Body pH Balance And Effect On Bone Density By : Jerry Hall Leo Most people who suffer from unbalanced pH are acidic. This condition forces the body to borrow minerals -- including calcium, sodium, potassium and magnesium -- from vital organs and bones to buffer (neutralize) the acid and safely remove it from the body. Because of this strain, the body can suffer severe and prolonged damage due to high acidity -- a condition that may go undetected for years. A recent study conducted at the University of California-San Francisco on 9,704... Can Body Ph Balance Be An Early Detection For Cancer? By : Jerry Hall Leo Water (H2O) ionizes into hydrogen (H+) and hydroxyl (OH-) ions. When these ions are in equal proportions, the pH is a neutral 7. When there are more H+ ions than OH- ions then the water is said to be "acid". If OH- ions outnumber the H+ ions then the water is said to be "alkaline". The pH scale goes from 0 to 14 and is logarithmic, which means that each step is ten times the previous. In other words, a pH of 4.5 is 10 times more acid than 5.5, 100 times more acid than 6.5 and...

What are the Symptoms of Scabies By : Groshan Fabiola Scabies is an infection of the skin caused by microscopic mites called Sarcoptes scabiei. Scabies is very contagious and it can be acquired through direct contact with an infected person or with contaminated objects. The condition can occur in people of all ages, although children and elderly people seem to be mostly affected by scabies. Hygiene doesn’t influence the occurrence of scabies in any certain way. The condition seems to occur in people regardless of their personal hygiene. Facts about Scabies Treatments By : Groshan Fabiola Scabies is a skin infection caused by infestation with scabies mites. The mite responsible for causing scabies in humans is called Sarcoptes scabiei var. hominis. Although today there aren’t any effective ways of preventing scabies from occurring, the condition can be easily treated. In the past, people considered that scabies was developed only due to improper hygiene. However, hygiene has nothing to do with the condition; scabies can be developed by anyone, regardless of the level of hygiene. General Aspects about Scabies By : Groshan Fabiola Scabies is a very common condition and it can be developed by anyone. Scabies is an infection of the skin that causes bumps, nodules or blisters due to infestation with tiny mites. The common signs of scabies are inflammation, itching, rash and the presence of tiny burrows on the surface of the skin. How to Choose an Appropriate Scabies Natural Treatment By : Groshan Fabiola Scabies is an affection of the skin that occurs due to infestation with scabies mites (Sarcoptes scabiei). If left untreated, the condition worsens and can lead to complications: impetigo (skin infection with bacteria), cellulitis and crusted scabies (usually occurs due to re-infestation). Once discovered, scabies needs either medical treatment or scabies natural treatment. Both forms of treatment involve the usage of creams and lotions that eradicate the infestation with mites. Scabies natural treatments were successfully used in the past to cure the condition and these days they are still a good option for dealing with scabies. Scabies natural treatments can replace synthetic topical medications if the condition is discovered in time and the symptoms are not severe. Issues about Scabies Rash By : Groshan Fabiola Scabies rash can be identified only if it is accompanied by other symptoms of scabies. If you have a severe, persistent rash that doesn’t seem to ease up it might be caused by infestation with scabies mites. Scabies rash is characterized through itching and soreness and it tends to intensify at night. Scabies rash may also become very irritated after taking a hot shower or bath. If the skin appears to be blistery and scratched and the presence of small burrows is revealed on the surface of the skin, it is a possible sign of scabies rash and appropriate dermatological treatment is required. Understanding the Actual Causes of Scabies By : Groshan Fabiola The cause of scabies is infestation with microscopic mites that burrow into the skin and produce inflammation, rash and itch. Animal mites and parasites may produce temporary allergic reactions and inflammation in people, but are not able to infest them. The main cause of scabies in people is contamination with a particular type of mite, called Sarcoptes scabiei var. hominis. This microscopic mite lives only on the bodies of human hosts and can be acquired through direct contact with other people or by exposure to contaminated objects. This particular mite is very contagious and an infected person can spread it to hundreds of other persons.
