Efforts to prevent many life threatening diseases spreading by mosquitoes…

Increasing the immunity in mosquitoes shown a hope to prevent many diseases from the biting of mosquitoes. Scientists are trying to prevent diseases like Zika, Dengue, Malaria, Chikungunya, etc. that are spreading through mosquito biting. It is observed that by giving sugar to mosquitoes, the virus will not be able to infect them and diseases will not spread. The incidence of diseases like Zika and Dengue can be reduced by developing anti-viral immunity in mosquitoes. 

In their new experiment, scientists have developed immunity against the virus that spreads these diseases in mosquitoes. Scientists from Switzerland's MRC University of Glasgow Center for Virus Research, who studied, say that after feeding sugar to female Aedes aegypti mosquito that spreads diseases, the virus is not able to spread its infection in them. In this way, they are not able to transmit the virus to humans, and the risk of diseases decreases. 

Why do mosquitoes spread diseases like dengue? Mosquitoes depend on flower nectar for their energy, but they need blood for reproduction. To get this blood, they bite humans. During this time, the virus of diseases like Zika and Dengue present in them reaches humans. Researcher Dr. Emily Pondeville observed, after eating sugar, immunity against the virus increases in mosquitoes, but the reason why this happens is still not clear. However, this can reduce the cases of mosquito-borne diseases worldwide.

How deadly are mosquitoes proving to be? According to the World Mosquito Program, 700 million people worldwide get sick every year from mosquito bites. Of these, 10 lakh people die. Cases of Zika, Yellow Fever, Chikungunya, Malaria, and Dengue are reported in the maximum number of patients. According to the European Center for Disease Control Prevention, the number of yellow fever mosquitoes has increased so much in the last 20 to 30 years that they have become among the most disease-carrying mosquitoes. 

Dengue cases increased 30 times in 50 years- According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the dengue virus infects approx. 400 million people every year and about 25 thousand people die from it. According to the WHO, dengue cases have increased by 30 times in the last 50 years. Dengue virus causes fever and body aches after infection.

Why majority of people gave up eating non-veg' food within decade …

These days non-veg i.e. non-vegetarian food is very much in trend. There are restaurants running exclusively for chicken, mutton, fish, and other types of non-veg dishes. But recent research of Oxford University has revealed that in the last 10 years, about 20 percent of people have decided not to eat non-veg. 

A very shocking reason behind this has come to the fore in research. Indeed, in the UK, there has been an increase in cases of cancer and diabetes type 2 and heart-related diseases among people who eat non-veg. 

Those who used to eat non-veg with passion, they have stopped consuming non-vegetarian food due to this health issue. According to research, in the last 10 years, about 20 percent of people in Britain have given up non-veg food. Research has revealed that due to poor lifestyle and irregular eating, we have started eating anything wildly for the taste of the tongue. 

Due to this, people have come into the grip of many severe diseases in their early stages of life.  These include obesity, diabetes, and high blood pressure. Not only these diseases but also much other life-threatening disease enters to the body through non-veg foods.  According to the report, cancer and diabetes type 2 and heart-related diseases are increasing among people who eat non-veg in the UK. That's why most people have stopped consuming non-veg. 

According to research from Oxford University, people have either reduced or stopped eating non-veg food to stay healthy. For this reason, there has been a sharp decrease in the consumption of red meat there. However, the trend of people towards eating chicken and fish has increased.

Emotions, doshas, nutrition, and 6 tastes as per Ayurveda…..

Each of the 6 tastes produces or enhances a certain emotion when eaten. Thus, emotional disorders may be balanced by eating and avoid foods, according to the taste.

Taste

Emotions

Deranges

Sweet

Desire

Kapha

Sour

Envy

Pitta

Salty

Greed

Kapha

Pungent

Anger

Pitta

Bitter

Grief

Vayu

Astringent

Fear

Vayu


Vayu is balancing by supplementing with moist tastes, sweet, sour, and salty (balancing dryness), and some warm tastes as well. Pitta is balanced by using sweet (moist), bitter and astringent (cooling) tastes. This helps counter heat-related illness (e.g. rashes, infection, and anger impatience). Kapha disease is removed by using sour and pungent tastes (i.e. they heat and burn up water). Bitter taste also reduces Kapha by causing a drying action. 

Sweet: Generally food is sweet in taste, neutral in energy, and sweet in its post-digestive effect. It decreases Vayu and Pitta and increases Kapha. It nourishes and maintains humor, dhatus, and malas (waste). 

Sour: An example of sour taste includes sour fruits, tomatoes, pickles, and vegetables. All tissues are nourished by a sour taste, except reproductive tissues (of the sour taste only yogurt nourishes all tissues).

Pungent: Spices and spicy vegetables do not offer much nutrition, but they stimulate digestion.

Bitter: Vegetables offer little nutrition. They are useful in clearing and cleansing digestive organs, and in aiding digestion, especially if taken before meals (for pitta and Kapha doshas).  

Astringent: This is mainly a secondary taste. Astringent food like green vegetables and unripe apples, provide minerals but do not build tissues. 

Energy: Most foods are neutral in heating and cooling effects. To apply hot or cold therapeutics, appropriate spices and foods are eaten cooked or raw.

Heavy/Light: Most foods tend to be heavy, though, many light foods also exist. Spices can make food lighter. Oils can make them heavier. Foods are also dry or moist. Dryness can be increased by eating dry foods or toast or made moister by frying food or adding liquid.

An unspecified disease may be due to change in lifestyle and food style that ultimately affect gene sequences…

Recently report says that a 6-month-old baby suffering from a strange disease, cannot cry or breathe properly, doctors are also surprised by this rare diseaseLeo, a 6-month-old baby in Canada, is battling a disease that even doctors have no name for. Leo can neither cry nor breathe properly. The doctors are also shocked by his illness. Leo's 32-year-old mother Lucinda Andrew is pleading with doctors to conduct research on the child's treatment and disease. Lucinda gave birth to Leo on March 5 via normal delivery at Medway Maritime Hospital in Canada. After birth, doctors noticed that the child was not able to move. 

The child was examined. The report revealed that Leo is suffering from a genetic condition that affects the protein-coding of the TBCD gene. Such cases are rare. Till now doctors have not been able to give any name to this disease. Lucinda says she wants doctors to research this mysterious disease so that her son can be treated. Leo can't even cry. He has epileptic seizures and has trouble breathing. 

She was placed in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit a few days after birth. The disease also had a bad effect on the brain: On March 11, doctors transferred the child to St. Thomas Hospital for treatment. Doctors say that Leo is suffering from a genetic condition. The disease is directly related to the TBCD gene. Lucinda says, the doctors told me about the disease but scientifically there is no name for this disease. 

The doctors themselves are also surprised. According to Lucinda, due to this disease, Leo's brain has also been affected badly. He has started having epileptic seizures. At present, he is being treated at home with the help of physiotherapy. His hydrotherapy exercise is being done in the pool of water. Lucinda says, even experts know very little about this disease because it is a very rare disease. 

To understand this disease, she did a lot of research with the help of the internet and e-mailed many renowned experts from all over the world. Lucinda believes that research needs to be done on the child's disease so that there can be a ray of hope for its treatment. Lucinda wrote a post about her son on social media. After sharing the post, it came to know that there are 6 more such families whose children are suffering from this genetic disease. 

Lucinda says I have consulted a molecular biologist because the molecular drugs can help in the treatment of this disease. She says I am happy that my son enjoys watching Toy Story on the iPad. He looks happy seeing it.

Male mosquitoes find humans from 10 meters away, they do not suck human blood, yet why do they hover around them? Know the resons.....

Male mosquitoes find humans from 10 meters away, they do not suck human blood, yet why do they hover around them?  As per scientists’ views, Mosquitoes buzzing around in the ear are always annoying, but they don't always come to bother you. Especially, male mosquitoes, because they do not suck human blood. 

The female mosquito only does the work of infecting by sucking human blood. New research says, male mosquitoes are attracted by female mosquitoes and female mosquitoes go to humans, so male mosquitoes also go near to humans but the purpose was not to suck the blood but meet to the female mosquitoes. 

Do you know, what interesting things related to mosquitoes were revealed in recent research? First, let us know, How do these mosquitoes find humans? Scientists say that mosquitoes find humans only from a distance of about 10 meters. The reason for this is carbon-di-oxide ie CO2. Humans take in oxygen and release carbon-di-oxide. Mosquitoes, looking for the source of this CO2, reach humans within a few seconds and start biting. However, the work of biting humans is done by the female mosquito. 

Male mosquitoes depend on the sap of flowers to satisfy their hunger. New research says that even though male mosquitoes do not suck human blood, they are no less than female mosquitoes. According to research published in the Journal of Medical Entomology, until now it was believed that male mosquitoes do not roam around humans, but this is not so. In recent research, It has also been proved. Scientists find out that male mosquitoes also hover around humans, an experiment on Aedes aegypti species was done. Only male mosquitoes of this species were released in one yard. These were monitored with the help of cameras. It was proved during research that they are attracted to humans. At the same time, the female mosquito flies away after sucking the blood of a human. 

Research says, male mosquitoes hang around humans for a long time and rarely sit anywhere. Why do they go to humans when they do not suck blood? Why do male mosquitoes approach humans when they do not suck blood? In answer to this question, scientists say, finding female mosquitoes behind this could be a reason. Usually, female mosquitoes hover around humans to suck blood, so male mosquitoes roam around the same place to breed. Although scientists say, more research is still needed to find out the more precise reason.

   

Do you know the disadvantages of body spray?

The majority of people especially the young generation's ladies and gents are very fond to use costly and branded deodorant, perfumes, and other body sprays. It becomes a need and common fashion in modern societies.  People resort to body spray so that they can get rid of the smell of sweat coming from the body.

What is Nasal Spray Vaccine, what are its benefits...

The whole world is preparing at different levels to deal with the coronavirus. Meanwhile, the nasal vaccine has again come into the limelight. The scientific name of the nasal vaccine is BBV154. This is the first such corona vaccine that has been trialed in India. 

[Nasal spray vaccine for Covid]

There have been two phase trials of the nasal vaccine. At the same time, now the approval for the third trial has also been received from AIIMS. The first trial was done on volunteers for 18 to 60 years; in August the second phase trial was approved. At the same time, the third phase of the trial is still pending. Significantly, the nasal spray vaccine is being made in India by Bharat Biotech. At the same time, research on this type of vaccine is going on in other countries. 

What is Nasal Spray Vaccine? The nasal spray vaccine will be given through the nose rather than by injection that will prepare the immune part inside the nose. The nasal spray is considered more effective because the major part of many diseases passes through the nose. In such a situation, the nasal spray vaccine prepares immunity by going into the inner part of the nose and helps in preventing diseases. 

Benefits of Nasal Spray Vaccine-
  • We will get rid of injections. 
  • Our immunity will be ready inside the nose. 
  • We will get rid of respiratory infections. 
How many doses and how many days will it take? According to sources, the third phase trial is still pending. After which the second dose will probably be given after 28 days. Research is also going on with trials in Australia, British, England including India. Work is going on in this vaccine in China as well. 

The nasal vaccine was used on European cats. Which proved to reduce the virus of Covid-19 by 96 %. The study worked at the Center for Public Health England, a British Government agency. At the same time, in the research of scientists from Lancaster University in England and the Texas Biomedical Research Institute in San Antonio, positive results have also been shown on the lungs from the vaccine.

A person doesn't die instantly, Natural death is a gradual procedure - A review report…

Yoga says that just as we were not born suddenly, it has taken about 9 months for that, in the same way, no person dies suddenly. It takes 9 to 14 days for that. Yoga says that if a person has died a normal death, he can be revived at a certain time, but only Siddha Purush can prove this work. 

Now, let us know how slowly a person dies. It is very much correlated to the air present within the body. When someone dies, we say that his life is gone. The exit of the Prana does not mean the exit of the soul. It means the release of air. There are 10 types of air in our body, out of which basically it is of 5 types very important. 

Everyone's body is made up of five elements. Earth, water, fire, air, and sky. There are five types of air in it - 1. Samana, 2. Prana, 3. Udana, 4. Apana and 5. Vyana.

1. Samana: The work of maintaining balance called Samana is done in the bone. Bones also create balance. It is also responsible for maintaining the temperature in the body.

2. Prana: Prana air tells the movement of our body. This air is basically in the blood.

3. Udana: The meaning of Udana is the air that carries it upwards. It happens in our nervous system.

4. Apana: Apana means air going down. It is present in the juices of the body.

5. Vyana: Meaning of Vyana which acts as fat and meat. It preserves the nature of the body. 

It is believed that when a person is declared dead by the doctor, the same air starts coming out in the next 20 to 25 minutes. After it gets out, the body temperature starts falling and the bones start getting stiff. After this prana comes out between 50 to 65 minutes. After its exit, the blood starts turning into water or pus. After that, the Udan emerges in 6 to 12 hours. 

Yogis say that before the release of Udana, a person can be revived by yogic actions or tantric actions provided that his body is correct or fit to tolerate this action. It is only after its udana goes out that the body actually becomes dead and after that nothing can be done. Then, there is Apana which goes out between about 8 to 18 hours, and again,  Wyann exits. In normal death, it keeps coming out for 10 to 14 days. 

Many of us might be seen at our home or neighbor's house to a person who was going under natural death. First of all, he falls on bed by weakens of strength and then stop eating slowly and then stop drinking and slowly all his or her activities get down and finally he or she get death. 

But nowadays, the young generation might not be able to see Natural death because of the lifestyle and food style and so on…Pranayama is the practice of stopping the mind from the winds of prana, vyana, Apana, Samana, etc. By doing pranayama, the body attains a long life. In the Vedas and Yoga, there are descriptions of 8 types of air in the body, in which the soul moves. Prana is also called Ayu, that is, a long life can be achieved through Pranayama. According to the Vedas, 7 types of air are mentioned in the universe.

Eyes will reveal heart disease and many more....

Eyes will reveal heart disease: The scanning report of the retina will tell how much the risk of heart disease and stroke, the blood circulation of the eyes indicates these diseases; American researchers claim. A simple eye test will reveal your risk of heart disease. This test will be able to know how much the human is at risk of heart disease and stroke. 

[Human Eyes can reveal diseases]

American researchers say, by examining the retina, it can be told how low blood circulation is in the human eye. The same thing indicates heart diseases. This claim has been made by researchers from the University of California, San Diego, in their recent research. 

How eye test gives accurate results?  Researchers say, if the blood circulation in the body is reduced or not enough, it also affects the retinal cells of the eyes. Dr. Matthew Beckham, a retina surgeon at the University of California, says its investigation can reduce the risk of heart diseases in the future. According to research, heart disease named ischemia can be detected by examining the retina. In such a situation, the oxygen level in the body drops, and the risk of damage to the arteries increases. 

Scientists at the University of California are planning that any patients who show symptoms of ischemia in a retinal test will be referred to cardiologists. Researchers say, to understand eye diseases from the retina, Scientists made a research on more than 13000 patients. The retinas of these patients were examined between the years 2014 and 2019. In this test, heart disease was confirmed in 84 people. Of these 84, 58 were suffering from coronary heart disease. At the same time, 26 patients had a stroke attack. In both diseases, the direct connection of the patient was related to blood circulation. 

Why is a retina test necessary? With the help of a retina tests, experts diagnose diseases like glaucoma and macular hole. It is a simple test and patients do not have to go through any kind of pain during this. Researchers say, usually until a person does not suffer from heart disease, tests related to it are not done. In such a situation, the examination of the retina will be able to tell the condition of the patient's eyes as well as his heart. If the risk of heart disease is detected in time, it can be prevented through diet and exercise.   

More than millions of people in the world suffer from a heart attack every year. These cases are increasing year after year, so it needs to be controlled.

WHO approves first malaria vaccine........

World gets malaria vaccine: WHO approves first malaria vaccine, will start with African countries; Every year more than 3 lakh cases are coming in India. World Health Organization (WHO) has approved the first malaria vaccine RTS, S/AS01 in the world. It will start from African countries most affected by malaria. After this, the focus of WHO will be on funding arrangements to make malaria vaccine worldwide, so that this vaccine can reach every needy country. 

[Mosquito that causes Malaria]


After this, the governments of the respective countries will decide whether they include the vaccine in the measures to control malaria. The WHO has said that this vaccine has brought great hope for the countries, that are most affected by malaria.

More than 3 lakh cases of malaria in India every year: Children under the age of 5 are at the highest risk of malaria. Every two minutes a child dies of malaria. In 2019, there were 4.09 lakh deaths approx. due to malaria worldwide, of which about 67% were children, whose age was less than 5 years. In the year, 2015, India had the highest 384 deaths due to malaria. Since then the death toll has steadily decreased and there were more than 3 lakh 38 thousand cases of malaria in India in 2019 but about 50 people only died.  

Vaccine trials completed in African countries: The malaria vaccine RTS, S/AS01 was used in 2019 as a pilot program in Ghana, Kenya, and Malawi. Under this, 23 lakh children were given the vaccine, based on its results, the WHO has now approved the vaccine. This vaccine was first made in 1987 by the GSK company. 

Severe cases will be 30% less: According to the results of the pilot project, the malaria vaccine is safe and can prevent 30% of severe cases. Of the children given this vaccine, two-thirds were those who did not have mosquito nets. It has also been revealed that the malaria vaccine does not have any negative effect on other vaccines or other measures to prevent malaria. The WHO recommends giving children in sub-Saharan African countries 4 doses of malaria vaccine by the age of two. This vaccine neutralizes Plasmodium falciparum. Plasmodium falciparum is one of the five parasites that cause malaria and is the most dangerous. 

According to the WHO, 4 out of every 10 malaria cases can be prevented by the vaccine, and 3 out of 10 people can be saved in severe cases. According to the WHO, malaria causes 4.10 lakh deaths worldwide every year, most of them children from African countries. Half of all malaria deaths worldwide occur in six sub-Saharan African countries. A quarter of these cases are from Nigeria. These are the major symptoms of malaria • Chills       • high fever  • Headache   • Sore Throat  • sweat  • Tiredness  • Restlessness • Vomiting • Anemia• Muscle pain   • Bloody diarrhea etc.

Vaccination is over; just eat the plant......

Scientists are doing unique research to eliminate the fear of injection of Covid Vaccines among the public. According to them, as soon as the plant is eaten a sufficient dose of vaccine will reach the body. American scientists are trying to develop such plants. Let's know how much will change with this vaccine. Pfizer and Moderna have prepared their Covid vaccine with mRNA technology. 

[Covid vaccine with Syringe]

Scientists from the University of California are trying to deliver this mRNA to plants. On hearing the name of the vaccine, many people start to fear the needle. American scientists are trying to eliminate this fear. They are developing such a plant, after eating which the vaccine will reach humans. It will be started with the Covid vaccine. If you understand in easy language, then people will be given the vaccine of Covid by feeding them saplings. 

Researchers at the University of California Riverside, USA, are developing the vaccine plant. They told that with the help of the plant, they are trying to transmit the mRNA vaccine of the corona to humans. How will the vaccine reach the plants? How will it be stored? What will be the benefits of this new method of vaccine and how much will change? These are the common questions that may be understood with the following phenomenon. 

First of all, know how the covid vaccine prepared from mRNA technology works, Pfizer and Moderna have used mRNA technology to prepare their vaccine. Earlier this technique was rarely used. Recently, the use of this technology is increasing after the preparation of the Covid vaccine. Many companies are using mRNA technology to make flu vaccines. 

The Covid vaccine prepared with this technology trains the immune system fighting diseases on how the spike protein of the coronavirus is? After this training, the body becomes capable of understanding the spike protein. Whenever the corona infects the body, the immune system recognizes the spike protein of that virus and tries to eliminate it. 

Now we should understand how much will change with such a vaccine. Researchers say the technology with which Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna have prepared the Covid vaccine, we are trying to prepare the vaccine with the same technology and transmit it to humans through plants they stated that plants are easily digested while there is a risk of side effects after taking the vaccine by syringe. Vaccines given in the form of plants will be easier to maintain and transport. If plants are kept at low temperatures, there will be no risk of spoilage of the vaccine present in it. 

If this experiment is successful, the vaccine plant will be a boon for low-income countries. Where the storage and transportation of these plants will be easier and the cost will also be less compared to the current vaccine of Covid. 

How many plants would a human need for a vaccine? The answer is only one. According to researcher Juan Pablo of the University of California, a plant will make enough mRNA for a human and it can be vaccinated. Our goal is to reach the vaccine through plants, for this, we are growing spinach and lettuce in our garden. Farmers will also be able to grow it in the entire field. Scientists will deliver mRNA to the plant's chloroplast. Researchers believe that chloroplasts present in plants can handle mRNA. It is clear that it has a lot of potentials. 

Let us understand what is chloroplast? Actually, the pigment due to which the color of plants is green is called the chloroplast. A team of scientists is trying to figure out how to transport and preserve mRNA in this chloroplast for a long time. If this experiment is successful, it will work as an oral vaccine. 

No need to store the vaccine at -130 degrees. The current mRNA vaccine requires a temperature of -130°C and dry ice to store it. Such maintenance makes the vaccine costly and difficult to deliver in rural areas. But vaccine plants can be easily grown. It can cover a long distance.

Simple identification of original Arrowroot starch powder......

Arrowroot powder is obtained from the fresh or dried, mature, and peeled roots of the Maranta arundinacea (Family - Marantaceae). Nowadays, starch is obtained from many starchy roots like Ipomea batatas (sweet potato), Manihot esculanta (kandmool or maravalli kizhangu), Curcuma augustifolia (tikhur or East Indian arrowroot). 

Many of Ayurveda and Siddha preparation requires original arrowroot powder or its refined and purified starch grains. But it is very difficult to find out real arrowroot powder or starch in absence of clear-cut identification in various Indian Pharmacopoeias. Now the question is how to then identify the real arrowroot powder to prepare an authentic medicine with good potency and efficacy.

In market maximum adulteration to arrowroot powder made with the starch of Manihot esculanta, which is commonly called Tapioca starch in the open market. Maranta arundinacea and  Manihot esculanta, both showed more or less similar resemblances externally but no worry, here, I will give you the best and simplest ideas to identify the material in order to get an adulterated one. 

Characteristics of Arrowroot powder and starch: Arrowroot starch will be pure white color but the powder will be light cream or off white color. Under the microscope, the starch of arrowroot powder exhibits circular, oval, or pear-shaped with a diameter of 20 to 40 µ, occasionally even unto 75 µ, with concentric striations and a central or lateral, linear or crossed hilum.

Characteristics of kandmoola or maravalli kizhangu powder and starch: It will be pure white in the market just like rice powder and gives a creaking sound when pressed in between the fingers. The main distinguishing characters are the shape and hilum of the starch grains. The shape is irregular, oval, half dumb-bell shaped, half-barrel shaped, triangular, and size varies from 15 to 55 µ., The hilum is linear or concentric.

Both types of starch can be easily distinguished when place under the microscope due to their unique characters. I hope, the above ideas of identification would surely help many business people, research scholars, and manufacturing companies to get unadulterated and genuine material.
