Serotonin

The Importance of Serotonin

In some cases it is difficult to differentiate the premenstrual syndrome with some types of depression, because both disorders are caused by the secretion of serotonin, which plays an important role in regulating mood and behavior.

Serotonin is found in three main Aeras body: the gut wall (where it causes increased motility) blood vessels (which causes constriction of the great vessels) and central nervous system. It is in this last area where most have studied its effects.

The functions of serotonin are numerous and apparently is involved in appetite control, sleep, memory and learning, temperature regulation, mood and behavior (including sexual behavior), cardiovascular function, the muscle contraction, endocrine regulation and depression.

The Hateful PMS

Posted by Sharon Keisha | March 8th, 2010 in Health, Woman's Health | No Comments »

premenstrual syndrome

What woman has not felt particularly badly sometime in the days before her menstruation? The so-called premenstrual syndrome is characterized by changes in mood and behavior in the time period preceding the period (several days to 2 weeks earlier), followed by a period of relief in the post to the rule expressed by instability emotional (irritability, depression), headaches, sore breasts and usually edema (swelling, resulting from fluid retention).
Approximately 80% of women of reproductive age experience physical and behavioral changes in this period, which are considered normal, provided that in all cases these produce disability or discomfort in them. In up to 10% of cases the symptoms are severe enough to harm women in their work, lifestyle or relationships.
There is no specific cause but has been associated with a hormonal imbalance, related to changes in blood levels of estrogen and progesterone (hormones involved in the ovulatory cycle), the effects of these on brain chemistry and other aspects with metabolism such as diet, and deficiency of certain minerals and vitamins.

Other associated factors are stress and lack of exercise. However, none of these bottlenecks are found in all women with this syndrome. Other investigations have focused on studying the effects of endorphins (opioid peptides), which are natural brain chemicals that have an effect on the body similar to morphine, affecting mood.
Lately it has investigated the effect of serotonin and tryptophan, which are neurotransmitters that has been created like symptoms of this syndrome experimentally. We have seen that the concentration of these components in the brain varies in response to hormonal changes of the ovary.

The Downsides of Modern Digestive Healthcare

Posted by admin | February 23rd, 2010 in Digestive Healthcare | No Comments »

This article written by Holly Hayden

There have been countless blessings which have come from modern medicine. It has done miracles for people in this age and as a result, the average life expectancy has increased quite a bit.

However, there are some downsides that have occurred due to this rapid advancement. Every innovation has its disadvantages and as technology progresses, we will also notice strange new health problems arising.

For example, previously after the industrial revolution, processed foods have become increasingly popular due to its marketability and convenience for production on a mass scale level. The human body responds to this change in diet accordingly. The reaction can include anything from constipation to colon disease on an extreme level. As an even earlier illustration, there have even been studies where there was a sharp increase in appendicitis among early 19th century African slaves after adapting to a processed diet that’s popular among industrialized countries.

If the human body suffers digestive problems from these dietary changes, modern medicine comes into play by curing the symptoms but rarely eliminates the cause of a deeper biological incongruence.

For example, with the advent of modern surgical and anesthetic techniques, it seems like many people in 1st world nations forget about older forms of treatment. People rarely consciously practice the highest form of health care which is prevention, when it comes to digestive health. Even worse, pills and surgery became such a commonly recommended treatment by health authorities that people neglect that long term consequences follow if you simply forget the existence of a deeper issue and resort to quick fixes. As one example, surgery for hemorrhoids does not always heal properly because the tissue is not meant to be altered in such an unnatural manner.

Another fix that is popular is chemical-based medication. Because of the powerful effects that chemistry can have on the human body, it seems to be a more powerful effect at first glance. However, this hides a very dark reality that manifests in the form of random side-effects in the beginning. In the more extreme cases, it can damage one’s immune system or cause other disorders to occur.

A prime example is mental or anxiety medication that aims merely to change certain natural chemicals in the brain or nervous system. It intends to call these imbalances but never addresses the issue of root problems in a person’s life.

Another example is if one is suffering from hemorrhoids, hemorrhoid creams are placed upon the tissue to relax the blood vessels. This does have the temporal effects but does not resolve anything in the long-run. Once the creams effect wears off (assuming it ever did), the hemorrhoid will merely come back.

From this perspective, the ideal way to prevent digestive problems is by reverting to a natural lifestyle more attuned to that of a hunter/gatherer diet. This is definitely impractical, but one can still seek out natural remedies in the process and come as close as possible to this ideal.

As societal economics and media in the 1st world causes more people to be attracted towards an instant gratification fix, while downplaying the traditional methods of prevention, that same desire for instant gratification can be seen reflected increasingly in healthcare. The key is to recognize this and not place your health at risk despite what is considered “conventional” practice.
