When last did you deworm yourself? You, yes you!!! 🤨

- How healthy are things you eat?

Ascariasis is the most common roundworm infection in people, occurring in about 807 million to 1.2 billion people worldwide, and ascariasis contributes to malnutrition in areas with poor sanitation. About 60,000 people die each year from ascariasis. Of those, about 2,000 people (mostly children) die because the worms block their intestine or bile ducts (tubes that connect the liver and gallbladder to the small intestine).

Infection begins when a person swallows fertilized Ascaris eggs. Only fertilized eggs can cause infection. People may swallow the eggs in food that came in contact with soil contaminated by human stool (f***s) containing the eggs.

Ascariasis is caused by ingesting those worm eggs. This can happen when hands or fingers that have contaminated dirt on them are put in the mouth or by eating vegetables or fruits that have not been carefully peeled, washed or cooked. People with ascariasis often show no symptoms.

Resembling spaghetti, but this is much worse!

Hundreds of live worms surgically extracted from the intestines 🌚

Ascariasis is infection caused by Ascaris lumbricoides, an intestinal roundworm, or occasionally by Ascaris suum.

- People acquire the infection by swallowing the roundworm eggs, usually in food.

- When first infected, people may have no symptoms or may develop fever, coughing, wheezing, abdominal cramps, nausea, and vomiting.

- Children with a heavy, chronic infection may not grow normally, or worms can block the intestine or bile duct, resulting in severe pain and vomiting.

Strategies for preventing ascariasis include:

- Washing hands thoroughly with soap and water before handling food.

- Washing, peeling, and/or cooking all raw vegetables and fruits before eating, particularly those that have been grown in areas where f***s is used as fertilizer.

- Not defecating outdoors except in latrines with proper sewage disposal.

- Effective sewage disposal systems can help prevent this infection from spreading.

WE ARE THE GENERATION THAT CAN END MALARIA 🦟

24/04/2023

Does your occupation require you to spend an extended amount of time in front of the computer…say over 4 hours a day? If so, you could be at an increased risk of developing certain health problems.

The health problems you could be at risk with are;

1. Musculoskeletal Problems
2. Vision Problems
3. Laptop use injuries
4.Repetitive stress injury
5 Headaches
6. Obesity
7. Stress disorders
8. Increased risk of blood clots
9 Sleeping disorders
10 Hearing Loss From Headphones

1. Musculoskeletal Problems
This affect areas of your body such as your back, neck, chest, arms, shoulders and feet. Having sore muscles and complaints of the muscles being tired are common. Sometimes numbness may occur in the arms and hands

These troubles occurs because the posture you assume when using the computer is most likely incorrect. It's likely that you are sitting in an uncomfortable chair, or that you have a workstation that is not ergonomically correct for your body.

Cautions:
âś… Find a correct height for both your desk and chair so that your computer screen is at eye level or slightly lower.
âś… Sit with your back straight, legs at 90 degree angles to the floor, and feet resting flat on the floor.
âś… ALWAYS take small breaks from your computer work to stretch your muscles, keep your blood flowing, and to rest your eyes.

2. Vision Problems
Computers are notorious for their bright lights, glare and flickering images that can cause strain on your eyes. Finding that you constantly focusing on the screen with delays in blinking can result in drying out your eyes.

Cautions :
âś… Ensure to adjust the brightness on your computer screen so that your eyes are not as strained.
âś…Tilt your screen to decrease any glare.
âś…Maintain a proper vision distance from the screen, and do not forget to blink.
âś… Get an anti blue ray glasses from an optician

Laptop Use Injuries
Laptops were designed for short periods of use for those who do not have access to desktop computer,but present day individuals choose to use laptops over desktops more frequently, due to convenience.
The problem is this: the screen and keyboard are very close together and there is really no right way to use a laptop because if you position the screen at the right height for your back and neck, it will cause you to have to lift your arms and shoulders too high to use it and vice versa…no matter what it will probably cause a problem for you somewhere.
Cautions :
âś… Use a desktop computer that is set up ergonomically-correct for you as frequently as possible; only use a laptop intermittently.
âś… Use separate laptop equipment, such as a wireless mouse or keyboard or a laptop stand.

4. Repetitive Stress Injuries
Using the computer may cause you to use your muscles in an odd way that may cause increased stiffness, pain, or swelling in any of those areas. One of the most common conditions related to repetitive use of your muscles when using the computer is carpal tunnel syndrome. You can read more about this on Google
Cautions:
âś… Place your mouse at a location next to the keyboard that will require you to move your whole arm to get to it rather that just twisting your wrist outward to reach it and move it.
âś… Type gentle to decrease the stress put on each of your fingers.
âś… Keep your wrists flexible when typing; avoid keeping them fixed in a certain position.
âś… Relax your arms, try to get a few stretches in when you are not typing or using your mouse.

5. Headaches
Headaches are common and may occur because of the increased muscle tension or from pain in the neck or vision problems, or continued strain on the eyes can also cause headaches.
Cautions :
âś… Attend regular eye exams in order to work toward correcting any vision problems.
âś… Try your best to keep your neck
straight in front of the computer and take breaks

Don’t pass without reading✅!

1. Garlic is good for the heart and the immune system.
2. Banana is good for s*xual health.
3. Diabetes can lead to recurrent yeast infection.
4. Yeast infection is not an STD.
5. Folic acid is essential for pregnant women. Very important.

Garlic contains a chemical known as “allicin”. Allicin promotes the production of white blood cells thereby improving the immune system. Also, garlic has antiviral, antibiotic, and antibacterial properties this all help the body in fighting against toxins.

Garlic is good for the heart as it helps lower blood pressure, prevent cell damage and regulate the body’s cholesterol.

Banana is good for the s*xual health, it helps increase libido in men. Also, bananas are potent sources of potassium and riboflavin, which increase the body's overall energy levels.

Banana contains magnesium. Magnesium helps keep testosterone in the bloodstream, boosting s*x drive and desire.

Banana also contains an essential amino acid known as tryptophan which is converted to serotonin in the body.

Serotonin is a mood hormone as such it helps with stress, promotes relaxation which allows you to get in the mood.

Banana has one problem and that is “sugar”. It is sugary so it is not an option for someone who is diabetic. A healthy adult, can have 3 fingers of banana a day.

Don’t eat a bunch of banana by yourself that’s bad.

Diabetes can predispose one to recurrent yeast infection. Whenever you experience recurrent yeast infection, stop spending money on drugs and go and check your blood sugar levels. If you don’t handle the diabetes which is the root cause, you will forever treat the infection.

Yeast infection is not a s*xually transmitted disease. It is not considered to be one.

Even a virgin can still come down with a yeast infection. Yeast infection can occur regardless of age or s*xual activity.

Yeast infection occurs when a fungus known as candida grows out of control.

Candida is kept under control by the lactobacilli which are the good flora (probiotics), anything that tilts the balance between the lactobacilli and candida can predispose one to a yeast infection.

The following can predispose one to yeast infection:

-Abuse of broad spectrum antibiotics
-Malnutrition
-Douching the va**na with antiseptic soaps, feminine wash, va**nal wash etc.
-Putting ice-cream in the va**na
-Using perfume on the va**na.
-Diabetes
-Impaired immune system

Signs you may have a yeast infection include:

-Redness and swelling of the v***a
-Vaginal rash
-Thick white odour free va**nal discharge
-Burning sensation during s*x or while urinating.

When you notice these signs, see your healthcare provider for diagnosis and appropriate medications.

Don’t use antibiotics for yeast infection, you will only make it worse. Yeast infections are treated with antifungal medications.

Always consult your healthcare provider for the meds you use.

Folic acid intake is essential for pregnant women as it helps prevent the risks of certain serious birth defects like spina bifida (defect to the spine of the baby) and anencephaly (a serious birth defect where the child is born without part of his/her skull and brain).
