Thoroughly: How to fight against the belly
To open heart: ““ There Was an increase in Latin adolescent pregnancies”
Shortly: Menthol cigarets are more addictive
To his health: The new President and the Health

 

The reason is in the fact that the body is designed to accumulate fat
How to fight against the belly


To have pronounced abdominal muscles is the unspeakable sleep of every man, but the majority succumbs to the belly. Nevertheless, it is possible to head towards a few abs worthy of fisiculturista.
How?, next we explain to him.

In a lot of time there collaborated the idea of having a pair of pounds sterling of more to a good health. Nevertheless, the scientists have made clear that the excess weight is not healthy, and that the persons who have greasy about the waist are in major risk.
In fact, there it is the men whom have more possibilities of accumulating fat about the waist that the women.
The reason is in the fact that the body is designed to accumulate fat that they will occupy when the meal skimps. But when one puts on weight and we never occupy the reservations, then more fat accumulates in the waist. This does that more fat molecules enter the blood, what affects the metabolism and the form in which the organism secretes insulin.
This process can bring other problems, like diabetes, some types of cancer, high pressure, apnea from the sleep, high cholesterol, resistance to the insulin and metabolic syndrome.
When the persons lose fat across the exercise and good nutritive habits, the metabolism is improved.
This limits the problems risks to the health.


Does it have a lot of fat abdominal?
To know his size in the waist is a good indicator to know if it has a lot of abdominal fat. Some measurements like comparing the weight with the measurement (index of corporal mass) or the reason between the waist and the hip serve. For most of the men, the risk factors for illness of the heart and other illnesses it grows when the waist measures more than 40 inches (or 102 centimeters).
To measure well his waist, put a huincha of measuring in his abdomen a little more above of his hip, hold with steadfastness but without pressing and measure his waist then that exhales the air.
Do not do force to put inwards his waist.


Does a factor play the age?
Most of the men grow a belly as they become older. While some males have problems of weight during all his life, the majority sees his waist growing about 30 years. For the majority, the habits of his youth are not the sufficient thing to support a healthy weight as they age.
The solution is to change the form into the one that eats up and so active what his life style is to stay thin.

 


Does it serve the exercise?
To lose weight, and to support it out, you must do exercise regularly. This means to do some type of activity most of the days of the week.
A big percentage of the persons needs at least 30 daily minutes to stay healthy. But to get rid of the pounds sterling of more, probably need more something with more effort.
Aerobic exercises like riding bicycle, swimming or doing home-made works in intense form it is the best way of burning fat.
A big aerobic exercise is to walk. Using a pedometer, which is a device that measures his steps, you can make sure that you traveled the sufficient thing. For most of the men, to travel 10 thousand steps a day (along with eating well) is sufficient to support a good weight. Those who need to get rid of more fat will need to walk more.
Once it gets rid of the excess weight, it will have to support the physical activity to prevent from returning.


Do they serve the sits-up?
The stomach exercises will help him to strengthen the muscles of this area. It is possible that it turns out to be thinner on having strengthened these muscles because they will be able to support the abdominal fat more easily. But to do sits-up will not only make him lose weight.
There are no specific exercises that they help with this. Most of the persons lose abdominal fat after losing weight in other parts of the body.


What diet must I continue?
The diet fulfills an excellent roll at the time of growing thin. To do exercise is equal of important, but it is difficult to do enough physical activity to lose the belly without changing his nutritive habits. The equation is simple. To grow thin, it must burn more calories than those that it consumes, what means to avoid to eat too much greasy meals and carbohydrates, in addition to feeding on smaller portions.
There is no secret to manage to eliminate his belly. More exercise and to eat less is the key.
The good news is that more physical activity and less calories will allow him to head towards a future without belly.

 


 

Ruthie Flores says, of the Latin Initiative of the National Campaign:
““There Was an increase in Latin adolescent pregnancies”

Ruthie Flores, director of the Latin Initiative of the National Campaign of Prevention of the Adolescent Pregnancy.

For Felipe Lagos


“According to the Center of Prevention and Control of Illnesses (CDC), between 2005 and 2006, the numbers of adolescent pregnancy raised 3 % at national level. For the Hispanics, the number registered an increase of 2 %.
For Ruthie Flores, director of the Latin Initiative of the National Campaign for the Prevention of the Adolescent Pregnancy, diverse causes of the porqué exist this increase has registered.
“ I cannot say that abstinence is only because the federal government delivered more resources to the programs of “alone”. There are many factors, this can be one, other can be that we see that the youth to which we gave him the education is already not adolescent, and now there is a new generation whom to educate. With the Latin Initiative we have listened that although the parents have an important roll that to play, they do not know or not they realize the influence that they have in the decisions that his children take. The communication does not happen as it must be between the Latin family”, says the expert.
— Does he believe that in the administration of the President Obama there could be a new emphasis on prevention?
“ As in everything what Obama is doing, there will be many changes. He knows which there are the consequences of an adolescent pregnancy because her own mother raised it without having a father nearby. Also, when he was a senator he was one of the leaders who supported our law “Communities of Color”, along with conferee Hilda Solís. For the same, there are going to be changes in the politics on adolescent pregnancy”.
— Will a similar increase be seen in the numbers of 2007?
“ We believe that, seeing the tendencies, yes there is going to be an increase. We do not know if it is going to be the same, it can be less or more. Also, seeing the numbers of the states, it is possible to observe that 26 states had an increase in adolescent pregnancy. That is enough, and in only three, including DC, there was a decrease. Also, we see that the adolescents between 18 and 19 years are those who are leading this increase”.
— You did a study with Child Trend in which they relate the adolescent pregnancy to violence in the relation. How like that?
“ We realized that there is a relation between the violence in the relations where there are pregnancies. In the African American and Latin communities we have listened to relations with violence and sexual abuse, which can happen when two persons do not agree in having sexual relations. But also other types of violence exist. What we see between Latin is that there is a big difference between the age of the youngsters and his fiancés. We ask them if they agree to go out with someone for example three years major, and more than 53 % of the Latin ones answered affirmatively. When there is this difference, not only it is of age, but also of experience and of being able, what means that she they do not have to be able of decision in the situation, already is sexual or not. It is lacking in experience and knowledge can end in an adolescent pregnancy”.
— Who has the responsibility of him saying so much to youngsters and youngsters that that is not well?
“ The principal responsibility is at home. It is easy to say ‘they are the parents’, but often they have two or three works and perhaps even the adolescent he does not even live in the house of his parents. Also it is necessary to teach the men that it is better not to go out with anybody three or four years minor, since there are different consequences. The responsibility begins at home, but it is necessary to see who is in the hearth. When we speak in the schools we say that they should do an inventory of the familiar relations. This because not only it is necessary to educate the young people, they are also to the adults who surround them”.

Menthol cigarets are more addictive
Today, the Cesarean sections valuation in the United States is in his highest level of the history, shaping approximately 31 % of the childbearings.

The babies enjoy better health after a Cesarean section if this one is realized in seven days before to the date programmed originally so that they are born, according to study on births in the United States.
Those who were extracted of the counterfoil earlier across this procedure had more complications, between them respiratory problems, although they had already fulfilled the suitable term of pregnancy, say investigators of New England Journal of Medicine. Even a few days represent a difference, they said.
The discoveries offer an important handlebar for the increasing number of women to whom Cesarean sections are programmed, and the study sustains the recommendation of realizing the operations after 39 weeks unless the examinations demonstrate that the lungs of the baby are mature. The births are fixed for 40 weeks and the babies are already completely formed to the 37.
“ Take his date of childbearing and reduce him seven days, and any of these days is well”, said one of the investigators, the doctor John Thorp, of the University of North Carolina in the faculty of Medicine of Chapel Hill.
The doctor brought to the world a healthy baby after convincing his mother for whom he was waiting a few days more for his Cesarean section, although the previous week should be more suitable for the specialist and the mom.
“ We controlled ourselves and did the things in the correct moment”, said Thorp.
Porqué there is more
Cesarean sections
In the most recent study, the investigators headed by the doctor Alan Tita of the University of Alabama of Birmingham, checked the informations of Cesarean sections of 19 medical centers to see how many of the realized operations happened before the recommended date of 39 weeks and if the date in which they were realized influences the complications declaration.
The Cesarean sections valuation in the United States is in his highest level of the history, shaping approximately 31 % of the childbearings. There are many reasons for it: mothers of major age, the multiple childbearings, the threat of demands for medical negligence, the preference of doctors and moms and the risks of having natural childbearing after a Cesarean section.
In 2006, a panel of the government exhorted the women not to surrender to a Cesarean section of there was no medical weight reason for it, since the surgery presents risks and the babies born like that have major possibilities of facing respiratory problems.

To his health
The new President and the Health

Maria Gómez, the president of Mary's Center.

Undoubtedly, the election of the President Obama has been a fact without precedents in this country and they are more that we are optimistic in that really it is going to be a change that those who think that the things are not going to improve and that on the contrary, they are going to go of evil in worse.
Only I wait that his intention of change and the proposals that it has raised so that of this change, they do not remain in words of pre-electoral campaign and that soon we begin to see the resurgence of the stable and prosperous country to which our Latin families have come in search of a better future for his families.
Specially in the field of the health, I hope that his plan of offering access to medical care for all should be a fact and that our families, which have always been less beneficiaries in this aspect, finally should have a motive less of worry and stress.
As leader of a country where more than 47 million inhabitants do not have medical insurance, I would like seeing in the President Obama, to a sensitive and visionary man who understands that to invest in the health is to invest in the entire country and that to provide his inhabitants with access to health services is more profitable that to deprive them of this fundamental right, since in the end, this inattention medicates the only thing that it generates scandalous expenses are for the excessive use of the emergency rooms, which is the only option that him the most disadvantaged have left.
Undoubtedly, it leaves more favorable for the nation to offer to him to a woman, for example, the possibility of becoming annually his papanicolao or his mamografía to insure itself of that there is no illness in gestation that to have to pay the whole treatment of cancer of bosom or cervical because this woman never had access to the above mentioned examinations and when the illness was discovered, already it was too much late.
Per years, the community centers we have come giving services that the government for a reason or other one, he has refused to give. Unfortunately, the funds every time diminish more but the population who needs us keeps on growing. The need increases disproportionately with the resources that they assign to us to keep on giving our services.
I hope that the new President should look at us with better eyes that the previous administration and that they should see the potential that we have these community centers to help to improve the health of this country.
It seems that the President Barack Obama and his Vice-president Joe Biden have good intentions with the topic of health and other topics of national interest. I entrust that this way it is because then we all are going to win.
We all have the eyes put in this new government and very quickly we will be confirming if promises as that to help the employers so that they in turn offer to him medical insurance to his personnel or to demand it from the companies of insurance to cover all the persons without bearing in mind the preexisting illnesses (like cancer and diabetes, for naming someone), between others, they become true.
We hope not to defraud ourselves of the good intentions of the new President and that his reform in the topic of the health, the economy, the education, immigration and in so many topics that affect our community and to the entire country they are so revolutionary as their own election.
