Health / How Regular Intake Of Water Has Saved Many From Unnecessary Ailments & Diseases! by DukeR4(m): 12:43pm On Jul 27, 2016
It is still not common in Nigeria today to drink water immediately after waking up every morning, eventhough scientists have proven that we need a minimum of 3 litres of water each day. I publish below a description of the usage of water for my readers. For old and serious diseases as well as modern illnesses the water treatment had been found successful by a Japanese medical society as a 100% cure for the following diseases:
Headache, body ache, heart system, arthritis, fast heart beat, epilepsy, excess fatness, bronchitis asthma, TB, meningitis, kidney and urine diseases, vomiting, gastritis, diarrhea, piles, diabetes, constipation, all eye diseases, womb, cancer and menstrual disorders, ear nose and throat diseases.
How does it work...
1. As you wake up in the morning before brushing teeth, drink 4 glass cup of water
2. Brush and clean the mouth but do not eat or drink anything for the next 45 minute
3. After 45 minutes you may eat and drink as normal.
4. After 15 minutes of breakfast, lunch and dinner do not eat or drink anything for 2 hours
5. Those who are old or sick and are unable to drink 4 glasses of water at the beginning may commence by taking little amount of water and gradually increase it to 4 glasses per day.
6. The above method of treatment will most diseases of the sick and others can enjoy a healthy life.
The following list gives the number of days of treatment required to cure/control/reduce main diseases:
1. High Blood Pressure (30 days)
2. Gastric (10 days)
3. Diabetes (30 days)
4. Constipation (10 days)
5. Cancer (180 days)
6. TB (90 days)
7. Arthritis patients should follow the above treatment only for 3 days in the 1st week, and from 2nd week onwards – daily..
This treatment method has no side effects, however at the commencement of treatment you may have to urinate a few times.
It is better if we continue this and make this procedure as a routine work in our life. Drink Water and Stay healthy and Active.
This makes sense .. The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals not cold water. Maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating!!! Nothing to lose but everything to gain...
For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you.
It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion.
Once this 'sludge' reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine.
Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal!

Health / The Continuous Cry Of The Dental Therapist! by DukeR4(m): 2:17pm On Jul 26, 2016
There are several universities offering Dentistry in Nigeria and Dentistry has different specialties. Dental Therapy, Dental Technology and Dental Health Technicians/nurses are other courses which are integral part of the profession. Without these specialties, dentistry is not complete.
These courses painfully are not studied in Nigerian universities but rather they are studied in Polytechnics and Colleges of Health and the students graduate with O.N.D and H.N.D except in F.U.T.O where Dental Technology is studied. Efforts has been made for years to upgrade a school like the Federal School of dental technology and therapy to a degree awarding institution to no avail. Dental therapists and dental technologists from the above mentioned institution are not equal with those of FUTO just because of certifications and not Training. Dental surgery only has the surgical training as the difference from Dental therapy training.
Most of the courses are the same (radiography, periodontics, anesthesiology, pharmacology, orthodontics, oral pathology, anatomy, oral physiology, embryology, etc). The pain is that there is no way for one to further/continue in dental surgery under the Nigerian Education System. Even Dental Technologists with HND cannot do PGD in that same course in FUTO instead, they are demanded to write JAMB and start again from level 100 to do the same course. Direct Entry into any of the universities offering dentistry requires 'A'Level certificate holders, medical Lab scientists, pharmacy, and other medically related courses (to start from second year-200level) and MBBS graduates to start from fourth year-400 level.
There is no room for Dental therapists/
technologists/technicians for Direct Entry into Dental surgery despite that there is no much difference in the courses. The quantum of professional discrimination on Dental Technologists and Therapists with HND is too much and unbearable. The education system of Nigeria needs a rebranding change. There is too much certificate discrepancies in the labour market. Dentistry is not ran as it should like other fields of study. If health professionals are without value in their own land especially when their desire *Please let's share and give it the widest publicity!*

There is too much certificate discrepancies in the labour market. Dentistry is not ran as it should like other fields of study. If health professionals are without value in their own land especially when their desire is to meet with demands of the patients, then tell me why citizens won't travel to comfort countries to get what they want if they are rich enough though!
We need intervention in our university education system. (Attached): Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria states that Nigeria needs about 270, 000 Doctors but the complaint is that only about 35, 000 of them produced are practising in Nigeria... This is a good observation but it will not make any change until professional dichotomy and discrimination is broken and removed entirely.
Imagine a situation whereby a dental therapist or dental technologist is not eligible for direct entry to study dental surgery in Nigerian universities instead they accept other medically related courses and A’Level result holders are allowed for Direct Entry.
The question now is "is dental therapy/ technology not medically related?” The politics of Nigeria is wicked, it sits on the truth denying the clear unavoidable and in doubtable fact that denta therapy/ technology are 90% related to dental surgery. Even the licensed practices are not allowed to be practiced by d.therapists/ technologists in Nigerian Hospitals because d.surgeons feel we compete with them which is a mere jealousy. They politically sit on the bill stating that D.therapists/ technologists should be awarded B.Tech after graduation; what a hatred. President Buhari should bring his change into the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria and the Entire Educational System in Nigeria. I pity those that are sidelined in other medical and related professions. Please intervene.
