Goal, Set, Match..

  • Be specific

- what do you want to achieve?

  • Go on the record

- writing down you goal help imprint them on your brain and shows your commitment.

  • start easy

- if your aim exercise 30 minutes, start with 10 minutes every morning. building the habit

will boost your confident and momentum.

  • Divide and conquer

- arrange your list into short and long term goal. then break them down into steps

  • Tell someone

- sharing your goal with you family or you "goal friend" will help you accountable

and will ensure you don't lapse

  • Reward yourself

- acknowledge your achivement of each step

I Think...

i think every household should have an emergency or medical kit ready. However, most people simply never get around to buying one. You can easily get one at the drugstore. Trust me, when the time comes that they need the kit, they will be very thankful you were so thoughtful.

Detecting Diabetes Earlier

A blood test may someday pinpoint your risk of type 2 diabetes long before
the disease sets in. People with deeply belly fat surrounding the organs have
higher levels of substance called retinol binding protein 4 (RBP4) in their blood
there're more likely to be obese and have diabetes. But even lean folks can be at
risk, says Dr Barbara Kahn, an endocrinologist at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical
Centre. Exercise and treatments for insulin resistance can lower RBP4 and may
stave off diabetes, says Dr Kahn.

Introduction of Biotechnology

Biotechnology is the interdisciplinary frontier between biology, engineering, medicine, and plant science.
Biotechnology is the use of advances in molecular biology for application in human and animal health, agriculture, environment and specially biochemical manufacturing.
Biotechnology is the collection of tools, and is about, problem solving, where experts from different disciplines collaborate to find a solution to an identified problem, such as pest control, nutritional enhancement, an improved drug, a vaccine or any antibody.
Biotechnology is not a single subject, but is really an integrated approach using a conglomerate of several disciplines such as botany, zoology, microbiology, biochemistry and chemistry, molecular biology, genetics, plant breeding, pharmacology, medicine, information and computer science and others.
A career in Biotechnology is not just a job. It is participation in then development of new products and processes that could improve the quality of human life as much as any other discovery.
Biotechnology is the ‘Biological Revolution’

protein intake for chronic kidney disease

A proper diet is vital for health, more so for those with chronic kidney disease, since the function of the kidneys is to get rid of waste resulting from body processes and the food we eat.

When we eat proteins, the waste products such as ammonia will change to urea in the liver and the blood will take the urea to the kidneys to get rid of it.When the kidney don't work properly, they can't get rid of the waste.

In thailand, doctors monitoring chronic kidney disease patients who were very disciplined and strict about their low protein diets claimed that some were able to delay the progression of the disease by eight to ten years.

While advocating a low protein diet for CKD patients, doctor cautions that they must still get enough protein, which is need to build, maintain and repair tissues and muscles as well as resist infection.Eating too little protein will lead to mainutrition and lower tha body's ability to fight infection.

The dietitian decides the diet for the patients according to his or her food habits. If the kidneys are working properly, the patient need 0.8g to 1.0g of protein per kilogramme of body weight. so a 60kg will need 48g to 60g of protein per day.

If the kidney get worse, the patient has to go on a very low protein diet of 0.3g to 0.4g of protein per kg of body weight.

Patient must choose their source of protein wisely. The best quality protein, called high biological value (HBV) protein, comes from animal product such as beef, pork, lamb,fish, chicken and dairy product. plant protein are lower quality.

Managing the underlying causes of kidney damage also imperative. A diabetic need to control blood sugar while the hypertensive person need to control blood pressure
