Development of Silicosis detection kit is boon on medical field….

Silicosis is a deadly disease related to the respiratory system, makes the patient difficult to breathe.  The Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) has developed a new test kit to detect silicosis, a lung disease. With the help of test kits, this disease can be detected before it becomes serious. Early detection of silicosis is also important because once the condition worsens, it becomes difficult for the patient to recover as before. Silicosis is a lung disease. 

A mineral called silica is found in sand, soil, and dust. In workers living around it or working in such an environment, silica particles reach the lungs through inhalation. Gradually their number keeps on increasing and the lungs keep getting damaged. Over time, the silica particles damage the lungs so much that it becomes difficult for the patient to breathe. This is said to be the most severe stage of silicosis. If you understand in a common language, then the lungs stop working properly. Silicosis increases the risk of many other diseases. These include tuberculosis, lung cancer, and chronic bronchitis.

How to diagnose this disease- There is no specific test to diagnose this disease. Doctors diagnose it on the basis of symptoms. For example, how does it feel to breathe while resting or walking? Get job-related information. No specific changes or symptoms are seen in the patients. Information on past medical records is taken. Apart from this, experts recommend getting some tests done in case of danger. These tests tell about the condition of the patient's lungs.

Treatment of silicosis- There is no exact cure for this disease. Once the disease occurs again, the patient cannot be cured as before. Only through treatment can the rate of progression of the disease be slowed down. It is advised to stay away from smoking. As a treatment, with the help of a bronchodilator, the airways are relieved and an attempt is made to reduce the swelling. Sometimes oxygen is also given to the patient.

Sleeping less than seven and a half hours a day can reduce thinking ability and memory……

Taking less and more sleep than necessary, both are not good for health. The ability to think and understand decreases in such people. Researchers from Washington University have made this claim in their research. Researcher and neurologist Dr. Brendan Lucy say, due to incomplete sleep or not sleeping properly, there is a direct effect on the brain. This effect on the brain is visible in your ability to think and understand. How many hours of sleep should a person get on average and what to do if he does not sleep, according to the latest research, it is found that 7.30 hours of sleep is the best remedy for good health for a person. 

[Have a Good Sleep with sweet dreams]

Researchers say, if you are getting 8 hours of sleep and set the alarm 30 minutes earlier, then seven and a half hours of sleep has a positive effect on the brain. Good and sound sleep reduces the risk of Alzheimer's disease. Research on the effects of good sleep for 7.30 hours had been conducted on about 100 elderly people with an average age of 75 years. For research, a small monitor was tied on the forehead of these elders. The type of activity in the brain during sleep was checked with a monitor and recorded. The research that lasted an average of four and a half years revealed that it has a good effect on brain activity. 

A special type of protein is responsible for Alzheimer's disease in patients. What is the level of that protein in the cerebrospinal fluid of the brain of the elderly involved was checked in the research? Patients who slept for about 7.5 hours each night had better cognitive scores. At the same time, people who slept 5 or five and a half hours a day got this score lower. 

Sleep has a direct link to Alzheimer's- Earlier research had revealed that there is a connection to Alzheimer's disease with half-depleted sleep. Symptoms of Alzheimer's include memory loss, confusion, and a delay in understanding new things. If we want to avoid them, then we must take at least seven and a half hours of sleep.

4-7-8 Technique also relieves insomnia- If there is no sleep at night, then you can adopt the 4-7-8 breathing technique. It has been prepared by Dr. Andrew Weil, a scientist at the University of Arizona, USA. This technique is based on Pranayama. If you adopt this technique for a long time, then you start falling asleep quickly. To do this, sit or lie down in a comfortable position in a quiet place with the correct posture. If you are using this technique for sleep then it is better to lie down. Now put the front part of the tongue with the palate just behind the teeth. Keep it like this throughout the practice, and then start to follow the 4-7-8 technique.

What is the 4-7-8 Technique? Yes. This is a scientifically proven deep breathing style that works before going to bed. Take a deep breath in and count 1-4 and then hold breathe and count 1-7 and release your breath by counting 1-8. Repeat this technique minimum of 10 times surely, it will relax your brain and make you ready to go to deep sleep.

If you can't sleep, drink lukewarm milk- In recent research by Chinese scientists, it has been proved that drinking lukewarm milk leads to good sleep. Research by the National Natural Science Foundation of China has revealed that an amino acid called tryptophan is found in milk. Apart from this, research also revealed that milk peptide casein hydrolysate is also found in it, which reduces stress and improves sleep. Together these two things remove the problem of insomnia.

Wearing a mask is dangerous for children younger than 2 years old…

Japanese expert's warning: Wearing a mask is dangerous for children younger than 2 years old; it increases body heat and pressure on the heart. 

Children under 2 years of age have very small air passages from the nose to the lungs America's CDC and Academy of Pediatrics also said that covering the mouth of young children is harmful. Literacy experts also believe that after the lockdown opens, it will not be easy to follow social distancing, in such a situation it is necessary to wear a mask. 

Research has also revealed that wearing a mask can prevent up to 90% of the coronavirus. But, in the meantime, Japan's medical group "Japan Pediatric Association" has issued an important warning for parents. In this, children under the age of 2 years have been told that it is dangerous to wear a mask. 

There may be difficulty in breathing-Wearing a mask for young children not only makes it difficult for them to breathe. But the risk of suffocation also increases. The association says that children under the age of 2 have very small air passages from their nose to their lungs. In such a situation, wearing a mask also increases the pressure on their heart. Apart from this, due to increased heat in the body, there can also be a risk of heatstroke in children. 

American organizations also said - children are harmed by masks- 

The US Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the American Academy of Pediatrics have also said that covering the mouth of children under 2 years of age with a cloth is harmful.

Keep blood pressure under control to prevent memory loss in old age…

If you want to prevent memory loss in old age, then keep blood pressure under control. Recent research by international researchers says high blood pressure is also affecting your memory. At the age of 30 to 40, if your blood pressure remains elevated, and then control it as it increases the risk of dementia. 

The risk was seen in 61 percent of the people- To understand the effect between blood pressure and falling memory, ie dementia, research was done on 2.50 lakh people in Britain. Their age was between 35 and 44 years and they were battling with high blood pressure. The MRI report revealed that 61 percent of these people are at risk of memory loss in the future. This research has been done by a team of international researchers. 

Brain shrinking of people with high BP-Researchers found in their research that the brain shrinks due to high blood pressure. A connection was found between its size reduction and dementia. Research says that people over the age of 35 whose blood pressure has increased, their brain is shrinking more. If high blood pressure is not controlled then the condition can worsen. 

Silent killer (HBP) is increasing heart patients- In 2019, the British Heart Foundation estimated that 4 million people between the ages of 30 and 40 in the UK were suffering from high blood pressure. According to researchers, cases of heart attack and stroke are increasing due to high BP, which is called the 'silent killer'. Experts say blood pressure can be messed up due to stress, infection, medicines, and even lack of water. The matter of concern is that there are a large number of people who do not understand the increasing and decreasing blood pressure. This condition leads to serious diseases and death later on. That is why it is also called the silent killer.

150 million people worldwide are battling high blood pressure (HBP)- WHO says, currently 150 crore people worldwide are suffering from hypertension. In 2019, 1.79 crore people died due to heart diseases. High blood pressure is responsible for one-third of these deaths. This is also because hypertensive patients do not understand this disease. Its symptoms are not visible. As a result, there are incidents like heart attacks in the patients. 

Some important facts to control High Blood Pressure-

1. Smoking increases BP for 20 minutes- This is necessary because Nicotine makes the walls of the arteries hard by shrinking them. Apart from this, it also plays a role in blood clotting. It takes 20 minutes for the heartbeat to return to normal after a person smokes a cigarette. So it is better to leave it.

2. If We reduce the weight by 1 kg, then BP will also be reduced by 1 point - According to the Mayo Clinic, if an overweight person with obesity loses one kilogram, blood pressure decreases by 1 mm Hg (roughly 1 point). Not only this but blood pressure is also related to the waist. If the waist of a man is more than 40 inches and that of a woman is more than 35 inches, then its risk is high.

3. Do not eat more than 5 grams of salt in daily food- This is important because a young person should have less than 5 grams of salt in a day's diet. The equivalent of one teaspoon of salt contains about 2,300 mg of sodium. By reducing this amount of sodium in the food, 5 to 6 point BP can be reduced.

4. Less than 5 to 8 points BP with 30 minutes of exercise- According to research published in the National Institute of Health, if you walk for 30 minutes a day, then there is a reduction in blood pressure by 5 to 8 points. However, the walk should be done continuously; otherwise, the blood pressure may rise again. Apart from this, jogging, cycling, and dancing also reduce blood pressure.

 

Spend some moments in the midst of nature in returns get good health and get longevity.....

If we do gardening or exercise in the midst of nature, the mind remains happy, the restlessness goes away; American scientists also confirmed. If we want to keep our minds happy, then we should spend time in the midst of nature. If we do gardening and exercise in natural places, then the restlessness goes away and the mind feels better. The man stays away from mental problems. 

This claim has been made by researchers from York University in England in their recent research. Researchers say, what effect does activity among nature have on a person's mental health.  Research has revealed that between 8 and 12 weeks, if a person spends 20 to 90 minutes in nature, then he feels better mentally. 

Researcher Dr. Peter Coventry says we know that spending some time in the midst of nature is good for health. But research has proved that it is equally good for mental health. Activities related to gardening, exercise, and protection of plants amidst nature refresh the mind. If we spend time in the group, we get more benefit in such places and do different types of positive activities, then the mental health is more beneficial. 

It is also revealed that spending time with nature is an investment for good health. Research has explained the benefits for mental health, but there is no evidence related to how much such outdoor activities benefit the body. There is a need to understand its short-term and long-term benefits in the next phase of research.

 

Risk of stroke observed in people, suffering from low-blood pressure…

Most people know that high blood pressure is the main cause of stroke, but in recent research, another reason has come into existence. New research says, low-blood pressure also causes a stroke. This claim has been made by Boston University School of Medicine researcher Dr. Hugo J. Apricio in his research. According to the researcher, 10 percent of patients suffering from low blood pressure are at risk of stroke. 

To understand the connection between low blood pressure and stroke, scientists had studied 30,000 elderly people who had suffered an ischemic stroke. Of these, a case of stroke came 18 months ago. 

The researchers say, their health data suggests that patients who smoked, had heart patients, or were suffering from dementia or cancer were at an even higher risk of stroke. Research data shows that not only high blood pressure, low blood pressure can also cause a stroke. 

Risk factors need to be reduced-

Researchers say, to avoid the risk of stroke, along with keeping an eye on low blood pressure, there is a need to protect yourself from its risk factors. So stay away from smoking. Adopt a lifestyle that reduces the risk of heart diseases and cancer.

Keep these things in mind to keep low-blood pressure normal-

•  Keep a low amount of salt in the food. Salt plays an important role in keeping the body's blood pressure normal.

• Keep the body hydrated with at least 8 glasses of water or other liquid (milk, whey, juice, lassi, etc) throughout the day.

• Avoid taking the stress and stay away from cigarettes, alcohol, or other drugs.

• Include more green vegetables and fruits in the daily diet.

• Avoid eating high carbohydrate things.

Electronic nose, a wonderful device to detect life threatening diseases….

 A new way of testing e-nose: 'nose' that smells diseases, with this electronic nose, diseases like liver, lung and colon cancer will be able to detect. 

Scientists are developing new types of tests to identify diseases. An electronic nose or e-nose is the best example of this type of modern test. Diseases like liver, lung, and colon cancer can be detected through electronic noses. 

To check for diseases, this nose has to be applied like a mask on your nose and the disease will be detected within a few seconds.UK Biotech company Oulstone Medical, who prepared it, says that work is also being done to detect Covid with the help of an electronic nose (e-nose).  

According to the research, usually, the patient does not feel comfortable while giving blood, urine, and stool samples, but the new test will prove to be very easy for the patients and will also take very least time. 

Now the question is how Electronic Nose Works? 

This e-nose detects the disease by detecting the smell of disease coming from the patient's breath. Scientists say that when humans exhale, there are more than 3500 Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) in it. It consists of extremely small gas particles and microscopic droplets. E-nose detects chemicals present in volatile organic compounds and thus detects diseases. 

It took 51 years to make the device. The idea of ​​​​creating it came to scientists in 1970 itself, but it took decades to convert this idea into a sensitive device, programming to recognize volatile organic compounds, and creating sensors. Its trial is going on in many countries around the world. The results, especially in the UK, have been impressive. 

Experts say, in the next five years, the test done through e-nose will become like a routine test. Continuous work is being done on this. Scientists say it is being tried that the device can also tell which medicine will be better for the patient according to the disease. 

Using the same technology for cancer screening-

Through this technique, clinical trials related to breathing are going on in many countries around the world. It also includes trials related to cancer. The goal of the trial is to detect cancer early. The trial is being conducted on 4000 patients in UK hospitals in collaboration with Cambridge University and the NHS Foundation.

 

New medicine to fight infection, a latest findings.....

A medicine made from cinnamon and berry is tried to relieve urinary tract infection and pain; a human trial started in Paris. Medicine made from cinnamon and berry can remove pain and infection. Scientists are testing the drug. This trial is being done for a disease called cystitis.

As we know the women are the most affected by this disease. Scientists believe the new drug will prevent E-coli and other bacteria responsible for the infection from spreading the infection. Now the question is how is this medicine work and what is cystitis which most women suffer from? let us describe first that the medicine is prepared by mixing cinnamon, berry, and healthy bacteria. If understood in simple language, a structure named P-fimbri is found on the body of bacteria. With the help of this, the bacteria strengthen their hold on the wall of the urinary tract of the person. As a result, it gradually increases the infection.

The new drug targets this p-fimbri structure and prevents the bacteria from spreading their infection. The trans-cinnamaldehyde present in cinnamon and the chemical elements present in the berry make it difficult for bacteria to survive in the urinary tract. In this way, the infection is stopped from progressing. At the same time, the beneficial bacteria present in the medicine work to protect the immune cells of the bladder wall. 

What is cystitis? The new drug that will treat it is inflammation and irritation in the bladder are called cystitis. In most cases, it is caused by a bacterial infection. When this infection reaches the kidney from the bladder, the condition becomes more serious. It is usually treated with antibiotics. According to research reports, 50 to 60 percent of women suffer from infection like cystitis at some point in their life.

There is also a reason why most of its cases are reported in women. In fact, the urethra is shorter in women than in men. Therefore, it becomes easier for bacteria to reach the bladder. Patients look tired when infected. Apart from bacteria, medicines given in diarrhea and nausea can also be the cause. 

Antibiotics are given to the patient during the treatment, but these drugs, which are slowly neutralizing the bacteria, are making treatment difficult. Trial of new drug going on in Paris. This drug has proved effective in early clinical trials. After this, the human trial of the new drug is going on the women aged 18 to 65 years at the Alfred Fournier Institute in Paris. These are women who have suffered from cystitis at least twice in the last 6 months. 

The women involved in the trial are being given one tablet twice a day. Groups of women taking and not taking the drug will be compared in the trial for about 6 months. After that, the results will be released.  

New vaccine is being ready to prevent Breast Cancer….

The first human trial of breast cancer vaccine started in America claims; This will prevent the most dangerous type of triple-negative breast cancer. To prevent breast cancer, the Cleveland Clinic of America has started the trial of the first phase of its vaccine. With the help of this trial, triple-negative breast cancer, the most dangerous type of cancer, can be controlled. 

The Cleveland Clinic is working closely with vaccine company Anixa Bioscience after receiving approval for a vaccine trial from the US Food and Drug Administration. Why this trial is special and what it means, let us discuss in detail- 

The new vaccine has the potential to prevent breast cancer, says Vincent Tuofi, immunologist and vaccine developer at Cleveland Clinic's Learner Research Institute. Of all the cases of breast cancer, 12 to 15 are triple-negative breast cancer patients. This is the most serious type of breast cancer. Its cases are seen more in African and American women. So it needs to be controlled. 

Before the trial, this vaccine was given to patients aged 18 to 24 years suffering from this cancer. Tumors were completely eradicated in these patients. Monitoring is being done to understand the risk of re-tumor in them. In the first phase of the trial, this vaccine will be given to the initial patients suffering from triple-negative breast cancer. To fight cancer, how much immune response is visible in their body, maybe justified with this trial. 

Patients involved in the first phase trial will be given three doses of the vaccine. The effect and side effects of the vaccine will be monitored for 2 weeks. This entire trial will be completed by September 2022. The pre-clinical trial of the vaccine was done on rats. During the trial, it was revealed that the vaccine activated the immune system and was successful in preventing breast cancer tumors. 

Research published in the journal Nature Medicines says that this vaccine is effective on other tumors. If the first human trial is successful, then this vaccine can make big changes in the medical world. 

 

Is COP 26 summit is really help for developong country......

As we know that the global economy and suddenly changing of environmental behavior is challenging to the developing countries. Conference of the Parties 26 (COP 26) means the 26th summit of Glasgow and thus, it is named COP 26. The summit is now going on with a special motto to control or minimize the carbon dioxide emission in the world. 

In ancient days, the environment supported us and we were enjoying seasonal behavior such as timely winter, summer and rainy season, etc. The main motto of this summit is zero emissions of carbon dioxide that directly affect rain that is highly essential for India because the majority of people live in villages and depend upon farming. But who is taking care?

We are all utilizing nature very cruel manner. For instance, the summit going in Glasgow faces the arrival of many jet aircraft that carry the participants from various countries and going to emit approximately 45,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide within the summit duration. 

But the question is that why we are just engaging us to make documents. Whether the discussion is being held in Glasgow is not business-oriented where many discussions may come for technology transfer etc. One way the Western countries are advising to control Carbon dioxide emission and in other hands, they want to establish many product manufacturing industries in developing countries. India is also among these countries. We are already suffering many problems regarding exceeding temperature day by day and it is being observed that gradually our environmental behavior stops supporting us. 

For instance, Kerala is known for its lush green environment and clean climate and always gets good rain that also in time but nowadays, it is seen that the climate also not supported when it is to be rain, that time drought observed. That directly affects the crop season that gives poor yielding and ultimately it affects the life of the citizens of the state. It also affects the Indian economy. 

Not only Kerala state, but also all parts of our country facing such irregular climatic variations that push our future toward the darkness. Now, whether the topic which is being discussed in Glasgow City would practically be implemented or the number of summits only increases like COP 26,27,28 and so on... 

How the heart attack happens, knowing symptoms on time can help in saving life…

Nowadays many people are losing their lives due to heart attacks even in their pre-mature life.  According to some doctors, there have also been deaths of people whose age was less than 40 or 45.   

Let us know how many types of heart attacks are there and what are their symptoms- 

1. Hypertension- Hypertension or high blood pressure is one of the most common types of heart disease. Under normal conditions, the blood exerts a specific pressure on the walls of blood vessels, which is called blood pressure. In many situations, this pressure can be so high that it starts damaging the body parts. This can be due to an increase in the amount of blood circulating in the arteries or a decrease in the diameter of the arteries. Symptoms- This condition does not cause any specific symptoms. Many people may suffer without even knowing it. However, some patients face multiple symptoms. They include headache, dizziness, shortness of breath and nose bleeds. 

2. Coronary heart disease (CHD)- Coronary heart disease is a condition that affects the arteries that supply blood to the heart. Due to many reasons, the lumen of blood vessels gets reduced, due to which the heart does not get oxygen and blood. One of the most common complications of this disease is myocardial infarction (MI), also known as a heart attack. This occurs when the artery becomes completely blocked and sufficient blood supplies the part of the heart. As a result, the cells do not have enough oxygen and they die within minutes. Symptoms- The main symptom of coronary heart disease is angina pectoris or chest pain. In most cases, it emerges after vigorous physical activity, occurs in the center of the chest, interferes with movement, and usually disappears after a few minutes of rest. Symptoms include chest pain, tiredness, difficulty in breathing, weakness all over the body, headache, dizziness.

3. Heart failure- Heart failure is one of the most serious types of heart disease. It is a diagnostic syndrome in which the heart cannot pump effectively leading to cardiac output or insufficient cardiac output. In other words, cardiac output is insufficient. Usually, when heart failure occurs, the ventricle muscles become very weak. So it doesn't shrink properly. Many changes in its structure or function can cause this. Actually, it is the last stage of some heart conditions. Symptoms include- difficulty in breathing, inability to breathe while lying down, pink sputum cough, swelling of the lower limbs, tiredness, ascites. include chest pain, tiredness, difficulty in breathing, weakness all over the body, headache, dizziness.

4. Congenital heart disease- One of the most common causes of heart problems in children is congenital heart disease. They are structural birth defects that occur early in pregnancy when the baby's heart is forming. Symptoms -  the symptoms of congenital heart disease usually appear in the early days after birth. Some of them are rapid breathing, purple lips, and difficulty in feeding, and growth problems. On the other hand, those who were born with congenital malformations and reach adulthood suffer from arrhythmia, shortness of breath, skin malaise, fatigue, and swelling in the lower limbs.  

5. Rheumatic heart disease- Various systemic diseases can affect the heart, for example, rheumatic fever.  It is a type of heart disease caused by a staphylococcus strain that attacks connective tissue, causing an autoimmune reaction. In this way it affects the muscles and valves of the heart, causing great damage in cases of rheumatic heart disease. These damages are so severe that they can cause severe heart failure and even death. The symptoms include- fever that does not exceed 101 °F, muscle and joint pain, general weakness, vomiting, gout.

6. Cardiomyopathies- Some heart diseases, such as congenital heart disease, require surgery. Cardiomyopathy is a heart disease that affects the heart muscle. They modify the size and distribution of the cells that make up it. In this way, the heart gets changed. The three most common types of cardiomyopathies are dilated, hypertrophic, and restrictive. In the first, the ventricles are enlarged. In the second the ventricular wall thickens. Finally, restrictive cardiomyopathy occurs when the walls of the heart (ventricles) harden due to infiltration of connective tissue. The Symptoms- are shortness of breath after physical activity, swelling of the lower limbs, tiredness, heart palpitation, dizziness, and fainting.

Broken💔 Heart Syndrome is now trending disease in modern society.... be must aware of that.....

As we know that many things of life are directly correlated with our heart❤. Our heart is not only associated to pump blood to the whole body but also managing many stress, emotions, and Love❤. But do you know? Why are the people always told about the heartbroken 💔💔 story?  

Now the question is whether really heart is breaking💔💔. Many of us say, NO. Because the heart has no time even a fraction of a second to think. It keeps on continuously working and pumping blood to our whole body. If stop even a second, people hardly survive, so when is the time? 

[Broken Heart Syndrome]

Yes. Scientifically, somewhat better to argue in this but really our heart is involved in many activities that control our mood and mind😏😏. It maintains stress, provides sentiment, feels sorrow and happiness, affection, and so on..... 

Some of the people told heart is breaking💔. The heartbreaking is now common to the young generation as they are very much under stress due to study, job, life settlement, choosing their life partners, etc. Apart from that the trending lifestyle and waking late at night, sitting mental work also play a key role to give intolerable stress to heart❤and ultimately, when the stress crosses limits, it starts to give trouble to heart in many ways and inauguration of many diseases happens. 

Have you ever heard -  

" Jab Dil Hi Toot Gaya, tab Ji kar kya karein "

OR 

"Dil ka khilauna haye toot gaya" 

OR 

Dil deta hai ro ro ke duhai, kisi se koi pyaar na kare", etc. 

But it's true, the heart ❤ will not break but due to abnormalities in sleep, food, stress, lifestyle, etc., it gives more pressure on the mind, and the level of bad cholesterol increases. This cholesterol starts forming crust or plaques in important arteries of the heart, the narrowing vessels, then damage and as a result, a heart attack will come. This is called Heart is broken💔💔. 

Scientifically, Broken heart syndrome, also called stress cardiomyopathy or takotsubo cardiomyopathy, is a real condition. Although its symptoms mimic a heart attack, it's caused by sudden physical or emotional stress. Treatments include heart medications, anti-anxiety drugs, stress management, and cardiac rehabilitation. Broken heart syndrome is a temporary heart condition that's often brought on by stressful situations and extreme emotions. The condition can also be triggered by a serious physical illness or surgery. It may also be called stress cardiomyopathy, takotsubo cardiomyopathy, or apical ballooning syndrome. 

Broken heart 💔 syndrome is a condition with symptoms that may feel like a heart attack, like chest pain, and shortness of breath, but it's caused by going through an emotionally stressful event, not by clogged arteries. It's triggered by very stressful situations, like the death of someone you love. Stress may lead to high blood pressure, which can pose a risk for heart attack and stroke. Stress also may contribute to such cardiovascular disease risks as smoking, overeating, and lack of physical activity. "Chronic stress has been shown to be associated with increased cardiovascular events," Schiffrin said. 

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy 💔or "Broken Heart Syndrome" is when the heart muscle becomes suddenly stunned or weakened. It mostly occurs following severe emotional or physical stress. The condition is temporary and most people recover within two months. 

Please🙏 don't allow your mind to become a hobby upon you and rule you whatever it wants. ❤Control your emotional movement, think with mind considering that every action has a reaction either it is good or bad. 

Stay healthy, stay safe...
