A skin burn is an injury to the skin or mucous membrane caused by heat or other physical factors such as radiations, cold or electricity. Four degrees of skin burns are distinguished in terms of their severity. First (I) degree burns: erythema and painful tumefactions; second (II) degree burns associated with blisters; third (III) degree burns: the formation of blisters is associated with cutaneous necrosis and nervous lesions; and fourth (IV) degree burns, which is the carbonization of a body part. The size of the burned area is also of great importance. Skin burns must be treated by a physician!
Skin diseases can affect any part of the body. A diet rich in fruits, vegetables and fluids, as well as a rational use of dietary supplements can favorably influence the treatment prescribed by the doctor. In addition to some pathogens, skin diseases can also be caused by an excessive fat and glucose intake, stress, air pollution, smoking, exposure to ultraviolet radiations, unbalanced diet or allergies. Furthermore, some hepatic or renal disorders may also result in skin diseases.
Symptoms include: itching, redness (erhythema), skin inflammation, exfoliation, thinning or, on the contrary, thickening of the skin.
Maintaining a proper body weight is the first step in maintaining your health. Obesity is the cause of a number of diseases, including cardiovascular disorders, cerebrovascular accidents (strokes), some types of cancer, diabetes mellitus, arthritis, biliary calculi, sleeping disorders and other conditions.
A simple formula can be used to calculate whether you have a normal body weight or you are overweight: the body weight (in kg) divided by the square of height (in m). If the result is within the range of 20 to 25, your body weight is normal; values above 25 indicate that you are overweight.
Smoking is a habit that leads to dependency and can severely alter health: permanent coughs, sour throat, teeth turned yellow, turning grey early, wrinkles, impotence and cancer.
Nicotine has a slight antidepressive action and increases mental tonus through an action similar to that of the acetylcholine.
Dietary supplements can facilitate giving up smoking.
The NICOSTOP capsules contain a vegetal blend, that is approved for reducing the ambition for smoking. Administer before meals one capsule three times per day, with plenty of liquids and the stress caused by giving up smoking will be seriously diminuated. The capsules contain Kava-Kava extract, lycopodium extract, camphor and menthol. You can keep on with this treatment for a month and can be repeated after a break of 30 days.
Sclerosis multiplex is an inflammatory and chronic autoimmune degenerative disease of the central nervous system characterized by localized and multifocal demyelinization with a progression toward the formation of sclerotic plaques. Depending on the localization of the lesions, symptoms include: visual disorders, progressive muscle atrophies, with centripetal evolution at the level of upper limbs, sensory and motor disorders, cerebellum syndromes, visual disorders caused by the lesion of optic nerve, incontinence and psychological disorders. It has a slow progression, usually marked by acute episodes and temporary remissions. Sometimes symptoms can disappear without ever returning.
The acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) is an untreatable disease and is the final stage of HIV infection. It occurs within 7 to 10 years after contamination. This disease is always fatal because it leads to opportunistic infections and cancer. Symptoms include: constant tiredness, chills, fever, muscle and joint pain, mycosis, eczema, swelling of lymphatic glands (lymphadenopathy), diarrhea and weight loss.
AIDS is transmitted by body fluids (such as blood, breast milk, sperm, vaginal secretion, etc.) and severely affects the immune system.
The BIOSPECTRUM OMEGA containing vitamin C and microelements can stimulate the immune system and enhance the body’s resistance. The recommended dose is 20 drops twice a day.
Stress is an unusually high demand made upon the body. The term “stress” was initially used in reference to states of mind characterized by psychological tension, or to psychological trauma. Later, professor Selye extended its sense and defined STRESS as any overstrain that triggers a series of hormonal and systemic (neuroendocrine) phenomena, which jointly constitute the General Adaptation Syndrome. Stress is constantly present in any circumstances. Moderate stress can be stimulating and result in an increase of vitality; this type of stress is called eustress. The General Adaptation Syndrome (GAS) is the sum of unspecific systemic reactions of the body to prolonged stress produced by a demand on the neuroendocrine system, and in particular, by the oversecretion of suprarenal hormones.
Injuries can be caused by cutting, pricking, scratching or scraping.
After a proper disinfection of and before dressing the wound, a thin layer of BALM WITH MARIGOLD (BALSAM CU GĂLBENELE) or BALM WITH CHAMOMILE EXTRACT (BALSAM CU EXTRACT DE MUŞEŢEL), with antiinflammatory and antiseptic effect, should be applied. The BALM WITH SEABUCKTHORN EXTRACT (BALSAM CU EXTRACT DE CĂTINĂ) has a wound healing effect. The BALM WITH MARIGOLD AND PROPOLIS (BALSAM CU GĂLBENELE ŞI PROPOLIS) also has a very positive effect.
