Physicians from Stockholm University have come to conclusion, that regular consumption of alcohol twice reduces risk of development of atrophic arthritis at person. Scientists have analyzed almost 3 thousand case records.

As the research has shown, at people who consume volume of pure alcohol similar five glasses of wine a week, the probability of development of arthritis is cut by half in comparison with those who consumes smaller dozes of alcohol. Thus scientists emphasize, that much greater dozes of alcohol are certainly harmful.

The 12-years Scots girl put by parents on a strict vegetarian diet, has got in hospital with heavy infringement of bone tissue development. Her backbone is similar to a backbone of the 80-years old woman.

Parents of the girl since her birth have excluded meat and dairy products from her diet. Because of the vitamin D lack the heavy form of rickets at the child led to degeneration of bones and, as consequence, propensities to crises and a curvature of a backbone has developed.

The attending physician of the girl Fajzal Ahmed from Glasgow Royal Hospital for sick children has refused to make comments on this case, having noted, nevertheless, danger of a strict vegetarian diet to children’s health. Now social workers understand, whether cruel treatment with children takes place in this case.

A special kind of bread for women is created in Great Britain. Its main difference is the increased contents of vitamin D which often is named «sunlight vitamin», because under the sun influence it is formed in an organism natural by.

Vitamin D is especially important for a fine half of mankind: its lack negatively influences bones condition and can lead to a bony rarefication.

According to researches, more than 65 % of women living in large cities, test catastrophic deficiency of vitamin D: their way of life does not assume long walks on fresh air, therefore the contents of vitamin in an organism is extremely low.

Authors of the useful invention are the experts of medical-diet agencies “The Food Doctor”. They hope that special “female” bread will help city inhabitants to improve their state of health. And also, as doctor Elis Sykes assures, such bread is not only extremely useful, but it is also very tasty.

Scientists have found out, that nitrates from fruit and vegetables are capable to protect stomach mucous from damages. Owing to mouth bacteria nitrates turn to nitrites which become nitrogen oxide in a stomach, it is the biologically active substance which stimulates protective mechanisms of a stomach mucous membrane. Basically it happens due to expansion of blood vessels mucous and regulation of slime allocation. These factors influence mucous resistibility against damages.

Obtained data testify also that antibacterial conditioners for mouth harm an organism, destroying the bacteria transforming nitrates in nitrites.

«Our experiment shows, the mouth microflora is very important. These bacteria not only are connected with hygiene of a mouth, they influence the work of all gastroenteric path. Also new data emphasize once again, that fruit and vegetables are very important for health.» — the head of research speaks.

Scientists of Stockholm Institute obtained the new data concerning regulation mechanisms of fat exchange. They confirm that in a person organism there is a continuous process of formation and disintegration of fatty cells. At people with excess weight it is formed more cells, than at people with normal weight. Researches of Swedish scientists show, that formation of new fatty cells happens on all extent of human life and at any weight — in volume of 10 % a year while the total amount of cells — both at thin, and at fat — remains constant.

“This amount is constant, as annually 10 % of fatty cells die in an organism. In other words, the formation of new cells is balanced due to disintegration of old ones”, — Professor Peter Arner, the head of research, speaks.

During carrying out of experiments Swedish physicians developed a line of new research methods. They could define the age of cells and have managed to install the connection between the cells size and the total amount of fat at the big number of people with various body weights. Researches have shown, that speed of cells replacement of people with excess weight is twice more, than of people with normal weight, and it does not depend on that, the person grows thin or not. Though at the people which have grown thin a part of cells loses fat and is in an inactive condition.

“The received results can explain, why it is difficult to keep weight after growing thin: new cells should be filled with fat too, therefore the risk, that the person will collect again the lost kgs increases”, — speaks Arner.
