With over 200 million people suffering from diabetes worldwide, and counting, it’s fast becoming the #1 epidemic of modern times. A major cause of end-stage renal disease, preventable amputations and blindness, the efficacy of many alternative medicine treatments in managing diabetes has been explored.

While conventional medicine has prescriptions of endocrine disorder drugs for diabetes, alternative therapeutic approaches to its management include herbs, plant extracts and more.

The following are some naturals and alternative therapeutics that seem promising to scientists studying their effect on diabetes.

1. Fenugreek: This herb is commonly used for appetite loss, and to stimulate milk production in breastfeeding women. And a handful of studies have discovered that fenugreek may help in bringing down blood sugar levels in diabetes sufferers, that’s according to the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicines (NCCAM).

Some time back, the Diabetes UK referred to several herbs being studied, including momordica cymbalaria, gymnema sylvestre and swertia chirayita.

2. Momordica Cymbalaria Roots:This a cucumber-like vegetable was assessed by scientists for its effect on Type 2 diabetes control and their tests on diabetic rats showed an improved glucose tolerance.

3. Gymnema Sylvestre Herb: Originating from the Indian tropical forests, this herb when tested for its effects on the body’s ability to produce insulin, seemed to have a direct impact on the pancreatic insulin producing cells.

4. Swertia Chirayita Bark: Laboratory studies on the bark have found that some compounds separated from it appear to set off insulin production, in addition to enhancing its action.

5. Berberine: Chemically classified as a salt and found in the roots and barks of many plants, it has been documented in Chinese literature for having glucose lowering properties. According to Research Australia, the compound is indeed able to help lower blood sugar levels in animal models of diabetes.

6. Tai Chi Exercises: This isn’t quite a herb, nonetheless, according to the April 2008 issue of the British Journal of Sports Medicine, Tai Chi exercises can improve the management of type 2 diabetes via improving blood glucose levels.

Despite appearing promising, experts believe that a lot more research is needed to definitively establish some of these alternative medicines’ degree of efficacy.

Ultimately, physicians who add body transformation modalities such as minimally-invasive body shaping options or hCG for weight loss, and high income/low capital expense options such as medical grade chemical peels and physician directed skin care, will position themselves for growth in 2011.

The market for all minimally invasive procedures, from botox to ultrasound fat reduction will continue to out perform surgical options in 2011.  Dr. Jessica Krant, respected New York City dermatologist confirms that, “given the tight economy and a bit of a backlash against “extreme” trends in aesthetic procedures, I believe that in 2011, the new aesthetic trend will be toward how LITTLE someone can get done and achieve a refreshed, more youthful version of themselves.”  Consistent with this trend of “less is more,” the IAPAM (http://www.iapam.com) forecasts a growth in non-invasive treatments in all aesthetic medicine arenas for 2011.

Body Shaping Market Expands 

The aesthetic medicine industry will continue to see three types of body shaping equipment utilized, but laser-assisted lipolysis will be the most effective procedure with the most dramatic results. Physicians will see the non-invasive body shaping options increase. Industry experts predict that, “Zeltiq’s CoolSculpting treatments will stay strong,” and Dr. Debra Jaliman agrees.  “I have been using this innovative new technology in my practice since April, 2010. We use an external freezing device, so there is no pain or medication required. It is non-invasive, and 16 weeks later the patient has the effects of liposuction in the trunk area. We use it for love handles, backs, and belly fat.”  Dr. Charles Mok is also a proponent of this innovative new technology.  “By far the most exciting trend in aesthetic medicine is the FDA approval for the first ever non-invasive (non-surgical) device to permanently remove fat, CoolSculpt by Zeltiq.   

Another body shaping technology that is becoming popular is Sound Surgical’s ultrasound based VaserShape. California surgeon, Dr. Robert Troell, is impressed with the VaserShape.  “Of all of the minimally invasive lipo devices on the market, this is the only one that I’ve seen that works consistently and effectively, providing instant results in the first treatment.”  Dr. Gregory Buford, author of Beauty and the Business, agrees.  “Looking at ASAPS statistics, the big push in Aesthetic Medicine over the last ten years is progressively heading towards more and more less invasive treatments. Patients are simply looking for ways to look younger and look better with minimal downtime and discomfort. In the area of body contouring, although laser-assisted liposuction made a big splash a few years back, now that the non-invasive modalities have hit the market, patients are looking at devices like the Vaser to help them with those stubborn spots.”  

Anti-aging expert, Dr. Richard Baxter also champions high-intensity focused ultrasound technologies.  He too sees “a big trend for the next few years [being] high-intensity focused ultrasound for noninvasive body shaping and skin toning. For localized fat reduction, the HIFU technology [used by Vaser, Ultrashape and Liposonix] is intended to replace small-volume liposuction procedures with a nonsurgical alternative.”   While “presently fat-reduction HIFU systems are on the market in Europe and Asia but have not been cleared by the FDA for use in the U.S. (clinical trials were completed in 2010), comments Dr. Baxter, “2011 should be the year that “Ultrashape’s Countour and Medicis’ Liposonix ultrasound equipment will receive FDA approval,” forecasts Jeff Russell, Executive Director of the IAPAM, “and these technologies will capture a growing segment of the laser lipolysis market given that Zerona is still receiving mixed reviews from physicians and patients.”     

Medical Weight Loss Grows

People will continue to focus on their own health in 2011.  Due to increasing waistlines, “the U.S. faces its first sustained drop in life expectancy in the modern era,” the researchers say, and “adult obesity rates rose in 28 states over the past year” reports the annual , F as in Fat 2010 study.  However, research has shown that a key to long term weight loss is a high ‘initial weight loss’ by the patient. Therefore, hCG for weight loss is positioned to have strong growth in 2011.   First discovered by Dr. Simeons in 1954, as outlined in his manuscript, Pounds and Inches, hCG has been used for over 50 years as a weight loss aid.  hCG for weight management “is not a new procedure, but one that is going to explode in 2011″, predicts Jeff Russell.  Administrating hCG for weight loss requires a properly trained physician who has been certified in the protocols, since the long term success of doing an hCG weight loss program is only achieved by using pharmaceutical strength hCG, not homeopathic hCG which mainly contains water and alcohol.   Finally, non-invasive body shaping equipment will also be needed for those physicians offering medically supervised weight loss, since those rapid weight loss programs, like hCG usually results in loose skin and small pockets of fat that are perfect for this type of equipment.  This will be the leading equipment for non-surgically trained physicians. Dr. Oleg A. Davie, a board-certified physician with two offices in New York City, confirms,  “high definition liposculpture is the most sophisticated and aesthetically-advanced procedure that combines the newest technologies with state-of-the-art techniques. The results are a more contoured and more natural appearance, which regular liposuction lacks. This procedure is an excellent solution not only for people who feel themselves overweight and wish to slim their bodies, but for many healthy, rather fit individuals as well. You can go to gym and diet but still have trouble getting the desirable level of muscle definition. With high-def liposculpture it’s possible to selectively remove even small deposits of fat around specific muscle groups, enhance, reveal natural contours.” Laserlipo equipment, like Palomar’s LifeSculpt system, will be essential to a physician in a “post-weight loss,” body sculpting program.  

Cosmetic Injectable Choices Surge

2010 saw the addition of lidocaine to several dermal fillers, and in 2011 it is expected that 2 new options in the cosmetic injectable arena will be Xeomin, which received FDA approval for medical uses in 2010, and Mentor Corporation’s PurTox, which is completing its FDA approvals.  Moreover, Medicis’ Dysport will continue to see gains over Allergan’s Botox in 2011.   Also, Dr. Davie comments that, “given the variety of different dermal fillers available, more and more are being used, not just for ‘filling’, or in the correction of a specific line or fold, but for ‘face contouring’, volume correction, and a lifting effect, and not only a face lifting effect but some neck lift can be achieved by adding volume or “filling” particular parts of the face and upper neck.  There are a number of different names for these procedures can be used including “liquid lift,” “volume lift,” “non-surgical lift,” etc., but idea is the same: optimizing different parts of face and by this means, restoring the face to a natural, “like before” appearance.   Finally, experts like Dr. Davie suggest that, in connection with the trend to facial sculpting and adding volume,  “the new, “modified” fat transfer procedures that allow transfer of more viable fat cells and subsequently better and longer lasting results (for example, ViaFill).”  Equally, a new injectable option is the use of “PRP in cosmetic procedures. PRP – platelet rich plasma – the patient’s own fraction of blood. About 10 cc of blood drawn, then a fraction of concentrated platelets – blood cells rich in different growth factors – separated and re-injected into the patient’s face. Different techniques can be used and it can be added to fat to promote fat survival, used in combination with some dermal fillers to increase their longevity, used alone to stimulate the skin’s metabolic processes, etc. PRP has been used with success in different medical fields – ortho and sport medicine, wound healing, etc.”  

Demand for Professional Grade Skin Care Treatments Increases

When the economy started to dip, people started to eliminate more expensive, skin care products from their cabinet.  After several years, consumers are seeing the price for such a decision in the mirror. Industry professionals are going to see a trend toward more patients turning to professional skin care lines that contain active ingredients, which are only carried by physicians.  In addition, providing skin care with each aesthetic treatment, ensures that a physician’s patients get the best, long term results from their treatments, augmenting cosmetic injections and laser procedures.   Cosmeceuticals will be the cornerstones of professional grade skin care lines.  Products from industry leaders, like PCA Skin, which contain peptides, Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs), antioxidants and/or caffeine, will underpin the most successful physician-directed regiments.  

Chemical Peels and Microdermabrasion continue Strong Growth

Chemical peels and microdermabrasion were the two fastest growing minimally-invasive procedure last year according to the ASPS. As the baby boomer generation ages, industry experts in the IAPAM anticipate that demand for chemical peels will maintain, if not increase over 2011. With the economy still recovering, many of the more inexpensive, entry procedures, like chemical peels and microdermabrasion are becoming more popular.  Chemical peels are great anti-aging and pigmentation correction treatments for issue with which most baby boomers suffer.  Moreover, from a profitability perspective, physicians who can meet the facial rejuvenation needs of clients with chemical peels and medical mircordermabrasion will secure more consistent cash flows and profitability for their practices.  
 

New Technologies for Non-Surgical Face and Eye Rejuvenation  

The biggest recent advance in cosmetic eyelid treatments include the deep fractional lasers. Dr. Brent Kotlus comments that “dual depth resurfacing”, using “a combination of deep fractional ablation and superficial fractional ablation works to smooth lines and tighten skin around the eyes. In many cases, a patient can look like they had a blepharoplasty without surgery.  It treats problems in skin layers affected by photoaging- the mid to deep dermis and the superficial dermis at the same time.” “Patients can combine dual-depth resurfacing with botox and filler” for synergistic enhancements.
  Dr. Baxter also comments on facial skin lifting with High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU).  While not an alternative to a facelift, using ultrasound provides benefit to patients in their 40′s-50′s who have early signs of aging but are not ready for a surgical procedure. As the technologies mature and new applications are developed, HIFU holds the potential for fundamentally altering the approach to cosmetic medicine and surgery. HIFU can be used on any skin type and there is typically zero “down-time.”

Conclusion  

Dr. Buford suggests that 2011 might be a year where bundling multiple treatments produces the most profitable offerings.  ”In the area of facial rejuvenation, we are continually updating our treatment methods and combining various modalities. As a speaker at the recent Cosmetic Surgery Forum, [I found that many physicians] are combining facial injectables with laser resurfacing to achieve dramatic results.”  Dr. Buford believes that “the future lies within the synergy of combination treatments such as volumizers, lasers, and neuromodulators (such as Botox). Jeff Russell, Executive Director of the IAPAM concurs. “Physicians should consider adding both hCG for weight loss and body contouring services to their practices, to offer patients a complete and enduring body transformation experience.”  The last word goes to Dr. Buford, “being able to combine treatments, I see great things ahead.”

We know that not everyone has the physical and mental talents needed to become a professional athlete. So what’s the next best thing? Why, sports jobs that constantly bring you into contact with professional athletes, of course. And one of the most necessary of sports jobs is being a massage therapist for professional athletes.

Why become a massage therapist?

Though it does not carry the same prestige that a professional athlete may enjoy, being a sports massage therapist is still an important job that no sports team can do without. No serious professional athlete can survive the rigors of regular sports competition if he lacks the services of a good sports massage therapist.

Why is sports massage needed by athletes?

A sports massage therapist can aid athletes who are going through overcompensation and adaptation. Simply put, overcompensation is when the athlete has recently undergone stress overload (a usual occurrence in regular training and sports competition proper) so he overcompensates so that he will be prepared for the same or higher level of stress in the future. Adaptation is when the athlete is specially trained in coping with a certain type of stress. For example, a sprinter is used to running in short bursts over short distances so he needs to adapt to that.

A sports massage therapist will manipulate soft tissue (such as the hamstrings of a sprinter) prior to and after the exercise so that the athlete can experience less muscle tension and pain. Another benefit is that waste products can be eliminated from the body of the athlete, especially via the lymphatic system because of massage. Delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) is lessened through massage as well. In the end, treatment via sports massage allows the athlete to gain better flexibility and posture.

Where can sports massage therapists be employed?

Since sports massage is needed by both recreational and professional athletes, sports jobs like that of sports massage therapists are offered in both recreational and professional sports venues. You can find work in local gyms and community sports centers if you target recreational athletes for your service. If you favor working with professional athletes, you might want to apply with teams affiliated with professional sports organizations. If you get really, really lucky (or just have good networking skills) you might be able to find work with a particular professional sports athlete as part of his personal care team.

What other services does a massage therapist provide?

Aside from massage, a massage therapist might also help the professional athlete with the treatment and management of sports injuries, exercise rehabilitation and therapy, and helping plan the sports nutrition program of the professional athlete.

The advances in the 20th century as far as sports medicine is concerned have helped foster demand for sports massage therapists as one of the more valued sports jobs. Of course, you may need to train for this position before you can be considered by a professional sports organization, but it promises to be a great type of job (if you enjoy working with athletes.)

Internal medicine jobs tend to attract a diverse mix of students; those who like to solve all of the puzzles that affect our health — confining their practice to adults. Whether a new patient seeks care for a single, straightforward problem, or for complex, multi-condition problems, practitioners aim for overall optimal care from head-to-toe, beginning-to-end. Many adults, in fact, consider an internist their primary care provider.

Because this area of health care requires a deep understanding of screenings and tests; prescribing appropriate medication; and determining if specialized procedures are necessary, an internist is often called “the doctor’s doctor. Internal medicine practitioners must enjoy combining the interaction of preventive education with long-term treatment. These interest in investigating the body, in modern practice, often results in general practice internists to seek further study in a sub-specialty, thereby limiting their work to the problems of one organ system or area of medical knowledge.

Although the phrase “internal medicine” suggests intense study of organs and blood and other unseen physical parts, this type of doctor treats the body inside and out, from kidney problems to asthma to skin cancer. This expertise runs a wide gamut of knowledge, excluding surgery. To practice internal medicine, after earning a bachelor’s degree, students attend medical school for four years, then complete a residency. Residency periods vary from country to country, but tend to last approximately three years. Once qualified to practice — either in a hospital setting or in a private clinic — an internist can pursue board certification, which among other things, increases the ability to be hired and boost patient confidence.

]]>

One of the attractions for those who pursue internal medicine jobs is the necessity to truly interact with people. Because the patient’s entire condition takes priority, internists make time to interview the people who seek help. Care is comprehensive, and even when other medical specialties are involved, the internist will coordinate the patient’s situation — sometimes for life.

Jobs in the this field are changing rapidly. The American Board of Internal Medicine currently recognizes 13 sub-specialties, including: adolescent medicine; allergy and immunology; cardiology (heart); endocrinology (diabetes and other diseases that involve the glands; gastroenterology (colon and intestinal tract); geriatrics (elderly people’s care); hematology (blood); infectious disease; nephrology (kidneys); oncology (cancer); pulmonary (lungs); rheumatology (arthritis) and sports medicine. Members of the Board are currently considering adding new sub-specialties, as health care issues such as AIDS and other similar conditions emerge globally.

Whether you develop breathing problems, suffer from continual stomach aches, suddenly notice extreme pain in your joints, or have any combination of these kinds of health complaints, you’ll most likely seek the advice of an internist. These Jacks-and-Jills of all medical trades have the background and sincere intent to figure out what parts of your medical mysteries can be solved — opening the door to a healthier and happier life.

As a result in the scientific studies, taking Tongkat Ali gives extra muscles to the body particularly with men. As stated in the magazine British Journal of Sport Medicine they affirmed that a double-blind placebo experiment was done with it; half of the group was given the Tongkat Ali extract which gave them an additional 5% and no improvement was gained to the other half of the group that didn’t use it. Gaining five percent in just five weeks is huge.

Similar to each alternative medicines and therapies, there are statements that are false and true concerning the legality has this increasingly better-known substitute cure.

The term alternative therapy, as used in the modern Western world, encompasses any healing practice “that does not fall within the realm of conventional therapy”. Commonly cited examples include naturopathy [natural health Therapy], chiropractice, herbalism, traditional Chinese medicine, Unani, Ayurveda, meditation, yoga, biofeedback, hypnosis, homeopathy, acupuncture, and diet-based therapies, in addition to a range of other practices. It is frequently grouped with complementary medicine, which generally refers to the same interventions when used in conjunction with mainstream techniques, under the umbrella term complementary and alternative medicine, or CAM. Some significant researchers in alternative therapy/medicine oppose this grouping, preferring to emphasize differences of approach, but nevertheless use the term CAM, which has become standard.

Complementary and (http://www.worldwidehealth.com)alternative medicine) (CAM) is a broad domain of resources that encompasses health systems, modalities, and practices and their accompanying theories and beliefs, other than those intrinsic to the dominant health system of a particular society or culture in a given historical period.

Natural health Therapy also known as Naturopathy (also known as naturopathic medicine or natural medicine) is an eclectic alternative medical system that focuses on natural remedies and the body’s vital ability to heal and maintain itself. Naturopathic philosophy favors a holistic approach and minimal use of surgery and drugs. Naturopathy comprises many different treatment modalities of varying degrees of acceptance by the medical community; diet and lifestyle advice may be substantially similar to that offered by non-naturopaths, and acupuncture may help reduce pain in some cases, but homeopathy is often characterized as pseudoscience or quackery.

Natural health news states that Naturopathy has its origins in the Nature Cure movement of Europe.

- Conditions regularly treated by the Naturopath include:

Menstrual problems

Adverse menopause symptoms

Fibroids

Polycystic ovary syndrome

Uterine conditions

IBS

Candida

Crohn’s

Bowel irregularity

Headache and migraines

- The particular modalities utilized by an individual naturopath varies with training and scope of practice. The demonstrated efficacy and scientific rationale also varies. These include:

Acupuncture

Applied kinesiology

Botanical medicine

Chelation therapy for atherosclerosis

colonic enemas

The not-so-good performance by the British contingent at the Wimbledon championships may be linked to a recent study made by researchers from the Royal National Orthopedic Hospital which suggested that high-level tennis can be detrimental to the spine of young people. The team scanned the spines of 33 elite adolescent tennis players, male and female, who trained at the National Tennis Centre, the club where you can find Britain’s most promising young tennis players.  Though none of the youths have reported back pain, their backs, however, told a different story.
Serious spinal abnormalities were found to afflict 28 players, a high 85%, ranging from cysts to fractures. Twenty three had an early stage of joint disease, while 13 were found to have herniated discs or desiccated, shriveled discs, a condition usually common in septuagenarians but much less prevalent in teenagers.  According to the authors of the study, tennis requires more frequent, repetitive, and rapid rotation from the lumbar spine than most other sports.  Playing it during a period of “growth spurt” is particularly detrimental.
Various studies, on the other hand, revealed that back problems don’t afflict just teenage tennis players. At least 1/3 of all competitive football players will hurt their lower backs during play and may experience lower back pain, as will a third of gymnasts and 25% of serious rowers. About 40% of divers are likely to develop a spinal stress fracture, and many cyclists will experience constant, grinding back pain while riding.  Severe lower back problems were reported by another study in 6 out of 7 twirling-ribbon rhythmic gymnasts.  Topping the list of sports that can cause problems in the lower back and neck is golf with 90% injuries to professional golfers, and almost 80% missing at least one professional tournament because of back pain.
Experts believe that in order to protect and build a better back, one needs to have a solid core. “It’s not just the abdominal area, as many people think,” says Vijay Vad, a sports medicine specialist at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City and a back-care adviser to the PGA Tour and the professional men’s tennis circuit.  Vad said that, “…to really include all of the elements that move and stabilize the spine, you have to go from your knees to your nipples. That’s the core.”  
The core muscle system is made up of the muscles, ligaments and tendons which provide rigging for the spine. The big muscles in front of the spine, as well as those at the sides are specifically important in stabilizing the back. These are the rectus, transverse and oblique abdominals. Same with the less familiar intertransversi, interspinalis and multifidus muscles, which connect to the larger abdominal group but are usually ignored in magazine articles about washboard abs. Both muscle groups must be strong and supple in order to keep the spine stable.
The most crucial element of core health is endurance since it keeps the stabilizing muscles and connective tissues going through a long workout or game. “You have to have enough muscular endurance to be able to maintain spinal stability throughout the entire length of an activity,” says Michael Higgins, the director of athletic-training education at Towson University in Maryland and the author of several prominent academic articles about back injuries in athletes. “Without endurance, what you often see is that near the end of a game, the muscles can’t quite control the movement of the spine adequately anymore, ” he said.  No matter what sports you’re into, if your core can’t keep up, your back is sure to suffer the consequence.

Tip – Drink Warm salt water when doing sports When exercise, you’d best carry a mug, if not feel thirsty, it’s best to drink for 20 minutes every twelve to balance the loss of body perspiration to prevent dehydration caused to the human body injury. When you’re on a treadmill bolted dozens of minutes or a hearty to play basketball, the water to quench their thirst and fatigue became a natural choice. In the wide variety of drinks, iced drinks and sweetened beverages, especially the young men. But many people have this experience: to drink a lot of water, but still does not quench thirst, and even become more thirst, and some also appeared elevated body temperature, muscle cramps and other symptoms. “In fact, before and after exercise and hydration during exercise is very knowledgeable, and drink will help keep the body fluids of a balance, to ensure the health and safety of health.” World authority on the field of Sports Medicine, American College of Sports Medicine will exercise the principle of pay summarized as follows: First, 2 hours before exercise drink about 500 ml of boiled water. “This is because hydration before exercise can improve the body’s thermal regulation, reduce the movement of the heart rate. 2 hours and pay in advance to give sufficient time for metabolism of the kidney, the body fluid balance and osmotic pressure adjusted to the optimum condition, have sufficient time to the excess water from the body. ” Second, the movement process, if more than 1 hour, you should drink salt water, water with 0.11-0.15 grams of salt per liter, and temperature control in the 15-22 degrees Celsius. “The movement of a large number of sweats, sweat contains a lot of ion composition, ion content at this time no drink boiled water, it will not achieve additional effects. The salt water is able to replenish the loss of ions, to prevent hyponatremia psychosis not respond. “He suggested that, to exercise, the best carry a mug, a good proportion to red light salt, if not feel thirsty, it’s best to exercise 20 minutes per drink twelve in order to balance body sweat loss and avoid dehydration caused damage to the human body. Third, after exercise, drink electrolyte drinks that contain sodium, potassium, chloride, magnesium, calcium, phosphorus and other minerals in the drinks. Or can the ratio of 1:15 add some sugar in boiled water for drinking. “Sugar added to the water is to maintain a certain blood glucose levels and delay fatigue occurs, thus ensuring the health of fitness.”

At least a few years of their education focuses on learning how to diagnose, prevent, and treat diseases,. Put simply, internists are also known as doctors of internal medicine or doctors for adults. They are also known as general internists.

Internists can deal with any problems that patients bring, no matter how simple or complex, how rare or common. They know how to solve complex problems and they can handle chronic conditions and situations where more than one sickness strikes at one time. They also educate people and teach them how to prevent problems of the ears, eyes, skin, reproductive organs, and nervous system. Internal medicine doctors take care of patients in nursing homes, hospitals, offices, and clinics.

Many of these specialists focus on general medicine, but some also specialize in other additional areas of medicine like cardiology, endocrinology, hematology, pulmonology, adolescent medicine, critical care medicine, geriatric medicine, hospital medicine, sleep medicine, sports medicine, and others.
