Minerals are a group of micronutrients for the body. This means that nutrients are only needed in small amounts to support the growth and blossoms of your body.

Difference Vitamins and Minerals

- Many consider that the same vitamins with minerals. Whereas in the chemical structure of these nutrients have a different shape once did have some similar functions. Some of the differences between vitamins and minerals are:

- Minerals included in the inorganic elements. This means that minerals can retain its shape after entry into the body. If the vitamin can be damaged by heat, acid or any other process, it is not a mineral that has a strong structure and is not easily broken.

- The structure will change as vitamins into the body. The body does not absorb vitamins in its initial form, it is absorbed in the form of pro-vitamin (vitamin are not yet active). While the mineral can not be changed emjadi other elements. For example, Fe (iron) can combine with other elements to form compounds thereof, but the iron will not turn into another element.

- When it gets into the body, will carry out their duties mineral helps metabolize without going through other processes. For example, magnesium is directly absorbed for relaxation of muscles and nerves. Iron for red blood cell formation. Calcium to nourish the bones and teeth and many other essential minerals for good health.

Bile coming out itself

For centuries our people have several ways of self-employed by us with no thought even of consulting a doctor.
This is a no-spa with abdominal pain, aspirin on temperature and herbal "on the liver."
And we can not think of at least consult with someone, read about contraindications, and think about the consequences.
Yet each of these ways - and especially self-appointed choleretic - with serious consequences.


According to the doctors, cholagogue drugs can certainly be useful: they stimulate digestion, increase intestinal motility, reduce the likelihood of constipation.
In addition, the bile is bactericidal, prevents excessive proliferation of microbes in the small intestine. With her leave the body of certain hazardous substances and cholesterol.
With a lack of bile acids can not be the normal absorption of fat-soluble vitamins and increased risk of osteoporosis.
But it is only when applied under strict medical supervision.


Because without control is this:
• exacerbation of chronic pancreatitis, hepatitis, cirrhosis, and various diseases of the large and small intestines;• Reduction of natural antioxidants in the liver;• unpredictable reaction of the kidneys and the liver on the composition of herbal and dietary supplements (especially marijuana razdobyvalis and compiled into medicine in China or Taiwan);• blockage of bile duct stones disturbed;• biliary tract spasm.
And all of this - from the harmless herbal.
In fact, any interference with the affairs of the bile is carried out only after a serious examination, which includes:
• Inspection of the therapist;• Analysis of the number of liver enzymes;• Ultrasound of the liver and gall bladder.
And only then - make up a recipe collection or list of medications.
And the only way.

How to get a shot yourself?

How to get a shot yourself?I remember.
You take the gun, trying to hold it like a cigarette, you come to the foam rubber dummy, mentally delish this gray, sad, Punctured incompetent ass students into four parts - and how to pierce the silver needle in the upper right quarter!
Hands shaking, drug flows through the cells, the patient is more dead than alive, the teacher grabs his head and draws a fat deuce in the journal ...
I really do not know why it was difficult to learn how to make a shot. Maybe the excessive humanity, and perhaps a lack of diligence.




But there are situations when it is not up to whims. If not you - who? Or in the hospital, or the number itself. And then we need to act quickly and accurately, according to instructions.
Instructions for intramuscular injections carried out in the home:
The best place for intramuscular injection (simply speaking - shot) - the upper outer part of the buttocks: here is small probability that a needle into a blood vessel, nerve or bone.
Intramuscular injections of the drug substance is absorbed more quickly, because of the large vessels in the muscles than in the subcutaneous tissue.
Contribute to more rapid absorption and muscle contractions. In addition, can be administered intramuscularly those drugs which, when injected subcutaneously cause severe pain or severe irritation.
Carefully inspect the vial, check the name of the medication, the amount and expiration date.
Shake the vial, the medication has fallen down, and nadpilite special nail file at the transition from the narrow to the wide side (nail file is in the box with the medicine).
Lower the needle from the syringe into the vial, pull the plunger over and enter medicine. If you have a bottle of dry powder, you will need a solvent (which one - will be specified in the instructions to the drug).
Dial the solvent from a vial into the syringe. Open the metal cover bottle, rubbing alcohol rubber cap and pierced it with a needle, type solvent.
Shake the bottle, the powder is completely dissolved, turn it upside down, just as you did with the ampoule, and enter a ready solution in the syringe.


Then change the needle - an injection should not hold the same needle, which you pierce the rubber cover, since, first, violated sterile needles, and, secondly, the blunt needle and the injection is more painful.
Tap your finger on the syringe to make any air bubbles collect at the top of the syringe into one, and slowly pushing the plunger, "push" the air bubble through the needle.
Air bubble in the syringe can lead to serious consequences, so be careful.
Before an injection in the buttocks patient should lie on his stomach or side - your muscles relax.
Take a cotton wool soaked with rubbing alcohol, and wipe the injection site.
Remove the syringe and needle holding it up, gently press the plunger to air out - the needle should drop to make the drug.
(Make sure that the syringe air bubbles!)
Then take the gun in his right hand. If you make a shot adult left hand stretch the skin at the injection site (in children, however, the skin must be taken into the fold).
Take the hand with a syringe and sharply, at a right angle to slide it into the muscle by almost 3/4 needle (not to the end!).
Slowly pressing on the plunger with your right thumb, enter medicine.
Cotton swab dipped in alcohol, press the injection site and abruptly withdraw the needle, and then suffered a muscle massage.
And - let your patient recovers!

And how do you cough?

Whatever appeared in our airways - dust, water, food particles or mucus as sputum - a reaction to it will always be a cough.
It signals that the airways are obstructed.
In children, such reactions occur more often with the appearance of inflammation in the bronchi, trachea, and lungs.


But at the wrong treatment of inflammatory processes may be so-called psychogenic cough when in the respiratory all normal, and the cough still remained as the cough reflex was not depressed. Such a psychogenic factor may appear in the treatment of dry cough, causing sleep disturbance, vomiting, pain in the chest.
Therefore, to choose the right treatment, you need to start with a precise diagnosis.
Identify methods for controlling the disease can be just as "sound" cough - it will help to find out where the "based" inflammatory focus.
If the cough is dry, that is, without a discharge of phlegm, sound constantly in the same key - an inflammation of the upper respiratory tract:
• the defeat larynx usually dry, rough and barking, can be accompanied by hoarseness;• inflammation of the trachea cough, rough, hard of hearing, it may be in the early stages of bronchitis;• painful dry cough occurs with inflammation of the pharynx.
If the cough is wet, has an average volume, and is paired with copious sputum, such cough may appear:
• bronchitis;• in the final stages of pneumonia, chronic bronchitis and tracheitis.
In such cases, a more liquid cough up phlegm easily, but thick and sticky requires little effort. After phlegm cough usually stops, and after it starts accumulating again.
Croupy cough or false croup - inflammation of the larynx and pharynx, caused by a cold. False it is called due to the fact that the "true" develops with diphtheria.
In such cases, the cough sounds like a bark, as laryngeal lumen narrowing due to swelling of the mucous membrane below the vocal cords.
Cough appears suddenly and is usually in the evening. With such a coughing child begins to choke. Therefore, when the rump requires immediate medical help!
Cough in the morning can be due to nasal congestion, because mucus from the nose flows into the respiratory tract below it.
In any of these cases need to show the child the doctor as undertreated cough can lead to him adenoids, chronic bronchitis and even pneumonia.
After all, the reason for this phenomenon, such as cough, can not be determined independently. It can be caused by allergies, asthma, whooping cough.
And do not own any medicine.


Expectorants plant are relatively cheap and available, but their effectiveness in the treatment of cough, although the widest practical use, so far has not proven by clinical studies. Vegetable cold preparations should be used with caution, as many of the children they can cause allergies. Synthetic expectorants are much more efficient,than expectorants plant, but their use should be monitored by your doctor.
As you can see, it's not so easy! So check with your doctor, because their own confidence may not always provide a benefit.

Limbs guard

Limbs guardThe main condition of success in the care of hands and feet, as rightly observed wise actress - regular care. Thus it is quite simple.
"Continuous lubrication hand cream - the best way to ensure that they had a well-groomed appearance, even if you have nothing else to do. In my house, beside each sink are tubes and bottles of hand cream that I use after any contact with the water at a time, while they are still wet. "


Sophie advises to buy a few jars of cream and keep them in a bag in the car, on the phone (of course, not just hold, and even use it as soon as possible to rub the cream into your hands).If you, like Sophia Loren, too lazy to sit in the manicure room, you might like it, take care of their own nails. To quote the actress:
"I have to file nails before taking a bath. When the water will soften the skin around the holes, I sidled away with a soft cloth and rub the cream there. "
Since taking baths in our time is not very important (many of my friends more often in order to save money and time in the shower and wash tubs, even as such by repair liquidate), you can easily make bath for hands in whatever order you a deep dish.
Additional tips and tricks Mrs. Lauren those who do housework.
"If you can not stand the smell, soaking his fingers after working with onions, lower your arms in slightly diluted apple cider vinegar" (you can take any other vinegar or rub hands with a piece of lemon).
"Dial a phone number with a pencil or pen" (not very important, but, however, please note, if you still have a rotary phone).
"Scratch a bar of soap before working in the garden, and the nails are protected from dirt" (awesome - my mom did just that!).
Do not forget Sophia Loren and legs. The actress admits:
"When I read or sit in front of the TV, then kata feet rolling pin. It relieves stress. "
I wondered: how to use this advice, if the TV I watch very rare, and I read mostly on public transport. And she began to roll a rolling pin, sitting at the computer. Sometimes I replace the rolling pin bottle with hot water, sometimes with a cold (depending on how hot or cold to me.) Feeling - great!
Go back to the book.
"If you use a pumice stone, and lubricate the foot cream, you just have to do a pedicure" - she writes.
I understand that a pedicure actress understands nail varnish.


The modern beauty industry has convinced us that the pedicure is a system of care for the feet. I think every woman should own to decipher this definition depending on the condition of their feet. And then, depending on this to decide who will take care of her feet: she or master in the cabin.
Finally another important point actress.
"Remember that day his feet swell, and do not be surprised if in the evening foot rise by half a size or more. Therefore, I advise to buy shoes in the afternoon. Feet may swell and the plane. If during the flight you kicked off her shoes to rest, risk off the plane barefoot. Foot swells in tight stockings, cause ingrown nails. Therefore, putting on socks in the morning, and make sure they are stretched a little longer than the big toe. "
