Plastic Surgery for the Greatest Generation

Posted by Prakash Binu on April 28, 2012 at 8:20 AM Comments comments (0)

With current advances in medical science, Americans lives have been extended to longer than at any time in history. In fact, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the life expectancy for the average American is nearly 79 years. This increase in age raises new questions concerning choices for beauty and specifically plastic surgery.

Perhaps one of the most interesting aspects about the increase in life expectancy is that studies have shown that people are not only living longer but also living better. Furthermore, people are remaining active longer as well. During even these trying economic times, people over the age of 55 are financially well of and staying active into their twilight years. What professional plastic surgeons in Southern California's famous Orange County are seeing more of is that older patients are opting for surgical procedures to look great.

Most doctors tell their patients that, while age minimums for plastic surgery are important there is really no upper age limit for many popular procedures. Many Baby-Boomers choose to have plastic surgery well into their 70s and 80s. While surgery will always carry inherent risks, patients who are in their 60s or 70s should consider the effects of anesthesia. These concerns will usually be addressed in a thorough initial consultation with the doctor. Because, Dr. Sadati puts patient safety first; he recommends that older patients get medically cleared before any plastic surgery.

Medical clearance is important because of the thorough nature of the exam and pre-operative screening. If they make it through this process they should be able to handle any cosmetic procedure. Dr Sadati has been seeing a wider variety of aged patients wishing to have cosmetic procedures. When people tend to live longer, they tend to want to look their best even that means surgically shaving off a few years.

According to statistics from leading industry association, the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), more than 675,000 individuals over the age of 65 underwent surgical and non-invasive cosmetic procedures in 2010. This accounts for more than seven percent of the total procedures performed that year. Like any patient seeking plastic surgery, seniors are opting for some of the most popular surgeries including: facelifts, blepharoplasty, liposuction, transdermal fillers, and laser skin resurfacing.

In Orange County and elsewhere, evidence of seniors choosing plastic surgery is everywhere. Even many celebrities in their golden years are having work done. Big brand names such as Kenny Rogers, Burt Reynolds, and Joan Rivers have gone to great lengths to look younger. Except for complications that are inherent to the aging process, the risks for plastic surgery among Baby-Boomers are generally the same for the rest of the population. What's more, older patients are in a better position to pay for their procedures than some of their younger counterparts.

Whatever the age of the patients, board certified professionals like the Gallery of Cosmetic Surgery's Dr. Kevin Sadati can make anyone look great.

The Benefits of Protein Supplementation

Every day, one must consume a sufficient amount of protein. This is a nutrient that is essential if you want to have that energy for each day's activities. Other than playing a big part in building your muscles and stronger bones, protein can also repair your cells as well which can fight against certain diseases. However, for many reasons such as lifestyle, lack of enough money to buy foods rich in protein, hectic schedule and so many others, many people today no longer consumes the right amount of protein needed by the body. This is when the protein supplements can be helpful. There are so many protein supplement benefits and these are not just limited to the people who are trying build muscles. Protein supplement benefits can also be useful to those who just are very active as well.

One of the most sought after protein supplement benefits is its ability to rapidly increase lean muscles mass. This is the main reason why the common users of protein supplements are athletes and bodybuilders. Although they can get protein from natural sources such as meat, egg and milk products, they would have leaner and bigger muscles in a shorter time if they used protein supplements. The more protein they consume, the faster they will build muscles. As a result, they would get more than the average amount of energy. This is used not only for the activities that they do on a daily basis. They would also have more of that extra energy to do intense workouts that help them build stronger and leaner muscles at the same time.

Of course, your muscles would surely need help after lifting weights. Another of the numerous protein supplement benefits is to heal those muscles that were worn out after the workout. Because of this, you do not have to bear muscle soreness for several days. It would also help you to be prepared sooner for another day of weight lifting so you would start building more muscle

ADHD - Making Strides with the International Brain Research Foundation

Posted by Prakash Binu on March 11, 2012 at 11:45 PM Comments comments (0)

It is not uncommon for students to become distracted and bored in school especially when the subject or lecture is not of high interest. However, when these behaviors significantly interfere with academic performance or result in conduct problems, parents and teachers become frustrated. Often such students appear or seem bright enough to master the educational material, so it is not uncommon that they are mischaracterized as lazy, oppositional, or underachieving.

In such cases, the possibility of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder or ADHDshould be investigated. The International Brain Research Foundation is committed to developing improved diagnostic techniques and treatment options for this common, puzzling condition.

Philip A. DeFina, PhD, Chief Scientific Officer and Chief Executive Officer of IBRF describes that "ADHD is diagnosed in an estimated 3% to 10% of children according to various sources worldwide." There are three types of ADHD: primarily inattentive; primarily hyperactive; combination of both. ADHD appears early in life, usually prior to the age of seven, although it may not be identified until many years later, "especially if the case is mild, or the child is bright enough that she or he is able to compensate until the later school grades, when the workload is greater and it is harder to keep up," DeFina adds.

Hallmark symptoms of ADHD may include, but are not limited to: inattention, loss of focus or concentration, forgetfulness (like homework and books), difficulty remembering multistep commands, daydreaming, problems learning new information, difficulties making transitions or being flexible, "not listening", problems following instructions, being easily bored, difficulty staying on task or working independently, missing details, fidgetiness, talkativeness, and impatience.

DeFina stresses that it is important to identify the student with ADHD early for a number of reasons. First, students who experience ADHD miss details and take longer than expected to learn material; thus as they pass through grades in school and years go by, they also miss more and more information and may fall behind. Second, these students may try very hard in their efforts to learn, but when they don't produce the results expected, others may label them as lazy or oppositional or not trying hard enough. These labels may erroneously follow them through school resulting in feeling demoralized and misunderstood. It is not uncommon for such students to experience low self-esteem and a negative self-image.

Unfortunately, ADHD treatment options have been limited. Medication and behavioral treatments are the most utilized at this time. However, there are a number of tools that are showing promise, and gathering support with scientific work sponsored by the International Brain Research Foundation. Currently, the International Brain Research Foundation is developing protocols to better diagnose ADHD through neuroimaging and brain wave mapping. It has also developed algorithms, or formulas, to tailor neurofeedback treatments to the student. Neurofeedback is a noninvasive tool that allows doctors to help the child "normalize" his or her brainwaves through thinking exercises. The idea is that if a dysfunctional pattern of brain waves ischanged to look more normal, then thought processes, which include attention and concentration, will also become more normal and more under control.

DeFina explains, "We at IBRF are committed to providing students and their parents with possible complementary options for this sometimes debilitating disorder. Our work and research although still in its preliminary stages offers hope and support to many."

Boditronics Launches New Packaging on All Nutritional Supplements

Posted by Prakash Binu on February 22, 2012 at 8:10 AM Comments comments (0)

Whey ProteinBoditronics brand gets a new look with its packaging style now matching the ultra high standards of the products inside. This leading supplier of nutritional supplements just launches new bespoke Gloss PET tubs and PP Glassine labels to mark the quality of products they supply customers. The company has been a prominent supplier of 'Whey protein' made supplements throughout various parts of the world.

It is a fast paced life style out there these days and not surprisingly, a quick result is what is expected out of anything being done. In the world of fitness and Body building though, there is no short cut to achieve quick results. "No pain, no gain" as the famous sayings goes, suits perfectly well for Body building. However, there are a few ways in which the process can be quickened. And Whey Protein has proven to be the best nutritional support for anyone working on building his body.

With literally low level of fat and cholesterol and with as high as 80% protein by weight, Whey protein is highly instrumental in strengthening the tissues and subsequently building the muscles.

To make Whey protein an easily consumable product, it has been transformed into protein powder and to make it pleasant to consume, fruit flavors are added to it. Quite a few flavors like Chocolate, Vanilla, etc. are now available these days. Unlike other protein that are consumed for general health, Whey protein can be termed as a Bodybuilding protein as it helps to a large extent to strengthen the muscles and provides all the nutrients to build the stamina for heavy workouts.

As a thumb rule, body builders are expected to consume 1.5gms of Whey protein for every pound of his body weight. Rather than consuming the required proteins in one go, it would also be a good idea to have it in 3 or 4 servings a day. This way, it keeps the body system active and provides the required support while performing heavy workouts in the Gym.

"We DON'T sell miracle products. Our products are top quality, yes…in fact, we truly believe that they are amongst the best if not the best on the market and used correctly they will certainly help you achieve your goals", quotes Mr. Simon Phillips, Managing Director of Boditronics Ltd.

After years of research and development, Boditronics now have wide variety of supplements including the Protein powders with various flavors. The new tubs developed by the company range for 1200ml capacity through 2250ml , 4000ml and 6000ml. Photographs of all the new tubs and labels are available for retailers and stockists by visiting www.boditronics.co.uk or by emailing [email protected]

Is the Raspberry Ketone the next big thing in weight loss?

Posted by Prakash Binu on February 20, 2012 at 1:15 AM Comments comments (0)

Raspberry KetoneIt is a depressing thought that people are getting fatter almost everywhere in the world.

The World Health Organization predicts there will be 2.3 billion overweight adults in the world by 2015 and more than 700 million of them will be obese.

In a move to help improve those statistics, the renowned Dr Mehmet Oz, one of the most respected tv doctors in the USA has recently endorsed the Raspberry Ketone as the #1 Fat Burner to look out for this year.

Raspberry Ketone, found in red raspberries has been found in clinical trials to work on the natural adiponectin production, which has a direct impact on fatty acid catabolism, and glucose regulation. In other words, the Raspberry Ketone helps boost metabolism and helps promote weight loss by working on glucose regulation.

Other studies have found that when combined with African mango extract, it's effectiveness is increased for even more potent weight loss.

You can find the video of the show here: http://www.doctoroz.com/videos/miracle-fat-burner-bottle

Dr Oz is an authority in health and weight loss, and his show has created a huge surge in men and women searching for Raspberry Ketone supplements.

Unfortunately finding good Raspberry Ketone supplements can be a case of trial and error states Chris from the leading UK slimming site slimmingpillsreviewed in their review.

For those looking to purchase the best Raspberry Ketone supplement on the market, slimming pills reviewed has highlighted Raspberry Ketone Plus as being the most effective. You can buy it exclusively online here from the Evolution Slimming website.

How to Choose the Right Adult Incontinence Products

Posted by Prakash Binu on February 17, 2012 at 7:20 AM Comments comments (0)

Adult DiapersAdult incontinence products, used to manage the condition of incontinence in adults, generally consist of adult diapers of various types – cloth diapers or disposable ones, adult pull ups or adult briefs. They are available in a range of prices and entail a number of options to suit the needs and the pocket of almost anyone.

Whether you need adult incontinence products for your own use or for someone in your family, you have several options to consider. First, you need to decide what type of adult diaper you want – a reusable cloth diaper, or a supply of disposable ones made of synthetic material. And no, this is not an issue where you should consider environment: the disposable diapers are best for almost everybody. In addition to being convenient, they also reduce the chances of developing skin rashes due to the moisture absorbing wicks they have, and also as they don’t require one to wear plastic pants.

Secondly, you have to decide between an adult pull up and adult brief. Adult pull ups are designed to step into and pulled up, just like a pair of underwear. You should prefer these again because they are more convenient and retain more dignity for the aged as they don’t need to lie down to wear them, or take them off. However, in case the wearer is not active enough, the adult briefs, which are more like diapers, may be considered.

Finally, you have to consider your absorbency needs. For this, you need to take into account the severity of the problem, the size of the wearer, and the amount of his or her liquid intake. In case, any or all three of these indicators are on the higher side, you need to choose an adult diaper with a high absorbency rating. For a choice of these or any other type of adult incontinence supplies, you can visit http://www.goldenagemedical.com.
