Musuh usus yang tak disangka

Ramai ingat usus hanya “meragam” sebab makan pedas.

Sebenarnya, ada banyak tabiat harian yang nampak biasa tetapi boleh mengganggu kesihatan usus secara perlahan-lahan.

Antaranya makanan ultra-proses seperti sosej, nugget, mi segera, jajan dan makanan segera. Makanan begini biasanya tinggi garam, gula, lemak dan rendah serat.

Minuman manis juga antara musuh yang selalu dipandang ringan. Teh ais, air berkarbonat, boba, cordial dan minuman 3-in-1 boleh menyumbang kepada pengambilan gula berlebihan.

Usus juga perlukan serat. Bila kurang sayur, buah, kekacang dan bijirin penuh, sistem penghadaman boleh terganggu dan sembelit lebih mudah berlaku.

Satu lagi yang ramai tak sedar ialah penggunaan antibiotik tanpa sebab. Antibiotik tidak patut diambil sesuka hati kerana ia boleh mengganggu keseimbangan bakteria baik dalam usus.

Ubat tahan sakit tertentu p**a boleh memberi kesan kepada perut dan usus jika diambil terlalu kerap tanpa nasihat doktor.

Tidur lewat, stres berpanjangan, merokok dan v**e juga boleh memberi kesan kepada kesihatan badan secara keseluruhan, termasuk sistem penghadaman.

Jaga usus tidak semestinya perlu produk mahal.

Mulakan dengan makanan sebenar, cukupkan serat, kurangkan minuman manis, minum air kosong, tidur cukup dan jangan ambil ubat tanpa keperluan.

Jika ada darah dalam najis, berat badan turun tanpa sebab, sakit perut berpanjangan, muntah berterusan, cirit-birit lama atau perubahan corak buang air besar yang ketara, dapatkan pemeriksaan.

Usus yang sihat bukan sekadar tentang perut selesa. Ia sebahagian daripada kesihatan seluruh badan.

Understanding vertigo

Vertigo isn't just a "normal headache".

Vertigo is feeling like the world is spinning, the body is floating, or all around moving even when you are still. It can even disrupt balance, causing nausea, vomiting, sweating, and a fear of moving.

The most common cause usually comes from the balance system in the inner ear. Among them are BPPV, which is vertigo that occurs when the position of the head changes, for example when waking up, turning, bending, or turning on the bed.
Because there are people who feel

"When you open your eyes, the room seems to be spinning. ”

"When I wake up from bed, I feel like falling. ”

"When bowed down or dizzy, immediately feel nauseous. ”

Not all vertigo is dangerous. Some can be good on their own. Some need medication, balance exercises, or a specific technique to correct problems with small crystals in the deep ear. Treatment depends on the actual cause.

What to do when vertigo strikes?

Sit or lie down in a safe place. Avoid driving. Move your head slowly. Getting out of bed slowly . If recurring, getting stronger, or not recovering, get a doctor checked.

Vertigo is not “hanging around”.

For people who have been affected, the world does feel like turning even when the body is still.
