stay healthy (if you are already healthy). It is very common that people nowadays are very busy in their life. They forgot about the things that are really compulsory for their body.

As my mind do the thinking job, I found out this thing. If your body wants to sleep, go and take a sleep. If your body wants some food, go for it, healthy foods will do. If your work or your career demands you to work five hours, then do well in that five hours and let the rest do their job. If your family needs you, be available. And whatever things you do, focus on the objective first, try to reach the objective and put some flower on it. Not too much, but in moderation.

Use simple things around you. Make yourself comfortable. If somethings bothering you, try to look at the cause of it. When you found the cause, try harder to keep in mind that you will not going to do the same thing again, but trying to do the best to leap higher above the things that bothering you in your life. If you feel that this post is to simple, that's because I am in the process of practicing simplicity in my life. Above all, put everything first in God's hand. Surrender everything in Him and He will do the rest!

As the Bible said, "and having food and raiment let us be therewith content." 1 Timothy 6:8 (KJV)

Happy New Year 2010!

Effect of Tobacco Smoke on Non-Smokers

noreply@blogger.com (Boyon) — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 13:16:00 +0000

Is the smoker the only one affected by the tobacco smoke? Unfortunately, No. Children who live with smoking parents have higher heart rates and higher blood pressures and more frequent acute illnesses. Even in a well ventilated room where only a few smoke, a non-smoker during an 8 hour day inhales the equivalent of the smoke from one or more cigarettes. But if the air is heavy with smoke, the amount inhaled may go up to the equivalent of 5 to 10 cigarettes.

Surely we would not want to give our friends and relatives headaches, irritation of their eyes, nose and throat or cause them to cough and wheeze.Never would we want to bring a heart attack or cause serious problems with those who have emphysema, but that is exactly what happens to many non-smokers who are forced to live or work in a smoky atmosphere.

Why Do You Smoke?

noreply@blogger.com (Boyon) — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 12:17:00 +0000

You probably smoked your first cigarette because it was offered by a "friend" and you were urged to smoke to prove something. A sampling of teen-age opinion as to why they smoked brings such replies as, "It makes me feel grown-up." "To prove I am not afraid." "Because my friends do." "Because I was told not to do it."

If you are a smoker, you will remember your first cigarette. It made you quite ill, with dizziness headache and vomiting. This was the effect of the poisons on your body. As you continued to smoke, your nerve cells became tolerant to the poison, and eventually there was created an intense craving for the next cigarette. This forced you to smoke more and more. This craving is produced by the poison, nicotine, which affects the entire body, but especially the sensitive cells of the brain and nervous system. You then have an unnatural urge to smoke every few minutes not because you are nervous, but because your nerve cells, are crying out for the chemical effects of nicotine.

If you are honest with yourself, you will realize that you soon no longer smoke from choice but because you have to. Many young people begin smoking with the intent to smoke only a few cigarettes for two or three years and then stop. This rarely happens, however. The earlier a person begins to smoke, the more intense is the addiction. This explains why so many people smoke in spite of all the information of the harmful effects of smoking.

the best answer to the problem of smoking is prevention. Do not start the habit. If you have it, give it up as early as possible. Your body begins to repair itself of the damage immediately when you stop smoking.

Smoking Is Dangerous To Health

noreply@blogger.com (Boyon) — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 00:20:00 +0000

Smoking is one of the greatest preventable causes of disease in the world today. Hundreds of thousands of people die every year because of diseases related to smoking.

What was thought to be a harmless, interesting custom by those who first smoked several hundred years ago has now changed, since the invention of cigarettes, into death-dealing addiction. As smoking has increased, an alarming increase in the cases of lung cancer has also been noted by doctors in different parts of the world. Today, lung cancer, which used to be rare, is the number one cancer among men in much of the world, including Southeast Asia. It now accounts for 29% of all cancer deaths.

How does smoking harm the body? The act of smoking and the resultant heat in the cigarette produce certain tars and other harmful substances. These are inhaled into the delicate linings of the mouth and bronchial tree of the lungs. Some are absorbed into the blood stream. Nicotine is the most familiar poison in tobacco. The hot, dry smoke contains over 1,000 chemicals, 30 of which are poisonous to the body. Some 16 have been found capable of stimulating the development of cancer. These harmful substances are deposited on lung passages, irritating them and causing a chronic smoker's cough. The harmful effects and hazards are related to the duration of smoking, the amount smoked, and inhaling. It may take 20 years for lung cancer to develop, but if a person begins smoking at the age of 14, he may become ill just when his family and his community need him most.

A smoker does not have to wait for 20 years in order to get the harmful effects in his body. Carbon monoxide, a deadly gas which is present in automobile exhaust fumes, is also present in tobacco smoke. It decrease the oxygen supply to the brain by as much as 15%. When you smoke you impair your mental ability. In a study of a large group of students, it was found that 8% of students with an A average smoked, but 60% of those with D or lower averaged smoked.

A person loses 80% of his night vision when he smokes. This is the reason why airline pilots are advised not to smoke while flying. One cigarette will increase the heart rate by 15 beats per minute. It increases the blood pressure and decreases the function of the lungs.

Smoking mothers are almost twice as likely to give birth to a dead baby as non-smoking mothers. Pregnant women who smoke also produce babies who are on the average 170 gram lighter than those of non-smoking mothers.

But the greatest killing effect of smoking is the damage of the heart. Just a few puffs will greatly increase the heart beat and the blood pressure. In fact, there is hardly a part of the body system which is not adversely affected by the poisons contained in tobacco smoke.

Slavery, Not Freedom

noreply@blogger.com (Boyon) — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 17:48:00 +0000

We have been learning a lot about this marvelous body of ours. We now know that there are basic rules to life and health which, if carefully followed, will assure us happier living. Our body was designed to function smoothly, to keep our feeling comfortable, if we cooperate with these laws.

But these laws do not include harmful chemical and addicting drugs such as are found in tobacco, alcohol, coffee, tea, cola drinks or drugs in pill forms.

But we say, "I want freedom to think and do as I please." Is there freedom without law? No, only chaos. We may not believe the law, but that doesn't change it. We may say, "There is no such a law as gravity," but if we jump from the top of a high-rise apartment, the results of our landing will be the same whether we believe the law of gravity or not. Our body runs by a set of rules built in by its great Designer. Observing these laws isn't a question of sacrifice or restriction. It's just good common sense to feel better and live longer.

We are constantly bombarded with advertising and slogans which offer escape from life's monotony and boredom or discomfort. When we can't sleep, we take a drug. When we can't lose weight, we take a drug. When we have a stomachache from overeating or over drinking, we take a drug. When the party slows down, don't reach for conversation, reach for a drug (alcohol).

Doesn't it make more sense to prevent these conditions? Rather than taking a sleeping pill, crawl into a bath of warm water for 30 minutes or more. Isn't better to miss some sleep than to form the habit of taking sedative drugs? Rather than taking a stomach medicine or a headache pill, why not learn to avoid tension and overeating?

Rather than taking a stimulant such as caffeine to keep us awake, which also ruins our nerves and makes us more tired, irritable and prematurely old, isn't it better to get adequate rest and recreation?

To have the kind of total health we are seeking, we must be in full command of our mental and physical powers at all times. Anything that destroys, perverts, or disturbs our mind is health-destroying. When we numb our brain or alter our thinking with the use of drugs, whether they are legal or illegal, what is the effect? We become less sensitive to our surroundings and our body needs, less aware of the rights and moods of your fellowmen. We are dictated to, not so much by reason, as by the toxic substances we have taken into our body. We are no longer free to think, but are a slave to the stimulant or depressant (sedative) that controls us.

This is not freedom, but the worst kind of slavery.

The patient was propped up against a thick pillow. He wheezed as he spoke. "I'm a bit nervous. My surgery is scheduled for tomorrow morning. I wonder what it will be like living with just one lung."

Every sentence was punctuated with a series of racking coughs. They seemed to tear apart his already thin, fragile-looking body. His tobacco-stained fingers clutched at his chest. Those fingers that held thousands of cigarettes to his mouth had put him into this tragic situation.

Disease never comes without a cause. We invite it by breaking the laws of health. True, our body will stand a terrific amount of abuse, but finally, it rebels.

Create a Vision

noreply@blogger.com (Boyon) — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 08:08:00 +0000

In gaining great health, or striving to win a disease battle, you must create a vision. A vision of what you want you yourself to be. It is simple and easy. What you need to do is just to create a vision of who you want to be, and then live your life into the picture (your vision), as if it were already true. Do not wait until you receive a vision. You create one. In other words, you can make it up. If you think you are healthy, then you are healthy. If you think you are unhealthy, then you are unhealthy. Your subconscious mind will, in an amazing way, create the necessary blueprint to achieve your vision. So, what you might think as a start is...
I am healthy, and I will live my life according to the principles of health!

Which one is you?

noreply@blogger.com (Boyon) — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 15:52:00 +0000

RESENTMENT, HATRED, DEPRESSION, GRIEF, ANXIETY, DISCONTENT, GUILT and DISTRUST
These emotions tend to break down the life forces and to invite decay and death.
OR
COURAGE, HOPE, FAITH, SYMPATHY and LOVE
These emotions promote health and prolong life.

How to Live with Tension and Enjoy It?

noreply@blogger.com (Boyon) — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 16:08:00 +0000

These important principles will help you to control excessive stress and your reaction to it.

When there is too much general stress, when mind and body are equally tired, rest is the answer. But when there is local stress in only one part of the body the answer is diversion. For example, diversion, not rest, is the cure for a tired mind. Fatigue from stress must be relieved by work, exercise, and change. A physical fitness programme of walking, swimming, or hard physical work creates a balance between mental activity and physical activity. There must be a balance between mind and muscle.
Take time off from your work frequently. Several shorter vacations during the year are more valuable than one long vacation. These "mini" vacations can be a long week-end where you and your family get away from the everyday stresses of life.
Don't take work home from the office. Organize your work and your office routine so that you can see the family and devote time entirely to them.
Practice some of the principal that you have read and learned in the previous posts of this blog. Live a balanced life of work, play and rest each day. Avoid chemicals such as tobacco, alcohol, and caffeine. Don't overeat and get adequate sleep at night.
Make decisions when the decision need to be made. Hesitation, indecision, and doubt hurt. We always feel better after a decision is made, even though it may be the wrong decision.
Release your worry. talk to yourself. do not repress or do not explode but control your emotions.
Be social. Take time to visit. One of the best ways to control our emotions and stress is to develop an interest in helping others. Many men and women have found help when they turn their attention to helping someone else. There is no influence more healing than the spring of unselfishness flowing from within.
Work and love it. Achievement is the satisfaction and antidote for stress. When one is happy in his work, he does not look at the time clock.

Control of the Emotions

noreply@blogger.com (Boyon) — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 05:31:00 +0000

As a response to the previous post, I'd really like to state that emotional control is a basic to living a happy life, and becoming a mature person. As you learn to control your emotions, you will be able to tolerate frustrating experiences. Though you can't directly control your feelings, you can control your thoughts and your actions, you dominate your feelings. Discipline yourself to smile; count your blessings, write them down if necessary. Nothing tends more to promote health of body and mind than does a spirit of gratitude and praise.

One of the best way to achieve emotional control is to develop an interest in helping others. Do good to them that hate you. Never carry a grudge. The happiest and best adjusted people live in a world bigger than themselves.

The person who is learning to be mature accepts and adapts to life as it is and makes the most of what he has. He faces problems as they come, one day at a time. He finds joy even in hardships. Life is never perfect for anyone. You'll always find someone worse off than you are. We should change what we can, accept what we cannot change, and pray that God will show us the difference. A mature person does not run away from difficult problems or make excuses for mistakes. Instead he takes his problem to God, who helps him use them as stepping stones to success.

Emotions - Valuable or Destructive?

noreply@blogger.com (Boyon) — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 15:56:00 +0000

On the other hand, positive emotions are a part of a healthy and happy existence. They make life interesting and worth living. Most of the worthwhile experiences in our lives are connected with our emotions. Emotions may protect us and bring us feelings of compassion, pity, and even arouse us to act to change some unpleasant circumstances of others or ourselves. David Livingstone, the famous explorer and missionary to Africa, had strong feelings when he saw the suffering caused by slave trade. These strong feelings were translated into action, and he was to a large extent responsible for ending the slave trade. It is impossible to estimate the impact on the world of the emotional response of thousands of people to the sufferings of Jesus Christ.

Courage, hope, faith, sympathy, love - these emotions promote health and prolong life. A contented mind and cheerful spirit is health to the body, and strength to the mind.

Unfortunately, all of us have experienced unhealthy emotional reactions, such as resentment, hatred, depression, grief, anxiety, discontent, guilt and distrust. These emotions tend to break down the life forces and to invite decay and death.

Examples of Emotional Illness

noreply@blogger.com (Boyon) — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 14:27:00 +0000

Tom, a progressive young business man was often bothered by a heavy feeling across his chest. It was like a tight band around him. He could not breathe freely. Feeling sure he had heart or lung trouble, he went to a clinic in a large city. Much time was spent carefully examining him by many different doctors, but no physical disease was found.

Still sick, Tom returned home. His own family doctor, who had known him for a long time, was aware of the difficulty. He knew that Tom was working in the office of his father, who dominated the business. Tom, who was very capable, was left in an inferior role. Filled with rebellion against his father, he was taking his feelings out on himself. When all this was explained to him, Tom determined, with God's help, to get rid of his bitterness. With the "load" off his chest, he soon felt better.

Mary developed a persistent headache for which there seemed to be no cause. After much careful investigation she became aware of the fact that her headaches began when her sister-in-law, whom she greatly dislikes, had come to stay with her two years previously. This cause inward tension which had to come out somewhere. It came out in the form of a headache. She was an example that the expression, "That person gives me a pain in the neck" or "That person gives me a headache" can actually be true.

Dolly is a young woman who carried a heavy responsibilities at home. She had a sickly mother to care for, and a father who was an alcoholic. While doing her best to maintain the home, she also had to put up a good front to the outside world at her job. Eventually she reacted to the situation. Frequently she was bothered by persistent vomiting. She lost weight and was finally hospitalized.

all examinations of her digestive tract were normal. However, a careful talk with her revealed that the real cause of her problem was her home situation. It was "too much for her to swallow." Her physical symptoms were an expression of what she was unable to put into words or even admit to herself.

CREATION Health

noreply@blogger.com (Boyon) — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 06:13:00 +0000

Two of my friends in Keningau, Sabah has joined the Seminar about CREATION Health in Miri, Sarawak several months ago. I asked them what it is all about and they told me that it is just the same with NEWSTART programme. I am a little confused about it in the beginning. However, after I visited the website of CREATION Health, I was astonished that it is actually a lifestyle transformation programme designed to help people live life to the fullest by focusing on the eight universal principles of whole person health God originally gave at Creation.

CREATION is actually an acronym for;

Choice is the first step toward improved health. Making healthy choices is the key to lifestyle improvement. Research shows that people who believe they have more control over their lives tend to be healthier and live longer.
Rest is both a good night's sleep and taking time to relax. Life's stress and pressures accumulate over time and can create a generalized "dis-ease" with life. Relaxation techniques practiced regularly, can lower blood pressure, change one's mood and reduce stress.
Environment is the external space outside of us but that which affects what happens within us. All of our senses -- sight, smell, sound, touch and taste -- can influence our mood as well as our health, either positively or negatively. Recent research demonstrates not only the importance of our larger environment (air and water quality) to our health, but also our immediate environment (light, sound, aroma and touch).
Activity includes stretching, muscle development and aerobic activity. The goal is to be active physically, mentally and spiritually. Activities should be something you enjoy and will participate in for years to come. Research indicates that an increase in activity translates directly into improved health.
Trust in God speaks to the important relationship between spirituality and healing. Our faith, beliefs and hopes affect our health. Research shows the vital role that belief and expectation have on the final outcome.
Interpersonal Relationships are important to your well-being. Knowing you have the support of others fortifies your resolve and contributes to improved health. Research has demonstrated the importance of support groups and family in recovering from illness.
Outlook colors your perspective on life. Recent research suggests that your attitude influences your health and even impacts the progression of disease.
Nutrition is the fuel that drives the whole system. Take time to evaluate your food intake remembering that even small improvements, done regularly multiply the health benefits many times over. Research has consistently shown the importance of a good diet on your health and energy levels.

If you want to know more about CREATION Health programme, please visit the website at http://www.creationhealth.tv/. It's worth to know about it.

Tension, Can Be Good

noreply@blogger.com (Boyon) — Sun, 14 Jun 2009 10:28:00 +0000

Let me use the word 'he' to help me describe a situation. Okay. He was walking home from his night class, calm and relaxed, enjoying the quiet moonlit evening. His heart was beating quietly about 70 beats a minute. His breathing was slow and regular. He was at peace. Suddenly a large man with a handkerchief around his face rushed out of the shadows toward him. Fear sent an impulse to his brain exciting his autonomic nerves. An alarm reaction flashed out from his brain to all parts of his body. The adrenal glands poured out extra amounts of a powerful hormone called adrenalin, which had widespread effects in his body. His heart beat faster, his blood pressure rose, his breathing speeded up to supply more oxygen, his digestion stopped (it can wait until the crisis passes), the pupils of his eyes got larger in order to see better, and his mind become more active. He was ready for a fight or a flight, whichever was the wiser choice at the moment. This chain of reactions was normal and necessary for him whenever he faced a real danger.

If you then, are awakened at night by a thief in your house, or if you are faced suddenly with a speeding car in the highway, this alarm reaction may save your life. As soon as the danger is past, your body returns to its normal state. However, if the stress is greatly prolonged, you would eventually suffer complete exhaustion. Under extreme condition of stress itself, in an unhealthy person, the person can result in death.

If a person sits at home and allows his mind to think about such things as thieves breaking in or fear of an oncoming disaster or disease, or if he is angry or bitter with another person, his body will go through the same alarm reactions as if he were in actual danger. An excessive and frequent production of these reactions over weeks and months results in harmful effects and produces a set pattern of disturbing sensations. The person is living in an anxiety state. When we become more concerned with our own physical symptoms than with the initial problems, we become anxious and nervous. Keeping the body under continual stress is like running an engine at high speed without let-up. Eventually something has to give. When the body is stressed, all parts are exposed to tension. The part that breaks down happens to be that which is the weakest in that particular person. Neither the body nor the mind can take too much wear in the same place. Thousands are in trouble because the same thought, the same problems, the same fear and frustrations has grown deeper and deeper until the mind becomes unbalanced. Overloaded minds, like overloaded electric circuits, have a way of blowing a fuse.

It is not possible to avoid stress entirely, but it is possible and very important to control your reaction to it. It is the body's faulty reaction to stress which causes the so called "stress disease". Tension does not come from the outside. It is something you produce; therefore you can control it.

What is Stress?

noreply@blogger.com (Boyon) — Fri, 12 Jun 2009 05:10:00 +0000

Are you stress now? Let me tell you about it. Stress is simply the body's reaction the wear and tear of life. Every single activity you engage in, every emotion you feel, whether it is asking the boss for a raise, or trying to complete an assignment, set up stress. The way your body reacts to such stress agents has much to do with your health.

Excessive emotions can be harmful. Anger can become so blinding that it leads to regretted actions. Fear can be so paralyzing that one is powerless to act. Normal body functions are upset by such emotions.

Emotional and mental stress can cause ulcers, asthma, high blood pressure, intestinal diseases, an even arthritis. 75 percent of all illnesses came from disordered emotions. These changes come through the autonomic or automatic nervous system. This is a system whose functions are largely beyond your control.

Your nervous system consist of two main parts known as the voluntary and involuntary (automatic). The voluntary nerves radiating from the brain and spinal cord to the muscles which direct the movement of the limbs, the head, and the trunk. We control them more or less as we wish.

The involuntary nerves act upon the internal organs and muscles, such as the heart, the lungs, the intestines and the arteries. Unlike the voluntary nerves, the involuntary nerves are not under our direct control, but they do respond to our moods and our emotions.

You Are What You Think!

noreply@blogger.com (Boyon) — Thu, 11 Jun 2009 00:55:00 +0000

Hi readers! What sort of day did you have yesterday? Did you feel under "pressure"? Was there a deadline to meet and not enough time to meet it? Did you shout at those under your authority or have quarrel with your boss? Did you get upset because you couldn't find your notes for the coming examination? Did you get home from the office tired and couldn't sleep?

Tension, Good or Bad?
If the answer to most of these questions is "yes", then the chances are that you are suffering from excessive tension or stress. Tension in itself is not bad. It is a desirable nuisance which can be a blessing. Tension relieves boredom and helps you fulfill your goal in life. Tension followed by right action gives you a sense of well-being.

Did you know that there is a tremendously close relationship between your mind and your body? Did you know that your mind can produce disease in your body? The term for this relationship is called psychosomatic. "Psyche" means the mind, and "Soma" means the body. That this relationship has always been present is evident from an ancient writer, who said, "A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones." (Proverbs 17:22, King James Version, KJV).

Did you know that changes are produced in your body by emotions or thoughts?

Here are some persona questions about simple reactions between your mind and body. When you were embarrassed, didn't your face turn red? Doesn't your mouth get dry when you are angry? When you are afraid, are the palms of the hands wet with perspiration?

Emotions are persistent feelings or moods. These may be acute feelings such as rage, horror, agony, excitement, shame, amusement. They may lasts for days or even weeks, such as depression, cheerfulness, anxiety, resentment, or bitterness.

Some emotions heighten levels of activity because they are exciting. Others have a quieting effect. The small boy who jumps up and down, clapping his hands when he learns he is to visit the zoo is an example of the first. Sorrow and grief have the latter effect.

Emotions are triggered by situations or by memory of past events or anticipation of the future. That is why some emotional behavior is so unreasonable.

There is an emotional center of the brain, and nerves from this center go out to every part of the body, thus, emotions have an effect on the way we feel.

Close Relationship Between Mind and Body

noreply@blogger.com (Boyon) — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 01:32:00 +0000

A dead man has a brain. It looks exactly like yours and mine. But he does not have a mind. He cannot think. It is only when a person is alive that he has a mind which can think, decide, choose and act. The real you is found in this most remarkable organ, the human brain.

There is a close relationship between the mind and the body. Thoughts and emotions affect your body. Physical effects and activities have a profound influence on your thinking. The basic reason for good health habits in eating, drinking, exercise, rest, regularity, abstinence from drugs and chemicals, and trust in divine power is to assure you an alert and healthy mind.

What effects can thinking have on your body? Can you control your emotions and prevent anxiety and fear from robbing you of health and making your life empty and miserable? You'll find the answers in the next post. Just stay with me.

The Meaning of Healthy17

noreply@blogger.com (Boyon) — Mon, 08 Jun 2009 18:47:00 +0000

http://healthy17.blogspot.com is my blog address. Healthy17 is the official name of my blog. Why do I chose Healthy17 to be the name of my blog? Recently, a friend of mine asked me the meaning of Healthy17. I then began to think of writing a post to clarify the meaning of my blog's name. Explicitly, Healthy17 can be described clearly like below.
