Cancer !

What is cancer?
Cancer is an imbalance between cell growth and cell death, resulting in the accumulation of large numbers of cells.When cells pile up, its called a tumor, they can pile up like a fist or a tangerine, which can be taken out. Most of whats seen in breast and prostate tumors are benign tumors.

The other kind looks like your open hand, although historically this is more dangerous, malignant cancer was compared to the spread-out crab-shaped stars in the constellation cancer.


Best ways to minimize cancer risk :

1.Don't Smoke:.

2.Shun The Sun:

Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer.

3.Live An Anti-Cancer Lifestyle:

Diets rich in fruits and vegetables are very effective at preventing cancer. You have to exercise, eat right, and watch your weight. Also, drink 8 glasses of water per day.

4.Talk To Your Doctor

If You Know You're At High Risk:Your father had colon cancer, and so did an uncle and a cousin?You'll want to share a family pedigree like that with your physician, who will want to make sure you get earlier, more aggressive screenings than other men your age.A rule of thumb: Begin those screenings 10 years before the age your closest relative was diagnosed.Dad got the bad news at age 50?Start those screenings by age 40.

6.Supplements And Vitamins Might Help: According to doctors, people who take vitamins C and E are a bit more protected than people who dont.Vitamin C especially has a very short lifespan, and unless you eat a lot of fruits and vegetables you probably aren't getting enough of it.For vitamin E, you can't really overdose on the stuff, and its a very good antioxidant. Taking selenium appears to reduce one's risk of developing prostate cancer.

7.If Prevention Fails, Catch It Early:The next best thing to cancer prevention is early detection.If cancer is detected early when its still localised in the organ(where it originates) and when it hasnt had a chance to spread to other parts of the body, conventional therapy, surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, can cure patients 90% or more of the time.
************ ********* ********* ********* ******
Different Tests For Different Types Of Cancers:


There are only a few cancers for which official screening guidelines exist, although developing such guidelines is a top priority for researchers and cancer agencies.Her are some latest information on which screening tests are out there and what kind of progress is being made on developing tests for specific cancers:

Colon Cancer:Common tests include the fecal occult blood test, which tests your stool for invisible amounts of blood;sigmoidoscopy , where the lower colon is visualized using a scope; and colonoscopy, where the whole colon is visualized.Many doctors recommend that guys over age 50 and sooner if they're at high risk, get a fecal occult blood test annually and a sigmoidoscopy every 5 years.


Prostate Cancer:

Common tests include rectal exams- the "finger tests" where the physician feels your prostate; and PSA tests, wher the level of a substance produced by the prostate is measured in your blood.


Lung Cancer:

Currently, no studies have firmly supported the use of imaging technology-like X-rays or CAT scans for the detection of lung cancer.However, some research groups are actively studying the effectiveness and safety of such techniques, such as using low-radiation
high resolution CAT scans to screen the lungs of smokers for early development of lung cancer.


Mouth Cancer:

The common causes of oral cancer:tobacco and alcohol.However they have a very good cure rate when they're caught early and very poor when they're allowed to advance.Your dentist should be screening for this-assuming you're scheduling regular appointments.


Testicles Cancer:

Although this type of cancer is rare it usually hits men aged between 15-35.Testicular cancer is highly curable if caught at an early stage, and men can greatly increase thier chances of an early diagnosis by performing a monthly self-exam-that is, by feeling manually for lumps in the testicles.



Anal Cancer:

Of particular concern to gay and bisexual men, anal cancer is similar to cervical cancer in that it, too, is caused by a sexually transmitted virus-the human papillomavirus.


Penile Cancer:

This is a rare cancer that some studies suggest is less common in circumcised than uncircumcised men.However, the issue may be more about hygiene or sexual promiscuity than the presence of extra skin.So, When doing you're testicle self-examination, go ahead and peel back your foreskin and look for anything weird going on-growths, discoloration, anything that looks unusual- and report any suspicious findings to your primary care doctor.

TIME MANAGEMENT TIPS !

>> Don't know where to start? Make a " To Do" list.
Make a list of all the things you do every day.
Categorize these items into work, family, and personal time.

>> Plan your day using your " To Do" list. Prioritize. What must be done? What can be rescheduled, delegated, or deleted? Eliminate or delegate trivial tasks.

>> Review your plan. Is it realistic? Are you trying to do too much?

>> End of each day, plan the next day. This helps you feel more organized and in control.

>> If you like calendars, planning books, then, use abbreviations, write down anniversaries / birthdays, keep track of your goals, record notes and ideas, upcoming appointments etc.

>> Set goals that are specific, measurable, realistic, and achievable- they give you purpose and direction. What do you want to accomplish? When?

>> Be flexible. Allow time for interruptions and distractions. When you expect to be interrupted, plan routine tasks. Save larger blocks of time for your priorities.

>> Use your body's prime time to your advantage. Which time of day are you at your best? Are you a "morning person," a "late afternoon whiz," or a "night owl?" Plan to use this time of day (if possible) for your priorities and be more effective.

>> Identify what the right thing to do is, and then focus on doing it right. This goes a long way towards improving your personal efficiency.

>> Assign deadlines to important priorities to keep them from becoming last-minute emergencies.

>> Avoid perfectionism- as this can be a form of procrastination- sometimes good enough is good enough.

>> To avoid procrastination, break a task into smaller tasks and work on one task for 15 minutes. The logic behind this method is that if you do a little at a time, eventually you'll reach the point where you'll want to finish.

>> Learn to say "No" by focusing on the importance of your goals. If necessary, schedule personal time for priorities such as friends, family, and you.

>> Reward yourself for achieving your goals. Balance your life with fun.

食品安全(務必要看)

1. 如果吃壞肚子，有類似 食物中毒 的情況，可以趕緊喝「優酪乳 」來改善。
2. 以玻璃瓶裝的醬油可以熱殺菌處理，所以沒有防腐劑，但是沒有用完的要放在冰箱裡。
塑膠瓶裝 的則無法熱殺菌處理，所以一定會用 防腐劑。
3. 市面上販賣的「 蜜餞、 金針、 F年果糖」，
裡面都有高量的「 二氧化硫 」會造成氣喘 。
4. 在台灣， 45%以上的花生 都含有「黃麴毒素 」，所以不要大量的吃，
而且至少隔三天以上再吃第二次，以免 黃麴毒素無法代謝掉而增加肝臟的負荷 。
5. 市面上販賣的 紙盒裝牛奶裡面，都會有「 雙氧水 」，是作為紙盒殺菌用的。
6. 吃掉一公斤的蔬菜 ，相當於100條香腸的「亞硝酸」，因為除了「有機蔬菜」之外，
都是使用 化學肥料，尤其是 氮肥 ，雖然會讓蔬菜長得很漂亮，但是也造成殘留。
另外，長得愈漂亮的蔬菜愈危險，因為蟲不敢吃它，那是因為使用農藥的緣故。
而且，這些 殘留的肥料和農藥，用 水洗是洗不掉的 。
7. 在台灣， 海鮮 儘量不要吃，因為海洋被污染得相當嚴重 。
如果實在忍不住要吃魚，也要吃「小尾的」魚，而不要吃大尾的，
因為大魚吃小魚，小魚的毒素會累積在大魚的體內，一條大魚體內的毒素，是小魚的
100 倍，所以，如果想吃一公斤的魚，要吃一公斤的小魚，而不要吃一公斤的大魚。
8.「 三色蛋 」(尤其是自助餐店裡的)，是 高風險的中毒食品 。
9. 泡麵保麗龍碗 遇熱會釋出108種的物質 ，而且許多還會產生怪味，
但是都被調味料的味道蓋過去了。(所以，應該改用大磁碗，甚至最好少吃，
因為泡麵的麵都是用油炸的 )
10. 胡椒 最容易生長細菌 ，在學校做實驗時，常用胡椒泡水放一夜後用來做生化實驗。
所以胡椒的保存需要多加留意 。
11. 用茶包泡茶的時候，不要把 紙牌標籤一起放進去，因為標籤上都會使用
工業色素印製圖案，而這些色素是會溶於水的 。

Marvellous Answer !

A mechanic was removing the cylinder heads from the motor of a car when
he spotted the famous heart surgeon in his shop, who was standing off to the side,
waiting for the service manager to come to take a look at his car.

The mechanic shouted across the garage, "Hello Doctor!! Please come over here for a minute." The famous surgeon, a bit surprised, walked over to the mechanic.

The mechanic straightened up, wiped his hands on a rag and asked argumentatively,
"So doctor, look at this. I also open hearts, take valves out, grind 'em, put in new parts,
and when I finish this will work as a new one. So how come you get the big money,
when you and me is doing basically the same work?

"The doctor leaned over and whispered to the mechanic...........He said:
>> "Try to do it when the engine is running". <<

鋁中毒（一定要看完喔！）

常常吃完火鍋後 ,情緒低落、易感疲倦、胸悶、腸、胃、肝、腎漸感不適.吃不完的罐頭食品千萬別直接放入冰箱~~鋁中毒，一定要看完喔！鋁中毒現象有情緒低落、易感疲倦、胸悶、腸、胃、肝、腎..隨著個人不同的身心背景，在身體最虛弱的部位反映出來。鋁中毒不易察覺，一般人都會根據身體產生的不適症狀，找醫師做藥物治療。如果在生活中未能檢視自己的身心狀態，尋找生病的源頭，長期下來傷害神經系統，將引起老人癡呆症。說明：鋁鍋烹煮食物所釋出的鋁是否會引發不適症狀，至今並無明顯科學證據證明兩者間之關係；而鋁製容器多有聚乙烯塑膠層塗布於其內層。如正確使用，不會造成健康上的危險，衛生機關目前並未發現有因使用鋁製鍋具或容器而導致鋁中毒之案例，而世界各國亦均未有禁止使用鋁鍋之措施。

朝鹽晚蜜清理腸道

朝鹽晚蜜”是一種從古到今廣為流傳的養生方法。操作十分簡便：在早晨起床後，用開水沖一杯淡鹽水，先漱漱口，然後慢慢飲下；在晚上臨睡前，喝上一杯蜂蜜水。可用這兩樣東西祛除胃腸中積聚的熱結，熱結一除，便不會有消化不良，便秘等現象，同時又因蜂蜜有養脾氣，除心煩的功用，所以可使人心神安定，早入好夢。早鹽晚蜜對治療咽喉炎也有極佳的療效。說明：目前並未有任何醫學研究證明鹽水或蜂蜜水對於改善便秘症狀有效，根據營養學專家的建議，平日多攝取水分及含膳食纖維之食物才是預防便秘的最佳方法；另外，針對「早鹽晚蜜對治療咽喉炎也有極佳的療效」一詞，也未有醫學根據，皆屬於誇大之網路謠言。

不宜喝的五種開水

下列五種開水不宜飲用：●在爐灶上沸騰了很長時間，飲用水已經是溫吞水。●裝在熱水瓶裡已好幾天，成了不新鮮的溫開水。●經過多次反覆煮沸的殘留開水。●開水鍋爐中隔夜重煮和未重煮的開水。●蒸飯、蒸肉後的「下腳水」。這幾種開水不適宜飲用的原因，簡單地說，反覆沸過的開水中，所含的鈣、鎂、氯、重金屬等微量成分增高了，會對人的腎臟產生不良影響。而溫吞水中亞硝酸鹽容易增多。說明：一、一般而言，飲用水水源若以自來水為前提，則其水源水質係已經過消毒及檢測，其重金屬等有害物質皆有安全限量之保障，且因其殘留之礦物質、重金屬或硝酸鹽等含量極微，除非經過高度濃縮處理，否則不至於會到因重複煮沸蒸發導致其相對濃度增加至有害人體之程度。

案內相關危害之主要成因，應與使用受污染之水源，或地下水、井水等未處理過之水源較有關係，例如受垃圾或農作物肥料等污染之水源，則可能殘留較高量之亞硝酸鹽。另外，一般自來水加熱煮沸之目的係減低水中生菌數含量，及利用煮沸過程將消毒時可能殘留之氯揮發掉等，但並非完全滅菌之措施，故不建議長時間儲放後再直接飲用。二、為了確保飲水之安全，民眾應使用自來水作為飲用水水源，經過適當之加熱煮沸步驟後再行飲用，平日以適當且乾淨之密閉容器儲存，並定期更換或重新煮沸；一般家庭使用的淨水或飲水之設備、管路，宜保持清潔，定期檢視及清洗，才能常保飲用水之安全衛生。
