THE SIGNS OF A DETERIORATED BODY UPON THE SPARK OF MIDLIFE

OUCH! Without realizing the winks within the many blinks in your lifetime, you had finally hit the 40 sign. It’s a sign where your body clock began to show deteriorating symptoms of failing, mentally and physically. Medications, supplements, vitamins or even frequent visits to the doctors would become quite a routine in your life. So, are you prepared to face these situations with the right spirit? After all, no one can run away from the early signs of getting old. Through decades of wear and tear to your body parts, the first few signs would be the thinning of bones and cartilages, with related diseases namely osteoporosis, osteomalacia, osteoarthritis, costochondritis and more. Most of time, these signs of deterioration might be due to the deficiency in certain body nutrients.

I guessed age did catch up with me all too soon and it did not spare me from the painful blows as well. Recently, I had regular headaches with lower back pains and stiffen chest muscles, combined with tingling numbness on most of my joints. I suspected it was just another work hazard symptom due to my long hours of sitting down without moving about. I used heat pads, went for body massages, applied therapeutic heat rubs and even consumed paracetamol and ibuprofen as painkillers. However, those were only some temporary relief methods. Moreover, taking too many of those painkillers neither would be good for my body in long runs nor would they be the best solutions to eradicate the source of my pains. What I thought was just a minor case of lumbago ended up with more piercing pains along the spines and more stiffen joints. Through my pulse oximeter, my heart was pumping at 120bpm which is above the norm of 70-90bpm. It felt like I was about to die due to a brutal stroke. Eventually, I forced myself to pay my family doctor a visit. Though I had a clean bill of health without any sign of diabetes, the outcome sounded quite devastating as I was diagnosed with a possible early stage of osteoarthritis, a chronic condition characterized by the breakdown of the joint cartilages.

Through the years, I had somehow put my body joints on too much of mechanical stress during my athletic years and age had slowed down the self repair process. On top of being put on calcium supplements to strengthen my bones, I was also put on OsteSAMIN plus Chondroitin and MECOMIN to rebuild those self-repair deficiencies. The diet supplementary Glucosamine within the compound of the OsteSAMIN would help in influencing cartilage structure and alleviate arthritis while the added diet supplementary Chondroitin Sulphate, from animal cartilage sources, would help in strengthening weak bones, reduces high cholesterol, etc. MECOMIN contains Methylcobalamin, a neurologically-active form of vitamin B12. It helps to protect against neurological diseases and has the ability to regenerate damaged nerves in people, especially diabetics, with peripheral nerve damage.

Since undergoing the prescribed diet supplements, I barely encounter any acute attacks and can now move about freely to work on my projects with ease. It’s the best and simplest solution to osteoarthritis without the need to go through painful operations or collagen injections. These products can be easily accessible through major pharmacy counters throughout Malaysia.

GETTING OLD CAN BE EXPENSIVE WITH NO HELP AROUND

BSNONLINE

As time passes by swiftly by the winks of many blinks, you can actually feel that the body clock is deteriorating much faster than ever each day. Physically and mentally, you would get more illness cruelly hitting hard on you. Your senses would begin to show signs of failing. Your medical bills would hit high on the ceiling. If you are rich, these problems would not be a problem at all as you can seek many alternatives with your richness. The worst scenario would be to be sent to the Home for the Aged to settle all your “inconveniences” by just paying a lump sum of money. Thus, there’s the lack of personal contact with the ones who had undyingly loved you from the start of your birth into the world. All they would get would be a few hours daily of visit from their personal helper.

Unfortunately, a large number of the elderly would not fall into this category of the rich and famous. They have to spend their lifetime earnings to fend for themselves. Medications, supplements, vitamins or even frequent visits to the doctors are not costing any much lesser nowadays. The amount spent in keeping the body in the best of health can be quite a surprise. How great it would be if any member of the family is in the nursing line. He or she could at least have the necessary experiences in caring and nursing any elderly members in the family within the best of their knowledge.

As a Registered Nurse (RN), one would provide scientific, psychological, and technological knowledge in the care of patients and/or families in many health care settings. It would even be better if one were to possess a B.Sc (Nursing) which could easily be achieved through any of the bsn online programs available out there. Don’t you think that it would be so ideal to have someone so qualified who has gone through bsn online around to empathize along with you through old age?

NURSING

Do you often help those in need of assistance naturally? If this has been your experience and this is common in your nature, you might want to consider taking up nursing as a career. Our society needs people like you with the compassionate touch to lighten up the days of the many patients out there. How would you go about being educated in the nursing field? There are a variety of options but a good one that takes less time and is in high demand is education to become a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). A training program specialized to educate CNAs for one, would surely ensure that you get the required training, experience and qualification to excel in the world of patient care.

Taking that first step in joining the nursing industry is not hard and by doing so, it can potentially and certainly change your future. Not only would you enjoy building up a healthier lifestyle and satisfying career among the people around you, you would also be rewarded handsomely with a pleasant remuneration. Wouldn’t that be a great career for you? What’s the hold up? Go join the cna training program as it’s so much more affordable than many of the educational programs available out there.

Even if you are not sure or have some financial problems, make the first move and have the determination to make the best out of your life. There are many financial aid and scholarship opportunities offered by hospitals and other medical facilities to get you started on your new found career. Who knows? You might be the next one in their hiring process to join their professional medical team.

24-HOUR EMERGENCY MEDICAL ASSISTANCE

Written by crizlai on Nov 2nd, 2009 | Filed under: accidents, emergency, family, insurance, life, medical, rant

Going for a vacation would be something great for many of us after working so hard for many years but how sure are we that we would be safe from any unexpected weather, health, environmental hazards or any unforeseen emergencies? Even if we were to travel across the state, we might not know what’s our future would be. Although most of us are protected under difference insurance plans, I have not seen any protection and assistance plans as comprehensive and exciting as the Good Sam Emergency Assistance Plus (EA+) program. Not only are their members covered under the Worldwide 24-Hour Travel Medical Assistance & Emergency Evacuation program, their loved ones and belongings are also assisted in times of emergencies.

The most attractive feature in joining them for me would be their ability to assist during accident or medical incident where emergency medical assistance would be provided by air and/or ground to the nearest health-care facility for proper treatment. Even if the member can’t be relocated, a dispatching specialist would be sent to oversee everything. That’s really cool!

So many thousands of Americans had joined the EA+ program to date, why not you? They even have a no-obligation money-back guarantee which would allow you a full 30 day examination period.

THE NUMBER ONE PHOBIA IN OUR LIVES

Written by crizlai on Jun 6th, 2009 | Filed under: acne, beauty, medical, stress, tips

ACNEPHOBIA

What would you think would be the number one phobia, especially amongst the teenagers? I guessed most people would relate that to social phobia. You are not wrong either if you had acne as your initial answer. Through years of research by a few reputable organizations, it has been found that those who suffered serious acne problems tend to show a higher anxiety and depression levels. Thus, there would be more concern about self-esteem and self-image amongst those affected.

With a society that would take heed on the imperfection of another due to the looks, many acne problem individuals had fallen into the grasp of anxiety. Therefore, it would have a great impact on their lives, resulting in social phobia and social withdrawal. If this problem persisted, it would affect such person his or her entire life.

Acne problems should not be taken as a life threatening problem. It could be treated easily by getting the right acne skin treatment. There are many products available off the counter for milder cases while those with serious acne problems could consult the nearest treatment centers. The most important part of preventing acne would be by keeping your skin free from dirt, dead skin and oil. You could consider getting the right cleanser, exfoliate, toner and moisturizer for your skin. Do seek the right consultant for this purpose.
