AIDS-Free World in Front of Eyes

Good news for humanity. Scientists propose a radical way to combat the disease, with anti-retroviral drug treatment that can eradicate AIDS within 40 years.

An aggressive program to prescribe anti-retroviral treatment (ART) in HIV-infected everyone, could stop all new infections in five years and finally delete the epidemic. Thus expressed Dr Brian Williams of the Center for Epidemiological Modelling and Analysis in South Africa, yesterday.

Dr Williams is part of the body of experts who believe that the development of anti-HIV drugs is probably the best hope for preventing and even eliminating the spread of AIDS. Instead he rejected the option to wait which was considered an effective vaccine development, or just rely on people to change their sexual lifestyle.

The idea will be tested next year, started a controlled clinical trial involving thousands of people who lived in a section of South Africans with HIV and AIDS incidence is high. Dr Williams said that effort would be followed by similar experiments in the United States, where HIV is rampant in some cities.

"Our fastest expectancy using ART not only to save lives, but also to reduce HIV transmission. I believe if we use an effective antiretroviral drug, can stop the spread of HIV in five years," said Dr Williams.

"ART lets stop the spread of HIV and AIDS, AIDS related sufferers reduce by half in the past 10 years and eliminate the infection within 40 years," he told the American Association for the Advancement of Science in San Diego, California.

Anti-retroviral drugs dramatically lower the concentration of HIV in a person's blood stream, in addition to protecting against AIDS patients. The drug significantly reduce transmission among individuals.

Dr Williams and his supporters believe, if an infected person has enough to be treated, will decrease the infection rate so that the epidemic will die. He believes AIDS can be effectively abolished in the middle of this century.

Female Condoms to Fight the HIV Epidemic

Washington - Although the community had failed to be accepted, re-promoted female condoms in Washingoton DC. Another aim was to reduce HIV/AIDS epidemic.

Charlene Cotton will speak to anyone about sex. Several days a week, he stood behind a table adorned with a bowl of condoms in various flavors and pamphlets on safe sex. He greeted each woman passing by the road, "Come to my desk. Do not be afraid."

She then asked, "Did you hear about female condoms?"

Then, to show how it works, she took a teaching aid in the form of condoms and human anatomy models.

Conversations about this is actually quite awkward to do at the curb. But Cotton is not ashamed. She's part of an effort to promote the city of Washington DC female condom. Hopes, their involvement can help stop the spread of HIV in Washington, which has the highest infection rates in the U.S..

A group of community members also handed out 500 000 female condoms, flexible bag that is larger than the male condom but the same length, during the session of instruction in beauty salons, barbershops, churches and restaurants.

Female condoms sold in some drug stores in Columbia, though less in demand, but Washington is the only city that allows people can obtain condoms women outside the health clinic. City officials began to promote, such as through websites, posters, bus 460 which is the third of the city fleet.

Ad shows a pair of humans who were embraced by a woman holding a condom package. This promotion will last for three months. "With the female condom for her pleasure point. Come on, try it," insisted the ad.

The question is if the promotion took place effectively, it means that the women would use a condom?

This is an important question in Washington.

A study in 2009 found the facts about 3% of the city's population aged over 12 living with HIV or AIDS. It was a severe epidemic, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention HIV/AIDS, which is considered an epidemic 'severe' when more than one percent of the population affected.

Washington DC is not the first city to distribute the female condom. New York City had previously promoted female condoms, to be exact since 1998. A group of people there handing out about 930 000 condoms, few know then.

Heart Attack


Heart disease are commonly known and most common is coronary heart disease or coronary artery disease. The disease is most frequently causing a heart attack in someone who can cause death. The cause is narrowing of the coronary arteries, where the vessel serves to provide blood to the heart muscle. Constriction caused by a pile of cholesterol or other proteins derived from food that enters the body. This buildup causes the coronary arteries become stiff. Stiffness is called atherosclerosis.

Atherosclerosis occurs if there is plaque buildup or deposition of fat on artery walls. After a time, can accumulate plaque, hardens and narrows arteries, and inhibit blood flow to the heart. Coronary artery disease or coronary artery disease (CAD) is that basically leads to most heart attacks.


Healthy eatingAvoid foods that contain lots of fat or that contain high cholesterol. Seafood has a high cholesterol content which may harm the heart. Reduce eating fried foods that contain lots of fat, otherwise the food can be processed by boiling, steaming or baking.

Avoid StressStress is very difficult to avoid when living in big cities like Jakarta is known for its jams and preoccupations. When a person experiences stress, the body will release the hormone cortisol which causes the blood vessels become stiff. Norepinephrine hormones will be produced when the body suffers stress, which will cause rise in blood pressure. So, very good if you avoid the stress both in the office or at home.
Stop smokingCigarette smoking is not good for heart health, then immediately stop this habit in order to keep the heart healthy.

Do not Do It at the Gym!

Who wants to waste time doing sports that are not effective and full of risk? Certainly not you. So, throw five movements "in vain" and potentially provide the following injury.

1. Using the "lat pull-down"
(fitness equipment shaped pulley)
Error: Interestingly in the back of the head.

Only someone who has a very flexible shoulder joints are capable of making their spine straight enough to do this exercise correctly. If we are wrong and do it repeatedly, then the inter-shoulder impingement can no longer inevitable. Or even worse, it could lead to a torn rotator cuff (muscles and tendons that hold the upper arm at the shoulder joint). When the handle of the hand touching the back of the neck bone, this condition can result in injury to the cervical vertebrae (neck vertebrae).

Safer mode: When using the pull-down menu, try leaning the body a few degrees to the rear. Handheld wand over our shoulder width, then bring the stick down in front of the body until parallel to the breastbone. Lower the shoulder blades together. Hold the abdomen to stabilize the body. Lat pull-down tool is useful to train your upper back muscles.

2. When conducting "military press" (lifting weights to train the shoulder muscles)
Error: Lifting in the back of the head.

Habit of lifting weights or barbell at the back of our heads would cause the same problem as that posed by the lat pulldown device if it is done in the back of our heads.

Safe mode: When doing military press, try to lift weights and barbells in front of our heads. Standing with lean weight is not lower than the collarbone, and make sure we keep the upper body upright. This exercise can also be done while sitting, as long as we sat up and put back on the back of the chair. Maintain the natural curve of our spine, and press your back muscles back and buttocks to the chair.

3. When lifting weights
Error: Lifting burden under the chin.

Never load or lifting weights under our chins. Why? This action will push the muscles in the shoulder area.

Safe way: Compared to the appointment up to the chin, better train our shoulders to lift the load toward the front or to the outer side of our body.

4. Doing "lying leg press"
Error: we are too deep knee bend.

When did lying leg press, we'll sit leaned back and put a foot on the board with the ballast. Next, we will press the board to go up and down his back, with the aim of training the muscle quadriceps (front thigh), hamstring (rear thigh), and buttocks. However, there will be a problem when we bend the knee in excess. This condition will injure your back and knees.

Safe way: if we want to do this exercise, then defend our position not to lift your buttocks from the exercise machine. Avoid bending the knee angle exceeding 90 degrees.

Leftover food (especially sugar) are left on the sidelines of the teeth will stimulate growth of Mutans streptococci bacteria that colonies growing on the layer of dental plaque. The bacteria can ferment the sugar left on the teeth and produce acid compound which lowers the pH of the mouth to less than 5.5. Acid compound layer will erode tooth enamel, forming a hole in the tooth surface.

Xylitol is a positive impact on dental health, because it can inhibit the growth and metabolism of dental plaque formation by the bacteria Streptococcus Mutans. Xylitol is believed to support the process re-mineralization on dental caries. This was stated by Prof. Jason Tanzer, head of Connecticut School of Dental Medicine.

Xylitol is considered as a tooth-friendly sweeteners. It is so called not only because xylitol prevents tooth decay by replacing the role of regular sugar, but also because it can repair minor damage to dental caries. Xylitol can reduce dental plaque otherwise unable to decompose by microorganisms that live in the mouth that cause cavities.

Xylitol is considered as the second greatest invention compounds for dental health after fluoride, as recognized Dr Nigel Carter of the International Dental Health Foundation. Because xylitol is an empty calorie sweetener, Mutans streptococci bacteria can not use it as an energy source, even threaten their survival.

In addition, xylitol can not be fermented acidic compounds are formed so as not to cause tooth decay. Xylitol mouth guard pH remained stable at neutral pH (around 7) so that it can prevent tooth decay and stimulate production of saliva which is rich in calcium to speed up the process of reshaping teeth mineral layer.
