However, it is giving the event of onion production of only two provinces in the country is about to be lost mostly because apparently enough. Absurd paradox!

This unpleasant reality the only thing that tells us how alert is that although each of our homes and use it consumes daily, the 10 million Dominicans we are consuming too few onions. Why? It is not enough that an entire family from having only a medium or large onion a day to get to enjoy their benefactors effects on the body.

Charles Kozel, an eminent German naturalist who reached the age of 99, said of the onion that “contains all those elements that the body needs for conservation and development, while necessary elements for the constant cleansing of the blood and the expulsion of foreign substances and morbid accumulated in the body. These words indicate that the onion is needed to work better, longer enjoy the love of a spouse, to sleep more pleasantly, to learn all that he studies, to prevent acute and chronic diseases, etc..

In fact, and other minerals such as: sulfur, potassium and germanium. Sulfur is very useful to deal with arteriosclerosis and cholesterol buildup in the heart. Potassium helps prevent high blood pressure. And germanium helps surviving AIDS patients. And these three minerals together mutually beneficial effects on health. The onion gives more life and health alcohol drinkers and those who work hard, as more resistant to short sleepers. Onions are good for preventing infectious diseases, diabetes, cancer and the accumulation of uric acid in the joints, hair loss (due to its silicate content (both eating it and rubbing it on the scalp).

According to the master Kozel, the onion is healing “in asthma, colds, coughs, hoarseness, mucus, suppuration, ulcers, inflammations of all kinds, skin infections, diseases of the throat , brain, bones, stomach, intestine and kidney. Thus, grasp it with pleasure and enjoy better health!

True, not acquired in any pharmacy and of course prescription is unattainable, but the daily dose of exercise is valid for any age, being able to take anywhere and helps us live longer and better. No doubt this is a miracle drug, fantastic and free.

Most times we get lost looking for a solution in the labyrinthine world of potions or pills waiting an extra intake of energy, health and even rejuvenation, yet the solution may lie in our hands, and that scientifically, there is evidence that the moderate physical activity done regularly is key to improving the quality of life, prevent the development and progression of many chronic diseases and delay the effects of aging.

Notwithstanding any physical activity should be governed to some principles to take into account, such as individualization, as each person has different characteristics, adaptation, because it is necessary to apply a series of incentives to our body in succession, producing adapted in various devices and systems thereof; adequacy of the stimulus, as this should be adequate for the level of physical condition of each subject, progression, given that the effort should be increased gradually; Continuity, since need to be carried out regularly; adequacy, age, very important to keep in mind, as how to adapt to different training stimuli depends on the person’s biological age, which does not correspond to the chronological … .

That said, we very conscious that any person can make a program of physical activity without limits of age and sex, but can advise that, in light and moderate activities, we must submit to a basic examination by our doctor.

A group of Japanese scientists has found the answer to the puzzle, according to a study by researchers at Japanese universities in Tokyo and Saga, published by the online edition of the journal Human Reproduction.

The tests in mice indicate that paternal sperm is responsible for the shorter longevity of mammalian male versus females.

In their experiment, scientists have discovered that mice created using genetic material from two mothers and without the involvement of a parent living up to one third longer than normal mice with a mixture of maternal and paternal genes.

To explore this issue, researchers began to study the lifespan of mice produced no sperm. To this end, immature oocytes collected from mice one day old, manipulated the genetic material of these genes to behave like sperm and transplanted genes from this genetic material in unfertilized mature oocytes from adult mice that had eliminated the core.

These reconstructed oocytes became embryos which were transferred to a female mouse. The resulting pups had genetic material from two mothers but no father.

Furthermore, the authors created mice control through a natural pairing that were genetically identical mice from two mothers, irrespective of the fact that they were created in the normal way with genes of male and female mice. Both groups of mice were kept in the same environments without infections and with free access to food.

The study results were inconclusive. The mice created from two genomes women lived an average of 186 days longer than control mice created from the combination of a normal female and one male genome, whose life expectancy is between 600 and 700 days. These modified mice seemed to have a better immune system, with a significant increase in a type of white blood cell, eosinophils.

The study authors believe the reason for the difference in longevity may be related to a gene on chromosome 9, named Rasgrf1. “This gene is usually expressed from the chromosome inherited from the father and is a gene on chromosome 9 associated with postnatal growth,” said Tomohiro Kono of Tokyo University and co-author.

“Does not just genetics”

“This is very important genetic component in longevity of people,” agrees Mary Flora de Pablo, Professor, Biological Research Center of CSIC. The researchers say the study is “interesting model” which completes the analysis of the lifespan of mice on a type called “bimaternos” and on data that had already been published since 2004.

But longevity also “depends on environmental factors, modifiable,” explains De Paul. For example, “low-calorie diet, (without going to malnutrition) increases longevity and delays the onset of diseases associated with aging,” qualifies the teacher.

The end result of increased life expectancy in women than men in the developed world “is also a significant component derived from lower-risk behaviors in women than in men,” says the researcher, including appointment to a lower consumption of alcohol and drugs.

Most people who have acid reflux, you should consider that the foods chosen to consume during night time and will have consequences during sleep or the next morning when generators are incorrect or acidity.

As well as the time of last intake is very important since it is advisable to eat 2 to 3 hours before going to bed, never eat and lie down immediately, as it is source of many digestive problems, resulting in the occurrence of nightmares, insomnia, heartburn, morning headache, drowsiness, and so on.

Diet occupies the most important to this sort of condition, and the base of it is established by adjusting the foods that may cause heartburn or acid foods.

Acidic foods, will make it easier to get acid reflux, thus reducing their consumption is the most simple and adequate to address the problem, within which sweetened beverages and milk play a very prominent role as producers of acidity such as, milk, orange juice, caffeinated beverages (soft drinks), alcoholic (are producing sugar, etc.).

The acid-producing foods are: hot peppers, pastries, sweets, desserts, canned goods, chocolate, citrus fruits, tomatoes, elaborate meals (sauces, etc.).

Another simple and effective advice, is to regulate the nocturnal intake in relation to quantity, little is ideal to eat, to sleep well and wake up better.
