HEALTH BENEFITS OF USING OLD VESSELS FOR COOKING

HEALTH BENEFITS OF USING OLD VESSELS FOR COOKING

Iron has long been recommended as the best metal for cooking. We gain the health benefits of absorbing iron by cooking in ironware, which is healthy for the body. You might try replacing some of the hazardous cookware in your kitchen with some pure metal pieces. This will unquestionably increase longevity and health. Old vessels, especially bronze utensils, provide health advantages in that they are not dangerous to the typical person. The human immune system is impacted by the leaching effects of some metal vessels, though. You will see several metal utensils being used in the kitchen if you look through an Indian family. Some of them, however, have extraordinary medical and healing qualities. As follows:


1. Kansa

Kansa is a pure bronze alloy made of 78 percent copper and 22 percent tin that is heated to 700 degrees Celsius and is typically used for drinking water and eating food daily to improve intestinal health.

Consuming food and liquids from copper-plated containers modulate the thyroid glands' need for vital copper trace elements.

For obtaining health benefits, it is advised to utilize it regularly. Pure Kansa contains copper, which lowers inflammation, and tin, which promotes digestion and absorption.

Copper's anti-inflammatory effects relieve joint and muscle pain and treat arthritis.

It effectively encourages holistic healing by enhancing gut health and immunity as well as stress relief and energy-boosting.

The water kept in a Kansa doesn't go bad. Additionally, it aids in reducing water-borne illnesses like jaundice, dysentery, and diarrhea.

Copper is known to offer anti-convulsant and brain-stimulating qualities that aid in brain stimulation.

Controlling blood pressure also promotes cardiovascular health


2. Copper

The liver, brain, heart, kidneys, and skeletal muscle all require copper to function properly. Additionally, it promotes iron absorption and supports the health of bones, blood vessels, neurons, and the immune system.

Drinking water from copper vessels promotes better digestion, weight loss, faster wound healing, slower aging, relief from arthritic and swollen joints, infection protection, and other health benefits.

Water stored in copper containers is free of germs, fungi, and algae, making it completely safe for consumption.

Copper is a crucial element in the synthesis of melanin, which contributes to the maintenance of healthy skin and slows the aging process.

Copper aids in the breakdown and elimination of fat, promoting weight loss.

While using copper utensils for drinking is highly suggested, using copper plates for cooking and dining is not seen as ideal. Copper reacts with salts, acidic, and citric compounds found in food, which is why.


3. Silver

Since it doesn't corrode, silver is regarded as a precious metal, yet maintaining it can be challenging because it tarnishes when exposed to air.

Using silver utensils to store food and beverages keeps them fresher longer than using non-silver cutlery. To preserve the flavor and freshness of milk in earlier times, a silver coin was placed within the container.

Assists in making the human immune system more resilient.

The cooling action of this aids in easy digestion and supports the body's metabolic process.

Its antibacterial properties are known to be good for skin and aid in the prevention of many diseases as well as the healing of wounds.

Using silver dishes and utensils helps prevent food contamination because of their anti-bacterial characteristics.

Silver is simple to keep because cleaning silverware just requires a little soap and water.


4. Stainless Steel

Iron, chromium, and nickel are the main components of stainless steel. Nickel is unlikely to benefit, even if iron and chromium are portrayed as good minerals.

Eating out of stainless steel has no unfavorable effects and does not enhance the number of minerals in food.

It doesn't react to sour or acidic foods, but for optimal health, the quality of the stainless steel must be superior.

All you need to know about Syphilis
All you need to know about Syphilis
ETIOLOGY: Syphilis is caused by T. pallidum.INCIDENCE: Each year, there are 29,000 new cases of syphilis. This figure represents probably only 10% of actual cases.CLINICAL FEATURES1. Primary syphilis: After an average incubation period of approximately 3 weeks, a smooth, painless ulcer called a chancre appears at the site of primary inoculation. The chancre heals without treatment in approximately 3 to 6 weeks; at about the same time, a painless uni- or bilateral regional adenopathy develops.2. Secondary syphilis represents disseminated disease and occurs in all patients with untreated primary infection. The lesions of secondary syphilis are papulosquamous lesions that occur over the entire trunk, extremities, penis, and buttocks. Fever and weight loss occur in 70% of patients.3. Tertiary syphilis occurs at least 10 years after the primary infection in at least 30% to 35% of untreated patients. The two most important manifestations of tertiary syphilis are cardiovascular syphilis, causing thoracic aneurysms, and neurosyphilis, causing meningitis, stroke, seizures, dementia, general weakness, and posterior column dysfunction.DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSES— Chancroid— HSV type 1 infection— Lymphogranuloma venereum— Tinea, sarcoid— Lichen planus— Seborrhea dermatitis— Molluscum contagiosum— Traumatic ulcer— Furuncle— CarcinomaEVALUATION: The clinical diagnosis can be confirmed by darkfield microscopic examination or more commonly serologic testing.THERAPY1. The standard treatment for primary, secondary, and early tertiary syphilis is benzathine penicillin G (2.4 million U administered intramuscularly as a single dose).2. For late tertiary syphilis or neurosyphilis, benzathine penicillin G (2.4 million U, three doses administered intramuscularly 1 week apart) is used. Doxycycline (100 mg orally twice daily for 14 days) can be given to patients who are allergic to penicillin.DISPOSITION1. Primary and secondary syphilis can be treated on an outpatient basis.2. Patients with neurosyphilis or major cardiovascular manifestations require admission for intravenous therapy.

What is Pemphigus Vulgaris?
What is Pemphigus Vulgaris?
Pemphigus Vulgaris is a rare disease that affects elderly patients. The mortality rate is 10%; most deaths result from steroid complications, secondary infection, dehydration, or thromboembolism. Pemphigus Vulgaris is caused by the attachment of immunoglobulin G autoantibodies to the epidermis. It has been associated with D -penicillamine and captopril administration.CLINICAL FEATURES1. Mucosal lesions and erosions are very common. Examination of all mucosal sites is warranted.2. Non-pruritic, painful, flaccid bullae appear that rupture easily. Blisters can be extended or new bullae formed by applying firm tangential pressure on the intact epidermis.3. Weakness, weight loss, and dysphagia may be presenting complaints.DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSES— Erythema multiforme— Bullous impetigo— Herpes zosterEVALUATION: Biopsy of lesions shows eosinophils, intraepidermal bullae, and acantholysis. Indirect immunofluorescent staining shows immunoglobulin G antibodies. Serum titers can be followed to evaluate the effectiveness of therapy.THERAPY1. Prednisone (200 to 350 mg/day) for 5 to 10 weeks is used until the cessation of new blister formation occurs. The dosage is then reduced to 40 mg on alternative days and tapered over 1 year.2. Azathioprine (100 mg/day) is added to the regimen and the dosage is reduced over a 4- to 6-month period. Methotrexate and cyclophosphamide can be used instead of azathioprine.3. Topical analgesics (e.g., viscous lidocaine) can be used to alleviate the pain associated with oral lesions.DISPOSITION: Patients with severe cases and oral lesions may require hospital admission for intravenous hydration. Others can be treated as outpatients with close follow-up.

Know about Scorpion Stings
Know about Scorpion Stings
Introduction: A nocturnal arachnid that lives in the Southwest of the United States is the scorpion. It has two venom glands and a stinger in its tail. The majority of species are rather benign, and they often only create a limited reaction similar to that brought on by a bee sting. The bark scorpion (Centruroides sculpturatus) venom, on the other hand, has neurotoxic that can result in a serious reaction. This dangerous scorpion is found on trees in Arizona and New Mexico.CLINICAL FEATURES1. Local effects: The C. sculpturatus scorpion bite causes immediate, excruciating pain at the stung site, as well as swelling and ultimately, numbness. The area that was hurt is extremely sensitive, and the implicated extremity could become paralyzed.2. Systemic effects: The neurotoxin is strongly cholinergic and can cause excessive salivation, blurred vision, muscular spasms, hypertension, and respiratory difficulties.DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSES — Snakebite— A puncture wound or other trauma— Insect or spider bite— Drug intoxicationEVALUATION: Typically, the offending scorpion is seen or assumed by history; if safety allows the scorpion to be brought in, this is best. Due to the wide range of symptoms and quick progression, a thorough history and physical examination are necessary.THERAPY1. Pre-hospital management includes rapid transportation of the patient, application of an ice pack to the sting site, and safe transport of the scorpion for identification. When serious symptoms appear, life-saving procedures should be started.2. ED managementa) Antivenin should be administered in all cases of severe envenomation.b) Ventilatory support may be required, with intubation and oxygen for patients with severe systemic response or anaphylaxis.c) Atropine may be required to counteract the cholinergic effects; the dose is titrated to relieve the cholinergic signs.d) Benzodiazepines may be used for seizures and muscle spasms.DISPOSITION: All victims should be observed for 24 hours, especially children. Symptomatic patients should be transferred to the intensive care unit if symptoms are severe.
