Nowadays one of the main “bogeymen” is high cholesterol. Public opinion holds that it causes atherosclerosis and forms especially because of eating fatty foods. It has now been proven that this is not the case! Cholesterol is a vital substance in your body. It becomes a problem when so‑called oxidative stress damages it, because in that oxidized form it harms the blood vessel walls. So the issue is not with healthy cholesterol itself, but with cholesterol that has been damaged by something. This damaging process is oxidative stress, which is driven by excessive carbohydrate consumption (sugary drinks, baked goods, frequent snacking, sweets without restraint). The consequence is fluctuating insulin levels, the development of insulin resistance and increased free radical production in mitochondria. This initiates cholesterol damage and the process of atherosclerosis.
High blood pressure (medically called hypertension) is today the most common disease among Hungarians! When I graduated from university in 1991, official data showed about 1.6 million people in our country were affected. Today nearly three times as many — 4.2 million people with blood pressure problems — are registered. In my opinion there are two main reasons for this: lifestyle on one hand, and seriously flawed medical treatment protocols on the other. But let’s not rush ahead; we’ll go step by step. By the end of this article you’ll understand.
Primarily important for movement and lymph therapists, as well as neurorehabilitation specialists, are the 3S sequential stimulation programs offered by Globus electrotherapy devices. This article covers these programs, their significance, and how to use them. About muscle stimulators in general: Muscle stimulators provide treatment for muscles. Devices intended for home use typically operate on 2 or 4 channels. Their characteristic is that they deliver the pulse on all channels at the same time and therefore the muscle contractions occur simultaneously [...].
Chronic inflammation is closely linked to nutrition, metabolism and the processes of energy production. If you understand why mitochondrial health is so important, then by paying attention to the composition of your food and the timing of your meals, you can prevent a large portion of chronic diseases and counter excess weight without extreme effort or self-denial.
Those who visit beauticians are probably familiar with various electrical treatments to improve facial skin elasticity and reduce wrinkles and crow's feet. You shouldn't expect much from a single such session, and few people can visit a beautician every day. I have good news! These beauty programs are already available in Globus manufacturer's devices. That way, a few-minute daily treatments performed at the comfort of your home can really deliver visible results. [...]
Sweat-free body shaping is a long-held wish. Muscle stimulation, one form of electrotherapy, can indeed help make the process easier and faster. In this article (not exhaustively) I present which body-shaping programs* are available in the Globus manufacturer’s electrostimulator devices. I also explain what you need to do to make sure it really helps. Body shaping and the electrostimulator
Feminine curves, firm skin, the smallest possible clothing size – in many people's imagination this is the ideal female figure, which women usually try to achieve, getting closer to that goal by trying new methods. Many newly launched products promise to help on this path, but unfortunately most “miracle remedies” fail to live up to expectations. In contrast, there are numerous technologies that can produce truly visible results in the field of beauty care (as well).
The home ergometer is an effective aid for recovery from serious illness, that is, for rehabilitation. In this article you can learn more about these devices.
Nowadays, both public and private hospitals perform knee and hip replacement surgeries almost on an assembly line. Worn joints are replaced one after another. However, in a significant proportion of operations the expected level of improvement does not materialize. But why is that?
BEMER and magnetic field therapy (PEMF) are related but different. When the BEMER device is mentioned, you often hear that it uses "pulsed magnetic field therapy" – and that is essentially true. Still, anyone who digs a little deeper will quickly realise: BEMER is a specialized variant of the widely used pulsed magnetic field technology. Let’s see how they are similar and what makes BEMER different.
Until the beginning of the last century, the main obstacle to the development of surgery was the lack of a method that could provide pain relief and calm during longer operations. It is obviously impossible to perform precise surgery on a patient who is screaming in pain, convulsing and struggling. Modern anesthesiology — the science of anesthesia and sedation — provides all this. Anesthesia […]
