What is Dengue Fever?

Rainy season is here again. The time of year when people love to sleep, eat foods that warm us especially “bulalo” which is my favorite by the way, or hang out with friends on a cup of coffee. But on the other hand, it is also the time of year when mosquitoes reproduce very rapidly from open and non flowing waters around us. We all know the harm it could bring and one of this is DENGUE HEMORRHAGIC FEVER which is very fatal if treated on the late stage of the disease. So, it is very important for us to arm with a little knowledge about this kind of disease especially people from the tropical area.

Dengue hemorrhagic fever is an acute infectious disease manifested initially with fever.

Disease-Causing Viruses Among Humans: HIV

This is the FIRST in a series of brief expositions about disease-causing viruses among humans.

Because everyone and anyone can be infected by deadly viruses, it is best to be educated and enlightened about these deadly diseases as well as what type of virus could have been causing it, how to know when one is affected and how long does the infection take. These information is especially important in determining how to avoid, prevent or treat these diseases.

HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS (HIV)

Considered as the most widely known type of virus, the HIV is the one that causes AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome) or the severe damage in the most effective “built-in” defense mechanism of the human body, the immune system.To date, About 40 million people in the world are living with HIV or AIDS. This estimate includes 37 million adults and 2.5 million children.

Are You Prepared for These Household Threats?

boy in gas mask

Okey… that title may sound way too alarming or scary for ordinary people like you and me… going about our ways, trying to earn a living for our families and loved ones. But many are not aware or would totally disregard the hidden threats the moment they step out of their homes.

Worst… these threats may have entered their homes already…

We’re not talking about the crazy jeepney or bus driver plying our everyday routes, trying to convert their 4-wheeled vehicles into flying machines. No… we’re talking about the type and quality of air that we let into our lungs every time we breathe.

Figures for asthma cases and respiratory problems among children continue to rise. Not only that, but several people are continually suffering from bouts of allergic rhinitis, allergies of all types, eczema and other skin diseases, and growing cases of anaphylaxis that some doctors can’t even identify… much less cure.

The rapid influenza diagnostic test (RIDT) for swine-origin 2009 A(H1N1) influenza virus (S-OIV) in children may be most useful in young children who present early after symptom onset, according to the results of a large pediatric cohort study reported online in Pediatrics.

“Data on the test performance of the RIDT for S-OIV have been limited,” write Michael Hawkes, MD, from the University of Toronto in Ontario, Canada, and colleagues. “The few available reports in mixed adult-pediatric populations have shown variable sensitivity between 11% and 69%…. The rapidly evolving pandemic of novel 2009 [S-OIV] demands that accurate and practical diagnostics be urgently evaluated for their potential clinical utility.”

Alfa HFI Counters Deadly Obesity Virus

fat shadow man

Obesity or simply the state of exceeding the ideal body weight by 100 lbs. for males, or 80 lbs. for females, is associated with a higher risk of disease, which leads to early death. Apparently, with the numbers rising to approximately 350 million obese people around the world, wherein about 500, 000 of them are Filipinos; it is alarming to note that some of these patients are very young and need surgical intervention.

Interestingly, while many of us are trying to take pleasure in an unhealthy diet and in a lifestyle with less or no exercise, these patients are beginning to feel the pains and emotional regrets of being obese. Largely affected are women who suffer ridicule and discrimination that significantly affect their self-confidence and integrity. Studies have shown that obese people also experience complications like diabetes, heart problems, osteoarthritis, stroke, cancers, weak stamina, and chronic depression, among others.

It is well-known that increased food intake and decreased physical activity eventually result in obesity. In the recent years, however, scientific research discovered another possible reason; they identified an epidemic known as the Human Adenovirus 36 (Ad-36) or the Obesity Virus, which can be caught as easily as a common cold from other people’s coughs, sneezes and dirty hands.

Dr. Nikhil Dhurandhar, an associate professor at the Pennington Biomedical Research Center, in Lousiana, said the parasitic virus, causes sniffles and sore throats as it infects the lungs then whisks around the body forcing fat cells to become fatter and multiply at a tremendous rate. In their experiments, Ad-36 has been shown to cause obesity in chicken, mice and monkey. In one test, Ad-36 infected 30% of obese humans but only 11% of thinner humans and these subjects are heavier compared with their Ad36-negative counterparts.

Ad-36 was first described in 1980, when it was originally isolated from a German girl with diabetes. Afterwards, prevalence of obesity increased by 30% between 1980 and 1990, and by 61% between 1990 and 2000; with no indication that this numbers are lessening.

Understanding the alarming growth of the obese population worldwide, health advocate Mr. Hans Palacios and Civic Leader for Public Awareness and Education Mr. Jake Ortiz indulge in efforts to spread a public awareness campaign about obesity and the Ad-36 virus, at DWIZ every Sunday at 10-11:00 AM, in partnership with www.thebignm.com - the only network management website for Filipinos.

Obesity virus attacks the body’s immune system, and interferes with its normal functions. This in turn makes the body more vulnerable to other deadly viruses like influenza, typhoid, dengue, hepatitis, hanta virus, chicken pox, herpes, gastroenteritis, swine flu (A H1N1), and HIV/AIDS. Researchers reported some 50 adenovirus strains that cause respiratory and eye infections, and various vaccines for these are not yet developed.

Backed by 15 years of study and clinical tests, Alfa HFI is a breakthrough discovery and was created by scientists as the nature’s most powerful broad spectrum antiviral solution to address this concern. It is an all-natural, pure and safe dietary supplement. It is refined and formulated from the powerful plant and animal bio-molecules found in ancient deposits of decomposed organic matter, which are humus layers of the earth’s soil that play an important role in the transfer of minerals within the living organism.

Alfa HFI works by penetrating the invading ultramicroscopic viruses and preventing their attachment into healthy cells through agents called Viral Fusion Inhibitors, which block and wrap the viruses in a coating substance. If the virus cannot attach to the cell’s DNA, it cannot survive and reproduce. Alfa HFi also has the amazing Alert Mode Ability that signals the immune system to flush the viruses out.

Alfa HFi also works both as preventive and immune system supportive and will be a valuable support for people seeking relief from nutritional imbalances, immune system disorders and viral diseases. It has anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antibiotic, anti-allergic, anti-arthritic, anti-ulcerogenic, immuno-modulatory and other health benefis.

As a potent chelator and detoxifier, it attracts and attaches itself to toxic heavy metals and other toxins and removes them from the body as waste. It contains trace amounts of 70 mineral phyto-nutrients that give more energy. It increases polysaccharide sugars and combats the spread of free radicals in the body. It improves stress resistance, appetite, and the ability to focus during strenuous activities.

Consumption of Alfa HFI immediately restores and supercharges the body’s resistance to disease and infection by helping the body in manufacturing necessary glycoproteins within. It also perks up the gastrointestinal tract as pro-biotic, strengthens the joints and bones, provides amino acids and electrolytes, and boosts oxygen for the red blood cells.

Enzacta prides itself on having Alfa HFI Humic/Fuvic Acid Supplement as a product of their state-of-the-art technology and special proprietary process called BioReady Nutrients© (BRNs).  BRNs are nutritional complexes extracted, concentrated and naturally-enhanced for better bio-availability.

An Introduction to Viral Fusion Inhibitors

virus

Early year 2009, alert was raised in almost all parts of the globe as Swine flu rapidly spread among humans. The flu was caused by a new virus strain Influenza A subtype H1N1. Origin of the virus, according to a report from the New York Times, probably developed in pigs in Asia and then carried by human to America. This flu virus is highly contagious though its virulence is classified as mild. However, it caused panic among nations when it established a second wave during the cold since the mortality rates went up. While there was face mask shortage during its first attack, today, there is a shortage in vaccines.

Vaccines were developed since the 1770s. These were used as biological preparations for a disease, classically employed to prevent small pox and other types of flu. To prevent a certain type of disease, a vaccine – which is a milder version of the virus causing the disease – is injected to a person early on. This alerts and strengthens the immune system.

Though vaccines are acceptable, many still debates about its safety. Actually, in 1976, a swine flu vaccine was already developed and was used to immunize nearly the entire US population. However, according to Center of Disease Control and Prevention, it had been found to be linked with the development of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) – an autoimmune disorder affecting the peripheral nervous system, usually triggered by an acute infectious process.

The latest issue about swine flu vaccines today is that the US stock for this immunizer is running dry. The priority recipients of the vaccines are children and pregnant women only. Healthy individuals infected by the virus are advised to take other forms of medications.

Other options to prevent or control swine flu include the medication Oseltamivir Phosphate and the most popular brand for it is the Tamiflu. It acts by interfering with the production and release of virus from cells that line the respiratory tract. This may slow the spread of the infection within the airways and lungs.

INTRODUCING: Viral Fusion Inhibitors

As an additional anti-viral solution to address the Swine flu hitch, a group of scientists developed a product which was derived from a naturally occurring substance, the Alfa HFi.

Against viruses, Alfa HFi works by encapsulating the invader with a coating carried out by agents called Viral Fusion Inhibitors. Because of the coating, viruses will not be able to penetrate a healthy cell and reproduce from it. What’s more is that Alfa HFi exhibits an Alert Mode Ability wherein the immune system is given a signal about the invader prompting it to dispatch the cause of the disease.

Alfa HFi is a very small but powerful naturally occurring water-soluble substance which has the ability to transform the molecular structure of water enabling it to better carry dissolve and transport elements to or from the cell. Thus, cells are effectively provided with nutrients while waste products are carried away from it. Furthermore, this Alfa HFi-activated water molecules help in neutralizing toxins and invaders.

Nutritional experts suggest that the breakthrough discovery of the Hfi substance is a vitally important nutrient, together with vitamins and minerals. This helps the body increase its resistance to colds and flu, and infections.

Moreover, Alfa HFi aids in supercharging the immune system; cleansing, neutralizing and removal of toxins and the purging of parasites, pathogens and viruses.
