How To Check Your Pulse

 Your Pulse, Pulse rate or heart rate refer to how many times your heart beats per minutes or
a specific unit of time--how many contraction occur in the heart's ventricles (the lower
chambers of the heart).

What is the difference between your pulse and your rate?

  Heart rate refers to the heart, how many times it contracts in a given time.
  Pulse (pulse rate) refers to the artery you are checking with your finger(s), how many
times it bulges when there is a gush surge..

The figure for heart rate and pulse rate is the nearly always  same (expect in certain
medical conditions), because a bulge in the artery is caused by the heart contracting and
pushing blood out..

A person's heart rate varies depending on what they are doing it is slower when they are sleeping
and faster when exercising.
Finding your Pulse
Your pulse can be found where an artery passes close to the skin, such as your neck or
 wrist .
How to find your pulse in your wrist 

A person checking their pulse

      Hold one of your hands out with the palm facing upwards and the elbow slightly bent
      Place your index (first) and middle fingers of your other hand on the inside of your
wrist, just below the base of your thumb

      Press the two fingers lightly on your skin until you feel your pulse.
   
      If  you feel nothing, either press harder or search with your fingers for the artery and
press again
      
       Do not press thumb on your wrist because it has its own pulse, an artery goes
through it

Count how many beats there are over a 20-second period and them multiply the total by 3,
which will given you your  heart rate (per minute). Some people prefer to continue for thirty
seconds and then multiply by 2 or to count for a whole minute for better accuracy

Your  resting rate  this is your heartbeat (per minute) after you have been resting 
(sitting or lying still) for ten minutes.

Finding your pulse on your neck (carotid artery)

You can also find your pulse by pressing the same two fingers on the side of your neck
(carotid artery), besides your adam's apple in the hollow area. If you are over 65 be 
careful you do not press too hard; there is  a risk of becoming lightheaded.

Other ways of checking your pulse

                    The popliteal artery - behind the knee
                    The abdominal aorta - over the abdomen 
                    The apex of the heart - can be felt if you place your hand/finger on your chest
                    The basilar artery - close to the ear
                    The  brachial pedis - the middle of dorsum of the foot (the back, or surface, of the foot)
                    The femoral artery - in the groin
                    The posterior tibial artery - the ankle joint 
                    The superficial temporal artery - the temple

Using a heart rate monitor
There are several personal monitoring devices, know as heart rate monitors or pulsometers,
that allow you to measure your heart rate in real time. Some of them even record your heart 
rate for later study

Heart rate monitors, for personal use, are popular among athlete's and people who exercise
regularly. A growing number of people  buy them to check their resting  heart rates at home,
instead of pressing their fingers  on an  artery to check their pulse rate

There are two popular  types of heart rate monitors:

    A chest strap and watch - consists of two parts.You place the watch around you wrist

and a strap around your chest

Strapless heart rate monitor -
                                              The device goes around your wrist, part of the back of your hand, and
your index finger.

Finding  and measuring another person's pulse

           Make sure the person is resting Seated with their back supported and feet on the floor,
or lying down.

Stand facing the person and ask them to extend their arm toward you or take their hand,
Pull gently and stretch the arm toward you, with their palm facing upward. Then follow the same
procedure explained above for when you take your own pulse.

If the person is injured or unconscious, you need to learn about first aid, read this
article "What is first AID? What is the Recovery position?"
What is a normal resting pulse rate (heart rate)?
For a healthy human being, aged at least 18 years, anything between 60 and 100 beats per minutes
is usually considered as a normal resting heart rate.

Fit people tend to have a slower heart rate than unfit individuals. Some Olympic athletes
have been know to have a resting heart rate of 40 bmp (beat per minutes). In fact, a  resting heart
rate of 29 bmp was once recorded with Miguel  Indurain, a champion cyclist.
     The following are ideal normal heart rates in bmp:
           According to the National Institutes of Health, USA
     Newborns  (0 - 3 months) - 120 to 160
     Infants (3 - 6 months) - 90 to 120
    Infants (6 - 12 months)- 80 - 120
    Children (1 to 10 years)- 70 to 130
    People over 10 years- 60 to 100
   Well trained adults athletes - 40 to 60

According to the National health Service, UK

       Newborn ( 0 to 1 months) - 120 to 160
       Infants  (1 to 12 months) - 80 to 140
      Babies/toddlers (1 to 2 years) - 80 to 130
      Toddlers/young children (2 to 6 years) - 75 to 120
      Children (7 to 12 years) - 75 to 110
      Adults aged (18+ years) - 60 to 110
      Adults athletes - 40 to 60
UK data may vary depending on which health authority you access

Why should your pulse be checked?
People may check their pulse for many reason:

          Curiosity - You may simply want to know what your heart rate is, Perhaps during/after a
conservation your friends talked about their heart rate.

During a medical visit - When doctors carry out a physical exam, they often check the
patient's heart rate.

To check your heart - in my emergency situation, a person's heart rate can help
determine whether the heart is pumping blood properly

After an injury - to check for blood flow

To check a medication's effect - if a patient is talking medication to slow the heart
such as beta-blockers, the doctors may ask them to check their  pulse every day

To check your fitness - you may to wish to check your pulse rate during  moments of
physical exercise. For this you should  wear a heart rate monitor. Some exercise machines
have heart rate monitors you hold on to with your hands. Serious athletes also check how
long it takes for their heart rate to return to normal after physical exertion.

If your pulse feels irregular
Some people may find that their pulse is irregular -during the 20, 30 or 60 seconds when
they feel their pulse the beats  do not follow  a steady beat. If your pulse feels irregular
you should contact your doctor because you might have atrial fibrillating (AF), the leading

Sunlight Benefits For Health

Sunlight Benefits For Health

Dr. Robert S. Stern, chair of the Department of Dermatology at Harvard-affiliated Beth Israel 

Deaconess Medical Center, calls them "Solar-phobes" people so concerned about getting skin 

cancer that they stay inside or cover bit of skin. "They cover up like they were going out into the

Arabian Desert" he says. The marketing  of ultrablocking sunscreens and special sun-protective 

clothing plays into these fears.

There's no getting around the fact that sunlight is hard on your skin. Age gets blamed for 

wrinkles and rough, dry skin. But the real culprit is a combination of age and sun that dermatologists 

call photoaging. The short UVB wavelengths that cause sunburn can also damage DNA and 

suppress the skin's immune system. The longer, more penetrating UVA wavelengths may create

highly reactive oxygen molecules capable of damaging skin cell membranes and DNA inside.

Here we listed the benefits of the Sunlight for the health.

(1)   Start with the obvious.Sunlight is the initiator of Vitamin D3 creation in our bodies. 

Sunshine's UVB rays interact with the cholesterol in our skin that ignites a process to create Vitamin D

from our kidneys and liver. This doesn't happen without sunlight.

Exposing more bare skin to sunlight is necessary for 20 to 30 minutes at least three or four times weekly.

Glass windows and windshields block UVB rays while letting in UVA rays, which can be harmful.

One irony is that most sunscreens block only UVB rays, thus inhibiting vitamin D3 production. As a

pre-hormone, Vitamin D3 has many internal health function.

 Vitamin D3 production from sunlight has  its own shut-down mechanism, safeguarding you from

overdosing  Vitamin D. But if you wash exposed skin with soap too soon, you wash away

the skin's oils that have just begun the Vitamin D process.

(2). Dr .Johanna Budwig promoted daily sunlight exposure in conjunction with her famous Budwig diet

for curing cancer. She had become aware of sunlight's electromagnetic contribution to the dietary 

elements of her successful cancer cures.

(3). During long period without sunshine, many get depressed. It called seasonal affective disorder

(SAD). Besides feeling gloomy, people experiences low energy.

(4). A substance in our bodies called melatin may be able to convert sunlight into metabolic energy.

There are studies looking into this.

(5). Sunlight exposure was discovered to reduce the need for pain medication, stress, and anxiety 

among post operative patients in one hospital that conducted a study in 2005.

(6). A 2012 neuroscience study determined that those who had six hours of sunlight exposure

during the day were more alert in the evening.

(7). A 2011 dermatological study observed the sunlight exposure helps burn subcutaneous fat,

which is unattractive but doesn't necessarily affect cardiovascular health adversely.

Health Benefits Of Water

Health Benefits of Water

The human body is a water machine, designed primarily to run on water and minerals. Every

life giving and healing process that happens inside our body  happen with water. In just

the last decade medical science has begun to focus  more on the tremendous healing ability 

our body has and how  much that ability depends on water. Our body instinctively knows how

and strives to sustain youthful longevity, and in its every effort  Water is the key. The human body 

is made up of over 70% water. Our blood is more than 80 %, our brain over 75% and the human liver

is an amazing 96% water!

that just a 5% drop in body fluids will cause a 25% to 30% loss of energy in the average person

a 15% drop in body fluids causing death water is what our liver uses to metabolize loss due to minor

dehydration.

Function:

               Water is a fundamental part of our lives. It is easy to forget how completely we depend on

it. Human survival is dependent on water- water has been ranked experts as second only to oxygen 

as essential for life. The average adult body is 55 to 75% water. 2/3 of your body weight is water 

(40 to 50 quarts). A human embryo is more than 80% water. A newborn baby is 74% water. 

Everyday your body must replace 2 1/2 quarts of water. The water you drink literally becomes you!

Since such a large percentage of our bodies is water, water must obviously figure heavily in how our

bodies function. We need lots of fresh water to stay healthy.

 Water is the medium for various  enzymatic & chemical reactions in the body. In moves nutrients,

hormones, antibodies & oxygen through the blood stream & lymphatic system. The proteins &

enzymes of the body function more efficiently in solution of lower viscosity.Water is the solvent of the body

& it regulates all function including the activity of everything it dissolves & circulates.

     Water helps regulate our body temperature through perspiration, which dissipates excess heat & 

cools our bodies.

     We even need water to breathe! as we take in oxygen & excrete CO2 our lungs must be 

moistened by water. We lose about 1 to 2 pints of water each day just exhaling.

Asthma is frequently relieved when water intake is increase. Histamine plays a key role in 

regulating the way the body uses & distributes water & helps control the body's defense mechanisms.

In asthmastics histamine level increases with dehydration. Our defense for the body is to close down the 

airways.

The kidneys remove wastes such as uric acid, lactic acid all of which must be dissolved in water. When 

there isn't sufficient water, those wastes are not effectively removed, which may result in damage to the 

kidneys.

Water lubricates our joints. The cartilage tissues found at the ends of long bones & between the vertebrea

of the spine hold a lot of water, which serves as a lubricant during the movement of the joint. When the

cartilage is will hydrated, the two opposing surfaces glide freely & friction damage is minimal. If the

cartilage is dehydrated the rate of "abrasive" damage is increased, resulting in joint deterioration &

increased pain.

     The activity growing blood cells in the bone marrow take priority over the cartilage for the available

 water that goes through the bone structure.

     Rheumatoid joint pain frequently decreases with increased water intake & flexing exercises to bring

more circulation to the joints.

     75% of the upper body weight is supported by the water volume that is stored in the spinal disc

core. 25% is supported by the fibrous materials around the disc. The spinal joints are dependent

on different hydraulic properties of water which is stored in the disc core. Back pain is frequently

alleviated with hydration.

So far, we've discovered some remarkable truths about water and weight loss:

The body will not function properly without enough water and can't metabolize stored fat efficiently.

•           Retained water shows up as excess weight.
•           To get rid of excess water you must drink more water.
•           Drinking water is essential to weight loss.

How much water is enough? on the average a person should drink eight 8-ounce glasses every day.

That's about 2 quarts. However, the overweight person needs one additional glass for every 25

points of excess weight. The amount you drink also should be increased if you exercise briskly or 

if the weather is not and dry.
