Also Watercress Turns Drug
Watercress has chemical properties as an anti-poison, bleeding laxative, diuretic (urine facilitator), anti-inflammatory and sedatives (tranquilizers / sleeping pills). So in addition to tasty pan-fried, these vegetables can also be used as medicine. Nosebleeds, too much menstruation, toothache and urine is not smooth is a disease that can be treated with kale.
how:
Take two bunches of kale and wash clean. Finely mashed or blended, strain, take the water and mix with a tablespoon of honey. Drink once a day once. This can treat and reduce menstrual bleeding too much.

For diuretic, how: a handful of watercress roots boiled with a glass of water and wait until boiling. After a cold, drink boiled water as well. Good luck.

Triglycerides also Trigger Stroke
Triglycerides also Trigger Stroke | Bad cholesterol is better known as a cause of heart disease. But not many people know that triglycerides, or blood fats, play a major role in the incidence of stroke.
Some experts even say that passage levels of triglycerides are very important to know a persons risk of stroke compared bad cholesterol (LDL).
In a study of 774 adult women, who suffered a stroke for over 8 years. They were compared with women who come from the same race and age but not of stroke.
In general, a quarter of women had high levels of triglycerides and 56 percent of stroke compared with a quarter of women are lower triglyceride levels.
Indeed it does not prove that triglycerides that cause stroke, but the connection came after the researchers accounted for other stroke risk factors like high blood pressure and diabetes. In addition to the American Heart Association (AHA) also states that value of triglycerides as a risk factor for stroke.
According to AHA, 150-199 milligrams perdesiliter triglyceride levels (mg/dL) as the upper threshold and triglyceride levels above 200 mg/dL as high.
Several other risk factors are intermediate density lipoprotein (IDL) and very low density liporterotein (VLDL), which shows the particle size of blood fats. Women who have large VLDL particles tend to be more at risk of stroke.
"Traditional measurements such as LDL assessed only just now no longer enough to know the risk of stroke," said Dr.Jeffrey S.Berger, from New York University Medical Center.
Yet he added that not everyone needs to know levels of VLDL or IDL, although there is also a doctor who starts to check them.

Sibling attacked by Stroke you also risk
Sibling attacked by Stroke| The debate on whether the stroke hereditary disease or not, is still growing. But the latest research by Swedish scientists found evidence that risk of stroke can be seen from absence of siblings who have a history of stroke.
Researchers reported that individuals who have a sibling male or female with a stroke, the risk of stroke could rise to 64 percent than those who do not have a family history of stroke.
In fact, increasing the risk of stroke may be higher if a person has a sibling with a stroke when she was still relatively young. For example, when your brother had a stroke before the age of 56 years, then their siblings (brother or sister) have an increased risk of stroke nearly doubled.
The findings refer to the most common type of stroke - called ischemic stroke - which occurs when blood flow to the brain is interrupted as a result of blockages in blood vessels.
"Patients in zone of risk of heart attack or stroke should be made aware that genetic factors contribute greatly," says study leader, Dr. Erik Ingelsson, a professor of cardiovascular epidemiology at the Karolinska Institute, Stockholm.
To find out how relationships between family history and risk of stroke, researchers included more than 30 700 men and women that his brother had suffered a stroke and 152 000 adults who have siblings with no history of stroke.
The result, those who have a brother or sister with a history of stroke (61-64 percent) were more likely to suffer a stroke than people without a family history of stroke.
While individuals who have a sibling with a stroke at age 55 years or younger nearly doubled risk of stroke. Gender differences also seem to not be too influential.
Researchers emphasize that they only saw limited incidence of stroke and did not see the other risk factors like high blood pressure or cholesterol levels. This means that researchers can not track the extent to which genetic factors influence the risk of stroke.
"But if your brother had a stroke, probably the best idea is to pay more attention to lifestyle habits such as diet and exercise, and blood pressure checked regularly," advises Ingelsson.
Dr. Gregg Fonarow, a professor of cardiology at the University of California, Los Angeles, said the study was very helpful in better understanding about the risk of stroke. "It gives us insight into the family of risk, involving both genetic, in the case of high blood pressure and risk of high cholesterol, and lifestyle history together," he said.
"Obviously, those who have relatives with stroke have a higher risk, and should strive to address all modifiable risk factors for stroke," added Fonarow.
Dr. Murray Mittleman, director of cardiovascular epidemiology research unit of the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, said, although one can not eliminate the factor of family history, but they can control the risk through lifestyle interventions.
"That means stop smoking if you are a smoker. Routine blood pressure checks, maintain an active lifestyle. And choose foods that nourish the heart to maintain a good balance of healthy fats, fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as a reasonable amount of fiber," Mittleman clear.
