Smoking only cause Lung cancers only?
Smoking only causes Lung cancer only?
Findings show that smoking does not only raise lung cancer, but it also has a great effect on your thyroid gland. The effects of cigarette smoking on the thyroid gland have been studied for years. However, the effect of smoking on thyroid function and size is still controversial. Therefore, a recent research has been done and concluded about smoking is associated with an increased risk of developing clinically overt thyroid disease. Furthermore, the data suggested that cumulative cigarette consumption is a risk factor, most pronounced in autoimmune thyroid disease.

Sleeping Problems and Health Tips
Do you have these symptoms?
a.. Difficulty waking up in the morning
b.. Inability to concentrate
c.. Falling asleep during classes
d.. Feelings of moodiness and even depression
If you have, then it means that you are not getting enough sleeps.
Research shows that adults need at least 6 hours of sleep while teenagers need at least 9 hours of sleep.
Tips on sleeping
a.. Set a regular bedtime. Going to bed at the same time each night signals to your body that it's time to sleep. Waking up at the same time every day can also help establish sleep patterns. So try to stick to your sleep schedule even on weekends. Don't go to sleep more than an hour later or wake up more than 2 to 3 hours later than you do during the week.
b.. Exercise regularly. Try not to exercise right before bed, though, as it can rev you up and make it harder to fall asleep. Many sleep experts believe that exercising 5 or 6 hours before bedtime (in late afternoon) may actually help a person sleep.
c.. Avoid stimulants. Don't drink beverages with caffeine, such as soda and coffee, after 4 PM. Nicotine is also a stimulant, so quitting smoking may help you sleep better. And drinking alcohol in the evening can also cause a person to be restless and wake up during the night.
d.. Relax your mind. Avoid violent, scary, or action movies or television shows right before bed - anything that might set your mind and heart racing. Reading books with involved or active plots may also keep you from falling or staying asleep.
e.. Unwind by keeping the lights low. Light signals the brain that it's time to wake up. Staying away from bright lights (including computer screens!), as well as meditating or listening to soothing music, can help your body relax.
f.. Don't nap too much. Naps of more than 30 minutes during the day may keep you from falling asleep later.
g.. Create the right sleeping environment. Studies show that people sleep best in a dark room that is slightly on the cool side. Close your blinds or curtains (and make sure they're heavy enough to block out light) and turn down the thermostat in your room (pile on extra blankets or wear PJs if you're cold). Lots of noise can be a sleep turnoff, too.
h.. Wake up with bright light. Bright light in the morning signals to your body that it's time to get going.

Thyroid Problems Relations To Your Weight Problems
Thyroid Problems Relations To Your Weight Problems.
Thyroid problem do have effects on our weight problems. It is one of the most common symptoms of thyroid disease as a matter of fact. Usually the case for hyperthyroid is the person consistently lose weight no matter how much the person eat whereas for hypothyroid, people usually gain weight even though they tried to minimise their eating diet.
People have been trying so many ways to cure these symptoms like in some common cases below.
Case 1: Losing weight - Dieting with Slimming Pills
Lose some weight through using a combination of dieting and slimming pills. Continue taking 2 pills per day to maintain weight. Follow a strict diet - soupy dishes, vegetables and fruits - every day with no carbohydrates. Only 2 times per week she allows herself to indulge in a lot more food which includes cakes, pastries and snacks.
Is there any side effect and can the erratic diet be harmful in the long term?
Comments: Most slimming pills work by reducing energy intake - either by reducing appetite or blocking the absorption of dietary fat. Prolonged use of slimming pills is not recommended because, among other things, they may have an adverse effect on the heart (Take note: Heart disease is still the No. 2 killer, after cancer). To maintain your weight, you should continue to monitor your food intake and embark on an exercise programme. Preventing weight gain after substantial weight loss probably requires about 60 to 90 minutes of moderate intensity physical activity per day. Adding resistance training to your exercise plan will help preserve muscle mass. Do consult your doctor before starting any exercise programme.

Case 2: Gaining Weight Exercise, Stable Diet with High Metabolism
23 year old guy-170cm tall but weighs only 50kg, have not gained weight in the past eight years despite a height increase of more than 10cm. Exercise (swimming), eat a lot during mealtimes, taking weight-gain supplements but unsuccessful. Did a blood test include thyroid but find no problems.
Could it be due to high metabolism/ is it due to any health problems?
Comments: There are many reasons people may find it difficult to gain weight. Genetics can play a role but individual personalities and the environment can be contributing factors. There are others who lose their appetite for various reasons, including physical or psychological illnesses, chronic pain, depression, emotional stress and side effects from drugs. A comprehensive assessment by your doctor should be able to explain why you are underweight and what you can do to achieve a healthy weight.
