Why is it necessary to eat vegetables?
There are three processes that occur in the body, namely combustion (power), construction (growth) and settings. To get the energy, the body requires carbohydrate, fat and protein. Meanwhile, to grow and develop necessary protein and water. And to arrange for all these processes occur must have vitamins and minerals derived from vegetables and fruits. "That is why the vegetables are very important for the body, because there are certain substances that can only be obtained through the vegetables. The meat also contained vitamins and minerals, but the number was only a little," says Leane.

Eat plenty of vegetables and fruits is also an ideal way to lose weight naturally. Besides low calories and low in fat, fiber in vegetables can satiate the stomach. Vegetables also make work a better intestinal peristalsis, thereby facilitating defecation.

Serve with a draw
How interesting presentation and processing can help you get rid of a sense of reluctance to eat vegetables. No need to consume a raw vegetable or put a whole pile of vegetables in your dinner plate. Try to make it more delicious cooked into soups, pizza, pie or lasagna. With cut into smaller sizes or mixed with other foodstuffs, vegetables will be more nice views. Moreover, when eating soup, you will not feel the flavor and aroma of each vegetable. Or as in pastel or lasagna, you do not have to look straight vegetable because the dough is wrapped closed.

Allow plus fruit
A lot of nutrition in the vegetables was also found in fruit. So you could replace the nutritional deficiencies of these vegetables with fruits. But that does not mean avoiding vegetables altogether. There are nutrients and compounds in vegetables that can not be easily obtained elsewhere. "The fruit contains more vitamins, but less fiber and minerals," says Leane. But you could combine fruits with vegetables. Drink a glass of juice in the morning and another one in the afternoon or evening can be a sizable business. But because the number of fibers lost in the processing of juice, so not a good idea if only rely on juice alone. And do not forget, pay attention to the variations in type and color of the fruit that you eat. Each type and color has its own advantages.

"Most children who do not like to eat vegetables is the mother worked or not painstaking 'serve' his son," says Leane.

First, the occurrence of disturbances in the retina or diabetic retinal. "It could blocks blood vessels because of diabetes, and it should soon be overcome by con-ser," said the expert's retina.

Then, a second disturbance of the risk factors for diabetes is cataracts. Because, diabetes accelerate the process that eventually crystallize people lenses faster cataract diagnosed before age should be. The disease arises due to disruption of cell metabolism in the lens, so the lens becomes cloudy and vision becomes disrupted because light can not enter into the eye. Actions to be undertaken to overcome the cataract is by surgery, "said Dr. Waldensius Girsang.

"Then the last is a condition in which the disease glaucoma eyeball pressure on high. Indeed, all the diseases caused by diabetes on the eyes leading to blindness if not treated properly," said Dr. A.M Ginting. Glaukomajuga should be done with surgery. Glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness in the world and in Indonesia after the cataract. In Indonesia, the disease affects about 500,000 people own.

But Glaucoma is the final stage of diabetic eye disease. Diabetics who came to the JEC will be checked whether there was interference on the retina, last checked whether there is glaucoma. Handling can only be done but can not return to normal, "katanya.Dalam next scsi, JEC also presented Dr Djoko Maryono Sp.PD, Sp. PJ, PHASE as Expert Internist Jakarta Eye Center (JEC). He explained that so many people with diabetes who experience vision problems, then the JEC also opened his own Internist services so that patients can be inspected by the integrative. "Most people with diabetes to know that he was suffering from the disease after experiencing vision problems, heart, kidneys, as well as erectile dysfunction," said Dr. Djoko Maryono.

"Approximately 60 percent of people know if he has diabetes after checking his eyes. And the other 30 percent because of erectile dysfunction," said Dr. Djoko Maryono, adding that this happens because the nervous eyes and genitals had a blockage caused by sugar and fat content that is not burned earlier.

Meanwhile, according Girsang, those who have sensed a disturbance in the eye should immediately went to the doctor's eyes. Because if it was examined and it is known that the retina is disrupted, it can be done immediately suctioning action through the blockage in the retina. Fear, if the longer tolerated, blood vessels are clogged blood pcmbuluh in the retina would crack and eventually patients lose pcnglihatannya. In addition, acute diabetes is also very risky to the crystallization process of lens that is faster than people in general, so that over time a cataract, which, if the crust will be operating, "he said, describing.

Those who are at risk for diabetes are age forty years and over, heredity, obesity is characterized by a waist circumference of more than 90 cm for men and 70 cm for women. And the mother who gave birth to a child with a weight of more than four kilogram.Yuni Hartadi, gymnastics instructor who is also treasurer Persadia Pelni Petamburan Hospital confirmed that the sufferer of Diabetes in turns out to be disciplined. lani life.

1. Adequate lighting, not too big and too low. Lighting that is too strong to reduce the contrast on the screen and obscure the view. Should not place a light source that can lead to reflections on the television. We recommend that you print color television around neutral.
2. Better lighting in the living room television is not completely dark. Resulted in total dark room contrast of the television becomes excessive and disturbing the comfort of the eye. Not adjust the color in the room with television, but television which adjusts the condition of the room.

your eyes health is your life

The eye is the human senses are very important / essential. Can be imagined if we had eye damage or blindness, we can not enjoy and feel how beautiful this universe.

In fact we often forget to make eye care, but like other parts of the body, the eyes may be affected by disorders or health problems. Disorder-disorder can be caused by air is not clean or polluted, radiation, sunlight, radiation from too long in front of computers, and other disturbances.

Studies conducted by the Eye Disease prevalence Research Group (2004) estimates that in 2020 the number of patients with eye disease and blindness in the world will reach 55 million inhabitants. This study also mentions that the eye disease and blindness will increase, especially for those that have been aged over 65 years. A person aged 80 years and over who represents 8% of the total population, suffered blindness as much as 69%.

Impaired general health of the eye that occurs is the reduction of visual function, red-eye symptoms without any decrease in vision function, and a red eye with decreased visual function. Until now, eye disease that is suffered is cataract, glaucoma, and infection.

Along with increased attention and knowledge of the effect of nutrition on health, especially the health of the eye causing rapid market growth of health products, food drug, health food, medical drugs, food supplements, health supplements, herbal medicine, natural medicine eye. Most of these products to health-shaped eyes that are now marketed supplements, medicinal foods, health foods, medical drugs, food supplements, health supplements, herbal medicine, natural medicine. In addition to antioxidant compounds (vitamins A, C, and E) which had previously been known to improve eye health, other compounds such as lutein, zeaxanthin, and astaxanthin, recently known as a compound that can improve eye health.

Lutein, a yellow carotenoid family of compounds found in many green vegetables. Lutein in the macula and are believed to protect the eyes from oxidative damage by ultraviolet radiation (UV).

Macula was in the middle of the retina and directly adjacent to the lens of the eye. Macula is a small area containing millions of cells that help produce sharp eyesight to read or see objects clearly.

Other carotenoid compounds present in the macula is is zeaxanthin, which are known to provide benefits for eye health.

Research conducted by Chitchumroonchokchai and colleagues in 2004 from Ohio State University, indicated that lutein and zeaxanthin may protect the human lens cells from exposure to UV light, which is a major cause of cataract disease. In addition, they compared the antioxidant activity of lutein and zeaxanthin as vitamin E. The results showed that lutein and zeaxanthin showed 10 times higher activity compared with vitamin E in protecting cells from damage caused by the lens to ultraviolet light.

In the same year was also carried out a study by Neuringer and colleagues, shows the ability of lutein and zeaxanthin in eye health. While testing in animals, sponsored by DSM Nutritional Products of Switzerland, showed that the supplementation or the addition of lutein and zeaxanthin increase the activity of antioxidants in the blood.

Another group of carotenoid compounds which appeared to have the ability to protect the macula from UV exposure is astaxanthin. Guerin et al. (2003) mentions that the ability of antioxidant compounds and anti-inflammatory effects of astaxanthin can provide eye protection from UV rays.

Until now, the antioxidant activity of the compounds lutein, zeaxanthin, and astaxanthin provide answers to the mechanism of the increase in eye health. Free radicals from UV light or air pollution, into the eye resulted in oxidation of susceptible molecules in the lens of the eye.

care your eyes

Parents are always told to eat the carrots to a healthy eye, there is also a carrot to eat a lot every day in order to avoid a negative. Some believe that eating or drinking carrot juice can normalize minus eye. Is it true that all belief? Then how do we maintain eye health? The following simple tips.

Overall eye function was as senses of sight that receive light stimuli on the retina, through optic nerve fibers, delivers stimulation to the center of vision in the brain for interpretation.

It's no secret indeed of vitamin A is an important factor for the state of our eyes. As our parents always encouraged to consume a lot of carrots which is famous for its vitamin A content. Because vitamin A deficiency can cause a range of eye disorders, one night blindness. "Vitamin A provides energy and ensure better cell regeneration," explains dr. Ria Sylvia Sp.M, ophthalmologist from the Eye Hospital eHealth Team Undaan moment met on the sidelines of preoccupations.

However, dr. Ria - friendly greetings dr. Ria Sylivia - explain that vitamin A is not the answer for patients with nearsightedness (minus) or farsighted (plus) to be cured, like a lot of myths that are spread in the community. Vitamin A deficiency causes abnormalities are also not being able to see it, ie, nearsightedness and farsightedness. 'Once there was never a big event that many people experience nearsightedness because less consumption of vitamin A, and then after they consume foods containing vitamin A in their eyes gradually recover,' said the doctor was a graduate of the University of Airlangga. "Therefore stigmanya, if the vision began to clear, then direct people identical to the carrot," he added with a smile.

For farsightedness abnormality or any distance, the eye due to anatomical abnormalities, or genetic. He then explained that the current games for the kids in circulation is a game that has many small details that demand more eye accommodation, such as for example a computer that has a lot of detail paper, white board markers sometimes have made too thin.

Airlangga University School of Medicine alumnus is continued that if the distinguished children's games that the majority of ancient wooden outdoor and have a size too big so not requiring excessive eye accommodation. Because if excessive eye accommodation, rapid muscle fatigue and eventually complained dizziness.

He is appealing, especially for parents who have children still of school age children, to be more aware and alert to the unusual habits of children. As an example:

1. Watching TV too close
2. The position of the child when she saw, first of all look up and then tilt the head too much to the left or right, or too looked down and also look up
3. Declining achievement

It is possible that some traits are the traits of your child's eyes is not normal, the doctor was called home to parents to check their children's eye conditions to the eye doctor. "When children do not complain about things too can be compared to adults, so parents should be more aware," said dr. Ria.

While the function of the eye itself down by itself at the age of 40 years and over due process of degeneration. "So in fact you use glasses only if the activities require us to see the detail, the goggles need, just adjusted to the circumstances," said this mother of three children. He cited that the elderly have generally now devouring the newspaper every morning and demanding more accommodation so that the eyes require glasses to help see more clearly.

When asked how to maintain eye health, he then explained that the eyes are healthy physically healthy is not necessarily a function. "People's eyes were minus physically fine, but its function is less," he explained. So if to keep the eyes healthy physically, then:

1. Keep your eye hygiene, such as for example cleaning up after the eye that often arise in the morning. This is a dirt eyes the tears dried up.
2. For those of you who use the contact lens, keep it clean to avoid irritation
3. Avoid trauma to the eye, such as for example to avoid places that are too dusty or use eye protection when going somewhere dusty.
4. Keep your nutrition or food intake so as to ensure good cell regeneration.
5. Do not forget to conduct routine screening, for children over six months, while for the old age state of the eyes examined at least one year-two years.

diabetic retinopathy

Diabetic retinopathy is a common eye disease in diabetics. Those who suffer from diabetes are also at high risk for other eye diseases such as glaucoma and cataracts. All of these eye diseases can cause severe vision loss to blindness.

Diabetic retinopathy disease process caused by the changes that occur in blood vessels of the retina, which is a thin membrane is formed by nerve cells that line the rear two thirds eyeball. Nerve cells in the retina receives light and sends signals to the brain about what is seen by the eye.

Diabetic retinopathy consists of two stages, namely:
Nonproliferatif retinopathy. An early stage of this disease process. During diabetes, this condition causes the small blood vessel walls in the eye weakens. Arising from a small bulge on the blood vessels (mikroaneurisma) that can be broken so that the leaking fluid and protein into the retina. Reduced blood flow to the retina causes the formation of patches of the form "cotton woolen" gray or white. Fat deposition in white yellow protein (hard exudates) was also formed on the retina. This change may not affect vision unless fluid and protein from the damaged blood vessels causing swelling in the central retina (macula). This condition is called macular edema, which can aggravate a person of vision centers.
Proliferative retinopathy. Nonproliferatif retinopathy can progress to proliferative retinopathy is more severe stage of diabetic retinopathy disease. The main forms of proliferative retinopathy is the growth (proliferation) of fragile blood vessels on the surface of the retina. These abnormal blood vessels easily rupture, bleeding occurs in the middle of the eyeball so that impede vision. Will also form scar tissue that can pull the retina so that the retina regardless of the place. If untreated, proliferative retinopathy can permanently damage the retina and a portion of another portion of the eye, causing severe vision loss or blindness.
Diabetic Retinopathy usually develops into a number of levels in most patients with type 1 diabetes and some types of diabetes 2. Strict Supervisor of blood sugar levels can prevent the risk of developing severe retinopathy and vision loss. In case of retinopathy, the early detection and appropriate treatment (most often with lasers) can help prevent, obstruct or change the loss of sight.

Those who suffer from diabetes, his eyes should be checked at an eye doctor (oftalmologis) every year, even if they have no complaints even though the eye diseases. Dibetes Association of America suggests checking once a year (starting in three to five years after being diagnosed with diabetes type 1 and soon after being diagnosed with diabetes tipe2) with the following reasons:
Someone who developed diabetic retinopathy unknowingly because the disease does not always cause symptoms until the damage to the retina it worse.
Treatment will be more effective if done before the symptoms and complications developed retinopathy.
With regular eye examination, an eye doctor can find out and cure before continuing signs of retinopathy.
Unfortunately, many diabetics who did not check his eyes once a year to find out whether it has experienced retinopathy (or other eye diseases caused by diabetes). Consequently, they did not know that they have suffered from retinopathy until significant vision loss. Diabetic retinopathy is the leading cause of new blindness in people between the ages of 20 to 74 years. The experts believe many cases of vision loss and blindness may be preventable by taking annual eye examinations in diabetics
