Guys please help me, my server is Linux based, I am running Apache. I am on a 4g network.. Trying to upload a video file of 200mb takes up to 2 hrs . I am totally confused |
Being a youth comes with a lot of uncertainties accompanied by sparks of curiosity in diverse areas of life, in this article we are going to be discussing just one of those areas…. FERTILITY, and specifically for the males. Now I have this young friend of mine who is always paranoid about issues pertaining to his chances of getting a lady pregnant, according to him he gets paranoid simply because of his lifestyle. The big question is, is he supposed to be that way just because of his type of lifestyle? Guess we will find out in this article. Fertility has to with the degree of being fertile, in other words your chances of getting a female pregnant which is usually measured by the quality of the Spermatozoa in the testicles of male human beings. Scientists have made it clear that there are certain factors that can negatively affect these sperms which are supposedly oriented to fertilize the ovaries of a fertile female to establish a state of pregnancy. these include the following Smoking cigarettes, Alcohol Intake, Lack of Sleep, intense cycling. SMOKING AND HOW IT AFFECTS YOUR FERTILITY Now you may ask “how can smoking affect my fertility? I thought the only risk was cancer? Smoking has been shown to have a detrimental effect on various parameters of semen analysis. A cross-sectional analysis showed that cigarette smokers have lower sperm volumes, sperm counts and percentage of motile sperm compared to men who did not smoke, Furthermore it was also suggested that the relationship between smoking and sperm concentration was dose-dependent, therefore men who smoked > 20 cigarettes per day experienced a 19% reduction in sperm concentration compared to nonsmokers, even after controlling for age, recent fevers, and duration of abstinence as well as disease in reproductive organs, Pretty interesting right? It was concluded that adult smoking resulted in moderate impairment of semen quality. So Yeah! Smoking cigarettes can affect your fertility in a negative way, so if you are going to be smoking cigarettes, have the decency to know the degree of risk that follows. ALCOHOL INTAKE Most people find it hard to believe the fact that alcohol can affect male fertility and this is very understandable because for many of us, alcohol is synonymous with relaxing, and for crying out loud, who doesn’t take alcohol? It plays a central role in our social activities. alcohol and how it affects your fertility alcohol and how it affects your fertility But while alcohol can be a pleasurable way to relax and relieve stress, when consumed in large amounts it can threaten a man`s chances of fatherhood as well as his sexual performance. There are a lot of studies out there to prove that alcohol can be extremely harmful to the male reproductive health, it is toxic to the testicles and affects the all-important cells that are involved in making sperm and producing the male hormone testosterone and affects hormone production at the level of the hypothalamus and pituitary gland in the brain thereby upsetting the delicate balance for normal, healthy sperm production. If you want to be father a child, then you have to check your alcohol drinking habits, drinking every day or binge drinking is definitely a practice to be avoided. LACK OF SLEEP AND HOW IT AFFECTS YOUR FERTILITY The benefits of a good sleep irrespective of age cannot be overemphasized, sleep not only impacts your desire for sex, but also affects your fertility. According to a Danish study published in the American journal of Epidemiology, sleep deprivation lowers sperm count in men. Researchers found that, of the study`s 953 subject, those who were sleep deprived had lower-quality semen than those who were not. This occurs because most hormone secretion is dictated by the circadian clock, your body`s natural cycle. If your sleep cycle is interrupted, your body won’t release as many reproductive hormone, which affects overall fertility There are a lot of reasons why people choose to intentionally deprive themselves pf sleep, students want to study overnight, young factory workers plan to do an overtime for those whose operations have no time restrictions so they end up not having a good night rest, I hope this article gives you a second thought about issues similar to this. INTENSE CYCLING AND HOW IT AFFECTS YOUR FERTILITY Cycling is an excellent form of cardio exercise, it helps burn calories which is evident when you find yourself sweating after cycling for a while, it impacts core strength and renders overall fitness. INTENSE CYCLING There has been a misunderstanding on whether or not cycling affects fertility which made many to overreact and stop cycling, not that their fears are unwarranted but taking up cycling as a recreational activity or exercise don’t have an impact on man`s sperm health in a big way. However if you indulge in a long-distance cycling it can in a way affect sperm quality, the Clinical journal of Sports Medicine in 2015 took into account the effects of long-term low-to-intensive cycling training on semen parameters in male road cyclists, the conclusion of their research was that it was seen that semen volume, sperm motility, sperm morphology, sperm concentration and sperm counts were low after the intense training got over and it remained low even 30 days after the training got over. This gives a hint that intense cycling can affect the sperms in one way or the order. Since the exercise has an effect on the reproductive health of a man, sufficient rest should be taken after each session to help the testicles recover from the strains of the previous training session. So yeah! My good friend I mentioned in the beginning of this article had a good reason to be paranoid on issues about fertility simply because of his type of lifestyle. P. S.

Apple cider vinegar(ACV)? The answer to this question depends on what the doctor tells you. As it is known that apple cider vinegar interferes with some kinds of drugs you may be taking while pregnant. So with regards to the question it's best to consult your doctor to find out whether you can take it during this period Nevertheless apple cider vinegar has slot of health benefits ranging from being a good source of anti-oxidants to the control of blood sugar. There are 2 types of Apple cider vinegar 1.Pasteurized 2.Unpasteuruzed *Pasteurized ACV* - this type of apple cider vinegar has gone through rigorous filtration process in order to remove harmful bacteria like (E. coli) *Unpasteurized ACV* — This type of apple cider vinegar has not gone through any filtration process like the pasteurized type. It has slot of harmful bacteria in it. Pregnant women are advised to stay away from this type as it contains harmful bacteria that can cause damage to them and their unborn child. —The reason is because when you are pregnant your body's immunity reduces, So if you take the unpasteurized ACV,alot of harmful bacteria will get into your body. *Unpasteurized ACV* is suspected to be responsible for alot of miscarriages and still births all around the world. Stay healthy always . Best wishes from thehealthymail team� |

leukaemia once or twice in your lifetime. This post will attempt to clear up facts about the condition. Imagine you own a farm,there is barley, some pea and vegetables in your farm. The barley grows up fast big occupying most of the space, leaving the pea and the veggies little or no space,less sunlight and nutrients. The peas and vegetables look scrawny and unattractive while the barley though grows big but most of them not producing any barley. The above example explain how leukemia affects your blood cells. The barley is your white blood cells, the pea represents your red blood cells and the veggies represent your platelets What is leukemia ? This is a cancer affecting your blood and bone marrow. The bone marrow produces blood cells normally but with leukemia the bone marrow produces mostly more white blood cells than necessary in the blood, thus taking up most of the space in the blood and leaving little space for the red blood cells and platelets . This extra white blood cells produced by the bone marrow are not usually mature and therefore cannot protect the body against infections, there are often not enough red blood cells and white blood cells to carry out their functions (movement of oxygen throughout the body and clothing of blood ). Stastistics show that leukemia affects more males than females ,affecting children below 15 and adults above 55. How do you know you have leukemia? Common symptoms include 1.Bone pain 2.Recurring infections 3.Loss of appetite 4.Profuse bleeding due to poor blood clotting 5.Unexplained weight-loss 6.Fever 7.Head aches,seizures(when the CNS is under attack) 8.Excessive sweating 9.Fatigue and weakness 10.Anaemia 11.Tiny red spots on the skin If you experience any of these sign and symptoms reverently, it may be wise to visit your GP What causes leukemia? There is no consensus on what causes leukemia but there are certain risk factors (genetic and environmental) that might increase your chances of being diagnosed with leukemia . Though am not quite sure you could prevent leukemia ,here is a list of risk factors Risk Factors Smoking This alone is responsible for 15 types of cancer in adults,.leukemia included source:cancerresearchuk.org (Smoking =leukemia)? Cigarette smoke contains known carcinogens(benzene and some radioactive matter) are absorbed by the lungs spread to the body through the bloodstream. Heredity If your family has a history of cancer, then you, my friend are not safe from leukemia. Albeit most occurrences of leukemia are not through inherited genes. Genetic Disorders Disorders like down syndrome -due to genetic mutations at birth cause childhood leukemia. Surprisingly children with down syndrome have a higher survival rate than normal children affected by this illness. Blood disorders People with MDS(Myelodysplasia) have an abnormally low blood count, which often time may take a worse turn to leukemia https://previews.123rf.com/images/breathofriver/breathofriver1501/breathofriver150100001/35059446-caution-biohazard-sign-vector-illustration.jpg Exposure to high levels of Radiation Unlike leukemia by genetic or blood disorder, this causal agent is not biological.

Curing leukemia Thanks to breakthroughs in various treatment methods,there has been an increasing amount of leukemia survivors. Treatment options depend mostly on factors such as : 1.Age 2.Present Health Status 3.Type of leukemia 4.Stage of cancer (whether it has spread or not) Common Methods of Treatment Chemotherapy This is the most common treatment option. Chemicals(drugs) are used to kill the cancer. The drugs may be administered orally or intravenously and the patient is kept in a sterile private room in order to reduce chances of getting infected by other agents since the immune system usually gets compromised. Anti biotics are also provided to treat or prevent infections in addition to other medications that take care of the side effects of the treatment. Side Effects of Chemo includes Hair loss Vomiting Mouth sores Head aches Infertility in adults (ovaries and testes are damaged) Radiotherapy This method unlike chemo involves the use of high energy radiations to destroy the cancer, thus stopping further growth by targeting a particularly infected area or the whole body. This method is also a precursor treatment stage of the stem cell transplant Stem Cell Transplantb This treatment is very risky and quite expensive. It is the process of replacing unhealthy nine marrow with healthy ones, after destroying most of the unhealthy bone marrow and cancer cells through radiotherapy. The new stem cell after at least 2weeks should grow into marrows that would in turn produce healthy blood cells ,if the host body accepts the stem cells. The patient also takes additional medication to prevent donor stem cell rejection. Biological or immune therapy Living organisms, substances (antibodies, cytokines) produced by the living organisms or a synthetic equivalent of the substances are introduced to the body in order to improve the immune system, bIn the process enabling the immune system to specifically recognize and destroy cancer cells. It's side effects include rashes, headaches,tiredness etc. Targeted therapy Drugs are used to attack the cancer cells .The cancer cells are usually vulnerable to the drug because of a certain properties (proteins )of the cancer. ALL and CML may be treated through this method. Clinical trials These are studies for the purpose of testing possible treatment that may or may not work. The patient is at liberty to discuss the treatment with the doctor to find out if they are eligible for the trial or which trial may be more suitable for the patient. Coping with Leukemia It's usually difficult for patients ,their family ,friends and loved ones find hard to accept a diagnosis. This in turn makes treatment and management of the disease difficult.
