In the video.. A consultant reveals unexpected diseases caused by flavored salt • Al Marsad Newspaper
written by Alexandra Hartman Editor-in-Chief
Al-Marsad Newspaper: A clinical nutrition consultant, Dr. Abdulaziz Al-Othman, revealed the effect of “flavored salt or flavor enhancer” on growth hormone, short stature, or autism.
Al-Othman said, during his speech on the “Ya Hala” program on the Gulf Rotana channel, that short stature occurs as a result of various effects, including staying up late, because growth hormone is secreted between 10 am and 4 am.
He added, “This substance contains two parts, salt, and glutamate, which is a natural amino acid, but it has been proven that its excess affects the thyroid glands, growth hormone, hyperactivity, and autism.”
He concluded: “Increasing this substance may not lead to autism, but it does increase its symptoms, because autism consists of nerve messages.”
Do you suffer from a bacterial or viral infection, and which one do you need an antibiotic for?
written by Alexandra Hartman Editor-in-Chief
Dubai, United Arab Emirates (CNN) — Do you have a bacterial or viral infection? A question that perplexes many people, which prompted the Gulf Health Council to clarify the difference between the two cases, through its official account on Instagram.
bacterial infection
Diseases:
- Whooping cough
- Urinary tract infection
Do you need an antibiotic? yes
Viral infection
Diseases:
- Colds
- flu
- Most cases of cough
- Corona Virus
Do you need an antibiotic? no
And the Gulf Health Council continued, via Instagram, that viruses cannot be treated with antibiotics, and they will not cure you of infection, and may cause side effects that enhance antibiotic resistance.
And if you feel better when you take antibiotics, it may be because the virus has ended its cycle inside the body.
And while some people believe that excessive intake of antibiotics may help them in treatment, the Egyptian Ministry of Health and Population explained, through its official account on the “Instagram” website, that it may lose its effectiveness.
Therefore, it is very important to always consult your doctor regarding the best treatment for you.
And if you want to maintain the effectiveness of antibiotics and handle them accurately, be sure to follow the following:
- Do not share antibiotics with others
- Do not take antibiotics except following consulting a doctor
A spokesman for the Egyptian Ministry of Health, Hossam Abdel Ghaffar, said that the excessive use of antibiotics must be stopped, otherwise we will reach a stage where we will not find antibiotics to deal with bacteria.
The following are some of the points that Abdel Ghaffar mentioned regarding antibiotics, according to the Egyptian Ministry of Health and Population’s post via “Instagram”:
- Recent studies have shown that there is a fatal effect on the general health of humans, in the event of misuse of antibiotics
- The number of deaths caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria is much higher than the number of deaths caused by diseases such as AIDS and malaria
- There is no doubt that the resistance of bacteria to antibiotics and not being affected by them is due to the excessive and unjustified use of antibiotics, whether for humans or animals.
- Antibiotics should not be given without consulting a doctor, and they should not be shared between family members
- Antibiotics do not treat viruses
- The antibiotic dose prescribed by the doctor must be completed, even following recovery
6 children finally died in the UK due to a germ.. What is it?
written by Alexandra Hartman Editor-in-Chief
Dubai, United Arab Emirates (CNN) — UK health officials are advising parents and schools to monitor sepsis for group A (Strep A) infection, following the recent deaths of 6 children.
And with restrictions related to COVID-19, such as wearing face masks and social distancing, being lifted in the UK, infections like Strep A are spreading more easily, with an increase in the number of cases over the past month.
Strep A can cause a range of symptoms, from mild to severe, but is not fatal in most cases.
It does not always cause symptoms
and Strep A, a bacterium found in the throat and on the skin. They usually cause fever and sore throats, and many people carry them without noticing any symptoms. However, they can pass it on to others through coughing, sneezing, and close contact.
And the US Centers for Disease Control and Control (CDC) reported on its website that the symptoms of this infection include pain when swallowing, fever, skin rash, swollen tonsils and glands, and it spreads in crowded places such as schools and day care centers.
“[Infections]tend to be fairly harmless,” Beth Kampman, professor of pediatric infectious diseases and immunology and director of the Vaccine Center at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, said in a statement Friday.
“(But) in very rare cases when bacteria produce a toxin that may enter the bloodstream and cause really serious illness” such as sepsis, heart inflammation, and toxic shock with organ failure, she added.
She advised parents to seek medical advice immediately if the child seemed “very ill” and had symptoms such as fever, vomiting, muscle aches or a rash.
It can be treated with antibiotics
The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) states on its website that iGAS A is the term used when bacteria invade the body, overcoming its natural defenses with the aim of entering places such as the blood, which are more dangerous.
Although there is no vaccine to prevent infection with streptococcus group A (Strep A) or invasive group A streptococcus (iGAS A), antibiotics are usually effective in treating it.
“We’re seeing more cases of group A strep this year than usual,” Colin Brown, deputy director at the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA), said in a statement Friday.
The agency added that an increase in the prevalence of invasive group A streptococcus (iGAS) this year was noted, particularly in children under the age of ten. Five children died in England. One death has been reported in Wales, according to Public Health Wales.
Data from the UKHSA shows there were 2.3 cases per 100,000 children aged 1-4 years between mid-September and mid-November, compared with an average rate of 0.5 in pre-pandemic (2017 to 2019).
For children ages 5 to 9, there were 1.1 cases per 100,000, compared to a pre-pandemic average of 0.3.
The statement added that the last stage that witnessed an increase in the number of injuries was between 2017 and 2018, when four children under the age of ten died during the same period.
The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) said it did not believe a new strain was circulating, with the increase in infections likely being caused by “bacterial spread and social contact”.
