HOW ALCOHOL AFFECTS THE BRAIN

June 12, 2020


HOW ALCOHOL AFFECTS THE BRAIN


I once had the weird , though unhappy, opportunity of observing an equivalent phenomenon within the brain structure of a person , who, during a paroxysm of alcoholic excitement, decapitated himself under the wheel of a railway carriage, and whose brain was instantaneously evolved from the skull by the crash. The brain itself, entire, was before me within three minutes after the death. It exhaled the odor of spirit most distinctly, and its membranes and minute structures were vascular within the extreme. It looked as if it had been recently injected with vermilion. The substantia alba of the cerebrum, studded with red points, could scarcely be distinguished, when it had been incised, by its natural whiteness; and therefore the pia-mater, or internal vascular membrane covering the brain, resembled a fragile web of coagulated red blood, so tensely were its fine vessels engorged

I should add that this condition extended through both the larger and therefore the smaller brain, the cerebrum and cerebellum, but wasn't so marked within the medulla or commencing portion of the medulla spinalis 

The medulla spinalis and nerves
-------------------------- 

The action of alcohol continued beyond the primary stage, the function of the medulla spinalis is influenced. Through this a part of the systema nervosum we are accustomed, in health, to perform automatic acts of a mechanical kind, which proceed systematically even once we are thinking or speaking on other subjects. Thus a talented workman will continue his mechanical work perfectly, while his mind is bent another subject; and thus we all perform various acts during a purely automatic way, without calling within the aid of the upper centres, except something quite ordinary occurs to demand their service, upon which we expect before we perform. Under alcohol, because the spinal centres become influenced, these pure automatic acts cease to be correctly carried on. That the hand may reach any object, or the foot be correctly planted, the upper intellectual centre must be invoked to form the proceeding secure. There follows quickly upon this a deficient power of co-ordination of muscular movement. The nervous control of certain of the muscles is lost, and therefore the nervous stimulus is more or less enfeebled. The muscles of the lower lip within the human subject usually fail first of all, then the muscles of the lower limbs, and it's deserve remark that the extensor muscles subside before the flexors. The muscles themselves, by this point , also are failing in power; they respond more feebly than is natural to the nervous stimulus; they, too, are coming under the depressing influence of the paralyzing agent, their structure is temporarily deranged, and their contractile power reduced

This modification of the animal functions under alcohol, marks the second degree of its action. In young subjects, there's now, usually, vomiting with faintness, followed by gradual relief from the burden of the poison

Effect on the brain centres
---------------------------- 

The alcoholic spirit carried yet an extra degree, the cerebral or brain centres become influenced; they're reduced in power, and therefore the controlling influences of will and of judgment are lost. As these centres are unbalanced and thrown into chaos, the rational a part of the character of the person gives way before the emotional, passional or organic part. the rationale is now off duty, or is fooling with duty, and every one the mere natural instincts and sentiments are laid atrociously bare. The coward shows up more craven, the braggart more boastful, the cruel more merciless, the untruthful more false, the carnal more degraded. ' In vino veritas ' expresses, even, indeed, to physiological accuracy, truth condition. the rationale , the emotions, the instincts, are beat a state of carnival, and in chaotic feebleness

Finally, the action of the alcohol still extending, the superior brain centres are overpowered; the senses are beclouded, the voluntary muscular prostration is perfected, sensibility is lost, and therefore the body lies a mere log, dead by about one-fourth, on which alone its life hangs. the guts still remains faithful its duty, and while it just lives it feeds the breathing power. then the circulation and therefore the respiration, within the otherwise inert mass, keeps the mass within the bare domain of life until the poison begins to pass on and therefore the nervous centres to revive again. it's happy for the inebriate that, as a rule, the brain fails goodbye before the guts that he has neither the facility nor the sense to continue his process of destruction up to the act of death of his circulation. Therefore he lives to die another day

Irrfan Khan Dies

April 29, 2020


Actor Irrfan Khan has died at age 54, after an acclaimed film career 
 in India and on the international stage


Bollywood actor Irrfan Khan — a descendant of northern Indian royals, who acted in soap operas before starring in dozens of Hindi-language films and crossover hits like Slumdog Millionaire — has died in Mumbai at age 54. His spokesman, Ahmed Khan (no relation), confirmed the death to NPR.

The actor died Wednesday at a hospital in Mumbai, after being admitted for a colon infection. He had also undergone treatment for a rare type of neuroendocrine cancer.

"Irrfan was a strong soul, someone who fought till the very end and always inspired everyone who came close to him," the actor's team wrote in text messages to NPR and other news outlets. "He was strong in his fight, and we all have to be strong too in this loss."

Khan won four Filmfare awards — the Bollywood equivalent of Academy Awards. He played a police inspector in the 2008 British film Slumdog Millionaire, about a teenager from Mumbai's slums who competes on the Indian version of the Who Wants to Be a Millionaire TV game show.

Khan also starred in Hollywood productions, including Life of Pi, Jurassic World and The Amazing Spider-Man

Remdesivir is just what the doctor ordered

April 29, 2020




CNBC’s Jim Cramer on Wednesday grew more optimistic about America’s ability to safely resume business activity after hearing welcoming news about an antiviral’s potential to fight coronavirus from Gilead Sciences.

Preliminary results of a clinical trial studying the effects of remdesivir on Covid-19 returned positive data in helping patients recover from the contagion

“For the true skeptics, I know how hard it is to believe that such a seemingly insignificant clinical trial of some old off-the-shelf drug could have this kind of positive impact,” the “Mad Money” host said. “This drug makes a big difference, especially if you were worried about a second wave of infections after we reopened the economy

Stocks jumped on the news, carrying the Dow Jones Industrial Average 532 points, or 2.21%, higher, the S&P 500 2.66% higher and the Nasdaq Composite 3.57% higher
With some states authorizing nonessential businesses to gradually reopen and others preparing to reopen their economies in coming weeks, officials, investors and the general public have been concerned whether lifting quarantine orders will lead to a spike in new coronavirus infections. Most of the country has spent more than the past month under shelter-in-place orders intended to slow the spread of the deadly virus

Remdesivir, which has been found to be effective in treating SARS and MERS, two other diseases caused by coronaviruses, is seen as one probable solution to help severely ill Covid-19 patients recover from the virus more quickly

“Remdesivir is just what the doctor ordered,” Cramer said

Officials continue to call for increasing coronavirus testing capacities and for contact tracing as part of plans to safely resume business activity. Numerous drugmakers are also working on a Covid-19 vaccine, but a vaccination is not expected to be available for at least another year

The remdesivir trials drew praise from White House health advisor and respected immunologist Dr. Anthony Fauci who said it was “quite good news” and that the study showed a “clear-cut positive effect in diminishing time to recover

Fauci, the long-time director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases at the National Institutes of Health, has warned on Tuesday that the U.S. “could be in for a bad fall” if an effective treatment was not found to mitigate a possible future outbreak later this year

The U.S. government has taken drastic measures to slow the spread of the deadly virus to prevent medical centers from becoming overwhelmed with Covid-19 patients. More than 1 million people have tested positive of the disease and more than 60,000 have died of coronavirus complications in the U.S. alone, according to data from Johns Hopkins University.

“That’s why the market roared higher today, and make no mistake, this move was all about remdesivir,” Cramer said of Wednesday’s rally. “I can say that with confidence because we’re right in the middle of earnings season and Wall Street hasn’t exactly been thrilled with many of these reports

Healthy Food Choices

April 24, 2020


Healthy Food Choices


Eating healthy is something we all would like to do, 
although it can be hard.  In order to eat healthy, you
must first make the right food choices.  Eating healthy
is all about what you eat, which makes the choices very
crucial to your results

Grains
You should consume 6 ounces of grains per day.  To do this,
you can eat 3 ounces of whole grain cereals, breads, rice,
crackers, or pasta.  You can get an ounce of grains in 
a single slice of bread, or 1 cut of cereal

Vegetables
These should be varied, as you should eat 2 1/2 cups of
them each day.  You should start eating more of the dark
vegetables, such as broccili and spinach.  Carrots and
sweet potatoes are good as well.  You should also eat
more dry beans such as peas, pinto beans, and even kidney
beans

Fruits
Fruits are very important.  You should try to eat 2 cups
of them each day.  Focus on eating a variety, such as 
fresh, frozen, canned, or even dried fruit.  You can 
drink fruit juices as well, although you should use 
moderation when doing so

Milk
Milk is your calcium rich friend.  For adults, 3 cups
is the ideal goal.  For kids 2 - 8, 2 cups is where you
want to be.  When choosing milk products or yogurt, you
should go for fat-free or low-fat.  Those of you who
don't like milk or can't have it, should go for lactose
free products or other sources of calcium such as fortified
foods and beverages

Meat and beans
Eating 5 ounces a day is the ideal goal, as you should go
lean with your protein.  When eating meat, always bake it
grill it, or broil it, as this will prevent grease from 
adding to the equation.  You should vary your protein 
as well, with more fish, beans, peas, and nuts

When cooking your food, you should also limit solid fats
such as butter, margarine, shortening, and lard.  These 
foods may add flavor to your dishes, although they can 
also help raise your cholesterol as well.  Therefore, you
should try to add these foods and any foods that happen
to contain them

To help keep your saturated fat, trans fat, and sodium low
you can check the nutrition facts label.  This label can 
be found on the food package and will tell you all the 
information you need to know about the food item

By picking your foods wisely and watching what you eat
you'll help control your lifestyle.  Exercise is great as 
well, as it goes along perfect with a healthy eating 
lifestyle.  No matter what your age may be, eating healthy
will help you keep your active lifestyle for years and 
years - even help you and your health in the long run
as well

Eating Healthy During Pregnancy

Eating Healthy During Pregnancy


Starting off your with a healthy well
balanced diet is the best thing you do for yourself
and your baby.  This way, you'll only need to make
a few adjustments during your pregnancy.

Your first trimester

If you find it tough to maintain a balanced diet 
during your first trimester, you can rest assured
that your not alone.  Due to queasiness, some 
women will eat all of the time and gain a lot of 
weight in the process.  Other women have trouble
getting food down and subsequently lose weight  

Preventing malnutrition and dehydration are your
most important factors during first trimester  

Calories

When you are pregnant, you need to consume around
300 calories more than usual every day.  The best
way to go about doing this is listening to your 
body when you are hungry.  You should try to eat
as many foods as possible from the bottom of the
food pyramid
If you gain weight too slow, try eating small 
meals and slightly increase the fat in your diet
You should always eat when you are hungry, as you
are now eating for 2 instead of one

Calcium

By the second trimester, you'll need around 1,500
milligrams of calcium each day for your bones and
our baby', which is more than a quart of milk
Calcium is something that's missing from many 
diets.  Along with milk, other great sources for
calcium include dairy products, calcium fortified
juices, and even calcium tablets

Fiber

Fiber can help to prevent constipation, which is
a common pregnancy problem.  You can find fiber in 
whole grains, fruits, and even vegetables.  Fiber
supplements such as Metamucil and Citrucel are 
safe to take during pregnancy

Protein

Unless you happen to be a strict vegetarian, your
protein intake is not normally a problem for women
who eat a healthy diet

Iron 

A lot of women will start their pregnancy off with
a bit of iron deficiency.  Good sources of iron 
include dark leafy green vegetables and meats.  Iron
supplements should be avoided, as they can cause
internal symptoms such as cramping, constipation,
or diarrhea

Vitamins

Seeing as how you get a majority of the vitamins you
need in your diet, you may want to discuss prenatal
vitamins with your doctor.  Folate is one of the most
important, and if you are getting enough of it, you
may be able to avoid vitamins all together - just ask
your doctor to make sure
