This symptom indicates Covid-19 infection even after fully vaccinated…

The outbreak of the second wave of coronavirus is still giving fear to us, however, the majority of people are seen on the streets without making distance from people, not wearing masks and the people who have got fully vaccinated, observed not to follow any Covid protocols.    Perhaps, the public forgot that scene when patients were fighting a dangerous struggle between death and life. 

Misunderstandings are being created in the minds of the public that nothing will happen to them after vaccination. At the same time many people raising questions that even after getting the vaccine, the corona has to happen, then why is vaccination important?

Even after getting the vaccine, it is necessary to wear a mask. Because the virus is still among us. Follow Covid protocols. Keep a distance of a minimum of two yards, sanitize your hands and wear a mask properly. Stay at home. Go out only when very much necessary. Do not go to crowded places. Covid is continuously mutating. Keep a distance in the shop or public places.

Please note, the second wave is not completely over. Even today thousands of cases are being received in many states and cities. At the same time, the possibility of a third consecutive wave is being expressed by experts. It is also to be said that if people move carelessly in this way, then the third wave cannot be avoided under any circumstances. The chances of the third wave coming soon will increase further.

Let us know what is the use of the Covid vaccine when there is no guaranty to be free from infection even after vaccination?

Actually, many people have come under the grip of corona even after vaccination but they did not need to go to the hospital. He got cured by taking treatment at home. The severity of the virus decreases after vaccination. But if anybody got fully vaccinated and after the vaccination, he or she gets the following symptoms, it means there is a chance of Covid infection either minor or major, and needs isolation plus consultation of doctors.

·         Running nose
·         No smell
·         Sore throat
·         Headache
·         Having a cold 

If the following symptoms have appeared before vaccination that also means the chance of Covid is there - 

·         Headache
·         Fever with chills

·         Sore throat
·         Running nose

·         Having a cough

·         Sore feet

Please do not be careless. We should control ourselves and not give any chances to further 

lockdown because we already suffered by all means.

Identification of varieties of Cumins (Jeera) to get actual therapeutic values without adulteration...

Cumin seeds play an important role in spices categories as well as medicinal demands. There are many varieties of Cumins however, I will discuss with few main varieties that are still get confused due to lack of their identifications and utilized in the single name "Cumin - Jeera" but it is scientifically proved that all cumin varieties have different medicinal properties and due to lack of identification the consumers are being cheated by the traders due to single so-called name JEERA (Cumin). Mostly all the cumins can't be used for similar purposes and how do we get real Cumin that actually requires us. This is the question frequently trending in the consumer's mind.

In this article, I will try to solve your queries in a very simple manner so that you may yourself be able to identify the Cumins that you actually require. So, I am going to tell about the differences among the common cumin or white cumin (Jeera), black cumin (Kala jeera), Black cumin seeds (kalonji), shah jeera, or Persian cumin (Carum carvi), and Kali Jeeri. Yes !! I could understand that readers going to get confused with similar words but have little patience, I have a solution for you. 

Really, Once I entered the spice market, I also got confused with the similar pronouncing Cumins and I become very much curious to know when I observed that the shopkeeper themselves got very much confusion then, there is a need arise to get rid of from the entire confusion and then, I have collected sample from the different shops and taken to our lab for identifications. The result is as follows- 

Cumin (Jeera – Cuminum cyminum; Family- Apiaceae) is called common cumin and is used in every household as normal spices as you might know that cumin is not only used for tempering food but is full of many medicinal properties. Fruits are used as a condiment in curry powders and for flavoring dishes. They are considered carminative, stomachic, and astringent, useful in dyspepsia and diarrhea. Yield an essential oil used for flavoring liqueurs and cordials, also in perfumery. Besides the volatile oil, fruits contain also a fixed oil with a strong aromatic flavor.

(Jeera – Cuminum cyminum; Family- Apiaceae)

Black cumin (Bunium persicum OR Carum persicum or Kala Jeera or Caraway comes from the family Apiaceae)    which is slightly different and bitter in taste from the common cumin used in most households. It is also called Siah- jeera in Hindi. It is very helpful in reducing body weight, stomachache, toothache, removing immune disorders, antiseptic, relaxing headache, etc. Fruits are used in the spice in the same way which is imported under the common trade name Kala-jeera or Siah-jeera. The same trade name is also applied to seeds of Nigella sativa (Kalonji)  but the Cuminum cyminum, Carum carvi, Bunium persicum, and Nigella sativa, these are all scientifically different from each other and the therapeutic values also varying except one or two is observed commonly.

[Black cumin (Bunium persicum- Kala jeera]

Black cumin seeds are scientifically known as Nigella sativa. The plant belongs to the family Ranunculaceae and is in no way related to family Umbelliferae or Apiaceae, the true family for Cumin. The seeds of Nigella sativa have a great demand in medicinal industries. Seeds are used as a carminative, stimulant, diuretic, emmenagogue, and mild cases of puerperal fever also used as a flavoring agent and externally applied in skin complaints. Seeds yield an essential oil and can positively be used in cough and bronchial asthma. They also yield edible fatty oil. Antibacterial properties of the seed extract can be used as a stabilizing agent for edible fats.

Shah jeera or Persian cumin or Carum carvi belongs to the family Umbelliferae (Apiaceae). Is also known as Wilayati jeera in various states of India. Dried fruits are widely used as spice and flavoring bread. meat sausage, vegetables. It has many medicinal properties like stomachic, carminative, flatulent colic, etc.

Fruits of Shah jeera - Carum carvi

Kali Jeeri (also spelled as Kalijiri & Kaali Jeeri) is the seed of the plant Centratherum anthelminticum (Asteraceae; Compositae). It is commonly called Somraj in Hindi. It has great anthelmintic properties.  It is popular in combination with Ajwain and Methi for reducing weight and improving digestive health. It is used for the treatment of skin diseases in which helps to reduce itching and skin irritation. It is believed to be the blood purifier (correctly detoxifier) because it removes the toxins from the blood and increases their elimination. Kali Jeeri is an excellent Ayurvedic medicine for roundworm, tapeworm, and threadworm, which can also be present in the gut. It also increases appetite, but its bitter taste may provoke nausea in some bitter taste-sensitive people.

Kali Jeeri also promotes hair growth. It helps to control the blood glucose level. It is also beneficial for people with postprandial hyperglycemia (rise in blood glucose level following a meal).

Infertility increases in woman - may be the following main reasons....

Infertility is becoming a serious problem among women. In such a situation, due to lack of fertility, couples have to face difficulties in conceiving. According to experts, there can be many reasons for infertility in women, such as ovulation disorders, damage to the fallopian tubes, endometriosis, and problems related to the uterus or cervix, etc. Experts say that if the symptoms are detected and treated on time, then infertility can be cured. Let us know, according to the doctor, about some of the symptoms that can indicate infertility. 

[Image shows: Some important causes of infertility]

Endometriosis- Endometriosis is a problem in which a tissue found inside the uterus grows and spreads outside the uterus. This tissue can spread to the outer parts of the ovaries, fallopian tubes or uterus, and to other parts. In this condition, some women have less pain than normal during periods or not at all, while there are many women who have to face a lot of pain and cramps during periods. Apart from this, the duration of their periods lasts for a long time. 

Having endometriosis can cause severe pain during periods. Some other symptoms of endometriosis include irregular periods and spotting, chronic pelvic pain (not only during menstruation), pain in passing bowel movements, pain during sex, back pain, fatigue, nausea, etc.

Irregularity in the menstrual cycle- An irregular cycle, which includes missed periods, can lead to infertility. Ovulation does not happen regularly due to irregular periods. Ovulation irregularities can be caused by a number of factors including polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), obesity, being underweight, and thyroid problems.

Hormonal problems- Due to fluctuations in hormones, many types

of symptoms start appearing in the body. These include acne, cold

hands and feet decreased sex drive, decreased sexual desire, nipple

discharge, increased facial hair, thinning of head hair, weight gain,

etc. Consult a doctor if you see such symptoms.

Pain during sex- Dyspareunia, or pain during sex, is a problem that

can affect a woman's fertility. Infections, endometriosis, and fibroids

are some of the problems that can cause pain during sex.

Observation of blood color during menstruation- The blood is usually bright red in color at the beginning of menstruation and may darken over the next few days. If your menstrual blood is lighter than normal or it is very dark in the initial days of menstruation, then it could be a sign of infertility.

Obesity- Women who are obese are less likely to conceive and are also more likely to have problems during pregnancy than others.

Other problems- PCOS, premature menopause, cancer, cancer treatments, damage to the ovaries or fallopian tubes, endometriosis, etc. can cause infertility.

Tests such as hysterosalpingography, endometrial biopsy, laparoscopy, hormone checkups can determine the cause of infertility. After this, the appropriate treatment options can be chosen. These include surgery due to blockage in fallopian tubes or ovarian cysts, IVF (in-vitro fertilization), intrauterine insemination, ICSI (intracytoplasmic sperm injection), egg donation, GIFT (gamete intrafallopian tube transfer), and ZIFT (zygote intrafallopian transfer).

According to experts, a healthy lifestyle can reduce the problem of infertility to a great extent. Consuming a limited amount of caffeine, avoiding alcohol and smoking, maintaining body weight, and reducing stress can help to a great extent.
