Yoga Health secrets

Yoga

Happiness is in the mind, and the mind is supported by the body – a healthy mind lives in a healthy body. Your happiness depends on your mind and it depends on your body. Without physical health you can't be completely happy, and without mental happiness you can't be completely healthy. Health is a positive state; not just the absence of a negative one. It's not only the absence of disease. For too long now traditional Western medicine has treated illness as only a disease: an enemy that attacks you and needs to be counter-attacked; but in reality it's nothing more than an imbalance in the natural harmony of body and mind. True healing means restoring that balance, and true health means keeping it.


Yoga means "to unify." It's the holistic approach to all aspects of life: physical, mental and spiritual. Yoga views the person as a whole; as a unique combination of body, mind and soul, and its techniques maintain that body-mind-soul harmony.

Pregnancy and diabetes

There are two types of diabetes that need by women who are, or are planning to get pregnant, be considered:


1. Diabetes that pre-exists of a pregnancy.


and


2. Diabetes who develops during her pregnancy, which is usually referred to as "gestational diabetes".


Diabetics-those with pre-existing diabetes or those who develop gestational diabetes-often deliver larger babies.This is a result of the additional sugar produced by the mother, passed through the umbilical cord into the blood stream of the baby where insulin then converted to fat.

What you should know about diabetes

INTRODUCTION


According to the World Health Organization, a few decades back diabetes was an uncommon disease, in both developed and developing countries. Today, the story is different. It is currently estimated that over 143million people worldwide are affected by the disease. This figure is ever increasing, by 2020 over 220million people are expected to be living with diabetes, if the current trend continues.


In the United States alone, there are 18.2 million people (6.3% of the population) living with diabetes. While another 13million people have been diagnosed with diabetes. Unfortunately, 5.2milion (or nearly one third) are unaware that they have the disease.
